"Here." The warrior tossed him a heart shaped locket rusted slightly at the edges, yet still intact. Sephiroth regarded the shiny object now in his outstretched hands. He looked up to see Raiden sitting with his knees crossed and plucking at the fire with a thin branch. A faint red line could be seen around his neck, indicating the locket's previous owner only a few seconds ago.
Everyone stared. Even Genesis' cackling ceased, thank goodness, although that was soon to be ignored, for it was Inuyasha who was the first to recover and break the silence.
"You... wear a locket; around your neck? Since when?" Next was Kagome, who made sure to silence the hanyo with a resounding thump, making several people nearby chuckle.
"Inuyasha! When will you ever learn to mind your own business?" Groggily the hanyo rubbed his head painfully and winced when he reached the bruised mark. Raiden smiled and shook his head for a moment before answering Inuyasha's question.
"Nice guess, hanyo, but let me be the one to let you know this first: this locket is of no importance to me, therefore our silver-haired friend over here can have it if he wants." The warrior replied, gesturing at Sephiroth as he referred to him.
Once more as Raiden resumed tending to the only source of light the whole group had before dawn, everyone started chatting again, due to Sephiroth's regret, seeing that a certain Tifa Lockhart had caught his eye and that Genesis had to make fun of him for it while Angeal stood by silently trying hard not to laugh and Zack bounced happily around the place like he always did, but more hyperactively this time, the Silver General suspected, since it was his cousin who they were talking about.
Sephiroth gritted his teeth angrily and tried not to growl at his friends, some of who were now making faces at him and pointing at the unsuspecting woman beside him (who was gazing at the sky and not paying attention to anyone else at the time), especially Genesis. This cannot be happening, the Silver General thought as he glowered at his redhead friend making fun of him at the moment.
A/N: And I'm done! This is shorter than last time, I know, but I promise that the next time I update, it will be a little longer than this one, though I can't exactly make any good promises, can't I? Kidding, just getting a little caught up watching K-dramas, movies, etc. and stuff like that. It is during the March Break, after all. Until next time!
