Tifa looked up at him appauled.

"What-what did you just say?" she stuttered. Cloud shut his eyes as if the images of who she was were going to fly through him.

"I asked who you were…..if I am supposed to remember who you are I am very sorry." Tifa looked at him, tears welling up in her eyes. She couldn't believe what she was hearing, was he joking, or did he really forget, it all hit her as if she was standing in the middle of a chocobo race track.

"Please tell me your joking, please just give me that." Tifa cried in his chest. Cloud kept his eyes shut and put his arms around her hugging her. "I'm sorry, I don't reme…." He never finished his sentence for Tifa had just slapped him across the face with a wet fire in her eyes.

"I can't believe you Cloud Strife!" she yelled "I can't believe you don't remember!" and with that she stalked off.

Cloud just sat there with the red palm print on his face, his cheek tingling with the after slap pain. Cloud looked down at the ground aware of everyone's eyes on him. He just stood up and went over to the door and sat on the outside steps trying to get all his thoughts together. Just then a monster came tearing down the street with a SOLDIER member in its fangs. Cloud stood up and ran inside yelling that there was a monster coming. Tifa came running out with gloves in one hand and a gigantic sword in the other and she hurled it at him. Cloud caught it without thinking and threw it on its hole pronged sheath. "Your gonna remember who you are, like it or not." Tifa exclaimed. Her and cloud went out and Cloud drew his sword, feeling so familiar.

There was a flash then the next thing her knew was Tifa hanging onto his arm pleading him to stop. He looked around to see the monster, mangled and dismembered in a very disturbing way, head only half cut off, limbs stabbed into itself, and its teeth lined into its back spine, one for each bone, then he looked around it, there were people around it, dismembered and cut up from his sword. Cloud saw a little girl clutching her teddy bear even though she had already passed on.
"Cloud please stop!" Tifa begged. Cloud looked down at a man who's arm had been cut off. He dropped his sword to the ground and fell to his knees.

"What happened, what did I do?"
