Tragedy Strikes
Final Fantasy 7
By: Todd

Setting: City of the Ancients

Uneasy and confused, Cloud Strife lays his eyes opon the peaceful Aeris
that is kneeling in the center of the beautiful crystaline City of the Ancients.
Without saying a word, a look of insanity falls across his face. His eyes burn with anger
and his mouth is bitter with hatred. Aeris looks up unafraid, knowing that
his hatred is not of his own. Suddenly, the wicked Sephiroth springs from above
with evil intenstions. Down....down....down....until the sharp and shinning blade of his trusty masamune
cuts through her fragile body like butter. Still remaining her peacefulness somehow, she slumps to the ground,
and dies. The murderer glances up at Cloud giving him a quick glance of success.
Clouds eyes tear up, then narrow at Sephiroth and the others.
"you all shall pay for this" says Cloud, not having an inch of sanity in his body.
"heh, well see" sneers Sephiroth. Cloud then crazily points at the team that stood beside him all along.
"I mean EVERYone" he says in a raspy tone.
"huh!?!?!?!" says Tifa and Barret together. the others too afraid to move.
"enjoy the rest of your lives" Cloud says sarcastically, then storms off.
"aaah he'll calm down down dont worry" says Barret comforting the group.
All agreeing with Barret, they all continue with a burial of the belated Aeris. A final goodbye.

Setting: Turtle's Paradise

Yuffie is in the shop admiring some materia orbs no longer mourning over Aeris's death, (which didnt last long)
while Cloud forcfully shoves the door open and stares at Yuffie for a few seconds, still psyco. Yuffie stays still,
shocked and frightend to see Cloud. Her lips are quivering with fear.
"o-oh, ummmmm h-h-hi Cloud" studders Yuffie.
"no time for small talk Yuffie, we have some business to take care of" says Cloud sternly
"we do?" she says confused.
"follow me......" he says while walking outside.
"o-ok"....she follows.
Yuffie walks outside and looks around. She cant see Cloud. Suddenly, Cloud leaps from the side
and grabs Yuffie's head. Then slams it into a clay pot. Her body lays lifeless.
"one down....." Cloud says casually.

Setting: Shinra HQ

Reeve is at a control panel very busy and hard at work. Sly like a fox, Cloud sneaks in from a window off to the side.
Slowly stepping to Reeve being very silent, he pulls his Ultima Weapon from a sheath. Then places it to Reeves throat and tenses up.
Reeve's eyes open wide and he stands still, acting calmly.
"Cloud..dont do anything that you will regret" he says gulping.
"dont worry, i wont..." Cloud says mockingly. then, without warning, Cloud lifts up on the sword slicing Reeves throat.
his head hangs low, his eyes droop, and he dies, slowly and painfully. The Cait Sith robot beside him lays limp.... As Cloud
walks out slices up Cait Sith, stuffing pouring out.

Setting: Seventh Heaven Bar

Tifa Lockeheart is casually cleaning some dishes with her back turned away from the door. Cloud walks in with a smirk on his face, whistling the piano tune.
She turns around and smiles at Cloud, thinking that he has gotten over the tradegy.
"would you like a drink" shes says happily
"on the house of course" she says with a smile.
With his brow arched, he walks over to her, with a smile, but a sinister smile. He has the same intentions as Sephiroth.....
Then, he places his hands around her neck. She looks up shocked. Then he squeezes her neck hard.
"cloud! *gulp* cloud.. *wheeze* help..someone..*gasp*" she studders trying to get air.
"this is for you Aeris" he says shouting at Tifa, still strangling.
"cloud.."
"clou..."
"clo...."
"cl....."
"c......"
"......."Tifa, now silent, slowly fades away. Still in Clouds hands. Suddenly he lets go. Her limp body drops to the ground.
"wha? where am i" Cloud mutters, now sane. "oh no" he relizes all that he has done.

Setting: On The Shell House Overlooking Aeris's Burial Ground

Cloud is sobbing on top of the shell house by the peaceful lake where Aeris was buried.
"what have i done...what have i done" Cloud weeps repeatedly. Then out of no where, what seems to be Aeris's spirit rises from the waters.
"dont cry Cloud" the ghost of Aeris says comfortingly
"a-a-a-aeris!?!?!?!?" he says confused "your alive!"
"no...im not. this is me as a spirit" she explains. Cloud is speechless.
"those killings were not your fault Cloud, dont feel bad" she expresses.
"not my fault!?!? i killed them" Cloud yells.
"but you were not under control, you were not stable. dont be sad" she says softly.
"i guess your right....Aeris...ill miss you...please dont go." he says desperatley.
"i must...ill miss you too..good bye Cloud...." she says peacefully, then she slowly enters the water again, slowly waving good bye.
"....good bye......." he says, feeling better =, but still sad,
"ill never forget you....."
