The blonde haired assassins looked at his partner in awe, he studied her dress with a cute dark bow on her chest area. Then continued to her below where she's still wore her brown boots and the silver pistols that in the place as well. The mid-night haired girl walked toward him then hit him…. Hard on the head.

"Aw! Rine, you sure still have some punch" Rinto said as he rubbed his head, while Rine just crossed her arms.

"You two know each other?" Aerith asked as she eyed the two that took a glance at each other.

"He is my idiotic friend that I talk about…. Well good thing we meet here" Rine said as she sighed deeply, then she stared at the blonde warrior beside his friend.

"Hey Mister, my name is Rine. Rine Steiner…. I'm Rinto's childhood friend" Rine said as she bowed toward the older blonde, Cloud just smiled a little.

"The name's Cloud. Cloud Strife" Cloud replied as the younger blonde shook hands with Aerith.

"Hello Miss… My name is Rinto. Rinto Stephenson… The one and only her childhood friend" Rinto said as he shook hands with the flower girl.

"I'm Aerith. Aerith Gainsborough" Aerith said as she smiled sweetly toward the younger blonde.

"Hey… we don't see many flowers at Midgar" Cloud said as he eyed the flower basket that was hold by Aerith.

"They only cost 1 gill" Aerith said as Cloud purchased a flower and handed her the money.

"Thank you" Aerith said as she handed Cloud the flower, the cetra turned to Rine who now looked at her.

"So…. Rinto you found your friend, what are you going to do?" Cloud asked as he eyed the younger blonde, Rinto just grinned.

"Well I just want to see Rine if she's okay or not…. So Rine you want to come and join force with me again?" Rinto asked as she looked at the blushing girl.

"Nope…. I'm going to stay with Aerith" Rine said as she clinging toward the flower girl, Rinto's mouth gaped.

"E-Eh? You don't want to come with me?" Rinto asked, Rine shook her head as a 'no'.

"Mr. Cloud please take care of Rinto~ I hope he behaved himself" Rine said as she smiled toward the older boy.

"Just Cloud is fine…. And of course he behaved enough" Cloud said as he grabbed the younger blonde's collar, about to dragged him to their base.

"Miss Aerith! Please take care of Rine alright!" Rinto yelled as he dragged by the blonde warrior, the flower girl smiled and waved her hands.

"Leave it to me…. Just Aerith is fine too!" Aerith yelled as the two blondes disappeared to the corner. Rine then giggled a little, followed by Aerith.

"So that boy is Rinto…. I think you and him are perfect couple" Aerith said as they walked toward the train station, the younger girl blushed so red.

"N-No… we're just friends!" Rine said as she blushed then she looked at the flower girl.

"Hmmm but I wonder why you didn't want to come with him?" Aerith asked as the other girl let out a giggle.

"Are you forgetting? I promise you to attend the flowers tomorrow, I kind of enjoy it" Rine said as she hummed slightly, then the girls saw that the boys are in trouble. Well they ran away from Shin-Ra MPs, Rine then grabbed one of her pistols.

"What are you going to do Rine? It's dangerous" Aerith said as she understood what the younger girl's going to do. Rine continued to focus until a dark energy surrounded her pistol.

"Well Aerith, I just want to help them…" Rine said as she shoot the energy toward the MPs, they were grabbed into some dark shadows. Rinto saw this and shot her a thumbs up, Cloud saw it was a chance to run then he grabbed the younger boy in the collar. Then the both of them jumped to the train's roof.

"That's awesome! But… how did you do that? You don't have any materia right?" Aerith asked as she eyed the younger girl who smiled truthfully.

"Well I have a teacher…. Her name is Rin, she taught me how to use pistols and do that too so I don't need a materia to cast magics but I really need to concentrate... harder" Rine explained as they walked toward their home. But somehow she kind of remember her and Rinto's teacher Len and Rin are married so they were close toward each other, somehow the memory made her smiled to herself.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

Rinto sighed for the thousand's time on his seat at the train that lead toward the sector 7 slum. His mind wondered everywhere as he stared at his feet. Well a while ago while both blondes tried to run away, Rine helped them with her powers so she should have noticed about this assassin power. Rinto then sighed again as he remembered after they landed toward the train's roof, they came in from the baggage door that lead toward the other Avalanche members. After some events again, they were stuck here to wait the train arrived at sector 7 slum.

