Cloud and the others stared down at the now lifeless body of the Bahamut SIN. Suddenly Cloud heard a loud cry from behind him. He quickly turned his head to see a bright white light shining from one of the buildings in the city. When he got a closer look, he could see it was Kadaj about to attack Rufus. Cloud quickly jumped down from the building as he quickly ran towards Fenrir to stop Kadaj.
Kadaj fired a Matra spell from his Materia empowered arm at Rufus in his anger. Rufus side stepped off the side of the building and the blast collided with another part of the building, causing an explosion. Rufus pulled out his gun from his coat and began firing shots at Kadaj. "Mother!" Kadaj called out as he leaped off the building after the box containing Jenova's remains. Kadaj leaped off the building at a faster speed and flew past Rufus while chasing after the box. Reno and Rude looked up at hearing the explosion, only to see Rufus and Kadaj falling from the building.
"Sir no!" the two cried at seeing their superior falling off the building. Rufus continued firing shots at Kadaj as Kadaj continued reaching for the box. After many failed shots, Rufus finally fired one more shot which zoomed through the space between Kadaj's fingers. The shot smacked the box and green liquid began seeping out of the damaged side as the two were almost at the ground. Tseng and Elena appeared on two sides of the building with bandages on their injuries with net guns in their hands.
The two quickly fired the net guns and saftly caught Rufus in the nets as Kadaj and the box continued to fall towards the ground. Just as Kadaj was about to reach it, the box suddenly disappeared from sight. Kadaj gasped in shock as he landed on the ground by Reno, Rude, Loz, and Yazoo. He looked around for the box only to see it was nowhere in sight. Suddenly, Kadaj sensed an unfamiliar presence nearby and turned in the direction of the presence.
In the middle of the street stood a man with brown hair, a black jacket and black glasses. In his hand was the box containing Jenova's remains. The man smirked as he quickly jumped onto a motorcycle parked near him and sped off with the box. "After him! He has Mother!" Kadaj called to Yazoo and Loz. At the mention of the word Mother, Loz and Yazoo quickly broke away from Reno and Rude and got onto their motorcycles as did Kadaj. Before heading off, Kadaj looked to his right to see Cloud heading their direction. Kadaj ignored Cloud and quickly started up his motorcycle and sped off in the direction of the man who took the box.
Cloud accelerated and passed Loz and Yazoo before they were able to head off. The man with the box looked back to see Cloud and the three Sephiroth remnants coming after him. The man quickly sped up as he turned right at an intersection. Kadaj, Cloud, Loz and Yazoo followed him the same way. The five quickly drove through another intersection while also avoiding the people who were trying to cross the street. After that, they all turned left and entered the road leading to the unfinished highway.
There was a blockade sign ahead that said "Do Not Enter" on it. The man ignored the sign and accelerated towards it. His motorcycle easily smashed through the sign and he entered the highway. The smashed sign flew towards Kadaj and Cloud who ducked under it. Kadaj accelerated ahead after the man as Loz and Yazoo got on both sides of Cloud. Yazoo began firing shots at Cloud who quickly moved Fenrir out of the way of the bullets.
Loz appeared on his left and used his motorcycle to slam Cloud's against the side of the highway. He was about to hit Cloud with his Dual Hound, but Cloud opened Fenrir's sword compartments which pushed away Loz's motorcycle into the wall on the side of the highway. Cloud drew his sword from one of the compartments as Yazoo swung his motorcycle around and began sliding it sideways as he continued firing shots at Cloud. Cloud deflected the bullets with his sword as he accelerated towards Yazoo.
Cloud swung down his sword which Yazoo blocked with his Velvet Nightmare. The two motorcycles were spinning around each other as both were trying to gain the advantage. Cloud pushed Yazoo back which caused him to slightly lose control of his motorcycle as Cloud accelerated past Yazoo. The man looked back to see Kadaj was still after him with Cloud catching up. He quickly turned right onto the higher road and Kadaj followed after him.
Cloud was about to turn onto the higher road, but Loz suddenly appeared in front of him. He jumped off his motorcycle and flew down while swinging his Dual Hound at Cloud. Cloud spun Fenrir into a one eighty in order to avoid the attack. While riding backwards, Cloud looked to his left to see there was no way he could get onto the higher road now. He spun Fenrir back around and continued on the road he was riding on. Loz jumped into the air and landed on his still moving motorcycle as he and Yazoo continued their pursuit of Cloud.
