((This thread is open but note to only a few people....Zack, Tifa and maybe Kadaj if he wants^^ And any one else pm me about it^^))
================================================
The day after Zack brought Cloud back to 7TH Heaven...And also the day after Cloud faced Sephiroth and lost....We open this first scene as we see a few curtains blow inside Cloud's bed room. Cloud had remained asleep ever since Zack brought him back. It was so hard for Cloud to adjust to the massive power Sephiroth gave him...Darkness Powers to be exact. No one in 7TH Heaven knew what really happened yesterday to Cloud. Not even Zack. He arrived a little too late to save Cloud from Sephiroth....But Zack might have an idea on what happened...
Cloud laid there motionless...All that was seen was his chest thumping steadily up and down and you could hear his breathing. The wind was a bit strong today outside....So it blew some of Cloud's spiky hair...Never had Cloud slept this heavy before. Tifa would know....From what the nightmares did to him....All electronics were turned off in his bed room and his door was shut...No one would know what he really was now....Not even a top notch doctor. His vital signs were all good....He didn't even endure a massive heart attack from what Sephiroth poured into his heart....
He looked nice and clean....He was not wearing a shirt as he laid under the covers....When Zack found Cloud laying there on the out skirts of Banora he was pretty dusty....But now he was taken well care of by Tifa....Who was probably worried more than the rest of them now...Sure Zack probably told her it was Sephiroth.....
But what he didn't tell her was the full truth...Cause no one knew....But Cloud....And he was not awake yet....Inside Cloud's own mind, there was nothing...But silence....His friends were long gone from his memories.....Except for the new ones that Sephiroth placed in him....Which was that he was a 1ST. Class Ex-Soldier turned evil by the experiments that were played on him....No one....Not even Tifa was in there....His love for her was destroyed as well.....The bond he and Zack carried was long gone....How could some one so devious....do this?
((I will now post for Yazoo He will be waiting for Cloud to come to him on the out skirts of Edge^^))

On the outskirts of Edge....
A motor bike stops at the edge of a cliff....And this time....It was Yazoo...He was there for a reason...To wait for Cloud. He knew it was be a matter of minutes when he saw his big brother again....And that's what he was doing here.....Waiting....To make sure also that nothing happened to Cloud on his way out of Edge....Yazoo knew Cloud's friends would probably stop him from leaving.....But he also knew Cloud. That nothing would get in the man's way....Not even his 'friends'. "He'll be here shortly...." Yazoo left Sephiroth a message on his cell to let him know that it was soon that Cloud would arrive.....And that gave Yazoo all around happiness....But not the kind you think....It was more of a sinister happiness that Yazoo felt...
With Cloud on the Dark side it would be a lot easier leveling this little city.... Yazoo adjusted his glove on his right hand and laid it back on his thigh....As he knew what waited for this pathetic city now....Death....And he knew that Sephiroth ordered Cloud to do away with some important humans....That would be a load off Yazoo and his brothers if that took place....He knew how strong Cloud was...And that he was capable of probably now killing off Zack Fair....Yazoo grumbled at the thought of that man...He remembered the last meeting he had with Zack...And was ready to blow the man's head clean off.....Only he saved Zack for one man....Cloud....

Cloud was back at the bar but something was wrong Tifa could tell even when Cloud said nothing about it. He wasn't acting like himself. Could it have something to do with Sephiroth? Tifa could only wonder. Maybe Cloud didn't tell her so not to worry her but that only made it worse as she couldn't stop worrying about him.
It had to be Sephiroth that was the only conclusion Tifa could come up with. Who else would scare Cloud like this? She remembered when Yazoo told them that Sephiroth was back she was able to see the fear in his eyes and that day wasn't different only now it was a lot worse.
Tifa thought about calling Zack to see if he knew anything but if he didn't she didn't want to worry him. There was no need and she only hoped that this time it was nothing. "Cloud......." Tifa called him name with a smile as she always did before walking into his room. She tried to hide her own fear and only hoped it didn't show.

