Demonic Midgar
It was a normal day in Midgar people were out in the streets engaging in conversation, Shopping, Children playing hide and seek it was just an normal day in Midgar. It was a 3 months after the events of Deep Ground everything was back to normal or so it seemed at the time. Our story begins with Cloud leaving on another delivery for Rufus Shinra.
Cloud trudged in to Rufus's office he was pretty tired since he has been delivering things all week. "Here Rufus I brought your secret stash…"
Rufus came over to cloud a twinkle in his eye he only ever done that when he received something dirty. "Ah! Thank you Cloud I thought I had lost this."
"Uh Rufus are you sure its normal to be into that sort of stuff, its kind of weird." Cloud asked quite worried and confused.
"Nonsense Cloud, Demonic Yaoi is all the rage right now."
"For rabid fan girls…" Cloud replied smugly under his breath
"Did you say something" Rufus asked curiously
"…Nope not a word"
Rufus knew Cloud said something but he didn't let it bother him. "Anyways there was a reason for you coming here, there has been some rumours."
"About what?" Cloud asked suspiciously"
"There have been reports about two young men with white hair sighted near Kalm, Just outside of Midgar."
"Sounds like some Sephiroth copies."
"Well were not sure every time we try to question them they run off."
Cloud began to get suspicious who could these people be could they be other Sephiroth copies just like Kadaj and his gang were?
"So what does this have to do with me." Cloud asked but he already knew the answer.
"Well you do have all the abilities of a SOLDIER so why not?"
"You just like pissing me off don't you?"
"Pretty much." Rufus smiled smugly.
"Fine ill look for them but you have to give me a better description instead of they are young men with white hair, its not really that descriptive, Ya know."
"Well the only other evidence we have is one of them has a claw on his right hand. That glows a bright, blue hue." Rufus handed him the picture.
"Okay then ill set off right now." Cloud headed out the door but Rufus called after him just before he left.
"Okay but remember be careful wouldn't want our little SOLDIER to go and get himself killed would we.
Cloud then sets off for Kalm. Meanwhile in Kalm the summer festival is in full swing people are dancing and singing in the streets it's a big celebration.
In the midst of one of the crowds in Kalm the two white haired men are enjoying the festivities well one of them is.
"Man this is some fling eh kid?" People dancing and drinking my kind of party, Dante laughed.
"Well its not mine if we stay here much longer those weird looking guys in the suits will find us again", Nero said gruffly.
"Aw chill out Nero loosen up for once, have some fun"
"How can I "loosen up" when were getting chased after", Nero sighed nervously.
"Look here kid were surrounded by hundreds of people who all look pretty wasted. Even if they did know we were here they wouldn't be able to catch us cause of all these people so you don't have to worry."
"Fine whatever but can you please not get drunk you do remember what happened last time don't you?" Nero said mockingly.
"Hey that was an accident they were very attractive looking women," Dante replied.
"They were transsexuals", Nero was enjoying making fun of Dante's "little mistake"
"Well they were pretty hot for trannies if I do say so myself." He replied like it was nothing then again it is Dante nothing really bothers him.
"Fine do what you want but I'm not getting dragged into your business, I'm gonna look around a bit more I'll meet up with you later." Nero began to leave hastily.
"Kay see you later kid remember to watch out for those trannies!" Dante called after Nero he always loved winding him up.
"Same to you too old man!" Though Nero always knew how to deal with him."
Cloud has just arrived at Kalm he begins to look for the two suspects, meanwhile Nero is looking around the small town and trying to get away as fast as possible from a drunk Dante.
"Phew now I can finally breath again now that I'm out of that freaking crowd. Well since I'm here I might as well take a look around." Nero headed off he looked all around the town in the various shops, café's he even passed by a really creepy sex shop "Why in the hell would a place like this have a shop like that" Nero thought to himself it disgusted him to quite an extent.
"How did I even manage to get dragged along into this place" Nero just realised how far he had walked he was in the very alley ways of the town. Though Nero was a strong warrior and could hold his own in battle he had even fought Dante the son of Sparda and managed not to die then again Dante was probably holding back but even though he had done all that there was only thing that worried him was dark alley ways he always feared in case some one jumps out and tries to rape him since Nero was bisexual that's what he worried about a lot.
"Damn I hate places like this give me the creeps…" Nero walked through the alleys cautiously until he came to an opening there were two men there one was a drunk lying on the ground, and the other was a blonde young man, well built and about Nero's height, he had the spikiest hair Nero had ever seen. The blonde man was conversing with the drunk, Nero decided to eavesdrop on them.
" Excuse me but have you seen anyone with this" the man showed the drunk a picture of…a claw…Nero's claw!? At this point Nero had just realised what was going on.
"Shit that guy's after me I better get out of here" Nero was about to run off when he heard a cry for help coming from the drunk.
"What the hell's going on he thought to himself" Next thing he saw was a demon attacking the drunk and the blonde man. Nero knew the man was looking for him but he couldn't let the drunk die so he risked it.
"LEAVE THEM ALONE YOU BASTARD" Nero grabbed the demon with the devil bringer and slammed its face into the ground, its head crushed into dust. The body then dispersed, Nero stood triumphantly the blonde man was completely astonished he had never seen something like that before in his life. He then noticed the man's claw was a match with the picture that was the suspect white hair had a claw on his right hand. Nero turned round and checked if they were okay the drunk was knocked out but the blonde man was fine.
"So they sent you?" Nero asked the blonde man he couldn't take his eyes away from him he didn't know why he just couldn't…
"Yeah Rufus sent me after you and your friend but now I see I had nothing to worry about since I can tell that your not here to hurt anyone"
It was quite tense between the two men Nero didn't feel like answering back he was just about to leave when the man stopped him.
"Wait I wanted to thank you for saving me from that monster but I need to ask you what is that thing?" He pointed to Nero's claw it was glowing a bright blue.
"It's the devil bringer" Nero wasn't comfortable answering all of these questions though he couldn't help it the man was so engaging.
"Devil Bringer… I take it you're a demon then." Nero was shocked how did he know. "Its actually just my arm that's demonic though I guess you could say I'm half demon."
" I see well since both of us aren't here to kill each other we might aswell introduce ourselves. The blonde man put out his hand.
"I'm Cloud" Nero still couldn't believe the man was introducing himself to him wasn't he meant to capture him he finally just thought well it cant hurt and decided to introduce himself. "The name's Nero"
"Not a bad name"
