I'm Interested (FF/KH Story)

Chapter 15

I crawl up the mountain and see Zack on the floor, lying with blood everywhere. I feel my heartbeat accelerate faster and faster by the second. I feel my hands shaking like crazy. I never thought this day would come. I reach Zack and open my mouth to speak. Almost nothing comes out due to how scared I am.

"Z-Zack..." He tries his hardest to speak and instead grunts a little.

"For the... Both of us."

"Both... Of us?"

"That's right... You're gonna..."

"You're gonna..."

"Live." Zack puts all of the strength he can and put his hand on my head. He takes my head and puts it on a wound he has. I lift up my head and all of Zack's blood is on my cheek.

"You'll be... My living legacy..." Zack drags the Buster Sword over to me.

"My honor, my dreams. They're yours now." I grab the sword in disbelief and see a tear slide down Zack's cheek. I feel my heart breaking every second, thinking that I'll lose my best friend.

"I'm your... Living legacy." Zack slowly forms a smile on his face and slowly closes his eyes. I feel the tears start dripping down my face extremely fast. I look up at the sky and scream in pain. This is too soon. Zack can't leave! He just can't! Memories start flashing through my head of when me and Zack were together.

"Embrace your dreams. If you want to be a hero, you need to have dreams."

"Thank you. I won't forget." After a few hours of mourning, I feel my strength coming back to me and stand up to take one last look at Zack Fair. I feel tears start dripping down my cheeks again.

"Goodnight... Zack." I let one more tear slide down my cheek and look at Zack's peaceful face. His smile is still on his face. I turn around and start to walk. I drag the sword behind me and I'm limping. This can't be true... Zack Fair of all people, had to die. Damn Shin-Ra! Damn everyone and everything! I hate everyone and everything! I don't care anymore! Just make it all end!

I open my eyes and see everyone looking at me with worry. I feel so much pain. The fact I had that memory of Zack again... "Cloud! You're awake!" Lucina says.

"Are you alright?" Everyone asks me the same exact question again and again.

"Yeah, I feel okay." I look at Lucina and see her sigh with relief. She looks into my eyes and a smile appears on her face.

"Do you want anything?" Tifa asks

"No, I'm alright."

"Do you guys still think we have enough time to go to the movies?" Yuffie asks

"Yuffie! Cloud literally just woke up and you want to go to the movies? He might feel tired!" Tifa yells to Yuffie

"Tifa, calm down. I'm okay. We can still go, if you guys want."

"Cloud, are you really sure?" Lucina asks me. She sits down next to me and holds my hand tightly. I look at her and see worry in her eyes.

"I'm positive."

"Okay... Then let's go, I guess..." Lucina says. I slowly get up from the bed and hold Lucina's hand tightly. I give her a soft kiss and walk out the door with her. Everyone walks downstairs and goes outside. Me and Luci get on Fenrir, while everyone else get's in Cid's car. I start the engine and drive off toward the moive theaters. I can't stop thinking about what happened in that memory. Why did I get that memory again? The good times we had together, they seem to be forgotten in the past. When we first met was the greatest thing that has ever happened to me. I can remember the jokes we both made about the name's of our hometowns. I feel like... Everything happy that has ever happened to me, was just ripped apart from my life. My mom, dad, hometown, my idols... Most importantly, Zack and Aerith. I just wish that a miracle could happen so that Zack and Aerith will be here with me. I just... Don't know what to do anymore. I feel betrayed, lied to, hurt. I don't know how I honestly feel anymore.
