CHAPTER 2

Inside Harry's Dreams...

???: ......You all right? ......Can you hear me?

Harry: ......Yeah......

???: Back then...... You could get by with just skinned knees......

Harry: ......What do you mean by 'back then'?

???: What about now? Can you get up?

Harry: ......What do you mean by 'back time'? ......What about now?

???: ......Don't worry about me. You just worry about yourself now.

Harry: ......I'll give it a try.

??? (woman's voice): Oh! It moved!

???: ......How about that? Take it slow now. Little by little......

??? (woman's voice): Hello, hello?

Harry: Hey... who are you?

??? (woman's voice): Hello, hello!

Harry woke up in a church with the flower girl.

Flower Girl: you okay? This is a church in the Sector 5 slums. It suddenly fell on top of me. It really gave me a scare.

Harry: ......I came crashing down?

Flower Girl: The roof and the flower bed must have broken your fall. You're

lucky.

Harry: Flower bed...... is this yours? Sorry about that.

Flower Girl: That's all right. The flowers here are quite resilient because this is a sacred place. They say you can't grow grass and flowers in London. But for some reason, the flowers have no trouble blooming here. I love it here.

Harry talks to the flower girl again.

Flower Girl: ......So, we meet again. ......Don't you remember me? You do?

Harry: Yeah, I remember... You were selling flowers.

Flower Girl: Oh! I'm so happy! Thanks for buying my flowers. Say, do you have any Materia?

Harry: I don't usually need it...nowadays you can find Materia everywhere...

Flower Girl: But mine is special. It's good for absolutely nothing.

Harry: ......good for nothing? You probably just don't know how to use it.

Flower Girl: No, I do...... it just doesn't do anything. I feel safe having it. It was my mother's...... Say, I feel like talking. Do you feel up to it? After all, here we are meeting again, right?

Harry: I don't mind.

Flower Girl: Wait here. I've got to check my flowers. It'll just be a minute.

Harry spoke to the flower girl again.

Flower Girl: Just a little longer. Oh! Now that you mention it...... We don't know each other's names, do we? My name is...... I'm Ginny, the flower girl. Nice to meet you.

Ginny Weasely is a flower girl. She's 23 years old, got a nice but a long brown-haired braid with a pink hair band, necklace, short red shirt, pink dress, wrist band on both arms, boots, and she uses a staff as her weapon. She is not a strong fighter.

Harry: The name's Harry. Me? I do a little bit of everything.

Ginny: Oh...... a jack of all trades.

Harry: Yeah, I do whatever's needed. What's so funny? What are you laughing at?

Ginny: Sorry...... I just...

Harry and Ginny saw the Turks member, Reno and his bodyguards.

Ginny: Say, Harry. Have you ever been a bodyguard? You DO do everything, right?

Harry: ......Yeah, that's right.

Ginny: Then, get me out of here. Take me home.

Harry: OK, I'll do it... but it'll cost you.

Ginny: Well then, let's see...... How about if I go out with you once?

Harry then approaches Reno.

Harry: I don't know who you are, but...... You don't know me......?

???: ......I know you.

Harry: Oh yeah...... I know you. That uniform......

Malfoy soldier: ......Hey sis, this one's a little weird.

Harry: Shut up! You Malfoy spy!

Malfoy soldier: Reno! Want him taken out?

Reno: I haven't decided yet.

Ginny: Don't fight here! You'll ruin the flowers! The exit is back there.

Harry and Ginny moves on.

Reno: They were...... Mako eyes. Yeah, all right. (To the Malfoy soldiers) Back to work, back to work. Oh! And don't step on the flowers......

Malfoy soldier 1: Hey Reno, you just stepped on them!

Malfoy soldier 2: They're all ruined!

Malfoy soldier 3: You're gonna catch holy hell!

Harry and Ginny

goes up to the upper level of the church...

Reno: There they are, over there!

Ginny: Harry... that one!

Harry: I know. Looks like they aren't going to let us go.

Ginny: What should we do?

Harry: Well we can't let them catch us, can we? Then there's only one thing left.

Harry jumped to the next platform.

Harry: Ginny! This way! All right I'll hold them off.

Ginny: Right. Make sure they don't get through!

Reno: The Ancient is getting away! Attack! Attack! Attack!

The Malfoy soldiers opened fire with their rifles.

Ginny: Eaygh!!

Ginny fell to the basement.

Harry: Ginny!!

