Chapter 15 - A New Way to Remember

"Reno! Can you get that?" Lou shouted through, referring to the phone. Reno jumped up from his place on the sofa and rushed to the phone, knocking over several pictures and his bottle of beer.

"Yo." Reno said down the line.
"Reno? Is Lou there?" Tifa asked from the other end. "I need to tell her something."
"Yeah sure, I'll just go and get her, yo." Reno sighed, putting the phone on the table.
"Lou! Tifa!"

Lou put Altus down in his crib and he giggled, blinking his huge turquoise eyes, then took hold of her finger. Lou took a while to get him off, then walked through to the phone. Reno was cleaning up the broken beer bottle on the floor. Thank Goddess it was empty.

"Hi Tifa!"
"Oh, hi. Um, listen… The thing is, I'm going to be a Mom."
"Tifa! Oh, I'm so happy for you! When did you find out?"

"Last week. It was killing me not telling anyone but Cloud, you know? So I figured you could keep a secret. I'm a month on, apparently. How's Altus?" Tifa explained, then decided to take the spotlight off herself.

"Shit!" Reno shouted. Lou rolled her eyes at her husband, who had somehow cut himself on shards of glass.
"He's fine. You should see how much he looks like his Dad though. He's even ginger now!" She laughed.

"Not ginger, yo!" Reno yelled, pointing at his hair. Tifa seemed to hear this and laughed.
"Good to know, Lou. And thanks for hearing me out. Say, what are you doing later?" Tifa asked.
"Oh, I um… I'm going out. It's really urgent - Turk business." Reno frowned at her.

When Lou had said her goodbyes she hung up the phone on its white stand and walked back to Altus. Getting a new bottle out of the tray, she handed it to him where he was standing in his crib and he fell down, quite content to just sit there drinking.

"We should give him some alcohol, yo." Reno said, leaning in the doorway. Lou sighed and put her hands on her hips, then walked past him and back to the phone to ring Yuffie. Reno went back to cleaning up his mess, standing the numerous pictures back up, pausing at his wedding photo.

Lou stood, grinning wildly, in a beautiful white dress with long draped sleeves and lace over a shimmering satin skirt. Reno was actually smiling genuinely for once, in a tuxedo. Looking closely you could see Elena in her red bridesmaid dress, and Rude also in a tuxedo standing next to her. Marlene stood in her little purple dress with a basket of flowers in her hands. White carnations, as both Reno and Lou had requested. Denzel stood next to her. Goddess he looked adorable in a tuxedo!

"Still can't stop smiling can you?" Lou joked, taking the photo out of his hands and staring at it herself.

Reno shook his head and snatched it back, putting it down on the little wooden table by their black sofa.
"Best day of my life, yo. And I look damn good in a tuxedo." He boasted.

"Too bad you wouldn't leave your gun behind. You can still see it in half of the photos, you know? I love my dress. Elena looks really good in hers, mind. Can't believe Rude took off his shades!" Lou said, quickly getting chuffed over the tiny little details of her day. Reno raised his eyebrows.

"You remembered all that?" He gasped, then started laughing. Lou looked down at her watch and went upstairs, coming back down in her Turk uniform. Reno caught on and did the same himself. When he came back Yuffie was sat on their couch feeding Altus.

"Hey Yuff. Um, we'll be back in like, an hour yo." He said before being brutally dragged out of the door and into his Jaguar.

When they arrived it was sunny. Elena was crying already, stood with a white carnation in her hands. She placed it down and the Turks all stood there, reciting their life in the past year to their ex-leader's gravestone. Rude was silent, as usual, and Elena spoke with a hoarse voice. Reno however was smiling. He loved still going to see Tseng. That same night every year, they would all go and tell him about their life from where they left off before.

It had been two years now. When Reno and Lou got home Yuffie had managed to get Altus asleep. Lou invited the ninja to stay and watch a movie, like they usually did. So they all sat down and watched Dangermouse. Like they usually did.

Reno woke up in the morning and went to work before Lou had even woken up. He put it through to Rufus that he wanted to get a new Turk in training, and his ask was happily accepted by the president. He was told that all four of the Turks were to go down to the academy in three days, and each would pick a student to train up as a Turk themselves. It was going to need a heck of a lot of work, but the idea of being able to train a Turk himself was a good omen for Reno. He just needed to choose one, then all of the others would do the same. It couldn't be that hard… could it?

A/N: I know this is a bit of a weird ending, but should I do a sequel about the 4 new Turks? Of course they'd ALL be OC's, and the 4 of them would all resemble their mentors in a way - that's why they picked them. Just wonderin that's all. If u want 2 put that in a review or PM me then that's cool, but if I don't get anything I won't make one… Thanks for reading everyone! xXx
