"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie at least paused for the briefest moment when Celes stated that this was her place of business. She worked at the Dragonblades? Well, she supposed if she was their delivery lady, that kind of made sense. Although it raised questions about where she had been the entire time. She looked back, and then she grinned. "Ohhhh, you mean, you work for us? Right. I betcha been off sick or somethin'. Well, in that case, lemme introduce myself properly. I'm Yuffie! The new leader of the Dragonblades!" she announced. "Well, kinda. I mean, I let Caius think he's still in charge, but, he's not here right now, PLUS out of the two of us, only one of us has saved the world from being smooshed by a giant meteor, so I think we all know I should be in charge really," she 'explained' helpfully. "I had help on that whole, de-smooshing thing, by the way, but we all know I was the party leader really! No matter what Cloud says," she added.
She asked about her parents, and Yuffie put her hands on her hips and glared. "Okay, firstly, I'm not a kid. And secondly, no, my old man's literally on another planet. I think. Or maybe another dimension. I dunno, this whole deal is weird," she said, waving a hand dismissively. "And thirdly, of COURSE you should play pretend. If what you're playing isn't pretend, then it's not playing at all, is it? It's just, working... which is lame," she pointed out.
Yuffie let out a little guffaw as the bag tore, because somehow, it just punctuated this moody woman's... moodiness, and watched as it all fell on the floor. She watched as it rolled away, and stepped back with ninja like guile from the splattering liquid. Then she looked up when Celes asked about the secretary. "Tomoe? Oh, no, I sent her to the cafe to get my coffee. They won't serve me anything with caffeine anymore. They say it makes me a 'danger to myself and others', which, pfft, is a load of crud. So I send Tomoe to get it instead. Because I'm in charge. And that's the kinda thing I can do," Yuffie said with her usual big grin.
She swept down, and instead, began to help picking things up. Mainly because while Yuffie was very much an agent of chaos, she WAS also sometimes helpful, but also because helping someone pick up their dropped goods was the best way to check if there were any neat bits of materia inside. On this instance, there weren't, so she just dumped an armful of delicate bottles on the nearby counter with reckless abandon. "I can get you a mop though! I mean, I know you're the delivery lady and not the cleaning lady, but you should branch out! Discover new skills!" Yuffie suggested helpfully, rushing behind the desk to hold a mop out to her.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie knew that she wasn't technically in charge of the Dragonblades. Not that she'd admit it, but she knew despite what she told everyone that she hadn't actually been given equal leadership yet. However, Caius was currently away, and although his exact words had been 'this does not mean you are in charge Yuffie' or something to that effect, Yuffie had decided, yes, she was legitimately now in charge. After all, how many of the other Dragonblades had literally saved the world? With Caius gone they needed a leader with experience, a leader who knew how to combat evil, and a leader with great ideas like maybe implementing matching moogle cloak uniforms for the entire team.
Unfortunately, most of the Dragonblades didn't exactly agree, but that didn't really stop her from acting the part, which was why she was lounging in a chair that she had decided was where the boss would reside, while looking over various jobs coming in, looking for something fun. "Boring, boring.... totally boring..." she said as she flipped through requests for help, that involved boring stuff like killing rats on farms and such. "Why does nobody ever want us to find buried treasure? Or even, NOT buried treasure! I mean, sometimes, it's just in treasure chests. Which is kinda weird if you think about it. Who's leaving all these random bits of gear and gil in treasure chests in like, caves and stuff?" she asked out loud, not that anybody was listening.
It was then she heard the door open, and somebody enter between the dripping of water. Yuffie jumped down from her seat, and sped towards the entrance, only to see a very sodden, very wet blonde holding a falling apart paper bag. Yuffie paused, trying to piece together who she was. She was rambling about having brought some things in. Oh right, so probably, the delivery girl. That was probably why she couldn't afford an umbrella.
"Oh cool. We usually take deliveries round the back," Yuffie said, jabbing a thumb behind her. She had no idea if it was true, but it sounded like the sort of thing she should say. Now that she was in charge, of course. "Must be a great day for you though, right?" she asked. "I mean, you stop by here, and you get to meet the great Hero and Leader of the Dragonblades! Yep, that's right! It's me! The Single White Rose of Wutai! The one and only Yuffie!" she said cheerfully. "I don't usually sign stuff, but, uh, well, you look like you've had a day, so if you want me to sign your wet paper bag, it'll only be 5 gil," she offered with a smile.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie looked over at the Tonberry as he failed to recognise the Northern Crater. She supposed that meant he wasn't from her world, which made sense, since also she was pretty sure tonberries couldn't speak in her world. Or, if they could, they were just really quiet about it. Which was just rude. "Oh, yeah, well, if you're not from my world, you wouldn't know it. But the Northern Crater, it's like this, huge crater. That was in the North. Which, uh, I guess you probably got from the name," she admitted after a moment. Even Yuffie could see that that one was kind of obvious.She paused, and peered at the Tonberry for a moment. "Okay, I gotta ask, I've always wondered this, what's with the weird star that appears over you guys's head sometimes? I mean, what's the deal with that? Does it represent something? Is it a spell? I never got that..." she asked.
