Chapter 10

~~~~Sephiroth's PoV~~~~

I was tied up in a chair. I had cuts all over my body. Ean stared into my eyes. I growled and closed my eyes. "What's wrong lover boy?" Ean asked. I opened my eyes. Ean moved back and I struggled against the bonds. "Only Diana can save you Sephiroth. If you struggle more then you will rub your skin raw." Ean said. "I guess you shouldn't have been grieving so much. Maybe you should haven't cried so much. Wait the almighty Sephiroth doesn't cry!"

I stopped struggling and growled again. Ean cut my arm deeper and I screamed. Ean laughed and I blacked out

~~~~Diana's PoV~~~~

Suddenly I got a call and answered my phone. "Diana!" Angeal said desperately. "Ean! He..... he!" I handed Ren to Vincent and walked out of the room. "Calm down Angeal!" I said. "Calm down before I teleport there and slap you!" Angeal laughed weakly. I teleported there and saw Angeal lying on my apartment floor. "Oh dear god! Angeal!" I shouted. I used my strength to sit up Angeal.

Genesis entered the apartment and gasped at the sight of me. "Diana what are you doing here!" Genesis asked then saw Angeal's legs and came over. He tried to keep calm as I pulled the knife from Angeal's back. I healed the wound and then sat down beside Angeal. He looked upset with himself.

"Ean....... Sephiroth." Angeal said. "Ean attacked us in search of you. He took Sephiroth with him. It's been a couple hours since he was taken. I should have been able to do something! Now Sephiroth is in trouble." I growled and created certain clothes that covered my face. "Don't go after him Diana! He will kill you!" Angeal said.

"I have to do this for Sephiroth. Vincent can take care of Ren and all he wants is my powers. I can live without them." I said. Suddenly Genesis held me by the throat. "And you think he just wants that!" Genesis growled. "He could destroy the world if he wanted! You can't just go after Sephiroth alone!" I saw the reason in his words. I close my eyes.

"But...... but he has Sephiroth. I can't let him kill him! Wait...... Ean might have my blood....... no he can't not unless........ he has access to my father's herbs! He could...... he could do something horrible. I don't need lust! FOR ANYONE!" I screamed the last part. Genesis let go of me and stepped back. "You both know nothing about magic. If Ean wanted he could control me Genesis. He has my puppets so he could control me! So I have to go after Ean before he does something rash."

I teleported to Ean and stabbed him through the heart. I closed my eyes and let him collapse. I took off the mask and then opened my eyes. I saw Sephiroth covered in cuts. Ean let out one last breath before going still. Sephiroth was unconscious and I cut the ropes tying him up.

He slumped in the chair. I picked him up and put him over my shoulder. I teleported back to my apartment and laid him down on the couch. Genesis watched me closely. I kissed Sephiroth and I felt him move slightly. I held his hand and kissed it. I knew I had some of his blood on my clothes. "Sephiroth can you hear me?" I asked. He nodded slowly and opened his eyes.

"Diana." Sephiroth said. "How did you find me?" I healed him slowly and he squeezed my hand. "Angeal?" Sephiroth asked. "Is he okay?" I laughed and he chuckled weakly. Angeal stood up and looked at Sephiroth.

"Can I say I dragged him? I healed him." I said. "Are you okay?" Sephiroth nodded. I closed my eyes. Angeal put his hand on my shoulder and I smiled. Genesis leaned over the couch. "I tried to stop her." Genesis said. "She doesn't listen." I laughed and Sephiroth pulled me down. I fell on him. Sephiroth laughed and smiled.

Sephiroth pulled me up and grinned. "Now that he is dead you can be at peace." Sephiroth said. I laughed and got up. I shoved him playfully. Sephiroth sat up and looked at Genesis and Angeal. "Sorry..... I am just so glad." Sephiroth said with a grim expression. "Ean is dead I think." I nod.

"He is dead. But that doesn't mean my parents won't be upset with me." I said. "Unless they find out then I will be fine." Sephiroth nodded. "I have to go back to Ren. He can't be left for too long or he starts crying." I said. I teleported back to Vincent. He had a sad face on and I saw that Ren was crying. I laughed and took Ren from him.

Ren stopped crying and I smiled. He grabbed a part of my hair and played with it. I closed my eyes. "So what happened?" Vincent asked. "Why did you leave all of a sudden?" I opened my eyes and looked at Vincent and sat down. I pulled Ren's hands from my hair.

