Rufus Shinra sat at his desk, an insane smile on his face. He had just sent out his two clones that would go and destroy Avalanche, save for the Ancient and Sephiroth. Yes, he needed them very much alive if his experiments were to succeed. Cracking his knuckles, Rufus smiled evilly. When he got his hands on those 2, they would wish they were dead. Then, only then, would he kill them. Evil laughter rang out through his office, the kind that chilled you to the bone.
Barret snapped his head up. He had just had the wildest dream! Tifa reviving Sephiroth, Christy and Sephiroth getting together, a love triangle, and Spike almost killing Tifa. I need to lay off those pain reliever pills. Barret concluded, getting up to check on Marlene and get a drink of water. Walking down the hall, he cracked Marlene’s door open a bit, peeking in to see his little girl fast asleep. He smiled, and climbed back into bed after both tasks were accomplished. He just hoped his dream was just that, a dream.
Nanaki felt a shiver run through the planet. Something wasn’t right. It seemed that Jenova was back, and now the planet’s guardian was going to pick off the threat, one by one. He wished his grandfather was here to give advice, but he shoved that thought out of his head. He looked up to the moon, hoping that the others were all right.
What! She wouldn’t! Yuffie thought watching Tifa slowly walk toward
Cloud, murder gleaming in her fierce gaze. Out of nowhere, a sword, a katana,
flew into Tifa’s hand that caught it with ease, and unsheathing it with
god-like speed. Cloud stood there, paralyzed. He remembered his last fight
with Tifa all to well. Looking up, he silently pleaded with Sephiroth,
who stood there frozen, but his face said that Tifa must have manipulated
him, and now he couldn’t move. Christy was also frozen, but with fear,
and not from a spell. “You’re fate is sealed Cloud Strife, you should know
not to mess with the Cetra.” Tifa stated, looking down murderously at Cloud
who was frozen with shock at her words. Slowly, she put the sword to Cloud’s
neck, but then her eyes darted to where Yuffie was sitting, frozen. Christy
held her breath, too scared to watch. “Duck.” She said, throwing her sword.
They heard the sound of sword piercing flesh, but it wasn’t Yuffie’s even
though she cried out in surprise.
“Come out, if you want to live.” Sephiroth said, letting go of a trembling
Christy. A young girl, about 20, stood. She had long blonde hair and striking
green eyes. Her left leg was bleeding, Tifa’s katana was stuck deep in
her leg. Tifa snorted, and left the room, picking up Reno on the way, her
katana sheathing itself, before disappearing. Sephiroth walked over to
the girl, looking at her intently, before asking, “Who are you and what
are you doing here?” The others weakly nodded save for Cloud, who was still
frozen in place. “My name is Annita. I’m here because I heard a ruckus,
so I decided to check it out. I hid so that girl wouldn’t get me, but I
guess she did.” Annita stated, wincing as she looked down out her wound.
“I’m so sorry for Tifa’s behavior! She’s usually not like this!” Yuffie
said, hopping out of bed, with only a long nightshirt. She then proceeded
to cure Annita. Christy’s eyes narrowed. Annita looked startlingly like
Sephiroth, and that Ancient, Aeris, was her name, she wasn’t too sure.
Then a thought struck her, what if they did ‘something’ and then the Cetra
had gotten pregnant and then… Stopping herself, she reasoned, Annita looked
20, which meant that the Ancient had her when she was 2, which wasn’t possible.
She sighed. That still didn’t shake off the resemblance that Annita shared
with the general.
Tifa sat beside Reno, brushing hair out of his eyes. His strands of crimson reminded her about the blood he had shed. Sector 7, Biggs, Wedge, Jessie, all lost because of the man who was lying beside her on the bed. The man she was falling for. God! She mentally slapped herself. Get a hold of yourself Tifa! You almost kill Cloud and that girl, she couldn’t think of that presence of that girl as innocent, and all you can think of is Reno. You’re hopeless Lockheart. She thought to herself as she looked down at Reno. He had saved her, no doubt. But why had she felt so much power flow through her veins when she felt anger towards Cloud? Did the planet want so badly for her to kill Cloud? This was so confusing…
Yuffie sat silently, after Tifa had cooled down, and her eyes were her
normal color, they had all sat down together and started eating, even Annita.
Not liking the silence, she stood up, while hitting her fist on the table.
Everyone looked up, except for Annita and Sephiroth who were silently sipping
their soup. “Let’s go out and do something fun! Gawd! When was the last
time anyone laughed around here?” Yuffie stated, eyeing the members warily.
“The kids’ got a point there, maybe we should go do something fun. But
the Gold Saucer is too far away, so what can we do?” Tifa was holding back
Yuffie so she wouldn’t kill Reno, then she suddenly spoke up. “Karaoke!”
Tifa exclaimed happily. Yuffie and Christy cheered, while the guys sweat
dropped. Singing wasn’t the type of stuff they do in public. Man, the only
time I sing is when I get drunk. Huh, maybe if I get a hangover, Tifa can
be my nurse, hehehe. Reno thought, a grin on his face. Singing! What
are the girls thinking! I couldn’t sing in front of Reno! Cloud thought,
a horrified look on his face. But, the girls looked so hopeful and excited,
he nodded. This will be amusing, maybe I can just watch puppet and Reno
make fools out of themselves. I wonder how good Christy sings… Sephiroth
thought, with a thoughtful expression on his face. With another cheer,
the girls dragged the guys to a Karaoke Bar.
