"Get ready, Torensten, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie paused to consider his response, apologising for worrying her. She sniffed a little, rubbing under her nose and did her best to look confident. "Oh, I wasn't worried," she assured him. "Just, I'm, y'know, kiiiinda a hero. I mean, don't tell anyone, but I TOTALLY just helped save the world. It was in the future though but it really happened. So, y'know, a hero's work is never done! Can't just ride past a sad person when you're a hero," she beamed, obviously proud of her newfound status. Part of her wanted to stop and think up some new names to add to her usual list of titles she gave in these situations. 'Sephiroth Slayer'? Ohhh, that was a good one!
"Lost, huh? I mean, I wasn't gonna say nothin', but, yeah, you past peeps, not so hot on signage huh? I mean, I've been ridin' down this path for HOURS and I still ain't seen a sign pointin' nowhere!" Yuffie declared, looking up and down the path, having utterly forgotten her attempts to speak in 'past person lingo'. "And I don't recognise any of these forests or fields and, well, did I mention, I'm a total legendary hero who's travelled the world. I mean, I know I'm stuck in the past, but eugh! Surely, like, fields and stuff can't be that different?" she asked. She realised this probably wasn't the news that this strange person wanted to hear.
"Don't worry though! Even in unfamiliar lands, or travelling through the mists of time, the Great Ninja Yuffie is unphased!" she declared, dramatically posing with her hand in the air. "Plus, well, like, this is a road of some kind, right? I mean, you just follow it and it's gotta lead somewhere eventually," she pointed out. "I already found the chocobo stable, but, well, the Great Ninja Yuffie never asks for directions!" she announced. Perhaps she should start doing that, actually...
"Nah, sorry. I've seen some CRAZY things, but nobody else in a big cloak like yours. Say, where'd you get it from? It's kinda cool. I used to have a cloak that looked like a moogle, but I lost it ages ago. I should get another one. Nothing makes an entrance like having a cloak you can throw off dramatically!" she mimed the action for a moment, sweeping back an imaginary cape. And then she paused. This person seemed upset. Maybe now wasn't the time to discuss the merits of moogle cloaks.
"Hey, don't worry, just stick with the Yuffmeister and I'll find you somewhere safe. We just gotta keep following this path, like I said. Easy as pie, right?" she smiled cheerfully. "Nothing to worry about!" she added, hoping her optimism was, at least on this occasion, infectious. Besides, it wouldn't hurt having somebody else along. Travelling alone was always harder than it seemed, even if Yuffie wouldn't admit that to anyone around her very much. She kinda missed the old party too. Sure, they had a rocky start, but after a while, they had been her friends. More than that, her family. And now, she was just alone. So, yeah, having a travelling companion could work out.
"You mean the chocobo? It's a chocobo!" she answered, looking confused when he asked about the animal. "Do you, like, not HAVE chocobos in the past? No, wait, that doesn't make any sense, I got it from a stable here. Wow. Where are you from, guy? They have chocobos everywhere!" she declared. She paused again when he asked if she was a 'beast master'. "Beast master? Me? N-" she paused. She was about to say 'no', but, well, Beast Master sounded PRETTY cool. And she was totally the master of the chocobo, right? "I mean, yeah, of course! I'm a TOTAL Beast Master! Yuffie Kisaragi, Master of Beasts, at your serv- HEY!" At that moment, the chocobo, who had grown bored with Yuffie's prattle, bent down and plucked her shuriken clean off her back in its beak, and began to walk away with it. "Give that back! Right now!" She commanded, but the chocobo ignored her, walking away, its head held high. Too high for Yuffie to reach. "Give it baaaaack!" she said, this time her tone that of a whiny child, jumping in the air, arms flailing as she tried and failed to reach it.
Then she realised the strange red cloaked guy was still watching her and laughed a little. "Uh.... I mean...." she paused, and took on her best commanding tone. "Pick up my shuriken! Now, uh, walk over there a bit! And, um, look at that tree. Now, uh, scratch your butt!" she called out, 'commanding' the chocobo with enough of a delay that it was already doing whatever she was saying by the time she said it. She turned back to the Red Mage and smiled, with a slight laugh. "See, does whatever I say!" she said with as much faux confidence as she could muster.

