Pairings-

Hotaru/Sephiroth

Minako/Zack

Disclaimer- I don't own either animes/mangas. I do own a few characters in here that will later appear though.


Minako twirled a strand of her long, luxurious, blonde hair around a finger as she read one of her favorite romance novels for the fourth time. Since no missions, experiments, or training exercises were being sent out, she along with the other SOLDIER's had free time for the next few days. Finding she didn't need any new shoes or clothing since the new "in" styles weren't really to her liking, she was confined to her dorm room reading. Something she rarely did, but was the only thing left to really do. Most of the others were out at bars or clubs, enjoying their vacation. She particularly hated going to those places now. After all, she was banned from most of the ones in the city. It's not her fault normal men were such pervs and she happened to be very skilled in beating the shit out of things.

A smile graced her face as she remembered what happened the last time. Herself, Zack, Sephiroth, and Hotaru went to one of the newer clubs. Hotaru and Sephiroth mostly kept to themselves as usual, since Minako was the one that dragged them there, while Zack and herself began to dance. A guy asked to dance with her, and she accepted. What she did not accept was when he asked her if she wanted to go somewhere "private". When she declined he tried to force her. That night ended with Hotaru dragging the blonde out of there before she killed the guy she had already given a major concussion to.

A knock at the door made her look up in surprise. "Come in." she said. The metal door opened a bit and a familiar handsome head popped in.

"Hey Minako, what are you doing?" Zack asked.

"Just reading." she replied.

"Oh, well why don't you come join us. I brought in some coffee and donuts."

Of course, Minako couldn't say no to that. "Ok!" she chirped, put the book down, and walked out with him

The two entered the longue to see Hotaru and Sephiroth already there drinking their coffee. The two had been dating for some time now. All thanks to the brilliant match-maker! Minako could tell the two had liked each other ever since she arrived there. Unlike herself and Zack, both had been raised to be SOLDIERS since birth. It was not easy hooking the two up either. They were both entirely stubborn and were usually very busy. Hell, it was on a mission when they finally admitted their feelings for each other.

"Hi Minako." Hotaru greeted.

"Hey!" said the blonde as she grabbed her cup of coffee and sat on the arm rest of the couch that the other two occupied. "How you guys doin?"

"Good." was all the silver haired man said.

"Hey . . . isn't today the 31 of October?" Zack suddenly asked, as he stared at the calender.

"Yes, why? You have something to do today?" Hotaru asked.

"Well yeah! It's Halloween!"

Minako jumped up, nearly spilling her drink. "OMG! I completely forgot. We so have to go out tonight!"

"We'll have to get costumes first. Heck we should go trick-or-treating too!" Zack put in. Minako nodded eagerly.

"Um. . . what are you guys talking about? What's Halloween?" Hotaru asked. Sephiroth was also confused. The two younger SOLDIERS looked at them in shock.

"Y-you're kidding me. Neither of you know what Halloween is?" Zack asked.

The two shook their heads. "We grew up in a lad." Sephiroth pointed out.

Without warning Minako launched at Hotaru and yanked her out of her seat. She then took off down the hall yelling something about getting costumes before there are none left. Sephiroth cocked an eyebrow and looked at Zack. The indigo eyed teen just smiled and motioned for him to follow. Not seeing that he really had anything else better to do, and the fact that Minako just kidnaped his girlfriend, he sighed and followed. He really wasn't sure if he was going to like this though.

"Ok, so what are we doing again?" Hotaru asked looking through the racks of completely insane and weird clothing. They were at some Halloween superstore or whatever. Zack was showing Sephiroth the male section while Minako kept her hostage in the women's. The blonde was pulling dress after dress out and holding them up to herself. She would gaze at herself in a mirror, shake her head then toss the garment to the floor.

"Well, we're getting costumes for when we go trick-or-treating tonight. Basically you dress up, go door-to-door, say trick-or-treat, and you get candy."

"Where's the logic in that?"

". . . You get free candy."

Hotaru shook her head and randomly pulled out a dress. It had caught her eye due to the purple in it. It was a very pretty medieval styled dress that had a corset top and was many shades of purple and black. In a little bag attached to its hanger were pointed teeth and black gloves. Perhaps this would do. She just hoped Minako approved or she would be stuck there all day.

