Wutai - Stolen Materia

Stolen Materia

Arrival at Wutai

The Turks On Vacation

Lord Godo of Wutai

Yuffie Tricks Cloud Again

Corneo's New Hobby

Yuffie Returns the Materia

Climbing the Pagoda

---

Cloud and the others land the Tiny Bronco on the shores of Wutai and start making their way north. On a hilltop, Yuffie runs ahead and stands in their way.

* Note: Because this is an optional sidequest, it is also possible to do it when either Tifa or Cid are the party leader, so their responses are included along with Cloud's.

Also, while it is possible to enter Wutai before obtaining Yuffie, there is no unique dialogue. The NPCs simply won't mention her, and the Turks will not be present. Likewise, if you enter for the first time on Disc 3, even with Yuffie, the materia sidequest will not trigger.

Yuffie
Wait, wait, wait, wai----t!!

Barret
What!? The hell happened, all of a sudden!?

Aeris
What!? What happened, all of a sudden?

Tifa
What the--? Did something happen?

Nanaki
What happened all of a sudden!? Don't scare me like that!

Cait Sith
Wh, wh, what is it, all of a sudden!? Don't scare me like that!

Vincent
What happened all of a sudden? Did something happen?

Cid
What the HELL is it! Shoutin' out and jumpin' in front of me all of a sudden!

Yuffie
I know this area pretty well.
It gets pretty tough past here. Better get ready...

Barret
...Hah, I know what you're thinkin'. And you sayin' that just now means you're up to somethin'! Right!?

Or, if Yuffie hasn't stolen from you before:

...You serious? And you sayin' that just now means you're up to somethin'! Right!?
That means, I don't trust you.

Aeris
......Hmmm...... Something's fishy...
You're not planning something sneaky again, are you?

Or, if Yuffie hasn't stolen from you before:

......Hmmm... Something's fishy...
You're not planning something sneaky again, are you?

Tifa
...Really? Somehow,...I don't believe it.
Are you trying to con us again...?

Or, if Yuffie hasn't stolen from you before:

...Really? Something's telling me I still shouldn't trust you.
Are you thinking of tricking us again...?

Nanaki
Hmm...... Smells fishy.
You're not going to trick us again...?

Or, if Yuffie hasn't stolen from you before:

Hmm, ... Smells fishy.
My nose never lies!

Cait Sith
You serious? I can't trust a person like you.
But, I guess I'm not one to talk.

Vincent
Further down? I don't see any signs of danger...
Also, there's something unnatural in the way Yuffie's acting...

Cid
Hey! You, serious?
If you're trying to con us, you won't get away with it!

Yuffie
No! It's REALLY tough...

Soldiers
There they are, catch 'em!!

Shinra soldiers run in.

Cloud
Shinra!?

Tifa
Shinra!?

Cid
What, the Shinra!?

Barret
The Shinra!!

Aeris
Hey, the Shinra......!?

Nanaki
It's Shinra!!

Cait Sith
That's Sh... Shinra's......

Shinra Soldier
Hey, that's not them! These are the other guys from before!!

Barret
Yuffie, so you're...!

Aeris
Yuffie, did you by any chance...

Tifa
Yuffie, you're not......!

Nanaki
So you were, Yuffie...!!

Cait Sith
Not bad, Yuffie, not bad at all.

Vincent
So what does this mean... You will explain this later...

Cid
Yuffie! You sure got some nerve, kid!

Yuffie
I didn't know! I have nothing to do with this one!

Barret
Whaddya mean 'this one'!? 'This one'!
So you WERE plannin' somethin'!!

Aeris
This one? What do you mean 'THIS one'?
So you WERE up to something bad!

Tifa
This one? Did you just say 'THIS one'?
So you WERE trying to pull something off!

Nanaki
What do you mean 'this one' 'THIS one'!
So you were concocting some evil scheme!!

Cait Sith
This one? What do you mean 'THIS one'?
So you had something else that you're planning to trick us with!

Vincent
What do you mean, 'This one'?
You had something else in mind?

Cid
Whaddya mean 'THIS one'! 'THIS one'!
So you WERE planning some crooked $%*&!!

Yuffie
No, umm, uh......

Shinra Soldiers
What should we do!?
Uh...... Get them! Grab them and ask questions later!!

The soldiers run to attack Cloud and the others, and Yuffie runs off in the confusion.

Barret
The hell's goin' on!?
I knew somethin' was missing. All my materia's gone!!

Aeris
What's going on!?
I thought something was missing... my materia's all gone!!

Tifa
What's going on!?
I thought something was fishy... My, my materia is missing!!

Nanaki
What's going on?
I thought something was funny, my materia, disappeared!!

Cait Sith
What's going on!?
Something's missing, and it's my materia-it's all gone!!

Vincent
I thought something was wrong, So that's it.
Look, my materia's been stolen...

Cid
What the hell's goin' on!
I knew I was missing something... My materia's gone!!

