Hojo says, "Good night Jessie... and hello Vincent"

Jessie says, "'night.."

Jessie walks over to the check-out desk

Hojo leaves for the night

Jessie signs out. walks over to Vincent. gives him the keys to everyone's rooms. heads for the door

Vincent Valentine says, "thanks. see ya"

Jessie says, "Sure...bye"

Jessie walks out

Vincent Valentine goes over to Rufus and Cloud to make sure they're ok

Rufus Shinra is shivering in his sleep... though Cloud is not waking for some reason

Sephiroth wakes up and gets off his bed. looks at the door.. and knows it's locked. starts to throw himself into it.. trying to open it

Vincent Valentine goes up to check on sephiroth and Zack since he sees Rufus and Cloud are doing ok

Sephiroth is still hurling himself into the padded door

Vincent Valentine hears someone banging on the door

Vincent Valentine says, "hmmm.."

Vincent Valentine gets out the keys and gets the right one. opens up the door

Vincent Valentine says, "what's going on in here?"

sephiroth stumbles out.. a bandage around one arm

sephiroth says, "thanks"

Vincent Valentine looks at Sephiroth

sephiroth raps his arms around Vincent and kisses him deeply

Vincent Valentine struggles away

Vincent Valentine says, "ack!!"

sephiroth says, "Aww"

Vincent Valentine pushes Seph back into the padded cell

Sephiroth frowns

Vincent Valentine closes the door and pulls out his key

Sephiroth says, "hey.. mother says I need to get out of this cell... time to find cutie"

Vincent Valentine locks the door. spits

Vincent Valentine says, "yeach"

Sephiroth bangs himself into the door again

Sephiroth says, "mother doesn't like you..."

Vincent Valentine sits by the door

Vincent Valentine says, "why cant the owner buy us tazers..."

Sephiroth pulls the bandage off his arm and plays with the cut he gave himself earlier ... trying to make it bleed again. succeeds and stares transfixed by his own blood

Vincent Valentine wipes his mouth and stands up

Vincent Valentine says, "ick. what a freak.."

sephiroth is oblivious to the world around him as he watches the blood. goes back to his bed and goes back to sleep

Flea looks on the door to the house-looking hospital.. wondering if he should ask to see Vincent. decides to and knocks on the front door

Vincent Valentine hears the door. runs over to it and opens it up

Vincent Valentine says, "yes?"

Flea says, "hello"

Vincent Valentine sees Flea and smiles

Flea smiles a little

Vincent Valentine says, "hey"

Flea says, "hello. anything exciting going on in your job tonight?"

Vincent Valentine says, "well, if being kissed deeply by a male rapist is exciting I guess so.."

Vincent Valentine grins a little at Flea

Flea says, "ack... didn't know there was one here"

Flea grins back

Vincent Valentine says, "yeah"

Vincent Valentine says, "he keeps on talking about his mother..."

Flea says, "oh.. my mom died when I was 5"

Flea frowns a little at the bad memory

Vincent Valentine says, "oh um, sorry to hear that. um ,would you like to come in? its kind of boring here.."

Flea says, "ok"

Flea walks in and looks around again

Flea says, "no one in this room today.. they all asleep?"

Vincent Valentine steps back in behind Flea

Alena Sadiren looks up

Vincent Valentine says, "well, at least Cloud, Zack, and Rufus are"

Alena Sadiren says, "Not asleep, but almost.."

Flea says, "who?"

Flea looks at Alena

Alena Sadiren says, "I'm just a nurse that works here.."

Flea says, "oh"

Vincent Valentine looks to Alena also

Flea says, "Hi, I'm Flea.. a great Mage from far away"

Vincent Valentine says, "oh, hello"

Alena Sadiren says, "Hi"

Flea looks at Vincent

Flea says, "shall we sit down or is there something you have to do right now?"

Vincent Valentine says, "well I guess the others are ok"

Flea says, "alright"

Flea sits down on the couch

Vincent Valentine says, "oh wait, I haven't checked on Cid"

Flea says, "Cid? who's that?"

Vincent Valentine says, "just a mental patient"

Flea says, "What's his story?"

Vincent Valentine walks over to Cid's room

Vincent Valentine says, "well..."

Flea says, "oh... and what about that Rapist?"

Flea walks after him

Vincent Valentine says, "um I don't know why he's here..."

Vincent Valentine stops

Flea says, "what about the Rapist then?"

Vincent Valentine says, "heck I don't even know where he is. I guess the rapist is here for raping and being insane. He's always saying stuff like mother doesn't like you..."

Flea says, "hmmm... why?"

Vincent Valentine says, "I don't know, he's just insane"

Flea says, "ok"

Vincent Valentine says, "I can show you if you'd like..."

Flea says, "alright"

Flea smiles a little

Vincent Valentine leads Flea over to a padded sell

Flea looks in on the second floor room

Flea says, "he's sleeping"

Vincent Valentine says, "he is?"

Flea says, "and his right arm is bleeding"

Vincent Valentine says, "yeah... he bleeds himself too..."

Flea says, "oh"

Flea pulls his cloak tightly around himself

Vincent Valentine says, "how'd he do that anyway?"

Flea says, "I have no idea. Want to go back and sit down?"

