Rufus Shinra watches people from his dark ally in Midgar

Zack walks along... whistling to himself

Rufus Shinra grins as he sees Zack and steps out of the Ally... dressed in all white but for his black turtleneck under his suit coat

Zack yawns and steps around Rufus

Zack says, "pardon..."

Rufus Shinra says, "excuse me... I was wondering...."

Zack stops

Zack says, "hmm?"

Rufus Shinra says, "well... I was wondering if you wanted to make some money"

Zack says, "How so?"

Rufus Shinra leans against the wall

Rufus Shinra says, "you seem to be a rather interesting person"

Zack says, "uh huh"

Zack yawns again... and fiddles with one of his gauntlets

Rufus Shinra says, "have you had any schooling?"

Zack says, "nope"

Rufus Shinra says, "want to get some?"

Rufus Shinra looks Zack over. Goes closer to him

Zack says, "I guess... it might be interesting"

Rufus Shinra says, "You'll need money for that. Would you like some?"

Zack says, "Well how?"

Rufus Shinra says, "follow me"

Zack says, "Okie I guess"

Rufus Shinra heads back for the ally and waits for Zack to come with him

Zack follows the man quietly.... Fingers ready to draw his sword should he need it

Rufus Shinra opens a door in the back and gestures for Zack to go first

Zack peers into the door

Zack says, "You gonna kill me or something? I warn you Im a trained fighter"

Zack enters the door.... Keeping himself aware of his surroundings

Rufus Shinra says, "trained by who?"

Rufus Shinra moves after Zack... shutting the door behind him

Zack says, "The best...."

Rufus Shinra says, "Sephiroth?"

Zack nods

Rufus Shinra chuckles

Rufus Shinra says, "and how was that?"

Rufus Shinra gets into the room at the bottom of the

Zack says, "How was it? He beat me to a pulp daily until I learned"

Rufus Shinra says, "sounds like Sephy all right.... Hehehehe"

Rufus Shinra sits down on the bed

Rufus Shinra says, "I grew up with him... he's a year younger"

Zack watches the man curiously

Zack says, "Why have you lead me down here?"

Rufus Shinra says, "Well"

Rufus Shinra looks at him. Folds his arms

Zack taps his foot on the floor

Rufus Shinra says, "impatient?"

Zack says, "What is it you want?"

Rufus Shinra says, "do you have any clue?"

Zack says, "Not one bit"

Rufus Shinra says, "Really? Come on"

Zack says, "I don't like games"

Rufus Shinra waves his finger for him to come to him

Zack blinks and walks to Rufus

Rufus Shinra pats the bed

Rufus Shinra says, "sit"

Zack sits down

Zack says, "What has this got to do with anything? What the hell do you want?"

Rufus Shinra says, "You trained with Sephiroth? And what do I want? Anything"

Rufus Shinra looks Zack over again

Zack says, "Yes I trained with Sephiroth..."

Rufus Shinra says, "He's my half brother"

Zack says, "and so?"

Rufus Shinra says, "I'm a year older then him... we shared a mother"

Zack says, "Point being?"

Zack Gets up

Zack says, "Look... tell me what you wanted to say so I can get the hell outta here"

Rufus Shinra says, "You want to leave?"

Zack says, "You are boring me and I really don't know what you are getting at"

Rufus Shinra says, "awww darn... no fun after all"

Zack says, "What's that supposed to mean?"

Rufus Shinra says, "You don't like my company. What did my brother teach you any way?"

Zack says, "Taught me how to fight... and.... how to submit"

Rufus Shinra grins as he hears that part

Rufus Shinra says, "heh.... Really?"

Zack says, "yes...."

Rufus Shinra says, "Come back over here then"

Zack frowns and walks back to Rufus

Rufus Shinra touches the side of Zack's arm

Zack shivers

Rufus Shinra says, "You cold?"

Zack knows what Rufus is up to now

Zack says, "no..."

Rufus Shinra places his hand on Zack's arm

Zack says, "you have to ... defeat me in combat before I will submit to you..."

Rufus Shinra says, "fine... sounds like fun. Sephy and I trained together"

Rufus Shinra gets up

Zack says, "hand to hand?"

