Spy School
LMY: Now I can write better. The two vampires have been sent back to their owner. Thanks Kerith for letting them attacked me (sarcastically said).
Sora: Explain!
Riku: Yeah what he said. And put Sora and me back together.
LMY: All in due time! Enjoy!
Chapter Eleven
"Squall?"
Sora took a step forward his eyes never leaving Squall's back. "Squall?" Squall didn't move his body was tense.
Yuffie coughed. "Squall what happened?" She asked, afraid of the answer.
Squall's arms moved and his gunblade clashed to the ground. Squall's knees gave out under him and he fell to his knees, his body shaking. "I, I killed them!" He said his voice sounded distant.
"Who? Who did you kill?" Yuffie asked softly. Squall couldn't answer. He couldn't bring himself to say.
"Cid, Aeris and Kairi." Said Sora quietly.
Yuffie and Cloud turned to Sora, both surprised. "How do you know?" Asked Cloud.
Sora's stomach twisted. He felt sick again. "I saw them." Sora stomach lurched and he ran to the bathroom. He was sure he had already lost all of his lunch earlier but he had guessed wrong. There was still breakfast to loss. Someone handed Sora a towel and he wiped his face. He looked up into apologetic steel gray eyes. "Thanks." Said Sora as he sat back against the bathtub. Cloud and Yuffie kneeled at his sides, Squall stood in front of him.
"I'm sorry." Said Squall quietly. "I didn't mean for anyone to see… what I had done."
"It's not your fault. It was my own. I shouldn't have followed the trail of blood. I shouldn't have opened the door. It was my own fault." Sora said while suppressing the images that came to his mind. "Anyway we all said we hated them or wanted them dead. So now… we don't have to worry about them getting in our way. Just answer one question, why? Was there something else that made you kill, them?"
Squall smiled slightly and kneeled down in front of Sora. "There was. None of you know this but… I was forced to come here. I was threatened if I didn't come then my dad would have been killed. I believed Cid at first and joined then after a while I didn't think it was possible, but I stay anyway. I had friends here. Good friends." Squall's smiled widened then faded. "But after what happened to your parents I got scared that I would loss my dad. I phoned him and asked him to keep himself safe.
When I suggested about you all living with me I was thinking about how to tell Cid that I was leaving. Then yesterday when I told Sephiroth and Riku to stay at a hotel I got the courage to tell Cid that I was leaving. I asked him today, he called Aeris and Kairi to his office. He told me that I could never leave. Kairi and Aeris had a device thing and Cid told me that it was connected to my dad. He said that if I left then he would kill my dad and I would have no choice but to stay.
I'm not really sure what came over me but I feared that they weren't joking, that that thing really was connected to my dad. I didn't want to loss my. He's the only family I have. So I… I killed them. It didn't really hit me about what I did till Yuffie asked me what had happened." Sora nodded realising what Squall had been through.
Cloud was stunned. "Wow." The others looked at him strangely. "What? That's the most I've ever heard him speak." The other three laughed at Cloud, who pouted which just made them laugh even harder. They all stood up after their laughter had calmed down.
"So… what's going to happen now?" Asked Yuffie.
"If you all pack your stuff we can go and get Sephiroth and Riku before we head over to my place. Meet me in the lobby with all your stuff." Cloud couldn't contain himself. He ran into his bedroom and started backing while saying stuff like 'I coming for you Sephy baby' and 'Me and Sephy sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G'. Yuffie wasn't that far behind him. She raced to her own room and started to pack too. Sora stayed to talk to Squall some more. The pair walked out of Cloud's room and headed for Sora's room.
"Are you already packed?" Sora asked.
Squall nodded. "Yeah. I've even packed all the equipment and stuff. I would really like to keep being a spy, but without any threat."
Sora nodded and smiled. "Me too. I really want to see Riku." Squall smiled and put his hand on Sora's head and ruffled his hair.
"I'm sure he misses you too."
"How does your dad feel about gays?" Sora asked surprising Squall a bit.
"He's not homophobic if that's what you're worried about. I told him all about you and Riku, Sephiroth and Cloud. He suggested giving Cloud and Sephiroth a wing to themselves." Sora chuckled. "He knows that I'm bi and is perfectly fine with it as long as I'm happy. Anyway what are you really? Gay or bi?"
Sora furrowed his brows. "I don't know. I don't really like guys that much. Just Riku. But then again I don't like girls that much either."
"You don't have to decided. Just as long as your happy and Riku doesn't hurt you."
Sora laughed lightly. "Riku wouldn't hurt me."
"I'm just making sure. You're like my little brother. I don't want anyone to hurt you."
Sora smiled again. He seemed to do that I lot lately no matter what had been happening. "Will your dad like us?"
"Even if he didn't it wouldn't say anything. He'll like you, Riku and Yuffie. But Cloud and Sephiroth I'm not to sure about. He'll be able to put up with them just as long as they're not having sex every day."
"That's kind of difficult for them."
"True." They had finally reached Sora's room. "I'll be in the lobby waiting for all of you." Sora nodded and went into his room to pack.
Squall had been busy. At the moment the car and helicopter were outside ready to go. All the equipment was packed on the helicopter, with his own stuff. Clouds motorbike was outside too just waiting for its driver. The first to arrive was Sora. Squall helped Sora put his stuff in the helicopter and waited for Yuffie and Cloud. The said pair arrived together. Their stuff was packed into the car.
"So who's driving what?" Asked Yuffie eagerly.
