I finally updated! Sorry that it took so long. I just got Crisis Core, so I've been playing that non-stop. I havent been on the computer for ages.

But now that I have Crisis Core, I can see just how out of character my characters are. -dies- Please don't kill me. I will try to make them more like they really are, but I cant really change them that much because I need them like this for my story. Then again, this is a fanfic after all. I dont really care if my Genesis is retarded. I need him to be like that. So deal with it.

Oh yeah, this chap is a little random. I DONT KNOW. I was bored and attempted to make it funny, but miserably failed. T.T

Disclamier: I do not own these people.

Chapter Twelve

"You don't even know what you're talking about!"

"I do too. Maybe if you just listened to the point that I'm trying to make..."

"Um...guys?"

"Well, maybe you should listen to me!"

"Guys?"

"Why on earth would I take advice from a moron?"

"Guys!"

"I'm not a moron!"

"SHUT THE HELL UP AND LISTEN TO SIRHC, YOU IDOITS!!" Neru suddenly screamed, scaring everyone into silence.

"Uh...thanks Neru. I was trying to say that there is a gigantic fiend coming up behind Zack, who picked the perfect time to fall asleep." Sirhc said, annoyed. No one ever listened to her.

"Just let it eat him...no one will care." Genesis muttered.

"Jerk!" Aly hit him over the back of his head with a saucepan.

"What the hell?! Where did you get that thing from?!" He cried.

"I don't know! The magic powers of the universe!" She suggested while hitting him again.

"We have the cookies on our side!" Neru exclaimed happily. That was her excuse for everything.

"GUYS?! ZACK IS ABOUT TO DIE HERE!" Sirhc yelled while throwing stones at the fiend.

Zack snored happily, completely oblivious to the whole scenario.

"Oh yeah...don't remind me." Genesis grumpily got up and held up a glowing red sphere, setting the dragon on fire.

Sirhc stared at the burning corpse in awe. "How did you do that?"

"Mastered fire materia..." He muttered before sitting down again.

"Can I see?" Aly asked, her inner pyro side coming out.

"No. Over my dead body."

Sirhc sat down next to him, eyes gleaming. "How about me? Can I see it? Pleaasseee"

"No!" he quickly got up and moved away from them. "We should stop resting now and get a move on if we want to reach the next town." He quickly changed the subject.

Sirhc sighed unhappily before deciding to steal his materia another time. "But what about Zack? How are we going to wake him?"

"Easy." Genesis walked up to Zack and held out the materia once again.

"H-hey what are you..." Sirhc said nervously.

Genesis smirked as Zack's raven coloured hair burst into flames.

Zack screamed and ran around before dunking his head in a nearby stream. However, when he raised his head again, all his hair was burnt off and he started crying after seeing his reflection. "M-my hair..."

Genesis merely laughed. He looked really funny bald.

Sirhc and Ally stared wide-eyed at Zack. How could Genesis do such a thing?!

"NOT TO WORRY, NERU IS HERE!!" Neru sang happily and skipped up to the bald Zack. "One, two and COOKIE!" There was a huge sparkly poof and all of a sudden, Zack's hair was back to normal-exactly how it looked before Genesis burnt it.

Zack 'yippied' happily and hugged Neru. "I love you!!"

Neru laughed before escaping his grip and turning to glare at Genesis. In fact, all four of them turned to glare at him at exactly the same time.

Genesis gulped and backed away slowly. "Uh...guys?"

They all advanced toward him slowly; eyes filled with an evil loathing.

"I-it was just a joke...r-right?"

They said nothing, but walked faster.

"It woke him up, didn't it?" Genesis decided that then would be a good time to run, but they all screamed horrible insults at him and gave chase.

"We finally made it..." Aly panted while leaning against a pole and staring at the small town.

"..." Genesis glared at her grumpily. He had been in a really bad mood ever since the four of them beat him to a pulp. Funnily enough, Aly hit the hardest. Praise goes to the cure materia; or he'd still be lying in a ditch, bleeding to death.

"Come on, I want to find something to eat!" Sirhc cried while running off into the town, Neru and Zack following her. Aly smirked evilly at Genesis before following as well.

Oh yes, Genesis was going to die. In the most horrible and painful way ever.