"Get ready, Torensten, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
"IF YOU'RE BORED AND YOU KNOW IT SAY NOTHING!" Yuffie called out, pausing, to let the forest remain silent. "IF YOU'RE BORED AND YOU KNOW IT SAY NOTHING! IF YOU'RE BORED AND YOU KNOW AND YOU REALLY WANT TO SHOW IT, IF YOU'RE BORED AND YOU KNOW IT SAY NOTHING!" she sang to the empty, dead air, before sighing. C'mon. There had to be at least a monster or something around here to beat up, didn't there? But nope. More silent. More empty forest. More NOTHING. Ugh, this world was boring.
It was getting dark too. Was that how long she had been walking? At least, her initial reaction was that it was getting dark, because the tree up ahead was becoming coated in an inky blackness. Or so she thought at first, but in a moment, she realised it wasn't the natural darkness from a sun setting. No, the sun was still shining high in the air. It was different. It was crackling with a purple, disgusting mist and sparks of energy. It was strange. It was gross.
But more than anything, it was familiar.
"No..." Yuffie whispered to herself suddenly, eyes widening. She knew that darkness. That darkness was the reason she still slept with a light on. Even if she didn't admit it to the others. That darkness was the reason she lay awake at night. That darkness was the first time she had ever learned what real pain was...
Oh, she had thought she had known. Her Dad refusing to fight back, seeing her country fall into ruin, but she had just been a kid, having a tantrum. And then had come the fight back and it had all been fun and games. Moogle cloaks and silly names for herself and posing and quips. And okay, she still did all of that, but it hadn't all been fun. Because there was a before the darkness, and an after the darkness. Before Sonon, and after Sonon.
It was the first time the teenage ninja had truly lost somebody. But it wouldn't be the last. Sonon. Aerith. She had seen them both die. They had died and Yuffie had lived and she had been powerless to do anything about it. But she had helped destroy Sephiroth. She had helped fight him and stop him and kill him and she had felt Aerith's presence at the end. And that had brought, well, a sense of peace, even if she missed the flower girl every day. But Sonon? Sonon had died to save her. He had died like an idiot thinking she was just some dumb kid! But he'd died none the less. She had failed to save him. And she had failed to avenge him. The darkness had taken him, and it still haunted her to this day...
A figure appeared, his voice cold and familiar. Yuffie froze, her eyes wide with fear for a moment as she took a step back. "N-no, not you..." she began. The dark tendrils snaked around him where he stood, and it chilled her blood to see them, but slowly her fists clenched. Yes, she was afraid of that darkness. But there was something she felt more than fear.
She was angry at it.
Her shuriken flew to her hand, unfolding as she dropped into a fighting stance. "You're gonna regret showing your face here!" she screamed furiously. "I beat you once already, and I've grown HECK of a lot since then! This time, you ain't gonna get back up!" She ran at him, shuriken flying out in an arc directly towards his face. "FOR SONON!" she yelled at the top of her voice, all of her usual joking and teasing gone as she leapt at him in an agile attack...

"Get ready, Torensten, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
So far, Yuffie had established some things about where she had ended up. It did not seem to be Gaia. At least not her Gaia. Nobody had ever heard of the Great Ninja Yuffie, which she thought was absurd. Sure, okay, so people usually hadn't, but c'mon, she saved the entire world like yesterday. How long did it take to become a living legend? But more than that, nobody had heard of Wutai either. And nobody seemed to remember that a gigantic meteor had just nearly smushed the planet. Which meant only one thing.
Yuffie had gone back in time!
That had to be it, right? Way back in time to before Wutai was fully established, and well before the meteor. She wasn't sure what year Wutai had been established because history lessons were boring and she spent most of the time doodling moogles in her workbook even when she HAD bothered to show up for classes, but it had been around for at least a couple of centuries, right? So she was WAY back in time. It was the only explanation!
Which meant she had to be SUPER careful, otherwise, she might change the future, and never be born! Weren't you meant to like, never step on a butterfly if you went back in time? Or, uh, something. That's how it worked, right? To that end, she had rented a chocobo, working on the theory that if the chocobo trod on a butterfly, it was okay because it was from that time. Okay, yes, so the chocobo would be walking a way it hadn't before because of Yuffie but, well, critical thinking was never her strong point.
