Head over to Rocket Town now. If you didn't get the Fourth Bracelet from the Weapon Shop, and the Guard Source from the Item shop earlier, do so now. Head to the Rocket, and as you do, Cid will join your party if he isn't already in it.  Beat the several attack squads and climb up. Here you'll meet Rude again, plus an attack squad.
Make sure you steal his Ziedrich, a great and rare armor!

Rude is more of a nuisance that anything, but he *can* be rather fast. Cast Big Guard and keep this up throughout the entire fight, and make *sure* you steal the Ziedrich armor from Rude – which is extremely good and rare.

|Strategy: Kill off the Attack Squad first, then make sure you steal the       |
|Ziedrich from Rude! After this, use Big Guard to cut down the damage from his |
|Grand Spark attack. Use strong attacks to finish him off. This should be a    |
|breeze for you.                                                               |

When you get inside, beat the grunt, then go inside. Here, a few scenes will happen.. and FAT-ASS Palmer launches the rocket! What the hell.. did he just awaken from his crash with the truck or what? Anyway.. you'll now have to go to the right and climb up to the Huge Materia. You'll have to imput a code in order to unlock the materia.. This code is O, Square, X, X. Cid will also give hints if you try to unlock it on your own. Now go back to the cockpit, and from there all the way down until a scene happens. After that, follow Shera, and you'll get to see another flashy scene followed by some more. When you gain back control, head back to Rocket Town again and talk to the Old Man three times. He'll give you the Venus Gospel, Cid's Ultimate Weapon (now if he just gave that straight away..oh man!).
