Leaving Gold Saucer


Cloud and the others pass through North Corel on their way to Gold Saucer.

Man
A buncha guys called Turks came here sayin' they'd pay 10000 gil for some rock called a 'Keystone'.
When I asked how much they'd pay for a regular rock just layin' around here, they slapped me upside my damn head!!

Man 2
I'll never understand the rich. I heard some guy named Dio at the Gold Saucer is collectin' rocks!

They take the Ropeway up to Gold Saucer.

Fortune Telling Machine (at Wonder Square)
What you are looking for is near.

Cloud and the others make their way to Battle Square, which has by now reopened.

Man
I heard that this is the curator's favorite attraction. He likes it so much that he even has his collection displayed in the arena.

Woman
Are you here for the battle, too?

Cloud
- That's the idea
- Not interested

That's the idea

Woman
I like fighters. But hate those who're all talk.

Not interested

Woman
Is that so.

Cloud continues on up the steps.

Black-haired Man
Crap! I still don't have enough points.
Mmm? You're new here, aren't you? Then, you want an explanation of the Battle Arena?

Cloud
- Yeah
- Not interested

Black-haired Man
You fight here and collect battle points. You can then exchange those points for prizes.
The Battle Game... even though it's a game you still use all your physical abilities. To participate, go to the front and pay yer GP's.
You can fight in up to eight battles. The more you win, the more battle points you get.
But, if you lose, you lose all your points. So it's up to you whether or not to fight after each win.
They also make it harder by givin' out handicaps.
They decide what handicaps there'll be, and you won't know what you're up against until the battle.
Oh yeah, once you leave the Battle area, all your battle points will become useless. So watch it.
Oh, and one other thing. The maximum points you could get is 65000, no more. So if you get that many you should exchange them for something.

If you talk to him again after hearing his explanation...

Black-haired Man
Hmm...
So, uh, how've things been since then?

Cloud
- No sweat
- They're going

No sweat

Black-haired Man
Hmm, pretty good.

They're going

Black-haired Man
Ha ha ha! Well, good luck.

Large Man
Maybe I could've made it a little further. It's so hard to know when to stop...
Man, I knew I should've stopped. But it's so hard to stop...

Man Practicing Kicks
I'm not going to lose this time!
All right, it should be my turn comin' up here soon.

Registration Lady
Hey, have you heard? Something awful happened!
Two staff members and some Shinra soldiers were shot.
The soldiers died instantly, but the staff survived.

Barret
Dyne......

Registration Lady
Register for battle? The registration fee is 10 GP.

Cloud
- Let's do it
- Not interested

Registration Lady
This is a one-on-one battle. Which one of you will participate?

After selecting a party member:

You can engage in up to eight battles. Be aware the more battles you engage in, the greater the handicap, and stronger the Monsters will become.

Cloud
Well, I guess I'll enjoy a few battles.

Barret
I'm gonna bust the place up!

Aeris
Let's make this quick.

Tifa
I'll show 'em with a BANG!

Nanaki
I guess it'll be fun to show off what I've got.

Yuffie
I'll show you my moves!

Cait Sith
Then, I'm off!

Vincent
Hmph...I'll show them what real fighting is.

Cid
Let ol' Cid show ya how it's done!

Points Machine
Welcome. You currently have X battle points.
Would you like to exchange them?

Cloud
- Yeah
- No, thanks

Points Machine
Thank you very much. Please remember, your battle points become invalid once you leave the Battle Arena.

Staff Person
Whenever you come to the Gold Saucer, I recommend you visit the owner's museum at least once.

Cloud enters Dio's Show Room. Various items rest on pedestals around the room, with plaques labeling them.

Item Plaques
"Star Cup"
"Weekend Clock"
"Laugh Sapling"
"Slayer's Pot"
"Chisa's Mask"
"Dio's Portrait"
"D Type Equipment"
"Zauger's Cup"
"Calling Gourd"

In the center display is the Keystone.