Reno: Think we killed'em? They shouldn't have put up a fight, I say!

Ginny: Harry, help!

Harry: Damn! (he looks at the barrels) What's that...?

Harry knocked one barrel at the first Malfoy soldier killing him.

Ginny: Thanks, Harry. (another soldier blocked her way) Eaygh!! Harry, help!

Harry knocked another barrel at the second Malfoy soldier killing him.

Ginny: Thanks, Harry. (another soldier blocked her way) Eaygh!! Harry, help again!!

Harry knocked another barrel at the third Malfoy soldier killing him.

Ginny: Thanks, Harry.

Ginny met up with Harry.

Harry: Ginny, this way.

They got up to the roof of the church.

Ginny: Ha, ha...... They're looking for me again.

Harry: You mean it's not the first time they've been after you?

Ginny: ...no.

Harry: They're the Turks.

Ginny: Hmmm......

Harry: The Turks are an organization in Malfoy. They scout for possible candidates for MAGESOLDIER.

Ginny: This violently? I thought they were kidnapping someone.

Harry: They're also involved in a lot of dirty stuff on the side. Spying, murder... you know.

Ginny: They look like it.

Harry: But, why're they after you? There must be a reason, right?

Ginny: No, not really. I think they believe I have what it takes to be in MAGESOLDIER!

Harry: Maybe you do. You want to join?

Ginny: I don't know... But I don't want to get caught by THOSE people!

Harry: Then let's go!

As Harry jumps roof to roof.

Ginny: Wait... Wait, I said! Puff... wheeze... Slow......down... Don't leave me......

Harry: Funny...... I thought you were cut out to be in MAGESOLDIER?

Ginny: Oh! You're terrible! Hey...... Harry. Were you... ever in MAGESOLDIER?

Harry: ...... ...I used to be. How did you guess?

Ginny: ...Your eyes. They have a strange glow...

Harry: That's the sign of those who have been infused with *Mako(energía extraida de la tierra, dícese que es espiritual)... A mark of MAGESOLDIER. But, how did you know about that?

Ginny: ......Oh, nothing.

Harry: Nothing...?

Ginny: Right, nothing! Come on, let's go! Bodyguard!

After Harry and Ginny gets off the roofs and onto the streets...

Ginny: Whew! Finally made it off! Now what... My house is over here. Hurry before he comes.

Harry and Ginny hurries to Ginny's house. Ginny's house was a little one, surrounded by flowers, creating an appealing environment. In Ginny's House...

Ginny: I'm, home mom. This is Harry. My bodyguard.

Elmyra: Bodyguard......? You mean you were followed again!? Are you all right!? You're not hurt, are you!?

Ginny: I'm all right. I had Harry with me.

Elmyra: Thank you, Harry.

Ginny: So what are you going to do now?

Harry: ...Is Sector 7 far from here? I want to go to Hermione's bar.

Ginny: Is Hermione...... a girl?

Harry: Yeah.

Ginny: A girl...friend?

Harry: Girlfriend? No way...

Ginny: You sound like it was a bad thing , tee-hee.

Harry: ...oh well, never mind.

Ginny: Sector 7 is not far from here... I'll take you there.

Harry: You gotta be kidding. Why do you want to put yourself in danger again?

Ginny: I'm used to it.

Harry: Used to it!? ......Well, don't know... getting help from a girl...

Ginny: A girl!! What do you mean by that!? You expect me to just sit by and

listen, after hearing you say something like that!? (to Elmyra) Mom! I'm taking Harry to Sector 7. I'll be back in a while.

Elmyra: But dear... I give up. You never listen once you've made up your mind. But if you must go, why don't you go tomorrow? It's getting late now.

Ginny: Yeah, you're right, mom.

Elmyra: Ginny, please go and make the bed.

As Harry goes upstairs.

Elmyra: Harry...

Harry attended to Elmyra's call...

Elmyra: Harry... I need to ask you a favor...can you please leave tonight? I'm very worried about Ginny... she's being followed by those strange people...and I don't want her to endanger herself... please understand...

Harry: I don't care.

Elmyra: Thanks Harry... MAGESOLDIER... the last thing that Ginny needs to have her feelings hurt again...

Harry went upstairs and met Ginny

Ginny: You need to go through Sector 6 to get to Sector 7. Sector 6 is a little dangerous so you'd better get some rest tonight. Harry... Good night.

Ginny left.

