OC-centric fic

For some time I've been working on a fic to explain how Azazel Rakesh escaped alive when he was buried in the avalanche in Another Simple Mission. I keep putting it aside and then taking it up again. Recently I took it up and found that it kept coming. I always wanted it to be a character study and exploration, and it's definitely become that. Since the only characters in it are two OCs of mine, and canon is only mentioned in passing, I'm not posting it to FF.net. Possibly it would be of interest to some people here who otherwise don't follow my FF7 stuff, but I don't know. I rarely write any kind of OC fic, as most here know, and I'm rather proud of this.

A note on the names, based on information from http://www.20000-names.com :

Gunju = an African Ganda name meaning "wild cat"
Azazel = a Hebrew name meaning "the scapegoat"

If anyone knows Hebrew, I'd be interested in knowing the correct pronunciation of his name. I say "uh-ZAY-zul", but I might be totally murdering it. XD;

EDIT: Apparently if I watched Supernatural, I'd know how to pronounce it. Haha. Amusing. **has never been interested in that show.**

Their family name Rakesh is a Hindi name meaning "lord of the night", if anyone wants to know. They're such colorful villains.
