Resurrection 12

“What’s wrong with him?” Tifa asked, watching Zack as he groaned and whimper, clutching his stomach in pain.

Sephiroth held back the grin and sighed sadly instead. “He’s been exposed to a lot of Mako recently, and Cloud told me of how you took care of him while he was so sick...” Sephiroth paused, watching the way Tifa covered Zack with a blanket and bit back the grimace as Tifa cooed at the moaning soldier. “So I thought of you.”

The Buxom fighter turned and eyed the ex-General with caution and raised a finely plucked brow. “If he’s been exposed to Mako, then shouldn’t you take him to a hospital or at least find a cure materia?”

Taking a deep breath to calm himself he somehow managed to keep himself from rolling his eyes and smiled weakly. “Hadn’t thought of that. Only of you and your wonderful abilities to care for people.” Tifa opened her mouth to respond but the sound of the door chime forced her to give one last glance at both men and left the bedroom, heading downstairs towards to the bar.

“I hadn’t realised that you could get Mako poisoning from a trip to the Honey Bee Inn.” Zack said, sarcasm heavy in his voice even as Sephiroth listened in case Tifa come back.

“No, but it’s the only way I could think of getting us both in here to look for Cloud...” The silver haired man said, shrugging his shoulders. “If you have any bright ideas, now is the time to tell them.”

Zack sighed and stared up at the ceiling. “Do you think Kasumi-chan is still around?” Hopefulness and desperation evident in the brunette’s voice as he sat up, rubbing his forehead, trying to think of where Cloud had gone.

“Nope.”

“The Vampire?”

Green eyes narrowed and Sephiroth lay down next to Zack, stretching his long legs. “Probably still in hospital.”

“Reeve?”

Sephiroth chuckled, a crooked grin on his lips. “He’s smart enough NOT to let Cloud stay with him.”

Zack growled and crawled from the bed, pulling on his shirt and jacket. Sephiroth watched with faint interest and blinked, sitting up. “Do you remember when Cloud disappeared for that week in July when it was snowing?”

The brunette froze. How could he? He’d nearly drove himself crazy trying to find Cloud and only to discover that he’d been cooped up with that red haired- “Cock sucker!” Zack hissed, pulling his jacket on and he paused, smiled slowly as he felt his pockets. He turned to Sephiroth and practically cooed. “Now that you mention it, I still have some unfinished business with our dear friend.”

