Barret:
YO!
Looks like this ain't no private car!! So split up!!

Barret:
You say sumthin' ?
Barret:
I said, 'you say sumthin'!?
Barret:
Yo, look at that!! It got empty alluva sudden.
What's goin' on?
DAMN!!
I...it's empty because of... g, guys like you...
Y, Y, YIPES!!
You...you've seen the news, right? AVALANCHE says there'll be more bombings.
Only devoted employees like me would go to Midgar on a day like today.
Barret:
Huh? Wait a minute! Did we make a terrorist threat?
Tifa:
What are you talking about? Right about now, AVALANCHE is famous.
Barret:
Heh heh... famous...
Barret:
You workin' for Shinra?
Shinra Manager:
I won't give in to violence... and I'm not giving you my seat either!
Tifa:
Barret!!
Barret:
&$#%!! You lucky ^$#^$.!
Cloud:
So, what are we gonna do now?
Barret:
Shit! The hell you so calm about? You bustin' up my rhythm...
Tifa:
Seems like they just finished connecting the cars. We're finally leaving.
Cloud:
So what's our next target?
Barret:
Hah! Listen to Mr. Serious-about-his-work!
Barret:
Awright...I'll tell ya!
Jessie's probably already told you, but there's a security check point at the top plate.
It's an ID scan system checkin' all the trains.
Tifa:
Which Shinra is very proud of.
Barret:
We can't use our fake ID's anymore...
Good Morning, and welcome to Midgar lines. Arrival time at Sector 4 Station will 11:45.
Tifa:
That means we've got only three more minutes to the ID Check point.
Barret:
Alright, in three minutes, we're jumpin' off this train.
Got it!?
Cloud:
What do we do until then?
Barret:
The hell do I care whatcha do? Just si'down an' shu'up.
Cloud:
Sorry, but I have a thing against sitting down in trains.
Barret:
@^$#! Do whatever you want!
Tifa:
Oh, Barret! Are you mad because I'm not paying enough attention to you?
Tifa:
Cloud, come over here! Let's look at the Railway Map Monitor.
Talk to Barret
Barret:
Yo, Mr. know-it-all, big time SOLDIER! You oughta know the area 'round the No. 5 Reactor, right!
So let's hear YOUR explanation!
Talk to sleeping man
Hmmm......? You're the only ones that'll talk to me or come to my house.
I'm impressed.
Talk to Shinra employee
Shinra Manager:
Waaaaah!!
Don...don't worry about me. (oh man, oh man, oh man...!! I'm gonna brag to everyone at work about this...)
Approach Tifa
Tifa:
Hmm, it looks like you've seen this already...
It's all right. Come a little closer.
Tifa:
That's odd. The ID Check Point was supposed to be further down.
Type A Security Alert!!
Unidentified passengers confirmed... A search of all cars will be conducted!
Repeat!! Type A Security Alert!!
Unidentified passengers confirmed... A search of all cars will be conducted!
Tifa:

Barret:
Yo, Cloud!
Unidentified passengers located in Car #1 Preparing for Lock Down
Barret:
Let's go! Keep it up!
You have 15 seconds to reach next car. Reach car 5 if you want to date Tifa/Barret, or get off earlier if you want to date Aeris/Yuffie.
Talk to sleeping man
Hm? ... You'd talk to me even now?
I'm really impressed. Let me give you a little something as a reward.
Received "Phoenix Down"!

Cloud:
What do we do after we jump?
Barret:
^%$#@! I don't know even why you came!
Tifa:
We got a lot of battles ahead of us. This's going to be tough.
Tifa:
I'll help too.