Harry: Oh, man...

Harry goes to sleep, in his dreams.

???: ...seem pretty tired......

Harry: .........!?

???: I haven't slept in a bed like this ...in a long time.

Harry: ...Oh, yeah.

???: Ever since that time.

In Harry's dream at his home...

Harry's Mom: My, how you're grown. I'll bet the girls never leave you alone.

Harry: ...Not really.

Harry's Mom: ...I'm worried about you. There are a lot of temptations in the city... I'd feel a lot better if you just settled down and had a nice girlfriend.

Harry: ...I'm all right.

Harry's Mom: You should have... an older girlfriend, one that'll take care of you. I think that would be the perfect type for you.

Harry: ......I'm not interested.

Harry woke up after dreaming.

Harry: ... I must've fallen asleep. Sector 7's past Sector 6... I should be all right by myself...

Harry walks quietly (trying not to let Ginny hear him) down the stairs and out to the Sector 6 streets.

Ginny: You're up bright and early.

Harry: How could I ask you to go along when I knew it would be dangerous?

Ginny: Are you done? You have to go through the slums in Sector 6 to get to

Hermione's 7th Heaven. I'll take you there. Come on!

Harry and Ginny reached the playground. In there...

Ginny: The gate to Sector 7's in there.

Harry: Thanks. I guess this is goodbye. You gonna be all right going home?

Ginny: Oh no! What ever will I do!? ...isn't that what you want me to say? Take me to Sector 7? I could do that. But won't I be in your way?

Harry: What do you mean in the way?

Ginny: Nothing! Can we take a break? I can't believe it's still here. Harry, over here!

As they sat on the slide and meditated for a while.

Ginny: What rank were you?

Harry: Rank?

Ginny: You know, in MAGESOLDIER.

Harry: Oh, I was...

Suddenly, a flash appeared on Harry's head.

Harry: First Class.

Ginny: Just the same as him...

Harry: The same as who?

Ginny: My first boyfriend.

Harry: You were... serious?

Ginny: No. But I liked him for a while.

Harry: I probably knew him. What was his name?

Ginny: It doesn't really matter.

The Sector 7's gate opened with a cart(carruaje) and Hermione was on it.

Harry: Huh? Hey, back there...... Hermione!?

Ginny: That girl in the cart was Hermione? Where was she going? She looked kind of odd...

Ginny ran following the cart...to the Wall Market.

Harry: Wait! I'll go on alone!! You go on home!!

As Harry ran to the Wall Market, he met up with Ginny.

Ginny: This place is scary in a lot of ways. Especially for a girl. So we've got to find Hermione fast.

When Harry and Ginny arrived at the Honey Bee Inn, Harry spoke to some guard and got information where Hermione is...Don Corneo's Mantion...a strange place to most... Harry and Ginny proceeded to the mansion.

Man: This is Don Corneo's mansion. He's a big shot here in Wall Market. Listen, the Don's not interested in men. So just get the hell outta here. Hey, any you got another cute one with you!

Ginny: (to Harry) Hey, this looks like the Don's mansion. I'll go take a look. I'll tell Hermione about you.

Harry: No!! You can't!!

Ginny: Why?

Harry: You DO know... what kind of... place this is, don't you?

Ginny: Then what as I supposed to do? You want to go in with me?

Harry: Well being a man, that'll be pretty hard. Besides if I bust in there, it'll cause too much commotion. But, I just can't let you go in alone... Oh, man...... First... we need to find out if Hermione's alright... What's so funny Ginny?

Ginny was laughing on loud (LOL ^_^)

Ginny: Harry, why don't you dress up like a girl? It's the only way*.

*(A/N: This is based on FF7's context , not my idea ^_^° )

Harry: WHAT!?

Ginny: (to the man) Just wait. I've got a cute friend I want to bring.

Harry: Ginny! I can't......

Ginny: You are worried about Hermione, aren't you? Then come on, hurry!

Harry and Ginny heads to the clothing store. Inside...

Ginny: Excuse me! I'd like to get a dress.

Girl: Umm, it might take a little time. Will that be all right?

Ginny: What's the problem?

Girl: Well, my father, the owner, has been in a slump lately. You see, he makes all the dresses.

Ginny: And, where is your father?

Girl: He's probably plastered at the bar.

Ginny: So... You're saying we can't get a dress unless we do something about your father?

Girl: Yes, I'm sorry. He's caused so much trouble. You'd help be bring him back?

