The Saga Begins.......

The Story of Final Fantasy VII begins with the Hero, Cloud in this case, is on a train to go to the City of Midgar. A somewhat hole of a city, which is under a huge plate that is sucking all of the mako energy out of the town and leaving it as a place for the slums. Then the train gets hi-jacked by the Rebel Group named AVALANCHE. So cloud helps this group, on the train for a small fee. He also helps them take out a reactor and learns that the reactors around the city of Midgar are sucking the life out of the planet. So he agrees to help them, and him being a former of the militia group SOLDIER, is a prime steal for Barrett and his companions. When they are through, all that cloud wants is his money, instead he gets an offer, that he cannot refuse. He thinks it will be an easy job, little does he know that his trek is only beginning.

The Seperation of Friends to make another

They then run into the Shinra on the second reactor that they blow up, and the president unleashes a robot-like creature on them. This boss, when he is destroyed blows up the bridge where Cloud is standing, which seperates Cloud from Tifa and Barrett. By this time Wedge, and the others are working hard to take out the reactor. Cloud, at this time fell quite a ways down the corridor. He lands in a flower bed, which breaks his fall. He is then awaken by the voice a a friendly girl. This, you find out very shortly, is the one you either bought a flower from in Midgar(or didn't depending on how you did it). Her name is Aeris and she is frighten by the Shinra, and wants Cloud to become her body guard. So, while you are doing this subquest with Cloud, Tifa and Barrett are back at sector 7 where Tifa owns the local bar. Cloud and Aeris escape the Shinra, because they are after Aeris for some reason, and go back to her house. After all this cloud is wondering how he is going to get back to sector 7 and get his money. After agreeing to become Aeris's body guard, he tries to return to tifa's bar. This seemed to be a bad idea because with Aeris be with Cloud, the Shinra was hot on there trail. When they finally get back to Avalanche, what they find is another mission, this time although....it is a rescue mission.

The Quest for Tifa, and.......a dress?????????

The group finds out that Tifa has been captured and taken to the Wall Market and is being kept hostage by Corneo. He chooses women to basically be his "love slaves", in his palace. Of course he is a member of the Shinra, and Tifa has to be rescued, no matter the cost. So, this is the fun part (basically it is kinda wierd), you have to dress up like a woman to get into the palace, because Corneo, does not allow men to enter his palace. This concept seems rather stupid, and kinda sick, but leave it to SquaresoftTM to keep are interests peaked!(so to speak) But nonetheless, Cloud becomes dressed up like a woman. And so him and Aeris go to the palace of Corneo and get in, and next along with Tifa get choosen to go up to Corneo's Room, to be choosen to spend the night with him(confusing yet?). Usually, unless you give Cloud the better accessories, He will choose Aeris or Tifa(you know....the real women)! Then whoever is choosen goes to his room, and whoever is not is thrown in a waiting room like place. Cloud is put in a room, full of other guys, which are chasing him around. Cloud then reveals to them his true identity and kills em' all. Then he Aeris and Tifa confront Corneo and question him about the Shinra, and Rufus(the VP). Regardless of what you say to him you are thrown into a dungeon, and have to fight your way back to the surface.
