Harry Potter and the Planet ~ Harry Potter/Final Fantasy VII

At the sudden and seemingly random question Cloud had to ask; "Rank?"

 

"You know, in SOLDIER." Aerith said, verifying her question.

 

"Oh, I was..."

Everything went white in Cloud's mind for a second...

"First Class."

 

"Just the same as him." Aerith said with a soft smile.

 

"The same as who?" Cloud, asked a bit curious.

 

"My first boyfriend." Aerith told him simply.

 

"You were... serious?" Cloud asked, curiously.

 

"No. But I liked him for a while." Aerith said, with a little blush.

OOC: The blush is for all the ZackxAerith fans out there, which I am one.

 

"I probably knew him. What was his name?" Cloud asked, thinking of the First Class's he knew.
There weren't many first classes... so odds are, he would know who Aerith was talking about.

 

Aerith shook her head, she told him, "It doesn't really matter." A huge gate opened in the back. A large carriage drawn by a chocobo came out, driving the carriage and holding the reins of the chocobo was a young boy with raven black hair and green eyes. A woman was riding in the back, wearing some kind of dress. She glanced at Cloud and Aerith as she rode by.

 

"Huh? Hey, back there....." Cloud mumbled as he looked after the carriage. He then stood up. "Tifa!?"

The carriage drove out and the gate closed.

 

"That girl in the cart was Tifa? Where was she going? She looked kind of odd..." Aerith said, she hopped down and chased after the cart.

 

"Wait!"
"I'll go on alone! You go home!"

But she didn't listen. She chased after the carriage. Cloud shook his
head and went after her.

 

Cloud and Aerith arrived in Wall Market, busy with the hustle and bustle of people. Aerith ran around, checking things out. "This place is scary in a lot of ways. Especially for a girl. So we've got to find Tifa fast."

 

Footsteps were heard behind them as Leonhardt approached the two from a store "The lady is right about this place, last time I been here, it's run by Don Corneo, a man whose pockets literally aim for practically women." He explained and checked the area by scannign with his eyes. "If the carriage is any sign of anything, the Don's selecting three women to choose from but from I heard so far, there's onyl one girl whose at his mansion, a girl wearing a blue outfit."

 

"Cloud, that must be Tifa! We have to save her!" Aerith told Cloud, some footsteps were heard and a voice said, "Uh, how are you going to get into the mansion? The Don isn't exactly into men." Harry had walked from the direction of the Don's Mansion, still wearing his escort outfit.

 

Cloud looked at the expression on Aerith's face and could tell what she was thinking.
"No! You can't.
You DO know... what kind of... place this is, don't you?" he said crossing his arms.

 

"Then, what am I supposed to do? You want to go in with me?" Aerith said, looking at him. Harry sweat dropped and was pretty sure he knew where this was going, but his main problem was how he got roped into helping Tifa on this mission.

 

"Well being a man, that'll be pretty hard. Besides if I bust in
there, it'll cause too much commotion."

Cloud noticed Aerith was giggling, and assumed she was laughing at him being over protective... well, in a way, he was still her bodyguard...

"But, I just can't let you go in alone... Oh, man......
First, we'll need to find out if Tifa's alright....
What's so funny, Aerith?"

 

"Cloud, why don't you dress up like a girl? It's the only way." Aerith told him, still giggling, Harry put his hand over his mouth to hide his laughter. He tried not to think of that image.
