Thanks. My cold is gone but my stomach is really upset today for no reason. =( I have terrible luck.
Yeah, I know it. I have to see him everyday because we're in the same classes and it's so annoying. I can't hear his voice and not have an...
I've been alright. Except that I was home sick today. =( And I'm feeling pretty terrible right now.
xD Niceeee.
My class is the largest in my school, I think. xD
No, he dumped me on a whim. It was a jerky thing to do and he doesn't seem to care. I'm really hurt from all of it partly because it looks like he...
Chapter 8: Day of Fate (Part 1) “Tifa. Tifa, wake up,†Cloud gently roused the young woman sleeping under the tree. Tifa furrowed her brows slightly, feeling a hand lightly rest on her shoulder. When she finally opened her eyes, she saw Cloud kneeling in front of her, his eyes piercing hers. Even in this lighting, his eyes were as bright as ever. In the darkness, she could still see their radiance. Wait, darkness?! Tifa suddenly became more aware, her eyes scanning the area. Everyone was standing around. A few were looking at her, but the rest were gazing down at the Yuraks. Nightfall. Tifa realized this fact fairly quickly, startled that she hadn’t been awoken sooner. Her eyes were slightly wider than usual in anticipation. Hopefully her reflexes wouldn’t be too clouded because she had just awakened from her slumber. She set a hand on the ground and started to rise to her feet. Cloud’s hand slipped off her shoulder, but his eyes stayed on her the entire time. “Why didn’t you get me up sooner?†Tifa asked, her voice sounding groggy. “I was concerned about your health. You haven’t gotten much rest lately.†He paused. “Are you sure you’re alright to fight tonight? You don’t look too good.†“I’m fine,†Tifa said absently, waving off his concern. She still felt tired, but that wasn’t going to keep her off the battlefield, that was for sure. “Let’s just go,†Cloud nodded, and then turned his attention to the rest of the group. “Judging by their movement and patrol patterns, they’ve greatly raised their defense. We need to be very careful tonight.†Everyone murmured their agreements as they checked their weapons. Once everyone was prepared, they started to head down on their own. They were still going down as individuals, which was the wisest move they could have made. Tifa was second to last heading down, Cloud leaving right after her. He headed down the same trail she did, then broke off sometime when they were closer to the bottom. Tifa snuck into the area and hid behind a bush. Every time somebody walked by, she would disable them and then throw them into the wooded area behind her. However, once she was there for a long time and nobody else came, she realized she must have finished off everyone who was supposed to patrol that area. So she went on the move, knocking out other ninjas in her general area. Things were going wonderfully for such a long time, that Tifa figured tomorrow night they would hunt down Hiraku. Flash! A high-beam came on, illuminating the ground. But it wasn’t targeted at Tifa; it was on an area to her right. “Hunt the imbecile who is eliminating out people!†a battle cry came from the entrance of one of the caves, a general apparently leading his people. Tifa jumped behind a group of trees, watching in horror as they all charged past her toward the lit-up area. No! They were going for one of her friends! Tifa suddenly felt enraged, and she charged out of her bush, ambushing the final line of soldiers. She took out five easily before the rest of the ninjas turned around and saw her. “What?!†the general cried out. “It’s the infidel! Attack HER! Forget about the other girl.†“Girlâ€, Tifa thought. They must have seen Yuffie. Heh, some ninja she is... Tifa took a step back, fists raised as she prepared herself for a hard battle. There must have been fifty Yuraks surrounding her already, and she was sure there were more on the way. But she also had hope that her friends were on the way. A group charged at her, but she quickly swatted them off. One of them dropped a sword, and she picked it up, making a move of swinging in the air to scare off her foes. “Come on!†she cried, rushing the nearest ninja. Before he knew what hit him, he was shredded to bits. A few more came in at her, and she had trouble dispatching them. She winced when a blade cut her upper arm, then another weapon impacting her leg. She fell back, but quickly picked herself back up. Unstable on her feet, she knew she couldn’t fight them off physically at that moment. A materia started to glow in her arm as she pulled back her hand. Three fiery bolts shot out of her hand, impacting nearly all of her enemies. Those were not impacted stepped back in fear and shock. While they were distracted, Tifa sent one more high into the sky. She understood that it would attract more enemies, but it would also let her friends know where to come. One ninja recovered exceedingly quickly and charged forward, but Tifa merely grabbed his arm and spun