Final Fantasy VII rights Squaresoft does own; I do not. Please RandR, or may Sephiroth take your soul. This chapter is even longer than the last one, so watch out. And by the way, the hidden door in the Chocobo Stable mentioned about half way through doesn't exist, so it's not worth looking for.
Someone emailed me asking me why I spell it "Nivelheim" instead of "Nibelheim". I've just always done that out of habit. It makes it look more evil with a "v" instead of a "b". Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.
The Dance of the Chocobos: This Scene Needs Some Rufus!
So the director, who's getting pretty fed up with all the distractions by now, turns to Sephiroth and says, "Why don't you take your little party elsewhere?" Well, Sephiroth simply wouldn't take this kind of back talk, being the... uh... something of the world...
Hold on. I'll remember what it was in a minute...
So where we left off, Cloud and the others were asleep in the old woman's house, except for Angael, who was sleeping comfortably outside in a dumpster.
In Cloud's dream:
Disembodied voice: ...That reminds me.
Cloud's voice: You again? ...Who are you?
Disembodied voice: ...You'll find out soon. ...But more importantly, 5 years ago...
Cloud's voice: 5 years ago... Nivelheim?
Disembodied voice: When you went to Mt. Nivel then, Tifa was your guide, right?
Cloud's voice: Yeah... I was surprised. I never expected Tifa to have an Adult's Only escort service. I'm still not quite sure what those odd grunts coming from the other soldier's rooms were. Sephiroth just sat there shaking his head, the soldier that was with us just kind of shook his head...
Disembodied voice: But where was Tifa other than that?
Cloud's voice: ...I dunno.
Disembodied voice: It was a great place for you two to see each other again.
Cloud's voice: ...You're right.
Disembodied voice: Duh! I live in your head! Of course you're going to agree with me!
Cloud's voice: Oh.
Disembodied voice: Now, why couldn't you see each other alone?
Cloud's voice: ...I don't know. I can't remember clearly...
Disembodied voice: Why don't you try asking Tifa?
Cloud's voice: ...Yeah.
Disembodied voice: Then, get up!
Tifa's voice: Hey wake up. Wake up, Cloud!
Outside of Cloud's dream:
As Cloud is waking up, he spots Tifa hovering above him, her cleavage right in his face.
Cloud::groggy: Hey, when'd we get to the Grand Canyon?
Tifa: Fresh!
Tifa smacks Cloud.
Disembodied vioce: Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!
Gah! Overly used humor! Must... resist... killing...!
Cloud: Tifa... When Sephiroth and I went to Nivelheim, where were you?
Tifa: ...We saw each other, right?
Cloud: The other time.
Tifa: I was... uh... taking care of that... err... soldier in... the...t.ent...
Cloud: No, no, no. The OTHER time.
Tifa crosses her arms.
Tifa: No... it was 5 years ago. I don't remember. But, something seems strange outside. Cloud, come quick.
Cloud runs outside.
Tifa: Few! That was a close one! Can't let him know about my "other" job...
She runs out after him. Meanwhile, Cloud has arrived in the center of the Junon slums. There's loud fanfares and music playing. Everyone else waits as he and Tifa arrive.
Aerith: I heard that girl regained consciousness.
No one seems to notice that Yuffie is nowhere around. She, however, is down at the beach, sulking.
Yuffie: It's like I'm not even here... sniff I have feelings, too, you know... sniff I'll get them all in the end! Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk...
Poor Yuffie. That's the trouble with being an optional character. Anyways, as Yuffie is sitting on the beach by herself, gloating about some unknown plan, the others are still discussing... things...?
Tifa: Doesn't it seem a little strange? Everything getting so noisy all of a sudden...?
Barret: Those ShinRa foos musta heard I wuz comin', and are throwin' one last bash before I blow 'em to bits!
Everyone else: ¬.¬;
Barret: Ah, I mean... Seems like something's goin' on up there!
Crystal::squeal: RUFIE!
Angael: STOP getting ahead of the script! You're gonna ruin everything.
Everyone else: O.O;
Red XIII: Does this have something to do with the ShinRa?
Cloud starts to go up into Priscilla's room, when she bursts out of it.
Cloud: Are you alright now?
Priscilla::drool: Umm... thanks for helping...
