"I want to have a chance to explain"
"Why should I let ya!? I knew I shoulda dumped ya at the hospital!" Reno shouted
"Because that guy was flirting with me, but I wasn't going to go off with him. I fired him" Rufus attempted to explain.
"Whatever." Reno chucked the first aid kit to the injured blonde "Sort yaself out. I want ya outta here by morning"
"Who's kids are they?" Rufus asked uncertainly "They're all orphans, but Sora and Roxas are twins, as are Namine and Kairi"
Rufus simply nodded and Reno left the room. The blonde started tending to the wounds he had and listened to the muffled chatter between Reno and the children. Before long, the door opened and a boy with a blonde mulhawk poked his head around.
"Mr Shinra?" He asked uncertainly.
"Yeah"
The blonde boy came into the room more, dragging another, shorter, lilac-haired boy behind him.
"C-Could you persuade Axel to let you stay? He gets really lonely as he's the only grown up" The boy asked hopefully
"I don't know, he doesn't seem to want to know me" Rufus replied sadly
"He told us about when he used to work for your company and how he was friendly with his boss, but he couldn't stay. I think he'd like it if you stayed, at least a little while" The blonde boy explained.
"That was a long time ago"
"Still"
"I'll try to get him to listen to me, but if not, then I'll have to leave... I've been looking for him ever since he left..." Rufus continued, taking on a defeated tone. The blonde boy would've said more, but there was a shout from down the hall
"DEMYX, ZEXION! DINNER NOW!" Reno hollered and the two young boys ran out, leaving Rufus on his own once more to mull over his thoughts.
