Side Chapter Tifa and Cloud

Cloud's P.O.V
"Ha-ah " I brought down my sword slashing through a goblin and blocking an attack from one of the many goblins that showed up, I look behind me at Tifa to see how she was holding up she thankfully it didn't look like she needed any of my help as she just slammed a swamp goblin down into the ground so hard that it burst into blue pixels before she grabbed another one and threw into the one that was coming up from my side. "That was a close one"

"Yeah it was" I turned my head facing the next goblin jumping towards me but I side stepped it so leaded face down taking my sword I stabbed down into it and moved on to the next few ones on my side while she did her's and in about 3 or 4 minutes of fighting we took them all down.

We were a bit worn out due to how many there were so we took a short break before collecting the items they dropped none were really all that useful so we figured that once we make it to a town we'll sell it to an NPC and get a good amount of gil for it.
"How far til the next town?" Tifa asked over from her log, I went checked out the map and saw a town not too far from where we are as I was about to close it Tifa stopped me by pointing out a blue bleeping dot. "Doesn't that mean that a player needs help?"

I tried recalling if it does or not. "I think"

"Then we should go see if we can help" Tifa got up from her log.

"It could be a trap" I brought up not really wanting to run into a dark player's trap, I remember hearing about how this place was swarming with them even though that would be just as dangerous for them on their part the dark forest wasn't really the safest place on this floor level.

"But what if it isn't? Whoever it is could really be in need of help " knowing Tifa she wasn't going to just leave without checking to see if they really did need help first so I decided to agree with her rather than argue but we are going to make sure from a distance before making our presences known.
We set out to where the blue dot was but by the time we get there it already vanishes. "It's gone" Tifa checks her's too.

"Where did it go?" she refreshed it a few times before deciding that it wasn't coming back up so she closed it. "That might mean that someone came by and helped them or that they were able to handle it themselves or they didn't make it " I listed off a few of the possibilities but Tifa shook her head.

"Let's be sure" I nodded as we walked a few more feet and looked down from the mini hall we are on and saw five players and a Friendly-NPC the players were talking to other player that was sitting on a log looking like she was wiping off sweat, they didn't talk for long due to the girl running off into a darker looking area of the forest, the other players didn't want to follow after her.

It didn't look like they needed our help now so I tapped Tifa on the shoulder and gestured my head. "Let's go" I whispered to Tifa who nodded in return as we went back to heading for a nearby town to rest up at and after walking long enough we made it to one which then we went over to the closest inn when we walked over to the front desk waiting behind a small group of players while waiting behind them we heard the NPC at the front desk tell the player that they were out of rooms.

"Damn it Zack's brother and his friends must have taken the last rooms" The red haired guy that was besides the bald one complained and once I heard that there was no need to be here since there are no more rooms so Tifa and I went to go look for another place to stay at which thankfully we found with little to no problem and spent the night there resting up before morning came, we went to go sell the items we didn't need before looking for our next quest.

"How about this one?" I pointed at a quest that needed help with Fire Goblins, Tifa looked over and read the info. "Sure" Tifa tossed her food wrapper in the trash next to her then we headed to the exit gate as we were nearing it Tifa tapped my shoulder and gestured her head over to a chocobo stand. "Wanna rent one for the quest?" I thought about how it would help us get to our quest faster. "Okay" we headed over to the NPC renting them.
