-The Black Chocobo: The Rewrite-
In Kalm a day before …
They say that hell has no fury like women scorn. Some people don't believe that. It is quite obvious that those people have never met Melinda. For those who have met her know for a fact that messing with this inhumane female teenager was the worst thing to do.
Well, in her reality anyway.
To others, it just looked like she had her monthlies and was suffering from a bad mood swing. Why you may ask? What would you call a weird looking girl, with big glasses and multicolored braces, throwing a tantrum in the center of Kalm? You know, those tantrums children have where they lay on the floor kicking and screaming? Yeah, that was what Melinda was doing. Okay more of a mental patient than the mood swings.
The tow truck driver had finally arrived back from the middle of nowhere with Fenrir in tow. As he drove into town, he heeded Cloud's advice and kept a sharp eye out. He didn't feel like having a … 'Crazy' girl after him.
In no time at all, the driver had made it to the mechanics. He got out and unloaded Fenrir. The mechanics quickly helped the driver push the bike into the garage as Cloud Strife suggested to avoid a red headed female. They saw the girl before and they did not want her near them. They shut and looked the garage and soon bid each other farewell.
The tow truck driver drove across Kalm to go back to his house for a well-earned shower. On the way there, he noticed that girl again. The scary thing about it? She was blankly staring right at him. He tried not to look back at her as he drove by.
Melinda watched the driver go by before heading in the direction he came from. She saw something black and shiny behind his truck when the guy was driving into Kalm before. 'There is something fishy about that fat driver. And where did he drop that Black and shiny vehicle? I swear it looked like Fenrir. Maybe it was, and maybe it can lead me to my beloved.' Melinda thought before giggling madly. That earned her a few stares.
The present day …
It was nearing night time and Noodle and Flurry were getting quite tired from their run but Zack and Cloud kept pushing them. On their trip Zack told Cloud about how he was back alive.
"Damn these meat sticks! We gotta carry their damn weight with there bags. Stupid ass fat man fools (1)" Flurry huffed, and clearly irritated by hunger, thirst and her legs aching.
"Well my dearest female companion, I must say the sun and wind is great out here. I do say that this atmosphere is most wonderful, even though we are being pushed to our limits," a wheezing Noodle said to Flurry.
"Yo, shut yo damn beak! I don't need yo sucking up to the meat bags!" Flurry tiredly yelled back as she tried to keep running.
"Whatever you say, lovely," Noodle commented back. Flurry huffed as she stopped talking. She knew from experience that when you argue with Noodle, you are not going to win. She failed each time.
"Hey Cloud, don't you think we should let the chocobos have a rest?" Zack looked down at Noodle. The poor chocobo looked like he was about to drop on the ground out of exhaustion. Cloud looked down at Flurry, then Noodle before looking at Zack.
"Yeah, I think we should. I know a good spot around here, it's just about a couple minutes from here then we can take a break." Cloud said to Zack while giving a good pat and scratch on Flurry's head.
"Let's just hope they don't drop underneath us in the time being." Zack lightly laughed as Cloud urged Flurry to go a bit faster.
Once they got there Zack and Cloud quickly hopped of their chocobos and took the packs off, so the large birds could have a rest from there extensive run from the farm. Noodle and Flurry dropped to the ground, huffing and puffing trying to regain their breaths.
Zack looked around, looking at the area they were going to stay. They were at an entrance of a small forest where Cloud was starting to set camp up. If you turned the other way, you were met with fields where the Chocobos could run freely. Maybe Noodle will have fun, finally since he was out of that farm. Zack didn't really care for Flurry.
Both men grabbed the packs and moved it so it was sitting up against a tree. Cloud took a small pack and emptied its contents on the ground before moving closer and separation the bits and pieces.
"Zack, can you go grab some firewood." Cloud asked as the blond man started putting the tent up. Zack didn't reply but went to get some dry wood. Oh Zack wished they could make a bonfire. That would be so much fun. Maybe he would grab a stick and dance around the campfire, that would seem interesting.
After Zack grabbed a good amount of firewood and headed back to camp, he found that Cloud had finished with the tent that Bill had let them borrow.
"Yer two can use dis 'ere tent. It's an old one but when yer done wit' it, yer can just dump it out. It's a two-man tent, so it can keep yer two nice an' snug at night. I don't think yer gonna make it ta Kalm tonight." Bill explained as he clipped the rolled up tent on Noodles harness. Zack shook his head.
Zack walked over to a dirt patch, kicked the dirt around so if anything was growing there, it wouldn't catch alight before laid the sticks down and setting up the campfire. That was until he noticed something was missing. Maybe Cloud has a fire materia. Zack looked around for Cloud and found him giving the chocobos water and greens. Zack shivered lightly from looking at the greens before speaking up.
