Chapter 6

October 14, 9:00 A.M. ~Temple Of The Ancients~(Picture Room)

*Sephiroth is leaned against the Black Materia's altar at the end of the room*

Sephiroth: Is it true? That the planet's actually weakening? And it's all Shinra's fault...I should never have joined with them.

*Sephiroth looks at all the pictures and inscriptions*

Sephiroth: What exactly do these mean? `Ina Lefa Es Ulwuys Cinnactad Ti Unithar'.

*Sephiroth closes his eyes*

Sephiroth: ...Wait...there's more... `Und Ull Lefa Es Ulwuys Cinnactad Ti Me'. `Whan E Uwukan, Whi Well Halp Me'? Whi Well Halp Me Dastriy Tha Levas Thut Tea Me Diwn...Sapherith...'

*Sephiroth stands up and unsheathes the Masamune*

*Swinging the blade around professionally, he suddenly slashes deeply into the ground*

Sephiroth: What is it you want?! I...don't understand...

*From the corner of his eyes, glistening tears stream silently down his pale face*

October 14, 9:30 A.M. ~Gold Saucer~(Battle Arena)

Cloud: Ughh...Where am I?

Reno: I don't know if you've ever been here before, it's the battle arena of Gold Saucer.

Cloud: ?! Who are you?

Reno: Do you truly wish to know? Right then. My name is Reno Tarshil, head Turk of Shinra Inc.

Cloud: A Turk? What exactly do you do?

Reno: Jeez...How old are you? You ask too many questions.

Cloud: I'm 14 years old, and please tell me about you and what you do.

Reno: Well, it's against regulations to tell you my age. But I can tell you that we're involved in a lot of fun stuff. Murder, stalking, anything the President needs us for. Of course we get down to a good old drink at the bar after a good job. But yeah, this job's been great, I'm quitting tomorrow.

Cloud: Why?

Reno: You ask too many damn questions. I'm quitting because everyone else in the Turks are so lazy. All the work goes to me, plus I don't have any buddies in there. So I'll be taking jobs like a mercenary. You know, fighter for hire.

Cloud: That's cool, but why did you take me along? I'm mean, you didn't have to kidnap me from Gongaga.

Reno: I heard that you need a lift to Midgar. So I wanted to pitch in a little.

Cloud: Um...Reno?

Reno: Yeah, what?

Cloud: Thanks.

October 14, 10:00 A.M. ~Nibelheim~(Tifa's House)

*Tifa yawns under her bed covers*

Tifa: Cloud...I wonder if you've left already...I haven't been by your house for a couple days because I don't want to believe that you're gone...

*She opens her window and a light breeze is flowing through*

Tifa: I want...

*The breeze ruffles her hair a bit*

Tifa: I want to make sure he's not here!

*She throws her pillow at the wall and gets dressed in her blue dress*

Tifa: I'll be back! I'm just going out for a while!

*Tifa slams the door shut*

Tifa's Dad: Tifa! Oh...Dammit...She's gone...

*He looks out the window*

Tifa's Dad: She's going to Cloud's house...
