The next morning turned out a whole lot better than I expected. I had to play 'Find the fire' which was not too difficult. She set the corpse on fire. I refused to put it out. I just dragged the body to the local crematory and paid for an urn. Mother sulked because I didn't put it out. Aeris awoke from her unconscious state, rubbing her head.
     "Sorry," I said.
     She dusted off her 'I -heart- the Lord' pajamas and looked over at Mother and said, "no, I'm sorry."
     Mother pulled out a sticker and put it on herself. The sticker read 'I -heart- Al Gore.' Mother really scares me sometimes, but I've always known she liked him. Aside from Sonic the Hedgehog, she loved watching anything with Al Gore. Sometimes I wondered if she ever changed the channel after I fell asleep during his long speeches.
     "Ready to go?" Vincent asked. I didn't even know he was awake.
     I'm not. I'm not dressed yet.
     Yes, Mother was dressing herself with stickers. She even put a sticker on Jimbo who was floating at the top of his bowl. Aeris went into the back room to change, and surprisingly, she didn't come back in her pink dress. Instead, she was wearing a pair of blue jeans and a purple t-shirt. I put on the same old trench coat, shoulder pads, and black pants and headed over to the mirror to fix my bangs. Aeris squeezed in next to me and began fixing her bangs in the same manner. Vincent laughed at us for having the same haircut. I threw a comb at him. It hit him between the eyes, and he decided to take a short nap until we were ready. I had to help Mother out of her stickers since she couldn't move, but she insisted that I leave one on.
     When we got outside, Vincent informed us that he had ordered for us to get another car. He also told us that we had passed the waterfall where Lucrecia stayed. We stared at a map for a while, and finally decided that we would take a route that passed near Coral so that we could go to the Gold Saucer before visiting my real mom.
     Sephy! I'm your real mom.
     "Mother, stop reading my thoughts."
     We all piled into the giant motor home that Vincent had ordered us. Vincent insisted on driving, so I got to go to the back with my two favorite people; Aeris and Mother. I went into the back and looked around. I opened the door to the bathroom and saw Red XIII in the bathtub.
     "No! You cannot come with us!" I told him harshly.
     "Please?" He replied.
     "No," came Aeris's voice from behind me. "No talking dogs. A talking dog is a walking dog. Get out." Aeris somehow picked Red up and tossed him out. Apparently Mother also put a sticker on his head before he was thrown out. I went over to the couch and sat down. Mother was thrilled. There was a TV. She turned it on and flipped through the channels.
     What!? Sephy! Where's Sonic? I always watch Sonic at this time of day. What's wrong with this- Ooh! It's Gore!
     I got up from the couch and went to find Aeris. She was in the small bedroom, jumping on the bed. I sat down and watched. It's better than Gore. She finally stopped jumping and we both headed out to the kitchen. I made Spamburgers for everyone. It was a very boring drive. We didn't even get into any random encounters since Vincent hit everything in our way. I started playing cards with Aeris, Mother, and Tiffany. I couldn't wait until we got to the Gold Saucer.
