The sun shined peacefully upon the planet now that the darkness of Sephiroth was gone. No one had anything more to fear, no Sephiroth, no Meteor... just peace... but something strange was happening inside the City of The Ancients. Inside the lake where Aeris was resting, a shine appeared at the bottom. Could it be a miracle or a message? After the defeat of Sehpiroth, the members scattered throughout the world to settle in their lives. Some of the members of Avalanche stayed together to rebuild Midgar, a better Midgar that would not use Mako as a source of power. Since Sephiroth and Aeris were dead, it was believed that there were no more Cetra... but there is one more in the world... one more who existed for a reason. But what reason? Sephiroth was dead and he no longer exists... or does he? He may not exists but his soul does, he may reform himself... could this Cetra have a connection to Sephiroth or does he exist for another reason. At the City of the Ancients, resting on surface of the water was a young girl in a pink dress and with long brown hair. Her eyes opened revealing a familiar green glow, she was alive. Perhaps she too had a reason for her revival. As for the one Cetra who had a reason for existence, he was inside the Gold Saucer. Strangely this Cetra had the most unlikely of a profile, he had the youth of a young child, and he was small. He wore a gray cloak and had a black robe, black pants, gloves, and shoes. Rumors said that he was at the battle square, this is what attracted a large number of the last remaining of the Shinra Soldiers. No one knew who they worked for since both Presidents of Shinra were said to be dead. The boy was being chased by who ever commanded the last of the Shinra. He was in trouble and was in need of help, but who would help him?

As Aeris opened her eyes she coughed some water. She swimmed to the shore, still coughing water.

After resting and getting dry on the sun, she started walking slowly, still weak from her death sleep. All she could think of was the boy.

'I need to help him...save him from them... He's our only hope now...'

*As the Soldiers walked into the main hall that lead to all the squares, they split up and started to search all of them. The boy walked up the steps of the Battle Square, the back of his cloak flowing behind him. He reached the desk area and that's when he had an unfaithful encounter with the Soldiers. They turned toward him they spoke to eachother.*

Soldier1: Is that the kid? He's dressed kind of oddly so I'm thinking he is.

Soldier2: Of course he is you dummy! He's got mako eyes! GET HIM!!!

*The boy ran to the museum and the Soldiers followed him making a few shots while doing so. Luckily for the boy, they missed every shot. The owner of the Gold Saucer was looking at his collections in the museum until he saw the Soldiers barge in. The boy was out of site and the owner was angry.*

Ower:HEY!!! YOU COULD BROKE SOMETHING IN HERE YOU MORONS!!!

*The Owner socked one of the Soldiers and the other soldier went off runnig.*

Soldier2:YIKES! DON'T HIT ME!!!

*The boy was hiding in the shadows behind one of the treasures and soon noticed a vent. He crawled through the vent and fell through a hole in it. Unfortunately for him, he ended up in a garbage pile.*

She couldn't take any longer, so she stayed the night at the town's inn, after eating something. When she woke up with the sun rays hitting her face and having breakfast, she felt strong again, and ready to look for the boy.

'I wonder where he is... But I won't give up. Everything will turn out fine, I just know it.'

*Naseroth got up from landing in the garbage and wiped off whatever was on his face.*

... ewww...

*He looked around with his eyes and notcied something sticking in the ground on a garbage hill. His curiousity overtook him and walked towards it, he say that it was a long handle of a sword. Strangely, the blade was sticking out and the handle was sticking in the garbage pile. He brabbed the handle with bothe hands and pulled as hard as he could. It only started to budge and soon it broke out of the hill of garbage and knocked the boy on his back and almost stabbing himself with the blade that was poking out of the garbage. As the garbage was flinged into the air, the full figure of the object was revealed as a double-edged sword. It had a strange shine to the blades.*

"Stupid Godo and his stupid plans."

Yuffie kicked a can in front of her, watching it skid across the ground. She had returned back to Wutai once it was all over, thinking, perhaps, that she could restore it to its former glory. However, it soon became clear that her father still saw her mainly as "official royal babymaker," a role that Yuffie definitely did not want. So, she left Wutai, in a huff, much as she did before, taking only a few supplies and a generous supply of materia. And that's how, she ended up here, at the Golden Saucer, almost to Midgar, where she hoped that she could find some form of sanctuary with Teef or one of the other people who stayed behind.

