Lenoa- It's ok. I knew you when you were in the armed forces, Cloud. I'm Lenoa. I was a friend of Zack's and yours, but your mind kinda blocked me out. I won't hurt you.

Cloud- Like hell you won't.

Tifa- Cloud! is astonished

Lenoa- sighs So, where's lil' Seph?

Tifa- At Vincent's, we didn't want him to catch Cloud's cold.

Cloud- AAAHHHH!!! H-Ho-Hojo!

Lenoa- brings out throwing knives spins around Hojo, you stupid son-of- a. . . Hey! Nothing's there.

Cloud- gets up and nearly punches Lenoa Get OUT of here! You're dead! I KILLED you!

Lenoa- C-Cloud! Sit down! Oh gosh, this isn't good. I might have to get Zeki. . . Tifa, hold Cloud down. I'm going to give him a tranquilizer to calm him. He's hallucinating.

Tifa- Ok, ready. holds struggling Cloud down

Cloud- falls asleep

Lenoa- Tifa?

Tifa- lets go of Cloud Yeah?

Lenoa- scribbles out prescription Here. Get the medicine. I'll watch Cloud.

Tifa- Are you sure? What If he wakes up?

Lenoa- Zeki is outside town on Chocobo. I can call him on PHS.

Zeki- is breathless gets up Man! Every minute! This guy is as hard to control as that dragon I wrestled in Mt. Nibel!

Lenoa- Heh, him having Jenova cells and an overdose of Makou doesn't help either. This guy's a mercenary. Even after Meteor, this guy just can't sit still.

Tifa- walks in door I'm back! Did you have any prob. . . Oh my gosh!! What did you do?!

Cloud- has a black eye and other bruises everywhere

Zeki- cracks knuckles We wrestled.

Tifa- You WHAT?!

Lenoa- Each minute he snapped out of it and attacked either Zeki or me. He had to get Cloud to the ground so that I could give him the tranquilizer.

Tifa- Then we had better give him this medicine. shoves pill down Cloud's throat Lenoa, I might need help with him. Could you stay over?

Lenoa- Sure. Zeki, could you go bug Vincent for the day? He might want some help with Seph.

Zeki- No prob! I've been wanting to see how old he looks. He should be about five now. The age of questions. . . . voice trails off as he walks out door

Cloud- wakes up Hey! Wuz up?!

Lenoa- What?

Cloud- Wus up, Gurlfriends?! Are we having a slumber party? Let's do makeovers!

Tifa- blinks Cloud. . . are you. . . ok?