him around. Once the speed was built up, she chucked him at a group that was just starting to rise to their feet. Three more charged at her, and she grunted in disbelief when she realized she couldn’t defend herself against them. She did the only thing she could do; she jumped backwards, landing in a tree. Instead of letting them gawk at her quick movement, she leapt down on them again, taking out the three that had gone for her in the first place. Tifa stood still for a moment, scanning the area around her. It was then that she noticed they had formed a circle around her. In the background, she heard guns being loaded. They had no intention of letting her make it out alive. Gunshots sounded around her, and she instinctively cowered to avoid any bullets. But they were not aimed for her. The ninjas surrounding her crumbled, most dying right away. The others lost their lives when the earth beneath them started to quake with such ferocity that it swallowed them up. The young woman rose to her feet, eyes wandering. Barret was two steps away, gun aimed upward at the caves. That was the location of the gunmen. He fired away at them, his rage coming out in a growl. He hated to see Tifa hurt and endangered. To her left, Tifa noticed Red XIII arriving with Cait Sith on his back. “You alright, lass?!†Cait Sith asked over the gunshots. He looked up at her, concern in his large cat eyes. “Don’t worry about me,†Tifa said simply. “Worry about them.†She pointed to in front of them. More Yuraks were joining the battle. Red and Cait Sith looked at her a moment longer before turning forward, charging at the group. Tifa ran moments after them, hurrying to catch up. While running, two more people came along side of her. Yuffie and Cid. They both had more energy than she, so they made it to the group before she did. Tifa finally arrived at the mass of Yuraks, taking down four of them in one combo move. Then even more came at her at once, nearly knocking her off her feet. The battle was so biased! Nearly all of the ninjas were going for her, not her friends. Sure, she was glad her friends weren’t in as great of danger as she was, but if this continued, she wasn’t going to survive the battle! There were too many going against her at once, and she was losing energy quickly. A heavy weapon swung into her stomach, causing her a great deal of pain. Not only that, but it also sent her flying backwards. She had no control over her body as she soared through the air. Pain exploded from her head when she landed, her head banging against a tree. Her vision blackout for a moment, and she fought to regain consciousness of where she was. Come on, she thought to herself, gritting her teeth at the pain. She blinked a few times, the blackness finally disappearing. Just in time to see a bunch of Yuraks charging towards her. Her other friends were still caught up in their own battles, being distracted from a great issue here. Tifa grabbed onto a low tree branch, bringing herself back to her feet as quickly as she could. But it was too late; she was already surrounded. Her legs gave out from underneath her, and she shakily fell to her knees. She put out her hands to catch herself before she fell on her face. A sick feeling entered her stomach when she realized she would either die here or she would be so seriously wounded she would wish for death. The girl gritted her teeth together in frustration. How could she even think that?! She wasn’t giving up without a fight! She pushed up with her hands, coming onto only her knees now. The ninjas around her were raising their weapons. Tifa clenched one of her hands in a fist, another materia glowing in her arm. Bolts of lightning rained down on her opponents, the electricity so strong in them that they all either fell and lost their lives or stepped back. While they were distracted, Tifa broke through the back line, defeating the two ninjas that stood in her way. Then she escaped into the forest. She ran as quickly as she could, determined to get out of the battle for a moment to pull herself together. Fortunately, she didn’t hear anybody running after her. A minute later, she broke through the woods, into a clearing. She gasped for air as she fell to her knees, weakness overtaking her. Several of her wounds were bleeding, and she was just plain exhausted. She let her eyes fall shut as she cast cure on herself, using up what remained of her magic. Relief immediately came to her, refreshing her. She sighed softly, feeling the pain start to weaken; however, it was still there. That is, until a few moments later. A tingling feeling spread throughout her body and the aches disappeared almost completely. She opened her eyes in surprise. A young man was approaching her. Spiky hair, big sword...Cloud. Tifa put a hand on the ground and stood up again. She felt Cloud’s hand on her shoulder almost immediately afterwards. “You okay?