Chapter 3- The Return of Sephiroth
Cloud's back leaned against the railing of the cargo ship and he folded his arms across his chest as his mako-blue eyes scanned across the deck, searching for the rest of the members of AVALANCHE. So far he had found Red; who was on the upper deck and trying very hard to walk on two legs; Aeris down by the cargo room, Yuffie, who was also in the same room as Aeris, uhhh, throwing up near the crates, and Tifa on the main deck on the lookout post.
Then his eyes rested on the newly joined member across from him who was currently in a sailor suit that she found. What was her name again? Oh yeah, it was Usagi, or Bunny as Yuffie translated. It suited her. In Cloud's opinion, the young girl was like Aeris, fun-loving, naive, bubbly, but most of all innocent. But that was just something about her that seemed to make her seem more special and precious than the older woman. Probably even more than Aeris being an Ancient.
'Where the Hell is Barret at?' Cloud thought and he set out to look for the man when a voice from the sailor a few feet away from him stopped him.
"Hey! What's wrong kid? You got no pep!" the sailor exclaimed. "A seaman's gotta have umph!"
Cloud stopped and turned to look at the sailor.
"I'm tired...." Cloud replied. He really was since he was up all last night wondering if the general was alive or not.
"I got just the perfect thing! 'Invisible Alpha'-- a super drink for seaman! Just one'll rejuvenate you! Only 250 gil!" He said and held out the drink.
"I'll take it." Cloud said after thinking for a while.
"Thanks! This is a necessity for a sailor. This is a must item for a sailor! Ha, ha, ha!" The sailor said and handed Cloud the can.
Cloud grabbed the item and drank its contents in one gulp and threw the empty can away. Immediately his HP/MP was restored and continued his search for Barret.
Luck was on his side when he found the burly man peering over a bay window that showed Rufus and Heiddegger that was near the captain's lodge. It seemed obvious that they were discussing over some trivial manners.
"Look, Cloud. It's Rufus and Heidegger. They're this close but we can't do a thing to 'em..."
Cloud, too, peered into the window and spied on them. He saw Rufus say something and saw that round man laugh.
"Ummmmmm.... Gmmmmmm.... How can he...... Goin' off laughin' like that? Because of him, Biggs...... Wedge...... Jessie......! Gggggggh... Ggggh......! Ggggggggghhh!!" Barret roared in anger and walked away from the window, shaking his fist in the air.
"God!! I can't take it anymore! I'm gonna settle thing's here and now..." He said and pointed his gun-arm at Rufus when suddenly flashing red lights and the alarm went off.
'Emergency alert! Reports of a suspicious character found! Those not on detail, search the ship. Report when found! I repeat. Suspicious character found onboard! Those not on detail, search the ship. Report when found.'
A look of horror spread across both Barret's and Cloud's face at the news.
"Damn, did they find us? Hey, that don't seem like us. Do they mean... Tifa and the others!?" He exclaimed wide-eyes at the thought of the others getting captured and turned towards Cloud who was also wide-eyed. "Get off your spikey butt and let's go, Cloud!"
As soon as Barret said that, the both ran towards the main deck and saw that the rest of the group was gathering there.
"Everyone all right!?/ You all right!?" Both Barret and Tifa exclaimed at the same time.
"Huh?" Aeris said, confused.
"Everyone's here...right?" Tifa asked the group. She had a funny feeling that something was going to happen today.
"Hey, wait! You don't think that the suspicious character... " Realization came on Cloud's face and he nearly spat out the next word that came from his mouth.
"Sephiroth!"
"Really!?" Tifa exclaimed.
Barret growled. "How the Hell am I suppose to know!?"
"....Let's go find out." Cloud said calmly even though he was anything but calm.
"It's the most logical thing to do. Then, who's going to go?" Red asked their leader and he crossed his arms across his chest and bowed his head in deep thought.
"Yuffie-chan, do you know what's going on?" Usagi whispered to the seasick girl, looking extremely nervous. Ever since she set aboard the ship her senshi senses kicked in and Usagi could only pay attention to that, wondering when the evil thingy onboard will attack.
"Ugh...something about Sephiroth......Gawd! Why in the name of Leviathan did we--" when the boat gave sudden lurch against the waves and Yuffie's face became a nice pale green color. She quickly ran over to the edge and threw up whatever was left of her lunch. They both looked up when they heard Cloud's voice.