Vincent Valentine says, "yeah, sure why not"

Flea says, "alright"

Flea goes back to the couch

Vincent Valentine walks down the stairs and into the rec. room

Flea has been following Vincent

Vincent Valentine sits down

Flea sits down next to him

Flea says, "You know... I'm pleased I wound up in this city and found this place"

Vincent Valentine says, "really? Why? It's just a nut house..."

flea looks at Vincent

flea says, "but there is you here"

Vincent Valentine smiles

flea smiles as well

flea says, "This is the best time I've ever had actually"

Vincent Valentine says, "thanks.. makes me feel better"

flea says, "you're welcome cause it's true. I've been fighting for most of my life... now I'm not and I'm happy and finally have some one to talk to"

Vincent Valentine says, "oh, im a pretty good fighter. im pretty good at using materia too."

flea says, "Materia?"

Vincent Valentine says, "yeah, a shortcut to magic I guess..."

Vincent Valentine shows Flea some of his materia

flea says, "how interesting.. they are pretty"

Vincent Valentine says, "yeah, aren't they?"

flea smiles and plays with one

flea says, "I like power and beauty.... but of course... power is beauty"

flea grins

flea says, "I'm powerful.. that's why I'm beautiful"

Vincent Valentine says, "careful not to accidentally set one off.. you might start a fire. you sure are"

Vincent Valentine grins a bit

flea hands it to him and grins back

flea says, "thank you"

Vincent Valentine puts the materia back in his pocket

flea waves his hands and grins... power flowing around them. watches the color dance a few feet in front of them

flea says, "Rainbow storm!"

Vincent Valentine says, "wow"

flea says, "don't touch.. you'll be poisoned"

Vincent Valentine says, "do you think you could teach me how to do that kind of stuff?"

flea says, "I'm not sure... I was sort of born with it"

Vincent Valentine says, "oh.."

flea says, "want to see some more cool tricks?"

Vincent Valentine says, "sure"

flea stands up and transforms into a little black bat

Cloud Strife snores softly

Vincent Valentine looks at the bat

Vincent Valentine says, "ack"

Rufus Shinra shifts in his sleep.. whimpering

Flea changes back

Cloud Strife wakes up and pokes Rufus

Flea says, "I know.. that form not cute but good for spying"

Vincent Valentine says, "yeah"

Rufus Shinra sniffles and mumbles in his sleep

Cloud Strife crawls out of his den.. leaving Rufus to himself

Rufus Shinra says, "please.... no more.... don't hurt me any more"

Rufus Shinra sniffles... curing up.. still asleep

Flea smiles

Cloud Strife . o O ( Cant help him... I getting out )

flea says, "it's just some of my power"

Vincent Valentine says, "wow"

Cloud Strife stands up and leaves his room. sets about picking the lock on the front door

flea sees Cloud

flea says, "hey.. what are you doing?"

Cloud Strife ignores Flea... and keeps working

Rufus Shinra wakes up... feeling sad because Cloud is not there

Rufus Shinra . o O ( Cloud doesn't want me it seems... he keeps leaving me... )

Rufus Shinra wishes Cloud hadn't stolen his drugs

Cloud Strife hears a satisfying click as the lock springs open.... and opens the door

flea looks to Vincent. gets up and goes over to Cloud

Vincent Valentine walks over to Cloud

Vincent Valentine says, "Ahem"

Flea says, "hey now.. where are you going?"

Cloud Strife slips the pick in his pocket and gestures to the door

Cloud Strife says, "leaving...."

Rufus Shinra gets out of Cloud's room and goes to his room... to search for his hidden stash

Flea says, "why?"

Vincent Valentine says, "no your not.."

Cloud Strife says, "hate it here..."

Flea says, "why?"

Vincent Valentine says, "too bad"

Cloud Strife says, "you don't own me..."

flea says, "but this is where you are supposed to be"

Cloud Strife says, "why?"

Rufus Shinra moves his bed and opens the loose panel in the floor

flea says, "because.. well... What about Rufus?"

Cloud Strife says, "cant help him"

Rufus Shinra feels overcome with despair. pulls his stash of green and red pills out of the floor panel and thinks he'll OD if he takes all of them at once

Cloud Strife says, "want to go home..."

Flea says, "have you tried to help him?"

Vincent Valentine says, "I told you, you aren't going anywhere..."

Cloud Strife says, "don't know how to help"

Rufus Shinra wonders where he can get scotch to wash it down with

Cloud Strife aims a well placed punch at Vincent's head

flea says, "have you tried talking to him?"

Vincent Valentine says, "hey what are you doing?"

Cloud Strife says, "talk?"

Rufus Shinra slips the pills into one pocket and goes off in search of the alcohol he needs to wash them down with

flea says, "yes... find out what's wrong with him"

Cloud Strife says, "he wants to die...."

flea says, "why?"

Cloud Strife says, "Why does it matter? he does not want to live... for me...."

Rufus Shinra goes into the kitchen and looks around in the fridge

flea says, "how do you know that?"

Cloud Strife says, "he keeps trying"

flea says, "trying?"

Cloud Strife says, "to die.. he keeps taking chemicals"

flea says, "Cloud... then talk to him"

Rufus Shinra finds a half full bottle of whiskey in the back.. and decides it's enough

Cloud Strife says, "talk....."

