Crimson Bane
Chapter Seven
Yuffie

The next morning was quiet. Yuffie packed a few things and left the rest there. Vincent got his black chocobo ready for the five hour ride back to the castle.

"Meet me outside when you're done," Vincent told Yuffie when she was finishing packing, Yuffie nodded, then resumed. When she was finished, she buckled Vincent's cape around her, keeping her body warmth together. The cloak smelled a lot like him, making her feel safe. The redness of it reminded her of his once smile. Perhaps if she had it with her forever, she'd remember a time when she was last happy?

Yuffie walked to the door after saying good-bye to Aerith. The cat meowed longingly as if saying, 'stay here'. Yuffie wiped the tears on her cheeks, and noticed a gin on the table.

Yuffie walked over to it, and examined it. It wasn't like she was ever going to see him again…

Yuffie took it, and hid it in her bag. She walked over to the door, and met Vincent at his chocobo…

At The Castle

Yuffie climbed off the chocobo gracefully. "Do you want you cloak back?" She giggled. He said nothing, but moved his head.

"Yuffie, when all the chaos is over, run away and find me in the forest. I'll wait for you… I promise." Vincent said sadly. His voice trailed with a little hope for her.

"What chaos?"

"You'll find out soon enough. I love you."

"I love you too,'" Yuffie said. Surprisingly she didn't cry. Maybe it was because she had cried a lot on the past week. Or it was because they would see each other again.

"I'll wait for you!" He called to her and his chocobo began to run at full speed back to the cabin. Yuffie watched as he disappeared in the distance.

She sighed, and picked up her green traveling bag that Vincent gave her. Yuffie was in short shorts, a small tee, knee-high hiking boots, and a few bracelets. Her mother wouldn't approve, but right now she wanted to make her mother angrier then she was now.

Inside The Castle

"Yuffie! You're home!" Her mother's voice rang wearily throughout the room they were both in. Her mother ran up and squeezed Yuffie before pulling back. "I was so worried about you? What happened?"

"I ran away, mother."

"Foolishness! Somebody kidnapped you and then brainwashed you. We must continue the wedding tomorrow. I'll tell Sephiroth about your return. Meanwhile," her mother's cold nagging came back. "You'll change into something suitable. Are you still virgin?"

"Yes, mother…" Yuffie said bitterly.

"Thank god," She said with a wink that sickened Yuffie. "Return to your room and I'll send slaves up. I'm so glad you still have your beautiful hair!" That's all she cares about. Your beauty… Vincent cared so much more, The voice said.

"May I see father?" Yuffie closed her eyes, closing the voice to trying and calm her bitterness.

"Of course, dear."

"Thank you," Yuffie said. "I'll return to my room then…" Yuffie said, and dragged her feet up the stairs of the grand hall. She entered her room where everything was perfectly white. It was sickening. Her bed was perfectly made, and the sun shone upon it.

"In a few day's time you'll hardly be able to stand the sunlight. I suggest you use sunglasses," Vincent's voice said in her memory of the ride back.

"Alright…"

"Yuffie! You don';t know how much I missed you!" Yuffie's cheerful father said from the doorway. He ran up and hugged her tightly, making it so it was hard to breathe. "I was so worried about you Yuffie, what happened?"

"I ran away, father," Yuffie's eyes were unable to meet his. Her father had always been there when she needed him, so she felt guilty.

"I understand. I was the same way when I was young and was going to get married to my first wife. Sephiroth is a nice man, you'll like him."

Not as nice as Vincent.

"That's good father."

Several slave girls entered the room. "Well," He chuckled, "I'll leave you to your business."

Meanwhile at the cabin…
Vincent

Vincent entered his house, and immediately he knew something was wrong. First of all his gun was missing. Second, there were several chocobos and Cloud's bike in the front.

When Vincent went into the living room, he knew everybody. Several vampires from "the circle" were there. Ones such as Reno, Rude, Rufus, Ellena, Tseng, Cloud, Tifa, and Barret. Then there were several ferocious werewolves that belonged to the vampire-supportive clan called 'Lamia'.

"Vincent, where is she?" Cloud asked coldly. Tifa looked at him as if saying 'Run while you can'.

"Who?"

"The princess, you dumbass. Don't play fucking stupid with me!" One of the wolves yelled.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Her scent is practically painted on the walls, you can't lie!"

"I don't know what you're talking about. It's only been me and A… my cat."

"A… A who?" The wolf snapped again.

"My cat, Aerith."

