Ghost of You and me
What am
I supposed to do with all these blues
Haunting me everywhere
No matter what i do
Watching the candle flicker out
In the evening glow
I can't let go, when will that night be over
'I can't let him go. I
never will be able too.' thought the raven-haired man. His red eyes flashed in
the lightning in the distance giving him an eerie glow and evil look. Most
people cringed when the saw him. 'All I am to these people is a monster. He
understood me; even if we were different we still understood each other. I mean
gods!' His thoughts raced in his head as he walked down to his destination, a
house almost as eerie as he was. 'This is were most of the horror happened,
this is where I shall find him.'
I didn't mean to fall in love with you
And baby there's a name for what you put me through
It isn't love it's robbery
I'm sleeping with the ghost of you and me
'Ah yes the lab of Hojo
were all the horror happened. I hate this place.' Vincent thought to himself.
*Then why come here? * Stirred a slightly awake
Chaos. 'Because I have nowhere to go, nobody will take me in and I need a place
to stay.' *Oh. Figures. * Chaos yawned and Vincent didn't feel
him stir again. 'Thank God he is to tired to be…chaotic.'As Vincent made his
way to the lab, he remembered everything, not only them saving the planet but
looking into the eyes of the defeated Sephiroth as he lay helpless when Cloud
had defeated him. 'Poor thing had to leave him there all by his self. He is the
only one that understands, like me he is a product of Hojo's evil ways.
Seen a
lot of broken hearts go sailing by
Phantom ships, lost at sea
Well one of them is mine
Raising my glass I sing a toast to the midnight sky
I wonder why the stars don't seem to guide me
As he walked in to the
lab he saw freshly opened books and some dirty dishes clearly indicating someone
had been there. 'But who could it be? Very few people know of this lab under
the building! Unless…' Vincent heard moaning coming from the room he himself
had been banished to. The door was open and his coffin lay halfway topless.
'Gods. I wonder.' As he looked inside
he saw a trembling form of Sephiroth, it sounded like he was crying. Vincent
couldn't tell. 'Oh Dear God, what' Vincent thought 'could have broken him to
make him this way?' *See this? This what the world does to rejects. That is why
you must be more than a reject. * Chaos said calmly. *What are you doing??
Stop! Don't touch him! * this was more forceful. Vincent bent down a touched
Sephiroth on the shoulder. Then man moved more quickly than Vincent ever
imagined, he had Vincent by the waist, his head buried in Vincent's stomach.
'Ok.' "Sephiroth…what's wrong?" he ventured "Maybe I can help." Cautiously he
tilted the almost porcelain white face upwards to stare into the pale, aqua
eyes that had the beautiful and deadly intelligence in them. They stared into
one another's eyes for what seemed a long while until the General broke the
silence in a voice that seemed so helpless Vincent couldn't believe that it was
Sephiroth, the top dog in Solider that leaned against him. "He left me…" this broken
voice was all that seemed to remain of what Sephiroth was. Vincent sat down
with him against the wall and quietly asked, really fearing wanting the answer,
"Who Seph? Who left you?" as the answer came Vincent's eyes went wide. "Cloud…"
came the quiet almost mute reply.
