CHAPTER NINE: A GIFT FOR SORA
Riku was searching for something when Sephiroth found him. "What are you doing?" Sephiroth asked as he watched Riku intently.
"I'm looking for something," Riku answered hastily.
"I can see that. Whatcha looking for?"
"The present for Sora."
"...What was it?"
"A box."
"Full of cookies?"
"Yeah, did you find it?"
"Uhmmmm......"
"SEPHIROTH!!!" Riku shouted. His face was blood red and there was steam coming off of it. "I can't believe this! Now I've got to go find him something else!"
"They were just cookies," Leon answered as he entered the room carrying a plate full of the cookies for Sora. "Just plain old sugar cookies with little stars and purple frosting."
Riku dropped to his knees and began swaying back and forth. "I can't believe this...They weren't just cookies! Those were really special!"
"What made them so great?" Yuffie asked. She jumped out of the closet with a cookie in her hands.
Riku glared at her and went back to shaking his head. "They were not just...They were his favorite kind. They stopped selling them last week. Now what do I get him?"
Aerith sat down beside him and patted his back. "You could always go to the mall. We could all go with you and help you pick something out."
Riku looked up at all the faces before him. The two angels, the body guards, and the zombies. He had grown fond of them these few days, though he'd never admit it. It was obvious they all liked him too, but did he really want to go shopping with them? "All right you guys, we can all go. I'll need some money though," replied smiling softly, wondering if he was doing the right thing. He was always being so darn nice and he hated it.
Cloud snickered and waved his hand at Riku. "We can take care of the money," he replied.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sora was running throughout the secret place gathering little pieces of junk to make a summoning star, much like the one he used to summon Cloud and Sephiroth. "I know just what Riku needs! Something to entertain him!" he laughed as he began to draw the star on the floor. Once he was finished drawing the star he began placing the items about. He really had no clue what he was summoning, but figured it was worth a shot trying to call something. "I sure hope this works," he said to himself as he set the last piece in place. The star was covered in marbles and had ten large red balls in the center. It began to glow pink and then suddenly the red balls turned into little bears! No, they weren't bears! Sora recognized them to be 10 moogles! "This is great!" he laughed. The moogles all looked at him with clueless expressions. "Hey you guys!" Sora yelled to them. "Why don't you entertain me?"
The moogles turned to him and made squeaking sounds. "Okay!" they all answered. "What do you want us to do?"
Sora thought for a moment. Weren't the moogles supposed to come with a special entertainment trait? At least the ones he summoned should. "Do what you do best," he told them.
All the moogles began to giggle. "Before we can do that. You've gotta guess what it is to activate our special ability!" they replied.
"Okay..." Sora thought about it for a long time. "You sing?"
"No."
"Cook?"
"No."
"Swim? Run? Tell jokes? Play music?
"No, no, no, close."
"Oh..then...do you..."
"Don't finish! We know exactly what you are about to say! Yes we do! Let us perform for you," the moogles said happily. They all talked at the same time, it was rather odd. They all got into a circle and began their special trait....
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Riku and the 13 presents left his house and were just about to head for the mall when they were stopped by Sora. He was followed by 10 moogles all walking in a row behind him, dancing happily as they walked. "Hi Riku! Here's your present!" Sora laughed as he directed all the moogles to their new master.
"Oh no! Not more alive things!" Riku cried in agony.
"Heheh!" Sephiroth laughed. "I've got more friends!" He picked up as many of them as he could and hugged them tight.
"Riku where are you going?" Sora asked Riku, noticing he had the entire bunch with him.
Riku scratched his head and looked at his odd party. "Uhhh...to the mall," he answered.
"Can I come?"
"It's be better if you didn't. These guys are gonna be enough of a pain."
"Oh, well....Have fun!" Sora laughed as he ran off to his own house.
