Chaotic Damnation
By Pegasia Silverfeather
"Understanding"
He looked at the small woman that was soundlessly resting on the bed. Could it actually be possible that the young woman was undergoing the same punishments as him? The same vile torturous punishment of a separate mind. One so violent that it manifests itself with your body and destroys anything in it's path.
Shaking the hideous thoughts from his angst mind, the jaded man pondered in the shadows.
"Vincent?" A weak voice called from the bed.
"Yes, Yuffie?"
"Maybe we can help each other." She said looking blankly at the ceiling, almost as if it wasn't even there.
"Hmmm?"
"Can't you see. It, the... demons... aren't a punishment... just a torture. One that can help and hurt." She said wearily.
"Perhaps. Go to sleep, Yuffie." He said and let his mind continue.
A soft sigh filled the room and she closed her glowing eyes.
'Damnation? Chaos? Are they the same?' He thought. 'Brothers in their heathenus world perhaps?'
'DAMNATION?'
'What? Chaos? Are you speaking?'
'WHERE IS DAMNATION?'
'Nowhere that you need to know.'
'WHERE IS SHE?'
'She?'
'WHERE IS DAMNATION? TELL ME!'
'Damnation is residing in a friend. One who does not deserve such tortures. Nothing in the ways of you or Damnation.'
A scream was heard and Vincent's eyes flew open. Yuffie was on the floor, her body being thrown in all directions and her muscles bulged and finally large white and red feathered wings thrust themselves from her back as her fingers dug into the white sheets that were wrapped around her legs. Claws formed from her fingers and her body shifted to that of some demonic angel. It's white and red body similar to the twisted Chaos.
A shrill scream echoed from the walls.
"Chaos, you reside in this... man. Show yourself!" A deep and menacing version of Yuffie's own voice beckoned.
Vincent felt the heathen within him turn painfully in his blood willing him to transform into the beast yet he bottled up the emotion and took control.
"Yuffie! Control it. You can." He said threw grit teeth.
A flash of light filled the room as the creature reformed into that of the tiny shinobi. "Vincent!" She said as she collapsed to the floor.
"Yuffie, so that was Damnation? Obviously it has something to do with Chaos." Vincent said as he walked towards her.
As he knelt down and gazed into the red eyes of the girl, his body felt feverish and his insides twisted with an un-known emotion.
Yuffie looked into his eyes as he peered into hers. His raven hair fell and surrounded his face. The smell of faded lavender filled her senses.
'...Chaos.'
"Vincent?" She asked and he did not respond in any way. "Vincent?"
A warm, human hand wrapped around her shoulder and drew her close. "Yes, Yuffie?"
"I think we should leave. We need to go somewhere secluded. Away from everybody. Otherwise... I'm scared of what will happen." She said as she gave him a hug.
"Good idea. Any Ideas as to where to go." He asked.
"The mountains outside of the Icicle inn. Nobody sane would go there."
"Cloud-"
"Proves my point!" She said sarcastically.
"Ok, if it's what you wish." Vincent said and patted her back in an odd display of misplaced condolence.
"So it's all set. We leave tomorrow. Oh and Vincent?" She said as she pulled away.
"Yes?"
"You can have the bed. I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight." She said as she made her way to a ready desk.
"I remember a time when there would have been more then a few comments about sleeping in a closet in what you just said. You have matured a lot." He said as he picked the tangled sheet off the floor.
"You think so?" Yuffie asked seriously. "Thanks."
"Your Welcome."
He remade the bed and sat at the edge while carefully removing his boots and setting them on the floor. Bringing his feet up he sat in the lotus position meditating for a few minuets.
'So, Chaos, what do you want with Damnation anyway?'
'SHE IS MINE'
'So you are enemies?'
'NO'
'Then what are you?'
'ONE!'
'One? As in the same? Together?'
A predatory growl was heard and Vincent snorted and humor of the thought.
"What's up Vincent?" Yuffie asked from her desk.
"Nothing." He said a slight smirk spread crookedly across his face. It faded quickly. Yawning he pulled the covers up and went to sleep.
Yuffie wrote about the incident and the way that the creature within had spoken threw thought in a small scroll.
"The other creature, Chaos, has brought a strange and indefinable reaction towards Damnation. Strangely it has demanded the creatures presents over the appearance of its host, Vincent.
Mentioning Vincent, why can't he see that he was never really punished for sins, which he never really committed, and that maybe a human and a demon can co-exist in one body peacefully. Or perhaps I will learn what he has in some twisted way, that these beings are there to destroy our very being.
Our souls are their controlling force. Hojo's research said that the demons react to hormones. Anger, fear and frustration all have the same effect on a human's hormones and all three can trigger a transformation. Perhaps, the demons can trigger hormones as well. Now that is a scary thought. A beast that can choose to trigger it's self.