Rufus Shinra drops all the pills down into the bottle and watches them dissolve in the alcohol. carries his bottle out of the kitchen and back to his room

Cloud Strife goes to find Rufus

Rufus Shinra changes his mind and goes to Cloud's room... sitting with his back to the door. puts the bottle to his lips and starts do drink... hoping for the peace of Oblivion since Cloud does not seem to want him as much as he thought

Cloud Strife stands in the doorway and looks at Rufus. slaps the bottle out of Rufus' hand

Rufus Shinra looks up.... not having noticed Cloud entering... has drunken half of what's left

Cloud Strife says, "If you want to die then die.... you not care....."

Rufus Shinra says, "care?"

Cloud Strife bares his teeth and slaps Rufus

Rufus Shinra is getting out of it... feeling the back of his head start to buzz

Rufus Shinra says, "why did you do that?"

Cloud Strife says, "Every time I leave have to slap bottle out of your mouth when I Come back"

Rufus Shinra feels he pain in his head increase. blinks... his head swaying a little

Rufus Shinra says, "why you leave?"

Cloud Strife says, "you were having a bad dream... you said you wanted to die if you dreamed that way..... so die...."

Rufus Shinra says, "not what I meant. no nightmares end right away.... "

Rufus Shinra feels very lightheaded as the effects of the drugs and whiskey set in

Cloud Strife sits on the floor and watches Rufus

Rufus Shinra says, "I think I'm going into drug shock now...."

Rufus Shinra leans on Cloud

Cloud Strife puts an arm around Rufus

Cloud Strife says, "you leave me now?"

Rufus Shinra says, "maybe. don't really want to leave you... but... you keep on walking off on me when I need you"

Cloud Strife says, "You keep hurting yourself.... and me"

Rufus Shinra says, "how do I hurt you?"

Rufus Shinra closes his eyes... his body twitching from the drug mix

Cloud Strife says, "seeing you like this......."

Rufus Shinra says, "Then why do you walk away when I most need you?"

Cloud Strife says, "I don't know how to help you"

Cloud Strife sighs

Rufus Shinra trembles some more.... going into a drug shock

Cloud Strife says, "You are depending on me... a mentally unstable person for support... you need someone who can really love you"

Rufus Shinra says, "no... I wanted.... you"

Cloud Strife sniffles

Rufus Shinra coughs

Cloud Strife whimpers

Cloud Strife cradles Rufus against his chest....

Rufus Shinra stops breathing all together... his heart beat dropping

Alena Sadiren runs over to the room

Alena Sadiren says, "oh shit! Where'd Vincent go?..."

Alena Sadiren opens the door and runs in

Rufus Shinra isn't breathing.. and is cradled to Cloud's chest

Cloud Strife growls at the intruder

Alena Sadiren says, "......"

Rufus Shinra's bottle of Whiskey with dissolved red and green pills in it lays on the floor... some of it's contains drained. starts turning pale as his heart beat stops

Alena Sadiren says, "Uh...Cloud... I need to help your friend...please.."

Cloud Strife lays Rufus on the ground and backs away... watching Alena suspiciously

Alena Sadiren kneels by Rufus and does CPR on him. hopes Cloud doesn't attack her...

Rufus Shinra coughs as his lungs fill with air... and his heart starts to beat slowly again

Cloud Strife growls menacingly.....

Rufus Shinra breathes slowly.... his chest rising and falling slowly

Cloud Strife moves back to Rufus and looks at him

Alena Sadiren says, "Hey, I just saved your friend's life, don't growl at me"

Cloud Strife narrows his eyes

Alena Sadiren steps back

Rufus Shinra is out cold.. but breathing and has his heart beating again

Cloud Strife sighs. listens to his stomach growl

Alena Sadiren will get something for Cloud to eat. runs out. comes back with a cheeseburger. hands it to Cloud

Cloud Strife eats it quietly

Rufus Shinra is still pale

Alena Sadiren takes Rufus to a separate room and locks Cloud in the other room before he has a chance to attack her. straps Rufus to a bed so he can not hurt himself

Rufus Shinra is out cold and can't protest

Cloud Strife slams against the door.... howling rage

Alena Sadiren winces

Cloud Strife beats himself against the door until he loses consciousness

Alena Sadiren says, "......."

Rufus Shinra comes to a few hours later and sniffles when he sees he's tied down

Rufus Shinra says, "no .. no....."

Rufus Shinra wants to curl up but can't

Rufus Shinra says, "No.. No.. Let me go!!!!!"

Alena Sadiren says, "........"

Rufus Shinra tries to break free of his bonds

Cloud Strife claws weakly at the door

Rufus Shinra says, "NOOOOOOOOO!!! *can be heard all over the place*"

Alena Sadiren winces

Alena Sadiren says, "Where the hell is Vincent..."

Cloud Strife picks up a chair and throws it at the door. growling

Sephiroth wakes up when he hears the scream

Alena Sadiren says, "Oh no..."

Rufus Shinra says, "LET ME GOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!"

Rufus Shinra thrashes more

Zack comes down the stairs

Zack says, "Whose screaming?"

Alena Sadiren turns and sees Zack

Sephiroth goes to the locked door and tries to open it

Alena Sadiren says, "Damnit...everyone's awake. Vincent isn't even here..."

Rufus Shinra continues to thrash

Zack knocks on Seph's door

Rufus Shinra says, "let me go!! Please... no more of this!!!"

Sephiroth says, "hey!"

Alena Sadiren says, "......"

Zack says, "Nah nah.. you cant get out"

Sephiroth says, "awww... Cutie... come on"

Cloud Strife shakes the door to his room

Alena Sadiren un-straps Rufus

Zack says, "Let you out so you can rape me?"

