Ties to an Unknown World

Chapter 8: The Problem with Harboring Genes Part 2

(Rina's POV)

I Was hiding under the bed when the door opened, revealing polished, pointed gold armored boots. I knew it was Vincent, but why I was hiding was a different story. I'm easily startled.

~ Well, aren't we jumpy today.~ Harmony's smart remark rang in my head. Does she ever shut up?

` Shut your freakin' pie whole! ` I thought for a minute. ` Or if you prefer cake, shut your freakin' cake whole! `

Harmony sighed at my persistence, knowing she would never win this fight. I crawled backwards, getting out from under the bed only to hear a soft chuckle from behind me.

You're certainly the energetic one aren't you? I growled slightly as he started to snicker, my right eyebrow started to twitch with annoyance

What the hell is with you and Harmony making obvious comments!

(normal POV)

Rina was fuming with pointlessness and cursing at everything she ran into along the way. Vincent sighed heavily.

Chaos was laughing historically to the point of where if you could see him, he was rolling of the floor in a fetal position. Apparently he found this amusing

~I hope this lasts forever! This is priceless~

`Yeah... Hilarious.. `

Vincent put a hand on her shoulder, calming Rina down enough to tell her to stop before the authority shows up on Tifa's Doorstep. It worked and she turned around, accidentally closing the gap between Vincent and herself in a small and uber-short kiss. Rina turned away with a deep blush covering most of her face while Vincent hid himself behind the collar of his cloak, his eyebrow twitching slightly with his eyes closed. Vincent cleared his throat.

L- let's pretend that didn't... Happen...

Agreed...

(Later that evening in Vincent's mind ((Vincent's POV)))

~Face it Vincent, you liked it.~

Chaos had been arranging me constantly about the accident earlier that day, causing me to growl unexpectedly in the real world and making everyone look at me crazily.

`I can see why Rina's having a hard time with Harmony. Ever since you learned she harbored that gene, you've been acting very weird.`

~And you haven't?~

`... Good point...`

~I mean this as an older brother act. You should get together with her.~ He swung his clawed arm around my shoulders. ~I mean, she would be good for you. You need a social life~

I looked at him quizzically `Since when did you care? And why do I get the feeling that you're trying to mentally rape me?`

~Since a few days ago... And maybe because I feel left out and want some love... maybe~

I stood there, staring at him. `You want to be with Harmony don't you?`

At this point, Chaos broke down and sat in a fetal position with a cloud of gloom over his head.

~It's not fair. I'm not human! I can't have feelings for them and I never will. Just because we meet another gene harbored doesn't mean you can cast me away like a lost puppy and say I don't stand a chance with another one.~

I sighed at his statement. True, I was leaving him out on his fun and a chance to finally have a social life with another gene. `Fine...`

Chaos looked at me hopefully. `I'll talk to Rina about you and Harmony getting together for a certain amount of ti-`

Chaos pounced. ~Thank you, Vincent! I'll pay you back in any way possible! I love you!~

O_o 'gay rape' was running through my head

OKAY! That chapter was a little short but I've been having problems with one of my cats and I've been having computer problems.

Vincent: * Starts to flail my arms and squirms * Get off me! HELP! RAPE!

Chaos: * Lets go * Sorry...

LOL

Rina: * laughs uncontrollably *

I know this was the chapter Vincent and Rina was supposed to get together, but it just doesn't fit with the chapter name. Next chapter is when Chaos and Harmony launch their plot. REVIEW OR DIE!