Kadaj looked over the side to see Cloud was catching up, so he went even faster. Cloud looked behind him to see machine guns unfold from the sides of Yazoo and Loz's motorcycles. They began firing shots at Cloud who moved left and right to avoid the shots. Loz and Yazoo didn't notice Reno and Rude were tailing them in a helicopter. "You losers are chasing the wrong guy!" Reno said as he began firing the helicopters front mounted machine guns at Loz and Yazoo.
The two began moving around to avoid the gunfire coming from behind them. Loz quickly popped a wheelie and turned his motorcycle around. He pressed his foot against Yazoo's motorcycle to keep his up as he began firing shots from his motorcycle back at the helicopter. Unfortunately, they were now going under the higher road so the helicopter was now impossible to hit. Loz grunted in frustration, but suddenly when there was an opening in the side, the helicopter appeared facing the Loz and Yazoo.
It continued firing shots at them causing Loz to push away from Yazoo's motorcycle and they continued riding while avoiding the helicopters gunfire. The helicpoter flew in front of them and up next to Cloud. Cloud quickly accelerated ahead of the helicopter as Rude opened up the sidedoor with a very large rocket launcher in his right hand. He fired a shot which zoomed towards Loz and Yazoo at incredible speeds. The two managed to barely avoid it, but the rocket hit the road behind them which caused a large explosion.
The explosion caused the entire road behind them to start breaking apart as well as the road they were driving on which caused them to lose control. The upper road also began breaking apart as a large dust cloud kicked up over the destruction. Reno thought the two were stopped, but Yazoo appeared on the destroyed road. He quickly accelerated towards the end of what was left of the road he was driving on. He turned onto the destroyed end and went flying off towards the helicopter.
Rude looked out the side door to see Yazoo flying towards the helicopter. He quickly backed out the other door of the helicopter as Yazoo came flying through. Before flying through the helicopter, Yazoo shot Reno's control stick with his Velvet Nightmare. Reno heard Rude scream on the com link as Yazoo flew through the helicopter to the undestroyed road. "Rude!" Reno called as he quickly reached for the control stick to save his partner, only for the control stick to break off from Yazoo's gun. Yazoo and Loz landed on the road as Reno started screaming from the helicopter spinning out of control.
"No no no! Don't do this to me!" Reno said as he looked out the side door for Rude, only to see Rude hanging on to the side of the helicopter.
"Hey, Rude, you're alright!" Reno said as he watched his partner hang onto the helicopter.
"Yeah. I'm just peachy." Rude said in sarcasm as the helicopter span towards an unfinished tower. It collided with the tower and sent Reno and Rude onto the roof of a building as the flaming helicopter crashed into the the high road. A piece of the road and helicopter broke through and were flying towards Cloud, who dodged them and sped up enough not to get caught in the explosion. Reno and Rude sat up from the ground to see another helicopter flying above them. "Hey, guys!" Elena called down as a rope was extended down for them.
Cloud managed to get out of the way of the falling debris just in time, but Loz and Yazoo made it as well. The three entered a tunnel after escaping the chaos behind them. Loz turned his motorcycle to the left and was moving fast enough for the motorcycle to ride on the walls and then onto the ceiling above Cloud. Loz jumped off his motorcycle at Cloud who blocked the attack with his sword as his motorcycle was slightly spinning out of control.
Cloud used his strength to push Loz off Fenrir. Loz landed on Yazoo's motorcycle and jumped off it after his. Yazoo fired shots at Cloud who deflected them with swings from his sword. Loz landed on his motorcycle as Cloud drew the other Side Blade from Fenrir's compartment and accelerated towards Yazoo. He swung it down but Yazoo dodged the strike. He swung again with the Side Blade, but Yazoo ducked under that strike.
Yazoo fired shots at Cloud as their motorcycles spun around each others, but Cloud blocked them with his sword. Cloud swung down hard with his sword, but Yazoo managed to block the large sword with his Velvet Nightmare. Loz sent his Dual Hound into the ground which stopped his motorcycle before Loz used his legs to throw the motorcycle towards Cloud and Yazoo. Yazoo ducked under the flying motorcycle as he fired a shot at Cloud who blocked it.
