Some things belonging to shadows
By: Sissy Chapter 15
"Of all the stupid things I've ever seen, why on earth did you kiss Sora?!" Tidus asked exhaustedly.
"I just felt like it." Shadow replied.
"Answer the question with seriousness." Auron told him.
After Sora had fainted from being kissed by Shadow, he was put on the sofa Shadow had been in and Shadow was taken away from the room and into the kitchen by Tidus and Auron.
"Why else would I do it except to bother our stupid little idiot." Shadow smirked.
"Who? Riku?" Auron asked and Shadow nodded.
"Who else but him?" Shadow grinned and played with an empty cup.
"Why would you want to do that?" Auron asked.
"Because I was bored and for the reason that I want to bother Ansem more and more." Shadow smirked.
"You know, Ansem knows Riku's here." Tidus told them.
"What?!" both said surprised.
"Yeah… Just before he left, he noticed Riku and smiled." Tidus said, angrily.
"Then, he'll probably come to try and use Riku to kill Sora. Shit. This just keeps getting complicated." Auron said, angry as well.
"We're home!!!" they heard Selphie arrive.
"We're in the kitchen!" Auron told them.
"Hey Auron!!!" Auron jumped as he remembered who came with them.
"Hello Yuffie." Tidus said as the gang entered the kitchen, "Try to kiss either of us and the elders will have to find a new ninja." he smiled at the girl, who was almost ready to pounce on Auron.
"Yes, sir…" she said scared and noticed Shadow, "Huh?! Shadow!!!" Yuffie squealed and ran to hug the boy but was stopped by a huge shadow.
"Don't even try it." he warned her.
"Yes, sir…" she said sadly and was let go by the big shadow.
"So, update me on what's happening please." Seifer asked, making sure Squall didn't run away.
They nodded and explained to Seifer the situation. A few minutes later and they were done.
"Oh, and Shadow kissed Sora to rile Riku up." Auron told them.
"What?!" they were all surprised.
"The guy was getting on my nerves!" Shadow protested.
"What do you mean?" Selphie asked confused.
"He and Sora are having dreams of the past, but neither of them have realized what happened then. That, and the fact that Sora and Riku's heart are changing." Shadow told them.
"Changing?" they all asked confused.
"Didn't you two notice the face Riku made when I kissed Sora? He was jealous." Shadow explained.
"Really?" Selphie and Yuffie asked.
"Of course! That's why I'm having fun bothering them." Shadow smirked.
'Don't you think of anything besides bothering people?' they all thought.
Shadow went into thought as the group sighed and started talking.
"If Ansem's coming, do you want me to upgrade the magic surveillance system in the house?" Yuffie asked, "It's amazing what old Chinese folk will teach you if you get them drunk enough." she laughed.
"What exactly were you studying up there in the mountains?" they all asked.
"Oh, you know. This and that." she laughed mischievously, making them shiver with goose bumps.
Yuffie jumped around before leaving them.
"Anyways, while Yuffie upgrades the system, who'll be watching Riku?" Cloud asked.
"We're glad you volunteered, Cloud." they all smiled.
"I hate you." he glared at them.
"Don't worry Cloud. As soon I have my talk with Squall, I'll watch over the kid." Seifer smiled confidently at Cloud.
"Take one of the rooms upstairs. They're soundproof just in case." Cloud tossed him a key from his pockets.
"Thanks!" Seifer said and ran upstairs while carrying a pissed off Squall.
"So, while those two are incapacitated, what do you guys wanna do?" Selphie asked.
"Let's go back to the living room and play cards until it's night and we need to go to bed." Tidus said.
"I'm all up for that." they said joyfully.
"Hey, I was thinking just know." Shadow called them before they began to leave.
"What?" Auron asked.
"I'm not sure if it was true or not but, did we have a puppy?" Shadow asked.
"That's a good question. Did you have a puppy?" Cloud began to wonder, along with the rest as they all made their way to the living room.
Cloud got a pack of cards from a drawer in the hallway and they entered the living room. They sat down on the floor in a circle as Cloud distributed the cards, none paid attention to Riku who had fallen asleep before.
They played mindlessly for an hour and a half, Cloud winning most of the time, before Riku and Sora woke up with a start.
"I/You had a puppy?!" they both asked, Riku asking Sora.
"I don't know." Sora shrugged and both boys looked at the group playing cards.
"Evenin'." they all said as Selphie managed to win a hand and they started playing again.
"Can I play?" Sora asked and they nodded.
Sora cheered and sat along with them, so they began to fight in pairs. Sora was with Shadow, Selphie with Cloud and Tidus with Auron. Riku decided to put Kairi on the sofa since his arms were hurting and went to the kitchen to get some food.
