(This will be in Aries's pov.)

Half of my flowers ruined. All thanks to that raven haired kid in the red and white hat. The blond had just crushed five of my flower's, but the kid had crushed at least twenty five of them. I had moved the kid away from my flower garden and tried to move the blond haired man away but he was to heavy. As I looked at the man who was about my age I began to reconize him. He was the man who bought a flower from me. I then noticed that he was mumbleing about something. He was asking who someone was and also said something that I couldnt make out. I then saw that his friend was waking up. "Oh, he moved." Then I also saw that the blond was waking also.

"Shit my head hurts" The kid grunted.He then got up and looked at the sroundings. When he saw me he walked over and asked for my name. At first I didn't now wether to tell him or not. I was still a little mad about the flowers, but after I looked into his eyes I knew he wasn't going to hurt me. After telling him my name he told me his name. I never heard of the name Ash before. I thought that was the name of tree not a person but I guess you can never just assume something, even if you are a Cetra.

"My name is Cloud" the blond said. Cloud was rather muscular and had a huge sword straped to his back. He wore a purple jump suit. The ones SOLDIER's wear. He had a iron bangle on his right wrist and his hair was sticking out at odd places and at first I thought it was because it was messed up but after looking closer you could see he intentionally put it like that. His eyes glowed a light blue, the mark of SOLDIER. He was very handsom also.

Ash was around fifteen. He wasn't as muscular as Cloud. At his side a katana was in its sheath and was dangling from his belt. On his belt was a red and white ball of some kind. It was straped into one of six holders which I guess was suppose to be for more of them. He wore a blue sleeveless jacket and a black t-shirt under it. He also wore blue jeans and had black fingerless gloves. On his head he had a red and white hat with a symbol on the front. On his left wrist was a bronze bangle.His eyes were a normal shade of blue.

"Where are we" Cloud asked looking around at the church.

"Your in a church in the sector 5 slums. You suddenly fell on top of me. You guys really gave me a scare." I replied.

"We came crashing down" Ash asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"The roof and the flower bed must have broken your fall." She said."Your really lucky."

Ash then looked at the flowers. When he noticed that they were messed up. "Sorry about ruining them" he apoligized.

"Some might not grow very well but the flowers here are quite resilient because this is a sacred place." I told him. "They say you can't grow grass and flowers in Midgar.But for some reason, the flowers have no trouble blooming here. I love it here." I then kneeled down next to the flowers and started to tend to them. I couldn't believe it when Ash kneeled down also and helped me. "Where did you learn to grow flowers. Hardly anyone in Midgar have these skills." I told him.

"I'm not from here. I'm not even from this world." he replied. I had a really confused look on my face and he must have seen it cause he started telling me his story.

"Interesting." was all I could say.

"I still can't believe it either." He said."My mom showed me how to grow plants. She had this huge garden.I really miss her." After finishing that senence he seemed to disconect from the rest of the world. He stopped gardening and he was obviously in deep thought(thats wierd). I decided to drop the subject. I turned towards Cloud.

".....So, we meet again.Don't you remember me?" I asked.

"Yeah I remember. You were selling flowers." Cloud replied. When he told me that I got really happy.

"Oh, I'm so happy! Thanks for buying my flowers." I said with a smile on my face."Hey do you have any materia?"I asked.

"Me and Ash have some. You can get almost anything down here in the slums. Ash got his materia when he triped over them." He replied.

"But mine is special.Its good for absolutly nothing." I told him.

"......Good for nothing? I thought materias use was for in battle." Ash said coming out of what looked like a trance." Maybe she doesn't know how to use it."

"No,I do. It just doesn't do anything." She replied.I then looked skyward."I feel safe just having it around.It was my mother's...."

"Say I feel like talking.Do you feel up to it?" I said with a grin on my face."After all, here we are meeting again,right?"

"Got nothing to talk about" He replied. I was really disappointed. He was really cute and he didn't have a wedding ring on.I was hoping that he was single but he didn't seem interested in me. Maybe he did have a girlfriend.

"....oh, I see." She then went back to tending her flowers."Just a little longer. I work as a flower girl in the slums. What do you do?"

"I do alittle bit of everything."He replied.

"Oh.... a jack of all trades." I said

"Yeah I do whatever's needed."

(this part is in no ones pov

Suddenly they heard footsteps echoing near the entrance. There was a man in a blue suit. He had dark red ahir that was put into a ponytail and that spiked out slightly in the front. He had something that looked like a night stick attached to his belt. He had green mako eyes that seemed to be focused on Aries.

Cloud and Ash were going to confront the man but Aries told them to ignore him. They walked back to aries but Ash kept on glaring at the man. Aries then steped back behind Cloud.

"Say, Cloud. Have you ever been a bodyguard?" She asked him."You DO do everything, right?" Cloud then tried to smooth his hair but he didnt really do much to it.