"Aeris, Tifa and I will check things out at the bottom floor. The rest of you stay here. If we don't come back then I want you to leave without us." Cloud said and shifted to 'leader mode'.
"Nuh uh, there's no way we going without you guys. We're all on the same train here and there ain't no getting offa this train we're on." Barret said and crossed his arms across his chest with a look that said 'don't argue with me or else'.
"Fine then, but if get caught then I want the rest of you to escape and find some way to rescue us, got it?" Cloud said then softly murmured Sephiroth's name and remembered all the horrors that the great general had done in the past. The threesome moved out right after they checked their slots for materia and exchanged a few in place of the ones they already had in their weapons and armor.
'Well, maybe I should check this place out a little.' Usagi thought. She checked the whole dock until she came to the captains quarters. Curiosity got the best of her when she heard punching noises. Looking through the window, Usagi saw a fat man in an ugly green suit lose his temper about something and he started to abuse a couple of sailors that were in there. They looked like they were scared to shit as the man went on his rampage. Usagi gulped.
'I think that I should get out of here before I'm discovered.' Usagi thought. As soon as she turned around Usagi face meet someone's chest.
"Itai..." Usagi said and she rubbed her nose when she backed up from the person.
"Who are you and what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be working somewhere?" the person said in annoyance.
Usagi looked up and saw a strawberry blonde hair man with intense blue eyes that hardened when he saw Usagi. He wore a black turtle neck sweater and loose black pants and boots. Over his whole attire he wore a white trench coat.
'Must be Rufus. Aeris is right, he does look a little like an older version of Draco from the movies. Well, maybe he's a little bit more cuter...' she said in her mind and shook her head of her thoughts as he tried to come up with an excuse for the man who seemed to be waiting patiently on the outside.
"I uhh, it's my first day working here and my friend that works here was going to show me where my post is but I lost him when alarms sounded about some suspicious character. Something about Sephiroth. So I decided to look around for a bit until he comes back." Usagi said, praying that he would believe her.
Rufus narrowed his eyes at her even more. He knew that she was lying a little and could sense the fear radiating off of her as he looked at her with his cold gaze. He looked at her up and down and couldn't help but notice her figure, she looked beautiful, more so then the slutty girls from Midgar when they try to catch his attention. But what really caught him the most were her silver hair and those bright blue eyes. He frowned at her hair since it reminded him of a certain someone but those eyes. They seemed to be windows to her very soul. And he could see that she was one of innocence but at the same time of ones who saw too much.
"Fine then but make sure you get to your post once your 'friend' is back." Rufus said, emphasizing on the word friend and he hastily walked past her and into the captains quarter.
Usagi breathe a sigh of relief and hurried to the others. After ten more minutes of doing nothing, Cloud, Aeris and Tifa came back with a void look on their faces.
"So Spike, what happened?" Barret asked.
Cloud looked up at the gruff man and in a monotone voice replied. "Sephiroth's alive."

Tsuki- Okay peeps, It time for fun facts of the day! I know that many of you may know most of this stuff already but I just feel like putting it up and if you didn't know some of the facts then feel free to check out yourself. Also, I don't have a walkthrough and I never used one either, I found them out on my own actually. (This is what happens when you have LOTS of free time and drink tons of caffeinated drinks.) ^_^;;
In Kalm, if you look in every door and cupboard you'll find some Ethers, and a Guard source. My friend says that you can get a Megalixer somewhere but I haven't found it. Maybe it's that one item that I can't seem to get that in the top floor of the inn... Does anyone know how to get that?
In Upper Junon, you know the alleyway where the soldiers are training in the second disc? Well right by them is an alarm. If you press that then the screen will flash red and the alarm will go off. Not only that but you will get into random battles with some powerful monsters. So then you'll have a whooping of EXP and Gil for the first disc. But it will be pretty hard to beat them in this point of the game.
Do you remember that lazy fat-a$$ soldier that does nothing but sit around all day in Upper Junon? Go into the next room and 'talk', yes talk, to the silver garbage bin. It will say the same thing as the soldier. Which is something I find to be very weird. o_O
That's all for now! I'll have more by the next chapter. If there is anything like rumors that you want confirmed or anything that you don't understand then just e-mail me at AngelBlue371@aol.com or tell me in your review and I'll be more then happy to answer you! Ja ne!
