Bunkai Ni± -- Where they only suppressed?

            Yuffie had stayed up late chatting to the group of AVALANCHE, desperately trying to forget the unpleasant incident earlier. It was hard to do since she remembered and had lied. It was as if a wave of culpability was drowning her because of her lie. Wasn't it just a simple lie? Yuffie asked herself, now lying in bed. So much has happened in one day for her, she did not think this would ever happen to her. She learned so much about herself in one day as well; she ended up being some one that she did not expect to be. However, once her memories returned she was sure that she would revert to how she was.

            The many references to her and Wutai made sense now to her, it was her birthplace, where she lived, and there her father ruled. She only had one brother left, and he was not the successor for some reason. Apparently, the news from there was she and her brother were suppose to be married, until she "vanished", leaving Wutai in disorder. Tifa mentioned that her father was getting old, and wants to hurry up and get a successor.

Yuffie sighed at this, wondering why her life was so complicated? She never asked to be an heir to the Wutainese throne.

            Aside from about a two hour lecture on her and Wutai given by Cid and Tifa, Yuffie learned about some of her personal taste, such as her hobbies, interests, style in clothing and more. When Yuffie learned of the clothes she wore, she gasped in horror, wondering why she had hideous taste, causing every one to laugh hard for a good while. 

Yuffie rolled over in her bed onto her side, thinking more as she heard the door open. She glanced toward the open door and saw a tall figure come in.

            Yuffie felt panic overwhelm her again, knowing the figure was obviously not Tifa but that of a certain man in red. He just sat at the edge of bed, and placed something that felt like a bouquet of flowers.

            "Yuffie…my actions earlier were unacceptable. I must admit it was because the last I saw you was the best day of my life and the saddest. I hurt you…something I thought I would never do seeing you are so dear to me, but obviously, the feeling is not mutual anymore. I just came to say I'm sorry and good night…if you wish, I'll even stay away from you if it's what you want." Vincent explained and then started to go stand to leave again.

            "Vincent…I'm sorry I don't remember…I wish I could." Yuffie said trying to sound all right,

            Saying that made it feel like daggers were stabbing into her as she said those words. She was quite glad they were in the dark so she would not have to see the expression on his face.

            "It's alright Yuffie…don't worry about it." Vincent replied and added, "Good Night"

            "Good Night…and thanks for the flowers…Casablancas I believe…my favorite." Yuffie replied, shocked by the fact she said it was her favorite.

            "Your making progress already." Vincent said cheerfully and then closed the door behind him.

            Yuffie set the flowers next to her on the nightstand in the dark and laid back down. She sighed and thought, he is not so bad. She rolled onto her side and fell asleep with a big yawn.

            [Dream] It was raining heavily, as she stumbled through the streets at night. She was cold, bleeding, bruised, and wearing cloth wrapped around her bust and thighs. Even her clothes were soaked with rain, dirt and blood. She received many stares as she passed through the crowds in Neo Midgar. She needed to go see Tifa because she would help her. How could father do this to me? She thought as she started crying. Yuffie saw lighting in the sky and started to run, not minding the glass shards lodging into her feet.

She ran until she reached the back of a building and collapsed against it, seeing dirty dumpsters full of trash and litter everywhere. Her feet now ached as she now noticed the pain and cried harder. "Why Father! Why! How could you let him do this to me." Yuffie screamed to the sky. She would never return to Wutai, ever. How could she? What had happened there was etched into her mind forever, never to leave.

            In Wutai…[flashback]

            "I've decided to have you marry Kenji and make you two joint rulers." Her father said as he read papers from the council.

            "Father! It's incest! Kenji?! Please tell me your joking. Why?!" She yelled

            "Your mother put in her will that you would be the heir, I must respect it even if I don't agree, I think you are unfit to rule, hence the reason you need a joint ruler, besides, I had always wanted a son to rule not a daughter. It is not a daughter's duty unless the ruler is deceased. To have what both your mother and I want, I have decided this. Either you say yes or I will say yes for you." He explained sternly.

            "How could you!! I hate you. I am ashamed to be related you and Kenji. You two have no honor! You have disgraced our family and the future generations of this family. Mother was the only honorable one in this generation." Yuffie yelled and would have continued if she were not silenced by her father's hand.

            Yuffie shook her head from the shock, and looked at he father's angry face. She placed her hand her cheek that ached with a red glow. She could feel some blood in her mouth and spit it down on to her father's feet. This only enraged him more.

            "You little chit, you will marry him wither you love him or not. I don't even see why your mother loved you so much seeing that you turned out to be like this." He yelled and hit her again.

            He was about to again when he heard the door open and he saw Yuffie's brother, Kenji. He walked in awkwardly with a bottle of alcohol and wobbled as he reached his father.

            "Take your little bitch and keep her away from me, do as you please with her and then bring her back here. Where I will take care of things."  Her father snapped.

