Chapter 88: The Bombs
August 12, 0011
The mayhem of the previous day, of course, did not decide the fate of Eros Nova.
Tifa stood in front of the mirror. She was wearing her black leather tank top, along with her black leather shorts and back skirt flap. It was what she had worn as president, as she would, after fourteen years, finally rejoin her old life.
If she survived long enough, that is.
Her body was that of a twenty-four-year-old, despite the fact that she would be thirty-eight counting those fourteen years, and forty-seven if she added the nine years' worth of memories from the original timeline.
She had two items attached to her belt.
One was the hand mirror with the rifle picture carved on it.
The other was the Chronus Wand; she planned to destroy it once she resumed her life.
And then, Cloud approached her from behind. He had the nanite diffuser and the radiation detector with him.
Tifa turned to face her husband, and stroked his spiky hair.
"This is it," she said.
"This is it," he echoed. "How will we know when the bombs are armed?"
It was an important question; once the bombs were armed, they would only have three hours to disarm them before they went off. Before they were armed, they would be impossible to detect, and impossible to disarm as well. Thus, it was a crucial three-hour window.
"The radiation detector will alert us," Tifa replied.
Cloud then scanned his wife's belt.
"You're bringing the Chronus Wand?" he asked.
"So I can destroy it when we're done," she replied.
"And the hand mirror?" he asked, even more skeptically.
"I dunno," she replied. "Something in my heart told me to take it today."
Cloud was not sure of what to think of that. It seemed off, but he trusted Tifa with his life.
"Give me a hug," she commanded.
Cloud wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her in.
Tifa gently and lovingly wrapped her arms around his neck.
She thought about their time at the orphanage.
She thought about their time on the farm.
She thought about their time in Bolton, with Miranda and Riggs.
"It was great growing up with you again," she said.
"It was great growing up without again," Cloud echoed.
"And going to the prom with you," Tifa added as she struggled not to tear up. "And renewing our vows. And falling in love with you all over again!"
She gently pressed her lips against his.
He kissed her back, and gently lifted her off the ground.
"Alright," Tifa announced. "Home stretch. Let's get to it."
They stepped off their boat and began to make their way onto the island.
As they walked inland, Tifa gave the boat one sad, longing look; it had practically been their home away from home for the past fourteen years. Now, they were done with it.
They found a rental station, and rented a motorcycle so they could traverse the island as fast as they could. From that point on, all they could do was watch the radiation detector, and wait.
At eleven in the morning, the radiation detector began to activate. Green dots began to appear on its screen.
TIME TO DETONATION: 3:00
"It's game time," Tifa announced as she mounted the motorcycle.
By the end of the day, they would either finally be back to their old lives, or dead.
THE FIRST BOMB
TIME TO DETONATION: 2:39
Cloud and Tifa rode to the first bomb as the minutes slowly slipped away. They had made it to the first bomb, the nearest bomb, which was in a bunker outside of a lighthouse on the island's eastern coast.
The bomb looked quite menacing. It was green, seven feet high and cylindrical. A low humming sound could be heard.
"So how does this work?" Tifa asked.
"There's no controls on this nanite diffuser," Cloud replied.
"Try waving it in front of the bomb," Tifa suggested.
Cloud duly waived the nanite diffuser in front of the bomb.
The bomb went from green to black, and the humming ceased.
"That's one less risk," Cloud said triumphantly.
Tifa shook her head.
"Remember what the journal said," she warned. "If one goes off, they all will. We have to neutralize all eight of them to save the island."
With that, she led him up the stairs and out of the bunker.
THE SECOND BOMB
TIME TO DETONATION: 2:24
The second bomb was found in a familiar location.
"This is where Aerith stayed," Tifa began as she and Cloud entered the hotel, passing the restaurant where Aerith and Pete had met. "It looks like it's probably downstairs somewhere."
They found the bomb in a sub basement, and neutralized it without incident.
THE THIRD BOMB
TIME TO DETONATION: 2:02
The third bomb was found at the foot of a hill a couple of miles inland.
There was a bunker, just like the first time. Tifa led Cloud down the stairs and neutralized the bomb.
But when they turned around to climb the stairs again, they were greeted with an unpleasant surprise.
It was Lynn.
"President Strife," Lynn greeted. "It's so nice to meet you, now that I finally knownwho you really are."
