Chapter 1: The Pizza Joint
Tifa brushed her long black hair over her shoulder, and one eye, just to be more sassy. She stood in her apartment above her Seventh Heaven Pizza Joint, cleaning up, and thinking of new things to use as toppings. Seventh Heaven's pizza was the best on the planet, and Tifa had hired several orphans to work for her for minimum wage. If you think this impossible, two years ago she let Marlene Wallace run the place when she was only five. Tifa looked over, and found Marlene in the hallway, beside a bed with a small boy on it.
"Are you on a break?" Tifa asked.
Marlene pointed to the boy. His head was covered with bandages. "Denzel slipped and fell into the brick oven again!"
Tifa rolled her eyes. How many times did she have to tell the little ingrates to make sure the place was clean?
"He'll shake it off," Tifa said, and went back to her hair.
Denzel moaned.
"His skin is blistered and peeling!" Marlene cried.
Tifa rubbed her temples. "Today is Friday, one of our most busiest days! Do I smell the sweet scent of Pepperoni? No, I do not! I want both of you down there, now!"
Marlene took Denzel's hand, and lead him out of the bed. Denzel, not being able to see properly, walked into the bedroom door and dented it.
"That's coming out of your check!" Tifa yelled after them as they walked down the stairs.
To annoy Tifa more, the phone began to ring. She ignored it. After the fifth ring, she couldn't ignore it anymore. "Cloud doesn't work here anymore… I fired his ass long ago…" She muttered as she picked it up. "Seventh Heaven Pizza Joint Delivery Line. How may I help you?"
"Seven Days," A cruel voice whispered.
"Excuse me? Seven pizzas?"
The voice cleared their throat. "I'm looking for a delivery boy by the name of Cloud."
"He kept crying over his dead girlfriend, so I fired him."
"Well, that's a shame… he was the best delivery boy around."
"I have orphans on bicycles now." Tifa said.
"Well, you see, there's this new pizza company opening that is going to rival yours. If you can tell me where to find Cloud, I'll offer him a job."
Tifa thought a moment. Cloud did deliver pizzas quick on Fenrir, and if there really was a new pizza place opening, she was going to need him. "Did I say Cloud was fired? No, he's out delivering pizzas… don't call here again!" She slammed the phone down, grabbed her keys, and walked to the one place she knew he'd be.