((sorry it took me so long to post this guys!!!!!! I just have a lot of stuff going on right now...I'll try to be better!!))
Zack Fair
Zack didn’t know what to do. He had found Cloud, just as Sephiroth had seemed to push something into Cloud’s chest. Yes, Cloud had passed out, but after Tifa had taken care of him, he seemed to be physically alright, sleeping soundly, but…something was wrong! He could feel it, something was just not right! What had happened with Sephiroth? What was going to happen? What was going on? Questions ran through his head at a million a second. Did he know what had happened? No, he didn’t, but he also wasn’t dumb. It was more then everyone thought, there was something more to it! That silver haired man, he had said he had lost his best friend, and yet, Cloud was still living, so he hadn’t lost him, what had he meant by that?
He stood by his bike on the hill looking over Midgar, his mind going fast, and yet, he had not a clue! One thing stood out…to find that silver haired man again. He had left so quickly, wanting…no…needing to find Cloud, but he should have asked that man more questions. This was all so messed up! He put his hands on his head and wandered around the hill, scuffing his boots against the ground. Why did this always happen to Cloud? Hadn’t he been through enough? Why did Sephiroth keep up with his games? He stood there, his arms crossed, his mako blue eyes looking up into the sky. “Angeal…what should I do?” But no, his old mentor wasn’t there to help him figure it out, he was going to have to try to figure this out by himself.
Cloud couldn’t help him, he was sleeping soundly, Tifa was busy taking care of Cloud…and he himself? He was going to find that silver haired man, and he was going to get answers! Nodding his head, he walked to his bike, but after getting on, sat there for a few minutes. Where am I even supposed to look for him? He obviously doesn’t just hang out…what am I supposed to…arg!!! He couldn’t fight Sephiroth and win…he knew that! If Sephiroth only had the power when they had been alive the first time, no powers from the lifestream, and he himself had the powers he had learned while in the lifestream, he would have had a chance. He had learned a lot of new abilities, like being able to use magic without the use of material, but Sephiroth, had learned all that and more! And Cloud, he was stronger then Sephiroth, but ever time Sephiroth went back into the lifestream, he became stronger…it was so complex.
He didn’t even want to think of the possibility of fighting Cloud, because he knew…he wouldn’t be able to come anywhere close to winning. Cloud could defeat Sephiroth, something he had never been able to do. Wait…why was he even thinking about that?!? He would never fight Cloud…never! This was one thing he would never get pushed into doing! Shaking his head to clear himself of those thoughts, he started his bike and drove away. He had asked Tifa about the silver haired man, and she had said his name was…Yazoo, other then that, he really didn’t know anything else about him other then the fact that he was a remnant of Sephiroth. And how did that work anyway?!
driving while thinking, he somehow ended up in Edge. Better look around… So driving around, he drove through the city, ending up on the other side. He was just going to turn back around and look for him in the same place he had last time when his eyes narrowed in on the same silver haired man, his bike up on top of a large cliff. He also knew there was no way up there without being seen, so he just went the way that was the quickest…right toward him…

Cloud was fast asleep still when Tifa walked in....It would take more than some one calling out his name to wake him up....He slept most of all the day....He really took a beating from Sephiroth the day before....Only thing to worry about now...Was when Cloud wakes up...How will he react to seeing Tifa or any one else...? He was different. He seemed soundly asleep....Tifa had no idea what happened...And the three brothers; Sephiroth, Kadaj and Yazoo wanted to keep it that way....It was Yazoo's job though to tell Zack everything....Everything meaning; everything that Sephiroth wanted him to know....And today would be that day....
Cloud moved his head towards where Tifa was standing as the wind continued to blow in to his room from the open window....He was still bare....You could see from chest to abs down....But obviously, it was a hot day....Even his breathing was normal....He was Cloud....On the out side....But soon they will all know what he really is now....Yazoo told Zack right...He lost his friend....It would all be up to Zack to decide if death awaits his young friend....A terrible decision....But first thing is first....Letting Zack know everything.....A trigger from the J Cells....told Cloud open his eyes....He looked right up at Tifa....And with a confused look....A look like he had never seen her before in his life...."Who are you....?"

"Come to the out skirts of Edge....If you wish to know what's happened to your friend...A truce for now...." He sent Zack a text to his phone....Yazoo was able to get Zack's phone number from Cloud's old phone....And sent him a direct text....Zack would know who it was that sent it...All Yazoo had to do was wait....This was way before he met Repa....And was stil determined.....to destroy this planet...He thought like Sephiroth....This planet needed to be destroyed....So his eldest brother could sail the cosmos like he wished a long time ago....Yazoo would tell Zack everything but by the time he knew everything....Yazoo knew that Sephiroth gave Cloud his first order...To kill Tifa!
And Yazoo knew that was what Cloud would the minute he knew who Tifa was....It was a matter of time that pathetic little girlfriend would be dead....and by the time Zack would get there....It would be too late....He would see her lifeless body....And grieve.....Yazoo waited to hear Zack cry out in pain! He wanted to hurt Zack more than any one else right now...But Sephiroth's orders kept him from doing so....When Zack would find Tifa dead....Zack would have no choice to fight his best friend and kill him......

