Millenia's A/N: wow, have not done this story in a longgggggggggg time! Finally Prexist gave in and worked on it.

Disclaimer: I own nothing, I will never own nothing. I dunt even own this computer :(

The grey-haired man turned away from her and started walking back toward the exit. "Wait!" I yelled out to the grey-haired man, but he did not respond to my calling and just kept walking.

I ran up behind him and placed my hand on his arm to turn him to face me, so I could finally get some answers of why he wanted Cloud. As soon as I grabbed his arm he spun around and grabbed me by my wrist tightly. "It is in you best interest to not get involved with things you were not meant to understand." He said as he threw me to the ground.

I shot back to my feet. "It is when the one you are hunting is one of my closest friends!" I shouted at him and clenched my hands into fists. "You are a fool and that is how you will die." He said as he ran at me. I was ready for him. He tried to hit me with his fists but I easily blocked him. When I got my chance I kicked him in the gut and sent him back.

The creepiest thing was, it didn't faze him at all. Most people when getting hit would have an expression on their face, but he had none. It was almost as if he was a robot with no feeling at all. I cleared my mind of this. This man knew something that neither I nor the rest of Avalanche knew and I had to get it out of him.

I ran back at him, punching toward his face. He raised his arm up to mine and blocked the blow. I then tried to kick his feet out from under him, but he jumped and hit me in the back sending me to the ground. I tried to get up as fast as I could, but he grabbed my arm and started to swing me around in the air. He the through me against the wall, but I was lucky enough to have my feet bounce against the wall. I landed in a crouching position. As soon I as looked up there he was. But this time he had a gun pointed at my face.

I was so scared, even when we were going against Meteor I knew we could handle it. Going against Sephiroth, I knew Cloud could defeat him. I didn't want to die knowing that Cloud was in danger and that the world was most likely in danger as well. I closed my eyes, a tear running down my left cheek.

"What the hell?" I heard his curse out as a ninja star took out his gun. I looked up and didn't see what had caused it. I saw the grey-haired man looking around furiously. Then out of no where someone pounced on him, sending him away from me.

"You ok Tifa? I heard a young female voice ask. A smile went across my face. "Yeah thanks Yuffie." I said as she stretched out a hand to helped me up. "Ok let's take down this guy!" She said turning around to find he was gone. "Where did he go?" I asked looking around. There was no way someone could move that fast.

Yuffie had folded her arms over her chest. "I bet he was just to scared of me and ran off!" She said. I just shook my head and smiled. "Have you spoken with any of the others?" I asked her. She shook her head in a yes. "I saw Cid earlier. These nasty creatures were attacking Rocket Town. He was lucky I was passing by. As for everyone else no." She said.

"I have a very bad feeling about all of this." I told her. "That man I was fighting with, he was looking for Cloud. I tried to ask him what he wanted him with, but he wouldn't say." I looked at the ground feeling almost helpless. Why couldn't Cloud just keep his PHS on? Yuffie placed her hand on my shoulder. "It will be ok. Those creeps couldn't take down spiky in a million years." She said, trying to cheer me up and it worked a bit.

"Thanks Yuffie." I then felt my PHS vibrate. I immediately answered it. "Hello?" I said into it. There was no answer. "Hello, who is it?" I asked again. "Thank god your alright Tifa." The voice came from the phone. My eyes went wide.

"Cloud? Oh my god, These people are looking for you? Are you alright? Are you hurt? Where are you?" I asked him. I could feel my heart pounding a thousand beats a second. Yuffie stared at me, waiting to hear what Cloud had to say.

"Listen Tifa, I can't tell you much. I am fine, I just need you to call everyone and tell them to be cautious. And please don't look for me." Was the last thing he said before line was lost. I looked down at the PHS. No dammit, I tried to redial the number, but it said that the number was no longer in service.

"What happened? What did he say?" Yuffie asked me. "He said to call everyone to tell them to be cautious. He also said not to look for him." I said throwing the PHS on the ground.

"Well, who says we need to listen to him?" Yuffie asked me, with a sly smile on her face. "Let's find him and beat him up for making us worry!" I shook my head. "I am not sure about that." I told her. Yuffie stood in front of me and placed both of her hands on my shoulders. "Tifa what if he really is in danger? He may need our help, but just doesn't want to get us involved. And besides he is getting my help if he likes it or not." She said as she started to walk off a bit.

I knew she was right and it would make me feel much better knowing he is fine where he is, than to worry about him. "Yuffie." I called out to her. She turned around and looked at me. "I am coming too." She smiled and gave me a thumbs up.
