Cloud opens his eyes to find Tifa next to his bed. "Oh my head, this stuff is awful!" Tifa smiles at him. "At least you're still alive. And we have news on our friend and for you guys. When you can get up come with me to the conference room, then we talk." He sits up "What?" Tifa stays up. "Just get dressed and come. The other wake up too now." "Tifa can we talk for a second?" She shakes her head. "No not now, maybe later ok?" Cloud nods. "Ok we talk then!" He gets up and gets dressed while Tifa waits outside in front of the door. Then he steps out. "Gosh do you feel like I do?" comes a voice from the right, there stays Loz. Cloud nods "Yes, but I guess we did not kill anyone. So it's a price we have to pay!" Barrett looks around the corner "Ah you're awake too, now we have to wait for Zack and Kadaj, then we're complete." Sephirtoth comes out of one room, behind him Vincent. He looks at Cloud. "Sorry about last night and thank you." Cloud just nods "I'm sure you would done the same for me, so no need for that."

Yazoo joins the group now too with Red. "That was awful, but thanks Vincent!" Yuffie comes with Kadaj. "Ok Zack will come shortly. Tifa what did you do to him?" Tifa giggles. "I had no gun so..." "Tifa! You did not!" Cloud looks at her. "I had too. We met in the kitchen. I hit him with a frying pan!" Cloud just stares at her "Oh god poor Zack! Barrett remind me, to never get her pissed in the kitchen ok?" Surprised looks Barrett at Cloud. "I will or at least I try!" Now Cid comes out of a room, behind him Zack. He spots Tifa. "You! Stay away from me. Cloud she's deadlier than that thing!" Tifa smiles at him "I had no gun. I'm sorry. But I promise, from now on I will carry one. Better?" Zack sights "I'm just glad no one of my old comrades will ever know I got beaten by a girl with a frying pan!" Sephiroth grins at Zack "And what you call Cloud and me?" Zack turns red. "Oh shut up Seph or..." Vincent interrupts him "If you done give I you both a frying pan if we beat the thing, now let's go!"

Soon the whole group sits in the conference room with Reeve and Dr. White. "Ok you guys I want ýou to listen careful what Dr. White will tell you and then we tell you what we got told last night. Soon know all of them what is going on. "So one of us has to die for the world to survive." mumbles Zack "Great! Now what , draw we straws?" asks Loz dryly. Cloud shakes his head "No, it will be one of us to do that!" "What you mean by that?" wants Reeve to know. "I think what Cloud means is, that thing can take us easier than you. One of us will be the bait, the other take the virus and are safe." says Kadaj. Sephiroth nods. "But all of us have to make it down into the cave or we have no chance to beat that thing." Tifa looks at the men. "So it comes down to: Who is going to die again? Sorry!" she lowers her head. "Tifa we all took the risk of not making it so..." begins Loz and Yazoo finishes "At least we met you and fought with you." Kadaj looks at the round "Since it is one of us who dies, could we discuss this under us! Sorry you guys, but I think that's only fair." Vincent looks at him "You know, I'm glad I met the real you. I guess we can give you guys that! Will you let us know who the one is?" Sephirot shakes his head. "No, something could happen, we need you on your toes all the time! Even if the other take the virus, it's better so!" The other nod.

"True, we don't know if the virus is strong enough down there!" says Zack. "But..." begins Tifa. "He's right and you know that. You can't trust either one of us when we're down there, not even me." Cloud looks at her. "So would you please leave us alone. We come back out when we're done!" The other leave and Tifa turns to Barrett. "He can't be serious?" Barrett looks at her. "They are! Tifa!" Vincent mumbles. "Let's hope the virus works or we have not only one but six of those things." Yuffie bleaches. "But then..." Red growls "Then we have to kill them all." Tifa goes white "I could not do that!" Barrett says quietly. "Now you know why he wanted you to go with Zack. I know what you think, but I hate the thought of killing him. But if needed I will and he knows that. So we wait here and pray for them." A while later emerge the six men and Cloud steps to Reeve "Ok we're done. We need the virus before we go, but no one of you will know who is who!" Reeve nods "Ok we do that!"

Aerith watches the scene "I'm so sorry for you guys. If I could do anything I would." she whispers. Mrs. Strife looks at her. "I know what you mean. I hate to be helpless. Oh if I could go there...What?" Aerith giggles "Now I know from whom he got his temper." Mrs. Strife begins to smile. "Yes he's my son alright, but to much happened to him since he was a child." Aerith says "If I had not to watch the lifestream I would go too, but I'm glad you keep me company. And I wish all will be ok!" The two woman keep watching.
