Hello! Sorry if Zack and Angeal don't show up too much. They will, though.

Chapter 2: Butterfly

Aya couldn't beleive how large the room was. A giant screen covered the wall in front of her, glowing a light blue color. A large U shaped table was set up in front of the screen, chairs and computers lining the top. Two people were talking to each other, a man and a woman. The woman wore a long grey dress and had red eyes and long blonde hair. The man wore a blue coat and white pants. He had violet eyes and blond hair, and wore glasses. The two seemed to be arguing.

"How could you not help those people?" The woman asked.

"It's not my place." The man anwsered.

Yunnie cleared her throat, picking up Aya and setting the little girl on her hip. The two adults turned and looked over at them. The woman was first to speak. "Yunnie. I'm glad you came." Yunnie nodded, "I have a report for you, Mamacita." Mamacita nodded back and turned to the man next to her. "I'm sorry, Director Lazard, but I'll have to cut this meeting short." He cleared his throat and said, "Yes, well, I'll speak with you later." As he walked past, Aya saw him share a glare with Yunnie.

As soon as he left, Yunnie turned to Mamacita and said, "What was that all about?" Mamacita sighed and waved the question away. "So, how many survivors did you find?"

"Only four. Two boys and girls."

"Including Izzy, Ian, and Mint, that's seven in existance as of now."

"Yeah, I found Aya here right as I was coming back."

Mamacita looked at Aya and smiled warmly. "Oh hello there." Aya said nothing. Yunnie set her down and nudged her towards Mamacita. "Don't worry." Aya walked timidly to the older woman. Mamacita tilted Aya's head up, looking into her eyes. "Blue-white eyes. Yep, she's Pulsian alright," Mamacita looked up at Yunnie, "Miyuki told me that you said you felt the presence of one of us. You think it's her?" Yunnie nodded. "I do."

The woman nodded and looked down at Aya. "How old are you child?" Aya shook her head slightly. She didn't understand Gaian. Yunnie's voice sounded so pretty and nice, Aya had a feeling that she could be trusted. Mamacita thought for a moment. Then, she asked, "Yu go chaji?" How old are you? Aya looked at the floor. "Tune." Ten. Mamacita nodded and held out her hand. "Gogu naji keru atmosu dreni? Tosa mi hutaru ni Gaian mare." Would you like to live here? You will learn Gaian and have a family. Aya nodded.

Yunnie watched as Mamacita spoke in Pulsian. Yunnie didn't know much of the language, but she knew that tune ment ten. Was Aya really that young? Would her body be able to hold the red mako at that age? Yunnie had the surgery when she was thirteen, and Izzy was the youngest to get the injections at the age of tweleve. And even if she did survive the mako, the tattoes were different. They hurt like hell the first few days, pratically paralyzing the host for a good twenty four hours. Yunnie herself was bed ridden for a week. If it weren't for Ian and her demon abilities, Yunnie would've gone crazy.

Yunnie spoke up. "Um, is it a good idea to let her have the injections at such a young age?" Mamacita nodded. "Yes, It would be dangerous. We'd have to wait a few months to find her natural abilities and weaknesses, and train her in basic combat." Mamacita wrote something down on a sticky note and handed it to Yunnie. "Find Kk and give this to her." Yunnie nodded and took Aya's hand, "C'mon Aya, lets go. Bye Mamacita!"

"Bye."

(Main Lounge)

Yunnie walked up to Mint. "Hey Mint, do you know where Kk is?" Mint shook her head, "Last I saw her, she was with Ian in the Shooting Range.

(Shooting Range)

As they walked through the bullet-proof doors, they saw a woman with long red hair that came down to her collar bone and looked feathery and light. She was balancing a rough looking shotgun on her shoulder, focusing on the target across the room. Yunnie cleared her throat. The woman looked up. Like the others, she had bright red eyes. "Ian, do you know where Kk is?" Ian lowered the gun. "Nope, sorry. Was I suppose to?"

(Kitchen)

"You wanna know where Kk is?"

Izzy waved the egg beater around, thinking. "Hmmm, I'm not sure. Normally she's in the Shooting Range or on the SOLDIER floor." Yunnie sighed. "Well thanks anyway, Iz." As they walked out, Izzy said, "Don't worry! Today's snack is Kk's favorite, Chocolate Cream Pie!"

(SOLDIER Floor)

Aya yawned. Yunnie bent down and picked her up. "Don't worry, Aya! We'll find her. Then you can sleep." Yunnie spotted a man with dark brown hair and a large Buster sword strapped to his back. She ran up to him, "Excuse me, sir!" The man turned to face her. "Yes?"

"I'm looking for my friend Kk. She has black hair and red eyes. Have you seen her?"

The man thought for a moment. "Red eyes? I may have seen a girl like that back in the Training Room. She was training with my student while I ran a quick errand. I'm on my way back right now." Yunnie's eyes widened. Training? Uh-oh. Kk took training very serious, and was the strongest in the Corps. She could crush any SOLDIER, exept mabey Sephiroth. Yunnie bolted down the hallway, Aya in her arms and the man behind her.

Opening the doors to the Training Room, Yunnie quickly set Aya down and looked through the glass window. Sure enough, Kk was in there, fighting a young SOLDIER. Yunnie sighed and ran into the room.

"Hey!"

The two continued to fight.

Yunnie frowned and walked inbetween them. As they raced forward, Yunnie focused some of her mako into her hands and, right as Kk threw a punch, grabbed the older girl's wrist and tossed her across the room. She did the same to the SOLDIER. Both crashed to the floor.

"Alright, that's enough, both of you!" The black haired girl sat up, "He started it!" The boy scoffed. "Oh, what? She's the one who thought she could beat me!"

"I did beat you!"

"Did not!"

The man walked in. "Zack. Is that how you treat a lady?" Zack's eyes widened. "A-Angeal!" He pointed to Kk, "She's hardly a lady! No way a girl could be that strong!" Angeal crossed his arms. "Zack, I saw this girl," He gestured to Yunnie, "pitch you halfway across the room. Really, Zack, have an open mind." Kk snorted. Yunnie walked over and helped her up. "Mamacita said to give to you." Kk read the sticky note. "Aya, huh? Cool name."

Aya was sitting in the floor, half-asleep, when Yunnie walked in and picked her up. Kk raised an eyebrow. "Isn't she a little too old to be held?" Yunnie shrugged, "She's tired and scared. And besides, it's not like she weighs alot." Kk just shook her head and looked at the girl. Aya had short light blonde hair, and blue-white eyes. Pulsian.

(Living Room; Corps Floor)

The living room wasn't much. A large white sofa sat a few feet from a large screen T.V, controllers and game systems sitting infront of the screen. On one wall was a large computer, photos covering the wall beside it.

Several girls were sitting on the sofa, two more laying in the floor. Yunnie walked in, carrying a sleeping Aya, Kk walking behind her. Ian looked up from her spott on the floor. "Damn, girl," She said, looking at the cutts and bruises on Kk, "Did ya get in a fight with a Behemoth and lose?" Kk glared at her. "Shut up, Ian." The red head sat up and stretched, "Hey, I was only kidding. Who pissed you off?" Kk just walked down the hall. A moment later a door was slammed. A girl with brown hair stood up from the couch and laughed. "I think it was you, Ian!"

"Yeah, yeah, keep laughing, Trishe."

Yunnie just shook her head and took Aya to her room. After tucking Aya into the bed, Yunnie yawned and walked back into the living room.
