Title: Nightmares
Challenge: [42] Invasion
Word Count: 523
Notes: Slight LeonxCloud yaoi, but nothing offending to an "EWWW!" factor. It may seem disjointed since I got a bit carried away, went over 700 words, and had to reduce it . . . LOLZ! So my spologies. Also, a note on the ages. Since I'm too lazy to really figure out the age difference between Leon and Cloud or who's older and younger, Cloud is seven, and Leon and eleven.

Cloud was famous in his little family, or what he had come to know and love as family, for watching scary movies that he knew would scare him. What he was more famous for, was having explicit, terrifying nightmares that would wake an entire block of houses with his screams.

He had gone to bed that night after watching a horrifying movie with Cid that involved Androids taking over the world. One characteristic that stuck out in his young mind, Androids never showed emotions, just like Leon.

Which led Cloud to his nightmare. An army of Androids had invaded his home, and they had come to "awaken" their newest prototype, #564, aka, Leon. They had probed him from the back of his head, and "turned him on". Before leaving to destroy everything that stood in their way they left a mission for the new weapon, "Kill everyone close to you," and it was pointed at the horrified blond boy. Leon's beautiful eyes flashed something unreadable, and that's when his gunblade magically appeared in his right hand and he was advancing towards him.

Cloud's head was rushing with emotions. Fear, panic, heartbreak, all of them roaming uncontrolably through is small slender frame. Not knowing what to do, he stayed put in his bed and cried, praying that Leon would hear his tears, and stop himself. 
But Leon didn't stop. Cloud could practically hear Leon chanting his name, as though he was merely just a sall offering to his greater cause.

"Cloud! Cloud wake-up please!"

And he did. His once bright eyes tinted with tears so much he couldn't see. Arms encircled him, and without thinking, he leaned in, crying on the bare shoulder of Leon, who just let him.

"Shhh, Cloud, It was just a nightmare, It can't hurt you now. You're okay." Leon soothed, one hand cradeling the back of the sobbing boy's head, the other running along his nude back.

"You were an android, and you had no emotions, and you, you . . ."

Leon pushed him back slightly to look him in the eyes. "I what, Cloud? What did I do?"

"You killed me!" he screamed, newly formed tears streaming from his gorgeous eyes.

Leon was awestruck. Whatever he wasn't supposed to watching really got him this time, and he wasn't sure if just words could bring him from this one, and he had to calm him before the neighbors awoke. In one swift movement Leon's lips pressed against Cloud's, and as quick as they came, that had gone, and a single tear slipped from his sorrowful eyes.

"I'm not an android now, am I?" Leon asked. Cloud shook his head, showing no real reaction to the kiss, and scooted over so that Leon could rock him back to sleep.

Through a hazy sleep Cloud said, "Goodnight, Squall."

For the first time, Leon didn't have the heart to correct him, and for the first time, relaized how much their bond meant to him, and to Cloud.

"Goonight, Cloud." And although Leon couldn't see it, he sensed Cloud's smile, and for the second time that night, a free tear fell from his eyes.

lol. I found this very amusing. I could just imagine Cid laughing his head off about 'androids'.

Cloud and his nightmares of Leon being an android. Just gotta love Hollow Bastion kids. They make me feel all warm inside whenever I read about them. ^.^
