RECAP: Aeris came down stairs slowly from a daze. "Yuffie left this note." Aeris said handing it to Cloud. Cloud scanned it. "She's left. I didn't mean fro her to take what I said to heart!" Cloud said shamefully. "She also left with all of our materia." Barret reminded. "My Bahamut!" Cloud whispered. "We gotta find her!" Cloud declared firmly. "But we don't know where she went!" Aeris said with tears down her face. Tifa looked down. "Does anybody know where her hometown is?" Tifa asked. Everyone looked down. "Wutai." Vincent whispered from the corner where he stood in thought. "W-What? How do you know?" Cloud asked suspiciously. "The smell of her blood is Wutaineise (sp?). It's a start." Vincent replied. "You can smell blood?" Cid asked disgusted. Vincent nodded. "I don't understand. Why would Yuffie leave?! I mean she was hurt by what Cloud said and all but I talked to her afterwards and she seemed fine!" Tifa said confused. Vincent remained silent. 'Yuffie...' he thought numbly.

"Character speaking" 'Character thoughts'
Yuffie the next morning...
Yuffie was riding a gold chocobo that she bought from Duo at the Gold Saucer. 'Why is life so unfair? I don't know what to do anymore. I thought that Vincent was the only person to understand me, but it looks like I was wrong. I should have never gotten that close to them. I always end up getting hurt. Godo better be happy about the materia I am bringing Wutai. It cost me the only people that I ever considered friends. Some friends they turned out to be. Who knows, it was probably because of me that this all happened. Why can't I learn to shut up and stop thinking about myself all the time? I shouldn't have said those things to Vincent. I just got so mad at him taking the blame for something that Hojo and Lucrecia did. It wasn't his fault at all. If she loved Vincent at all then she wouldn't have married Hojo. She didn't even love her son enough to consider what their experiments would do to him. I just wish there was someway that I could convince Vincent that it wasn't his fault. Who am I kidding; he probably hates me for the things that I said to him.'
She crossed the ocean on her way to Wutai, still upset at the incident between her and Vincent. "Gosh, I got to stop thinking about him. Its not like I'm in love with him!" Yuffie gasped at the ridiculous words that came out of her mouth. Her inner voice countered. "No way! That is not possible. I haven't even known him long enough. The voice laughingly prosecuted her; 'And yet here you are having an argument with yourself about being in love with Vincent.' "Gosh, I am really losing it." She decided to drop the subject, her conscience agreed, and concentrated on her destination.
Meanwhile...
Cloud and the rest of Avalanche were in the Tiny Bronco, headed to Wutai.
"Now I understand why you named it the Tiny Bronco, Cid. I don't know how we all managed to fit in a plane that was made for four people." Barret grumbled, who was stuck with Cid and Tifa on his lap. Cid looked at Barret and grunted.
"Do you think that I am anymore f$%#ing comfortable than you are?! I can't f$%#ing feel my ass."
Tifa just sat there quietly and stared at the scene in front of her. Aeris was seated on Cloud's lap while he was steering and both seemed at ease with their positions. They had a very uncomfortable Vincent sitting next to them. He was entirely squished against the side of the seat. Tifa almost laughed at him but stopped herself from doing so. 'I have no idea how he managed to fit in that tiny space. It must have been even worse when Yuffie had to sit on his lap. Yuffie? Why did she leave like that? I thought we had come to an understanding. Something else must have happened that we don't know about, but what? The last person to see her was Vincent. Wait! Did something happen between those two that made her want to leave? I guess I will ask him about it later. If he did anything to hurt her, I am going to pound his head in.'
Meanwhile with Yuffie...
"Finally, I made it home." Yuffie steered the gold chocobo, that she named Lucky, to a chocobo stable hidden behind her house. After she put Lucky in a stable, she fed her cats and walked towards the Pagoda. When she approached the entrance, she saw Gorki standing outside. "Hey Gorki, have you seen Godo. I need to speak with him." Gorki looked surprised to see her and said,
"Yea, he is at home right now. Welcome back home Yuffie. It's been a while since I last saw you." Yuffie smiled and replied, "Thanks Gorki. Yea, it has been a while since I have been back home. Well, I am going to talk to Godo. I will talk to you later, ok."
She walked into Godo's house and found him napping in his room. 'What a lazy idiot, he is sleeping instead of being at the Pagoda, like he is supposed to be.' She snickered to herself and then yelled, "Wow, look a mastered Knights of the Round materia!" Godo jumped up like a little kid and hastily uttered, "Where, where is it? I have always wanted one of those."