If Yuffie was in the party, either Barret or Nanaki will come running up, depending on which wasn't with you.

Barret
Hey, we gotta problem! Our materia's all gone!!

Nanaki
O... OH NO! All of our materia... gone!?

Cloud
Hey... where's Yuffie...?

Tifa
Hey... where's Yuffie...?

Barret
Yo... where's that $#@^% Yuffie...?

Aeris
Hey... where's Yuffie...?

Nanaki
Hey... where's Yuffie...?

Cait Sith
Now... where's Yuffie...?

Cid
Ey... where the hell's that damn kid...?

They all look around.

Barret
That &*&$ kid!!!
Grrrrrgh!! Arrrrrgh Uhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
She was after our materia from the start!!
She went North! When I get my hand on her, I'll get our materia back!
C'mon! We're goin' after her!

Aeris
I'm so------ mad!!
She was probably eyeing our materia from the beginning.
Seems like she headed North. Let's hurry after her and get our materia back!

Tifa
She's done it to us again!!
I'm never gonna forgive her!
She was after our materia from the beginning.
I won't let her get away with it! I'm pretty sure she ran off North. Let's go after her!!

Nanaki
ZOUNDS!!
Grrrrrrrrrgh...... Grrrgh! Grrrrrrgh!!
Her objective was stealing our materia from the beginning.
...sniff... North! She ran off to the North!
I'm not going to let her get away with this! Hurry, hurry! We have to get our materia back!

Cait Sith
She's done it again!
She sure took us for fools!
She must've been after our materia from the beginning.
We can't just let her get away, right? Then, let's hurry after her! Which way? It's North, the North! It's a message from the stars!

Vincent
Inexcusable...
Seems as though all that she was after was our materia.
We can't just let her get away. She ran off...... to the North...
We must go after her and retrieve our materia back.

Cid
That little ^%#^$@!!
Takin' me for a fool!!
No doubt about it! That kid was after my materia from the start!!
Hmm... Seems like she went North.
Don't be draggin' your asses! We're going right NOW! That $#@^ is history!!

If Cloud tries to get back in the Tiny Bronco to leave...

Cloud
...First, I gotta do something about her.

Tifa
I can't just leave it there...

Cid
Damn kid! I'll get her no matter what!

They go north and arrive in Wutai, where they immediately spot Yuffie.

Yuffie
Hey!!

She runs off.

Outside Yuffie's house..

Yuffie
This is MY house! Nobody gets in!

Man on the Path to Godo's House
Lord Godo is in this house.
He used to be quite strong, but now, all he does is sleep......
What, Yuffie... It's best to ask Lord Godo about that.
But today he's not in the best of... Well, I should say... But really he's not so......

In the Weapons shop...

Weapons Shopkeeper
Sorry, listen I... No, nothing... never mind.

Man
Sorry, but we're entirely sold out now.
What's this here? Ah, no... that's uh...
...a sample! Yeah, that's it... a sample. Sorry, but why don't you all come back later?

The local pub, Turtle's Paradise... Outside is a flyer.

Pub [Turtle's Paradise] Publicity Flyers! Notice
[Turtle's Paradise] is now having a Publicity flyer campaign.
They will be posted all over the world. So make sure you look for our flyers that say "Turtle's Paradise"
There's six in all. If you find them all, make sure to let the owner of Turtle's Paradise know. You can win a prize!
Just reading them's good enough, so please don't take them down or rip them up!!
--Owner, Turtle's Paradise

Barkeeper
Hey, hey, welcome! You on a trip? Well, just relax and make yourself at home.
Nowadays, thanks to tourism, Wutai's able to get by.

Man
Hey. Did you hear? There used to be a Water God here in Wutai.
They say the Water God was a huge snake!
Now we live in a world filled with Mako. Not many people would believe in something like that now.
But some in the world, and here in Wutai, still believe.
Believe in the scales of the Water God and in materia that has its power in it.

Cloud walks up to the Turks - Reno, Rude, and Elena - who are drinking at a table.

Elena
Yy, you!? How did you get here...?

She jumps up.

Never mind that. I guess it's fate that brought us together.
Get ready to die!!

Cloud and the others ready their weapons. Reno and Rude don't move.

Reno
...Elena, you talk too much.

Elena
Ww, what?

Reno
What are we doing way out here in the middle of nowhere?

Elena
We're taking our vacation and resting up from our work.

Reno
Now our vacation is ruined.

Elena
B, but...

Rude
...even the booze tastes bad now.

Elena
...sorry...

She sits back down, and Cloud relaxes.

Elena
Hmm, you're lucky all right. Now get out of my sight!
The next time we meet I won't be so nice.

Reno
Drink, Rude! How long have we been a team...?
There have been hard times being a Turk, but all in all, I'm glad I did it.
I even got to meet a bunch of wing nuts like you.

Rude
To the Turks... To Reno... cheers!

Outside the Item Shop, a little kid is running around.

