Chapter 9

“The transmitter hasn’t moved from Tifa’s bar. It moved from the room though, so someone must have found it,” Rude said watching the computer on his lap.

As they drove into town, Reno spotted Tifa’s truck parked at a store. Marlene and Denzel were outside throwing snowballs at each other.

“Oh how fortunate for us. Lookee what I’ve spotted,” he said.

“They don’t have a clue do they?” Elena said, a nasty smirk on her face.

“Be careful Reno. We’ll have to check the store to make sure no one else is there,” Tseng said.

“Everything is ready to go Miss Tifa. Would you like some help out?” said Mr. Barnes the storekeeper.

“Not this time Mr. Barnes I have a couple of helpers already. Thank you,” she said. She wondered where the children had gone off to, and called them to the counter. They didn’t respond. The hair on the back of her neck started to rise.

“Mr. Barnes would you be so kind as to call Cloud for me? Something’s wrong,” she said calmly as she walked to the front door.

“Of course Miss Tifa,” he said as his face paled, then he picked up the phone to dial Cloud’s cell phone.

Tifa walked outside and looked inside the truck. The snow was coming down harder, drowning out any sound. No children, no sound, this isn’t right. She started to feel sweat break out and run down her spine. Looking around she spotted Marlene’s fluffy pink hat on the ground near the corner of the store. Walking cautiously to the corner, she put her back to the wall, and put on her fighting gloves. She slowly peaked around the corner, and was met with a horrifying site. Marlene struggled as she was shoved into a waiting car, a hand over her mouth to keep her quiet. Denzel was fighting the person holding him. Tifa couldn’t tell who these people were because they were dressed in black from head to toe. Tifa decided she would have to distract the bastards until Cloud arrived. She heard a scream and saw Denzel biting the person holding him. He fell to the ground, and tried to get up. The kidnapper was about to backhand him, when Tifa came around the corner, foot flying towards the kidnappers head. She made contact, and the kidnapper went flying across the sidewalk.

Landing on her feet, she stood in front of the boy. “Run Denzel!”

He turned to comply, only to be grabbed by Rude. She turned to Denzel’s muffled protests. Her eyes widened, and she dropped into a fighting stance.

Tseng emerged from the car, and Tifa looked at him. “You! Why are you here doing this?” she screamed turning to face him.

“We want that woman you are harboring at your bar. Since she would not come peacefully, our Boss said to get her using any means necessary. This is any means necessary. Now be nice, cooperate with us, and we won’t have to hurt you. Your friends wouldn’t like that much would they?” Tseng said pointing his gun at her.

Tifa straightened from her stance, and hung her shoulders.

Elena walked towards Tifa with her gun drawn, and pushed it against the back of her head. “Bitch I’m gonna…,” she said clutching the side of her aching head with her free hand.

“Elena not now. You’ll get your chance later. Rude get the boy unconscious and in the car,” Tseng said turning to look at Tifa. “Woman you are at the wrong place at the wrong time. I’m sorry but you’ll have to come also. Elena get in the car and have Reno pop the trunk. It’s time for Miss Lockheart to meet her new quarters.”

Tseng walked towards her as he holstered his gun. Tifa looked into his eyes as he got closer, and spit in his face. He raised his hand to slap her, and she rushed under his arm with her fist. She aimed for his chest, and got a knee to the stomach. The air emptied from her lungs, and she jumped a few paces back. She looked at him with rage filled eyes. He stalked towards her like a predator ready to pounce. She was sucking in the cold air trying to get her breathing normal. She backed up against the wall of the store. As he got closer, she shoved of the wall with her feet, and moved in on him as fast as lightening. She faked a punch, grabbed the lapels of his jacket, and went to flip over him. He grabbed the front of her coat, and pulled down. Keeping a hold of his jacket, she balled up, and put her feet into his chest. Pushing off him, she tried to flip him over her, and succeeded. He hit the wall of the store. She scrambled back up into a fighting stance only to be met with a fist in her chest, and a hand to her throat. Tseng had reversed her move, and improvised with his own. Gasping for air, she walked backwards. Tseng ran at her and grabbed a handful of her hair. Pulling her head back, he ravaged her mouth with his. She bit him and drew blood. His anger flared, and he punched her in the jaw. Tifa crumpled to the ground, the snow covering the sound of her fall.

Tseng looked at Elena, he licked the blood off his lip, and shook his head. Sighing, she walked to the car, and got in the back next to Rude. Tseng always loved a woman who could fight back. It turned him on.

Tseng picked Tifa up and took her to the trunk. He dropped her in, and took a look at her. Moving her hair from her face, he leaned down and placed a kiss on her jaw. “Those kids have made you soft woman. That’s going to leave a mark. I may have to join in the fun when we get you to base,” he said as he closed the trunk. He walked around the car and got in the front passenger side.