Yuffie looked at him and laughed. She laughed so hard that her sides started to ache. After she finished laughing, Godo looked upset. She stood back up and said, "I knew that would wake you up." Godo grumbled,
"There are other more polite ways of waking someone up." She laughed and said,
"Where is the fun in that?"
Godo walked down the hall and sat in the library. He looked at Yuffie and said, "Well, now that I am awake, why don't you tell me of your progress. What kind of materia did you bring back?" Yuffie visibly stiffened at his questions and said, "Is that all you have to say? Where is the 'Hi Yuffie. How are you? Did you have a safe journey?'? I don't even know why I continue to put up with all of this. All you seem to care about is how much damn materia I can bring back, no matter how much it may cost me. I can see coming back was a mistake. I was better off on my own, as always. You can find someone else to get materia for you because I am not doing it anymore. Now get up and come to the Pagoda. I want to complete my training by defeating you. When I have finished I will leave this place and if I ever return, it will be only to visit."
After she finished talking, she walked out of Godo's house and went to the Pagoda to await him.
Gorki saw Yuffie approaching the Pagoda and said. "Wow, that was quick. What can I do for you Yuffie?" Yuffie smiled at Gorki and cheerily commanded, "Go and tell the others to prepare for the trial. I am completing my training today. After I am done, I will be leaving again. I have to stop Sephiroth and Shinra before more people die at their hands. I will do it alone if that's what it comes down to." Gorki looked shocked at Yuffie's statement and said, "Are you sure you want to do this? Many people have tried to stop Sephiroth and Shinra before, and nobody has been able to yet." Yuffie looked Gorki in the eyes and said, "It is my responsibility as a ninja to fight evil in all shapes and sizes. I can no longer sit by and let things continue the way they are. After I defeat Shinra and Sephiroth, I will start a new life on my own. I will not return to Wutai to live but I will stop in to visit every now and then. Now go and prepare yourself. I will await Godo here and then I will be start." Gorki bowed to Yuffie and went inside to tell the others to prepare themselves for the trial.
After waiting endless minutes, Godo finally appeared and ascended to the top floor of the Pagoda. Yuffie followed him inside calmly, and practiced her skills, throwing sharp ninja stars and getting used to the weight of her armor again. Yuffie entered the room in which Gorki would challenge her.
"Yuffie, you have challenged the Pagoda of the nine gods (I have no idea if that is right or not!); your thirst for fight will not be unanswered." Yuffie looked at Gorki with calm, but piercing steel gray eyes. Grasping for her main star, she moved her legs apart in an offensive stance. He looked in surprise, and finally noticed this was not the young girl he taught ages ago.
Yuffie defeated Gorki with ease. He was surprised at how much she had improved. She even used some techniques he had never seen before. Yuffie continued to surprise all of the fighters of the Pagoda. She defeated them without much effort at all. She was a little nervous about fighting her father but she kept it well hidden.
Yuffie walked up the stairs to the final battle with Godo. 'I wonder what he will do when he sees my special technique that I have developed just for this occasion. Ha, he will probably faint when he see that I am using a sword in the next battle. I hope all of the practice and training that I put myself through will pay off. I cannot lose now. I have come to far.'
Yuffie pulled out a sword that she had strapped to her back. She smiled and said, "I thought I would fight with my sword for a change. I think you will be surprised." She got in a battle stance that none of the fighters have ever seen before. Godo looked at Yuffie with confusion and clearly asked; "What form of battle is this? I have never seen it before. Where did you learn it?" Yuffie smirked and, as if to mock him, answered.
"The reason you have never seen it before is because I have developed this technique on my own. It took me four years to perfect it. And now is the best time to introduce you all to it. Your first and most fatal mistake was underestimating me. I took all of the knowledge and techniques of the ninja and mastered them by the age of 13. I was holding back in the other battles, now prepare yourself." Godo looked up in disbelief, shock written across his features. She grinned triumphantly and charged.
The battle lasted about five minutes before Godo was defeated and Yuffie was declared the winner. Godo looked older and more brittle then before.