Cloud
It's the Keystone...

Dio enters from behind him.

Dio
Heh, heh, heh. Long time no see, my boy. Hmm? You like that, huh?

Cloud
Can you let me borrow this?

Dio
Heh, heh, heh. Sorry, but it's not for rent.
Hmm.
Since you've been good to me in the past, I CAN let you have it on one condition.

Cloud
One condition?

Dio
Heh, heh, heh. Entertain me!

Cloud
- What'd you want me to do?
- Not in the mood

What'd you want me to do?

Dio
Hoo boy!
Heh, heh, heh. It's not something that's really difficult.
This is the Battle Arena. Show me your fighting skills. Just you, my boy. I'm expecting a good fight!

Not in the mood

Dio
I see... Then let's pretend that this never happened.

When Cloud takes him up on the deal, he enters the Battle Arena.

If he completes all 8 battles...

Dio
Heh, heh, heh! Well done, young man! All right, as I promised,
you can take it. Oh, and I'll give you this too.

Received "Protect Vest"

Received "Choco Feather"!

If he does fairly well...

Dio
Hmm, you did pretty well, young man!
Good, it's a promise, so go ahead and take it. I'll give this to you too.

Received "Protect Vest"

If he does poorly...

Dio
That's the best you could do? Well, a promise is a promise. Go ahead, take it.

Received Key Item "Keystone"!

Dio
Well then, we shall meet again! Heh, heh, heh.

When trying to leave Gold Saucer with the keystone, Cloud is intercepted by a staff member.

Staff
Excuse me, sir.
I'm sorry. The Tram is out of order right now.

Cloud
...so?

Staff
I'm really sorry!
I'm afraid you won't be able to leave until it's fully repaired.

If Cait Sith is not in the party, he bounces up to join Cloud now.

Cait Sith
What's wrong?

Cloud explains.

Cait Sith
Too bad. It happens, though.
I know! Let's stay at the hotel! They know me here. I'll go talk to them.

Staff
I will let you know once the repairs are completed.

At the hotel, the entire team gathers in the lobby.

Cait Sith
We don't usually get the chance to be together like this, huh?
Cloud, how 'bout it? Can you tell us what's happened so far?
I don't really know what's goin' on because I wasn't here in the beginning.

Cid
Yeah! I'm all for it!

Vincent
Good idea.

Barret
I been here since the beginnin', an' I still don't know what the hell's goin' on either.
Cloud, the hell's goin' on? C'mon, tell us!

Cloud
- I'm tired...
- All right, I'll give it a shot...

I'm tired...

Cid
All we have to do now is sleep! You're still young! What're you complaining about?

All right, I'll give it a shot...

Nothing special happens.

Cloud
Phew...
We are going after Sephiroth.
Sephiroth must be in search of the Promised Land.

Cid
The Promised Land?

Cloud
A land full of Mako energy. ...or at least that's what the Shinra believe.
I don't know if it actually exists.

Aeris
The Cetras return to the Promised Land. A land that promises boundless happiness.

Barret
Cetra? That some kinda disease?

Aeris
That's what the Ancients call themselves.
Hey, didn't you listen to the elders at Cosmo Canyon?

Barret scratches his head.

Aeris
...You don't 'know' where the Promised Land of the Ancients is.
You search and travel, until you feel it. Like you just know, '...this is the Promised Land.'

Cloud
Aeris... can you feel it too?

Aeris
I think so.

Tifa
So Sephiroth is traveling the world because he's searching for the Promised Land? Is that it?

Aeris
That, and one other thing he's searching for.

Cloud
The Black Materia...

Cait Sith
I heard from Dio that a man in a Black Cape was lookin' for the Black Materia.

Tifa
I don't even know what the Black Cape is...
How many men with Black Capes and number tattoos are there?

Nanaki
...you know, of course... My tattoo is number 13.