"Do-do-do-do do-do-do-do dooooo...." she sang to herself as the chocobo made its way down the path. Oddly, she felt surprisingly at peace, which was strange given everything she had been through in the last few days. There was a lot to be concerned about. Trapped in what was quite clearly the past? Problem. Her little run in with you-know-who? BIG problem. The fact that she had no idea if meteor was stopped? BIGGER problem. But somehow, also, being trapped in the middle of nowhere, where nobody knew you and you knew nobody, where there was no Wutai going to ruin or big evil Sephiroth to stop or people constantly telling her to actually study, well, it was kind of liberating.
Here, she could do whatever she wanted, and there were NO consequences!
....Which was pretty similar to how she lived her life anyway, but that was beside the point.
"Alright, ye-olde-times people! Get ready for... YUFFIE!" she announced, pointing dramatically into the air as she rode the chocobo. She wondered if it counted as stealing if she stole materia in the past and took it back to the future. Because then technically it was her's in the future, which means she was meant to steal it in the past, right? No, it meant it was her DUTY to steal it in the past, to protect the timeline! Yep, that was it! To save the future, Yuffie HAD to steal all the materia she came-
She snapped out of her incredibly delusional thoughts when she spotted a figure on the road. He was on his knees, and pretty upset. She paused for a moment, not quite sure how best to approach him. She could just ride past, but that wasn't really in Yuffie's nature. She might have been a thief, but she still didn't like to just completely ignore people. She stopped her chocobo and slid from the saddle. "Uh, hey, um, you... you okay there?" she asked, approaching him curiously. Wait. Crap. If she was stuck in the past, he might not understand her SUPER hip modern speak. "Uh, I mean, greetings... yonder.... traveller... how.... be... thou?" Crap. Why didn't she ever pay attention when she had to study all those stuffy old plays?

"Get ready, Torensten, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie let out a long groan as she lay on the grass, arms starfished out as she stared up at the passing clouds. She had never been drunk, despite one valiant attempt one night when the grown-ups (uh, other adults, because she was totally an adult too), had been having drinks one night and she had successfully snuck a glass of whiskey away from Cid when he wasn't looking. That night she had learned two valuable lessons. One, whiskey tasted horrible and adults were WEIRD for wanting to drink it. Two, stealing Cid's whiskey was a far worse crime than stealing his materia, apparently. It was the closest she had ever come to being impaled in her life, and plenty of people had actually tried to murder her in the past...
But she couldn't quite remember, well, anything. She remembered defeating Sephiroth. She remembered seeing the meteor still descending, the lifestream rising to fight it... For a moment, it looked like all was lost. It was so bad she hadn't even felt sick on the Highwind as it was tossed in every direction. Or, well, if she had, she hadn't had time to worry about it.
And then, well, nothing. Nothing until she was laying on the grass. Wherever she was.
She must have gotten drunk. She bet that after meteor stopped, they all celebrated, and drank loads, and they of COURSE let Yuffie drink because she had helped save the world (well, she'd basically done it single handed with a small assist, or at least, that was what she was gonna TELL everyone), and she'd gotten so drunk she'd woken up in a field with no memory. That's what happened when you drank, right? That's what TV had told her anyway.
Well, just laying there wasn't going to get anything done. Maybe that's what some scared loser would do, but SHE was the Great Ninja Yuffie, and just because she couldn't remember how she had gotten there or what had happened didn't mean that she was going to wallow in despair. So she sprang to her feet with her usual bundle of energy. Ha! If this was what a hangover was like, then adults were just being WUSSES. She felt fine. She wondered what the big deal was.
"Hey! Cloud!? Tifa!? Red!?" she called out, beginning to walk, to see if anybody was out there. "You guys out there?" she peered around, but there seemed to be nobody, except the field and trees. "Hey! If this is about the materia, I said I was sooooorry?" she called out, wondering if this was a prank they were playing on her. Ohhh, if it was, she was gonna get them back so hard! Nobody pranked YUFFIE KISARAGI! She was the master of pranks! Ohh, she'd get them back SO good! Like, maybe hide Cloud's hair gel! She'd see how cool Mr-Not-Interested was when his hair was all flat and boring! HA!
.....Okay, so her revenge prank needed some work. Give her a break! She was hungover for the first time in her life.
"Huh. So you guys just left me in a field? Wow. Not cool, guys!" she yelled, but still there was no response. "Well, joke's on you! I'm the great ninja Yuffie Kisaragi! You think I can't survive out here on my own!? I can handle anything!" She turned around a few times, and paused, scratching behind her head and laughing slightly. "Um, of course, if you wanted to help out, with, um, just like, a sign... for the right direction or anything? That'd be really cool?" she called out. "....Guys?"
