A.N. Okay. I know this chapter is short, but I had to get things moving. Next chapter, the plot will emerge! I had a really hard time writing Sephiroth in this one... but I hope it turned out okay! (He's a hard cookie to write :/) Enjoy and R&R!
Chapter 6: Matchmaker, Matchmaker
It had been a week since the return of their friend, and Sephiroth was ready to strangle her.
"Oh, there you are, Sephiroth. I can't leave right now, I have to keep an eye on the kids - gotta earn my keep somehow - but Yazoo needs this dropped off at the Dojo. Can you run it over there for me?"
"Sephiroth, I forgot my purse at the Dojo. Sassi gave me quite a bit of money, and I'm afraid someone will take it. Will you get it for me?"
"Sephiroth, I don't feel well, but Sukai needs this materia for her new invention. Could you drop it off to her?"
He'd been nothing more than a pack-chocobo for Harmony for the past seven days! The worst was the last one. He finally caught a glimpse of the engineer/warrior, and what did she do? Squeak and disappear into the basement, making him deal with Vincent's girlfriend!
He was currently on his way back to the dojo, once again running an errand for the Guardian.
'Why is the Seven Hells am I not just slicing her up or ignoring her?' He thought to himself as he walked through the doors.
"Hello, Sephiroth." Yazoo called from his position at the front of the room. There were about two-dozen people in lines throughout the room. He was interrupting class. "Is that another materia for Sukai?"
"Yes." Sephiroth said, holding it out. Yazoo shook his head.
"I can't take it to her right now, I'm in the middle of class. And I don't think its a good idea to just leave it lying around. Sytherea's class tends to get a bit curious. Why don't you just run it down to her? It should be safe enough, for the moment. I took away all things flammable last night."
Sephiroth sighed. "Alright. Thank you." He turned from the stares of awe and fear from the group of students and made his way to the basement. When he reached the door to Sukai's workshop, he knocked politely, not sure how the woman would react to him just barging in.
"Come in!" Her voice called.
He entered the room and stopped, staring at the walls and tables. It was actually quite impressive. A squeak caught his attention.
"O-oh! H-h-hi!" She said upon realizing who had just entered her domain. "Can I help you?"
He nodded, holding out the glowing green orb. "Harmony informed me that you needed a low-level Time materia. She asked me to bring this to you." He said. He shifted uncomfortably when she took it from him, and then continued to stare. He looked around the room, trying to take her focus off of him.
"What is it that you needed it for?" He asked, actually truly interested.
That seemed to snap the woman out of her trance. She stepped back and blinked rapidly, her cheeks coloring in a way that made Sephiroth increasingly uncomfortable.
"Uh. Its for the upgrade for my Wave Rider. I added my own flamethrower to the side... but when I use it, the fuel ejects too fast and I get caught in the blaze. I thought that if I equipped and copied some Time materia into the system, it would help my solve the problem. If nothing else it'll get me closer to the answer." She said in a professional tone.
'He's just a man. Nothing more. I don't know why I'm getting so worked up over a guy!' She thought to herself.
'Uh, probably because he's incredibly super-sexy-hot, one of the most powerful people on the entire planet, and from what I've heard, he's fuckin' smart!' her thoughts echoed back.
"Yeah, that's it." She said quietly, not realizing she had spoken aloud until Sephiroth once again turned to face her.
"What's 'it'?" He asked.
Sukai dearly hoped that he thought she was talking about her Wave Rider. "Oh, I just thought of a way to re-adjust the fuel intake valve and hopefully slow the flow. I'd hate to explode."
Sephiroth raised a finely arched eyebrow. "Indeed."
'Alright.' He grudgingly admitted, 'Maybe she's not so bad. Just a bit scatter-brained.'
"I better get back to work. I did promise to have that new hand-held grenade launcher ready for Tseng in only three days." Sukai rushed, wanting to talk to the General, but desperately needing him to leave.
"Yes, of course." Sephiroth said, hurrying to leave her be. He stopped in the doorway. "You really do have quite the talent for tinkering." He said over his shoulder.
Sukai giggled nervously. "Oh, I'm just a silly little chocobo lookin' for the best greens!"
Sephiroth smirked as he closed the door behind him. Although she acted nervous, Sukai was the first woman - other than Harmony and Sassi - who did not act terrified of him upon their first meeting. Sukai acted more nervous than anything... but it was different. Oh well, he was sure that tomorrow, Harmony would have another errand for him. He rolled his eyes as he thought of the witch. Maybe staying in bed tomorrow was a good idea.
!#$%^&*()
Harmony and Sassi laughed with eachother as they made their way to the dojo, Harmony have let Sassi in on her matchmaking scheme.
"You know if he finds out, he'll slaughter you, right?" Sassi chuckled.
"He could try." Harmony bragged... though she knew that it was a very real possibility.
For the past week, she and Sassi finally felt like they were getting their lives back on track. Harmony spent most of the day at the dojo Kadaj while Kiku went to school, and at night he would come to Sassi's for an hour or so, and either talk with, or just watch Kiku.
"So what other excuses have you been feeding him, for always having to come to the dojo?" Sassi asked.
"What about the dojo?" Angeal asked from their right as they walked into the dojo.
"Who-jo?" Sassi asked, comically looking around.
"You-jo!" Harmony answered, pointing at her.
"Me?"
"You remind me of the babe!" Harmony said, grinning and hoping that Sassi would play along.
Sassi grinned back, catching on. "What babe?"
"The babe with the power!"
"What power?"
Harmony spread her hands out, getting into her game. "The power of Voodoo!"
"Who do?"
"You do!"
"Do what?"
"Remind me of the babe!" Harmony sang.
Angeal watched with growing confusion as both women broke out into song, moving their bodies in a ridiculous dance.
"Dance, magic dance! Dance, magic dance!**" They sang.
"What are you doing?" Kadaj asked from behind them.
"We're not doing anything, what are you talking about?" Harmony said, still holding Sassi's gloved hands and twirling.
Kadaj shook his head. "Every day you guys get more and more bizarre."
Harmony and Sassi laughed, ignoring the barb, and stopped spinning as Yazoo approached.
"Okay, Hari." He stated. "Today, we're trying something different. I'm putting you against some of my best students. I want you to defeat them all."
Harmony glanced at the men and women lined up behind Yazoo and Loz. She gulped. "All of them?"
Yazoo nodded, a slight smirk adorning his features. "Yes. All of them."
** - If none of you know where this comes from, you shame me. All Hail Goblin King Jareth! (DB's like, 100 years old and he's still freakin' HOT!)