Cloud used Fenrir to jump forward and quickly combined the other Side Blade with his sword, completing the entire Fusion Sword. Cloud spun upside down and swung the Fusion Sword, completely slicing Loz's motorcycle in half. Loz suddenly appeared and swung his Dual Hound at Cloud, but Cloud managed to fly over the strike before being kicked back towards Fenrir by Loz. Loz grabbed hold of one half of his motorcycle and gasped before it exploded.
A blue blur suddenly came flying out of the flaming remains of the motorcycle. Just as Cloud landed on Fenrir, Loz appeared from the blue blur and punched Cloud in the air before warping up and kicking him two more times and sending him back towards Fenrir. Yazoo pushed Fenrir out of the way as he fired shots at Cloud who was forced back by the bullets. Yazoo jumped at Cloud as he pushed Loz away from him. Loz used his warp power and flew towards Cloud from one side as Yazoo came flying in from the other side.
Cloud quickly flipped a Side Blade from the Fusion Sword and caught it in his left hand. He used both swords to block Loz and Yazoo's attacks from both sides of him. Cloud quickly used his strength to push the two off him. While they were pushed back Cloud used both swords and swung both of them hard. The spinning attack cut into Loz's Dual Hound which left an electricity sparking slice in the middle of it. Loz quickly threw the weapon off him as it exploded.
Yazoo drove over and caught Loz on his motorcycle which skidded to a stop as Cloud landed on Fenrir and drove off ahead of the brothers. Yazoo tossed one of his Velvet Nightmare guns away as the front part of the barrel had been sliced off and bent from Cloud's attack. Yazoo quickly accelerated his motorcycle after Cloud.
Kadaj was still driving very fast on the highway road after the man with the box that contained Jenova's remains. As the two sped passed on one road, Reno and Rude stood in the middle of the other road. "Hey, partner. This thing got any bite to it?" Reno asked as he held up a large explosive device in his hand.
"Shinra technology at its finest." Rude answered.
"Oh, so you made this." Reno replied.
"If nothing else, it's flashy." Rude replied back.
"Oh, good." Reno said with excitement in his voice.
"You love it. I know." Rude said back.
"Looks like today we're clocking out early." Reno said as they patiently waited for the right time. Cloud quickly exited the tunnel and flew passed the two Turks. Yazoo and Loz exited the tunnel, only to see the explosive devices count downs reaching zero. There was a large and colorful explosion which caused a strong wind that caused Cloud to spin. Kadaj and the man looked back to see the explosion going on. Cloud flew off the edge of the higher road as colorful firework-like explosions went off in the sky.
Kadaj quickly spun his motorcycle to sliding on its side as he blocked the attack from Cloud's sword with his Souba. As they were riding on the road while keeping their swords connected, they looked ahead to see the man with the box ride his motorcycle off the edge of the incomplete highway. Suddenly, his motorcycle transformed into a jet-like vehicle and he flew off towards a large ship in the sky. He flew his vehicle into the ship and as just as the hangar closed, the ship took off at a great speed.
Cloud and Kadaj weren't able to stop, and both went flying off the edge into the remains of Midgar. Kadaj's motorcycle slid down the sand and dirt covered wall as Cloud came speeding in on Fenrir with his sword out. Both stabbed at each other, but they both missed each other. Kadaj broke off from Cloud and drove off in the direction of an exit to Midgar. Cloud, figuring there was no point in chasing Kadaj now that Jenova's remains were out of his reach, sheathed his sword in a compartment and drove off towards another exit.
After getting out of Midgar, Cloud drove all the way back to the city, this time with no interferences. As he was driving on the roads on Edge city, a man in a brown cloak suddenly appeared on the road in front of him. Cloud skidded to a stop and was a few feet away from hitting the person. "Are you crazy?! Are you trying to get yourself killed?!" Cloud shouted at the person. The person didn't respond. Instead, they tossed an object in their hand towards Cloud.
He caught it, only to his surprise to see it was his cell phone which he lost in the Forgotten City. "Hurry Cloud. We must get to your friends so I can inform you all of what is happening, and what you can do to stop it." the man said.
"Fine, then hop on." Cloud said in a somewhat irritated voice as he placed his cell phone in his pocket. The man hopped on the back and Cloud quickly accelerated off in the direction of the 7th Heaven Bar.
