...Um, I'm sorry? I had a lot of things on my plate and it just gets worse from here with my first year of college. So this chapter's a little shorter than normal, but there are two omakes at the end. I hope you enjoy and please leave comments at the end.

Later that night, after they all had fallen asleep, Reno was still up and starring at the fireplace in the Common Room. He looked down at his hand and clenched it. He hadn't told the others about a crucial detail in his story. A detail that scared him. He squeezed his eyes shut and forced himself to remember it.

As the red head stumbled he knocked into a table with a folder on it. Shaking his head to clear some of the mist he opened it and grew steadily more frightened.

Day 1: I was able to acquire the Turk's blood sample. It seems that Hojo has hidden much in the way of this particular Turk. His blood and skin samples are simply beautiful. They react with Jenova cells perfectly.

Day 5: I'm excited, I can't wait to get my hands on this man. Oh, the experiments I can perform with him. Soon I'll have him and my precious experiment will begin.

Day 15: I HAVE HIM! HAHAHA! I have captured the Turk known as Reno. Soon I will create a being even more powerful than Hollander's pitiful SOLDIERS or even Sephiroth! None will be able to contest the power of what I will make.

Day 17: They continue to search for my experiment, but they will never find him. He is adapting to the cells beautifully. I can only imagine what will come of this.

Day 21: They have found us, but they are too late, my experiment is complete. The Turk Reno has adapted perfectly to what I have done and soon I will rule Midgar with him as my weapon!

The file was suddenly crushed in Reno's hand as he shook in both anger and fear. 'What did he do? How will I be able to trust myself with this? What if he forces me to hurt the others?' He shook his head and narrowed his now brighter eyes, he didn't need to think like that. The others would be able to handle anything and he was far too stubborn to be controlled by a scientist like this rogue.

He looked up into the ceiling and nodded, 'Whatever happens, I will protect my friends with my life.'

"Hey, you ok Reno?" The redhead jerked and looked over into the eyes of Zack. The SOLDIER looked concerned for the redheaded Turk.

Reno looked at the puppy and smirked, "I'm fine, memories decided to invade my mind and terrorize me with themselves." He stated before standing. And moving over to the ex-SOLDIER.

Zack stood as well and held out a hand, "It's great to see you again Reno. Last talk we had was the one on the roof. Remember that?"

Reno chuckled and grabbed the offered hand, "Yeah, and it seems you were right about being reborn." The met gazes again and Zack spun Reno so that he could loop an arm around his shoulders.

"But hey the Dynamic Prank Duo is back and ready for action." Zack stated, throwing up his other arm. Reno laughed with the hyper man.

"We are totally back in action, yo! But what about Cloud?" Reno asked.

"What about me?" A voice asked from behind the two. They both yelped in shock and turned to see the blonde crossing his arms and smirking at them.

"Don't do that!" Both the ex-Turk and ex-SOLDIER exclaimed before looking at each other and grinning. Zack looked at his blonde brother and grinned, "Can we count you in on this? I mean, us twins need to keep our reputation going right?"

Cloud smirked at the two and tossed Zack a prank candy, "I continued to help you make these even after remembering myself, correct? What makes you think I'll stop now?" Zack and Reno grinned before drawing Cloud into a circle as they planned a prank.

What they were not aware of, were the pair of bright blue eyes watching them from the boys dormitory. The owner of the eyes smiled and turned to go back into his room, a white feather being the only thing left behind.

"I'm sooooo boooored!" Reno said at lunch the next day. He was splayed halfway across the table with a pout on his face. He turned towards Rude and opened his mouth to say something.

"No." Was the answer he got before he was even able to say anything.

"You're no fun, yo." The red head said, pout deepening, then he shot up with an almost evil smirk before rushing from the room.

The quiet ex-Turk watched after him and sighed, "This ought to be good." He stated in monotone to Cissnei.

The younger ex-Turk smiled and nodded, "Yeah, I was wondering when he would be bored enough to pull out his prank book."

Rude's eyes widened behind his shades as he looked at Cissnei, "You mean he had a prank book even as Harry?" He asked, fearing what that combination would hatch.

"Yep, seems Sirius has been sending him advice on some of his plans as well." Cissnei stated, seeming to enjoy making Rude groan.

"Great." Then he went back to being silent.

At another table a pair of glowing bluish green eyes watched in slight amusement at the Turk interaction before going back to reading his book. On the cover was one word that stated 'LOVELESS'.

