Disclaimer: I do not own Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VIII, or Lord of the Rings. If I did, Squall would've never met Riona in the first place and he definitely would not have fallen in love with her, slut that she is! Cloud would've never fallen for Tifa, he would've remained true to Aerith's memories and as for Frodo, well, he would've died by m- er, Sauron's hands long ago!

My name is Zerodyme. Here in the kingdoms of Middle Earth, I aspire to rule. Every race here knows me as the Dark Lord Sauron's Black Hand, also known as the infamously cruel Dark Lady. But, in order to conquer the world I so desire I must first defeat my so-called master. But, I would need so much help. Thus, my current spell. Drawing from the power of the ring wraths under my control I was going to open a portal and snatch the first truly powerful person I saw. One who's ideals closely matched my own.

I began chanting my spell and the first thing I saw was a blonde and a silver haired man trying their best to kill each other. But it was the silver-haired man who caught my attention. "Tell me what you hold dear, Cloud. So, I may have the pleasure of ripping it away with my own hands. "

I grinned mischievously and chuckled. He sounded like me! I saw the blonde one coming in for a killing blow so I grabbed my newest toy.

Everyone blinked, rather surprised, "Where the hell did he go?!" yelled Cid.

Cloud blinked, "I know my Omnislash technique is powerful, but was he supposed to disappear?"

"So… Does this mean.. We won?" Reno asked grinning, brightly.

"Yay, party!" Yuffie cheered, happily.

Meanwhile…

Sephoroth glared at the pale woman in front of him. "Why did you interrupt my fight?! I intend to destroy that planet!" he said rather angry

I just smirked, "I have been watching you for quite some time now. You will destroy their world… I shall even help you do so… But first would you hear me out, my good sir? I am extremely close to ruling this world… Only one thing stands in my way. "

Sephoroth stood, eyeing her, allowing the woman to continue.

"My so called master, The Dark Lord Sauron." I moved to the curtains to show him the mountain. "I am second-in-command under his unholy influence. I rule everything but that mountain. Here you may do exactly as you please and no one would dare say a damn thing if you said it was done in my or Sauron's name. Kill, plunder, do as you wish. I shall keep rooms for you here at the castle that once belonged to a powerful wizard known as Saruman the Grey. "

Chapter Interlude: Portal Mishaps Part one. Final Fantasy VIII

I grinned as I opened yet another portal, since Sephoroth was a HUGE help, I decided to do it again!

It opened to a tall, brown haired man doing 9,999 points of damage 100 times. I stared in shock and awe at his power.

"What's that one lead to?" Sephoroth asked.

I shut the portal extremely quickly, "No where of any importance." I said smiling. "I don't fancy getting killed, thanks." I thought to myself.
