A New Ally (Remake)

"How do you know him Hiro?" Cloud asked the blonde, who looked away.

"I...stole something from him. It was a materia, called Obilivon. It was my choice." Hiro tried to get out of it.

"But how do you know him? Just because you stole materia from him doesn't mean anything." The questions continued to bother Hiro. It hurt him to tell them this. He didn't want to at all.

"And what did he mean by her?" A throbbing pain was hurting Hiro's heart, memories of that day tormented him.

"Sealing your fate? Were you two enemies when you were younger?" Hiro looked down, his anger rising.

Everything..everything is my fault. Depression, death, everything! Please forgive me!

"What happened Hiro? Come on you can tell us!"

No! Please don't! Don't do it! The pain was getting worse.

"Hiro tell us-"

"SHUT UP!!!"

Hiro's eyes were glaring at them. "Look dammit, it really isn't any of your business how I am with Sephiroth." Hiro said, his arms crossed.

Cloud sighed deeply. "If you didn't want to say something you could of said before you got angry."

"To late for that, now isn't it?" Hiro said, looking away. The group fell into silence for a moment. Then the warrior spoke.

"I'm sorry. Just some memories I do not wish to speak or remember." Hiro explained, looking back up. Aeris was the first to speak.

"You don't have to remember Hiro, it's your choice." Aeris tried to make him feel better.

"Sorry, just, some of it's like a nightmare. Worst than a nightmare.."

"Hiro..I'm sure some of us has gone through the same-" Cloud began, but Hiro stopped him.

"I'm going to go to sleep. Wake me up when we reach somewhere..I need to calm down." Hiro said, leaving. Cloud looked at Aeris, who looked at him.

Hiro walked off of the ship, and took a deep breath. He heard children laughing, the waves hitting the shore, and people laughing. They were at Costa De Sol, and Hiro couldn't help but laugh. "Hiro calm down." Cloud said, and Hiro turned to him.

"Sorry Cloud. It is just so great to be off of that hunk of metal." Hiro said, smiling. Yuffie was behind of them.

What the hell is that guy's problem? Yesterday he was angryabout something, and now he is happy? She thought, but was cut off by Cloud.

"Anyway, we will be spilting up into groups. Aeris, you go with Red XIII. Tifa and Yuffie will go together, and finally I will go with Barret and Hiro. Understand?" All of them besides Yuffie nodded.

"Why can't we have a break.." Yuffie whined, and Cloud sighed.

"Not now, we have alot to do."

Hiro was to busy staring at Yuffie to care. She is really cute. I wonder if I will ever have a relationship with her? Hiro wondered, and once again, Yuffie caught him staring at her.

Hiro quickly turned away, and Yuffie sighed. That guy gets on my nerves..but..why do I feel kinda good when he stares at me? She sort of blushed as well, but a little one. Hiro was to busy day dreaming.

Dream:

Hiro and Yuffie walked down the beach, smiling. Hiro wore some blue swiming trunks, while Yuffie wore a yellow bikini. Hiro was splashing water at her, and Yuffie was giggling. After a bunch of watering flying up in the air, they both sat on the sand, while the water would come up and hit their feet.

"Yuffie..I want to tell you something.." Hiro said, and Yuffie looked at him.

"What is it Hiro? Is it a secret?" Yuffie said, and Hiro shook his head, blushing.

"S-Sort of.." Hiro said, and Yuffie smiled.

"So, what is it? You can tell me anything Hiro!" She said, giggiling.

"Well..I-I always have liked you, since the first day I joined the gang on that ship.."

There was total silence, until Yuffie giggled. "I..always liked you to Hiro. You are really smart, handsome, strong, funny, and a very nice person!" Yuffie said, and Hiro blushed.

"R-Really?" Hiro was surprised.

"Yes..I have always.." Their faces were very close to each other. "liked you.." She was about to kiss him...

"WAKE UP!!!" Hiro quickly snapped out of his day dream and looked around.

"Huh? What?" Hiro looked at Barret and Cloud, who had their arms crossed.

"Hey, where is everyone else?" Hiro asked.