"Cloud grunted. Vincent and Cloud shared long cold stares, and Vincent didn't realize one of the wolves sneak up behind him. Suddenly, his hands were tied tightly behind his back; his mouth was covered by duck tape, and they had him played in his, hands and he couldn't do anything about it.

The next day
Yuffie

Yuffie stood in front of the mirror and thought to herself. It was only thirty minutes until the wedding. Only thirty-five minutes until she says her 'I dos' and kisses Sephiroth.

Yuffie's dress had feathers over it, and had no sleeves, thank god. It was still very tight, unfortunately. (A/N: Like Yuna's dress in ffx). She had a large diamond in the middle of her chest that was clear and cross shaped. It was very heavy- even with her new super strength. White gloves surrounded the lower half of her arm and her hand delicately, making her look even more delicate. Yuffie's hair was up in a bun, and a white veil was placed upon her head.

Yuffie picked up the gun that was carved with the name 'Death Penalty'. She examined it, then quickly hid it behind her back when someone opened the door unexpectedly.

"Hello, princess," The familiar voice said. Sephiroth smiled at her in tux.

"Did you know it's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding?" Yuffie asked trying to make him go away.

"Hmm…" He thought, and took a few steps towards her. Quickly, he grabbed Yuffie's hands and took the Death Penalty out of her hands. "What were you trying to do you, kill me? I think not. Your blood smells a vampire, and those bite marks are noticeable for a vampire. So that must make you a half breed now, eh? Your mother and father tried ot blame me for your disappearance, you brat, and almost cancelled the wedding. That's not going to happen, understand me?" Sephiroth squeezed Yuffie's wrists in death grip. She gasped in horror, and tried not to scream or yell.

"You're… hurting… me…" Yuffie looked at the powerful man straight in the eyes bravely.

Sephiroth let go, and Yuffie took her wrists back. Sephiroth flung the weapon onto the bed, and Yuffie looked below, stubbornly not moving.

Sephiroth brought his fingers to her chin, and made her look up at him. "I got big plans. I can't wait until your in a little suit feeding me rich blood through your-"

"Ha. We'll just see about that. At least when we took over we didn't make little whores out of every girl!"

"Just you, my dear," His fingers moved down to the vampire bite.

"Who's your master?"

"I will never tell you."

"Oh, a snake. I like snakes…"

"Mam- sir. We're ready to start when you are." A maid interrupted.

"Alright, I'm coming," He told the maid. She nodded, and left the room. "Don't even think about leaving." Sephiroth threatened Yuffie. He grabbed the gun and shoved it into his pocket. He nodded, and left the bride alone.

Later...

Yuffie looked into Sephiroth MAKO changing eyes as she said her vowels that she had to repeat as the priest told them to her. She glanced past Sephiroth to his Best something she didn't bother to know, and noticed the many similarities. Yuffie had heard his name before… Kadaj? Who knows…

"Sephiroth, do you take this woman to by your wife?"

"I do."

"And Yuffie, do you take this man to be your husband?"

Yuffie stared at Sephiroth for a moment, completely traced by his changing eyes. He scared her. She wanted ot say no…

"I do," Came out of her mouth completely uncontrolled. No! NO!

"Are there any objections?" The preacher asked looking around the room.

"You may kiss the bride," He said. Sephiroth moved the cloth in front of Yuffie's face, and bent down to her height. He lightly kissed her- but she hated it. He was nothing compared to Vincent's soft touch.

He pulled, away, and looked around the room. He grabbed Yuffie's wrists forcefully, and his vampire friends in the crowd and in the wedding pulled out weapons of all sorts. "No longer do Werewolves rule this world, but we vampires own you people. You are now our slaves."

"It was a trick..." Yuffie's mother said in defeat.

"Noo!" Yuffie's father yelled, and hit a man, knocking him down. He began to transform when a loud bullet shot, and hit his head killing him.

"Father!" Yuffie cried out, and tried running to him. Sephiroth gripped her harder and she fell down to her knees.

Then the burning came.

"AHHH!" Yuffie screamed painfully as the cross on her chest began to burn her skin with it's holy. "Get it off! Get it off!"

Sephiroth pulled Yuffie back up, and ripped the necklace off. Her chest was now scarred. "Vampires, take the werewolves into the dungeons hostage. Capture as many as you possibly can- GO!"


Okay! I want to write more, but I have to go to bed. I didn't do exactly as I planned, a bit different but it still is working out. Mwuahaha! Please review!
