Meanwhile a blonde spiky haired guy was checking his messages. He just got one from from his childhood friend.

You got a call from Reno and them in Healing. They said it's a commission. Cloud, how have you been?

Cloud took his time. He stared at the phone for a few minutes, thinking. In the end, he got on his motorbike and drove off.

He wasn't even out of the desert when he realized he was followed.

"Where is Mother?" Loz asked.

"We know you hide her, Brother" Yazoo continued.

Unfortunately for Cloud shadow creepers appeared out of thin air and started to attack him. On the otehr side, the two brother launched at him as well. He tried to dodge the creatures and defend himself from the brothers but it got too hard. He felt a sudden pain in his arm and stopped. The dark creatures launched at once at him but they didn't harm him at all. They just dissipated, like sand. He glanced towards the hill and saw a boy. He was standing there proudly for a moment until he decided to leave.

He drove for a few more miles when he saw a motorcycle left in the middle of nowhere. He went closer and was surprised to find a familiar face, lying on the ground.

"Wake up" He shook her once but she didn't react at all. "Come on Elly, wake up" After he shook her one more time, she flicnhed and opened her eyes. She shook his hand off her and rubbed her temples.

She raised her head and stared at Cloud. It had been a while since she last saw him. He looked deplorable. Maybe, just maybe, he was going through the same pain she was. That thought vanished as quickly as it came, though. It was different.

"What happened?" He asked and tried to help her up. She didn't take his hand nor his help. She got on her feet on her own. She looked at him with a poker face.

"I don't know." She said while her hands unconsciously placed on her stomach. "Where are you going?" She was trying to change the subject.

"I got a message from Reno. I'm going to Healing" She rubbed her neck and sighed. It had been some time since she last heard of Reno and the others.

"Do you want to come with me?" She was perplexed by that question. She took her time and thought about it.

"I wasn't invited" She responded while she was getting on her motorbike.

"It doesn't matter" She stared at him, debating. In the end, his sad eyes got under her skin. She agreed to follow him to Healing.
