Sephy: Alright, I'll confess. I wasn't 100% happy with how my second try of this story was. So here I am, trying this again! A warning to you all, if you HATE OCs, this is not the story for you.

Disclaimer: If I actually owned Square Enix, Versus XIII and Kingdom Hearts 3 would be out, and a sequel to Dirge of Cerberus would be out with Genesis as the main character.

Goodbye Slums, Hello SOLDIER

Chapter 1

Living in the Slums for most of your life isn't fun, let me tell you that. Well, better for others than me, Michiko Suzume. Lets just say, I'm different in a way that makes everyone hate me. I look like a normal 19 year old girl. Shoulder length brown hair, pretty blue eyes. The thing that puts everyone one off is the wings. Yes everyone, wings. They're the colour of fluffy clouds, which is of course white.

Also having no family isn't fun either. My parents died protecting me from someone strong, who killed them almost instantly. I don't remember who it was, all I remember hearing was the word 'Jenova'. I have no idea who this person is, or even what.

I was walking down the streets of the dirty slums one day, getting the disgusted looks I get everyday. Hearing people whisper "Look it's that freak," can really get you down. Sadly, I have gotten far to used to that. I hide my wings in my black jacket, that matches my white t-shirt and black skirt.

"Ow!" I cried when something very hard hit the back of my head. "Who in the name of Gai-" I started saying before letting my mouth drop to the floor.

There was screaming everywhere. Kids were running to their parents from the presence of the biggest monster I have ever seen.

"What the hell is that?!" I thought in a hurry, because in the next second, I was dodging out of the way or I would've lost my head. The monster was huge. No one could ever defeat this thing, maybe the SOLDIERs from Shin-Ra could though.

"Get to shelter!" I yelled behind me, worried for everyone who basically hated everything about my presence and who I am.

"Why should we listen to you?!" I heard a woman yell at me, anger in her voice.

"Look, do you all want to die?" I screamed a little bit too loud, since the monster growled and loud footsteps were coming towards me.

Crap.

I retaliated fast. I sent a powerful turning kick to what turned out to be the monster's overly large head...and sent it flying backwards, screaming in pain.

"What the hell...?" I muttered out loud. I was not expecting that to happen. I also wasn't expecting the monster to have freaking wings and start flying right at me.

"Shit!" I yelled as I discarded my jacket and soared into the air, my large white wings going as fast as the could. I was now dodging countless Thunder attacks that were coming out of no where. Right about then, I really wanted to know magic. I charged in towards the monster, punching and kicking it as fast as I could. Then, the monster started to cast Fire upon Fire spells, and I did something stupid. I flew backwards, knowing I wasn't going to win.

That's when two fireballs hit me in both on my wings, sending me head first into the cold, hard ground. I looked up to see a blurry monster getting ready to kill me there an then. "No..I can't give up...," I basically whispered in pain. Everything went black, but before that, all I saw was lots of silver. Lots and lots of silver.

I groaned to wake up to a completely brand new scenery. It looked like a apartment. I tried to sit up, but it failed miserably as my hand gave way, making me fall onto something very soft. I turned my head slightly to the right to see the back of a sofa. "That's odd," I thought, very confused. "Since when was I in apartment?"

"Looks like your angel is awake," I heard a man say which caught me off guard. I sat up quickly to see three men I never though I would ever meet in my life.
