Chapter 40: : Do I Have To?
Summary: Aerith is a lot more worried than she lets everyone see, but maybe, at last, she's found a solution.
She didn't need to worry. Not about Zack's safety and not about the anger he felt, either. She'd known it was there; had felt it behind his "jokes" about killing Hojo.
No, what worried her was Zack's belief that someday he'd turn into a monster, too.