Squall smiled. He knew what Yuffie was waiting for. "You will be driving the car." Yuffie punched her hand in the air with a 'yes'. "Cloud you get your lovely motorbike of course." Squall really didn't need to say that because Cloud was already on his bike stroking it.
"It's okay. Dad's back." He said to it. Squall shook his head and turned to Sora.
"You can ride with whoever you want."
Sora grabbed on to Yuffie. "I'm riding with Yuffie."
Squall looked a little surprised. "Why?"
"She drives better than Cloud and I'm not that keen on the helicopter." Squall shrugged. Fair point. Yuffie did drive, better than Cloud. Anyone can drive, better than Cloud. It's not that he couldn't drive it was more he couldn't really drive safely. Squall jumped into the helicopter. Sora and Yuffie jumped into the car. Squall took into the air and the car and motorbike followed since Yuffie and Cloud didn't know where the hotel was.
Inside the helicopter Squall had on a headset, which he had attached to his mobile. He phoned the hotel Sephiroth and Riku were at. It ringed and the receptionist picked it up. "Hello and how can I help you?" She said.
"Please can you patch me through to Sephiroth and Riku, who are staying at the hotel. They're expecting this call."
"Sure thing. Can I who is asking for them?"
"Squall Leonhart."
"Please hold." Cheery music with no words played. Through out whole conversation Squall had managed to keep the helicopter at the same height and speed. 'I was probably a woman in a former life.' He thought to myself about his multi tasking. I moment later the music stopped and the phone was ringing again.
"Hey Squall." Said Sephiroth's voice. "You're on speaker phone."
"Hey guys. Pack your stuff. We're coming to get you."
"Great." Said Riku. Squall heard feet and guess that Riku was packing already.
"So how did you all escape?" Asked Sephiroth.
Squall's mouth dried. Who was he supposed to say what he had done? "Umm… I tell you when we get there. You'd be best to pack. We're not that far away. We'll meet you in the lobby."
"Okay. See you soon. Bye."
"Bye." The phone clicked off to a dead line and Squall ended the call. Now the only problem for Squall was thinking of a place to park a helicopter. There was a grass field in the horizon Squall headed to it and landed the helicopter. Yuffie and Cloud weren't that far behind. Squall locked the helicopter and jumped into the car.
"Where now?" Asked Cloud, pulling his bike next to the car.
"I'll give Yuffie directions, you follow." Said Squall.
"Aww, you're no fun. I want to speed." Cloud complained.
"Yeah I know that. That's why I'm riding with Yuffie. Safer."
Yuffie took off with Squall giving the directions. Cloud on his bike followed beside them, looking bored at the slow, safe speed.
They reached the hotel ten minutes later. Everyone got out or off for their vehicles and walked inside. Sephiroth and Riku stood in lobby with all their bags near them. As soon as Cloud and Sora had entered the building they were both attacked with hugs. Squall smiled at the couples, he nodded to Yuffie and they both got all the bags and loaded them into the car.
Sephiroth spotted Squall and Yuffie were waiting at the car. He nodded to Riku, pointing with his head to the car. The two couples headed out, completely missing the looks on the receptionists faces. "Why are all the hot guys either taken, gay or both?" Said the receptionist with shoulder length black hair.
"Just our luck." Said the one with long blonde hair. "The blonde guy was pretty hot too."
"Yeah. The little brunette was cute. Too young for me though." The pair sighed.
"What did you think about the taller brunette?"
"Hot! But knowing our luck he's dating the ninja girl."
"Yeah." The phone rang and the two girls got back to there work.
Outside the hotel Sephiroth was on the motorbike with Cloud. Sora and Riku were in the back seat of the car, with Yuffie driving and Squall in the passenger seat. Cloud's motorbike speeded ahead, because Cloud remembered the way. Sephiroth was holding on tightly to Cloud's waist with his chin resting on the blonde's shoulder. "Did you miss me?" The silver haired youth said over the wind.
"Of course I did."
"I hope you don't mind but I asked Riku to sleep in the same bed as me. I couldn't sleep without you there, and you know I would never think of doing anything with Riku. Him being my little brother and all that." Said Sephiroth.
"I don't mind. I wish I had thought of that. Might have got a lot more sleep. Where was Squall when I needed him?" Joked Cloud.
Sephiroth hit Cloud lightly on the head. "I hope you weren't dreaming about him?"
"If I was you would have been right beside me." Cloud said while smiling to himself.
"That's okay then." Sephiroth sighed. "Squall really needs a boyfriend of girlfriend."
"Yeah. Maybe we should try and set him up with Yuffie." Suggested Cloud.
"That's a great idea!" Exclaimed Sephiroth as the bike began to slow down near a large field with a helicopter. Cloud stopped the bike and they waited for Yuffie to arrive.
When Yuffie did arrive Squall got out the car and went over to the helicopter. Yuffie got out of the car. "How can you handle the speed he goes at?" She asked Sephiroth.
"I'm used to it." He stated. "Plus I have a need for speed."
Yuffie shrugged and got back into the car. Cloud and Sephiroth jumped on to the bike and waited for Squall to take off. When he did, they were off.
LMY: I hope you all had a nice New Year and didn't get too drunk. Though if you did you'll probably had a hangover the next day. I feel so smart, with the whole too young to drink.
Sora: I would like to find out what the stuff tastes like?
LMY: Most of it doesn't taste nice. I've tried a few but I didn't like them.
Riku: I hate hangovers.
Sora: When did you have a hangover?
Riku: All the time when I was still with my gang.
LMY: That should teach you not to drink. Anyway… I should stop acting like my mum. Please review!