“Let’s go Reno. We have some more planning to do,” Tseng said as he pulled out his cell phone. He dialed Rufus’ phone
number. “Sir, we kidnapped those two brats, and Tifa Lockheart. I’m sure the woman will come to us in exchange for them... Sir, have I interrupted something?”

“No you haven’t interrupted. I can start what I was doing in a moment. Well done, Tseng. I will meet you at our secret hiding place later. Get a hold of that little bitch Strife. Make sure you have him squirming, and angry enough to hand that woman over to us. When he comes for his packages I want to see him beg,” Rufus said.

“Yes sir.” Tseng flipped his phone closed and looked into the side mirror just as Cloud pulled up to the store and rushed inside. He smiled and turned to look at the children.

“Good, sound asleep. You alright Elena?”

“Yeah, but I’m going to have one bitch of a headache tomorrow.”

“You’ll be fine. I’m putting you in charge of those brats.”

“What? I don’t know anything about kids.”

“Well now is the time to learn. Just think of it as training. Reno when we get to our destination, I’m putting you in charge of Miss Lockheart.”

“Why is he in charge of that whore. You said I would get my chance at her,” Elena said.

“Enough Elena. I know you babe; you’ll beat her ass, and use an electro-shock vibrator on her. We don’t want her dead yet. Reno will take good care of her, and if you’re nice to him maybe he will let you join in the fun.”

Reno smirked and licked his lips in the rear view mirror at her. The look she gave him could kill in an instant. He chuckled as he put the pedal to the metal.

“Was that one of your Turks?”

Turning to the man on the bed Rufus smiled and nodded. “They will have her soon, and then we can get started,” he said.

“Good. You know I’m not into women as much as men, cousin, but I will enjoy this one. She will be the perfect specimen. I will accomplish what Hojo couldn’t,” said the man lying naked, flat on his back on the bed. He looked over at Rufus, and held out his hand. “Come to me cousin. I haven’t seen you in such a long time, and I’m going to enjoy you as well.”

Smiling at his cousin he slid across the black silk sheets on his hands and knees. Zavier Shinra was the first man to introduce him to the pleasures and pains of sex. Zav was only two years older than him, but had much more experience. The man was tall, and very well built. He had long dark blond hair that was always kept back in a ponytail. His bangs had a tendency to slip from that ponytail, and frame his face. Right now his hair was free and pooled around his head. His lightly tanned skin was soft and supple, and would make anyone jealous. His eyes were what could throw anyone off guard. They used to be an exotic light green, and now they were glowing with Mako. The Mako made them seem otherworldly. An ex-SOLDIER, he could freeze a man to the core with a look, and make people beg for their lives without even touching them. Right now those eyes looked at him as if he were a precious jewel he coveted. The man was wickedly sexy, and intimidating. Some said that he reminded them of Sephiroth, and that those two would be a perfect team.

Rufus lay down next to him when Zav rolled over, and pulled Rufus under him. Rufus gasped. Settling himself lightly on top of Rufus, Zav held himself up with one arm. He put his hand on Rufus’ face and softly moved it to caress his ear.

“I’m so glad you are cured of the Geostigma cousin. I do not want to conquer the world alone. We will have our revenge on those who would thwart us,” he whispered. “Close your eyes.”

Rufus did as he was told, and fisted his hands in the sheets. He couldn’t tell what mood his cousin was in sometimes, and when that happened his cousin could be unpredictable. He liked to get dark on occasion when he had sex, hurting Rufus just for the fun of it.

Leaning down, he blew softly across Rufus’ face, and got the reaction he wanted. Rufus’ cock started to harden, and pulse against his abdomen. He could feel his own erection starting to stiffen even more with that pulse. He closed the gap and lightly bit Rufus’ lower lip making Rufus jump. He chuckled, and licked the bite mark.

“What should I do with you tonight cousin? Hmmm… We haven’t seen each other in a few years, so maybe I should go easy on you. Maybe I should have someone join in, one of your pretty boy Turks? You always did like the pretty ones. Would you like that, what shall it be?”

Opening his eyes, he gave his cousin a dark, wicked smile. “Neither Zav. I don’t want to tire myself. From what Reno told me, that woman is a tenacious bitch, and we will have so much fun taming her. I want to be nice to her at first cousin, and then bring on the pain when the time is right. Father told me that the Halcyon women could make a man come with a look, and that they are true descendants of the gods. I hope he’s right, because I want to be the first to crush her, and everything she stands for.”

“Well then, shall we proceed?”

“By all means Zav. Do what you will.”

