MoroTheWolfGod: Thanks again for your review! Here is another chapter. I am not going out tomorrow so I may be able to write another one tomorrow. I already have some ideas, but I just need to piece them together. I'm interested in reading the story that you told me about in your review!

A/N: This chapter is a bit longer than the last one, and I hope all my readers enjoy it, the silent ones and the reviewers. Please review to let me know what you think!

Rude unlocked the door to his apartment with shaky hands, he could not believe that everything had suddenly gone wrong. With a sigh, he took his jacket off and threw it on the sofa, and then walked into the kitchen to make a coffee. Just as he had switched the coffee maker on, a loud crash, followed by a curse, came from the living room. Thinking it was Reno, Rude ran back into the room, and was shocked to see an unknown figure getting to his feet.

"Hello, brother. I hope you didn't think I was going to leave you alone." Hunter said, evil smirk placed on his face. Rude's face went from a look of shock to a look of anger.

"How did you find out where I live?" he snarled, as Rude hadn't seen his brother for a few years. Hunter let out a loud laugh, he wasn't about to go revealing any of his secrets.

"Like I would tell you, brother. Now, why don't you sample this for me?" he asked as he held out another drug sample. Rude didn't hesitate in smacking the small package out of Hunter's hands. He didn't watch as the package split and the substance fell across the floor.

"I was a drug addict once, but not anymore! Why don't you just leave? I need to put my life back together. I have enough problems as it is, and they all stem from you, so just go." Rude snarled, though deep down he knew it wouldn't be that easy to get rid of Hunter. The junkie just laughed, he couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"Rude, Rude, Rude, I will leave you alone when you try this stuff. Don't make me have to kidnap the person who means the most to you. If it gets to that point, you will need to try it, otherwise, who knows what will happen?" Hunter said casually, which was worrying Rude.

"You won't get Reno so easily, he'll put up a good fight." Rude snarled, which caused Hunter to let out another cruel laugh. The bald Turk noticed how glazed over his brother's eyes were, it was so painfully obvious that he was high.

"Oh, that's Red's name, is it? Well anyway, your dear Reno doesn't seem that important to you. After all, if you love someone then you don't beat them up until they end up in the hospital. No wonder he doesn't love you anymore." Hunter said with a wave of his hand. This made Rude angry, he refused to believe that Reno no longer wanted him.

"That's a lie! Now get out of here and take your drugs with you!" he shouted, and then grabbed his smaller brother's collar and threw him out the door. With a sigh of relief when he heard Hunter walk away, Rude turned his attention back to the coffee maker.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A couple of weeks later and it seemed that Reno was fine, so the hospital allowed him to go home. Tseng had already sorted the apartment out, it was still near the Shinra building but it meant that Reno didn't have to take his stuff very far. Walking into the building, the redhead made his way to Rude's apartment to get his stuff, he just hoped that Rude didn't fly off the handle. Taking a deep breath and knocking on the apartment door, Reno didn't have a lot of time to mentally prepare himself as it didn't take Rude long to open the door.

"Reno, I thought you had your own apartment now." Rude said, feeling no anger, but instead he was feeling sorrow. Reno nodded and looked up at the bald Turk, pleased that he had his shades on.

"Yes, but can I come in and get my stuff please?" he said, and Rude moved away from the door. He watched as Reno walked into the bedroom, and Rude was fighting the urge to try and get him to stay. The Turk didn't want Reno to leave, but he knew that Tseng would only get even more angry. It wasn't long before Rude was shaken out of his thoughts and he saw Reno, bags packed and ready to go.

"See you at work, Rude." he said as he walked over to the front door. Rude walked over as he would need to lock it when the redhead left.

"OK, take care Reno." he said, having an even more difficult time to try not to get down on his knees and beg for the redhead to stay.

"You too." Reno said, and Rude watched sadly as he walked away to his new apartment. With a sigh, the bald Turk shut the door and went to pt the TV on, needing to watch something to take his mind off of the recent events.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hunter was sitting on the roof of Shinra HQ, preparing to put his plan into action. He knew the Turks would not be around now, so Rufus would be on his own. The junkie was small enough to crawl through the vents, surprisingly enough, and it wasn't long before he found the president's bedroom. Opening the grate calmly and softly, he used rope to lower himself down and was pleased to see that there were no guards. He failed to notice the security camera as he snuck over to Rufus' bed, pulling out a gag and some rope. Shaking Rufus awake, he watched as the president tried to focus.

"What the he--mmmff!!!" he tried to shout as Hunter placed the gag over his mouth and held his arms down.

"Don't struggle, Shinra, if you want to live." Hunter snarled, and was pleased to see that Rufus remained silent. The president knew when it was pointless to fight, he just hoped he would be able to live through everything. Hunter tied Rufus' arms and legs and scrawled out a quick note to Tseng, and then, evil smirk in place, he walked out of the door, made sure there were no guards around, and made a quick and easy exit back to his hideout, while Rufus decided that he needed guards to work the night shift.
