Shatter Heart » Crisis Core » Game Script Ch 5
???: Tell me what happened. Zack: Mom? I...I want to help out a friend. But, I don't know how I can do it... ???: Hell-llooo! Zack: Mom? [Zack wakes up] ???: Hell-looo! Horray! Zack: ...heaven? ???: Not quite. Church in the slums. Zack: ...An angel? Aerith: No. I'm Aerith! You fell from the sky. Scared me. Zack: So you saved me, huh? Aerith: Not really... "Hell-llooo!" That's all I did. Zack: Thank you so much, Aerith. I'm Zack. I have to repay you somehow. Aerith: Don't worry about it. Zack: No, no... Hey, how about one date? Aerith: What is that? Don't be silly! [Flowers in the middle of the church. Zack nearly steps on them] Aerith: Stop! Don't step on the flowers! Zack: Excuse me? Aerith: Normally, People are more careful with flowers. Zack: Well...I guess I'm not normal. Huh? You don't see a lot of flowers in Midgar. They're like luxury items around here. Aerith: They only grow here. Although I planted some outside my house too. Zack: If I were you, I'd sell them. Midgar's full of flowers, your wallet's full of money! Aerith: Midgar, full of flowers...wallet, full of money. Never thought of it that way... [Zack gets ready to leave] Zack: So, are you always here? Aerith: Yeah. Hey, so where are you going? Zack: Hmm, I'm not really sure... Aerith: I'll take you there, okay? Zack: ...Where? Aerith: Hmm, I'm not really sure... Zack: you just want to spend more time with me, right? Aerith: Yeah. Zack: Whoa! Are you...Did you...? [outside the church] Zack: This must be under the plate. Sector 5...this is the slums. Aerith: Yeah. If you walk a little, you'll be in the central slums. There's lots of people, and you can go above the plate from there, too. So I'll walk you over there. Zack: If I can get out onto the streets, I guess I can figure things out from there. Okay, lead the way. [They walk toward town] Aerith:AAahh! Monsters! [Hedgehod pies appear] Zack: Ah, here we go. Aerith: Zack, let's run! Zack: Don't sweat it! I'll protect you. I'll handle it. Aerith: You can? Zack: Just stand back, so you don't get hurt. [Zack kills the monsters!] Aerith: I feel so safe with you, Zack. Zack: Is that right? Aerith: Yeah. You can beat up monsters. You're so strong. Zack: Strong, huh... Aerith: Is something wrong? Zack: No. It's nothing. Anyway, those things weren't tough at all! So, did I look cool? A little? Aerith: Hmm... Zack: "Hmm..."? Aerith: Beats me. Zack: Aerith, in these types of situations, you should be more... Aerith: Hey, Zack. Let's go, okay? Zack: Uh, hell-lloo? [they walk to another area] Zack: So the central slums are this way? Aerith: Yeah. Zack: Hmm... Aerith: What is it? Zack: I guess the slums are built just like any other city. Aerith: Of course. Many people have lived here for a long time. Inside the gate there, there's a marketplace. It's fun because there are so many stores. You can go above the plate from there, too. Zack: It's kinda stuffy down here. Aerith: Really? It's always like this, though. Zack: I know what it is. You can't see the sky. Aerith: Who wants to see the sky? I don't, that's for sure. Zack: Wouldn't you normally miss seeing the sky if you lived under a plate all year round? Aerith: I guess I'm not normal. Zack: You want to talk about it? Aerith: The sky frightens me. I feel like it's sucking me in... Weird, huh? Zack: Normal is overrated. Aerith: Think...so? Zack: I have an idea! One day, I'll take you to see a beautiful sky, the real sky. It's not frigtening at all. I know you're gonna love it. [The Central Area] Zack: Hmm...Looks like an interesting place. Aerith: Maybe I shoud take a look around? [A boy runs by] Boy: Whoaaa! Watch out! Zack: Hm? Oh, sorry... Boy: Be more careful! Aerith: Hey, Zack? You didn't just... lost something, did you? Like any of your belongings? Zack: Did I lose something? I don't think so... Huh!? Aaaaagh! My wallet! Aerith: It's gone? Zack: Was it that kid? I'm gonna hunt him down! Aerith: Zack, wait. I'm sorry, but I know that boy. Zack: You know him? Aerith: There has to be some reason. He would usually never do something