Little Kid
Alright, alright, alright! I know!
On the side of the mountain, right there in your face is Da-chao!
I hear you can climb to the top, but since it's dangerous I'd be mighty careful if I were you!
A girl with materia? No, there hasn't been anyone climbing Da-chao for some time now.
You know I've noticed that there's pounding noise from time to time in this store.

Man on the Path to Godo's House
Lord Godo is in this house.
He used to be quite strong, but now, all he does is sleep......
Anyhow, for some reason Yuffie's had a fondness for materia ever since I can remember.
She's always hung around places she thought might have it.

In the Item Shop...

Item Shopkeeper
We got a lot of different stuff here. Take what you want.

Woman
I'm sorry. The sign outside says "Materia", but there's almost no materia left anywhere in Wutai.
Listen, this is just a backwoods town. We don't have much to do with Shinra, and besides...
If we had a lot of materia, Wutai would be a much more exciting town, but we don't...

Cloud opens the nearby treasure chest.

Yuffie jumps down from above.

Woman
Huh? What? You DID?

Cloud continues up the path towards Godo's house.

Man outside Godo's House
That five-storied pagoda over there is called the Pagoda of the Five Mighty Gods...
The Five Gods are Power, Speed, Magic, War and Omni, who has the best characteristics of everything.
Since ancient times, we in Wutai, have worshipped Da-chao and the Water God.
Legend has it that the village has been protected by Da-chao, the Water God, and the Five Mighty Gods.
But in the last battle, we didn't fare so well... I guess our beliefs were based on nothing more than legends.

Inside the pagoda...

Gorky
...

If Cloud tries to run upstairs...

Gorky
Freeze!
You aren't from Wutai, are you?

Cloud
- No
- Yes

Inside Godo's house, they find Godo lying on a futon.

Godo
GOOGAH... what do you want?
Don't have... GAH... anything much but, you should be able to... GOO... rest yourselves here. GOGAH... make yourselves at home.
......Yuffie? ......nope, never heard of her. ...GOOGO...
...you again? I told you once, and I'm telling you again, I don't know her.

He sits up.

Listen, I said I didn't know her! There isn't anyone named Yuffie here in Wutai!

He gets to his feet and turns to face Cloud.

...never seen you around here before...
Lately I've been seeing a lot of Shinra soldiers around here... You wouldn't have anything to do with that would you?
I don't care about who you are.
But if you're in trouble with the Shinra, I'm going to have to ask you to leave.
I don't want the Shinra hanging around here looking over my shoulder.

Yuffie
What's with you, you coward!

She jumps down from the ceiling to stand in his doorway.

Godo
Yuffie......!

Yuffie
You scared of the Shinra?
Then why don't you fall into line and obey them, just like all of the other towns!

She runs into the room.

Those guys are the ones who are really fighting the Shinra!

Godo
Shut up! What would you know about this?

Yuffie
You get beaten once, and then that's it?
What happened to the mighty Wutai I used to know?

Godo
No kid like you's going to talk to me like that!
You keep acting like that! You ought to be ashamed of yourself!

Yuffie
That's my style! And it's my own business, not yours! Don't you try and dictate what I should do!

Godo
Style...? Dictate...?
Throwin' around all those fancy words... You're a miserable daughter!

Yuffie
Hmph! You're a sad excuse for a father!!

She runs out and into the shrine down the hall. Godo starts to chase after her, but gives up and returns to his room.

Godo
......take your things and get out of here now.
To protect Wutai, we cannot afford to stand up to Shinra.

Man on the Path to Godo's House
She's always getting into fights. But in that, she takes after Godo to a tee.
Like father like daughter...
Yuffie's like that, you know. Sometimes she'll just bust into people's houses.
Then she hides in the shadows... Just like a little kid.

Woman Walking near River
Life is just like the flowing of a river. It flows from the large ocean of life, and eventually it returns back to it.
Wutai is a historical place. There are some very unusual things here you should see.
Yuffie? I saw her a while ago. She must be in one of the houses around here.

At the old man's house...

Boy
Oh no! More weirdos
No, these aren't like the one from a while ago, but these ones look weird too!

Old Man
Well, well. Long time no see. What have you been up to? Let's see... what was your name?

Boy
No, Gramps! This isn't anyone you know! This is just some stranger who barged into our house!
What are we going to do, Gramps? Some strange-looking girl came in here a minute ago and I...

Cloud pushes aside a screen to reveal Yuffie hiding behind it.

Yuffie
......

She dashes out of the house.

Old Man
Oh, how exciting. You a friend of my grandson's?

Boy
No, Gramps! These guy's are creepy! They're runnin' all over the place!

Man on the Path to Godo's House
She's always getting into fights. But in that, she takes after Godo to a tee.
Like father like daughter...
That reminds me, Lately I've been seeing a kid around here that reminds me of Yuffie.
Always sneakin' around corners And into somethin' she shouldn't be.

If Cloud tries to leave Wutai...

