I walked slowly, my feet echoing through the night. This place, it brought back so many memories. People were looking at me as I passed, as if for some reason something was wrong with me. Maybe it was just my imagination...

I looked at myself in a piece of reflective metal. I was about 5'11, brown eyes that had a eerie green glow in them, and shoulder length black spiky hair. I was wearing some kind of blue uniform, with two large shoulder guards over my sleeveless arms. My baggy pants were the same color as the top of my uniform.

I felt something was missing though. I couldn't put my finger on it, but there was definitely something missing.

My sword...

That's it! I had a sword... A huge sword. I reached my arm over my shoulder as if to grab the handle, knowing it wasn't there. But it was such a familiar action. Memories of me fighting with that sword came back to me.

Flashback~~~

"Hey Cloud, you gotta do better than that!" The black haired boy said with a wink.

"I'll show you better!" The blond boy replied with a grin.

The two young men clashed their swords together. The black haired boy's huge sword blocking attacks from the blonde's smaller standard ShinRa army sword.

"Hey, you're getting better, Cloud."

"Thanks-

End flashback~~~

"Damn-it!" I shouted out loud.

That blonde boy, he was about to say my name... I must find him...

Before I left, I checked myself out in the reflection again.

Not bad...

I grinned at my own thoughts.