"Ya okay there kid?" Barret asked as he saw the blonde teen sighed every time, the blonde gave the larger man a smiling face.

"Yeah… I just do some thinking, something that my friend usually do" Rinto answered as he lowered his head again.

"Is it that Rine girl from sector 1?" Cloud asked as he sat down beside the boy, Rinto shook his head.

"Nope. Not about her at all" Rinto said as he blushed slightly, well Rine is kind of cute wearing dresses like that.

"You seemed to like this Rine girl. Do you like her?" Cloud asked bluntly, making the boy turned fifty shades of red.

"Well you seemed to like Tifa too… Do you like her?" Rinto seemed to want to get revenge asked the same question, making the blonde warrior turned fifty shades of red.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

Finally the Avalanche members arrived at the sector 7 slum after they got Barret's speeches, when they wanted to enter the seventh heaven Rinto slipped…. Again. This time he's back touched the ground first.

"Why is this thing always happen to me?" Rinto asked desperately sighed as once again Cloud gave him a hand that Rinto gave thumbs up in return.

"Well I think you're just naturally a clumsy boy" Cloud answered with a chuckle, then when they entered the seventh heaven bar they were greeted by Tifa.

"Wow! You guys already back" Tifa said as she smiled cutely, making the blonde warrior blushed and showed her the flower.

"Wah! We didn't see many flowers in Midgar… is that for me?" Tifa continued with a teasing tone, but Cloud seriously gave her the flower.

"Yeah it's for you, Tifa" Cloud said with a blush on his face, making the beauty bartender also blushing at his attitude.

"Thanks. I'm going to make the bar full of flowers then… this one smell's so good" Tifa said as she moved the flowers toward her nose. Marlene is behind the bartender took some shy glances.

"By the way… Cloud do you have a fight with Barret?" Tifa asked as the older blonde sniffed and smirked.

"Nope… Not at all" Cloud lied through his teeth, Rinto let out a chuckle.

"Great! You're now a grown up after all~" Tifa said as she got back to behind the bar, then Barret came and picked Marlene up.

"Marlene! I'm home~" Barret said as he carried Marlene on his arms, the young girl giggled. Rinto smiled at the sight, he kind of remembered his teacher… Len.

"Avalanche! Come on let's meet up!" Barret yelled as he went to a gaming machine and pressed the button. Make the two came down toward the base, the trio followed him jumped to the basement. While Cloud and Rinto waited the machine to came back.

"Cloud, Rinto… do you want some drinks?" Tifa asked.

"Yeah…. Give me something hard" Cloud answered with a smile, they both sat in front of Tifa. As she mixing the drinks.

"Here…." Tifa gave Cloud's drink and a glass of milk for Rinto.

"Tifaaa! I'm not a kid!" Rinto whined as he saw his drink, Cloud and Tifa gave him glares.

"You're under-age!" They both said firmly, making the blonde boy give up and drank his milk.

"Well I hope that can make you grow a little taller~" Tifa teased the younger blonde, whose jaw dropped.

"I'm not short!" Rinto said blankly, Cloud chuckled.

"You're even just reach Tifa's forehead, and Tifa just reached my neck" Cloud said flatly but a smirk make their way toward his lips.

"Alright I'm give up… I'm give up!" Rinto said as he raised his hands until it reached his shoulder, making Tifa giggled a little.

"Well you two should hurry, Barret's waiting for you" Tifa said as she shooed both blondes playfully, then the both of them went to the machine and pressed the button.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

Inside the house in sector 5 slum, the flower girl and the assassin girl both inside the flower girl's bedroom. They shared bed to each other because… well Aerith always no really want a little sister, so she always thought Rine her sister.

"Rine. Rine. Rine" Aerith said as she got closer to the younger girl's face, making the teen blushed so red.

