My Name is Ookami
T
Makai Goddess Ookami
A/N: Finally, after... five months I have completed my first fanfic! (Dances happily) So, I've completed number five on my to do list for the start of school year. Let's see what else to say... The ending was also edited to be put into UKBR but it's not nearly as similar as the beginning was to the other story. And um... Sephiroth smiled, ever so slightly, and not in a bad way. I'm oh so happy... (Dances some more) I'm gonna work on finishing another fic now.
Spyke- Eek... Do you really think it's that good. (Turns bright red) I thought it was lacking... But, it is the best battle scene I've ever written. ;
EPILOGUE- OOKAMI'S FAREWELL
"So, you're coming with?" Zell asked, sitting on Sephiroth's bed watching as Mimi put her few clothes in a bag, along with anything else she had gotten over the years.
"Yeah, I've been wanting to get off this planet, for like, ever," she frowned, looking at her arrows, "Do you think I could get a new bow?"
"Bah- I hate bows," Zell frowned, "Now a sword... that's the weapon to have."
Mimi rolled her eyes, and packed her arrows anyways. She shouldered the bag and rolled up the futon before looking around the small room. Zell watched her with little interest, yawning widely. Mimi half glared at him before gesturing for them to leave. Zell was more then happy to jump up.
"So, we good to go now? I swear I'm gonna die from the heat..." Zell asked chipperly.
"No, I gotta say goodbye to Kana and Seph," Mimi shrugged.
"Why do you want to say goodbye to Sephiroth?" Zell asked, raising an eyebrow.
"It's only fair," Mimi shrugged again, "After all- he did spare all our lives. I thought we were gonna die out there."
"I could have taken 'im," Zell smirked.
"Yeah, that's why you were practically bleeding to death."
"All a ploy, my sweet kitten."
Mimi stopped walking and Zell walked into her back. She raised an eye brow and turned to look at him curiously.
"Did you just call me your sweet kitten?" Mimi asked.
"Maybe," Zell smirked.
"Boys," Mimi mumbled, rolling her eyes and continuing to the infirmary, Zell trotting at her heels.
She led him through the halls, pointing out people and rooms to him before arriving where Kana was staying. She ran her fingers through her hair, and pushed open the door and walked inside. Zell peeked in, before entering also.
"Mimi," Kana smiled, looking up from where she was sitting, writing a report or something.
"Hey, I wanted to say goodbye before I left," Mimi shrugged, shifting from foot to foot.
"I heard you were going," Kana frowned, "I suppose... It'll be best?"
"I suppose," Mimi mumbled, biting her bottom lip.
"Well... You can always... visit," Kana said, somewhat sadly.
"Yeh," Mimi mumbled. "Well... bye..."
The two females just stared at each other, before Mimi hurried over and hugged her tightly. Kana smiled, and hugged her back. Zell rolled his eyes, watching with no interest. After a moment, Mimi let go and backed away slowly.
"I should probably go now," Mimi mumbled, "I'll come visit you as soon as I can..."
"I'll be waiting, honey," Kana smiled.
Mimi half saluted her, grinning as she waved and left. Zell examined his nails, totally bored. He continued to follow her though, as she led the way through the halls looking for Sephiroth.
"Why are you so interested in this guy?" Zell asked, "I mean, he's gotta be like fifty years older then you."
"I doubt he is that old," Mimi half laughed, "But he's not so bad, once you get to know him."
"Not so bad?" Zell snorted, "He could have killed you and Spyke!"
"And he wouldn't have killed you?" Mimi snapped.
"Yes, he would have!" Zell glared, "Unlike you I don't like risking my neck for some stupid goodbye. I'm going to the gummi ship."
"Fine, bye," Mimi glared after him, before readjusting her bag and setting off to look for Sephiroth again.
She checked everywhere she could think of. The mess hall, locker room, showers, training field- even where the equipment was kept. But he was no where to be found. She frowned, and rubbed the side of her neck, lost in thought.
"If I were Sephiroth where would I be?" she mused aloud.
"Looking for Seph?" Hercules asked, exiting a nearby room.
"Yeah, I want to tell him goodbye," Mimi shrugged.
Hercules looked at her, as if thinking.
"Last I saw him he was at the arena, in the stands," he told Mimi.
"Oh, thanks," She smiled, "Bye!"
"Bye," Hercules smiled, watching her dash away.
She ran to the stands as fast as she could, peering down the rows upon rows of seating. Mimi didn't see him, not at first anyways. She shielded her eyes, narrowing them. After a moment she saw his platinum hair and she practically skipped to where he was, sitting in the row behind him.
The two just sat in silence, Sephiroth having made no sign that he noticed the younger female arrive. But she knew from the way his wing wrapped around him slightly that he had. She'd learned that pose, long ago.
"You were leaving." Sephiroth said flatly.
"In an hour or so, yeah, I wanted to say goodbye," Mimi shrugged.
"Whatever, kid," Sephiroth replied.
"Ookami," she replied.
He cocked his head to the side ever so slightly to look at her. She noticed how relaxed he looked, arms resting on the back of two chairs, legs spread apart ever so slightly, and the fact he was slouched in his seat.
"My name is Ookami," she told him with confidence.
"It still sounds pathetic," Sephiroth said, eyes never leaving her.
She shrugged, "I'm okay with that."
"Whatever."
"I'm gonna try to come back in a month or so."
"Fine."
"I better go, bye Sephiroth," She coughed standing.
She turned to leave, before looking at him again. She couldn't hug him like she hugged Kana, that would end up with her dead. She smirked at him, flashing a peace sign. The corner of Sephiroth's lip twitched into what could only be considered a smile in the blandest of terms.
And with that, she walked away.
XOXOXOX
"Hey, dumbass," Sephiroth mumbled, shaking her shoulder slightly.
"Ugh..." Ookami moaned, putting a hand on her head as she opened an eye weakly, "What's goin' on?"
"You passed out," Sephiroth frowned, crouching next to her. "You don't have a hang over do you?"
"No! I'm not that stupid," Ookami growled, "What's it matter to you anyways?"
Sephiroth watched her silently for a moment, blue green eyes staring at her intently.
"It doesn't," he said after a moment, smirking slightly.
"Good, I wouldn't want you too," she grumbled, "The last thing I want is your pity."
"Whatever..."
He stood up to leave, but Ookami grabbed his wrist. After a moment, he rolled his eyes and pulled her to her feet, where she stumbled and bumped into him. She didn't blush, she wasn't embarrassed about it. Sephiroth just shook his head, and pulled his wrist free.
"You remember... When we first met?" Ookami asked suddenly.
Sephiroth looked at her, and nodded.
"You called me a rock," she said.
"I know."
"Am I still a rock?"
"No, now you are a cow."
"A... A... COW?" Ookami snapped, pummeling her fists into his side, "FAGGOT! I AM NOT A COW!"
"You look like one to me," Sephiroth smirked, walking to the door.
"You just called me fat, didn't you?" Ookami asked blankly.
"Maybe," Sephiroth smirked.
"Jackass!" Mimi snapped, throwing a pillow at him, as he closed the door.
Pouting, she plopped down on the floor.
"I hate you, Sephiroth," she growled. "You know that? I really hate you."
And yet, she didn't believe herself.
