[Cloud was feeling a bit torn considering everything that was going on. He wanted to help welcome the new heroes has he had last time, but at the same time he wanted to help with the preparations for the upcoming invasion. He was assured the flights would be running frequently enough that he wouldn't be gone for too long, but he was too busy weighing himself down with feelings of responsibility to make a decision.
As he usually did when he couldn't figure out his path, Cloud had gone to visit the crystal forms of Zack and Angeal. They couldn't answer him, but it made him feel better to do so.
Over his shoulder he heard the sounds of a hero waking from crystal slumber and he was both happy and sad that someone had come back, even if they had picked a poor time to do it. He turned to see who it was and his eyes widened as he saw the familiar face emerging from her own nearby statue.]