"They left without us, while you were at your happy place. You were smiling and blushing the whole entire time." Barret said, and Hiro gasped.

"I'm sorry!" Hiro said, bowing, but Cloud sighed.

"Come on. We have to catch up to them. Don't daydream this time." Cloud said, walking ahead of them, while Hiro and Barret followed behind them. They walked out of Costa de Sol and walked into the vast land. While they walked, Hiro couldn't help but think of the ninja, while Barret was watching him.

It was all silent. They fought every once in awhile, but Cloud took care of it all. (I gotta train so I can fight Sephiroth, so don't get in my way!) They walked farther, about to get to Corel. As they walked, Hiro was smiling and blushing again. Barret sighed.

"What the heck is the matter with this kid? He is totally crazy." Barret said, and Cloud looked at him.

"Oh..well, now I know what is wrong with him." Cloud said, knowing exactly what was wrong.

"What is it?" Barret asked, and Cloud smirked.

"You'll find out in a couple of minutes." Cloud said, and Barret just shrugged, walking along with the spikey blond.

Once again, the silence came back. The silence stayed there until Hiro blurted out. "What do you guys think of Yuffie?" Hiro asked them, and Barret looked at Cloud. He smirked. Teenage crushes.

"Well, Yuffie is a kind gal. Kinda crazy, I think she has kleptomania..." Barret began, and Hiro smiled.

"Yea..she is really cute right? I mean her eyes-" Hiro quickly covered his mouth. What the hell!?!? Hiro thought, surprised that he was saying those things about Yuffie. I know I like her, but to say them outloud infront of these two!? Barret laughed, while Cloud smirked.

"Spikey was right! You have a crush on Yuffie!" Barret said, and Hiro blushed wildly.

"I do not!" Hiro said, crossing his arms.

"Come on! Don't deny it!" Barret said, and Hiro sighed.

"Alright..fine..I like her! Leave me alone already!" Hiro said. They laughed.

North Corel

"Thanks for destroying that enemy for us Hiro!" Aeris said, smiling as the giant bird fell to the ground. Cloud's, Red's, and Barret's mouths fell down to the ground, shocked by the boy's power

. When Hiro and the others made it to Corel, Aeris and Red were fighting a giant bird. Hiro quickly destroyed it, making them surprised. "

It's nothing. I use to fight these things all the time when I was a kid!" Hiro said, making them gasp.

"What!?" Barret said, shocked.

"Oh. I was with some other people of course.." Hiro began, but someone's voice cut him off.

"There he is!"

Hiro turned to see some men walking up to them. "What are you doing here Barret?" One of them asked, and Barret remained quiet. Barret walked past Hiro, and Hiro stood there.

"Why did you return?!" All of a sudden, the man punched Barret in the stomach, making Barret gasp in pain.

"We told you never to come back!!" They started to beat up Barret, while Cloud and the others just stood there. Barret didn't fight back either, he just sat there and allowed them to beat him. Hiro, on the other hand, could not watch one of his friends be beaten up by a bunch of random guys.

"Hey! Leave him alone!" One of them turned to Hiro.

"You stay out of this brat! You have nothing to do with this!" They said, and Hiro growled.

"When one of my friends is getting beat up it does!" Hiro charged at them, but to his surprise, was pushed to the ground by none other then Barret himself.

After ten minutes of abuse by the men, they left the others. Barret stood up, and Hiro glared at him. "You..are..a..idoit! I could of helped!" Hiro yelled at Barret, who shook his head.

"It is none of your concern." Barret said, and Hiro glared at him.

"Yes it is! I could of helped you!" Hiro said, and Barret shook his head.

"No you couldn't. Just stay out of it boy." Barret said, walking ahead of them. Hiro sighed as he watched Barret walk off. Hiro stood there completely shocked.

"Why the hell would he just let them beat on him like that?" Hiro asked himself. He shook his head. "I shouldn't get involved.." Hiro said, and he started to follow Barret.