She paused to consider the information the Tonberry gave her. So he could talk, but most tonberries couldn't. Or didn't. He wasn't very clear on that. "So, how come you're so special?" Yuffie asked. "Ohhh, did your entire race get hit by a silence spell except you? You gotta learn how to dodge those. Trust me. 'cause a LOT of people have tried casting silence on me. Which is super weird when you think about it, since I don't even USE magic much..." Yes, because there couldn't be any other reason to cast silence on Yuffie.
"Wait, Shiva? As in, the summon, Shiva? Blue lady. Wears WAY too little for the power set she's meant to have? Seriously. I mean, ice powers. Put on a parka or something, lady," Yuffie rambled. "But if you're gonna summon Shiva, you know what that means, right? SUMMON MATERIA!" Yuffie beamed, giving a little jump of excitement. "Alright! You've convinced me! I'll help ya!" she said with a big grin. "You get to talk to Shiva, and I get to keep the materia at the end! Perfect!" She didn't even offer him the option, of course.
"Next stop! Ice Temple!" she pointed dramatically, and set off across the ice. And then paused. "Uh, do I need to go slower? You've got teeny tiny legs...." she asked.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
"Medical attention? For nothing extra!?" Yuffie repeated, her eyes wide with completely exaggerated shock. "You mean they patched up their murder soldiers so they could do more murdering for free? Oh my god, did they, I dunno, give you weapons to do murdering with too? What great employers!" Yuffie's sarcasm was so heavy she couldn't help but roll her eyes at the end. "You were a soldier! Of COURSE they patched you up! You know, in MOST socities, like, I dunno, WUTAI, it's generally not considered a selling point that hey, it's okay, you don't have to pay to NOT DIE here," Yuffie pointed out. Yuffie was, she would even admit herself, a bit of a brat, but even she wouldn't fall for Shinra's tricks. "They just treated you nicely so you wouldn't notice, or care, about all the, y'know, TOTAL EVIL they do. And you fell for it, hook, line and sinker!" Yuffie pointed out.
Still, at least he seemed to be doing better now. He realised the errors of his ways.
"Yeah, well, you know now. And you can make it up to me," she replied, not being one to turn down a potential future favour.
"Yeah, I mean, maybe he just bought one like it? I mean, lots of places sell swords, right?" she suggested to explain why Cloud had the same sword. It was possible right. "Yeah, he was pretty messed up in the head for a while. Tifa stayed with him to help him through it, but, I bet he wouldn't have recovered so easily if it wasn't for me! I mean, I'd just kiiiiiinda stolen all their materia and they'd forgiven me so I guess Cloud knew we'd forgive him for all the lies n' stuff," Yuffie decided. What? She might as well take credit for it!
"Wait. Wait. Waaaaait. You know Aerith too? And Cloud? And Tifa? And me?" Yuffie asked, blinking a little. "Wow, it IS a crazy small world! Or was. I dunno if Zephron is bigger or smaller," she remarked. And then she paused. "Well, I... I um, I guess, I'm.. sorry. But she died. Then again, so did you. And now you're both alive again. So, I dunno what's going on," Yuffie admitted, her tone a little more solemn, but she still felt she owed it to Zack somehow to at least tell him the truth about Aerith's passing.
"Don't laugh at me, I mean it," Yuffie said, putting her hands on her hips and glaring at him. "I beat all sorts of people! Including Weapons and Sephiroth and Jenovas and all kinds of stuff," she explained. And then she paused. "So, what? You just, like, bum around Zephron, taking jobs for money? That sucks! You should come work for the Dragonblades! We basically do that except it's a proper organisation and I'm totally in charge except when I let Caius pretend he's in charge," Yuffie suggested eagerly with a big grin.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie paused for a moment, slightly confused. The Tonberry had spoken, which was pretty weird. It had also told her that she was incorrect, which was less weird. People did that to her a lot. But she frowned for a moment as she tried to process why he was saying that. "Wha-?" she began, before pausing again. "No! Not, you you. I mean, I've fought tonberries before! They all hung around in the Northern Crater with the really big scary monsters, then you'd be like, 'awww, that lil' guy looks harmless' and think you had a break, and then, STAB! They'd surprise ya!" Yuffie explained the entire Tonberry incident. And then she paused again.
