Hot Shot's girl: I am soooo sorry I couldn't update to you guys in FOREVER! Really my documents were messing up and I was just so frustrated :( Well here it is so hope you guys enjoy :D
Angeal was right. Training was a lot longer than normal the next day. Zack couldn't take a break until it was near the end of the day and when she did she could barely walk to the showers, much less undress and take one. She couldn't believe Angeal would train her so hard and for so long just because she missed a couple of hours . . . if she remembered correctly Angeal missed just as many along with her.
This seemed to amuse Angeal—seeing her like this. All worn out and ready to drop dead. Zack swore she'd get him back, but at the moment her mind was too tired to think of any way. She'd let him go—for now.
That evening Zack went out to diner with the guys, but plum fell asleep on her dish. Angeal, Sephiroth, and Genesis just starred at the poor worn-out girl.
"Sheesh Angeal, what'd you do to him?" asked Sephiroth turning to the man he sat next to.
"Just caught up on some missed hours," said Angeal not seeing what was so wrong.
"Just how many?" asked Sephiroth looking back at the girl who seemed dead to the world at the moment.
"Hhh, enough," sighed Angeal with a shake of his head. "Look I don't see you training anyone so don't tell me how to teach my student."
"I wasn't," said Sephiroth with a curl at the end of his lips. "There's nothing wrong with being concerned. After all he is a she you know."
"Ah women," said Genesis raising his poetic voice. "The more delicate of the race. In their hands holds the fruits of love and kindness not worthy of any, but their words . . . can be one to reckon with. That, my friend, you don't have to read about."
"I'm not afraid of her Genesis," said Angeal glaring at him and leaning towards him a bit.
"Her?" asked Genesis. "Since when do you refer to Zack as a she?"
"Uh," said Angeal backing his head up a bit.
What could he say to that? Especially when his two best friend starred at him like so. Both waiting for answers when Angeal, himself, wasn't sure of it.
"It's alright Angeal," said Sephiroth placing a hand on his shoulder. "Zack's been a woman for nearly four months, it starts to grow on you. I've even called her she before."
"It happens even to the most wise," said Genesis. "Look at Hojo—he calls her she all the time."
"That man is NOT wise," said Angeal with a frown.
"True," said Genesis with a nod.
"It's just . . . you have to wonder how everything came to this," said Sephiroth looking at Angeal and Genesis.
Angeal cast his eyes down as Genesis leaned back in his seat and said—
"Well I can think of a way . . . Zack got drunk and manipulated by Hojo."
"Still—I should have made sure he was well taken care of," said Angeal. "That way he wouldn't have met Hojo as he walked through the halls."
"You can't blame yourself Angeal," said Sephiroth glancing at him.
"He's my pupil," said Angeal. "My responsibility."
At that all were silent. Their attention were turned away from them as they heard Zack inhale sharply like she had just snorted. Sephiroth gave off a chuckle before Angeal sighed and said—
"Well I better get her home. No knowing what would happen if he we leave her here alone."
"True," said Genesis getting up. "Well I will see you gentlemen later. Farewell, until next we meet."
Genesis left and as Sephiroth came up to Angeal who had just taken Zack in his arms asked—
"Need any help?"
"No, I got him," said Angeal holding her close.
"Very well," said Sephiroth shaking his head. "Take care."
"You too Sephiroth," said Angeal taking Zack back home.
Angeal took Zack back to her apartment and once there he placed her on her bed and covered her up nicely. He smiled slightly seeing her smile and turn in her bed to get in a more comfortable position. She let a sigh as Angeal turned to leave.
He stopped though remembering this was just like the night before Zack was turned into a woman. Should he really leave her now and let something perhaps happen to her again? Angeal turned to watch Zack turn in her sleep again. He sighed and so made his way to the couch; there he plopped for the night just to make sure to watch over her.
Angeal woke up not too long afterwards. It was time to go train when no one was around. He took up his sword and left Zack's apartment knowing she'd be all right this late at night. Once at the training room he practiced with his sword for about an hour until he heard the door slid open and once he turned to see who intruded his training his eyes met a smiling Zack.
"Care if I join?" she asked with a smile as she took her sword out in her hand.
Angeal just smiled and said—
"Haven't you had enough already?"
"Hm, that's what you think," she said with a smirk as she placed hr sword on her shoulder and walked up to Angeal. "I'm ready if you're ready."
"Very well," said Angeal readying himself for sparring. "Then defend yourself!"
At that he charged her and they clashed. Hojo was right about Zack . . . she did bring something new to SOLDIER. Sure she couldn't do many of the moves she used to be able to, but she could do new ones no man could do. She was very flexible and lighter on her feet than most.
Angeal saw these a few weeks after she began to get used to being a woman and so worked more on these traits and built up on it to make her better in that area. It had worked and now Zack felt more confident about herself in fighting. She knew now that she was different, but no longer in a bad way as of being too weak. Angeal liked seeing her confident—that meant he was training her well.
"Hm, I'm glad to see you've grown accustomed to your new body," said Angeal as they circled each other.
"You have no idea," she said with a slight giggle. "It's like I was never a guy at all."
At that she charged at him again and clashed. Sometimes they didn't even fight with weapons. They used hand combat, but Zack knew at that she was out-muscled so had to be careful not to get caught in Angeal's strong grip. Both never gave up and so both became extremely exhausted.
