They turn to see a mysterious figure in the doorway...) [Aerith] "Sorry, bad timing on my part." (Cloud moves toward the person.) [Aerith] "Cloud! Don't let it get to you!" (She steps back, behind Cloud.) [Aerith] "Say, Cloud. Have you ever been a bodyguard?" "You DO do everything, right?" (Cloud smooths his hair.) [Cloud] "Yeah, that's right." [Aerith] "Then, get me out of here. Take me home." [Cloud] "OK, I'll do it... but it'll cost you." [Aerith] "Well then, let's see......" "How about if I go out with you once?" (Cloud makes an affirmative nod. He confronts the person.) [Cloud] "I don't know who you are, but...." "You don't know me.....?" ......I know you. (The screen goes white, briefly) [Cloud] "Oh yeah...... I know you." "That uniform...." (Three Shinra guards run in.) ".....Hey, sis, this one's a little weird." [Cloud] "Shut up! You Shinra spy!" "Reno! Want him taken out?" [Reno] "I haven't decided yet." [Aerith] "Don't fight here! You'll ruin the flowers!" (Cloud and Aerith run to the back of the church.) [Aerith] "The exit is back there." (They exit. Reno walks forward, OVER the flower patch...) [Reno] "They were..... Mako eyes." "Yeah, all right. Back to work, back to work." (He exits.) [Reno] "Oh!" (He re-enters.) "And don't step on the flowers......" (The three guards speak in unison) "Hey Reno, you just stepped on them!" "They're all ruined!" "You're gonna catch holy hell!" Scene 12 - Flee The Church - (The scene changes. Cloud and Aerith in the back room of the church. It is three floors high, and a large Shinra missle apparently crashed through them all, leaving gaping holes in them. They jump past the missile and climb a broken flight of stairs, reaching a break in the walkway.) [Reno] "There they are, over there!" (Reno comes in with the three guards.) [Aerith] "Cloud... that one!" [Cloud] "I know... Looks like they aren't going to let us go." [Aerith] "What should we do?" [Cloud] "Well we can't let them catch us, can we? Then, there's only one thing left." (He jumps across the gap and motions for Aerith to follow.) [Cloud] "Aerith! This way!" (She shakes her head.) [Cloud] "All right. I'll hold them off." [Aerith] "Right. Make sure they don't get through!" [Reno] "The Ancient is getting away! Attack! Attack! Attack!" (The guards fire at Aerith who falls from the walkway.) [Aerith] "Eaygh!!" [Cloud] "Aerith!" [Reno] "Think we k**ed 'em? They shouldn't have put up a fight, I say!" [Aerith] "Cloud, help!" [Cloud] "Damn!" (He looks up to the rafters.) "What's that...?" (The three guards attack Aerith. Cloud runs to the rafters and finds four barrels. He pushes them off, squashing each guard. The PLAYER controls this.) [Aerith] "Thanks, Cloud." (Aerith runs up to the rafters.) [Cloud] "Aerith, this way." (She follows Cloud. They find a hole in the roof of the church and jump out to the outside.) Scene 13 - Let's Go, Bodyguard! - (Cloud and Aerith are sitting on the roof of Aerith's old church.) [Aerith] "Ha, ha..... They're looking for me again." [Cloud] "You mean it's not the first time they've been after you?" [Aerith] "...no." [Cloud] "They're the Turks." [Aerith] "Hmmm......" [Cloud] "The Turks are an organization in Shinra. They scout for possible candidates for SOLDIER." [Aerith] "This violently? I thought they were kidnapping someone." [Cloud] "They're also involved in a lot of dirty stuff on the side." "Spying, murder... you know." [Aerith] "They look like it." [Cloud] "But, why're they after you? There must be a reason, right?" [Aerith] "No, not really. I think they believe I have what it takes to be in SOLDIER!" [Cloud] "Maybe you do. You want to join?" [Aerith] "I don't know... But I don't want to get caught by THOSE people!" [Cloud] "Then, let's go!" (Aerith follows