The two of them make their way down the stairs. Priscilla keeps trying to grab Cloud's butt, but no one seems to notice except Angael.
Angael: The garlic didn't work!
Priscilla: I'm sorry, I mistook you for one of those ShinRa, Inc. ...
Cloud: That's all right.
Priscilla: I'll give you something SPECIAL! It's an amulet. Take good care of it, ok? When I'm older, you can have my virginity, too::blush:
She hands Cloud the Shiva summon materia. Crystal promptly takes it and pulls out a computer, hooking up a few wires to it.
Cloud: That's sick. I'm too old for you.
Tifa: Besides, he's mine!
Aerith: No, he's mine!
Cloud was ignoring this conversation, of course. Meanwhile, Aerith, Tifa, and Priscilla get into a cat fight. In the end, Tifa and Aerith end up piled upon one another, and Priscilla is standing on top.
Cloud: Crystal, what are you doing?
Crystal: Upgrading your Shiva materia to Final Fantasy X. Then, I'm going to eat it, so I can turn into her for my limit break.
Cloud: But how will we summon her?
Crystal: I'll give you a copy, of course! Your copy won't be upgraded, though.
Cloud: Whatever...
Barret: What's that music? It sure sounds lively.
Angael: For a march.
Barret: Yeah, what she said.
Priscilla is now hanging all over Cloud, who doesn't seem to notice.
Priscilla: I heard they're rehearsing the reception for the new ShinRa president. He's HOT! ...But I hate him...
Crystal: I like her taste in men.
Crystal hands Cloud his materia, then eats her upgraded copy. She flashes blue momentarily. A little blue text box appears that says: Crystal gained level one limit "Morph Shiva"!
Barret: Rufus? I gotta pay my respects.
Angael: Ha ha...
Barret: What?
Angael: Oh, nothing... It sounded like you were talking about a funeral.
Barret: Don't worry. I wuz.
Priscilla: Grandpa and grandma told me this beach was beautiful when they were small. That was back in... oh... 43 B.C. But after the ShinRa built that city above, the sun stopped shining here, and the water got polluted...
Crystal opens her mouth to say something about her theory on the pollution, and how it has generally nothing to do with loss of sun, but Cloud claps his hand over her mouth. Suddenly, Angael starts to tremble, but no one notices.
Priscilla: I was raised on the story and hate ShinRa so much, I could just die.
Angael: Oh, don't let us stop you.
A little blue text box appears that says: Angael gained level one limit "Snotty Remark"!
Angael: Yeah! Now I don't have to be snotty anymore! I got the limit break! WHOOPIE!
She starts to dance around.
:dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance TRIP:
Angael falls flat on her face into the mud.
Angael: Wah... :tear: I wasn't in the mood for a Russian Mud Facial... :sniff:
Yuffie returns from the beach.
Aerith: You think Rufus is thinking about crossing the ocean from here, too?
Yuffie: We have to cross the OCEAN? I'm gonna be sick just thinking about it...
Aerith: What? Does that mean Sephiroth already crossed the ocean?
Crystal, Cloud, and Angael: Sephiroth!
Everyone else: ¬.¬;
Red XIII: Cloud, didn't you finish Rufus off?
Cloud: Ah... no?
Barret: We gotta get to the town up there... Mebbe we could climb the tower.
The clone, who is still inside the Infispace 3000, speaks up.
Clone: Yesss... the tower... Mwa ha ha ha...
Priscilla: No! No! There's a high voltage current running underneath the tower. Don't wander near it, it's dangerous... ah...
She looks towards Aerith and Tifa.
Priscilla::smile: Except you two. You two are immune. Go ahead! Climb the tower.
Everyone else: O.O;
Priscilla: What?
Tifa rolls her eyes.
Priscilla: So anyways, it's electric, but... you might be able to get up there if Mr. Dolphin helps you. Follow me!
She runs down toward the beach.
Tifa: High voltage tower... I guess this means Cloud'll be alright.
Cloud: That's right! ...HEY!
Aerith: Yeah, better leave it to Cloud!
Red XIII: We're counting on you, Cloud.
Cloud shakes his head.
Cloud: Hey!
Everyone starts to walk away.
Cloud: Wait a second!