After chaos reigned, and by chaos I mean fireworks, color explosions, water balloons filled with paint and more, Reno left the others and took his egg to the prefect's bathroom that he had asked Cedric for the password, after exchanging information about egg.

He stripped and set the egg on the side before dunking himself into the water. The prefect bath was one of the best him had ever seen, in either life. He looked at the egg before sighing and putting it underwater and opening it.

Come seek us where our voices sound,

We cannot sing above the ground,

And while you're searching ponder this;

We've taken what you'll sorely miss,

An hour long you have to look,

And to recover what we took,

But past an hour, the prospect's black,

Too late, it's gone, it won't come back

When the song was over he surfaced and frowned, "Something that I'll sorely miss…." He muttered, mind flashing to the group that he had just been reunited with. "But which one would it be?" He frowned and rubbed his eyes in annoyance.

He quickly finished up in the bathroom and started to walk back to his dorm, never noticing the bright cat-like green following him.

(OMAKE 1!)

Harry J Potter's Prank Book

Reno Sinclair's Prank Book

Page 81

(An Explosive Result)

The red head would later deny that he was ever giggling manically as he hurried down the hall to find Zack and Cloud. Because he was a manly guy, not a giggly one.

Spotting the brothers he pounced on them, one hand holding his 'black book of pranks' and the other holding a bag of balloons.

"Reno? What's u- ohhh. You have your prank book out… which page is it?" Zack asked, snapping the book out of the exited red head's hand.

"81. And I need your help with this one. It requires multiple targets and quickly." He stated as the two read over the page with increasingly disturbing grins.

"You're on. Let's do this." Cloud stated, standing up and ruffling through his bag and pulling out a handful of fireworks. "These are the ones Zack and I made as the twins. The couple we've made after have slightly too much gunpowder to use in close proximities."

Zack nodded, slightly wincing at a memory of one of said fireworks.

"Great." Reno said, pulling out a bag full of different colored circular objects. "These are what I like to call color bombs. They instantly burst on impact and smother everything in a six foot radius in what color they are. Sirius and I designed them."

Zack and Cloud stared at the small objects in excitement. Zack grinned, "And now all we need to do is fill the balloons." The three pranksters nodded and went to work.

Around half an hour later the three were watching from the rafters as the unsuspecting students passed underneath them. They flashed each other equally feral grins before choosing their weapons. Zack grabbed the color bombs, while Cloud grabbed the fireworks and Reno grabbed the balloons.

"HEAD'S UP!" They yelled out before attacking. The students looked up and screamed as they were pelted with color. A frenzy of fireworks were set off as the three pranksters moved down the hall, pelting unsuspected students with an array of colors.

Reno spotted Snape and grinned widely, tossing a red balloon up and down in his hand. He cocked his arm back and threw the balloon at the dungeon bat, watching in satisfaction as Snape turned red as the dye sunk into everything.

"POTTER! 100 POINTS FROM GRYFFINDOR!" He yelled, catching sight of the red head in the rafters.

"Whatever dungeon bat!" He yelled back as he and the other two fled from the now enraged Potions Professor.

They raced through the hallways laughing.

(OMAKE 2)

The summer had been strange for the Weasley family. The twins and Ginny had been acting strangely, and had been more increasingly since the beginning of summer. George had quieted down some, seeming to actually think his action over instead of jumping head first into whatever he and Fred were doing. Fred on the other hand started acting even more hyper than the twins were originally, constantly jumping around as if he had way too much energy. Ginny was more sarcastic and practically threw out all her 'girly' things and replaced them with more practical items.

Their features also changed. Fred's hair grew slightly and spiked up, while strands started turning black. George's hair spiked up immediately and started turning blonde. Ginny's hair darkened slightly and became wavy.

The others in the family were confused but the three affected were learning increasingly who exactly they really were.

Then on afternoon when they were home alone George and Fred were downstairs and Ginny in her room. Fred blinked in shock as he gazed at George.

"CLOUD!" He yelled, tackling the red head turning blonde.

Said blonde dodged the tackle and gazed in shock at Fred, "Zack?" He whispered before they both hugged in happiness. The two whose short friendship was cut apart were reunited at last.

"Well, not that I don't find your reunion exciting, but will the both of you please shut up? That means both of you, Cloud, Zack." Ginny said from the staircase.

The two looked up and Zack's eyes widened, "Cissnei?!" The red head just smirked.
