A/N:And I AM BACK!!! I hope you all are ready for a time-traveling-world-warping-action-packed-crossover like you never seen before! The story line is new, the characters are new, and the couple is new. But the great Final Fantasy action and oh so wonderful lemons are still here!

When I began writing this sequel, all I could think was where the hell am I going with this? All I have to run on is a 15-year-old girl with no parents living with her depressed grandpa in a bar and a Final Fantasy storyline that doesn't exist yet. Then, after ignoring the thought of this sequel for weeks I thought why only enjoy the greatness of one AWESOME animated guy when I could enjoy writing about them all. So, I'm taking the next anime in my line of story ideas and smashing it into this one, using another one of my ultimate favorite characters! Crossovers usually flop, but I'm going to try my hardest so that this one doesn't!

Disclaimer: I do not own any Final Fantasy anything. I wish I owned it all but the only thing that's mine is Riku.

Chapter One: Back in Time/Out of This World

The sobbing, the constant sobbing. A single tear spreading to thousands like a virus, completely out of his control. How he wished he could stop it. But every year was the identical to the last. All those years ago he thought he'd lost everything. And having to live through it all again, plus some, was the worst hell he could've been allotted to. But there was one thing he still had. One thing that was more important to him than even his own life.

"Grandpa!" shouted a sweet little voice. A young girl with shoulder-length black hair, around the age of fifteen, was waving her hands out the window of a long, black limo. "Grandpa! Let's go!"

Looking up from the three granite stones lying in the Shinra Cemetery, he wiped the tears from his eyes, straightened out the bouquet on the ground, and smiled.

"Sorry sweetheart. I know I promised not to cry anymore," wiping away one last tear, he stood up and dusted himself off. "I guess I just can't help it."

Cloud was still for what seemed like the longest time. His body shivering with both the cold wind and his usually well-concealed emotions. Cloud was still smiling weakly when he noticed footsteps approaching from behind him.

"Cloud? Is that you?" a voice from behind asked.

Cloud turned around to a young man with a surprised look on his face. He had long brown hair, piercing amber colored eyes, and two small bouquets of blue flowers in his hand.

"K-Kisuke?" Cloud stuttered.

"It's been a while…" Kisuke added. "Thirteen years?"

"Yeah…"

"You don't look a bit different then you did back then," Kisuke exclaimed, setting down his flowers on two of the three graves.

"Grandpa!" the girl whined from the street.

"I'm coming!" Cloud shouted back.

"Grandkid?" Kisuke questioned.

"Yeah, that's her."

Kisuke smiled. "You shouldn't keep her waiting."

He made his way to the limo slowly, waving back to Kisuke, and crawling in through the open door.

"I thought you'd never move!" the girl moaned. "Reno-sama was going to take me to the park today."

"Scoot in some Cloud," the man outside the limo ordered.

"Sorry…" Cloud moved in closer to his granddaughter as the man closed the door. "Well that's great Riku…"

"Grandpa…"

"What?"

"Reno-sama will be upset if we're late."

"Please stop calling him that," Cloud exclaimed, buckling his seatbelt. "You should stop looking up to him so much."

"Reno-sama told me you only say that stuff because you've always had a stick up your ass," Riku said innocently.

"Riku! Watch your mouth!" Cloud scolded.

"You swear all the time."

"Yeah, but…" Cloud growled before looking out the window and back to the graveyard. Kisuke was still kneeling by the gravestones.

After a few quiet minutes the limo stopped. The driver came back and opened the door. Cloud and Riku stepped outside where Rufus and some of his Turks were waiting.

"Mr. Shinra!" Riku squealed, running up to give Rufus a hug.

Cloud rolled his eyes, his arms crossed over his chest. Rufus smiled and waved to the driver who was still standing outside the car. "Thanks for bringing Cloud. You can head back."

The driver nodded and left as he was told. Rufus continued smiling as he watched the limo leave his sight.