He goes to talk to them. First, he speaks with Red XIII and Barret.
Red XIII: That looks like a ShinRa soldier.
Cloud pulls out his sword.
Cloud: Where? Lemme at 'im!
Barret: Yeah, I'd like to take a good look at the new President of ShinRa, Inc.!
Suddenly, one of Crystal's rotten eggs hits Barret in the face.
Barret: WHO THE #&#$ THREW THAT?
Yuffie, standing about 20 yards away, is tossing an egg up and down. When Barret looks her away, she hides it behind her back.
Cloud: Barret, you should take more showers. Your body odor is revolting!
Barret: O.O B-but I... Yuffie... she...
Cloud: You shouldn't blame other people for your hygiene problems.
Barret yells over at Yuffie.
Barret: Just wait 'till you fall asleep!
Cloud moves to talk to Tifa and Aerith. He overhears them talking.
Tifa: Don't you just hate this?
Aerith: You're probably right.
Tifa: Right about what?
Aerith: What you just said.
Tifa: Sometimes, you make no sense.
Aerith: Tee hee!
Next, he goes to speak with Angael.
Angael: You'd better hurry. Crystal's getting impatient.
He then wanders over to where Yuffie is standing.
Yuffie: I really didn't mean to hit Barret. I was aiming for Red XIII. I guess I don't have a very good eye for targets...
Cloud: Why do you use shirukens then?
Yuffie: It's hard to miss something huge when your weapons about the size of a bicycle tire.
Cloud finishes by speaking with Crystal.
Crystal: We still have to go through Junon, a long trip on a dangerous vessel, then through Costa del Sol, and encounter in Corel, an endeavor at the Gold Saucer, then on to Gongaga, to Cosmo Canyon for Red XIII's quest, and THEN we can get to Nivelheim. Oh, Vincent... I'll hurry for you. I promise.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the world...
Vincent: Hmm... what is this odd dread from deep within my being::shudder:
X.X; Lucky for Cloud, he didn't hear Crystal's babbling, or the whole journey would have been given away. By the way, no, I didn't have to look at a script to find out what was coming next. I've got the whole game memorized by heart. Did you know that if you get back to the Gold Saucer the second time within six hours and you have Vincent in your party you might be able to get him to take Cloud's place in the snowboarding game? Ah... don't take my word for that. It's a rumor.
Cloud: What are you mumbling about this time?
Crystal has a crazed look in his eye.
Crystal: Mumble mumble! HEE HEE HEE::squeal: Soon... VERY soon...
Cloud: You're scaring me.
Crystal: Good. That means I'm doing my job properly.
Cloud: ¬.¬;
He then runs down to the beach.
Priscilla: Wait a minute.
Barret arrives in time to see the dolphin jump over a metal bar thingy that's attached to the electric tower. He and Cloud "ooh" and "aah".
Barret and Cloud: Ooh! Aah!
See?
Barret: Now ain't that something! I ain't never seen no dolphin jump like that!
The others run in.
Crytal: Double negative alert.
Angael: TRIPLE negative, actually.
Crystal's eyes begin to glow like fire and brimstone.
Crystal: YOU DARE CORRECT ME! I'M THE ONE WRITING THIS STORY!
Angael: I can't help it if the voice of me in your head is completely accurate to who I really am. It's sad that you can entertain yourself with me when I'm NOT EVEN THERE.
Crystal::cries:
Tifa: Barret, what have I told you about using proper grammar?
Barret: I'll use Ebonics if I wanna! Or else...
He shakes his fist angrily.
Tifa: I HOPE you didn't just threaten me, mister!
She takes him across her knee and spanks him.
Aerith: You two have done that before, haven't you?
Tifa: Prep.
Aerith: Slut.
Tifa: Wench!
Aerith: Bitch!
Tifa: WHORE!
Aerith: LOOK WHO'S TALKING!
Priscilla: Pretty cool, huh? When I blow this whistle, Mr. Dolphin jumps for me. Here! This is for you, Cloud! With it, you have both Mr. Dolphin and I under your total control. Just whistle if you need any "personal" favors. :wink:
Aerith and Tifa: PROSTITUTE!
Priscilla: TWO-CENT HOES!
