Crossing the River

     Our party of myself, Aeris, Vincent, Mother, and Tiffany continued onward in the station wagon with no radio. But who needs radio when Mother and Aeris both know the dirtiest version of 'Ninety-nine Bottles of Beer on the Wall' to ever exist? I didn't know that song had a dirty version. We got out of the canyon and started crossing that little river at the shallow section. Mother had a great idea to help us cross. Open the doors. She opened the two back doors and got enough water in the car to wake Vincent up. Then, she released Tiffany, a fresh-water fish, into the salty ocean. I was forced to find the deceased Tiffany who was floating somewhere in the ocean while Aeris searched through my suitcase for my Life materia.
     "Hey! Sephiroth! Nice undies!"
     What? You thought she would look for materia? I knew she wouldn't. She just wanted a reason to look at my underwear. I found Tiffany, threw her in my pocket, and started to head back to the station wagon when I noticed the station wagon had come to me.
     Sephiroth! The car can swim! I just pulled what Aeris called the "parking brake" and it started swimming. And look! It already knows how to go underwater.
     "Dammit Mother. I already told you to sit still and wait for me to get Tiffany. Vincent! Help me get the car before it sinks completely."
     "Don't worry about it Seph," Vincent replied strangely, "I'll get it myself."
     This was good enough for me. I went back to the shore and sat next to Mother, and Aeris sat in my lap... Did I not kill this woman once before!? She didn't even think twice about sitting on her one-time assassin. Vincent sure did get that car. He turned into that Chaos thing, flew above it, and carried it out to the shore. Afterwards, he transformed himself into a sleeping human while I attempted to start the car.
     You know Tiffany pulled the "parking brake" Sephy. Not me.
     "Mother! Tiffany is dead! She was dead when you pulled the parking brake. She's still in my pocket."
     Oh yeah? Then what's that in her bowl?
     Yep. Some other fish was in her bowl. Probably trapped in there while Vincent got the car. I found Tiffany's old bowl, filled it with a bottle of warm Crystal Geyser, and dropped the dead Tiffany in. I found my Revive materia and used Life 2 on her. Tiffany was back.
     "That's Tiffany, Mother. See?"
     Oh, yeah, I already knew that. But did you meet my other fish? His name is Jimbo.
     Jimbo was a large deformed fish that was floating at the top of his bowl.
     "Mother, I think Jimbo is dead."
     No he's not! He's sleeping! And keep your effing voice down, you'll wake him!
     I ignored Mother and got into the driver's seat of the car. Aeris dragged the sleeping Vincent into the car and again moved herself into the passenger seat. I started up the car, but it was flooded and wouldn't start.
     "Well, it's dead," I told everyone, and by everyone, I mean Aeris.
     It must have been those damn gremlins! I've heard about them. They're good eatin'!
     "Mother, you don't even have a mouth. Why do you always think about food?
     I have no mouth so I'm really hungry all the time. I can eat though, but I won't tell you how I do it.
     "You know Mother, if you're hungry, eat Jimbo."
     No! Not my favorite son Jimbo. And you're not to speak of his death again!