"Here Hotaru, try this!" the blonde said putting a VERY pink dress up to the ebony haired girl. Hotaru, took one look in the mirror, and grimaced. She heard snickering and turned to see Zack and Sephiroth trying to hold in their laughter. Looking at her blonde friend she rather stated than said, "I'm not wearing it."

"Aw why not? It's cute."

Zack shook his head. "Minako. . . would you wear it?" she looked at it for a moment, held it up to her and checked the mirror. She looked horrified at her reflection.

"Ew, no!"

Hotaru glared at her and held up the dress she found earlier. "Can I wear this?"

Minako looked at it and squealed. "Hotaru that would look so good on you!" the girl sighed. It was to her friends liking. "Ok, well are we done now?"

"Yep, I found Sephy a vampire outfit too! And I'm going to be the Cheshire cat in Alice in Wonderland."

"Ooh! Then I should be Alice!" Minako said and quickly found the costume. The group paid for their outfits and left the store.

Sephiroth and Hotaru were not having any fun. It was now 8 at night and they were out going to stranger's houses asking for what could possibly be poisoned candy. Their two friends seemed to be having a blast though. They would cry out trick-or-treat at each door and eagerly hold out their pillow cases for the lumps of sugar. Other teens and children ran around doing the same thing. It was like an epidemic of insanity broke out. Hopefully Jenova remnants were immune to it. So far it seemed they were.

It was then their group reached a very dark house that had a line at a door that looked like it came out of a horror film. "Neat! A haunted house!" Zack cried.

"People are lining up to see ghosts? With so many of them I doubt if there even was a ghost it'd come out." Hotaru said.

"No, it's where other people dress up as monsters, hide behind stuff or in the dark, then pop out ans scare you. It's just supposed to show all your fears." Zack explained.

"I'm not going in." everyone turned to look at a pale Minako.

Sephiroth gave her a questioning look. "Why not? As SOLDIERS we're not supposed to fear anything."

"I just. . . don't like them ok?" she said, now fidgeting.

Zack saw how scared she was getting by the second and nodded. "Ok. I'll stay out here with Minako. You two go on in."

"Why?"

"Cause you two have been bored the whole night. Maybe this will provide some amusement for you." Hotaru and Sephiroth looked at each other and sighed. Might as well get it over with. The two then got in line while Zack took Minako to a near by bench outside of a small park.

"You gonna be ok?" he asked.

"Yeah. Those things just always scared me. Sephy's right though. I shouldn't be scared." she said slightly hanging her head.

Zack just smiled. "It's ok. Those two have just never really known fear. I swear they're like aliens or something." Minako laughed. The two sat there for some time watching the much younger kids run about with their bags of candy rustling in the air. It was a nice night. It wasn't too cold, and the stars and moon were out. The moon was reaching its half point and shrinking.

Minako felt a chill as the wind blew on her bare arms. Zack saw her try to warm herself up and wrapped an arm around her shoulders bringing her closer. The blondes cheeks turned a light pink color as she was pulled to him. The two had always been a little flirty with each other, but they flirted with everyone. Due to their assignments always putting them together though, they began to grow closer and more fond of each other. Minako always cursed herself later for not telling Zack the truth. She had gotten Sephiroth of all people to admit his feelings, but she still couldn't admit her own.

Speaking of Sephiroth, he and Hotaru finally made it into the haunted house, and were in shock. What the hell was this? This was Not scary! Fake blood that smelt bad of plastic bodies? Cut up and drooling people with axes and large knives jumped out from behind each and every curtain. The strobe lights were also starting to get really annoying. The group they had gone in with were screaming their lungs out at every turn. The two looked at each other. What scared them was that people actually enjoyed this crap. They have lived through real dead bodies in worse shape than these. Their monsters were actual people, which in their opinion was worse. You expected a monster to kill, not a 40 year old man.

Thankfully the two had enough sense not to attack whatever jumped out at them. In the beginning they almost had, but then saw it was only a masked idiot and kept walking. And to think Minako was actually afraid of these places. Hell, she'll brave through suicide missions but not a bunch of no skilled grown men and women dressed up as dead people popping out of nowhere?

