Ok so Now that I have time to spare.... Here's the True Edited Ch. 1 ^-^
Summary: When Cloud is sent on a mission to stop the Wutai remnant forces that have started causing trouble he ends up becoming their prisoner. Days later, Zack is sent to save the solders and infantrymen stuck in Wutai. Will he be able to save Cloud? And what is Wutai planning to do with Cloud?
Ok so the summary isn't that good... but I don't know how to sum it up without giving the whole story away! xD
Anyway... I hope you will still read even after the crummy chapter summary
Well Enjoy! :D
DISCLAIMER: I do not own FFVII Crisis Core or any of the characters! Zack would still be with us if I did
Swoosh
The automatic door in front of me swings open as I enter the large Briefing room. The familiar sound of computers fill the room as I look around. I can sill remember the time I was given my first mission by Director Lazzard, head of SOLDER, to fight in Wutai. I turn towards the desk to find the Director sitting here calmly and I straiten up at once. It was a surprise to see him here, even 1st class didn't see him often. "This must be something very important for him to be here."
"At ease Zack." The director was sitting in one of the large computer chairs, his gloved hands folded together and his chin resting slightly on them. I nod and relax.
"So what's going on?" Naturally I was anxious to find out about what was happening and get going as soon as possible. I was never a very patient person and curiosity usually got the best of me even now. I was just like a puppy everyone said, earning me the nickname of "Zack the Puppy." Lazzard begins to type something into the computer as he starts to explain.
"Rumour has it that the Wutai remnant forces are back and are causing a lot of trouble." I frown at the statement. Wutai's become a threat again? I can't believe it. Lazzard continues his speech, paying no attention to the frown on my face.
"It's been almost 4 days since we heard form the squad that was sent to eliminate the remnant forces. Yesterday we sent a troop of infantrymen that was being led by a few 2nd class SOLDERS into Wutai, but we have lost all connection with them also. We are afraid that they have been taken as prisoners." A picture appears on the large hanging screen on the wall. "This is the leader of the remnant force, also known as the Wutai Crescent Squad." The picture was of a man who wore a silver helmet and an all white uniform similar to the original Wutai uniform. "Zack we need you to go to Wutai, stop the Crescent Squad, and rescue our men." A soft beeping sound can be heard coming from a watch that was strapped securely to the Directors wrist. He looks down and then stands up. " I'm sorry Zack but I must get going." he reaches over and grabs a Manila folder that he then hands to me. "Here are the names of the SOLDERS and other men that have gone missing. You have permission to take backup into Wutai if you desire. You leave in 3 hours." And with that note, Director Lazzard was heading out of the briefing room, leaving me to stand alone. I sit down and open the folder, curious to find out who is on the squad that is supposedly being held captive in Wutai, and that's when I remember something. I quickly pull out my cellphone, flip it open, and begin to rapidly search through my messages until I find what I'm looking for.

Subject: Mission Time!
Hey Zack sorry for the late notice but I'm gonna be gone for a couple days. I was going to tell you in person but I had to leave right away so I'm sorry I didn't get the chance to say goodbye. I'm not sure where we are going and neither does the rest of my squad, all I know is that this mission is going to take a couple of day. I really wish I got a chance to say bye, but I guess beggars can't be choosers. Well... whenever we get to where we are going I'll let you know right away.
Talk to you later,
Cloud
Looking at the date of the message I see that it was sent 3 days ago... and that was the last time anyone from the squad had been heard from. Franticly I search through the list of names hoping... Praying that Cloud's name isn't on the list.
Bennett...
Carr...
Irwin...
Jameson...
Starrling....
Strife
This is not happening. I sit back in the chair and look over the list again thinking that this was a mistake, that I misread the list and I am freaking out about nothing. But there is no denying the truth , he his name is on the list; he is trapped in Wutai and who knows what is happening to him. I look back down at my phone 2 more hours I get up from my seat and head out to find some backup for the mission ahead of me, all the while counting down the time I have left before my mission begins.