No response.
"Ugh! Fine! I don't need you anyway! I got this!" she paused, and nodded to herself, looking towards the forest. "I got this!" she repeated, more to herself than anybody else, and began to walk.
***
"Boooooooooored!" she yelled at the sky as she trudged through the forest. "What's the point of a dumb forest anyway!? Ohh, look, trees! More trees! Hey, what's over there? Oh, lemme guess! Trees!" she complained out loud. "C'moooooon! I'm bored! And lost! And kinda hungry!" she called at the sky. The sky just stared back at her silently. She kicked at the dirt in frustration, which would have been effective had she not caught her foot on a tree root hidden under the ground and tripped. "Whoawhoawhoawhoa!" she called out, falling flat on her face into the dirt. She let out a groan. "Owwww..." she whined as she slowly got up with a sheepish smile on her face. "Okay, okay, you made your point!" she yelled at the forest in general and began to carry on walking.
She lasted three minutes before... "I'M SO BOOOOOOORED!"

Yuffie Kisaragi
"I know you're all dying' to talk to a babe like me!"
I. BASICS
FULL NAME:: Yuffie Kisaragi
NICKNAMES:: The Single White Rose of Wutai, The Treasure Princess, The Champion of the Earth and Sky, The Conqueror of Evil, Wutai's Greatest Warrior, The Great Ninja Yuffie, The Scourge of Shinra (and any other grandstanding titles she can make up for herself)... GENDER:: Female AGE:: Sixteen ORIENTATION:: Heterosexual GAME OF ORIGIN:: Final Fantasy VII ALIGNMENT:: It feels wrong not to say 'chaotic', but in this context, harmonious EQUIPMENT:: A giant four point shuriken, her ninja outfit, materia: thunderaga, firaga, blizzaga, curaga.
HEIGHT:: 5"2 HAIR/EYES/SKIN:: Shortish black hair, brown eyes, tanned skin. DISTINGUISHING MARKS:: Fairly distinctive Wutaian features. Yuffie says her most distinguishing feature is that she's a 'total babe' and 'smoking hot'. Most people do not agree.
II. PERSONA
Cocky, brash and arrogant, on the surface Yuffie can be incredibly irritating. She's fast to boast, aggressive, and overwhelmingly proud of herself, going as far as giving herself impressive sounding nicknames and titles. She tends to be very forward, acting without shame towards her goals, and always ready to challenge somebody to a fight. She has a very high opinion of herself, and often vastly over-estimates her own abilities. She also has a definite love of the theatrical.
She is snippy, humorous, and obnoxious, often coming up with demeaning nicknames for people. She tends to tell people exactly how she feels and isn't particularly good at hiding her emotions, although she can be deceitful and clever at times. She's very energetic and excitable.
Despite trying to project an aura of a selfish, self-absorbed thief, she actually has a surprisingly good heart, and in particular is deeply invested in the fate of her nation. Although she doesn't care at all for tradition, she still wants to see Wutai restored to greatness. She tends to be disruptive and doesn't much care for being told what to do, despite having a decent heart. She is utterly obsessed with Materia, and isn't even sure why herself, often giving different excuses for it. She suffers from severe motion sickness in any kind of moving vehicle.
III. HISTORY
Yuffie was born to Kasumi and Godo Kisaragi. Godo was the leader of the Nation of Wutai, but Yuffie was born during a time of war. Midgar wanted to build a Mako Reactor in Wutai, and Godo had rebelled against their plans. Wutai was losing the war badly and Yuffie's formative years were spent watching Wutai slowly have its rich history and tradition as a proud warrior culture stripped away as it was slowly conquered by Shinra.
As the daughter of Godo, and a princess of Wutai, Yuffie was trained from an early age in ninjitsu and combat techniques. Her mother passed away when she was very young, leaving Yuffie under the care of only her father, who had taken a resigned approach to the governance of Wutai, seemingly accepting it's inevitable defeat. She felt that Wutai was losing both its identity and its cultural heritage, and even as a child wanted nothing more than to see Wutai fully restored and defeat its enemy, Shinra. From as early as nine years old, Yuffie was proudly announcing herself to anybody who would listen as 'Wutai's Greatest Warrior'. She also began actively hunting treasure to try and fund Wutai's restoration, under the alias 'Treasure Princess', having stolen a list of treasure from her father, but largely failed in her various plots (which involved leaking the location to SOLDIER and then ambushing whoever turned up to try and claim it for herself; unsurprisingly this didn't work out). The only SOLDIER who ever answered her mails was Zack Fair, who tended to go along with her schemes enough to try and find the source of her information, but also looked out for the child Yuffie.
