4. The Chase!
The small black puppy sat bored running his paw through his rough fur and occasionally playing with his dog tag, as Kunsel droned on about his life in Shinra and his 'supposed' friendship with Zack. 'Man even staying with that bad sitter Genesis was better than this!' Then there was silence, Zack wondered if he had suddenly gone deaf or whether Kunsel had stopped talking. Though the first reason was possible, Zack thought it was the latter and focused his attention on Kunsel again.
"Yeah my buddy Zack is one awesome SOLDIER, but one day he's gonna leave us and become 1st Class. Then he'll completely change and he'll think he's too good to hang around us anymore!"
'Hey that's not true! I'll still be the same...Won't I?' Zack whimpered slightly and Kunsel came over and patted his head "Hmm well maybe he won't" Zack saw him smile "Isn't that right Zack?" Zack immediately froze 'Did he find out?'
"I'm not as stupid as you think I am. I know everything" For some reason that last word sent a shiver down Zack's little spine. 'Is he a...Stalker?' Zack gulped for Kunsel certainly looked like one.
Reno continued to walk down the hallways; the red headed Turk had no assignments so far and decided to walk around aimlessly in search of something to do. Just then a blur of red passed by him and he could have sworn it was Genesis. His shades bounced when he shook his head 'First the strange black blur now a red one too, man I really need a vacation from this place and Hojo. Especially Hojo.' The Turk moved on to find Tseng.
Genesis ran down the corridor like a man possessed, his red leather coat leaving a trail of fire behind him. 'Damnit where are you?' Nothing could possibly stop him well nothing except for the group of fans who were permitted into the Shinra building for SOLDIER appreciation day. One of the girls noticed him and screamed "Oh my god! It's Genesis!"
Genesis froze as all eyes turned to face him and let out a sigh 'First I lost Angeal's pup and now I'm going to get crushed. This is not my day...' Not be able to use his magic on non SOLDIER members, due to company policy, Genesis immediately turned and ran the other way as herds of fans chased after him. Reno was so deep in thought of what he was going to do on his vacation that he didn't hear the crowd screeching behind until the last moment. Let's just say poor Reno didn't stand a chance.
Zack glared as Kunsel picked him up and laughed "Oh man I can't believe I said that! But that look you gave, you must understand me or something. You're a clever puppy aren't ya, oh yes you are!" Kunsel began to make weird baby noises and Zack sighed 'Well he proved me wrong, anyone that makes baby noises can't possibly be a stalker...' Screaming came from outside and Kunsel decided to investigate with Zack in hand.
He didn't get too far when he noticed a dust storm at the far end of the corridor "What on earth?" Zack noticed a red dot coming from the dust storm, it had to be Genesis! Taking his chance from the dazed Kunsel he wriggled himself from Kusnel's grasp and ran as fast as he little puppy legs could towards Genesis and the dust storm. Kunsel after mildly dazed realized the pup in his arms was no longer there and noticed said pup running towards the dust storm and ran after him.
Genesis saw the pup running towards him and realized this was his only chance to get him back and with every ounce of energy left focused on getting to Zack. 'There you are! You're in big trouble when I get to you!'
'Genesis, HELP ME!' Kunsel wasn't about to let him get away and managed to get a few other SOLDIERs to chase after him. Genesis after casting both slow on his surroundings and haste on himself was able to scoop Zack up; with Zack in his arms again he looked both left and right: Large crowd of fans behind him and SOLDIERs in front of him. Both spells won't last for too long and sure he could take out the SOLDIERS but that would allow enough time for the crowd to catch up to him. Looking up he saw an air vent. 'Perfect' Grinning he cast fire to blow open the air vent and jumped as high as he could into the vent. Time resumed as both the crowd and SOLDIERs crashed into each other. Zack winced at the sight of fans lying on the ground with various body parts twitching and SOLDIERs groaning. With no-one chasing him Genesis jumped back down narrowly avoiding Kunsel and ran back towards the safety of the 1st Class lounge, praying Angeal had not returned yet.
Tseng really didn't want to know what happened when he first entered the corridor full of people on the ground, but what he did know was there was going to be a very large order to clean up. He sighed and placed a hand to his head for he noticed somewhere amongst the people and SOLDIERs laid Reno who by the looks of it really did deserve a vacation after all.
Zack awed at the amount of food on the table. "I brought some for you and even though you're a bad puppy for leaving, you might as well eat it." Zack looked up at Genesis as he took a few bites to eat. 'Oh so that's his reason for leaving...Maybe I was a bit too harsh on him. Okay so he isn't as bad as I thought he was' Zack with new respect for Genesis began to eat the small bites that Genesis bought for him.
Laying on the sofa again taking up his beloved LOVELESS novel, Genesis began to read once again. As Zack's punishment for leaving, he had to sit on Genesis' chest, (Genesis claimed he wasn't going to leave Zack out of his sight) and listen to every, single, word. Zack fell asleep halfway through Act I and Genesis seeing no point to continue decided to rest after the chase. One thought lingered in his mind. 'Angeal your puppy truly is special...'
Angeal entered the lounge, Sephiroth was back continuing with his paperwork and Genesis was asleep on the sofa. What surprised him the most was his puppy was asleep on Genesis. Sephiroth noticing his friend with a confused/surprised expression decided to answer for him. "I found them like that; it seems Genesis had a very tiring day with Zack"
Angeal chuckled and walked towards the sofa. "Hmm I'll say, I hope you didn't give Genesis too much trouble Zack" He patted Zack's head gently as to not wake him up. Genesis shifted slightly and it was then Angeal noticed his friend's auburn hair styled in a very weird way. "Though something tells me you did Zack" He added with sigh.
"I suppose you didn't see the corridor full of people on the ground, right?" Sephiroth asked rather calmly. Angeal stood up and turn to his friend "Wait, what?" Sephiroth shook his head "It's nothing important really. It just seems like SOLDIER appreciation day turned out pretty well this year" He replied as calm as he questioned.
Angeal arched an eyebrow dismissing what he was just told though at the back of his mind he was curious on what had happened while he was out "Okay...So what news on Hojo?" Sephiroth turned to look at his friend then at the puppy before looking down "Well..."
Hehe I wonder what happened between Sephy and Hojo?
Zack: Woof! Woof! WOOF! (He totally kicked Hojo's butt!)
Maybe?
Anyways I hope you liked the chapter and please continue to review!
Zack: Woof! (Then I'll be closer to changing back!)
Next time: Sephiroth tell us what happened in the lab between him and Hojo, is there a way to change Zack back?
