Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Don't worry, I can carry both of us back," Sephiroth calmly stated. He smiled warmly as he looked out over the city. "Even though I only have one wing, it's still very strong."

Blaze stood up from his chair, not looking at the cup of tea Cid had placed before him. He began to take a step, only to be stopped by a hand being clasped on his shoulder from behind.

"Sit your a** down and drink your goddamn TEA!" Cid shouted. With a strong pull, he literally threw the red-haired ex-SOLDIER into his chair.

The chair fell over, causing Blaze to hit the back of his head on the ground. The force from the blow; the momentum and inertia, made the former experiment black out.

"I guess I overdid it..." the pilot remarked.

((Heh, Cid always was the funniest guy in FF7))

Sephiroth could see the 7th Heaven Bar up ahead. "We're almost there."

Frost looked at Cid, a venomous glint in her eyes. "You think!?"

Sephiroth held the nervous woman tightly, comfortingly. "Don't worry. They're not blaming you for anything." As he looked into the bar, he noticed the unconscious form of Blaze. He chuckled, amused by the sight. "Either Cid's tea really did the trick for him, or Cid himself knocked Blaze out."

Frost continued to advance on Cid as he backed away. "If I were you, I'd run. Unless you'd like to be frozen by a Blizzaga spell."

The man backed up into a wall, looking about him in a panic, before his eyes fell on Bella, Sephiroth, Cloud and Tifa. "Uh... any of you care to help?"

Sephiroth and Cloud looked at Cid, their eyes closed. "Don't look at me, you brought this on yourself," they said in unison. Their eyes quickly snapped open, and they looked at each other, mildly surprised.

"Hey come on now! I didn't know he was gonna be weak enough to be knocked out just from hitting his head on the floor. We've all taken worse than that, and we didn't black out!" Cid protested.

Sephiroth merely shook his head. "Poor choice of words Cid, calling Blaze weak. Especially when you have his girlfriend threatening to freeze you."

"Or... we could watch what happens when you're hit directly by a Mega Flare," Frost responded. She smiled maliciously, her eyes glinting dangerously.

"You wouldn't... you'd destroy this entire bar, the block, and do calamitous damage to Edge!" Cid exclaimed.

"Then I guess she and Bella will just work together to harm you with magic as they originally planned. Have fun..." the silver-maned man remarked.

"Whoa wait, wait, wait!" Cid shouted.

Sephiroth looked over to the unconscious form of Blaze, smirking. He placed a green materia to the hilt of his Masamune. "Well then... time to wake him up." With a motion of his left hand through his bright silver hair, a ring of light surrounded Blaze's form.

The Life spell instantly did the trick; the scarlet-locked man sprang to his feet. "What'd I miss?"
