"So how does it feel?" Sephiroth snickered.

Aeris' hair was falling in wisps in front of her face. She was suffering. And her breath became shorter.

I mustn't give in…

Aeris looked at Sephiroth…

"My friends will stop you…they will protect the planet." Aeris said.

"Ah. So you believe they will. How can you count on them? You count on them to come here and save you. And look here. THEY ARE NOT HERE…they don't care what happens to you…you are nothing!!" Sephiroth laughed.

They're not here…

They don't care…

I'm nothing to them…I don't mean anything…

Energy drained from her body…she only had about a day to live…

Cloud doesn't love me…and he wouldn't even remember me…

He has Tifa…

He loves Tifa…

I'm just a flower girl…

But I love him…

But he doesn't love me…

Tears fell from her eyes.

And I'll die and he won't remember…remember our memories…

Aeris looked to the stars…

Cloud where are you…? I can't be like this…… I have to believe in them…they will only come if I believe…

Cloud…Please come for me…

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

Cloud stood on the Highwind deck looking to the sunrise. The sun's yellow glow touched his face, bringing out his handsome features.

Wind blowing through his hair, he looked to the Horizon.

There on the Horizon, barely visible to the new coming day…was the town of the Forgotten City.

They had made it.

"Everyone get ready for landing…"Cloud shouted.

The members of AVALANCHE assembled to the deck fully equipped with Materia and Weapons. It was time to save their friend.

One by one each member got off the Highwind and began to make their way to the Forgotten City…

Cloud looked to the Forgotten City's form…

Aeris…please be alright…

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

Sephiroth looked at Aeris suffering and began to snicker again.

"So how's our little Ancient doing? Looks like your time is almost up. And your friends aren't coming how about that? You believe so much and you just end up wrong! BWAHAHGHAHHAHA!" Sephiroth laughed hysterically.

Aeris looked up at Sephiroth…

"You're despicable." She said as her eyes narrowed.

"Despicable? BWAHAHAHA! Call me whatever you want Ancient! But I will be the last one to laugh…" Sephiroth retorted.

Aeris' breathing was now very shallow.

"They'll…come…my friends….will…come…" Aeris panted..

"You only have about 1 hour left…enjoy your last moments of life…little Cetra…" Sephiroth said smugly. "I can feel the power… its almost done…soon I will be Invincible! Bwahahahhaaaaaa!"

Aeris hung her head down…

Hurry Cloud…

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

Cloud and the party were running through the forest towards the Forgotten City. Cloud was running so fast the party was having a hard time keeping up.

'C'mon! She needs us!' Cloud screamed.

Cloud ran through the forest until he could see the entrance to the Forgotten City…

But suddenly…

ROAR!!!!

A Vlakorados jumped out of nowhere and slashed Cloud across the chest. Cloud fell to the ground with a thud.

"Where did that come from?" Cloud said as he scrambled to his feet.

Vlakorados was a monster with a high HP! With fierce claws and Lightning fast reflexes. This is was going to take awhile…

It was standing in front of the entrance…

No way around it!

"Cloud!' screamed Tifa.

"We're coming!" shouted RedXIII.

Soon joined by his friends…Cloud jumped into Battle stance. Gripping the Ragnorok in his hands…the battle began…

Tifa kicked the beast with a powerful kick!

Cloud slashed the beast through the chest.

RedXIII casted Ice3!

The beast roared! It slashed all three warriors across the chest with it's spiky tail. The three tumbled to the ground.

Cid jumped and stabbed it through the body.

Barret shot some rounds into the beast's head.

Cait Sith casted Tornado!

The beast casted a powerful lightning spell on the three as they flew back.

Yuffie and Vincent both attacked on with a full force.

But no avail they were also hit pretty hard.

The beast jumped and casted a spell…

TRINE!

Everyone was hit and hurt pretty hard…they were all in critical condition!!!

"Ughhh….I won't give up!" Cloud grumbled.

Cloud pulled out a red materia…

ULTIMATE END!!!!!!!!!

Twelve knights of the Round came and slashed through and through on the Vlakorados.

It roared in pain as slash after slash it was cut through and through…

As the last knight slashed the Vlakorados, it roared one last time…

…then it fell dead.

Cloud panted and panted…

The others got up and Yuffie pulled out her Restore Materia…

Cure3

Everyone was fully healed as they entered the City and made their way to the Altar.
