You sweat behind the metal pillar, wielding your weapon with shaky hands. At this point, you are definitely the only person left alive in the entire reactor. Everything's gonna end up in flames. You begin to hyperventilate, and then stop immediately.

Someone was in the building. You hear the thud of boots against iron, and feel everything go cold. He's here. Fear pounds through your ears, as you don't dare to peek behind the pillar. You had never wanted this.

"Come out." A voice cuts through the air like the slice of a sword. You can't breathe. "I know you're in here. Show yourself, or accept the consequences."

Don't move. You stand there like a frozen rock, everything stopped. If I don't move, he might leave. Everything went silent for a second, and you barely relax.

And then, something grabs you and rips you out from behind the pillar. You try to scream but something cold and leathery slams over your mouth and chokes the yell out of you. Not to mention your weapon arm is twisted behind your back, completely incapacitating you.

You fearfully glance up to see that last thing you're probably going to ever see. The face of the infamous SOLDIER that every new recruit in Shinra knew to fear.

Sephiroth.

"Shinra dog." He spits at you, the murderous expression in his eyes scaring the life out of your soul. "You locked the reactor, didn't you?"

You blink, really regretting doing that now. But you had locked the reactor as a precaution, and now you were paying for it. "Answer. The. QUESTION." He snarls, staring down at you.

You nod, feeling hot tears come up to your eyes. He glares at you, and flings you against the wall, pointing at the control panel. "Unlock it."

Stumbling to your feet, you do just that, holding back your violent sobbing. The second it's finished, he slams you aside, picks up the horrifyingly long sword of his, and storms inside.

You can't hold it back anymore, and you vomit in fear, tears flowing down your face. The fear, all of it, was overwhelming. I never wanted to join Shinra. How did my life come to this point? And now, my life is over-

There's a hand on your face. You can feel it, the same leather that had covered your mouth earlier. "Stop crying." He snaps, lifting you up by the arm. "I won't kill you."

You shake your head rapidly, looking for an exit, but he ignores you. "You never wanted to join Shinra." He whispers into your ear. "I know that. My mother can help ." You're still crying as he continues.

"No one will know you're gone. What do you have to lose?"

What do I have to lose?

Does 500 words still count as a drabble? Yeah, I'm just gonna say it does.