Tifa gasped in surprise.
"Don't worry," Lynn continued. "I figured the whole thing out. You are President Strife. Sephiroth used the Regenerator he stole from your late friend and turned you into children. You then used the Chronus Wand to go back in time and grow so you could be adults again now. And, along the way, you just happened to meet little old me."
"You got it," Cloud confirmed. "Now, could you please get out of our way? We have business to take care of."
"You mean deactivate the remaining five bombs?" Lynn taunted. "I think not. I stole Aerith's journal. I know what happens if I absorb the Lifestream."
Tifa sighed.
"This has been done way too many times," she said. "Will you please get out of our way? We need to neutralize the rest of the bombs in two hours!"
"Fuck no!" Lynn dismissed. "I'm going to-"
Tifa's foot drove hard into Lynn's crotch.
"I don't have time for this," Tifa sighed.
Lynn groaned and collapsed to the ground.
Cloud looked at Tifa in disbelief.
"You did know it really hurts for a woman to get kicked there, right?" Tifa asked.
They quickly ran from the bunker before Lynn recovered.
THE FOURTH BOMB
TIME TO DETONATION: 1:47
Cloud and Tifa found the fourth bomb in a bunker at the western extremity of the prude side.
Tifa quickly neutralized it with the nanite diffuser.
"That does it for the prude side!" she announced.
"So the other four are on the nude side?" Cloud naturally asked.
"You got it," Tifa replied with a grin. "The four biggest rods on that side, to be exact."
THE FIFTH BOMB
TIME TO DETONATION: 1:23
Cloud and Tifa found the fifth bomb under the nude side's boardwalk.
As Tifa neutralized the bomb, the sounds of cheers and applause were audible from above.
"Were they cheering for us?" the perplexed Cloud asked.
Tifa gave another sly grin, closed her eyes, and shook her head.
"Couples will sometimes have sex out in the open here," she explained. "The bystanders cheer them on."
"Don't tell me this is what Cid and Shera will be doing tomorrow," Cloud said.
"I don't want to think about it," she groaned.
But she did think about what Lynn had said.
What did she mean by 'late friend?'
THE SIXTH BOMB
TIME TO DETONATION: 1:02
Cloud and Tifa found the sixth bomb on the south coast of the nude side. The bunker where the bomb was kept was hidden behind a set of bushes. They easily pushed them aside and headed downstairs to the bomb.
Tifa neutralized the bomb with the greatest of ease, but began to laugh to herself as she did so.
"What's so funny?" Cloud demanded.
"A big long rod hidden in a bush," she replied.
"Grow up!" he sighed.
"Hey, I'm one of the few girls who actually has one!" she cackled.
THE SEVENTH BOMB
TIME TO DETONATION: 0:42
Cloud and Tifa found the seventh bomb in a grassland that was technically on the nude side, but was in a deserted area.
Tifa neutralized the bomb.
With that, all the lights disappeared from the radiation detector.
"We did it!" Cloud announced triumphantly.
Tifa shook her head.
"There's still one more bomb," she reminded him.
"But there's nothing on the radiation detector," he pointed out. "Are you sure we counted right?"
"I know we counted right," Tifa insisted. "We only neutralized seven. One is still out there."
Cloud glanced at the radiation detector again.
"Why isn't it showing here?" he asked.
"There's only one explanation," she replied. "It's so deep and hidden that it can't be detected. It could be anywhere on the island!"
Cloud was silent.
Tifa shook her head. They were looking for a needle in a haystack.
"I….I don't know what to do," she sighed.
And then, her conscience smacked her in the face.
Don't give up yet, she thought. Think! Where have you heard of those devices before?
Tifa closed her eyes.
She remembered Aerith's journal.
FLASHBACK….
"Mr. Sephiroth," I began.
"Call me Sephiroth," he commanded.
"Do you know what year this is?" I asked.
"Of course I do," Sephiroth replied. "It's 0002."
Yeah, somebody had to break it to him.
So I shook my head.
"It's 0006," I informed him.
I instantly regretted it.
I knew Sephiroth was unpredictable, and I had it in the back of my head that he might lash out at me.
"There's no way I could have been in that cell for four years," he said calmly.
That was a relief.
Behind him stood a strange long line, but it didn't look like he could hibernate in it.
….END FLASHBACK
Tifa opened her eyes.