The Golden Saucer was surprisingly empty where she was, having wandered a long time ago away from the main path, trailing a man with pockets too big for his own good. For all she knew, she could've gone into the 'staff only' parts. Kicking another can, frustated that she had lost him in such an empty area, the can skidded and flew up, only to hit a figure in the distance, seemingly immersed in a pile of garbage. A loud shout resounded from the figure. Yuffie rushed forward, hoping another potential mark had revealed itself, "OH MY GAWD, I'M SO SORRY!"

*The figure got up holding his head with his left hand where the can hit.*

...ow...

* In his right hand was the double-edged sword he pulled from the garbage pile. He looked up at Yuffie revealing his mako eyes. The green shine that pierced through the shadows of his hood gave away the obvious reason why the Shinra were here. The shine in his eyes looked so familiar to someone the gril once knew she may have mistaken the small boy for a brief moment.*

...i-it's okay...

*He was stuttering as he spoke and was appeared to be very shy. Yet another clue to why Shinra was here, he was shy because he was never on the outside world before. The poor boy was stuck in a lab for his whole life until he escaped.*

Yuffie frowned slightly, cursing to herself in her mind, Damn it, just a little kid. Probably doesn't even have a Fire1 on him...

The boy turned to her, his face tired and full of sorrow and suddenly, Yuffie's eyes widened, taken aback by the sight before her. His eyes...they were green. Not even the color of mako green, but of another thing...of the Lifestream. And only one other person Yuffie knew had eyes like his.

"Aeris..."

The boy stuttered, each word stumbling reluctantly out of his mouth.

"..I-It's okay..."

Yuffie stared at him, frowning once more, however this time, it was for a completely different reason. Her hand grasped onto her chin as she cocked her head to the side, circling around him, examining him. He stared at her with frightened eyes, backing away slowly. Yuffie, noticing his nervousness stopped in front of him, placing her hands on her hips and grinning widely, "So...where ya from?"

...umm...uh... A big metal place.. um... I think... uh....

*He was starting to get drowzy remembering how he escaped, he saw himself in a flash back firing large bolts of lightning out of his hand in a wide spread arc. He soon became better and he felt something within his nerves, something like the flow of electricity. There was something strange about this boy, it was no wonder why the Shinra kept him captive in an underground lab for so long.*

"A big metal plate, huh?"

Yuffie bent her head to the side, looking up towards the sky. A single finger tapping her lip as her hand returned to her chin, in an exaggerated pose of 'thinking'.

"I know! Midgar, right? I don't think that huge metal plate thing is there anymore, but that's where you're talking about, right?"

Yuffie glanced at him, but seeing nothing but those hauntingly similar green eyes, she continued on.

"I'm heading over there right now. Say, why don't we go travel together? Just you and me and the open road, eh? It gets kinda boring just going by yourself."

Yeah I think I'm from where you said... uh... yeah, Midgar. Although, I think I was from somewhere below it... Okay, I'll go with you

*He started to follow her*

The villagers of Bone Village were really nice with Aeris and even lend her a boat. She thank them, promising to return to visit them.

She reached Costa del Sol and sighed as she looked at the mountains. Beyond was Gold Saucer.

"Our date... It was there..."

She giggled as she remembered the play they performed and looked over at the ship going to Junon.

"I got here too late... Should I wait for it or..."

She looked again at the mountains. She wanted to see it again, the place where she had so much fun with him...

"I shouldn't waste time...and I doubt he'll be there, but... I'm going!"

She walked happily to the towns exit, waving at people as she strolled down, smiling to the thought of revisiting Gold Saucer.

*A few Soldiers arrived at Naseroth and Yuffie's location. Yuffie readied her shurikens and threw them at the soldiers who were there, more were coming.*

Yuffie: Shinra? They're here?

*The young boy fell backwords as he didn't even have a clue on how to defend himself. He used to have such power when he escaped, but it seems as though the powers that the experiments tainted in him were gone. He did gain one power back though, but it wouldn't do much. Despite that, the boy had to try...*

S-Shinra?

Yuffie: Yeah, these guys are nothing but bunch of sick wussies!

*The boy thought to himself, he remembered the sound of that name. He also remembered that he had two purposes for being in the underground labs. More of the Shinra Remenants came and they began to fire at them. Once more Yuffie threw some of her shurikens and wiped out all but one. That remaining soldier had a sword equiped and he was about t slash yuffie, but he was stopped as he was shot with a bolt of lightning. Yuffie turned around to find the boy with his surrounded by electrical surges. Her eyes widened, she never saw anyone use magic without the requirments of materia.*

Yuffie: Hey... what are you?