Alena Sadiren says, "Please... stop screaming.."

Rufus Shinra instantly curls up, shaking

Zack says, "you think Im that dumb?"

Sephiroth says, "come on Cutie... who's screaming?"

Alena Sadiren drags Zack away from Sephiroth's door. turns to Sephiroth

Alena Sadiren says, "No one was screaming, it was a bad dream, go back to sleep"

Zack says, "Bad dream?"

sephiroth says, "I'm not tired"

Rufus Shinra is curled up very tightly on the bed... shaking

Alena Sadiren shoots Sephiroth with a tranquilizer

Cloud Strife howls loudly

Alena Sadiren runs over to Cloud's room

sephiroth frowns.... wondering how she did that without opening his door

Zack makes faces at Sephiroth through the little window on the door

sephiroth passes out... feeling the blood seep from the small wound

Alena Sadiren goes in Cloud's room and gives him a tranquilizer before he attacks her

Zack says, "Wow... he's dead....."

Cloud Strife growls and keels over..... its a pretty fast acting tranq

Zack Wonders if he's gonna be tranqed as well

Alena Sadiren says, "Zack...JUST GO TO BED"

sephiroth sleeps on his floor

Zack says, "But...."

Alena Sadiren goes back over to Sephiroth's room and puts him on the bed

Rufus Shinra stays curled up in his catatonic state

Alena Sadiren says, "NO buts, Zack..."

Zack says, "Oh... okie....."

Zack goes back into his room. turns the lights on in his room and reads a book

Alena Sadiren takes all the tranquilizer needles and puts theme away after washing them. forgets why Zack is here..

Rufus Shinra comes out of it a few hours later and stumble off the bed and heads for Cloud's room

Alena Sadiren thinks he seems pretty sane...

Zack comes out of his bedroom and slides down the railing to the first floor

Rufus Shinra opens Cloud's room and walks in... kneeling by Cloud

Cloud Strife is sleeping heavily where he landed

Rufus Shinra says, "Love?"

Rufus Shinra gently shakes him

Alena Sadiren sighs, tired from running back and forth from room to room

Zack pads into the kitchen and looks around

Alena Sadiren says, "......."

Cloud Strife rolls onto his back

Alena Sadiren goes down to the kitchen to get coffee

sephiroth is still asleep

Rufus Shinra sniffles and lays down as well

Zack pokes boredly through the cabinets

Rufus Shinra says, "please wake up"

Alena Sadiren keeps an eye on Zack while she makes her coffee

Cloud Strife stretches in his sleep and lazily opens one eye

Rufus Shinra kisses Cloud's cheek. looks like he wants to cry

Zack takes out some crackers and sits at the table... starts to build little houses out of the crackers

Cloud Strife sits up and hugs Rufus

Rufus Shinra says, "you are awake"

Cloud Strife rubs his arm where he was darted

Rufus Shinra says, "why did they strap me down?"

Cloud Strife says, "you tried to die"

Zack says, "Alenaaaa.... do you have a lighter?"

Rufus Shinra says, "I know... but don't they know I can't take being strapped down?"

Alena Sadiren says, "NO! No I don't.."

Alena Sadiren eats one of the crackers

Zack says, "You killed my house"

Alena Sadiren says, "Sorry"

Cloud Strife drags Rufus into his den

Alena Sadiren takes another cracker and puts it where the other one was

Rufus Shinra leans his head on Cloud's shoulder as he's dragged in

Zack says, "Why am I here? I don't like it... Im sick of getting raped"

Alena Sadiren says, "You burn stuff.."

Zack says, "So?"

Rufus Shinra says, "Cloud?"

Cloud Strife lights up a pine scented candle and leans back with Rufus

Cloud Strife says, "Not telling anyone about candle please"

Rufus Shinra says, "alright. I was scared when I found myself tied down...."

Cloud Strife says, "I know.. I heard you yell"

Rufus Shinra says, "you heard it?"

Cloud Strife takes off his shirt and examines the bruises on his arms from slamming into the door, revealing he has some sort of brand or tattoo on his upper arm. nods

Cloud Strife says, "I tried to get out to help....."

Rufus Shinra says, "Thank you"

Cloud Strife picks up his noise box and sets it to the sounds of a gentle summer rain

Rufus Shinra looks at Cloud's bare chest

Rufus Shinra says, "where you get the tattoo from?"

Cloud Strife says, "Before I was sent here I was loaned to a crazy man in a white coat..... "

Cloud Strife shrugs

Cloud Strife says, "He belongs here more than I"

Rufus Shinra says, "white coat? sounds like Hojo... he runs the place "

Cloud Strife says, "Oh?"

Rufus Shinra says, "as long as ... *tremble* my .. *tremble* father *tremble* doesn't come here..."

Cloud Strife says, "I will protect you"

Rufus Shinra smiles

Zack eats one of the houses he built

Cloud Strife says, "Why you scared?"

Rufus Shinra says, "Cloud...."

Rufus Shinra pulls off his coat and his turtle neck... to reveal his heavily scared body

Alena Sadiren wants a few crackers

Zack looks at Alena accusingly

Alena Sadiren says, "What'd I do?"

Zack eats another of the houses

Sephiroth wakes up and tries to open the door

Cloud Strife says, "What happened? Hojo?"

