Chapter 2: Mystery man revealed.
"Gu..gugu..guys!" Yuffie yelled. Something wrapped around her waist. She was yanked into the darkness. Only to be stared down by a demon. "Yuffie!!" everyone yelled. Yuffie kicked, punched and bite. She stopped struggling when she felt his grip loosen . He suddenly cloapsed on her, he passed out.
Moments later.
"What should we do with him?" Yuffie asked his body laying limp on the floor. "I say that we kill the little bitch for stealing our materia!'' Cid yelled. "No Aeris wouldn't want us to... I think, besides he's hurt bad." Tiffa said unbuttoning his black trench coat. "So what I stole you're materia too and you didn't kill me." Yuffie said poking herself in the chest. "We should of." Cid said under his breath. "Hey.."
The boys body gasped out for air. Tiffa removed his trench coat revealing three gun shot wounds from Barrette, one in his left shoulder blade, one in his abdomen, and another in his left arm. "For get him we have to deliver this scroll to Red's grandpa, and then I can go home and fix the airship so we don't have to walk no more." Cid said lighting another cigarette. Yuffie walked over to the kid, "Nope no materia…. Hey wait he's a ninja and that means he must have came from Wutai … maybe my dad sent him cause I quit." Yuffie said picking up his trench coat and searching his pockets. "But why would you're dad hire a demon?" Catisith asked. "Maybe he's desperate." Tiffa pulled the bullets out of his wounds and pored a potion on them it healed them enough to stop the bleeding, then wrapped them up. "Kiko come here boy." Yuffie said picking up the kid. She put him on the back of her Chocobo. They were riding north when the boy woke up. "Err…..what happened." the boy looked up and tried to stand up but instead fell. He went to grab anything to stop himself from falling. He grabbed Kiko's tail feathers making the bird throw him and Yuffie off and into a thorn bush. "What the.. where'd the brat go looking back toward a now empty Kiko. "Where'd she go you don't think…" Tiffa looked at Cloud and they quickly turned around. 'Yuffie... where are you?" Lucrecia yelled looking around. Yuffie emerged moments later from a thorn bush. "Ouch …." she pulled a thorn out of her arm. She then dragged out the boy covered in thorns he took the full impact of their landing. " What the hell happened!" Barret yelled. " Kiko threw us off because idiot over there pulled his tail feathers out. "Yuffie yelled pointing to the kid licking his arm. The kid stood up and walked up to Yuffie and bowed, "My apologies princess Kisaragi." "Huh….um right don't call me that." Yuffie looked at the kid as if he was crazy. "Then what shall I call you?" the boy said looking up at her. "Yuffie Kisaragi the world best ninja." she stood up all proud. "And you are?'' " Top ninja my ass...huh oh me I'm Mako Heto Kentaro." Mako stood up and pulled out more thorns. Yuffie growled, I am too best ninja of the whole word!" "Why are you here?" Cloud asked. "I was told to by lord Kisaragi to hunt down and steal materia to bring back Wutai's power and I can not disobey him as much as I wish." Mako said looking down. "Why not?" Yuffie asked, "Because of the power of true names." Mako said. "I've hear of that before we should ask my grandpa when we get their." Red said. " Hop on," yuffie said pating Kiko on the back. he climbs on. "Hiya" Yuffie pulled on the reins.
The chocobo took reared up. Mako quickly grabed on to Yuffie waste. She jumped not expecting him to cling to her but she found her self blushing in the end. They continued their journy to Cosmo cannon.
