Howdy everyone! Okay okay don't hate me I'm sorry. I know the way I ended my last chapter it leaves those big questions out there. How did the battle end and what happened to everyone else? Believe me ALL will be answered in time. May not be soon but it will be done. Anyway the good news is that the story is going to get more exciting now that I've finally managed to make it to this point. It took me forever! Just when you think That the ending was near BAM! I create a whole new thing.

I must warn you though. From this point on the story will be focused primarily on Yuffie and what happens to her for quite some time. I'm sorry for all of you out there who don't like Yuffie (But from my reviews it seems everyone does anyway) And I'm sorry that your favorite characters won't be in for a while...... if at all, depends on how I decide to write it.

Chapter 22- Waking Up To A Different World

"Wh-what?" Yuffie wasn't sure if she heard right. Yuffie closed her eyes as they began to feel sore.

"You're under Midgar. You've been in a coma for about two months." The person repeated again. Yuffie can tell by the voice the person is a man.

Yuffie opens her eyes. Slowly her vision begins to clear and she's able to see who she is talking to. One of them is a man, he's 5'9" and about one-hundred seventy pounds. He has black hair and brown eyes. He's about twenty-five. He looks mildly built and he's wearing a black muscle shirt and camouflage pants.

The other person that's standing in the room is a girl. She's around 5'5" and about one-hundred twenty pounds. She has short brown hair and brown eyes. She looks like she's twenty years old. She's wearing a black T-Shirt and blue jean shorts.

Yuffie gives them a confused look, "How'd I get here?"

The woman stepped forward, "We don't know. All we know is that a chocobo carried you to Midgar, before we were forced down here. We took you with us because you couldn't very well take care of yourself." She spoke friendly.

The man nodded his head. He grabbed a chair and sat down on the side of Yuffie's bed, "So do you remember what happened to you?" He asked as if he were a curious little child.

Yufie's eyes glaze over as she thinks about the battle. She remembers fighting Dregon. She remembers being sent flying through the air by his power and she remembers seeing the boulder before she crashed into it.

Yuffie blinked out of her daydream and looked at her audience, "I was in a battle on the central continent. My friends and a small group of other people had to fight an army." Yuffie explained as she thinks, 'What happened to my friends?'

The man and woman both share a look before turning back around to Yuffie. The man gave Yuffie a look as if he's deep in thought, "Did this battle take place near Cosmos Canyon?" He asks a bit hesitant. Yuffie slowly nods her head.

The woman aside gasped in shock, "That would mean you fought in the Battle of Cosmos!" She exclaimed.

"Huh?" Yuffie felt confused now. What was the woman talking about.

"I see... you must have been hurt really bad in combat so you don't know what's changed." The man said suddenly. Yuffie didn't say anything, she just stares at him signally him to continue. The man cleared his throat, "The Battle of Comos.." The man paused for a secound.

"The Battle of Cosmos is the epic battle that started it all. The first battle that happened before our world was forced into hiding by Vain. The Battle of Cosmos is remembered by how just a small amount of people fought off a large zombie army. It is said that no one had survived the battle and that the dead are now just part of Vain's army." The man took a deep breath after he exclaimed.

"No-nobody survived?" Yuffie asks afraid of what that could mean.

The man shrugged his shoulders, "It's what I heard, but if you're alive, others could be too."

The woman nodded her head, "We told you you're underground. Well the truth is, this is now the base for the Liberators." She exclaimed. Yuffie just gives a blank look, clearly not understanding. The woman sighed as she realized she'd have to explain this to her.

"The Liberators are one of many small resistance factions that formed throughout the world after the Battle of Cosmos. We fight against any zombies that we find and try to find a way to free the world from Vain's grasp. We form battle plans and fight off any enemies. Unfortunately, most of the people in the Liberators are young rookies just learning how to fight." Yuffie slowly nods her head getting the gist of things.

"So who are you two?" Yuffie finally asked.

The woman smiled, "My name is Mika Brundel." Mika's real name is actually Michael. After the Battle of Cosmos she was forced into hiding along with many others underneath Midgar. She's now part of the resistance group The Liberators. Not a skilled warrior, Mika has been put in charge of taking care of the sick and wounded.

The man nodded his head, "And I'm her older brother Kao" Mika's older brother. Like his younger sister, Kao was forced underground to hide from Vain's army. Soon after Kao joined the newly formed resistance group The Liberators. Although Kao is a rookie when it comes to combat, he shows great potential and exceptional skill. Him along with many others protect the hidden base whenever an attack happens and they also form attacks of their own.

"So who are you?" Mika asks.

"Me? I'm Yuffie Kisasagi" Yuffie said proudly.

The two backed up in surprise, "Wow you're Wutianease? I thought they were all dead!" Mika exclaimed impressed.

"Wait a minute!" Kao yelled out surprised by something. Yuffie and Mika both gave him a strange look, Kao mouth is slightly hung open, "Are you THE Yuffie Kisasagi!? The one that was part of the group AVALANCHE two years ago?" He asked in disbelief.

Yuffie gave a grin as she nods her head, "I was sure that no one knew we did that" Yuffie said a bit cheerful.

"Wow so like the people that fought at the Battle of Cosmos was none other then AVALANCHE! How are they anyway?" Mika said impressed and happy to be talking to one of the strongest warriors out there.

Yuffie hung her head, "I don't know. Two of my friends are dead I know that. I need to leave and search for them." She spoke in despair.

Kao sighed hating to give bad news, especially to someone who just woke up from one hell to into another one. "You won't be able to get far I'm afraid." Kao said regretfully.

Yuffie looked up at him confused, "What do you mean?"

"Many of the towns are destroyed. Midgar is one of a few that has survived. No one is safe during the day or night because during the day zombies walk about and at night... not only are there zombies but there's these shadow demons. We managed to find a way to kill the zombies but whatever those shadow demons are, we just can't find a way."

Yuffie frowned knowing she has no place to go now, "Those shadow demons are actually called Hadions. My friends and I found out that the only way to kill them is with light."

The news brought a smile to both Mika's and Kao's faces, "Well I'm glad we have someone who knows what their doing!" Mika said cheerfully. She walked up to Yuffie bed and grabbed hold of her hands, "Why don't you join us? we could use your help."

Yuffie glances over to Kao to see what he thinks. Kao nods his head in agreement, "Yes, we could definitely use the help of an AVALANCHE member."

Yuffie bit her bottom lip in thought. Should she stay and help? What about her friends? Maybe she'll find them staying with these people, after all Kao said that there's only a few towns left. Yuffie turned back to Mika's hopeful face. Yuffie gave a small smile.

"Alright"

And so Yuffie's life with the resistance group The Liberators starts. Maybe with Yuffie's help they can find a way to beat Vain and his army.

WELLLL that's it y'all! I know y'all are probably still pissed at me for the last chapter. But I did that for a reason actually for a few. And here they are *Pulls List out*

1)This makes it so you readers out there don't know if AVALANCHE is alive or not.

2)I wanted you to be just like Yuffie and not know where her friends are.

3)While reading along you'll find more details out when Yuffie does.

4)I believe that it goes along with the story quite well.

And finally) I'm the author I get to do what I want.

Well Everyone I hoped you enjoyed that chapter but believe me the next one is going to be longer and it will be much better. Yuffie has to try and adjust to the new world. Will she find her friends? Or are they already dead? Believe me ya won't be finding out for a while yet. Now if y'all want a new chapter up soon review! (J/K The next chapter should be up in a couple of hours) TTNC!
