DemonGirl-Setsuna: Hi there! Setsuna here!

Well, Vincent discovered the secret of what powers Yoko’s special-abilities.
But she still has secrets that he and the others still DON’T know about!
Will they ever discover them?

Side-Note: I still haven’t been playing my ‘Final Fantasy VII’ so I again have no news about it! With me suffering from insomnia and a brother who keeps pestering me to play other games not related to Final Fantasy, frankly I’m drained of energy…

And I’m currently planning for an Anime-Convention!

Anyway…

Here is Chapter 20!
Please Enjoy!


*Disclaimer: I don’t own Final Fantasy VII. But I’ve been playing my copy of the game and I’m on the third disc now!*

-------------------------------------------------------------





“As Cloud and the others were fighting to make their way back to the surface, Yuffie and I were helping with the evacuation of Midgar”, Vincent explains, as he sat in front of Yoko on the Chocobo’s back.

“Wow, so that’s the full story of how Sephiroth was defeated?”, she asks, “Were you part of the fight against Deep-Ground as well?”

“Yeah, but that’ll have to wait for another time…”, he says, “We’re almost to Costa Del Sol”

“Do you think we should get off and walk the rest of the way?”

“Not until the town is in view”, he shakes his head.

“Okay…”, she whispers, pressing against his back as she held onto his waist.

Vincent couldn’t help but lightly touch the back of her hands with one of his own, haven’t felt this feeling of complete trust in not letting someone fall in a long time.

Lucrecia…’, he thinks, with a small smile.

“Hey Vincent, I think I see the town!”, Yoko suddenly exclaims, snapping him from his thoughts.

“Huh…?”, he gasps, looking in the direction the woman was pointing, “It seems you’re right”, he states, climbing off the Chocobo’s back.

“Do you think the ship made it into port in time?”, she questions, as he helps her slide off the giant-bird.

“Probably…”

“I just hope they got all my stuff from my room”

“Pixie, most likely made sure that none of your stuff was left behind”

“How are your injuries doing?”

“My ribs are almost completely healed”, he replies, lightly touching his side.

“That’s good”

“How are your powers?”, he asks.

“I’m back at full-strength”, she informs, starting to walk towards the coastal-town.

“That’s good…”

“Well, we might as well hurry so we’re not keeping everybody waiting”, she states, rushing ahead.

“It isn’t like they’re going to leave without us!”, he calls out.

“I know that!”, she shouts back, “I do at least want to take a shower before we have to continue on the journey!”

“Restless…”, he mutters with a smirk, “Hey, wait up!, he yells, running after her.

-Costa Del Sol-





“Say Zack?”, Nicole asks from her beach-chair; sun-bathing, dressed in a blue two-piece bathing-suit.

“What is it, Nicole?”, he returns, as he works on building a sand-castle while wearing navy-blue swim-trunks.

“Do you think Yoko and Vincent are alright?”

“You heard Pixie, Ruvie had gotten in contact with them and they’re on their way here, so don’t worry”

“Yeah but, I can’t help worrying…”, she states, “Neither Yoko nor Vincent have their guns with them and there’s Mako-monsters out there”

“Aw, how cute?!”, she heard someone coo from behind her, “You were worrying your pretty little blonde-head about us”

Nicole tilts her head back and spots Yoko leaning against the back of the chair, looking down upon her with a smile.

“Yoko?!”, the two teens shout.

“Hey, don’t forget about the other member of our team”, the singer informs, pointing towards the former-Turk standing a few feet away.

“V-Vincent…”, Zack stammers.

“I’m so glad that the both of you are alright!”, Nicole exclaims, leaping up and hugs the singer tightly, before facing the stoic-Vincent.

“You can hug me, but gently…”, he replies, “My ribs are still a little broken from falling off the ship”

“Yeah!”, she squeals, rushing over to him and gives him a light-hug.

“Nicole’s been worried sick ever since the two of you fell overboard”

“It is understandable, she did witness my tumble over the railing and Vincent leaping in after me…”, Yoko whispers to him, “By the way, where is everybody else?”

“My sister and Renji are out buying supplies, Pixie is in one of the rooms recharging”

“And where is it we’re staying at?”

“That would be my family’s Beach-house”, Nicole answers, “It’s the only thing my father still does own from when there was a Shinra-Corporation”

“And that would be where?”

“I’ll give you the guided-tour”, she informs, slipping on a pair of flip-flops before grabbing hold of her wrist and leads her off of the sands up the stone-steps into town.

-Hours Later-





“Hey, Nicole?”, Jessie questions, as she steps into the hot-spring.

“Huh? What Jessie?”

“My parents told me the story of their travels and had come through Costa del Sol”, she says, “They had even checked out your father’s beach-house when it had been on sale 20-years ago and there wasn’t a hot-spring here at the time”

“I know, it’s just I suggested that he rent the rooms of the Beach-house out during the winter-months, but who would want to go to the beach when it’s cold?”, she explains, “Should I told him that guests might come if there was a hot-spring attached to the building, because winter-sunsets on the beach are really stunning”

“So a Romantic-winter-retreat, right?”, Yoko inquires.

