A/N: Well… Here's the first real chapter of the challenge fic! Make sure you review at the end! Anonymous reviews are always accepted and all reviews are appreciated. If you flame… I will laugh… But I'm not going to respond to it! … 'Cept for the laughing…
Also… I'm sorry it's taking me so long to update… No… it's not school… I mean, I am in school, but I never do my work anyway, so that's not holding me back! It's the fact that TECHNICALLY I'm grounded from the internet because I don't do my work at school… But I guess this tells you what I think about the punishment and the reason for being punished!
FEAR THY REVIEWS!

THANKS TO:
Shinigami's Shadow for giving me the idea for this fic thing! I probably should have placed this in the last chapter, but being the baka I am, I forgot! So I'll stick it here: This story is dedicated to Shinigami's Shadow! YAY!
Kitsu for helping me get a better understanding of all the various characters from the various games! So… If the characters are IN character… thank him! And if they are OOC… Blame me!
Schizo for helping me when I needed it (she gave me an idea that made this chapter longer!) and for putting up with having to wait for me to update our other story. READ IT! (under Schizo and Proud… it's DNAngel and has nothing at all to do with this fic or the games/books used in this fic so why am I even typing this?)

Last Time:
Harry's POV:
They say curiosity kills the cat.
Well, that day it saved my life. If it wasn't for Leon finding me, abandoned and left to die in that alleyway... I would have been lost to the clutches of hell.
This Time:
Sora's POV:
"WHAT!" I blink at Leon, and at the soaking bundle of boy in his arms.
"I couldn't think of anywhere else to take him…" Leon shrugs. Shrugs? That butt shrugs as if this is the most common thing in the world… Yes… It sure is common to show up on your friends' doorstep carrying a half naked, bloody, complete stranger! I sigh and shake my head. Sometimes I wonder just how much common sense Leon has… Or the lack thereof. But, nonetheless, I open the door wider and allow them entry. Cloud's not gonna like this…
"Why didn't you take him to the hospital? Or better yet, the police!" I ask him, shutting the door. I look at Leon and he's blinking at me as if I just sprouted another head… But I didn't… I have all the head I need… That sounds so bad.
"I don't know who he is! He could be wanted for murder! And they could tag me as an accomplice." …What an idiot… I lightly hit my forehead with the palm of my hand and rub my temples. 'Could be wanted for murder…' Does he even hear the words that come out of his mouth?
"…If he could be a murderer, then why'd you bring him here!" I say each word crisply, that way there's no way he can't understand MY logic… Even if I don't know which gutter he grabbed his own out of that morning. Leon looks down almost sheepishly. That's not like him at all.
"I don't think he's a murderer… He was just… It was like… How…" I glare at him. I hate these stuttering sentences, but he's more articulate than this. What's his problem?
"Spit it out man!" I cross my arms and tap my foot impatiently. He looks at me once, and then diverts his eyes to the left… As if that plant in the corner was the most fascinating thing in the world. I know for a fact it's not. No matter how much you look at it… It doesn't move… At all… It's actually quite a boring plant.
"It was like how I found you those years back…" He says quietly, I have to strain my ears to hear him… but I heard him. My eyes widen, then narrow with pity and sadness, but most of all… Remorse.
"Ok… Take him to the guest room…"
"I'm sor—" I give him a hard look and a short, almost angry sigh.
"Don't be sorry; just take him to the room… Up the stairs, down the main hallway… Third door on your left… Pick a bed I don't care. I'll get some stuff to clean his wounds." I turn and leave the room, leaving a gaping Leon in my wake. A single tear rolls down my cheek as I'm flooded with memories I would have rather long since forgotten…
Leon's POV:
Crap… Crap, crap, double-crap…
I sigh deeply and turn, walking up the stairs and scold myself for being such an idiot. I'm so sorry Sora… I know you were trying to forget that horrible day 2 years ago… I'm sorry… Before I know it I'm in the guest room (…or, at least, A room…) and I set the boy in my arms down on the bed to my right. …Don't think I didn't see that tear Sora…
Great… Now Cloud's going to kick my ass… and so is Riku… And Aeris… and Sephiroth because Riku will sick him on me… And Vincent… Shit… Kairi might even be out for my blood after this… Irvine, Seifer, Rinoa, Wakka, Tidus, that one insane girl too… Yuffie I think? My eyes widen. Holy crap I'm going to die. I guess I'm back to my original thought.
