"Brrr…it's
freezing out here!"
Shortly
after Aeris left the bar, the snow started to fall heavier. She pulled up the
zip of her coat even higher and walked toward her house.
Suddenly,
she saw a figure in black cape in front of her. She walked closer toward the
figure to take a better look. Though she could only see the back of that man
and the man's face was covered with the hood of his cape, she felt like she was
struck by lightning. That figure looked too familiar to her. The figure is a
man, tall, carries a long sword and looked badly injured. He looks too much
like…See shook away her thoughts.
The
man was looking around, as like he was looking for something. The man stopped
for a while, and walked towards the great glacier. Aeris could resist her
curiosity, so she followed the man.
As
far as she know, the man surely needed a snowboard to get downhill. The man
could go far. She followed the man for quite a distance when suddenly, she saw
him walked into a small path. The path was so hard to spot because it was
perfectly camouflaged by the snow.
Aeris
followed the man even further. Now the man walked slower and suddenly he
collapsed onto the snow. The hood covering his face fell off and revealed his
face. It was Aeris's worst nightmare. Sephiroth.
Aeris
was so scared and she started to walk backwards. Suddenly she trip over
something and fell. Sephiroth turned his head and spotted Aeris. He quickly get
on his feet and ran towards Aeris.
Aeris
quickly jumped up and ran away from Sephiroth as fast as possible. She was
couldn't believe what see had just seen. Sephiroth was dead! He was killed by
Cloud on top of the Shinra Building. This couldn't possibly be happening!
Aeris
kept on running and don't care to turn back. Finally she was totally exhausted
and couldn't go ahead any longer. She turned her head and saw Sephiroth
catching up her.
"Why?!
Why did you always won't get off my life?!" Aeris shouted out when Sephiroth
was only a few feet away.
"No!
Don't sh…" before Sephiroth could even finish, there was a rumbling sound on
top of them. White snow came tumbling down and it looks like both of them are
in deep trouble. Aeris shout had caused an avalanche.
Aeris
was stunned and could only cover herself with her hands. But suddenly,
Sephiroth leaped toward Aeris and pushed Aeris downed. Then he fall onto Aeris
and everything went black.
When Aeris gained conciousness, she found
Sephiroth on top of her. She couldn't believed that he shielded her from that
avalanche. She quickly got out from the snow and prepare to run away. Sephiroth
was still unconcious and she can take advantage of this.
"Aeris…"
Aeris
stopped on her spot. She turned her head and saw Sephiroth that was still half
buried in the snow. Before she knew, she was already walking towards Sephiroth.
She had no idea why she did that. She could have just ran away. But she didn't.
She walked even closer to him. Now, she can take a clear look at him. Sephiroth
was bleeding all over, it couldn't have been cause by that avalanche, it must
have been something else.
Aeris
closed her eyes and prepare to run away again. But suddenly Sephiroth called
out her name again. She just stood there not moving. She really don't know what
to do.
"Doo!Doo!Doo!
I am the Dukes of the Hazzard! The dukes! The dukes!"
"Hey!
You ol' drunken pilot! Shut tha hell up or I will shove yer a$$ with my
gunarm!" Barret scolded.
"Yea!Yea!
Preeeeeety clouds in the sky! They are soooo pretty! But they are
gone…..gone….."
"Shut
up I said! Shut up!" Barret scolded again.
"Calm
down Barret. He just had a little more alchohol than he should. Why in such a
temper?" Tifa said while trying to get hold of Cid.
"Marlene
had school tomorrow and don't wan this ol' pilot to wake her up!" Barret
replied furiously.
"Chang!
Chang! Chang! Oh! Missile approaching! We are hit! Abandon ship! Zzzzzzzzz…….."
Cid shouted out and fell asleep.
"Now,
is this better?" Tifa asked.
Barret
had an irritated look on his face. He turned away and walk towards the hall.
Tifa could still hear Barret mumble something in a distance.
"Well,
everybody's home now. I can lie down and sleep for a moment." Tifa said and lie
down on her lazy chair after putting Cid on the couch.
"I
tell you Red! It's true! According to my fortune telling poker cards, we are
going to meet someone we won't expect to see in a short while." Cait Sith said
while following Red XIII towards the door.
"I
never believe in superstitual thing like this." Red XIII replied.
"But
I am telling you, these card can really tell the future!" Cait Sith convinced.
"Okay,
name one incident where your fortune telling cards showed you something that
actually came true." Red XIII said.
"Let
see…um…wait a minute can you?" Cait Sith replied.
Red
XIII shook his head and went lying down beside Cid. Suddenly, the doorbell
rang.
"Wow!
Never expect a customer to come at 3 in the morning! I will get it." Cait Sith
hop towards the door.
"What
do you say if it is Cloud who come in when I opened the door?" Cait Sith tried
to make some humour.
Red
XIII managed a smile and leave Cait Sith alone.
"Welcome
to the 7th Heaven! We serve…Oh my god! " Cait Sith said with
surprise when he open the door.
Cid
started to wake up when he saw the man at the entrance.
"Oh
look! I am dreaming already! Cloud is back!"
