__________FINAL FANTASY VII :
The Soldier Returns___________________________
CHAPTER ONE
It was a time of happiness, joy, and unity. Avalanche, the anti-Shinra Terrorist group, had finally finished their mission: The destruction of Shinra. Cloud Strife, the new leader of the group, was sitting outside in the Sector Seven Slums, this is where it all began, but now things were different, there wasn't going to be anymore fighting. At least not untill they found Sephiroth.
" I just dont know what to do with myself..", he said to himself," Maybe I'll...", and then it struck him. One of the severe headaches that had been reacurring had just hit him. Cloud screamed and grabbed his head as he collapsed.....
............
" Come on we've got to get out of here!", a young boy with black spikey hair screamed.
The boy grabbed another young boys arm, he had blond spikey hair and was wearing a blue uniform. It was cloud. "What is this...?", Cloud thought to himself, " Is this the day that...that Zack died?!"
Zack ran forward, " Cloud I never knew you were this heavy."
Then there were gunshots.
" I'll take care of em'. ", Zack said to an unconcious Cloud and ran back.
Zack was a remarkable swordsman, of course it was what he lived by. He wasn't much of a person who dwelled on thier studies. He loved the feel of battle, he lived for it.
Zack ran back and grabbed Clouds arm.
" Doesn't take much to kill a couple of Shinra punks.", Zack said to himself.
They continued up to a small cliff. Zack put his sword up and looked at cloud, " There we're back at Midgar, now I've got to get you to a doctor."
" GET HIM!!!"
There was a scream from a Shinra general and then gunshots.
Cloud viewed the memory as it was a movie," I've never seen any of this.", Cloud said amazed, " How can I be seeing it now...?"
There was another scream, but this time it was from Zack. He flew backwards and landed on the ground. Cloud still unconcious continued to lay in the spot were Zack had dropped him when he was hit. The guards walked over to Zack, they pulled their guns up and fired.
" BANG!"
" BANG!"
" BANG!"
It was done, Zack lay still on the ground. A guard walked over to Clouds body, " What about him?", he asked.
" Leave him, he was a failure anyways...", the Shinra general yelled, " Now come on, our job here is done."
And with those words the guards and thieir general left.
" Im a failure?", Cloud thought in his head, " What does it mean...?"
He focused his attention back to the picture in his mind. The unconcious Cloud finally awoke. He looked at Zacks body and ran toward it.
" Zack...Zack...wake up...what...!",Cloud said looking down at Zacks body," Oh my god, what happened?"
Zack had a gunshot wound in his stomach, and was unconcious. Cloud thought him to be dead.
" Damn Shinra they did this to you!", Cloud yelled touching the bullet hole in Zacks stomach.
Cloud reached down and grabbed Zacks sword. He held it above his head," I hate them...I hate them all...Shinra...Soldier...everyone!", he yelled," I'll get them for doing this to you!"
............
Cloud awoke, he was sprawled out on the floor. He picked himself up, and looked at the sky," Zack...why did I have this memory?"
Cloud looked around and rethought the events in his head. He had never had a memory like this before, maybe it was a sign. " No..", Cloud thought to himself," He was shot four times...", and then he stood there, no emotion upon his face," In my memory...when I touched his wounds, there was only one that was bleeding, and it was in his stomach...", he said to himself," I have to know if he is still alive!"
Cloud regained his thoughts and ran toward the Avalanche hide out," Tifa's Seventh Heaven."
________________________________________________________________________
Zack looked across the field. He was traveling with a group of mercenaries who called themselves " The Black Hand." He looked to his right," There it is...", he thought," Midgar." The group was going to be stopping in Midgar for a few days, their objective was to assasinate the terrorist group AVALANCHE. Zack had thought about the day when Cloud vowed that he would destroy Shinra in Zack's memory, and he had a good idea that maybe he was in Avalanche.
" I hope nothings happened to him...", Zack said to himself," I've got a lot of things to tell him."
Zack looked forward and noticed his group had almost left his sight.
" Shit, I'd better catch up!", Zack said running after the group.
Yuu, the leader of the Black Hand had just began setting up his tent," All right, all of your start putting up camp were gonna stay here tonight, Midgar is still a couple of miles away!"
Zack grabbed his pack and took out his tent. He began setting it up, when he was finished he grabbed his sword, a perfect remake of the original Buster Sword he used to own back when he was in SOLDIER. He set it beside his sleeping bag.
" Just for safety precautions.", he said with a smile.
Zack Stood up and removed his clothes and got into bed and repeated," I hope Cloud is still alive. I havent seen him for years...I have some things to talk to him about...", he said just befor dozing off into a deep slumber.