Cloud
How did you get that tattoo?

Nanaki
...Hojo put it on me. Everything else is just war scars, but the number was done by Hojo.

Tifa
So there are at least 13!?

Aeris
...You know......
I think Hojo did something to those men in the Black Capes.
But I don't know what it has to do with Sephiroth though...
That's why I think we should just go after Sephiroth himself.

Barret
Yeah, me too! It's all just too damn confusin'.

Aeris
And...
I'm sorry, forget it!
I think I'm tired. I'm going to bed now.

She runs upstairs.

Cait Sith
What was that, all of a sudden!?

Yuffie
What!? That's it? I'm goin' to bed!

She runs off after Aeris.

Cait Sith
Is that all? How 'bout the Black Materia?

Cloud
You wouldn't understand even if I told you.

Barret
Now all we gotta do is take action! We're startin' tomorrow!!

He runs upstairs.

Nanaki
Cloud...
I'm number 13. Am I going to go mad too?

Tifa
I don't know what Hojo did to you, but you've been all right so far, right?

Nanaki
But...

Tifa
Be strong.

Nanaki
But, I...

Tifa
Stop it, Nanaki! Be strong!

Cloud
Tifa?

Tifa
You're not the only one who's worried!

Cait Sith
I don't know what's goin' on, but we're in a bad situation...

Vincent
Hey Cid, let's go back to our rooms.

Cid
...zzzz... zzzz...

Cloud retires to his room. There comes a knock on the door.

[Aeris enters.]
[Tifa enters.]
[Yuffie enters.]
[Barret enters.]


Aeris enters Cloud's room.

Aeris
Hee, hee!

Cloud
What's wrong?

Aeris
You want to go on a date?

Cloud
What?

Aeris
A DA-TE! Or haven't you ever gone on one?

Cloud
- Don't take me for a fool
- Well, not a real one...

Don't take me for a fool

Aeris
Hey...a little touchy, aren't we?

Well, not a real one...

Aeris
No, just a mixed-up kid...

Aeris
Oh well, come on let's go...

She runs around behind him and starts pushing him out of the room.

Cloud
Hey!

Upon arriving together at the Station...

Man
Tonight's Enchantment Night! All the attractions are free.
How 'bout it you two? There's going to be an entertaining show in Event Square!

Aeris
Come on, let's go.

The two of them head for Event Square, where they are greeted immediately.

Cloud

Aeris
This sounds like fun. Come on Cloud, let's do it.

She runs off after the man. Cloud shrugs and follows. The show opens to an empty stage and the narration begins.

Narrator
Long, long ago...
An evil shadow appeared over the peaceful kingdom of Galdia...
Princess Rosa was just kidnapped by the Evil Dragon King, Valvados. What will become of her?

After the play is over, Cloud and Aeris return to the Station.

Aeris
Oh, that was fun. Hey, let's go on the Gondola.

At Round Square, Aeris walks up to the ticket booth.

Aeris
Two, please.

Woman at Ticket Booth
Here you are, two tickets.
Enjoy the sights of Gold Saucer.

Cloud and Aeris get on the gondola.

Aeris
Wow, how nice.
Oh! Look, Cloud.
It's so pretty.

At length, she turns away from the window.

......it's beautiful, isn't it?
......first off, it bothered me how you looked exactly alike.
Two completely different people, but look exactly the same.
The way you walk, gesture...
I think I must have seen him again, in you...
But you're different.
Things are different.
Cloud...
I'm searching for you.

Cloud
............?

Aeris
I want to meet you.

Cloud
But I'm right here.

Aeris
(I know, I know...what I mean is...)
I want to meet...you.

The gondola returns to Round Square, and they get off.

Aeris
I had fun tonight. Let's go together again.
You don't like being with me?

Cloud
- Yeah
- That's not it

Yeah

Aeris
Oh, don't tease like that!
Oh, look at the time. We'd better get going.

