Chapter 3
Cid ran outside trying to follow as close as he could with Tifa and Barret who were both going extremely fast so they could get Palmer. He hit a small rock on the ground and tripped landing face first on the ground, mud caked his face. When he looked up Tifa, Barret, and Marlene were gone. Cid got up and brushed himself off quickly and turned to run but was held back by something that gripped at his ankle.
"Guys! Where'd you go! Come back!"
Cid feels back on his stomach and gripped at the ground to get back up but it was no use he was stuck on it no matter what. He flipped himself on his back and looked up at what looked like a giant sand worm. His spear was close to his hand and reached for it but his arms were too short,
"Ah fuck!"
He pushed off with his free foot at the spear but still couldn't get it. He began to feel himself being hoisted into the air. When he looked down he saw the worm slowly open it's mouth and close it as he was slowly lowered into it. When his arms were close enough to touch the monster he gripped the opening of the mouth and tried hard to close it. He pushed off it with all his strength, trying to make it let go but it seemed to be no use. He began to be slowly pushed farther towards the opening of the Worm but a sudden shot was fired at the vine holding him up and he fell to the ground with a sickening thud,"
"Shit, what the hell?"
He looked up and saw his Venus Gospel was an arm length away. He reached out without a second thought and grasped it at his hand, another gun shot was heard from behind him and the roar of the sand worm echoed through the plains as more shots followed. Cid flipped himself over and saw a red cape flowing with the wind and the monster was slowly coming to the ground as blood spilled from it's wounds throughout his body. When the monster finally fell, Cid looked up at surprise at the man and noticed that when he placed the gun back on his left side belt it was like a gold claw. His raven black hair moved slowly through the wind and he made no sound.
"Vincent?! Is that you?"
Cid shot himself up straight and used his spear to regain his balance above the ground. Vincent spoke slowly without a care it seemed.
"There is urgent business I must attend to, I just happened to stumble upon your misfortunate encounter, you're nothing more to me now,"
"Now wait a damn second! What do you mean I'm not worth anything to you!? Don't you remember me?"
Vincent stayed silent and started to walk away without a word and Cid willed with anger raged forward at him as well.
"Vincent you're going to listen to me now!"
Cid grabbed his shoulder to stop him and Vincent wretched it away from his grasp.
"Vincent! What the hell is wrong with you!? Have you cracked?!"
"No… I have… more important things right now,"
"Oh yeah?! Like what?! What could be more important then your friends dumb ass!?"
"Friends?" Vincent seemed to chuckle softly at this word and it aggravated Cid a lot.
"What the hell's so fucken funny?" Cid's anger in his voice made Vincent stop chuckling and then he started walking added behind him, "I have no friends,"
Cid shook his head in pity at him.
"What kind of person doesn't have any damn friends? I'll tell you what kind of person! A coward!"
Vincent stopped and turned to face Cid for the first time in awhile, anger and confusion glaring in his eyes He stood straight his mouth partly hidden from the cape's tied ends as he talked.
"Do you really want to know what's so important? Do you think, that I would even think about giving it to you?! If you don't leave me, I'll force you too, My friend,"
The last words got Cid's attention as a threat and Cid picked his Venus Gospel to his waist.
"Well then prepare to fight!"
Vincent pulled his gun as quick as lightning from his side and fired it. A huge barrier around Cid made the bullet completely bounced off of him. Cid stared in amazement as did Vincent and sudden blast of white light appeared around them swirling them to sky above, then it stopped and they levitated above the ground. Cid and Vincent looked below in fear as they saw the clouds glide beneath their feet.
"What the hell!? Vincent do you know what's going on?!"
Vincent just shook his head his face still locked in fright and a small voice came to them.
"Silly boys, you two must in fight, you could cause another war,"
The voice seemed familiar yet someone distance in the past.
"Who are you, damn it?! Why don't you show yourself?!" Cid screamed out wards into the beyond. A sudden gust of wind hit him and he realized he was falling… towards the ground, yet Vincent stayed upwards looking down at him in shock as he fell. Cid reached into his pocket and found his green material that contained Float in it and casted it as fast as he could but as soon as he did all time seemed to stop, soft giggling could be heard from the back and Vincent came flying past Cid gaining speed as he neared the plains below but he stopped just as quick and Cid fell once again followed by Vincent as he passed him up, They stopped instantly inches from the ground and then dropped softly to it. A woman appeared beside them in a bright pink dress with a red short in length jacket that was short sleeved. She chuckled at them as they stared at her in total daze.
"Aer- Aeris!? But- But- but…."
Cid stuttered at his words and she laughed at them, but she quickly stopped as another rumble filled the area making them all fall over landed straight on there backs un able to get up….