"Hey Cloud," the blond man looked his way "Do you have a fire materia?"
"Yeah it's in my sword." Cloud pointed at First Tsurugi before putting his attention at stroking Noodles head. The blond took the harness off with the swords still in it, after he finished putting the tent up.
Zack headed to Clouds sword and hefted it up. The weight was surprising perfect. Not too heavy and not too light. It glistened in the setting sun too … oh yeah the sun was setting. Zack quickly located the materia slot that held the fire materia and knocked it out. He aimed the materia at the sticks laid out in front of him and concentrated. Straight away the materia activated and lit the wood on fire.
"Always works," Zack said softly to himself. Zack coated the now lit campfire to get hotter by poking it with a live branch that he tore off a tree when searching for dead sticks. Cloud walked up to him carrying a bag that held food. The blond man sat down next to Zack and opened the bag, pulling out air lock bags that held small pieces of meat and vegetables. He also took out a small metal pot and filled it with water from a bottle before added the food in it do make soup. Zack looked towards Cloud before looking towards the setting sky.
"Beautiful, isn't it." Cloud looked towards Zack before moving his gaze towards the sky. Red, orange, pink, purple and blue streamed across the sky. It was like the Goddess Minerva was painting the sky just for two of them.
Zack moved his head back down and glanced into the cracking fire. When the sun set, the food was ready and Cloud took out two bowls and spoons.
It was nighttime and the chocobos were snoozing peacefully from their hard day. Zack and Cloud had just finished eating their soup and were sitting next to each other enjoy the warmth of the flames.
Zack looked at Cloud in the corner of his eye. The orange glow from the flames reflected on Cloud's face and it just made his skin glow wonderfully. He smiled at Cloud, even though it wasn't caught before looking back at the fire.
Zack sighed loudly before wrapping his arm around Cloud's shoulder. Cloud just looked at him and gave him a questioning stare.
"You look lost in thought," Zack stated.
"Well I was just thinking about how everything is going to change when we go back home. Tifa would be surprised, the gang will be shocked, the kids wouldn't even know you, only through the stories I talk about, W.R.O would think something large is going to come and, who knows, you probably have some fans drifting around." Cloud shuddered knowing how bad fans can get. Since he was the lonely type, it was a bit odd getting stares from people who knew what he looks like. It was a known fact that Cloud Strife tried to hide his identity from the public so that he wouldn't be crowed with people who was asking for this autograph.
"Trust me Cloud, no matter how hard it will be, it would be just fine." Zack pulled Cloud closer to him and without thinking, kissed his head. Cloud stiffened.
'Oh Shit,' Zack thought.
Cloud slowly lifted his head up and looked at Zack wide eye, blushing, and shocked. Did Zack just kiss his head? That was just weird, but yet, it felt right. Cloud blush darkened. Even though Zack noticed it and thought it was quite adorable, he didn't want to say anything. What would Cloud think of him now? After finding out his own affections Zack has been noticing how cute the little movements Cloud made were. Such things like how his nose twitches when he has an itch or when his hands get a bit overheated and tries to cool his them down by slightly shaking them unnoticed by others.
"Zack?" Cloud voice came out in a squeak. Zack removed his arm.
'Well, no point stopping now.' Zack gently placed a hand on Cloud's cheek and slowly moved in to kiss him. When Cloud didn't move, his lips softly connected with Cloud's plush ones.
Cloud was shocked beyond words. His best friend just kissed him! He could feel the man's lips move against his. It was surreal to Cloud because he had never been kissed before. It was such a strange feeling, but it just, felt right towards him. His belly did flip flops and didn't stop. Zack's lips were a perfect match to his own. Nothing in his life felt so good. He only wanted more of this man in front of him.
Zack moved away when he noticed that Cloud wasn't kissing back. He was about to apologies for kissing him when Cloud snaked a hand around the back of his neck and pulled him in for a rough yet passionate kiss. Zack licked Cloud's bottom lip and the blond immediately opened his mouth to let their tongues play. Cloud moved closer till their legs were touching. Zack placed a hand on Cloud's thigh before moving the other hand on the small of his back. They broke the kiss with a pop but kept so close that their noses were touching. Blue looked into blue before they kissed again, softer this time and shorter.
Cloud moved back and stared lustfully into Zack's eyes. Screw the fact that they were two guys. Screw the fact that Tifa's 'happy family dream' wasn't doing to happen. Just the feeling of Zack kissing him could take him over the edge.
"Let's go in the tent, Zack," Cloud whispered softly.
