If anything is wrong please do tell me. :D


Ted and Zack had left my house for a while now and Link had long gone to sleep. I was having a hard time. I was restless and sleep didn't want to touch my eyes. Figuring I wouldn't manage to close my eyes for tonight I left my bed and headed to the kitchen. A cold glass with water would do me good.

As silent as possible I crept towards the kitchen, my bare footsteps silently making a creaking noise on the wooden floor. I was thankful that I had placed woodened floors instead of those cold tiles Zack suggested. In this breezy and humid Midgar, my feet would have frozen. I filled the glass with cold water and brought it to my lips. The fresh sensation sliding in my throat felt fantastic and cooled my stomach. I sighed contently and looked around my apartment. The moonlight that crept through the balcony gave a soothing environment to my humble abode. Not only that but it gave it somehow a mystic glow, a warm and wonderful glow. I wondered why had I never noticed it before. I mean, it was really something welcoming. I guess…I never bothered to look deeply into it. Always busy with my missions and my self-hatred and depression. I hardly cared how things really were, how things really looked outside my bubble. Link…

Everything had changed thanks to him. He forged a new man in me. A kinder and stronger man that could face the world without regrets. A man that could see their friends eye to eye without being afraid of what he may see there. A man who wasn't afraid to reveal how he felt or how he is. A man that could be himself before anyone and everyone. Yes. I was that man. I had became that man. And all of it, I owed it to the man that I now considered the most important person in my life. I owed you Link. And I hope that as payment you may accept my life, for now I will devote it all to you. I smiled happily. I wouldn't mind having that kind of life. Not at all. I walked towards the couch and allowed myself to relax there. Closing my eyes, I drifted into a slumber filled with pleasant dreams. Yes. Link was worth risking my life for.


I woke up and stretched a bit. I had had a pleasant night, but…sleeping in the couch is something I won't do ever again. Really, if you wish to wake up with you back feeling like shit well be my guest. But I for one, I won't ever wish to sleep in it ever again. I took a sip of water and as my eyes adjusted to the light I realized there was no smell whatsoever of breakfast. Strange…Link usually woke up before I did. Where was he? I stood up rather wobbly, and made my way to his room. I knocked. "Link." No answer. "Link. Are you awake?" No answer still. "Link. I'll come in is that alright?" I turned the doorknob and eased myself in. "Link…you mustn't oversleep today. Ted will be here…" What I saw made my whole life crumble and slip away. I fell to my knees, breathless, speechless, hell I felt soulless. Why? Why? Why? It was the only question that kept reappearing and reappearing over and over inside my head. I couldn't grasp what was before me. I couldn't accept what my eyes were seeing. I mean…seriously…why? I guess that was the only question I needed an answer from. Why? A tear made it's way slowly down my cheek.

It wasn't fair. That's the second thing that crossed my mind. It wasn't fair at all. Life always found a way to ditch me into the mud. To make my happiness last but for seconds before it ripped it away from me. In a blink all my hopes, my dreams, my fantasies were but mere illusions that disappeared into thin air. Why? Why? An exasperated scream erupted from me and I smashed my fists against the wooden floor continuously while I cursed every deity, every spirit even the Planet itself for my misfortune. After all, what did it mattered if the unleashed their rage against me. Wasn't I already broken? Wasn't I already lifeless? Why did it matter if they ended it? Hell, I would be happy to receive the final blow right about now. I was ready to embrace death! "BRING IT UPON ME YOU FUCKS!" I yelled while tears fell like rivers. "UNLEASH YOUR DIVINE PUNISHMENT UPON ME! GAIA! I DARE YOU TO!" Rain began to fall outside, reflecting the despair and hopelessness I felt as I gazed upon what was before me. Upon the bed laid Link. He was smiling while he gazed left…were my room was located beyond the wall. His face was so peaceful I allowed myself to relax. He had been happy at least…he was happy. I cried fervently. He was happy. He was happy. I crept to the bed. "Link…" I whispered, my voice hoarse after all the yelling and cursing. "Link…" I arrived to his side. "My beloved Link…" My hand caressed his soft cheek. "How about if I make you breakfast today huh?" Tears fell and fell unstoppably. "Wouldn't you like that? How about the food you made last time?" I brushed away a few golden strands that fell upon his face. "You know…those that you used to ate back home. Would you like that?" His blue eyes looked at me. I could look upon those eyes forever. "Well then I'll prepare it. Just rest a bit okay?" I kissed him. I kissed him! How have I longed for this kiss! This perfect and magical kiss! Hell, it felt wonderful. His taste was…just…well I can't describe it. It was so enticing and addictive. I kissed him once more. And…once more. I couldn't get enough from him. I kissed him again. It was so powerful his pull upon me. I kissed him one last time more passionate than the times before. So beautiful, I thought. So charming, so pretty, so lovely, so angelic, so divine, so indescribable. Reluctantly I broke the kiss, gasping for air and stood up. "I'll be back." I said dazedly. He looked at me. "Just wait for me okay?" I begged and kissed his forehead. "I'll be back soon." And I left, closing the door silently; leaving Link lying on the bed covered with his blood with Masamune embedded upon his chest.

He is always there. Always looking at me, always waiting for me to be alone. He tells me things…awful things. Hateful and despiteful things. I'm scared to be alone Master. I need you. I'm terrified of the dark cause I know he'll be waiting for me. He always uses me. He hurts me, Master. He likes to see me in pain. He pulls from my hair when I don't listen to him. He kicks and punches me if I don't do what he says. He has even asked me to hurt you Master. To cut you and kill you! I can't do that Master. Not to you who has been kind and loveable towards me. And he…He...

He's blood thirsty.

"Why hadn't I listened?" I fell to my knees and cried my heart out. "DAMN YOU SEPHIROTH! I KILLED YOU ONCE! I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU ONCE MORE!"