*The boy looked at his hand, he got up and examined it even more.*

I-I don'y know...

Snowboarding.

A silent hobby he usually did once-in-awhile at the Gold. The sapphire mako hues lightly scanning his settlings as he began to tilt his body to the left at the slightest tilt of his body.

Surely enough the image of himself would tilt too far to the left, and cause a crash onto the snowy hills.

With lightening eyes, he leaped from the snowboard, and began to pace himself out of the Gold..

Until he had exited, his arms crossing his ribcage. Cloud Strife, the one who abet to a ruling so long ago. Flawed as he thought he had been. Maybe it was true, he was still flawed.

Cloud rested his back on the outside of the grounds, outside of the Gold. Right leg upward against the semi-chilled metal of that wall. His back firmly pressed back. An ebony gloved hand would gently swing through the spikey locks of "chocobo" ( as she said ) blond strands. "It's been awhile.." Cloud began to mouth to himself. "Since I've done anything like that."

Seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks.. Months was the correct term.. Maybe nearly a year, then again, he saw no reason for such a pathetic test. Yet, it was something to remove the stress from his entire being. That's what he saw it as. Maybe, he would of usually outside, testing himself against the monsters.. Or even Soldiers that would wander outside.

Not today. Something else inside of him was boiling up inside.

Aeris caught a ride with a chocobo that was attracted by her flowers. She thanked it by patting its feathers. She waved at it when it run away to the fields.

She had only 2000 gil so she couldn't pay the entrance to Gold Saucer. She picked some flowers and started to make crowns with them as she entered North Corel.

It was different, Corel. It no longer had tents but real houses. Shop owners had real shops now and the people seemed happier. A child with her mother passed beside her and they noticed the crowns.

"Are you selling those, miss?"

Aeris looked at the lady and nodded.

"Hum..how's 100gil for you?"

"Perfect! I'd like two, please!"

Aeris smiled with joy and gave two to the child and mother, receiving the 200 gil. She went back outside to make more and, in a flash, she got the 1000gil she needed.

Aeris went to the cable car happily, sitting beside a little boy with a moogle plushie.

"Those flowers are pretty! My moogle's cool right? I won it at Wonder Square!!"

"Really? Its really..hum, cool!"

"What's your favourite attraction?"

"Hum..the.. Gondola."

"Enough here.." Cloud's lips began to slowly mouth, as he began to pace himself towards the awaiting car.. Awaiting.. He had to wait for it.

Cloud's arms rested at his sides, as his mako orbs began to drift downward to the darken tunnel, he could see the cable car begin to arrive within the darkness. Taking a small step back and off to the right side as he awaited for those who came to leave from within the guts of the car.. So, he could get on and leave.

Cloud could just see those smiling, rapture visages of the young children who couldn't wait to get to the games and fun that awaited for them.. Cloud, on the other hand, couldn't wait to get on the car and take his leave. This place already serviced as too many memories for one to bare.

It had already hit a nerve of his.

*Yuffie thought about Aeris and wondered if she would've known anything about this boy's power. But she believed that Aeris was dead... little does she know, Aeris is on her way to the Gold Saucer right now.*

Yuffie: Hey kid, what's your name?

Umm..uh...I'm Project Naseroth...

Yuffie: Project!?! That's not your name! How about I just call you Naseroth huh?

umm.. uh...okay...

Yuffie: Good, well it's obviously now safe around here so I think we should leave the Gold Saucer immediately before more of the Shinra Remenants arrive, okay?

ummm...okay...

*Yuffie started to walk toward the tram that would leave the Gold Saucer. One their way, she kept thinking how odd of a sight it was to see a young boy holding some kind of staff blade. Once they arrived at the station, they were ready to leave but they found that the tram was gone. Yuffie looked outside and saw a tram heading in towards the Gold Saucer.*

Yuffie:What the!?! I think we're too late, more soldiers are arriving! Quick hide behind that bush over there!

*Yuffie grabbed Naseroth by his right arm and ran to a bush and hid in it. Naseroth wanted a little peek but Yuffie put her hand on his head a pushed down on it to keep him low.*

Yuffie: Alright, here's what we will do, once the soldiers get off the tram, we sneak aboard and we're out of here, got that?