†he asked, his voice sounding frantic. Tifa nodded. She was now, since she had a chance to cure herself of her aches. And Cloud had cast cure as well; that was the second healing she had felt. Tifa suddenly heard a series of battle cries. Her eyes widened when she saw a bunch of Yuraks swarm the area. She prepared herself for battle, but then Cloud’s hand tightened on her shoulder. He pulled her behind him and raised his sword. His body began to glow faintly, and Tifa knew that he was about to use a limit break. She lowered her hands and nodded faintly, silently letting Cloud know that she understood what was happening. She took in a deep breath and shut her eyes. Moments later, the sounds of battle entered her ears. Then it stopped very abruptly. She opened her eyes, seeing Cloud standing a few yards away. All the ninjas around her were defeated. Then Tifa saw one start to crawl away. Before Cloud could take the initiative, she stepped forward. She leaned down and harshly grabbed him by the top of his shirt. “Where’s Hiraku?!†she snapped, shoving him into a tree. The ninja only laughed. She brought her other hand to his neck, clenching it lightly. “Answer me! Or your death will be a slow and painful one.†“Hehe, I don’t believe you have that kind of power.†Tifa smirked. “Please. Hiraku has the nerve to send all his ninjas after me, and I have no power? Where’s the logic in that?†The ninja’s eyes darkened. “If you don’t answer me, I will break every, single bone in your body. I’m sure it’ll be agonizing.†“No, no please!†the Yurak cried. “He’s in an abandoned farmhouse. To the east of the mountain range. It’s a fifteen minute sprint from here.†“Is he alone? Does he have more men with him?†“O-only a few. But they are his finest assassins.†Tifa paused. “Does he know we’re coming?†“Most likely.†Surprisingly, Tifa believed him. A man wasn’t going to lie when he was so afraid of pain. This was obviously a rookie. A full-fledged ninja would not betray his master. The girl brought her hand off his neck and punched him hard on his chin. The Yurak crumbled and she released her grip on his shirt, taking a step back away from the body. “What now?†Tifa turned at the voice, recognizing it as Vincent’s. The vampire was standing alongside Cloud, along with all her other friends. Apparently every other Yurak in the area had been taken care of. Tifa locked eys with Cloud, but he still did not say a word. It was then that she realized that he was allowing her to take over the leadership of this mission. He too understood how superior her knowledge was when it came to these people. “We leave. We run straight for the farmhouse and finish this. For good.â€
Aww, that stinks. My class is small as well; less than 30 kids.
I don't focus on groups at school; my friends are my friends and that makes them cool. Anywho, I'm doing better now. I'm not completely alright,...
Aw, that's terrible. =( People are so mean.
Ooo, I know how that is. One of my best friends was homeschooled till 8th grade. It was a rough change for her.
That's one way of putting it.
Thanks, I hope so too. As of now, things aren't too good. But they're not too bad either, I guess. I don't know...it's just really complicated.
[Sorry about the delay, my life got really really hectic in the past week. I'll try to be better with the updates. Here's chapter 7.] Chapter 7: The Assault “This is it,†Tifa breathed, looking out through her binoculars at the Southern Mountain side. Yuraks dressed in all black patrolled the area, looking very intimidating. There were so many of them! Tifa and her friends had just reached that area five minutes ago, and fortunately, they were unnoticed. At least for the time being, anyway. Because they were located on an elevation and looking down on the valley, there was no way for the Yuraks to spot them. Unless they patrolled the upper lands too. Tifa had uneasy feeling in her stomach knowing that they were about to fight these soldiers. Cloud, who had been lying on the ground beside her, suddenly rose to his feet. Tifa followed him with her eyes, as did the rest of her friends. He walked over to his motorcycle and pushed one button. His collection of swords appeared, and he grabbed his favorite one. He can’t be serious, Tifa thought, her eyes widening. Cloud saw how many men they would have to fight through, and yet he was still leading them down there? It was suicide! “Let’s go,†Cloud said. His voice showed determination and powerful leadership, which triggered something in everyone. Everyone rose to their feet, including Tifa. However, Tifa stood up for another reason entirely. And that was to stop this madness. “Hold on.†Red XIII suddenly spoke, surprising Tifa. Perhaps he too saw the nonsense in attacking head on. Maybe, just maybe, there was another way to do this. However, when the animal spoke, his thoughts proved to be very different than Tifa’s. “Are we splitting into different parties?