Ginny: Well, if we do something, we don't get a dress, right?

Girl: Really!? Please help my crazy old dad. I just don't know what to do anymore...

Ginny: All right, we'll do something. Let's go, Harry!

Harry and Ginny hurried to the restaurant. Inside the restaurant, Ginny talks to the clothes store owner.

Ginny: (to the owner) Excuse us, are you the father of the girl at the Clothing Store?

Owner: I own the Clothes shop... but I ain't your father.

Harry: Make me some clothes.

Owner: I don't make men's clothes. And I don't feel like makin' anything right now.

Ginny: Harry, you wait over there for a second. I'll try and talk to him. Why don't you go over there and have something to drink.(Harry left).

Ginny:(to the owner) You know, Mister. He always said that just once, he'd like to dress up like a girl. So, that's why I wanted a cute dress for him...

Owner: What!? A tough lookin' guy like that?

Ginny: So, how 'bout it? Will you make him one?

Owner: ...might be interesting. I was gettin' a little bored just makin' regular clothes.

Ginny: Then you'll do it for us?

Owner: Yeah, all right. What king of dress you want?

Ginny: Something... That feels soft. And something... that shimmers.

Owner: Hmm, got it. Y'know I got a friend that has the same taste as him. I'll go talk to him.

Harry helped a woman in a restroom by giving her a Digestive medicine, and she thanked Harry and gave him a Sexy Cologne. Then Harry and Ginny head to the clothing store.

Owner: Oh, you're here. It's ready. Go try it on.

Harry got a Silk Dress. Harry then goes to the dressing room and tries it on... ( N/A: Yeah... I know it's weird, but that's the way it is ^_^°)

Harry: How...... do you put this on? Whoa! What are you doing!

Ginny: (peeking at Harry) It's still not right. A wig! That's what you need!

Owner: (to Harry) Umm, I thought you might, so I talked to my friend about getting one. You know the gym? You'll find a lot of people there "like you". Go and talk to them.

Harry: ..."like you" ? Ginny, what did you tell him?

Ginny: Does it matter? Anyhow, we got a pretty dress!

Harry and Ginny headed to the gym.

Gym Owner: You the one...... Who wants to be "cute"?

Harry: ...Cute?

Ginny: Right. And about the wig...

Gym Owner: Yeah, I heard. But it'll cost ya.

Some muscular guy came over.

Muscular Guy 1: Urrrrgh!!! Big Bro!! The only way you're gonna get cuter is if you can beat Big Bro!!

Muscular Guy 2: That's right!

Muscular Guy 3: So, you've got to compete with us!

Gym Owner: You're right. Let's do squats(flexiones).

Muscular Guy 2: All right! We'll beat you out of this gym!

Harry: Are you...?

Ginny: The beautiful Bro?

Gym Owner: What? You didn't know? Always running around here sayin' Big Bro' this, Big Bro' that... (to muscular guy 1) Never mind that, come over here. No, I'll explain the rules. (explains) Got it?

Harry: Got it.

Gym Owner: Whoever has the most squats after 30 seconds gets the wig.

Muscular Guy 1: I'm not going to lose. Big Bro's wig is MINE!!

Gym Owner: Just be quiet... It's not fair for you to start right away. (to Harry) So, you want some practice?

Harry: Don't need to practice, I did a lot of these by the time I was in training.

Gym Owner: Now let's begin the real thing. Start!

Harry and the muscular guy begins squatting. At the end, Harry won the contest.

Gym Owner: You're really something. Okay, I'm a man of my word, here you are.

Harry got a Blonde Wig.

Muscular Guy 1: Big Bro, I'm so mad, I'm so so so---mad!

The gym owner punched the muscular guy 1 to the wall.

Gym Owner: Shut up! Don't cry, just because you lost!

Muscular Guy 2: Uuuuhh, Bro's fists of steel cut to the bone!

Then Harry and Ginny made haste to the clothing shop.

Ginny: Aren't you going to change?

Harry: Okay... I'm ready.

Harry goes to the dressing room and dresses up like a girl. Harry came out.

Owner: Hmm, not bad. This may be a new business for me.

Girl: Yeah, you're right. Should we try it? Thanks for showing us something new. My father's got his motivation back now. So the dress in the house.

Ginny: Walk more nicely like... this. "Miss Harry".

Harry: ...What do you mean 'nicely'?

Harry walks and stands with his hands together.