"W-What is it Aerith?" Rine asked as she looked at the bright emerald eyes staring on her.

"Well, I almost forgot to ask you a question… can I ask?" Aerith said as she used her puppy eyes, Rine just nod shortly.

"Yeah just ask anything you want to know" Rine said as she smiled a little, Aerith's eyes landed on the two white hair clips on her right bangs.

"I just notice you two have two similar white hairclips, but his on his left bangs while you at the right bangs…. Is that kind of a couple thingy?" Aerith asked as the mid-night haired girl smiled softly.

"Well this is our best friend's mark, but I kind of want it in my left bangs too so we get alike each other" Rine said as she let go of her hairclips, her bangs fell over her right eyes.

"Wow! Your bangs are long, so that's why you wore them every time" Aerith exclaimed as she grinned, while the younger girl looked at the white hairclips on her palm.

"Don't worry! I will fix your hair!" Aerith said as she grabbed a pink comb, the younger girl just nod as the flower girl combed her hair.

"Your hair is so soft" Aerith mumbled, while the younger girl said 'Thanks' under her breath. Then after that Rine put on her hairclips on her left bangs, while she grinned a little.

"Thank you very much Aerith" But before she knew it, Aerith picked up a white ribbon. Tie some of her black hair into a side ponytail on her right side of head make the ribbon became a cute white bow. Rine blinked a few times then looked at the flower girl.

"Well it's for our friendship, my ex-boyfriend gave me this pink so I gave you white…. And please always wear it every time" Aerith asked as she showed her pink bow, Rine then smiled to herself.

"This is so cute! Thanks Aerith and I will" Rine said as her eyes brightened, well this is the first time she received gifts from friends… a normal gift to be exact.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

Rinto awoken in the middle of the night, he saw the trio Avalanche that consists of Jessie, Wedge and Biggs asleep at the matrass. Beside him, Cloud and Tifa slept at next to each other made him smiled a little. He got up slowly and walked toward the exit. The next minute he found himself on the roof of the seventh heaven, his assassin skill made him didn't let a single sound from himself. He stared blankly toward the night sky or maybe the very big plate above him.

'Rine…. Are you stay with Aerith because you want to save her too huh…? I want to save her from her death too but…. How?' Rinto thought as he slowly closed both of his sapphire eyes, a few minutes or so he heard some steps behind him.

"Can I join you?" The baritone voice made him opened his eyes as he recognized who's behind him right now, the blonde assassin sighed and smiled.

"Heh… I think you have some fun time with Tifa" Rinto smirked as he turned around, facing the spiky haired blonde warrior who blushed fifty shades of red. Cloud then came closer to the boy then sat next to him.

"Can't sleep or awoken by Barret's snore?" Cloud joked as Rinto chuckled a little.

"Nope… I just awoken and can't sleep" Rinto said as he stared at the plate again.

"Hey Cloud…. Where are you come from…. Before Midgar?" Rinto asked as he looked at the older blonde.

"Honestly…. I don't really know…." Cloud answered as he himself stared at the plate above him, the younger blonde titled his head.

"Huh? What do you mean you don't know…?" Rinto asked as he remembered at this point Cloud might has some memory trouble.

"Well you know… I think I have some memory trouble… I don't know" Cloud answered as he frowned at the end of his sentence. The two blondes stared for the plate for a while…

"Rinto… I…. I…. I really didn't mean to hurt Tifa's feeling like that, I didn't mean to forget our promise when I about to left Nibelheim" Cloud said as he looked at the other blonde.

"Well at least you remember and stay for the next mission to explode the sector 5 reactor… Tifa will be with us this time" Rinto said as he smiled to make the other blonde comfortable.

"Yeah and at least Barret will pay me for the next mission" Cloud said as he sighed lightly.

"Yup… yup… I'm happy for you…." Rinto said as he grinned slightly.

"It's been on my mind but… why are your friend didn't want to join Avalanche? She's the one who made those shadows that time right?" Cloud asked as he eyed the other blonde.

