Chapter 6
They return to the canyon. The unspoken question: Will Jenova kill Chancey and Art? It is late night when they get there. It has been quiet since they last left. Possibly one of the most ideal places to keep Cloud. The coffin still rested in the secret cave undisturbed. Then the heroes settle down, each one with their own worries. By morning they call Kain. He had some reports to give them. More raids were made on some of the towns. Kain has been monitoring the activities of the masses and found another gathering going towards the Northern crater. The Turk recommends they take some men with them before going north. To put a small unit together, he needed a few days. Till then, he asks for them go to Gongaga. A town near Cosmo Canyon that didn’t have much protection.
They got there when one of the smaller raiding parties are attacking the town. Madnol proves very efficient with the shuriken. Zackery has the same number of kills. The two friends compteting to see who racks up the most kills. Vincent is moving the weaker people out of danger. They soon slaughtered the raiding monsters. Xavier gather the wounded and Madnol treating their wounds. Vincent and Zackery use this time to check the area out. Among the defenders, there were no casualties that day.
All the towns people are very grateful and cook a feast to show it. The heroes decide to stay for the feast and help remove the dead monsters. For a moment they forget about Cloud having to be watched. A reminder is soon made. Madnol is on the bridge checking things out when the radio goes off. He hurries over to them the news.
Madnol, “There has been a raid on Cosmo Canyon. They stole the coffin.”
Zackery, “I bet the monsters go north.”
Madnol, “Lets catch them!”
They all hurry to Highwind and move out. Group of creatures is spotted running north. Highwind lands ahead of them and they rush out to attack. Madnol stays at the controls while the others confront the creatures.
The creatures have sapient characteristics. They stand on their hind legs, with arm like limbs and intelligent eyes. They see none of them have a box with them. Instead one creature had Cloud cradled in it’s arms, who was still sleeping. Xavier rushes one creature, his twin swords slashing deep gashes into’s its chest. Zackery takes his sword,Ultima, and beheads one of the creatures. Vincent shoots two of them down.
Then, Art makes his entrance and flies down from the sky. With his help, they kill the monsters at a quicker pace. Art walks over to Cloud and puts something around his neck. Cloud briefly opens his eyes, softly sighs, and goes back to sleep. Zackery notices Art didn’t seem to be willing to make eye contact. While Art picks Cloud up and Zackery walked over to him.
Zackery, “Art, you are back?”
Art, “I managed to escape. “
Zackery, “Where is Chancey?”
Art, “As far as I know she is still alive. I am sorry about this.... “ Uses his wings and takes off.
Zackery, “Art! Damn, what is up?”
Zackery jumps aboard Highwind and orders Madnol to go after Art. They can see him up ahead. Zackery is on the top deck, trying to reason with Art.
Zackery, yelling, “Stop! We can’t let you take Cloud. Think about what you are doing!”
Then, the airship starts to jerk to the . Z. Zackery has to cling to a rail to keep from falling over. Then, the airship jerks to the right. Zackery beguns trying to get to the bridge. After some hard turns, he stumbles down the steps. The airship is drifting when he reached the bridge. Madnol is on the ground in a fetal position. It looked like someone kicked Madnol in the nuts. Zackery sees the wheel is up and uses it to keep the Highwind from plowing into one of the cliffs near Cosmo Canyon. Zackery tries to steer the Highwind in Arts direction, but something is fighting him. Then he realized that Art is long gone. They give up the chase and got back to pick up the others. By now Madnol has mostly recovered. The others quickly go to the bridge.
Vincent, “You didn’t catch Art?”
Zackery, “No.”
Xavier, “What happened?”
Madnol, “I was piloting when the control went nuts. So, I used the backup wheel. The Highwind began to act weird and refused to give chase. As if someone was fighting me. . . Then something smack me in the balls.”
Zackery, “I tried to pilot it, but something fought back.”
Vincent, “What could have. . . . Is it possible. . . ?“
Xavier, “What?”
Vincent then speaks out loud, “Okay, enough of this! Come on out, old man!”
They see the image of someone appear on the bridge. It took them a moment to recognize Cid Highwind. He is sitting on a chair with his arms crossed, watching them with an asshole smile.
Vincent, “So, it was you who stopped pursuit.”
Cid nods.
Zackery, “Why?”
Cid looks at them and then tries to talk, but they can’t hear anything.
Vincent, “You can’t talk . . . “
Cid gives him a look that says no shit.
Madnol, “You were the one who flew Highwind to save the other?”
Cid nods.
Zackery, “You know why Art took Cloud?”
Cid nods.
Zackery, “Will you give us a clue to why?”
Cid shakes his head no.
Vincent, “It will benefit us?”
Cid shrugs.
Vincent, “Will you lead us to where Jenova is?”
Cid nods with a smirk. He was wondering when they would ask something useful.
They head back to Cosmo Canyon to find out the damage. The monsters did very little damage. Vincent has a talk with Nanaki, while Zackery calls Kain. Kain reports to him that the troops are almost ready. Zackery only wishes they know why Art took Cloud. All they can do is board the Highwind and hope Art knows what he is doing.
Vincent, “Take us to Tylunar Headquarters, please.”
Madnol, “No problem, ancient one.”
They can feel the presence of someone laughing. They stop by the headquarters to pick up Kain and some troops. Kain wanted to see the end of this fight himself. leaves Syliara in charge while he was gone. They fly Highwind towards the northern crater. Cid, in his own way, shows them where to park the airship. Friced to use hand gestures and maps to point them where they need to go. The only times Cid looked pissed was when they forget he couldn’t talk by asking him complex questions. Questions you can’t answer with a yes or no. This time, they have to go deeper into the crater. The foromer pilot disappears before they even landed leaving the heroes on their own.
~~~
Art is in another part of the crater. Cloud laid out in the center of the room. Art feels the presence of people in the cave. Cloud wakes up seeing Art and also feeling the presence of others. The souls of his old friends appeared. Tifa, Yuffie, Cid, Barret, Aeris,and Reeve. They approach and surround their former leader Cloud. That is when Art takes jhis leave to Art left him find the others.
