Chapter 12: Family
When Kadaj woke up the next morning, he looked to his right and saw that Yazoo was missing. He got out of bed and walked into the kitchen, thinking he may have gone in there for food. Yazoo was not there, so he approached Loz, who was sleeping on the sofa with Elena.
"Loz?" Kadaj asked. Loz, startled, sat straight up and Elena did, too. "Have you seen Yazoo? I can't find him anywhere."
"No, I haven't," Loz answered, concerned. "But I'll help ya look."
Kadaj and Loz searched the house until Kadaj found a note under Yazoo's pillow.
"Dear Toe-Suckers,
Since you didn't make a decision, we made one for you. Yazoo is ours now. If you ever want to see him again, you must hand over Elena and one million dollars.
Sincerely,
The Turks."
Yazoo was standing in a large cage in his bathrobe and moogle slippers, holding Moogy, since the Turks gave her back to him. He just stood there with his knees bent in together and shivered from the coldness in the room and from fear.
"Don't worry. I'm sure your brothers will arrive at any moment now," Tseng assured, smiling at his desk and propping his chin on his steepled hands.
"Yazoo!" Loz called, running into the room with Kadaj behind him.
"Yazoo smiled. "Loz! Kadaj!
"Stop right there!" Tseng yelled to them, out of his rolley chair with his hand gun pointed to the two of them. "Take another step and you're mine!"
Loz and Kadaj froze. "Give us Yazoo back and we'll leave peacefully," Loz told Tseng.
"I'm sorry, but I'm not accepting any bargains from you," Tseng laughed.
"I'm not afraid of you!" Kadaj called to Tseng with anger.
"Kadaj! Don't!" Yazoo yelled, leaning against the bars of the cage.
"That's enough, Tseng!" Rufus yelled, coming into the room.
Tseng looked at him, and then at Loz and Kadaj. He sighed and lowered his gun. "But, Sir—,"
Rufus glared at him, so he shut up. "Now, I'm assuming you came for your brother, correct?" Rufus asked Loz and Kadaj. They nodded.
"You haven't hut him, have you!" Loz yelled.
"No, of coarse not. In fact, we think we may be able to help you."
"Rufus!" his father, President Shinra, called to him. He was alive!
Rufus jumped, not knowing he was behind him. He turned toward him nervously. "Oh, father! When did you get here?" he laughed in nervousness.
"It isn't your job to take care of such matters! Now step aside!" Shinra yelled strictly to his son. Rufus did so. "Now then," he turned to Loz. "Are you all trying to find your . . . mother?"
". . . Yes, Sir," Loz answered tensely. Kadaj stood behind him to be protected.
"Well, we found her and your father!"
"What!"
"But if you want them and your dear brother back . . ," he began. Some SOLDIERS opened a curtain and behind it was Elena squirming in a large electrical machine. ". . . Then Elena shall suffer!"
"Why!" Loz demanded.
"Because she's a traitor! She destroyed my corporation by joining you and going against us for you!"
"Don't hurt her! Let her go!" Loz demanded.
President Shinra snapped his fingers and Reno and Rude slung Yazoo out of his cage and held him still. "Let go of me! You're hurting me!" Yazoo screamed.
"No! Yazoo!" Loz yelled. "What do you want with him!" he asked Shinra.
"He will be Hojo's new experiment. We have many plans for him."
While Shinra was distracted by Loz, Kadaj slipped past him and held onto Rufus so that he could not move and placed the blade of his Souba against his neck.
"Father!" Rufus screamed and whimpered. Shinra turned toward his son frantically.
"Let us have Yazoo, Moogy, Elena, and our parents or I'll slit his throat!" Kadaj threatened.
Rufus was nearly in tears and his heartbeat was up dramatically. "Okay. Go!" Shinra yelled, not willing to let his son get killed just for some revenge and experiments.
Loz freed Elena and Yazoo while Kadaj still held onto Rufus to make sure nobody turned on them.
"Where's Mother!" Loz asked Shinra.
"Firstly, how did you kill Olivia? She is one of our best experiments!" President Shinra interrogated.
"Experiments? But she was a floor mat from that awful storm!"
"Yes. We created that storm. We wanted at least one of you all so badly that we sent Olivia to your house immediately after we found out your location. Then we sent in the toilet paper and wall paper tearings to assist her in capturing you, but that darn Sephiroth ruined our plans!" Shinra griped. "So how'd you kill her?"
"I kicked her until she passed out and returned her to her original form, then took her outside and burned her to ashes!" Yazoo answered, hugging Moogy and standing next to Loz.
"Now give Mother to us!" Kadaj ordered, still threatening Rufus.
"Fine!" Shinra gave in. He clapped his hands and Kadaj, Elena, Loz, Moogy, and Yazoo (who magically returned to his normal clothes) teleported into their house with their parents behind them.
"M-Mother? Father? Brother?" Kadaj asked in happy shock. Before them stood Hojo as their father, Jenova as their mother, and Sephiroth as their brother.
"Kadaj? Yazoo? Loz? Oh, you've all grown so much!" Mother cheered. Kadaj, Loz, Yazoo, Mother, Father, and Sephiroth all hugged while Elena smiled at seeing her husband's wish finally come true.
"And who is that?" Father asked about Elena.
"Mother, Father, this is my wife Elena. We just got married recently, but we live here together. Though she's a Turk –," Loz began explaining.
"I quit," she interrupted. Everyone turned toward her in shock. "I've decided to quit working for those creeps and find another job."
"Father?" Kadaj asked.
"Yes, son?" Father (Hojo) asked.
"I love you. And thank you, Sephiroth, for saving me and my brothers from Olivia."
"I love you and your brothers . . . and my wife as well."
"We all love each other," Yazoo added.
"Yeah. No matter what happens, what we look like . . . No matter what . . . we'll always love each other and be a family," Loz agreed.
And to that, there was a toast.
The End?
Hojo and Jenova are their parents, but the brothers do not know that. So, did you love this fanfic? I hope you did! Now, this may be the end of this one fanfic, but there is still a prequel and sequel to be made! The prequel will be about the brothers from the time Kadaj was 1 year old up until the start of this story. It will have some action/adventure in the later chapters and I think it will be a lot more realistic and less stupid than some of this one was. The sequel will be about the brothers with their parents and new brother starting their lives over, but it is not nearly as exciting and I think it may bore you a bit. I will post the prequel first unless the majority of you object. It will probably be a while though, because I need to write more on it and want to finish up some more fanfics on here first. The prequel is "O, Children!" and the sequel is "O, Mothers!". All ideas are VERY welcome!