"Yeah, fun," Riku mumbled to himself and began walking. How can Sora be so unselfish. He keeps giving me things, even if they do suck...But he still does this for me, without asking anything in return. Ah, that's our little Sora. I'll have to get him something nice. I'll worry about saving Tidus and Wakka later. Not much I can do until Christmas is over.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Riku reached the mall, everyone left him immediately. In a way he was glad, but he was also worried about how much trouble they would cause. "Don't get in trouble!" he yelled to the mob.
"We won't!" they all answered as they disappeared to random corners of the store. Riku sighed and began his search for a present. He stopped by a booth selling wooden swords. There was a nice plastic one and Riku thought about buying it. "Nah, it'd only break against my wooden one," he muttered to himself and continued his search. The store was big and everything was on sale. There were Christmas decorations in every corner and a Santa on every turn. He passed by a bunch of animals, but Sora couldn't even take care of himself let alone a pet.
"Hello sir! Would you like to buy a bottle of shampoo?" a person asked as they jumped out in front of Riku. Riku smiled and pushed them out of his way. "No thanks," he told them as he rushed past.
While running about he stopped by a jewelry store. "Looks interesting," he mumbled as he entered the store. It was full with random rings and necklaces, of every color and size. He stopped in front of a case and smiled at it. "Now that's for Sora," he chuckled as he went up to the sales clerk. "Hello, I'd like to buy the item in case 4."
"Ah yes, that's a nice buy. That'll be thirty dollars including tax," the clerk woman told him as she went over to the case and pulled out the object.
Riku pulled out some money, he had been given the money by everyone. They each threw in ten dollars each, leaving him with fifty. When the lady came back she put his merchandise in a bag and took the money from him. "Have a nice day!" she called as he left the small store.
"Since I'm here I should get presents for everyone..."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ansem still sat on the rock near the tower. The heartless hadn't returned and he was getting bored, not to mention he had a horrible hangover. "Bah! Today is the last day and the last present will be done!" he screamed before throwing up in a near by bush.
The heartless appeared beside the puking man and looked at him in disgust. "Very nasty," it said to him and then stared at the tower.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Riku had bought all the gifts he needed and now he needed to find everyone. He decided to locate Yuffie first. Where would she be? It didn't take long to find her. She was in the furniture store looking at closet designs. He entered the store and tapped her on the shoulder. "It's time to go," he told her.
She spun around and glomped him. "Oh thank you for bringing me!" she giggled. The two were hardly noticed by the other customers.
"Lets go get Aerith."
"Okay!"
The two went in search for Aerith and found her in the cleaning store. Naturally, she was looking at brooms and feather dusters. "Hey Aerith!" Riku yelled. Aerith turned around and walked over to the two.
"I'm ready to go," she told him and then gave him a tight squeeze. "Thanks for taking me!" The two got a few looks from the other customers.
"Lets go get Leon!" Yuffie and Aerith yelled happily.
Thus they found Leon and Cloud in the weapons store. The two guys were picking out deadly weapons they planned to use on each other. "You can't have any," Riku growled as he walked up to them and began to drag them away from the guns.
"Is it time to go?" Cloud asked sadly.
"It appears so," Leon answered for Riku.
"Thanks for bringing us!" the two laughed and both hugged Riku. The three of them got a lot of stares and strange looks from the other customers.
Riku dreaded finding the next person, but he knew he needed to find Sephiroth soon. The expression on Riku's face told everyone exactly what he was thinking. The two girls grabbed him by the arms and began leading him somewhere. "Where are you taking me?" he asked them.
"Two our dear Sephy!" they answered.
Riku frowned when he saw where they stopped. "Your KIDDING me," he groaned while reading the sign that read Victoria's Secret. "What is he doing in THERE?"
"Probably in the middle of making some evil plan to kill off Aerith," Leon answered casually, as if there were no problem.
"I don't wanna go in there!" Riku yelled as he looked at the others.
"We aren't," they laughed as they pushed him inside. Riku groaned as he looked around for Sephiroth. There he was, standing in front of the bras.
"Hey Sephy," he said in a whisper, hoping nobody would notice him.
Sephiroth turned around and giggled loudly. "Riku!" he screamed as loud as he could. Riku wanted to fade into the carpet.