She gives Cloud her whistle. Ya know what, that could be taken to be a dirty remark... ¬.¬,
Cloud: A gift? What am I supposed to do with it?
Priscilla: You weren't listening to me a moment ago, were you? Just go into the water, blow this whistle, and Mr. Dolphin'll jump you to the top of the pole!
Cloud: Jump to the top of the pole?
Disembodied voice: See that rod sticking out at the top? If you jump just right, you can climb to the top of the town.
Cloud starts to nod in agreement.
Barret: Whattya noddin' at, foo?
Cloud: Uh... nuthin.
Barret: Good luck Cloud! If you make it, we'll follow you. Woah, I'll hold the PHS for you. It'll break if it gets wet.
Disembodied voice: You wanna jump with Mr. Dolphin?
You may as well. There's nothing better to do. Not even a two-bit saloon to get drunk in. Stoopid Junon slums... No wonder the Turks never visit. There's no booze!
Cloud: Sure.
Barret: First noddin' to himself... now talkin' to himself. Crazy foo...
Cloud puffs up his chest.
Cloud::quietly: Hero of Summer... Hero of Summer... Hero of Summer...
Cloud makes his way to the bottom of the tower and blows the whistle. He grabs onto the dolphins fin, the dolphin jumps, bringing him with it, and he lands safely on the pole. Well, except...
Pole: BZZZZZZZZZT!
Cloud::twitch: GrrrraahahaaaarrrrrarhrrrAAHARRRHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH::tremble:
Priscilla: Hmm, I guess the pole has a small charge, too.
Cloud returns to climbing the tower, small flecks of electricity jumping from hair spike to hair spike. Soon, he reaches the top of the town, the others following him closely. He ends up on a large landing deck. Floating in front of him is a very large airship.
Angael: Our first sign of Cid!
Crystal whispers over to Red XIII.
Crystal: whispering Angael's second love.
Red XIII: Who is this "Cid" person?
Angael: Oh, I love him so much! He's sooooo cute!
Crystal: If he heard you saying that, you'd be as good as dead. Hey, Cloud! Can we go see the airship!
Cloud: I suppose, but don't get into any trouble! Meet us down at the docks at the boat that's going across the ocean, ok?
Angael: YEAH! We get to play with things that might just go...
She turns to Crystal and puts on her most evil face.
Angael::mongo loud: BOOOM!
Crystal jumps and starts to cry.
Angael: Bwa ha ha ha!
The two of them run off towards the airship. Soon, they've climbed the rope ladder and have disappeared out of Cloud's sight. Cloud and the others head into the base, while on the airship, Crystal and Angael have found some hidden bunk rooms (there's a hidden door in the Chocobo Stable that leads downward) and have decided to do a little redecorating. They're sitting at a table, painting names on long blocks of wood.
Angael: You know… we're going to be a room short. Two people are gonna have to share a room. Probably share the huge one at the end of the hall...
Crystal: That's taken care of.
She holds up the large silver plaque that says "Crystal and Vincent's room. Be sure to knock before entering." painted in beautifully scripted black letters.
Angael: ¬.¬; R-ight...
Crystal: Uwee hee hee hee hee!
Meanwhile, back in the base, three soldiers march by Cloud, followed closely by their captain. The others are hiding at this point.
Captain: Hey! You still dressed like that? Come 'ere! Here! Get in the room!
Cloud: Nooooo... I don't wanna!
The captain pushes Cloud into the locker room.
Captain: Today's the big day when we welcome President Rufus! Hurry up and change!
Cloud: It's the ShinRa uniform.
Captain: What'd ya expect? A cheerleading outfit?
Cloud: Actually, the president would probably prefer cheerleaders over soldiers...
He smells the uniform.
Cloud: Oh my GOD! Who's been WEARING this thing? It smells HORRIBLE::moan: Augh... my poor nose...
Cloud starts to get changed when he looks over at the captain.
Cloud: I KNOW you're not about to watch me get undressed. A little privacy, please?
Captain: You want privacy? Get promoted to a private and we'll see!
Cloud::muttering: I was in SOLDIER so I outrank you anyways, Captain Badass...
Captain: WHAT WAS THAT!
Cloud: N-nothing...
Captain: That's it! Drop and give me 50! And for God's sake, MAKE IT QUICK!
