Don't own it.

Really short this time. :/ Ah well. Least in this one, Cissnei's not hurt and/or dead. Enjoy.

Cissnei crossed her arms over her chest and glared down at the man sprawled and leaking blood across her living room floor.

"What are you doing here, Genesis?" she demanded coolly, trying not to wince at the amount of scarlet liquid pooling beneath him.

He tilted his head just enough to look at her and gave a weak, half-hearted smile.

"Thought I'd dye the carpet." He coughed, cringing with the effort to speak. Cissnei rolled her eyes and took a step forward, then bent down and hoisted one of his arms around her narrow shoulders.

"You're paying for new carpeting." She informed him, dragging him to his feet and into the bedroom. "And new sheets."

He gave a rough laugh as she released his arm, allowing him to collapse onto the pillows. She glowered at him, and reached for her shuriken where it lay on top of the dresser, turning it over and popping an orb of materia out of its slot.

"Why did you come here?"

For a moment, he was silent, watching her roll the materia between her fingers, and then his eyes flicked up to meet hers. He moved restlessly, then winced, hand going to his copiously bleeding chest. He sighed.

"Are you going to let me die, Cissnei?"

She hissed, the materia lighting up in her hand.

"I should have left you on the floor."