Ok, I'm scaring myself here. Let's not break a dam, or rather Damnation. Goodnight. "
She sighed and rolled the scroll placing it in her satchel. Looking over at the figure in the bed she sighed.
'Great time for me to decide that I'm tired.' She thought and pulled a spare blanket out of the closet and curled up on the chair and dazed into space. 'Goodnight, Damnation' She thought as she closed her eyes. 'Another night of fits. Oh joy. I wonder what Vincent dreams of?'
"VINCENT?'
'Damnation?'
'WHO IS VINCENT?'
'The man who holds Chaos. You know the tall guy you tried to rip limb from limb by demanding Chaos' presence.' Yuffie thought rhyly.
'YOU CARE FOR THIS VINCENT?'
'He is my friend, nothing more.'
'ARE YOU SO SURE?'
'Yes, now let me sleep. Why does this interest you anyway?'
'CHAOS IS ME. WE ARE ONE. VINCENT IS YOU. '
'Oh, you mean that it he is your kind. I can understand that. Now, silence.' She demanded and proceeded on the train to lala land.
When they both awoke, not long after dawn, they set out to the icy cliffs of the Ice capped mountains. Yuffie acquired a new wardrobe and dawned it as the occasion called for it. Slowly over time, her normal shorts and tank-top turned into a pair of light blue jeans, high black leather boots, black tank-top with a heavy weaved- white sweater over it, and a Black and white baseball cap. Vincent, being Vincent, well... Was Vincent. Black, black, black. Nothing really changed there.
The trip up a particular mountain region was more tedious then it was last time. They climbed up the icy ledges with much difficulty and peril. Vincent lead as Yuffie followed in his exact footsteps. Snow turned Yuffie hands red and numb and grasping ledges became harder and harder. Finally, her numb fingers couldn't grasp the ledge and her foot slipped out from under her and she fell backwards, head first. Suddenly, her plunging fate was paused as if time and stood still.
"What the?" She looked up to see a human hand clutching the leather boots in an iron grip. "Thanks Vince- Hey wait! I see something." Her eyes focused and centered on a shadow on the snow. "I think I found something!" She said.
"If you say the mountain floor, I swear I am going to let go." Vincent said monotone.
"Uh...no that wasn't what I was going to say but the blood is rushing to my face here." She said as she scrambled her way into the snow and around a small jut of the mountain where she flipped and dropped to on her feet. Peering into the shadows an Idea struck her. Pulling out a specially made metal shurikan she shot it at the snow wall. A sheet of ice shattered revealing a cave. "Vincent. I have just found the hideout."
"What hideout?"
"The one I just found, Duh!" She said rolling her eyes. "Men, have to question everything." She said as she walked over to the cave entrance. It was a small and narrow passage but as went further in it widened into a small round cavern.
"This will work." A voice said beside her.
Yuffie shrieked and jumped up in the air then fell to her knees. " VIN-CENT Valentine! DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN!' She said loudly. Her and rose to her chest as she took a few long deep breaths. "I am trying to stay calm. Unlike Mr. Personality, I am a NORMAL human."
" I thought you were just loud. Anyways I didn't mean to frighten you. Sorry." He said
"Ok. Let's unpack." She said as she pulled a giant rock from a pile.
"What are you doing?" Vincent asked.
"You do want to keep warm, right?" She said cocking a brow.
"And, how is a rock going to do that?" He asked.
"Watch and learn." She said as she dragged the stone to the center of the room. Pulling out a materia orb she summoned the magic and held it till the stone glew red. "See. Told ya." Yuffie said as she went to her bag.
"Impressive." Vincent said as he pulled out an ice materia and created a sheet to cover the entrance.
"Ok, now what are YOU doing?" She asked curiously.
Putting a finger to his lips he raised a clawed finger and cut away a semi large chunk of the thin ice and covered it with a light, yet large slab of black stone.
"Efficient." She said mocking his monotone voice as she inspected the makeshift door.
Vincent rolled his eyes and went over to the huge heap of baggage in the center of the room. Vincent grabbed a bag and began to remove things. "Yuffie?"
Yuffie turned and looked a Vincent. "Yes?"
"Does Damnation talk to you?' He asked.
"When doesn't she?" Yuffie asked. "Believe it or not she talks more then you do."
"Chaos only talks when he want's to."
"Yeah well I have to pull out commands with Damnation." She said putting a finger to her lips.
"Commands?" Vincent asked.
"Yes, like a dog. Down! Quite! NOT ON THE CARPET!"
Vincent lost it and snorted with unexpected merit. Smiling slightly he shook his head.
"Wow!"
"What?"
"Do that again."
"Do what?"
"Smile! Do that again."