That's not it

Aeris
I'm glad.
Next time let's take our time and go on more rides.

[Cloud and Aeris return to the Station...]


Tifa enters Cloud's room.

Tifa
Cloud...

Cloud
What's wrong?

Tifa
......
I thought about what I was going to say, but, it's kinda embarrassing...
Hey, Cloud!
Why don't the two of us sneak out of here and spend some time together?

She runs around behind him and starts pushing him out of the room.

Come on, let's go!

Cloud

Two, please.

Woman at Ticket Booth
Here you are, two tickets.
Enjoy the sights of Gold Saucer.

Cloud and Tifa get on the gondola.

Tifa
Oh, how pretty.
Look, Cloud.
Oh, Cloud.

At length, she turns away from the window.

...it's really pretty, isn't it?
Ok, I'm going to just go ahead and say it...

Cloud
...what?

Tifa
Aeris would be able to just come out and say it, probably.
Cloud...?
Sometimes being old friends is hard.
I mean, timing is everything.

Cloud
Yeah...

The gondola returns to Round Square, and they get off.

Yuffie
Would you...... keep me company for a bit.

She runs off after the man. Cloud shrugs and follows. The show opens to an empty stage and the narration begins.

Long, long ago...
An evil shadow appeared over the peaceful kingdom of Galdia...
Princess Rosa was just kidnapped by the Evil Dragon King, Valvados. What will become of her?

Cloud and Yuffie get on the gondola.

Yuffie (sitting backwards to lean out the window)
Wow!
Geez!!

She turns around.

Cloud......?

She gets up and kisses him on the cheek.

Cloud

Yuffie (scratching her head)
I just felt like doing that.

Cloud

Yuffie slaps him.

The gondola returns to Round Square, and they get off.

Yuffie
I'll think I'll sleep really well tonight.
Thanks... for coming with me.

Cloud nods.

Yuffie
You wanna go back, Cloud?

[Cloud and Yuffie return to the Station...]


Barret enters Cloud's room.

Barret
Yo, Cloud. You still up?

Cloud
What's wrong?

Barret
Uh, I was jes thinkin' of goin' for a walk...

Cloud
What, just the two of us?

Barret
What's wrong with that!? Don't gimme no lip!! I say we go!

He turns to leave. Cloud shrugs and follows him out. Upon arriving together at the Station...

Man
Tonight's Enchantment Night! All the attractions are free.
How 'bout it you two? There's going to be an entertaining show in Event Square!

Barret
Cloud, wanna take a peek?

The two of them head for Event Square, where they are greeted immediately.

Man
Congratulations!!
You are our 100th couple today...... Oh, wait...... no you're not...... Sorry.

Cloud and Barret return to the Station.

Barret
Let's go somewhere where we can talk, in private.

They arrive at Round Square.

Barret
Hey! You mean just the two of us are gettin' on...? ...yeah, I guess that's cool.

He walks up to the ticket booth.

Yo. Two.

Woman at Ticket Booth
Here you are, two tickets.
Enjoy the sights of Gold Saucer.

Cloud and Barret get on the gondola. They sit for a while without talking, Barret tapping his foot and both with their arms folded.

Barret
Hey foo. What you wanna see fireworks with me for?

Cloud
Not having fun?

Barret
You should've asked one or the other!

Cloud
Which would you have asked?

Barret
Oh man, there just ain't no choice!
Tifa, Aeris.
Ah, Yuffie?

Cloud
(hoo boy)

Barret
What the hell's that supposed to mean?
Hey, you don't mean... Marlene?
NO WAY! Forget it!
There ain't no way I'm lettin' a wacko like you anywhere near my little Marlene!
She's my baby. My prized possession.
......Marlene.
Wish I could've brought Marlene here. She'd love the fireworks.
Why the hell do I gotta be here with a foo like you...
Shit... the more I think 'bout it the madder I get!
Damn fireworks anyways.

