Challenge: 40, Hidden
Title: Morning Ritual
Word Count: 305
It was a typical Saturday morning for Cloud Strife. He was up at the crack of dawn, his hair tousled from a good night's sleep, and still in his pajamas, consisting of just boxers. He entered the kitchen, his bare feet patted against the white tile to the fridge. Whilst pouring himself an ice cold glass of milk, Leon entered, his appearance identical to Cloud's.
"Ready for our ritual?" the taller man asked.
Cloud nodded furiously. "Of course! There's no Saturday morning if there's no milk and cookies to eat while watching cartoons!"
"Then I guess there's no Saturday." Leon's voice had gone from excited to anger in a matter of seconds. Cloud's jublience immediatly came to a halt and he bounded over to the cabinet where the Oreos had been. In their place was a note. Snatching it from it's spot, Leon opened the note and read aloud.
'Leon and Cloud,
You have one hour to find the cookies before they're gone forever! Starting now, GO!'
~Yuffie'
In an instant the boys took off in different directions of the house, searching high and low in every room. fifty-five minutes later, they found themselves back in the kitchen, both irritated and hungry.
"What now?" Cloud asked. "We've looked everywhere, and with five mintues to spare."
Leon was about to throw in the towel as well before he realized. "Not everywhere." Before giving Cloud a chance to argue, Leon was running up the stairs, the blond tailing him. Without knocking he ran into Aerith's room with a loud "Ah-HA!" He pointed at her and Yuffie, both of the girls lying on the bed, and sure enough there was an empty case of Oreos.
Cloud shoved passed Leon and into the bedroom. "But we had five minutes left!"
Aerith and Yuffie laughed before the ladder spoke. "We got hungry."
