Chapter 1: The Grin
"Life the one thing people can regret so many things at once."
I stand on the edge of the cliff looking into the depth of the ocean. The wind blew my short blonde spikey hair away from my face. The sun was slowly appearing to meet up with my blue and green eyes. My body relaxed when I felt comfort from the environment. The sky was changing its color as I let my thoughts wonder through my mind. Letting some of them erase and letting the others stay.
In far distance my friend waits for me to join him. In a low whisper, "Friend, we became friends after we were once enemies." A dull smile appeared on to my face. I suddenly took a quick turn and let out a sigh of relief. I manage to slip back and fall the edge. I closed my eyes like if it would be the last day of my life. I opened my eyes to see a grin on my friend's face, while he kept a tight grip of my hand. He pulled me and nodded. "Be careful Cloud or you could lose your life", my friend told me in a mysterious voice.
"My name is Cloud Strife and this is a new beginning to a new start." I said faintly. My arm hurts from being snagged when my friend caught me. All I could do is ignore the pain. I've noticed a few scratches on my arm but luckily there was no blood. I didn't bother to dust myself off but instead I patted his shoulder and headed towards the cycles. Couldn't help but stare at the broadsword with an eyeful of designs. "We should get rid of this. After all this does brings out the worse in us all." Picking up the broadsword then slamming it blade first into the ground. Clapped my hands together then jumped on the cycle. I can feel the wind blow once again as I placed my goggles over my eyes. I looked over to my side to see what my friend could be doing. It seems like he could have been chanting but I could never ask.
As he finishes what he started, he started to run over to the cycles. Taking a quick glance at the sword with disbelief. I looked forward to see where this road could take us from here. My body tensed up just a little as I turned on the cycle and leaned forward. Then a quick image of his grin came to my mind when I left him behind. I shouted out, "C'mon before the sun gets fully out. We have a job to do!"