Cloud. They jump across many rooftops and pieces of debris, heading away from the church. Cloud gets far ahead of her.) [Aerith] "Wait... Wait, I said!" (She catches up, carefully, femininely judging each gap.) "Puff... wheeze..." "Slow.... down.... Don't leave me...." [Cloud] "Funny..." "I thought you were cut out to be in SOLDIER?" [Aerith] "Oh! You're terrible!" (Cloud laughs.) [Aerith] "Hey.... Cloud. Were you ever in SOLDIER?" [Cloud] "....." "...I used to be. How did you guess?" [Aerith] "...Your eyes. They have a strange glow..." [Cloud] "That's the sign of those who have been infused with Mako..." "A mark of SOLDIER." "But, how did you know about that?" [Aerith] "........Oh, nothing." [Cloud] "Nothing....?" [Aerith] "Right, nothing!" "Come on, let's go! Bodyguard!" (Cloud continues across the rooftops. Aerith follows, more closely.) Scene 14 - Sneak Out At Midnight - (Cloud and Aerith hop down from the rooftops across pieces of debris. They land on a dirt road) [Aerith] "Whew! Finally made it off! Now what..." (She looks around, then scampers forward) "My house is over here. Let's hurry before they get here!" (Cloud and Aerith travel through the Sector 5 slums to Aerith's small cottage. They go inside.) [Aerith] "I'm home, mom." (Her mother, Elmyra, walks over.) "This is Cloud, my bodyguard." [Elmyra] "Bodyguard.....? You mean you were followed again!?" "Are you all right!? You're not hurt, are you!?" [Aerith] "I'm all right. I had Cloud with me." (Elmyra nods.) [Elmyra] "Thank you, Cloud." (She goes upstairs.) [Aerith] "So, what are you going to do now?" [Cloud] "...Is Sector 7 far from here? I want to go to Tifa's bar." [Aerith] "Is Tifa...... a girl?" [Cloud] "Yeah." [Aerith] "A girl... friend?" [Cloud] "Girlfriend?" ***Cloud No way! (Cloud shakes his head quickly.) Aerith "Hee hee hee...." "You don't have to get THAT upset..." (She moves toward Cloud... a small step.) [Aerith] "Well, that's... nice." "Let's see, Sector 7? I'll show you the way." [Cloud] "You gotta be kidding. Why do you want to put yourself in danger again?" [Aerith] "I'm used to it." [Cloud] "Used to it!?" "....Well, don't know... getting help from a girl..." (She makes an amusedly angry gesture.) [Aerith] "A girl!! What do you mean by that!?" "You expect me to just sit by and listen, after hearing you say something like that!?" (She calls upstairs.) "Mom! I'm taking Cloud to Sector 7. I'll be back in a while." (Elmyra comes downstairs.) [Elmyra] "But dear... I give up. You never listen once you've made up your mind." "But if you must go, why don't you go tomorrow? It's getting late now." [Aerith] "Yeah, you're right, mom." [Elmyra] "Aerith, please go and make the bed." (Aerith goes upstairs. Cloud speaks to Elmyra.) [Elmyra] "That glow in your eyes... you're from SOLDIER, right?" [Cloud] "Yeah. Rather I used to be..." [Elmyra] ".... I don't know how to say this, but..." "Would you please leave here, tonight?" Without telling Aerith." (Cloud goes upstairs. Aerith meets him.) [Aerith] "You need to go through Sector 6 to get to Sector 7. Sector 6 is a little" "dangerous so you'd better get some rest tonight." (Cloud walks toward the bedroom door.) [Aerith] "Cloud...." (He turns to her.) [Aerith] "Good night." (She goes downstairs.) [Cloud] "Oh, man..." (Cloud goes to bed. He dreams, we presume.) "...seem pretty tired......" [Cloud] ".......!?" "I haven't slept in a bed like this ....in a long time." [Cloud] "....Oh, yeah." "Ever since that time." (The scene fades in. Cloud is lying on a bed in a one-room house. A woman is in the room, working in the kitchen area. She stops and walks toward him.) "My, how you've grown." "I'll bet the girls never leave you alone." [Cloud] "...Not really." (She paces a bit.) "...I'm worried