Someone grabbed Hotaru's wrist and she looked to her right. There was a snarling. . . something, that looked like a demon. She gave it her infamous death glare and it immediately let her go. Sephiroth began to stir her ahead of him, making sure she didn't scare the poor kid anymore. She was probably the scariest thing in there. Especially if you angered her. Normally she was rather quiet and a little more kind hearted. But if forced to do something she didn't want to do, such as this, her temper was quickly shortened.

Finally they made it out. Their group wandered off, chatting away about how that one was the best house so far. The two looked at each other again and had to cover their mouths. However Hotaru couldn't hold it in anymore and began to giggle. Sephiroth soon let out a chuckle and moments later the two burst into laughter. That had to be the stupidest thing they'd seen all night. It was so horrible it was funny.

"Did you see their faces? They were completely terrified of that mother with her dead baby coming towards us." Hotaru said still laughing, and now clutching her stomach.

"I know. Why do normal humans enjoy having their hearts race and be scared out of their minds?" Sephiroth asked.

"No idea. And though we weren't scared that was the best thing we've done all night. I haven't laughed like this in ages."

"Not since Minako and Zack first arrived." the two's laughter was dying out now but both still held their smiles.

Sephiroth gently grabbed his girlfriend's hand and they walked to a more secluded area. The silvered haired teen leaned against a tree and held Hotaru around the waist. She pressed her back to his chest and closed her eyes. It had been a long time since the two of them were left alone. Training and missions had been keeping them both very busy. Not to mention that when they did get breaks Minako and Zack always wanted to do something as a group. They didn't mind it, but sometimes they just wanted to be alone with each other.

Hotaru felt Sephiroth kiss her neck then rest his chin on her shoulder. She opened her eyes and looked at him. He now had his own eyes closed and looked at peace. The violet eyed girl was the only one who could make him completely open up. He sometimes showed his personality to his friends, but seemed to be always guarding himself. She knew what that felt like. They had both grown up under the same conditions. Trust no one, be ready, you're not allowed to fear, there is no such thing as failure. That's probably why they could be together. They understood each other better than anyone else could even hope to.

"Hey, what do you say this weekend we just go out for coffee or something. No Zack, no Minako." Hotaru suggested.

Sephiroth opened one eye at her. "I'd like that. Those two are too loud. Besides I'm missing you and we work together."

With a soft smile Hotaru kissed the side of his head and closed her eyes again. The two just stayed there. Enjoying each others presence. They didn't notice the people who came running out of the haunted house, or the kids who ran by laughing. There was only each other, for the small time they had alone, and they were going to enjoy it.

Zack and Minako were still on their little park bench, waiting for their friends to come back. They were wondering what was taking the two so long. They had seen people behind them in line already heading out to other houses. Did they get lost or something?

"How much you want to bet they're making out somewhere?" Minako asked.

"I doubt that. They aren't really that type of couple. But they probably are off somewhere just holding each other, or whatever it is they like to do." Minako nodded. Yeah, those two didn't really like displaying too much affection.

She sighed. "Well then what should we do?"

"Well . . .there was. . .something I've been meaning to tell you." the indigo eyed teen said rubbing the back of his head.

"What?" Minako asked, obviously not seeing his face turn a little red.

"Well, maybe you and I could . . .go out sometime? Just the two of us."

Minako's eyes widened. He was actually asking her out on a date! She was now trying so hard not to squeal and jump around for joy. Instead she smirked and tapped her chin. "Hm, perhaps. How's this Friday sound?"

"Great!" he cried and hugged her. She smiled and hugged him back. Ok, so she didn't have to admit her feelings first, but it worked out!

Zack then pulled away and looked into her blue eyes. The two drew closer, slowly closing their eyes as the gap between their lips grew shorted. Finally they met in a kiss. Zack lowered his hands to her waist while she kept hers behind his head.

"BOO!" came a shout from behind the bench. The two jumped up and broke away from each other. There stood two smirking friends of theirs. Minako and Zack turned red at being caught, while Hotaru and Sephiroth just gave the new couple a knowing smile. "If you two are done, lets head home now." Hotaru said.

Minako glared at her, "Hotaru I'm gonna kill you!" she cried and chased the smalled girl, who was able to avoid her easily.

Sephiroth and Zack just smiled and shook their heads. They then caught up to the girls and calmed Minako down. The group began to walk home, the guys holding the hand of their significant other. It had been an interesting night indeed. And perhaps there would be more ones like it.