Jessie:
Sorry!! I've made a mistake...
Barret:
What!?
Jessie:
Ugh...! Can't say...
Barret:

Barret:

Wedge:

Unidentified passengers located in Car #2 Preparing for Lock Down
Barret:
What do you want me to do?
Jessie:

Changing to Plan 2!
Wedge:
I'm goin' first, sir! Let's switch to Plan 2!
Barret:
Damn!! I guess there's no other way...
We gonna kick some ass!
15 seconds. This is a good place to get off if you want to fight Special Combatants without missing any items.
Talk to man in the back
Hey... You guys are rowdy...
Talk to man in the back again
Well, just calm down.
Talk to girl in the front-right
Gosh!! You're adults, but you're making such noise.
Please behave while you're in the train.
Talk to rear-left guy
Hyu---n!! Hyu---n!!
Talk to middle-left guy
Does this mean that we're in a major bind?
Talk to black guy on the left
Huh?
The hell?!
Do you want this?
Yeah...
Wow! I won't even charge you...
Wha-t? Don't get used to it though.
Received "Hi-Potion"!

Barret:
Awright! We clear!?
Jessie:
Not yet. They're starting another check. If we're caught, we're done for!
But, don't worry. If we move up the train, car by car, we should get past it!
Barret:
Damn, man!! Explain it right!
Jessie:
You want an explanation? OK!! Let me.
Jessie:
This train's security system is the old Shinra A system. Once it identifies an illegal ID, the system automatically locks down each car. It'll stay locked until it gets to the Station, where Shinra Guards will be waiting.
Jessie:
But it's an old system, we can get past it. If we move from car to car to the front, we should be able to go on as planned.
Jessie:
The second wave of the detection system should be coming up pretty soon. Let's move to the next car!

Car #3: Locked Down Upgrading to Warning Level 4
Level #3 Warning Car #3: Lock down
Jessie:
Oh no...!
Jessie:
I'm so sorry.
It's my fault that we didn't clear the ID scan. I made a special ID card for Cloud and that's what caused the sensors to go off. I put a lot of effort into it, but it just didn't work.
I'll make a better one next time. I'll head back to the hideout first and work on research and development.
Cloud:
...oh, man...
Hmph...! I know what you want to say.
The game contains code for another thief in car #3 that requires you to run into this car to catch, but it's disabled
Yesss!!
If your money was stolen
Here, take it!
Otherwise
What the hell!
Talk to man in the rear
Brrrrrr......
It's terrible. Who'd expect underwear bandits in this day and age?
They wiped me out!
Talk to man in the middle
Any idea what happened?
All I know is, when I woke up the 3 of us were butt-naked!
But I guess you couldn't relate...
Talk to man in front
That scary broad made me take the bomb.
Of course I couldn't very well refuse her!

Barret:
Shu'up!! Don't talk to me! You're gonna mess me up!
Tifa:

Talk to Tifa
Tifa:
...Scary...huh.
Cloud:
Too late to be saying that now. Why'd you come along anyway?
Tifa:
Because...
Barret:
Hey you two! There ain't no time for that!
Talk to Wedge
Wedge:
Guess who? It's me, Wedge!
Looks like things were a success.
Talk to Wedge again
Wedge:
I look just like my little brother in these clothes...
I wonder how everyone's doin' now...?
Biggs:
I always wanted to dress up like this.
Talk to Jessie
Jessie:
It's me, Jessie. How do I look, Cloud?
Do I look good in a Shinra uniform?
Yeah...
Cloud:
...you look great, just like a man.
Jessie:
Yay!! I'm so happy ...I think?
Not now
Cloud:
Just concentrate on our plan.
Jessie:
You're right, sorry.
Whew---!!
Talk to Tifa again
Tifa:
Yeah!! I've made up my mind!
Watch closely. I'm gonna jump!!
Cloud:
You don't care if I go first?
Barret:
A leader always stays till the end.
Don't worry 'bout me, just go!
Barret:
Yo! Don't go gettin' your spikey-ass hurt!
It's only the beginnin' of the mission!
Barret:
Later! You take care of the rest!

