Man, I have TWO reviews. That does NOT help my self-confidence! ( Enjoy.
-Year later-
The voice never came back while you were with Kadaj. So you stuck by him almost 24/7. Plus, he was kind of hot. You have to admit. If it wasn't for the mother thing you would totally try to get him out of this forest. You know, date. What not. But you usually sparred with Loz or talk about how cool Yazoo is. And how fun it is to say his name. But when they do go out, you go with them. Always by Kadaj. He always protected you too. But today was different. You wanted to go and actually fight this time. So you did. You were in a weird mountain that looked like a volcano, but it wasn't. Everything was foggy so you could barely see. Your sword was at the ready as you advanced. Behind you. The voice was back. Kadaj wasn't with you. You turned and swung your sword. It made a loud clang with a metal pole thing. It was Baldy. You stared at him.
"Baldy? What are you—" You were cut off when another metal pole came at you. You ducked at the last second after sensing movement near your head. You swung your sword at the person, they screamed and blood flew everywhere. You turned back to Baldy, he was gone. Good. He's coming. Gemini. Go find him. You knew who the voice was talking about. So you ran to your left. It was foggy, you couldn't see anything. You heard your name being called. "Gemini!" It sounded like Loz. What is his problem?! Yelling your name in the battle field! His motorcycle came towards you and he grabbed your hand, hauling you up on your motorcycle. Somehow he got both motorcycles coming at the same time. He was just magical like that. You rode on. The farther you went the more you could hear a helicopter and gun shots. It was Yazoo. You knew it. You sped up on your bike. Yelling and screaming continued. It sounded like a massacre. Gemini. Hurry up. You snarled and stood up on your bike, you could tell that someone was in front of you and Loz. You flung yourself at the person. It felt like hitting a wall when you ran into them. And oh, you've felt running into a wall before. Your bike went skidding on its side up to you and Loz went right past you. You twirled your sword, while straddling the person. You caught a glimpse of another sword. The man was about to swing. So instead of killing him you blocked yourself. When both swords hit each other light bounced off and you saw who you were about to kill. It was, of course, Kadaj. You both stared at each other. That's why the voice went away, duh. Both swords were glowing for some reason, but you shrugged that off. The thing that hit you was that someone shot at you. It hit you in the shoulder and you looked up. The helicopter was right above you. Why didn't you freakin hear it?! You snarled at it as it shot more, rolling away from the bullets while pulling Kadaj around with you. This was awkward. Finally when you stopped he was on top and you saw one more bullet coming straight for him. You kicked him off you and took it instead. You screamed as it went threw your stomach. The helicopter retreated.
"That's payment for always having to protect me!" You yell at him, he was now kind of far away since you kicked him. It was a powerful kick.
"I heal faster than you!" He scolded you as he walked up to you.
"No you don't. I am an ex-SOLDIER. You just didn't know it." You stuck your tongue out at him. He rolled his eyes and bent down to pick you up, bridal style. You protested but he put a finger on your mouth, telling you to shut up. He was carrying you to your bike. Since for some odd reason he could tell were Yazoo and Loz were. Show off. But while he was carrying you it was really really weird. I mean, you didn't want to bleed all over the person that you thought was EXTREMELY hot. Right? But your vision was fading a bit. Too much blood lost isn't very good. You grabbed onto his shirt/vest/whatever-he-was wearing-at-the-moment with your hand. The nausea was coming. The fog was clearing up a bit though. Although you blacked out when he reached Yazoo and Loz.
-Time Jump!-
You sat up quickly. You looked around frantically. No one was around. The forest was looking quite spooky right now. You heard rustling in the bush next to you.
"What the hell!?" You nearly shout as you back away from the bush. Where was your sword?! You caught the sight of red.
"Come out. I see you." Your voice quivers a bit. A man walks out of the bush. You knew him, but you backed away. He scarred you. Even if he did save you from your death. He had his gun out, no telling what he could do.
"Vincent." You whisper. He only looked at you, "It's me, Gemini. Remember?" He continued to stare and you sighed. "The girl that jumped out of the window and high jacked Cloud's bike."
"I know who you are. I just thought you would be dead by now." He says with no emotion. He had a calming presence, you just didn't want that right now.
"Cut the crap." You snap, it pissed you off that he thought you couldn't live this long. "I was battling Sephrioth thank you very much. Plus I have been training."
"With Kadaj and his gang."
"Of course!"
"Why?"
"Well, their nice to me and extremely hot, I mean, have you seen that mans ab-"
"No. Why did you run away?" He was referring to you running away from his house a year ago. You stayed silent, "I thought so."
"You wouldn't believe me if I told you." You glare at him.
"You were just running away."
"No! When I'm with Kadaj I don't hear his voice! They treat me like I'm something in this world! He doesn't treat me like I'm a nothing that doesn't deserve to live!" You shout at him. You stood up. Only to fall back down. You re-opened the wound in your stomach. It was already bleeding threw the bandage and your shirt. Vincent knelt down beside you.
"Don't push yourself again."
"Why do you even care? I'm not on your side." You ask, tears were in your eyes again. He made you PMS-y.
"You…remind me of someone I knew." He stands up. Both of your heads whip to the left. Someone else was coming. Vincent looked at you one last time and then disappeared threw the bushes. When the person came threw the bushes it was someone else. It was Cloud. What the hell is with all these random people? You were kneeling on the ground, your hands on your stomach. Where was Kadaj? Cloud looked at you.