When they finally decided to leave it at a tie both were heavy at breath and sweating all over. Zack fell to her knees and said—
"So . . . you do this . . . every night?"
"When I can," said Angeal inhaling and exhaling greatly to try and catch his breath.
"Huh," she said licking her lips and bowing her head. "Oh I'm so exhausted . . . and sweaty."
"Why don't you go take a shower?" asked Angeal taking up his sword again.
"They're open this late at night?" she asked with a tilt of her head.
"It's called turn them on yourself Zack," said Angeal.
"Oh . . . right," she said casting her head down. "But is the women showers on?"
"I don't know—are they?" asked Angeal raising his brow lightly.
"Well," she said placing her index finger on her lips and swaying her shoulders. "'Technically' I am a man so I won't have to worry about which shower is on right?"
"I guess," said Angeal shaking his head a bit.
"Good," she said with a smile as she took hold of Angeal's arm. "Let's go get 'cleaned' up shall we?"
And so Zack joined Angeal in the men's shower. She was glad no one was around because she always wanted to 'do it' in a shower, whether public or not. As the warm water poured down Zack smiled as she took a bar of soap in her hand and turned to Angeal saying—
"So . . . where do you want me to wash?"
Angeal gave out a small snicker as he came close to her saying—
"Everywhere."
At that he took Zack in his arms and smothered her with kissed. Zack dropped the soap not really caring about getting clean now. She wrapped her arms around Angeal's neck and legs around his waist so Angeal had easy entrance to her.
With a single thrust Angeal was completely inside her. Zack let out a moan in Angeal's mouth but after that she just focused on moving her hips in rhythm with his. Angeal placed his hands on Zack's hips and pulled her as close as she could get in that moment of intimacy.
The two were in the showers for quite some time until both climaxed and wore each other out. They were both so tired from that that they couldn't even wash themselves. Zack just decided that they head back to her apartment and wash up there as well, but it wasn't long before the two were on top of each other again.
Their wet bodies soaked the sheets to Zack's bed but neither cared. This was one of the best parts about being a girl—so Zack thought. The way women—'did it' never felt more pleasurable. Sure it probably was just the same for men, but Zack had never done it before when she was a man and so she didn't know . . . all she knew right now was the pleasure of women.
Zack was surely worn out that night. She had slept through what hours she had left of the night and through half the next day. Training can where you out, but also making love thrice can as well.
Angeal was so kind as to let her take the next day off. He too was worn out, but not as much as her. He left in the morning before everyone got up and rested for the day at his place. Sometimes he wondered if he should be treating her so kindly just because she was his lover? . . . No matter, she was still his student.
As Angeal spent the day to himself in his apartment he just thought about so much. Like one, for instance, was when Zack would turn back into a man. After that—then what? Angeal knew that when Zack would be turned back into a man she'd forget those feminine feelings and feel nothing for him—and stop bugging him about 'certain' matters.
Still though—he wondered what that day would be like. They can't just forget what they had done or what's been done to them. How would Shin-Ra cover this up—especially if they found out about Zack's little 'experiment'. If that ever happened they'd both be in a world of trouble.
Angeal's thoughts mainly rested on what would happen after Zack was turned back into a man. He wondered how different it really would be and . . . if he'd miss her. Casting his eyes down he scanned his thoughts about this. Yes he had developed feelings and attachments to her, but . . . was it dim enough just to let her go when the time came?
This was one of the reasons Angeal didn't want to get so involved with her. He was afraid of attaching himself to her so and when Hojo finally completed the reverse for this madness he wouldn't be able to let her go. This is not what Angeal wanted. He wanted his old student and friend back—Zack, but . . . now being with the woman Zack it was like the old man Zack never existed.
Oh what nightmares Hojo has wrought. All had almost forgotten about Zack who she was before. It's been nearly four months since she was a he and now it seemed like she was always a she. Angeal didn't want his memory like that to just disappear like that—but it was happening whether he liked it or not . . . he just hoped Hojo would hurry before Zack wouldn't want to change back and right her wrong that was done upon her.
"How is everything progressing Hojo?" asked Lazard as he came to see him one day.
"Well," sighed Hojo flapping his arms to his sides. "Another reactor broke. I had succeeded in rebuilding the other, but I need two Director."
"You know—it's strange how these reactors just seem to 'break' whenever I ask how you're progressing," said Lazard crossing his arms.
"Director—I am offended," said Hojo placing a hand on his chest. "I assure you this project is of utmost importance to me—for dear Zack Fair.
"Somehow I don't believe you doctor," said Lazard with a plain face.
"What?" asked Hojo seeming offended.
"You know," said Lazard as he began to pace back and forth scanning his thoughts. "I can't help but think you are hiding something from me."
"Really?" said Hojo crossing his arms.
"Mhm, about Zack too," said Lazard placing his thumb and index finger on his chin. "But I tell you Hojo—if you are I will find out. You can be sure of that."
At that Lazard left Hojo. Hojo just sneered and turned to his 'broken' reactor. Next to it, on a table, he took up a notebook. He opened it and looked over the notes he wrote of Zack.
Hojo smiled and let out a snicker. He slowly blinked and closed the notebook.
"Oh really Lazard?" he said with a smirk. "How can you find out what I'm doing when you're as blind as a bat yourself?!"
