This is our lives chapter 7

The faint haze that Yuffie had been in since the three brothers had knocked her out was starting to disappear. Her eyes flickered a few times before they opened completely. Her vision was a bit blurry but after about three minutes of blinking, the blurriness went away and the first thing that she saw was the lifeless body of her daughter. "Rubi," she said as she quickly tried to get up but discovered she was bound and chained to the wall, "Let me out." She was angry, pissed and not in a very good mood.

"Heh they told me you were a feisty one but I didn't know that you were this feisty," the cold cruel voice of a person Yuffie had hoped was dead forever. Her eyes widened as he snapped his black-glove clad fingers and Rubi was carried out of the room by a lackey.

"Sephiroth," she said as she tried to scoot away, until she met with the wall that was behind her. His hand came to her chin and she spat at him. She hit him dead on however that only made him look like he was about to kill something. "Get away from me!" she screamed at him as she struggled against his hand on her chin.

"No….I will not let a feisty piece of fun escape from me this time," he said as he smirked. The last time he had been careless, Aeris was taken by Cloud and then to get his revenge on Cloud he killed Aeris. Now his grudge was with Vincent, "My mother was in love with your lover and now to make him pay for making Lucrecia hurt…. I'm going to be making you into a Mako freak.

Yuffies eyes widened as she blacked out for a second time and she didn't feel the chain coming loose, her being picked up and them leaving the room. They were heading for the lab.

"God damn it," the rough voice of Cid said as he walked into the room where Vincent was lying on the couch. He had his usual cigarette between his lips as he looked over the two time hero as well as him. He sighed as he quickly thanked the family who was taking care of Vincent and grabbed him to help him stand up. "Vinny what the hell did you get yourself into this time huh? Yuffie must be worried sick," he said as Vincent was suddenly completely awake.

"I failed Cid," he said as he looked down as they walked towards the SHERA, "I failed in my duty as a father, a husband and a lover." His hair fell into his eyes as he said this and he looked as if he was about to cry.

"Huh….what are you talkin' about?" Cid asked as he helped Vincent into the ship, "Isn't Yuffie with Rubi in Nibelheim? I thought that she was." He looked at the sad eyes of one of his good friends and knew something was wrong, "What ya do this time….miss a birthday or something?" But he knew it was something worse since Vincent had missed those before and didn't really care.

"Hojo has them," he said as he sat on the couch that had been installed since the last time he was there, "I should've protected her but I couldn't." He was then slapped out of his haze by a womanly hand.

"Idiot….." Shera said as she looked at him, "You did all you could Vincent and we all know that if you hadn't then you wouldn't be here injured because you were protecting the women you love." Shera could be scary when she was angry and this was one of those times. Cid was even scared of her when she got like that.

Vincent looked up at her and a faint trace of hope entered his eyes. He was now motivated beyond anything else and the last time that this happened was when he wanted Lucrecia with all of his heart and he tried to stop her from going with Hojo. He nodded as he then stood up and walked towards Cid. "Cid we need to go to Neo-Midgar," he said as he grinned.

Cid nodded and walked to the cockpit knowing that this adventured would be great.
