(ooo I'm churning chapters out like crazy now… thas kewl. I hope you like this chapter…. Don't get mad at me for not finishing though. It's the way that I wanted it to go)
It seemed that as soon as the Highwind was boarded they were at the North Crater. AS the High wind was anchored Barret, Red, and Cid realized that Cloud was gone. None of the crew of the Highwind could find him.
The group of three, along with the bustle of crew, was searching throughout the entire ship.
"You know Cloud could be anywhere?" Cid asked.
"Yeah I know." Red said.
"Yeah but I have a really good idea where." Barret said.
"Where?" Cid asked excitedly.
"Come on follow me."
As Barret hurriedly made his way through all of the open area, in the ship, and into the chocobo stables. Barret looked around and saw Cloud sitting behind a pile of boxes.
He felt their presence and stood up, and turned around. He gave a little smirk and asked, "So we're at the Crater?"
"yeah we are. Are you…" Barret started to say before being cut off by Cloud.
"Yes I am Barret. We have to go down to where Sephiroth was at on our last battle."
They shook their heads and all ran out the door, up the steps, and jumped off the Highwind landing around 15 feet away from the Highwind. As soon as their feet was firmly on the ground they began running as fast as they could, towards the inside of the Crater. As they went down the Crater they noticed the destruction from 'Holy' almost instantly.
They ran throughout the pathways of the remaining Crater. Within minutes they saw the area where Sephiroth was fought. They ran down to it feeling the presence of pure evil.
A slight flash caught the eye of Cloud. He jerked his head to look for the slight flash and there it was. It was the 'Holy materia'. It was just lying there, on the ground, in all its beauty.
Cloud walked to it and picked it up examining it. A tear quickly formed in Cloud's eye, and fell down his face to the ground.
"Aeris," Cloud whispered to him self, "why did you have to give up everything."
As Cloud stood there staring into the materia, Barret, Red 13, and Cid continued looking fokr any signs of evidence. Then they saw something on the edge of where 'Holy' was released. They all ran over to it trying to find out what it was.
"Cloud snap out of it an come over here." Barret said hurriedly.
Cloud barely snapped out of the trance he was in but when he did, he ran over to them. He saw where they were looking and he looked down and saw a body.
So Cloud pulled the body from where it was and he realized it was the body of…
(thought I was going to tell you yet… just wait and find out.)
