Act V: A Plan Gone Terribly Wrong

Back at the Highwind, where Lucrecia had come back minutes after.

Cloud: Okay, so here's the plan. Cid, you'll go by yourself down the left path. Vincent, Lucrecia and Sephiroth, you'll all go down the right path and see how many senshi you can distract so Cid will have an easier time entering and escaping. Selene, you'll go with Vincent in case something happens. Me, Tifa, and Aeris will follow closely behind Cid to make sure everything goes well. Remember, Cid, when you escape with the materia, you call the Highwind with that radio.

Cid: Yeah! Yeah! I know! I know!

Cloud: Barret and Shera will stay aboard the Highwind, as well as Yuffie and Marlene. (looks at Yuffie ) Yuffie, thank you, for once, for stealing some materia.

Yuffie: No prob! It's dollar store brand, so the senshi won't benefit much from it.

Cid: Alrighty then! I got all the materia equipped.

Cloud: Okay, let's go!

When Cid was alone in the left path of the crater...

Cid: (with an acting voice ) Man, what am I gonna do?! I have soo much materia, and nowhere to hide it! I hoope the sailor senshi don't try to steal it! (thinks ) What a bunch of losers.

Soon, as planned, Sailor Mars appears.

Mars: If it isn't Mr. Highwind! I see materia! Mars Flame Sniper! (points the fire arrow at Cid's chest ) Walk over towards the entrance, NOW!

Cid: $hit...you'll pay for this!

Mars: Move!!

Cid: (thinking ) Sucker...

Cid walks into the sailor senshi hideout with Sailor Mars right behind him. Once inside, Sailor Mars turns her back to Cid to use her communicator. Cid pulls out the radar device and throws it up to the ceiling, where it attaches and camouflages itself. Sailor Mars turns around to face Cid again. At that same time, Sailors Venus and Jupiter walk in.

Mars: (holding a white bag ) Your friends on the other side have been discovered. One of them will be here shortly to see you again. Now, I'll be taking your materia.

Cid: Shoot! I'll get you for this!

Sailor Mars takes all the materia that Yuffie had stolen. She then puts it in the white bag.

Cid: (thinking ) The materia! It's in that bag!

In a split second, Cid swipes the bag from her hands and begins running for dear life.

Mars: He's getting away!! (begins running after him )

Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Venus run after him too.

Cid: Mama mia! Ten Piedad (Have Mercy) !! Ahhh! (pulls out radio and yells into it ) Shera, Barret, GIT ME THE @#$#$%^ OUTTA HERE!

Jupiter: Sparkling Wide Pressure!

Cid: (jumps out of the way ) Ay mama!!! That $hit's one powerful @#$%^&!!

Seconds later, the Highwind swoops down.

Shera: Cid! Catch on! (throws a rope ladder over )

Cid: Ahhhh!! (jumps onto the ladder )

He gets shot in the @$$ by one of Sailor Mars' Flame Snipers.

Cid: Yeowww!!! @#$%^%&^*!!! Next time I'll git' you!!

The Highwind flies off with Cid taunting the sailor senshi.

Meanwhile, Vincent, Lucrecia, Sephiroth and Selene were still going down the right path.

Selene: This cave sucks. (runs up next to Vincent ) I'm scared Vincent.

Vincent: Don't be. Rukre, me and Sephiros are here.

Selene: (thinking ) Yeah, that's the bad part. Lucrecia's here. (eyes Lucrecia evilly )

Sephiroth: Selene, you shouldn't be scared. If the sailor senshi come back, I'll whoop their @$$e$! Heh.

Selene: Yeah. (wraps her arms around Vincent's right arm ) There's nothing to be scared of as long as Vincent's here.

Lucrecia notices this and takes Vincent's claw hand in hers, not playing with his index finger nail this time.

Lucrecia: Vince, how much farther do we need to go? I'm getting a little impatient. (thinks ) And annoyed.

Vincent: (thinks ) God, Rukre's holding my hand. (out loud ) We're supposed to lure out as many sailor senshi as we can so Cid can be a success, remember? The further down we go, the better.

Lucrecia: Those damn sailor senshi. I hope we get them good this time. (lets go of claw hand ).

At that time, Sailor Mercury appears.

Sephiroth: Sailor Mercury! (draws Masamune )

Selene starts glowing.

Mercury: Good job Selene. Bring him here!

Vincent: What the hell?

Selene starts glowing brighter, and the glow overcomes Vincent. He is instantly put to sleep.

Lucrecia: Vince! (runs into glow, only to be thrown back with an amazing force )

Sephiroth: Mama! (rushes over and helps her up )

Soon afterwards, Selene, Vincent, and Sailor Mercury disappear.

Lucrecia: VINCENT!! (runs to spot where he disappeared ) Vincent!! (falls to her knees ) Vincent!!

In the sailor senshi hideout, Selene had just put the sleeping Vincent under her control using AVALANCHE's stolen, mastered "Manipulate" materia ( She had taken it out of the bag a day ago)She was now with Sailor Mercury in the main hall.

Mercury: I have to get some things ready. Take care of him for now, okay? Try not to let him go too.

Selene: Yes Miss Mercury. Thank you for helping my dream come true. Now, may I have permission to make him @#$% me?

Mercury: Do what you will, but just don't let him go okay?

Selene: Yes...

Selene walks back to her room, where she sees that Vincent has already woken up. She smiles and walks over to him.
Selene: Vincent.

Vincent: (in an estranged voice ) Yes ma'am.

Selene: I want you to love ME, not Lucrecia, understand?

Vincent: Yes ma'am.

Selene: I want you to prove it to me! Make love to me!

Vincent: Yes ma'am.

Selene: Now!

Vincent gets up and pushes Selene onto her bed. He then strips her of all her clothing. He then takes off all of his and climbs on top of her.

Selene: (thinking ) Heh, so sorry Lucrecia. But he's mine now and forever!

Vincent proceeds to make love to her.

All had gone well with Shera's plan. The radar had been planted the main hall of the senshi hideout and all their materia had been taken back successfully. But what they hadn't planned on, was Vincent being captured.

All are aboard the Highwind after returning from the crater. There was an immense silence that followed.

Cloud: What do we do now? (looks at Lucrecia, who is sitting and leaning forward with her head rested in her hands )

Barret: We can't make any more moves on the senshi. They know all our strategies, and they might hurt Vincent.

Tifa: (looks at Lucrecia ) Poor Lucrecia...

Yuffie: Well, look! We have to find a way to get him back!

Sephiroth: We have to! For mama's sake!

Cid: How the @#$%^&*& are we gonna do that?

They all turn and look at Shera.

Shera: (shaking her head ) I'm sorry, but even I don't have an answer for this one. I'm very sorry. (thinks ) I can't do it. I can't hurt her.

Cid looks at Lucrecia. He could already see tears forming in her eyes.

Cid: Dammit Shera! Don't you have ANY plan at all?

Shera: It's out of our range, Cid. We have the materia needed to put them out, but not without sacrificing Vincent. Lucrecia wouldn't want that, and besides, it's not being fair to Vincent. The only thing we can do is watch them over the radar.

Cid: But we can't just sit around here while they are on a @#$%^&* rampage! What about exchangin' the materia again?

Shera: I don't think the materia matters to them anymore. If you noticed, they planned on kidnapping Vincent before we planned to steal back the materia. It's like a sudden change of plan for them. We can only wait and see what happens. This is our only option.

Cid: Dammit!! (opens ice chest and pops open a cold one )

Shera: (thinking ) This isn't our only option, but I can't break my promise to her...
