Final Fantasy VII: The Side of Evil

FanFic About Sephiroth

I do no own Final Fantasy 7, or any of the other games, but I do enjoy to write about them. Please enjoy my first fan fiction about them. Feel free to review, but I will not accept flames or anything! Save rude comments for the mind only. If you enjoy the story, feel free to review all you would like. If you get lost while reading or don't know where the places are, I have a link of the map for the area. That is the best I can do though for pointing out where they are heading. ;;

Also, this story is mostly focusing on Sephiroth, however, there will probably be a few sways towards Cloud and Tifa, even though it doesn't focus on them, though they are hunting Sephiroth (Just note that please, instead of only wanting it to be able them), Aeris is dead (Sorry to fans of her. Even though she was an amazing healer in the game), and maybe a character for Vincent. But, like I said, this is mostly about Sephiroth. :3 Once again, please read and enjoy.

Please use the map in my profile as a reference if you get lost following where the characters are.



Chapter 1: Whereabouts

Currently wondering around in Yuffie's village, Wutai, Cloud and Tifa sat down by the red bridge leading towards the fire mountain. Cloud was frustrated on why they could not seem to find any leads on Sephiroth. Tifa on the other hand, was worried about Cloud and his memories.

Red XIII walked out of the restaurant behind them and looked over at them. 'They seem to be having more and more issues… I bet Cloud is still thinking about Aeris too… He couldn't protect her… And he's probably still sulking over that… Tifa… She's going through a hard time thinking that Cloud likes Aeris… But, really… He's feeling guilty… Not the kind of guilt a lover feels… Not like what Vincent feels…'

Cloud looked back to see his red, fiery, cat friend. "Hey, Red."

"Hello Cloud. You guys… find any leads on Materia yet?"

The blond looked down and shook his head. "None… Sorry if I'm disappointing you guys…"

"Ah. Don't blame yourself Cloud!" Tifa jumped in. "It is not your fault!"

Cloud smiled over to Tifa. She could tell it was a fake one, but none the less, she smiled back.

"How about you two go to the inn and get some sleep?" Vincent suggested.

"Yeah! The rest of us will search around for any clues leading to Materia. Besides, you guys do look exhausted," Yuffie said with a concerned look.

Tifa looked at Cloud. "Please, Cloud? I wouldn't want to worry later about you being exhausted. And I most certainly don't want you stressing yourself out…"

His eyes connected with Tifa's, and looked deep into them. In those eyes you could clearly read worry and sadness. Cloud didn't want Tifa to be sad… Not one bit. He smiled again. "Sure… A nap sounds like a good thing."

Tifa and Cloud stood up and Yuffie and the rest followed them to the inn. They paid for a few rooms, but met up in one.

"Here's what is going on," Yuffie began. "Red, Vincent, and I will go north from here and scan the coast. Cid, Barrett, and Cait Seith, will go south and so forth. From there, we'll all meet back here and discuss what we found out and plan our next move from there."

"Sounds good to me," Cloud yawned.

"Alright guys. Move out," Tifa said with a smile.

They left in a hurry, well, Yuffie's group anyway. Yuffie was really interested about finding Materia. It ran in her blood after all. Barrett's group slowly began to leave town. Tifa stood at the window, looking out.

'Cloud… If there was just some way we could get you to remember everything… I know you're the real you… Maybe you just got your memory mixed… Maybe during training you got hit on the head… Or maybe… Your memories were created… By Sephiroth…'

"Hey Tifa," Cloud began, snapping her from her deep thoughts.

"Yeah?"

Cloud blushed as he looked down. "Would you… hold me until I fall asleep…?"

Tifa blushed, but looked back at Cloud. Gazing at him blushing, he reminded her of a little kid who wanted to be held by his mother until he fell asleep. "Gladly," She said walking over to him. She sat on the bed beside him, and he cuddled up to her, falling asleep quickly between her breasts. They were comfortable, and her scent was soothing. It was the first time he ever got to feel so relaxed with her alone. As she smiled at him, she began to play with his hair, running her fingers through it in a soothing way.

'I think… this is the closest we've ever been, dear Cloud… I hope it will never be the last…' She leaned down gently and kissed his forehead, then continued to stroke his head, while gazing out the window.