"I found my bike." He states. You stare at him and start to laugh. But then you stop, that was a bad idea. You coughed up some blood. The wound was still bleeding.
"Where is Kadaj?"
"I'm trying to find him. He has Marlene." Cloud takes off without helping you at all. Well, thanks Cloud. You help a lot. You got up and limped to where Cloud was heading. This was extremely boring. And painful. And boring. So, you started to sing, no reason, just to take your mind off your injury. ((red jumpsuit apparatus – face down))
Hey girl, you know you drive me crazy.
One word puts the rhythm in my heart.
Will never understand why you hang around.
I see what's going down.
Cover up with make-up in the mirror.
Tell yourself this is never going to happen again.
You cried and though he swears he loves you!
Do you feel like a man, when you push her around?
Do you feel better now, as she falls to the ground?
Well I'll tell you my friend.
One day this worlds gunna end.
As your lies pummel down and new life she has.
You sing your heart out. You weren't even walking anymore. Too busy rocking out. The wound didn't even hurt.
Face down in the dirt.
She said, "This doesn't hurt."
She said, "I've finally had enough!"
Face down in the dirt.
She said, "This doesn't hurt."
She said, "I've finally had enough!"
You started to laugh at yourself when you ended. That was actually fun! And your voice wasn't half bad. ((it sounds like, Natalie Grant's voice. She sings Held, look it up, its good)) You heard clapping behind you. You looked behind you, your eyebrow raised.
"That was great, yo." Red said. It was Red and Baldy!
"Hey! Baldy! I almost killed you the other day!" You state. You sounded happy about that, which made Red and Baldy look at each other. You ignore that and say, "I'll sing you another if you play with me." You smirked at them. Too much of Loz. They both stood there, looking at you like you had two heads, "Fine." You shrug, but get a different idea.
You laugh and jump as high as you can. Which is pretty high. Higher than a normal human at least. You actually left a hole in the ground from where you jumped from. You looked around while you were still in the air. You saw Kadaj and a bunch of kids to your right. That's the way to go! So when you were coming down from the air you landed on a branch.
"CATCH ME IF YOU CAN!" You shout down at Red and Baldy. You jumped from tree to tree until you were in sight of Kadaj. Of course, they weren't following you. Wimps. You noticed Cloud riding on his bike towards them. This looked fun. You flung yourself from the tree at Cloud. You missed by an inch, but caught onto his sleeve. Your feet dragged on the ground a bit as Cloud swerved from the sudden heaviness on his arm. You finally got a good grip on the ground as you ran with the bike. You had NO clue HOW you were doing this. You smirked at Cloud as you grabbed the break and made him go sliding. At that very moment kids just…fell from the sky. Creepy. Clouds bike went flying to the side. You and Cloud were skidding along the ground. Bullets whizzed by your head. Yazoo had been shooting at Cloud the whole time. Suddenly, you started to cough up some blood. Shit, you thought, the wound. You left Cloud and walked straight for Kadaj.
"I would very much like my sword." You state and he tosses it to you. You catch the handle and fling the sheathe off, but instead of turning around and going for Cloud you jump over their heads and run away from the battle. You stumbled a lot because of your wound. The bleeding wasn't as heavy anymore. You didn't know where you were going. You just needed to get away. Too many battles, you know? But you put down your act of a badass girl. Inside you were a terribly shy girl. You were afraid of a lot. But you needed your sword because it would give you power to heal your wound. Finally, after a little while, you stopped. You sat under a huge white glowing tree. They all glowed, but you liked this one the best. The tree had a, calming presence to it. One that you've felt before. You just couldn't tell why. ((re-read the part when she was all PMS-y if you don't get it at first. HINT HINT WINK WINK)) You leaned against the tree.
"I don't know why I do this every day. I really don't. I try to act badass in front of them. But I'm not. I'm actually scarred of them sometimes." You were talking to your sword. It was glowing white, just like the trees. Your wound was healing.
"I don't know why his voice is in my head. I want to run away. I know I'm pathetic, but I'm scarred. The only reason I'm still alive is because of Vincent." You hear some movement from above you but you ignore it. It was probably just the tree moving.
"But, I'm not around him. So why am I here? I should have just died. My younger brother once told me something. He told me, 'Love gives you courage, being loved gives you strength.' Heh, I wanted to know that feeling. But that was the day before he was killed. I know. I know. I'm just babbling about random things. But I haven't been able to tell any of this to anyone. So why not just say it out loud?" Your wound was completely healed but your sword continued glowing. You heard a lot of movement from above and the wind rushing away. You looked up, but no one was there, only the tree was swaying. You could have sworn…oh well. The calming presence you felt earlier faded away. So you got up and ran back to the battle. Once you got back you saw a red cape swirling around Cloud. The cape shot up and disappeared threw the trees.
"Damn." Kadaj cursed.
"He knows where mother is." Loz said. His voice cracked.
"Don't cry Loz." Yazoo said to him.
"I'm NOT crying!" Loz insisted. You sighed. Kadaj turned around and looked at you. He had a sad look on his face as he walked up to you. He put his head on your shoulder. This was new, but…it didn't scare you. You wrapped your arms around him. Both of you stood like that for some time while Loz and Yazoo were bragging that they were better than the other.
HOLY CRAP! It's LONG!!!