Putting the arm holding himself up under Rufus’ back, he pulled him up against his chest. Using the free hand that caressed Rufus’ ear, he grabbed a handful of Rufus hair, and pulled his head back, exposing the side of his neck. Leaning into his neck Zav bit him hard causing Rufus to jump again, and moan. He bit him hard enough to draw a little bit of blood. Zav smiled against his neck, and licked at the blood he had drawn. He enjoyed the coppery taste as it slid over his tongue. Turning Rufus’ face to his, he claimed his mouth in a hot, punishing kiss. He sat up and brought Rufus with him.

Rufus let go of the sheet and ran his hands up Zav’s chest, and put his arms around his neck. Both men sat on their knees, and kissed until they were breathless. Zav let go of Rufus’ hair and ran his hand down his back to the smooth, hard buttocks, and gently squeezed. He pulled him closer, and moved his hand around to grasp Rufus’ hard cock.

Rufus growled, used his manicured nails to scratch down Zav’s back, and drew some blood just to even the blood match. Zav gasped, grasped Rufus’ erection harder, and flicked around the sensitive head with his long thumbnail. Rufus narrowed his eyes looking into his cousin’s, and his cousin stared him down making him look away.

Rufus realized that his cousin had changed since he last saw him. The hair on the back of his neck raised, and he realized that there was something in that change he didn’t like.

Zav realized that he was scaring his dear cousin and settled himself. It wouldn’t do to scare one of his trusted allies. He gently started to pump his hand up and down on Rufus’ shaft, feeling the pulse within. He always loved to feel a heart beating, and watching blood pulsing through veins. Rufus’ erection started to go soft. Zav opened his eyes, and looked at Rufus.

Rufus opened his eyes, and looked at his cousin. His eyes were normal now, but he couldn’t shake the feeling that there was something wrong with his cousin. He put his hands on his cousin’s chest, and went to push him away.

Sensing this Zav pulled Rufus closer, and embraced him. Hugging him the way he did when they first had sex. He took one of his hands and stroked a stray lock of hair from his face. He would have to be gentle, much to his disappointment, if he wanted his cousin to trust him.

“I’m sorry cousin. Sometimes when I see or smell blood, especially mine, I go out of it a bit. It was SOLDIER that did this to me. Don’t be scared of me, please. You are the only one who isn’t. I would never truly harm you. You’re the only family I have left. Please Rufus.”

Hearing the pleading voice of his cousin, he thought that he could give him the benefit of a doubt. He put his arms around his cousin, and settled his chin on his shoulder. He didn’t voice any weaknesses to anyone but his most trusted people. He would guard what he said to his cousin from now on.

“Take it easy tonight will you? My leg is bothering me, and it hasn’t been the same since I was almost killed in that explosion.”

Zav nodded.

Rufus lay back on the bed, and pulled Zav with him. Zav lay on his side, and moved closer to Rufus. Zav let Rufus take over this time. Rufus rolled to his side facing his cousin, and pushed Zav onto his back. Zav put his hands behind his head, and closed his eyes.

Rufus knew this would probably be the last time he would sleep with this lover. This would have to be slow and special. He leaned over his cousin, and lightly stroked his lips with his tongue. Zav opened his mouth to allow Rufus entry. They kissed slowly at first, and Zav started to growl knowing that would turn his cousin on. Rufus then heated the kiss, making it deeper. He started to run his hand over Zav’s chest, feeling the steely muscles underneath. He got to one of Zav’s nipples; still surprised to see they were pierced, squeezed it, and started to roll it around under his palm.

Zav started to growl at the sensation in his nipple that sent shocks to his groin. Rufus stroked gently with his nail over to the other nipple, starting the sensation again, and building it higher. Releasing his mouth from his cousin’s lips, he tugged on the back of his long hair to tilt his head back, and ran his tongue in circles down to the nipple he was working on. Taking the piercing in his mouth, he pulled gently on it making his cousin inhale deeply. He let it go, and swirled his tongue around the nipple. He gently scratched down the chiseled stomach making the muscles jump. He grasped Zav’s cock, and stroked down the soft shaft to the sac at its base. Grabbing it, he squeezed gently, and started to roll it around in his and. Zav opened his legs more, so Rufus could get a better hold. Rufus could hear Zav’s breathing getting ragged. He smiled, and licked over to the other nipple, and gave it the same treatment. He lifted his head, looked down to Zav’s large engorged erection, and put his palm around it.

He could hear a growl deep in Zav’s throat. He leaned over and continued down to that erection, taking the head into his mouth. Zav jumped, and flexed his hips. This got Rufus hard again, and he maneuvered himself over to straddle Zav’s legs, and took the hard cock into his mouth up to the hilt. He knew this would turn Zav on, and it worked. Zav grabbed Rufus’ head to steady him. Rufus started to suck hard, and pull his head up slowly. He could hear his cousin grinding his teeth. He started to bob up and down, swirling his tongue around the head every once in awhile.