"Wait! You can talk! Tonberries don't normally talk!" she pointed out. She paused again as she considered the Tonberry before her. He also wasn't plodding towards her with his knife and that blank expression on his face like they usually did. Maybe Tonberry on Zephron were different? Either way, she wanted to keep her distance just in case she suddenly got stabbed out of nowhere.
And then he mentioned a 'Temple of Ice'. Yuffie had no idea there was a temple of ice. She had just been there for snowboarding. But temples usually had good treasures. Even more if they were just named after an element or something. This wasn't A Temple of Ice. This was THE Temple of Ice. That sounded important.
"Temple of Ice? Well, sounds dangerous. You probably need a ninja. Y'know, who's super good at evading traps and finding treasure. Lucky for you, I'm here!" she said cheerfully. "And, y'know, 'it'. As in, fighting. But we're not gonna do that now. Let's go treasure hunting instead!" Yuffie beamed, abandoning her snowboard to begin trudging towards the Temple of Ice.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Mount Hotan was peaceful. The whiteness stretched off across the slopes, broken up only by the trees that stuck out, gathering their own snow on their branches. It was quiet. Peaceful. Serene.
That was, until Yuffie Kisaragi got there.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" The shrill voice rang out across the mountains as the tiny form of a ninja on a snowboard rocketed down it, arms pinwheeling around as she tried to keep her balance. "HOW DO YOU STOP THIS CRAZY THING!?" she yelled out at the top of her voice as the line of trees rapidly approached. She saw the tree line getting closer and closer, and decided it was now or never to try and stop it. "WHOAWHOAWHOAWHOA!" she yelped as she turned the snowboard, immediately fell over, and ended up rolling down the hill in a mixture of snow and flailing ninja limbs.
She came to a stop in the midst of the trees, luckily not colliding with any of them as the snow drift that surrounded her padded her impact. For a moment, only flailing legs strapped to a snowboard could be seen, and then after some fighting Yuffie managed to right herself.
Only for a tree branch to fall off the tree above and conk her on the head. "OWWWWWWWWW!" she sulked, rubbing her head. "How did Cloud make this look so easy?" she pouted as she dug herself out of the snow hole she had created.
And then she realised she was talking to a tonberry.
"WAAAAH! TONBERRY!" she yelled out defensively, immediately reaching for her shuriken. She dropped into her fighting stance. "Okay, little guy, I'm not falling for that whole, cute adorable little monster thing again! Where you're all adorable and cute and then WHAM! You stab me! Fool me twenty seven times, shame on me! Fool me twenty eight times and.... I won't get fooled again!" she yelled. "Bring it on!"
Yuffie just gaffawed a little when Zack commented on Shinra being the 'company that cared'. She just looked at Zack like he was a complete moron, and grinned. "You really BELIEVED that about Shinra? Y'know they started an entire war 'cause they wanted to build reactors, right? Tried to subti... subtog... subtigigate.... .... tried to beat a whole nation? Destroy all our culture? You know when you were runnin' around Wutai killin' all our soldiers? That whole war thing? We didn't start they! They're an Electric Company and they literally invaded us to try and take over. They were always the bad guys! You just never noticed," Yuffie pointed out, for once feeling like the smart one (despite her inability to pronounce 'subjugate').
"Oh yeah, Cloud totally had the same sword as you," Yuffie nodded, not that that answered anything. "Yeah, he figured it out eventually. See, he went all crazy after the mako poisoning and got better but then for some reason thought he was a First Class SOLDIER so went around telling everyone that. But it turns out he just thought he was, well, you, I guess. Then he kinda remembered and fell into the Lifestream and was in a wheelchair for a while and then Tifa stayed with him then he remembered and I was all like 'say whaaaat but you called me a liar' and then I was sick because we were on an airship, but, uh, that part's not really related to the story..." she said, trailing off. "Anyway, all the Mako poisoning gave him like SOLDIER powers. Or maybe 'cause he was injected to Sephiroth cells. I dunno. I wasn't really paying attention and it got SUPER complicated, but Sephiroth could control him for some reason and they had this whole rivalry thing goin' on," she went on, waving a vague hand at the weirdness.
"Actually, that was SUPER weird. Sephiroth could control Cloud except when we all went to beat him up he didn't bother. Wonder why that was..." Yuffie said thoughtfully, and then shrugged. "Oh well."
