From my seat, I noticed a flash of red in both their faces. Smiled to myself and Red nudged my hair.
"That's new, how did that come up?"
Land ho... I heard Yuffie shout. There was a shoreline just up ahead. Cid beached the Tiny Bronco at the shoreline. We have just arrived at Wutai, Yuffie's sad hometown. Where we beached the plane was on the other side of the canyon. To get to the town we had to hike.
"Lisa, how old is your brother," Yuffie suddenly came up to me.
"He's about your age, dear." I answered patting her head.
She looked glad for some reason. Not even half way to Wutai, Yuffie jumped in front of us.
"What's up Yuffie?" Naz asked, tilted his head in confusement.
She just kept quiet and ran off. Out of nowhere, two Shinra goons appeared. We fought and won.
"I knew I realized something, my materia's gone." Aerith cried.
Luckily Naz and I were prepared for this. At Rocket Town, we replicated all the materia and made extras for times such as this. We hid them carefully, camouflaged in our bags. Yuffie only took the materia we equipped as there were many of us. Gratefully, everyone took and equipped the materia that we supplied. All worked splendidly.
"Now, let's get Yuffie." Cloud led the way.
Fighting monsters along the way, we sped to Wutai. Saw Yuffie and chased her all over the village and back to the Turtle's Paradise Inn.
"Alright, I'll give you back your materia." She confessed, without noticing the materia I equipped on everyone and led us back to her house.
At the house, she led us downstairs in her operating room. She told us that we had to pull the switch to get the materia.
I whispered to Naz, "Get everyone away from the center of the room. You remember what she did in the game." He nodded and signaled for everyone to hug the walls instead.
I pulled one of the switches and a cage crashed down in center of the room. I pulled it again and it went up again.
"The jig is up, Yuffie, hand over the materia." I grinned at Yuffie from the other end of the room.
She panicked, and before we knew it, ninja stars and shurikens flew at us by the dozen.
"Duck ... hold your ground!" Cloud yelled.
All of us ducked in time but Naz was hit! "Naz..." I screamed as I rushed to him and helped unfasten his helmet. A shuriken had damaged the main circuits and the helmet had to be removed. "Gasp...!" Naz took in the air, panting. Yuffie stopped her jumping and locked her eyes on my brother's face. Her heart skipped a beat, but snapped out of it and scrambled out the door.
"I'm fine Kak Lisa, you don't have to make a fuss over me, go get her before she gets away," he shrugged me to go.
Red offered to carry him on his back, but as arrogant and stubborn as I remembered, he declined the offer. He's trying to hard to be a tough guy. I shook my head and asked Red to accompany him while we looked for her. Near the five-storey pagoda, I rang the bell to reveal the hidden door.
"Don Corneo, you overgrown pervert, unhand them at once." I shouted angrily at him, when we saw that he had captured the Turk, Elena and Yuffie.
After all this time, he's still looking for a bride, like he has nothing better to do. It so happens that the Shinra are interested in getting him as well, for he had spilled the beans on them before. He really makes me burn a fuse as I can't stand men like him. He managed to escape us. We 'joined' forces with Reno and Rude as they wanted to save Elena as much as we wanted to save Yuffie. The trail led to the Danchao Statues outside town. We split up till we ambushed Don Corneo. But before the Turks arrived, the Don set his pet Rapus, on us. Rapus was a flying terror; it looked like a dragon only smaller and skinnier. We gave it all we got, and got rid of him just like that. The Turks finally arrived and finished Don Corneo off. Not long after, back at Yuffie's, she returned all our materia and only then she realized we had extras and asked for some.
"You can but you'll have to promise not to steal again, same goes to your father, Godo." I was strict with her.
She faced the floor and twitched suddenly facing the door to her basement. Naz had emerged with Red but still had his helmet off. Yuffie blushed when she saw him and all of us in turn stared at the two. They were the youngest in the group, and would lookout for each other.
"It's time for you to conquer the pagoda, Yuffie, they're waiting for you." I patted her on the shoulder.
She nodded and followed us to the pagoda. We were amazed at her strength as she conquered three floors of the pagoda in record time. She was exhausted at the end of the third fight. Barret carried her back to Godo's house for her to rest. I stayed with her till she fell asleep and when I left, Naz took the second shift. The next morning, I checked the room to find Naz asleep and Yuffie was missing! We searched everywhere for her, except the pagoda. Naz and I rushed over to find Staniv beaten and a commotion going on the top floor. Yuffie was in the midst of a battle with Godo! BAM! Both fell to the floor panting. She had won! I helped her up and the whole party marched in. Godo was proud of his daughter and asked to speak with her privately. All went down except me, but kept out of sight. Godo expects Yuffie to take our materia when the war is over. I flew in the room unexpectedly and scolded them both. They gave in and I left the room with Yuffie. Before we left, Godo presented her with the Leviathan summon materia.
"Now we have to head back to the Gold Saucer to get the Keystone from Dio and for the main event, the date scene." I murmured in my head.
Who will Cloud pick and who will date who? All will happen at the Gold Saucer. As we left Wutai, monsters and enemies poured at us like rain.
"Naz, let's give it to 'em," I signaled to him.
He understood and we cleared a path for us to get through, but half-way more crashed in. We used our limit breaks, Naz used his favorite "Flying Death" where his sickle flew in the sky with a deadly glow, spun like a top and slashed every monster in sight to bits. "Elemental Spring...!" I yelled as an orange aura surrounded me and let go arrows by the dozen, elemental based, fire, earth, and water combined as one. All the arrows showered the monsters as they caved in on us. The coast was clear, we made a run for the Tiny Bronco but we had to pass the canopy bridges. Barret and Red XIII used Stardust Ray and Satellite Beam as diversions to throw of the enemies.
"Finally, we made it ... shove off captain," Tifa panted. Cid started the engine and we were off.
"Oh, there's someone I need to pick up." I murmured under my breath.
I whispered to Naz, who wasn't keen on flying to accompany me. I took out an invisible jet pack and strapped it on him.
"We'll meet you at the Rope station, got to pick up someone as it's a special night, tonight," I vaguely explained trying my best not to embarrass myself again. Cloud shrugged his shoulders and I steadied Naz as we floated upwards.
Sparkling dust surrounded me once more and within a few seconds we vanished.
"They can fly?!! Why the ^@#% didn't anyone tell me?!!" he yelled and nearly falling overboard. Everyone other than Red, Cloud and Aerith stared in awe at the sight. "No one asked," Red answered calmly.
