The Twleve Stars, Chapter 5:
Strange Days


---I wonder if there are many "Strange happenings" in these "Strange Days"...


Vincent awoke to sight of snow falling outside the bedroom window.

---He always wakes up when there's snow.

He
then turned over to see Aerith.

---But she wasn't there.

She was sleeping peacefully, her hand
on his chest.

---Monitoring his breathing rate.

Other than taking a bath, he didn't remember much about
last night.

---Taking a bath was the high point.

As he slowly got up, he looked at the floor to see his and
Aeris' clothing strewn about.

---"The cleaning lady's going to have a fit."

He then suddenly remembered exactly what
had happened.

---THEIR CLOSET EXPLODED!!!!

Last night, the two had been sitting on the bed talking.


---Wow. That really explains it there.

Aeris had then placed a hand on his shoulder, looked him straight in the
eyes, and

---Told him to clean the room.

smiled. They'd then begun to kiss,which had eventually
escalated into...you know.

---Really descriptive gratuitous sex scences here. Wow. Really "wink wink, nudge nudge" like.

---And why is this so foreign for a married couple?

Vincent quietly got dressed and went out to
the main hall.

---Where their Fridge had recently exploded.

(I how what Yuffie is doing)

---WHAT!?!?!?! Fanfics for the Grammatically challenged.

he thought as he stared out
the window, watching the first snowfall of the season...


---"...probably knitting by the fire, with Godo near by..."


"No! You can't make me do this!"

---"We will fight for our rights until we DIE!!!!!"

yelled Edgar as he ran down the
hallway, clad in only his underwear and a towel draped around his
shoulders.


---So this is what Yuffie is doing?

"Your clothes are in the wash and you can't walk around in your
underwear all day,

---At least I HOPE you don't!

so you're going to have to wear some of Godo's old
clothes! Besides, you're our guest"

---"Guests must always wear dusty, stinky, old clothes."


"Oh, alright. I just hope I don't have to wear anything too ridiculous
looking..."


---Or dressing up as some mystical elf.


Moments later, Edgar was wearing a sky-blue tunic and a black pair of
pants.

---Which they had swiftly gathered from Vincent's floor.

Yuffie smiled and said "It's really you!"


---I can't believe you exist!!

(It really is me...) thought Edgar as he looked at reflection.

---Hmm.... I guess I really do exist. Hmm.... I've always wondered about that.

Then
Yuffie said "Come on, I wanna show you something" She then lead Edgar
to the Dachao Statues.

---Really "To the point" writing style.

As they walked along the winding trails, Yuffie
began to notice it was a little too quiet.

---There were no Exploding closets around.

Normally, birds would be
singing and small animals would be scampering about.

---Compared to what?

The only sounds
now were the wind blowing and their own footsteps.

---With the wind in their hair, and a spring in their step.

Suddenly, a familiar
laugh rang out behind them. "Gyahahaha! You're right where I want you!"
Yuffie and Edgar turned around to see a cybernetic Heidegger.

---"There's a Cybernetic Heidegger behind me, so I guess I'll turn around to get a good look at it."

"You're
supposed to be dead!"

---Because I say so.

shouted Yuffie as she pulled out her Conformer.

---Sounds like a newspaper. "THE MIDGAR CONFORMER"?


She then attempted to slash Heidegger, but missed.

---Yup. I guess so.

"Your puny plastic
toys won't hurt me, little girl!"

---Except maybe the transformers.

he laughed as his right hand turned
into a laser cannon

---"Hahahaha! Look at my hand now! It's so funny looking!"

and his left hand turned into a chainsaw.

---And his face turned into a hockey mask.

"Edgar!"
yelled Yuffie as she dodged Heidegger's laser blasts "Use the red
Materia!

---Which one? There's only about thirty of them.

I can't hold him off any longer!"

---When was she holding him off?

Edgar held the red orb

---Distributors of Myst and Riven!

to
the sky. Suddenly a huge turquoise sea serpent appeared.

---HEY! Just dropped in to say HI! Well, gotta go!

It then
shrieked and a tidal wave rose up and struck Heidegger down.

---What a voice!!! The skill to yell and have water spontaneously appear!

When it
dissappeared, Heidegger just stood there, his circuits scrambled.

---When WHAT dissssssssssappeared? Floating article there.

"YoU
hAvEn'T sEeN tHe LaSt Of Me!"

---I'lL bE bAcK wHeN I CaN tYpE rIgHt!!

he said in a distorted voice.

---We noticed.

He then
vanished in burst of electricity. "Let's get out of here!" said Yuffie.
Then she and Edgar headed for home...


---I guess he wasn't feeling very human.


Rufus stared out the window of Cloud and Tifa's living room.

---Look! I can see my house!

He had
reconciled with them both and had told them what had happened.

---Well, what DID happen?

As he
turned around, he heard a commotion from outside. Upon coming out,
Rufus gasped at what he saw.


---Thier garbage cans just exploded!


It was a mutated Hojo.

---There's one in every family.

He now had grayish
black skin, six arms, and glowing red eyes.

---Really needs to cut down on the coffee.

His lower half was now that
of a spider. "You have it, yesss...?" hissed Hojo.


---"What? The bottom half of a spider?"

"Have what?" asked Rufus.
"The Black Materia.

---"It'sss materia, and It'sss black. Can't misss it.

Master reward me good if I bring it to him"

---I get a cookie.

A
large pair of fangs then came out of Hojo's mouth as he charged.

---Wait! Those are my favorite fangs!

He then
grabbed Rufus, retracted his fangs, and licked him with a long slimy
toungue.

---Awwww. How cute.

"Let me go!" yelled Rufus as he attempted to struggle free.
He finally managed to rip off one of Hojo's arms.

---GYUH!!! That will take a bit of glue to get back on.

Hojo dropped Rufus
and shrieked in pain before trotting off.

---Why not "pranced"?

"You all right?" asked Cloud
as he walked up to Rufus.
"I'm okay,

---But I really need to wash my face.

but I wonder how Hojo turned into such a hideous creature..."
he replied as he stared at the severed, rotting arm...


---Bacteria just clings to his body huh?



Later that night, Yuffie made a phone call.

---THE END.

"Really?

---I made a phone call?

That's great!
I'll be there as soon as I can. Bye!"
"What happened?" asked Edgar.
"I found Mom..."

---She's in the parking lot of the local Toys R us!

Smiled Yuffie.


Oooh. Racy.. Vince doin' it! I try not to think about that _too_ much.. o_o;


---That's nice. Just keep it too yourself, because we don't want to know your dreams.

Scary pic I drew, no? I think the Heidegger scene would have been even scarier....... ^_~;;


---Would have been scarier with WHAT?

---Well. I guess the world is now safe. And 500 years later, it will still be safe. (I Just had to dis the game's ending.)