'How could she have defeated me so easily? It must be because of her brother. She must have inherited some of the same fighting capabilities, or it was because of Hojo's experiments. She truly is a force to be reckoned with. I should have been more understanding and not treated her so bad. I never really gave her a chance to prove herself. I was trusted to raise her as my own but I failed terribly. Maybe one day she will forgive me.' Godo stood up and motioned the others to leave. He turned back to Yuffie after they left and said, "So now that your training is complete, where are you headed?" Yuffie looked at Godo and said,
"I am going to stop Sephiroth and Shinra once and for all. After that I will travel the world until I find a place that I belong." Godo looked down ashamed at himself. He looked back up at Yuffie with sad eyes and said,
"I'm sorry for everything that I did to you, Yuffie. I never really gave you a chance to prove yourself. I didn't treat you the way that you deserved to be. I treated you like a servant rather than a daughter. I know I am not you real father but you will always be my child. Maybe one day I will be able to earn your forgiveness. I wish you luck and a safe journey. Remember, if you ever need somewhere to stay, you are always welcome here." Yuffie smiled and said,
"Thank you. I will visit again soon; you can count on that." Godo interrupted her and mumbled,
"Before you leave there is something I want to give you." He pulled out a manual and a material. He held them out to her and said, "This is a manual to help you learn a ninja's final and ultimate technique. It is called All Creation. There has only been one person to ever master this technique and that was 500 years ago. I believe you will have no trouble learning it. I also have this Leviathan summon materia. It has been passed down through the Kisargi family and it is now yours. Use it well. Sayonara, musume." Yuffie took the items and placed them in her pouch at her waist. She bowed to Godo and dramatically waved, "Outosan, sayonara."
Yuffie exited the Pagoda and then froze. Cloud was there alone. "Hey!" Cloud yelled angrily running toward her. Yuffie's eyes widened and she dodged Cloud and ran into town. Cloud stopped himself before hitting the ground. "Why did everyone have to stay at the end?! Now I gotta get her on my own!" Cloud grumbled and ran after Yuffie.
Cloud entered the town. "What is it?!" Aeris asked noticing Cloud in panic. "I found Yuffie! Come on!" Cloud yelled everyone ran out of the inn. "We'll split up. Aeris and Me," Tifa looked down. "Vincent and Barret-." "Actually, Cloud I'd like to go with Vincent." Tifa interrupted. Vincent looked at her questioningly and Cloud frown. "That sounds fine!" Aeris said smiling sensing it had something to do with Yuffie. "O-okay, Barret and Cid, and then Red XIII and Cait Sith." Cloud finished.
"Come on stuffed animal." Red XIII muttered. "Hey! I resent that!" Cait Sith yelled after Red XIII. "Alright 'Mr. Barret'. Let's go." Cid said imitating Aeris. Barret frowned. "Who you calling mister?! Foo'!" Barret snapped storming forward.
Tifa waited a while after they started around town. "Okay, I get the feeling you didn't just ask for me for no reason." Vincent said. Tifa nodded. "What happened between you and Yuffie?" Tifa asked. "N-nothing happened." Vincent said defensively. "Vincent, you stuttered. That's a big step for you." Tifa said. Vincent growled. "Vincent, you were the last to see Yuffie before she ran away." Tifa said fiercely.
Vincent looked away. "We had an argument." He said. Tifa stayed quiet waiting for him to continue. "S-she insulted Lucrecia. Saying that Lucrecia was at fault for what happened to herself and Hojo. She didn't know Lucrecia! What an angel she was!" Vincent said. Tifa gave a dry smile. "No offense Vincent but it gets sickening hearing you always go on about you're to blame." Tifa interjected and Vincent looked thoughtful before giving a slight shrug.
"What happened when Yuffie said this?" Tifa asked. "Well," Vincent said hesitant to continue, "I shoved her and m-my claw cut her accidentally when I shoved her-!" Tifa whole body started shaking with deep rage. "You did what?!" she screamed in a voice loud enough to be heard all over the town. "I know it was wrong but-!" Before he could talk more Tifa's hand went across his face and she was ready to beat him up. Suddenly four pairs of arms wrapped around Tifa trying to tug her off but it was useless until another pair of hands joined. Tifa was dragged off Vincent. "It's your fault she left!" Tifa spat at Vincent accusingly.
Author's Note: Ah hah! Finally, I got a cliffhanger! What will happen to Yuffie if she is caught? Will the others be able to keep Tifa from kicking Vinnie's butt? You will have to come back and see. I have to give a special thanks to Relena55. She has written some very important parts of this story. She is the one who wrote the cliffhanger part. It wouldn't be the same without her help and creativity. Ninab001 has added and corrected some of my very terrible grammar. I also need to thank Shadow Reaver and MariSugar. They have helped me correct a lot of my mistakes. So please give them your thanks and read the stories they have available. Arigatou minna. For those of you that don't know what that means, it is Japanese and it means 'Thanks everyone!'
