Cid woke up from his small nap, but it was strange. He fell asleep in the medical wing of the G.U.M building, but when he awoke, he was in a small room. The medical equipment that he was hooked up to was even gone.

"W..what? Where am I? This isn't G.U.N HQ."

Cid slowly rose from the crimson bed that he was on, the covers flowed off the bed like a river of thick blood, and Cid could detect the small sent of blood in the air. The room was small, a 12 by 12 foot room, with a ceiling that seemed too high to tell when it ended. The sky in the room was black, and the walls were coated with a thick blood red color.

"Ah shit, they must have overdosed the painkillers in that IV I was hooked up to, I must be in hell."

"Once your done in here you will realize that you are hell!" a dark raspy voice called out to Cid. Cid froze where he stood.

"So it is you Calamity. Tell me how have you been?"

At that moment a figure walked threw the bloody wall. He wore the exact attire that Cid wore, except every thing that he wore was a blood red color. His face was the same as Cid's except his hair was purple in color, with his eyes white as snow. When he smiled you could see that his teeth were more or less fangs. His arms were dark red, with spikes shooting out of it, and the hands were claws that were the same shade as the arms but had a purple core in the palm. This was the demon that lurked inside Cid, the byproduct of all of the Organization's experiments on Cid when he was young.

"My life has been shrouded in darkness since you abandoned and locked me in your mind. I've been craving blood for a long time, and now that you finally remember me, I can start anew!"

Cid laughed and Calamity did the same. The two were really one and the same, straight down to the sick sadistic humor.

"You know that I can't let you out in the open." Cid told the monster.

"And why is that?"

"Because you might try to take over my body, just like that one time in Metropolis."

The two fell silent. It's true that Calamity took over Cid's body in that one incident. A small skirmish broke out in a isolated part of the city. The Organization brought out the heavy machinery and a lot of troops. Cid summoned Calamity in hopes of wiping out the forces quickly. So Calamity took control over Cid's body and took out the Organization forces, but then one thing happened that Cid never expected. Calamity refused to return control over Cid's body. After awhile Cid managed to regain control, but Calamity's rain of destruction and blood was significant enough to make Cid vow to never use him again. This is when he locked Calamity deep into his mind.

Calamity looked down at Cid and ginned.

"Your right, who knows. I might just take over permanently. In fact I plan on taking over right now!"

Calamity then walked back threw the wall he came from. The room that Cid was in started to shake violently. Once the shaking stopped, he heard a voice.

"Damn, I didn't expect your body to be asleep. So guess what, you have about an hour until the doctors are done with your surgery. I know lets make this a game!"

A black door then appeared in front of Cid. Cid walked up to it and looked at it.

"What the hell is this?"

"That is a door. I thought you knew what doors were."

"Smart ass! Where does it lead?"

A maniacal laughter echoed throughout the small room.

"This is the door to your mind. If you can get to your central core, and beat me within the hour then you'll have control over your pathetic shell."

Cid looked at the door handle.

"And if I lose?"

"Then I'll be in charge, and trust me the flames of corruption will run threw your mind. This will incinerate your ass. Then I'll probably wipe out G.U.N and that pathetic Organization."

Wasting no time Cid kicked the black door down. On the other side was a small cliff that looked out at Cid's inner mind. This was no different that the room he was in, but it was bigger. The sky had lightning shooting out of the clouds, and it was raining. However this wasn't water that fell from the sky, it was blood. The inner works that Cid had to travel through was a giant labyrinth.

"It looks like that you have already corrupted my mind you sick monster"

Cid jumped off of the small ledge that he was on and landed with in the small maze. Once he got up he ran forward threw the maze. As he was trying to figure out the maze, he was being harassed by Calamity.

"You've become weak Cid! You've made friends, you've made commitments, and the worst sin of all: you've fallen in love before. It's no wonder you couldn't save her life."

Cid skidded to a halt and looked up at the sky. He screamed in agony as the blood was hitting his face.

"You son of a BITCH!!"

"Oh," Calamity replied," did I hit a cord? Don't worry I'm sure your fox buddy, Sef, will share the same fate."

Cid continued on threw the maze, trying to block out the things that Calamity was saying. However something changed inside of the area, the rain picked up and became a hard storm. Cid looked up and saw the storm intense and wondered why it was happening.

"Could it be my emotions that are fueling this storm? Could it be my pain for losing Tifa to some strange creature?"

