When Yuffie looked on the world of destruction and desolation before her, she felt tears well up in her eyes. Her hope was breaking. Desperation was starting to set in Her breath came in shorter and shorter as her tears fell. "Aerith," she called out, trying to find the healer.

"Y-yuffie," a hand shakily made its way into the air some distance away.

"Aerith," she climbed over the dead bodies of Heartless and Nobodies and humans as quickly as she could. The woman was dying. "Aerith," she sobbed.

"W-where are the o-others," the woman asked, ignoring the fact that she was dying and should have been worrying about herself for a change.

"I-I don't know," she cried, "I lost them in the battle."

"Y-yuffie?"

"Yes?"

"I-if you s-see Cloud, tell him I-I l-love him." And with those final words, Aerith slipped off into the world of the dead, leaving a sobbing Yuffie behind. And she knew what Aerith did not. The others were dead. Everyone was. They had lost the battle, the war, against the Heartless. And now she was alone. Things weren't supposed to happen like this.