about you." "There are a lot of temptations in the city..." "I'd feel a lot better if you just settled down and had a nice girlfriend." [Cloud] "...I'm all right." "You should have..." "an older girlfriend, one that'll take care of you." "I think that would be the perfect type for you." [Cloud] "I'm not interested." (The scene fades back in. Cloud is lying on a bed on the second floor of Aerith's house. Aerith is in the next room.) [Cloud] "...I must've fallen asleep." (He gets up.) [Cloud] "Sector 7's past Sector 6... I should be all right by myself..." (He sneaks past Aerith's room and goes downstairs. He exits the house, leaving Aerith behind.) Scene 15 - Playground Ai - [[[People in Sector 5]]] "Take care of yourself. It's the law of the slums. But to do that, first, you need weapons, right?" (Sells weapons) "Hmph.....! Everything President Shinra says is a lie." "But then again, you can't trust that AVALANCHE, or whatever you call them." "You can bat it around all you like. But in the end it comes down to wanting to be like those who live up above." "So who do you believe in? Oneself! Me! I never lie to myself, that's for sure!" (TV) "And now for the news." "Due to a terrorist attack by the group named AVALANCHE, parts of Midgar that were temporarily out of power will be restored momentarily." "Following President Shinra's lead, Mayor Domino also spoke out public against AVALANCHE." "glug... glug..." "Now... no one... will find it... num..." "The top one... and the bottom one..." "...stare... hmph... we only trade items for gil here." (Sells items) "I don't care if it's scrap metal or materia. We can get anything here in the slums." "Got a lot of good materia here. Why don't you look it over?" (Sells materia) "ooh.... aaah..... aghhhh...." (On the way out of the city, Cloud runs into Aerith. He looks startled.) [Aerith] "You're up bright and early." [Cloud] "How could I ask you to go along when I knew it would be dangerous?" [Aerith] "Are you done?" (Cloud smooths his hair.) "You have to go through the slum in Sector 6 to get to Tifa's 7th Heaven." "I'll take you there. Come on!" (Aerith runs out. Cloud follows. They cross a highway that has been more or less demolished until they reach an old playground.) [Aerith] "The gate to Sector 7's in there." [Cloud] "Thanks. I guess this is goodbye. You gonna be all right going home?" [Aerith] "Oh no! 'Whatever will I do!?' ...isn't that what you want me to say?" ***Cloud See her home [Aerith] "Isn't that a little out of the way?" [Cloud] "Yeah, I guess so." (Aerith puts her hands behind her back and looks up at Cloud.) [Aerith] "Can we take a break?" (She walks to a large, moogle-shaped children's slide.) [Aerith] "I can't believe it's still here." (She climbs to the top) "Cloud, get over here!" (He climbs up and sits beside her.) [Aerith] "What rank were you?" [Cloud] "Rank?" [Aerith] "You know, in SOLDIER." [Cloud] "Oh, I was..." (The screen goes solid white, briefly.) "First Cla**." [Aerith] "Just the same as him." [Cloud] "The same as who?" [Aerith] "My first boyfriend." [Cloud] "You were... serious?" [Aerith] "No. But I liked him for a while." [Cloud] "I probably knew him. What was his name?" (Aerith shakes her head.) [Aerith] "It doesn't really matter." (A huge gate opens in the back. A large carriage drawn by a chocobo comes out. A woman is riding in the back.) [Cloud] "Huh? Hey, back there....." (He stands up) [Cloud] "Tifa!?" (The carriage drives out and the gate closes.) [Aerith] "That girl in the cart was Tifa? Where was she going? She looked kind of odd..." (She hops down and chases the cart.) [Cloud] "Wait!" "I'll go on alone! You go home!" (She doesn't listen. She chases the carriage offscreen. Cloud shakes his head and goes after her.)
