Unlikely meetings

"What do you mean." Said Cloud confused

"I am from the future and I'm gonna help you."

"How do I know your not with Sephiroth?"

He stared blankly at space and said with hate in his tounge.

"Sephiroth . I hate Sephiroth . he took everything away from me." Cloud knew this look he was doing he does this whenever he thinks hard or expresses his feelings. He knew this man wasn't from Sephiroth so he trusted him.

"Well I guess you want to know some questions from me."

"Yeah." Cloud said with no expression

"My name is Zero I come from the future like I told you, I am the commanding general of the freedom fighter of the planet in the fight against Sephiroth I have lost an eye, arm and a leg in battles against Sephiroth. My parents are unknown and my guardians were my 4 uncles. Weapons I use are guns, spears and swords. I have no use of magic because I am magic."

"What do you mean you are magic?"

"All I know from the archives that I have found that I was an experiment the scientist extracted all the energy from a materia and put that energy into me making me in a sense a materia myself."

"So this means that you can summon fire or whatever you want and you don't have to use materia?"

"That is correct."

"Ok so I'll let you join my quest come on were going to the inn."

They walked into the inn and went to the party's room. Cloud opened the door and to see Tifa waiting for him.

"Cloud you're here finally .

She trailed off to see Zero in back of Cloud waiting to come in.

"Come on in Zero oh yeah Tifa this is Zero he is from the

Cloud felt a nudge and looked at Zero who had his eyebrows raised. Cloud read his mind he guessed it said "Don't say anything about me being from the future!!"

"Cloud you were saying?" asked Tifa "Oh yeah he is from the uh um ah." Zero stepped in the conversation to stop further arousing in Tifa's suspicions. "I am from around the northern continent I am a wanderer looking for fights. I have come here to join your quest to fight Sephiroth and destroy him."

"Yeah that pretty much explains it tiff."

"Well if you are a wanderer and you do want a fight I'm in the mood for one."

"Tiff you can't be serious."

"Stay outta this Cloud this is between me and the the new guy."

"What do I get if I win?" questioned Zero

"You get to join."

"Agreed."

They both went outside stretched and cracked there knuckles.

"Ready?" Tifa said Zero didn't reply just waited. "I take that as a yes."

Tifa ran towards Zero with unbelievably fast speed. Zero kept standing. Tifa decided to take a minor hit and swooped her left foot towards him. Zero blocked with his left hand and returned with an uppercut. Tifa fell to the ground and got back up.

He's fast but I was only testing him now for the real thing

Tifa ran toward him again and this time punched his stomach as hard as she could. Zero kept standing. He's probably shocked from my power I better keep attacking to show him who's the boss. She punched a combo of moves against her opponent and was gonna end it with an uppercut. Her fist was coming towards his chin and hit it.

Nothing happened his chin didn't even move even with all that force. Oh my god. Zero finally spoke some words. "That . tickled." He grabbed her hand and twisted it "My turn." He said with no expression. He punched her in the stomach with his free hand. Tifa clenched her stomach with her free hand He Twirled around behind her and elbowed her in the back. PAIN was going through Tifa's eyes he was so fast with his moves she couldn't even make a sound when he attacked. After the last attack Tifa was on her knees Zero jumped backwards in front of Tifa. She was expecting the final blow when Zero said. "Enough."
