The city is bustling but it still doesn't compare to Midgar. He tries not to think of it too much but the comparisons keep coming to his mind. The more he thinks about it the less he's paying attention to his surroundings until he almost walks into a nearby trash can. To his surprise a little fox like pokemon jumps out and runs off into the distance before he can even grab his pokedex to figure out what it was.

"Doof!" Brodoof the bidoof starts to wiggle in his arms until Zack puts him down so he can scurry to the trash can and check it out. His mimikyu tugs on his ear asking to be put down as well.

As he's standing he hears a voice, a voice that's been haunting his dreams ever since he arrived. At first he thinks it's in his mind. He's here with a second chance at life, Cloud has no reason to be here with him and while he knows he's hearing things he can't help but turn to the sound.

Eyes as bright and blue as the sky widen. "...Cloud?" He's pretty sure his heart stopped for a moment as he tries to rationalize how he can be here and if maybe he's really gone crazy. The vision before him isn't fading and is instead getting closer. His legs move on his own until he's quickly catching up to Cloud to embrace his smaller man in his arms. He needs to feel him, needs to hear him, he needs to make sure this is real.

"Cloud? Is...Is it really you?"
