For your random information: I am typing this in Arizona. Sure, it's raining here in Tucson, but a Washingtonian like myself is sweating in this weather. Okay... I just had to say that...

Once again... if you have forgotten... again...

Sephy was transferred from the battle of North Crater and was warped onto Lake Hylia's shoreline. He met up with the two 'heros' and somehow, he made himself believe that he needed to help them in order to become a god. And last chappie... he gave Link a Twiss wrapper. Link learned the Nocturne of Shadow and the general and the Hero of Time are at the entrance to the Shadow Temple. Meanwhile, Reno has been put on restriction, but... in the case of his idiocy, he fell into another dimensional riff thing.

Ch. 3 Into the Temple

Any normal person would think it sensible to slowly approach the opening, then cautiously slide down the steps and look at his surroundings. But, of course, Link was neither normal nor sensible. Hence, he just ran in, his footfalls echoing in the dark chamber, with the stoic man, silent as ever, and the glowing, annoying as ever, in tow.

Upon entering the chamber, Link looked around, for once. There were multiple torches placed around the room, all extinguished at the moment, and a small section of raised circularized bricks in the center of the rounded chamber. Thinking for a moment, amazingly, he pulled out his bow and arrows and, for a split second, believed he had fire arrows.

"You don't have fire arrows, remember?" his fairy taunted, somehow reading his very thoughts while floating above his head. Link frowned and raised his arrow threateningly at her. "What? Going to shoot me?" Sighing, he placed the arrow back in his quiver, and the bow wherever he keeps it, and took another look around the room. How was he going to do this...? There weren't any lit torches... so he couldn't use deku sticks. And... he had wasted his time trying to get fire arrows. "I don't know either..." Navi muttered, somehow reading his thoughts again.

For some strange and unknown reason, the Hero of Time suddenly remembered that there was a rather large, strong, probably smart, man behind him. Whirling around, he faced the man, whom was looking at the torches and the walls. Biting his lip in his annoying silence, Link tried to think of someway to communicate with the silver-haired man. Then, everyone must gasp, he had an idea. If Navi, and practically everyone else in Hyrule, could read his thoughts, why couldn't Sephiroth? Sure, he wasn't from Hyrule, evidentially, but still. It was worth a shot.

:For Sephy... a change:

The room was strange, more like a cave from The Great Glacier than anything else, though. The torches were unlit and a platform was raised in the center of the chamber. It was evident that this was a puzzle. The torches went around the center. Someone was supposed to stand there. Who? And, what materia would be used? If someone stood there, a summon would only engulf half of the room. It would half to be done from the entrance, but then why the platform...

Sephiroth's thought process was cut short by Link. The boy was thinning his lips together and squeezing his eyes closed. His body was shaking and his hands went in and out of fists. The ex-general quirked a silvery-eyebrow at him.

"Link," the fairy said, not seeming to pay any attention to the young hero. "I have an idea..." Link had stopped doing whatever he had been trying to do and looked over to the fairy. "Well... couldn't you just use Din's Fire... I mean... that goes in a circle, right?" suddenly, the Hero of Time's face brightened drastically. Din's Fire? Sephiroth asked himself. I've never heard of such a thing...

The teen ran into the center of the chamber, and he patted his bags for something. He had apparently found it and held it in his hand. A word, more like a martial arts cry, left Link's lips. Sephiroth quirked an eyebrow. Bringing his right arm back, Link pushed his left foot forward and a different cry escaped his lips. Then, he pushed whatever he was holding into the ground and suddenly a half-circle of fire passed through the teen and engulfed the whole room.

Sephiroth had not been harmed by the attack himself, but the Hero of Time had. His tunic, boots, and leggings were covered in a black char, while the tip of his hat was on fire. Apparently, something had amiss, for Navi fell onto the ground in a fit of laughter. Link squashed her with his foot, and she screamed in agony. But, the torches were lit, and a hidden passageway was opening from the rocks, causing a small earthquake. Picking up his fallen fairy, Link ran to the opening, and motioned for the ex-general to follow.

:Wow... it's a hole...:

Sighing, the red-head looked about the around him. He had gotten bored of his shiny tazer weapon. I mean, it can only be as entertaining as what's surrounding it. So, as a point of fact, Reno was completely bored. He could try and remember the names of all the people he had met on... that planet which he could not remember the name for, but that would require remembering, and he couldn't really do that. But, it was the only option he had left.

