Chapter 33 time. Hope it satisfies.
Chapter 33: When Its No Longer a Game to Me
We were all getting used to the Highwind. Yuffie wasn't. Man, how much food can she pack in her?
Perry: Maybe you should rest somewhere.
Yuffie: How...about...here?
She was just very exhausted. She just feel backwards into my arms.
Perry: Poor girl.
I took her to the Operations Room and set her in the corner to rest.
Perry: She looks peaceful. Wonder what everyone else is doing?
I went up to the main deck and everyone was busy.
Perry: Man, this place is huge.
Cid: Still impressed by my ship I see.
Perry: It is much different than I would have imagined.
Red XIII: Where do you suppose we go now?
Perry: Mideel. Cloud is there.
Tifa: Cloud! Really?
She ran up and grabbed my hands and gave me a deep look of concern.
Perry: Yes, but Tifa, you don't want to see him like this.
Tifa: I don't care. If you really care about me than we'll go.
Perry: Just don't get mad at me. Cid can we go?
Cid: Sure thing. Where is this Mideel anyway?
Perry: Just north of the Temple of the Ancients, or East of Condor Fort.
Cid: Got it! We'll be there in a flash.
We all headed to Mideel but I didn't want Tifa to see Cloud.
Tifa: Where is he?
Perry: The clinic. But...
Too late she was already inside.
Yuffie: What's so bad?
Perry: Cloud. He's in terrible shape.
We all went inside to see Tifa weeping over Cloud. Who was lying in a wheelchair. He had a look saying he didn't have an idea what was happening.
Tifa: Cloud? Say something...it's me. Tifa! Cloud!
Perry: Tifa. I'm sorry. I didn't want this to happen.
I placed my hand on her shoulder and she just turned around with eyes pull of tears. I knelt down in front of her and she just buried herself in my shoulder. She was just crying and crying. And I've cried a lot in my life, but this was the first time I was just balling. Just seeing Tifa like this was just so depressing. If she wasn't happy then what was the point in happiness.
Perry: I'm so sorry Tifa. Don't be mad.
Tifa: It's okay. Don't blame yourself.
We just sat there hugging and crying on one another.
Tifa: Will he...be like this forever?
Perry: No. He will recover in time.
Tifa: But, just seeing him is...
Perry: Shhh. Don't say anymore. I think you know what you want to do.
Tifa: Everyone(sniff).
Barret: Tifa, calm down a bit.
Vincent: Take your time with your words.
Tifa: I want to stay with Cloud. I don't care what happens. Just what matters is Cloud.
Yuffie: That's so touching. You should stay with him.
Perry: It'll all work out Tifa.
Tifa: Thank you everyone.
Doctor: If you'll excuse me.
Cid: What is it?
Doctor: Your friend has Mako poisoning. A very advanced case. So much Mako introduced into his system at once.
Barret: Does that mean, he's a goner?
Doctor: Only time will tell. After all, the light of hope can be found anywhere.
Cid: What should we do now?
Red XIII: Maybe we should get back to the ship.
We all began to walk back to Highwind.
Yuffie: Man, hate to see Tifa like this.
Perry: Me too.
Yuffie: I'm so jealous of her sometimes. I mean she's got that spirit and she's usually so together.
Perry: Don't change. You should be yourself. That's why I like you so much Yuffie.
Yuffie: Yeah, maybe I'll be more like Tifa in a couple years.
Perry(under his breath): And a few visits to the plastic surgeon.
Yuffie: What?
Perry: Nothing. Say, if I were in Cloud's position, would you stay with me like Tifa is for Cloud?
Yuffie: Of course.
Perry: Thanks Yuffie.
We stopped and kissed one another, and then walked on holding onto one another.
Back on board the Highwind Cait Sith told us about the plan for the Huge Materia.
Cait Sith: It appears that Shinra will use this Huge Materia to blast Meteor.
Perry: But it won't work.
Red XIII: It isn't wise to use Materia for such things.
Barret: But what are we gonna do?
Cait Sith: They plan to transfer two from Condor Fort and Corel.
Barret: Coral! The &$*% more can they do to Corel?
Vincent: We must stop this.
Cait Sith: We need to split up. That way we can cover more ground.
Barret: I'll go to Corel! Those Shinra are gonna get their asses kicked.