The awe of hope filled her.
"I know where the last bomb is!" she exclaimed.
"Where?" Cloud asked.
"Leon Brave's house," she replied. "Where they took Aerith!"
THE EIGHTH BOMB
TIME TO DETONATION: 0:27
Tifa rode the motorcycle with direction as she disregarded all traffic safety. Cloud was behind her, with his hands wrapped around her midriff and holding on for dear life.
She rode the motorcycle as fast as it would go, taking the sharpest turns, and refusing to stop for anything.
Soon, the road became eerily deserted; she knew they were close.
About a mile from the house, they rode by a familiar sight.
It was the black boat that Lynn sailed.
Only it was on its side, and half of it was sinking into the sea.
"Well," Tifa said, "isn't that justice? That boat tanked out on that green-haired bitch and nature took its course."
They soon reached the house, where Tifa parked the motorcycle in front of the front door, allowing it to fall to its side.
Inside the house, Cloud and Tifa stood for a moment in the family room before the latter spotted the stairs leading into the basement.
"Down there," she commanded.
Cloud followed her down the stairs. They then found themselves in the basement, whereupon Tifa saw something she had only read about.
"There's the tube," she said.
"What's it for?" Cloud asked.
"You don't really want to know," she replied.
She then led him through another door.
Cloud then found himself in a long white hallway. Behind him, he saw a sign on the door that read: WARNING: BASEMENT OF IDIOTS.
They continued through the white hallway until they reached the plastic tunnel. They went through without incident, and then found themselves in the corridor with red carpet and orange walls.
They continued down that hall until they reached a flight of stairs. Cloud followed Tifa; he knew she had read Aerith's journal, and knew she knew where she was going.
"We're in the maze," Tifa announced. "The bomb's just beyond here."
"We have to get through this maze to get to it?" he inquired.
"That's right," she replied as she checked her watch. "And we have less than fifteen minutes to do it."
Cloud and Tifa then began to trek through the maze, though the latter knew Aerith had not given a detail-by-detail account of it. When they reached a dead end, they simply tried a speed walk through a new corridor.
"Hold it right there!" a familiar voice suddenly demanded.
Slowly and cautiously, Cloud and Tifa stopped in their tracks, and turned around.
Lynn was standing there, pointing two sawed-off shotguns at both Cloud and Tifa.
Cloud and Tifa both froze.
They regretted not having weapons out, and even if they did, they would not have the time to use them.
"It's funny," Lynn continued. "A trip back through time, taking fourteen years to repair your relationship, dodging obstacle after obstacle, only to be shot dead by me when you were about to pick up where you left off. You almost made it."
"This isn't about us," Tifa replied. "The whole island depends on that bomb being stopped."
"This is where it ends," Lynn said. "You may have escaped with the Chronus Wand back at Bolton, but if you reach for that thing, I'll blow your head off. All you can do now is watch everything play out."
"Lynn," Tifa calmly began, "this isn't going to work the way you think. In less than ten minutes, that last bomb is going to go off. It will set all the others off, killing everyone on the island. You'll be dead by the time the Lifestream even gets here. Your only way out of this alive is to let us neutralize the last bomb."
"I beg to differ," Lynn retorted as she pointed to Tifa's waist.
Tifa glanced to where Lynn was pointing; the Chronus Wand was still on her buckle.
"I'll use the Chronus Wand to go back in time, well away from this island. And as soon as it goes up, I'll reap the profits."
Cloud and Tifa both stood still. She was correct; there was no escape. If they tried to attack her, tried to run, or use the Chronus Wand themselves, she would shoot them both dead in an instant.
"That wand needs to be destroyed," Tifa said. "It's too dangerous."
"Your opinion," Lynn replied. "You're either going to give the wand to me, or I'll take it from your dead bodies. Either way, I'm taking it."
Tifa desperately tried to think of what to do. She could not kick Lynn this time; she stood ten feet away.
"Actually," Lynn said, as she shook her green hair, "I don't trust you. I think I'll shorten your lives by a few minutes."
She aimed each saw-off at Cloud and Tifa's foreheads, slowly running her fingers toward the triggers.
And then, suddenly, Lynn's head jerked backwards.
Her eyes began to bulge.
She began to scream.
Tifa looked beyond, and saw the hose attached to Lynn's head.
