Characters: Kadaj and OPEN Time: Around Sunset Location: The BEAN Content: Another new arrival... Format: Prose Warnings: Kadaj is almost cute, until he proves he's actually really crazy...
Yazoo hadn't gone far from the bean, not for long anyway. It stood to reason that he had been brought there when he arrived his brothers would be as well, it would only be a matter of time.
He crunched across the park towards where he felt Kadaj, a small part of his existence clicking back in to alignment like a displaced cog. He stood silent for a moment, watching Kadaj on the ground.
The presence of his brother, closer now, and getting closer, was comforting, in a way. The ShinRa guy had lied, said Mother was in the box, had made him believe, and...and it was nothing. Yazoo being close, here, was a comfort he desperately needed.
He sniffled once, not looking up from his hunched vigil. "She's gone, Brother."
Yazoo frowned, just a bit confused. How could she be gone when she had brought them here? It didn't make sense, not unless...it had never been Mother in the box.
"No, she's not." There was a hint of frustration in his voice, this was so simple.
Of course Yazoo would think that. He hadn't been there when he'd figured it out, when he finally knew what to do with Mother, what she wanted. He remembered it, the knowing, the no longer questioning, all of it. And then...he'd ended up here.
And now he didn't know anymore. "She was here," he stressed, standing, holding the box out to his taller brother. "But now she's not." And then he finally looked around. She brought us here Yazoo had said. Did that mean...
