Dinner

AN: I own nothing in this story. Please R&R.

A knock came at the door about an hour later and Reno jolted up out of bed, Tifa waking up at the loud noise and running towards the door on all fours. Reno ran after her and managed to catch her before she made any noise. Quickly taking her to the bedroom he got her dressed as best he could, hoping their guests wouldn't notice.

"Reno stop it, I can dress myself!" Tifa yelled.

"Teef you're still under the side effects of that Materia; heck I'm surprised you can still talk." Reno said, glad he was still in his presentable Turk uniform. He then ran up to the door and answered it, a smile on his face. "Hey guys are you ready for dinner?" Yuffie put her hands on her hips, her gaze boring into Reno.

"We were ready fifteen minutes ago Turkey. You weren't doing anything perverted with Tifa were you?" Just then Tifa came around behind the ninja and lowered her nose to Yuffie's backside, sniffing loudly.

"Hey Yuffie you smell nice!" She said in a very happy voice. The ninja went wide eyed at her friend's disturbing canine behavior.

"What in the hell has Reno done to you?" Yuffie asked.

"I actually did it to myself, there's this Materia and…" But whatever Tifa was going to say was cut off by a blur of green and brown that ran in the house, searching every nook and cranny for the Materia. Finding the odd colored magic orb in the bedroom, Yuffie picked it up and carried it with her back out to her friends.

"This thing doesn't look so dangerous." Yuffie then absorbed the Materia into her arm and waved. "See nothing's wrong."

"Yuffie, maybe you shouldn't have done that." Vincent said calmly. Before his girlfriend could reply a flash of light covered her form and when it dissipated only her clothes remained with a squirming bundle in the middle of her shirt.

"Oh boy…" Reno said. Vincent instantly turned towards Reno, his eyes set in a glare.

"What happened to Yuffie?" Just then a tiny golden retriever puppy wiggled its way out from under Yuffie's shirt. Vincent's jaw dropped. "Y-Y-Yuffie?" The dog barked and nodded its little head. Tifa then came around and licked Yuffie's now furry forehead. Vincent then fainted and Reno caught him, sighing heavily.

"Reno, do you think these side effects are ever going to end?" Tifa asked, sitting on her haunches and tongue panting.

"I don't know babe but now I have to take care of you, the ninja brat, and pray that Vincent doesn't kill me when he wakes up."

"I'll say it again; you were stupid for bringing this Materia home."

"Hey I was kind of ordered to get rid of it and I was about to when someone who will remain unmentioned decided to cast it on herself." Reno said. Tifa barked angrily in response.


Vincent opened his eyes and hoped he had just had a nightmare. Yuffie was staring at him, her brown eyes wide and curious. Smiling the tiniest fraction at his girlfriend, the gunslinger sat up. Yuffie instantly licked his cheek, luckily Reno had managed to get her dressed or else Vincent might have fainted again.

"Sorry about that Vinnie, I can't control these canine urges of mine. Tifa's in the same boat and she's been like this for about 3 hours now so it could last a while." Vincent glanced over and saw Tifa lying on the couch on her back, her butt wiggling back and forth as if she had a tail. Reno was rubbing her belly and her left leg was moving really fast.

"Just go with it Vincent. Nothing else we can do right now anyway." Reno said. Tifa then pounced on him and licked his face again and leaving a bit of saliva on his mouth as well.

"Hey Vinnie, could you give me a belly rub too?" Yuffie whined, rolling onto her back.

A knock then sounded at the door. Tifa and Yuffie instantly ran towards it, barking furiously. Reno motioned for Vincent to grab and hide them which the gunslinger somehow managed to do, taking them into the bedroom. Reno then answered the door and saw Cloud on the other side.

"Hey Reno, just wanted to stop by. Is Tifa around by chance?" Cloud was holding a box in his hands with air holes cut in it.

"Yeah she is…but um she's really sick." Reno said, thinking up the quickest excuse he could.

"Well then this will cheer her up." Cloud said, pushing his way past Reno and into the house. "Is she in the bedroom?" Cloud asked when he heard a loud cry of pain emanating from behind the closed door on the left. But before Reno could answer him the spiky haired savior opened the bedroom door. He stared wide eyed at the scene before him. Tifa and Yuffie had a pair of underwear held between their teeth and both women were growling at each other, trying to wrest their prize from the other's mouth. Vincent was on the bed, his eyes wide and hands covering up his backside.

"What in the hell is going on?!" Cloud exclaimed. At his voice both female Avalanche members turned towards him. They then started barking loudly at the box in Cloud's hands from which a hissing noise could be heard. Before anything could be done both spell addled women crashed into the Ex Solider sending the box flying through the air where the lid came undone and a black cat came shooting out. Tifa and Yuffie chased after the cat, barking loudly and butts wiggling, happy at the chase.

"Okay Spiky, here's what happened…Tifa cast an unknown Materia spell on herself turning her into a puppy. Luckily there's a time limit on the spell and she returned to her normal human form. Unfortunately she is now acting more like a dog then she did when she was really a dog, which is a side effect or so I believe. The little princess and Valentine stopped by for dinner and the ninja cast the Materia on herself. And now here we are with two spell induced women." Reno said, hands in his pockets.