Rufus Shinra says, "no"

Rufus Shinra pulls his arms around his torso.. sniffling

Cloud Strife says, "Who? I will kill!"

Rufus Shinra says, "pain...... horror.... torment... rape... beat.... locked away"

Rufus Shinra closes his eyes and sniffles

Cloud Strife has his own share of scars... from being hunted and restrained so often... as well as experimented on a bit

Cloud Strife says, "Shhh... Im here... never again"

Rufus Shinra looks up at him

Rufus Shinra says, "never?"

Cloud Strife says, "no... who did this?"

Rufus Shinra says, "father"

Zack builds some houses for Alena

Cloud Strife says, "I will kill. We go now.. I kill"

Rufus Shinra says, "kill kill...."

sephiroth bangs on his door

sephiroth says, "open up! I'm hungry!"

Rufus Shinra says, "sounds good... we need to get out though"

Cloud Strife takes the lock pick out of his pocket

Rufus Shinra smiles a little

Rufus Shinra says, "Let's get out of here"

sephiroth frowns and looks at the lock. tries to pick it but fails

sephiroth says, "I NEED FOOD.... LET ME OUT!"

Alena Sadiren says, "......"

sephiroth continues to shout

Alena Sadiren gets Sephiroth a cheeseburger and gives it to him

sephiroth gets out of his room.. munching on the burger. goes down to the kitchen and grins when he sees Zack

Rufus Shinra kisses Cloud softly

Alena Sadiren drags Seph back to his room and locks him in

sephiroth cries cause he doesn't want to be locked in his room

sephiroth says, "HEY!!! Stop that!"

sephiroth cries cause he doesn't want to be locked in his room

Zack grins

Cloud Strife fingers his tattoo

Rufus Shinra says, "we going?"

Cloud Strife nods

Cloud Strife says, "C'mon"

sephiroth says, "I don't want to be Locked up!!! mother doesn't like this!"

sephiroth bangs on his door

Rufus Shinra says, "let's go"

Cloud Strife moves to the front door and begins picking the lock

Rufus Shinra goes with Cloud

Cloud Strife says, "this might take while"

Alena Sadiren says, "Seph... If you want out... ya gotta ram your head through the door"

sephiroth says, "ok"

sephiroth rams his head through the door

Zack says, "Oh great... he's stupid enough to do it....."

Cloud Strife listens to them carrying on upstairs and hopes they don't notice their escape attempt

Alena Sadiren says, "Oh damn. Uh..."

Sephiroth knocks the door down on top of Alena and passes out... pinning her to the floor

Alena Sadiren says, "OWW! FUCK! GET OFFA ME! YOUR ALL GONNA GET ME FUCKING FIRED!!"

Cloud Strife jiggles the doorknob. growls and goes back to work

sephiroth is out cold... laying over the door

Alena Sadiren chokes, trapped under the metal door

Rufus Shinra says, "want me to help?"

Zack shoves Sephiroth around a bit

sephiroth wakes up

sephiroth says, "Oww... my head"

Sephiroth trips Zack so he falls onto Seph's chest

Cloud Strife Shakes his head and continues to work

Sephiroth says, "yummy! it's Cutie!"

Sephiroth raps his arms around him and kisses him deeply

Zack says, "Erk!! We're squishing the nice lady S... Mrph!"

Alena Sadiren can't breathe under the weight

sephiroth rolls around with Zack... back into his room

Alena Sadiren groans

Sephiroth pins Zack to the floor and starts kissing him roughly over and over

Zack says, "Get the fuck off!"

Cloud Strife hears the lock click and grins

Alena Sadiren says, "....get...door....."

Alena Sadiren passes out from lack of air

sephiroth takes off Zack's clothing. takes off his own clothing

Zack says, "HELP!!!"

sephiroth puts himself into Zack and kisses him as well

Zack knees Sephiroth

sephiroth pulls out again

Rufus Shinra says, "any luck love?"

Cloud Strife hears the lock click and grins

Sephiroth says, "hey... watch it!"

Zack crawls away from Sephiroth

Sephiroth grabs Zack and pins him on his belly. pushes himself into him again... pressing his shoulders down

Zack cries out

Zack says, "Get off!"

sephiroth thrusts into him

Zack digs his nails into the floor and tries to pull away

Cloud Strife wiggles the doorknob and the door swings open

sephiroth keeps Zack pinned as he thrusts

Rufus Shinra smiles

Rufus Shinra says, "Yeah!"

Rufus Shinra puts his arms around Cloud

Jessie walks in and looks around

Cloud Strife gestures to the open door

Jessie says, "Holy..."

Rufus Shinra says, "uh oh... it's Jessie!"

Sephiroth continues to rape Zack up on the second floor

Zack whines and snivels....

Jessie says, "Right... it's Jessie and you better get back in your room before I get pissed"

Cloud Strife looks at the open door

Rufus Shinra says, "we want to get out of here"

Jessie blocks the open door

Jessie says, "No way"

Sephiroth finishes off inside Zack and pulls out of him

Jessie drags Cloud and Rufus back to their rooms, and locks the doors

Rufus Shinra sniffles cause he's been parted from Cloud

Jessie runs over to Sephiroth's room and drags him away from Zack and locks Sephiroth's door

Zack curls into a ball and cries

Jessie says, "Wait a min...door?"

