Zack had lots of friends. For me, it was just Zack, though, so I did stupid things a lot. They didn't like me, but Zack took me along anyway, and nobody said no. He wasn't one of those people you could say no to.

They liked me more after this one time, though. I did a trick with knives. They thought it was cool.

...He had a lot of girlfriends, too. He kept trying to set me up, but they either wound up hitting on him instead, or I always blew it.

He started buying me lunch, too. I sent most of my money home to Mom, and the stuff they fed the cannon fodder wasn't too good... Zack made a lot of money as a Soldier, though. So he bought me lunch, and he sat by me every day, and when his other friends were around, he'd save a spot for me.

He snuck me into this party one time. A big expensive one. We were supposed to be keeping the homeless rabble and stuff out, but then he brought over drinks, and I didn't know they were spiked... that was the first time I ever got drunk. So next week, I waited until he was asleep, and I shaved his eyebrows.

He could've court martialled me for that, but instead he just told the waitress it was my birthday and made them sing at me.

I did get jumped by this group of cadets once... he had to penalise us all for fighting, but afterwards he took me out and bought me a camera. We went all over Midgar, taking pictures and screwing around...

He did find a girl he liked eventually. Aeris. I didn't meet her until years later, but she was nice... he didn't like talking about her, though, even though he obviously liked her a lot. Said it wasn't safe.

...We got shipped out to Wutai, for a bit. The Company thought a rebel faction was forming. We were in different units, though. I didn't see him until we got back.

...Zack was friends with Sephiroth. He could make friends with anyone... I'd always wanted to meet him, but Sephiroth didn't talk with just anyone... I'd mostly just catch glimpses.

He met me once, for a few seconds. He said I needed to relax my elbows and take my eye off the scope, or I'd hurt myself with the recoil. I got nervous and didn't say anything, and he'd already left.

I don't think he remembered me. Don't care if he did.

He called me Spike, usually. Almost no one but him knew my name was Cloud, since he'd always call me Spike. And he'd use me as an armrest, since I was even shorter back then.

...

I still miss him.

It's my fault he hated me. And it's my fault he's dead...

....Cloud....the man who attacked you....are you sure it was him?

Because he doesn't sound anything like the Zack you're describing to me...

Sephiroth found out what he was. He was never exactly stable, and he stayed up reading for four days...

He went mad. Then he burned down the whole village. He got to Mom first. I tried to go in for her, but there was too much fire, and she started burning and screaming... I passed out from all the smoke, and Zack had to drag me out. I woke up surrounded by bodies and wood... I couldn't tell who they were, since the ones that hadn't burned had been cut to bits. I think one of them was maybe one of Tifa's friends.

He went straight for Her, afterwards. Jenova. Zack had gone after him, but when I got to the reactor, he was lying on the floor with his limbs bent funny, and Tifa was bleeding everywhere, and his sword was on the ground...

...

-Stops talking and goes back to memories-

-This happens from 14:00 to 17:13 happens because I don't feel like typing all this out, except Cloud actually flung his ass off the catwalk into the core and his eyes weren't glowing for no reason (grrr, retcons), and nobody spoke like bad subtitle translations-

-Yes, he even remembered the part with Zack despite not being there. Odd-

...

After that... the authorities got there. Zangan came back for Tifa, but the Company found us... they covered it up and said we all died in an accident. It was easy for me. Everyone that knew me was dead. Zack was harder, since he had lots of friends... but since I just cost the Science Department the crown jewel of Soldier...

...Woke up tied to a gurney.

-Opens his mouth-

-Closes it-
