CHAPTER 4 – The end of an adventure
Morning the next day seemed to take forever to arrive. Cid was already at the rocket making some final adjustments with Shera. The gang were at the Inn talking about the situation.
"I still don't understand why he's not coming back" said Yuffie.
"We all have our place. Cid has decided that his place is in space".
As they walked outside, Rocket town was bustling with people everywhere. The gang got ushered to the front by hired security that Cid had also organised, Clearly he wanted nothing to go wrong. Cid appeared from behind a mass of cables and wires and confronted his friends one more time.
"Well this is it". He said, as they all silently nodded. Cloud stepped forward.
"This is the last time we'll all be together" he said, "well…almost everyone".
"I feel that you are referring to me" came a voice from behind them. Red XIII had appeared. The gang smiled and greeted Red as he approached Cid and said: "Now…we are all together one last time". Cid smiled and patted Red on the head before individually bidding farewell to the group.
FIVE, FOUR, THREE, TWO…ONE…The ground shook and Shera No.1 has left the ground and swiftly lifted up into the blue sky, leaving behind the world as they knew it. In the captains seat, Cid sat as he steered the rocket out of the atmosphere, and next to him, sat his wife…Shera. They both took one look back at the planet and with that Cid looked at Shera.
"Lets explore". He said. Shera smiled and nodded.
As the smoke lifted on the ground, the group looked ahead where the rocket and the one before it, once stood. Now empty space…other than a small rock on a cliff behind it that non of them had noticed…except Red.
