The Lounge


Happy Birthday, Messiah!

*The entire cast of Final Fantasy VII are sitting in a big circle talking when Messiah walks in. Once she does they all stop talking and look bored*

Messiah: *says cheerfully* Hi guys! What�s up?

Reno: Nothing.

Messiah: *looks a little dissapointed* Oh. Well, does anyone know what today is? It�s a special day.

Sephiroth: A special day? The fourth of July already passed, so it�s not that...

Cloud: There�s only one holiday in July, so there�s nothing else to celebrate.

Yuffie: Yeah, today is like another totally boring day in the Lounge.

Messiah: *looks very dissapointed* Oh. Well, it wasn�t important anyway. I have to go to the library to work. See ya later. *drags herself out the door*

Aeris: Thank the gods! I thought she was NEVER going to leave!

Tifa: *turns to Cloud* Alright, who�s doing what for her party?

Cloud: You, Aeris, and I are going to get the presents. The Turks are going to go get the decorations. Nanaki, Vincent, and Barret, you three keep an eye on Messiah to make sure she doesn�t do anything to find out.

Sephiroth, Rufus, and Yuffie: What about us?

Cloud: *looks at them, then places his head in his hands* I can�t believe I�m saying this... You three will go get the food. Lifestream help us...

*Half an hour later...*

Vincent: This is demeaning.

Barret: Whadaya mean?

Vincent: We�re the most conspicuous bunch, and Cloud places us in the a library in the real world.

Nanaki: I suggest we immerse ourselves behind one of those shelves to keep our presences from alerting Messiah.

Barret: Huh? The hell you sayin�?

Vincent: He means hide behind the shelves.

*They start walking over to the shelves when Messiah look up from what she�s doing and looks in their direction*

Vincent: Oh shit...Um, get down!

*Cloud, Tifa, and Aeris are continueing shopping for Messiah�s presents. All the while Aeris and Tifa are competing for Clou�d attention*

Aeris: *holding up a necklace with a mini-sword on it* Wouldn�t Messiah just loooove this? *bats her eyelashes at Cloud*

Tifa: *clenches her fist and grits her teeth while looking at Aeris, and then turns all sweet once Cloud look at her* Oh Cloud, I found this Gundam Wing shirt for her. Aren�t I fabulous? *says this in a sultry tone*

Cloud: *looking confused between their attention* Uh, they�re both great presents.

Cloud: *thinking: If they�d put half as much energy into their fighting as they did flirting with me... Oh yeah, I wonder how the three troublemaker are doing?*

*At the exact same moment as Cloud is thinking that, Sephiroth, Yuffie, and Rufus are causing quite a scene in the grocery store*

Sephiroth: *pushing the grocery cart through the store with his Masamune in the kids� seat* Let�s see...she like anything chocolate. I�ll go get some cookies.

*Shoppers jump out of the way of Sephiroth. Sephiroth gets to the cookie isle and sweeps half the shelf of chocolate chip cookies in the the baset with his Masamune*

Yuffie: *says while stuffing whole packages of soda into her �arm guard sheild�* Hurry up before they kick us out!

Sephiroth: *glares at her* Quiet, brat. Must shop.

Yuffie: *shrugs* Whatever. Hey Rufus, how you doing?

Rufus: *barely manages to push the other two shopping carts Sephiroth filles up* Coming. Damn, this is heavy. What about liquer? Can�t have a good party without that.

Yufie: Hi, I�m Earth have we met? Messiah is turning 15 today. She�s UNDERAGE and hates alchohol.

Rufus: Damn!

Sephiroth: *runs like a crazy man to the cake section* Baker, make me a cake as fast as you can.

Baker: *turns around and sees Sephiroth and his 3 full carts and thinks: This guy has a sweet tooth!* May I help you?

Sephiroth: Yes. I want a 6 foot long chocolate fudge cake. Put it in that cart when you�re done. *gestures to the almost full cart with his Masamune* How long does it take to bake one?

Baker: *eyes the long sword and gulps* For you, half an hour.

*And the last group of all, the Turks, have been having quite a fun time with the decorations*

Rude: *with a party hat on his head* I LOVE these things!

Tseng: *looking quite embarassed* Can we leave now...please?

Reno: Of course not. We need streamers. Hey Elena, what do you think? Blue or purple?

Elena: Both of course.

Reno: *rolls her eyes* Baby, if you keep saying both we�ll have too much.

Elena: Quite calling me baby!

Reno: *sarastically* You don�t like it?

Elena: *Sarcastically* No, I love it!

Tseng: I sometimes wonder why I agreed to being their leader...

*And 1 and 1/2 hours later...*

Cloud: Alright, everyone here?

Tifa: Sephiroth isn�t.

