"Do all things happen for a reason?" "Is that why some people die and some live?" "Or is that just another hand fate plays..?" "It is unknown…fate is a puzzle that way…"
Chapter 14: Save her!
But before long the Turks had gotten to shinra headquarters. They had tied up the knocked out girls hand behind her back. And covered her mouth up; they didn't know what she would do when she did wake up. They started up the stairs to the president room. That was when she did wake up.
The girl quickly blinked looking around. "Hmm!" she yelled having something over her mouth. Rude looking down at the girl seeing she was awake. She started to kick her legs. "Whoa…" Rude whispered as Reno looked over to her. "Oh...she awake..?" Reno asked with a grin as they made it up the stairs. The girl glared toward Reno.
"Now. Now you should just stop fighting your not getting away anyways…" Reno said as a smiling appeared on his face. "The president wants a word with you anyways…" The two started toward a big door in front of them. Reno opened it letting rude enter first because he was holding the cetra. Then Reno followed closing the door behind them.
They walk to up a desk where a blonde man with a blanket over him was sitting. "Well. Well this is the cetra…?" the man asked standing up with a woman in blue help. "Yes. Sir..." rude said nodding to him. "Hmm..." The man said removing the blanket that had been over him. His whole face was ban aid up. It looked like he has been badly burned. "Reno remove that. From her mouth…" Reno did as he was told.
"Ouch! What the hell is this..?" was the first thing that came out of the girl's mouth. The blonde man slowly smiled. "Hmm...Not scary to speak your mind uh?" He asked as he keeps smiling toward the girl. "Elena…Reno you may leave…" the two nodded leaving the room. Now she was alone with this blonde guy and the guy behind her. Holding her there to make sure she didn't get away.
"Hmm...So you're really this cetra..?" he asked picking up the newspaper showing her it. "…" she looked to the paper then back up at him not saying a word. "Hmm...I guess the rumors. Are true then…" he said drop the newspaper on his desk. "Rumors…?" she asked looking at the blonde man.
"That…you are the...hmm how should I put this…" the man asked placing a hand under his chin. "That. You are the reincarnation of this devil child…" he said pointing at the newspaper. "I am not a devil!" she yelled kicking her legs again. "Hmm...How fates place a hand…placing the world last hopes on one that is as well the reincarnation of a devil…" She growled at the blonde hair man.
She didn't like him at all. He didn't understand at all. Jenova wasn't a devil child to begin with. Her power had just scared everyone into fear around her. "Oh...may...I have even told you my name…" the blonde said with a smile walking toward the girl. "My name is Rufus the president of Shinra Inc…" he said bowing to her. She did her best to try to kick him as he bowed but rude quickly back up taking her with him. "Hehe...what a fighter…she is…" Rufus smiled. Then he placed a hand under her chin, she quickly tried to bite his hands. He laughed pulling his hand away. "Not too friendly are. You?" He asked grinning at the girl.
She glared at him again. She didn't want to be friendly. Especially not to someone like him; "just get on with it! What do you want?" She yelled but she could feel her hands were tied together. So even if she tried something she couldn't get away. "Fine fine…" rude looked toward the door. "No rude I need you here…" Rufus said keeping a smile on his face. Rude slowly nodded to him.
Rufus when behind his desk searching for something; She looked confused watching him. What in the world could he be searching for? She wondered. "Hmm...Ah!" Rufus said holding a folder in his hand. He head back in front of the desk looking at the girl again. "Do you know what this is?" He asked. She slowly glared at him, "I believe that called a folder…it something that holds papers…" Rufus started to laugh a bit.
"Well yes. That is true little Ms. Smart ass..." he said with a grin. "But I'm talking about what's in the folder..." she give him a look like she was lost. "Don't know I take it? Then I'll show you…" he slowly opened the folder. She stared in shock by what she saw. It was a picture of aerith! She quickly shook her head looking away. Rude quickly made her head face forward again.
"Oh...from that reaction...I take it you know her…?" Rufus asked looking in the girl's eyes. She slowly looked up at Rufus in angrier. "So how do you know aerith…?" Rufus asked placing the folder into his desk. "What in the world would I tell you?" she yelled toward him. "Fine then don't tell me Sara Ceres…" she had a shock look on her face. He knew her name?
"No need to look so surprised…" he said pulling another folder out of his jacket. He quickly opened the folder. Then he showed it to her. There were pictures of her. It was info on her? They were even pictures of here when she tried to enter soldier! She looked up at him in angrier again. "As you can see…I have lots of dirty on you…" he said placing the folder back into his jacket.