Barret
Wait, that damn Yuffie's still gotta be somewhere in this cheap town! Or you all jes' gonna go on?

Aeris
I don't think she came out from here... Is that ok?

Tifa
Knowing Yuffie, she's still hidden somewhere in town. You sure?

Nanaki
I know she hasn't left town! You still want to leave?

Vincent
She couldn't have left town... I think she is must still be here... Or do you want to go on?

Cid
You lettin' that damn kid off the hook? I know she's gotta be in this town somewhere!

Outside the Turtle's Paradise, there is a barrel that's wiggling. Cloud and the others position themselves near the escape routes and then open it. Yuffie jumps out and tries to get away, but finds herself surrounded.

Cloud
You can't get away, Yuffie.

Tifa
Give it up, Yuffie!

Cid
You lost, Yuffie.

Yuffie
O... ok, I know... I was wrong......
You win. I'll give you back your materia...

She leads them to her house, just as two Shinra soldiers run into Turtle's Paradise.

---

Shinra Soldier
So our reports were right! He IS here on vacation!
We've finally found him! Get the Turks here for back-up!

Reno
...what a drag.

Shinra Soldier
Wh, what was that...?

Reno
Right now we're off duty and can't run off to save your butts.

Shinra Soldier
We know you're off duty, but...

Reno
If you knew that, then don't bother us! Lookin' at you is makin' me sober.

Shinra Soldier
But you all have orders from headquarters to look for him too!

There is a pause. Reno says nothing.

Shinra Soldier
All right, that's it! We'll get him without any help from the Turks, just you see!

The two soldiers run out. One comes back momentarily.

Shinra Soldier
And don't think that headquarters isn't going to hear about this!!

He leaves again.

Elena
Reno, do you think that was really such a good idea!?
I mean is that the way a professional, a Turk would act!?

Reno
Elena. Don't misunderstand.
A pro isn't someone who sacrifices himself for his job. That's just a fool.

Elena
Rude...?

Rude
.........

Elena
Well, I don't buy that! Goodbye!!

She runs out.

Rude
.........

Reno
Relax. She's not a child. Let her have her way now...

---

At Yuffie's house...

Yuffie
I know, the materia, right? I have it stored in a safe place. ...Follow me.

She leads them down to the basement, a training room.

Flyer on Wall
[Turtle's Paradise] No. 6
Drink at the "Turtle's Paradise" And talk about Wutai!
You'll know "Turtle's Paradise" by the big pot outside!!

Yuffie
...I've been hearing that ever since I was little.
Before I was born, Wutai was a lot more crowded and more important...
You saw what it looks like now, right? ...JUST a resort town...
After we lost the war, we got peace, but with that, we lost something else. Now look at Wutai...
That's why... if I had lots of materia I could...

She starts crying.

Cloud
Listen, Yuffie. I don't care about the history of Wutai or your feelings.
You've got our materia and I want it back... now.
If you give it back now, we'll drop the whole thing.

Tifa
I'm sorry, Yuffie. I know how you feel, but we need materia too.
...We just can't let you have it. Please understand.

Cid
......Dammit, Yuffie. We ain't got time to be listening to your life story.
If you want materia, get it yourself. That's how you should do it.

Yuffie
I know. I know that...
That... sniff... switch... the lever on the left...... materia's... sniff, hic... in there.

Barret
Ain't nuthin' we can do about it...

Aeris
I feel bad, but......

Tifa
Now, the Materia...

Nanaki
Were we a little too harsh on her?

Cait Sith
Well, let's get our materia back.

Vincent
There was nothing else to do.

Cid
Hmmph... I dunno......

Cloud
- Flip the Left Lever
- Flip the Right Lever

Regardless of which lever he pulls, a cage comes down atop the party members.

Barret
Wh...what the hell is this!?

Aeris
Eyaaaaah

Tifa
Eyaaaaah

Nanaki
Wh, what are you doing!?

Cait Sith
Wh, what is this!?

Vincent
!?

Cid
Whoa!?

Yuffie
Ha ha ha------! Never trust anyone that easily!! / Ha ha------! You should've listened!!
The Materia's mine! Tough!
You want your materia? Then go find it yourself!
Yeah that's right. And when you're looking for the materia, remember you gotta steel it.
Heh heh... steel... steel! Get it?
C ya!!

She runs off. If Cloud tries to run after her without helping the others...

Barret
Y, yo, wait up!!

Aeris
Wait, don't leave us!

Tifa
W...wait don't leave us here!

Nanaki
Help us first!

Cait Sith
Hey help us...please!

Vincent
Wait, don't go by yourself!

Cid
Hey! Help me first!

Cloud frees the others from the cage and they go looking for her.

At the Turtle's Paradise...

Barkeeper
Seems like the town got really boisterous since you arrived. Did anything happen?

If you have now obtained all 6 Turtles Paradise flyers...

Barkeeper
Congrats! You have just found all six flyers for the "Turtles Paradise"!
How wonderful! Now here is your prize, just as we promised!!

