A/N: to snowri leonheart, Squall's love for Rinoa was very strong, I really don't think he would just "get over," Rinoa. And to all Reviewers, thank you! Today we have a new disclaimer reader, give an applause for.....Cloud!

Cloud: Like Riku said last chapter, Mypantsaresobaggy owns nothing in this story but Xavier.

Chapter 4



Cloud

Cloud could hear his own footsteps on the cold brick road. He was running, with Xavier over his shoulder, to his gummi ship. Cloud could only hope that he didn't run into anyone, especially Aerith, what would his wife think if she saw him kidnapping Leon's son.

Cloud ran into the big alley where the hotel was. He looked over his shoulder, making sure no one was following him, when he ran into Kairi.

"What ya got there Cloud?" she was pointing at the lump, which was Xavier.

"Nothing, just a doll for my wife!" Cloud was looking around nervously, that was a stupid thing to say, why would anyone be carrying a doll at nine o'clock at night?

"Oh, how sweet, well I'll be on my way."

She actually bought it, Cloud thought, man she was dumb(sorry Kairi fans.)! With that, Cloud walked off to his gummi ship and departed.

Leon

"How.how could Yuffie talk to me like that," Leon was talking to himself in the forest, "How could she say that name?" He was furious at Yuffie, he just couldn't believe it, when they said their vows, they promised they wouldn't talk about each others' pasts.

Suddenly, Leon saw a gummi ship pass right over his head. "Wasn't that Cloud's gummi ship?" Leon asked himself, " He was going toward the Olympus Coliseum world at top speeds, I better follow him."

Xavier As Xavier woke up, he felt a sharp pain in his head, he put his hand on his head, "Why am I bleeding?"

"Because I hit you with my sword!" Retorted Cloud.

All the memories came racing back in Xavier's head. The gunblade, the fight, where he slashed Cloud in the face, all of it. "Where are you taking me?!" shouted Xavier , "why did you kidnap me?!"

"Relax," said Cloud, "I can't tell you, whatever Hades wants you for." Cloud felt very sorry for commiting this crime, but he had to. If he didn't, he'd never be able to protect Aerith.

"Well, when my dad finds you, he'll kill you!" He knew his dad wouldn't find him, and he didn't blame him, it was all his fault he was here. Why, he thought, would Cloud be doing this.

They were finally there, Cloud landed the ship, and brought Xavier out. "I've brought the kid," said Cloud, acting like he didn't know who Xavier was, "Now give me my powers!"

"Alright, Cloud, here you go!" Little did Cloud know that the darkness was consuming him. After a couple of minutes of Cloud training and Hades looking Xavier over in his cell, Hades spoke up, "now my plan can take effect!"

"What are you going to do with me?" asked a frightened Xavier, "please don't kill me, I'll do whatever you want!" Xavier didn't want to die, he still had to defeat Leon.

"How would you like to become stronger, as strong as Cloud is now," asked Hades, " all you have to do is come to the side of the darkness, and help us unlock the keyholes to the worlds."

"I'll do it!" exclaimed Xavier, not knowing what danger this would put the universe in, "I'll come to the darkness." Just as Xavier said that, Leon's gummi ship landed in the dock to the coliseum.
