"How about if I go out with you once?" Ruka had said, smiling at Cloud, who was eyeing the Turk.
"Oh yeah...... I know you. That uniform......" Cloud said, thinking aloud. Ruka's face became worried a little bit as she saw Reno, the crimson haired Turk take a step forward.
"......Hey sis, this one's a little weird." A SOLDIER clad in blue uniform said.
"Shut up! You Shinra spy!" Cloud yelled back at him. He too took a step foward, as if accepting Reno's un annoucned challenge.
"Reno! Want him taken out?" came another voice from the uniforms.
"I haven't decided yet." The crimson haired Turk took one last puff of his cigarette and threw it on the ground. He put it out with his shoe and slipped his free hand in his pants pocket. He drew out his Mag-Rod and pointed it at Cloud, who in turn drew his Buster Sword.
Ruka gulped and tried to remember everything that was happening. After some hesitation, she cried,"Don't fight here! You'll ruin the flowers! The exit is back there!" She grabbed Cloud's arm and ran off towards the backdoor, leaving Reno and his group alone.
"They were...Mako eyes... Yeah, All right." Reno said quietly, then turned to face his group. "Back to work, back to work. Oh! And don't step on the flowers......" He started to walk to the door, when his group yelled back,"Hey Reno, you just stepped on them!" "They're all ruined!" "You're gonna catch holy hell!" They then ran after their boss, being careful not to trample on the flowers.

Cloud and Ruka had escaped to the second level of the church, when Reno ran in. The Turk looked around for a minute, then saw them. "There they are, over there!" He pointed in the direction of Ruka and Cloud.
"Cloud! He's here!" Ruka said, stopping in her tracks. 'Crap...I already screwed up..that's not what Aeris said!'
"I know. Looks like they aren't going to let us go." Cloud backed up against the wall, motioning for Aeris to do the same.
{Author's Note: He still thinks she's Aeris, so, when describing Cloud's moves, I'll call her Aeris. But it's still Ruka!}
"What should we do?" Ruka said, panting. They'd ran all the way up the back staircase, and jumped across a broken ledge. 'This is worse then gym class...and it's for real too! Ooooh boy...'
"Well, we can't let them catch us, can we?" He looked down over the broken banister, to see that Reno and his group were making their way towards the broken ledge. "Then there's only one thing left." Cloud came off the wall and jumped to the next platform. "Aeris! This way!" He held out his hand and helped his companion up on the ledge with him. "All right, I'll hold them off!"
"Right! Make sure they dont get through!" Ruka said, running across the planks of wood. 'The exit should be around here somewhere!'
"The Ancient is getting away! Attack! Attack! Attack!" Reno yelled. His Soldiers aimed their rifles below Ruka's feet to try to knock her off balance.
She escaped the first few shots, then as she stepped foward, she heard a 'craaack!' of a board. Ruka couldn't jump foward or back. She had been running much too fast. 'Aeris's feet fell out from under her and she fell to the ground with a 'thud!'.
"Aeris!" Cloud screamed from the top of the church.
"Think we killed 'em? They shouldn't have put up a fight, I say!" Reno said, mildly laughing
"Ow...my head..." Ruka said aloud, opening her eyes. She was at the very bottom of the church now. As she stood up, one of the soldiers jumped in her pathway to the stairs.
Ruka looked at the soldier, whose eyes were un-seeable through the thick mask. She paniked a little, not really knowing what to do...she looked all around the church basement. 'Crap...I guess I have to fight now...' She held her hands out in front of her, palms downward, and a thick combat rod appeared in them. "Fight me or fuzz off!" she said, even though that's nothing that Aeris would've said.
The soldier seemed a little suprised, and lowered his gun. "Ruka?"
Ruka's eyes widened. "Yea! It's me! Who are you? Chris?" She held her rod close to her, just in case though.
The soldier took off his helmet, revealing dark brown hair that fell just below the shoulders. "I'm so glad I found you, Ruka!"
Ruka blinked for a minuted. The he had been a she the entire time! "Yuki!" Ruka yelled happily. "I thought I was having a really bad dream! But, I'm not because you wouldnt be in it!" Ruka's rod disappeared as she happily danced around her best friend.
"Wait," Yuki said, putting her helmet under her arm. "Are you...Aeris?"
Ruka stopped dancing and sweatdropped. She'd forgotten all about being Aeris. "Y-yea..."
Yuki bursted out laughing.
"It's not funny! I hate Aeris! You do, too!" Ruka stomped her foot on the ground.
"I'm sorry... I cant help it. I've never seen you in a pink dress before..." Yuki snorted and continued laughing.
"Hmph..."
"Ok..." Yuki said, regaining her composure. "I'm supposed to be either killing or kidnapping the Ancient so...what do ya wanna do?"
Ruka's eyes widened. "That should be easy! Like I wanna die! Shouldn't we be trying to find a way out of here?!"
"Yea but...I'm playing along as a SOLDIER because I wanna see Sephie!" Yuki said, smiling happily.
Ruka rolled her eyes and stood still in thought. "Take me prisoner. Maybe we can find some help at Shinra HQ." Ruka held her arms out to Yuki.
"Okay...maybe. Yea!" Yuki put her helmet back on her head and grabbed Ruka's wrists. "Reno! I got the Ancient!" she yelled upwards.
"Good job!" Reno yelled from upstairs. "Bring her up!
"Heehee..." Ruka said, halfsmiling at Yuki.
Yuki smiled back, but no one could see it...