Barkeeper
Please come again to "Turtles Paradise"! We're looking forward to seeing you!

Reno
......It's just that we're off duty!
I don't feel like drinking with you. And don't talk to me.

Rude
.........

Cloud goes to the bell near Godo's house to find the gate open. When he rings the bell, a hidden door opens. Going inside, he finds Yuffie being abducted by a man in black.

Yuffie
Let go! I SAID let GO!
Hey! Who do you think I...... OW! What're you doin'...? Jerk!

Cloud
You......!

Tifa
Oh! You're......!

Cid
Ww, who are you!?

Corneo
......ho..... ...............ho.........
Hohi, hohi! Hohihi!

Cloud
Corneo!?

Tifa
Don Corneo!?

Cid
The hell are you doing!

Corneo
Hohi!
I've finally got a new chicky!
Two for one, in fact! Hohi, hohi!

Cloud, Tifa, or Cid
Two!?

Elena
H......hey! Let go of me! You're gonna regret this!!

Corneo
Hohi, hohi! Hohihi!

Corneo and his lackeys run off. If Cloud leaves and enters Godo's house from the front, he finds two Shinra soldiers blocking the way into the shrine.

Shinra Soldier
Now listen up! They must be in the area! Find them no matter what!

Shinra Soldier
Yes, sir!!

On following Corneo up from the hidden room into the shrine, three Shinra soldiers cut Corneo off.

Shinra Soldier
There he is! It's Corneo! Don't let him get away!
Attaaaack!

Corneo runs to the side, and the soldiers attack Cloud and the others instead. Back outside Godo's house, they find Reno and Rude.

Reno
Hmm... that Corneo is good at escaping...

Rude
......Elena.

Reno
Let's go, Rude. We'll give them a taste of what the Turks can do.

Rude nods and runs off.

Reno
......Sounded pretty good.

He turns to Cloud.

If Elena is in his hands, that's going to make things a little difficult.
And uh...

Cloud
......Ok. Corneo took Yuffie from us.
And without Yuffie, there's no way we'll get our materia back.

Tifa
......all right. Corneo stole Yuffie from us, as well.
And without her, there's no way we'll get our materia back.

Cid
......that's just beautiful! And now that *#$^@'s walked off with Yuffie, too!
And without that brat, we can't get our hands on our materia!

Reno
Don't misunderstand.
We have no intention of joining you. But for now, we'll agree not to bother each other. That's all.

Cloud
That's fine. We have absolutely no intention of cooperating with the Turks either.
Now, uh, just what direction did Corneo run off to?

Tifa
The same goes for us. We don't want to be friendly with the Turks.
Now which direction did Corneo run off in?

Cid
Of course! There ain't no way we'd wanna join up with the Turks anyway!
Anyhow, which direction did that %^$*& run off in?

Reno
Hmm, nice attitude. Here's a clue, it's the place that stands out the most.

Reno runs off.

Man on the Path to Godo's House
Two girls just went off towards Da-chao. I wonder if that place is starting to become popular with the kids?
One had herself all tangled up in a rope. And the other one kind of looked like Yuffie.

Little Kid
Alright, alright, alright! I saw an old man in flashy clothes running towards Da-chao!
He was babblin' somethin' and looked like he could float! It almost bowled me over!

Cloud arrives at Da-chao.

Reno
You're finally here. We're gonna split into two.
You do whatever you want. But don't endanger Elena.
Don't worry. We won't do anything to that girl, Yuffie.
For now...

Following Reno up the mountain...

Reno
Don't fool around. You know the enemy's not gonna wait for us, right?

Following Rude, they find him outside the fire caves...

Rude
......

If Cloud tries to proceed through the fire caves...

Cloud
Whoa!!
Can't go through here... That flame would make crispy critters of us in an instant.

Tifa
Eyaaaah!
There is no way past this!

Cid
Damn, that's hot!
I like hot baths, but this is TOO hot!

In the end they find Corneo holding Yuffie and Elena tied to the face of a statue, observing them from the palm of the statue's hand.

Yuffie
LET... ME...... GO!!!!

Corneo
Hmm! Delicious... scrumptious! I think I've just found a new HOBBY!
Which shall it be? Hmm... Hmm...
Should I go... with HER?

Elena
He... hey, I'm one of the 'Turks'! Don't think you can get away with this!?

Corneo
Or... maybe... HER?

Yuffie
Oh GAWD! If I knew this was gonna happen, I would've taken rope escape lessons more seriously!!

Corneo
Hmm!!! I've made my choice! My companion for the night will be......
...the cheerful one!

Yuffie
GROSS-NESS!
Don't mess with me old man! You don't even have any Materia!

Corneo
Oooooh! And she's saucy, too! Wheee! Wheee!

Cloud
All right, that's it!!

Tifa
Hold it right there!

Cid
Hey, hey, hey! That's as far as you go!

Corneo
Hee-haw. What... what's goin' on!? Who's there?

