Chapter two - All is not what it seems
Vincent awoke. He was entangled in wires connected to a large machine. Slowly he tried to move an arm, but failed. He sighed and looked up, and almost fainted in shock. Sitting pondering over a machine at the far end of the room in a white coat was. . .
"Hojo. . ." Vincent murmured. Hojo turned around.
"Hee-hee, glad to see you remember. One less introduction. However, I am not quite sure whether you have met my little puppet. Eryll, come!"
Eryll slowly stepped forwards, her eyes glistened with something Vincent could not tell. Malice? Hate? Sorrow? Vincent couldn't tell. It was all that he could do not to faint with shock. He had trusted this girl. Did everyone always have to betray him?
"Eryll." Hojo's voice broke into Vincent's thoughts. "Come, bring this hmmm, 'being' to the chambers." With that he walked out the door. Chambers?!
Eryll walked slowly upto Vincent and entangled him from the wires. Numb, Vincent stood there as her deft fingers unfastened all the clips. She stepped backwards and headed after Hojo. Slowly Vincent followed.
"Why Eryll? Why did you deceive me?" The question came out of Vincent's mouth before he knew anything about it.
Eryll turned. "Aeti ma teo mon hacice, kishi ta ce emintii man posu." Slowly she smiled. "It means ' Neither friend nor foe am I to you, but trust me, I am your only hope." , she hesitated.
"And", Vincent prompted.
"That's it. But don't expect your friends to help you out here. You're alone now. Lost in a world of hate and greed. You are the only one who can save yourself." With that she walked away.
What did she mean? he thought, before slowly following.

"Marlene, you be a good girl while Daddy's gone won't you" Barrett sighed. "Alright, let's go."
Having managed to gather most of the team who had helped defeat meteor, they were about to go on a Tifa hunt.
"Everyone here?" Cid asked.
"Red couldn't come, and Vincent was nowhere to be found" Cloud stated.
"Hmm, never understood that guy anyway. Well, c'mon." Barrett led them out into the streets.
After searching for ages, the group eventually came to a large building, right on the edge of the mountains.
"Never seen that before." Cid commented.
"Lets go in!" Yuffie bounced up the steps, leading to the door.
"It's been so long welcome." A girl with glowing red eyes approached.
"Tifa . . ?!" She smiled.
"Once I was called by such a name, but now - now is what matters." Her fingers snapped and the group floated into the air. "Come with me then - like you have a choice" She laughed, a horrid, evil laugh that filled the dark sky.