            Kenji grabbed Yuffie's arm violently and dragged her away, drinking out of the bottle. Let this be a lesson Yuffie. Her father thought and returned to his papers. Yuffie started to cry silently as she was being dragged to her room, she did not want to be near Kenji. He was the only person she feared. He was violent, ignorant, an alcoholic, and a pervert. She was a witness and a victim to it while growing up with him. Her mother was the only person that cared, and her father only cared with her mother was around.

            They reached her room and he flung her in there, walked in as well and locked the door. He smiled evilly and drank more from the bottle. She looked at him with fear as she looked into his eyes and she only saw pure madness. How could this be happening to her? She thought.

            "Father says I can take you whenever I want, and I want to know. I don't even have to wait until the coronation." He said and hiccupped.

            This made Yuffie cringe in fear more; she knew exactly what he meant. He wanted some action, the kind Yuffie would only do with one man, and that was Vincent. She screamed as Kenji pounced onto her, pinning her to the bed. She screamed louder to be silenced by Kenji's fist. She whimpered while he struggled to keep her down and finish what he started.

            It seemed forever in her mind, when it was actually only ten to twenty minutes. When he was done, he withdrew from her, grabbed cloth from the curtains, wrapping it around her bust and fastened it and then another sheet to cover her womanhood. He grabbed her wrist and made her stand up, yanking her out of the room toward their father's office. When they got there, he threw a crying Yuffie to the floor in front of him, nodding to his father.

            "Time for the chit to experience what happens when you insult the Kisaragi family." Her father said, grabbing her by her hair and yanking her up.

            She screamed in pain and was dragged over to several chains, there, Kenji fastened them to her ankles and wrists while her father pulled out something Yuffie remembered from when she was little. The whip, made from bamboo, was always used on servants that were incompetent. She remember the pain she saw in the servants eyes as her mother tried to convince her father to stop after a few hits.

            Her father pulled the whip back and then let it go forward, striking Yuffie on the back, causing her to scream. He hit her again on the back, and then her arms, and then her legs, to her back again, her chest and stomach, until she was covered in blood.

            "Get her out of my site!" Her father yelled and turned around, putting the whip away.

            Kenji undid the chains to be pushed aside from Yuffie, who started running toward the wide open doors to the balcony. Kenji started to run after her but stopped, holding his head in pain, he could feel his hangover-taking place. She ran to the balcony and then out onto it, looking over. She saw a pool of water below, she saw guards now coming after her as well as her father. She jumped over the railing and toward the water, hoping she would not miss it. She closed her eyes and held her breath as she finally felt water around her. She swam to the surface with difficulty and then lifted herself out, running toward the mountains…

[End of flashback]

            "Why father…why?" she cried harder and then started to whisper aloud.

            "It's a dream…It's only a dream…it never happened…I was never raped and never was injured…it was all my imagination…"

            Yuffie started to fall into a sleep when she heard some one yell her name; the lady dropped her trash bags and ran to her.

            "Yuffie! Yuffie!" The woman yelled.

[End of dream]

            "Yuffie!" Tifa yelled shaking her.

            Yuffie jumped nearly 10 feet when she saw Tifa there in front of her. Tifa looked relieved to see she was awake and then saw Cloud and Nanaki behind her, looking just as worried.

            "You were asleep for so long I became worried…" Tifa explained.

            "I'm sorry." Yuffie replied quietly whispering, "it was only a dream"

            "What was only a dream?" Tifa asked, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

            "Huh? What? Oh, it was nothing. Just complaining about nothing." Yuffie said, looking around.

            Cloud and Nanaki silently left the room so Yuffie could change with Tifa's help. Yuffie looked in the mirror and remembered her dream, it was only a dream she kept telling herself.

            "I'm going to use the bathroom to brush my hair and stuff." Yuffie told Tifa.

            "Ok, don't take too long. Other people need to use the bathroom too." Tifa replied.

            "K." Yuffie said and headed into the bathroom, looking around.

            She closed the door behind her and started rummaging through the drawers. She found brushes, curling irons, aspirin, tampons, razors, shampoos, lotions, a mustache and beard trimmer and a lot more. Yuffie pulled out the razors, the aspirin and then found a bottle of medication. It was labeled; "Anti-depressant" only take one table a day with water or food. Patient: Cid Highwind, Doctor: Leon Cummings. If more then the prescribed dose taken, it will cause throwing up, deliriousness, headache, and possibly death if taken in huge doses. "

            "I can handle pain, I didn't want to remember, I suppressed it and forgot it and now it has come back…I can't live in shame…" Yuffie opened the bottle, stuck three tablets in her mouth, filled her mouth with water, and swallowed. She then grabbed the aspirin and grabbed five of the tablets, swallowing them quickly and then looked at her wrists. She grabbed the razor she had found and ran it against her wrist with lots of pressure, wincing at the pain.

            "You almost done in there Yuffie?" Tifa asked outside the door twenty minutes later.

            "Yuffie?" she asked when she heard silence for a minute.

            She opened the door to see Yuffie slouched against the wall by the toilet, hands bleeding with a razor in her left hand. In her right hand was the bottle of aspirin and a spilt bottle of medication on the floor in front of her, she was not moving at all. Yuffie's head was down, some of her shoulder length hair in her face.
