A New Ally (Remake)

After walking into the cargo, Hiro sighed at the sight. Barrels were everywhere, hard for people to walk around the room. The crates were stacked up randomly, and they could fall at any moment. The whole place was dusty as well, and Hiro sighed again. "They need to clean this place up."

Aeris nodded in agreement. "I mean, look at all this dust!" Aeris said, wiping her hand on a crate and showing it to the blonde warrior.

"Achoo!" Hiro sneezed, and he sighed. "Damn dust." He muttered, and Aeris giggled.

"Well we might as well look around this place. It could give us a couple of clues eh Hiro?" Aeris asked the blonde, who nodded. Little did they know, Yuffie was sneaking away from them. Screw this place! I'm going to go look for some materia! Yuffie thought. Besides, I can be away from that guy!

She silently left the room, while Hiro and Aeris were opening crates. Hiro opened up one, and all of the items were weapons. Guns, swords, and any other type of weapons was in it. "Woah." Hiro said, and Aeris looked at him.

"What is it?" Aeris asked, as Hiro turned to her.

"I found alot of weapons in one of them, what about you?" Hiro asked, and Aeris sighed.

"Same." She said, and she began to search again.

Hiro started to look around in each crate, only to find weapons. All of them were weapons. "What the hell are weapons on here?" Hiro muttered, and all of a sudden realization came into his mind. "Shinra..damn bastards can't get their own weapons, so they smuggle some to them. Lazy bunch of bastards." Hiro mumbled to himself. "Hey Aeris."

Aeris turned to him. "Yes?" She wondered what the blonde boy wanted.

"What happened to President Shinra?" Hiro asked. "Oh. He was killed. Murdered by Sephiroth."

Hiro's eyes widened greatly, and his face turned a bit pale. Aeris noticed this. "Hiro? Hiro are you okay?" Aeris asked the blonde warrior, who nodded.

"Y-Yea. Let's continue looking shall we?" Hiro turned back around and started to look in the crates again, this time faster. Why this reaction? I might as well ask him later. Aeris thought, and Hiro kept opening the crates. I swear...If that bastard comes near her, I'll kill him. Hiro thought to himself, and after opening the final crate, he sighed. "Well, all of them are weapons. Apparently, Shinra was smuggling weapons." Hiro explained his theory, but Aeris gasped.

"Hey Hiro, check this out." Aeris said, bring a small box over to him. It was a thin box, and it was sort of long. Aeris was carrying it quite easily, so Hiro could tell it wasn't very heavy.

"Here, let me see that." Hiro said, taking the box away from her and placing it on the nearest flat surface. Hiro opened it to see a green materia, and a letter next to it.

"A letter?" Hiro said, opening it up to read.

To the new president of Shinra Eletric Company: Rufus Shinra

Dear Rufus

How are you my dear boy? I'm deeply sorry about your father dying at the hands of Sephiroth. It feels my heart with grief that such a incredible man died. Anyway, I have found a very uniqe materia called Comet, which is very rare around these parts. I found it on Gaea Cliff, while studying. I present it to you, Rufus, the new president of Shinra. I hope you enjoy the new materia, since it is quite powerful. Also, I would like to bring up a certain topic. It has to do with two old friends of mine. I cannot give out names, since it would be to dangerous to tell you about them. I'll tell you that one of them is a young man. The other is a woman. DO NOT BE DECIVED. These two our very dangerous.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy your new toy.

Your loyal servant and friend,

Professor Hojo

"That bastard." Hiro muttered, making Aeris look at him.

"What?" Hiro shook his head.

"Nothing. Anyway, since it is to the new president of Shinra." Hiro grabbed the materia and placed it into his arm.

"Hiro, you are really planning on stealing it?" Aeris said, and Hiro chuckled.

"Stealing? I'm taking something away from the real thief." Hiro said, and Aeris shoo her head, giving him a disappointed look.

"That is the same thing as stealing Hiro." Hiro chuckled nervously this time. Damn it she is right! Before Aeris could lecture him, Hiro quickly made a excuse. "Hey! Where is that one girl, the ninja?" Hiro asked, and Aeris looked around.

