Disclaimer: Okay, this is purely a work of the imagination. There are and will be things that could and most likely would offend you. This fiction is as of right now, incomplete. I do not own any characters unless you've never heard of them… then I most likely made them up. This is a little OC… in many areas… but I did try to get some traits in that fit the characters. Doesn't really fallow any of the storylines. Flames are acceptable because I've gotten them before, just tell me what you didn't like about the story. Good luck… chapter five rating : PG13 on the safe side for language.

Last warning: this story contains rapes and underage sex. Sorry, but that's how it's turning out.

ANYWAYS!!!!

well sorry it took so long to add this chapter. Christmas was crazy... I had a big ass fight with my boyfriend on the 25th... and then we made up when he got back from California... grrrrrrrrr... HE WENT ALL SEPHIROTH ON MY ASS!!! Not the back stabbing Seph, but the 'alone with a certain hot black haired gunman Seph'... so of course I did the only thing I could do... I went all Vincent frickin' Valentine on HIS ass! HA! I win! I win I say!!! Anyways, I hope this is still going good... please don't hurt me...

Chapter 5

Marlene sat in her bedroom, tears dry and long gone, playing chess with Nanaki when Vincent walked in on the two, an absent look of boredom on his face.

"Nanaki, there is a call for you on the speaker phone in the kitchen."

"Who?" Vincent shrugged, not really knowing.

"I think it's Tes'sine." Nanaki looked at the board and groaned as he noticed Marlene trying to steal his knight.

"Rook to E5," he grumbled as he sauntered out of the room, stealing the menacing queen from its place of power. Marlene moved his piece dutifully and looked up at Vincent, a grin playing on her lips. Vincent could only guess at the next series of moves she was going to use… the way she was setting Nanaki up for, she planned to take his king in about three more moves. Vincent wondered if the red cat knew this.

"How are you feeling?" She smiled at him, glad he wasn't mad at her.

"Better." She stood up from the floor and walked over to the door frame where he stood, wrapping her arms around his waist, smothering him in a tight hug. Slowly, Vincent began to hug her back, his eyes looking lovingly at her small frame. He was getting used to having her around so quickly.

"Vincent, let's go visit Tifa and Denzel today. Please?" Marlene whispered, smothering him even more.

"If you wish." He slowly pushed her away, Chaos roared into life again, seeming to mock the tall man. How he would bend so easily for this young mortal while he would not budge an inch for a powerful demon. "Get your shoes on then." He took this time to return to the kitchen.

"Nanaki, we're going to Tifa's, will you come with us or stay here?" He looked out the living room window at the building tops baking in the sun.

"Guess I'll come. It would be nice to get some fresh air." Vincent nodded and opened the refrigerator.

"Looks like we have to go shopping anyways. I'm still unaccustomed to feeding three." Nanaki smiled at his remark.

"You were never accustomed to feeding two. If I were not here, it's quite possible that you'd let yourself starve to death."

"Ready!" Marlene skipped into the kitchen, sporting pale shorts and a dark green tank top. The weather had been rather nice as of lately.

"Well then," smiled Vincent, eyeing Marlene bemusedly "let us go."
