(The Turks drag themselves out of Midgar. They look battle worn, since AVALANCHE kicked their butts. Reno rubs his head.)
Reno: Ouch...not again... (Rude searches through his jacket)
Rude: ????? (Elena follows suit)
Elena: My Minerva Armlet!!! That ninja brat stole it!! (Yuffie runs out of Midgar, plowing Elena down)
Cloud: Yuffie! Get back here with our materia!!!
Tifa: and our items!!
Barrett: 'n everything else that ya' got yer thieven hands on!! (Yuffie graps ahold of Reno's jacket)
Yuffie: You gotta help me! Hide me! Do something! (Reno crosses his arms)
Reno: Why should we could help you? (Yuffie gets really nervous)
Yuffie: Ummmm....because...uh...I can help you find Tseng! Yeah, That's it! and besides I got their materia, and I'll give you guys your stuff back. (Reno begins to speak, but Elena pushes him down)
Elena: You mean you know what happened to him???? (she turns to Reno and Rude.) We have to let her help us!!! (Reno and Rude look at each other. Rude shruggs)
Reno: Alright, we'll head for Kalm. (The four run before AVALANCHE can reach them.)
(Yuffie and the Turks are at Kalm's Inn. Yuffie tells them the whole story. Elena looks like she's about to faint)
Elena: and then Sephiroth....
Yuffie: just like he did with President ShinRa and Aeris. (she pretends to slit her throat with her index finger. Elena breaks out in tears)
Rude: ...
Reno: I don't believe it...
Elena: Now we'll never get him back!! (she runs out, crying, and runs back in) It's AVALANCHE!!! they're here!!
Yuffie: Allow me! (Yuffie dashes a smoke bomb on the floor. They disappear as AVALANCHE runs in)
Cloud: (coughing) Yuffie!! Where are you?!!? Yuffie!
Yuffie: hee hee hee hee!!
(They grap a Gold Chocobo, also stolen, and head for Wutai. Yuffie's father is waiting for her)
Yuffie: Dad!! (she hugs him, but she realizes something is wrong) Dad, what's wrong?
Godo: Yuffie, your brother's alive...
Yuffie: but...but...
Godo: (wispering) Trust me... (he looks at her friends) You don't think that they would have any materia on them, do you? (Yuffie shows him the Turks' materia stash. Godo laughs) You make me sooo proud! Let me tell you something...Anchients are known to turn into materia when they die...(Yuffie gives Godo a strange look)
Yuffie: What's that gotta do with...ooohhh. OK! Bye, Dad! (She runs into Turtle's Inn, where the Turks are)
Reno: (Between drinks) So what he have to say?
Yuffie: We have to go to the Anchient Forest. (the three Turks look at each other, and wisper to themselves)
Reno: Alright, we'll follow you, but if this is a trap...
Yuffie: Don't worry (remeber, Yuffie stole ALL of AVALANCHE's stuff, including their Lunar Harp...)
(They reach the Anchient City, to the place where Aeris was killed. Sephiroth is standing on the platform)
Reno: Sephiroth?!? (The Turks go into their fighting stances. Yuffie pulls out her conformer. Sephiroth chuckles.)
Sephiroth: (to Yuffie) Ha ha ha. So, I see that you have done well for yourself little one...(to the Turks) I think you'll be happy to know that your friend is fine, if only comatose... (he steps aside to reveal Tseng's life-less body floating in mid-air)
Yuffie and Elena: Tseng!!! (Both of them charge at Sephiroth.)
Reno & Rude: --;;;;;;
Reno: That's Elena for ya...
Rude: but why is Yuffie so concerned...? (Yuffie and Elena reach Sephiroth, when Sephiroth flys away leaving behind a strange looking blue materia and a nasty suprise, a purple octopus. ^^;;; Yuffie and Elena fight it, but get soundly beaten. Yuffie jumps up)
Yuffie: What?! You think you're gonna get away with that?!?
Ultros: Silence! You are in the pressance of octopus royality!! A low born thug like you can never defeat me!!
(A voice booms through Yuffie's mind. It sounds just like Aeris.)
?????: Yuffie, link that materia to a Fire materia and shout, "Wutai Materia Power, Make Up!"
