CloudxReaderxKadaj-A Soldier or A Monster?Pt.3

Kadaj watched from atop of his motorcycle as Yazoo and Loz went after Cloud. He smirked as he thought about how Cloud would react after finding out that he was holding a friend of his hostage. But then..would Cloud even care?  He wondered that as well.

Meanwhile, Yazoo and Loz were confronting said blonde male. Cloud was fighting them off as best as he could. He couldn't help but wonder though..were these the same guys that attacked you..? He glared at them from behind his shaded glasses. Yazoo smirked.

"I think he's figured it out....about his...little friend..."he says.

"Oh, the girl that also wouldn't say where mother was."Loz chimed in.

"_______.."Cloud mumbled under his breath. So he was right. These two did have something to do with you? "Where have you taken her..?" he asked coldly.

"Hmph, tell us where you hid Mother and we'll tell you.."Yazoo explained.

"I don't know any Mother of yours.."Cloud responded.

"Well then..I guess we don't know where your friend is either.."

"Yeah! The one with the loud mouth!"Loz grinned. Cloud glared at the two and withdrew his sword, prepared to strike. However, the two brothers stopped at the sight of Kadaj raising his hand.

"Well..guess playtime is over..for now.."Yazoo groaned, turning and driving back towards him.

"Hmph..you got lucky this time..but your friend won't be so.."Loz grunted as he followed Yazoo. Cloud glared back at them but kept riding. He knew he'd only get killed if he went after them now. as much as he hated it, he wouldn't be able to save you quite yet.

"Just hang on a little longer ______..."he whispered as he drove off.

Meanwhile, you were stuck inside the hideout of the three idiot musketeers, Kadaj, Loz, and Yazoo. They had moved you from the pretty cavern to a dreary, drippy cabin in the woods. The door was locked and the windows were barricaded to make sure you didn't escape. However, they truly under estimated your strength.

You spent a lot of your time training with Cloud and Tifa, and were very strong. Probably stronger for your own good but whatever. You slammed your fists against the wooden boards that were blocking the windows. One after another, they cracked until finally they gave way and crumbled to the ground.

You smirked.

"Sayonara you dorks."you say as you begin to hoist yourself over the window sill.

"Oh..is that really what you think of us..?" You stop and tense at that slow voice. Sighing, you look back to see Yazoo and Loz standing directly behind you.

"Well..you'll never catch me!!"you say, hopping out the window, but only to land directly into the arms of Kadaj.

"I think you'll find...that you've been caught."he smirks. You scowl at him and cross your arms.

"Dammit.." Kadaj carried you back inside and tossed you to the floor, letting you hit it with a thud. You wince and sit up, looking up at the silver-haired male. "What do you want with me? Why don't you just let me go?!"

"Because you're indebted to us..You owe us your life."Kadaj responds.

"Well I wouldn't have to if you guys hadn't put my life in danger first!"you retort.

"Hmph, perhaps. But it is what it is...Now..as for what we want from you...I find it very simple...You see..in exchange for us not killing you..you will stay here and obey our every command. You will tend to our every need like a good little maid or..we will just kill you. Simple as that..."

"I honestly don't know which is worse.."you grumble.

"What a mouth you have on you...That will come to be an issue in the future. Now..for your first command...draw me a bath.." Kadaj smirked. You tense at his request.

"Draw you a bath...Boy I don't wanna see you naked!!_{or maybe I do but..} Draw it yourself!!"you tell him.

"Hmph...Yazoo."

"Right.."Yazoo nodded to Kadaj and walked over to you. He pulled out his gun and pressed the barrel of it to your temple with his finger on the trigger. "Just so you know...it won't be quick and painless...."He tells you. You tense up and glare at the male.

"...Fine...." Sighing in defeat, you stand and walk upstairs to the bathroom, slamming the door behind you. When you were finally alone again, you fall to your knees and pull out a pendant that had been tucked within your shirt. The pendant opened to reveal a picture of you and Cloud standing next to one another. You remember how you had to bribe him just so he would take the picture. "Cloud...why haven't you come to save me yet..?"

As you got up and ran the hot water for Kadaj's bath, you wondered this over and over again. Where was Cloud? Why was he taking so long to come for you? Was he even coming at all..? Did he care..?

"I'll always come for you ______. No matter what..."

"Huh? Cloud didn't tell you? He left last night..I don't know where he's going or when he's coming back.."

"Still no word from Cloud? Hm..I'm starting to think he may never come  back.."

"Cloud..where are you...?"

"I'll always come for you.."

"Always.."

"_______..!" You jump and  inhale sharply as you're pulled from your thoughts. Looking around, you notice that Kadaj was standing in the bathroom beside you. "You planning to flood the bathroom? The tub is nearly over filling.." he says, reaching over to turn the faucet off. You stare at him for a moment before looking down.

"Sorry..."you mumble.

"Hmm..What thought had you so distracted...or are you pretending to be spacey in hopes of getting a free ticket out of here..?"he asks. You don't respond, nor look at him as he undressed and sank down into the bathwater. With his arms  resting on both sides of the tub, Kadaj props himself up so that his head can tilts back against the edge of the tub comfortably.

You could feel his gaze on you as he awaited an answer.

"I'm just tired..."you breath out with a soft sigh.

"Hmm..."Kadaj's lips pursed together tightly as if he were trying to figure out if your answer was the truth or a lie to get him to stop asking you questions. "I see...But you've spent all day here by yourself..sure you had gotten some sleep while we were away. Or were you too busy trying to break the wooden boards on the windows to notice your own exhaustion..?"he purred.

"That too...But I am tired now so I'm going to retire.." You nod slightly to Kadaj and begin to make your way to the door. However, the feeling of his hand latch onto your wrist tightly stopped you.

"Oh? But I didn't give you permission to leave yet...Now sit down."Kadaj's tone had suddenly changed from arrogant to menacing. The menacing tone in which you feared. Not bothering to object, you do as you're told and sit on the side of the tub with your back to him. As nice and chiseled as Kadaj's upper torso looked, you rather not see the rest of him. You weren't ready to see a full on naked man, even you had caught glimpses of Cloud's butt as he got dressed occasionally.

Oh, there you go again....Your mind wandering back to Cloud and it seems...you weren't the only one.

"Tell me...what is your relation with Cloud...?"Kadaj asks, snapping you out of your thoughts. Averting your eyes to the floor, you shrug.

"We're just friends..."you tell him.

"Hmph, just friends..? Why do I find that hard to believe..?"he scowled.

"Why do you..?"you retort.

"Don't you start sassing me...."Kadaj growled and leaned back against the tub once more in a huff. "I can tell he takes up most of your thoughts..In fact, you were probably thinking of him earlier, which is why the tub nearly over flowed. Am I right?"

You didn't respond for a moment as you thought of what to say next.

"Why do you care...?Why don't you just kill me and get it over with..?"

"Because I simply enjoy it.."he responded.

"You're insane..."

"Perhaps..but in this world _____..you'll find that everybody is just a little bit mad.." You look over at Kadaj with a scowl.

"How did you figure out my name..I never told you what it was..?"you ask. Kadaj's smirk widened.

"Oh..a little birdie happened to mention it."he replied. You growled and stood up straight.

"I'm retiring. Good night!"You bellow before storming out the bathroom. You expected Kadaj to grab you and pull you back once more..but he didn't. No, instead he just watched you go with that sly smirk on his face that you hated so much.

"Playing hard to get...heh..I'm game..."