Sephiroth smiled, not a kind smile, more of a ‘cat who got the canary, milk, harem of females (or males in this case) and all the mice he wanted’. “Then we should go pay a visit, hmm?”

~~~

Cloud slowly sipped his hot chocolate, a favourite of his since his childhood and nuzzled into the warm arms the held him. He loved Reno in a way, just like he loved Sephiroth, Zack and Vincent but it was different. With Reno he didn’t have to constantly worry about being molested like when he was with Zack, and he didn’t have to hide himself when he was Sephiroth, which was something that still haunted him from when he was younger. Vincent though, it had been more for companionship and desperation to just feel. The ex-Turk had been in the coffin for decades and when they saw on another, things just clicked between the two. Needing for contact with someone who understood the loss of loved ones. The feelings the two shared had grown but Reno... Reno was different then all the others, Cloud felt safe with him and right now that was all that mattered.

“You’re thinking,” Lips pressed against his temple and Cloud sighed, his blue mako eyes glowing faintly as he smiled slightly.

“Is that bad?” Cloud asked, taking another sip of his drink even as the lips moved downwards, gently biting his earlobe, his toes curling in response.

“Depends on what you’re thinkin’ of,” Reno whispered, softly blowing on the wet spot of Cloud’s ear, grinning as the blonde shivered in response, his own hand slowly working open the jacket that Cloud wore.

With shaky hands, Cloud took one last sip of his hot chocolate and leaned forward, nudging aside some newspapers and placed it on the messy coffee table before him. His breathing hitched as hands fully opened his jacket and pulled him back against the hard body behind him. Licking his lips, Cloud watched as Reno pushed the jacket off of him, revealing him in all his naked glory. A chuckled behind him and Cloud couldn’t hold back the moan as pale fingers danced across his waist, one hand moved down to just lightly rub mere-inches away from his newly formed erection and the other hand moved upwards to gently pinch his nipple. Leaning his head back Cloud let out a purr as his neck was covered in light nips and kisses. He turned his head to the side, meeting blue eyes and mewled as lips pressed against his, their tongues sliding and licking one another.

“Look at you,” Reno murmured, pulling away from the blonde’s kiss. “All spread out and eager. ‘They’ not enough for you anymore?” The question asked as Reno left the spot he’d been rubbing on Cloud’s hip to drag blunt nails against the underside of the blondes cock. A choked cry was his answer and the red headed Turk grinned, covering Cloud’s mouth again as he started to stroke the throbbing erection he held.

Cloud turned his head away from the kiss, squeezing his eyes shut as he panted and tried to spread his legs, tried to get more of the sensation. Reno aided his efforts by spreading his own legs and by Cloud being on his lap, the blonde’s legs were spread wider. It was then that Cloud felt the cock beneath him and he turned his head back to Reno’s, their mouths clashing together even as he ground against the hardness digging into his lower back. A cry not unlike his own came from the red head’s lips and the thrusting began.

They panted, Cloud bucking into the Turks grip and grinding downwards with every stroke. Reno bucked upwards against the sensation, gasping as his grip tightened on Cloud’s cock and his other hand went to hold onto the blonde’s hips, pressing his forehead against the now sweaty shoulder before him.

With one final cry Reno came, his hips bucking against the blonde’s back, squeezing his eyes shut even as he listened to Cloud come not moments later. Together they panted, eyes glazed over and bodies exhaustion. Turning his head, Cloud weakly pressed a kiss against Reno’s forehead for which the red head lifted his head and slowly but surely kissed the blonde back. When they pulled apart, they smiled at one another and leaned into kiss once more when the doorbell rang.

~~~

Vincent glanced upward at the apartment building and walked in. The sound of people screaming at one another, babies crying and things breaking filled the halls as Vincent passed by. He ignored it all and headed for the elevator, just as he was about to press the button, a small voice interrupted him.

“It dun’ work,”

Turning, he stared down at the little girl in front of him. She wore a T-shirt far to big for her and an old chocobo plush toy that looked like it too had seen better days. “The elevator?” He asked, taking notice of the bruises on her arms and he schooled his features from the sudden anger he felt.

“Uh huh,” she said, blinking up at him. Her wide obsidian eyes starring back at him.

“Where are you parents?” Vincent asked, squatting down beside her and using his good hand to brush aside the black curls that hung in front of her face.

“They wen’ shopping,” She said, hugging her plush toy tightly to herself.

“When?”

The little girl frowned and wrinkled her nose, as she looked back at the open doorway before her eyes lit up and she smiled brightly. “When Chocobo Billy came on! But...” she said and if possible hugged her chocobo tighter. “He’s been on a couple times now and Lila isn’t crying anymore...”

“Who’s Lila?” Vincent asked, suddenly feeling sick to his stomach as he watched her pet her plush toy.

“’M baby sister,”

Vincent stared at her for a few moments before he gave her, what he hoped, was a kind smile and lightly tugged on one knotted ponytail. “Lila’s a pretty name, I bet yours is too. Can I ask what it is?”

Giggling, the little girl smiled at him and Vincent saw the fingerprints of bruises on her neck. “It’s Hannah,”

Vincent smiled back. “Hannah’s a pretty name too,”

Hannah ducked her head and the curls that Vincent had pushed away covered her forehead again and she peeked up at him. “Wha’s your name?” She asked, looking back down at the old, black carpet that planet only knew what colour it once was.

“It’s Vincent.” The ex-Turk said smiling but paused as he remembered what she told him. “You said Lila’s stopped crying?”

