Chapter 31- So Many Thoughts...So Many Questions...

Vincent wasn't too eager when he heard in thirty minutes they would be landing and they would go and get Reeve. Vincent Yuffie and Cloud were the ground units, they would be spotted first If it was a trap. Red XIII, Tifa and Cid were on the left side. Which Left Barret and Cait Sith they would be on the right. Vincent sighed, he knew everything was going to go wrong….and someone might get hurt seriously like…Yuffie. Vincent slapped his forehead with his hand, annoyed at himself. He just couldn't get her to leave his thoughts….always when he tried to think about something important she would just intrude his thoughts. Chaos wasn't making it any easier, he was always adding his little comment about this or that. It got annoying after a while. He wondered what Yuffie was doing… he then sighed…Forgot….guard duty. Could you get any denser Vincent? Vincent just growled and made his way down to where Jet was to guard him.

" Gawdfammit!!" Yuffie picked up her pillow and threw it against the wall. She was annoyed, and wasn't happy about it. Usually she didn't think about something so seriously but this needed much the thought. Is it a trap? Or does he really need our help? Maybe Kayabusa is playing with our minds..? Does Vincent love me? Wait, where does that fit in the category? Arg! I am never gonna get anything done with him on my mind. It's not that I love him…or is it? Hey! Conscience wasn't invited in this conversation the last time I checked. I can bud in whenever I want. Well, I am trying to give some serious con-consi- arg! Consideration dear.

Shuddup! I just need to go over these plans and worries in my head for a moment, if you don't mind? *sigh*I worry for you… And why is that? Because I think you should tell him instead of making him wait… But! We still have to rescue Reeve, and and……..And what? Celebrate, then you return to Wutai to take your place as leader….what kind of life is that. And to think I suppose to be saying what you are saying and what I am saying is what you are supposed to be saying. Yuffie shook her head, Darn conscience. I heard that… Naw really ya think? Yuffie sighed and walked over to her bed….maybe she should tell him.. but what if he rejected her….then what would she do..? Simply nod your head, thank him for listening and continue looking for another someone?

But, I love him…no one else ya know? Of course I know! I am your conscience!!! I read your every thought. too bad you never existed. Then you would never have that tiny voice in your head that tells you what is right, what is wrong and the consequences… EXACTLY! Yuffie rolled off her bed and walked over to the small closet in her room. Inside were boxes, some containing clothes, the others materia, armor, weapons, whatever else. She sighed, and grabbed a small little box in the waaaayyyy back. No one would be able to find it if they searched carefully, only she knew where it was. She grabbed the box and walked back over to her bed making sure to close the closet door. Yuffie placed the box on her bed and walked to over to the door locking it.

She opened the box and began to hum Cry of Leviathan. Inside the box contained another box, except it was a velvet box. She opened this and inside it contained a necklace. It had a silver chain, and it contained a small diamond. The color of the diamond was hard to tell due to the fact it was glowing with a blue hue around it. Yuffie picked the necklace up with delicate fingers and put it on. She knew that when they went to get Reeve she might have to use the power of the necklace. She now had two, the other one that she had on was glowing also. She stopped humming and smiled. Now she could see the other necklace clearly. It had one ruby gem/diamond. She smiled once more before putting the boxes away. Why did you do that?

Because I felt like it, anymore annoying questions? Yes, when are you going to tell him? Dammit! If it makes you happy, after we get Reeve. No it doesn't make me happy after Reeve. Why is that? One, I think he might get hurt, two who knows what might happen. Well, my reason is that it could interfere with the mission at hand. Are you taking anything? Not many missions you give much thought. Hell, you still got yourself involved in trouble even when you guys were about to face Sephiroth. That's' beside the point. Whatever. Yuffie sighed, and grabbed the empty boxes; putting them back where they belonged. She closed the closet door and walked to the other door unlocking it and stepping outside. She was going to visit Jet. So many thoughts, so many questions...

When Jet saw Vincent he didn't like what he saw. He could tell this guy was one of those duty people. They due their duty and fulfill it at all costs. He sighed, " So you are taking over?" Vincent didn't even glance at Jet as he walked over to the wall and leaned against it. His crimson eyes never leaving Jet. Jet glared at Vincent, hell his little inner demons were scared shit-less of this man. " So, Lucrecia really chose Hojo over you?" Vincent didn't even stiffen. He knew he was looking for a weakness, he had gotten over it.

" Where's Yuffie? I want to talk to my Yuffie.." Vincent glared murderously at Jet. When Jet looked Vincent dead in the eye he flinched. Vincent smiled slightly, I still have my effect even on complete idiots like him….Vincent, someone is coming. Fine, Chaos.... Vincent sighed, and walked over to the door opening it just in time to see Yuffie heading down. " Hey Vinnie! I just came here to talk to….Jet." Vincent didn't say anything, instead he raised an eyebrow at her. " Well, I decided it was about time he spilled."

Vincent gave her one more glance before moving out of her way and walking back towards Jet, knowing that she followed. Jet's eyes immediately lightened up seeing Yuffie. " Yuffie, how's that wound?" He grinned devilishly. Yuffie flinched slightly, while Vincent growled loud enough where only Jet could hear him. That was when Jet figured he had something figured out. Yuffie treated Vincent with a kind of kindness and compassion. He in return paid attention to her and protected her. Why else would he go after her attacker? Jet glared at Vincent, Vincent in return glared back. His glare never quavering. This Yuffie noticed, and sighed. Which caused Jet's attention to divert to her. " Jet, do you think Reeve could possibly have escaped the dungeon? Without any assistance at all?" Jet knew he was being interrogated, he looked at her coldly. "If you come close enough I might be able to tell you." Yuffie hesitantly took a step forward. Jet then lashed out at her.
