Tifa looked up at the door to Clouds room.

She and Cloud had been in there all day. Tifa was fussing over cloud like a baby chocobo with a broken wing. Cloud chose to just put up with all this needless flapping and allowed Tifa to baby him. He was just waiting for a chance to escape. But the more time went on the less chance there was Cloud could escape. Tifa just wouldn't leave Cloud alone. When she wasn't offering him food or fluffing the pillows on his bed she would sit at the end of his bed and just stare at him. Creepy.

Thick black smoke began pouring through the cracks in the door frame. Both Cloud and Tifa watched as the smoke filled the room and seemed to take a shape.

Almost instantly Kadaj was stood at the foot of Clouds bed. Tifa had jumped onto the bed and huddled into Cloud in fear. Kadaj had a horrid looking scar across his face were Zack had slashed him in their previous encounter. His scar looked almost identical to Sqalls.

"Found ya brother" Kadaj said smirking.

Cloud grabbed his Fusion sword from beside his bed and pointed it at Kadaj.

" Ha ha very funny brother. But I'm not in the mood to fight you right now" Kadaj said pulling a small grey ball from his pocket. Clouds eyes grew wide as he realized what it was. Kadaj pushed a small black button on the top off the ball and bright red mist started to spread across the room. Cloud covered his nose and mouth with his sleeve and tried to get to the door. He pulled and twisted the knob but it wouldn't open.

He watched Tifa flop against the bed and smirked. He knew that Tifa wasn't as popular as she thought. She always had to have her own way and was basicly a spoilt brat. She was always like that, because she was the mayors daughter no one was brave enough to put her in her place.

Cloud felt himself hit the hard wooden floor and watched as Kadaj loomed over him. He tried to get up but the toxic gas in his lungs wouldn't allow it. Cloud felt himself slipping into unconsciousness as cold arms fond their way around his chest and roughly pulled him up. Memories of what had occurred just few days ago came flooding back...the pain, the fear, the confusion. Clouds vision went white as he drifted into unconsciousness.

Tifa looked up to see Zack stood over her. He looked mad.

"Were is he?" Zack barked.

"Uh...w..what?" Tifa said, her head spinning as the sleeping gas wore off.

"Were is Cloud?" Zack asked impatiently.

"Uh...I...I don't no..." Tifa said trying to piece together what happened.

"What did you do with Cloud, Tifa?"

"A man came...he used sleep gas on us..." Tifa sat up holding her head. She was in Clouds bed.

"What did he look like?" Zack sounded panicked.

"Uh...silver hair..black clothes..." Tifa said vaguely.

Zacks eyes widened. "SHIT" The puppy ran out 7th heaven and jumped on Jiyuu. He drove off as fast as he could and went strait to the forgotten city.
