"How dare you all!" the redheaded haired male shouted, "The Goddess would weep if she saw this!"

"Wait...what?" Zack stared up at the tall SOLDIER.

"You are shaming the Goddess' holy day!" Genesis snarled.

The raven haired male looked up from his seat on the floor with wide violet eyes, then dropped his gaze down to the candy strewn around him. "No I'm not," he said in a childish tone.

"Genesis, leave Zack alone," a voice called.

"Angeal, stay out of this!" the redhead snapped.

"No hurting the puppy."

"He's eating sugar."

"ZACK!" three voices yelled.

"I didn't do it!" Zack shouted back as he started stuffing his candy in his pockets.

"We can see you Puppy," Angeal sighed, his black hair falling in his face as he shook his head.

"Mine!" the smaller brunet flomped over the pile of candy, gripping it possessively.

"Zack...let go of the sugar," Cloud started forward with his hands up submissively.

"Touch my candy and I will set you all on fire!"

"I'm immune to fire," Sephiroth stated bluntly and grabbed the smaller brunet and hauling him off the sweets.

"Noooo!" Zack wailed, "My candy!"

"Someone get that stuff out of here," the silver haired man instructed as he fought the squirming brunet.

"I WILL KILL YOU ALL!" Zack screamed.

"If you do not behave we won't let you go to the party," Genesis stated smugly.

"...you don't have that power," violet eyes narrowed dangerously.

"He may not," Sephiroth said calmly, "But I do. Behave or else."

"I hate you all."

"Well this sucks," Cloud stated.

"I couldn't agree more," Angeal said evenly.

"Oh come on," Genesis pouted, "Get into the spirit. Praise the Goddess. ...I will hurt you if you don't."

"Wheeeee!" Zack went flying past on an office chair with wheels.

"I like this holiday," Sephiroth announced as he went chasing after the brunet, swaying slightly under the influence of quite a large amount of alcohol.

"Well at least Seph is having fun," Cloud mused, "...praise the Goddess."

"Good boy," Genesis smirked, "Oh look! Tseng is here!"

Angeal and Cloud watched as the redhead skipped off, his medieval Loveless outfit bouncing with his movements. Cloud sighed heavily and looked down at the outfit he had been stuffed into. It could have been worse, he recognized that, but he wasn't happy. He was basically in a furry(1) version of a chocobo rather than the actual bird, a tight yellow body suit punctuated with strategically placed feathers. What really annoyed him was that Zack and Sephiroth had declared that nothing was to be done to his hair. Glancing up at Angeal, Cloud felt his eye twitch a little.

"Second class SOLDIER," the blond said dully, "Creative."

"He refused to allow me to dress him," Genesis sighed dejectedly as he came over, a disgruntled Tseng under his arm. The Turk was dressed all in black.

"What are you supposed to be?" Angeal asked disinterestedly.

"...I think I'm a ninja," the Turk picked at his shirt.

"You don't know what you are?" Cloud raised a golden eyebrow.

"At least I'm not a bird," the Turk glared.

"Hey ninja boy," Cloud started forward threateningly.

"IF YOU HURT HIM I WILL KILL YOU!" Genesis screamed.

Silence stretched between the group. Genesis seethed, Angeal had dropped his face into his hand, Cloud looked scared, and Tseng was attempting to get out from beneath the redhead's arm and flee. "Wheeeeeeeeee!" Zack went zipping by with Reno on his back and Sephiroth pushing the chair.

"I need a drink," Cloud muttered and wandered off.

Cloud stared at the ceiling, head pounding. "Get up," Sephiroth poked the blond and earned a groan.

"Too loud," Zack muttered from his place beside Cloud, "Head pounding. Uhg."

"Get. Up."

"Die. Now." Cloud muttered as he rolled over and burried his face in Zack's chest, "I have a hangover."

"You were drinking last night?" the General frowned, "You're underage Cloud, you need to stop that."

"Bite me," the blond said as he snuggled into the accommodating brunet beneath him, "I don't need to work today, I don't have training today, I can sleep."

"Sugar," Zack moaned as he snuggled the blond.

"Puppy!" a voice yelled and Zack groaned, "Get up, we have a mission!"

"Die. I want to sleeeeeeeeep," the brunet groaned before yelping when Cloud pushed him off the bed.

"All of you go away," the blond growled, glaring at the group before frowning, "Are you still in your costume?"

"Why yes I am," Genesis said airily, "I feel I look rather strapping in it."

"...I hope you get mud on it," Cloud snapped before pulling the covers over his head and disappearing from view.

"I hate you," the redhead growled.

"I hope you get blood on it," Zack smirked before wincing as light hit him in the eyes, "Stains better."
