Moshi moshi! Hello peeps! So this chapter has a really sweet moment in it and I am really really excited because it's AAAAAA-DORABLE (that was a reference to XSimsugar on YouTube)! I also have ideas for making a series of one-shots based on Kadaj after Advent Children. It'll tie into a LOT of my fanfictions- holy crap I have a shit-ton of ideas for new fanfictions! XD Lol But yeah, I think I'm going to write some one-shots to fill in the gaps in-between the start of the story I am telling and the part of the story that I jump into and write to make a fanfiction. I hope that makes sense and I am super duper excited to fill in the gaps and continue the fanfictions! They are all basically parallel universes (unless they are like this one. My other fanfictions are the parallel universes to this fanfiction and each other. Just because they have similar characters but with different shit going on... ok that makes me sound crazy! Sorry). So ya! Please enjoy and REVIEW!


Chapter 6- Let's All Be Friends and NOT TRY TO KILL EACH OTHER!

I could hear snickering circling the table. The-Girl-By-Me looked down at me while Kadaj helped me up. Well, thank you for the help, bee-otch. I'm not saying that to Kadaj. I was saying that to The-Girl-By-Me. Reno didn't even try hiding his laughter.

"Anyway, my colleagues and I brought you all together today for one reason," Reeve continued when I was sitting upright with [ink ears, hair, and eyes and face. He said "colleagues" like he didn't even want them to be his acquaintances.

We all looked suspiciously at the people we didn't know. And what Reeve was going to say was NOT going to get a good reaction from pretty much everyone.

"We have decided that with Deepground gaining more power from the government, we need you all to get along. In other words, the empty apartments and houses next door to Helga Sim's house will be filled," Reeve said. Well that was pretty blunt... aaaaand CUE THE COMPLAINING AND MAKE AN APOINTMENT WITH AN EAR DOCTOR 'CAUSE WE ARE GOING TO NEED HEARING AIDS AFTER THIS!

"That's not fair!"

"Oh HELL no!"

"Can't we go somewhere else?!"

"I AM NOT GOING TO STAY NEAR THOSE PEOPLE!

Ok, I don't want a hearing aid for the rest of eternity. I stood up.

"EVERYONE QUIET!" I screamed. Everyone went quiet and Reeve looked at me like he was shocked. Yes I have a voice. Yes I'm gonna use it. No I do not care that people might not care about what I say.

Oh boy now everyone is looking at me. Oh no oh no oh no.

"Just-just s-sit down and listen to what he has to s-say," I said and sat down more embarrassed than I was before.

"I thought you were the shy human in your group," the guy by The-Girl-Next-To-Me said. I rolled my eyes.

"I'm not human, idiot. I'm a Hybrid with a capitol-" I was cut off because as soon as he heard "Hybrid," he jumped over The-girl-Next-To-Me and tackled me to the ground. He had one hand wrapped around my throat and a knife out before you could say Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.

It was like a bomb went off. Kadaj immediately had Scouba out and everyone went for their weapons and had them pointed at the people they didn't know.

Oh hey! I have black spots dotting my vision! And they're going growing bigger. That's not good. I'm not getting enough oxygen and oh my GOSH get this guy to stahp choking meh! AAAAGHH!

"Stark, let her go," The-Girl-Next-To-Me said.

"She's a hybrid, Zoey. She could kill you," the Stark guy said. Hey, I know more names now! And I feel sleepy. Please let me go, dude. :D

Kadaj looked like he was about to kill this Stark guy.

"Let her go or I swear, I will kill you," Kadaj growled. The guy let go and I scrambled up. I waved my arm and my Dragonsword came from whichever room it was I and appeared in my hand. I am going to have to have a weapon around this Stark idiot.

I took a few deep breaths, grateful that I could breathe again.

"It's Hybrid with a 'h,' you idiot! It's like you vampyres with your 'y' and not 'i' and trying not to get yourselves killed by hunters," I glared at him as I said this.

"It's the same thing right?" He asked. Oh boy. I need to explain some shit to this guy.

"Ok, I am not a hybrid of vampire and werewolf, ok? I'm half angel, half demon, half Time Lord, half Sayion," I said. He glared.

