CUPID'S MISTAKE: Epilogue

Written by Crono

Later on in the day, Cloud and Tifa decided to have an evening Valentine�s Day Party.� The AVALANCHE gang had all gathered (minus Red XIII�he was still running from the skunk) along with their dates.� The music was loud and pumping.

Cloud:(to Tifa) Can you actually believe that I almost kissed that bastard Sephiroth?
Eww, man oh man, that was one of the worst experience since the Don Corneo thing.

Tifa: (shocked) What in the hell made you wanna kiss Sephiroth?

Cloud: (shrugs) I have no freakin� idea!� One minute, I�m fighting the bastard, then the next
minute.....whew.....it was loving mayhem.

Tifa: I think maybe cause it�s Valentine�s Day and love is in the air.� Maybe it was a cupid or something.....

Cloud: HA!� I think were all a little too old to believe in mythical creatures, Tifa.� A cupid?
I think NOT!!

Meanwhile, Yuffie pulled a chair next to Reeve.

Yuffie: Hi there Reeve!� Heard about what happened to your Cait Sith. Sorry....

Reeve: (smiles at Yuffie): It�s okay, I�ll build a new one before you know it!� But....to another subject...(looks evily at Yuffie). I heard about your �thing� for Vincent Valentine.

Yuffie: HELL NO!!� I have no idea what happened, one minute I was teasing the old vamp, and then, next minute, I�m all over him!� Talk about sick!

Reeve:(chuckling) It must be love! It�s in the air......or maybe it was a cupid.

Yuffie: Naw....Anyway, I thought that you were declaring Lara Croft as your Valentine this year.

Reeve: (scowls) Nope.� She�d never go for me.� Tomb Raider and Final Fantasy don�t mix.....
Besides, she killed my Cait Sith.� But I heard she�s dead.

Yuffie: Oh.....

Reeve: So, who is your Valentine this year?

Yuffie: (sigh) No one.� Everyone hates ditzy ol Yuffie Kisaragi.� I mean, did you honestly think that anyone would ask me to be theirs?

Reeve: Yeah! I would!

Yuffie: Your kidding.....

Reeve: Your not a ditz to me....would you be my Valentine, Yuffie?

Yuffie: (beaming) YES YES YES!

Yuffie gives Reeve a kiss on the cheek and the two go up to the dance floor to dance La Bouche�s Be MY Lover.

Meanwhile, Cid and Shera walk toward their seats.� Apparently, they had danced nonstop since they arrived at the party.

Cid: So how ya feeling, woman? Tired from all that �action� this morning?

Shera: I�m just a little thirsty.

Cid: (gets up) Ok, stay here while I get you some punch, okay?

As Cid leaves to the punch table, Barett passes by and takes note on the young brunette with a green dress.

Barett: Yo, how�s it goin there, baby!� Wanna dance?

Shera: --------?

Barett: Your awfully cute.� C�mon baby, let Big Barett be your Valentine! You know if I get you to be my Valentine, Cid will be the only one without a date so that means I could make fun of the foo�.

Shera:� --------?

Barett: Aww, don�t be shy.� Just let Big Barett Boy do the lovin� �kay, cutie? (Grabs Shera�s hand).

At that time, Cid had returned from the big trash can punch Cloud had set up with two cups of punch.� When he saw Barett, he immediately dumped all the punch over his head.

Cid: And what the hell do we think we�re doing here, Barett?

Barett: Hey, man, I saw her first!

Cid: (lights a cigarette) Hands off @#$#$, that�s my girlfriend, Shera.

Barett: Shera?...........She�s not cute anyway!

Sourgrapes Barett walks away from them and sees Vincent alone near the trash can punch.� He decides to pick on him. Barett pulls a chair next to him.

Barett: so, vampy, where�s the countess......

Vincent: .............

Barett: Your date, where is she, you @#$%!

Vincent: I don�t have one......

Barett: Huh?� Oh...so that means were both in the same boat...

Vincent slowly turned his head towards Barett.

Vincent: No, Barett, I will not be your Valentine.

Barett: @#$R% you man!� Want me to get you some blood, er , punch?

Vince: ..........@#$% you..........

Barett: OOOOOh, vampy speaks here......

At that time, �Open Arms� by Journey began to play.� The people who had dates began to dance.

Cloud: Love you Tifa.
Tifa: (lays head on his shoulder) I love you too.....

Reeve: I like you a lot, Yuffie......
Yuffie: I like you too! (Hugs him)

Cid: I love you woman..
Shera: (deeply kisses him)

At the time, the maid came out with a giant plate of Oreos and donuts.

Barett: Alwight, food!

Vincent:........cool.� I love Oreos.

The two were about to pig in when Cloud all of a sudden began to shake.

�Tifa: You okay, Cloud?

Cid: Hey say something, spiky head!

Cloud�s eyes were wide as if in a trance as he walked toward the food.� He passed Barett and picked up the tray of food.� Then, he began to head out the door.

Barett: Hey! Come back here!� Those shits are not all for you!

Tifa: Cloud, where the hell are you going?

She follows him outside and sees that he is no longer holding the tray of snacks and that he was back to normal.

Cloud: Huh?� Where am I?

The rest of the gang had now come outside.

Barett: @#$$%! Where are all the snacks? Huh?

Cloud: I...I don�t know, it�s as if someone were controlling me....

Yuffie: Maybe it was a cupid....

Everyone shot Yuffie an ugly glare.

Reeve: Only one person could be capable of this.....

Everyone: Uh oh.....

Meanwhile, somewhere in the crater, Sephiroth was lying down and enjoying his �stolen� snacks.

Sephiroth: Heh heh, good job, Cloud my boy!

He stuffs down the last of the Oreos.

Sephiroth: Damn, now I�m thirsty. (Snaps his fingers) Cloud...bring me the punch....the punch, Cloud now!

When Sephiroth recieves the punch, he drinks it up and chuckles.

Sephiroth: Ah.....it sure is hard work making other people work.� Hmm....(he thinks for a� moment).� I�m still hungry though......(snaps fingers) Cloud...more donuts.....bring me the donuts!