The smiled on Hannah’s face instantly disappeared and she nodded, looking up at him with pleading eyes. “Yeah, she’s been crying and crying and I gave her the bottles like Poppa John said, but there’s no more bottles and she stopped crying when the sun went down and I don’t know what to do,” Hannah whimpered, staring to cry. “Will you help her?”

Vincent stood and glanced at the elevator. He already knew that Lila was probably dead if not dying and that Cloud wouldn’t need him at the moment. He loved the blonde yes, but he couldn’t currently deal with an ex-Soldier, ex-General and a small worried little girl. Pushing those thoughts aside, he looked back down at Hannah and smiled softly at her. “Yes.”

Happiness instantly filled those wide eyes as she reached towards him with childish innocence and grabbed his clawed hand, leading him towards her doorway.

~~~

Just as the door closed behind Vincent, two figures turned down the hall he once stood and stalked towards the elevator. Zack pushed the down button and Sephiroth waited patiently, his gaze turning towards the door that Vincent and Hannah had entered not moments before. Zack glanced back at the tall man and frowned. “What’s wrong?”

Sephiroth blinked, his green eyes glazing over for a moment before he turned back to Zack. “Just felt something,”

Blue eyes met green and both knew something was up. They could feel something was up and when the elevator didn’t ‘ping’ they turned and walked towards the stairs, heading up towards the apartment they remembered oh so well.

~~

As soon as Vincent steeped inside, he resisted the urge to vomit at the smells that assaulted him. The entire apartment smelled of rot and decay and with Hannah leading him towards the bedroom, he had to pass the living room where he took note of the empty cereal boxes, cans of pop and empty liquor bottles scattered about on the couch and floor. The television had a huge spider-like crack in the middle and holes from where a fist had gone through the wall next to it. She lead him towards a small door that looked more like a broom closet then a normal door and started to turn the knob. Frowning, Vincent looked at the little girl. “Hannah, where’s your sister?”

Finally opening it, Hannah blinked up at Vincent. “In ‘ere.” Hannah opened the door wide and looked up at Vincent eagerly. “Can you ‘elp her?”

‘So that’s the smell...’ Vincent thought distantly as he squatted down next to Hannah and reached out to touch the baby’s neck. Surprisingly, he kept the demons at bay as he saw the bruises on the baby’s arm and glanced over at the girl standing next to him. She was biting her lower lip, worry etched on her face as she hugged her plush toy.

“Mr. Vincent?”

Small and innocent and Vincent pulled his hand away, looking back to Lila as Hannah turned to him. ‘Guilt,’ the ex-Turk thought as stared at the small babe. ‘Is a powerful thing...’ Forcing a small smile on his lips, he reached over and closed the dead baby’s eyes. “She’s just sleeping, Hannah. Why don’t we leave her and let her rest for a while more alright?”

The worry immediately left Hannah’s eyes and she smiled brightly. “’Kay!”

Vincent smiled back and stood, pausing as he reached out and picked up the gun that was on one of the higher shelves before closing the door once more. He turned to the small girl. “Did you’re parents leave any messages or anything?” He asked, pocketing the gun in his jacket.

Hannah frowned and looked at the floor, deep in concentration before looking back at Vincent. “Uh huh! They lef’ a note on the fridge!” and quickly scampered into the kitchen, jumping up to grab the note and handed it over for Vincent to read.

-50 for a blow, 100 for penetration and 250 for the night-.

Vincent stared at the note then down at the little girl who was humming, hugging her chocobo tightly to her chest and starring back at him. “Mr. Vincent?” Hannah asked, black eyes meeting ruby red.

The pain of nails digging into his hand tore his gaze away and he looked at the now crumpled and bloodied note that he held. Sickness threatened to over come him at the sheer wrong of the situation and Vincent forced a smile on his lips to look down at the little girl who was now climbing on top of the counter thanks to a nearby chair.

“Has anybody been here besides your parents, Hannah?”

The small girl frowned as she sat down on the counter, her legs swinging back and fourth. She was about to respond when the front door was kicked open and both Hannah and Vincent turned to watch as a group of drunken people stagger into the kitchen.

“Poppa John?” Hannah asked, confusion in her eyes.

One man stepped forward; he looked more like rat with beady eyes and small green Mohawk. “Little Hannah,” He sneered and took a step toward the little girl.

“Poppa John, Lila’s been asleep for a long time now!” Hannah cried, scrambling off of the counter and tried to run past Vincent. Instead he stopped her, putting his hand on the top of her head. Looking up at Vincent plaintively as she stayed behind his legs, clutching her chocobo tightly.

The click of a gun being cocked froze all in the room except for Hannah who watched Vincent as he pointed his weapon at the group of men.

