Tifa rolled her eyes when she saw Genesis walk in the door, "Go away."
He shrugged at her and walked over to the window, then pulled out a book, titled, Loveless , "When the war of the beasts brings about the world's end,The goddess descends from the sky,Wings of light and dark spread afar,She guides us to bliss, her gift everlasting."
The raven haired woman raised an eye brow, "Whats that?"
"Loveless-prologue." he answered,then closed the book, "Whats your opinion on Sephiroth?" when he spoke of the generals name, he said it as if he was disgusted.
"I think he was cruel, ruthless, selfish, and disgusting. He was our hero once, and then betrayed us." Tifa's fists tightened up. Her eyes narrowed, "I'm glad I was able to help kill him."
Genesis nodded, "I see."
--
"Damn it!" Barett slammed his fists on the table, "You have to be fucking kidding me!"
Cloud looked down in shame, "I'm sorry..."
Yuffie walked over to the two, "Its not your fault, he was a first class SOLDIER. And besides, you did what was best, if you would of attacked, Tifa would of gotton hurt."
Cloud yelled in frustration, "Thats not the damn point! The point is that if i wouldnt of let my guard down, she would be right here next to me!"
Vincent glared at Cloud, "Calm down, she was only tyring to help. Yelling at people wont bring her back." he walked over next to Cloud, "We need a plan."
Cid lite a cigarette, "I've gotta plan, KICK SOME ASS!"
Cait hopped on top of the bar counter, "I doubt that will work."
Nanaki walked into the room, "We need to see the current condition of Wutai."
The robotic cat spoke, "I've already done that! The pictures are at the WRO."
Yuffie nodded, "Then what are we here for?"
Barett spoke in his gruff voice, "Lets go, Shera? Will you watch the kids, I think Shelke would be usefull if we have to go into battle."
Sherea nodded, "Of course!"
Shelke walked into the room, she had on her Deepground outfit, "Lets leave."
--
"Aerith?" Zack looked over at the brunette girl, "Do you think that the planet is making a good choice?"
She sighed, "I really cant say, I mean, who's to say that he's changed?"
"Good question..." he looked around, "Hmmmmmm where's Angeal?"
"With Kadaj."
"Oh...do they know?"
she shrugged, "If they don't, they will soon,"
--
Tifa sighed and looked out of the barred windows, Cloud, please, don't do anything stupid. she thought. Truthfully, she didn't care about her safety, as long as Cloud and everyone else was alright. She would give her life for Aerith to come back any day.
The door opened and Genesis walked in, "I'm surprised Cloud isn't here yet." he walked over and looked out the window, "Maybe he doesn't care?"
"Shut up, your little mind games aren't gonna work on me." she hissed, "What do you want with me anyway?!"
"To make him weak, that way he'll be easier to take down." he grinned, "Once he's gone, then I can take over the planet. no problem."
Tifa tried to punch him, but he easily grabbed her wrist in time and then grabbed the other one, "Now now princess, I don't think you want Cloud to come and then see you all bruised up!" his eyes narrowed, "Do you?"
She spat in his face, "I really dont like you."
He threw her on the ground and then glared, "I recommend you don't get on my bad side."
Tifa picked herself up off the ground, "I can say the same to you."
He grinned, "I doubt that will be a problem."
She glared and the ran toward him, throwing punch's and kicks at him, he blocked everyone with little effort, finally he grew bored and punched her in the stomach, the impact making her fly in to the wall.
She started to cough and then held her stomac, "Why?! Why are you doing this?!"
"None of your damn business." he glared at her and then walked out of the room, slamming it behind him.
Tifa slowly stood up and made her way over to the bed, she then curled up in a ball, holding her stomach, he hit her hard, but that wasn't even his full strength, he was right, she DIDN'T want to get on his bad side.
--
Cloud was in the WRO building, looking at the pictures that Cait had been able to require, and the blueprint he had made. There were Soldiers constantly patrolling around, and the castle was heavily guarded.
Barett yelled, "This is all bullshit!"
Yuffie stared at the pictured, "We're going to have to force our way in."
Vincent spoke up, "That would be stupid."
Cid out out his cigarette, "Well, i don't see another way! Do you Vince?!"
"No." He began, "But running in there like idiots is going to just get us killed."
Shelke nodded, "I agree, We need to plan this carefully."
Cloud walked out of the room, I'll just go by myself, Its my fault she's in this mess, I'll get her out.
Cloud, don't be an idiot. said a voice, a very, very, very, familiar voice, you'll get yourself killed if you do that. I doubt Tifa wants that.
He froze, Sephiroth, was...was he talking to him?! Who are you?! he thought.
you know who I am, so stop asking stupid questions
But, your dead! how can you... Cloud continued to walk
The planet is in trouble, and they are summoning something to help protect it. Like WEAPON but...differant.
You- you dont mean...the last thing Cloud wanted was the silver headed maniac running around and making this worse.
Aw, You hurt my feeling. Seohiroth said in his sinister tone, The planet if giving me another chance, I don't plan on screwing it up, but that's besides the point,
No one is going to except your help.
