Do not own FF7.

Drabble nine: In which we find the real reason Cloud tried to join SOLIDER.

Mature

Cloud looked up to the giant walls of the Midgar city. It had taken him forever and a day to reach here, but he finally had. Thanking the kind truck driver, Cloud bid him goodbye and started to reach the beginning of the gate. Memories flooded Cloud as he thought of the fact that he was going to start to train in SOLIDER.

His mother had actually hated the organization, so it was very funny when his mother actually encouraged him to join.

Why?

Well…

"Cloud, what is that in your hands?"

"They were handing them out." Cloud handed the piece of paper to his mother, and the woman frowned for a second, but then her eyes scanned the paper, her eyes growing wide and a blush covered her face.

"Oh my…"

"Mom?"

"Cloud, who is this?" His mother pointed to the figure on the little poster. Cloud shrugged slightly,

"They say he's the greatest in SOLIDER, I think his name is Sephiroth." Lily drooled at the image, what lovely long silver hair, and gorgeous green eyes. He was a part of SOLIDER, eh?

"Cloud, how would you like to be in SOLIDER?"

"Mom, don't you hate them though?"

"Oh…I wouldn't mind if it made my son happy."

"Well…I guess…I mean…" Cloud looked away slightly abashed, not knowing what else to say. Lily giggled slightly, still staring at the image on the poster.

"Great, let's start helping you train…" Lily grabbed her headband as Cloud sighed and prepared his gi. "Oh and Cloud?"

"Yes?"

"I want one of his gloves when you met him." Cloud rolled his eyes, watching as his mom laughed cheerfully and gleefully at the thought of grasping one of Sephiroth's gloves.

Which reminded Cloud, did Sephiroth even HAVE gloves?

Drabble 9, end! Yeah, this was a request from KDA, so…yeah, insanity and stuff. Whoo! Anyway, thanks to Elanor Pam (Lily freaked out because most of the time when boys and girls play doctor, it ends up in nudity and stuff, bwahaha!), KDA, Tolea, and Cloud Metei.