Cloud and the others run in.

Yuffie
Oh man! Cloud......!

Or, if Tifa:

Oh man! Tifa......!

Or, if Cid:

Oh man! That old fart, Cid......!

Corneo
Wheeel... long time no see.

Cloud
Don't tell me you forgot...

Barret
You damn Midgar hyena...!

Aeris
You just don't get it, do you...!?

Tifa
That fall into the trap really hurt!

Nanaki
Hurry and let the two go!

Cait Sith
Listen you stupid, slimy, sleazy old scab bag! If you want to get women, there's such a thing as the RIGHT way!

Vincent
I don't care what you're doing, so much as the idiotic way you're doing it...

Cid
Maybe God'd forgive an ugly ^#@# like you, but I won't!

Corneo
Be quiet! None of you know how much I've suffered since then...
It's a long story, but......

Cloud
I don't really care! Let Yuffie and Elena go!

Tifa
We don't want to hear it! Just let the two go!

Cid
I don't really give a damn! You're gonna let the two girls go, or else I'm gonna break your arm!

Corneo
Hmm... You guys are... serious. ......Good, good.
...this ain't no time for me to be fooling around either...
Why did you kill my little Aps?
I'm gonna make you PLAY with my new pet, so you won't get in the way of my search for a bride!
RAPPS---come here!!

Cloud and the others fight and defeat Rapps.

Corneo
Wait...
Just wait a second!

Cloud
SHUT UP!

Tifa
You better say your prayers!

Cid
Don't be such a poor loser, old man!

Corneo
Just listen to me - it won't take long.
Why do you think a bad guy like me would swallow his pride and plead for his life?

Cloud, Tifa, or Cid
- 1 Because he's ready to die
- 2 Because he's sure to win
- 3 Because he's clueless

Corneo pushes a button and Elena and Yuffie flip upside down.

Elena
Eyaaaah...!

Yuffie
Makes me so MAD...!

Corneo
If I push this button, they'll fall upside down, and we'll have a SQUASHED TOMATOES!

Cloud
Damn...!

Barret
Damn dirty-playin' $#%@&T$*^%$!

Aeris
All right...

Tifa
Coward!

Nanaki
Grrrrrgh...!

Cait Sith
You sure are vulgar!

Vincent
......!

Cid
So this is how a loser lives...!

Corneo
Now, give me your women too!
Ha, ha, ha, ha! I guess I'm the one laughing last!

Reno
No, that would be us.

Corneo
Hee-haw. What... what's goin' on!? Who's there?

Enter Reno.

Corneo
...The Turks!

Reno
You knew this was gonna happen ever since you leaked that secret.
We're going to take care of you... personally.

Corneo
DAMMIT! Then they're all goin' with me!

Rude runs in from behind and throws something at Corneo, who falls to the edge of the hand.

Corneo
Ugh...!

Reno
Good timing, Rude.

Rude
...Let's get to work.

Reno walks over to Corneo and steps on his fingers.

Reno
All right, Corneo. This'll be over quick, so listen up.
Why do you think we went to all the trouble of teaming up with those guys to get you...?
1. Because we were ready to die
2. Because we were sure of victory
3. Because we were clueless

Corneo
Two... Number two?

Reno
All wrong.

He grinds his foot into Corneo's hand.

Corneo
No...! Wait, sto......!

He loses his grip and falls.

Aaaaaaaaaa......p

Reno
The correct answer was...

Rude
...because it's our job.

Elena
Oh, thank you very much...!
I never expected you'd to come help......

Reno
Elena, don't act so weak.
You're a Turks!

Elena
Y... Yes, sir!

Barret
Never thought you'd come an' help us...

Aeris
Thanks for your help.

Tifa
Th... Thanks.

Nanaki
I'll just say you... helped.

Cait Sith
You guys have some good in you.

Vincent
It would appear thanks are in order...

Cid
I guess, thanks for today.

Rude
......

Reno's cell phone rings, and he answers it.

Reno
Yes... this is Reno.
Yes... Yes... I'll get on it right away.

Elena
Was that the company?

Reno
Yeah, they want us to find Cloud...

Cloud and the others ready their weapons.

Rude
Are we on...?

Reno
No, today we're off duty.

Yuffie
Hey---who cares about that!? Get----me-----down----!

Back at Yuffie's house. She darts around putting the materia back in its slots.

Yuffie
Phew, perfect. Now the materia is back in its rightful place.

Cloud
Hey... the placement of it is all messed up.

Tifa
Hey, what is this...? The placement of it's all messed up!

Cid
What the hell's goin' on!? The placement of the materia's all messed up!

Yuffie
Huh? Oh, it'll be all right...
Don't be so picky!
Anyways, that sure was close......
No, normally I would kick their butts, Boom, Bang!!

She shakes her fist and turns away.

That Corneo guy's a real pain.

Behind her back, Cloud and the others exchange looks.

Yuffie
I'd rather deal with my dad than deal with that guy.