I'm sure after awhile they will, I know things they don't, and I have skills Genesis doesnt.
--
Sephirith was growing annoyed, Cloud was stupid and hard headed, all he did was think of the negative. So he stopped paying attention to him and walked over toward the lifestream, it was swirling around in the air. It then wrapped itself around him, and a light swallowed him.
When Sepiroth opened his eyes he was in the Northern Crater, looking around, he noticed it was daylight, he spread his wing and flew in the air, he didn't know where he was going, all he knew was that the time would come for him to make his appearance, for now he would fly around, and gather more information on what was going on.
--
The next day was when Yuffie ran in the lobby, "I HAVE AN IDEA!!"
Reeve looked at her like she was stupid and sipped his coffee.
Barett looked at her, "What is it?"
"Okay well, I was thinking, that Cid could drop us off, like we fly over Wutai and then split into groups of two, we will fly over one destination and then you hop off! Like, Cait is with Nanaki, Cid is with Barett, I'm with Vincent, And then Cloud is with Shelke! We'll drop Cloud off on top of the castle! And then he'll look for Tifa, while Shelke goes and kicks ass!!"
Cid lite another cigarette, "That sounds pretty good, Im suprised you came up with it, brat."
Vincent walked in glaring at Yuffie, "She didn't, I did."
Cait nodded, "Figures, Yuffie's head would of exploded if she would of thought that hard."
"Shut the fuck up!"
Cloud looked at Cid, "When do we leave?"
"ASAP."
--
The raven haired woman was asleep, reliving a memory she wished never happened.
"Hey Tifa!!" the little boy with spiky blonde hair ran up to her, smiling..
It was winter, and snow was on the ground, Johnny and his gang were in the park, so Tifa didn't go there.
"Hi! So, do you wanna go sleding??" she asked, a curious look in her eyes, arms behind her back, "I've got a sled!"
"Ummmmm, okay." He scratched the beck off his head, "I don't have a sled..."
She giggled, "That's okay, I've got one, we can share!" she grabbed his hand and started to walk toward her house, Cloud was following, "Soooo, is your dad coming home?"
He shrugged, "I dont know...mom said he was...but today she was crieng, and wouldn't even come out of her room, so I just came outside,"he looked at Tifa and smiled, "I'm sure she just sad cuz dad cant come home right now or something!"
Tifa loved the look in his eyes whenever he talked about his dad, he was so proud, His dad was in SOLDIER, "Im sure he'll come home soon!"
Once they were at Tifa's house she let go of his hand and invited him in, "Hey mom! We're gonna go sleding!"
Tifa's mom was at the table, sipping a cup of coffee, she looked over and smiled at Cloud, "Hello Cloud, how are you?"
"I'm good, how are you?"
"Fine,"She looked over at Tifa, "So your going sledding? Okay, be back before lunch, Cloud, you can eat with us if you like."
"Thank you." he looked at Tifa, "We'd better go if we want to get some fun in before lunch."
She nodded, "Okay, See ya mom." she walked out of the house, and Cloud followed, she grabbed the sled and started to drag it toward the hill.
"Tifa, I'll carry it."He removed Tifa's hand and replaced it with his own. "I better go tell my mom."
"Oh! Okay."
Cloud left Tifa and the sled and walked over to his house. It was about fifteen minuted before he returned, his eyes were blood red and tears were running down his cheeks.
She ran up to him, "Cloud! Wha-what happened??"
"Tifa, I don't think I wanna go sledding today...maybe another day..."he didn't look at her, but he was still crieng.
She started to hug him, "Cloud? Whats wrong?"
He buried his face in her shoulder, "Dad...he...he isn't coming home...Tifa...he isn't coming home at all, he's gone forever, he's never going to come here and sled with us, he isn't coming home...he...he died!!" he started to sob harder, and his knees grew weak, so he fell to the ground, Tifa was ion her knees still hugging him, she started to cry to.
"Cloud...I'm sure...I mean...he is watching over you. He will forever. And he'll always live in your heart forever!" she was crieing to, and she didn't even care that the snow was getting her new pants wet.
"Tifa...I'm never going to see him again! I can never hear his voice again!" he was sobbing even louder, and was clutching the back of her coat, "What am I supposed to do?"
She hugged him tighter, "You'll see him again! You will, but, you have to live your life first...and all you can do is live for him!"
Cloud was crieng so hard that he could barley breath, he was shaking and sobbing really loud. Tifa managed to stand him up and walk him over to his house. When they were at the door she stopped.
"Tifa...will...you stay over for awhile?" Cloud was still crieng.
She nodded, then walked in, his mother was at the table crieng, "Actually Cloud, I think that you should be with your mom...I'll come by tomorrow, okay?"
He nodded, and the hugged her, "Thanks Tifa..."
Tears started to roll down her cheeks, that was one of the saddest times in Cloud's life, she started to sob in her sleep, she was then woken by a pillow that was thrown at her. She sat up and was still sniffling, "WHAT?!"
Genesis looked at her then turned around, "Infinite in mystery is the gift of the goddess,We seek it thus, and take it to the sky, Ripples form on the water's surface ,The wandering soul knows no rest."