*The boy nodded, of course Yuffie was only predicting that soldiers were on the tram. She had no clue that an old friend was on there. Once the tram Aeris was on neared he felt something strange. Something or perhaps someone was on that tram, Naseroth always felt alone because he knew he wasn't human. But when feeling this presence, he felt as though he wasn't alone. There was definitely someone on that tram that he needed to see. If it wasn't for Yuffies rough pressure on his head, he would probably go out to meet whoever was on that tram.*

The cable car stopped and the people started to get up and get near the door. She stayed last, walking slowly as people exited and others came in. While trying to get out she hit a guy unintentionally and all of the few flowers she was carrying fell to the ground.

"Oh, I'm sorry for hitting you..." she said, looking up.

When their eyes met her green eyes opened wide as she saw the man's blue ones, with a strange blur on them. Mako eyes.

"...Cloud?"

*As the cable car stopped, Naseroth felt a similar presence to himself in there. But who was it?*

Yuffie: Careful, there might be soldiers onboard over th...

*Her words were stopped as she noticed a gun pointed at her head, standing out side of the bush was one of the Shinra Remenants with his assault rifle at the girl's head.*

Soldier:... get up... you too kid...

*He ordered both of them to get up out of the bushes, but as soon as Naseroth got up, he defied his ordered and fired a bolt of lightning at the soldier's head. The bolt made a low roar of thunder, sparks were seen at his finger tips, he lowered his hands.*

... for too long you have kept me in captivity... no more... I can't go back there again...

*Yuffie rose and looked at the boy with a look of being impressed.*

Yuffie: Nice, you got us out of that one heh heh!

*He turned around and laughed a little while rubbing the back of his head.*

Cloud began to kneel towards the ground, before his mind would acknowledge the woman's words. "It's --" Cloud's gloved right hand had reached towards a flower, before stopping only inches away. His mako eyes hadn't caught sight of the woman who he bumped into.

The sapphire mako hues would begin to drift upward, catching the arched chestnut bangs and.. those emeralds. Cloud began to unbend his knees, standing himself straight up. The makos opened wide with surprise. Which, in fact, left him speechless. His lips began to shudder, as he tried to manage out some words, but only choked on them.

Closing his mouth.. Unable to work the words from his mouth.

*The loud sound of a gun shot interrupted the moment between the reunion of Cloud and Aeris. It obviously came from outside of the cable car, adding with the sound of the gunshot was a small roar of thunder and lightning. A seemed as though a battle was happening outside of the cable car, not too far away and able to reach in a small matter of time as well. If the two were to peer outside of the car, they would see that the same old materia thief and a small boy were battling against a small number a men in blue uniforms. The smell of a certain type of gunpowder was the sign Shinra Soldiers. Yuffie and the boy continued to fight against the Remenants until they soldiers would perish.*

Aeris came outside and, besides Yuffie, she saw the one she was looking for.

"Nase!!"

When the only soldier turned to face her she had already called for Fire3 magic, a materia she still had on her staff and that didn't lost its power. The soldier fell to the ground and she ran to Naseroth, kneeling down and hugging him.

"Are you ok?"

She stopped holding him, only keeping her hands on his shoulders. The boy nodded, looking surprised as he looked at her.

Aeris looked up at Yuffie, who's mouth was hanging open as she looked at Aeris.

"Hi, Yuffie..." she added with a guilty smile.

*He looked up at the girl with a little blush not knowing why she hugged him.*

umm...uh...hi? uh... I-I'm Naseroth... uhh.... nice to meet you....uhhh...

*Yuffie still had her jaw dropped out, she slapped herself once in the head and she looked at Aeris again.*

Yuffie: ... I'm seeing things... aren't I...? eheh...eheheheh...HAH HAH HAH!!!

*Yuffie dropped down and fainted thinking she saw an undead girl. As for the boy, he was still surprised from how she came up to him and just hugged him suddenly. As usual he was as nervous and shy as ever.*

Cloud stood his ground for a minute, before running forward and chasing after Aeris had ran off to. His feet would pause as he watched her knee to the ground and embrace a young child. He had his right hand latched around the handle of the wide blade, but his hand would begin to remove. There wasn't much of a danger anymore.

Clearing his throat, he brought a hand up to wave through the light, spikey hair. "Aeris..?" He began, his eyes narrowed... As if.. He thought he was living in a dream.

