Chapter 1

"Brother,"

"He's the only thing I can remember."

"Reno called, he said he's got a delivery for you, and need's you to meet him at his bar. I'll be waiting for you to come home."

The hotel owner Tifa, a young girl dressed in black with long black hair and reddish brown eyes, put down the headset of her telephone at the front desk.

"Things are a little boring now that everything's settled down" she said with a deep sigh of boredom. She was about to leave to her room on the top floor when she heard the front door open. It was a young man dressed in black with a hooded trench coat and silver hair that covered half of his face.

"Welcome to the Seventh Heaven Hotel, how may I help you?" Tifa said with a rather suspicious look on her face.

"I need a room to stay for a day or two, are there any available?" the stranger replied.

"Of course, let me sign you up for one."

She grabbed a clipboard with a list on it and started writing. "Could you tell me your name please?"

"My name is Kadaj."

Tifa paused for a moment, and continued writing, and then she picked up a card and handed it to Kadaj. "Here's your key, your room is number 1337 on the seventh floor. Enjoy your stay."

Kadaj took the key card and left to his room with a simple "Thank you." After he left Tifa said to herself, "I knew it."

Kadaj went down the hall to the elevators and realized that he felt like walking instead, so he took the seven flights of stairs up to the seventh floor and found his room. Just as he was about to slide the key card through the lock two boys came out the next room. One of them had brown spiky hair and brilliant blue eyes, the other had semi-long silver hair like Kadaj, accept it didn't cover his serene aquamarine eyes. The three of them stared at each other for a brief moment, and then Kadaj used his key to get into his room.

The two boys headed for the elevators as Kadaj entered his room. "That was a little weird." He heard the silver haired one say when he closed his door.

Tifa had just gotten in her room on the top floor of the hotel and walked over to her phone to make a call. The phone rang two times till someone answered.

"Hello?" The person said.

'Hey Cloud, you actually answered your phone. Where are you?"

"I'm at Wutai."

"What are you doing all the way out there?"

"Yuffie needed my help with something. Why, do you need something?"

"Well, we have a special guest back here at seventh heaven."

"Special guest…Who is it?"

"It's Kadaj."

"…Kadaj? That's impossible."

"Well apparently, it's not."

"Were Loz and Yazoo there with him?"

"No, he was alone. It doesn't seem like he remembers us."

"I see, try and make sure he doesn't leave the hotel, I'll see what I can do about him when I get there."

"How long do you think it'll take for you to get back? Wutai is pretty far, and I can't keep him in here forever."

"Without Cid's help I'll get there in about four days. I'll see if I can make it there a little sooner."

"I'll do what I can."

"Call me if anything happens."

The call ended and Tifa hung up her phone. "How am I supposed to keep him here for four days?" she thought to herself.

Kadaj settled into his hotel room. He didn't really have anything to unpack so he sat on a sofa next to a window in the corner of the room. He looked out the window into the cloudy sky. "Brother, where are you?" He asked himself. For a while he started thinking, contemplating where he might be able to find his "brother," then he looked down on the street. He saw the two boys from the next room, they were surrounded by a bunch of shadows. Kadaj got up from the sofa and ran out of his room closing the door behind him. He had to help them from whatever was attacking them.

When he got outside the hotel he saw the two boys but no shadows. Both of them were holding giant…keys?

"Well that was easy." said the one with silver hair.

Then they noticed Kadaj.

"What happened?" Kadaj asked. "I saw the two of you in trouble so I came down to help but…"

"Oh, well we're okay. Thanks anyway." The spiky haired boy replied.

Kadaj walked towards them, introduced himself and asked for their names. The boy with brown hair said his name was Sora, the other said his name was Riku.

"Where did you get those giant keys from?"