Yuffie: No way! That can't be Aeris!! (The Turks look at her as if she's going nuts)
?????: Please!!
Yuffie: Alright... Wutai Materia Power, Make Up! (Yuffie tosses her conformer in air. She's surrounded by a red light, as her Conformer circles around her leaving behind a trail of fire, creating her sailor outfit. She calls her weapon to her as she does her magic casting sequence, and a flash of fire circles around her as she poses)
Yuffie: On behalf of Wutai, on the behalf of justice and the planet, I will steal your heart and anything else that you have! I am Sailor Wutai and you're punished.
Ulty: What? You really think that a buncha fancy schamcy moves and lines are gonna scare me??!
Sailor Wutai: No...but maybe this will! All Creation!! (nothing happens)
Ulty: oooooo...I'm shaking in my tentecles!!!
Wutai: oh my Gawd!! It didn't work!!
?????: Shout, "Pyrotech Lightning!"
Wutai: Pyrotech Lighting! (Yuffie runs at the Octopus and does a fire-based version of her Greased Lighting Limit Break)
Ultys: No! I can't believe I lost again, and this time I don't have anyone to help me!!! Ultros turns into ashes. Yuffie detransforms, and rubs her hands together. The other Turks run up to join them.)
Reno: Where'd that come from?!? (Yuffie notices a summon materia on the floor and picks it up. Yuffie looks at the others)
Yuffie: You think? (Reno shrugs)
Yuffie: (holding up the materia. Yuffie surrounds herself in a red aura.) Great Gospel! (a pink light appears before her. It starts to glow brighter and brighter and it dims. Aeris is seen standing where the light was.)
Yuffie: Miss Aeris!!! I thought you were...(she runs up to Aeris, hugging her and crying.) Umm Miss Aeris, There's something I need to give back to you...(she hands a blue materia to Aeris. Aeris is about to speak when Sephiroth appears)
Sephiroth: Please...spare me your sappy reunion...as I prepare for my own...X-Zone! (He creates a black portal, and starts to leave throught it with Tseng)
Aeris: Why do you need him??
Sephiroth: Why...to resusrect Mage X, the one who can help enough gather enough energy for my mother, of course...Now If you'll premit me...
Aeris: (holds up the blue materia that Yuffie gave her) Cetra Materia Power, Make Up! (Several pearls orbit around Aeris. They close on her untill all you see are pearls. They start to glow brighter and brighter. Then in a flash of light, she's covered in a silver/ lavender Sailor costume.) On behalf of the Line of the Cetra and the Planet, I will not allow you to bring her back. I am the protector of the planet: Sailor Cetra!
Yuffie: Yeah! We all know that villians with bad bleach hair jobs never win! I hope you're ready, you pasty-faced momma's boy! Wutai Materia Power, Make Up! (I already explaned her transformation...)
Sephiroth: hmmp! Mother's associate, Queen Beryl, has warned us about you...you senshi...(He sniffs at the idea) Well...I am pleased to know that we will be expecting a challenge...(Sephiroth demateralizes, forgetting about Tseng. Yuffie stares at Aeris, who covers her mouth and giggles. Tseng's body slowly drifts down to the floor. Elena kneels down to his side, and checks his pluse.)
Elena: He's alive...barely, but he's alive! (she looks at Aeris teary-eyed)
Elena: Please, if there's anything that you could do...save him...! (Sailor Cetra nodds, and kneels down opposite of Elena. Sailor Wutai joins her. Sailor Cetra places her fingers on Tseng's forehead, and starts to chant. As she does, a pink light surrounds her and Tseng)
Cetra: Cetra Healing Resusecta! (Tseng's eyes slowly open. He sits up painfully and looks around)
Tseng: Ugh...What happened...? Elena? Reno? Rude?
Reno: Yeah..We're all here, Tseng. (Cetra and Wutai detransform. Yuffie glares at Tseng. She's about to attack him, but Aeris holds her back)
Yuffie: mmmmmph!
Aeris: I'm glad to see that you're Ok.
Tseng: Oh...Aeris...