Cloud and the others walk out.

Yuffie
Oh, by the way, some of those guys from the Turks are good, huh?
At least, after all that, we got the materia back.
Now come on everybody, let's continue our journey...

She turns around to notice they've gone.

......Hey!! W...... Wait!
Oh, all right. Here, I'll give this to you guys.

She runs into her room to grab something and comes back out.

Here, look, look!

Yuffie
.........
Come on, wait---!

She runs out after them.

No matter what anyone says, I'm going with you!
...next time......

---

After everything has died down, they can go back to Wutai so Yuffie can climb the pagoda.

Woman Walking near River
Materia is like Life. They both come from the large ocean of life, and both must return to it.

In the Weapons Shop...

Man
Listen, I'm sorry about last time. Yuffie told me not to sell anything to you.

Weapons Shopkeeper
Hey yo! Welcome!
Strike while the iron's hot, I say! We got some of the best blades right out of the furnace!

Little Kid
Alright, alright, alright! I know!
On the side of the mountain, right there in your face is Da-chao!
I hear you can climb to the top, but since it's dangerous I'd be mighty careful if I were you!
Why Da-chao? Alright, alright, alright! I don't know!

Cloud and the others enter the pagoda.

If Yuffie is in the party and they try to proceed to the second floor without fighting...

Gorky
Freeze!
Miss Yuffie! You cannot go on to the second floor until you defeat me!

Gorky
Oh, Miss Yuffie! Will you be climbing the pagoda today?

Yuffie
- Yeah, that's it
- No way!

Gorky
Then I, Sacred Gorky, will be your opponent on the first floor!

A boy runs down from upstairs.

Shake
Yo! They call me Shake! I'll be watchin' your fight with Gorky!

Gorky
Then, begin!
Power Change!

Yuffie fights Gorky.

Shake goes upstairs. If Cloud returns to talk to Gorky without Yuffie in the party...

Gorky
Winning Miss Yuffie's heart must mean you have tremendous skill.

On the second floor, without Yuffie...

Shake
You aren't good enough to be here! This is the Wutai Temple of Martial Arts!

Once Yuffie proceeds to the second floor, she can try to go to the next floor prematurely...

Shake
Hey, you there! Don't ignore me!

Yuffie
Who's next?

Shake
Are you blind? I'm right here!

Yuffie
What? I gotta fight a punk?

Shake
Heh! Punk. I'm more of an adult than some bimbo girl!

Yuffie
Wh, what did you say!?

Shake
See what I mean? That kind of anger's what makes you so immature!
Don't pat yourself on the back until you beat me!

Yuffie
Now watch...!

Shake
'bout the only thing you do really good is breathe! Sure you're brave enough to fight!

Yuffie
- Stop yappin'!
- I'll forgive you

Once Yuffie decides to fight, a woman comes down from upstairs.

Chekhov
So, I guess it's time for Chekhov to stand in...

Shake
Here I go, brat! Speed Change!

Yuffie fights Shake.

Chekhov goes upstairs. If Cloud returns to talk to Shake without Yuffie in the party...

Shake
Compared to me, all of you are nothin' but a buncha babies.

On the third floor, without Yuffie...

Chekhov
That being the case, we have nothing further to discuss.

Once Yuffie proceeds to the third floor, she can try to go to the next floor prematurely...

Chekhov
How dare they mock us like that, thinking they could sneak past us.

A man comes down from the fourth floor.

Staniv
So even Shake's been defeated. It's been a while since you had to fight, Chekhov.

Chekhov
Unfortunately, this is as far as it goes. Staniv, you watch over there.

Yuffie
That ain't going to happen! I'll teach you about the strength of youth!

Chekhov
Keep mouthing off like that, little girl, and you're going to get burned.

Yuffie
- I got insurance
- Let's get this over with, old bag

Yuffie fights Chekhov.

Staniv goes upstairs. If Cloud returns to talk to Chekhov without Yuffie in the party...

Chekhov
Managing that girl must be exceedingly rough on you.

On the fourth floor, without Yuffie...

Staniv
If it were not for Miss Yuffie, I wouldn't be facing him...

Once Yuffie proceeds to the fourth floor, she can try to go to the next floor prematurely...

Staniv
HAAAAH!

The door closes.

Staniv
The rule is the best fighter on each floor will be your opponent... Although it's a five-storied pagoda, the fourth floor is the highest...
In other words, no one has ever defeated me--Master of Weaponry!
You still want to try...?

Yuffie
- Just come on!!
- I'll pass!

Yuffie fights Staniv.

The others start coming up from the lower floors.

Gorky
Splendid! Your level and skills have improved...

Shake
Oh, ho! You might not be as much of a child as we thought you were!

Chekhov
Of course. If WE lost to her...

Staniv
You have defeated four of our best, but now you will have to face HIM......!

He goes upstairs, and the others follow. If Cloud proceeds to the fifth floor without Yuffie...

Godo
...Hm. You can do it......

