Chapter 3: The Bet
Yuffie giggles and flashes Sephiroth a mischievous smile as she throws his materia up and down with her right hand. "Glad to see you came Sephiroth, I didn't know if you would show up."
Sephiroth glares at her and his hand instinctively goes to the hilt of his sword, Masamune and smirks, then says to her, his voice dripping with malice, "You little bitch…..give me the materia now…..If you do I will kill you quickly…"
A group quickly gathers around, anticipating a bar fight as they whisper among themselves. The fat old bartender glances up and notices what is going on and steps in front of Sephiroth and draws himself up to his full height of all of 4 feet 9 inches. "Mister, if you are gonna fight take it outside…." The barkeep then turns to the group and raises his voice, "move on, nothing to see here folks…."
The group disbands, muttering, as Yuffie turns to the bartender, grinning. "Tender, there will be no fight…..but would you get that package I have you holding for me?" She smiles quirkily at him.
The tender nods and scurries away as Sephiroth loosens his grip on his sword, but proceeds to glare at Yuffie as he sits down. "What do you want with me girl?" He orders a drink and glances over at her.
Yuffie continues to toss the materia up and down with her right had and then she puts it in her belt pouch as the bartender arrives with a large package and her drink. She nods at the tender and turns to Sephiroth, her hands wrapped around the glass. "A bet….."
He takes another swig of his drink and looks at her. "What?"
"You heard me Sephiroth….I'm going to, or hoping to, make a bet with you…" Says Yuffie, grinning like a cheshire cat as she awaits his response.
"A bet….with you….right….well let me hear it since I came all this way.." He sighs and then thinks I can tell I'm gonna need another beer…
Yuffie smirks and opens the package that contains two boxes. "Bet you can't guess what is in these boxes Sephiroth…"
"That is the bet? That is it?" Sephiroth asks. "Oh, and I think it is black materia," he says hopefully.
"Wrong Sephiroth!" Yuffie tears the paper off the boxes, revealing them to be filled with twenty-five pounds of candy each, all of it solid chocolate. "I bet you that you can't eat more chocolate than me."
"You want to challenge me to a CANDY EATING CONTEST?!?!?! That is absurd….." He orders another beer and shakes his head.
"Yes…..if you win you get you black materia back and if I win…" Yuffie grins.
"And if you win….?" Sephiroth inquires, raising one silvery eye brow slightly.
"Just wait and see," Says Yuffie, grinning impishly.
***YES! Next chappie done….keep the reviews coming, good feedback makes me type faster!!! Hope ur liking the story! And yes, I do know that Sephiroth is SOOOOOO out of character that it isnt funny…but gotta jet! Love ya guyz!***
