Zack woke up sprawled out on the sofa. He was shirtless and Cloud was curled up sleeping on his bare chest. The front door bell was ringing furiously and Zack could make out Reno shouting outside. The SOLDIER slid his baby chocobo off his chest and into a nest of pillows. Cloud whimpered softly at the loss of Zacks warm torso but quickly snuggled into the pillows and continued making cute little noises as he slept. Zack walked to the door and yanked it open, annoyed that he had just been rudely awoken by a noisy door.

"Zack. We may have found a cure to Clouds age issue" Vincent reported.

"Yeah yo. And we got us some exciting news as well" Reno blurted excitedly and tightened his grip on Vincents hand.

"Cool. Do I get to hear your exciting news now?" Zack asked, knowing what the news was already.

"We are going out" Reno and Vincent said together, smiling.

"That's great!" Zack pulled his friends into a group glomp, "Congrats!"

In a fit of anti-socialness Vincent pushed Zack away and ran inside the small apartment to hide from the puppy. Zack and Reno just laughed and followed the vampire.

Vincent picked up the sleeping lump of Cloud. The baby chocobo opened his eyes sleepily and screamed at Vincent looming over him.

"ZZZAAAACCCKKKIIEEE HHEEELLPPP" Cloud screamed and Zack rushed over and cradled his terrified Cloud.

"Its okay Cloud its just Vinny" The puppy said soothingly, running his fingers through Clouds hair.

"Sorry to scare you Cloud. Reno and I believe we have found a cure for your...babyness"

"W...Weally?" Cloud looked up from his current position, buried into Zacks hair, and looked at Vincent, his eyes shining with hope.

"Yes. But it has not been tested yet. We found it at Lucritsias cave. Its a materia she gave to me when I prayed to her to help us"

"Yeah yo. That bitch finally came in handy" Reno stepped forward smirking.

"Use it quick! I neeeed to be a gwown up again!" Cloud slammed his fists into Zacks head.

"Hehe yep, Cloud NEEDS to be normal age as soon as possible" Zack smirked.

"As you wish. Sit Cloud on the floor and step back" Vincent ordered, equipping the silver glowing materia into Cerberus. Zack and Reno did as they were told and watched Vincent. The gunman pointed Cerberus at the infant sat on the floor.

"I hope this works..." Vincent put his finger on the trigger and closed his eyes, "Or it may endanger Clouds life"

Vincent fired Cerberus at Cloud at point blank range. Everyone flinched and closed their eyes as the noise shook the room. Silver sparks flew from the gun and strait to the now terrified blonde. A warm, silvery smoke filled the room making everyone cough.

Zacks eyes grew wide as his sight fell on the spot were Cloud was.

Ooooh cliffhanger XD