"Hmm? Oh no she is gone! God knows what she-"

"GET BACK HERE YOU LITTLE THIEF!!!!"

Out of the blue, Yuffie ran into the room with arms full of materia, while a Shinra guard was chasing her. Yuffie hid behind of Aeris and peeked out. The Shinra stopped infront of them, and noticed something. "Wait, do I know you?" He asked Aeris, who quickly shook her head.

"No." She said, hoping that she wouldn't be reconginzed. Lucky for her, the Shinra guard turned to Hiro. "Wait...I know you. I remember you somehow.." The Shinra guard studied Hiro, and Hiro sighed in pure annoyance.

"Okay, I'm going to give you a couple of choices. Choose your path wisely. A: You can try to fight us. B: You can try to call for help. Or C: Walk away and you never saw us." Hiro said, sounding a bit serious.

The Shinra guard laughed. "You actually believe you three can defeat me? I was a ex-SOILDER!" The Shinra guard began.

"Shut up. Choose your path. Or I will choose it for you." Hiro warned. Aeris noticed his right hand was swinging back and forth slowly.

"Fine, I choose A!" The man tried to pull out his gun, but Hiro quickly pulled out his sword. Hiro slashed him in the chest, making the guard to quickly holding his chest with his right hand. Hiro kicked him in the stomach, making the guard to bend over. Hiro took the chance and kicked the guard's helmet off, revealing a brown haired man. His hair was smoothed back, and his eyes were black. The man looked up at Hiro, who then slashed him across the face. The man covered his face so that they couldn't see the mark, but blood poured out of it, passed his hands. "MY FACE!" He screamed, but Hiro shut him up by pushing him to the ground, and placing the tip of his sword on his neck.

"You won't tell anyone about us, understand?" Hiro ordered the man, who nodded. Hiro turned around, and walked over to Yuffie. He grabbed a materia from her, making her eye to twitch.

"GIVE THAT BACK YOU SON OF A-" Aeris quickly covered Yuffie's mouth.

He dropped it on the man's hands, making it bounce off of the man's hands. It landed on the ground, and Hiro put his blade back on his throat. "Will this do as a payment?" Hiro said, and the man nodded. "Good." Hiro said, placing his sword back into it's sheath. He put his hand in the air and beckoned the two to follow him, and they walked out of the cargo room, while the man was groaning in pain.

As they walked through the hallways of the ship, Aeris smiled at Hiro. "How did you get that good with a sword Hiro? I never thought a young man like you could never do that." Aeris was amazed by his skill, and Hiro smirked.

"Years of practice. I'm really good with a sword, since I was a little kid. Hell, when I was five, I beat a adult swordsman in a sword sparring match." Hiro said, and Aeris smiled.

"Really? That is amazing!" She said, but then deep in Hiro's mind, he couldn't help but think.

It took me atleast thirty minutes to fight the guy. After the fight he pulled a gun out on me. Thank god I had other adults around me. Hiro thought to himself. He wasn't 'amazing'. He was lucky.

"Big deal! I could of done that!" Hiro looked at Yuffie, who looked a bit angry. To Hiro, she looked beautiful. Perfect, and a blush appeared on his face. Wow...she is amazing. Yuffie still was a bit sick, and she gagged a bit on the way, but Hiro didn't care. He still thought she was beautiful.

Yuffie noticed Hiro staring at her from the corner of his eye, and her eyes narrowed. "What are you staring at blonde boy?" She asked, and Hiro quickly took his eyes off of her.

"N-Nothing!" Hiro said quickly, blushing. Aeris didn't even notice it, thinking about something.

"So Hiro, do you have any parents?" Aeris asked, and Hiro shook his head.

"No. I never had any parents." Hiro just said it plainly, like he didn't care, and Aeris looked down.

"I'm sorry Hiro." She apologized, and Hiro shrugged.

"It's alright." Hiro said. He then noticed Aeris had tears in her eyes. "Hey! Don't cry. I'm okay with it really!" Hiro said, and Aeris nodded. Geez..emotional much? Hiro thought.

