One Becomes the Other
Chapter Two: How It Began

by Shayna Harvey

It was a normal day, unlike any other in the new Sector 7, or so I thought.

A young girl hurried down the street toward the remodled Seventh Heaven, where she worked as a waitress. Rain pounded the concrete and roof top's, around her. That girl, was me, Onya Kassadeemya.

At last I came to the Seventh Heaven. I stepped through the door, relived to be out of the storm. Upon my entry, the young bartendress looked up and smiled.

"Evening Onya," she greeted me. "Good evening Mrs. Strife," I replied, as I hung my coat by the door. Tifa Strife, formally known as Tifa Lockheart, one of the AVALANCHE member's who helped defeat Sephiroth, during the Meteor War, and my role-modle. She was known for her great drink's and food. Even more so. she was known for her excelent hand-to-hand skill's. No one in Midgar dared cross her, excepted Reno.

Keeping the name the Turk's, Reno, Rude, and Elena, now work as a detective group under Reeve. Rude came to the bar often to see Tifa, Reno always came with him, and almost everyother night, alway's when I start my shift. Tifa often tease's me about it. I have taken a liking to the red-headed menice, though I'd never admit it. I also knew about Rude's crush on Tifa, which Reno, 'accedently' told me about, right in front of Rude, who made me swear to secrecy. Neither one seemed to notice Tifa, looking in our direction, and giggling after Reno said it, rather loudly I might add. It was amazing how differnt the two friend's are. Rude could drink the bar limit, and stay perfictly sober, while Reno passed out after his forth shot!

On this particular evening, after taking there seat's, Reno didn't order a drink. "Are you feeling okay, Reno?" I asked. He shook his head, "Would you get Tifa over here, please?" He asked, "Reeve and Cloud have some info, and Cloud want's the rest of AVALANCHE to hear this." "Tifa and Cloud made me a member, too!" I pouted, at being left out. A hint of a smile passed the Turk's lip's," Then you'll need to hear this, too."

I smiled and hurried over to Tifa, "Reno and Rude want to talk to us," I whispered. Tifa nodded, "Tell them they can stay till after we're close." "Kay," I turned to go and delever the message. "Oh, and Onya, tell them they'd better order now if they want anything, cause they won't get any servece after hour's," Tifa smiled. I giggled, and hurried back to the Turk's.

Later that night Tifa, Rude, Reno, and I were gathered around a table. Reno, still looking unusualy grim, was the first to speak, "We have some rather....unsettinling new's, late last night, a young man brought in a very distraunt looking girl, with a scar on her back and chest, she was soaking wet.....," Reno paused and glanced at Rude, "Elena's looking into it now," Reno continued, "the girl has been identified as Aeris Gainsbourgh."