"I killed Ean." I said. "But he might be brought back to live. Or come back as a demon. If he comes back as a demon then his only goal will be to kill me and I would have to kill him again." Vincent nodded. He sat down beside me. "I don't want him to find Ren." I said. "I don't think I could do anything if he hurt my child." Vincent understood.

"He will be safe." Vincent promised. "But you should go tell Lazard about this. Even if you really shouldn't be there." I nod and wrap Ren up in blankets. Vincent took him from me and I teleported to Lazard's room. I saw Angeal, Genesis and Sephiroth. "Sorry to intrude." I spoke up. They turned to look at me and Lazard stood up.

"What are you doing here?" Lazard demanded. "I thought I told you to stay away until you had orders to return." I growled and silenced them. I pushed my way to Lazard. "You should be thankful! I save Angeal and Sephiroth! This is how I am repaid! Ean knows who to attack to get to me. So you have no choice Director." I growled. "Ean will kill Sephiroth or any of them if it means he gets a reaction from me. He will kill anyone if it means he gets to kill me!" Lazard leaned back shocked.

"Now I need to be here so he can try and kill me. He will be thinking Sephiroth will be at my apartment. It's the perfect trap." I said. "Now if you may excuse me... I have to get prepared for a fight." I walked back to my apartment and closed the door behind me. I cleaned the carpet hoping to get the blood stains out of it. Someone opened the door and I looked up. I saw Sephiroth with Angeal and Genesis. "Come in." I said.

Sephiroth came to me and bent down. "Lazard was scared. He was glad you left the room but you were pretty scary." Sephiroth said. "Let me help." I shoved him back and went back to work. Angeal laughed and I smiled. Sephiroth growled and I stuck my tongue out at him. "Oh come on!" Sephiroth complained. "Let me help." I shook my head. Suddenly Sephiroth tackled me. I struggled in his arms. "Don't you make me!" Sephiroth joked.

"I am not scared of you!" I growled playfully. Sephiroth laughed and started tickling me. "Stop it!" I said laughing. "Please! Stop!" Sephiroth stopped and started cleaning up the blood. I groaned and held my sides. "You will pay!" I joked. Sephiroth looked at me and growled. "Okay fine!" I said. "But don't make a mess." Suddenly I froze as the room went cold.

"Oh Diana." A voice called. I felt my head be forced back and a man walked out of the shadows. "I believe we must speak Diana." The man said. "Your friends won't be harmed. But you...... oh you just had to kill Ean didn't you? You should have known that he wouldn't be alone while playing his little game with such a powerful witch." I collapsed and the man teleported to me. I teleported Genesis, Angeal and Sephiroth away. I screamed as he cut my wrist. He pulled out a vile. I saw blood inside it.

"You don't mess with me. I won't do this yet and I saw how you acted with that man! I have his blood. Don't make me do this! Diana do you think you can work with me? If not then I have no choice. I don't want to do this." The man said. I went still and nodded. The man dragged me to the bedroom where he teleported to my home. A few minutes later, I was tied to a chair. "All I need is the child!" The man hissed.

"You will never have Ren!" I screamed. "You won't have him!" I felt him cut into my arm deeper. He made sure I could feel the pain. I screamed and he laughed. I shut up and hung my head. He lifted my head up and kissed me. I struggled against him. He stopped and pulled out the knife. "Still I keep my stand." I growled. I burned the man's hand and he yelped. I started burning the bonds that tied me up. He stopped me somehow and I screamed in pain.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I lay tied to my bed now and not able to think straight. I knew it would be best to teleport away but I couldn't find it in myself to do so. I wanted to see Sephiroth badly but I couldn't move. I had tried to teleport him to me but I failed each time. Suddenly I heard shouts and growls. I started to burn the ropes that tied me to the bed. I got up and stumbled to the bedroom door. I leaned against the doorway.

I saw Angeal run up the stairs to me and he hugged me. I put my arms around him and cried. Angeal picked me up and carried me out of the house. "Sephiroth." I groaned. Angeal jumped at the sound of my voice. "Ren." I groaned out. "Where is my baby?" I was set down on the grass and I felt Angeal's hand on my forehead.

"Is she okay?" I heard someone ask but I didn't know who it was speaking. I was still bleeding from my arm. "Who's there?" I asked with my voice laced with pain. I heard the person approach and suddenly Zack was leaning over me. "The puppy." I groaned. "Of course!" Zack laughed and I heard sounds of fighting. "Sephiroth!" I moaned. "He can't!" Angeal started to get worried. Suddenly I was leaned against a tree.