"Yeah thats right." he said.

"Then get me out of here.Take me home!" She begged.

"Ok, I'll do it... but it'll cost you." He replied.

"Well lets see...... how about if I go out with you once?" She replied.

At hearing that cloud refused that. He loved Tifa and he wasn't going to hurt after admitting it to her.

"How about a dozen flowers? Thats the best I can do." She said. Cloud then made an affirmative nod. He new Tifa would love them.

"And I'll do it for free" Ash said and then did a peace sign. Both of the men looked at the person and they both walked towards him.

"I don't know who you are but...." Cloud said but was interupted.

"You don't know me.....?" The red haired man said.

Cloud then walked a little closer to him.

"Oh yeah..... I know you. That uniform...." Cloud replied. Suddenly three shinra guards run in.

"...... Hey, sis, this ones a little weird." The turk replied.

"Shut up you Shinra spy!" Cloud shouted.

"He is working for Shinra!" Ash yelled. He was in this position because of them and now he hated them. He lunged forward katana drawn ready to strike. He went straight for the head and almost made it but the turk took out the night stick and blocked the sword. When the katana hit the weapon the turk pushed a button and a jolt of electricity through it to Ash's body. Ash was used to electricity but it still hurt. When the turk took his thumb off the button and then hit Ash in the stomach. He then pushed him towards Cloud and Aries. They helped him get up and Ash dusted himself off.

"Second lesson in fighting, never attack in anger.Keep your head clear." Cloud whispered. Ash nodded his head.

"Reno! Want them taken out" One of the guards asked the turk now known as Reno.

"I haven't decided yet. The kids a pushover. The other one looks more dangerous though." Reno replied.

"Dont fight here. You'll ruin the flowers" The three run towards the back of the church. "The exit is back here." Aries told them. They all ran into the back.

(this will be in in Ashes pov)

I could not help but wonder what the hell this place was for. It was huge and there was something that looked like a missle in it. We climbed up the step heading towards a hole in the roof. Soon we found ourselves in front of a gap that was four feet across. I knew me and Cloud could make it but I did not know if Aries could. Cloud had jumped and it was time for Aries. She tried to jump but before she could get her feet off of the ground we heard a voice.

"The Ancient is getting away! Attack! Attack! Attack!" Reno yelled. The guards fired at her but none hit her. She was terrified and she rolled down he missle. They may have missed Aries but they had hit my leg and I also fell. I fell in a different place.

"Get them!" Reno ordered. The guards jumped down. One landed near Aries and the other two near me.

"Cloud, HELP!" Aries yelled. Cloud ran up to the rafters and found some barrels. He tried to push one barrel off but it missed.

"Damn" He swore. Aries was avoiding the attacks with difficulty. Finnaly cloud got the right barrel and it hit the guard. Aries then ran up the stairs and made it to Cloud. Now all they could was watch me. None of the barrels would help me from where I was.

"I relised the trouble I was in. Two guards with guns both trying to kill me. Both began to shoot at me. I jumped up and escaped from the line fire. I worked my way through the bullets towards the guards. When I made it near them I slashed a part of the guns hoping that they would stop working. What I thought will happen was confirmed when sparks started coming from thier guns. I grinned at the sight of that, but I got confused when I saw that they was smiling also.

"You dont think were dumb enough to use only guns." They then tossed thier guns aside and took out swords. They were normal looking swords. They were around 3 feet long and were double edged. They soon lunged at me aiming for what might have been my throat. I blocked one and kicked the other in the stomach. When the one I hit in the stomach doubled over I kneed him in the face. I then blocked the others next attack. I then kicked his hand sending his sword flying into the wall. I looked behind me and saw that the other was getting up. I stoped him by stabbing him through the side. The other was heading towards his sword. He did not make it. I kicked him in the back and then sliced his back. When I looked around I saw that both were unconcious and was about to die. When I was going to slice Reno's head off I wasn't thinking right. I dug through my pockets and took out a couple of potions. I used them on the guards and hoped that they would survive.

I looked up and saw Reno looking down at me in a confused way. I knew he was wondering how I beat them. He thought I was weak due to when I attacked him. Now he knew better. He then got his normal cocky look on his face again. He ran his fingers through his hair and walked out. I then ran up towards the top and met up with the others. Both began to clap. I guess I did better then I thought. Soon we made it out and began to rest on the roof.

Aries soon began to laugh. "They're looking for me again" She said.

"You mean its not the first time they've been after you?" I asked.

"Yeah." She replied.

"They're the Turks. they are an organization in Shinra. They scout for possible canidates for SOLDIER." Cloud said.

"This violently? I thought they were kidnapping someone." Aries replied.

"They also do a lot of dirty stuff to. Murder,spying... you know." he said.

"Who cares. Lets just get out of here before they come after us." Ash said.

"Your right." Cloud agreed. They then got up and started to jump across the junk.
