Ichigo sat quietly in Vincent car. She was so scared that she felt that she was going to throw up. Vincent pulled into the driveway and he and Ichigo got out of the car. Ichigo followed Vincent all the down to his lab.

"I have not looked at the results," Vincent said picking up the folder, "so you are the first one to look at it." Ichigo looked at the folder and took a deep breath in and out. She flipped it open and saw the thing that saw had dreading since yesterday.

"I'm not his daughter." And tear rolled down her face.

"I knew it ever since I saw Tifa but I just…I just wanted it to be a lie." Ichigo continued reading and saw something that confused her.

"Vincent, the birthday is off."

"What?" Ichigo handed him the folder.

"It states that I'm a year a older then what I really am." Vincent looked though the folder then at her.

"Miss Ichigo, what this file says is true. You are the same age as Riku."

"How the hell can that be?" Vincent thought for a moment and then something hit him.

"My god. Dr. Hojo experiment…" Ichigo started backing away from Vincent.

"No…No…"

"Miss Ichigo?" Ichigo shock her head.

"I don't want to know. NO!" Ichigo quickly turned around and ran out of Vincent home. While she was running it started to poor, but she didn't care. She needed to get away. Away from Vincent, Riku, everything. Ichigo ran so far that she didn't know where she was. She looked around but couldn't make out anything familiar. She was about to call Braig, but she saw someone who looked familiar.

"Ienzo?" Ienzo looked up from the ground at her.

"Ichigo-san? What are you doing here?" Ichigo couldn't contain herself. She threw herself at Ienzo and cried. Ienzo almost dropped his umbrella. When he was about to ask her what was wrong, his phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Yo Ienzo. Do you know where Ichigo is?" Ienzo looked down and blushed.

"Yea, she's right here…crying." Braig sighed on the other line.

"I knew this would happened. Where are you guys?"

"In front of my house."

"What! How there hell did she get there?"

"It seems she ran over here."

"Take her to your place. I'll be right there." Braig hung up the phone and headed out to Ienzo house.


Vincent was driving around looking for Ichigo. He had been driving around for an hour but he couldn't find her. He sighed and decided to head to Ichigo home to see if she had returned home. He pulled into the drive though, got out the car, and headed to the door. He rang the doorbell and Riku opened the door.

"Ich-oh. Mr. Valentine. Good evening sir. How are you?"

"Not to well. Is Miss Ichigo home?" Riku was silence.

"No. Do you know where she is?"

"She ran off when she came to visit."

"What? Why? What is going on?" Vincent sighed.

"I need you to come with me."

"We need to pick up Sora."

"Why?"

"Because he keeps me from killing anyone," Riku said coldly as he walked out the door to Vincent car. Vincent went to car and head to Sora's house to pick him up. Sora, Riku and Vincent sat in Vincent car, which was in Sora driveway.

"Where would Miss Ichigo go if she didn't want to go home," Vincent asked Riku and Sora.

"Why wouldn't she want to come home?" asked Sora. Vincent was silent.

"What the hell did you do to her you-"

"Riku. Calm down"

"Calm down. My sister as been missing all day and my father come home tomorrow and you want me to calm down? What if she's hurt? What if she's in trouble? What do you think my dad is going to do to me when he finds out she's not home tomorrow?"

"Riku, don't worry. We'll find her. Lets just call everyone we know right now to she if she at their house." Riku sighed and nodded. Sora and Riku called all their friends but no one had seen Ichigo all day. Riku and Sora both sighed after hanging up their phones.

"Where is she?" Riku said quietly to himself as he ran his hands through his hair.

"Braig" Riku looked up at Sora.

"What?"

"She would probably go to Braig or Ienzo house, but I have no idea where they live."

"I do," Vincent said before he started up his car.

"We'll head to Braig house first since he's closer."

Ichigo was lying on the couch and her head was on Ienzo lap in the back of Braig car.

"So what happened to her Braig?"

"She got a DNA at Valentines' house because she started thinking she was related to Tifa and not Riku. I guess the results came out showing she was right."

"Wow…no wonder she was crying so much."

"Yea," Braig said as he pulled into his driveway.

"Ienzo, take Ichigo upstairs and while I get ready for Riku to get here." Ienzo and Braig both knew it was only a matter of time before Riku came to the house. Ienzo took Ichigo to the the guess room and Braig waited in the living room.

"Ok big brother Riku. Where are you?" No sooner did he say that, the doorbell rang. Braig sighed, got up and headed to the door.

"Where is she?" Braig moved from the front of the door and let Riku and Sora in. Riku grabbed Braig by his shirt collar and slammed him into the wall.

"Riku!" Sora yelled.

"Where is she?" Riku yelled.

"I can't tell you!" Braig said before he pushed Riku off of him. Riku stumble backward.

"You can't keep her!"

"It's not about keeping her. She's not ever yours to keep idiot."

"Why you-"

"Stop it!" Everyone turn to the staircase and saw Ichigo.

"Ichigo what are you doing here. Dad is"

"No! I can't go back"

"What are you talking about?"

"I…I can't. I just can't. Vincent knows why…"

"What the hell is going on?" Ichigo quickly ran up the stairs. Riku was about to case after her but Sora grabbed his arm.

"I think you should go get Vincent." Riku quickly left the house and went to get Vincent.


Everyone sat in the living room and looked at Vincent.

"Miss Ichigo came to my house to get a DNA test. She was having doubt about her family status."

"Why would she not think we were related anymore?"

"Because of Miss Lockheart."

"Miss Tifa?"

"Ichigo is the daughter of Tifa and Cloud."

"What!" said Riku and Sora.

"There's more. She doesn't seem to be the right age."

"What?"

"She seems to be a different age."

"What do you mean?" Riku asked.

"She is more like you twin sister then little sister." Everyone was shocked.

"How is that possible?" Braig asked.

"Sephiroth joined Dr. Hojo to conducted an experiment."

"What kind of experiment?"

"When Ichigo was born she was put in a chamber to stop her aging for a year to make it seem she was younger the Riku." There was a long silence in the room. Riku slowly stood up and head to the front door.

"Riku where are you going?" Sora asked.

"I need some air." Riku said before he close the door behind him. Sora looked at Vincent then at Braig.

"What do we do now?" Braig shrugged.

"Me and Ienzo will keep and one on her. You should go be with Riku." Sora nodded and went outside with Riku. Sora saw him sitting on the ground next to Vincent car crying. Sora went to Riku and let him cry on his shoulder. Vincent stood up and walked over the Braig.

"Please take care of Miss Ichigo."

"I will" Braig let Vincent out and Vincent took Sora and Riku home. Braig went upstairs and saw Ichigo and Ienzo were sleeping. Braig smiled to himself and close the door.