Cloud: What happened to him? I thought he was with you two? *looks pointedly at Yuffie and Rufus*

Rufus: Well, you see we had a little prob-

Yufie: He�s waiting for the cake.

Rufus: You interupted me!

Yufie: So?

Rufus: *points his shotgun at Yuffie* Apologize.

Yuffie: *sweatdrops* Heh, sorry.

*Sephiroth walks in the frot door carrying the six foot long cake*

Aeris: My, my, someone sure has a sweet tooth.

Sephiroth: Yes. Yes indeed.

Sephiroth: *looks around* Where are our three freaks?

Cloud: They better get back soon...

*Meanwhile, at the library...*

*Vincent, Barret, and Nanaki somehow managed to hide themselves from Messiah, but not the children in the library*

Nanaki: No, I am not a dog. No, I am not a cat.

Kid #1: Then what are you?

Nanaki: I am a species without a name.

Kid #1: I�m taking you home with me!

Kid #2: Are you a vampire?

Vincent: NO, I am not.

Kid #2: I think you�re lying. Why are you out during the day? You should only be out at night.

Vincent: *clenches his fist and grits his teeth then yells* DAMMIT, I AM NOT A VAMPIRE!!!

*All the grown ups in the library stare in the direction of Vincent*

Kid #2: Um..okay. *runs away*

Kid #1: *tries to drag Nanaki away*

Nanaki: *growls, and tries to bite the kid*

Kid #1: UWAAA! *runs away*

Barret: Thought you was peaceful?

Nanaki: It was the easiest option at the time. Shall we head off now?

Messiah: *speaking to librarian* I�m signing out now. I�ll see you next week.

Librarian: Thanks for coming in.

Messiah: You�re welcome.

Vincent: Impossible...she can actually be polite and nice! She�s not a slave driver here!

*Messiah leaves the library and gets heads to the portal that leads to the Internet. Vincent, Barret, and Nanaki follow her*

Messiah: Huh, I must have forgotten to close it. I�m getting careless. *after a moment of silence she bursts out crying* They forgot my birthday! How could they? I though they of all people would remember it.

Vincent: *getting uncomfortable* Lets go. Quickly.

*The three sneak into the portal while Messiah keeps crying quietly*

*Back in the Lounge...*

Sephiroth: Alright, that�s it. I�m going after them. *teleports out of there*

Reno: Let�s get the decor-

Sephiroth: *telports back in* Touch the cake and die. *teleports out*

*Vincent, Barret, and Nanaki come in through the portal a second after Sephiroth leaves*

Barret: We�re back, spikehead...the hell is silver?

Cloud: *says dryly* He left to find you three.

*Outside the library at the portal...*

Messiah: *sits with her knees up to her chest and her arms wrapped around her knees finishing crying* Am I not important enough? I know I torture them but I thought they cared!

Sephiroth: *teleports in front of Messiah and sees her crying. Doesn�t know what to say* ...

Messiah: *looks up and sees Sephiroth* What are you doing in the real world? *tries to dry her eyes*

Sephiroth: ....*sloves the sleeve of his leather trenchcoat in her face* Use this.

Messiah: *wipes her eyes with it, and then blows her nose* Thanks.

Sephiroth: *cringes when she blows her nose* It is alright. Let�s go.

Messiah: Teleportation?

Sephiroth: *nods*

Messiah: *closes the portal* ...By the way, if you ever tell the others I cried I will strip the flesh from your body with a horsewhip.

Sephiroth: *says nervously* Understood.

*Messiah hangs onto Sephiroth as he teleports them back into the Lounge*

*Back in The Lounge...*

Cloud: *continues pacing* Where are they?

Tifa: *from behing a leather armchair* Quick Cloud, hide before she gets here!

Cloud: *turns the light off and hides where Tifa is hiding* All I�m saying is that they�d better get here soon...

*Sephiroth and Messiah teleport in, and Messiah pushes him away as soon as they come in*

Messiah: Why�s it so dark?

*The lights turn on and everyone jumps out*

Everyone minus Messiah(of course): SURPRISE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Messiah: *jumps and screams, then calms down* You all did this for me? A surprise party?

Rufus: Yup.

Messiah: You guys are so great! *claps a hand over her own mouth* Oh, wait, I mean--

Reno: Hah! I knew it! She like us!

Messiah: *looking defeated* Alright, I like you all. Happy?

Elena: Time to eat!

*Everyone heads over to the table to find Sephiroth attacking the food and shoveling it in his mouth*

Tseng: Er....Dig in?

Messiah: Hehe, this is my birthday episode! Aren't they the greatest? Oh yeah, I don�t own FF7 or the character. Blah blah blah. All that disclaimer crap. Hope you enjoyed this episode of the Lounge. I would really appreciate some feedback on these.
