At this point, Hercules comes to the rescue, defending the unconscious Cloud. Sora then moves in to finish the battle, giving Hercules the chance to take Cloud to safety.

Afterwards, Cloud waits at the entrance to the Coliseum, deep in thought. Sora asks him why Cloud worked for someone as shady as Hades, and Cloud replies that he was looking for someone, and tried to use the darkness to his advantage, but failed. He admits that he fell into darkness, and couldn't find the light. But Sora comforts him, saying that he too is searching for his light. Cloud then grants Sora the [[Sonic Blade]] ability, and walks off, but not before Sora offers a re-match. Cloud confidently says he'll pass, but later in the game, he can be fought in certain cups at the Olympus Coliseum. ~~ ~~

Cloud eventually manages to find Sephiroth in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Final Mix]]''. Cloud manages to locate Sephiroth in the Coliseum, and both express that they have been searching for each other. Cloud also feels that in order to awaken from his nightmare, he has to defeat his darkness; namely, Sephiroth. Sephiroth tries to convince him to turn to that darkness, but Cloud refuses, and the two battle. The outcome of the battle is unknown.

Line 74:

Cloud also aids the residents of Hollow Bastion in defending against the [[Battle of the 1000 Heartless|Heartless invasion]]. He and [[Leon]] are seen at the [[Ravine Trail]], back to back with their swords raised as Heartless surround them. The two banter playfully back and forth, then proceed to fend off the Heartless.

However, as he fights, he ends up separated from Leon, and Sephiroth makes his appearance. Cloud expresses his belief that once Sephiroth is defeated, his darkness will go away. However, Sephiroth reminds Cloud of his dark past, though it is not elaborated on. Cloud denies it, saying that Sephiroth doesn't know him, but the winged being says otherwise: "''I know. Because...I am you.''"

[[Tifa]], who had been searching fervently for Cloud, also arrives. However, her presence causes Cloud to see the light, making him wince. Sephiroth then vanishes, and Cloud runs off before Tifa can get to him.

Line 94:

Cloud seems to be notably stoic and melancholy, very different from the personality of his ''Final Fantasy VII'' counterpart. However, he does possess some similar, even more melancholic, characteristics in Advent Children. He is also seen engaging in playful banter with [[Leon]] during the 1,000 Heartless Invasion of Hollow Bastion as well, hinting at a friendly rivalry between the two.

In an interview, [~~http~~:~~//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetsuya_Nomura~~ Tetsuya Nomura] stated that while Cloud makes a big deal of looking for Sephiroth in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', he is actually running from something, the 'something warm' that Tifa was after in ''Advent Children''. It is likely that his motivations for running, a combination of guilt and worry that he will be unable to protect the people he cares about, are the same in the ''Kingdom Hearts ''universe as they were in the ''Final Fantasy ''universe.

==Appearance==

In ''Kingdom Hearts'', ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories'', and ''Kingdom Hearts coded'', Cloud has an appearance similar to his appearance in ''Final Fantasy VII''. However, he also has a flowing red cape and a metal claw on his left hand, much like [[finalfantasy:Vincent Valentine|Vincent Valentine]], another character in ''Final Fantasy VII'', though there are some notable differences. Protruding from his back is one large demonic wing, a counterpart to Sephiroth's angelic one. He also wields the [[finalfantasy:Buster Sword|Buster Sword]], though it is covered in bandages, likely a symbol of his bound self and past. Cloud is always bandaged in one way or another, and they are most likely used to resemble his personality.

In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Cloud's design changes dramatically, and is dressed in the exact same attire from ''Final Fantasy VII Advent Children'', his hair also having changed to reflect his movie counterpart's. He wields his [[finalfantasy:Fusion Swords|sword]] from ''Advent Children'' as well, though bandaged like the Buster Sword. The lines between the six separate swords look less distinct, like the lines were simply engraved on the blade, which may mean it is simply a single sword, although this could just have been to make animation easier. The wing from his previous outfit is mysteriously absent. Interestingly, Cloud's face looks similar to, if not exactly like, Sephiroth's. This is commented on by Goofy, who, when spoken to after meeting Sephiroth for the first time in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', states that Sephiroth "kinda looks like Cloud."
