Just thought I'd give you some info before you start reading this is my second fic so I'm pretty new at this so you gotta give me a chance, I am open to criticism but I prefer helpful comments. This fic is written in the 1st person so I will show 'my' individual thoughts with (*Thought*) oh one last thing enjoy the fic!

The huge sword cut the creature there was a roar, the creature stumbled back it had two deformed heads, one white and one black, a ying yang. The blonde haired man stepped back and brought the large sword back to a ready position.

"Cloud! Need some help?" A large man said as he entered the room.

"No Barret I'm fine I can handled one of these things" Cloud said as he sliced both of the creature's heads off with two accurate successive cuts.

"Not bad" Barret said with an impressed tone. He walked over to Cloud and placed his human hand onto his shoulder and then walked away.

"Where do these things keep getting in" Cloud thought aloud as he walked away I said to myself.

"The same way I did" I followed Cloud out of the basement of the Nibelheim mansion which for the past year since the defeat of Sephiroth has been AVALANCHE HQ.

"Just another Ying-yang" Cloud shouted as he reached the top of the spiral staircase unbeknown the fact there was someone behind him. As he closed the sliding metal door at the top I stayed inside until he walked away then, I snuck out.

"Where do they keep coming from?" Tifa asked Cloud.

"I don't know." Cloud replied downheartedly I could see from my position at the top of the staircase in the entrance hall. I then decided to speak my mind, but as I stood up to say my piece I felt the point of a shuriken being placed against my back.

"Don't move" Yuffie said triumphantly "You're not getting away".

"I don't need to get away you've let me go" I said.

"No I ha." She started as I activated my Stop Materia. I jumped the satires and landed amongst Cloud, Tifa Barret, Vincent and Reeve.

"Who the £"E% are you?" Barret screamed at me I stayed on the floor for a couple of seconds until the pain in my ankles left. I stood up and looked around at the shocked AVALANCHE members.

I stand about 5'8" with short spiky blonde hair gelled flat, natural mako blue eyes. Wearing a black Turk uniform I have a sword on each hip and one on my back.

"A Turk?" Cloud asked drawing the Ultima weapon, at this time Barret loaded his gun-arm and Reeve got out Rufus' shotgun and pointed it at me, I drew my two Murasame swords from my hip sheaths.

"Stop-all!" I shouted every one froze except Cloud who I then realised was equipped with a ribbon.

"Who the hell are you?" Cloud asked readying his weapon.

"Someone more important then you think" I said and lunged at Cloud blocked his attempt at a counter slice from the sword and kicked him down.

"Sorry about this" I apologized and ran for the door but, I didn't leave I came straight back in and hid so I could hear what they were saying.

"Who was he?" Yuffie asked when the effects of stop wore off.

"I don't know but he was fast for a kid, he was using Murasame swords, two of them."

"WIAT!!!" Yuffie screamed "Did you say he used Murasame swords? They're made in Wutai."

"Yeah, so what?" Barret said sounding quite annoyed at the ninjas interruption.

"That might mean he's from Wutai" Tifa chimed in.

(*Hey not as stupid as they look*)

"Right, let's head to Wutai and ask around then" Said AVALANCHE'S leader. They all began to walk towards the front door I took this opportunity to hop out of a window and find the Highwind, then it caught my eye; it was in the Nibel mountains I groaned suddenly feeling less enthusiastic but the sounds of Cloud and Co.'s voices made me run in that general direction.

I was running towards the Highwind, perspective making it look bigger as I went along. After a while I stopped and looked up at the airship in awe. I was a lot bigger then I thought as I began to walk towards it again a large stabbing pain suddenly hit me in the back I fell to the ground un able to move I tried but I then realised it was one of those things that begin with K and it had injected a paralysing agent into my body. I felt its spiked nose start to drive its self into my right arm then. BANG! A shot rang out and echoed through the mountains and hung in the air for a while, feeling started to return to my body a few seconds later as I rose to my knees I looked round to see who my saviour was, the man was none other than ex-AVALANCHE member Vincent Valentine.

"You looked like you needed some help" The vampire like man said.

"Err yeah thanks" I then felt like a moron.

"Are you heading for the Highwind?" He questioned.

"Maybe, wossit to you?" Feeling more moronic now then ever I placed my hand on my right sword. Stepped back so I had more chance to react to and attacks.

"I assume you're the kid Cloud and the others are looking for?" (*How'd he know!?!?*) "I heard them talking about you they don't think that highly of you, you know that right?"

"Yeah I kicked their arses earlier".

"No you didn't, you used a time Materia." I had no response Vincent offered his hand to help me stand I accepted and rose to my feet. We began to walk further towards the Highwind neither of us saying anything to the other, I had a thought running through my head begging to be asked, I could hold on any longer.

"Whythefookdidyouquitavalanche?" there was a long unnerving silence until finally Vincent muttered the word.

"Lucrecia." I nodded as a response as to say 'I understand'.

"Why are you here?" He asked me, voice still full of sadness.

"I've found a way to return something they lost" I said with a smile creeping up my face he nodded and smiled also (*Does he know??? No. no one can know I haven't told anyone*) Then we arrived at the Highwind and began to climb the rope ladder that led to the deck.