Vincent cocked a brow. "No."
"Oh come on! Smile!" Yuffie said rolling up her sleeves.
"No!" Vincent said
"Oh I will make you smile." She said as she stomped over and tackled the tall man turning him so his back was to the floor. Mercilessly she attacked the side of his ribs and he just looked at her funny. Just as she was about to give up her finger brushed against a part of his stomach. A slight giggle passed his lips. "Oh I just found a tickle spot no?"
Vincent's eyes widened and he tried to squirm from out from under her but she attacked his ticklish spot without a woe.
"N...Not.... Fair!" Vincent gasped.
"Oh really o'riley?" She asked.
Vincent took a moment to shove her down and began his attack. Unfortunately, unlike Vincent, Yuffie was ticklish. VERY ticklish.
In between uncontrollable laughter Yuffie would let out a lighthearted warning. Suddenly as Vincent and Yuffie ran out of breath they stopped and looked at eachothers eyes. Two magnetic sets of red orbs and behind them a burden similar to their own. Silence fell as Vincent's hand moved across her stomach without noticing, their eyes never parting. Then She blinked. Vincent removed his hand and smiled.
"Told ya." She said punching him in the arm lightly.
Shaking his head he went back to work unpacking. 'What just happened?' Vincent asked himself as he watched Yuffie scamper off towards the back of the room where she unrolled two large fur beds. Her ebony strands fell in semi-curled tendrils into her face. He watched as a look of distaste crossed her face and she savagely pulled her hair back and held it in place with a Black scrunchie.
An unshakable desire to run his fingers threw her hair was building as he watched. How strange this was to him. Turning away he began to unpack all of the pots and pans.
Yuffie opened her saddlebag and pulled out her scroll and held it in her hand. 'I don't want him reading this. I'm sure he'd understand if I told him not to read it.' She thought. Turning around, she faced none other then Vincent, who was standing there with a leather covered book in his hand. A thought crossed her mind and she knodded.
"You don't read mine, I won't read yours." She said. Vincent shook his head and walked away. 'Well great minds think alike'
'WHAT'S SO GREAT ABOUT YOUR MIND?'
"Hey!" Yuffie yelled.
Vincent turned to her "What?"
"Nothing but a sarcastic demon in my head." She said wrinkling her brow.
Vincent shook his head and went back to unpacking.
Yuffie and Vincent unpacked what they had brought and settled next to the now dimming embers. "Your turn." Yuffie said tossing Vincent a fire materia. Quickly the stone was aglow and everything was warm again. Yuffie pulled a pot out and emptied a can of soup in the pot and set it to warm. "So, any ideas on what to do know?" Yuffie asked.
"Eat?" He said pointing to the soup.
She grabbed the pot and poured it into two mugs. "I was thinking that we could try to understand them better. You know, see if we can work out a mutual understanding. "
Vincent raised a brow. "I told you mine doesn't talk."
Yuffie rolled her eyes. "That's because they adopt some of our own characteristics. I'm a sarcastic blabbermouth, so Damnation is that way. You are... Well to be quite honest, Stoic and annoying as hell sometimes. You only say what needs to be said."
"I never thought of it like that." Vincent said.
"Basically if you want to get an understanding you have to 'talk' with it. So it won't talk unless you do." She said shaking her head. "Me and Damnation had a semi-agreement. She doesn't take over unless I'm really physically threatened. But something about Chaos set her off big time."
"Chaos said that they are one. That she is his. What ever that means."
"Funny, Damnation said that they were one as well. Hmmm. I wonder what it means?" She said.
'THAT'S NOT WHAT I SAID. I SAID THAT CHAOS IS ME AND VINCENT IS YOU.'
'Oh big deal Ms. Thang. Who cares?'
'TELL HIM'
'Why?'
'TELL HIM!'
'Ok, ok. Touchy now aren't we Ms. Bossy boots?'
"Hey, Vincent. Lil' Ms. Thang said to tell you that what she actually said was 'CHAOS IS ME. WE ARE ONE. VINCENT IS YOU. ' What ever that means."
Vincent sat and pondered. Oh well.
"Vincent, I'm going to sleep. Don't let the ember burn down to quick, it'll crack. K?"
"OK. Goodnight" He said as she went to sleep. 'Ok, Chaos. Time to understand.'
'UNDERSTAND WHAT?'
'Each other.'
"YOU ARE HOST. I AM CHAOS."
'First off, I'm Vincent.'
'FINE, VINCENT'
'And what is with this 'CHAOS IS ME. WE ARE ONE. VINCENT IS YOU. ' Stuff that Damnation said to Yuffie?'
'I CANN'T TELL YOU.'
'Yeah, whatever. Goodnight Heathen.'
Well what do you think? TELL me puhlease
