"Sephiroth, I have a favour to ask you.." Aerith said approaching Sephiroth.
"Aerith, if this is about your flowers again, can it wait? My back is still aching from last time.."
"Don't worry, I'm sure you'll enjoy this one, it's involves you temporally returning to life and messing with cloud" Aerith replied with an evil look in her face.
"When you say messing with Cloud, you mean fight him, I thought you didn't want me doing anything to hurt him?"
"You will NOT be allowed to do anything to cause him physical harm.. Remember that day he spent stalking you..? Well you get to stalk him back now, but you cannot let him know who you really are, if you tell him you will be teleported back to the lifestream."
"That sounds like something I would greatly enjoy, would I be able to talk to people and interact with my surroundings"
"Yes, but remember I will be watching, if you do anything to harm cloud I will bring you back here, and as punishment will spend however long I feel is appropriate in the flower fields again. So are you up for it?"
"Yes I am"
"Ok great I just need you to sign this."
"Wait, what's this?"
"Just a contract saying what you are not allowed to do, and if you do anything you are not allowed to, that you agree to work the flower fields again."
"Ok, let me read that first then"
'I Sephiroth (hereafter known as "S") agree to stalk Cloud (hereafter known as "C") for a day, I understand that if I do anything that directly or indirectly results in physical harm to befall C, I agree to punishment to be set by Aerith (hereafter known as "A"). I agree that in case of disagreement that A's decision is final.
I understand that anything I manifest must not be used to cause damage to anyone or anything in the living world. Anything manifested must not draw too much attention to myself.
Sephiroth read the short contract and looked back at Aerith, "You call this a contract? It's a bit vague isn't it?, and whats this part about being able to manifest anything I want?"
"I know" Aerith giggled "but it had all I wanted it to say. You may summon anything you require, but remember I will be watching. So do you agree"
"Yeah gives me a chance to freak cloud out." Sephiroth said signing the contract.
"Ok, get ready" Aerith held her hands together to pray, suddenly Sephiroth's clothing disappeared all but his underwear,
"Err, Aerith is this part of the spell?" sephiroth spoke turning red..
Opening her eyes she noticed Sephiroth in a leather thong, and giggled "No I just wanted to see your reaction, remember I'll be watching." Sephiroth faded away.
He found himself on a stage in the corner of a bar still with only his underwear on, looking round he saw a large group of girls cheering, and he heard a man's voice from behind him, "Hey man why'd you stop gyrating? This is our big finale" Sephiroth groaned thinking 'Oh Boy'. "Dude what're you waiting for, time for your finishing move"
"finishing move?"
"You know, turn away and pull the thong down, then run off stage"
Sephiroth paled in terror, but did it anyway. Then ran off stage, where Yuffie was waiting with a towel for him to cover himself up with. He took the towel, and heard the man speaking, "...Thank you we are the Firsts, Stephen come back out here and take a bow".
Sephiroth finished positioning the towel round his waste "Are you going out to take a bow or not Sephen" Yuffie asked him, realising she meant him, he walked out, to a cheering croud and started to bow.
As the curtains closed the man from before put his arm around his shoulder he noticed this guy had his hair spiked and had a scar on his left cheek to make him look like Zack, "so Stephen great show, are you sure you want to quit the group?"
"Yeah, I'm sure this isn't for me I'm sorry"
"It's ok, I'll go get our pay, I'll meet you in the dressing room shortly"
Sephiroth walked off stage, and headed to the dressing room, and quickly found some clothing that fit him assuming them to be his he quickly dressed. The Zack look-a-like came in, "Here's your pay, you even got a huge bonus too 2,000 Gil, that's more than I usually get in a month doing this 5 days a week" he said handing Sephiroth a wad of bills, So, I guess you'll be leaving soon? Sephiroth just nodded and heading out of the room.
Noticing the bar was now empty he went to the bar, Tifa walked over, "Stephen isn't it? I must admit, you are a spitting image of Sephiroth. You here for a drink?" Sephiroth nodded, "Ok, well you have a few that some of the girls tonight brought for you." Tifa handed him a beer and went back to cleaning the bar.
After a couple of beers, the bar door opened and Cloud walked in. Noticing him cloud shouted over "Sephiroth! What are you doing here.."
"Wait Cloud that's not Sephiroth, it's the look-a-like from tonight 'Girls only' night" Tifa said running over to Cloud.
"Oh You look just like him" Cloud said taking a seat next to him. "So what's your name?"
"Sephir... sorry Stephen sorry, I introduce myself as Sephiroth on stage, I was still kind of in character" he replied. Handing cloud his hand.
"Nice to meet you I'm Cloud" Cloud took his hand.
"Well, I must be off" he got up and headed to the Exit.
He noticed an Inn across the street and booked a room, laying in the bed he spoke to himself "Aerith why didn't you tell me I was going to be a look-a-like named Stephen" as he finished speaking, his surroundings changed and he found himself back in the lifestream,
"Yeah, I thought you'd never to do this, so I kept it as a surprise for you"
"So what happened to the real Stephen?"
"Don't worry about him, I teleported him to the lifestream, and explained the situation, he's cool with it".
