Here it is. Chapter 35.

Chapter 35: Aging in the other world.

It was a long day. Cloud and I were recovering from our trips to the Lifestream.

Cloud: So you were collecting these Huge Materia.

Cait Sith: That's right. Two are left. One is in the Undersea Reactor at Junon.

Cloud: Well let's go then.

Cid: Who's going?

Cloud: Tifa and Cait Sith should come.

All: Cait Sith?

Cloud: He hasn't done much. He should come. Besides the rest of you should be tired from getting this stuff.

Tifa: yeah. Good point Cloud.

We all took the Highwind to Junon and everyone went to Upper Junon and those who weren't going went around town.

Yuffie: Wow. We haven't had time to ourselves in a loooooooooong time.

Perry: * sigh *

Yuffie: What's wrong?

Perry: What's today's date?

Yuffie: June 11. Why?

Perry: Today is my birthday.

Yuffie: You never told me when your birthday was.

Perry: Sorry. Didn't know if time was the same here.

Yuffie: How old are ya?

Perry: 17.

Yuffie: Older than me.

Perry: Only by one year Yuf.

Yuffie: Yuf?

Perry: I'm not one for nicknames.

Yuffie: That's okay.

Perry: It's kinda hard to celebrate somebody's birthday in a situation like this.

Yuffie: We can try.

Perry: Do you honestly think Cid, Barret, Red XIII, and Vincent would do this?

Yuffie: You're right. But later on I'll surprise you.

Perry: You don't have to.

Yuffie: I insist.

Perry: Suit yourself.

Yuffie: What do you wanna do now?

Perry: I dunno. All the guys went to that bar.

Yuffie: You wanna go to a bar?

Perry: I dunno. Better than nothing.

So the two of us walked to the local bar. Sure enough Barret and Cid were there. Vincent and Red XIII were making themselves scarce in the corner.

Barret: Didn't expect to see you two here.

Cid: yeah.

Perry: Just bored I guess.

Cid: Surprised you two aren't making out somewhere.

Yuffie: What was that?

Cid: It seems more and more teenagers are making out nowadays. That's kinda disturbing in my mind.

Yuffie: For your information we don't plan on doing that for awhile.

Awhile? Hehehehe

Barret: Hey, feel like having a little fun?

Perry: What kind of fun?

Cid: Drinking contest.

Perry: I'll pass.

Cid: What's wrong with ya?

Perry: Don't have much of a taste for alcohol.

Barret: C'mon you only live once.

Perry: Nah, I'm good.

I walked out of the place. Never liked drinking games. Somebody always died or something.

Yuffie: Hey, you seem kinda down today.

Perry: Just, my family isn't here to celebrate. Come to think of it. I wonder how they've taken my sudden disappearance.

Yuffie: I'd like to meet them someday.

Perry: They'd be happy to meet you too. Never brought a girl home before.

Yuffie: What should we do?

Perry: Dunno, wanna get a room and just "chill" there?

Yuffie: Sounds like fun.

She wrapped both her arms around one of mine and we walked down the large street.

Perry: hmmm

Yuffie: What's wrong?

Perry: Wasn't there a large cannon there?

Yuffie: Who knows?

Perry: There was. What happened to it?

Yuffie: Who cares?

Perry: You're right. We're all that matters.

Yuffie: You're so kind.

For once. This felt very "right". Although I've never been with a girl before. Especially one like Yuffie.

We eventually got to the inn and something was up.

Perry: The hell?

There was this odd looking kid holding the inn manager up by the neck. He was clad in gauntlets and armor on the bottom of his body. He had no shirt on and had cut marks and scars all over his body. He had a similar looking one on his face.

Perry: Not you!?

Yuffie: Who?

???: Nice to see you again faker!

It was my clone. I forgot about him. But we didn't cut him that badly.

Yuffie: I thought we beat you?

C Perry: Well you did. Sephiroth punished me dearly for my mistakes. Now I've come for revenge.

He let the manager down. Luckily he was just shaken up.

Yuffie: Don't fight here outside.

We ran outside and my clone made a sword appear from out of nowhere.

C Perry: My Jenova cells are evolving. My powers increase.

Perry: You're deluding yourself.

C Perry: Quiet! I am superior to you. Stronger, Faster, Smarter...

Perry: That doesn't make a person superior. It takes more than that. It takes heart!

Yuffie: Oh Perry.

Perry: Now let's settle this then. Faker!

C Perry: You dare call me the faker. You're the faker! Hell, not even good enough to be me.

Perry: Shut UP!

I unleashed Fire3 upon him.

C Perry: See you've learned quite a bit.

Perry: More than you'll ever know.

Yuffie: I can help too.

Perry: Be my guest Yuffie!

C Perry: Ain't that sweet?

Yuffie: Like you'd know?

She happened to have some Level 3 Bolt on hand.

C Perry: My swordmanship has inproved.

He dashed up to me and turning his foot he caught me off guard and flung me into the air.

C Perry: Demon Swipe!

Then struck me down to the ground. It hurt needless to say.

Yuffie: You okay?