Jessie looks down

Jessie says, "ACK"

Rufus Shinra looks at the loose floor panel and frowns... seeing that he used up his entire stash of drugs

Alena Sadiren coughs

Jessie says, "FUCK *lifts the door up for Alena to get out*"

Sephiroth walks back out of the room... naked still

Alena Sadiren crawls out

Zack creeps over to the stairs and rolls down them

Jessie drags Sephiroth to an unoccupied room. locks him in there

Cloud Strife paces

Rufus Shinra curls up in the corner of his room.... wishing he had drugs still

Jessie takes Alena to a couch and rests her there

Rufus Shinra sniffles.... feeling intense despair

Alena Sadiren can breathe

Alena Sadiren says, "t..thanks.."

Jessie nods

Jessie says, "Sure"

Sephiroth looks around the new room

Jessie helps Zack back to his room

Cloud Strife paces continuously.... stopping now and then to pry at the door

Zack gets into the shower and sits there.... letting the water pelt him

Alena Sadiren deserves a raise

Rufus Shinra wants to cry.. but can't. leans his head into his arms... wishing he was dead

Jessie sighs and thinks. takes Rufus to Cloud's room

Cloud Strife picks up the candle he has lit.... and shoves some blankets towards the door. hides the candle

Rufus Shinra smiles as he's put in Cloud's room and hugs him

Jessie doesn't even get a "Thanks. Locks the door

Cloud Strife shoves the blanket up against the door.... and lights the candle again

Rufus Shinra hugs him in a death grip

Sephiroth wonders where he is

Cloud Strife drops the candle in the blanket and pulls Rufus to the back of the room

Rufus Shinra says, "what you doing?"

Cloud Strife pulls Rufus down and waits

Jessie turns

Jessie says, "...?"

Sephiroth picks up the bed and tosses it at the door

Zack scrubs at himself..... sobbing heavily

Sephiroth leaves the room... heading for the showers

Alena Sadiren wishes she could of helped Zack

Rufus Shinra kisses Cloud's cheek

Cloud Strife ties a piece of cloth around Rufus's face... so he can breathe if it gets too bad

Sephiroth leans in the door to the shower... still naked

Alena Sadiren saw Seph go in the shower

Zack sniffles

Sephiroth says, "hi cutie"

Zack says, "get away!!"

Alena Sadiren struggles and gets up off the couch and heads for the showers

Rufus Shinra says, "love?"

Sephiroth says, "why?"

Sephiroth goes to Zack

Cloud Strife wonders if he should douse the fire

Alena Sadiren grabs Sephiroth and drags him out of the shower

Zack cowers in the back of the shower

Sephiroth whines cause he wanted Zack some more

Zack says, "why do I gotta be here....and put up with this?"

Rufus Shinra says, "What are you doing?"

Alena Sadiren believes Zack is the second person here that is sane, before Jessie came

Zack grabs a towel and wraps it around himself.... then goes back to his bedroom. dresses and curls up on his side to stare off into space

Rufus Shinra coughs as he breathes in the smoke

Cloud Strife says, "hope they smell the smoke..... I put out soon..."

Jessie unlocks Cloud and Rufus' door. opens it

Rufus Shinra passes out from the smoke

Cloud Strife slings Rufus over his shoulder and rushes the door

Jessie says, "Shit!!"

sephiroth sighs and sits in the corner of the padded room

Jessie blocks

Cloud Strife growls and punches at Jessie

Jessie says, "Ow"

Jessie falls back. grabs at Cloud's ankle

Cloud Strife is nearly tripped....

Rufus Shinra gets a lung full of smoke from being in the door frame. coughs violently

Cloud Strife kicks at Jessie's hand and tries to head for the front door

Alena Sadiren runs and blocks the front door, being downstairs

Cloud Strife growls at Alena

Jessie chases Cloud

Alena Sadiren kicks Cloud

Rufus Shinra throws up over Cloud's shoulder... some of it getting on Cloud's back

Cloud Strife grimaces. sets Rufus down and puts up his fists

Rufus Shinra starts to choke from the vomit stuck in his throat

sephiroth curls up and falls asleep

Cloud Strife eyes the person blocking his way

Jessie punches Cloud from behind

Alena Sadiren cast Pyro on Cloud

Cloud Strife blinks

Rufus Shinra stops breathing cause of the blocked passage in his throat

Cloud Strife drops to his knees in pain and highly confused by the attack from both sides

Alena Sadiren performs CPR on Rufus again

Cloud Strife dazedly tries to bite Alena

Jessie pulls Cloud away

Cloud Strife struggles

Rufus Shinra starts breathing again... but stops when he throws up a second time

Alena Sadiren does CRP on Rufus yet again... turns Rufus on his side

Cloud Strife weakly tries to bite Jessie

Jessie gives Cloud a tranquilizer

Cloud Strife fights a bit more before falling asleep. growls in his sleep

Rufus Shinra throws up a few more times

Alena Sadiren says, "Hey Jessie.."

Jessie says, "Huh?"

Alena Sadiren says, "I've had enough for tonight... I'm outta here.."

Jessie says, "Ok... bye"

Alena Sadiren signs out and leaves

Jessie takes Cloud and Rufus back to their rooms. locks the door. thinks they should open a window to help clear the rest of the smoke out..

Rufus Shinra is very sick... though no one seems to notice

Cloud Strife is unconscious.. cant see anything

Rufus Shinra is in his room... on his bed... away from Cloud... out cold

Jessie unlocks the door and walks back in to open the window. looks at Cloud and Rufus. notices Rufus looks pale. Walks out again.

