Part 1: Beautiful Tomorrows

Part 1: Prologue: We're in SOLDIER

"Elly!!" A blonde teenager shouted, as she banged on the door in front of her. "Elly, god damn it, open the door!" She yelled again. The door opened to reveal another blonde girl, who looked like she had just gotten up. Her hair was all over the place and she was dressed in a large T-shirt, that was half hanging over one shoulder.

"What the hell Addy, it's still early." Said the girl wearily.

"What do you mean early? It's one pm."

"Yeah, early like I said." Elena told her. Adrienne sighed.

"Anyway, did you get a letter this morning?" She asked. Elena spun round to look where the mail was normally kept, on a wooden telephone table, except there was no telephone. Elena never figured out why they used it. She found a brown envelope with her name on it. She picked it up and turned back to the other girl.

"You mean this?" She asked, waving the envelope in front of Addy's face. Addy grinned.

"YES!" She shouted. "Open it! Open it!" She yelled, jumping up and down.

"Ok, ok, calm down" Elena told her. She took a corner of the envelop and ripped it open. Taking the piece of paper from inside, she unfolded it and began to read the contents.

Dear Miss Deushi,

We are delighted to inform you that a position for you as a First Class SOLDIER has been reserved...........

Elena didn't bother to read the rest. She looked at Adrienne with a goofy grin on her face.

"I got in SOLDIER" She whispered. Addy grinned even more.

"Me to!" She shrieked. She took hold of Elena's arms and started dancing about. "We got in SOLDIER, we got in SOLDIER." She started to chant. Elena stared laughing.

"We sure did."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

A couple of days later, both of the blonde haired girls were stood outside Shinra Headquarters. Elena took a deep breathe.

"This is it then."

"Yep" Adrienne chirped. "I can't wait! There better be some hot lads here." Elena started laughing.

"Trust you to think about lads." Addy grinned.

"Well that's just me all over isn't it?" She pulled Elena's arm. "Come on then! We don't wanna be late, do we now?" Elena let herself be dragged by the other girl. They made their way inside the building, to where all the other new recruits would be. As they went round a corner, Addy stopped, making Elena nearly bump into her.

"Why did you......" Elena started to say until she saw why. The area they were heading to was full of SOLDIER recruits. There were about two hundred people, mostly lads stood around, chatting amongst themselves. "Wow that's a hell of a lot of people."

"I know." Addy whispered. "I didn't know there'd be this many." Elena smiled.

"Come on then, better show all these lads up right?" Addy smiled back.

"Of course." They made their way into the crowd.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

On a inside balcony just above where all the recruits were assembled, a red haired teenager was leaning on the railings backwards, with his elbows leaning on the metal bar. From his mouth a cigarette dangled, freshly lit. He moved one hand to hold the cigarette. He puffed on it, removing it from his mouth. He then turned round and started down on the recruits. He chuckled. It was just this time last year he was in the same boat as them stood below him. He seemed so far away now. He'd gotten used to leading a cushy life as a SOLDIER, more cushier than living in the slums. Heh wonder if any girls actually got in this year, would be a change. He pushed himself off the railings and headed off to the shower room.