"There must be something on her mind… she's probably still figure it out" Rinto lied because honestly he didn't know what Rine up to.

"Is this about Shin-Ra?" Cloud asked as he looked seriously toward the other blonde.

"Well I will wait for it… I will be patience for now…. Let's go back to sleep" Rinto said as the two blondes walked back inside the bar.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

The mid-night haired girl awoken at the midnight time too, she saw Aerith still sleeping while hugging her so tightly. Then she sweat dropped slightly…

'Is she really clingy like this…? I kind of feel I like a teddy bear for her' Rine thought as she slipped away from Aerith easily and opened her bedroom's door quietly as she closed it without making a single sound.

She made her way toward the bathroom and stared at herself at the mirror, she studied herself for a while when her gaze landed on the right side ponytail with a white ribbon on her right side. She concentrated a bit then her eyes turned red, then she turned it back to her natural black.

"I can't find anyone with the twelve zodiacs power beside Rinto here in Midgar…." Rine whispered to herself as she turned on the water pipe and washed her face a few times before finally turned off the pipe. She scanned her wet face for a while then she grabbed a towel, dried her face with it.

'So far…. I kind of wonder how we thrown here…. If it Jenova or Sephiroth doing I will hear some strange voices in my head but none… So the only one who can do this is him and only him' Rine thought as she got out from the bathroom only to meet Elmyra on her way.

"Oh Rine? What are you doing at the bathroom?" The brown haired woman asked worriedly to the young teen.

"I just need to take a pee for a while mam" Rine said as she bowed slightly toward the woman.

"Please Rine, you can call me mom like Aerith… because you're now like a part of the Gainsborough family after all" Elmyra said as the girl smiled softly and genuinely toward the woman.

"Thank you very much for your care, I will try…. Mom" Rine said as she nervously smiled toward the older woman.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

The morning came, Rinto awoken by the sunlight and a nudge on his side. He slowly got up as Cloud smirked above him.

"Come on! Don't be lazy now… It's time for our mission" Cloud said as the younger blonde got up to his feet.

"Aright… Alright… I'm up now, happy?" Rinto asked groggily stared at the blonde warrior who chuckled a little.

"Not a morning person huh?" Cloud asked but Rinto nod lazily and yawned.

"Not really… I just reminded that Rine used to splashed me with a bucket of water when waking me up" Rinto said as he walked side by side with the older blonde. Cloud let out a smirk, and glanced at the shorter blonde.

"What da hell keep ya guys so damn long?" Barret asked as the two blondes made it way toward the leader of Avalanche.

"Good job at waking him up Cloud… and good morning Rinto" Tifa greeted as the two blondes smiled a bit.

"Yeah… We kind of having some conversation" Rinto said as he ate his breakfast, and he had a big wide smile.

"You know Cloud, I'm going too for this mission" Tifa exclaimed happily.

"What? But Tifa, this is dangerous!" Cloud said as the younger blonde still eating and eavesdropping at the same time.

"No. I'm still going to come with you" Tifa said as the younger blonde already finished his food and now drinking his milk.

"Cloud! Let Tifa come, she's in Avalanche so she must be a fighter like us" Rinto said after he finished his milk, Tifa shot him a thankful smile. Cloud then sighed heavily and smiled as well.

"Alright if that what you want Tifa" Cloud said as he gathered supplies for the mission, Tifa came to Rinto and hug him.

"Thank you very much Rinto! I will give you glasses of milks after this mission over!" Tifa said as Rinto struggled in her boobs.

"Y-Y-You're w-wel-welcome Tifa! P-P-Please l-let g-go o-of m-me… n-need s-some a-a-air h-here" Rinto said then Tifa let go of the pale boy in need of air.

"I'm so sorry Rinto!" Tifa said as she tried to shake Rinto's body who now knocked out.

"Now now… come on we already set" Barret said as the younger blonde just gave a thumb up to the leader, his fingers are shaking.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

"Rine get me the watering can over there!" Aerith asked as the younger blonde ran toward the corner to pick up the can. Then ran back to the flower girl, her new side ponytail and white bow seemed to bounce every time she moved.