Rufus Shinra shivers slightly in his sleep.. still has his face coated in vomit

Cloud Strife is on the floor.. twitching in his sleep. wakes up and sits up groggily. gets up and weebles to the bed...

Rufus Shinra is very pale and trembling in his sleep

Cloud Strife is worried by Rufus' appearance

Cloud Strife goes into the bathroom and gets some towels ... wetting one... then returns to Rufus and starts to clean him up. croons worriedly as he works... noting Rufus' paleness

Cloud Strife . o O ( Whenever I try to get away... I hurt him.... no more )

Rufus Shinra trembles

Cloud Strife kisses Rufus' forehead

Rufus Shinra is very sick from all the drugs, booze, and the smoke

Cloud Strife removes his shirt and throws it in the laundry... then makes sure Rufus is comfortable

Rufus Shinra is still topless from earlier

Cloud Strife pulls a warm blanket around Rufus' shoulders... then sits beside him

Cloud Strife says, "I make you sick.... "

Cloud Strife shakes Rufus gently

Rufus Shinra whimpers softly. coughs

Cloud Strife says, "me make you sick"

Rufus Shinra says, "y-o-u?"

Cloud Strife says, "smoke make you sick"

Rufus Shinra says, "me been sick"

Cloud Strife says, "I not help any"

Rufus Shinra says, "what we do then?"

Rufus Shinra reaches out for Cloud's hand

Cloud Strife says, "You hate Cloud"

Rufus Shinra says, "hate?"

Cloud Strife says, "yes.. you hate..."

Rufus Shinra says, "why?"

Cloud Strife says, "want you to hate.... I only hurt you"

Rufus Shinra coughs.. thinking he's going to throw up again

Rufus Shinra says, "but... I love you"

Cloud Strife rolls Rufus onto his side

Cloud Strife says, "I love too... but all I do is hurt"

Rufus Shinra frowns... feeling despair fill him again as Cloud says that

Cloud Strife rubs Rufus' back gently

Rufus Shinra says, "me not want to hate you"

Cloud Strife says, "please do... me hurt"

Rufus Shinra says, "if I hate you... then kill me"

Cloud Strife says, "Cant.... love you"

Rufus Shinra throws up again

Rufus Shinra says, "you might not need to kill me.... I feel so sick.... I might be dying"

Cloud Strife says, "Please don't....."

Rufus Shinra rolls over to face Cloud

Cloud Strife sighs and closes his eyes

Rufus Shinra reaches his hand out to him. closes his eyes and coughs violently

Cloud Strife takes Rufus' hand

Rufus Shinra pulls Cloud close to him

Cloud Strife hugs Rufus tightly

Rufus Shinra slips his arms weekly around Cloud

Rufus Shinra says, "love?"

Cloud Strife sniffles

Rufus Shinra says, "what are you thinking?"

Rufus Shinra throws up again... this time on Cloud

Rufus Shinra says, "sorry"

Cloud Strife says, "Its okay... I don't want to lose you"

Rufus Shinra pulls him close... resting his head on Cloud's clean shoulder

Cloud Strife says, "I'll be all alone.... here"

Rufus Shinra says, "I'm sorry... I don't want you to be alone"

Rufus Shinra closes his eyes. slips into a deep coma

Cloud Strife sniffles

Cloud Strife says, "don't go...."

Rufus Shinra is leaning heavily on Cloud's shoulder

Cloud Strife cradles Rufus as best he can

Rufus Shinra's heart rate skyrockets as well as his breathing.. but he remains in a coma

Cloud Strife says, "please not leave..... "

Cloud Strife cries softly

Rufus Shinra spasms. his breathing stops

Cloud Strife sniffles

Cloud Strife says, "You leave me......."

Cloud Strife shakes Rufus

Rufus Shinra does not respond

Cloud Strife begins to sob

Cloud Strife says, "no...no..... you left... me... alone..... why?"

Cloud Strife fumbles with Rufus' hands... sniffles

Cloud Strife says, "you go...."

Cloud Strife gets off of the bed and looks at Rufus's still form

Rufus Shinra's spirit puts his arms around Cloud... having been standing behind him for a minute now

Rufus Shinra says, "I'm still here *wonders if Cloud can hear him at all... or if he's just there*"

Cloud Strife goes into the bathroom of the room and cleans the vomit off of himself

Rufus Shinra sighs... hoping Cloud will be able to feel him some time... not wanting to leave Cloud

Cloud Strife goes back into the room and sits in a corner.... staring blankly into space

Rufus Shinra tries not to look at his own body and goes to sit next to Cloud

Cloud Strife rocks back and forth... whimpering softly

Rufus Shinra says, "Cloud... I gave up my peaceful oblivion to stay here with you.... I need you to hear me...."

Cloud Strife puts his head in his hands and mumbles about how he can still hear Rufus' voice

Rufus Shinra waves his spiritual hand in front of Cloud

Rufus Shinra says, "you can hear me?"

Cloud Strife says, "You're dead..... just imagining"

Rufus Shinra says, "you can hear me!"

Rufus Shinra tries to poke Cloud

Cloud Strife squinches up tighter

Rufus Shinra says, "Cloud... please... I'm here for you"

Cloud Strife says, "I do belong here...."

Rufus Shinra says, "why?"

