[01Attack of the Silver Haired Men! Oh Shit, This Can't Be Good…

"Cloud Strife where the hell are you?" I cursed looking at my phone.

Cloud was supposed to call me 20 minutes ago with information on the Geostigma. I flipped my phone closed and hopped back on my black bike Cloud, and Vincent, got me. I revved the engine and headed in the direction Cloud was supposed to be coming from.

I drove out of the ruins of old Midgar heading towards where Cloud was supposed to be. I kept driving on until I saw a black creature running at me. I pulled one of my Ring Blades off my back and cut the creature in half. It disappeared in black dust. In the distance I saw more of those black things and I could hear motorcycle engines.

Cloud... I thought

I raced towards the motorcycles, sure enough, to see Cloud and two other people fighting on motorbikes. From the looks of it Cloud was losing, only because his Geostigma.

"Cloud!" I yelled, racing towards the group

"Eris!" He yelled back "Get away"

"Like hell. You're losing the fight" I said

"Where's Mother?" A short sliver haired guy said racing next to Cloud and slashing at him

"We know you hid her Brother" Another guy said but he had long silver hair

Brother?! I thought

The one guy with long hair kept shooting at Cloud while I fought with the other guy. I was swinging my Ring Blade at him while he blocked it with the stun gun on his arm. The guy with the long hair flipped over Cloud's bike and shot Cloud's face, hitting above his left eye. The shot mostly hit his goggle so there wasn't a lot of damage. Just a scratch.

"Cloud!" I yelled and the guy knocked my Ring Blade out of my hand

He took a swing at me with his stun gun but I blocked the attack with my katana. The two guys then went back to fighting Cloud.

More of the black creatures were closing in on me and I braced myself but as they were about to jump on me, they all disappeared in black smoke. I looked around to see who stopped them and I saw another guy with silver hair, on the ledge, smirking. He didn't look as old as the other two; he looked around my age, maybe older.

The other two smirked as well and turned around, heading back to the guy on the cliff. Cloud parked his bike a ways away from mine and looked up at the guy as well.

He looked at me and smirked even more before mounting his bike and riding off.

"Cloud, are you okay?" I asked, running over to him

"I'm fine. And you?" He asked

I nodded and looked around for my ring blade. I saw it over by a rock. I went over and grabbed it.

"So, do we follow them?" I asked

"No, I'm going to go see Reno. Tifa called me and told me Reno wanted to see me" Cloud said

"I see. I think I'll head back to Seventh Heaven to check up on Tifa and the others" I lied

"Sure, I'll meet you back there" Cloud said

Cloud rode away on his motorbike towards where he was supposed to meet Reno.

I headed towards where the group of people attacked us went. I wanted to get more information on "Mother". So, I followed them.

I followed a few tire marks, and they led me right to the Forgotten City.

The Forgotten City? I wonder why there chose to hide here? Oh well I thought and shut the motor off. I parked my bike a ways away from where I thought the group would be, in the middle. I was right. They were in the middle of the City, at a huge statue or something that looked like a shell. Right in front of it, was a lake. The same lake where Cloud had 'buried' Aerith.

I sneaked closer to where the group was, behind the shell thing, there was a one-story house. Not very big, but not very small either. Just the right size for three or four people. I was hiding behind a tree, so that they wouldn't notice me.

"Yazoo, you'll go get the kids" The youngest one who was on the cliff said

The long haired one nodded.

Okay, so he's Yazoo. Now, who are the other two? I wondered

"Loz, you'll go search for Mother" The youngest one said

The short haired nodded. "And you, Kadaj?" Loz asked

"I'm going to see the president" He smirked

The president? Rufus ShinRa? Heh, 'Kadaj' has something in store for him. The president was killed two years ago when the ShinRa Electrical Building collapsed. I smirked

I stepped forward again, hoping to hear more, when I stepped on a branch.

Oh shit, this can't be good! I mentally slapped myself

"What was that?" Kadaj asked

"Not sure," Yazoo replied

The three split up and looked around, Yazoo heading my way.

When Yazoo was looking away, I made a run for it, back to my bike. I went for another tree, almost hiding behind it, when a bullet hit the tree, next to my head.

"Found you" Yazoo said "Brother!" He yelled

Yazoo walked over to me "You're that woman that was with Big Brother. Tell me, what do you know of Mother?" He demanded

"Mother?" I asked "I don't know of a 'Mother'" I said

Kadaj and Loz walked over.

"Well, well. If it isn't Big Brother's little girlfriend" Kadaj said

"Uh, no. I'm not his girlfriend. Just a friend. He's not my type" I said

Kadaj smirked and walked up to me, lifting my chin so that I was looking up at him.

"Man and I thought you were cute before. But that was at a distance. Now up close you're even cuter" Kadaj said

"How kind of you. May I go?" I asked

"Go?" Kadaj asked "I think not. You may prove useful to me"

"Wonderful" I mumbled

Kadaj and his brothers brought me to their house. It was nice. Not something I expected from guys who tried to kill me earlier. Kadaj told me to sit down on the couch, so I did. Yazoo leaned on the door, Loz stood in the middle of the room and Kadaj stood in front of me.

"So woman, what's your name?" Kadaj asked

"Why should I tell you?" I asked

"Just tell me your name" He demanded

I sighed "It's Eris" I said

"Hm, well these are my brothers Yazoo," Points to Yazoo "and Loz" Points to Loz "And I'm Kadaj" Points to himself

"Good to know" I muttered

Kadaj growled a bit at my sour attitude.

"Where's Mother?" He asked

"I don't know" I replied

"Does ShinRa have it?" Loz asked

"ShinRa?" I asked and laughing "Rufus ShinRa is dead!" I laughed

"Dead?" The three asked

"Yes, he died when the stupid ShinRa Electrical Company Building collapsed because of Him" I said

"Him?" Kadaj asked

"No one, forget it" I said

Kadaj smirked "Whatever. But, I think you have something very misunderstood. Rufus ShinRa is alive. I talked with him earlier" Kadaj said

"You what?!" I yelled

"I talked with him" Kadaj said

"No...That's not possible" I stood up from the couch and started pacing, freaking out "He died! He was dead for two years. How did he – unless he escaped at the last minute. That could have happened but why did and how did he?" I started talking with myself.

"What the hell is wrong with her?" Loz asked

"No idea" Yazoo replied

I turned to Kadaj and grabbed his shoulders, looking up at him "Are you sure you talked with him?" I asked

"Positive" Kadaj replied "Come with me when I go to talk with him if you want proof"

"No! He'll kill me!" I yelled

"Kill you?" Kadaj asked

"Yes. Kill me" I replied, dropping my hands at my side
