Not much to say except thanks Chaotic Rei for Looking this over and improving it.
Chapter 6
I was so relieved when we finally left Nibelheim; the place was just so false and whats even worse Sephiroth was there! Sephiroth was in the Shinra Mansion. When we found him he started saying stuff about a reunion and other things; but I wasn't really listening because I was hiding behind Cloud, praying that Sephiroth would not attack us.
There was also this really weird guy in a red cape. Cloud got into a conversation with him, it turns out that his name is Vincent and heis an ex-member of the Turks. We've met the Turks a couple of times.From what I've seen they're not really a threat and not to mention that they're complete cowards, they keep running before the battle is over! He was in love with Sephiroth's real mother, Lucrecia. If that woman is Sephiroth's mother then why does he keep saying that Jenova is his mother? Vincent is now part of the team, that is until we kill Hojo.
Vincent has a creepy look to him as well asa dark aura surounding him. I get scared just looking at him, but if he starts anything with me he'll get a ninja star up his butt!
The most wonderful thing happened after that. We were all traveling through Mount Nibelheim, and it was an easy trek except for the occasional monster or dragon. Thanks to my exceptional Ninja skills, I beat most of them all by myself! Cloud came in handy, especially when we had to beat a big monster called Materia Keeper. The monster also lived up to its name because when it ws defeated, it dropped a single piece of materia, which of course I quickly scooped up before anyone noticed. But that's not what made me happy, believe it or not.Half way down Mount Nibelheim I tripped and hurt my ankle, and who would have thought "The Great Ninja Yuffie" could fall and hurt her ankle? Barrett burst out laughing and just like last time he laughed at me I had to set him straight myself.
And this is when the wonderful thing happened. Cloud stopped my limping assault on Barret and told me to get on his back! I blushed redder than a ripe tomato which didn't go amiss by Tifa and Aeris. So as not to endure two very jealous females wrath; I tried to decline Cloud's offer but that is wherethe problem lay. Cloud didn't offer his help, he had ordered me to get on his back. So when I declined, he simply picked me up by my arms, swung me 'round to his back and wrapped his arms under my legs. I made a nervous glance behind me and saw Tifa and Aeris both looking ready to beat me to a pulp. I knew my demise was close at hand so I decided to enjoy this while I could.I enclosed my arms around Cloud's neck and placed my head on Cloud's. I took a deep breath which made Cloud stiffen a little. Cloud stayed like that until we got to Rocket Town or at least I think he did, becauseI fell asleep some time before we got into Rocket Town. Cloud was warm and the steady beating of his heart was comforting. I could not help but fall asleep and have "pleasant" dreams. NYUCK! NYUCK!
Rocket Town is so boring! There is absolutely nothing to do! There only attraction is a giant rusty rocket that looks like it will fall over any moment! And to top it all off, we're stuck here until we can find a boat or something to leave! I need some amusement and the only thing that comes to mind is Cloud.
I find Cloud sitting on a bench looking at the rocket, and yet again he has that glazed look in his eyes. What must he be thinking about when he goes into his own little world? I walk up and stand right in front of him and he still doesn't notice me. I jump onto his lap and bury my head in his chest. I need to see how much he cares for me so I start the waterworks. Cloud, back from his trip in la la land, obviously concerned about me asks what's wrong:
"Are you okay Yuffie?"
"Cloud, do you think I'm a bad person?"
"Well, you're not a saint but no one onour team is."
"I'm not asking about the team."
(Cloud takes a deep breath) "No Yuffie. I don't think you're a bad person. Mischievous and deceiving at times but not a bad person."
"I get the feeling that the others don't want me on the team..."
"What gives you that feeling?"
"Barret keeps saying he doesn't want me on the team."
Cloud lets out a little chuckle, and says,"Barret says that to me, Red and Vincent as well."
"...Do you like me Cloud?"
"I… er… I mean I… yes of course I do. I like everyone on the team," Cloud says nervously.
Damn! He got around that question. I was doing so well... I'll get him next time. "Thanks Cloud. I needed that. Come find me when were ready to leave, 'kay." And with that said I reluctantly got off his lap and make my way back into town.
I make my way into someone's house; they're not home as far as I can tell which is a bonus to a thief but I'm not here to steal, I'm just being nosy. The person that lives here must be a strange person. The walls are covered with paintings of the sky at night, paintings of that rusty rocket and decorative spears. Very strange. I make my way into the back yard. In here there is a little red plane called Tiny Bronco. It must be as stubborn as a mule to have a name like that. "S#&t, f$#k , b&&#ks!" Who the hell would use such vulgar language?
"Who the f&#k are you!" Came a voice from under the Tiny Bronco.
"Who are you, you vulgar git!"
"I'm the owner of this house and since you asked so politely, I am Cid Highwind the greatest pilot Shinra has…"
The stupid man should have stopped at his name because now I have to kill him. After all in the war between Shinra and Wutai they used airships to bomb us so he was probably one of them! I do a single back flip into the roof of his house while throwing Ninja stars at him. As I look at my handy work I see he is unharmed, carrying a spear that had all the Ninja stars I threw at him embedded in it.
"Girl, what the f#&k is your problem! Do you want me to hurt you?"
"You work for Shinra, everyone who works for Shinra must die to avenge Wutai!" With that said I pull out my Four Point shuriken. His eyes widen in surprise as he realizes that his spear will break if hit by this. This battle should be over quickly!
NYUCK! NYUCK! NYUCK! NYUCK! NYUCK! NYUCK! NYUCK! NYUCK! NYUCK! NYUCK!