†Parties?! Tifa could have laughed at how stupid that was. There was no way they were going to break through the soldiers even if they were all together, let alone in different groups! The young woman turned her head to Cloud, and she saw that he was considering Red’s suggestion. Seriously? Could he not see how threatening this was? It was at that moment that she remembered how little experience her friends had with these enemies. They needed to act in a much different way than they were used to. “Wait,†Tifa broke in before Cloud could respond to Red’s question. Everyone turned to look at her. “It would be foolish to just crash in and fight them head on. It would be suicide!†“What do you suggest?†Cid asked. Surprisingly, he was willing to listen to her. It was a great difference from the other day. Perhaps even cold-hearted Cid could have a change in heart. Then again, maybe he wasn’t so cold anymore. She hadn’t seen him in over a year... “Tifa?†Cloud spoke her name, breaking Tifa out of her thoughts. She must have been quiet for a moment too long, since he was giving her a strange look. And by the look in his eyes, he was still concerned over what happened last night. A faint smirk appeared on Tifa’s face. “I have a plan.†She went on to explain her idea, and as she went on with the details, she saw the others be more receptive. When she felt their support brewing, she became more confident in her plan. It was original, and surprisingly, she felt as if she were going to have fun with this. In the end, everyone agreed to hold off until night-time to put the plan into action. This was going to go very smoothly if everyone did their part. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* “WHAT?!†Hiraku hollered at his captain. Hiraku was sitting in the middle of his cave fortress, relaxing with his concubine when his captain came in and gave him some startling news: Their soldiers were being assassinated and killed off. How was he, the all-powerful leader of the Yuraks, supposed to fight a war if he didn’t have any soldiers?! “How is this happening??†The captain shrank back, afraid at his leader’s rage. “They have just been disappearing as of late. Blood has appeared on the grounds, but there is no sign of struggle.†Hiraku growled and pounded the armrest of his chair. He had no idea what was happening here, but over the last three nights, they had lost six-hundred soldiers. They had been patrolling the outer caves areas, but now they were very short on men. Only four-hundred remained, and the rest were out on the Western Front. “Whoever is doing this...I want them taken care of!†he shrieked, his face reddening in anger. “Y-yes, sir. I’ll have the patrol be on high alert from this point on. This will not occur again.†The captain quickly dismissed himself, which was a wise move on his part. Hiraku had a reputation of killing his own men when he was enraged. The leader growled again, blood boiling. If some resistance faction thought they could get away with this, they were very wrong. “Leave!†he suddenly snarled at those who had boldly remained in the room with him. All the women hurriedly left, along with the two other guards who had been standing at the door. Once alone, he abruptly rose to his feet and walked to a table on the right side of the make-shift room. He snatched a piece of paper off the table and held it up, the lighting in the area sufficient enough for him to see what was on the paper. It was a photo of a young woman with black hair. Well, not a photo, per-se. Rather, it was a sketch of her. One of her soldiers had gotten close enough to her to see her face, and then he had fled and returned to the fortress. Hiraku was glad to finally have an idea of what his enemy looked like. This warrior; the one person who posed a threat to him. Tifa Lockhart. “You will be mine,†he stated softly. “The day you enter my sight, you will die.†*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* “I can’t believe it’s actually working,†Barret said under his breath, watching the panicked soldiers scan the area more critically than they ever had before. Over the past three nights, everyone from their group had snuck into the area below and secretly killed off many ninjas. Well, everyone except for Denzel and Marlene. Those two stayed at the camp, locked in the van. They didn’t travel in groups or even pairs; they were completely alone down there. It was for the best though, because then the Yuraks had no idea what hit them. So many of them had been eliminated over the past few nights that everyone had lost count. Yuffie claimed to have killed off two hundred herself, but everyone recognized the stretch. There was no way they could have killed more than four hundred. At least, that’s what they estimated. Tifa smiled at Barret’s comment, the young woman standing beside him on the hill above the Yuraks. Yes, things were working out wonderfully. The scene below was much emptier than it had been before, and Tifa now believed that they had a chance at winning this battle. But only if they went down tonight and took out many more of the soldiers. They weren’t in the clear yet. Besides those wandering outside, Tifa had a feeling Hiraku stored back-ups in his lair. “Teef, how in the world did you come up with this? It’s working great!