Did he just ask who she was? It looked serious and for a minute Tifa did believe it but then she just laughed shaking her head. "Come on Cloud...... stop playing games you scared me there for a minute......" Tifa was worried about him he wasn't acting like himself but she didn't believe that he really forgot who she was. She thought that he was joking to ease the tension.
"So how are you feeling?" She asked placing the tray of food in her hand on a table and smiled at Cloud as she placed a hand on his shoulder. Tifa of course had no idea what happened. No one told her yet. She knew that this had something to do with Sephiroth. He was always the one to blame, but she had no idea how serious this was.

Zack Fair
Zack had gotten the text from someone unknown. He had been hoping strangely it would be Yazoo, but how the heck would he have gotten his phone number? Who else would know about what was happening to Cloud though?! He had to take a chance, even if it was a trick just to draw him somewhere to be ‘wiped out.’ He’d like to see them try to wipe him out! He was even more confident in his abilities then he was before he had died, which might not be a good thing. He was cocky, but not as cocky as before. He had learned from experience that being cocky could get you killed, and yet, he forgot that a lot of the time…which got him in trouble a lot, although he did have the abilities to back up his words.
So as he raced up the hillside after spotting the silver haired man…Yazoo, he went airborn, flying over him, and he managed to twist the bike in midflight to land where he wanted. Should he talk? Or simply go into fighting Yazoo? Yazoo had mentioned a truce…but who could trust a Sephiroth remnant?! He put his foot down to touch the ground, the bike just sitting there, revving, but not going anywhere since he held the brake in. His sword was out, held loosely in his right hand, the tip resting on the ground.
What to do…what to do…? But he couldn’t afford not to get the information Yazoo had. He cautiously looked around before shutting off his bike and leaning back a little bit. “Alright, I’m here, now spit out what happened to Cloud!” He took his hand off the steering wheel and let it rest on his leg. He needed to know what happened! He had to help Cloud fend off Sephiroth yet again. Why did Sephiroth have to be so intent on fighting with Cloud!? Couldn’t his best friend ever catch a break?

((It's okay Zack^^ XD))
"Come on Cloud...... stop playing games you scared me there for a minute......" "So how are you feeling?" After she placed a hand on his shoulder he reached over and grabbed her hand with his tight.....
"I asked you a question....Who are you?" He was so not himself! He changed the minute Sephiroth and Jenova took over his soul! He was betraying a Remnant....He was acting like Sephiroth...His eyes were even changed a dark shade of gray! Not Mako Blue....He was different now....The Cloud Tifa fell in love with was dead for now....And there was no way that Tifa would know unless she was smart enough to understand it....
"Seriously!! Tell me who you are!!" He was getting impatient with her....Even that night they shared when he told her that he wanted to way to know that it was him was long gone....All the memories he had with Tifa were gone! Everything was gone! Cloud didn't know that Tifa had not known what had happened to him...."Are you in league with Sephiroth or not?!!" Cloud would never ask Tifa that! The real Cloud despised Sephiroth!