"It's time to go."
"Okay!" Sephiroth laughed. "I love you so much Riku dear! Thanks for bringing me here!" Sephiroth screamed again and then glomped Riku as began shaking him around and planting kisses on his head. The entire store stopped and stared at the two.
"Ugh! Get off!" Riku yelled, he had never been so embarrassed in his life.
"Oh I understand, you want to wait until we get home!"
"Ack!"
After that Riku went to find the moogles and zombies. They were in the food area putting on a show for all to watch, and of course they wouldn't leave until their concert was over. Riku sighed as he and the five presents sat down to watch the moogles dance and the zombies sing in a way nobody could understand them.
"Get Riku!" one of the moogles said after noticing he was watching. All the zombies looked at him and grinned. That's when Riku ran as fast as he could to the bathroom. Hah! They couldn't reach him in there.
"Help!" he cried as the zombies grabbed his legs. He hadn't even reached his destination half way before they caught him. Ultimately they dragged him on stage and the moogles tied him to a chair. The crowd didn't respond to the teens cries because they thought it was all part of the show, so poor Riku was trapped. The moogles began dancing around him in circles and waving their arms. One of them picked up a bag of popcorn and began throwing pieces in the air. Little did anyone know that while they were all having fun, Riku was untying himself. Within minutes he escaped and ran out of the mall in a flash. He didn't get far though, the moogles and zombies were already on his tail and he couldn't seem to shake them off. "Leave me alone!" he ordered, not daring to stop.
"Hey wait up!" Leon yelled to him. His five presents were also running with the zombies and moogles. Riku stopped running when he reached his house. He was then tackled by the zombies and moogles who all kissed and loved on him. Once they were done with that, they dragged him in his house and to his room where they all wanted to wash the popcorn out of his hair.
"No! Stay away!" Riku screamed as the zombies held him down and the moogles began washing his hair with lotion. "My hair!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ansem had finally recovered from his hangover in time to receive the last gift for Riku from a tall woman dressed in black. "Thank you Malficent. This should work quite well. Tell me why did it take so long to make?" Ansem asked the evil witch.
"That is a very strong power. It will get the job done more than once. Even one of the twelve will be enough power," Malficent told him as she headed towards the black tower.
"How's Heartless Tower these days?" he asked as he put the gift in his cloak. The black clothed woman looked back at him with a sneer.
"Quite well considering they're missing the one who created them. That boy Riku, is there any chance of not killing him? He'd make a great minion for myself."
"When I'm done with him, maybe."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Riku sat on his bed trying to pull out the chunks of clay from his hair. Apparently the moogles had created some kinda of potion that was supposed to cure his hair but only filled it with clay. Lucky for Riku it wasn't permanent. "On the tenth day of Christmas my best friend gave to me," he sung as he pulled an orange peel from his head. "Ten dancing moogles, nine red roses, eight rotting zombies, seven jumbo hot-dogs, six magic Keyblades, five stolen hearts, four hours wasted, three crazy body guards, two fallen angels, and a heartless in a pear tree."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope everyone enjoyed it! There's only about seven more chapters to go! Maybe I'll add in a side story if you guys want. I've got plenty of ideas. All right R&R and then get loves! XD
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDDDDD..........
For your pleasure, a lovely Christmas song I made up last year with Sephiroth and the Red Nosed Reindeer. It doesn't make much sense, but here it is!
SEPHY THE BLACK EYED ANGEL
Sephy the blacked eyed angel, had a very spiffy pose!
And if you ever saw it, you would even say it blows!
All of the other angels, couldn't sing his funny songs.
They never let poor Sephy, run around in a pink thong.
Then one happy rainy day, Hojo came to say, BWHAHAHAH!
"Sephy with your eyes so black, won't you slay my giant rat?"
Then all the angels loved him, as they shouted out in pain!
Sephy the black eyed angel, he'll go down in history!
Like Zelgadis!
Yay! All right, Merry Christmas everyone! Or...er.....late X-mas!
