She gave us life
Cloud had been coming here almost
everyday since returning to Midgar. Tifa had talked to him about this. She told
him that he needed to let the past go and that it was time to get on with his
life…that that was what Aeris would have wanted.
Cloud was deep in though as
he exited the church and rejoin the mess outside. He remembered Tifa's words, "…please
Cloud…this is not what she would have wanted for you…" He never saw the car
coming…
You are the light
That is leading me
"Where am I?" Cloud asked to himself. He was in a dark place,
surrounded by nothing. "What
happened to Midgar? To Tifa?…and why am I floating?"
"Cloud…" the voice came out
of nowhere; it was a female voice and it was a very soothing.
"A…Aeris? Is that you?"
Cloud asked into the darkness. "Don't worry Cloud, everything will be all right
now."
To the place
Where I find peace
again

Rinoa
ran as fast as her legs could carry her. Esthar was already a dot far in the
distance. She stopped when she finally reached the end of the continent, she
could see the sea below her; it appeared to be almost 100 feet.
"Rinoa…?" Rinoa turned
around instantly with a tear stricken face to see Squall behind her. She stared
at him for a moment not minding to wash the tears away. Suddenly she ran to him
and he embraced her in his arms.
You are the strength
That keeps me walking
"How could they do this to
me Squall? I haven't done anything…it wasn't my fault." Rinoa cried in his
arms.
"Sssshhh…" Squall said softly
as he held her tighter. "Calm down; it doesn't matter what they said…I'm here
with you now."
You are the hope
That keeps me trusting
"How could they banish me?
It wasn't my fault." Rinoa cried between sobs.
Squall put his hand under
her chin and raised her head softly to look at her. "I know that and you know
that…and it doesn't matter, because we don't need them…we only need each
other."
You are the life
To my soul
"But where will we live?"
How will we sur…"
"Hush…" Squall put a finger
over her mouth. "I'll take care of it…of everything…I'll take care of you."
Rinoa smiled at him as she put her arms around his neck and kissed him deeply.
You are my purpose
You are everything

Zidane held Garnet close to him as she hit him in the chest
with her fists. Zidane only smiled and held her closer to him.
Garnet was so mad at Zidane,
how could he do this to her. A year…an entire year without knowing if he was
dead or alive. But as she hit him, he only held her closer. She looked at him
as he caressed her hair. Garnet smiled and embraced him.
And how can I
Stand here with you
And not be move by you
The crowd was cheering at
the top of their lungs. The story of the hero of Gaia who had stayed behind had
been heard all around Alexandria. Nobody needed to tell the crowd that this was
him holding the queen in his arms.
Would you tell me
How could it be
Any better than this
Garnet looked at Zidane,
never letting go of him. "How did you survived?"
You calm the storms
You give me rest
Zidane stared at her brown
eyes "I didn't have a choice. I had to live. I had to come home to you…so I
sang your song…"
"…our song." Garnet
interrupted, finishing the sentence.
You hold me in your
hands
You won't let me fall
Zidane smiled at her words.
There was no doubt in his mind that he loved her.
He cupped her head in her
arms and kissed her for the first time.
You still my heart
And you take my breath
away
~*~*~
Cloud
could see her now; she looked even more beautiful that he could remember. He
extended his arms as he reached for her and a green light engulfed him.
Would you take me in
Would you take me
deeper now
~*~*~
Rinoa
sat in the flower garden with her daughter in her arms. She loved living at
Edea's orphanage. Here no one bothered her about being a sorceress and no one
would bother her daughter for the same heritage.
She had everything she
needed, a house, a family, freedom and a husband that loved her and would do
anything for her. Rinoa knew she would give her life for him.
'Cause you're all I
want
You are all I need
~*~*~
Garnet received the kiss with all her heart. It was the
greatest feeling she had ever felt. It seemed to last forever…
"Where's your necklace
Garnet?" Zidane asked after they broke the kiss.
"Somewhere…in the crowd."
Garnet replied happily.
"Shouldn't we go get it,
what if someone steals it?" Zidane asked concerned that Garnet could lose her
most priced possession.
"It doesn't matter…your more
important than it."
You are everything
Everything
~*~*~

Author's note: ooohhh…I