†Tifa smiled at Barret’s praise. She shrugged at the question, though, unable to come up with a response. The idea had just kind of come to her. After her war experiences in the past year, she knew many strategies, and using knowledge from that, she easily formulated this plan. It wasn’t that big of a deal to her, but all of her friends called it a stroke of brilliance. Even Cloud applauded her for seeing something he couldn’t. “Let’s just hope things go well tonight,†Tifa finally said. “If we get caught tonight, then everything else will have been a waste. We can’t get cocky.†Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Barret nod. Then they were both silent for a very long time. It was day time now, and they were the only two awake. Everyone else was resting; since they stayed awake late into the night and early morning to be sure there was no danger after their raids were done. Tifa didn’t mind being alone with Barret. They were such great friends before, and their bond was strong. Even if Tifa did leave him a year ago, they still had an unbreakable friendship. That was something Tifa really appreciated today. “Are you excited?†Barret asked. “About what?†“Being done with this. It must not be fun, bein hunted an all.†Tifa shrugged again. “We’re not home free yet, Barret,†she said seriously. “Things can change very quickly at this point. We can’t think about things that have yet to come into existence.†Barret nodded faintly, mumbling some kind of agreement. Tifa knew that wasn’t the answer he wanted, but it was the only one she could give. As relieving as it was to know that things were probably coming to an end, it was also scary. Because with this end, there was a new beginning. And starting over was a terrifying thought. “Teef?†“Mm?†“I missed you.†Tifa lowered her eyes at that, sadness appearing in her eyes. Yes, of course her best friend had missed her. She had suddenly disappeared, leaving no way to contact her. She had even thrown out her cell phone. Now, however, Cloud had bought her a new one. And he forced her to keep it on her at all times. But that was beside the point now. This was about her and Barret, not Cloud getting her a new phone. How did her thoughts always drift to him...? “I missed you too,†Tifa said softly, leaving her thoughts unsaid. In truth, she had. More than she thought possible, she really had missed Barret. Hmm, she had even missed his bear hugs. Despite his intimidating demeanor, he really was a big lug. He had such a kind heart underneath his rough exterior. She could see how Marlene could break down those walls, and now, Tifa saw that she could do the same. It was something she could do only because of their long relationship. She knew that she should never take advantage of the relationship again. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Barret take a step closer to her. Tifa turned to face him, and by his facial expression, she knew what he was thinking. The young woman stepped forward to meet him with open arms, the two embracing. Two long lost friends, and a sweet reunion. Tifa knew this was going to be her favorite Barret-hug. They stood in each other’s arms for a long time, the rest of the world at peace around them. Tifa felt warmth from his embrace, and it was comforting to know he didn’t hate her. She would have been devastated if she had lost his friendship. However, she didn’t let her thoughts dwell on that; that was too miserable. Instead, she let herself soften into the embrace and enjoy the comfort it brought. After a while, Tifa started to feel tired. It was a combination of things, including her physical exhaustion from the action lately and the peace she felt in her heart. “Barret?†she spoke, her voice sounding weak. Her embrace around Barret started to soften, and she felt Barret react the same way. When his eyes met hers, Tifa immediately knew he understood what was happening. He slowly and gently released her, his eyes never leaving hers. Once they were completely apart, Tifa gave him a faint smile. He gave one in return, and it just about made Tifa’s heart melt. She wished she could stand there with him longer, but she hadn’t gotten much sleep lately, so she really did need to rest. The understanding in Barret’s eyes was very comforting to her; it let her know that things were alright. She turned around and headed towards the nearest tree, which was one of the only spots protected from the sun. Once she sat herself down with her back against the tree, she promptly fell into a dreamless slumber.
No, it's not fun at all. =/
I should have. xD But considering I still have to see him a lot at school, that wouldn't be a good move. I'll fix that and the sentence with periods.
I know, it broke my heart writing it. It was so lifelike because my boyfriend just broke up with me for the same reason. I was so mad that I had to vent. But no, I did not throw anything at him. xD I'll correct the typo right now, thanks.