Perry: I'll come to.
Vincent: I'll lead the way into Condor Fort.
Red XIII: I'll accompany you.
Cid: Guess I'll have to be "leader" for Corel.
Perry: What's wrong with that?
Cid: Pain in the ass!
Perry: But you lead this ship.
Cid: It's still a pain in my ass.
Yuffie: I'll go to Condor Fort.
Vincent: So it's Yuffie, Red XIII, and I going to Condor. Perry, Barret, and Cid to Corel.
Perry: Sounds good.
Cid: I'll drop you off at Condor first.
Yuffie: Take care honey.
Perry: Mushy stuff later.
Yuffie: Okay.
Perry: Stay in touch.
Eventually we reached Corel and were dropped at the reactor.
Cid: Soldiers over there.
Barret: Only two.
Perry: Shouldn't be much trouble.
Cid: Let's attack then.
Barret laid down cover fire for Cid and I. Cid stabbed one guard through the chest and I cut the other in half.
Cid: No challenge.
Perry: Too easy.
Then we all heard a train start behind us.
Barret: The Materia must be on the train.
Cid: Hey, we should follow.
Perry: How?
Cid: Know who I am? I'm Cid, that's who the hell I am!
We followed him inside and he got a train.
Barret: Didn't think you could drive this thing.
Cid: Don't ask me.
Barret: What?
Cid: Shouldn't be too hard. Two levers. If I alternate them then we gain speed.
Perry: Let's get to it!
We caught up and endured the battles on the train until the engine.
Perry: Stop this crazy thing!
Cid: Maybe if I move them together I can slow down.
He moved them both up.
Barret: Uh...we're going faster old man!
Cid: Maybe down.
Perry: Gaining speed. Stop!
Cid: &*&$^$(#^*%&
He hit some switch and we stopped right in front of Corel.
Barret: That was too close.
Cid: Lucky I'm here.
We took the Huge Materia and the villagers greeted us.
Villager: Barret! You did this?
Barret: Yeah.
Villager: Maybe you're not such a bad guy.
Barret: Yeah!
Villager: Hey! We're miners! We'll dig a hole and hide from that Meteor!
Cid: Love that spirit!
Perry: Oh, someone's calling.
I picked up the PHS.
Yuffie: Hiya, Perry!
Perry: Hey, cutie!
Yuffie: We're all done here. So pick us up when you can.
Perry: You sound like you're looking forward to the airship!
Yuffie: Don't remind me. Makes me sick already.
Perry: Well I'll see you then.
Cid: What is it?
Perry: They're all done. They expect to be picked up soon.
Barret: Might as well get going.
Villager: Barret, before you go we'd like to give you all something.
Kid: I found this shiny rock in the well.
Barret: I can't take this. Newcomer, you want it?
Perry: Why give it to me?
Barret: I dunno.
Perry: If you really want me to, then I guess I can't refuse.
I took the rock. Ultima Materia. I felt very powerful with it.
Barret: Thanks for your support.
Villager: And this.
Barret: Catastrophe!
Perry: You're last Limit Break!
Villager: Promise to get rid of that Meteor.
Barret: You bet I will!
Cid: Let's stop back at Mideel after we get the others. I mean, I'm worried about Tifa. She just broke down.
Perry: You're right. I'm worried about her too.
We all stopped in the Highwind and headed back to Mideel.
Perry: I don't want to see Tifa. I mean, it was hard the first time.
Then I heard some voice in my head.
???: You still have feelings for her don't you?
Perry: What? Wait!
???: You got it.
Perry: Aeris!
Aeris: The one and only!
Perry: How are you talking to me?
Aeris: Well being in the Lifestream does have benefits. But, I came to warn you! A WEAPON will be attack you soon. Perry: We'll be ready.
Aeris: Just be careful.
Perry: Don't worry sis.
Aeris: You haven't found the Materia yet.
Perry: No. I don't know where to look.
Aeris: You'll find out.
Perry: You gonna talk to my head anytime soon?
Aeris: I'd like to but the Planet used a lot of energy to allow me to talk to you.
Perry: Well take care sis.
Yuffie: Who are you talking to?
Perry: Oh, nobody!
Yuffie: Man, this isn't the best ride ever.
Perry: Just rest until then.
Hope you all like this addition.