[TUNNEL_1: Winding Tunnel] Inside train tunnel
If you jumped off from train car 1 or 2
Barret:
Oh man...... We were forced to get this far out.
Barret:
We can't just go back now. We've gotta go on.
Barret:
Biggs, Wedge, and Jessie did good. Now, it's our turn!
If you jumped off from train car 3 or 4
Barret:
That was close. I thought we were gonna get caught...
Barret:
They probably don't realize that we've sneaked in yet. We should get to the reactor in no time.
Barret:
Biggs, Wedge, and Jessie did good. Now, it's our turn!
If you jumped off from train car 5
Barret:
Good, so far everything's going as planned.
Barret:
Better not let your guard down till we get to the Sector 5 reactor.
Barret:
Biggs, Wedge and Jessie got everything ready for us. So MOVE it.
Barret:
Well, the reactor's just down this tunnel!
Go to the bottom end of the tunnel

This repeats the battle
Go up to the top end of the tunnel
[TUNNEL_2: Winding Tunnel] Section of tunnel with lasers blocking the way
Cloud:
Those light beams are the Shinra's security sensors. We can't go any further.
Try to run into sensor anyway
Cloud:
After coming this far, only an amateur'd get caught by the security sensor.
Check the vent on the left side
Barret:
That's one damn tiny hole. You tellin' me to squeeze into that to get under the Plate? No way!
Yo, Cloud, what're we gonna do?
Look inside closely
Tifa:
...There seems to be nothing that'll get us stuck in this duct.
Cloud:
Yeah. If we go down this duct, we won't be able to come back up here.
Barret:
Don't be wastin' time. Never know when the Shinra'll find us.
Cloud, you jes' gotta go.
Go down
Don't go down
These are the same as choices for the first question
Go down
Choose this to continue
Barret:
But, damn man, that thing gives me the chills.
Don't go down
Barret:
Whaddya mean we're not goin' in? There ain't no other way of gettin' to the Sector 5 reactor 'cept through here.

Check item in front of Jessie
Received "Potion"!
Talk to Jessie. She only shows up here if you haven't talked to Biggs in this area.
Jessie:
I'm sorry.
Jessie:
The ID scan problem on the train was all my fault.
I made your ID card special...... So that's why it happened...
I put my heart into making it. But I failed.
Talk to Jessie again
Jessie:
Next time, I'll give you something more decent.
I'll be back at the hideout in my research room workin' on it.
Go down ladder on the bottom-left
[4SBWY_6: Lower Sector 4 Plate] Raised walkway

Awright, let's go.
Approach reactor core to set bomb, then go back up toward the reactor's entrance, go into room with buttons

SHIT! What the hell's goin' on?
Cloud:
...a trap...
Barret:
Presi...President Shinra?
Tifa:
Why is the President here?
President Shinra:
Hmm... So you all must be that... ...what was it?
Barret:
AVALANCHE! And don't ya forget it! And you're President Shinra, huh?
Cloud:
Long time no see, President.
President Shinra:
...Long time no see? Oh...you.
You're the one who quit SOLDIER and joined AVALANCHE. I knew you'd been exposed to Mako, from the look in your eyes...
Tell me, traitor... what was your name?
Cloud:
Cloud.
President Shinra:
Forgive me for asking, but I can't be expected to remember each person's name.
Unless you become another Sephiroth.
President Shinra:
Yes, Sephiroth... He was brilliant. Perhaps too brilliant...
Cloud:
Sephiroth.......?
Barret:
Don't give a damn 'bout none of that! This place's goin' up with a big BANG soon! Serves y'all right!
President Shinra:
And such a waste of good fireworks, just to get rid of vermin like you...
Barret:
VERMIN!? That's all you can say...VERMIN!
Y'all Shinra're the VERMIN, killing the planet! And that makes you King VERMIN! So shu'up jackass!
President Shinra:
...You are beginning to bore me.
I'm a very busy man, so if you'll excuse me... I have a dinner I must attend.
Barret:
Dinner!? Don't gimme that! I ain't even started wit' you yet!
President Shinra:
But, I've made arrangements for a playmate for you all.
Tifa:
!? What's that noise?
Barret:
The hell is this!?
President Shinra:
Meet 'Airbuster', a techno-soldier. Our Weapon Development Department created him.
I'm sure the data he'll extract from your dead bodies will be of great use to us in future experiments.
Cloud:
...Techno-soldier?
President Shinra:
Now then, if you'll excuse me.
Cloud:
Wait, President!
Barret:
Yo, Cloud! We've gotta do somethin' 'bout him!
Tifa:
Help, Cloud!
Tifa:
THIS is from SOLDIER?
Cloud:
No way! It's just a machine.
Barret:
I don't care what it is!! I'm gonna bust him up!