"Fine..." he growled to himself. "I'll do that..." he shifted his eyes to another point of the darkness. "Good, then we can finally be intelligent." he paused for a moment, then spun around. "What do you mean, finally be intelligent?" he spins around again. "Just what I mean, idiot!" twirl away. "What's that supposed to mean!" he smacked his head at this moment and mumbled, "let's just get to it... it's not right to argue with one's self." he turned around again. "Oh, are you sure? Because I believe your like... a different entity then my being... or something like that..." he placed his head in his hands. "I'll just shut up, you just try and remember, deal?" he turned around. "Deal." he then shook hands with himself.

"Alright, now that that matter has been settled... let's get to whatever I was going to do." he clapped his hands together and smiled happily. " But... uh... what was I going to do...?" he poked his head. "Oh, yeah! Try and remember the AVALANCHE people... things..." he scrunched his face up. "Okay... that first one... that looked like Cloud... was... blonde... the other... was Tifa and brunette... and all that other stuff... and then there was Red XII... but that thing could walk on two legs and was blue..." he twirled into a standing position. "Nope... can't remember..." he shrugged. "Oh, well." Just at that moment, he passed through the end of the time continuum thing, and basically pencil-dived into the really freezing water. Actually, since the water was a little low, he couldn't pencil dive. So his knees just buckled under his weight and he was sitting in the water.

"Hey..." he said, looking around. His eyes stopped when he saw the water's surface. "water is shiny..." he then stared at the reflecting light, and barely noticed as the fish swam by.

: Shall we go to Midgar?:

The view of the destruction of Midgar was enough to make anyone feel better in minutes. But that doesn't count for Tseng. He was just staring at the crumbling remains, and just about shot a few people who were walking on the street below him. The pollution was still thick, and probably would be for another thousand years, and it was hard for the Wutian to breath. Elena hung back beside hi,. letting her boss cool down from the anger he had built up from Reno.

He had stood there for a few hours already, and was beginning to feel calm. Maybe it was because Midgar was destroyed. Maybe it was because there was ShinRa was gone. Maybe it was because no one was bothering him. Maybe it was because Reno wasn't making a sound. Tseng's eyes flashed open. Reno, not making a sound? Don't make me laugh. He turned and walked toward the riff portal to Spira, and the bald man repairing the very expensive cam spy. Rude looked up for a moment, nodded in recognition, and went back to work.

"Where's Reno?" Tseng asked, voice calm as ever. The bald-headed Turk simply pointed in Reno's supposedly general direction. Turning, the Turk leader walked over to another edge of the building. There was no Reno there, only a billboard publicizing Twiss. The idiot probably fell off while trying to reach it... boy, he doesn't know how right he is, does he? Usually, he noticed when his blonde underling came up behind him. But today, at this moment, for some reason that we will never know, he didn't notice, as he stood on the edge, contemplating what happened to Reno.

"Sir!" Elena cried, saluting behind him. Sadly, Tseng jumped causing a slight shift in his footing. Elena gasped, as Tseng fell off the building.

A/N: Short... I know... but A) it's a cliff-hangar... and I really couldn't resist. B) I haven't been updating much, so you better be happy that you're getting this (seeing that I might quit) C) I just like making lists at the moment... yeah... okay... people talking time...

Kikyo's Killer: Of course... of course... but don't tell the penguin monkey babies... the shrink was their last chance...

Nysoku: Hmm... isn't this called updating? But... this isn't soon, is it?

KT: I'm sort of back... again... I'll write off and on... but hey... 'tisn't that better than just plain off?

Seiferzellsquall: You'll find out if the 'poor stupid Turk' (I think I'll use that as a later description) gets his Twiss next time! n.n ...maybe...

Zack and Reno sat in Zack and Sephiroth's shared apartment (big surprise) and were talking. The general is just arriving home.

Zack: Okay, want to hear a joke?

Reno: As always!

)Sephiroth walks in, but no one seems to notice(

Zack: Why did the driver throw her money out the window?

Reno: To distract Scarlet?

Zack: Uh... no...

Reno: Uh... to kill the Metroid?

Zack: The what? No no no!

Reno: Uh... to get Seph to sexily strip for her?

Sephiroth: )chokes on air(

Zack: What? Are you- no! That's not it.

Reno: Uh... I don't know?

Zack: Exactly... and no own will...

Reno: Hey! I got it right! )just notices Sephy( Oh, hi, Seph.

Zack: Hi!

)Zack and Reno go one as if nothing happened and Sephiroth walks slowly to his room(

A/N: Okay... well... yeah... I'm done... going to do... uh... other stuff now... and leave you all at one of the helluva annoying cliffhangers.