After a few minutes of this, Rufus released the erection and looked up at his cousin. Damn he was beautiful all flushed like this. He propped his body over his cousin’s, and reached in the nightstand for the lubricant. Zav put an arm around Rufus, and stroked his buttocks with the other. Rolling on to his side again, he opened the lube, and put some on his fingers. He looked up at his cousin, and smiled. He put his leg in between his cousin’s, and moved them apart. Zav rolled his hips up, so that Rufus could gain access to his tunnel. Rufus pushed two of his fingers in the tight hole, and slowly put in a third when he felt Zav relax. He got up on his knees, and used his other hand to stroke the quivering cock.

Zav groaned, as Rufus pushed farther in. He flexed his hips with every stroke of his erection. Knowing he was going to burst, he reached down, and pulled Rufus next to him. He punished Rufus’ mouth, and reached down to grab his hardened erection. Rufus gasped, and flexed into his cousin’s hand. Zav sat up against the headboard, and pulled Rufus with him. Zav turned him around facing away from him, so he was straddling his legs, and grabbed the lube. Stroking the lubricant up and own his erection, he used what was left on his fingers to probe Rufus’ entrance. He pushed one finger in first, then two, making Rufus squirm and moan in the process. He pushed in a third, started to push in and out, and Rufus moaned louder.

While his cousin did this he stroked his own erection. Rufus pushed up and down on his cousin’s exquisite fingers, and started to go faster as the friction started to build. Knowing his cousin was nearing the edge; Zav pulled his fingers out, and adjusted Rufus over him. Pressing the head of his cock at Rufus’ entrance, he pushed in, and heard Rufus moan. Slowly pushing in farther and farther, he finally reached a point where he could no longer push in, and put his hands on Rufus’ hips. The tightness was so exquisite, and he didn’t want it to end. Slowly he pulled up on Rufus’ hips, and heard is cousins gasp of pleasure. Moving in a slow rhythm at first, they matched each other, and built on the pleasure of it all.

Rufus took his erection in his hand and started to pump up and down. The pleasure his cousin was giving him was intense. Even Reno and Tseng couldn’t match his cousin. Maybe it was because there was a little more there with his cousin, than with his associates and lovers. Rufus could tell that was coming to an end now, and he tried to savor this moment. They both burned hotter and started to go faster, and their moans got louder as they started to reach the peak.

Zav pulled Rufus against his chest, and turned his face to kiss him. They dueled with their tongues, until Rufus cried out, and came. Zav gave a feral growl, and pumped harder into Rufus, until he too came.

Zav pulled Rufus closer to his chest, and circled him with his arms. He laid his forehead against his cousin’s back, and licked the sweat slipping down his skin. They sat there like this for a few minutes until their breathing became normal.

Rufus’s cell phone started to vibrate on the nightstand, growling, he reached over to grab it.

“Yes, what is it?” he said, annoyance coming through in his voice. A little peeved at the interruption, but knowing it was Tseng or Reno.

Zav moved from under Rufus, got off the bed, and placed a kiss on his cousin’s forehead. Turning, he went into the bathroom, and ran a shower for both of them.

“Sir we have a plan, and we are ready to put it into place,” Tseng said.

“Good, let me know as soon as possible that you have her. If you need backup call me.”

“Yes sir… You owe us later Rufus.”

“Owe you, Tseng, and why is that?”

“You were with Zav weren’t you? Well, maybe Reno or myself wanted to join in too. Oh well, there’s always later.”

“Maybe.”

“Is there something wrong?”

“I’ll tell you later. It may just be nothing.”

“Alright, over and out.”

Hanging up the phone, Rufus lay down on the bed for a few more minutes, and thought about his cousin. What happened these past few years to change him? He got up and walked to the bathroom. Being an ex-SOLDIER changed his cousins showering habits. His cousin had already washed and gotten out, and was getting dressed. He walked over to his cousin, and looked at him in the mirror.

“Leaving so soon Zav?” Rufus asked.

Zav pulled a white lab coat off a peg next to the sink, put it on, and looked at his cousin. He gave a small smile, walked to Rufus, and smoothed a lock of hair away from his face.

“I have to prepare in case we have to start the experimentation sooner than expected. My lab is not completely ready, and I have to brief my staff. My dear cousin this is the moment we have been waiting for… Let me know when she is here, so that I can run some tests on her. If you need me you know where I am.”

Rufus nodded, and his cousin walked out of the bathroom.

Rufus let out a big sigh, and stepped into the hot shower. He leaned against the wall, thought that all hell was going to break loose, and that he may not be able to handle it this time.
