Cloud took Hiro off the pedistal and lay him on the floor below it.
Every one gathered around in a wide circle,and one by one they came up.
"He was very brave."Cid said sniffing.
Vincent walked up next."There won't be any one like him."
Yuffie looked at Hiro and cried."He was a good guy."
Jean kneeled down next to Hiro."We'll let him be buried here.He grew to love this place."Then she started to cry.
Leo came up and comforted her."He's in a better place."He lead Jean back into the circle.
"Easy for you to say."Lemina sobbed."Bye Hiro.You were mega sweet."
Red XIII walked up with Ruby on his back."I will take care of his body.It will be buried among our honoured dead in Cosmo Canyon."
Ruby looked ."I will help you.Where Hiro is.I am."and they both walked back into the circle.
Cait just hung his head."Brave kid."
Barret wiped his eye."Yup."
Aeris came up to Hiro."You saved my life.Thank you."
Ronfar looked."The predection came true.He went out looking for something,Aeris,and he lost something dear to him.His life."
Tifa ran up to Hiro and laid her head on his chest crying."You can't die on me.I love you."She said outloud,then"We were to be married remember?"She whispered to him.
Barret went over to Tifa,coaxing her up."I know it hurts but you have to say goodbye."
"Goodbye?"A voice came from darkness."Why goodbye?"
They saw a figure there.
"Hiro's dead.We're saying goodbye to him."Barret said to the figure.
The figure gasped and rushed foward."Hiro!?Dead?"
Jean looked."Lucia!You found us!"
But Lucia wasn't listening to anyone.She rushed to Hiro's body with tears in her eyes."Hiro?"She said sitting next to him.
Cloud walked up to her."Sephiroth killed him.Hiro fought bravely untill the end.He saved her life."He indicated Aeris.
Lucia started to cry,then."I can't let this happen.I won't let him stay dead!He's to important to me! ALTHENA'S LOVE!"
Light started pouring over Hiro,but Hiro didn't wake up.
Lucia collapsed on Hiro's chest crying."Why didn't it work?Why aren't you alive?Why?!"
"He was infused with power from this planet.He's one of us now."Cloud said.
Lucia looked at him still laying in Hiro's chest."I won't give up on him!I can't! I love him!"
"Get up.So we can bury him."Cloud said crasly."He's not coming back."
"Leave her alone,Cloud.She's griving."Barret said.
Lucia sat there crying,when out of the corner of her eye she saw Hiro's chest rise and fall."He's......alive!"
Everyone gathered around and saw Lucia was right.Hiro was breathing.He was alive.
Hiro opened his eyes."What happened?Where am I?"He asked uncertanly.
"Shh."Tifa said knealing next to him."You had a rough day."
Hiro looked at her.His eyes no longer shined."Hi."Then turning to Lucia."Lucia?Who's that?"
Tifa stood up shocked.Hiro didn't remember her!
Cloud walked over to him."Must of been all that mako he was exposed to.He was literally someone else."
Jean understood."Hiro was acting wired for Hiro."
Hiro looked around confused."Where are we?This isn't Lunar."
Lucia smiled."Were going home soon."She said getting up.
Hiro got up and looked at the people who were now strangers."Hi."Then to his freinds."Let's go home."
They all nodded.
Lucia smiled and hugged Hiro.
Hiro smiled and hugged her back."I'm glad your here."
The group said goodbye to each other and exhanged gifts with thier friends.When Hiro looked at Tifa strangely,and walked over to her.
"You seem familar to me."Hiro said."Have we meet?"
Tifa just nodded."Oh you droped this."She handed him his boomerang.
Hiro took the boomerang,then."I want you to have it."He said handing it back to her."To remember me by."
Tifa smiled and said."Thank you."Then looking down,taking off her glove."I know it's not much but here."She handed it to him.
Hiro nodded and smiled."Thanks."Then he walked to Lucia,and put his arm around her.
"Let's get ready."Lucia said.
The Lunar group got into a small circle near Lucia.
Lucia chanted some words and they were gone.
Tifa stood there,with Hiro's boomerang in her hands."I'll never forget you,my love"