The canister hose vacuum that Tanya released over four years earlier had snuck up from behind and got her; it had been roaming the maze that entire time.
The vacuum pulled at Lynn's green hair with such force that her scalp quickly peeled off, exposing her skull. The hose then latched onto her skull for two seconds before sucking a piece out, and sucking the contents beyond, killing Lynn instantly.
Lynn's limp hands dropped both of the guns.
Cloud quickly took his buster sword and sliced right through the vacuum's tank, shutting it off for good.
The hose dropped to the ground, along with Lynn's remains. Her body was still intact, but her head was gone.
The girl they had met at the orphanage, whom they had met again at the reform school, who burdened them at crucial times for the past fourteen years, was now gone for good.
Tifa approached Lynn's headless corpse.
"So long, Lynn," she said triumphantly. "It was a great fourteen years."
She then immediately recalled the situation they were in.
"Come on!" she commanded.
She led Cloud through the maze. Her instinct led her, and soon, she and Cloud found themselves in the tiled hall.
They ran into the sitting room.
"The last bomb's just up ahead," she said.
Beyond the sitting room were the four cells.
"It's behind one of these doors," Tifa said.
They opened one; it was the cell Tanya had been in.
They opened another; it was the cell Chrissy, a.k.a. Captain Mast, had been in.
They opened a third; it was the cell Aerith had been in.
"Process of elimination," Tifa muttered as she approached the fourth door; the final door.
She opened the door.
It was the room where Sephiroth had been.
And it was also the room where Sephiroth stood.
"You two!" he exclaimed. "But how?! I turned you into children and-"
He then spotted the Chronus Wand strapped to Tifa's belt.
"I see," Sephiroth added. "Very clever. You used the Chronus Wand to go back in time and grow up in the past. Even I didn't think of that. However, that only means such a long effort was in vain. This bomb must go off."
"We don't have time for this," Tifa dismissed. "We have only two minutes to neutralize the bomb. If that bomb goes off, all three of us will die!"
In response, Sephiroth snapped his fingers. A forcefield appeared around him, and lasted for three seconds.
"This will protect me from any explosion," he said. "I'll finally be able to absorb the Lifestream. What I failed to do three years ago, I'll finally stop you."
"Unless we stop you," Cloud retorted as he scanned his nemesis. "I have some surprising news for you. You seem to have forgotten your sword. You can't kill us."
"I'm done trying to kill you," Sephiroth sighed. "I'll just turn you two back into children again!"
With that, he pulled out the Regenerator.
Before Cloud could react, Sephiroth fired a beam from the Regenerator in his direction.
One touch of the beam would make him ten years old again.
But Tifa held up the hand mirror.
The beam hit the mirror, reflected, and struck Sephiroth.
In shock, Sephiroth dropped the Regenerator to the floor, smashing it to pieces.
"You!" Sephiroth exclaimed in shock. "You…."
"That's right," Cloud said triumphantly.
And, as Cloud and Tifa watched, Sephiroth began to shrink until he was only five feet tall.
Sephiroth, the villain who summoned Meteor, who had intended to become a god that day, was now only ten years old.
"Nooooooooooo!"
Sephiroth then reached for the Chronus Wand on Tifa's belt.
Cloud immediately grabbed and restrained him.
"I don't think so," he said.
With that, Tifa ran to the bomb and quickly neutralized it, with less than seconds to spare.
The bomb went dark, and, with it, so did Sephiroth's plans of becoming a god.
"Game over," Cloud said to the now-child Sephiroth. "You lose."
And then, Sephiroth did something that neither Cloud nor Tifa had seen coming from a mile away.
He started to cry. He then began to stomp his feet.
Both Cloud and Tifa, unable to resist, began to crack up.
Sephiroth then managed to wiggle out of Cloud's grip. He quickly darted past the cells, though the sitting room, and into the tiled hall, disappearing into the maze.
"After him!" Cloud shouted as he darted through the sitting room and into the tiled hallway, disappearing into the maze.
Cloud and Tifa followed him, but lost him there. They searched the maze for an hour, getting to know all the corners and dead-ends, but there was no sign of Sephiroth.
He had escaped.
Of course, he was no longer whom he had been.
He was now a child, incapable of lifting his masamune.
Any adult could overpower him.
He was now helpless.
AN HOUR LATER…..
Zack and Yuffie walked hand-in-hand down the path in a deserted grassland.