"I k-know, it's just so sad. Right Yuffie?" The ninja was to busy looking at materia to care.

"Hm? Oh sad whatever."

Aeris glared at the ninja. "Yuffie! Say your sorry! It is really sad! You probably had parents while Hiro didn't!" She said, but Hiro sighed.

"It's okay Aeris. I'm over it now." Hiro said. They walked in silence until a smile appeared on Aeris' face.

"Hey Hiro, do you have a special girl in your life?" Hiro blushed wildly. "Maybe..."

Aeris narrowed her eyes, and Hiro sighed. "I don't think it is any of your bussiness anyway, we're too busy anyway." As they continued to walk, Hiro couldn't help but think of Yuffie. He had a crush on her, as he just thought.

As they walked around, Hiro was thinking to himself. Where are they? He thought to himself, until he heard voices. One of them sounded very familar, and then he gasped. "In there!" Hiro said, opening the door.

Cloud and the others were battling a deformed creature, and Hiro wondered who it could be. "Hiro, we can't just stand here! We gotta help them!" Aeris said, rushing into battle. Yuffie stood behind him, wondering why the blonde wouldn't move.

"Hey loser! Would you mind holding this stuff for me?" She gave him the materia, which he held for no reason. "Alright, now it is time to fight!" Yuffie said, taking out her shuriken and rushing into the battle. Hiro stood there, with the materia in his hands. That creature..it is so familar..could it be?! Hiro dropped the materia, which rolled on the floor.

"Jenova..." Hiro muttered. He quickly removed his sword and charged.

Aeris was casting spells on Jenova, while aiding the others with her healing skills. Cloud was slashing at Jenova, dodging most of her attacks, while casting spells at the same time. Tifa was fighting as well, hitting Jenova from behind while Cloud took the front. Red was standing alongside of Aeris, protecting her from most of the attacks. Barret was shooting at the monster, once in a while reloading. "Damn, this is taking to long Spikey!" Barret yelled at Cloud, who nodded.

"I know!"

Out of nowhere, Hiro jumped up at the creature, and Jenova noticed him. She tried to hit him with some spells, but Hiro dodged them quickly. Hiro took his blade and slashed Jenova across her 'chest' making her make a groaning sound. Hiro landed on the ground, and slashed her chest repeatly. Everyone gasped in surprise for a second, but returned to battle afterwards. Hiro jumped back and started to cast multipule spells at Jenova. "You..will..die!" Hiro yelled at the monster, but it ignored him. Hiro stopped and started to attack with his sword again. He dodged all of her attacks, and slashed her again in the lower part of her deformed body. "Alright..here we go!" Hiro disappeared, and appeared behind of Jenova. He slashed at her, making green blood pour from the wound.

He disappeared again, and this time appeared above her. He then stabbed her in the head, making her scream in pain. He jumped back, and sighed. "This is taking way to long.." Hiro said, and he held up his hand.

"I have no choice. This wasn't very enjoyable Jenova!! COMET!!" Out of nowhere, a giant rock crashed through the ship's roof, and it hit Jenova dead-on. It made a large wound on her head, making green blood to blast out like a hose. She screamed, and they all covered their ears, trying to ignore the sound. When she finally was done, she fell to the ground, not dead, but exhausted.

A dark portal above of Jenova appeared, and a man with long silver hair apperaed out of the portal. He wore mostly black, and he had iron shoulder pads on his shoulders. He had cat-like green eyes, and his smile was full of evil. It was Sephiroth, ex-SOILDER and Cloud's partner. "

Well, well, well, if it isn't my old friend. Hiro." Hiro glared at him, and his hand gripped his sword.

"It has been awhile..hasn't it?" He asked, and Hiro nodded.

"It has bastard!" Hiro growled, and Sephiroth laughed coldly.

"You are lucky though. I could of seen her." He said, and Hiro glared at him.

"I'm going to kill you!" Hiro said, running towards him, only to be held back by Barret.

"No..now is not the time boy. I will seal your fate later.." Sephiroth said, smiling. He disappeared through the dark portal, and was gone. Hiro glared at the dark portal, which disappeared after Sephiroth went through.