Ginny: Oh you're so cute, "Miss Harry". (to the owner) Aaah, I want one. Do you have one that'll look good on me too?

Girl: How's this?

Owner: How about that one?

Girl: Father, what are you talking about? This one's much better.

Owner: No, what are you saying? This one.

Ginny: (chose the clothing she wanted to try) ...I want this one.

Owner: Huh?

Girl: Huh?

Ginny: I'm going to go change. ......No peeking!

Ginny dresses up. After that, she got out of the dressing room with her dress outfit.

Ginny: So? How do I look?

Harry doesn't respond.

Ginny: Oh, you're no fun!

Harry and Ginny both in dresses head to the Don's mansion. Outside...

Man: Damn! Your friend's hot, too! Come in, come in!! (to the second man) Two ladies coming through!!

Inside...

Man 2: Hey, ladies. I'll go and let the Don know you're here. Wait here. Don't go wandering around...

Ginny: (to Harry) Now's our chance. Let's find Hermione.

They head to the basement where they found Hermione dressed up.

Ginny: Hermione? It's good to see you again!

Hermione: Same here!? Hey you're the one with Harry in the park...

Ginny: Right, with Harry.

Hermione: Oh......

Ginny: Don't worry. We just met. It's nothing.

Hermione: What do you mean, 'Don't worry'... about what? No, don't misunderstand. Harry and I grew up together. Nothing more.

Ginny: Poor Harry having to stand here and listen to both of us call him nothing. Right, Harry?

Hermione: Harry? ???? Harry!? Why are you dresssed like that!? And what are you doing here!? Forget that, what happened to you after the fall!? Are you hurt!?

Harry: Hey, give me a chance to answer. I'm dressed like this...... because

there was no other way to get in here. I'm all right. Ginny helped me out.

Hermione: Oh, Ginny did...

Harry: Hermione, explain. What are you doing in a place like this?

Hermione: Yeah, ummm......

Ginny: Ahem!! I'll just plug my ears.

Hermione talks to Harry in private.

Hermione: I'm glad you're OK.

Harry: Thanks. What happened?

Hermione: When we got back from the Number 5 reactor, there was this weird man. So Barret caught him and squeezed some information out of him.

Harry: That's when the Don's name popped up.

Hermione: Right, Don Corneo. Barret told me to leave the fool alone... But something's been bothering me.

Harry: I see. So you wanted to get the story straight from Corneo's mouth.

Hermione: So I made it here, but now I'm in a bind. Corneo is looking for a bride. Everyday, he gets three girls, chooses one of them, and then... ...and, well... Anyway, I have to be the girl ...or I'm out for tonight.

Ginny: Sorry... but I overheard... if you know the three girls, there's no problem, right?

Harry: No, Ginny! I can't have you get involved.

Ginny: Oh? So it's all right for Hermione to be in danger?

Harry: No, I don't want Hermione in...

Hermione: Is it all right?

Ginny: I grew up in the slums... I'm used to danger. Do you trust me?

Hermione: Yes. Thanks, "Ms. Ginny".

Ginny: Call me "Ginny".

Man 2: He---y!! It's time, ladies. The Don is waiting! I told you not to wander around... I tell ya, women nowadays... Hurry up, will ya!

Harry: I probably don't need to ask but the other girl is...... Me...... right?

Hermione: You're right, there was no need...

Ginny: ...to ask.

Harry, Ginny, and Hermione head to the Don's room. In there...

Kotch: All right ladies! Line up in front of the Don!

Corneo: Hmmm! Good, splendid! Now, let's see... which girl should I choose? Hmm- - hmm---! This one? Or this one?

Corneo looks at Harry but Harry turns his face away from Corneo.

Corneo: Woo--hoo, I've made up my mind!! My choice for tonight is...... (look at Harry) This healthy looking girl!!!

Harry: Wa, wait a sec!! I mean, uh, please wait a moment!!

Corneo: Woo-hoo! I love chickies who play hard-to-get! Yeowza! (to the second man) You can have the other ones!

Man 2: Yes, sir! Thank you sir!

The second man took Ginny and Hermione.

Corneo: (to Harry) Well then, shall we go my pretty!?

Later alone with Harry and Corneo...

Corneo: Ahh, we're finally alone... All right, pussycat... Come to daddy!! You're so cute, I never get tired of looking at you. Do you... like me, too?

Harry: Ummm......