"It's the same damn thing. You'll kill any vampyre high priestess you see," Stark snapped back. Wait what? What da hell are you on Stark?! He looked at Reeve.

"This is exactly why your plan would never work. Any type of hybrid is ruthless and should die," he pointed at me as he said this. Well, this guy is a bit too dramatic and shit and probably a major in drama or whatever but seriously, that's offensive!

"You take that back," I said, turning demon.

"Lyra, settle down. I want to kill him too but we can't right now, ok?" Kadaj said.

"I'm not taking that back. It's the truth," Stark said.

"No it's not," I said. He rolled his eyes.

"You're just a stupid little ShinRa Freak. That's what makes you being a Hybrid worse," he said. Oh hell no! You did not just call me that, you asshole! My eyes widened.

"Excuse me?" I asked. He just smirked. Kadaj punched him in the face. Oh thanks. But I kinda wanted to punch the guy. Oh well.

Stark stood up and attempted to punch Kadaj back. Kadaj just dodged.

"Ok, let's just stop fighting and at least try to make this stupid plan work. She may not be a vamp but she'd be a really powerful fledgling," Zoey said. Yeah, ok. I've had enough of this craziness. I facepalmed.

"I'm a freaking Hybrid, you stupid idiots! I'm not a vampyre, not a werewolf, not a witch, not anything except half angel, half demon, half Time Lord, half Sayion! Oh my gosh," I said. A blonde girl behind Zoey walked over to me.

"Do you have a crescent moon mark anywhere on you?" She asked. Oh. My. Gosh. JUST LISTEN TO MEH YOU- GRRRRRRRRRRRR!

"Did you not just hear me?" I asked slowly. "I. Am not. A vampyre. I am a Hybrid. Stahp bein' stupid and actually use your brain."

The vamps wrinkled their noses. Apparently they weren't getting the message. Oh boy this is going to be hell.

"But your friends said that you-" a vamp tried.

"Ok. You know what? I don't really care right now. I'm not in a good mood and I'll just deal with your stupidity later. Jeez Louise people!" I facepalmed. Again.

"...So ya. You're all going to have to get along and work together. And if you don't want to get along, just think about all the people that will die if you don't," Reeve said, trying to get back to business. Everyone looked skeptical and looked at Reeve and Fury like they were idiots. Which this might have been a really bad idea.

Fury sighed.

"Let's just take them all to the training room," he said. A moment or two later, all three groups of people followed Reeve and Fury down a couple of halls and into a into a large room. It looked like the training arena from the Hunger Games. Everyone stuck to their groups and either sat there or practice. Talk about awkward.

I exaggerated my sigh. I was getting really bored and trying not to think about Luke was getting really hard. So I took out a few practice dummies with my sword. LOGIC! :D

"Nice. I guess you really were in ShinRa," Zoey said from behind me. Ugh. No! I don't want to talk to any more vamps. I rolled my eyes.

"Well, obviously," I mumbled. The aircraft-carrier-in-the-sky jolted. I screamed a little as we were all thrown to the floor.

"Relax, kid. It's just a little turbulence," Zoey said. the giant ship jolted again and we were all thrown down. Zoey started to look like she doubted her turbulence theory. A voice on the P.A. started saying that we lost an engine. Oh greeeaat! I told you that we were gonna crash, people! Jeez Louise, people don't listen.

"Turbulence, my ass!" I yelled an ran out of the room to help. Well, I was going to help but some stupid Deepground idiots. Well, now I have to explain something new.

So Deepground has a branch that is in charge of the government that they called the FBR, which stands for the Federal Bureau of Reformation. (Author's Note: the FBR is from the Article 5 Series. It's a book series and I don't think that I spelt bureau right. So if it's not the right word, sorry. :D) People gave them a nickname: the Moral Militia, or MM. They're still part of Deepground so they're horrible to the citizens of the Planet. They arrest random people, have a bunch of worthless Statutes that really mean nothing because they are still bad at enforcing them. Except they're getting better at enforcing them. And that's bad.

