Final Fantasy - All Series Fan Fiction ❯ Bloodshot ❯ Through the garden ( Chapter 8 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Oki, time for another chapter! I once again have done my homework so I'll get this done now!
 
Hmm ... shall Vincent be with Ansem or not? Lol, we shall see!
 
And I don't own sailor moon. : P … or FF7, but I think we all knew that. Or else Vincent would have been with Sephiroth!
 
Chapter 8 - Through the garden.
 
“ No! Zoicite can't die! NO! It's not allowed!”
 
Beatrix was sat in Vincent's room, watching anime on his laptop while Vincent scribbled away at his essay. The brunette was sat on her knees staring at the screen, tears in her eyes.
 
“ No, what will Kunzite do? Don't die!”
 
Vincent spun around and looked at her, an eyebrow raised.
 
“ Are you crying? It's not that good! Is it?”
 
“ He was my favourite character!” She hissed, “ And if you tell anyone about this you will be missing a head!”
 
Vincent grinned as he stood up and went to the door.
 
“ I won't say a word! Wouldn't want to ruin your image now, would we?” He opened the door, before turning his head to look at her, “ Would you like a cup of tea? I am just going to get one.”
 
“ Yes please.”

“ Ha! …Oh? Uh-oh! … Nngh! Ack! Ow, that hurt!”
 
Vincent and Beatrix were out in the garden, sparring. Beatrix was losing, she wasn't happy.
 
“ I … am meant … to win! I am … the one … who … urgh … uses swords often. Not … you!”
 
Vincent laughed. He stopped and signalled for Beatrix to do the same.
 
“ Not really. I spar with my Dad using swords. But I prefer guns!”
 
“Why don't you use them then?”
 
Vincent laughed. “ You can't spar with firearms! That would be way too dangerous. Besides, my Dad can't use them!”
 
They turned and began to walk around as they talked, over towards the orchards in the field behind the garden. The winter sun cast its light down, the trees formed eerie shadows as the rays halted at their presence.
 
They walked through the fields, discussing anything that came to mind. Although, they did avoid one subject: their love life. Neither one of them wished to discuss what was happening in it. Vincent was unsure as to whether he liked Sephiroth or Ansem, although he didn't really think it would make a difference if he did, as they only like him due to his intelligence and Beatrix liked Auron, but she wasn't willing to admit it to anyone.
 
The sun moved across the celestial ocean and shimmered as it lowered itself, darkened the area. The wind sang a song of horror as it howled though the trees. The trees threw themselves around, rattling loudly like scraping nails. Crows angrily cried as they swooped in the wind.
 
Vincent's head shot up as a scream echoed through the air. The two looked around, they hadn't realised it was getting dark.
 
Vincent nervously twirled the sword in his fingers. ` Someone screamed, I'm sure of it. Should I go tell my Dad? Or should I see what's happening? I don't want to lead Beatrix to danger, but I don't want to leave someone who needs help.'
 
Vincent quickly made up his mind.
 
“ Beatrix, I'm going to go see what that was! You go back and tell my Dad! Or someone! Alright?”
 
“ Right,” She nodded her head. “ Stay safe!”
 
She turned and began running back. Vincent sprinted in the opposite direction.

When Beatrix ran over with Grimoire, Vincent was sat on the grass beside an aging woman. A man lay unconscious beside them.
 
“Oh my goodness,” mumbled Grimoire, “ Are you two alright? What happened?”
 
“ I am fine, thank you!” The woman smiled and stood up, “ Thanks to this young man, I am. He was very helpful.”
 
“ I am glad!” Vincent grinned as his father beamed at him. He went back to looking at the woman, his grin gone. “ What is your name? Do you live nearby?”
 
“ I am Lady Riza. I do live quite nearby. I was walking home when this man attacked me, probably due to my wearing expensive jewellery. I don't think he was trying to kidnap me, which has happened a few times. Now come, let us get back to somewhere safe and we can talk some more.”

Chapter 8 is done! Yay! Now, please review and I shall try to update quicker.
And I love Sailor Moon. It used to be on TV when I was little. But when I found it on youtube and tried to watch it in English, it was too weird. So I watched it in Japanese instead!