“Alright, I’m here, now spit out what happened to Cloud!”
Yazoo smiled his back facing Zack's face....As he was steadily starring out towards Edge....Standing on the very spot where Zack had died! The wind kicked up slightly....Yazoo was holding a ball in his hand....It was fire materia....He did call for a truce....But you had to be prepared....
"Hmmmm.....I thought I told you a truce.....No matter....I can prepared myself....About Cloud....my brother took care of him....He's not the same guy you used to know Zack....Sephiroth told me everything that you two have been through....And that it was Cloud that killed Sephiroth.....And that you were too weak as usual to finish the job! That's one reason Sephiroth wanted Cloud siding with us....Cloud has been infused in to the Darkness by my mother....And brother....If you want him back....You have one option....You have to fight and kill him....Sephiroth read Cloud's mind months ago while he was in the Realm of Darkness.....Cloud made you promise to kill him if any thing were to happen to Cloud....Isn't that correct?"
Yazoo finally turned around to dace Zack then and placed the materia into his fore arm....Just as Kadaj had did once as well.....Yazoo's remnant green eyes were glowing with anger.....as he starred down Zack.....
"Sephiroth is and always will be the dark side of Cloud.....You can't just avoid that Zack.....Unfortunately for you....You have too much Light inside yourself.....Cloud was easy to get to....Because I made sure you never arrived to his aid! Remember that? It was all apart of my brother and mothers plan....To get Cloud on our side....And it worked!! You're world will be drenched in Darkness soon enough!! Pointless talking huh....? But you now know what has happened to your so called friend! He warned you about the Darkness he carries....And you just avoided that as well!! You think there is some good in every one!! You are so pathetic!! As of now.....Cloud's first mission....Is to kill the one person he's ever loved.....Tifa Lockhart....."

Cloud's tone changed, even the way he gripped her hand this wasn't like him, and this was definitely not a joke. His eyes even changed color and that only scared Tifa more what was happening to him. She didn't have a clue or why he was acting like this. 'Its like....... like he completely forgot me......' She thought but was this really possible.
"I uh..... I am Tifa...... don't you remember me......?" She asked trying to stay as calm as possible, her eyes though failed her as they soon filled with worry and fear for the man beside her.
Tifa struggled to free her hand from Cloud's firm grip he never held her like that before he was always more gentle and carrying what happened to him? The question he asked got to her 'in league with Sephiroth?' She clenched her fists at that question.
How could Cloud ask that or even mention his name when he knew how she felt about the man that killed her father and burned her hometown to the ground. "Never....... Sephiroth is my enemy and I would do what ever it takes to bring him down."

Zack Fair
Zack just shook his head in exasperation as Yazoo stared off toward Edge. He knew well enough where they were, it was the last thing he knew of his past life. It was his end, the end of Hero, the end of a life, one much to young to be facing what he had been. Who deserved what he and Cloud had been put through?! What had they ever done…? He didn’t want his mind to wander, so he wasn’t thinking about the last time he had been here. That memory was one he wished to forget! Who wanted to remember their death anyway? His hand still rested on his sword, and his keen eyes noticed that Yazoo had come loaded and ready as well. He smiled in a grim respect. No matter what was said about them, Sephiroth and his remnants were fighters. He himself would never be caught without his sword. Maybe he was addicted to fighting, like Aerith had told him long ago, that he loved it. He himself knew that while if he didn’t have to fight he wouldn’t, when the heat of the battle came, he liked it. It felt good, to be able to kick butt.
He chuckled, “Yeah, you told me truce Yazoo but I noticed that you have your own weapons with you. Besides, what SOLDIER, ex or not, would ever be caught without his weapon? None that are worth anything, that’s for sure.” He listened quietly to what Yazoo told him. “Your brother meaning Sephiroth?” No anger showed when Yazoo spoke about him being to weak. In fact, a hint of a smile was up on his lips. “Tell me something I don’t already know would ya? Its my life, don’t you think I know that I didn’t defeat Sephiroth? Have I ever claimed to do that? No, Cloud gets all that glory, I know that, you know that, we all know that Yazoo, stop acting like its something that was hidden.”
But everything changed when he said that he had one choice. He knew he was much stronger…that came from the lifestream, it gave him more power, more knowledge, as it had Sephiroth. If Yazoo knew even a part of Sephiroth’s knowledge, he would sense that he had more power. He didn’t know exactly how much more, for he was still mastering his new strength. He didn’t even think Cloud knew he was more powerful, he had tried to keep it a secret, one because it might come in handy to have strength that was unknown, and second, because he didn’t feel like telling anyone. As he sat there however, he looked Yazoo clearly in the eyes, held his gaze, but he had never been good at hiding his emotions, and that hadn’t changed. It hurt to even think of fighting Cloud…could he do it? Was he strong enough to look his best friend in the eye and fight him?
Cloud was the strongest person…Sephiroth and Cloud were the two strongest in the universe…could he ever defeat Cloud? Even if he could, could he do the ending blow? He closed his eyes and took in a deep painful breath. The last straw was when Yazoo reminded him of that promise. He felt the anger well up in him, and putting the kickstand down, slowly got off the bike he was on. Standing upright beside his sword, he simply looked at Yazoo, an odd expression on his face. “You call me weak…but do you even know me? You have never actually fought me…and when you do…Yazoo, remnant of Sephiroth, you will never defeat me, who you call weak.” Yazoo’s green cat like eyes were staring at him in anger, and Zack smiled, although it wasn’t his normal happy, easy going smile, this one was a challenge.
He knew all of this, and though he didn’t like it, he knew Yazoo was right, Sephiroth was Cloud’s dark side, Could they ever get rid of the silver haired devil? He had a strong lightness in his body, while Cloud had a strong darkness. He almost growled when Yazoo spoke of making sure he didn’t arrive in time to talk Cloud out of the darkness. He knew there was another reason as to why Yazoo had attacked him, everything was falling into place in his mind. He shook his head, “Yazoo, you don’t know me at all. There isn’t goodness in everyone, you and the rest of you remnants are examples of that.” His hand closed around the hilt of his sword, but before he could pull it out of the ground, Yazoo spoke once again. Zack’s eyes changed, from determined and ready, to startled and anxious. “NO!! Dammit! NO!!” He closed his eyes and jerked the sword out of the ground, every ounce of anger he had in his entire body came bubbling to the surface. “Why don’t you just stay dead?! Dammit What did any of us ever do to you?!” Clenching his left hand into a fist, his anger left him. “You said I was weak…wanna find out?” He was utterly confident in himself, and the deadly light in his eyes was different. But should he be spending the time fighting Yazoo? When right now Cloud might be fighting Tifa?

