ATE: Sorry it took me long to update. I finished this chapter as fast as I could.
Chapter 6
Going Back To Gaia
That morning at breakfast Cloud explained to my parents that he and I were leaving today. When I saw the look of concern on their faces, I told them that I would be okay.
When that was over, I went to my room and got my sword and the white materia from their places. I stopped before I left. I might not come back her again, so I should bring something. I then thought to bring my ipod with me. I went over to my desk and placed it in my pocket. The only songs I had on it were sountracks (like KH 1 & 2, Final Fantasy VII Advent Children, and all three LOTR).
When I was done, I came back downstairs to meet up with Cloud. Before leaving my family came to see me off.
"Bye, Tori." Said Mom.
"You two play nice now." Said Jackie.
I then glared at my little sister.
Ashleigh then came up to me with a book of some sort in her hand.
"Here. Take this." She said as she handed it to me. I soon found out that it was my photo album with the photos I took over the last three years of the family along with me in some of them.
"It's my photo album. Why are you giving me this?" I asked.
"Well, you might not see us for awhile, so I thought you should have it to remind you of us."
"T-thanks. If I find a way to get back here, I'll try to visit as often as I can."
"Hey, remember the movie quote." Said Jackie. "Dilly Dally, Shilly shally."
"Okay, we'll get a move on." I said. "Let's go, Cloud."
Cloud nodded to me and placed his sunglasses on his face. We then walked out the door and went over to Fenrir. This would be my eighth time on it. Cloud got on first and I followed and wrapped my arms around his waist. Before I knew it we were now driving on the road towards a portal of some sort. It then figured out that that was how Cloud got here before. We then drove into it and as quick as we had entered we were out of it.
When I looked around I saw that we were in the wasteland area that Cloud fought the SHM (Silver Haired Men aka Kadaj and his gang) in the beginning of the movie. Up ahead I saw Edge and we were heading in that direction too. It was then that it hit me like a ton of bricks.
"We're going to the Seventh Heaven. I'll get to see Marlene and Denzel again." I thought.
I knew I would be happy to see Marlene and Denzel again, but would they recognize me? I'll find out soon enough.
We were now driving through the city and soon Cloud was parking in front of the Seventh Heaven. We both got off Fenrir and made our way to the door.
"You go in first." Said Cloud.
I was suspicous of why Cloud wanted me to go inside first, but I went in anyways. As soon as I walked inside, people jumped out of nowhere.
"Welcome back!!" They shouted.
I jumped up in surprise. I then noticed that the people were Tifa, Yuffie, Barret, Marlene, Denzel, Cid, and Vincent (he didn't shout with the others). I saw a sign hanging from the ceiling saying 'Welcome Back' on it.
Before I knew it, I was in a suffocating hug by Yuffie.
"YEAH! YOU'RE BACK! WE MISSED YOU SOOO MUCH!" Said Yuffie. Man, was she hyper.
"Yeah... Thanks Yuffie... Could you let go? I can't breathe..." I said as best I could.
"Oh, sorry." She then let me go.
I was then hugged by Marlene and Denzel.
"You're back." They said.
"Hey, you two. I missed you too."
"You've changed." Said Tifa.
I looked up at Tifa.
"Well, three years had passed since I got back, but Cloud told me that three months had passed here." I said.
As if on cue, Cloud came in.
"Did I miss anything?" He asked.
"Not really." Said Tifa.
"Well, what are we waiting for?! Let's party!" Said Yuffie.
We all then started having a party. And believe me, it was fun!
ATE: Sorry about itbeing short and all but I'll try to make the next chapter longer. Please Review.