Once Yuffie proceeds to the fifth floor, she finds the four of them standing on either side of the room with Godo at the head.

Gorky
......

Shake
Sh......!

Chekhov
...

Staniv
......

Yuffie
D, ...Dad!?

Godo
I'm glad you made it this far, Yuffie!

Yuffie
Why, why are you......

Godo
I'll answer you by having you try your skills against me!
Hold nothing back. Come as if you're trying to kill me! If you don't... then I'll have to kill you!

Yuffie
H... hey!

Godo
What are you doing! OMNI-Change! ......!!

Yuffie fights Godo.

If she loses...

Yuffie
Dammit......

Godo
Ohhh! And what was that!? Come back when you get more training!

When Yuffie tries again...

Yuffie
I'll show you this time, you old Fart-meister!

Godo
Hmm? A slight improvement.
Come at me with all you have! OMNI-Change! ......!!

After winning the battle, both lie sprawled on the floor panting.

Yuffie
...heave...... heave...

Godo
...huff...... puff......

Yuffie
O... old coot... n...... ot... bad...

Godo
You've...... also...... improved...

Yuffie
Hah... Ha, ha......

Godo
...Heh, heh......

Yuffie
Ha ha haaaaaa......!

Godo
Waha haaaaa......!

They eventually get up off the floor and compose themselves.

Godo
It's time I gave this to you, Yuffie...
This is Leviathan Materia. Take it.

Staniv
But, Lord Godo. The Leviathan Materia should only be given to the person who conquers and takes over this Pagoda. That is our custom...

Yuffie
CUSTOM, CUSTOM, CUSTOM... I'm so sick of hearing that!
It's so stupid!

Gorky
Silence, Miss Yuffie!

Yuffie
Then what 'bout the rest of you? You have all that power...
Are you satisfied being cooped up in this tower?

Godo
Yuffie...!

Yuffie
You too, dad...! Just because you lost the war!
And turning Wutai into a place like this!

Chekhov
...What do you want to say?

Yuffie
You turned Wutai into a cheesy resort town peddling to tourists...
How dare you!? Da-chao Statue and Leviathan are ashamed!!

Godo
...

Shake
She IS a kid.

Yuffie
Wh, what did you say...!?

Godo
Yuffie!!
Forgive me... It's all my fault...

Gorky
What are you saying, Lord Godo!

Godo
Losing the war... turning Wutai into this. It was all my fault...

Chekhov
Lord Godo!

Godo
Silence!!
Yuffie......
I am the same now as I was before when I wanted the war.
But, after I lost the war, I began to think...
Is strength, only for defeating the enemy?
...or just something to show-off to others...?
Might begets might.
That's the same way as the Shinra...

Yuffie
......

Godo
I knew you were looking for Materia for the good of Wutai.
But, the reason I hide my strength now, is also for the good of Wutai...
And now, I realize both are necessary...
Strength without determination means nothing. And determination without strength is equally useless...!

Staniv
Lord Godo...

Godo
You there, please take Yuffie with you!
I perceive that you all have both determination and strength!

Barret
Jes' don't do nothin' funny to our Materia...!

Aeris
All right. We'll take your daughter with us.

Tifa
...after that, how can we refuse?

Nanaki
As long as she doesn't get in our way...!

Cait Sith
If you put it that way, we can't refuse...

Vincent
Hmm... You may come if you want to...

Cid
Well, just tell yourself you're on a big ship, and leave the rest to ol' Cid!

Cloud
All right, I don't mind.

Godo
Go, Yuffie!
For the sake of strengthening Wutai!

Yuffie
Dad...

Godo
I'll take care of the Five Sacred Gods until you return!
Go! And come back alive!

Yuffie
......
Of course!

Everyone else files out, and Yuffie starts to follow them.

Godo
Yuffie, wait a minute.
The Materia they all have...
After their battle is over, you think they'll still want it?

Yuffie
Dad...!

Godo
Go! Survive till the end! And return!
With the Materia!

Yuffie
Heh, heh... you bet!

She runs off.

Afterwards...

Godo
Go! Survive to the end! And return to us!
Mat-...
Take care of the Materia!!

Or, if Yuffie is not in the party:

Your Mat-...
I mean, please look after Yuffie...!

Staniv
Miss Yuffie. Your feelings for Wutai are the same as Lord Godo's. Always remember that...

Or, if Yuffie is not in the party:

Please take care of Miss Yuffie.

Chekhov
Fight so that you never bring shame on Wutai.

Or, if Yuffie is not in the party:

She's always like this. It'll be rougher on you.

Shake
You say there's some unusual materia where the underground pipe is!?
But, first you gotta get if from a monster and unless you use your head. You won't be able to do it.

Or, if Yuffie is not in the party:

Did that kid mature at all?

Gorky
Miss Yuffie. We pray for your success!

Or, if Yuffie is not in the party:

Oh, you there! How is Miss Yuffie doing?

Cloud and the others leave Wutai and return to their quest.
