Chapter 17
Before the sun had rosen above the horizont,Sephiroth,Reno and Rude arrived at the bordering river
of Gold Saucer area and Gongaga.It would take only few hours to reach Gongaga from there.They
were crossing the bridge when they saw a dead guard lying on it.
-Mister mysterious has been here...,Reno said.
-Ugly.I could've done that in less messy way,Rude told.
Sephiroth hadn't anything to add.He had killed more people than the Turks,but still their ways to
act seemed too brutal.
-Do you think he's heading to town of Gongaga?he asked.
-He won't make it to Cosmo Area if he doesn't go there.He's probably out of equipments.And gasoline.
-Why hasn't Shinra come to help?
-Why would they come?They have no idea where we are.
-Then who are those fellows following us?Rude asked.
-Let's ask them.
Garundi,Capri and Kass had woken up when the mysterious man had escaped.Bubba had ordered them to
go assist Reno,Rude and Sephiroth.Sephiroth was kind of reliefed,because now he knew that Capri
wasn't the bad guy.
After they had explained why they were there,they all decided to split the group into two.The other
party would head in direction of Cosmo Canyon while the other one would go to Gongaga first.Slithead
or whoever the man was,would have no chance of escaping.Sephiroth left towards Cosmo Canyon with
Capri and Kass while Garundi accompanied Reno and Rude.

Gongaga had changed a lot after the explosion of the reactor.Only a trace of a busy town could be
seen.Piles of rubbish were surrounding it,waiting to be buried.The people who had wanted to stay
there had now built their houses stronger,even if there wasn't a reactor anymore.Some people were
walking on the road in groups and no one was alone,even in the graveyard,because the ruins of the
reactor gave monsters a great place to be born and to live.
Bubba's van had been parked near the town entrance.Garundi decided to take a look and went to open
the door.
-Watch out,god damn it!!Reno shouted and rushed towards Garundi,pushing him away from the car just
in time.
Garundi hadn't noticed a wire that had been attached to the door.The other head was attached to a
grenade that had been taped on the car floor.The grenade exploded and the van was quickly trashed.
The darkened windows shattered into millions of pieces and the interior caught fire.People of the
town arrived there fastly.They remembered the day when the reactor blew up clearly and were afraid
that something similar had happened.
-Thanks...are you alright?Garundi asked from Reno who was lying there,his face in blood.
-It's just a flesh wound...how didn't you guess it was a trap?A wanted criminal wouldn't leave his
car in such an open place,for everyone to investigate.
-Reno,Rude interrupted.-We'd better head to the Cosmo Area,because they might need help.You stay in
here because you're not clearly in condition to come with us.
-C'mon man...Reno said and tried to rise,but noticed soon that his leg wasn't alright when he fell
down again.
-Garundi.Let's go!

Meanwhile,the others reached the forest surrounding the river between Gongaga and Cosmo Area.
-We are supposed to find him from here?Are you sure we shouldn't give up?Capri asked.
-You read the rules when you came to Shinra,right?Rule number 17 was:Always complete the most
important task first.I guess this is classified important enough.
-Come on people...someone has obviously walked in here,Kass said,leading Sephiroth and Capri to the
forest.
-I've been here before,Sephiroth told.-It was during the war when I was with a supply truck.Back
then, there was a road of some kind.There were two bridges,that led to the other side through a
little island located in the widest part of the river.I bet he's going there.
-Let's hurry.Giddiyap!
The bridges were soon in their sight,when the chocobos ran there with an incredible speed.When they
were crossing the first bridge,they cut a wire without noticing it.Soon,a bomb went off,causing the
bridge to collapse.Kass fell to the wildly streaming river with his chocobo and plunged below the
surface.They waited for him to reappear for few minutes,before Rude arrived with Garundi.
-What happened in here?Rude asked.
-Where is Kass?
-I'm sorry,Garundi,but Kass fell down there.I'm afraid that he is dead...,Sephiroth said.
-Noo!That...that son-of-a-bitch!!Kass was my best mate...Thor Slithead will pay!!!

I could use them somehow.The upcoming chapters will show how.