~~~

Finally Zack and Sephiroth managed to reach the right apartment and Zack knocked on the door. Silence greeted them both and they exchanged a glance before the door slowly opened and Reno lazily stared at them. “Yeah?”

A quick kick to the door and Reno jumped back, eyes flashing as Zack followed the kick by lunging at the Turk only to have a shotgun pointed at his head. They glared at one another, Zack at Reno and Reno at Zack, both ignoring Sephiroth as he walked past the two and into the apartment.

Sephiroth sighed as he pinched the bridge of his nose and turned to the Turk. “Where’s Cloud?”

Reno didn’t take his eyes off of Zack for a moment. “Hasn’t been here in a long time,” He purred, smirking as Zack growled while Sephiroth rolled his eyes.

“Yes he has. I can fucking smell him.”

“His cum?” Reno asked, pressing the shotgun harder against the brunette’s forehead.

With inhume speed, Sephiroth had Reno pinned against a wall. The shotgun fell to the floor where Zack picked it up and pointed the weapon at the Turk. “Where the fuck is he?” Zack hissed, mako blue eyes narrowing dangerously.

Turk and ex-General glared at one another, Sephiroth’s lips barely touching Reno’s. “Where is he?”

Groaning from the bathroom and all three turned their heads. Sephiroth let go of Reno and Zack lowered his weapon, the two exchanging glances at one another while Reno rubbed his neck and pushed past the silver haired men towards the bathroom.

Ex-Soldier and ex-General followed in tow, both curious as to the groaning and watched as Reno opened the door, stepped in, and didn’t bothering to close it behind him. Two pairs of mako eyes peeked into the small room. Cloud was bent over the toilet, heaving his stomach contents into the toilet while Reno sat on the bath rim next to him, soothingly rubbing the blonde’s back.

It suddenly hit both men that Cloud was indeed pregnant. Sephiroth suddenly felt guilty. Sure he could summon down an asteroid and had no problems with killing the entire population of the planet but to know he and Zack hadn’t given Cloud any respite especially since he knew the blonde was carrying HIS child...

Cloud whimpered and heaved one final time before pulling away from the toilet and leaning against the wall, panting as he wiped his mouth against the back of his hand. He never, EVER wanted to do that again and the next time he saw Aeris, he was going to give her a piece of his mind about the whole issue.

Zack stared at Cloud and shook himself, gripping the shotgun and running over to the blonde, dragging the surprised blonde onto his lap. “Don’t ever do that again, you fucking here me?” Dimly he felt the faint nod against him and sighed, closing his eyes as he held the younger man.

“As much as I enjoy romantic interludes as another other man, do you think we could move out of the porcelain goddess domain into say, the street?” Reno asked, sarcasm rich in the air.

Cloud lifted his head and smiled weakly at the Turk, Reno winked back and turned to glare at the back of Zack’s head. The brunette slowly nodded and stood up, helping the still queasy blonde to his feet and together they managed to walk past the still stunned Sephiroth. Reno rolled his eyes and walked over to the silver haired man, taking note of the glazed eyes and proceeded to push the man out of the bathroom and steer him towards the two soldier’s now quietly talking. “Don’t forget this one,” Reno called out, shoving Sephiroth out his apartment door and slamming it shut in front of them.