Well now Rine had her usual attire and she kept her headphone in her new pink backpack that she found when she got thrown to the Final fantasy VII world. Well the first time she opened it after she arrived at Aerith's house at the first time making her jaw dropped. Inside the bag there are some of her usual clothes and even a smartphone in there. Finally for safety, she put her wallet in the backpack from now on.

"By the way Rine, why are you keep the gloves and bringing that bag?" Aerith asked as the girl smiled for a bit.

"It's kind of comfortable to bring these things" Rine asked as she continued to attended the flowers, she kind of giggled when she kind of remembered around noon after the reactor exploded Cloud will fell toward the flowers they arranged.

"What's so funny Rine?" Aerith asked as she looked at the younger girl, she crossed her arms over her chest.

"Nope. I just remember Rinto" Rine answered, wondering if her idiotic friend will fell to.

"Now I truly sure that you really love him very much" Aerith exclaimed as the younger girl blushed so red.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

Waiting in the train made Rinto yawned for a hundred time since 20 minutes ago, the older blonde beside him busy with blushing face as Tifa leaned toward him explaining the security check point while Barret sat across him looking bored as him.

"Hey kid!" Barret called him, the blonde looked at him.

"What is it?" Rinto asked as he stretched his body.

"Ya sure ya just want to hold that restore materia, even Tifa had ice materia and that Cloud has fire and bolt materia. And I have an ice materia too?" Barret asked as he eyed the younger boy.

"Don't worry. I used my natural magic without a materia… here let me show you" Rinto said as he showed his palm in front of Barret. Then after concentrate a bit, there's some tiny yellow electricity on his palm making the Avalanche leader watched in awe.

"Well that's cool. Ya are something else Rinto" Barret said as he relaxed again on his seat but suddenly the red lights flash and made the two jumped out from his seat.

"What da hell happen here?!" Barret yelled as Cloud and Tifa came near them, confused with the situation. But suddenly Jessie appeared from the next cart.

"One of our cards are invalid! So we should move from cart to another cart to avoid it! Well we will be waiting for you at the alternative route!" Jessie said as she ran followed by the other three Avalanche members.

"Hurry up!" Cloud yelled as he ran with Barret and Tifa, carts by carts got through by the Avalanche members. Then Rinto suddenly remembered a thief at the train as he saw a man about to grabbed Cloud's pocket. Rinto kicked the poor guy and saw that he robbed an elixir. He collected it and gave it to Cloud.

"Be careful you know" Rinto said as Cloud nod and got it to his pocket again, then when they arrived at the last cart. They're planning to jump out from the train.

"Well this is scary" Tifa said as she about to jumped, Cloud then face palmed.

"Then why did you come along at the first place" Cloud said as Tifa's cheeks reddened.

"Alright! Watch me, I gonna jump!" Tifa said then she jumped out from the train, Cloud then looked at Barret.

"You sure you okay be the last?" Cloud asked as the leader stared at him.

"A leader must go in the last place" Barret said then Cloud jumped out from the train, Rinto looked unsure.

"Are you sure this is safe?" Rinto asked as he rubbed his back head.

"Just jump dammit!" Barret said as the boy jumped followed by Barret. Rinto rolled on the ground but then he hit the wall…. Very hard.

"Rinto! You okay?" Cloud asked as he checked the younger boy's condition, Rinto just nod and gave a thumb up like always but Cloud then searched for a hi-potion that he got from defeating some enemies. Then after he got it, he scooped Rinto's head and make him drink the hi-potion. After the potion drunk, Rinto coughed so hard.

"Ugh…. It's so bitter" Rinto managed to said, Cloud smiled a little and offered his hand toward the younger boy. Rinto accepted his hand.

"Well it's healing you…" Cloud said as he pulled the boy to his feet again.

"Thank you very much" Rinto said as the two of them walked toward the two other Avalanche members.

"Rinto! You okay right?" Tifa asked, Rinto just nod and grinned toward the bartender.