Meanwhile, Red XIII has found a uniform of his own. Tifa and the others are already in theirs, and are trying to convince Red XIII to put his on.
Tifa: Come on... It'll look slimming on you!
Red XIII: Are you saying I'm FAT?
Tifa: N-no...
Red XIII: I should have a choice, you know! I don't like dressing like two-legged things.
Aerith: Or breeding with two-legged things.
Red XIII: Absolutely.
Somewhere else, back on the Highwind, Crystal and Angael have been painting Red XIII's room a very lovely shade of green, with a plush creme carpet and have placed a lovely soft blue mat in the corner, along with some other things he might need.
Angael: Crystal, you've got paint in your hair.
Crystal: I do? Where?
She swings around to look for it, hitting Angael in the face with the paint in her hair, splattering it across her nose. When Crystal turns back around, she laughs.
Crystal: You've got paint on your nose!
Angael: I know.
She tries to wipe it off, but only ends up smearing it.
Angael: STUPID PAINT!
Crystal puts her hands on the walls, trying to cover... it's... e..ars...¬.¬;
Crystal: Shh! Don't say that! You'll hurt it's feelings!
She realizes the paint is still wet, and trys to wipe it off on herself, only spreading it. Angael is still trying to wipe off her face, which is now spreading around even more. Pretty soon, they're both completely green.
Crystal: I always knew you were green with envy over my painting skills, but this is ridiculous...
Angael: It's not much of a skill if there's more paint on you than on the wall.
Crystal: Hey now!
God, am I ever having fun with this! Anyways, back in the locker room, Cloud has finished his pushups and resumed putting on the uniform.
Cloud: Brings back memories...
Captain: Quit yappin'! Hurry up!
Cloud: A ShinRa uniform... I was so proud when I first put it on.
He hops up and down, trying to get his leg into the pants.
Cloud: I wonder when it was... I couldn't stand wearing this thing anymore.
He walks out of the room wearing the complete ensemble.
Captain: Wow! You look good in it!
Cloud: Of course I do! I'm on a constant strict diet, you know. Lots of exercise, too.
Captain: You remember the Greeting Procedure, right?
Cloud: … :shrug:
Captain: ...the look on your face says you forgot. All right, I'll show you again! Do just like we do.
Two other fully attired soldiers run in.
Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb: Commander! We'll help too! This is how to do it. We'll sing too!
Cloud: Anything but that...
Captain: All right! Show 'em! Now, march! This's the Welcoming March!
Cloud starts getting in the spirit of things.
Cloud: Then! I'll sing along with you!
Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb: Quietly--! Aaah! Aaah! Hey, come on now! Now!
They start to praise Rufus, ShinRa, and affiliates, Trade Mark, Copyright, Rights Reserved, Patent Pending, etc... The captain begins to instruct Cloud on what to do.
Captain: Keep in step with the soldier next to you and march smoothly! Once you're all in step, shoulder your gun! Got it?
Cloud: All clear!
Captain: Good! Make sure you do well at the real parade! My boyfriend is gonna be there, and I don't want any screw-ups!
Cloud: Does that mean you were hitting on me earlier?
Captain: No... you're not my type.
After a bit more practice, where Cloud refuses to look at the captain anymore, being completely disgusted, a third soldier runs in.
Tweedle Dip: Rufus has arrived! Preparation completed!
The three brainless grunts leave.
Captain: All right, show time! Don't disgrace yourselves, or me for that matter! I'm watching you all like a hawk...
He turns to Cloud.
Captain: Especially YOU!
Cloud shudders and follows them out of the locker room. Meanwhile, the others are having a bit of trouble finding their way back to the docks, and have winded up in a local bar, still wearing ShinRa uniforms, where they see none other than...
Tifa: The Turks!
Reno: Hey, aren't you guys supposed to be in the parade?
Red XIII: Uh... no. We are rounding up assorted crewmembers for the trek across the sea. Have you seen any of them?
Aerith::whispering: Nice going, Red!
Tseng: No. Hmm...
He approaches Aerith.
Tseng: Your figure looks a lot like a young woman I know...
He goes to pull off her mask when one of the ships crewmembers walks out of a back room, gaining everyone's attention.