[I wrote this all yesterday and added a few finishing touches. This takes place sometime during FFVII: Crisis Core. And no, I have nothing against AerithxZack. In fact, I adore the pairing. But I had to write this story for my sake. It's based on a true and very personal story. I'll say no more. Enjoy my tragic one-shot.] Heartbreak How did it come to this? It didn’t make sense. Everything was just fine yesterday. He had even said “I love you” before he kissed her goodnight. And just earlier that day, he had told her that he would always love her. Always. When did always turn into never? “Is it really over?” Aerith mumbled, hesitantly looking over to her boyfriend Zack. Surely he didn’t mean it. It was their one-year anniversary to that day. He was playing a joke on her. Of course, that was it. Zack was such a goofball sometimes. She didn’t understand it all the time, but she had grown used to it. He wouldn’t break up with her on such an important date...And in her church, too. Yes, her church. Seeing how she spent so much time there, Aerith saw it as her second home. This place was her sanctuary, her safe place. Nothing bad ever happened here. In fact, this was the place where she had met Zack in the first place. He had come crashing through her roof, and they had immediately fallen in love. Aerith had glanced into his bright eyes one time and she believed in love at first sight from that moment on. “Yeah, it’s over,” he responded without hesitation. Aerith listened for the sarcasm in his voice, but there was none. Absolutely none. “But—but why?” she whispered, tears filling her eyes. Her green eyes flickered up to Zack, her one true love. She heard rumors from the Turks that he had bought her a ring. The Turks, experts in their field of work, were never wrong. But Zack was still taking back his love for her? This made no sense at all. “I just...” he ran a hand through his hair, clearly feeling awkward. “...I don’t...feel for you romantically...anymore.” His words were formal, but they still cut right through the girl’s heart more than any other words could. “Was it something I said?” Aerith inquired without thought, her heart breaking with each passing second. Her tears were nearly flowing now, but she kept it inside, knowing she had to be strong. At that moment, she didn’t know why she had such a strong desire to be strong. She could only guess that instinct was telling her to save whatever dignity she had left. And besides, she didn’t want Zack to see her heart breaking. She still loved him so so much... “It has nothing to do with you,” Zack stated, surprising Aerith. This boy really, really made no sense. If she hadn’t done anything wrong, then why didn’t he love her anymore? Love did not just disappear overnight. It was, literally, overnight for these two. She had seen love in Zack’s eyes last night, but today, she saw impassiveness. He was being so cold, breaking her heart like this. Couldn’t he see the pain he was causing her? “I...don’t...understand...” “I don’t see any point in continuing this relationship,” he said bluntly. “We’re so different. Things aren’t going to work out.” So different?! What a lie! They shared the same taste in music, same philosophical beliefs, same everything! Ok, so he was in SOLDIER and she was a flower girl in the slums. On the inside though, they were so, so alike! “We’re not very different,” she stated softly, surprised that she had spoken that stray thought aloud. There was one main train of thought running through her head as all this went on, and that was “Is this really happening? Is this really happening? Is this really happening...?” Zack was silent at this comment. So, he too realized the truth of Aerith’s declaration. He wasn’t a completely fool after all; he had been caught in a lie, and he wasn’t going to dig himself deeper into that hole. That was a very wise move. “It’s time I left,” he finally said. Zack picked himself up off the ground, and wiped off some of the pollen that had gotten on his pants. He had been sitting right by the edge of the flowerbed, and Aerith had been in the same position only a foot away. But now, he was leaving her...forever. Why? All because last night he had planned to break up with her. He saw no hope of a future with her, and he had gotten whatever he wanted out of her. There was nothing left for him now; he just wanted an exit, even if it hurt those around him. “Why are you doing this?!” Aerith asked him, eyebrows furrowed in sadness and misunderstanding. There was no logic in this madness! Either he was being forced to do this, or he really was a cold, heartless jerk. “Is it Elena?” she inquired ruthlessly. “Are you leaving me for someone else?!” “I. Don’t. Love. You. Anymore. It’s that simple.” Zack’s firmness broke Aerith’s heart completely, and one tear slid down her cheek despite her efforts to keep the emotions inside. He turned away, this time, not looking back for any reason. The black haired man started toward the exit, giving a casual wave to the heartbroken girl over his shoulder. “Hey!” Aerith shouted in anger. She was so surprised at the rage and betrayal she felt, and it was a relief that she allowed it to control her now. “You forgot your stupid cure Materia!” Trembling, she picked it up off the ground where Zack had been sitting. Without thought, she chucked it at him, hitting him in the back of the head. A satisfying "thud" reverberated throughout the church. I hope I knocked some sense into your head, you...you...liar.... She immediately wished she could take the action back, for when Zack turned around to pick up the fallen Materia, he still looked emotionless. There was absolutely no expression on his face. He felt no pain from this. None at all. Zack turned back around, Materia in hand, as he walked forward. He exited the church without another word, leaving Aerith alone in her confusion and sorrow. You said you would never leave. You promised you were different. You promised so much...and for what? I believed in you, and you don’t care. You don’t care at all. You’re not the person I thought you were. You lied to me and betrayed me. You taught me how to love, then you crushed me so that I may never love again. You’ve done all this and you won’t lose any sleep over it. That’s what kills me inside.
My friend, I have come up with a conclussion. Real life fairytales don't exist unless you're 1 in a billion. Our fictional boys are so much better...
Yeah, today is just plain terrible. I hope things get better, I hate feeling depressed.