Corneo: You don't like me? There... there isn't someone else, is there?

Harry: Yes, his name's Barret...

Corneo: No way! Hmm? Barret? That sounds familiar...

Harry: You know, he's one of the ones you were trying to find out about. You know, AVALANCHE...?

Corneo: Oh, yeah, yeah. In Sector 7 in the slum... ...and how do YOU know that!?

Harry took off his dress revealing his normal self.

Corneo: A man!? You tricked me!! Somebody get in here NOW!!

???: Unfortunately, no one'll be comin' to help.

Hermione and Ginny in their normal outfits came.

Corneo: You're the ones from before! Wh... what the hell's going on?

Hermione: Shut up, we're asking the questions now... What did your assistants find out? Talk! If you don't tell us...

Harry: ...I'll crush you.

Corneo: No! Not that! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything!

Hermione: So... talk.

Corneo: ... I made 'em find out where the man with the gun-arm was. But that's what I was ordered to do.

Hermione: By who?

Corneo: No--! If I told you that, I'd be killed!

Hermione: Talk! If you don't tell us...

Ginny: ...I'll kick your arse so hard you'll kiss the moon (Harle quote -Chrono Cross ^_^).

Corneo: Waaaaaaaaaaah--! It was Heidegger of Malfoy! Heidegger, the head of

Public Safety Maintenance!

Harry: The head of Public Safety Maintenance!?

Hermione: Did you say the Malfoy!? What are they up to!? Talk! If you don't

tell us... I'll smash you.

Corneo: ...You're serious, aren't you... ...ohboy, ohboy, ohboy. ...I'm not

fooling around here either, you know. Malfoy's trying to crush a small rebel group called AVALANCHE, and want to infiltrate their hideout. And they're really going to crush them... literally, by breaking the support holding up the plate above them.

Hermione: Break the support!?

Corneo: You know what's going to happen? The plate'll go PING and everything's gonna go BAMMM!! I heard their hideout's in the Sector 7 Slums... I'm just glad it's not here in Sector 6.

Hermione: They're going to wipe out the Sector 7 Slums!? Harry, will you come with me to Sector 7?

Harry: Of course, Hermione.

Corneo: Just a second!

Harry: Shut up!

Corneo: No wait, it'll only take a second. How do you think scum like me feels when they babble on about the truth?

Harry: They're sure they'll win?

Corneo: Woo-hoo! Right!

Corneo pulled the switch and Harry, Ginny and Hermione fell off the mansion.

Meanwhile at the Malfoy Headquarters.

President Malfoy: How are the preparations going?

Heidegger: Har, har, har! Smoothly, very smoothly! I assigned the Turks to this.

Dean Thomas: President!! Are we really going to do this? Simply destroy a group with only a few members...

Dean Thomas was assigned to Malfoy H.Q. He was the head of the urban development department. He didn't like Lucius Malfoy's ideas too much, and mostly opposed them with no avail.

President Malfoy: What's the problem, Dean? You want out?

Dean: ...No. But, as head of the Urban Development Department, I have been involved in the running and good care of London. That's why...

Heidegger: Dean, you should flush your personal problems in the morning!

Dean: The Mayor's against this anyway...

Heidegger: Mayor? He just sits in this building all day feeding his face! You still call that a Mayor? Now if you'll excuse me sir!

Heidegger left. Dean tried to follow Heidegger, but he stopped.

President Malfoy: (to Dean) You're tired. Why don't you take a couple of days off and go somewhere. (to himself) We'll destroy Sector 7 and report that AVALANCHE did it. Then we'll send in the rescue operation care of Malfoy, Inc. ...Heh, heh, heh... This is perfect.

Meanwhile after Harry, Ginny and Hermione landed in the sewers...

Harry: You alright?

Hermione: Man! This is terrible.

Harry: (to Ginny) You alright?

Ginny: Yeah. Well, the worst is over... (heard a strange noise) Maybe not...

The sewer's waters began to shake hard... then a giant monster-like alligator appeared form them in front of the group.

Ginny: Oh my God...!!

Hermione: Ginny!!! Get down!!!

Ginny could get down before the mosnter's tail would rip her head off.

Harry took out his sword.

Harry: Damn Monster, die!!!

Harry rushed towards the monster, jumped and delivered his new Limit Break "Braver Cut".

It was not enough , and the monster began delivering strong blows to the group.

Hermione: I'm... tired...this' the end...

