Disclaimer: I do not own the characters or settings. If I did, I would have the money to deal with being sued. As Square Enix owns them, I'm apparently broke.
Notes: Sorry I didn't update yesterday. I got distracted by KH again… This may very well be the shortest chapter I've done.
The Secretary
Episode 28: Memories of Wutai
/Flashback/
Bombs rang out overhead. Zack paced back and forth within his makeshift hut. "These Wutains and their damn—what are they called—fireworks?" He continued to grumble as the silver-haired SOLDIER absently listened.
A grumbling man entered the tent. "Mother&'n' s." Sephiroth ignored the blond pilot. He needs a larger vocabulary.
Sephiroth leaned back onto his cot. Shinra had been fighting this war for what seemed both a few hours and an eternity. Time had stopped having meaning.
/End/ /Flashback/
"But I don' wan yoo to go!" The child cried. The tiny girl clung onto the man's leg. Her chocolate hair brushed against his leg.
"Sweetie, you know your father has to go."
/End/
/Flashback/
Sephiroth stared out of the huge window. "So… This is an airship." He could see all of the terrain clearly from this vantage point. The island was… pretty from up here. Away from the explosions and gunshots, this was nice.
"Course it's a &$'n' airship!" Cid yelled. He took a puff of his cigarette.
"Umm… Guys?" Zack mumbled to no one in particular.
"Where the $& did you 'n' think you were, #-head!"
"Umm, guys!"
Sephiroth narrowed his eyes at the pilot. "I don't like your attitude."
"Yeah, well I don't 'n' like you, Pretty Boy."
"GUYS!"
"What the is it!"
Zack pointed out the dome-like window. In front of them was a very large Wutain statue. Da Chao? The statue seemed to be getting closer very quickly.

Zack held the photo tenderly in his hands. It was Seph and himself seated at the base of a series of statues the Wutains had built. Behind them, one could make out the wreckage of their airship. How did we survive that one?
"Jessie, you're acting very childish." Sephiroth wiggled his leg hoping that his secretary would let go. It had not worked the first fifty or so times, so why did he think it would this time?
"I don't wanna go! You can't make me!" Jessie squeezed his leg to the breaking point.
Sephiroth shook his head and sighed. "… If you keep hugging my leg, how are you not going to go?"
Jessie turned her amber eyes up to her boss.
"You mean I don't have to go?" Her grip loosened enough that he could free his limb.
"… No. You still have to go."
"……………………………………………… I hate you so much right now."
Like it? Believe I need medication? No opinion? Please review and thank you for taking time for this bit of fluff.
