Lucky for Heather, Zack was no scientist, either. And he was still of the opinion that this was a downright grand idea.

"Haven't seen a Beedrill yet myself, but I'm sure it's nothing I can't handle." ... What with the Behemoths and the demi-god summons. Then again, he had no Buster... no materia.

"We oughtta be fine. Hell, if things go sour, we could always just... run away."

But running away was for wusses and suckers. He'd definitely have to get in a few good hits (since he promised Rise he'd do it) before retreating like a pansy.