She glared, "I don't care about your stupid book!"
BANG! BOOM! BAM!
Genesis ran out the door fast and locked it, he started to look around, outside of the castle was a ninja with a red cloaked man near her. He grinned, but then spun around, there was a girl, he recognized her from somewhere. She was in a Deep-ground outfit.
She glared, "Stupid copys." she then sharged at him trieng to hit him with her weapon, he easily dodged it and then pulled out his sword.
Her eyes grew a tad wider, "So, your the real one." she then grinned, "I remember when you. Weiss was interested in you, something about secret powers."
He charged at her, but she blocked, they continued this process until he finally managed to slam her against a wall and he held he blade up to her throat, "I remember you, you were that worthless Deep-ground kid. All you were good for was Net dives, if you didn't have mako you would die. Hah, you were supposed to be executed, but I see you managed to live...hmmmm...well I guess later is better then not at all."
Right when he was about to shove the blade threw her throat he was stopped, a katana was blocking his way, Genesis'd eyes grew wide, as he traced up the blade to see who it was.
The silver headed swordsman grinned, "Hello Genesis."
--
"Tifa!" Cloud called, he was looking around in every room, and all they contained were Genesis clones that would try to kill him. "TIFA!" He tried to open another door, but it was locked, he took a step back and then sliced the door down.
There she was sitting on the bed, staring at him.
"Tifa!" he ran over to her and made her stand up, then hugged her, "Are you alright?" he kissed the top of her head.
"You...you came..." she hugged him, "I was worried, that you might do something stupid..."she looked up at him. "Where is everyone else?"
"Fighting outside, Tifa, Im sorry, I shouldn't of let this happen, I should of protected you, I--"
she cut him off, she was kissing him, and when she pulled away he was speechless, "Cloud, you came, that's all that matters." she pulled away fro, him and put on her gloves, "Now, I think we have some ass to kick."
Cloud just nodded, he was still in shock about what Tifa just did, he followed her out of the room.
There were sounds of blades clinking together in the distance, Tifa was trieing to find the source. Right before she walked in another hallway she stopoped and started to listen to the conversation, Cloud came uo beside her and was about to speak put she looked at him and did the "shhhh" sign.
"What the hell are you doing here?!" Genesis said angry.
"The planets wish." said his opponent, when Tifa herd the voice she almost screamed, but she out a hand over her mouth and continued to listen.
"So, is it two against one?!" The red head asked angry, "Heh, it doesn't matter, I'm sure the rest of AVALANCHE will try to eliminate you."
Shelke was the next to speak, "Not if they know why he's here."
Genesis laughed, and the blades started to collide again. Tifa walked in the hallway, Sepirith and Genesis were giving each other death glares while they were putting more pressure on the blades, Shelke was now getting ready to hit Genesis but he quickly fell back and almost stabbed her, she dodged, then Sephiroth almost hit Genesis with Thundaga.
Cloud emerged and stared, Sephiroth glanced over at the two and then at Shelke, but then continued to battle. Genesis looked at Tifa and grinned, he was just about to go and stab Tifa when Sephiroth tackled him and continued their fight.
Shelke ran over to Tifa and Cloud.
"What the hell?!" Tifa screamed, she looked at Sephiroth.
Shelke sighed, "I'll explain later! But we need to evacuate now!"
"Why?!" Cloud asked, "Whats going on?"
"We just do! This place is gonna blow! I called Reeve, he is picking everyone up! Wutai is going to explode! And this is the base of the explosion!"
Sephiroth and Gensis were now sword-less, Sephiroth grabbed Genesis's shoulders and then flung him across the hallway, Genesis broke threw a window.
Sephiroth was catching his breath, and then spread his wing, he then busted a near by window, and was about to fly away.
"Wait!" Shelke yelled, "We are going to need your help!"
He nodded, "When you need me, I'll be there." he then flew away, leaving them behind.
--
When Tifa boarded the Shera she was yet again suffocated by hugs.
"Are you sure your alright?!" Barett interpreted.
"I'm fine!" she answered. she looked around, "Wheres Yuffie?"
Everyone looked around and then ran to the deck. There was Yuffie looking at Wutai, it was still in one piece.
Then suddenly it exploded, The explosion was huge, it pushed the ship a little making everyone loose their balance, the flames were enotmous, and smoke was everywhere. She busted out crieing. Vincent walked over and picked her up bridal style, she was curled up in a ball toward his chest balling her eyes out. He walked off the deck in to the ship. Everyone else follows, except Cloud and Tifa.
"Poor Yuffie..." Tifa whispered,
Cloud walked over and rapped his arms around her, he said nothing, he didn't know what to say, both him and Tifa had experienced the same thing.
She looked up at him, "We have to end this..."
He nodded, and then kissed her, "I know...we will."
"I don't wanna lose anyone else..." she began to cry, "Promise me you'll survive this..."
"I promise..."he rested his for head against hers, "You two."
"I promise."
He then kissed her, and when he pulled away she just pulled him back.
"Cloud...I love you." she giggled, and then kissed him again.