Shortly afterwards, AVALANCHE came to Wutai, as did the Turks. Not realising that the Turks worked for Shinra, Yuffie helped them for a short time. However, despite only knowing them for a short time, Yuffie's life changed drastically for one very simple reason; she learned about materia. Fascinated, she was determined to steal all the materia she could from the Turks, and although she failed and abandoned them as soon as she realised they worked for Shinra, she had a new obsession set for life.
The following years as Yuffie grew into a teenager were spent mostly obsessing over ways to find materia. She was under the impression that it had the power to help restore Wutai and win the war, but truth be told, she was also simply fascinated by the stuff and badly wanted it. As she got older and her skills increased, she only became more arrogant, her attitude unfortunately not tempered by her father who (Yuffie believed, at least) had fallen into depression as the war was being lost. Given that she was her father's daughter, nobody could keep her in check, and Yuffie would often run amuck, creating new schemes to attempt to restore Wutai, or get her hands on more materia, which often ended in disaster.
The Wutai war ended when Yuffie was in her early teens years old, with Wutai defeated. Despite the peace accords meaning that Wutai would not have a Mako reactor built there, Wutai was stripped of its proud warrior culture, and turned into a quaint tourist attraction, their ancient traditions now turned into a joke for Shinra tourists to observe and buy souvenirs of. Yuffie was doubly furious as she was now nearly old enough to join the Wutai army (uh, give or take a few years, but they'd totally make an exception for a badass like HER, right?) and believed that she could have led them to victory (extremely unrealistically, but she did).
Since then, Yuffie had continued her training as a ninja (although she was a TERRIBLE student, refusing to pay attention if she thought a class was boring, refusing to turn up for certain lessons, and usually acting like she knew better than the teachers), before setting off into the world to search for more materia, believing that it was the weapon Wutai needed to be able to strike back against Shinra. She had seen how effective it could be, and knew that Shinra had a mighty supply, so it only seemed logical to her that was how they were beaten. She just knew if she could get her hands on enough materia, Wutai would be able to fight back!
Plus have you seen how COOL it is!?
Her plan took her to the forests of Junon, where she waited to ambush travellers who seemed powerful and equipped with materia. Doing so brought her to cross paths with Cloud and AVALANCHE, where she tricked her way into the party and journeyed with them. Manipulating them to Wutai, she stole their materia and headed home, but was pursued by the group. Despite betraying the party time and again, her plan went wrong and she was captured by an old enemy of AVALANCHE's - Don Corneo. The party rescued Yuffie, and Yuffie returned their materia to them in gratitude. They did not seem quick to forgive Yuffie but Yuffie, realising that they were her friends, refused to abandon them and continued journeying with them.
When Aerith, one of the party was killed, Yuffie, the youngest in the group, took it to heart, and despite trying her best to keep things together, broke down in tears at her death and swore vengeance on Sephiroth. After that, despite her doubts and worries, she stayed by the party's side, fighting to become more powerful, even defeating her own father to claim his summon materia, and travelled to the Northern Crater to fight Sephiroth with the others.
She fought alongside the party, and together they defeated Sephiroth, freeing Holy and the Lifestream, which reached up to stop the meteor threatening the planet. Despite their losses, and the pain they had been through, in the end, Aerith's spirit and the Lifestream prevented meteor from destroying the planet, and Yuffie had been part of the team that had saved the world. The selfish teenage ninja had become an unlikely hero.
With Shinra destroyed, and the world saved, Yuffie returned to Wutai, to help her father begin to rebuild. With the threat of Shinra seemingly gone, Wutai was the new power on the planet, and Yuffie persuaded her father to reach out and begin to help all the places she had visited. At least, that was the plan. But all of the sudden, Yuffie finds herself somewhere new...
A whole new world. New places to explore. And no way home. That can mean only one thing.
NEW MATERIA TO FIND! The multiverse's greatest materia hunter was BACK in business!