They decided to go to the Golden Saucer, since Tifa said that she and Yuffie would meet them there. Hiro sat on the side, looking out the window while going on. He was bored. Really bored. He didn't know why. Why the hell did I join them again? Why couldn't I just go find her? Well..she would kill me when I did find her. Might as well just stay with them. He thought.

He looked over at the rest of them. They are nice people. Especially Aeris. Barret needs to get some help with that issue of his, and Red..can't say anything about Red. Cloud..he seems really familar. I think I heard his voice before. Ah well. Tifa is pretty nice to, and from what I saw on the ship, I think Tifa has feelings for Cloud. Hiro thought, smirking at the thought.

Then there is Yuffie. She is a really cute girl. But why does she hate me though? Did I do something wrong when I met her? Maybe.

"Whatca thinking about Hiro?" Aeris asked, and Hiro shrugged.

"Nothing really." He said, and Aeris smirked. It was totally out of her nature, but she just had to say it.

"You are thinking about Yuffie again aren't you?" She said slyly, making Hiro blush and he turned around to her, surprised. "H-How did you know I liked Yuffie!?" He said, and Aeris laughed. "

Well, you look at her alot, and you blush when you do. Kinda simple." Aeris said, and Hiro sighed.

"Yea..I guess so." Hiro said. Cloud, who over heard the conversation, sat down across from Hiro.

"Why don't you admit your feelings for her Hiro?" Cloud asked him, and Hiro sighed.

"I'm to scared to.." Hiro said, and Cloud sighed.

"Why don't I do it for you?"

"Seriously?" Hiro asked, looking up at the spikey blond, who nodded.

"Why not?" Cloud said, leaning back onto the seat. Hiro smiled.

"Thanks Cloud, you're not as bad as you look. Besides you being horrible at sword fighting.." Hiro thanked and mocked Cloud, who glared at the blonde warrior.

"What?" Hiro smirked.

"You know. I'm better at you at sword fighting." Hiro said, and Cloud continued to glare at him.

"I'm a ex-SOILDER." He said, and Hiro laughed.

"And so was the guy Aeris and I met on the ship. I beat him down easily." Hiro said, and Aeris nodded.

"It's true Cloud." Aeris said, and Cloud's eyes widened.

When they made it to the Golden Saucer, Tifa nad Yuffie were waiting for them. "It took you long enough." Tifa said, and Cloud shrugged. "Alot of delays. Like Hiro being a brat." He said, and something made Hiro turn serious.

"Cloud." Cloud looked at him.

"Yea?" He asked, and Hiro sighed. "

Don't call me a brat please. Only one person can do that." Hiro said, and Cloud blinked in confusion.

"Umm..Sure. Sorry." He said, confused what Hiro meant.

"Hey Cloud.." Cloud looked at Tifa. "Umm..well, there is a date night here tonight, and only couples are allowed in, see?" She pointed up at the board, that did say:

"Date Night! Only Couples!" Cloud smirked at the chance.

"I'll go with Yuffie." He said, making everyone besides Hiro gasp. Tifa glared at Cloud, but Cloud mouthed: 'It's for Hiro.' She then looked at the blonde, who was staring at Yuffie, blushing.

"Alright then..why don't I go with Barret? Red can go with Aeris." Tifa said, and then Aeris looked over at Hiro.

"But that will just leave Hiro here alone." She said, while silently Yuffie was screaming yes.

"I'll be fine. I have been through worst." Hiro said, and Cloud nodded.

Later: Date between Cloud and Yuffie

"So I tried to steal the mat- Hey are you even listening?" Yuffie asked Cloud, who was looking out the window.

"Hmm? Oh yea. Go on." He said, lying. Boy can she talk. I don't know why Hiro likes her at all. Which reminds me.

"Yuffie." Yuffie looked at Cloud. "Yea?" She was curious why the spikey haired blond would just say something all of a sudden.

He didn't talk for the whole time, just stared out the window or listen to her talk.

"I need to tell you something very important. You know Hiro right?" He said, and she nodded.

"Well, he sorta..likes you. Well, maybe after this, you two could hang out, talk, you know, get to know each other.."

Complete silence.