"Stop!" An MM soldier yelled. I smiled and waved before turning around and running back into the training room. I was in time for Reeve and Fury to come in and lock the doors. Fury typed in a code in the keypad in the wall and the training room started to drop.

"Are you trying to kill us?!" Someone yelled. I would go with YES!

It stopped dropping about halfway down and landed safely on the outskirts of Midgar. Everyone stopped freaking out. Thank you! We all stood up on shaky legs.

"What the hell were you trying to do to us?" Tifa asked.

"All of you things are waiting at your new apartments. Good luck," Fury said. Oy vey this is not going to be fun.

...-...

The next morning, I woke up in my bed, in my room at Helga Sim's house. Honestly, I thought I was gonna wake up in that bubble. I rolled over to look at the time and- what the heck is that?! Who gave me a necklace?! Why do I feel like I'm forgetting something?!

I sat up and picked the treble clef necklace up from my alarm clock. It was on a silver chain and was really pretty in a simple way. Which I actually like that it's so simple. I flipped the steel treble clef in my hand a couple of times.

"Happy birthday," a voice said. I jumped a little. Kadaj was leaning on my wall by the door. Oooook then.

"How long have you been standing there?" I asked. He smirked.

"Long enough to know you talk in your sleep," he replied.

"What did I say?" I asked suspiciously. He just smirked and leaned on the wall some more. Well DAMMIT! I probably said his name a few times.

That's not weird, is it? Right?

He moved to sit on my bed. What is going on with life and glllllllllllll... Brain? ... Brain? Brain! Ah dammit my brain's not working right.

Glllll lalalala...

Yup. It's not working right.

"So what are you going to do today?" Kadaj said. I stopped spacing and looked up at him.

"Huh?" I squeaked. Kadaj looked at me like I had a bug on my nose.

"I said, 'what are you going to do today.' It's your birthday," Kadaj said. Oh right. That's what he asked. Brain are you gonna work right? Are you gonna help me answer? No? Well shit I'm screwed.

I shrugged. Thanks for the help, brain, I thought. Kadaj chuckled.

"Well just as a fair warning, people are waiting to bombard you with birthday presents," he said. Oh no.

"Yay. Social time," I said sarcastically. I laughed nervously. "Presents are fun but talking to people is just really awkward to me," I said quickly. Kadaj nodded.

"I know. I've known you for awhile, Lyra. Are you ok?" He asked.

No.
"Yes. I'm fine!" I said with a smile. Oh boy this is really awkward.

We were silent for a moment.

"Sorry for letting you get kidnapped," Kadaj blurted out. I looked at him. Whoa whoa whoa! Hold up for a second!

"W-what? It's not your fault. If it's anybody's fault, it's mine. I'm the one who went looking for the souls that I sensed," I said. Please don't beat yourself up for this, Kadaj.

"Yuffie didn't tell you? Well, that's surprising," he said back. My eyebrows rose.

"Tell me what?" I asked suspiciously. He shrugged.

"I didn't really sleep or eat much because I was too busy trying look for you," Kadaj said after I thought he wasn't going to answer. I looked at him.

"You're kidding," I said. Really?! Dude, don't just- gahhh! What did I just tell you! Well technically I thought it so you didn't really hear it but still!

"No, I'm serious," Kadaj said. I had to remind myself to keep breathing when I realized he was actually really serious.

Kadaj stood up. "Here I'll help you put it on," he said.

"Put what on?" I asked. He pointed at my necklace. Oh. I had forgotten about the necklace. That's really weird because it's shiny and I like shiny things.

I made a tiny nod and handed him the necklace. I turned around and he put it on me.

"Thanks," I said with a smile.

"Don't tell anyone I gave it to you, please," Kadaj said in my ear before he left my room.

...

...

...

...

Oh boy.

I sat there awhile thinking about what just happened before I got dressed. I wore a purple tank top, a green tank top, shredded black jeans and some boots. My shirt was black with a skull that had a pink bow and hearts for eyes. One sleeve had sagged down so that my shoulder was showing but it was supposed to be that way.

I smiled and looked at the necklace in the mirror. It was really pretty... Oh shit I forgot to say thank you. Damn it. I'll just tell him later then. I smiled and went downstairs. I was listening to very good music and walking down the stairs and everyone from AVALANCHE yelled "SURPRISE!"

