Chapter 34: Facing My Reality
During the trip during the night all I could think about was Aeris saying I'd be attacked by WEAPON. But what could that mean?
Red XIII: Can't sleep, can you?
Perry: Naw. Just worried you know.
Red XIII: I'm sure they'll be fine.
For now. But Ultima Weapon would attack soon. Maybe that was the warning. He is formidable in the game.
We landed outside of Mideel and walked through the jungle into the town.
Perry: Nothings changed.
Barret: Tifa's probably glued to Cloud.
Cid: Is that so wrong?
Barret: Guess not.
We walked up to the clinic.
Doctor: I see your back. Your friend hasn't left his side since.
He was right. Tifa was sleeping on the floor holding Cloud's hand. Must not have slept in awhile.
Yuffie: Should we wake her?
Then the ground began to rumble.
Cloud: The...re...coming!
Cid: What'd ya say Cloud?
Cid, Barret, and I went outside and then we saw Ultima Weapon flying around.
Barret: Damn that!
Cid: Lifestream is going nuts!
Perry: What do we do?
Cid: Hey come down here you *&(*($^%&*
The thing roared and came down at us.
Barret: Be ready!
The thing wasted no time. It clawed at Barret, who responded with some heavy duty Ungr Max!
Perry: Ultima!
Nothing.
Perry: Forgot. Level 2!
Cid: Little help kid!
Perry: Fire3!
It leveled up again on the train. My Revive was close to Life2 too.
The beast was stunned.
Perry: Odin come forth!
I summoned Odin and using his lance he did some damage to Ultima. Not enough though.
Then its chest glowed that eerie blue and it unleashed an Ultima Beam on me. I couldn't feel my body. I fell backwards into blackness.
Perry: sis...was this what you were telling me?
Then I didn't know what happened but I then felt some sort of spirited energy around me. I opened my eyes and all I saw was a bunch of green.
Perry: Lifestream!
Aeris: Yes. I'm afraid this is what I warned you about.
Perry: Did I die?
Aeris: No. You're barely alive but your subconcious mind won't allow to return until you...resolve something.
Perry: What?
Aeris: You know what I mean? Think back to when you first got here.
Perry: Home? I'm here to think of my home world?
Aeris: I'm afraid so.
Perry: What's there to face? I hate that place.
Aeris: I think you liked it more than you let yourself to believe.
Perry: How do I find that out?
Then we appeared in something resembling Cloud's hub area here.
Perry: What's this? Who are all these people?
Aeris: Recongnize them?
Perry: They look like me. When I was younger.
Aeris: That's correct. They can show you the secrets of your past.
Perry: Where do we start sis?
Aeris: That one up there.
We both walked up to a small one.
Younger Perry: Ready?
Perry: I guess so.
Then the area changed to a playground. One I knew.
Perry: I used to play here all the time.
Y Perry: Yea. I loved it here. So many friends.
Perry: Yea. Those days came to an end though.
Y Perry: But, don't act like you never enjoyed it here.
Perry: Well I did. I mean I was friends with like everyone.
Y Perry: But friends with one person in particular.
Perry: But I don't remember her...
Then another little girl appeared next to the younger me near the monkey bars.
Girl: Perry, everyone says your so good at the monkey bars.
Y Perry: I know! They're awesome. Wanna see me on them?
Girl: Sure.
She stood back and the younger me climb across the set of twenty in a matter of only five seconds.
Aeris: Who is she anyway?
Perry: Michelle Ariel. She was one of my first friends. But this was before I even liked girls.
Aeris: But she was special to you, right?
Perry: She was. But I kinda forgot about her.
Michelle: You never forgot about me. You just never wanted to remember.
Perry: Why would I do that?
Then we were back in the central area again.
Perry: That brought back some happy memories.
Aeris: We're not done yet.
We found another younger me but a little older than the last one.
Perry: This place. It's my elementary school.
Y Perry: And another special person is here.
Perry: But that could only be...
A girl around his age appeared with him. They held hands and began walking together.
Aeris: How about her?
Perry: Christina Gonzolas. She could be considered my first girlfriend.
Aeris: Oh?
Perry: Yeah. We used to go under that jungle gym over there and kiss one another on the cheek. The boys all made fun of us but I always told her...
Y Perry: Who cares what they think? I mean all that matters is what we think about one another.
Christina: Yeah.
Perry: I never really felt such an attraction towards a girl like that for quite awhile. I loved her. But then my family had to move away. I never heard about her again. I was still sad. Still kinda am too. But I thought I was supposed to realize something here sis. I'm just getting depressed.
Aeris: It's almost clear. Don't worry. I'll stick with you.
Only one more place left to go. High School!
Aeris: This shouldn't be a younger version of yourself. It should be you this time.
Perry: Maybe. But what am I gonna do? This is just an empty hallway with one room.
Aeris: In the room?
I opened the door and a bunch of people I knew were there. They had one thing in common.
Perry: I've liked everyone of these people.
Aeris: That's a lot.
Perry: But none liked me back.
Aeris: You sure?
Perry: They never expressed it.
Aeris: Maybe they did?
Perry: That's a lie.
Aeris: Well did you like any of these girls more than any other?
Perry: Well maybe Sarah, or...what's that got to do with anything?
Aeris: They did care for you Perry. You just always painted the picture you were a sad and lonely guy who would never be loved just to get pity.
Perry: But I was.
Aeris: But not to the degree you said you were.
Perry: OH. You're right sis! I was better off.
I began to feel myself cry again. Twice in a row this week!
Aeris: It's okay. The Planet only wanted you to realize that you loved your home and ours as well.
Perry: I'm...sorry I did this...I was so selfish!
Aeris just walked up to me and hugged me comforting me.
Aeris: It's okay. We don't blame you. But you should tell everyone.
Perry: I will sis. I will.
Aeris: Don't cry. It looks bad seeing you big brother cry.
Perry: I'm no big brother.
Aeris: Come on. We have a relationship like that.
Perry: Yeah.
Aeris: Like that girl Meredith.
Perry: How'd you?
Aeris: I know many things brother. Just be careful. Your returning now.
Perry: Bye sis! I will find a way to bring you back to life!
Aeris: Take your time.
Perry: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
The trip back was quite different. But when I woke up I was in a hospital bed with everyone sitting there.
Perry: uh...
Yuffie: You're back.
She couldn't help but shower me with affection.
Yuffie: You big meanie! Don't do that again.
She hit me in the face. That hurt.
Perry: Sorry about that.
Cloud: Where were you?
Perry: Lifestream.
Tifa: You were there too?
Perry: Yes. Aeris was there too.
Cloud: Aeris.
Perry: She made me realize something.
Red XIII: Maybe this is best to be told on the airship.
Barret: Don't go scaring us like that kid.
Cid: Yeah. You're not getting out of this that easy.
We all made our way back to the Highwind and in the Operation Room I told them everything as did Cloud.
Perry: So, I was really happy with my home. I was only deluding myself about my sadness. So please forgive me everyone. Especially you Yuffie. I mean you probably don't want to be my girlfriend anymore because of the fact I lied.
Yuffie: Of course not! You won't ditch me that easy. I liked you for the guy I know here. I could care less about how you felt or did years ago.
Perry: Oh thanks everyone.
Cloud: I mean it's like you always say Barret.
Barret: Oh yeah.
Everyone: There ain't no getting of this train we're!
Cloud: So let's go everyone!
We all ran full speed to the main deck. Ready for our next challenge!
