Vincent was on his knees from the intense pain physically and mental. Yuffie had been the only one who returned the love he held, the first and only one. He loved, no, loves that girl. He cares not for how there age differences sets them apart. Chaos is right. It's the love that counts. Not the age. Now what would he do? She was gone... forever... he would never hear her beautiful voice ever again. Never feel her push herself against him. Never to see her full of life. Never to even feel her warm lips and body against his. She was gone. He had never loved anyone as much as her and now she gone. Brutally murdered for an unknown reason. All because of some stupid Materia. His love was gone. It felt as if his very soul had been ripped out of him. He felt... lifeless... weak... he felt as if he was dead too... He honestly wish he was... if he was... he would be with Yuffie... he would be with his Yuffie...
Tears flowed down his face like over flowing rivers. The sobbing was uncontrollable. He felt worthless. He had been unable to protect her in anyway. God it couldn't end this way.
Cloud felt just as bad as anyone. But he felt worse for Vincent. Even if him in Yuffie hadn't know that they knew they were in love, even if it was obvious, he knew Vincent would never ever get over this. None of them would. He couldn't even imagine how the other of the team would take this. He helped Tifa to her feet, who was crying in her hands. He whispered something in Tifa's ear she nodded and continued crying as they slowly left the room, closing the door behind him. He knew that Vincent needed some time alone...
Vincent slowly got to his feet and walked over to where Yuffie's body lay and fell to his knees again. He picked her up and held her against him. She... was cold... He cried in her hair. Refusing to grasp that she was gone. It just couldn't be.
"Yuffie... please don't die..." he begged.
"I love you too much for you to die... please wake up..." he sobbed.
The Materia she had been holding began to glow... this time it glowed a golden color... It was a soft color...
Vincent was still sobbing and gasped when he heard "Vincent?"