The ghost of you and me
When will it set me free
I hear the voices call
Following footsteps down the hall
Trying to save what's left of my heart and soul
'Cloud and
Sephiroth…Whoa! Time out…that's just very screwed up.' *Not if you think about
it dufus. * Chaos replied with a mental smirk in Vincent's mind. 'Who asked
you?!' came the poisoned reply * Why snap at me when you should think logically
first. * Chaos retorted coldly *Think about it why didn't Cloud strike a final
blow that should have killed him, you know a blow to the chest or something,
also if you think about it the child seemed infatuated with him anyway, so why
in the world are you surprised? * this
was said more teasing and gentle than Vincent expected. 'I…I…damn you.' * Haha
you know I am right. You…* 'Fine your right…HAPPY?' * Yes. * Vincent gazed down
into Sephiroth's eyes again and sighed. "I am sorry Seph. I can't bring Cloud
back to you but I can be here to help you if you need me to. 'Lord knows the
kid has had a drinking problem, so he might have caught Seph in it and raged
heaven and hell at him. Poor thing.' Vincent hugged Sephiroth like a mother
would a child. * Do you know what you are doing? * Chaos asked mildly 'Yes
making him feel better. Why?' * Jeez are you that stupid? Vincent, its
Sephiroth, the man that would have slit your throat for anything like five
months ago. * 'So, he needs a friend. We are so alike so I chose to be his
friend. Is that okay with you or are you just pissy about everybody I come in
contact with?' Chaos grumbled and was quiet 'Thank you, now whose right?'
Vincent stated almost giddily. Vincent was so busy being happy that he didn't
notice when Sephiroth's tears had stopped and he was now less than an inch from
Vincent's face smiling. He did notice however when Sephiroth pressed his lips
against Vincent's in an almost shy but powerful kiss. Vincent's eye went wide
and he couldn't think and Chaos screamed at him to get away. Vincent finally
relaxed and his arms snaked around the general's waist pulling him closer.
As the kissing became
more intimate Vincent finally broke it off and gasped as he spoke "How long has
this been happening Seph?" The aqua eyes fell to the floor "We haven't exactly
been together for a few weeks, he was drinking really bad one night and just
came in and before I could defend myself he beat me black and blue. The morning
after, I told him I had had enough and that I was leaving. I came here and he
found me and took to beating me again. I don't understand how or why he has
become more violent…but its terrible…he is like a possessed monster… " his head
fell as the tears rolled down his cheeks again, Vincent leaned over and held
him tightly 'Now you see why he needs a friend demon? He is as fragile as
anybody.' * I understand that Vincent. I don't however understand why Cloud,
the big-hearted clod, would be so violent. *
'I don't get that either but it's not important right now.'
Watching
the candle flicker out in the evening glow
"I understand now." Came
a rasping new voice. Sephiroth's head shot up and he trembled. Vincent turned
to see the form of Cloud hanging on the door holding a liquor bottle that even
Cid could not have handled in one night. He stunk of alcohol and seemed to have
blood on his mind, it shown in the fury of his eyes. As an instinct Vincent
held Sephiroth tight, shielding him and offering him support. "Cloud…why have
you come back? Have you come to hurt me some more?" the suffering in his voice
made Vincent pity him and made him love him more. "No. I came to kill you but
since I only put one bullet in the fucking gun I have to decide which one I
hate more you or him. I think him because you love him more than me, but then
again you're a messed up little queer with nothing else better to do then amuse
yourself with yourself." That made Sephiroth tremble more and he almost fell on
Vincent sobbing. 'DEAR GODS! What has Cloud done to him to make him this weak
pathetic thing.' * I told not to get involved didn't I? But no don't listen to
Chaos. * 'SHUT UP and help me smart ass!' * Fine, don't tie your balls in a
knot. *
I can't
let go
But Chaos could do
nothing because with a gun and drunk Cloud was pissed off and he help that gun
up and pointed at Sephiroth with wonderful accuracy and when he pulled the
trigger he had the luck of the draw as the bullet went for Sephiroth, Vincent
stepped in the way and on impact he knew it was fatal and he was die no matter
what or who wanted otherwise. He heard Sephiroth scream his name and charge
Cloud he heard the cracking of a skull, not knowing whether it was his own or
whether Cloud was hurting the silver-haired angle again. His last sight was
Sephiroth holding him and weeping and he had blood smeared on his face and as
he whispered, " I love you Vincent and you are avenged."
When
will this night be over
The light
was so bright and he saw his silver- haired angel holding out his hand to him
as he walked into a place so free that he wept whole-heartedly since that day…