He fires his gun arm.

Shut up!!

The gondola returns to Round Square, and they get off.

Barret
Oh man I'm beat. Let's head back.

[Cloud and Barret return to the Station...]


When Cloud and his date reach the Station, they see Cait Sith there, looking furtive.

Aeris
Hey? What's Cait Sith doing?

Tifa
That's...... Cait Sith. He seems strange.

Yuffie
Hey, isn't that Cait Sith? What's he doing?

Barret
...it's Cait Sith. What's he doin' so quietly?

Cait Sith pulls out the Keystone.

Cloud
!!
Is that the... Keystone?
Hey! Cait Sith!

Cait jumps and runs. If Cloud attempts to do anything besides give chase, his date will stop him. Trying to buy tickets at Speed Square...

Aeris
We've got no time for this! Let's go after Cait Sith!

Tifa
We've got no time to relax. Let's go after Cait Sith!

Yuffie
Is it all right to relax like that? Aren't we going after Cait Sith?

Barret
What're ya doin'? We're goin' after Cait Sith!

Trying to buy tickets at Round Square...

Aeris
We don't have time for this! We've got to go after Cait Sith.

Tifa
There's no time to be riding this. Let's hurry after Cait Sith!

Yuffie
Can we be wasting time like this? Aren't we going after Cait Sith?

Barret
The hell you doin'!? We gotta go after Cait Sith!

Trying to make reservations at Ghost Square...

Aeris
There's no time for this! We have to go after Cait Sith.

Tifa
There's no time to waste. Let's hurry and go after Cait Sith!

Yuffie
Should we be wasting time like this? Aren't we going after Cait Sith?

Barret
The hell're you doin'!? We're goin' after Cait Sith!

Trying to register at Battle Square...

Aeris
We don't have time for that!? Let's hurry and go after Cait Sith!

Tifa
There's no time to waste. Let's hurry after Cait Sith!

Yuffie
Should we be doing that? We've got to go after Cait Sith?

Barret
Whacha doin!? We're goin' after Cait Sith!

Trying to enter the game area at Wonder Square...

Aeris
There's no time for that!! Let's hurry and go after Cait Sith!

Tifa
We got no time to relax. Let's hurry and go after Cait Sith!

Yuffie
You got time to fool around like that? Aren't you goin' after Cait Sith?

Barret
What the hell are you doing!? We gotta go after that damn cat!

Trying to board the Ropeway...

Aeris
There's no time for this, right!? Let's hurry after Cait Sith!

Tifa
There's no time to relax. Let's hurry after Cait Sith!

Yuffie
Should we be this laid back? Aren't we going after Cait Sith?

Barret
What the hell are you doing! Let's get Cait Sith!

Cloud and his date chase after Cait Sith. Eventually they wind up at Chocobo Square.

Lady at Entrance
Sir, we can't have you doing that!

Bystanders
What?

Cait Sith runs past Cloud and down the steps of Chocobo Square, where Tseng arrives in a helicopter.

Cait Sith
Hey! Over here! The Keystone!

He throws Tseng the Keystone.

Tseng
Well done.

The helicopter flies off as Cloud and his date catch up to Cait Sith.

Cloud
Hey!

Cait Sith
W, wait a second. I won't run or hide.
Yes, I was a spy. I was hired by the Shinra.

Aeris
...I trusted you. I can't believe you!

Tifa
Don't mess with us!

Cloud
You think I'm jokin'!?

Barret
Ya dirty &*$*%$!

Cait Sith
I couldn't help it.
How 'bout if we continue like nothing ever happened?

Cloud
No way, cat! You gotta lot of guts acting like a friend but being a spy!

Cait Sith
Then, what are you goin' to do? Kill me?
You'd just be wastin' your time if you tried. This body's just a toy anyway.
My real body's at Shinra Headquarters in Midgar. I'm controlin' this toy cat from there.