"But. If you do as I say…nothing bad will happen to you. Is that understood?" He asked stepping toward her. "…" she slowly nodded to him. "Very good I want some questions answered then…" he crossed his arms. "First…off you real a full bleed cetra right…?" she nodded to him in answer. "Pure blood...hmm…even those you look like a normal human…" Rufus said rubbing his chin.
She glared at him. Was he going to be like this for all the questions? She hoped not. "Then tell me…is it true. That full bleed cetra may only fall in love with one person they're whole life…?" she looked confused by the question. She never heard of anything like that. "Huh…?" he grinned looking at her. "I never heard of that…" she whispered looking back at him. But she wondered why he was grinning.
"Hmm I see…but I believe your people wanted nothing to do with humans at one time…" she slowly nodded. "Yes. That true. Elders didn't like the idea of are blood mixing with humans…because they believe it would be the end of are people…" Rufus started moving toward her again. "…?" why was he still grinning? What did he have planned? "And it looks like they were right…" she give him a confuse look. "Because your people give in…to they're feelings…they slow die out…" "Just like when they give in to fear to the child with dark powers…" She glared toward him.
"Jenova couldn't help with the great power she was born with!" she yelled looking up at him. "Hehe…looks like I hit something…" Rufus said placing a hand on top of the girl's head. "Well let me get to the real reason. I ask for you here…" the girl looked lost. "The real reason…?" she asked.
"Yes…" he answered as the grin on Rufus' face became bigger. She started to get a really bad feeling. "Rude…" Rufus said as the silent one nodded. He quickly grabs the girl by the legs making her sit down on the floor. "What the hell?" She yelled looking back at the silent one. The silent one started to blush a bit as he moved the girl's legs apart.
"…!" she quickly got the idea what they were planning. She quickly tries to close them. But the man's arms were too strong for her. "Oh...I think she got the idea…" Rufus whispered kneeing down in front of her. "You prevents keep away from me!" she yelled trying to get away from the two of them. "Oh...my...what a mouth you have…" Rufus placed some tape over her mouth.
"Mmm!" she yelled. "Hehe…" Rufus whispered as a red light filled the room. "Hmm…what now…?" Rufus walked behind his desk to check a screen. "Oh...he right on time…" Rufus grinned knowing the look on his face would be priceless. He slowly head back over to the girl. "Well then…should we start…?" rude looked away. "yes…rude you may not want to see this…" with that Rufus slowly kneed down in front of the girl again; Moving his hands closer and closer to her shoulders.
A bike quickly stops in front of Shinra Inc headquarters. He stared up at the building in angrier. He remembers when they kidnap aerith. Just seeing this place standing again; it made his blood boil. He couldn't stand shinra at all specially after everything they had done. He shook his head now wasn't the time to be thinking like this. He had to hurry inside and stop them before they did do something to her.
He needed the fastest way up. Even if they would know he was there. He quickly got off his bike. And he made his way in the front door. He did say faster way right? Some people screamed as soon as he entered. Some little soldier ran up to him. "…you're in my way…" cloud yelled making short work of them. He then nodded holding his sword by his side as he ran up some stairs to the second floor.
He watches as some more little soldier came running toward him. "Don't let him get to the elevator!" one of the soldiers yelled. He shrugged a bit standing ready for them. He quickly held his sword into the air letting out a blade beam making short work of them. "…buying time huh..?" he whispered running to the elevator he pushed the button. Then the door opened, he quickly ran inside as he watched more soldiers running up the stairs toward him.
He quickly closed the door of the elevator, and then it started moving. "Hmm...What floor was it on…?" He whispered to him self. He nodded. "69th…" he remembers it only when to 68 so he had to hit that one. The elevation started to up. Then a loud sound when off; "hmm…damnit...they know I'm coming…" he whispered as the door opened on floor 60th.
He found some soldiers standing there. "Stop him!" one of them yelled. Cloud shrugged. Cloud quickly blocked they're gun shots with his sword then Slash them. They quickly fell and he more coming toward him. "I really don't have time for this…" he quickly closes the elevator door. IT slowly started to move again. "Come. On come on!" he yelled the elevator was taking too long for him. Couldn't it go any faster?
It looked up to see what floor he was on now. It said 65th. He sighed to him self; "come on. Hurry up…" he whispered under his breath. The elevator started to bounce a bit. It was very close to the last floor now. But he started to feel sick to his stomach. "Ugh...what a time for moving sickness to kick in…" he whispered placing a hand over his mouth. 'Hurry up…!' he cried inside. The elevator quickly stopped. He looked looking up it said 68th floor. He quickly removed his hand from his mouth.
"Finally!" he yelled running out of the door. He looked around but didn't see any guards. That wasn't normal. No guards so close to the president room? Something didn't feel right to him. He knew it was better not to worry about it right now. He quickly made his way into the west room. But he still found no guards.