Harry: Don't say that Hermione, be strong... what's that song!?

Both Harry and Hermione looked back where Ginny was singing some sweet and calm chant, that irradiated a recovery aura... Ginny released her Limit Break "Healing Wind".

The entire group recovered their strengths and power...now they were ready for action ^_^

Hermione: Beat Rush!!!

The monster couldn't do a thing about the series of powerful punches delivered to it, plus Somersault and a new one... Water Kick , an accurate low sweep kick that strike with the power of the seas. At the same time, Harry was in the sky ready to deliver the deathblow: Heavenly Sword.

The sewers were engulfed in a bright and relucient light... and the monster...ashes...

Hermione: It's too late...... Marlene... Barret... the people of the Slums.

Ginny: Don't give up, never give up hope. It's not easy to destroy the pillar, right?

Hermione: ......... Yeah...... you're right! We still have time.

They head out of the sewers and into the Train Graveyard.

Harry: Ginny. I got you mixed up in all of this...

Ginny: Don't tell me to go home.

Hermione: Let's see... If we can get past the trains that are lit up, we should be able to get out of here.

They went through Train Graveyard and onto the Pillar Station which there is some violence going on.

Hermione: We made it! The pillar's standing!

Harry: Wait! You hear something...... above us?

Ginny: ......gun fire?

Suddenly Wedge was shot and fell from the extremely tall pillar.

Harry: Wedge!! You all right!?

Wedge: ......Harry...... You remembered...... my name. Barret's up top. ...help him...... And Harry... Sorry, I wasn't any help.

Harry: I'm going up! Ginny! You look after Wedge.

Hermione: Ginny, do me a favor. I have a bar called '7th Heaven' in this neighborhood. There's a little girl named Marlene there......

Ginny: Don't worry. I'll put her somewhere safe.

Hermione: It's dangerous here! Everyone get away from the pillar, quickly! Everyone get out of Sector 7!

Harry and Hermione go up and they saw Neville dying.

Neville: Harry... so you don't care... what happens... to the... Planet?

Harry: Sorry Neville...but that matters me not...

Neville: Hmph... you haven't changed. Oh, forget it...

Harry and Hermione continued climbing the plate, fighting some Malfoy soldiers on the way... Harry and Hermione then saw Jessie dying.

Jessie: ...Harry... I'm glad...... I could talk with you... one last time.

Harry: ...Don't say "last"...

Jessie: ...Is... that so......? Ha...... cool...... as usual... ex-... MAGESOLDIER. ...always... I liked that... in you...

Jesse died... tears couldn't be spillt ...Harry and Hermione hurried to the top of the plate...sad...

Harry and Hermione met up with Barret as he opens fire at the Malfoy Helicopter.

Barret: Hermione! Harry! You came! Be careful! They're attacking from the helicopter.

Hermione: Better equip ourselves before they attack in full force!

After that...

Hermione: Here they come!

Reno the jumped off a Helicopter down the plate roof and manipulated some kind of CPU.

Reno: You're too late. Once I push this button... (pressed the computer button) That's all, folks! Mission accomplished.

Hermione: We have to disarm it! Harry! Barret! Please!

Reno: I can't have you do that. No one gets in the way of Reno and the Turks...

Harry's group fights Reno

Reno: Let's see...

Reno cast Pyramid , a spell that enclosed Hermione in some sort of giant pyramid, paralyzing her.

Hermione yelled loud but couldn't be heard 'cause of the pyramid

Harry: You bastard, what have you done to Hermione!!!

Reno: Pyramid, she's unable to move...and soon... to breath, ha ha ha !!!

Barret: You #%&$#% bastard...!!! -Limit Break- I'll make you pay!!! Mind Blaster !!!

Blue energy gathered on Barret's arm-gun forming a huge energy sphere

Barret: Eyagh!!!!

Barret shot the blaster...that hit Reno directly with a fiery strength , stunning Reno for some moments... the pyramid disappeared, releasing a weakened and almost dying Hermione.

Harry: Hermione! Are you ok?

Hermione:*cough*!!*cough*!! I was about to die!

Barret: Damn! Where's the #$%& !!??

Reno approaching to a Malfoy Helicopter

Reno: It's time.

Reno escaped.

Hermione was trying to disarm the bomb

Hermione: Harry! I don't know how to stop this. Try it!

Harry: ...It's not a normal time bomb.

Suddenly, the Malfoy Helicopter came up to the level of where Harry's group was.