"What do you want Rufus?" Cloud asked, watching Reno give his granddaughter a playful handshake. "And why'd you call me all the way out here?"

Riku gave Reno a big hug, smiling, and answered for Rufus. "To talk about the guys with the bones on their faces, right?"

"Reno, can you take her down to the water," Rufus asked sternly, looking toward the beach behind them.

Reno nodded and left with Rude not too far behind him. Rufus headed over to a nearby picnic table and motioned for Cloud to follow. Cloud took a seat on the damp, cracked wood, listening intently.

"I didn't want you to have to head all the way out to Healin," Rufus explained. "You think I don't know what day it is?"

Cloud relinquished his stern expression and stared at the knots in the wood's surface.

"I figured you'd be visiting Akira today anyway. This was closer…"

"Thanks…" Cloud managed to mumble.

"This actually has something to do with her…"

Cloud shot up from his downward gaze in an instant. He stood up and backed away from the table.

"The computer that sent Akira back in time…" Rufus began.

"Shut-up!" Cloud shouted.

"Cloud, listen to me…"

"I told you to shut the hell up! Stop screwing with me!" Cloud bellowed angrily. "Akira's dead! Dead, got it! And I don't want to hear about that damned machine anymore!"

"Cloud, this is important," Rufus exclaimed. "I've had many researchers take a look at it. We couldn't figure out how to travel through time but…"

Cloud stayed tense, wishing to disappear without running away like a coward.

"…Right when we thought we were getting somewhere, some strange men appeared out of nowhere. They all had…well, what looked like bones…on their faces."

"How many?" Cloud wondered.

"Thirteen at the least," Tseng answered from behind Rufus. "And they're no pushovers. They moved so quickly that they seemed invisible…we had no time."

Cloud's eyes widened, "They're that fast?"

Tseng nodded.

"So you want me to find them?"

"Yes, and figure out why they're here. All we know now is just from observation," Rufus explained. "They seem to be either killing or kidnapping anyone with the slightest amount of power within them."

"This means they'll be after you, Tifa, and even Riku…" Tseng added.

Cloud's gaze shifted downward in a swift, somber motion. Rufus and Tseng remained silent, allowing Cloud to soak in the information. After some time Cloud shifted on his feet, looking like he was about ready to leave.

"What am I supposed to do?" Cloud asked to no one in particular.

Tseng remained still.

"I can assure you of one thing…" Rufus began. "Riku won't want to remain here without you while you fight, no matter how many excuses you give her."

Cloud ran a hand down his face, looking back up seriously.

"How many of these people have you seen?" he questioned.

"Two, face-to-face. A small one, maybe twenty-five. And a larger one, I'd say he was around 20," Tseng answered. "Both seemed unusually powerful."

"They're that young?" Cloud asked in surprise.

Tseng nodded, "If they're all as similar as we believe."

"Damnit!" Cloud growled, abruptly turning away.

"What are you going to do, Cloud?" Rufus wondered.

Cloud scowled and replied sharply, "I'm going to go home."

Rufus looked at Cloud in shock. Cloud took a few steps toward Riku, ignoring Rufus' expression.

"Riku! Let's go!" he ordered.

Riku nodded from the slow moving water and began to walk back up the beach with Reno and Rude following her.

"Cloud, you've got to be kidding me! Don't you understand how urgent this is!?" Rufus shouted, as Cloud waited impatiently for Riku to arrive.

"Leave us out of it. I'm done with Shinra…" Cloud finished, walking off with his granddaughter. "…and I'm done with you…"

Rufus was left in utter confusion as the two left his sight.

Riku walked along side Cloud with her hands behind her back. After a long, awkward silence Riku stepped in front of him.

"What was all of that about anyway?" Riku asked, putting her hands in her sweatshirt's pockets.

"Nothing," Cloud replied. "Nothing at all."

End of Chapter One: Sorry it's a little short, but that's all my memory could manage to recollect after my computer decided to destroy the original copy. The next one will be longer by a couple pages (as of Microsoft Word pages), I promise!
