Yuffie headed over to Elena's place, where Elena was waiting for her.

"Tseng will be here soon. I hope this works." Elena told Yuffie as she opened the door and ushered her inside.

"Of course it works on us Wutaians, or we never would have started doing it in the first place." Yuffie replied.

Elena was on edge waiting for Tseng to show up, when he finally did, she had to force herself to act calm. She opened the door and welcomed him into her apartment.

"Why am I here, Elena?" Tseng asked, surprised to see Yuffie as well.

"Yuffie wanted to show me a unique Wutaian practice, and to prove to me that it works on fellow Wutaians."

"What is it?" Tseng asked.

"Watch this pinwheel..." Yuffie said, pulling a battery powered one out of purse and showing it to Tseng.

Yuffie hypnotized Tseng into believing he and Elena have been having a hot affair for five months, and when Elena left the room briefly to use the bathroom, Yuffie added a couple surprises for Elena to discover before leaving. Elena heard the door close when Yuffie left, and changed her outfit. She had decided that if Yuffie's hypnosis worked, she wasn't going to give it up so easily for Tseng. The bastard had strung her along for four years, maybe it would be a good idea to string him along for a little bit as well, maybe even make him beg a little. She left the bathroom and Tseng hurried over to her.

"I've missed you." Tseng started nuzzling her neck and undressing her.

"Not yet, Tseng." Elena pulled the spaghetti strap back onto her shoulder, and twirled around. "How do you like this dress?"

"You're always beautiful." Tseng replied.

"Well, tell me which of these you like best." Elena went through her whole collection of sexy dresses and lingerie, modeling them for him while he sat on her couch, and she took special note of which ones Tseng responded to the most. When she was done, she put on the lingerie he seemed to like the most. "What do you want for dinner?"

"You." Tseng said, pulling her onto his lap.

"Not yet." Elena told him again, though she did enjoy his hands on her.

"Please…" Tseng begged.

"Tell…me…what…your…favorite…dinner…is." Elena emphasized each word with a kiss or caress.

"Injera with doro tibs!" Tseng blurted out.

Elena smiled and got up off his lap. "There's a restaurant down the street that makes it, I'll put in a delivery order."

After getting off the phone, she returned to Tseng's lap. "They'll really busy, so it'll be a couple hours before it arrives, I told them that was just fine. In the meantime…" Elena kissed him again and then suddenly stood up. "I need a loooooong bath...alone." she said as she got undressed and threw the lingerie on his head before heading to her bathroom.

Elena was setting the table when the food arrived. "Please answer the door and pay for it, would you, Tseng?"

"Of course." Tseng got the food and put it on her table, where Elena organized everything.

Elena was glad that their meal was one where hand feeding to others was considered very proper. Elena decided to sit in his lap again so they could feed each other. She was getting worked up herself after waiting four years for this, so she was glad when they were done with dinner. She got off his lap and went to clear off the table, and suddenly Tseng was on top of her on the table. The sex was just as wild as she had hoped for. Before they fell asleep, Elena had Tseng let her know all of his preferences so once Yuffie reverted him, she could snag him for real.


Tifa looked out the window of her office, trying not to feel like her heart was breaking.

"Hey Tifa, how come you're not out there tending to customers?" Yuffie walked into the room, then stopped dead in her tracks when she saw the pregnancy test on the desk. "What the…Tifa, are you pregnant?!"

Tifa nodded sadly and turned to look at her friend. "It was when you hypnotized Reno to be my husband for a night two months ago. I haven't been with anyone else. What am I going to do? How can I tell everyone, especially Cloud?" Tifa let Yuffie hug her as Tifa thought about how loving Reno had been that night, and after Yuffie had reverted him, he had no memory of their night together and had pretty much ignored her the next few times he came into the bar. When their child wanted to know about how they were conceived, how could she tell them it was a lie? Some tears slid down her cheeks as she thought about the mess she was in.

"Don't worry Tifa, I'll fix this. I'm sorry I got you into this." Yuffie said, hugging her a little more before leaving.

Yuffie picked up her phone as soon as she got back to her apartment. "Elena? It's Yuffie. We've got a problem, and I need your help."


"Why are we here?" Reno asked as all the Turks entered Tifa's bar. He didn't like going there anymore, for some reason when he tried to pick up women at her place, he ended up insulting them and it was too painful to try anymore. He gave up when he told one woman her left breast sagged more than her right.

"You'll find out." Elena said as Tseng opened the door for her. Yuffie had reverted Tseng the next morning, but Elena had learned enough about him that they were soon a real couple.

When all the Turks and former AVALANCHE members were in the bar, Yuffie pulled a string and a banner saying THEY'RE HAVING A BABY! came down from the ceiling as Tifa came out of the office.

"You're pregnant, Tifa? Guess you and Cloud are finally starting that family, Congratulations I guess, don't get too fat." Reno said.

"Oh, you don't have to pretend anymore, Reno." Yuffie said in a sweet voice and snapped her fingers.

As soon as they heard that, Tseng started to take Elena to a dark corner of the bar, and Reno hurried to Tifa's side.

"Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant sooner?" Reno said, putting his arms around Tifa. "We have to be careful with you now. Do you know if it's a boy or girl yet?"

"No, I want to be surprised." Tifa managed a smile, being glad Cloud wasn't there to see her in Reno's arms.

"Tseng, wait a little." Elena said, heading back to the others. "For our baby shower present, Reno gets paid leave during the rest of the pregnancy, right Tseng?"

"Whatever you say, Elena." Tseng replied.

"All you need to do is sign these forms authorizing it." Elena pulled some papers out of her jacket. When Tseng signed them, Elena took them back and gestured to Yuffie, who took Tseng outside to revert him without affecting Reno, then sent him back inside when Cloud showed up.

"Yuffie, what's going on?" Cloud asked her. "Tifa said it was important."

"It is, I need to talk to you. Come on, let's go over here." Yuffie led Cloud to the alleyway and grabbed something out of this purse. "Look at this pinwheel…"