Choose this if you want to date Tifa
Cloud:
Shit! Can't hold on much longer. Barret......Hurry!

Alright, then, later.
Flower Girl
[CHRIN_1B: church in the slums]
......You all right?
......Can you hear me?
Cloud:
......Yeah......
Back then...... You could get by with just skinned knees......
Cloud:
......What do you mean by 'back then'?
What about now? Can you get up?
Cloud:
......What do you mean by 'that time'? ......What about now?
......Don't worry about me. You just worry about yourself now.
Cloud:
......I'll give it a try.
Oh! It moved!
......How about that?
Whew...... Am I glad.
Take it slow now. Little by little......
Hello, hello?
Cloud:
......I know.
Cloud:
Hey...who are you?
......Can you move?
Cloud:
Huh......?
Hello, hello!
You okay?
This is a church in the Sector 5 slums.
It suddenly fell on top of me. It really gave me a scare.
Cloud:
......I came crashing down?
The roof and the flower bed must have broken your fall. You're lucky.
Cloud:
Flower bed......is this yours?
Cloud:
Sorry about that.
That's all right. The flowers here are quite resilient because this is a sacred place.
They say you can't grow grass and flowers in Midgar.
But for some reason, the flowers have no trouble blooming here.
I love it here.
Talk to flower girl
......So, we meet again.
......Don't you remember me?
Yeah, I remember you......
Oh yeah, I remember now!
Cloud:
Yeah, I remember...
You were selling flowers
You were selling flowers!
Oh! I'm so happy!
If you bought her flower
Thanks for buying my flowers.
Otherwise
You didn't buy any flowers from me though.
Well, that's okay.
You're the slum drunk
You were drunk and dancing around.
Excuse me, but that's really rude!
If you bought her flower
But I'll forgive you, because you bought flowers from me.
Otherwise
I don't remember a thing.
Well, that's okay.
Never saw you before
We've never met before, right?
......I guess you don't remember. You were walking in a daze.
If you bought her flower
But I'll forgive you, because you bought flowers from me.
Otherwise
Well, that's okay.
Say, do you have any materia?
Yes, some.
Cloud:
Nowadays you can find materia anywhere.
But mine is special. It's good for absolutely nothing.
Cloud:
......good for nothing? You probably just don't know how to use it.
No, I do...... it just doesn't do anything.
I feel safe just having it. It was my mother's......
Say, I feel like talking. Do you feel up to it?
After all, here we are meeting again, right?
I don't mind
Wait here. I've got to check my flowers. It'll just be a minute.
Got nothing to talk about
......oh, I see.
Ahhh. I wonder whose fault that is. It takes a lot to grow them, you know. Poor flowers.
Talk to her again
Just a little longer.
Oh!
Now that you mention it......
We don't know each other's names, do we?
My name is......
Name Aeris
I'm Aeris, the flower girl. Nice to meet you.
Cloud:
The name's Cloud.
Me......? I do a little bit of everything.
Aeris:
Oh...... a jack of all trades.
Cloud:
Yeah, I do whatever's needed.
Cloud:
What's so funny? What are you laughing at?
Aeris:
Sorry......I just
Talk to Aeris
Aeris:
Sorry, bad timing on my part.

Cloud! Don't let it get to you!
Talk to Reno
Don't worry about me.
I'll give you a little more time.
Go back to talk to Aeris
Aeris:
Say, Cloud. Have you ever been a bodyguard?
Aeris:
You DO do everything, right?
Cloud:
......Yeah, that's right.
Aeris:
Then, get me out of here. Take me home.
Cloud:
OK, I'll do it... but it'll cost you.
Aeris:
Well then, let's see......
Aeris:
How about if I go out with you once?
[CHRIN_1A: church in the slums]
Cloud:
I don't know who you are, but......
Cloud:
You don't know me......?
......I know you.
Cloud:
Oh yeah......I know you.
Cloud:
that uniform......
...... Hey sis, this one's a little weird.
Cloud:
Shut up! You Shinra spy!
Reno! Want him taken out?
Reno:
I haven't decided yet.
Aeris:
Don't fight here! You'll ruin the flowers!
Aeris:
Cloud, don't. Stop!
Aeris:
The exit is back there.
Aeris:
Cloud! Over here!
Aeris:
Cloud, what are you saying!?
Aeris:
Will you take good care of my flowers, for me?
Reno:
Did you see that guy's eyes?
Reno:
They were......Mako eyes.