Crap… Crap, crap, double-crap…
I look back down at the boy I picked up. I can't help but feel sorry for him. With a sigh I pull a chair from the side wall and place it by his bed. Why do I always find them? I reach my hand to his face, brushing away his bangs. He actually is quite… Beautiful.
My eyes flicker across his face, but I give him enough privacy not to look over his mangled body… Until I absolutely have to. But I can't seem to find a thing, physically, about this boy that I don't like. His jet, raven-black hair frames his almost pale complexion nicely. His mouth (As bruised and cut up it is at the moment) shows the traces of lips that should always be turned up into a smile. I want to see him smile. His features are slightly feminine, but he cannot be mistaken for as a girl… Without the proper attire that is.
I find my eyes trying to drift downward on the boy but I mentally scold, and physically smack myself. No! Absolutely not! The boy's hurt and just needs help… Help… Like Sora…
I lean back in my chair with a small sigh as I reminisce about the past, but before I get too far, the door from the bathroom flies open and I meet up with a very wet… Very naked… and now… Very angry… Cloud.
Crap.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM!" I mentally wince and cringe at the loudness of his voice. That's bound to bring Sora up here.
Crap.
"I'M GOING TO KICK YOUR ASS LEONHEART!" I lazily watch him grab a towel and wrap it around himself. I KNOW Sora heard that one. I'm going to die today… I just know it.
Crap.
"…WHO THE HELL IS THAT ON MY BED?" I spare a glance at the boy who has now woken up, and then to the door of the room in which Sora's standing in.
Double-crap.
"IS HE BLEEDING! ON MY FAVORITE SHEETS!" I glance back at the young boy whose eyes are wide with fear and is trying to sink into the headboard. I open my mouth to shut Cloud up, but one look from Sora and that thought just doesn't exist anymore.
"Calm down Cloud…" I glare silently at Cloud while Sora calms him and I move forward to try and calm the frightened boy.
"Hey there buddy…" Am I talking to him like he's a little kid? He looks at me, and continues to keep his distance.
"I'm not gonna hurt chya… I promise…" I am talking to him like a little kid… Lemme fix that…
"I found you in an alleyway… and I couldn't just leave ya there…" The boy eyes me warily.
"W-Who are you?" FINALLY! HE SPEAKS! … And I was just about to think he was a mute…
"I—"
"He's Leon… and I'm Sora…" much? I was talking… Bastard… I half-heartedly glare at Sora before relinquishing my chair and letting Sora calm the boy down. After all… Sora's been through this before… I can only do more harm than actual helping.
"…You couldn't find the guest room… could you?" DIE! MUST… KILL! I HATE YOU CLOUD! I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU A PIECE OF MY MIND AND WRATH!
"…Nope… Wasn't really paying attention…" …Oh yes… Doesn't that sound wrathful… I'll bet Sora's pink rabbit slippers have just gone and hid under the bed… They better watch out for that puppy painting I scared under there yesterday… I am such a moron…
"But you had to choose MY room! WHY MINE!"
"CLOUD! SHUT UP! You're being inconsiderate and stupid!" …Oh yeah… I WISH I could take credit for that… But no… that was Sora… I sigh again. Today's a long ass day.
"DON'T TELL ME TO SHUT UP SORA!" I lean against the wall, amusedly watching their little fight. Ah… The beauty of sibling rivalry…
"I CAN DO WHAT I WANT! YOU'RE BEING EXTREMELY RUDE!" Yep… extremely rude… Cloud was always rude.
"AND YOU'RE BEING CHILDISH!" I perk up slightly. Ooo… Sora's not going to like that one.
"I AM NOT A CHIL—" No… Sora's statement didn't stop there. He was interrupted. Again you're wrong. It wasn't by Cloud… or even me. Try the person we've all been scaring to all hells. …No not the rabbit slippers morons…
"Ow…"
A/N: YES! Done with this chapter… and I AM evil enough to stop it right there! Bwhahahahaha! Guess you'll have to review and read the next chapter once I post it! Hey… give all my other stories a shot if your bored enough… I'm evil in them all I promise! (Avoid the Hidden Sin... it sucks mercat testicles…)