Yuffie was extremely quiet.
"What's on your mind?" Zack asked.
"I almost died yesterday," Yuffie replied solemnly. "I think…I've been rethinking my life, and…"
"And?" inquired Zack.
Yuffie stopped, and placed her hands on her love's strong arms.
"I think I'm ready to tell you my fourth regret," she announced.
Zack wrapped his arms around his girlfriend's waist.
"My fourth regret is…." she began.
And then, as she was about to finish, two very familiar figures came into distance over the hill.
"Cloud!" Yuffie exclaimed. "Tifa!"
Once Cloud and Tifa spotted Zack and Yuffie, both of them ran to them and hugged them, with Tifa picking Yuffie up off the ground as she did so.
"You've only been gone for a few weeks!" the perplexed Zack pointed out.
"For us, it was a lot longer," Tifa sighed.
"Yeah," added Yuffie, "about that…"
"Have you seen Sephiroth?" Zack asked. "I heard he had some plans for today."
"You won't have to worry about Sephiroth for a while," Cloud assured him.
"Those plans were foiled?" Zack asked.
"You could say that," Cloud replied.
"We saved the island in time for the wedding," Tifa added.
Both Zack and Yuffie gave Cloud and Tifa a solemn look.
"Oh yeah," Zack said. "About the wedding."
"Did something happen?" Cloud asked.
"You could say that," Zack replied.
ANOTHER HOUR LATER….
Zack stared at Cloud and Tifa as if they had twenty heads.
"Let me get this straight," he began. "Sephiroth turned you two into children, and you used the Chronus Wand to travel to the past and spend fourteen years growing up?"
"You got it," Cloud replied.
Zack then turned to his girlfriend.
"And you knew the whole time?" he asked.
"Not the whole time," Yuffie replied. "Only after reading Miranda's letter. I know all about the Lane Cousins impersonation and all that."
Tifa sighed and looked at Yuffie.
"Miranda really was something," she said.
"She was such a trip, wasn't she?" Yuffie giggled.
"So what now?" Cloud asked. "With….you know….?"
"Cid's called a meeting," Zack replied. "He wants us all there. He's obviously going to decide what to do with all the wedding stuff."
"I just can't believe Shera would betray us like that," Tifa sighed.
"Jessie was going to turn herself in after the wedding," Yuffie added. "At least her name's been cleared."
But there was still a big gap.
Tomorrow, there would be an empty wedding venue.
It would all go to waste.
THAT EVENING……
Cloud and Tifa checked into the resort where Cid and Shera would have been married, as they had nowhere else to go.
But as the rest of their friends were there, the tearful reunions would begin.
The most heart-wrenching moment was when Tifa saw her father and daughter, who arrived late; they had not gotten wind of Shera's death.
Tifa had broken down and cried at that moment; although it was a few weeks for them, it was fourteen years for her. Although she did not show it during their trip to the past, largely because she knew there was nothing she could do about it, Tifa had been hurting every day without her daughter.
Then, Cloud and Tifa began to reunite with each of their friends, one by one.
When Tifa reunited with the 0007 Elena, the latter explained everything that had happened in the past few months, from the Deepground situation, right up to the late Shera's cheating antics on the day of her death.
"Maybe it was for the best you weren't there," Elena had said to Tifa. "There would have been a lot of jealous girls."
Tifa placed her face in her hands, knowing that this was another reference to her breasts.
Of course, Cloud and Tifa reunited with Tobin and Cissnei, and the latter was amazed.
"So that was you back at Bone Village!" Cissnei said. "Thanks for saving me!"
After many tearful reunions, it was time for the meeting that Cid had called.
Everyone was seated in the hotel restaurant where the rehearsal dinner was to have taken place. The head table, for the bride and groom, was obviously vacant. Cloud and Tifa were with Brian and Ada. Tobin and Cissnei were seated together nearby.
Vincent and Lucrecia were seated together, along with Zack and Yuffie. Elena was sitting on Tseng's lap, and his right hand was on her butt. Barret and Jessie were also seated together with their son, Dyne, with Jessie resting her head on Barret's shoulder; she had never been more relieved in her life. Of course, she was wearing her wedding band once again.