like this. Zack: Whatever the reason, stealing is wrong. I'm gonna find him, and... Aerith: Let's ask him why he did it. I'll bring him here. Zack: Hey, Aerith! She's gone... I'll have to look for him, too! [they go and look for him, splitting up. Zack looks at an entrance/exit area and sees a man] Zack: Hey, you there! Did you see a kid come running this way? Man: A kid? Can't say I have. The path leads above the plate. Children would never come this way. Zack: Damn... Man: Looking for someone? Zack: Yeah. Man: And you lost him. Zack: Yeah! Man: was your wallet stolen or something? Zack: How did you know? Man: If you want to catch someone here, you'll need some assistance. Zack: Assistance? Man: Can't find anyone alone is a this place. You should ask people on the streets for help. Zack: People on the streets, huh? Yeah, maybe I should ask around. I'm sure I can find him faster that way. [Zack runs around trying to find him, gets into many problems... and then... he find him!] Zack: There! I got you now! Aerith! He's running towards you! Boy: Uh-oh! Aerith: Hey, you. No more running. Zack: We got him! You sneaky little runt! Stealing from people is a-- Aerith: Zack... Zack: ...a very, very bad thing@ So tell me, why did you do it? Boy: It's none of your business. Zack: When you stole my wallet, you made it my business! Aerith: You promised me a long time ago that you would never steal again. Are you in some kind of trouble? Boy: ... Zack: If you're in trouble, just say so. Now you've got Aerith all worried. Boy: My own wallet was eaten by a monster. But I have to buy medicine, and get home quickly. Zack: Medicine? I'll get your wallet back from the monster. Boy: R-really? Aerith: Leave it to me! But its dangerous. Zack: No worries! Monsters in this area are no match for me! Besides, if I don't do this, he's gonna have to steal again, right? Aerith: Then I'll help, too. Zack: No, it's okay, Aerith--really. I'll take care of it. You can stay here and keep that kid out of trouble. Boy: The monster should still be on the street that goes to the park. Here's your wallet back... Get whatever you need before you go. [zack goes through a door] Zack: Umm...the park is...this way. Man: Hey, you there! Get back behind the gate right now! Zack: Hm? Man: Legions of monsters have appeared at the park! Zack: The park? Okay, that's gotta be it. Man: What do you mean, "okay"!? Everyone is evacuating! Zack: I'm sorry, but... Those guys owe me some money and I have to go collect. Man: What!? You're talking nonsense! Zack: It's all right, don't worry about me. You, on the other hand, should get back behind the gate. [Zack finds the monsters, battles] Zack: Aha! I found the kid's wallet! The inside's still intact...right? Whoa! That's a whole lot more than what's in my wallet! [back at center of town] Boy: You really got it back! Eww...it's all slimy! Zack: Quit complaining! you should be glad just to have it back! Aerith: Zack, were you hurt? Zack: Not a scratch! No problem whatsoever. Now, to deal with this brat... Get ready for the longest lecture of your life! ...is what I'd like to say, but you can go. You're in a hurry, right? Boy: Thanks, mister. Zack: Next time you're in trouble, don't steal! Come talk to me first. Boy: Hmm...I appreciate the offer, but I think I'll pass. I thought you looked pretty rich, but your wallet told me another story. Zack: Don't mock me, Junior! I'm gonna be a wealthy man soon. Aerith and I are gonna sell flowers! Aerith: Huh? Zack: We call it Operation: Midgar Full of Flowers, Wallet Full of Money! Aerith: That's right! Midgar Full of flowers, Wallet full of money! Boy: aerith, are you seriously doing this? Aerith: Yes...I'm gonna try, anyway. So, no stealing! Come talk to me if you're in trouble, okay? Boy: All right, I'll come talk to you. Well, I really have to hurry. Thanks, Aerith, mister. You should be more careful on the street, unless you want your wallet taken again! Zack: Obnoxious ltitle brat! Get lost already! [boy runs] Aerith: Thanks for helping that boy, Zack. Zack: Oh, it was nothing... Aerith: Hey, Zack? Were