Progress: Incomplete.
Summary: Set a few hours after Aerith arrived in his world. Zack takes a detour from his travels to Luca to go and pick her up.
Location: The streets of Alexandria.
Date: Dated the day of Aerith's arrival.
Warnings: None~
She had started off all fine and good after her call with Zack. Everything felt so surreal, that the flower girl hadn't given herself the opportunity to entirely realise that he was here and so very much alive. Each time such thoughts circled within her mind, the flower girl would do something to keep her busy and distract her. At first, she investigated the church within. It was quaint, but nothing like the small little church she had back in Midgar.
The church had only kept her distracted for so long before the flower girl had been unable to resist the lure of exploring such an unknown city. Her attempt worked like a charm, and she so easily found herself distracted by everything she saw around her. It was so unlike anything she'd ever encountered before that she couldn't help but dart from shop to shop in excitement. Everything was just so different, and the whole city just felt so alive!
Stepping out into the main shopping area, her gaze fell on the hat stall just off to her right. The owner was busy talking to another customer, but that didn't stop the flower girl from moving over to stare at the odd assortment. She couldn't help but giggle lightly in amusement as she saw the corn-shaped hat, and unable to resist, Aerith plucked it off of the stand before testing it out on her head.
"Not many can pull it off, but you're one of the lucky few," the cart owner said moments before Aerith spun around to face him.
"You think so~?" She asked before laughing lightly, "I'm not sure how well I can pull yellow off though teehee~"
The man seemed to ponder for a moment before reaching up and taking a large pale sun-hat from the display. "Try this one on. A pretty girl like you should't be hiding behind that anyway."
"Well, if you put it that way," Aerith teasingly said with a bright smile. Pulling the corn hat off of her head, she happily exchanged the hats before trying on the new one. "How do I look?" She asked while giving a demonstration of the hat by twirling for her audience.

SO LATE I AM SORRY
She'd looked different, too, but he hadn't let it get to him. Tifa was from the future. Hopefully Aerith wasn't, because man, that would be weird! And he'd feel like he'd let her down, and he didn't want to do that...
He shook the thoughts out of his head. The airship ride felt like it lasted basically a zillion years, and he was antsy.
FINALLY he arrived in Alexandria. He asked several times for directions to a church. She'd said she was going to wander around, but he had to start somewhere. People were a little weird about it, and he heard someone whisper something about "sky people" again, but he paid them no mind.
Finally, in the midst of several shops, he saw her. He recognized the ribbon he'd given her. Wow! She was really still wearing it! That made him pretty happy, and he all but floated through the crowd towards her. When he reached her he tapped her on the shoulder.
"Have time to miss me yet?" he asked, grinning as wide and convincingly as he could manage.
That's okay! i remember you saying that you'd be busy sun/mon :3

Zack had eventually brought the bird under control. Hers hadn't been as difficult to catch, and eventually they'd all been on their way.
She didn't need the map to know where Midgar was. While she couldn't hear the words from the Planet, Aerith could understand enough to know the direction. She hadn't explained how she knew the way to Zack, but had simply half-lead the way until Midgar came into sight instead.
The area around them had turned to night while they'd traveled, but the flower girl hadn't given it much notice while they approached. Slowing her chocobo, the flower girl couldn't help but stare at the sight of the overgrown Midgar. Her eyes were wide in surprise at what she saw. It was unlike anything that she'd ever imagined, and it took her breath away. Despite it being in ruins, Midgar was... beautiful.
"Zack," Aerith murmured to him before closing her eyes when the Planet tried talking to her again. She couldn't quite understand the words, but the warning was clear enough. "We'll have to be careful. Midgar's not safe." Turning her attention to the SOLDIER, Aerith smiled softly as she said, "Let's go~"
It wouldn't take them long to enter into the city, and once inside she'd know the way.
