Chapter Two
"Whoa, whoa, what the HELL?
This was Cloud's second rude awakening in less than twenty-four hours, but this was under completely different circumstances.
"Why are they always attracted to me? Is it my hair?" He mumbled, looking up at the chocobo that was poking its head through the car window. He had been awakened by a loud chirp by the giant bird, but no one else seemed to have heard it. Of course, he thought, Denzel and Tifa could both probably sleep through a war. And Marlene was exausted yesterday after all the driving. He didn't know about Reno or Yuffie, who was snoring in the backseat.
He looked at the chocobo sternly and said something along the lines of "Go away, you lousy excuse for a bird" but with a lot more cursing, which earned him a peck on the head. And not the good kind of peck, like a kiss-on-the-cheek-peck (which probably wouldn't be expected from a chocobo anyway) but a really hard jab with it's beak.
"DAMNIT!" He yelled, rubbing his head and glaring at the chocobo menacingly. This, of course, woke everyone up, even Tifa.
"Cloud?" Tifa yawned, "It's two in the freaking morning. What gives?"
He pointed to the chocobo. "Big Bird over here is trying to drill holes in my skull."
Tifa sighed. "Why did you leave the window open, Cloud?"
"It gets freaking hot in here! It's the middle of summer, for gods sake!" Cloud defended himself while the chocobo stared at Reno with it's beady eyes.
"Um, guys," said Reno worriedly, "I think that bird is eye-raping me."
Yuffie rolled her eyes. "Don't flatter yourself."
"Look at it!" Reno insisted, "If that's not a pedo face I don't know what is!"
While Reno and Yuffie argued as they always did when they were in the same room, Denzel and Marlene, who had remained silent through this entire episode, decided to play Go Fish with the deck of cards Denzel had in his jacket pocket. Meanwhile, Cloud and Tifa deliberated over what to do with the chocobo.
"It won't go away..." Cloud said impatiently while trying in vain to push the chocobo's head out the window.
"Maybe if we start the engine," Tifa suggested. Cloud obliged, starting the engine, which made a rather loud noise.
The chocobo started and backed away a few feet. "Oh my... I hope we didn't scare it too much!" While Tifa worried about the bird, Cloud quickly rolled up the window so the chocobo wouldn't come back.
"Reno, Yuffie, stop bickering like a married couple," Tifa started, causing Reno and Yuffie to blush, "And put those cards away, kids. We have to get more sleep before we can drive."
A/N AND SHE ENDS IT WITH THEM SLEEPING AGAIN! I know, I know, you probably hate me right now. Action in the next chap though, I promise! Lots of love, OneWingedHoneybee.