you really serious about selling the flowers? Zack: Of course! How can I turn my back now, after all I said? I have an idea! Let's make a wagon! Aerith: ...A wagon? Zack: Yeah! A flower wagon! If we have a wagon to put the flowers in, we can cart them all around Midgar selling them! Aerith: Oh yeah, that's true. That is a good idea! [at a shop] Clerk: Oh, hi, Aerith. Is that your boyfriend? Aerith: Hmm...I'm not sure yet. Clerk: Hey, aren't you... You are! The guy who was chasing that kid around! I heard about you from the neighborhood folks. I thought you were just some dumb outsider, but it turns out you're a pretty good guy! I'm sorry we misjudged you. This is just a small token of our appreciation. [gives items] I have to say though, Aerith... You're not gonna find a decent, honest, kindhearted guy like this very often. This one has my stamp of approval. I hope you're very happy together. Aerith: No, he's not my boyfriend. I just met him. But maaaybe... There's something there. Maybe. Oh, wait. Can I take a look inside this store? Zack: So, what? The whole reason you wanted to go out was to shop? Aerith: Then I won't. Zack: I'm just kidding! Go look as long as you like. Aerith: Thanks. Just for a little bit. I promise. [she looks at items] Zack: You really like this store, huh? Aerith: Yeah, it's fun just looking around. Zack: Hey, Aerith. Aerith: Mm-hmm? Zack: To show my gratitude for that "hell-lloo" that woke me up... I'll buy you something. Aerith: Oh, you don't have to. You're repaying me with one date, right? Zack: You said, "Don't be silly!" Aerith: Well... Zack: Then consider it a one-day anniversary gift of our friendship. Aerith: Are you sure? Zack: Positive. Aerith: Okay...this one. Zack: Alright. I'll go buy it. I'll be right back. [but later] Zack: How's that? Aerith: Did you put it on right? Will it stay on? Zack: It should be fine. Yeah, it looks great! [shows Aerith with a pretty, pink ribbon] Aerith: Thank you, Zack! I'll always wear it from now on! Hey, do you still have some time? Zack: I guess so, why? Aerith: Why don't we go to the park? Zack: Whoa, that kinda sounds like a date! Aerith: Uh-huh! [at the park, the two hang out] Aerith: So, ever meet any SOLDIER members? Zack: Maybe. Aerith: Do you think that they're happy? Zack: What do you mean? Aerith: Heroes to children, protectors of the peace. But, they're not normal. They get some kind of special surgery, don't they? Zack: So they say. Aerith: Normal is best. I think so, at least. Those SOLDIER people are kind of...weird. zack: They're...weird, huh? Aerith: And they're scary. They fight, and they love it. Zack: Actually, I'm with SOLDIER. Aerith: I'm sorry...[long pause of silence] So pretty... Zack: [Points to face] The face? Aerith: The eyes! Zack: You like them? Then take a closer look. [approaches Aerith] Eyes infused with Mako energy. A SOLDIER trademark. [puts face right up to Aerith's, she gets embarrassed] Aerith: Oh, you! [pushes him] Zack: Color of the sky, right? Aerith: Mm-hmm...but not scary at all! Zack: I'll admit it, things haven't been normal at all lately. What about you, Aerith? How's your life going? Aerith: I was thinking it would be a normal day, but then suddenly... Some guy fell out of the sky. Zack: That's not all that bad. Aerith: Mm-hmm. [Zack's cellphone rings] Lazard on Phone: Zack, return to the Shinra building now. Genesis has attacked us. Zack: On my way. [end of phone call] Zack: I'm sorry, but duty calls. Aerith: Well, I guess I should get going then. Will I...see you again? Zack: Of course! Aerith: I hope that your friend's okay, Zack. Zack: Huh? Aerith: You talk in your sleep. Zack: Yeah, it'll be fine. I know that now. [Zack heads back towards the Shinra building. ] Zack: The Shinra building! Damn you, Genesis! What's the matter with you?! I'll stop you once and for all! [Zack runs into lots of enemies and defeats them all. After he does so, he continues on to the Shinra building, where... Angeal decends from the sky] Angeal: I need your help. Zack: Do you? Honestly, what are you thinking, Angeal? Angeal: I'm not really