Chapter III: A Shoulder to Cry On
Natalie and Yazoo walked the snowy streets of Edge, neither spoke a word nor shared a glance. The silver-haired brother on his guard in case the young woman in front of him tried to attack him, but her presence was that of a calm kitten instead of that of a lioness stalking her prey waiting for the perfect moment to strike; though her fluid movements didn't speak what her presence was sending to him. She moved like a panther in the night, majestic and cunning,like Kadaj had, fearless and full of authority for his age.
A familiar home brought the young TURK to a halt,causing the long-haired remnant to do the same, she spoke,placing a pink polished nailed-finger to her rosy red lips," Try to be as quiet as you can my father is probably home from work by now, he is in the room next to your brother's, I'll warn him and talk him into letting you three stay here, I have my ways of winning my dad's good side, just don't come out of Kadaj's room until I come for you."
Natalie quietly opened the door and saw Tsung sitting at the kitchen table on his cell phone, the signature Tsung bored look on his face, the brunette motioned with her head for the brother to go upstairs as she closed the door, silently walking over to the table, pulling a chair from underneath it taking a seat gently smiling the smile her father loved to see when he came home, he always told her it relaxed him and made her remind him of her mother.
Her father hung up the phone laying it on the dining room table and pinched the bridge of his nose with his thumb and index finger, the young TURK frowned at her father's angst and asked," What's bothering you, daddy? Would you like me to make you some steamed cabbage or an egg sandwich on toasted bread, you really haven't eaten anything good in a while"
Tsung looked up at his daughter with tired eyes, shaking his head stating,"No, Rufus wants to promote you to third class SOLDIER, stating that you have accomplished everything that there has to be done in TURKS, he has done and made up his mind that starting tomorrow morning you will begin training to become the next General in ShinRa-"
" What!? No he can't do that, I didn't agree to do anything General or SOLDIER related, you're going to let him do it?" tears appeared in the brunette's green eye," You are aren't you, you nor Rufus never cared about me all you cared about was the fact that I'm the daughter of Aerith and it's possible that I have Ancient bloodline in me." Standing up she ran out of the room, up the stairs, a loud slam of the door was the ending of the conversation.
Natalie sank to the floor, burying her head in her arms that rested on her knees, the two remnant brothers looked at the weeping girl before them, Yazoo looked at her then at Kadaj who sat on the foot of the bed looking at the girl that had taken him into her home and nursed him, found his brother. He stood up walking over to her sitting beside her, moving the side of her hair, causing her to look at him, he got her in his arms as she continued to cry.