Tseng: That's right. You'll have the hard time disarming that one. It'll blow the second some stupid jerk touches it.

Hermione: Please, stop it!

Tseng is the leader of the Turks. He's got long black hair.

Tseng: Ha ha ha... ...Only a Malfoy Executive can set up or disarm the Emergency Plate Release System.

Barret: Shut yer hole!

Barret opens fire at Tseng with anger, but no gunshots hit Tseng.

Tseng: I wouldn't try that...... You just might make me injure our special guest.

Hermione: Ginny!!!

Tseng: Oh, you know each other? How nice you could see each other one last time. You should thank me.

Harry: What are you gonna do with Ginny!?

Tseng: I haven't decided. Our orders were to find and catch the last remaining Ancient. It's taken us a long time, but now I can finally report this to the President.

Ginny: Hermione, don't worry! She's all right!

Tseng slapped Ginny.

Hermione: Ginny!

Ginny: Hurry and get out!

Tseng: Ha, ha, ha... well, it should be starting right about now. Think you can escape in time?

Now there's a scene of the helicopter flying away and the stand support blew up partially.

Barret: Yo, we can use this wire(cuerda) to get out!

Harry, Barret, and Hermione took the wire and moving to safety. We watch the scene of the destruction and the massacre of Sector 7 as the plate crushes everyone and everything in Sector 7. The President watches while listening to his favorite classical music. Later, Harry, Barret, and Hermione arrived at safety.

Barret: Marlene! MARLENE!! MAR---LE---NE!! Neville! Wedge!! Jessie!! (angry) Dammit! Godammit!! DAMMIT ALL TO HELL!!!! What the hell's it all for!? ARGHHHH!!!

Harry: Hey, Barret!

Hermione: Barret!

Barret: ARGHHHHH!!!

Harry: Hey!

Hermione: Barret, stop... Please stop, Barret.

Barret: URRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!! (shooting at the destruction of Sector 7) God damn... Marlene...(crying)

Hermione: ......... Barret......? Marlene is... I think Marlene is safe.

Barret: ......huh?

Hermione: Right before they took Ginny, she said, "Don't worry, she's all right." She was probably talking about Marlene.

Barret: R, really!?

Hermione: But...

Barret: Neville...... Wedge... Jessie......

Harry: All three of them were in the pillar...

Barret: Think I don't know that? But ...we, all of us fought together. I don't wanna think of them as dead!

Hermione: ...and the other people in Sector 7.

Barret: This is all screwed up! They destroyed an entire village just to get to us! They killed so many people...

Hermione: ...are you saying it's our fault? Because AVALANCHE was here? Innocent people lost their lives because of us?

Barret: No, Hermione! That ain't it! Hell no!! It ain't us! It's the damn Malfoy! It's never been nobody but the Malfoy! They're evil and destroyin' our planet just to... build their power and line their own damn pockets with gold! If we don't get rid of them, they're gonna kill this planet! Our fight ain't never gonna be over until we get rid of them!!

Hermione: .........I don't know.

Barret: What don't you know? You don't believe me?

Hermione: It's not that. I'm not sure about... me. My feelings.

Barret: And what about you?

Harry: .........

Without a word, Harry walked away.

Barret: Yo! Where's he think he's goin'?

Hermione: Oh! Ginny!

Barret: Oh yeah, that girl. What's up with her?

Hermione: ...I don't really know... But she's the one I left Marlene with.

Barret: Damn! Marlene!! Hermione. There ain't no turnin' back now.

Harry walks alone. Then, Barret and Hermione arrived.

Barret: Harry! Take me to Marlene!

Hermione: You're going to help Ginny?

Harry: Yeah... But before that, there's something I want to know.

Hermione: What's that?

Harry: ...it's about the Ancients.

In Harry's memory...

???: In my veins courses the blood of the Ancients. I am one of the rightful heirs to this planet! Sephiroth...?

Harry kneels to the ground.

Hermione: Are you all right?

Barret: Pull it together, man!

Harry's group proceeded to Ginny's house.

At Ginny's House

Elmyra: Harry...... wasn't it? It's about Ginny, isn't it?

Harry: Sorry. The Malfoy have her...

Elmyra: I know. They took her from here.

Harry: They were here?

Elmyra: That's what Ginny wanted.

Harry: Why is Malfoy after Ginny?

Elmyra: Ginny is an Ancient. The sole survivor.