On the far south eastern side of the continent, a figure washed up on shore. She had long black hair with electric blue highlights, and rough, jagged bangs. Her clothes were certainly strange, but within final fantasy, nothing is ever too strange. She had on black tripp pants that flared out from the knees down, and a grey kimono top that had sleeves too long for the girl. The sleeves went down to her knees as well, but the kimono's lower portion cut off on the right side after the sash, and then trailed off towards the ground on the left.

The waves crashed on the shore a few more times against the pale girl's body. Growling was heard around her, as wolves began to walk forward towards her.

'It's food!' The Alpha thought.

'Food, food! Finally! I'm starved!' A few others mourned.

'Back off!' The Alpha snarled. 'I get first dibs.' With that, the shaggy, scarred wolf began to pace forward.

"I… am not… Food!!!" The girl snarled as her blood-red eyes flashed open. Her fangs grew a bit, as she quickly leapt into the air, and then landed down in a heart beat.

The Alpha tilted his head at the girl, but soon began to yelp along with his pack, as the ground began to shake violently. It was Quake. The demon-mutt had cast it to spook them off with it's low accuracy and chance to 1-hit. It seemed to have worked too. Without hesitating, they ran off with their tails between their legs.

"So… Where am I…?" She questioned, falling down from weakness. Her red eyes had gone back to normal, along with her fangs. One eye however, still remained red. The other was an icy blue. It was a symbol of two differences within her. One personality, the red eyes, came forth when she was willing to kill. The blue came when she was more towards healing… or even rarer… Innocence. Blue eyes were often used to deceive people when needed. Both the sides understood each other, and also worked together at times. Their goal was the same.

Her eyes gazed around the beach as she snorted. "Way to go, Kit," She chuckled. "I'm lost!" As she stood up, she quickly froze. The air. It carried something important to her. Kit turned her head to the north as she muttered silently, "Sephiroth…" Without a second thought, and as though hypnotized, she stood up and began walking north towards Yuffie's hometown, Wutai.

It had been a few hours since Cloud had been asleep. Tifa had continued to be at his side while he slept. She felt that his strength was important to maintain, seeing as he was the backbone of the group, and the one who wanted to take out Sephiroth most of all. If something happened to him now, who knows what would become of everyone.

'Cloud…' She thought smiling down at him, fixing to fall asleep herself, when he finally opened his eyes.

"Did you stay awake this whole… time?" He asked smiling at her.

"… Yes." She smiled back.

"You didn't have to. I feel bad now… You didn't get any sleep…"

"No, Cloud. That's alright. Really," Tifa reassured.

They looked at the doorway to see that Red, Vincent, and Yuffie had returned.

"Hey guys. We didn't interrupt anything, did we?" Yuffie teased.

"Heh. No. Not at all," Tifa said blushing as she placed her hand in front of her mouth and smiled.

"Are we ready to go? We heard rumors of a black caped man heading to the north of this continent, and going south west to the temple where he got the black materia from," Vincent spoke softly.

"Why would he want to go back there?" Cloud asked sitting up from the bed.

"Who knows. Cloud, we're dealing with a weirdo, ya know!" Yuffie said in a matter-o-factly way.

"Like she's one to talk," Red teased.

"Hey!" Yuffie shouted as Red, Cloud, Tifa, and even Vincent, laughed light-heartedly.

The group waited in the lobby for Barret, Cid, and Cait Seith. When the three of them arrived the whole group set off.

"Did you guys find anything?" Cloud asked.

"No…" Cid muttered, having come across three scared wolves, but not knowing why they ran right past the group instead of attacking.

"Alright. Well, we're heading for Mideel then," Cloud stated. "Vincent, Yuffie, and Red found some information on Sephiroth there. So then we head for the air ship then."

Just like that, the group was heading for Mideel with hopes of finding this black caped man, Sephiroth. On the other hand, a mysterious girl was also looking for Sephiroth. But what were her intentions? The group would eventually find out… Maybe even once they arrived at Mideel.

I hope you enjoyed my first chapters of many. There seems to be a lot to edit. So if you didn't understand something, then feel free to let me know. I would be most happy to explain the chapters. Please, once again, feel free to comment. Just no flames. Thank you, and please look forward to many more chapters. It is only the beginning.
