Sorry it took me so long to update. I've been really busy and I've been working on other stories. So once again, sorry.
The night that the boys had arrived at Nibelheim was extremely cold for it being summer time. They had parked the Highwind on the top of the mountain near the old mako reactor, which hadn't been harvesting make for the two years since the defeat of Shinra. Which was Barrets dream.
There they stood in front of the Shinra mansion. Cloud knew what they was looking for, but he wans't alone. Vincent knew too, but the others had to be told. Which they would know when they all got in there.
Cloud walked up to the cold and unforgiving cast-iron doors. He just stared at them like he was trying to decide his next plan of action. The boys just stood there staring at Cloud while he pondered his strength. Cloud then with no signs of warning reached up and grabbed the door handle and began to pull.
He was successful in opening the door. Upon opening it a rush of ice cold air swept out of the mansion and sent shrills up his spine. He could just think of what would be found within the depths of the mansion. The only thing he knew is that it would change both his and Vincent's lives.
He waved the guys forward to enter the mansion. They slowly stepped forward to the door and eventually into the mansion.
The halls were cold and dreary. Untouched by anyone, for two straight years. The farther into the mansion they got, the colder it became. When finally they reached the stair case that led down to the library.
Cloud opened the stair well and began to walk down while beginning to explain what was to be found. "As you know I am a clone of Sephiroth. Well so is Vincent. When we get down to the library look for anything about us or cloning experiments."
They all just shook their heads and kept on walking. All of them quiet as they descended down the stair case. They could hear creaks from the house itself.
When they finally reached the bottom of the stair well they cautiously opened the door to head them to another hallway. This one they knew lead to the library, so they began to walk down it. At first slow but picking up their speed the farther they went.
Vincent was constantly standing right next to Cloud. While everyone else was just where ever they felt comfortable with. Cloud and Vincent felt a bond between each other and they would not let each other take this on their own.
When they reached the door they tried to open it. When they tried it just fell off the hinges and fell to the ground. They just walked over it and began their search for any kind of answers.
Which was short lived. The book that Cloud was looking for was right on the table, just sitting there in plain view. There wasn't even another book around it. Almost as if someone put it there for them to find.
Then out of no where a voice came from the door. Cloud instantly looked and saw nothing but yet everyone heard the voice still. "Cloud and Vincent, I have something for you. It is on the table. Grab it and go."
Cloud walked to the table and grabbed the book that he had pointed to. He just turned back to walked out the door and the mysterious voice said, "Cloud be careful on your quest. Vincent protect Cloud he is the key to unlock everything."
The group just kept on going even hearing that mysterious voice. Cloud didn't care anymore. He just wanted to end this quest, once and for all.
Within a few minutes they were out the front of the mansion standing in the town looking at the Highwind thinking of what to do next. There were a handful of possibilities facing them now.
So they walked to the Highwind and climbed aboard and lifted off not caring what was happening. They had their eyes set on the prize but no real action to speak of.