"Come on the reactor is at the end of this tunnel" Barret said as all of the four Avalanche members started to walk toward the end but after some minutes walking at peace they were greeted by some lasers that marked they reached the dead end.

"Shit there's no other way" Barret cursed as the leader of Avalanche looked annoyed, Rinto then looked for a way walked around. But the unlucky teen stepped toward a familiar hole, making him fell down.

"GYAAAAAA!" He screamed as the gravity pulled him down, Cloud heard him but didn't met the other blonde with the other Avalanche.

"Where's Rinto? I think I heard him screaming" Cloud asked as he looked around and didn't even meet the other blonde member.

"Auch…." That voice, Cloud then found a hole, with Rinto rubbed his face in it.

"Rinto are you alright?" Cloud asked concerned of the blonde boy, but Rinto grinned like he was crazy. Tifa and Barret are behind Cloud as they sighed relieved that the blonde is okay.

"I think I find another way here! Come on guys!" Rinto said as he walked deeper toward the pipe. Cloud then prepared to jump, but Barret stopped him.

"Are ya sure we have to get in there?" Barret asked unsurely nervous, well he kind of think that his muscular big body can't get in there.

"Well, there's no other way" Cloud said as he jumped down and landed on his feet, followed by Tifa behind him. Cloud then saw Rinto waving to them motioning them to come there.

"Cloud…. I think Rinto hit his head pretty hard when he fell down here" Tifa said concerned toward the blonde teen, Cloud nervously laughed.

"Well…. I think he's fine" Cloud said as he saw Barret landed with his feet too, finally making his mind.

"I'm not gonna got through some pipe again!" Barret said as he saw Rinto jumped down through another holes shouting 'This way!' to them.

"Well seems like you have to" Cloud said mockingly, but when he about to jumped he slipped and fell beside Rinto who can landed on his feet.

"Cloud are you okay?" Rinto asked as the other blonde stood up on his feet again.

"I think I got your clumsy virus after all" Cloud said as he sighed heavily, Tifa giggled from above them and Barret smirked mockingly.

"Come on! Let's get this over with" Cloud growled under his breath as he walked, Rinto by his side just stayed silent. Tifa and Barret who already landed on their feet followed him quickly.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

The assassin girl suddenly felt someone tailing behind them as she arranged the flowers, she guessed it was Reno of the Turk as she remembered him in the game. The mid-night haired girl stared blankly toward the church's door as she really hoped she got helped from either Cloud or Rinto or both.

"Aerith… you brought your staff with you as always right?" Rine asked to the flower girl who hummed at response, well seems like Aerith didn't notice another presence beside them after all.

"Rine, what's wrong? Why are you stopped arranging the flowers?" Aerith asked as the younger girl smiled mischievously toward the door.

"Nope. I just thought I heard a cat hiding in there" Rine said as she prepared herself and she looked at the flower girl.

"You have some materia?" Rine asked, Aerith nod and picked something from her pink bow, who Rine knows as the 'white aterial'.

"How about the other materias?" Rine asked as Aerith then returned the special materia to her pink bow. She nod and took fire materia and restore material.

"I saved them just in case I got another attack again" Aerith answered as she equipped the materia on her staff, Rine nod then looked up.

'There's no explosion yet…. Rinto…. Or Cloud…. Please be fast' Rine thought as she finally sighed heavily.

"Rine do you know that I'm a Cetra?" Aerith asked changing the topic, Rine shook her head.

"Mom never mentioned anything about Cetras" Rine answered but deep down she knew that her sister figure is the last cetra.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

The four Avalanche members finally arrived at the sector 5 reactor's core. On the way they met Jessie, Wedge and Biggs then the ponytailed girl apologize to Cloud because she modified his card. Then gave Cloud the detonator and ran off to the stairs. Well now the remains of Avalanche already got items from their fights such as some potions, ethers and even tents and 1000 gills! Well Rinto really happy that they got here after those troubles.

"Well Cloud, let's doomed this reactor" Rinto said, but before the blonde reached the other blonde he grabbed his head with one hand another used to grab the detonator.