Aeris
So you're from Shinra. Who? Who are you! Tell me!

Tifa
So you're from Shinra. Who are you?

Yuffie
Part of the Shinra! Who the *&$# are you!?

Barret
The hell are ya!? What's your real name!?

Cait Sith
Whoa, I can't tell you my name.

Cloud
We're not gettin' anywhere.

Cait Sith
See? I told you! Talking won't do any good, so can't we just continue our journey?

Cloud
You think I'm jokin'!?

Cait Sith
...Alright, yes, I am a Shinra employee.
But we're not entirely enemies.
...Something bothers me. I think it's your way of life.
You don't get paid. You don't get praised. Yet, you still risk your lives and continue on your journey. Seeing that makes me...
It just makes me think about my life. I don't think I'd feel too good if things ended the way they are now.

Aeris
......And so on, and so on...

Tifa
You're lying again.

Yuffie
Sounds fishy---

Barret
Hmph! You ain't foolin' us this time!

Cloud
He'll never tell the truth. Once a spy, always a spy.
We can't go on with someone like that. C'mon get real!!

Cait Sith
...just as I thought. Talking won't make a bit of difference.
But I prepared something in case this happened.
Why don't you listen to this?

Marlene
Papa! Tifa!

If Aeris is Cloud's date...

Aeris
Hey! That's Marlene!

Marlene
Hey! It's the flower lady! Flower lady...

If Tifa is Cloud's date...

Tifa

Marlene
Hey! It's Tifa! Tifa! Help, I'm-

If Yuffie is Cloud's date...

Cloud
...Marlene?

Marlene
Hey! It's Cloud!

If Barret is Cloud's date...

Barret
Ma......Marlene!?

Marlene
Hey! It's Dad! Dad! It's me, Marlene!

Cait Sith
...So, you have to do as I say.

Cloud
...you're the lowest...

Cait Sith
I didn't want to do this... using dirty tricks and taking hostages...
But this is how it is... no compromises. So why don't we continue on as we did?

If Cloud has learned what the Keystone is for...

Cait Sith
Tomorrow is the Temple of the Ancients, right? I know where it is so I'll tell you later.
Of course, we'll get there after the Shinra, but you'll have to deal with that.

If Cloud hasn't learned about the Keystone...

Cait Sith
Oh, you didn't seem to know this, but...
The Keystone is the key to the Temple of the Ancients. Even so, you're all going, right?
I know where it is, so I'll show you later.
The Shinra have already been there, but I guess you have to deal with that.

Cloud
...Well, we're stuck... We'll have to do what he says.

Aeris
I wonder if Marlene is all right... I wonder what happened to Mom.

Tifa
......Marlene.

Yuffie
Uh, yup.

Barret
Sorry, Cloud.


Cloud and the others spend the night at Gold Saucer. In the morning, they again gather in the lobby. Cloud is the last to arrive.

Cait Sith
What took you so long, Cloud?
Oh yeah, about the Temple of the Ancients. I think if we take the Tiny Bronco East towards the sea, we should be able to find it.
Well then, shall we get goin'? Who's gonna go?

Aeris
I want to go! I'm going for sure!

Barret
Yo! I'm goin' too, Cloud! Gotta keep movin'!!

Tifa
You know...... no, forget it. Let's go.

Nanaki
I'm so excited, my tail's starting to tingle. Let's go, Cloud!

Yuffie
I'm startin' to get nervous.

Cait Sith
The Temple of the Ancients is to the east. Shall we go?

Vincent
The Temple of the Ancients... This might be pretty interesting...

Cid
I don't care what's goin' on let's just go!

Cloud and his chosen party head for the door.

Cait Sith
Then see you later.

Fortune Telling Machine (at Wonder Square)
What you search for is in the Southeast

Cloud and the others leave Gold Saucer to search out the Temple of the Ancients.
