Chapter IV
As the new trio walked down what is now called Brodway St. to get on the train to Sector 7 Cloud continued to sense something. What was it? I wonder if Tifa has sensed it he thought to himself. Better not mention it. Don't want to scare her or the young boy. When they finnaly reacheched the station Cloud had totally forgotten 'bout those " figures ". As they walked towards the train they were met by two officers
" Excuse me. But may we see your train passes? " asked one of the officers while the others looked at Polenskie with an odd face.
" Sure thing. Is something wrong? It has been a while since there were any officers here. " questioned the inqusite Tifa, as she handed the officer with the name tag stating that his name was Joe.
" We know. But since there has been a significant rise in train robberies, CEO of the the Mass Transit Corporation, Vincent Valentine, asked that the police department keep tabs on the station for it is making people weary and therefore a loss in income " answered the other officer who name appeared to be Rufus.
What a cawincedence stated Tifa to himself. If I remember right that is the name of the old Shinra president. Nah.. It couldn't be. " Alright. Thank You. Well if you will please excuse us. We are kinda late for our dinner plans " said Tifa as she accepted the cards from the officers.
" Umm. Hold up a sec. Who is this young man. I knowticed he did not have a card. You know we can not allow him on even if you guys are good friends of Barret. The law is the law. " said Joe, the first officer of the two.
" Yes, I know. We kinda had a bad encounter with the young fellow earlier " said Tifa glancing at Cloud.
" Do you need us to take him in? We have seen him 'round the Wall Market. Always knew he was trouble! " The second Officer questioned.
" No, no it was our fault, well not our fault, but mine. " said Cloud as he finally spoke up after a long dramatic pause and a nudge by his wife.
" Ok.Well we will him on this once. But if he wants to continue to ride the trains, he will need to get a pass. " pointed out Joe.
" Alright, sounds good to us, no if you will excuse us " Thanked Tifa.
As the trio stepted onto the train they waved and once again thanked the two kind officers. After the doors had closed they looked for an area where they could all sit. They finally found one near the back of the third train car. As they sat down and started to enter a long, and dark tunnel, the train came to a sudden halt throwing all the passengers to the ground.
" What the fuck was that? I am going to see what the hell happened. Tifa stay here with the boy. If I do not come back in 5 minutes get of the train and get to Barret as soon as possiblle. Understood? " instructed Cloud. After receiving a nod from Tifa he headed off.
Running through the train as fast as he could he finally came up to the 2nd train door that leads to the first. About to jump through to the next train he knowticed a bunch of bandits holding hostages. * Damn it. They will be expecting someone to come through these doors. WAIT! I got an idea! * Cloud pondered, and witht hat he ran back to the train 2 & 3 connection area and with a swift flip he jumped onto the top of Train 2's roof. Steadily he made his way down the roof watching for any bandits and obsticles that might be hanging from the top of the tunnel. As he reached the end of train two he could hear two of the bandits talking at the train 1 & 2 conncetion area.
" Hey, I will get the right side and you get the left. We will work our way down the aisle until every traincar has been cleaned then we will get back up front and meet the boss and get of Richer than yesterday! " commanded the uglier of the two thiefs.
" Alright Big Jack. Sounds good, but what are we taking? I forgot. " asked the second thief.
" You moron! " groaned Big Jack as he smacked him across his head. " Anything that looks valuable! "
With that said and done the two thiefs headed into the train to do their dirty deeds. Cloud could here the cries of both children and woman as they got their valuables stolen right from their hands.
" Damn it! There is nothing I can do. I will have to leave it to Tifa. Lets hope she is ready for this. " muttered Cloud to himself as he jumped from the first train to the engine as silent as the country side wind.
With Cloud trying to save the day once again he has to let two deadly bandits work their evil scheme. Can Cloud save the day. Well most likely since he is the hero, right? Well find out on the next chapter of Final Fantasy VII: The S