Sailor: Oh, are you guys here for me? Sorry I'm so late. C'mon. I'll escort you guys back to the docks.
He salutes the Turks.
Sailor: Sirs.
They all leave together. Meanwhile, back on the Highwind, Angael and Crystal have finished every room except Angael's and Crystal's (which is also Vincent's). They are currently hanging an Arabian chair from the ceiling in Crystal's room. Oh, come on... You've seen the chairs before! They're like wicker half-cylinders with a cushion in it that hangs from he ceiling. Anyways, Crystal's hanging the chair and Angael's draping red lace over the top of the steel California King size canopy bed. She smoothes out the black and red silk and satin sheets. Crystal's love nest.
Angael: I hope this is the last time I'll ever see your room. I can already picture you and Vincent rolling under the covers. :shudder:
Crystal: Ahan... Vincent... we shouldn't...! What if the others find out::as Vincent: It matters little. You and I need this. :normal: Ahannnn... :blush:
Angael: ¬.¬;
Crystal starts to stare off blankly into space.
Crystal::drool:
Angael: I don't know why I put up with you. One of these days, I should give you a good smack.
Meanwhile, Cloud and the other soldiers have made their way to the middle of Junon, where a helicopter is hovering overhead. The captain is barking orders to his troops. Another soldier arrives.
Captain: Begin the Welcome Parade!
They all move to their positions. Thousands of soldiers are marching in straight formation. Rufus is in the center of it all, waiving from the back seat of his convertible, streamers and glitter flying everywhere. Suddenly, a piece of glitter hits his eye, and he yells to his driver.
Rufus: Find whoever threw that piece of confetti and torture him!
Back at the base, Cloud is following the other soldiers out towards the parade. Back at the long street, the soldiers arrive.
Captain: Oh no! No one's here! Late---?
Tweedle Dee: It appears so, sir!
Tweedle Dumb: We're positively positive!
Tweedle Dip: Let's shake it!
Many thinks to Chrono Cross for that one. Another soldier runs to an alley.
Random soldier: Hey! Rookie! It's because you're running around like that!
Cloud: ROOKIE? I'll have you know, I was a SOLDIER, First Class before you even JOINED ShinRa, you ROOKIE!
But, alas, no one hears him.
Tweedle Dee: Captain! We'll take a short cut!
Captain: Right! Good idea. Get over here, sweet cheeks!
Cloud shudders.
Cloud: Patience, Hero of Summer, patience.
He runs to catch up with the captain.
Captain: All right! You first!
Meanwhile, back on the Highwind, Crystal and Angael have finished redecorating and have sat down to a cup of tea.
Crystal: You know what, if Sephiroth had a dog, I bet it would be a pair of Mini Yorkies.
Angael: Why's that?
Crystal: My mom has a pair. They're black with brown faces and legs, and a mess of silver hair on top of their heads that spikes out every which way, super cute eyes, and big, cute ears. They're completely loyal, and even a bit quasi-evil if you get a boy and a girl.
Angael: How about a big, black Great Dane? A big baby of one!
Crystal: Yeah!
Angael: Yeah!
Crystal and Angael quiet down.
Angael: ...hey.
Crystal: Yeah?
Angael: Why don't we ask him? Get me the clone.
They pull out Number 12. After a bit of prodding, he reluctantly morphs for direct Sephiroth communication.
Sephiroth: YOU again?
Angael: Yah...
Crystal: SEPHIROTH!
She kisses him on the lips.
Angael: HEY! Only I can do that!
Sephiroth::sputtering: What is this? A meeting of my fan club?
Angael: We have a question for you.
Crystal: Yah!
Angael: If you had a dog, what breed would it be?
Sephiroth: I do have a dog, and it's a chihuahua.
Angael and Crystal: Whaaaaat?
Angael: Why?
Sephiroth: Because they're mean and insane and pocket sized for easy travel. Now, goodbye.
The clone morphs back.
Clone: Re...union...
Angael and Crystal stuff him back in the bag.
Clone: Murrfle…!
Ahh... this one was TOO long! I was gonna keep going until they got on the ship, but there's a long joke coming up, so it would have made the chapter unbearable. Anyways, I hope you followed it okay this time, seeing as the scenes were split into three parts... This chapter was dedicated to my dad, though I'm not sure why.