Reeve and Parker were seated with Sage; the fourteen-year girl was glancing at Zack every now and then, still disappointed he and Yuffie were still together. The 0007 Reno was seated with DiStefano, though they were staying in separate rooms, and DiStefano still had not told him her full name. The 0007 Rude and Red XIII did not have dates; they were the odd ones out.
And then, the elephant in the room was finally addressed. Cid went to the front of the restaurant, and signaled for everyone to quiet down.
Everyone did so in two seconds; they all felt an unpleasant address coming.
"Okay, ladies and gentlemen," Cid began. "I think we know why we're here."
Everyone was silent. They all knew what had just happened, and they all knew what was supposed to have happened the next day.
"Tomorrow, as you all know," Cid continued, "Shera and I were supposed to get married at this resort. But, for obvious reasons, that's not happening. Don't feel bad for me. My only regret now is that I didn't find out how much of a traitor that bitch actually was."
Everyone was still silent. Despite the manner of how the relationship ended, they had no doubt he was still hurting.
"All that said," Cid continued, "this leaves us with an empty venue for tomorrow. Everything is booked, set up, decorated….in one word, nonrefundable."
There was more silence. It would be an awkward day tomorrow, with all the wedding staff and decorations set up, with no bride and groom actually saying their vows.
"I would hate to see it all go to waste," he continued. "So if anyone wants to get married, you better let me know!"
Finally, the silence broke.
Some were murmuring, realizing the situation. Others began to laugh, thinking it was some kind of a joke. Still more were grumbling, thinking such a comment was hardly appropriate.
DiStefano was looking at Reno as if to say, "You better not. It's only a first date."
"Right here!" called a female voice suddenly.
Zack began to laugh, almost appalled that someone would actually want to get married down here on a whim.
His brief laughter lasted less than two seconds; that voice sounded awfully close to him.
Slowly, he turned his head.
Yuffie's hand was in the air; she was the one who said it.
And she was not laughong at all.
A moment later, everyone's eyes were on Yuffie.
"You are serious, right?" Cid then asked.
"Dead serious!" Yuffie replied enthusiastically, with her hand still in the air.
Zack's mouth began to dry. He had thought it was a joke at first, much like everyone else. But now, it was obvious that this was not the case.
"Yuffie," he began. "Do you really mean it?"
Yuffie nodded, standing up.
"Zack," she replied. "I never told you my fourth regret, but I think it's obvious now. My fourth regret was saying no to the most incredible man in the world when he proposed to me last year."
Everyone, including Zack, was silent.
The mood suddenly became one of hope.
"What about the epic thing?" Zack asked; it had been the first thing that had come to mind.
"That epic thing I mentioned last year?" Yuffie replied.
Zack nodded.
"It's stupid," Yuffie answered as tears began to well up in her eyes. "Miranda was right. We need to live our lives to the fullest, and we can't shoot down a great experience. I know I'm nineteen, and still young, and I'll probably live a long time, but, you know…."
Everyone was still gazing at her, but her attention was solely focused on Zack.
Yuffie sniffled, dried the tears from her eyes, and continued.
"Well, that's it," she said. "You never know."
Everyone wanted to applaud, but there was something they were all waiting for: Zack's response.
Finally, he spoke.
"Are you proposing to me?" he cautiously asked.
"No," Yuffie replied. "You proposed to me last year. I'm just finally getting around to saying 'yes.' But what I am asking is can we get married here tomorrow, with all the people we love surrounding us. Look, even our parents are here. So, come on, Zachary Fair, what to you say?"
Zack now had everyone's attention on him. It was true; it was a once in a lifetime chance.
He thought about the hurt when she turned him down a year ago.
He knew he would inflict the same hurt if he turned her down now.
He realized that, had she accepted a year ago, they would probably be married by now.
He was well aware that she had grown up a lot in the past year and a half.
And, at that moment, he realized the proper answer to her question.
"Yes," he said.
The entire restaurant roared with cheers.
Yuffie smiled, tears streaming down her cheecks, and threw her arms around her fiancé, kissing him and leaping into his arms, wrapping her legs around his waist.
"I love you, Yuffie," Zack declared.
"I love you, too!" Yuffie replied. "But I can't support myself!"
Zack duly wrapped his arms around Yuffie's waist.
"I'm your fiancee!" Yuffie reminded him. "Butt! Butt!"
Zack placed both his hands on Yuffie's butt.
"Save it for the honeymoon!" Rude shouted.
