Summary
If this were a different story, Zack thinks, he would be using his last moments to remember kind, green eyes and a sweet smile. He would be staring out into the raining sky, life running out of him, while making peace with the fact that he would never see his first love again. If this were a different story, Zack would not be left empty-handed, crying out as his friend stumbles away into the remnants of a battlefield. He would not be praying for that blond head to turn, aching to capture the final sight of a cherished face before locking it behind two lids.
No, this does not feel like a fitting end to this story at all―and Zack overflows with the one childish thought that this is unbearably unfair. In the rare moments that he, as any soldier must, contemplated his death, he never imagined that he would die alone.

Summary
“Embrace your dreams, and, whatever happens, protect your honor as SOLDIER.” The voice sent a shiver of painful familiarity down Cloud's spine. “Well, okay, you never made SOLDIER...but it’s what’s in here that counts.”
Cloud swallowed past the tightness in his throat, pushing aside the familiar sting behind his eyes as tears began to form. He had dreams about Zack but that’s all they were, dreams. This was different. He was awake and in the middle of a fight that was not only to save his own life, but to save the planet. He had no idea what was happening but he didn’t care. There was only one thing Cloud cared about.
“Zack,” he whispered. His voice cracked, making the disbelief and hopelessness audibly evident.
“Well, you need a hand with him?” Zack asked.
“Yes.”