"Yuffie?!" she said, surprised and a bit shocked with her fainting.

She got up, one hand on Yuffie while the other was holding Naseroth's one. She would not let go of him for anything.

"Yuffie, are you ok?"

"Aeris...?"

She turned around to see Cloud with narrowed eyes, as if trying to figure out if it was all for real. Aeris got nearer with Naseroth.

"Naseroth, this is Cloud. He's a friend of mine." she said smiling at him.

She patted his head as she looked at Cloud.

"Can we go somewhere else? Yuffie needs to rest and...I need to tell you why I'm...well.. alive."

"Sounds like an idea." He said almost silently, his eyes drifting towards Yuffie. "The inn at the Gold, should do?" He waved a hand, then glanced towards the one named Naseroth. Cloud had abit of a shudder when he heard orth. "Go on ahead, I'll take Yuffie." He said lightly, beginning to walk over towards the fallen Yuffie.

He had wanted to touch Aeris' face.. He still wasn't sure if he was dreaming or not. Kneeling down, he scooped the fainted Yuffie into his arms, and slowly rose to his feet. Turning smoothly with the girl. "If that's alright with you, Aeris?"

It was... abit of a creepy place, the "servant" had abit of a strange way of talking.. But it was something, and he had wanted to know more about Aeris' return than anything.. Not walk around with the fainted Yuffie in his arms.

Aeris climbed the stairs up to the room Cloud rented for her. She laid Naseroth and run her fingers through his hair until he fell asleep. She then came down, Cloud was already there after putting Yuffie on her room.

He was sitting on a sofa and she sat beside him, keeping a short distance. She was feeling nervous, but she told everything about what she was supposed to do and the importance of Naseroth.

"...And that's why they revived me. I'm..sorry if I disturbed you." She said with embarressment and a small bow.

*As Naseroth was asleep, he had a dream where he saw a knight with maroon armor, the knight also had a helmet with a strange design. The knight also wore and green cape and he had what seemed to be the same exact double-edged sword he found in the garbage pile. He then saw a the knight fighting against a demonic figure in black armor with a red cape and two demonic swords. It looked as though they were fighting over a once beatiful Mt.Nible. Meteor was coming down deforming the mountains, Suddenly Holy flew at a high speed and made a blow to Meteor knocking it back into space, numerous chips of Meteor came off. When Holy crashed into Meteor, the boy saw that the black knight was casted into Holy disentigrating the dark night. Naseroth suddenly awoke from his sleep in the middle of the knight, he had a vision of some sort. He saw something that occured as an event in the past. Who were the knights and what did they have to do with the young child. He looked around seeing that the room was nearly pitch black. His Cetra eyes shined in the darkness making him look like he was one of the ghosts in the room. He wondered who that girl was and why she treated him like he was her own son. He got up out of bed wondering if he should leave or stay. He was never treated this well in his life. He walked up to the window and looked out at the scenery below. Him standing in next to the window and his shining green eyes would most likely give him away to anyone who was in the same room as him, that is if they were awake.*

...

Cloud eased back in the sofa, his arms coming across his chest as his eyes stared down at the deep chestnut boots, that he usually wore. "Distrubed?" He glanced up with the question flicking in his eyes. Distrubed wasn't the word he was looking more. Rapture had hit it on the head.

Cloud waved a hand towards him, beckoning her closer to him. "Aeris." He said gently, his right arm coming across the top of the sofa. "I'm not distrubed one bit." He tried to cast a smile, but it was barely a smile. "Actually.. I'm just.." He paused his words, before standing to his feet. His arms crossing over his chest again, as his head inclined. "Actually, I don't know what to say."

So, she was back for one reason alone. To care for this child. His lips began to motion in an aimless manner, before his mako hues narrowed towards the carpet. "How long do you plan on staying for?" The question finally began to audio through.. somewhat of a shaken voice. It was an answer he wanted to know. Tell her, what he had felt.

"It's not like I have a life limit. I'm alive, just like anyone else. Now I'll live normally, but instead of our last mission to save the planet now its about protecting that boy."

She was still looking at her hands. She got up and moved a few steps to the right. She then turned to him with a smile.

"Well, now that I had this second chance I think I'll try to do things I wish I could've done before. What do you think?"

Cloud's lips hadn't moved much, she lifted his eyes and glanced up towards her, trying to crack atleast the smallest smile he could.. But in a way, he couldn't force it through. "Yeah.." He said lightly to her little question comment.