Did you see that guy's eyes.
Reno:
They were......Mako eyes.
Reno:
Yeah, all right. Back to work, back to work.
Reno:
Oh!
Reno:
And don't step on the flowers......
Hey Reno, you just stepped on them!
They're all ruined!
You're gonna catch holy hell!
Equip Aeris with armor and materia, then go up

Reno:
There they are, over there!
Aeris:
Cloud...that one!
Cloud:
I know. Looks like they aren't going to let us go.
Aeris:
What should we do?
Cloud:
Well we can't let them catch us, can we? Then, there's only one thing left.
Cloud:
Aeris! This way!
Cloud:
All right. I'll hold them off.
Aeris:
Right. Make sure they don't get through!
Reno:
The Ancient is getting away! Attack! Attack! Attack!
There are three waves of soldiers. Aeris's magic is very effective for these battles.
Check a barrel before telling Aeris to hold on
Here's a barrel. If I can just push it over......
On the first two waves
Aeris:
Eaygh!!
On the first wave
Cloud:
Aeris!
Reno:
Think we killed 'em? They shouldn't have put up a fight, I say!
Aeris:
Cloud, help!
On the first wave
Cloud:
Damn!
Cloud:
What's that......?
Cloud:
Aeris!
Hold on a minute!
This gives you the opportunity to push a barrel. Get all the correct barrels if you want to date Aeris, get all the wrong barrels if you want to date Tifa/Yuffie/Barret.
Here's a barrel. If I can just push it over......
Push the barrel?
Yes
First wave, if you pushed the barrel on the left side of the screen
Guuagh!
Second wave, if you pushed the barrel at the top of the screen
Urkkk!
Third wave, if you pushed the barrel on the right side of the screen
Nwahh!
If you pushed the right barrel
Aeris:
Thanks, Cloud.
If you pushed the wrong barrel
Aeris:
Oh, Cloud what are you doing!?