He could see stairs in front of him that would take him up to the president's room. But he quickly stops as soon as he steps into the first step. "Stop. Where are you cloud…" a voice yelled behind him. He slowly turned around to find Reno and Elena standing there. 'Great. Just what I needed…' he thought.
"Well. Well it has been too long cloud…" Reno said with a grin. "Can it. I don't have time to deal with you…" Reno laughed a bit. "Aww…? It just like old times isn't it?" rolled his eyes. He hoped he would never have to see the Turks again. But that wish didn't come true. "I don't have time for this…where Sara…?" He asked glaring toward the two.
"Sara…? Oh I guess you mean that girl. The president questioning…" Elena whispered. Reno shook his head a bit. "You still talk too much Elena…" she quickly looked toward Reno. "You talk more then I do…!" she yelled pointing a finger at him. "So what's your point?" he asked crossing his arms. "My point is that when I say things they make sense unlike you who just have to flirt with every girl you see!" cloud shook his head a bit watching the two.
He started to wonder if you didn't see brains to enter the Turks to start with. "Saying that makes you sounds jealous…" he grinned looking to Elena. She started to blush a little. "What the hell would I be jealous?" she yelled. "Don't know that a good question…" Reno said moving his face close to her. Cloud watched as Elena smacked Reno. "Ouch. God what was that for?" he yelled now sitting on the floor.
"…." Cloud shook his head now. He was sure Turks didn't need brains to join. He sighed as Elena quickly blinked. "Oh yes. That right cloud here…" Reno laughed a bit standing up. "Sorry. But the president can't be bugged right now. He busy asking her..." but before she could finish a scream was heard from where they were.
All three of them looked up toward the stairs. "Huh…that weird. Why would she scream from question asking…?" Cloud slowly gave Elena a look like she was crazy. Cloud quickly ran up the stairs. "Hey!" Elena yelled running after him. Cloud quickly opened the door closing it quickly behind him. "Hey!" Elena yelled from the outside. Cloud quickly locked it.
"Well well. Your here sooner then I thought…" He glared toward Rufus. But part of him was surprised to see him alive. "…you're alive…?" He asked looking at the man. "Well yes. As long as my will lives so will my scar body." He said with a grin. "Where. Is she?" cloud asked glaring at him. "Oh right here…" Rufus nodded to rude. Rude slowly turned around to show girl all tied up with tape over her mouth.
"Sara…!" he yelled she could tears running down her cheeks. What had no idea what they did to her but she didn't look too happy about it. "What did you do to her?" Cloud yelled feeling his angry grow. "Oh...nothing much...just touched her upper leg...but she had a kicking problem..." he said pointing to his cheek.
"Mmm!" she yelled trying to get away from rude. Rude shook his head a bit looking toward the president. "…she isn't staying here any longer…she coming with me…" cloud whispered staring at Rufus. "No. she stays here...I still need things answered…" cloud didn't care. "I don't care if you have questions! She isn't staying here…" cloud yelled as a grin appeared on Rufus' face again.
"Very well…rude take care of him…" rude giving him a look then looked down at the girl; "do not worry I'll take care of her..." rude nodded handing the girl over to the president. She started to move around wildly. Rufus grinned holding the girl down.
Cloud couldn't bear to watch this anymore. He held his sword tight by his sword watching the silent one come closer and closer to him. "Rude…just step aside…" cloud whispered watching him. He slowly shook his head at cloud. "I can not do that…" he whispered. It wasn't normal to hear rude say anything. Rude was the more normal Turks out of all of them. The only thing weird about him was he didn't talk much.
"Very well…" cloud whispered running toward him. As he did the door opened. Reno and Elena ran in running into rude falling into each other. Cloud stops standing there. "…" all three of them started to scream at each other. "GOD GET OFF ELENA!" Reno yelled at the girl. "NO! You get off my arm first!" she yelled trying to free her arm that was under Reno.
Cloud shook his head a bit turning back around to face Rufus. "Uh...what timing they have…" he whispered still holding the girl there. "…let go of her…" cloud whispered glaring at Rufus. Rufus quickly did but pulled his gun out of his jacket. "Just because I'm not holding her doesn't make you can take her away…" Rufus quickly started toward cloud. But as he got close he quickly stop. He let out a loud yell; then he fell to the ground.
Cloud stood there looking confused. Then he looked at Sara to see her leg up in the air. Cloud felt sweat drop down his face. He knew she had kicked Rufus where no guy should be kicked. "Mmm!" she yelled toward cloud. He quickly ran over to her kneeing down in front of her. "This…may hurt a bit..." he whispered placing a hand by her mouth where the tape was. She quickly closed her eyes as she felt him quickly pull the tape off.