The endless time limit that he thought she might have had lifted his spirits. Cloud reached out and took a small grasp to her hands, again, beckoning her closer with a small drag of her arms. "I do think so." Finally, his lips would curl into a small smile. The mako hues drifting down to watch her hands for a moment, before lifting back towards her.

"Yeah..."

"You know, I'm glad for meeting you again. And I was really happy to see you on the altar... I'm just sorry you had to see that..."

She smiled sweetly and started to walk to the stairs.

"I'm gonna check on Naseroth. Maybe you should go check on Yuffie. I don't wanna go there and..scare her..again..."

Cloud nodded his head faintly. "Sure." It was kinda of a funny thought, as he began up the stairs, and towards the room the room where Yuffie was laid down and rest. His right hand would come to the knob, his fingers curling around it. And soon pulled it open and took a step inside.

Yuffie was sitting up in the bed, her orbs drifting around the room. "How did I get here?.." The question came lightly, she had heard the door open, but ( he guessed ) didn't see who had entered.

"You fainted." Cloud said lightly to the younger female, as she would take a look his way. "And.. I brought you here."

"Cloud?" She seemd abit surprised to see him around again. It was true, he hadn't really been around anyone else for awhile. His head would only bob as the reply.

"Get some rest, I'll explain everything later."

He seemed abit.. changed? Could that be the term used from such a thing? Perhaps. Maybe he, too, was shocked by Aeris' sudden appearance back. But, it was fine and set.

She knocked on his door.

"Come in..." he said lightly.

Aeris came in with a smile.

"You're already awake? You should rest a bit more, you must be tired."

He was looking at her in a funny way. She smiled happily at him and sit beside him on the bed.

"I'm Aeris. I used to be a flower girl when I lived in Midgar slums. I've been kinda...away lately, so my friends are a bit shocked to see me again. But now I'm supposed to take care of you, so..." she patted his head with a sweet smile "Do you want anything?"

*He looked at her, his green eyes shning in the darkness. Even though it was dark, should could tell he had shy face on.*

D-did you say Midgar...?

*He had flashbacks of when he was being ecperimented on, he shook his head and tried to pull out a smile.*

I-it's nice to meet you...

*Naseroth tried to get rid of the memories of being experimented on... but those moments scarred his life forever. He was in an undergound lab nearly for his whole life.*

I-I'm fine...

*He looked up at Aeris and saw that her eyes also shined in the darkness.*

Y-your eyes, they glow... are you an angel?

*The young boy thought he was blessed by the girl from getting out of Shinra's labs. His young mind thought of her as an angel who released him with the power of her spirit. Of course, he never exactly knew why Shinra was eperimenting on him for. It was a dark secret that could only be found in the Shinra Underground Lab Documents.*

"An angel? No, not at all!" she said cheerfully "I'm just...a flowergirl. And..."

She tickled his neck.

"...If I'm an angel because my eyes glow, then you're an angel too! They glow too, you know?"

Aeris smiled at him but he seemed really shy. She noticed his frightned look when she mentioned Midgar.

"...I know what they did to you in Midgar...in ShinRa labs. They wanted to do the same with my mother and to me." she hugged him and kissed his head "But now I won't let them take you. You're safe now."

Cloud wandered out of the room, his arms across his chest, his eyes watching the ground before he made his way towards the room where Aeris had entered. His hand curled on the knob. He had desired to explain afew more things to her, yet there seemed be something almost in.. his way? Maybe, yet, alone with the thought it didn't manner.

He placed his ear close to the door before bringing her left hand towards the wood, and let his fingers wack against the door in a small knock. "Care if I come in?" His voice came lightly, his hand still wanting to turn the knob.

She smiled at Naseroth and let go of him.

"Sure, come in, Cloud."

She watched him enter with a smile. Naseroth looked over to the window, and watched some bats flying around a spooky tree.

"So, how's Yuffie?"

"She's resting." He answered quickly, he glanced to the young boy, as he stood in the doorway. "Aeris, do you care if I talk to you?" He asked lightly, his head tilted off to the side slightly, watching her through his sapphire mako orbs.

"Sure, ok."

She got up and patted Naseroth's head.

"I'll be right back, Nase" she said with a happy smile.

She walked outside and closed the door behind her.

"So, what's up? Is something wrong?"
