Chapter 2:

Leonard and JJ arrived at Leonard's home the area was barely outside of the wastelands. Leonard got off the motorcycle as did the young man, JJ stated, "You didn't lie, about being away from city limits this place is out of contact with people, you have your own personal piece of Midgar here." The young black haired man looked around.

"Well, this is much more lively than the ruins, come on we'll get you something to eat and settled in, you can use my room while you are staying, I really prefer the couch so make yourself at home," Leonard stated while he unlocked the door to his home opening the door allowing JJ to go in first.

The younger man walked into the home with Leonard behind him, Leonard walked past him and said, "I can warm us up some food from Tifa, she has Cloud bring something over every morning, I never could understand women. Mainly those who could probably karate kick a man into a wall, Tifa is something else."

Leonard walked over to the kitchen getting into the refrigerator getting a plate of various foods placing them on the counter. JJ asked, "Can I just get mine now?"

Leonard looked at him getting the plates and set them on the table, "Here, you go ahead, I'm not hungry just now. I'll eat later."

JJ set down at the table as Leonard handed him silverware and walked over to the couch, JJ looked at him and asked, "You don't get many visitors here do you?"

Leonard looked at him, "No, just two maybe the occasional three."

"I can't imagine why? You're just the most conversational person I've met."

JJ stated sarcasm ran from his lips.

Leonard looked at the wall, "So I've been told, but I'm a boring person. I'll try to perk up some no promises."

JJ shrugged shoving bread into his mouth. The meal was silent Leonard sat at the table picking at some bread he looked at the clock on the wall standing to his feet, "I'm going to get ready for bed, do what you want. I have to get up early in the morning. My father is stopping by I have to call him about some things."

JJ looked around the dark home and sighed, " Right, and your sleeping in this dark room by choice, no lights it's not funny."

Leonard looked at him and stated, "I wasn't making any jokes, I like the darkness, I'll get your room ready." Leonard walked from the room leaving JJ to sigh again.

Looking at the empty plates he stretched and stood up walking into the sitting room, then upstairs hearing gunshots behind a closed door.