"And what do you propose we do?" Cloud asked.

"We catch them before they ruin this apartment, you take that cat away, and then we'll wait it out. It's bound to end sometime."

"Alright, we'll do it your way for now but if they don't change back you can say goodbye to your two best friends and I don't mean Rude and Tseng." Cloud said his eyes narrowing.


After an hour and a half of barking, biting, and cursing Reno, Cloud, and Vincent had managed to calm the women down and luckily Vincent could wear Reno's pants so he wasn't embarrassed so much. Cloud had returned to his house with the cat while Vincent and Reno were left with their canine acting lovers.

"So what did Cloud want?" Tifa asked, running around in circles after her butt.

"He wanted to check on you and give you a cat as a gift and he blames me for this whole mess but the coup de grace was when he threatened to castrate me if you're not back to normal soon." Reno said. Tifa stopped running around in circles and leapt beside him on the couch. She laid her head on his lap and buried her nose in his side. Petting her head softly, Reno let out a sigh and Tifa licked him on the lips.

"Don't look so depressed Re. This was partly my fault and it's actually kind of fun." She said, smiling at the petting she was receiving.

"I just hope this ends soon and you're yourself again." Just then Tifa got up and rushed towards the bathroom. "Tifa what are you doing?"

Vincent meanwhile was playing fetch with Yuffie. Bringing the ball back to her lover, butt wagging fiercely, she dropped the saliva covered thing at his side.

"Vinnie I should really listen to you more huh?" Yuffie said, yawning loudly.

"I would say yes but if you did that would be out of character." Vincent said.

"So wasn't I the cutest puppy you ever saw?" The ninja said, smiling.

"You were adorable but I much prefer your normal hyper and klutzy self." Yuffie bit at his hand playfully and Vincent patted her head.

"I am not a klutz!" Yuffie yelled loudly.

"Yes you are but now you're a klutz acting like a dog." Vincent joked with a straight face. Yuffie huffed and trotted away on all fours, butt held high in the air like a proud poodle.

Tifa currently had her tongue in the toilet bowl lapping at the water inside. Her backside was wagging but her face wore an expression of disgust.

"Tifa that is disgusting!"

"How do you think this tastes Reno? I can't help acting like this so just deal with it!" Suddenly Tifa felt her canine urges diminishing. Lifting her head out of the toilet bowl she then stood on two legs and hugged Reno tightly. "I'm back to normal!" Tifa said, kissing Reno deep on the lips in her excitement. Reno broke apart first, his expression one of horror.

"Teef you just kissed me after licking the toilet!" Reno yelled.

"I'm sorry I was caught up in the moment." The couple then washed their mouths out with plenty of mouth wash. Tifa then walked into the room and checked on Yuffie. The ninja princess was running after her butt, obviously still under the effects of the materia.

"Sorry about this Vincent." Tifa said.

"It's okay Tifa, it was Yuffie's own fault for not listening to me."

"Vinnie could you give me another belly rub please?" Yuffie asked, looking at Vincent with puppy dog eyes. Vincent nodded and went to fulfill his girlfriend's desire.


After Yuffie returned to normal a few hours later, she and Vincent left. Tifa then took the Materia that had caused this whole mess and crushed it between her fingers. She then turned towards Reno and noticed his forlorn expression.

"I'm sorry for everything that happened today Tifa." Tifa hugged Reno once more and kissed him on the cheek.

"I forgive you Reno now stop beating yourself up about this okay?" Reno nodded and Tifa went to the fridge, looking for some food. "Good now you start cooking some dinner alright? I'm starving!" Reno chuckled and started taking out some pots and pans.

A week later Cloud again stopped by, this time with nothing to give to Tifa except a hug and a slight smile.

"I'm glad you're back to normal." Cloud said.

"It wasn't that bad Cloud."

"If you say so." Cloud said. Just then a cat walked by the open door and Tifa barked at it loudly. Crimson stained her features and Cloud then turned to Reno, his gaze furious and his hand on his sword hilt.

"Reno remember what I told you… but Cloud was cut off by Tifa's body slamming into his. She started growling at him then, her mouth bared back and her teeth showing. She was on all fours on top of his body and she stared into his face with blazing eyes full of rage.

"Leave now and I won't leave you with stitches." Tifa said calmly. Cloud nodded and left as fast as he could. Tifa stood up on her two feet and walked towards Reno, smiling at him.

"Um…why did you do that?" Reno asked, confusion on his face.

"He was threatening you and no one's going to do that while I'm around." Tifa stated plainly.

"But you probably just ruined your friendship with Chocobo Head." Tifa laughed lightly and hugged him close to her.

"He'll get over it." Tifa then licked Reno on the side of the face and her butt wagged back and forth, signifying her happiness.

"I think you got cursed thanks to that Materia." Reno commented. Tifa rolled her eyes but licked him again. She wasn't really worried that she would ever start acting normal again, and besides Reno gave the best belly rubs, the barmaid thought, butt wagging once more as she pressed closer to her lover.