Aeris: I must leave now. There's no telling what Sephiroth has in mind...(She releases Yuffie, who has seemed to have calmed down)
Yuffie: But...but...what about the others? (Aeris shakes her head, creates a portal of light and exits. Yuffie and others hear a voice)
Aeris: No one else must know that I am alive. Yuffie, give Cloud back his materia
Yuffie: Awwww do I have to? (Yuffie exits)
Reno: Hey, Elena, would you mind leaving us alone for a moment... (Elena begins to protest, but decides to hold her tongue and exits with Yuffie. Reno turns to Tseng)
Reno: Elena told us ALL about it...
Tseng: About what...?
Reno: About you and Elena...C'mon ask her! (Tseng looks at Reno as if he has a few screws loose. He then realizes what Reno's talking about. Reno and Rude exit. Tseng stands there for a moment, thinking it over, and follows. The four reunited Turks are at the Turtle's Paradise drinking and celebrating. Tseng stands up and coughs. Everyone else becomes silent.)
Tseng: I wish to make two anouncments: We must decide what we will do since ShinRa has been defeated. (Reno, Rude, and Elena look at each other)
Reno: What about siding with AVALANCHE? We have nothing better to do. Besides, mercenaries don't really get paid that well.
Elena: (stands up) I'm sure that whatever you decide will be the right choice...
Reno & Rude: --;;;;;;;;;;
Tseng: I also wish to make a propossal...
Reno, Rude & Elena: ????? (Tseng walks over to Elena, and places a ring on her finger.)
Tseng: Elena, will you marry me? (Elena faints on the floor. Johnny walks in, and notices Reno)
Reno: Johnny...??!?
Johnny: Reno! (Johnny gives Reno a noogie) Hey, long time no see little bro!
Reno: Not in front of the guys....! Wait a sec...guys, this is Johnny, my older brother. Johnny, these're my (coughs) co-workers, Tseng and Rude. That mess on the floor is Elena.
Johnny: (diging his toes in the floor) ummm... hi. (Tseng and Rude nod) (nods towards Elena) Fainted, huh? (he takes out some smelling salts. Elena bolts up and wrinkles her nose)
Elena: What was that?! (she looks at Johnny) Who are you..? (Johnny's too tongue-tied to answer)
Reno: That's my brother, Johnny. (Elena shakes her head.) What happened? (Reno smiles, and his nod at Tseng)
Elena: Oh yeah! Yes, of course I will! (Elena hugs Tseng. Reno starts to tear up)
?????: Alright! I'm gonna break this touchy feely moment up to bring you this important message...(Yuffie runs into the bar and tackles Tseng) WHY DIDJA DO IT, BRO?!?!?
Reno, Rude & Elena: ???????
Tseng: What are you talking about?
Yuffie: You! You're my older brother! You sold us out for the ShinRa, jerk!
Reno: Ah-hem!
Yuffie: oh...(Yuffie puts an innocent smile on her face. Cloud and Tifa walk in)
Cloud: Yuffie, get back to AVALANCHE HQ, and help set the bar up. (Reno and Rude's ears perk up. Yuffie sniffs and runs out)
Reno: A bar? Hmmm...(looks at Rude)
Tifa (bowing) I'm sorry if she caused you any trouble
Elena: Tseng, you never told us that you had a sister
Cloud: Yuffie's your sister?
Tseng: --;;;
Cloud: My sympathies...
Tifa: We came here to invite you four to our wedding. Can you make it?
Reno: Is the party at that new bar? (Cloud sighs and nods)
Reno: Count me in! (Rude nods)
Tseng: Yes, if you can make it to ours.
Tifa: You're getting married? That's great!
Johnny: What happened to Aeris? (Cloud bows his head, Tifa starts to sob, and the Turks pretend that they don't know what the hecks gonna on. There's an eerie silence for a moment)
Johnny: Poor Aeris....
Cloud: C'Mon. Let's go help Yuffie. There's no telling what she'd do next... (Cloud and Tifa exit)
Reno: (sniffs and pretends to take out a hankerchief) That was beautiful...! Hey, Rude. I won the bet. Fork it over.
Rude:... (Rude digs into his pockets and hands Reno a couple gil)
Elena: What was the bet about?
Reno: Uwa! Nothing!
Elena: No! Tell me...!
Reno: You talk too much, Elena... (Elena chases Reno. Rude follows.)
Tseng: --;;;; (exits)
