Professor Johnson sighed. He gazed at the body in the cloneing vat. This might be a failure. The technology was new, and with Zack they had a body and blood samples on file. With the new one... well they had blood samples but that was it. They had reconstructed the face and added muscle tone to him, makeing him more powerful, but he was still the same size.
The Professor sighed again, becasue anything could go wrong. All they had was a charred skin sample and blood samples. He had so little matrial to work with. Any number of things could go wrong. Mental retardation, the cells could be corrupt and he could end up decomposeing slowly from the outside in, he could go insane and start killing people.
The intercom rang. "Yes?" Johnson asked.
"How is everything comeing?" Reeve asked
"Right on time. As soon as you bring everyone down here we will wake him." The Professor said.
"Alright. Reeve out."
The Professor shut off the intercom. He then strightend his black tie, pulled on his white labe coat and picked up a clipboard. After reading it over he began to make the proper notations.

Cid landed the Tiny Bronco on the Neo-Midgar landing station. He jumped out, bringing his things with him. He got some strange stares from guards as he walked towords the President's office with the large spear in his hand. But, they knew who he was, and let him go.
Reeve leaned back in his leather chair, reading over a status reprot from General Zack. "Good... everything is going as planned." He looked up as Cid walked in, promptly droping his back in a corner of the room along with his spear.
"I'm here. Now what do I do?" Cid mumbled, takeing a cigarette out and lighting it up.
"We wait for the others." Reeve said.
Cid was about to say something when Barret walked in, and was soon followed by Nanaki.
Barret looked at the younger blonde man and barked out, "Cid, it's good to see your skinny ass again!"
Cid grinned and yelled back in mock anger. "Hey you cheap piece of *&%#! I heard you got a Hotel now."
"Yep. I make a good gil to." Barret said smugly.
"Well, it's good to see you too, Red." Cid said to the large animal.
"Greetings, Cid. It is nice to see you also." Nanaki said.
Reeve spoke up. "If you could take a seat we can start when the others get here."
The three took thier seats and waited.

"We are late!" Cloud said, running with the huge sword on his back, getting stares from just about every one.
"Calm down, Cloudy." Tifa said with a giggle as she carried the suitcase, filled with what they would need for three days.
"I know Tifa. It's just that I was hopeing to be ontime. This is very important." Cloud said, and sowed his pace as they got to the president's door.
"In we go," Tifa said.
Cloud opened the door and entered. In the corner he saw gear of all kinds in the chiars he saw his comrades. He entered, the large sword on his back still impressive as ever. He pulled it off and held it infront of him as he sat down. Tifa sat next to him and Reeve smiled. "All here?"
Yuffie and Vincent burst into the room. "Now we are all here!" She yelled.
"Alright." Reeve said. "Now, less then twenty-four hours ago a Jenova Hybrid attacked Midgar and completely destroyed it, leaveing nothing but a pile of twisted metal. Then the creatures came, with Hojo at the back. We did not get a good look at him, but it appears that he is still alive. How, we don't know."
Vincent grit his teeth. He saw Cloud's sword pierce Hojo with a killing blow.
Reeve continued on. "Now, we have SOLDIER commanded by Zack. We will have our main ground forces commanded by Cloud, if he accepts. And for a secondary ground force it will be headed up by the new person we are cloneing now."
"Who is it?" Cloud asked.
"Let me show you." Reeve said and got up.
***********************************************************************************
They all filed into the observation room. They looked down and into the tank. There was a collective gasp. "Is that who it will be?" Cloud asked.
"Yes." Reeve replied and then reached from the comlink. "You may start the waking process."
"Yes, Mr. President." Johnson replied.
Johnson walked over and pressed a button on the wall and a control pannel rose from the floor. He pulled a key from around his neck and pushed it into the lock. He turned it and opened the bullet proof glass up. He then pressed the large red button.
The liquid drained from the tank and the figure inside began to move. Ivory skin as smooth as silk glinted on the hash artifical light and a hack was heard. The figure looked up and shook his head. Johnson stepped up and opend the vat. "Please get out."
The figure got out. And stood infront of the Professor.
"Please state your name." Johnson said, as the intercom was still on and those above could here them.
The figure smiled and spoke, "Rufus J. ShinRa."