I made a screeching noise that sounded like an angry cat and jumped back up to the top step. I heard some snickers and laughs as Yuffie ran up the stairs.

"Surprised much?" She said, trying not to laugh. I looked up at her and hissed. She started laughing.

"At least you're not latched onto the ceiling," she said in between giggles. How the hell does Vincent put up with her?! GUUUHHHH!

Bear came barking up the stairs to lick my face while Pudding rubbed up against my back. Zoey (followed very closely by Stark the Master of Strangling) walked up the stairs.

"B-T-Dubs, the rest of the Red Vampyres are down in the basement. And Happy damn birthday, I guess," Zoey said. She does not seem like a very energetic person. And why would I care about red vamps? And why are there red vamps?! Are there purple vampyres, too or something? Oy vey.

The blonde vamp from earlier came up the steps. I had found out that her name was Stevie Rae. She and Stark were covered in thick blankets to keep the sun from touching them. I guess that red vamps can burn in the sun. Ha ha ha it's like, 'BURN BITCH BURN!' ... ... ... Ok so that was weird. Just ignore that, if it creeps you out. :)

"Nice necklace," Stevie Rae said. Yuffie frowned.

"Yeah. Where did you get it?" She asked suspiciously. Oh no! Kadaj! She's onto us!

"From my jewelry box," I lied with a smile. "There's a bunch of jewelry that no one's really seen me where before."

Yuffie shrugged.

"Yeah I guess that's true," she said. Whew. But she still doesn't look entirely convinced.

The rest of the day was really fun and thankfully, I got mostly gift cards and books. Thaaaaaaank goodness!

But too bad nightmares ruin fun stuff...

I don't know what exactly triggered the nightmare but I have a feeling that it might have been Luke dying. I haven't had many nightmares for a while, which is weird because I have them a lot. I think my last nightmare was around Easter time...

I was in my crib. Mama and Daddy and Percy were looking over the railing.

"Tell Lyra night-night, Percy," Mama said.

"Nightie-night, sissy," Percy said. He was three years old at the time. Or four. I can't remember how far apart we are exactly... Daddy laughed a little.

"Let's get you tucked into bed, Perce," he said. Percy giggled.

"You say night-night to her, Daddy," he said. Daddy did and then he tucked Percy in his bed down the hall.

"What are we going to do with those boys, sweetheart?" Mama said. I giggled. "Yeah... Night, Lyra-Bug," Mama said. She kissed my forehead and plugged in the Minnie Mouse nightlight Daddy had gotten from a planet the last time he was in the T.A.R.D.I.S.. Mama turned off the ceiling light and left the room. I fell asleep.

An hour later, I woke up to a giant shadow above my crib.

"Well, I guess Hannah Silvertounge made a new Hybrid. It would be a shame if something happened to her little 'Lyra-Bug,'" it chuckled venomously. I may have been six months old at the time but I knew who it was. Crowley the King of Hell. I started crying. Mama came in, wondering what was wrong probably. She actually probably thought I was hungry or something. She gasped when she saw Crowley.

Again, I was just six months old but I knew Mama was going to get hurt.

"No! Please don't hurt her," Mama pleaded. Crowley laughed.

"Why? She and that boy of yours are off the angel and demon radar. It took me forever to find you," he said. "I've just come to end this."

"Take me instead. Just leave my children alone," Mama said.

"Well as the sister of the Prince of the Sayions, you must be used to getting what you want, Princess Hannah." Crowley had the nerve to mock her.

"Please!" Mama begged.

"Hannah?" Daddy called.

Crowley smiled. "Well I guess so. But you're really not saving anyone here, Hannah."

Mama ignored him and ran over to me.

"It's ok, sweetie, it's ok... Mama loves you, Lyra-Bug. I'm sorry-" Mama told me before hitting the ceiling and bursting into flames. Daddy ran in, grabbed me, and ran out. But the memory turned into a nightmare and I was suddenly sixteen year old me and I was standing in the middle of the room in the flames. I caught fire.

