Ex-SOLDIER
I
Ex-SOLDIER?
Cloud's phone went off. He swiftly pulled it out of his pocket and answered. "Cloud. Who is this?"
"Old Pal!" came the obnoxious voice of the red-haired Turk Reno.
"Reno, what's up?" said Cloud seriously because he usually didn't get calls from Reno.
Reno started to talk, but Tifa walked into the room and said, "Who is it?"
Cloud put his index finger to his lip and said to the phone, "Reno, say that again?"
"Ugh, old pal, your losin' it, aren't you?" he said and then laughed into the phone. "I said that we received reports of an ex-SOLDIER gone bad in Edge."
"And you want my help?"
"OF COURSE!" Reno replied so loudly Cloud had to move the phone from his ear and Tifa smirked. When he put the phone back to his ear, Reno was saying "You're the best SOLDIER we have! Only, in fact, haha!"
"Reno, ex-SODIER!"
"Yeah yeah, whatever. Anyway, you coming?" Reno said impatiently.
Cloud covered the end of his phone you talk into. "Tifa, he wants me to help stop a supposed ex-SOLDIER gone bad in Edge."
"Wow, I didn't think there were anymore."
"Hmph, neither did I." Cloud looked away.
"You should go Cloud. It'll get you back in the action!" Tifa exclaimed.
Cloud thought about it. "Alright." He started to talk into his phone again. "Reno, I'll come. Where will I meet you?"
"Just outside your door," and he started to laugh again.
Cloud hurried over to the window, pulled back the curtain, and saw a helicopter right on the street outside their building. People were staring at a happy looking Reno and Rude, who were leaning against the chopper. Reno looked up, saw Cloud, and waved, smiling. Tifa looked outside too and giggled.
"Alright on my way," said Cloud simply.
"Oh, and I brought that creepy guy you work with. What's his name? Vince?
"Vincent Valentine?"
"Yeah! Yeah, that's the one!"
Cloud looked back down and sure enough, he saw Vincent climb out of the helicopter.
"How'd you get him?"
"Well, we actually ran into him, and he asked us what we were doing flying a chopper so low, and in a city at that, and we told him we were coming to get you, so he said he had noting else to do so he'd help."
"Wow," Cloud stated simply. "Anyway, on my way down."
"Oh, and pack light, just in case. A Buster Sword will do just fine. Don't bring any more. We have supplies." With that Reno hung up.
"He sounded kind of serious before he hung up," said Cloud as he put away his phone. "Very un-Reno like."
"Don't worry about it," reassured Tifa, touching Cloud's arm lightly.
"I gotta get my sword." Cloud went to his room and opened his closet to take out his favorite Buster Sword. Then him and Tifa went to the door.
"Bye Cloud," said Tifa before Cloud opened the door and she game him a meaningful kiss on the cheek.
"Bye." They hugged, and then Cloud stepped out into the afternoon sun and approached the chopper.
"All set?" asked Rude.
"Yeah. Let's go." Cloud walked into the open section of the helicopter and sat down. Reno and Rude went into the cockpit and Vincent sat down across from Cloud.
"How ya been, Vincent?" asked Cloud as Vincent sat down.
"Can't complain," said Vincent simply. "And you?"
"I guess I've been okay.
There was silence between the two as the helicopter took off and rose above the buildings and started to fly away, leaving the city behind them.
"So how come you're coming?" asked Cloud.
"Well," said Vincent. "I was in town and I saw those two flying the chopper around and then I noticed they were heading to where you live. I stopped them, and I thought I'd see what this ex-SOLDIER business is about. I always figured you were the last one really."
"Yeah, that's what I thought too."
