Yuffie Kisaragi
- Vincent Valentine: Yuffie... what are you doing here?
- Yuffie Kisaragi: Me? I'm just helping out Reeve & his gang. I was poking around Niebleheim, & I found you looking all corpse-like in Shinra Manor.
- [brightly]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: So, I saved you!
- [pause]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: Imagine that: me saving the great
- [spins in place]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: Vincent Valentine! Do I get any thanks?
- [laughs]
- Vincent Valentine: [chuckles, but completely serious] Thanks, Yuffie.
- Yuffie Kisaragi: [pause; looking & sounding uncomfortable] No, no, whoa. I didn't mean for you to take me so seriously. Anyway, Reeve wanted us to contact him as soon as you woke up.
- [over loudspeaker; as WRO soldiers, & Yuffie, get ready]
- Cid Highwind: Listen up, cause I'm only gonna say this once. If any more of you are killed by those punks, I'll drag you back from Hell & kill you again! You really wanna piss off those S-O-Bs, then why not try staying alive!
- [brief pause]
- Cid Highwind: That's what this war's all about! If you live, everybody behind you lives. If you die, they die! You got that? Now go kick some Deepground-ass!
- Yuffie Kisaragi: [along with the other guys in the hanger] Yeah!
- Yuffie Kisaragi: I don't know what's going down, but it sounds big. I've been waiting a long time to get my hands on those Deepground punks. They've had their way long enough. Now it's time to give them a taste of pain a-la-Yuffie.
- [mimes boxing]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: Just give me 3 minutes with those guys. No, make it 2. Well maybe 3... or 4- Well it really depends on how many there are. But I think if there was 5 I could probably take them in 2- or 2 in 5, or 3 in 4...
- [Vincent wakes up lying on a bench; looks at the person sitting on the other bench, wearing a robe so you can't tell who it is]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: [waves] Morning.
- Vincent Valentine: Where... Who are you?
- Yuffie Kisaragi: [stands up] Well, I'm glad you asked.
- [standing in a 'heroic' pose]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: I am the champion of the earth and the sky. I am the conqueror of evil. The single white rose of Wutai.
- [pulls off her robe in one swift move, & he can now see it's-]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: Yuffie Kisaragi!
- [jumps onto the bench]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: Feast your eyes on-
- [loses her balance & falls backwards, knocking her head against a computer console]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: Ooowww! Ow!
- [continues to groan in pain]
- Vincent Valentine: [completely nonchalant] So, where are we?
- Yuffie Kisaragi: [slightly frustrated] Come on! Aren't you at least a little concerned?
- Vincent Valentine: [voice still neutral] Oh, Yuffie. It's been a while... How's you head?
- Yuffie Kisaragi: You-
- [sighs; now aggrivated]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: Could you at least *pretend* to be sympathetic?
- [Vincent starts to sit up; stops, clutching his chest, groans in pain]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: [leaps up; concerned] Aaahh! Hey! Take it easy. That was a big hole you had in your chest.
- Vincent Valentine: [sounds confused] A hole in my chest?
- Yuffie Kisaragi: Um-hm.
- [say following lines while semi-dancing around, spins a couple of times]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: I seriously thought you were a goner, but then the wound healed itself right up.
- [half to herself]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: You were always "different"; but
- [finishes brightly]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: I guess that's why you're still breathing.
- [Vincent entered the room where Yuffie is sitting on a computer desk and glancing at Shalua's lifeless body in a container]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: [unhappy] They... they say she won't wake up. She suffered too much trauma to her head. Unless there's some kind of a miracle, she... she's not...
- [pause]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: [angry] Vincent! You were there! Why couldn't you save her?
- Vincent Valentine: I'm sorry.
- Yuffie Kisaragi: [anger deflates completely] Uhh. No.
- [beat]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: I didn't mean to...
- [Shelke appeared at the scene]
- Shelke Rui: [glancing at Shalua] She was a fool.
- [Yuffie angrily gets up and slaps Shelke, though Shelke doesn't react to her face getting slapped]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: [upset] You have no right to call her that!
- [about to cry]
- Yuffie Kisaragi: You don't know...! You don't know what...!
- [Vincent backs Yuffie away from Shelke]
- Shelke Rui: Why...? Why would she do something so...?
- [extremely upset and almost about to cry, Yuffie walks away from the scene]
- Vincent Valentine: Before, when I asked Shalua what she was searching for, she answered "her reason to live."
- [beat]
- Vincent Valentine: It was you, Shelke... *You* were her reason to live.
- Shelke Rui: So? I don't understand... how someone could give her own life for that of another. Do you understand, Vincent Valentine?
- Vincent Valentine: Hm. I can't answer for your sister. But...
- Shelke Rui: But?
- Vincent Valentine: When a person has someone they care about that much, giving their life is sometimes the least they can do. And maybe that's what makes us human.
- Shelke Rui: Someone they care about...
- Vincent Valentine: Although, it seems like there are a lot of people around me who don't need a reason to risk their lives for that of another.
- Shelke Rui: And are you...
- [Shelke stumbles, almost falls to the floor; Vincent catches her and holds her shoulders]