"Ah...yes, I'd like a room for five..." Genesis told the receptionist at the hotel while watching the three girls run around like the complete idiots they were.

"I'm sorry sir, we seemed to be booked out..." The receptionist said nervously after realising that Genesis was with Shinra.

"Booked out? How can a tiny town like this be booked out?!"

"W-well...you see...there was a travelling show come past here the other day and they rented all the rooms...They're gone now, but they left behind a massive mess which we're still cleaning...I'm afraid no one can rent those rooms sir..."

Genesis sighed. This day couldn't get any worse, could it?

Afraid that he was going to cut her to pieces in Shinra's name, the receptionist quickly came up with a solution. "We don't have any rooms for five...but we do have one room available..."

"We'll take it."

"Yes, sir...I'll get the keys right away..." She quickly got the keys out and led him to the room, unlocking the door and bowing politely before giving him the keys and walking away.

Sirhc, Neru and Aly ran past Genesis and into the room, wanting to get first dibs on the best beds.

"What the hell?!" Aly cried. "There are only two beds!"

"Yes...apparently, this is all they've got." Genesis muttered.

"What?! This is gay! I'm not sleeping on the floor!"

"Neither am I. We'll have to share beds..."

"Eeeew! No way in hell, you pervert!"

"Oh, grow up. This sort of thing happens all the time. If you have a problem with it, then sleep outside." He scowled, annoyed at her immaturity.

"Hmph! Fine, but I'm sleeping with Neru and Sirhc..."

"I'll sleep on the floor." Zack said.

"Don't tell me that you're immature too..." Genesis glared.

"Nah, it's not that. I just don't mind sleeping on the floor...besides, the rug looks comfy..."

Genesis shrugged. Zack had the ability to fall asleep anywhere at anytime, so he doubted that this would really bother him.

"Are you sure?" Neru asked him.

"Yeah. Wake me when it's dinner time." He replied happily and curled up on the rug, falling asleep instantly.

"He's so weird." Aly stated.

"And your not?" Sirhc smirked.

"Oh shut it."

Sirhc laughed and headed to the door. "I'm gonna go out. You guys coming?"

"Yeah!"

"Course!"

"I have to go make a phone call..." Genesis muttered. Sephiroth wasn't going to be happy when he found out what had happened.

The three girls left the room quickly-eager to explore the town. It was only a few seconds after they left that Genesis realised something. They had stolen his wallet.

Sirhc, Neru and Aly sat on a wooden log, enjoying their ice cream cones as they stared at the beautiful sunset.

"Man...I'm exhausted." Aly muttered.

"Yeah me too." Sirhc agreed.

"Exploring the town was fun though." Neru said while examining all the things that they had bought with Genesis's money. "It was a good idea to get some souvenirs." She laughed.

"Yeah. I like this!" Sirhc held up a snow globe that had a funny little creature in it with a big red nose and pom-pom type thing on its head. "It's really cute!"

"How mad do you think he'll be?" Aly wondered.

"Who cares? After what he did today..."

"Hey, 'bout that..." Sirhc turned to Neru. "How did you do that?"

"Do what?"

"You know, that whole 'poof' thing."

"I...I'm not sure. It just kinda...happened I guess. I can't really explain it. Do you think that I have my powers now?"

"Who knows? None of us know how to use them properly yet...the only one who can help us is Orlando." Aly muttered. She wasn't very fond of him.

"Yeah...but where is he?"

"I think we'll see him again soon..." Sirhc said mysteriously. "Hey Aly, you also used your powers again today, remember?"

"I did...?"

"Yeah! That saucepan appeared out of nowhere and just disappeared again, remember?"

"Oh yeah. Shit, I didn't even realise. Maybe this is like second nature to us?"

"Yeah, that's kinda scary."

"Mmm...maybe we should head back now." Neru suggested while staring at the sky. "It's getting dark. And I'm hungry."

"Let's go." Aly agreed.

Sirhc followed them slowly, never taking her eyes off the woods behind them.

"Hey what's up?" Neru asked her.

"I...I feel like we're being watched..." She shuddered.

"It's probably just your imagination. Come on." Aly urged, eager to have her dinner.

"Yeah...probably." She muttered while following them in the direction of the hotel. "Just my imagination..."

Meh. I have nothing to say.

Fred: I do!

Nobody cares.

Fred: T.T
