13 Countdown of the last 2 hours

Clayton knew there was nothing he could since Cloud's situation was unknown for the moment. He might as well keep an on his team. And he needed to check with Henry if there was any way he could help.

"Hey, Henry. Now that Cloud out of commission for the moment. How can I help the team?

"I'm glad that you ask. You can be one the other character for the time being until we figure what is going on with Cloud." Clayton couldn't believe that he could be another member besides Cloud. Now it was time to experience the power of Barrett. Clayton wanted to know what it felt like to have a gun for a hand. He knew there was a catch, but he needed to try it out. And he wanted to do it now.

"Okay. Show me what to do." Clayton got ready for the fire.

After Clayton became Barrett, he controlled the gun hand very well. He saw that he had more prowess and that it was hard to get hold of him. After several hours of training, he was comfortable with his new hand. Now he was ready to take command and find out where that weapon was heading. The team would make sure to check on Tifa and Cloud when they got the chance. So Barrett and they were back on the airship and heading to the next destination. The team was feeling down due to Cloud. But Barrett tried his best to cheer them up. Barrett wasn't much-cheering people up, but he knew that when his daughter was sad, he knew how to lift her spirits.

"You guys want to see something cool?"

"Let's check it out, Barrett."

Then they headed to the hangar of the airship. And they saw thousands of guns in a rack. And those guns were pointed to the sky. Since Baterra was a gun enthusiast, he thought it was a monument to his love of guns. The team's spirit was lifted, and now they were ready to fight this fight. The Barrett remembered that Cait Sith was a spy. So he could find out what Shrina was up to.

"So Cait Sith with you being a spy and all. Can you find out where Shrina is heading to next?" Cait Sith listening in on his moggle suit and heard some talking going on. So he turned up the volume so everyone could hear. The conversation was between a couple of Rufus and his henchman for hire.

"Now we're faced with some issues." Rufus is applying to that one, they didn't destroy the weapon, and second, they couldn't kill Sephiroth, and third, the planet is sky hasn't been taken care of either.

"Don't worry about the first problem. We are on our way to look for some Huge Material. That should take of that problem." The henchman laughed. This material was from a special type of material found from the compression process in Mako reactors. Rufus shook his head from one side, thinking now that they would efficiently use this material.

"I'm not worried about that, with that being said. We need to take care of the second problem. And we need to do it before Sephiroth can fight. And we also need to do it before he kills us all." This sounded to everyone but Barrett that Rufus wasn't doing for the people. He was doing it for himself. He could care less about the planet or its people. As long he got the praise, it was good enough. So the team knew what they needed to do. They needed to get that material before Rufus, and his men got to it. So their next destination is to look for where this material would be located. But there listen in on more of the conversation, so they find the location.

"We already collect it from Nibelheim. The next two spots are Corel and Ft. Condor. We have our men waiting at Corel. Just give us the ok, and we can look for it." The team was behind. Now they had to find a way to get the material they have already, but until they could get their hands on it. They were heading to Corel. So the pilot heading to Corel. Barrett remembers Corel. It was the entrance to reach the Gold Saucer. And his other friend with the gun for a hand is from here too. This is his hometown, and he adamant about protecting it. Even though the team was heading to his hometown, he elected Cid to be the leader. Clayton thought he would be able to be Barrett for a little longer; this must be how the game does things. He didn't really care for Cid too much, but you got to go along with things. No matter if you don't like them very much. So Cid heads down the railroad tracks. They needed to find the Corel Reactor that is where the material is hidden. They reach where the material, but then a train pulled out. On the train was the material. So they had to run after the train to get the material. And they had to hurry fast because Shrina was right on their trail. As Cid and they were catching up with the train. Shrina had control of the train containing the material. So they jumped on the train and fought the soldiers over the train. They finally had the material. They got the train to stop safely, and they had the Hugh material in their possession. Now the last to do was head to Ft. Condor and get other material before Shrina. Cid and the team reach Ft. Condor, and they head in. They go and talk to the older man.

"Man, am I glad you came. You better get up there. Shrina wants to kill the Condor that is protecting the reactor so they can steal the material." Shrina always wanting to destroy something that doesn't belong to them. So the team head up to where the condor. The condor is a bird. And right now, he is guarding the reactor against Shrina. Soon the team arrived to see the condor about to be attacked. So the team took out their weapons. Then the Condor started his attack. The Condor started to take out the soldiers attacking him with his wings; then they took off. The team head up to help the Condor fight off the Shrina soldiers. As Clayton watched through Cid's eyes, he noticed that the Condor wasn't protecting a reactor. It was an egg. And the egg was hatching. The team was amazed at what was happening. Then the Condor that was protecting it fell off from the steep. The man who watched in the window didn't know what was happening either. So the team volunteers to see what was going on. It was a baby bird, and they watch as it flew away. The man from the window told them to report what they saw to the man downstairs.

"Thank you all so much for what you have done here. And here is a gift for our appreciation." The man handed the Huge Material. They were shocked. They thought the material was supposed to be in the reactor. But it had been with this man the whole time. We bet he knew that Shrina was up to no good.

"I knew what the Shrina was up to when they came to us wanting us to protect that reactor. They just wanted that material. So before after they had, I went in and took it. And have been holding on to all the while."

"Well, thanks for giving to us. Well, we need to get going, So thanks for everything." Then we found out from the old man that there was one more material to find. It was hidden up the military dock that Tifa and Barrett were kept at.

"The place is called Junon. Head there now because Shrina might be heading there as we speak." So we knew we needed to head to Junon, but it had been a minute since we last saw Cloud. We might want to head there first to see how he was doing plus Tifa. When we arrived, we find that Tifa is still right next to Cloud, where we last saw her. We check with the nurse and how Cloud's prognosis is doing.

"As you can see, she is still in the place. And Cloud's condition hasn't changed. We're worried if she keeps this up. She is going to be sick herself. Try talking to her." So Cid walked over to see how she was doing.

" Oh, hey. As you can see, he's the same way. He says things to me that I can't understand. I don't know what to do." Then after Tifa finish telling them how things were the floor starts to shake. The team runs outside to see what was going on. When the team left to check the situation. Cloud starts muttering something to Tifa.

"There coming! There coming!"

"Whose coming? Cloud? Whose coming? I don't know what your saying." He just kept saying the same thing over. Then Cid comes in and tells Tifa what all the commotion was outside.

"It's Weapon!"
