[Private to Zack] Help?
Zack?
I don't know what to do.
There are people threatening to blow up the city and I can't kill them because they won't stay dead and also because Aerith would take it badly.
And Aerith could take anything badly, really. I don't want Aerith to take offense at me. She threw me out of Gaia. I don't want to be thrown out of this world. I love him. I don't want to leave him.
But if she sees me fighting with people, I can see how she could misinterpret that. But I don't want to just step back and let them have the time to study our defenses and figure out what to blow up when, either.
And there might be a timeline on all of this. Mother ...that thing is ...back. In Shelke's mind. We have to get rid of it. But I can't use our bond -- I can't defeat Her myself. That's been proven time and time again. But I can't just let Cloud kill Shelke either. She's almost my mother. Almost my real mother.
And here it wouldn't even work if he tried.
Jenova has the upper hand in a world where She can infect people and we can't kill anything, possibly not even Her. We need something that can destroy Jenova without killing her hosts.
But we can't ask Aerith. At least, not right away. She still doesn't have any reason to trust me. She'd have to try to throw Shelke and myself out of this world, and I couldn't say that she was wrong, but I don't want that to be anything other than the last resort. And without the Lifestream, she might not have the power to do it anyway. And Aerith taken over by Jenova is an even worse thought than myself taken over by Jenova.
I don't know what to do. I don't know where to start. Help?
