Dark Valentine
He awoke to the sound of someone opening the door to his secret chamber room. Vincent had last heard this sound 3 years ago. He had enjoyed (as much as he could have) his adventure and the people that had woken him but he wasn't sure that he was ready for another. I mean stoping an apocolypse from a crazed old guy is only fun once in a decade. Yet he heard the sound nevertheless and sure enough little time passed before light...ugh, painful light....flooded into his small coffin bed.
"Good morning gorgeous!"
Vincent heard a cute, loud, Aeris-like voice say. He shielded the bright white light with his hand and opened his eyes. He sat up. It was blurry at first but slowely he started to make out the figure infront of him. He could only see a silhouette of the looming body.
"Turn off the light" He said, emotionless.
"Oh sorry hun! There you go!" The girl took the flashlight's beam off of his eyes and stared at him with bright blue eyes.
Vincent examined the girl now that he could see. She was tall and blonde with blue eyes. She was wearing a pink shirt with no sleeves and with pink false fur all around the edges. She had a blue sweater over top that she had unbuttoned that went down to her feet. She was wearing blue shorts and a magenta criss-cross belt that looked slightly familiar to Vincent. He looked back up at her face and noticed that she was examining him as well.
"Who are you?" He asked while stepping out of his home for the past 2 and a half years.
"Oh me? Oh I'm Linzee, nice ta meetcha!" She put out a hand which Vincent casually stepped away from.
"Why have you awoken me?"
"Wo, you don't put off the whole vampire vibe now do ya?" Linzee said sarcastically. Vincent remained emotionless.
"Okay then! I have big news Mr. Vincent! You've got alot of old friends that have decided to come back from the dead!"
"..."
"Ya, Lets walk and talk because we don't exactly have all the time in the world, even though right now that wouldn't be much time anyway."
Linzee laughed nervously and looked over at the dark, shadowy, vampire-like being. He wasn't moving from his place in the corner and he still had no expression whatsoever on his pale face. Linzee motioned for him to come but after 2 minutes of waving her hand continuously towards the door he still hadn't moved so she decided to just tell him the low-down.
"Ok fine then, but its your fault when they get mad at us for being late. Just after Yuffie brought you back here, the Shinra made a new office near Costa Del Sol and started planning and junk. They started building new reactors and planning big things that I'll get to in a minute they were being really Shinra-ey." She smiled, Vincent listened. "Barret got really mad and kinda had a gun shooting session. Nobody could calm him down, not even Marlene! He just ran up to the Shinra building and starting shooting at all the windows and everything! It was crazy! I was just sitting in my office and suddenly all my windows broke! I was really pissed so..."
Vincent jerked forward.
"You work for Shinra?!"
"Past tense hunny, not anymore, I kinda got fired after they found out that I was helping Cloud and them out...Apparently thats a bad thing at Shinra. hum"
She sighed and looked off in the distance. Vincent's expression had finally changed. He was now attentive and annoyed. He waited for Linzee to continue and when she didn't he leaned forward at her. She looked towards him. He pushed his head back. He hadn't noticed it before, that shine. She continued.
"Sorry 'bout that hunny, Cloud said I would be spacey for awhile. Anyways, after Barret went on his rage thing I ended up putting him in our jail. That night I went and talked to him. Turns out he isn't that bad of a guy when he's not screaming and swearing and almost putting bullets in my head. So I got the keycard...I had to go through this really annoying treasure box and doors and vents thing to get it but I got it and I let him out. I pretended I was taking him to Corel Prison and then I stole a truck and we were outta there. Just like that."
"No one followed you?"
"Nope. No one."
"Don't you think that's kinda odd?"
"Maybe. Didn't really come to mind. Anyways, we all just lay low for awhile. We built the A NEW Sector Seven Slum near Gold Saucer and I helped make a few finishing touches and then we just went on with our lives. Shinra was still acting up, from what I had heard when I was working there was that the Turks had split up and could still not be found. The only one that eventually came back was Elena and she was severely dehydrated, she died. They are looking for the others, Rude and Reno but so far no luck. Also, they caught Cait Sith and he was outta there, or did you already know that?"
Vincent said nothing but leaned against the wall. Linzee continued.
"Apparently they're trying some kind of ressurection thingy to get Tseng and someone else back, POSSIBLY Sephiroth."
Vincent shifted and looked uneasy.
"Could it be Hojo?"
"Maybe, but I don't think so, he caused us...er....them alot of problems."
Vincent crossed his arms.
"Here comes the big news. About a week ago there was this HUGE earthquake. Suddenly there was a HUGE crack in the earth, like someone was cutting it open. It stayed open for a couple minutes and then closed up again. We went to where North Crater used to be it's now all mossy and gross like Midgar and you'll never guess what we found."
Vincent seemed like he didn't care but Lindsay continued.
"Footprints! We found 5 pairs of footprints! They all lead off into different places. So we're going to follow them and see who they are and where they are going. But we are worried that one of them might be Sephiroth or Hojo so wee need you to come with us. "
Vincent straightened up and finally said something.
"Then we'd better be on our way."
And with that he flapped his cloak in the air and walked away throught the basement door.
"HEY! Wait for me you big meany!"
He awoke to the sound of someone opening the door to his secret chamber room. Vincent had last heard this sound 3 years ago.
