Chapter 9: Post Confrontation

Tifa Lockhart was getting more and more worried about her ninja friend. It had now been two days and she hadn't come down yet. Anytime she knocked on the shinobi's door, she was met with only silence. She couldn't go in because it was locked.

"What are you doing in there, Yuffie?" She whispered, the worrying (again) getting worse.

Yuffie Kisaragi found herself again staring at the floor miserably. She wasn't sure what to do now. This was the third morning of her not leaving her room. She didn't have big Vinn—Vincent. Hell, even Little Vinnie was downstairs (hopefully) in the safe care of Tifa. She thought about how hungry she was, then tossed the treacherous threatening thoughts away, refusing to leave the room.

Cloud Strife plopped into his seat, utterly confused. He had both boxes sitting in front of him, mocking him. He'd tried to trace them. Nothing. He'd tried to fingerprint them. Nothing. He knew Reeve could help him but Reeve failed to answer Cloud's calls. All fourteen of them.

"Reeve, it's Cloud. I need your help with something."click

"Reeve ,it's Cloud. Call me back, please."click

"Tuesti. It's Cloud Strife. I've got a dilemma that I need help with."click

"Leviathan, Reeve!"click

Cloud talked to himself for the rest of the morning.

Vincent Valentine called Tifa for the fourty second time since two days ago.

"Hello?" It was 8:32, the exact time every morning.

"Tifa."He'd said.

"She hasn't come out yet, Vincent…" She said.

"Do you think she's alright?"

"I-I don't know, Vincent. I hope so."

"May I try again?" he asked timidly, as he did every morning.

"Of course you can, Vincent." click

After trying to get Yuffie again, Vincent went home, worried even more. He'd spent almost all day sitting or standing at her bedroom door. He now sat at the edge of his bed, holding the doll.

"What can I do to make it better, my little shinobi?" He almost whispered, mostly to himself.

'Fix it.' Chaos said getting caught up, Vincent actually went along with it.

"How?"

'Go to her, stupid.'

"I can't. Her door is locked, she won't answer when I call—"

'She's got a thing for you, Vinnie. Go to her. She will accept you.'

"I want to give her time. She probably doesn't love me." Perfectly perched on the exact corner of the bed, staring at absolutely nothing, waiting for something – anything, really – to happen. And happen it did.

Vincent walked into Seventh Heaven with a guilty purpose.

What are you doing, Host?

'Atonement' he thought back to Chaos.

What about the Shin-Ra plan? I like the quiet…

'Slince, Chaos.' He snapped.

Whatever…

"Hello, Vincent."

"Evening, Tifa. May I go see Yuffie?"

"Erm…only door on the left." She said tentatively, wondering what he was up to.

"Thank you." And he set off toward the staircase. Vincent pressed an ear to the door.

It's soundproof. Just go in.

Vincent knocked twice and opened the door slowly to reveal a broken shinobi. His broken shinobi. She hadn't even heard him come in. She normally would have noticed him. Maybe she did, and just didn't want to aknowledge him. He couldn't blame her. He would hate himself, too.

He sat on the edge of her bed, staring at her small, crumpled body. Fragile. He thought. She must've felt it shift with his weight. She must hate him.

"Yuffie..." He said softly. Nothing. He decided to try again.",Yuffie?"

She made a small whining sound.

"Yuffie... Are you alright?" Nothing. But then, she shook her head, making another sound; this one sounded like a sob. That's when he panicked. He wasn't prepared for this. But he'd try. He placed a hand on the small of her back, rubbing in little circles in attempt to soothe her. She made that terrible sobbing sound again."Yuffie... I'm so sorry. I..."

Then, she surprised him. She turned to face him. Her eyes were red and puffy, but he still thought she was beautiful. But she surprised him.

Big time.

She grabbed the arm that was tracing her back softly, and pulled him down beside her. His eyes were wide, and his eyebrows were up.

She laughed", You dummy." She said softly, and pulled herself close to him, putting their faces just inches apart. And then she kissed him. She kissed him for all she was worth. Every insh of his body was on fire." I love you, you dummy." She whispered.

And he smiled.