Rufus Shinra says, "sure"

Zack un-straps his sword and sets it on the bed. puts up his fists... imagining this will be an easy battle with such a weak looking opponent

Rufus Shinra puts up his fists as well

Zack waits for Rufus to make the first move

Rufus Shinra is waiting for the same actually

Zack watches Rufus intently... then attacks.... bringing a fist down hard.. aiming for his head

Rufus Shinra snaps his head to one side and draws his hand up.. catching the fist and twisting the arm... though not breaking it

Zack says, "Ai!!"

Rufus Shinra says, "am I beating you yet?"

Zack tries to use his other arm to pummel Rufus

Rufus Shinra blocks it with his other hand.. then catches Zack's other wrist

Zack growls

Rufus Shinra says, "you finished yet?"

Rufus Shinra lets go of his wrists

Zack lowers his eyes

Rufus Shinra flicks his hair back

Zack sinks to his knees

Zack says, "Use me as you see fit...."

Rufus Shinra moves Zack's sword off the bed

Rufus Shinra says, "get on the bed then"

Zack gets onto the bed ..... looking quite forlorn

Rufus Shinra gets on the bed next to him and removes his coat. slips off his turtleneck... revealing aged scars over his chest and back

Zack shivers and looks away from Rufus

Rufus Shinra puts his hand to Zack's face and turns his head to look at him

Rufus Shinra says, "why did you look away?"

Zack says, "your.... body.... the scars"

Rufus Shinra says, "so?"

Zack looks away again

Rufus Shinra pulls on Zack's shirt

Zack closes his eyes

Rufus Shinra pulls it off and notes Sephiroth's brand

Rufus Shinra says, "hmmm.... he's still doing this... Do you know if he still sews?"

Zack says, "Everyone who survives.... bears this mark. Yes... he does"

Rufus Shinra says, "and cooks too?"

Zack nods

Rufus Shinra says, "he used to be the cook around home... no one else wanted the job"

Zack says, "One benefit of being a pupil... he cooks good..."

Rufus Shinra says, "Very.. I miss it"

Zack says, "you two... close?"

Rufus Shinra says, "we used to spar on days that I was not bed ridden"

Zack says, "you're one strong assed son of a bitch"

Rufus Shinra says, "If I wasn't I'd be dead"

Rufus Shinra runs his fingers gently over Zack's chest

Zack closes his eyes and grimaces

Zack . o O ( Great... Im beholden to this guy until he chooses to let me go )

Rufus Shinra rubs his nipples

Zack makes a face

Rufus Shinra sighs. lays next to him

Rufus Shinra says, "you have no interest?"

Zack says, "I...."

Rufus Shinra sighs

Rufus Shinra says, "not at all?"

Zack says, "I...... "

Rufus Shinra says, "you?"

Zack sighs

Zack says, "Go head and fuck my brains out... it don't matter no more"

Rufus Shinra says, "and why not?"

Zack shrugs

Zack says, "I got no life"

Rufus Shinra says, "Still.. I can't do that to you if you keep shuttering"

Rufus Shinra sighs

Rufus Shinra says, "I'm not a rapist"

Zack says, "You own me now you know... and you seemed pretty eager to get me on the bed"

Rufus Shinra says, "yeah.... but if you are truly disgusted by it I can't take it"

Zack says, "It doesn't matter...."

Rufus Shinra says, "yes it does"

Rufus Shinra folds his arms over his chest

Zack says, "why does it matter to you ... and no one else?"

Rufus Shinra says, "I can't take some one by force"

Zack says, "Where were you 2 years ago?"

Rufus Shinra says, "2 years ago?"

Zack says, "After I got out from under Sephiroth and hit the road"

Rufus Shinra says, "oh"

Rufus Shinra sighs

Rufus Shinra says, "you were under... under him?"

Zack says, "yes... "

Rufus Shinra says, "how was it?"

Zack says, "rough..."

Rufus Shinra sighs

Rufus Shinra says, "will Sephiroth never learn?"

Zack sighs

Rufus Shinra says, "you didn't like it?"

Zack says, "apparently not... he picked up a new apprentice before I left. I did it because I wanted to be the best"

Rufus Shinra says, "oh?"