Mako green eyes finally snapped out of their trance like state and Sephiroth turned, glaring at the door. “Little fucking Turk,” He grumbled and looked over at the shaken blonde, his eyes softening as he reached over and dragged Cloud into his embrace, nuzzling into the chocobo like hair. “Mine, mine, mine.”

Cloud practically melted at the words. Finally, FINALLY Sephiroth understood and it was about fucking time! He held back any vicious comments and just enjoyed the warmth but the sudden tugging on his pants, which were kindly provided by Reno along with a shirt, made him glance downwards and his heart skipped as he met a mop of blonde hair and startling green eyes. Wordlessly he stared at the child and blinked, following her gaze to where two boys stood behind Zack, each attempting to push him in the same direction. He opened his mouth to say something when the sound of gunfire entered the air and the children disappeared with a loud ‘pop’.

Sephiroth looked up from his nuzzling and nodded, Zack still holding onto Reno’s shotgun, caught the nod and ran towards the stairs. Leaving ex-General and almost-Soldier in the empty hallway. Cloud started to fidget, the children still fresh in his mind and he glanced upwards at the silver haired man, taking in the brand new gleam of possession in his green eyes. “Before you ask: No. He didn’t fuck me, I didn’t fuck him.” A silver eyebrow lifted and Cloud flushed, trying to pull away from the man’s grip. “All he did was give me some hot chocolate-”

“-And cream” Sephiroth finished, leaning down to stare at the mako blue. “Last time, Cloud. Another touches you and they end up in hospital. Understood?”

Swallowing the sudden lump in his throat, Cloud stared back. “Y-yeah,” He croaked and broke the stare and starting to drag Sephiroth towards the stairs. “But what about Zack?”

Grinning wickedly, Sephiroth scooped up the blonde and walked down the steps, pointedly ignoring Cloud’s growling. “Don’t worry, he’ll find another.”

~~~

Hannah screamed and covered her ears as Vincent shot the man armed with an automatic. Just as smoothly, side-stepped another man that lunged at him, bringing his claw upwards to slam, talon’s first, into the man’s belly and used him as a shield to drag both himself and Hannah away from the kitchen and towards the front door.

Vincent had almost reached the front door when it slammed open from behind him and he came face to face with the barrel of a shotgun. Zack paused as he looked past the vampire and at the group of men frozen on the spot, finally a small whimper forced him to look downwards and meet the eyes of a terrified little girl clinging to the ex-Turk’s legs.

Time sped up as one of the men, the one with the green Mohawk, took this opportunity to fire off a shot and hit Vincent’s shoulder. He grunted, blood spurting from the wound and Zack took use the now dead ‘shield’ for himself, firing at the group of men whom had started to crowd together around Vincent, causing screams to suddenly fill the air.

Dropping the dead man off of his claw Vincent turned and, with his good hand, reached down to scoop up the crying Hannah. Zack took aim again and fired into the crowd all the while walking backwards as Vincent fled the apartment. One last shot at the remaining group and Zack followed suite, running behind the vampire without a second glance.

Together they ran out of the apartment complex while Sephiroth took a side door to the back ally, whistling as he held tightly to the furious blonde.

“I CAN FUCKING WALK!”

“I wasn’t aware you could fuck and walk at the same time,” The most feared man in the world cooed as he headed through the sector and towards home.

Cloud sputtered, blue eyes widening as he heard whistling from around them. He whimpered and pressed his face into Sephiroth’s shoulder, praying to the planet that he survived whatever happened next.

~~~

Only after running for what seemed like forever did Vincent slow down, panting as he kept a firm grip on Hannah and tried to ignore the fact that his shoulder was badly bleeding and that Zack was trailing after him like a wolf to a dying chocobo. Speaking of chocobo’s, Vincent thought faintly of Cloud and whatever had happened to the blonde before he stumbled and collapsed on the ground, passing out.

Hannah whimpered and pulled herself from under Vincent, clinging to her now bloody chocobo plushy. She bit her bottom lip and gently pushed at his shoulder, receiving silence in reply. She wouldn’t cry, she would be strong and brave and-

“Are you okay little girl?”