Perry: Still in one piece.

C Perry: That was amazing. Didn't think you'd move after that move.

Yuffie: Anger of the Land!

She summoned Titan and he dealt some damage to the clone.

Perry: Odin!

Then I used Odin. It did some great damage.

C Perry: Enough! Jenova's Judgement!

Yuffie and I were taken to some other realm and Jenova was in the background. Then the realm destroyed itself.

Yuffie: Can't...go on(heave)

Perry: Takes(huff)it outta(wheeze)ya.

C Perry: Don't feel like resisting. Makes my job much better.

Perry: But you forget something?

C Perry: What?

Perry: Limit Break!

C Perry: OH SHI...

Before he can finish he's blasted by Blasting Zone2. Yuffie too has her limit and she used Gauntlet. The beam of light strikes the clone hard and he plummets to the ground.

C Perry: Sephiroth...I've failed you again!

He just fell dead. Not like Yuffie and I cared about him.

Perry: Tired?

Yuffie: Hell yes I am.

Perry: Let's try to struggle over to the inn.

We eventually made it and the inn manager was kind enough to give us a free room for saving his life.

Yuffie: Just so tired. Do you mind if I just sleep?

Perry: Go right ahead. I'll join you.

I took my shirt off and my boots. Left my sword on top of them. Upon looking up I noticed Yuffie was doing the same.

Perry: uh...

She had already taken off her pants and was standing there in her red underwear but her green shirt was still on. Her armor and stuff was off. She kinda looked at me with a seductive look.

Perry: oh, sorry.

Yuffie: I don't mind you looking. I mean, it's you after all.

Perry: * blushes *

Yuffie: Never saw you blush before.

I was still tired so I just made my way to the large bed and died there.

Yuffie: That clone of yours took a lot out of us.

Perry: Tell me about it.

I hadn't noticed that she was clad in only red underwear and red bra. But I was too tired to care.

Yuffie: Mind if I join you?

She found a spot right next to me. But didn't seem to like it.

Yuffie: Mind?

Perry: Mind what?

She moved herself on top of me. Again, too tired to care.

Yuffie: That's better.

Perry: Comfy?

Yuffie: Yea...Yuffie go night-night now.

She feel asleep immediately. Never knew how people could do that.

Perry: Sweet dreams.

She felt increadible warm. I always liked that about girls. They gave off that feeling of safety and happiness.

Perry: Never noticed how beautiful Yuffie is.

She was very beautiful indeed. I also noticed she was slightly different from what the game depicts her. She was slightly taller, not as thin, and her face was perfect, her features were different too.

Perry: Time to conk out.

I too feel into dream land.

I woke up and found out that it was still my birthday. What a day? First I'm bored as hell, then we fight my clone again, well being with Yuffie was worth all the troubles in the world.

Yuffie: You up?

Perry: yeah.

Yuffie: Well I was just talking with everyone. They want to make your day special.

Perry: They don't have too.

Yuffie: They want too. Ever since Tifa got back all she could think of was what to get.

Perry: Too kind.

Yuffie: Even Cloud was looking for stuff.

Perry: but I only want one present.

Yuffie: Aeris?

Perry: Yea.

Yuffie: You must care about her a lot.

Perry: I really love sis.

Yuffie: Well come downstairs. Everyone is waiting.

We made our way downstairs. Everyone was there. I was so embarrassed.

Tifa: Hiya!

Barret: Happy birthday newcomer!

Perry: You didn't have to.

Cloud: It wasn't that bad.

Perry: Well let's get this overwith.

After a heaping helping of humiliation from them singing happy birthday they finally gave me stuff. Oh well, can't complain there.

Tifa: Here.

Perry: You first?

Tifa: Yup.

Well everyone got me such nice things. From rare X-Potions(odd gifts), to All Materia(stranger) although Cid got me the best gift so far.

Perry: A new sword. Bout time!

Cid: Told you he'd like it!

Engraved on it was the name "Stripper".

Perry: Stripper?

Cid: Guy said it's good for killing large things. You know. Strip em' of their life or some &*^$ed up &*$%.

Tifa: It's quite the broadsword.

To make a joke I touched Tifa with it.

Tifa: What was that for?

Perry: It didn't work.

We all got a kick out of that one. Then Tifa gave me another gift.

Tifa: I've noticed you could use some new clothes.

She got out a box with some new gear for me.

It was a new white shirt(sleeveless of course), blue shorts that were loose, and a new set of boots.

Perry: Wow. Thanks Tifa.

I went into another room and came out in them. I looked great.

Perry: Only one person to go.

Yuffie: This one took me forever to find.

It was a very small box. Inside was a small pink orb. Materia.

Perry: What one is this?

Yuffie: Under Water.

Perry: Wait a minute...

Yuffie: One of the materia needed to bring Aeris back.

Tifa: How'd you find that?

Yuffie: I was looking in town earlier today and someguy had it. I had to "pursuade" him to give it up.

Perry: Who cares? One step closer to sis.

We all seemed to enjoy ourselves and then we set out to Rocket Town. Where the final Huge Materia was.