Zack says, "some kid"

Zack shrugs

Rufus Shinra says, "kid? Is he going for kids now?"

Zack says, "He was only about 14 or 15...."

Rufus Shinra shakes his head

Rufus Shinra says, "damn... he's gotten warped"

Zack says, "First lesson... teaching you how to hold a sword.... is more like learning how to put up with Sephiroth poking you in the back with his erections while trying to get you in a proper stance"

Rufus Shinra says, "hmmm.... horny bastard. What's lesson 2?"

Zack says, "how to put up with getting his hand where its not supposed to be....."

Rufus Shinra says, "oh?"

Zack says, "Lesson three is how to put up with the pain of him being up your ass....."

Zack sighs

Rufus Shinra shakes his head

Rufus Shinra says, "I don't do that.... I try and seduce... I don't force people"

Rufus Shinra looks to him

Rufus Shinra says, "lesson 4?"

Zack says, "The hot tub"

Rufus Shinra says, "hot tub?"

Zack says, "It's where you soak your ass from it being so sore after his treatments"

Rufus Shinra says, "ahhhh"

Zack says, "Where'd you get your scars"

Rufus Shinra says, "My father.... the President of ShinRa"

Zack says, "Shit.. what a bastard"

Rufus Shinra says, "yeah... even though Seph isn't related to him.. they do some of the same stuff... but Seph does have some redeeming characteristics like cooking and sewing... my father has none"

Zack says, "sounds like you got a dad that loves you a little too much huh?"

Rufus Shinra says, "it isn't love. trust me... the is no such thing as love in my family"

Rufus Shinra sighs

Rufus Shinra says, "I would like to know love... but no one ever loves me really.. except maybe my sister"

Zack says, "I don't know love either... It got fucked out of me.... literally"

Rufus Shinra says, "same here"

Rufus Shinra closes his eyes again

Zack relaxes

Rufus Shinra says, "what is your name?"

Zack says, "Zack"

Rufus Shinra says, "I'm Rufus. was there a lesson 5?"

Zack says, "Lesson 5... was how to be as unromantic as possible... I think"

Rufus Shinra says, "next lesson?"

Zack says, "he did teach me fighting and sword play... as well as groping and fondling"

Rufus Shinra says, "well... that is something"

Rufus Shinra sighs

Rufus Shinra says, "I had bad lessons too. on pain... and how not to cry... and not to scream"

Zack says, "I got a few of those too...."

Rufus Shinra says, "really?"

Zack says, "One was.... Why we do not bite Sephiroth's penis..."

Rufus Shinra says, "ok...... and that was?"

Zack says, "I bit him and he showed me why we do not do that...."

Rufus Shinra says, "um.. what was he doing?"

Zack check out my thighs sometime....

Rufus Shinra says, "I mean... before"

Rufus Shinra wants to look at Zack's thighs... but thinks he really does not want more toying with

Zack says, "Whatcha mean before?"

Rufus Shinra says, "I mean... why did you end up biting him?"

Zack says, "Was that before the brutal raping.... or after the brutal raping?"

Rufus Shinra says, "brutal raping?"

Zack says, "He stuck it where I felt it didn't belong... namely my mouth"

Rufus Shinra shivers

Rufus Shinra says, "now that is bad too"

Rufus Shinra makes a face

Rufus Shinra says, "how old were you any way?"

Zack says, "oh... lessee.... Im about his age ya know"

Rufus Shinra says, "oh... and when was it he did that too you?"

Zack says, "I was about 18..."

Rufus Shinra says, "I was 5 when my old man started on me"

Zack says, "Now that sucks"

Rufus Shinra says, "I was 16 when he finally stopped"

Rufus Shinra sighs

Rufus Shinra says, "you going to leave now?"

Zack says, "Well... Im already half asleep....."

Rufus Shinra says, "then sleep"

Zack yawns

Rufus Shinra pulls his shoes off and lays his head on a pillow

Rufus Shinra says, "good night then Zack"

Zack says, "night"

Rufus Shinra falls asleep .. cursing his brother some what

Zack falls asleep ... snoring loudly