"OUCH GOD!" she yelled keeping her eyes closed. "Hehe..." cloud whispered looking at her. He found him self slowly smiling. She was never helpless even if she was tired up. She slowly opened her eyes looking up at the blonde swordsman. "…umm...are you going to untie me or not…?" she asked giving him a confused look.
He looked lost for a second then he quickly shook his head. "Umm...oh yeah…" he quickly untied her hands. She started to rub them a bit. They had been tied up for sometime. "Are. You ok..?" he asked looking worried at her. "Yes…I'm fine…" she whispered looking away. She didn't understand why he would come after to save her. But cloud wasn't too sure she really was. Cloud blinked hearing yelling behind them again.
"Get off me! Or they will get away!" Reno yelled at Elena. "No! Get off my arm first stupid!" cloud shook his head watching them. And rude just lay there silent trying to get out from under the two. Cloud slowly turned back to look at the girl. "We should leave. Before they learn how to stand back up…" the girl slowly nodded to him. "Yeah..." cloud slowly stood up helping the girl to her feet.
Then the two nodded running out of the room. "LOOK they are getting away! And this is your entire fault, Reno!" Elena yelled still trying to free her arm. "My fault? Your fat body on top of me!" he yelled trying to push her off.
The two could still hearing them yelling at other from outside the room. Cloud shook his head a bit. "Well. We should get moving before…soldiers come after us…" he whispered taking hold of Sara's hand. She slowly nodded as they started they long run down the hall way. Cloud could only hope that the elevator was still running. If they were it would be a bit faster then running down stairs.
They made it to where the elevators were. Cloud quickly pushed the button with his free hand. They could hear the elevator coming up. But they could always hear running behind them. "…I think they about here…" Sara whispered looking up at him. He nodded quickly pulling the girl in front of him. He then turned to where a ground of soldier shook in front of him. He quickly pulled out his sword and let a huge blade beam at them.
The soldiers quickly jump aside as the door way came down blocking the way from them entering. He nodded then the elevator opened the two hurry inside; after getting inside cloud quickly closed the door but the numbers of the floors started acting up again. "Damnit…" cloud whispered shaking his head.
He checks to make sure she was behind him. She gives him a confused look. She was. He keep his sword by his side, he had to be ready. The door quickly opened on the 65th floor. A group of soldiers were standing there. "Don't let them get away!" one of them yelled. Cloud quickly placed a piece of material into his sword.
He held his sword in front of the room way. The ground under the soldier started to shake a bit. "Earth2!" he yelled as the ground gave away. The soldiers let out a yell falling to the ground. Then cloud placed his sword by his side again as the door closed. The elevator started to move down again.
Cloud kept watching the numbers they were slowly getting closer and closer to the ground level. Even those he was sure the door he came in would be blocked by then. He would need to make a new way out. And he was ready to do so for her.
The girl looked very confused watching him. Why…would he come after me…? I'm not even that special. And to shinra…I'm only an item…needed to keep the world pure? Is anything really pure anymore? What is truly pure? I'm pure…because…I never had been truly loved by anyone…? Is that what you call a pure person…or a holy woman..? The girl wondered standing there deep in thought.
The elevator quickly stopped. "Sara…!" the girl quickly blinked looking at the boy. "Huh…?" he held his hand out to her. "This is no time to be thinking…come on!" he yelled taking a hold into the girl's hand. The two quickly ran out of the elevator. Gun fire quickly started at the two as the exit the elevator. "Get down!" cloud yelled pushing the girl in back of him.
Cloud quickly pulled out another material and placed it into his sword. He held the sword in front of him blocking the gun fire coming toward them. "Fira!" He yelled as a wall of fire appeared in front of them. The soldiers quickly stop firing stepping back some. Cloud nodded so far so good. He thought. He quickly ran over to Sara taking a hold into her hand again.
They ran up some stairs into a shop in the building. As they enter a women welcome them. "Welcome to. The ahhh!" the women yelled seeing who they were. The two soldiers in the shop quickly turned around. "It the cetra! Don't let her get away…!" the soldiers yelled. Cloud shook his head a bit. He quickly made his way pass the two as they fell to the ground.
"Easy. As pie…" he whispered as the women screamed again hiding under her desk. Cloud then made his way over to the bike in the shop. He check to make sure it did work. He was lucky that it did. He slowly nodded to him self. He had to get it ready.
The girl watched him. She had questions because she didn't understand at all. She slowly walks up to him who was checking on the bike. "Cloud…?" he quickly turned to look at girl. "Hmm? Yes Sara…?" He asked wondering what she wanted. "…why did you save, me..?" cloud stared at the girl unsure of how to answer her.