"Yeah, Sephiroth went SUPER far. He went to live in the Northern Crater and summoned meteor, and he had sqwuicky Jenova clones of himself running around. He killed lotsa people, including Aerith, who was totally a friend of mine," she paused, still sad by that. "But she's alive again now here like you are so it's okay!" she added, beaming a smile. Of course, Yuffie had no idea that Zack knew Aerith too.
"Well, just don't go workin' for any new evil corporations," Yuffie advised Zack at his new life in Zephron. "Else I'll hafta kick your butt! And I can do it this time, 'cause I'm totally an adult now and even more badass than I used to be!" she announced, throwing a few air punches just to demonstrate.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Usually, Yuffie would have complained when Caius's hand came down on her head. She hated people treating her like a kid, even if she knew she was pretty young compared to the others. But in this instance, she was just too excited by the recent news of Aerith being alive to worry about it. Caius seemed to agree that Yuffie's trial could be delayed, which, well, that was fine. While Yuffie was eager to prove herself to the Dragonblades, she was even more eager to see Aerith again. "Sure, sure. Plus, like, Cloud will back up everything I told you about me helping save the world. So, it's not like I even need a trial!" she pointed out with her usual enthusiasm, although she was mostly distracted by the fact that Aerith was alive.
"Hey! I gave you all the deets, whatcha talkin' about?" Yuffie asked when Caius asked Cloud for more information on Sephiroth. Like Yuffie hadn't already explained it perfectly! His Mom was a goop monster from outer space and he wanted to destroy the world! What else did Caius need?
The answer came as Cloud went into more details, but Yuffie didn't really think it helped add anything. She'd covered the key points! Cloud explained more, but Yuffie piped in; "AND he killed Aerith!" angrily when Cloud left that bit out. Sure, okay, so maybe she wasn't STILL dead, but the moment had wounded Yuffie enough that she felt she had to point it out. She paused. "I mean, I know, Cloud said she's back, but he killed her. Then we killed him. And I guess he's alive again too. So... um... this place is weird?" she said as she tried to process all of that information.
"The point is he's evil! Even before he did all that stuff in Nibelheim he was fighting for Shinra! He helped crush Wutai and my people. He's always been a bad guy. He just got even worse! You can't trust anyone who used to fight for Shinra!" she declared. And then she paused, and looked at Cloud. "Uh, except Cloud. You can trust him," she added quickly.
"Anyway! We're wastin' time! C'mon, Cloud! We gotta go see Aerith!" Yuffie said, her excitement returning, and everything else fading away at the thought of going to see the flower girl that she'd thought dead for so long.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie had scrambled to her feet with her usual boundless energy, despite Zack's offer to help, but she stopped, looking surprised as he explained the situation. So, he had died, and now he was here? Just like Sephiroth! It seemed sometimes people died, then came to Zephron. Not all the time though! Not Yuffie. She was clearly still alive. Sure, when she had come here, meteor had been about to hit. And the Lifestream had been coming out to stop it, and that was totally going to work, and everything was gonna be fine.
Riiiiight?
"Told ya Shinra were the bad guys!" she said proudly at the news he had been murdered by his own troops. Which, uh, okay, maybe she shouldn't have been so happy about.
"Wait, wait," Yuffie said, something suddenly triggering in her brain. "Wait. Waaaaaaaait," she held up a hand, as she unravelled a mysterious puzzle. "You got locked in a pod for years, and then shot by Shinra, and Cloud got locked in a pod for years, with some guy named Zack, who then got shot by Shinra, aaaaand-" Suddenly, her eyes lit up. "Oh my god! Are you the same Zack Cloud knew!?" she asked.
What? Nobody had ever ACTUALLY specified that before!
"Hey! I wasn't little! I was sneak attack sized!" Yuffie protested as he remembered her. Although she had thought of him much more fondly to just be remembered as that 'little ninja' but she wouldn't admit that. He also seemed impressed by her story, although she wasn't sure he completely believed her.
"Weeeeell, I had some help, but I was totally in charge. Cloud helped out! You know him! And Tifa, who I think you might know but honestly Cloud's story had more holes in it than, like, Cait Sith's cover story so I'm not totally sure," she went on. "We had to stop Sephiroth, who I'm probably guessing you know too. He was trying to blow up the world, but it's okay, 'cause we kicked his butt!" Yuffie threw a few mock punches to show her kicking said butt with her enthusiasm.
And then she paused, realising that said enthusiasm was a bit awkward, since Zack was, y'know, telling her how he died and was locked away. "Um, sorry you got killed and were tortured and all that stuff," she said, scratching behind her head somewhat awkwardly. "But I'm glad you're alive again! Or still alive! Or maybe dead and this is the after-life. I dunno, this whole thing is weird!" she said cheerfully.