I rolled out of bed screaming.

"MAMA! MOMMY! PUT THE FIRE OUT, MOMMY! PUT THE FIRE OUT!" I opened my eyes but all I could see was smoke and fire.

Fire was everywhere. Fire, fire, fire.

I kept screaming and scooted into the corner on the right side of the room, closest to the door. I heard people shouting in the hall and my door opened.

"Is she having a nightmare again?" Someone groaned.

"Lyra! We're trying to sleep," another person said.

The fire was everywhere and I heard Crowley laugh and my mother scream.

"MAMA!"

"Lyra, wake up. It's just a dream," I heard Kadaj say. He was hugging me.

...Smoke and fire everywhere...

I kept screaming.

"Shh it's ok," Kadaj said.

"Get out get out get out," Yuffie shoved people out of my doorway and closed the door behind her. There was still some complaining and groaning as everyone went back to bed.

"D-don't leave me!" I whimpered into Kadaj's shoulder.

"I'm not. I'm right here. Just calm down," he said. I realized that the fire was just in my imagination and the smoke was actually tears.

"I'm right here, Lyra. I won't leave you," Kadaj was saying. He rubbed my back.

"Crowley killed Mama," I said. Kadaj laughed a little.

"I know. You kept cussing him out in your sleep," he said. I realized I was hugging him back. I was too scared to be embarrassed.

"I'm s-sorry for w-waking you up," I said.

"Lyra, I haven't seen you this scared before and I've known you since I was twelve and you were, ten and a half... I think," Kadaj said. "And I've seen you fight really creepy, scary people."

"Yeah, well, still," I said, feeling a little bit more like my derpy self. He laughed a tiny bit.

"Just go to sleep-"

"What if it comes back?" Usually after nightmares, they come back to me the next time I close my eyes. Kadaj smiled at me.

"I'll be right here, Lyra. Don't worry about it," he said. He picked me up and put me under my covers on my bed. Then he sat on the ground by my bed.

"Just go to sleep, Ly," he said. I didn't want to sleep, but I did. When I opened my eyes, Kadaj was still sitting on the ground by my bed. He was sleeping. I looked at my alarm clock. It was 5:30. Too. Early. Teen. Side. Taking. Over. Gah!

"Ly. Lyra. Ly!" Kadaj was shaking my shoulder. "Lyra wake up."

I opened my eyes. Oh great.

"What was I screaming about this time?" I said with a yawn, sitting up and rubbing my eyes.

"Nothing. You were just talking in your sleep. I thought you needed something," Kadaj said, rolling his eyes. I frowned.

"What do you mean?" I asked. He smirked.

"You just said my name once or twice," he said. I blinked.

"What are you-"

"You told me that I couldn't steal your chocolate chip cookies," Kadaj said. I smiled a little.

"Oh good," I said.

Later at breakfast, everyone was walking on eggshells around me. Greeeeat I'm a time bomb again.

"So what the hell was your nightmare about?" Zoey asked. AVALANCHE and I froze.

"What? What did I do wrong?"

"You don't ask that," Yuffie said. Zoey scowled.

"Well, why not?" She asked.

"If you want to be woken up in the middle of the night, ask away. But if you don't want to, then don't ask," Kadaj said, grumpily. I felt a twinge of guilt. Kadaj is in a really bad mood because of my stupid nightmare.

"Jeez sor-ry," Zoey said with an eye roll.

From the rest of November to February of next year, everything was kinda boring. We still argued with the vamps and the Avengers but hey! What are you gonna do? We three groups don't like each other! But as the months went by, I got to make friends with Maka and her friends, Helga Sims, and a couple of vamps. Nobody really worked together very well... Until February...


Wooo! That was fun to write! I hope those moments were adorable enough! In the next chapter... SOMETHING BIIIIIIIG AND SCARY HAPPENS and SOMETHING BIIIIIIG AND AAAAAA-DORABLE HAPPENS! I CAN'T WAIT TO WRITE IT! GLAHHHHHHHHHHH! Anyway, I hope you liked this chapter and the nightmare scene. I worked really hard on it!

Please REVIEW! Thanks!

Sayonara, peeps!
