[September 22nd] Zack and Cloud had escaped from the rough grasp of Sephiroth - mainly thanks to Cloud. They had escaped from the Mako Chambers, and now, Zack was awake and moving... Meanwhile, Cloud was dealing with a severe case of Mako poisoning. "I should find you some new clothes... Those Mako-Soaked clothes won't help..." Zack muttered to himself under his breath, before turning away from Cloud, who was laid limp on a bed. He searched everywhere, but some doors wouldn't open; so he had to look through a keyhole. When he looked through the keyhole of a door downstairs, he saw... Monsters... Dorky faces, to be exact. But huddled up in a corner, he saw you.

He tried banging open the door, but it didn't work. He knew what Angeal had said, "use brings around wear, tear, and rust", but it was to save someone from monsters, so he had to. He slammed the buster sword into the door, giving the Dorky faces (and you) a startle. "Get off of them!" He yelled, getting into a fighting stance before using AP materia to defeat all the enemies. He glanced at you, a soft expression forming on his face as he crouched down to your height. "Hey, you okay?" He asked calmly, reaching out a hand for you to take if you pleased. "Name's Zack, First class SOLDIER, mind you." He added, a playful smirk on his face.
