    Cloud: Sephiroth, what do you want?

    Cloud: There's no cure.

    Tifa Lockhart: Yeah, but that's not stopping Denzel is it? Don't run. Lets fight it together. We can help each other, I know we can. I guess that only works for real families.

  • Marlene Wallace: [Marlene picks up Cloud's bandage] It's just like Denzel. Is Cloud sick?

    Tifa Lockhart: [to self] Why didn't he say something?

    Marlene Wallace: Did he leave because he's sick?

    Tifa Lockhart: He just... wants to fight alone.

    Marlene Wallace: Fight?

    Tifa Lockhart: No. I don't think that he will...

  • Vincent Valentine: Cloud, you're sure this is about fighting?

Sure you might not answer the phone, but I don't see you throw it away either!

  • Cloud: [to Zack] I said I'd live both our lives... Easier to make that promise...

  • Aeris Gainsborough: Why can't you forgive yourself?

  • Cloud: Tifa, I'm not fit to help anyone. Not my family, not my friends, nobody.

  • Denzel: [about Vincent] Who's he?

    Tifa Lockhart: They're our friends.

  • Yazoo: Are we having fun yet?

    Reno: The time of my *life*!

  • Tifa Lockhart: Two years ago, think of the strength we all had when we fought that last battle. It's only been a couple of years, but already that feeling is gone. But Cloud, I think he's found it again.

    Barret Wallace: He's got ten minutes...

  • Yuffie Kisaragi: What? I don't get it! Why can't we help out?

    Cid Highwind: This is Man Talk.

    Yuffie Kisaragi: Sexist!

    [shouts]

    Yuffie Kisaragi: Sexiiiiist!

    Cait Sith: Lassie, shut your boos!

    Barret Wallace: Men don't get it either.

  • Cloud: Stay where you belong; in my memories!

    Sephiroth: I will... never be a memory!

  • Sephiroth: Tell me what you cherish most. Give me the pleasure of taking it away.

    Rude: Except, you're wrong.

    Reno: And wherever she is, we just don't know.

    Yazoo: What, the pions aren't trusted?

  • Aerith Gainsborough: I never blamed you. Not once. You came for me. That's all that matters.

  • Sephiroth: [amused] Oh! Where did you find *this* strength?

    Cloud: I'm not about to tell you.

    Reno: Oh, so you made it?

    Rude: If nothing else, it's... flashy.

    Reno: Oh, good...

    Rude: You love it, I know.

    Cloud: [aim's buster sword for Rude's neck]

    Rufus Shinra: Good... You fight like the SOLDIER you once claimed to be... You haven't lost your touch...

    Reno: [from outside] I'm still out here.

  • Kadaj: I'm glad you could make it.

    Cloud: I only came for the kids.

    Kadaj: See this man? He's our big brother. But alas... in our happy flock... he's what you'd call a "Black Sheep."

  • [to Valentine]

    Marlene Wallace: You don't have a phone?

  • Rufus Shinra: Say, Kadaj, I've got a question for you...

    Kadaj: And I've got an answer.

  • Kadaj: So what if I'm a puppet? Once upon a time... you were too.

  • Loz: Mother will know. When she gets here, she'll decide what's best. Now, where is Mother?

    Reno: [brushes himself off] Mother schmother... it's Jenova's friggin' head.

    Loz: Hey!

    Yazoo: I will not have you refer to Mother that way.

    Loz: You meanie!

    Rude: ...Our apologizes.

    Reno: You're ma's cool... what the hell am I saying?

  • Loz: [on the phone] I'm *not* crying.

  • Reno: [on seeing Bahamut] Hello.

    Tifa Lockhart: Cloud is Cloud.

  • Loz: Wanna play?

    [Tifa does not respond]

    Loz: I guess that's a no. Where's Mother?

    Tifa Lockhart: There's no one here!

    Loz: Fine then, play with me.

    Loz: [Tifa puts on a pair of black leather fighting gloves] This should be fun.

    [Cuts out a huge chunk of a building and sends it hurtling towards Cloud]

  • [a message on Cloud's cell phone]

    Barret Wallace: Yo, it's Barret! What up, foo?

  • Rufus Shinra: The Lifestream courses through our Planet back and forth across the borders of life and death. If that cycle is the very truth of life then history, too, will inevitably repeat itself. So go on - bring your Jenovas and your Sephiroths. It won't matter. We'll do as life dictates and stop you every single time.

    Kadaj: Please, sir, is that your excuse for going after Mother yourself? You don't seem all that sorry.

    Rufus Shinra: Sorry? Why, I've never had this much fun.

  • Kadaj: [Watching the havok Bahamut is wreaking] This is too fun, sir! Any requests for the next act?

    Kadaj: [Rufus stands up from his wheelchair, revealing a small black box he holds in his hand. Kadaj stares in shock] Mother?

    Rufus Shinra: [Smiles] A good son would have known.

    [runs to fight Bahamut]

  • Marlene Wallace: [narrating] There was one SOLDIER named Sephiroth, who was better than the rest. But when he found out about the terrible experiments that made him, he began to hate Shinra. And then, over time, he began to hate everything. Shinra, and the people against them. Sephiroth, who hated the planet so much that he wanted to make it go away. And the people who tried to stop him. There were a lot of battles. For every battle, there was more sadness. Someone I loved went back to the lifestream too. And then it came; the chosen day. In the end, the planet itself had to make the battle stop for good. The planet used the lifestream as a weapon and when it burst out of the earth, all the fighting, all the greed and sadness, everything was washed away. Sadness was the price to see it end. It's been two years since they told me that.