Cloud Strife says, "Hearing.. things... feeling things... that aren't there... talking.... to a dead voice"

Rufus Shinra says, "But I am here"

Rufus Shinra takes his hand softly

Cloud Strife looks up

Cloud Strife says, "you're dead"

Rufus Shinra says, "I know... but I'm still here"

Cloud Strife says, "how?"

Rufus Shinra says, "Because I didn't want to leave you.. but couldn't do anything about my body's frailties"

Cloud Strife says, "I'm still insane... you are dead"

Rufus Shinra says, "I know"

Rufus Shinra puts his arms around Cloud

Cloud Strife says, "I feel you"

Rufus Shinra says, "can you see me?"

Cloud Strife says, "hazy....."

Rufus Shinra kisses Cloud's neck softly

Cloud Strife says, "feels good...."

Cloud Strife relaxes

Cloud Strife says, "I want to avenge you........"

Rufus Shinra kisses Cloud's cheek

Rufus Shinra says, "you mean kill my father?"

Cloud Strife says, "yes. then I want to go home... If I live"

Rufus Shinra says, "That's the other reason I cannot rest.... I want him to die... and now I can see what happens to the world cause I'm dead"

Rufus Shinra chuckles to himself

Rufus Shinra says, "that is.. if anyone outside this place ever finds out"

Cloud Strife says, "I will kill him"

Rufus Shinra nuzzles his neck

Rufus Shinra says, "thank you"

Cloud Strife reaches out and feels the strangely solid haze.. which is beginning to take on a more definite form

Rufus Shinra smiles

Cloud Strife says, "What am I touching?"

Rufus Shinra says, "me"

Cloud Strife moves his hand around

Rufus Shinra places one hand to Cloud's hand

Cloud Strife tries to focus his eyes better

Rufus Shinra moves Cloud's hand along his chest

Cloud Strife says, "You're there....."

Cloud Strife blinks

Rufus Shinra says, "yes... I'm here"

Cloud Strife says, "kiss me? Can you ?"

Rufus Shinra kisses Cloud's hand

Rufus Shinra says, "yes"

Rufus Shinra leans forward and kisses his lips softly

Cloud Strife closes his eyes

Rufus Shinra says, "no need to be sad my love... I'm still here... not gone... and no one can hurt me any more"

Cloud Strife says, "I don't want to be in here....."

Rufus Shinra says, "You'll have to call on some one to get the body out. I doubt they will be able to hear or see me"

Hana unlocks the door and enters the room to check on Cloud and Rufus

Rufus Shinra says, "you could barely...."

Hana peers at Cloud in the corner... then checks on the rather still form on the bed

Hana says, "oh my..."

Hana feels for a pulse

Hana says, "This is not good....."

Rufus Shinra looks at Hana... knowing she can't see him... and tries not to look at his own body

Hana says, "how long has he been dead?"

Cloud Strife remains silent

Hana sighs

Rufus Shinra says, "I suppose you should tell her.... how long has it been any way?"

Cloud Strife says, "about a half hour...."

Rufus Shinra says, "really? hmmm"

Hana says, "too late to try and save him then.... suppose I ought to report this... I'm going to get fired.. this happened on my shift.... I suppose I can pin the blame on you though......"

Rufus Shinra says, "Aww.. you guess revived me several times just today"

Hana says, "Hmm.. now how to work this? "

Rufus Shinra says, "Is she even gonna ask how I died?"

Cloud Strife shrugs and watches

Hana says, "I can tell the director that you smothered him..... "

Rufus Shinra kisses Cloud's cheek and leans against him

Rufus Shinra says, "He did not! Cloud... we got to get you out of here..."

Cloud Strife says, "doors open...."

Rufus Shinra stands up

Rufus Shinra says, "come on then"

Hana is too busy wondering what to do about Rufus to worry about Cloud

Cloud Strife stands up and looks to Rufus

Rufus Shinra holds his hand out to Cloud

Cloud Strife takes Rufus' hand

Rufus Shinra pulls Cloud out the door... past Hana

Cloud Strife follows Rufus quietly

Rufus Shinra heads out for the door

Cloud Strife says, "is it unlocked?"

Rufus Shinra says, "don't know. try it"

Cloud Strife jiggles the knob

Rufus Shinra says, "well?"

Cloud Strife kicks the door and it swings open

Rufus Shinra smiles

Cloud Strife says, "lets go.... where to?"

Rufus Shinra says, "come on then... you can run now since you don't need to carry me. we need to get to Midgar... seeing that we are in Junon"

Cloud Strife blinks in the sunlight... and looks around

Cloud Strife says, "point me the way"

Rufus Shinra points to the outside of the city

Cloud Strife is exhilarated by the somewhat fresh air and warm sun

Cloud Strife says, "Alright"

Cloud Strife begins to jog towards the direction Rufus pointed out

Rufus Shinra follows Cloud

Rufus Shinra says, "you can rest love"

Cloud Strife looks around

Cloud Strife says, "Trees....."

Rufus Shinra says, "yes. what you love"

Cloud Strife smiles. slumps against the trunk of a tree

Rufus Shinra sits next to him

Cloud Strife says, "you will still be here?"

Rufus Shinra says, "yes. I'm staying with you for as long as you want"

Cloud Strife says, "Forever? "

Rufus Shinra says, "Forever"

Rufus Shinra smiles and holds Cloud who falls asleep in his arms