Sniffling, Hannah glanced at the man that squatted beside her, a friendly smile on his face but she frowned at him. “You feel ‘unny.”

Zack blinked, not expecting a reply like that and glanced at the bleeding vampire. “Is he a friend of yours?” Only receiving a deeper frown in response Zack groaned and rubbed his face. He had to kill the ex-Turk. He just had too. Every part of his being told him too but he couldn’t do it with this little girl who seemed to be gluing herself to Vincent even as he tried to figure out some plan of exterminating the vampire. Patting his jacket pocket, he felt the needle and frowned. He’d also meant to take care of Reno but that plan was fucked. ‘FuckfuckfuckFUCK!’ he mentally swore, weighing his options. Kill Vincent and leaving the girl was out of the question, the kid wouldn’t survive five minuets by herself on the streets of Midgar without being picked up by someone. Killing both Vincent and the girl was also out of the question, he watched as said little girl settled beside the vampire and began stroking his hair. Which left one option: Keep Vincent alive, find out whatever the fuck had happened, for curiosity’s sake, Zack told himself and keep the girl safe as well.

Why didn’t things ever go simply for him?

“C’mon honey, let’s get your friend-”

“Mr. Vincent.” Hannah said, managing to look down her nose at him from her height.

“Mr. Vincent,” Zack corrected, a grin forming on his face. “-Home and taken care of, eh?”

Slowly Hannah nodded and took a step back, watching as the tall man with weird glowing blue eyes pick Vincent up and start to walk. Biting her lip, Hannah followed, grabbing hold of Zack’s pants as she peered up at him. “’M Hannah,” She squeaked, holding tighter to the material.

Zack turned and looked down at the small girl, finally taking notice of the bruises on her arms and neck. He offered her a soft smile, blue eyes faintly glowing in the coming darkness. “I’m Zack, nice to meet ya.”

~~~

There were three problems as far as Zack was concerned.

First: He didn’t know where Vincent lived. The man didn’t live above his shop as so many other owners did.

Second: Hannah was starting to drag her feet, barely awake and dragging her chocobo along the street as well.

And Third: People were starring and Zack was starting to get thoroughly annoyed by the looks he was getting. Okay, so maybe it wasn’t usual that people walked along carrying a half-dead vampire and an obviously abused child, but damn it! He had NO fucking idea where to go! Cloud and Sephiroth were out of the question, the silver haired man had plans for the blonde and Zack didn’t want to be there when Cloud found out.

“VINCENT!”

“Thank the planet,” Zack muttered as he turned to the screaming women, blinking at the sight. Short skirt, tight tank top with breasts that defied all accounts of gravity and Zack shook his head. This was no time to be thinking of tits! Panting, Tifa reached the three of them and accusingly glared at Zack.

“What have you done to him?! He’s bleeding!”

‘Hooray for Caption obvious,’ his inner voice snarled and Zack gave what he hoped was his best puppy dog expression. “Tifa! I’m so glad I found you!” Said female blushed. “We need help.”

End of Chapter 12
~~~~

A/N: I hadn’t planned on Hannah, I was writing Vincent’s part of the story and POOF! This lil’creature suddenly appears out of nowhere and I fall hopelessly in love with her. Don’t worry, she is NOT a Mary Sue so put down your torches already! I have plans for this wee one *chuckles darkly*. I know the story has taken a sudden and drastic turn, and that Cloud’s acting more like a slut then anything else but Reno is, and always will be (in my mind at least) a horn dog. Eager for some lovin’ from our favourite blonde.

This is NOT the end! Okay, I’ve received some emails/reviews asking if this is the end. It’s not. I have written some parts of a chapter that’s quite a ways away and I’m pleased with it.

I do NOT have a beta and after reading twelve pages of this (along with my own bias) things might end up sounding just a tad bit screwed up.
And finally, I LOVE YOU GUYS! YOU (yes you!) are the ones that keep this story going! Without everybody that has reviewed, I probably would have gone mad by now. Thank you all so much! *gives out cookies*