Shaking off any other thought about Tifa, Cid continued threw the twisted path that was his inner mind. After he turned the following corner, he saw something that he was glade to see. It was Sef Highwind standing in the long corridor. Cid ran up to him and had a smile on his face.

"Sef!! How did you get in here?"

However instead of running up to his friend, Cid, the fox pulled out his Tech Nine and pointed it at Cid.

"Must eliminate all Organization members!"

Cid took a step back until his back hit a wall.

"Sef, what are you doing?! You know that I'm not a member any more!"

Sef still took steps towards Cid with his gun in one hand. Then he reached for his back, and he pulled out his gunblade. He pulled the trigger six times, which caused the blade to glow red. The blade could now easily tear threw anything now.

"All Organization members must die in order for the world to be at peace."

Sef was still chanting these two sentences as he came with in striking distance. Wasting no time Cid pulled out his revolver and fired a shot. The 60 cal shell blew a gaping hole in Sef's torso. The blood splattered on the wall, and his blood also was splattered on Cid's jacket. Cid looked down at Sef's lifeless body and then looked at his gun. He threw the gun on the ground and bent down and screamed.

"There, now that wasn't hard was it? You see friends slow you down."

"No they don't! They help you get a mission done faster than you could alone!"

Cid looked at the blood pool that formed underneath Sef and sighed.

"Cid don't you see, the government will target you next. After you kill Chrono, there will be one organization member left, you. Now stop this foolishness and just let me take over."

Cid slowly stood up and looked at the stormy sky. The lightning was dancing in the air and all at once every thing seemed clear.

"No"

"What?!"

"NO!" Cid Shouted. "I'm not going to let you take over this body of mine!"

With that Cid pulled out his sword and swung at a wall. To his surprise the wall collapsed.

"Now I get it," he began," I've always been felt like people slowed me down, and I continued to dwell on the past. These walls are just the symbol for the sins that I have kept a hold of."

Cid than began taking down wall after wall, shattering a moment of regret or sorrow. Finally he got to a small door that was in the center of the maze. When he kicked the door down, Calamity was sitting in a throne type chair. Cid placed his sword back on his back and took out his revolver.

"Took your sweet time I see. Oh well, I guess I'll have to finish you off in thirty minuets. I'm going to enjoy this moment, the moment that I kill you!"

Calamity's body glowed red until fire shot out from every part of his body. The spikes on his arms shot into the body as if they were going to be used for something. Then the purple core on the claws opined up. He then shot out three blazing spikes from the core, to which Cid dodged two of them and reflected the third one back. This one grazed Calamity's right leg.

"You think your tough," Cid began," however, you have one flaw."

"What is that?"

Cid smirked," I know every move your going to make."

Cid then fired two shots at Calamity, one taking off his right arm and the other missed because Calamity dodged it. Calamity looked at his severed arm then looked at Cid.

"What," Cid asked," did I strike a cord?"

"You bastard!" Calamity then formed a blade and rushed at Cid. Cid immediately pulled out his sword and blocked the attack. The two then began a sword fight which seemed to last forever. Calamity seemed to be getting all of the hits, while Cid was barely being scraped. Finally Cid whispered," This is it!" He quickly shoved his sword threw the jaw of Calamity, and he made sure that the blade exited threw the skull. When he pulled back blood was shooting everywhere. Calamity's screams were echoing throughout the room as he slowly fell to the ground. Cid walked up to Calamity and sighed.

"It's over. Your now dieing, and once your dead inside you'll cease to exist. You'll finally be purged from my mind."

As Cid walked away, Calamity laughed maniacally. Cid turned around to see Calamity struggling to get off the ground.

"You're right Cid, I am dieing, but you'll never forget me. I'll never exist in a minuet, but…"

Calamity took his right arm, and using his remaining power, slashed Cid's right arm off of his body. Cid screamed in agony as he watched his arm flail on the ground. Calamity then placed his right arm on Cid's body. Calamity fell back on the ground, and as he began to fade away he finished his last sentence," I'll never exist in a minuet, but with my arm, you'll never forget about me. My power will run threw your veins, however, I won't be able to control you. If you want to survive I suggest you learn how to use your arm quickly. Now wake UP!"

And with that Cid awoke back in the medical room screaming. He quickly stopped and looked down at his right arm, and sure enough Calamity's arm replaced Cid's original arm.

"No…. NO!!"
