Disclaimer: Final Fantasy VII
and its characters doesn't belong to me because I'm not worthy at owning such a
popular game. I've just been introduced to it and now I'm hooked so I'm writing
this for my enjoyment and during my free time. ^_^
Warnings: I don't like Aeris…I don't like her
at all so go away all you 100% Aeris fans because I really despise her from her
hair, down to those weird looking boots of hers. I bash her at times but not
that bad. I like her a teensy bit…out of 100, I'd say I like her about 17%
because she has nice qualities so I MIGHT not bash her…depends on my mood.

Students crowded through the halls
as the famous basketball team walked through with winning smiles. A wide grin
etched across their lovely faces would make any girl swoon with one glance. Six
boys were further ahead from the rest for they were the "leaders" and anyone
who crossed them admired their confidence and determination.
"And I think I'm going to be sick."
A young brunette not too far away, said. She shoved a bunch of folders into her
locker and watched as the crowds of onlookers followed their "worthy kings".
Her friend giggled and stared at one player with hair the color of fire, pulled
back into a ponytail.
"I think he's cute."
"And you're making me sick too,
Yuffie. I have no idea what you see in my brother. He's a player and I
personally think he isn't your type."
"But look at him! He's so sweet and
gorgeous…" She sighed.
"And downright stupid," She popped a
piece of bubblegum into her mouth and began chewing.
"Hey Tifa, you know you can get sent
after school for detention for chewing gum, right?"
"Who's going to send to me?" Tifa
ruffled her own hair and put her hand back at her side.
"Me." A tall man wearing a lab coat
tapped her on the shoulder and pierced her with his gray eyes, covered in
spectacles.
"Man, second week back at school and
I get detention. Why is life so unfair?" She grabbed the books she needed and
left the hall and into her first period class. She took her original seat,
which was in the front, right in front of the teacher's desk. She had put there
for evident reasons. Tifa took out her favorite pencil, which clicked every
time she twirled it and her notebook.
Soon, in came six of the basketball
players and took their own seats, each talking to one another about how their
recent game was a huge hit. Tifa gagged inwardly as their constant
conversations annoyed her.
"Class," A woman started. She had
eyes the color of emeralds and hair the color of cherry. Her glasses were set
on her desk, which she picked up. "Turn to page 173 in your textbooks and do
the questions. You've got half of the period so I expect you to be finished by
then."
This teacher wasn't your average
kind. Her looks fooled anyone. She was as sweet as candy, yet she had a certain
enigma to her that only Vincent Valentine knew.
::Let me inform you that the
certified law not to have a student and teacher relationship has now
been disregarded. Vincent Valentine and Ms. Lucrecia Kingston are now an
official couple, according to my standards and most of the juniors and seniors.
::I should introduce you to the people I know so well and others I don't like as much and myself, shouldn't I? Okay, my name is Tifa Lockhart. I'm 17 years old and I'm a junior in Highgrounds. I'm a good athlete so I don't care which sport I play as long as it's competitive. My dad always said that being competitive is what makes your life interesting. I don't know where he heard that but it must have some dork, because it's not fun. You could say I fall into the 'popular' category but I prefer to hang around my friends than to be surrounded by total idiots, which of course the basketball players don't mind because they love getting attention so their humongous egos can bloat even more.
Yuffie Kisaragi would be considered
my best friend. She's loyal and she studies…a lot. It scares me because any
more studying and I'm afraid her eyes are going to pop out of their sockets. A
nickname I call her by is Yui. One, because I like the name and two, those
letters are found in her name. Sounds pathetic but it's true. Yui is all cutesy
around my brother, Reno Distasteful. Not really his last name but I don't like
him, although he keeps saying that I, Tifa Lockhart, is his favorite girl…not
in that sense of course. I'm not like that.
Cloud Strife, the normal babe
magnet. What can I say about him? I sure don't know what because I'm not
attracted to him. Let's see…what's so good about him that makes girls want to
date him? He's got that cute blonde hair, those intense cerulean eyes, that
athletic build, and that he's a good kisser. Shortly put, they like him for his
physical appearance and because he's a good kisser.
Reno Lockhart. Your typical,
average, fool. Well, in my eyes he is. To others, however, he's also the
ladies' man. A good attraction at our house. Now I know the reason behind all
those parties. Our parents died awhile back so now he's my legal guardian,
which is evident that my life sucks as hell.
Vincent Valentine. Very mysterious
and very cute. Now this is what I call the man of my dreams…not! Besides, he's
taken by Ms. Kingston, a teacher at my school. She's my English teacher and I
think she's nice but believe me, she isn't at all what she's cut out to be.
Sephiroth Lovell. Quite the quiet,
yet popular type. His girlfriend would be Aeris Gainsborough. I'll explain all
about her later but this Sephiroth, whom I love to call Sephy, is my favorite.
He treats me like a real sister and he's basically the one that
introduced me to the other idiots.
Zack Strife. Brother of Cloud's and
dashing as well. I'm wondering where they get their looks…because I want to
know where they get their brains. They don't seem to have much intelligence. I
can't really say that because I don't even know them all that well, but I'm, as
you can tell, biased. It's a bad way to be but I picked up that habit from my
brother, unfortunately. Can you believe that Reno and I have the same genes?
Cid Highwind…aha! Now this is one
boy that I like! He's foul-mouthed and very outspoken. That's what I love about
this guy! We get along quite well and during class hours, we go to the
principal's office and just spy for the cheap thrill of it all. He's like my
second best friend…we're almost alike that it's uncanny.
Aeris Gainsborough, a cheerleader of
Highgrounds. Smart and just plain loveable! …It just makes me wanna gag. But
asides all that, I think she's a nice person. We're getting along quite well
since we're partnered up in this project in P.E. class.
Okay, so all of us sit at the same
seat at lunch. Only ones "worthy" of sitting at the table are able to sit. I
don't know how these guys possessed it but oh well. As long as I don't feel
inferior to the morons, then I'm quite fine. I'm sure that my life is pretty
interesting…considering how fucked up it all is. You'll see why.::

Notes: It sucked so bad as my first but I tried, right? Anyway, this was just the
prologue as you can tell, which just introduced the characters and such…or some
of them at least. More of them will come at my other chapter. Thanks for
reading if you're reading this. Please review and tell me how bad or good it
is. Constructive criticism if you please. No flames or I'll whack you all with
my stuffed bunny. …Or maybe not… ^^;;