Zack's left eye twitched before he looked at the chocobos then back to Cloud. He swiftly stood up and picked Cloud before heading towards their tent. Cloud licked and nibbled on his ear and wrapped his legs around Zack's waist. Zack smiled and opened the flap to the tent and slowly lowered Cloud down. He then turned around and zipped the tent up.
Cloud grabbed the front of Zack's shirt and pulled him down to meet his lips. Zack got comfortable on top of Cloud and slipped his tongue in the blond's eager mouth. Cloud took off his gloves and unbuckled the belt that held his leg cover.
Cloud's right hand soon roamed down and slipped into Zack's pants and took hold of his shaft. Zack broke the kiss and leaned his head on the blonds shoulder and let out a shuddered breath. Cloud slowly started to pump Zack, earning a delightful little moan from him.
Zack took hold of what sanity he still had and quickly unzipped Cloud's pants and pulled them down till they passed his bum. He then pushed his pants down enough to have his cock free. The blond let go of Zacks member and wrapped his arms around Zack's neck, pulling him into another kiss. Their tongues played swiftly in their mouths as they fought for dominance. Zack soon won but rewards Cloud by grinding his hips onto him, earning a small moan. Cloud wrapped his legs around Zacks hips
Zack kissed up Cloud's jaw line before sucking his earlobe into his mouth and nibbled. Zack soon moved on and like the outta shell and licked all the way around it before moving the way down to his neck.
Cloud moaned heavily at the pleasure of it all. Nothing in his life felt as good as this. The pleasure was overwhelming to him. His cock was so alive and even though it hurt from how erect it was, he couldn't help must want more. Cloud rubbed his cock on Zacks to try to get more of that delicious friction. Cloud soon snaked a hand up Zacks shirt and played with one of his nipples, earning a moan and faster movements on their members. Cloud soon moved his head to suck on the older man's neck. He bit, sucked then licked.
Zack was in bliss. Who thought Cloud could be so … naughty when horny. He was not letting anyone else near Cloud. Nuh uh, not when he's like this. Zack grabbed onto Cloud's hips and thrusted his hips against Cloud's in a steady rhythm. Cloud arched against him.
"Cloud," Zack breathed softly into Cloud's ear. Cloud only groaned in response.
What was it about this blond that Zack couldn't have enough of? Was it his shy nature? Was it his blond, spiky yet soft hair? Who knew what made this man so additive, Zack was glad that he made friends with him, and now, possibly more. Cloud was just arching, moaning, kissing, sucking, and more. It was bliss to an extreme.
Cloud pulled Zack into a kiss before scraping his blunt nails down Zack's back. The older man moan and thrusted harder against Cloud. Both of them were leaking from the feeling of it all. Zack could feel his release coming soon. He opened his blue eyes and looked straight into Cloud's lust filled ones. Cloud's face was flushed, his legs and arms were shaking, his lips bruised from kissing and his neck marked. It was all too much for him.
Zack climaxed, moaning Cloud's name out long and loud. Zack was still moving as he rode out the pleasure.
Hearing Zack come, Cloud legs tightened around the man's hips and whimpered as he came onto their stomachs. Zack soon fell next to Cloud, panting. Cloud turned his head towards Zack.
"Zack, that was … unbelievable," Cloud tiredly said to him. Zack faced Cloud with a goofy smile on his face.
"Really? It was quite believable to me. I just had a sexual encounter with a glorious looking man." Zack laughed softly when he saw a blush appearing on Cloud's face. The smile didn't even budge when Cloud shot him a small glare. The blond then huffed and looked the other way.
"Aww come on Cloud, you know you are sexy." The older man moved to kiss Cloud's still red cheek, before spooning him and wishing him a good night. He got a huff in return.
-The Black Chocobo: The Rewrite-
A/N: It's official, you may throw tomatoes at my face. Look, even I'll do it –gets tomato and splats it on her face-. Ughh, I hate tomatoes with a passion, damn things are gross.
Sorry about the very late update, my PSP was stolen with Crisis Core and Dissidia (I worked over 190 hours on BOTH! I EVEN KILLED THE BLOODLY GODDESS IN CC!) And I was extremely upset about it. I was actually thinking of going on hiatus for a while, but then I'll have more tomatoes and maybe a pumpkin or two thrown in the mix. Farewell my beloved Final Fantasy VII special limited addition PSP with my Beloved Crisis Core and Dissidia. R.I.P 7/5/10. I hope the fools who have stolen it rot in the fiery pits of hell.
… On another note, I got myself a new beta! Her name is 'misaki34' so if you diss her, I'm coming after you with my spoon of doom.
So tell me be lovely readers, did you like the end? Because if my paper is correct on what goes on in each chapter, there is more on the way. More, interesting, yummy stuff. Hopefully funny too because this chapter failed to make me laugh. True story.
