"Hey, we have to make it back to the base before it starts storming!" Cid shouted at the small group.
Dark, ominous-looking clouds hovered over them as they hurried their way through a rocky quarry. Yuffie ran behind Cid with Vincent, Reeve, and Cait Sith following. Luckily they all made it back to the WRO before the storm unleashed its wrath upon them. A few moments after they entered, they heard the unmistakable booms of thunder. Yuffie jumped at the sound and ran without looking, running into Vincent's hard body.
"Oof! S-sorry Vin." He could see that the little ninja was frightened, so he held her close and flung his cape around her slim body, as if to protect her from harm.
The gunman's actions shocked the girl. It was rare to see him be so gentle and caring, especially toward her. He was usually cold and distant and never one to partake in any form of physical affection, like a hug, except for when she'd force them on him. She dismissed the thought, not wanting to ruin the rare moment. With his arms around her and the cape covering her, she felt safe. There was nothing to fear as long as she had him.