"I uh..... I am Tifa...... don't you remember me......?" "Never....... Sephiroth is my enemy and I would do what ever it takes to bring him down." Cloud saw her fist clench then....As he got right out of bed....And grabbed his shirt and zipped it back up.....As he advanced himself towards her....."You're the one Sephiroth was talking about?! I've gotta do my duty and bring you down!" His voice was much more deeper than his usual one.....He was not going to leave until she was dead!
His eyes burned with darkness....It was as though the Heartless took his heart and soul as well....Which it was really Sephiroth that twisted his mind that he had become a monster....With a little bit of Jenova's help as well.....Cloud was so not himself! And if Zack lingered where he was for long, then Zack would come back to only find, Tifa dead! Cloud grabbed a hold of his sword then....And was so close to Tifa that she would feel his breath on her cheeks! And that's when it happened....He had hurt her more! And grabbed her by the throat! And slammed her against the wall!
"Good bye!!"

There isn’t goodness in everyone, you and the rest of you remnants are examples of that.” “NO!! Dammit! NO!!” Zack was actually now catching on what he was saying to him....That Cloud was gone completely! Unless some thing drastic was done....And with Aerith back and alive.....She could no longer help Cloud....As if she would help Cloud any way....The girl had disappeared from everyone....But even Yazoo had no idea of what Aerith was....Only Sephiroth knew she was an Ancient.....The last one actually....That's what Aerith and Cloud had in common....She was the only one left....And he was the one that was tied in with Sephiroth....The only one left.....But now that had changed....Zack was back....And he too had Sephiroth's genes inside him....But all of the Remnants knew that Zack was stronger than Cloud....And had more light in him....So Zack was a poor choice to try and taunt....Cloud was also the only one that was able to kill Sephiroth....Even before Zack's death! Cloud was just to precious to the Remnants....They couldn't have some one like Cloud in league with the Light! So that was one reason to get Cloud over on their side....Now Cloud was!
“Why don’t you just stay dead?! Dammit What did any of us ever do to you?!” “You said I was weak…wanna find out?”
"Hmmm.....Even though I said a truce....You still wanna fight me....? That is so typical of your humans......You stand up for what you believe in....You say you are no longer a Soldier....Well, isn't fighting part of the Soldier life Zacky....? You are still acting like one! I wouldn't be so hyped up on a fight either way! Right now your so called best friend is trying to kill the one person he ever loved!! I thought for a minute you were the kind that looked after Cloud....Obviously you care more about fighting than him! I know of the promise you made him Zacky.....And you are breaking it right now!!" Yazoo had all the pointers on how to make Zacks skin crawl up....And his spine shiver! He was told all this by Sephiroth....Thanks to Sephiroth for reading every thought in Cloud's mind a few months ago......Yazoo was still not raising his weapon at Zack....Yazoo was told on direct orders that he needed to lead Zack directly to Cloud!