“Correct”

“When is your Romantic-Winter-Retreat supposed to open?”

“Hopefully, when I turn 18”

“I do have a question for you, Nicole”, Jessie states.

“Yeah, what is it?”

“Where exactly did your father pick up Renji?”, she asks, “He seems to be uncivilized and jumps to conclusions too quickly”

“Renji is the child of one of my father’s employees; Reno, after he got drunkenly-married at Gold-Saucer 18-years ago”, she replies, “Now I have one for you”

“Okay, shoot”

“Why do you keep referring to Renji as he?”

“Wait… What…?”




----------------





-Meanwhile-




“Ah… Finally…”, Zack sighs in relief, as he sinks into the water, “Some time away from my sister and the other girls…”

“I hope you don’t mind some company”, he heard Renji say from the door, inticing him to turn and face the Truk-trainee.

“…Uh…um…”, he stammers, as his eyes become the size of saucers at the sight of the teen with a towel wrapped around his frame, but the towel was barely covering the modest-sized A-cups adorning his chest.




----------------





“S-so… Renji is a… girl…?”, Jessie stutters.

“Surprised, huh?”, Nicole giggles.

“I’m just wondering how my brother is going to react when he finds out?”

“HOLY SHIT, YOU’RE A GIRL!”, they heard Zack’s voice scream out from the other side of the wall separating the two-sides of the hot-spring.

“By the sound of that scream”, Yoko comments, “Zack just found out”

“I guess so…”, she sighs.

“You three talking about me?”, Renji questions, poking her head over the wall.

“We were just discussing how most of us were wrong about your gender, Ren-chan”, Nicole states.

“I see…”, she laughs.

“So, what’s my brother doing now that he knows the truth about you?”

“He ran back inside with his face looking like a beet”, she chuckles, climbing over the fence.

“Oh dear…”, the blonde gasps, rushing from the water into the house.

“Great, just what Zack needs…”, Jessie groans, “First finding out that the guy he’s been bunking with is a chick, and second comforted by his fan-girl…”

“Well, it kind of was your guys fault for not asking about my true-gender”, the red-head informs.

“Well the name ‘Renji’ is a male’s name”

“That would be my father’s fault, he was the one who choose my name”
“Interesting…”, the singer mutters, “Say, do you think it’s time to get out of the hot-spring before we over-heat”

“Might as well…”, Jessie shrugs, standing up while wrapping a towel around her body and heads inside, followed by the other two-girls dressed in similar-states.

A few minutes later, after the three-females had changed from their towels into some robes, Zack comes rushing in looking panicked, completely flushed and out of breath, “Jessie… you have to help me…!”, he gasps for air.

“Oh come on, Zack…”, she sighs, rolling her eyes, “Nicole can’t be that bad in wanting to comfort you”

“That’s not it!”, he shouts, “Me and Nicole had went out to walk on the beach, I had run up ahead of her because she saw a shell that she took a liking to about to be washed away by a wave, and when I turned back around to show her that I had gotten the shell I saw her struggling against several-men as they were forcing her off the sand and into a limo!”

“What?!”, Renji screams, “Why didn’t you try to stop them?!”

“I tried to, but they drove away before I could get to the vehicle!”, he exclaims, “But in their rush, they did leave behind one of the men”

“You did interrogate him, right?”, the bodyguard questions.

“Yes, and one better”, he replies, pulling out a card from his shirt-pocket and hands it to the red-head, “Apparently, the guy’s boss is the one who wanted them to kidnap Nicole”

“Do you think it’s because she’s a Shinra?”, Jessie asks.

“I don’t know”

“Then why don’t we go ask the boss-man; Hisoka Hibiki, himself”, Renji smirks.

“Did you just say; Hisoka Hibiki?”, Yoko inquires.

“Yeah, do you know him?”

“Sort of…”, she grumbles, “He wanted to marry me, but I turned him down. Last I heard of him, he’s been bride-napping girls underneath the law’s nose”

“He intends to marry Nicole?!”, Zack yells.

“It gets even worst, the girls he marries end up missing a month after the wedding”

“And the police don’t grow suspicious?”, his sister questions.

“The guy is loaded and money can take you far in getting someone to turn a blind-eye”

“What are we going to do?”, Zack panics.

“Fortunately, I do know that he always throws a huge-party the night of the wedding before the exchange of ‘vows’, she’ll be kept safe until then and that will be the time to rescue her”, she answers, “Just let me make a phone call”, she winks, grabbing her cell-phone from her bag and inputs a number, “Hello, Dave? I need to do a favor for me… I need you to get me some invites to Hisoka Hibiki’s latest-wedding… Get me a handful… I have to do something in exchange? Fine, fine… I’ll do the Golden Saucer concert, but make sure ‘you-know-who’ isn’t going to be there, alright? Thanks for your help, Dave”, she argues over the phone, “We’re all set!”

“That’s great!”

“Now we just need to get some formal-clothing for the party”