"It's okay Diana." Angeal said. "It's going to be okay. Zack do you have any bandages? Her arm is bleeding badly." I couldn't do anything but manage to keep my head up. Zack started wrapping up my arm and I groaned in pain. Angeal held my hand and I couldn't stand the shouts from inside the house. Suddenly everything went silent in the house and Sephiroth walked out with blood on his outfit.

He slowly walked up to us and then looked at my bandaged arm. The bandage was already soaked with blood. He held my arm tightly and ripped off a bit of his cape. He tied it tightly above the wound. "I am no doctor but I know how to at least help stop the bleeding." Sephiroth said. Genesis walked out of my house as well. I wanted to move but I couldn't.

"Good..... at least we found her but...... what happened to her arm!" Genesis demanded. I tried to speak but I could only manage a groan of pain. Genesis cursed. "I thought...... you didn't........... swear...... in...... front....... of...... a g-g-goddess." I managed to say. Genesis looked at me and Angeal chuckled. Sephiroth chuckled as well. Genesis glared at me. Suddenly I felt dizzy and tried not to move my hands to my head. "We need to move her." Genesis said. "She is obviously weak."

Sephiroth picked me up and I moved my arm to my side. I laid my head against his chest and listened to his heart beat. I just wanted to stay there but I was pulled into a helicopter from his arms. I was laid down on a stretcher. I curled up and closed my eyes. "Have you slept at all?" Sephiroth asked. I shook my head. I felt so tired but I didn't want to fall asleep. I didn't want this to be a dream. Sephiroth sat down beside me. I grabbed his hand and fell asleep knowing I would wake up if he disappeared.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up to someone shaking me awake. I realized that I wasn't breathing at the moment. I took in a deep breath. Suddenly they stopped shaking me and I saw Sephiroth's worried expression. I felt weak and my head was spinning. "Diana!" Sephiroth growled at me. I slapped him hard and he was shocked. I sat up and started breathing regularly. Sephiroth laughed. "You worried me there." Sephiroth admitted. "Genesis and Angeal are sleeping out in your living room." I noticed I was in my bedroom.

I stood up and looked at the living room. "Um I will try and resist but....... I so badly want to do this." I said quietly. Sephiroth went to me and saw my smiled. "Don't tell me your doing what I think your doing!" Sephiroth hissed. I used my magic to arrange Genesis and Angeal until they were hugging. "Oh my! They are going to kill you Diana!" Sephiroth said. I giggled and went back to my bed.

"They won't ever know. They will only wake up hugging." I said and smiled. "They will only know if you tell them." Sephiroth rolled his eyes and sat down on my bed. I sat down beside him. "Now just to wait to see how they react." I said. "I can't wait to see their faces! And you will say nothing! Or I will kiss you and I will make sure you don't like it!" Sephiroth laughed. I listened closely to the living room. I heard them move slightly but they weren't awake. "At least I didn't make them cuddle." I added. Sephiroth nodded and smiled.

~~~~~~~~~~

Suddenly there was a shout and I pretended to be asleep. "WHAT THE ****!" Genesis's voice shouted. I got up and pretended to be tired as I looked out at them. Angeal woke up and let go of Genesis. "Diana! Do you have anything to do with this!" Genesis got up and stormed over to me. He was blocked by Sephiroth's sword.

"I might have or might not have. But you two look so cute together!" I said and Sephiroth stopped protecting me. Genesis attacked me and pinned me against the wall. Angeal got up and looked at Genesis and me. "Genesis and Angeal!" I taunted then said genuinely. "You look so cute together. You really do!" Genesis started to choke me. I felt dizzy and broke his arm. He let go of me and I rubbed my neck. "I am sorry but I had to Genesis." I said. "You don't just miss such an opportunity." Genesis growled at me.

"She is kind of right." Angeal said. "You would do that between her and Sephiroth and you know it Genesis. Honestly it's childish but we still do it anyways." Genesis growled but nodded. Sephiroth laughed and I growled. I tried not to think to hard or come up with any ideas. Angeal's face was slightly red. "What's wrong Angel?" I teased. "You both know I could do worse. So find yourselves lucky!" Angeal nodded and Genesis growled at me.

I smiled and healed his arm. Sephiroth went over to me and picked me up. I blushed and buried my head in his chest.