sure myself. At times I feel as if my mind is mired in fog. But Zack, no matter what happens, I have to protect my honor. As long as I hold the Buster Sword. Zack, join me in battle. Our enemy is all that creates suffering. Zack: All right...I'll help you. [Angeal appears behind Zack and carries him in the sky] Angeal: I'll carry you there. Zack: No, wait! I... Angeal: Flying feels pretty good... [Angeal takes him somewhere. Shows a scene of Sephiroth fighting the Genesis copies inside the building. Angeal takes Zack into this said area with Sephiroth] Zack: Sorry to keep you waiting. Sephiroth: You're late. Angeal: Sephiroth, have you lost weight? Sephiroth: Humph. Angeal: On to business. It is safe to assume that Hollander has ordered Genesis to eliminate Hojo. Zack: Hojo, the director of the Science Department? Angeal: Yes. He believes Hojo robbed him of his rightful position. Zack: Then they'll be targeting the Science Department floor upstairs. Sephiroth: Forget about Hojo. Angeal: You're in your usual mood, I see. Sephiroth, take the floors below, I'll handle things outside. Zack, you go up, Hojo will be your responsibility. Zack: Understood! [runs off] Right now, I have no idea what Angeal is up to, or what he's thinking. But we're fighting side by side again, and that's good enough for me. All right, the Sciece Department is down this way. [Zack goes and finds Hojo] Zack: Ah, you're safe. Hojo: Shh! Please, be more quiet... Zack: This building is under attack by the Genesis army. They may be after you, Professor Hojo. Hojo: And you're my protection? Zack: In any case, we have to evacuate. Will you come with me? Hojo: Heh heh heh... Degrading monsters are nothing to fear. Zack: Are you talking about Genesis...? Hojo: Indeed. A memento from an unenlightened era, when man could deam any unclassified life for an Ancient. Zack: Unclassified life form? Hojo: Jenova, the calamity that fell from the sky. Zack: Uh... Hojo: Your ignorance is of no consequence. SOLDIER's duty is not to think--it is to protect men who think for them, like me. It appears you're not keeping very busy. Zack: I wouldn't say that, but... Hojo: Did you not say I may have unwanted company? Are you prepared to defend this brilliant mind with your life? Zack: Well... Of course I'm prepared! "Come and get it" is what I say! I'll show them the power of a next-generation SOLDIER 1st Class! Hojo: Heh heh heh... Most encouraging. I won't abide any losses to some second-rate scientist's creation. Hm...? [black wings fall from the sky] Hojo: Well, look who's here! Hollander sent you, correct? You think that if you obey Hollander, he'll stop your body from degrading, is that it? Pitiful...just pitiful, I say. Zack: Genesis. Hojo: A second-rate hack like Hollander couldn't cure a cold! Angeal: [walks in] Genesis, that's enough! Hojo: Ah, what do we have here? Genesis: My friend, the fates are cruel There are no dreams, no honor remains The arrow has left the bow of the goddess Hojo: The entire cast of Hollander's freak show! Zack: Shut up, you! Genesis: "LOVELESS" Act IV. Hojo: Where the two friends challenge each other to a duel. An ancient epic. I read it thinking it might aid my research, but... pure drivel. Angeal: How does the duel end? Hojo: Unknown. The last act is missing, and yet to be discovered. Genesis: There are various theories. The mysterious gift of the goddess... What is the meaning behind it? For us, at least. [Genesis blasts a hole in the wall and makes his way out of the building] Zack: Hold it, Genesis! [shows Genesis floating down from the sky] Genesis: My soul corrupted by vengeance Hath endured torment, to find the end of the journey in my own salvation and your eternal slumber Zack: He's summoning again! Angeal: Zack, I leave this to you. You can do this, trust me. Zack: Don't leave me here! Stop! come back! [ring ring, phone rings!] Zack: Aerith? Listen, an I call you back later? I have some company. [neo bahamut decends] Zack: "Don't keep your guests waiting," she says... [Zack beats up Neo Bahamut!] Zack: Where is everybody...? [chapter end!] |