"And I'm glad we had that talk." Seifer and a gloomy Squall entered the kitchen, "Oh. Hi kid."
"Uh, hi. Who are you?" Riku was confused as to who these two were.
"Name's Seifer. This guy next to me is Squall." Seifer said happily, "And from today on, I'll be your bodyguard. Nice to meet you." he announced as he extended his hand to Riku.
"Nice to meet you, I guess. But why do I need a bodyguard?" Riku asked as he shook Seifer's hand before letting go of it.
"For x and y reason." Seifer said, then slapped Riku's back saying, "Don't sweat the small details kid!"
"Alright, but could you at least tell me who it is you're going to be protecting me from?" Riku asked as Seifer stopped smacking his back.
"You don't need to worry about that. For now at least." Seifer laughed and headed to the living room to be with the others.
"You coming or what?" Squall asked Riku.
"Uh, yeah… Sure." Riku said and headed back with Squall, taking some Oreo cookies along for the rest.
When they entered, they saw Yuffie trying to kill Auron while saying something along the lines of; "You cheated!"
"Want some?" Riku asked Selphie as he sat next to her.
"Yay! Thanks! Sora, you want some?" Selphie asked the brunette, who quickly nodded and took some to eat while handing half to Shadow.
"Thanks Sora." Shadow said and ate some.
"Ooh, give me some." Tidus smiled and Riku handed him the package.
"Thanks." Cloud said as Tidus handed him the package after taking a few.
"Hey, I want some as well." Seifer said and Cloud handed him the package.
"Aren't there any drinks to go with this?" Auron asked as he sat down again, along with Yuffie and a bump on his head.
"You get some if you're that thirsty." Riku glared at the man, who took some from Seifer.
"Hmmm… Alright!" Selphie announced and they all looked at her curiously, "Sora, Shadow and Riku! Thanks for volunteering!"
"What?! Why us?!" all three asked.
"'Cause you're gentlemen." Selphie said and all three boys angrily left.
"That's cunning and evil, girl!" Yuffie laughed.
"Don't you just love suckers?" Selphie joked and the rest of the boys looked gloomily away.
They waited a little while until Sora, Shadow and Riku arrived with some juice packs, Riku and Shadow looking very pissed.
"Shall we play then?" Auron asked.
They all nodded and divided into groups again. Sora was still with Shadow, Tidus with Auron, Selphie with Yuffie, Seifer with Squall and Riku with Cloud.
They all played together, not realizing they were being watched.
"How foolish they are. Playing around without a care in the world." he smirked, then frowned, "Still, upgrading that system was smart. Even for that stupid girl. Looks like they'll be using that house as a base after all."
"…" a man awakes.
"Oh, you're awake at last. I was getting pretty bored. I need your power again. Since Cloud is the brains for their little operation, you'll be needed in order to keep him away and occupied." the sinister man smiled wickedly.
"Clo…ud…?" he asked, still a bit tired from sleeping.
"Yes, but we'll have to draw him out. Then you two will be able to fight. That is what you want, right?" he asked.
"Yes…" he answered, somewhat forced.
"Good. I hope you'll be able to actually kill those two this time Sephiroth." Ansem smiled at the chained Sephiroth hanging from the wall.
TBC…

Sissy: FINALLY!!! After two months!!! I'm sorry I got you all waiting for this. My writer's block was very big and appeared due to the fact that this is the first time I've ever done a fic without an actual plot. The main idea is there, but the way to write it is slowly being made. So I'm sorry you all have to put up with me.
Moon: Also, due to the fact that the other four personnel have taken a vacation, I'll be filling in. I'm Moon the owl. Please review so we can know your thoughts. Also, be warned that I greet flames and critics with a hose and sarcasm
Sissy: Right. On with the replies!
Freak'net; unfortunately, I kinda got stuck on doing a Christmas fic from Naruto, so I took a while longer. Hopefully I won't need to do it again until another big holiday (meaning Saint Valentines)
NaruNaru.O.k; I guess it was a little unexpected. I think it's because maybe Shadow thinks 'outside the box' or something. I'm not sure.
Skaddicted; thanks. You were the only one who wished me a happy birthday (aside from my family) Anyways! I hope you liked it!!!
DieChan; It's okay, I got kinda confused too. ll;;;
Sai-ryo Aura Feana; yeah, she does. I'll try to update a bit faster from now on.
clueless97; thanks. Everything comes as time passes and I get inspired form everything. Though that also might be the reason why I'm so slow at updating this.
rogue solus; I'll try. Thanks.
Sissy: Well, that's all for this chapter! Hopefully I'll be a little faster and not take two months to update again. See ya all next time!!
