Chapter one – He knows
I do not own final fantasy 7
"So Cloud, what were you doing wondering around by your self," Zack questioned me tilting his head slightly. I turned my head around to look towards Zack. I breathed out heavily.
"I was going home," I told Zack He gave me an odd look.
"We both know that's a lie." he stated. I sighed and turned to face Zack. "Fine, I went looking for something" I said, "and I got lost." We sat in silence for a while.
"Can I ask you something" Zack questioned me, I nodded. "Are you a vampire." I stood there in shock, how did he know. "It's kind of obvious you know spike, you have pale skin and your not very good at hiding your fangs, ya know. Also it seems you don't have a mate as well," he stated.
My cheeks burned up, "H-how did you know," I stuttered. He smiled and got closer to me.
"You need to work on hiding your sent Cloudy boy," he breathed in my ear, "also I'm a vampire to, so you wouldn't be able to hide it from me." I pushed Zack away from me.
"Get away from me," I managed to say, "I just want to go home now." Zack noticed my shaking body.
"Don't worry I won't hurt you," he said sweetly trying to calm me down. "Where is it where you live, I could drop you off there." Zack said. I don't know if I could trust this guy but I sense that he won't do any harm to me.
"I live near the centre of the Shinra building and it's the first house near the right," I said to Zack. He let a whistle in shock.
"Wow, your family must be rich to live there," he said in amazement, whilst opening the door. I walked out of the house and Zack followed and led me to his motorbike, it was a shiny black bike with matching black seats.
"Yeah, Sephiroth looks after me, he's kind of like my father. Ever since he found me when I was a child he has been looking after me ever since." I said to Zack as he gave me a helmet. He froze after I told him about Sephiroth.
"You mean to tell me that Sephiroth, the most powerful vampire in the whole of Midgar is your guardian." he said in disbelief. I simply nodded. Zack sighed and got onto the bike and patted the seat from behind him. I took the seat and put the helmet on I wrapped my arms around his waist. "Are you ready," I heard Zack say. I nodded and with that we went.

We finally arrived to my house. I took of the helmet and got of the bike. Zack walked me over to the front door. Before I could say thanks to Zack or open the door, the door suddenly opened to reveal a very scary looking Sephiroth. "What were you doing out so late," Sephiroth asked me. I stood there speechless. Sephiroth sniffed the air and growled. He grabbed me and threw me inside.
"Zack fair, son of Angeal "Sephiroth coldly said to himself, "what were you doing with Cloud,"he questioned Zack.
"I-I was bringing Cloud home sir" Zack stuttered, "he collapsed in the middle of the street and so I found him and brought him to my place and then I dropped him here." Zack stated. Sephiroth looked at him suspiciously.
"Thank you for brining him home, you can leave now," Sephiroth said to Zack, but then he leant towards Zack and whispered something in his ear. I couldn't hear what he said, but Zacks' eyes had gone wide and with that he nodded and waved at me and then he left.
Sephiroth closed the door and walked up t me, "now Cloud let's have a little talk in my office about what happened," Sephiroth said as he brushed past me. I followed him up to his office. I took a seat opposite him and his cold green eyes stared at me.
"Do you know how dangerous it is out there" Sephiroth shouted at me. I didn't want to answer him, I've never seen him look so angry at me before. "I-I'm – ," I was cut of by Sephiroths' hand touching my cheek. "I was worried Cloud, you don't know what could be out there and especially when you're near your time," he told me.
"I know, I'm sorry," I whispered into his hand. He smiled, but it then turned into a frown.
"Cloud, your friend told me that you passed out earlier. Do you remember why you passed out or how," Sephiroth asked me.
"Kind of, I remember walking down the street and some guy was there, but then he disappeared and then I was walking back home and I felt dizzy and collapsed. That's where I met Zack, he found me an brought me back to his place and that's it," I told him..I heard Sephiroth murmur something under his breath, but didn't catch what it was.
"You can go now Cloud," Sephiroth softly said. I got up and left the room. I walked towards where my room was and laid down on the bed. Today sure was eventful and with that I slowly drift of to sleep.
But Cloud was unaware of the dark shadow perched outside of his window.
