Story[]
Avalanche intends to use the Sister Ray to destroy Midgar as a message to the Shinra Electric Power Company. As Reno leads a contingent of Shinra troops against Avalanche's street forces, the Player Turk enters the cannon facility from an underground passageway. Coming across the sight of a massacre at the control room's entrance, the cannon is mysteriously turned off before the Turk gets to the control panel.
Mistaken for the being responsible for the massacre, the Player Turk is attacked by Elfe but Sephiroth intervenes and is impressed she can defend herself against him. Elfe and Avalanche retreat.