[CHRIN_3A: Church Roof] On top of beams overlooking the altar
Cloud:
Aeris, this way.
[CHRIN_3B: Church Roof] On top of beams, heading toward a large hole in the roof
Talk to Aeris repeatedly
Aeris:
Cloud, hurry.
Aeris:
We'll get outside through the hole in the roof.
Aeris:
Jump off that beam, and we should be able to make it through to the roof.
Walk out of the roof across the diagonal beam
[CHURCH: Church] On top of church roof
Aeris:
Ha, ha...... They're looking for me again.
Cloud:
You mean it's not the first time they've been after you?
Aeris:
...no.
Cloud:
They're the Turks.
Aeris:
Hmmm......
Cloud:
The Turks are an organization in Shinra. They scout for possible candidates for SOLDIER.
Aeris:
This violently? I thought they were kidnapping someone.
Cloud:
They're also involved in a lot of dirty stuff on the side.
Spying, murder...you know.
Aeris:
They look like it.
Cloud:
But, why're they after you? There must be a reason, right?
Aeris:
No, not really. I think they believe I have what it takes to be in SOLDIER!
Cloud:
Maybe you do. You want to join?
Aeris:
I don't know... But I don't want to get caught by THOSE people!
Cloud:
Then, let's go!
Walk a few steps to the left
[MDS5_4: Sector 5 Slum] On rooftops
Aeris:
Wait... Wait, I said!
Aeris:
Puff... wheeze...
Slow......down... Don't leave me......
Cloud:
Funny...
I thought you were cut out to be in SOLDIER?
Aeris:
Oh! You're terrible!
Aeris:
Hey......Cloud. Were you...ever in SOLDIER?
Cloud:
......
Cloud:
...I used to be. How did you guess?
Aeris:
...Your eyes. They have a strange glow...
Cloud:
That's the sign of those who have been infused with Mako...
A mark of SOLDIER.
But, how did you know about that?
Aeris:
......Oh, nothing.
Cloud:
Nothing...?
Aeris:
Right, nothing!
Aeris:
Come on, let's go! Bodyguard!
Keep walking left
[MDS5_2: Sector 5 Slum] Streets outside Sector 5 slums
Aeris:
Whew! Finally made it off! Now what...
Aeris:
My house is over here. Hurry before he comes.
More optional dialogue and items are available in Sector 5. Continue to Aeris's house when ready.
Aeris's Home
[EALIN_1: Aeris's House]
Aeris:
I'm home, mom.
Aeris
[EALIN_12] In Aeris's house
Aeris:
This is Cloud. My bodyguard.
Elmyra:
Bodyguard......? You mean you were followed again!?
Elmyra:
Are you all right!? You're not hurt, are you!?
Aeris:
I'm all right. I had Cloud with me.
Elmyra:
Thank you, Cloud.
Aeris:
So what are you going to do now?
Cloud:
...Is Sector 7 far from here? I want to go to Tifa's bar.
Aeris:
Is Tifa......a girl?
Cloud:
Yeah.
Aeris:
A girl...friend?
Cloud:
Girlfriend?
No way!
Choose this if you want to date Aeris
Aeris:
Hee hee hee......
Aeris:
You don't have to get THAT upset...
Yeah, that's right
Choose this if you want to date Tifa/Yuffie/Barret
Aeris:
Oh, how nice.
Aeris:
Well, that's...nice.
Aeris:
Let's see, Sector 7? I'll show you the way.
Cloud:
You gotta be kidding. Why do you want to put yourself in danger again?
Aeris:
I'm used to it.
Cloud:
Used to it!?
Cloud:
......Well, don't know... getting help from a girl...
Aeris:
A girl!! What do you mean by that!?
Aeris:
You expect me to just sit by and listen, after hearing you say something like that!?
Aeris:
Mom! I'm taking Cloud to Sector 7. I'll be back in a while.
Elmyra:
But dear...I give up. You never listen once you've made up your mind.
Elmyra:
But if you must go,why don't you go tomorrow? It's getting late now.
Aeris:
Yeah, you're right, mom.
Elmyra:
Aeris, please go and make the bed.
[EALIN_1: Aeris's House]
Talk to Elmyra
Elmyra:
That glow in your eyes... you're from SOLDIER, right?
Cloud:
Yeah. Rather I used to be...
Elmyra:
...... I don't know how to say this, but...
Would you please leave here, tonight? Without telling Aeris.
Cloud:
I think I can take care of it.
Talk to Elmyra again
Elmyra:
SOLDIER...the last thing Aeris needs is to get her feelings hurt again...
Go upstairs
[EALIN_2: Aeris's House] Second floor of Aeris's house
Aeris:
You need to go through Sector 6 to get to Sector 7. Sector 6 is a little
dangerous so you'd better get some rest tonight.
Aeris:
Cloud...
Aeris:
Good night.
Cloud:
Oh, man...
[NIV_CL: Cloud's House] In Cloud's dream, with flashbacks to a young Cloud in his house in Nibelheim.
...seem pretty tired......
Cloud:
.........!?
I haven't slept in a bed like this ...in a long time.
Cloud:
...Oh, yeah.
Ever since that time.
My, how you've grown.
I'll bet the girls never leave you alone.
Cloud:
...Not really.
...I'm worried about you.
There are a lot of temptations in the city...
I'd feel a lot better if you just settled down and had a nice girlfriend.
Cloud:
...I'm all right.
You should have...
an older girlfriend, one that'll take care of you.
I think that would be the perfect type for you.
Cloud:
......I'm not interested.
[EALIN_2: Aeris's House] Second floor of Aeris's house
Cloud:
...I must've fallen asleep.
Cloud:
Sector 7's past Sector 6... I should be all right by myself...

Approach Aeris's door or try to run
Aeris:
Cloud! I thought the Turks came back! Get some rest!
Cloud:
Can't get caught this time...
Go downstairs. Avoid running or getting close to Aeris's door.