"Cloud! Are you alright?" Tifa said after a minute Cloud regained his senses and stood up right again. But he looked sadly toward Tifa and continued his mission, after a while the detonator plugged and they ran away again. Dodging some fights as many as possible until they reached the door with three switches there.

"Well… I'm clumsy so I'm not going to do it" Rinto declined before Cloud spoke out, so the other three Avalanche tried to pressed the buttons at the same time.

At first try….. Cloud was too fast to pressed the button, made the blonde warrior got a glare from Barret and a laugh from the younger blonde.

Second try…. Cloud was to slow because he accidently looked at Tifa's big boobs until he blushed… When the girl asked 'What happened?' Cloud shook his head so fast with a blush on his face.

Third try… Finally they pressed the button at the same time, opening the door.

"Well at least we did it…" Cloud said as he nervously laughed, the three of them continued to run until the exit but they got ambushed with some Shin-Ra MPs.

"Well…. Shit" Rinto cursed as the MPs surrounded them, he thought he will show them his power but well in the end they will win this battle after all. Rinto finally decided that this is not the right time to do that.

Then his blue sapphire eyes caught a man wearing suit that he recognized as the President Shin-Ra. Rinto sighed heavily as he readied to fight the air buster…. The next boss in the game. He didn't hear their conversation because his gaze turned to the ground where he changed his blue natural eyes into red. Then changed it again as the group of MPs retreated and air buster is show up.

'Well I guess this is not my lucky day' Rinto thought as he stood beside Cloud, Tifa and Barret on the other side of the air buster. Cloud and Rinto unsheathed their swords, Tifa readied her fighting style and Barret readied his assault gun.

Cloud first charged with his bolt materia, sending some electricity toward the robot. Secondly was Tifa who gave some punches and kicks toward the robot, then Barret who shoot it up. Rinto prepared to concentrate harder, making all his body surrounded by the electricity even his sword is surrounded too. Then he launched himself toward the air buster, making the electricity spread in the robot's machine. Rinto suddenly smirked evilly beside Cloud, having an idea how to make it fast.

But suddenly the air buster attacked with the missiles, making the group panted heavily but Rinto suddenly jumped toward it.

"Rinto! What do ya think you doin?!" Barret yelled.

"Rinto!" Cloud and Tifa shouted at the same time. Rinto then surrounded by the lightning again and smirked.

"Limit Break: Lightning Bazooka" Rinto yelled as he aimed his palm toward the machine, gathering some power then shoot it immediately getting the robot into some damages. Cloud wasted no time to stab the robot into the head…. Ending the fight.

Rinto kneeled down as he panted heavily, some sweats making his hair and clothes became wet. Tifa leaning into the railing while Barret panted and glared at the robot. Cloud panted but kneeled down beside the younger blonde. He then pulled the young boy to his feet.

"You okay Cloud?" Rinto asked as he looked toward the blonde warrior.

"Yes. But what about you? You look so pale" Cloud said as he looked closely toward the younger blonde who smiled a little.

"Nah. I'm alright" Rinto grinned ear to ear, but then the air buster exploded making both of them fell. Cloud reacted as he hold the cable in one hand and grabbed Rinto's hand with the other hand.

"Cloud! Rinto!" Tifa shouted as the older blonde almost lost his grip toward the cable.

"Dammit it's too far! I can't reach it!" Barret yelled as he tried to reach the two blondes, but Rinto suddenly had a headache and grabbed his head with his free hand.

"Ugh! W-What is it? Ahh!" Rinto painfully looked up, only to find Cloud's worried face.

"Rinto! Are you alright?!" Cloud yelled as he gripped the other blonde's hand tighter, but Rinto screamed again and suddenly lost his consciousness.

"Shit?! Cloud! Is that kid alright?!" Barret yelled as he saw that the younger blonde closed his eyes and his head hung low.

"I don't know! I can't check him up in this position?!" Cloud yelled as the cable snapped a bit by bit.

"Cloud don't die yet! There's many things I need to tell you about!" Tifa shouted as her eyes teared up a bit.
