A/N: Hello my readers. I know that this chapter is short but I will add another one later. I had fun writing this, and I hope you enjoy reading this. I want to dedicate this chapter to SheWolfMedjai who has commented and I appreciate her support.

Disclaimer: I don't own Crisis Core I own Kaci Shinra and the plot line.


Kaci's eyes scanned the sight of Modeoheim. It looked that it had sustained some damage, not too much. But at the reactor beyond, a battle could be heard. Kaci followed her friends silently. The cadets lined up as Angeal addressed them, "I want to have you split up in teams, hopefully you commander already has. At those words the cadets split up into three teams.

Angeal nodded, "Good, one of you will go with myself, one with Sephiroth, and the last with Kaci and Genesis." Genesis scowled, not only didn't he not want to lead cadets he didn't want to work the blonde.

"Sir, ma'am, what are your orders?" a cadet asked. Genesis explained that they were to attack from the east and make their way up the reactor clearing the building.

"Sir, yes sir," the cadets saluted. Kaci and Genesis walked side by side, weapons drawn. Kaci didn't have anything against Genesis; she just didn't want to work with him.

As the mission continued, the troops came into view. Finally, Kaci and Genesis arrived at just about the entrance to the reactor. Genesis and Kaci were battling against a Wutai. Kaci's eyes flickered over to a cadet. He appeared to be struggling against a Wutai soldier. Kaci pulled back from Genesis to help the cadet, but was stopped. "Kaci, stay here! Hold him off so I can go to the reactor!" Kaci drew back more.

"But-!"

"No, Stay!" Kaci spun around and quickly attacked the Wutai troop attacking the cadet. Dodging his blade, she swung her sword and plunged it into his heart.

"Thank you ma'am," the cadet said before following Kaci to where Genesis stood over the dead Wutai he had just killed. Genesis cast an angry glare at Kaci. Kaci ignored and followed Genesis up.

Genesis was just so arrogant, and selfish. She sighed. The rest of the mission, thick tension rested between these two. On the way back even Angeal and Sephiroth could sense it, although Genesis was asleep.

Back at headquarters, the four stood in front of Lazard. "The four of you have done a wonderful job. Kaci you deserve something. And you may get it," Lazard smiled.

"Sir?" Kaci was confused.

"First, Kaci. Because of this you may make first," Kaci smiled. The thought of First was enough to make her forget about Captain Rhapsodos. As Kaci left, she was thinking about the opportunity. But the feeling did not stay long as she remembered the incident.

Kaci sighed and fell back on the couch, "What's got you down, Kaci?" Angeal asked.

Kaci couldn't answer, because a very angry Genesis came in. "Kaci!" Kaci shot up and stood in front of him. "How dare you disobey my direct order! What do you have to say for yourself?"

"If I had obeyed the order that cadet would be dead, Captain!" Genesis opened his mouth to respond, "I'm not done yet! You just had to be the hero didn't you? Just had to get to the reactor and get to troops inside right?! Well because of your arrogance and selfishness that cadet would've been dead! And Genesis quite frankly, the life of a cadet, is much more important than you arrogance!"

"The life of a cadet isn't as important as valuable Shinra information, Kaci! You of all people should know that, Miss Shinra!"

"You had no thoughts on that info, Captain Rhapsodos!" Kaci stormed out of the break room and returned to her own room.
