I hope she doesn't need much maintinence, like some god damned house plant. Sure, she'll eat and bathe, but hopefully nothing else.

Oh cloud, she faught so valiantly...but once again, she succumbed to my power. How absoutely delicious.

Now, where do I go from here?

...what are you talking about?

Who did you take?

Private to Cloud.

[little_aeris]

Tifa is gone.

I heard the alarms, so i went to see if i could help with the children, but Tifa wasn't around, and they where all hiding.

The poor children are terrified. They said a big man with silver hair took her away. I'll keep an eye on them.

Private to Aeris

[delivery_boy]

I'm going to kill him.

I...Tifa...I left, I shouldn't have left. It was a trap. He still...

...just tell the kids that I'll be there soon.

[little_aeris]

Oh Cloud. I've been watching him for awhile, and even i didn't expect this.
Don't blame yourself. We will get her back, i promise.

The children are ok. I moved them up to my room for now and they are helping me plant flowers in the window boxes.

[little_aeris]

Let her go...

[evilmako]

i see my escapades haven't eluded you.

You will tell him won't you?

I'm sure you'll know just the way to wrench his heart out of his chest. I appreciate it so much.

[little_aeris]

Your escapades never eluded me. You forget, i'm watching you like a hawk.

Of course i'll tell him. It may hurt, but its better than letting him worry.
You see thats the difference between you and i.

Honesty and Kindness.
Oh but wait... you don't even have a basic understanding of those morals...
do you?

[evilmako]

morals are what trip you up in the long run. All you need is ambition and the courage necessary to finish what you were doing.

This is only the beginning, this pain is nothing compared to what will come.
