Cid was tuning up the Tiny Bronco when Shera came out with the phone. "Cid, President Reeve is on the Phone."

"What the @^%* would he want?" Cid wondered aloud as he took the phone that was held out to him. He then put the reciver to his ear and gruffly said, "Highwind here."

"Cid, we have a problem. I want you to come to Neo-Midgar." Reeve spoke quickly.

"Neo-Midgar? That means..." Cid trailed off as he rembered the briefing almost two and a half years ago.

**********************************************************************************

Reeve stood in the Kalm town hotel, looking at the weary members of AVALANCHE. "Guys, I am sorry to call this meeting so soon after what you have been through but I need to tell you smoething very important."

Cloud sighed, and hugged Tifa closer to him, as she scooted over. "Alright Reeve, we're listening."

"Well, I found out that Neo-Midgar was built, and is waiting to be activated. Also, in time of extream emergancy the Shin-Ra tower could be jettosoned and flown to Neo-Midgar."

Reeve paused to let everything sink in.

Cid looked at Reeve. "How?" He asked.

"Well it seems that Neo-Midgar is sitting on a well of Mako. They thought it was the promised land because the vien was so deep that all the attempts at gageing how large it was failed. They then built reactors, and a plate. They added defense arms and everything so it was just as well protected as Junon." Reeve took a breath.

Cloud nodded slowly. "Now, why are you telling us this?"

Reeve spoke once more. "If anything attacked Midgar and destoryed it, you will get a call from me telling you that you are needed. After that I will tell you what the threat is and then you will come to a briefing in Neo-Midgar. Understand?"

Cloud nodded. The others did the same.

"Lets just hope we never get that call..." Cid muttered.

**********************************************************************************

And now Cid was standing in his backyard, listeing to Reeve tell him how Jenova was back, as was Hojo. "Alright, I get right on it." He siad and then hung the phone up.

Shera was makeing some tea when rapid steps halted her work. "Yes, Cid? Whats wrong?"

"Shera, stay here. I might be gone for a couple of days. Something *very* bad has happend." Cid said and moved into the room the shared and began to pack clothes.

"Cid what has happened?" Shera asked form the doorway.

"Jenova and Hojo are back, and they have destroyed Midgar." Cid said as he pulled the Venus Gospel from the wall rack.

Shera gaspes and nearly dropped the tea pot. She set it down and said, "Cid, come back as soon as you can. You here me?" She then kissed him.

"I will come back, I promise." He then strode out the door, and ran up to the Tiny Bronco. He threw his things in the added co-pilot seat behind the pilot's seat and started the plane up.

Shera sat down and listened as the Tiny Bronco started and then took off, heading towords Neo-Midgar.

Barret grinned at Marlane as he picked up the phone. "Barret Wallace's Bed and Breakfast." he said.

"Barret? It's Reeve. A Helicopter will be out front of your house in about a half hour. Board it and come to Neo-Midgar."

Barret nodded grimly and said, "Alright." and hung up the phone. He then walked up stairs to where Elmyra was and spoke quitely to her for a few moments. He then stepped into his room and pulled a large metal box from under his bed. He pulled the Missing Score from it and locked it onto his arm. As he walked down the stairs he heard the whiring of a helicopter. He opened the door and a small voice stopped him.

"Daddy? Where are you going?" Marlane asked.

"Honey, daddy has to go and see President Reeve. Now you stay here and be a good girl for Elmyra. I'll be back in a few days." Barret spoke silently and soothingly.

"Ok Daddy! I love you and I'll be a good girl." Marlane said.

"Good. I'll see you in a few days." He said and then walked out the door and to the waiting heilcopter.

Nanaki (Red XIII) was sitting in his gandfather's house. He sighed and began to read some of the books on the planet that Bugenhagen wrote. He grined in his cat-like manner and burried himself totally into the novel. But soon the Phone rang.

Nanaki nudged the phone from the hook and asked, "Hello?"

"Nanaki, hello. It's Reeve. A Helicopter will be waiting for you right outside Cosmo Caynon. Get on it and go to Neo-Midgar. I will explain everything there." Reeve said and quickly hung up.

Nanaki picked the phone up with his mouth and dropped it in the hook. He then pushed the door open and ran down the stairs and down to the guard at the gate. "I will be gone fro a few days. I have business to attend to."

The guard smiled, and said "That's alright Nanaki. You go ahead."

Nanaki ran down the stepes and outside the Canyon. True to his word a heilcopter was there. Nanaki got on and it lifted off into the blue sky.

Yuffie grinned at Vincent. "Come on Gramps!!"

Vincent stood, shirtless and sweating as he ran forward to try another combo of Wutaian style Kung-Fu. "Take that!" He said as he tripped Yuffie.

"Good job, old guy, but take this!" Yuffie leaned back onto her head and shoulders then sprang up, her feet contacting Vincent's chest and pushing him to the ground. She leaned in close, her mouth close to his. "So, old man... want to stop this and go onto things more interesting?" She asked in a sultry tone of voice.

"Perhaps..." He said, and spung up, pushing her over and pinning her to the floor. He moved in for a kiss but the phone rang. "I'll get it." he said and then sighed.

Yuffie pouted and got up, moving to take a shower.

Vincent picked up the phone, his metal claws clicking aginst the plastic. "Hello?"

"Vincent, this is Reeve." Reeve spoke.

"What can I do for you?" Vincent asked.

"I need you and Yuffie to board the heilcopter waiting for you and come to Neo-Midgar." Reeve replide.

"Alright. We will be on our was ASAP." Vincent said as he hung up.

Vincent, ran to the shower and yelled to Yuffie. "Yuffie we gotta go to Neo-Midgar. I'll jump in to save time!" Vincent the stripped down and jumped into the shower.

In Costa de Sol music thumped in Villia Cloud. It was fast paced Dance music, and two people where moveing around.

Tifa smiled as Cloud pushed her into a chair and then lifted her up, moveing to sit on the chiar with her, on his lap.

"Ooh. Cloud..." She said as he moved into her.

Cloud shot off his devil may care grin and then bagan to make love on the chair, slowly, and then intime to the music. Soon Cloud was holding onto Tifa and the chair was slaming into the table. Tifa was talking in a rasied voice, "Cloud! Cloud! Cloud! Cloud!"

Soon it became fantic and the chair and table where creaking and cracking in time with there pace. "Cloud! Cloud! Cloud!!!!" Tifa screamed as she hit climax with Cloud.

They sighed and fell from the chair, and onto the floor. Grinning like fools. Soon the phone rang and Cloud shut the music down. "Villia Cloud." he said as he picked the reciver up.

Reeve spoke up, and explained the whole situation. Cloud dropped the phone. "Tifa, go get dressed, and pack some clothes for me and you. Make it enough for about three days."

"Alright Cloudy. I'll get you your clothes too." She said.

"Alright. We will be right there." Cloud said, after he picked the phone up.

"Cloud? Before you hang up, I have to tell you something." Reeve said.

"What is it?" Cloud asked.

"We cloned Zack Darkblade. And we are in the process of cloneing another person." Reeve said.

Cloud smiled. "Really? Zack? Dose he rember anything?"

Reeve spoke. "Yes. He rembers everything."

Cloud grinned and said, "Good."

Cloud hung up the phone and got dressed. He pulled the Ultima Weapon from the wall and placed it on his back. "Tifa, get your Premium Heart on."

"Alright. But why?" She asked.

"Because Jenova and Hojo are back. We are at War." Cloud said.
