Chapter 11: Reno is back!
Reno Romasova groaned as he woke up. "Shit. My head hurts." he muttered. "Where the hell am I?" he sat up. The last thing he remembered was being punched in the face by a purple haired woman and it hurt like hell. Reno felt his face. Hmm, that's weird. No broken bones or anything, he thought. Just as he was about to get up Elena and Rude burst in. "Reno!" Elena hugged him hard.
"Ow Elena! Damn it!" Reno said.
"How is this possible? Your face was like, messed up beyond repair!" Elena exclaimed. "And I'm supposed to answer that?" Reno snapped.
"This is really strange Reno." Rude crossed his arms.
"Yeah, no shit Rude. What did I miss while I was gone?" Reno sat up. Elena sat down in the chair next to his bed. "A LOT. We fought the Turks again, and we-well. I don't know who lost or won. And Lady Angel is repairing the Sister Ray." she replied.
"What the hell is she doing that for?" Reno asked angrily.
"Who knows? We haven't been able to even get close to her. Her Turks are always in the way." Elena muttered angrily.
"And there's something weird going on between Tifa and Trent." Rude spoke. Reno's eyes widened.
"Trent? Man, I always thought she'd end up with Cloud." he pondered. Then he turned angry. "She needs to stay away from that asshole! He may seem like a nice guy but he's a two-timing fucked up bastard!" he said. Just then, the Doctor walked in.
"Well Mr. Romasova. Tests show you're good to go. You may leave whenever you're ready. But-I still don't know how you healed so fast." he said.
"We'll probably never know Doc. I'm just glad to get outta here." Reno said. The Doctor said goodbye, and left.
"We should go back to the Velocity. Cloud and the others are there." Rude said. Reno stepped out of bed and looked into the bathroom mirror. "Man. Perfect as always." he smiled, rubbing his cheek.
Elena rolled her eyes, "Let's go."
~~~~~~
"Tifa, I don't want you around that man no more!" Barret yelled. Tifa had had it with everyone yelling at her about Trent. She was sick and tired of everyone.
"Stay away from the bastard. In case you didn't know, he's the enemy." Cid pointed out, taking a deep drag on his cigarette.
"Next thing ya know, she'll be falling for Sephiroth himself." he chuckled to himself. Tifa turned to them angrily.
"I am a GROWN woman! I am not a child that you can make decisions for! It is MY goddamn life and I can make my own fucking choices!" she yelled. Everyone was silent.
"Tifa. We're just trying to help." Cloud consoled.
"I don't need HELP!" she shrieked. She'd had it with them. She turned and fled through the door, just as Reno, Rude and Elena walked in.
"Hey, hey! What the hell is goin' on?" Reno asked. Cloud followed her out.
"Tifa! Where are you going?" he asked, as she saw her climbing off the ship.
"I need to get away! And don't you DARE follow me!" she yelled, hopping to the ground.
"Wait!" he called, leaning over the railing. But she had already run into Midgar. Cloud rubbed his temples and sighed.
"What the hell is wrong with her." he muttered, walking back to the bridge.
"Did you get her fool?" Barret roared as he walked in.
"No. She went back into Midgar." Cloud replied.
"Damn! What the heck has gotten into her?" Cid asked.
"Who knows?" Yuffie sighed. Everyone was silent for about ten minutes, until Cloud noticed Reno's face.
"Hey! Reno! Your-your face is healed!" he exclaimed.
"Yeah. Nice of you to notice." the red head replied sarcastically.
"How'd it happen? Some new miracle drug?" Cid lit another cigarette.
"That's the strange part. I just woke up and it was healed. Completely back to normal." Reno shrugged.
"At least your back. We need to figure out how to stop Lady Angel from completing the Sister Ray or 'Angel Ray' as she calls it." Cloud sighed.
"I know one thing, we'll need to get stronger before we fight those Turks again!" Cid exclaimed, slamming his fist on the floor. The others nodded in agreement.

Gemma waltzed into Shinra HQ smiling. Ice was the only one in the lobby. "What're you so happy about?" he asked.
"Just did my good deed of the day." she replied happily. She would NEVER tell him what it was, for then they'd think she was a traitor.
"Whatever." Ice said and walked away. Gemma hurried into the Common room and saw Lillith sitting on the couch, meditating. Gemma sneaked quietly by her and turned on the TV.
"You healed Reno Romasova's face." Lillith said. Gemma jumped in surprise.
"How'd you know that?" she asked nervously.
"We're twins Gemma." Lillith opened one purple eye.
"Y-yeah. Please don't tell Lady Angel." the green haired woman pleaded. "Don't worry-I won't. You're getting as bad as Trent though." Lillith snickered. Gemma sighed, and continued watching TV.
