Note: I do not own any character described here!

I've been thinking about this story for two months now (since I finished playing Dirge of Cerberus!) \o/ and finely decided to writhe it. Well…yeah...I know it got too long my story…but wanted to write it anyway. Like I said it was all in my mind for two months…so I just wanted to pull it out of my system. :p

About the story…it is a continued story of ffVII first game...the advent children movie and Dirge of Cerberus…so yeah it contains some spoils.

And one more thing…I haven't played yet the of ffVII first game…I only watched the movie and played Dirge of Cerberus…so If I said any absurd thing about the story...please tell me…but remember…my story is not supposed to be a exactly replica of square's stories…so Yeah, I know I did changed a few information…

In this story, I mixed everything…drama, romance, horror, action and a bit of comedy…

There will probably be some grammar mistakes, so don't hate me for it, please, instead be helpful and tell me what is wrong, besides, like I said on my profile, English is not my original language, I just like it and want to practice it! ;)

---Chocolate and Cherry---

---Chapter 13 – The Gasses---

…

So I started searching for something in the desk's drawer that was supposed to be the secretary's. I found a box inside, that called my attention. Something was telling that inside that box was everything I wanted to know. I opened it and found a bunch of files containing a picture and the profile of the people that used to work on that floor. I went through all those files until one of them got my attention… I chill passed through my spine… I felt my heart jumping non stoppable…I had found the picture of my red cherry eyes…

-Vincent…Valentine… -it was his name. My eyes filled with tears… the file had his height and weight, his blood type, his allergies, all the diseases he had, his charge at Shinra, his parent's name, even his address, which I recognized, because now there was nothing but an empty field destroyed on that war years ago. I looked at his picture for a long time…wondering what kind of man he actually was…was…no!!! He can not be dead!!! I felt a agonizing pain invade my heart…and I just couldn't stop looking at his picture…

Suddenly I hear a strange noise coming from inside the dark hallway behind the desk. I took a look and saw some really big shadow passing through…but it was so fast that I preferred keeping search for more information. Maybe it was just my imagination.

So I folded that file immediately and put it on my pocket, and kept searching for something else. And then I found another file… with my picture on it. But before I could read the name, I heard the sound of something big… metallic falling down. "ok, so there is someone in here!" I quickly put that file inside my other pocket and went in direction of the sound.

That hall was full of doors, some were broken. That vertigo I used to feel because those walls painted with blood were gone…now there was only the cold pain in my stomach warning me that I was about to face something dangerous. I passed through dozen doors, and I couldn't see anything. Until I heard clearly something moving inside the next door ahead. The room number 35.2658. That number… looked familiar..

I took a long deep breath, before giving my next step.

So slowly I entered the room.

There it was. That thing…that monstrous thing…it had two times my height…and it had the smell of a corpse. I realized his skin was different…it was all sewed and it had blood all over his body…it's muscles were all swollen but I could clearly see that his spine was about to come out of that disgusting skin.

Slowly that monster turned around to face me.

I got so scared that I couldn't move.

That thing was wearing glasses. Strangely, I recognized those glasses, and I noticed that he recognized me too. But it was looking at me terrified. Until I figured…that thing… used to be a human being.

When he gave the first step up, I ran like crazy in the elevator's direction. I was running desperately through those doors.

-You!!! He said behind me.

I ran away from him. When I got in front the elevator, I kept pressing the button to open the door. When I got inside, I saw Yuna's body quartered into several little pieces.

-AAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh ! –I scream as loud as I could, that was just too much for one day!!! "What is going on???" This looks like a nightmare…it has to be it!!! But when I turned myself he was already inside. That monster pressed the button to close the door. I thought I would collapse from that scare I was feeling. I knew that was the last day of my life… That was the only thing I was sure about. I would die. And it couldn't be more unfair…just when I finely found something about the man of my dreams and who I really was…and in the same day I lost my two best friends..

The elevator went up.

-You…you…you should be dead!!!-he kept saying that over and over with those giant enraged eyes behind those glasses staring at me. And all I could do was stare him back stoned…about to fall down.

The elevator seamed to take an eternity to stop again. His smell was driving me sick…I felt like I could throw up at any time.

We were on the last and highest floor of the world. It was all crashed…with no walls or ceiling, only dead plants.

Suddenly an image came to my mind, like a flashback… a beautiful place filled by the fresh green grass, and some trees. Smooth wind blowing in my face, and I look at that young guy sleeping like a fallen angel, peacefully resting under a beautiful big tree...I had that dream before… And then I saw that ugly monster's face again, struggling me. I felt a shock on my brain. So I noticed I was getting breathless… I tried to hit him, but it was worthless. Everything was beginning to fade, all that rush was disappearing as I loose my strength… until someone or something shot on his back. The monster throws me out of the elevator. I couldn't see what that was, because it happen too fast. And the only thing I could think of was saving my live. So I tried to run inside the elevator again dragging my injured body, but that monster was already there waiting for me …and with a blink of an eye, he throws me again with his giant foot far away…it was such a strong kick that I didn't even felt it, but I was definitely going to, later. I fell on the edge about to fall down… if he had kicked me with a little more strength, I would have fallen from the highest building…but I realized that I wasn't that lucky. That part of the floor was loosing…and just as quick as that kick was, it fell.

I heard someone screaming a "noooooo"…and it wasn't that monster's voice.

I could hold myself on the window of the next floor down. But I was about to release my hand if no one come to save me in time, so I screamed my throat out hoping that that person could take me away from here.

-Heeeeeeeeeeeeeellllp!!! –my voice barely came out. I did the stupid thing of looking down…I was so high that the others building surrounding this one looked like a bunch of little ants. It made me dizzy.

Suddenly a rain of rocks fell down. They were fighting.

I knew that who ever was there fighting that monster with the glasses, was just as monstrous as he was…there is no way a human being could fight him!

And then a dark figure appeared flying…in a bat wings…"no way!" I though to myself… so it was true that story that girl told me… that thing looked at me and flew back towards the glasses monster.

I was already voiceless to ask for help again. Besides, the one I thought it could be my savior was another monster…I didn't knew each one I should be more afraid of.

My hand slipped.

There I was. About to face death, I closed my eyes to try to visualize one last time that beautiful face…the face of my angel…the man of my dreams…Vincent Valentine.

He smiled at me again, and told me everything would be all right, making me feel safe again. I wondered if I would meet him…but a few seconds later I felt something grabbing me.

I didn't wanted to open my eyes again to face one of those monsters anymore…"enough...let me die in piece" I thought.

It passed minutes while I was waiting for death…and suddenly I noticed that perfume…I knew that perfume…from somewhere….and that arm around my waist…it is warm…not cold as that monsters hands that was trying to struggle me before.

I slowly opened my eyes… a man dressed in a red weird suit was holding me. He had half of his face covered by his suit's collar, and his forehead was covered with a red head scarf thing.

Some how I felt I could trust him. I embraced him soon as I realized we were flying high on a flying motorcycle. He kept holding me with his warm right arm.

Things started to fade dark again.
