The remake of

The Reality Paradox

By Vincent 'The Vampire' Valentine

Chapter 2: Some changes in my life

I stepped into class and took my seat with Yuffie at the front of the room.

The classroom was painted blood red with pictures of different weapons and people performing magic. On weapon really caught my eye when I walked in on the first day, The Death Penalty, know to of been used by a man called Lord Rin during the defeat of King Kefka VI.

Our Tutor walked into the room, she was in her early 20s, she had long blond hair and wore a red dress.

'Welcome to your new year at Balamb school of Combat and Magic, I am Instructor Quistis Trepe'

'Hello' we all said.

'Hmm, seems we have a new student, please introduce yourself' she said to me.

'Well, my name is Vincent Valentine; I have been kicked out of my old school, Galbadia, for something I didn't do'

'What did you do?' a boy called Cloud asked.

Cloud wore purple overalls and a brown belt; he also had very strange blond hair that stuck up like lightening

'I didn't do anything' I said getting angry.

'Then what were you accused of' said another boy called Squall.

Squall had a leather jacket on which was miles to small for him, he also had two red belts forming an 'X' shape, between his eyes was a scar that ran down to his nose.

'The headmaster thought I was going to blow up the school, I did hate the school but I was never going to blow it up'

'Ok Vincent, you can sit down know' said Quistis 'and open 'Status Effects and their cures' on page 10 'Poison's'. But can anyone tell me what effect does a Tonberry use?'

I raised my hand.

'Death and that goes for any forbiddons'

'Excellent, how did you know that?' asked Quistis with great curiosity.

'Last year, in Galbadia, we went on a mission to find a summon called Odin' I said 'and we encountered tonberry's and forbiddons, those tonberry's killed most of the people who went, it was an attack called "Chefs Knife"'

'You know more about them than I do' said Quistis in awe.

School went on all about poisons and antidotes. When we left I went home. I changed into my red cape that covers the bottom half of my face, my gold boots, my gold arm and my black tracksuit like cloths.

Yuffie called around to my house at 5pm and we started watching FF: Last Order. Yuffie was still wearing her green top and brown shorts. I liked her that way.

During the movie she wouldn't stop asking me what I got her for her birthday, I wouldn't tell her.

'You are mean' she said jokingly.

I laughed at the comment.

'So tell me' began Yuffie 'are you really a vampire?'

'No, who told you that'

'Cloud told Squall who told Sephiroth who told Selphie who told Wakka that told Tifa that told me that asked you' she said, panting for breath.

'I don't like Cloud, he's a jerk' I said

'A spiky haired one' replied Yuffie.

'You said it'

When we finished watching the sphere at 7:15 Yuffie went home.

'Happy Birthday' I said at the door.

Yuffie threw her arms around me and hugged me.

'Thanks for letting watch the sphere, it meant a lot to me'

'Err ok' I said nervously 'I'll see you tomorrow, bye'

'Bye' she said as she walked off.

I watched her walking and I saw a few guys standing beside an ally wall, they pointed at Yuffie and after a minute walked off. I got a tiny bit worried. I took out my 'Peacemaker' pistol that I got for my 16th birthday, and went outside.

I turned a corner and ran up the road to a bigger ally than the guys who pointed at Yuffie. I walked in.

The air was cold, and then I could hear a voice.

'HELP!' it shouted.

'Yuffie?' I called back.

I walked further in, and then it turned into a sprint. I turned another corner.

I found 6 guys attacking Yuffie, her cloths were ripped and her nose was bleeding. I got mad. The attackers pulled out guns.

A small pain occurred in my right arm; I turned around to see a man with scientist cloths injecting something that looked like green goo into me. Then he disappeared.

Concentrating on the bad guys, I pulled out my gun and fired at them, one remained. He pulled out a knife and took Yuffie hostage. I had a headache, one of the worst ever, I dropped my gun, holding my head I screamed, and the pain was unbearable. I couldn't control my body but I saw myself attacking the guy. I had supernatural strength. I saw myself impale the guy to the wall. He was dead and blood was all over me.

A mirror lay on the ground, walking over to it; I looked in it to see I have become a horrid ware wolf like demon. The pain struck me again and I returned to my normal body.

'Stay away from me' I said to Yuffie.

'But what was that thing you turned into?' she asked, her voice more worried than ever.

'I don't know, but whatever it is, I can't control it'

I escorted Yuffie home and bade her goodnight.

As I walked home I felt uneasy.

'Hello Vincent' said a monstrous voice.

'Who's there?' I asked almost panicking.

'Oh, I think you know who I am, remember earlier tonight?'

'You are that monster?'

'Monster? I prefer demon, I am one of 'the 3 guardians of Chaos''

'Who or what is Chaos, and where are the other 2 'guardians'?'

'Chaos is what looked over mankind for 1000000 millenniums; he is neither light nor darkness. The other 2 guardians are Hell Masker and Death Gigas, and I am Galion Beast'

'How come you reside within me now, if you are the guardian of Chaos, your job is to guard Chaos'

'I cannot leave you until you have defeated the one who made me what I am, his name is Hojo, if you defeat him, I will leave you'

Hojo, where have I heard that name before? I kept asking myself.

'You can stay within me but do not change my appearance when I am at school, or around Yuffie, or anyone for that matter, and I promise you I will kill Hojo, do we have a deal?' I offered

'Yes, but even as a demon I do get hungry, I will take in half the food you eat'

'Well, I will need your help when I'm fighting Hojo so ok, I'm sure we can be good friends, only, can other people hear you or am I the only one?'

'Other people can hear me, so I'm guessing I better be quiet?'

'Indeed, if my instructor hears you during class I'd get flunked and we don't want that, do we?'

'I wouldn't mind'

'DO WE?' I shouted

'Yes, ok, ok, be quiet'
