Chapter 4: Introductions.

Vincent looked at Mirth and pointed at the girl supposedly sleeping under his cape, silently commanding her to go check on the girl. The barn owl simply shook its head at him and also pointed at the girl, the little owl had sensed something coming off of Yuffie that little animal knew to be the body's instinctual attraction the opposite gender. Mirth had been experimented on so she could comprehend some of how the human mind worked; so she mixed Vincent's command with her animalistic knowledge that when there is attraction there should be interaction, but her brain still didn't comprehend how human attraction worked and that was the only flaw in her plan. Vincent didn't know what was going through her head but he did realize that she wasn't going to leave her perch so he was going to have to do it himself. He was well aware that many people who saw him through his travels as a monster with the complexion he had and he really hadn't wanted to scare the girl first thing upon waking her up. Giving a sigh, he began to walk over to her.

~V*Y~

"Head's up, girl, here he comes!"

'Oh Leviathan!' Yuffie heard the footsteps stop next to her suddenly the cape was slowly ripped off of her, the sudden cold made her shut her and took a few moments to look up that the man. She really wished she hadn't his blood red eyes seemed to draw her in and she couldn't look away. The man was kneeling next to her and had a very blank expression on his face.

"Miss, are you alright….?" Yuffie couldn't pull her eyes away from his long enough to form an actual sentence.

"Talk, dang it! He's gonna think there's something wrong with you mentally and I'm not getting blamed for that!"

"Huh! Oh, uh… Yeah, I'm fin! … Er I mean fine! Hehe!" Yuffie stammered and giggled nervously, Vincent gave the slightest hint of a quizzical look and Mirth chirred with, well mirth, at the chemistry she could jest smell happening between them. The evil little barn owl matchmaker had this all worked out, she just had to keep the two together.

"Your arm was damaged yesterday, is it feeling alright..?" Yuffie looked down at the arm in question and nodded.

"Good, that is all I needed to know. You may use this blanket while you stay in this cave until the storm is over but I required my cape back, I must be leaving."

"Oooh! No wonder that thing smelled so good! Do NOT let him leave, girl!"

'Why?'

"I'll tell you later."

'Sigh… ok…'

"Why are you going out in that snow storm? It's dangerous! You could be hurt!" Vincent shook his head at her words.

"No, I will be fine. My body can resist such thing… Now, please, I need my cape…"

"Oh, sorry…" Yuffie slowly handed him the cape as he draped the thin yet warm blanket over her shoulders, the movement of his as he did the act sent a shiver through her. Mirth saw where this was going; Vincent was going to leave and totally ruin her plans! She knew that it was breed into human females to take care of hurt males that they were attracted to and there was one physical place that Vincent's healing abilities weren't working on: the shoulder than had been bitten, and the bacteria could make him very sick. She quickly flapped to the air and landed on his wounded shoulder before he could put his cape on, that shoulder was currently rather stiff and slow. Vincent winced and let out a grunt of pain at the unsuspected pressure on his neglected wound, causing Yuffie to quickly look to the source of his pain and saw the teeth marks in his shirt.

"Ooooh! He's hurt! Now's our chance to show off those fancy First Aid skills mom taught us before she died and maybe get to know this guy! Shehehe….!"

'Tsukiko, are you insane! This guy's kinda scary, he turned into a wolf!'

"So? He helped you didn't he? I'm sure he's a good guy; plus he took care of us, we should return the favor!" Yuffie didn't know what Tsukiko was getting at but she went along with it.

"You're hurt; let me see, my mother taught me First Aid before she died."

"That's not neces-" His words were cut off by Mirth biting his ear and glaring at him, as if she was demanding that he obeyed the girl, Vincent complied and sighed.

"Fine, I will allow you to treat me…" Mirth chirred at his response and went to get the supplies, "She will be back in a moment with the things you need."

"Great! Now get him to take off his shirt!"

'What? What for!'

"To be able to work on the wound, duh!"

'Oh…'

"And to get a look at that super hot body again!"

'Dang it, Tsukiko!'

"Shahaha!" Yuffie gulped as she hesitantly raised a hand towards his shoulder.

"Um… Sorry, but could you… uh… T-take your s-shirt of-f a bit s-so I can see the w-wound…?" Vincent didn't respond but he slowly moved his arm up and to his chest to unbutton his shirt, letting the left side of slide far enough down for her to be able to treat the wound. Yuffie let in a silent gasp as the sight of his firm, pale torso; she could just feel Tsukiko fainting from hotness overload in the back of her head. It took a minute, but she was finally able to pull her eyes away from his body and look over to the owl that at last got back with the stuff.

"Thank you." She said politely to the owl and was shocked when the owl nodded back before fly over to Vincent's good shoulder. Yuffie busied herself with getting some disinfectant and putting it on a piece of cloth to clean the wound with, this was not going to be easy on her nerves. Sighing, she lifted the damp cloth and gently dabbed the bite marks with it. She knew it burned but for some reason he wasn't showing any emotion towards it, he simply looked past her to the cave wall.

"S-so, w-what's your name…?" She asked slowly after clearing her throat from nervousness. Vincent shot a glance to Mirth whose dark eyes gave him a look that seemed to say "she's really nervous, talk to her!".

"I go by the name Vincent Valentine…."

"Oohh man! Our body's reacting just to the sound of it! Valentine…. Mmmm" Yuffie mentally rolled her eyes at her inner self who had seemed to revive herself.

'Oh, shut up! I hate you so much right now!'

"O-oh.. That's a really nice name…" She with a soft smile after her little mental argument, blushing a bit at what Tsukiko said, "My name's Yuffie Kisaragi, nice to meet you…"

"Thank you…" Mirth gave him a look, "Your name is rather beautiful… Kisaragi… It also sounds familiar somehow…." Yuffie choked on her own saliva, how was she going to tell him that she was the princess of Wutai and had run away from home? He would totally send her back and she just couldn't let that happen!

"I-I don't know… My father distributes lots of stuff throughout the world maybe that's how…" Her voice just trained off as her heart pounded in her chest.

"Hnnn…." She heard his reply then suddenly let in a sharp gasp as her hand brushed his skin while applying the bandage; his skin was soft, smooth and slightly cold but still hot enough to feel good to her.

"Mmm, that's so soft, girl! Feels nice doesn't it?"

'Shut it, Tsukiko!'

"Why, am I makin' ya feel weird?"

'Extremely!'

"Oh, fine. I'll keep quiet, for now…"

"Is something wrong, Miss Kisaragi…?" Crud, he had heard her gasp!

"N-no..! I just moved my arm weird and it hurt a tiny bit." Oh Yuffie, where had your ninja lying skills run off to know! Then the dreaded question slipped from Vincent's beautiful pale lips.

"So, what ever could the reason be for a young girl like yourself be all the way out here in the snow wearing nothing but shorts and a small shirt…?" Yuffie was pretty sure she died at the words.

~~~~A/N: Well, there you go. One very awkward chat between a man and a young woman. Also, I'm beginning to think that maybe Mirth and Tsukiko have like a mental link with the way those two think!
