Final Fantasy - All Series Fan Fiction ❯ If I Could Be You For A Day ❯ A Wish Upon A Star ( Chapter 1 )
It felt strange for Vincent Valentine. He stared up at the sparkling stars and ever wondered if one of them was Lucrecia. Yet that was many years ago. The past could always be painful to one who looks at it, and the truth hurts. He turned his face away into the shadows of his mansion, stepping back from the bright curtained window in his bedroom.
But then he saw it.
In the sky, there only seemed to be one speck that caught his eye. A white star, shiniest of them all, glowed down to his house and shone its light onto Nibelheim.
It was a wishing star.
His mind turned back to the people he had met during Cloud's adventure a year ago. And he only came out with one individual: Yuffie Kisaragi. She always seemed like a contrast to Vincent in almost every way. She was joyful, happy and had a sense of humor. Those were things that he has never had in his life nor felt. And perhaps tonight it would be a good time to share his pain with the spirit high above.
Just for one day, he wanted to be a happy person.
He made his wish.
The night had always been this clear before.
Yuffie sat herself comfortable on one of the Wuatinese statues high in the mountains, overseeing the houses and temples where her people lived. She gazed drowsily at the bright white specks in the endless blue ocean up high. She smiled and leaned back, letting the wind blow on her cool body, letting go of all stresses and just having a good time while the dark sky lasted. She slowly shut her eyes, hoping that she could drift off into her fantasies.
And she saw it.
Her eyes flew open as she caught sight of something glowing within those stars. It came out and drew closer to her, the light shone brighter and unleashed its power among the whole of Wutai.
There came the wishing star.
It all reminded Yuffie of the lone gunslinger of whom she first met a year ago. His name was Vincent Valentine. Somebody who seemed unusual to the many other people she had known. An outsider that seems to be living in a world where nobody likes to accept him as he is. The ninja girl almost felt sorry for the poor man, after having lost his love, and being locked up in an empty coffin for thirty years. How much more punishment could he take? Vincent had the ability to change his form, and perhaps he could change his heart.
If only she could see, just for one day.
She made her wish.
Night came. The two fell asleep in bed.
Author's Note: Sorry if this is too short. I'll get the second part up soon. Can any of you guess what's going to happen? Well, if you're stuck, it doesn't matter. But what you think so far?
