Hello. I appreciate all the reviews I'm getting. I feel so special...
Chapter Three:
A boy and girl stood at the door. The boy was wearing a lab coat, which had mysterious stains on it. The girl wore a long white dress that seemed to shine. He hair was pulled up into a long ponytail with strands of hair still falling down the sides of her face. Vincent stared at her in awe. His eyes were widened, and he dropped Kadaj to the floor. But then he saw the boy, and glared. "Hello," said the boy. "Who the hell are you?" Kadaj asked.
"My name is Hojo. This is-"
"Lucrecia," Vincent interrupted. Cloud looked at Vincent. "You like her?" he asked. He nodded. "Very much. But that bastard of a scientist took her away from me."
"But does she like you?"
"...No."
"Well then he didn't really take her away from you." He looked at Cloud with an angry look on his face. Cloud held up his hands. "Sorry," he said. Vincent sighed. "I confessed my undying love for her one day at the sandbox, but she rejected me. She said that what we have is nothing more, or nothing less than a friendship. Then, she ran over to Hojo. I was really sad." Cloud patted Vincent's shoulder. "It's okay," he said. Lucrecia and Hojo walked over to the bookshelf. Vincent followed them with his eyes. He watched as both of them grabbed a book and sat down next to each other.
"Just seeing him makes me sick," said Vincent. Yuffie came up to Vincent. "It's okay, Vincent! Don't worry about her," she said. He sighed. He knew it was way too hard to forget her. Then, Hojo looked up at Vincent, and glared. Vincent didn't do anything. Kadaj looked over and flicked him off. Hojo just smiled and went back to reading with Lucrecia.
The day was getting later, so everyone split up to do things that they wanted to do. Cid and Barret were reading the Midgar Times, Yuffie and Tifa were talking in a corner, Kadaj, Loz, and Yazoo were sparring in an empty spot in a room, Reno and Rude were practicing fighting with their nightsticks while Tifa and Yuffie watched, and Cloud was with Vincent. Vincent was standing at a little table, drawing pictures. Lucrecia and Hojo were at a little table across from him. Clodu stood by Vincent's side, to make sure he didn't do anything to drastic. Hojo kept glancing over at Vincent meanly. While Vincent was coloring in a picture of his Death Penalty, something splattered on his paper. He looked up. Hojo was giggling silently, holding a jar of glue. Vincent glared at him. "Bastard," he mouthed. Hojo smiled and looked down at his paper.
Cloud was painting a picture of a flower (like Aeris' flowers just so you know). Vincent reached across the table, grabbing a handful of red paint. He flung it across the room, and watched it splash onto Hojo's face. He tried to hold his laughs in, but then everyone burst into laughter. Hojo gasped. "Fucker!" he yelled at Vincent. "FIGHT!" Cid hollered. Vincent took more handfuls on paint, throwing them across the room to Hojo's face. Hojo retaliated by throwing glue back at Vincent. Soon, everyone was on Vincent's side of the room, throwing paint at Hojo. Lucrecia had been standing next to Hojo the whole time, and now burst into tears. "Stop it! Just stop it!" she yelled, running towards the door. Everyone stopped, and Vincent was the most disappointed of everyone in the room.
"No.." he said, feeling helpless. Hojo looked at everyone in disgust. "Bastards!" he yelled. Vincent ran after Lucrecia, who almost reached the door. "Lucrecia, wait!" he said. Tears fell from her eyes. "Lucrecia, please wait!" Vincent said one more time. Just then, Lucrecia tripped on the front of her dress when she reached the door. "Whoa!" she cried, falling towards the floor. But then, someone caught her with his arm. The person was standing at the door, and stood taller then everyone in the room. Everyone gasped. Even Lucrecia was scared.
The boy helped Lucrecia stand up, but then Lucrecia ran back over to Hojo, scared as hell. Cloud stepped forward. "Sephiroth..." he said, gazing at the tall boy at the door who towered over everyone.
Dun dun DUN!
