Last Time: "Oh, I just assumed that was why you came." Garnet orbs watched her like a hawk. 'Why won't she look me in the eyes? Maybe. . . Because I. . . Am a monstrosity. . . A monster. . .'

"But. . . Thanks." She looked up, her grey meeting his crimson, and a grin crossing her Wutain features. Slowly, she turned and walked toward the room she was to stay in.

Chapter Two: Unexpected Visitor

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

He sat straight up in bed and saw a short brunette burst suddenly through the door.

"Yuffie? What's wrong?"

"Eh heh. . . S-sorry, V-V-Vinnie. . . There's something. . . in my room. . ."

Vincent got out of his bed, unconsciously grabbing his Death Penalty. He caught the seventeen-year-old's gaping stare at his pale, well-chiseled chest. A faint smirk played on his pale lips.

"If this is all over a rat," he said, his monotone voice drenched in. . . sarcasm? "You're sleeping outside with Victoria."

'Did Vinnie just make a funny!?' "Eh heh! Not funny, Vampy! I'm not afraid of any rat! I'm not afraid of any-" BOOM! "Eeyagh!"

"-Thing except thunder?" he finished sarcastically.

"Boy, Vinnie," she said with the same sarcasm. "You're on a roll tonight!"

'Hm. . .Vampy just keeps crackin' off jokes,' Gallion Beast commented.

Hellmasker giggled dumbly. 'Yeah! I haven't seen him like this since. . . Wait, I've NEVER seen him like this!'

'He's always brooding and moping about,' Chaos commented.

'It's just because I'm tired, tonight.'

Death Gigas chuckled at the human's pitiful excuse. 'Are you? Because your mind is fully awake and a living hell!'

"So. . . Ya gonna check it out, or what?"

The "vampire" nodded and walked nonchalantly to her room, her hiding behind him. The door swung dramatically open with an easy kick from his sock-covered foot.

"Ah! I TOLD you it wasn't a rat!"

"Lucrecia?"

The woman stumbled forward and collapsed into the 6' tall man's arms. "Vincent, I-"

"Shhh. . . Come on." He picked up the long-haired woman, his claw under her knees and hand supporting her back. Within moments, she fell asleep in his arms.

"So. . ." Yuffie said quietly as they headed down to a room with a couch. "This is Lucrecia?"

Vincent nodded. 'She. . . is alive? Not behind the waterfall anymore?'

'Something's not right,' Hellmasker said seriously.

'I don't care,' Vincent replied. 'My beloved Lucrecia. . .'

Chaos let out a rumbling growl. 'Even the ninja knows it. Look at her, she's eyeing her with mistrust. Listen to your inner demons, Valentine.'

'Look at her!' Death Gigas practically screamed through Vincent's mind. 'That's not the Lucrecia you once knew!' Their pleas were a no-go.

Yuffie struggled to keep up with her own mind. 'She's Lucrecia? I don't see anything remarably wonderful about her. Is that a silver streak in her hair? Gawd, how old is she?' Another thought struck her. 'How old is Vinnie?' She looked at his face, her grey eyes curious. 'He doesn't look any older than 27. But still. . . How long was he in that coffin? 20 years? So he'd be. . . ACK! 47!? No way! Gross-ness!!! He's OLD!'

"Vinnie?"

He looked up and blood-colored orbs met storm-filled. 'Her eyes are pretty, aren't they?' Gallion Beast said out of the blue.

He ignored the demon. "Yes?"

'Was that a question to her or answer for Gallion?' Hellmasker said with a giggle.

"Well, I. . . Something isn't. . . Isn't quite right. I-" she shook her head. "I'm going to bed." She pulled up the shirt so that her shoulder wasn't showing anymore.

"Sweet dreams," the vampire muttered.

She turned around to face him. "Hm? Didja say somethin'?" she asked with a yawn.

"Good night."

"Oh. . . Night, Vincent. . ." She walked out of the room.

'Uh-oh!' Death Gigas said jokingly.

'What?' Chaos asked for Vincent.

'She called him VINCENT. Heh heh heh.'

Vincent looked at the woman and allowed the demon's words to sink in. 'She. . . Did, didn't she? I wonder why. . .'

The sleeping woman stirred. "Vincent?"

"Lucrecia, what happened? You were in the cave behind the waterfall, then. . ."

A smile graced her pretty face. "You know, you've aged so little." A slim, graceful hand touched his cheek, brushing long raven strands out of his face. "And your hair is so long, now. . . And your eyes." She let her hand drop from his face.

Garnet orbs met her chocolate. "Where have you been?"

A small gasp came from behind the two, then a loud shriek. The demon-injected man spun around to see Yuffie finishing off a rather large rat. "Eww!"

'Turn back around!' Chaos shouted mentally.

Heeding the advice, the dark-haired man's went wide in. . . fear, perhaps? With inhuman strength, Lucrecia brought Vincent's neck down and fangs pierced the skin. A green haze set his mind at ease and relaxed his body.

'Fight it!' Something seemed to be resisting, but still got shoved into the back of his mind.

"Vincent!" cried a startled girl from behind him. He felt himself slip away, then a metallic taste in his mouth. "Get out, you vampire bitch!"

CRACK! All went black for him.

!!!

'Ah! What the fuck is she!?' She swung the chair at the Lucrecia vampire. It connected with a sickening CRACK! The now very pissed vampire took a running leap through the window, her white lab coat fluttering wildly out behind her.

'Vinnie? Did she bite him? What the hell?' She kneeled beside the slumped over body of Vincent Valentine. "V-Vinnie? Are you alive?" He had blood smeared across his neck and face. She shook him. "Vincent!" Tears stung her eyes, though she refused to let them fall. "Dammit! Fine, let one of the demons come out then! Uhh. . ." She tried to remember one of their names, but only Chaos came to mind. "Chaos! Unleash Chaos!"

Crimson eyes snapped open. ". . . You called on me?" The voice was his, but the look in his eyes was completely different.

"I did," her voice shook and she fell back on her butt. "Chaos, right?"

"Correct. Hm. . ." He watched her get up. "Help me up, please." She did so, only to be forced into a tongue-filled kiss.

The startled ninja pulled awat and slapped him across his, or rather Vincent's, face. His arms remained locked around her waist. "You damn perverted bastard! VINNIE! Get this fucking perverted demon away from me! VINCENT!"

"Chaos," the evil-looking man growled as Vincent took back over. The short brunette buried her face in his bare chest and sobbed. He looked down at her, then wrapped his arms around her to comfort her.

'Heh! I win!' Gallion Beast said smugly.

'Pardon?' Vincent countered.

'Don't deny it, VINNIE!' Death Gigas replied. 'You like her! You might get laid for the first time since Lucrecia!'

'And we get to watch,' Hellmasker sang happily.

'You perverted bastards!'

The four buried themselves in the back of Vincent's mind again.
