Summary: Hojo invites Lucrecia, Sephiroth and Jenova to a family reunion along with a very pissed off Vincent and a confused Cloud.
Family Reunion!
Chapter One: Sephiroth gets an invitation
If someone passed him at the moment, they would guess that Sephiroth was a man who was at peace with himself. The silver haired SOLDIER was seated serenely on a boulder, his long sword propped up behind him. His eyes were closed and he was breathing easily, completely relaxed and without a care in the world. After all, soon he would summon Meteor and everything would be destroyed, all for his mother.
"Excuse me, sir," a loud voice said.
Sephiroth's brilliant eyes snapped open as the peace was shattered. He glared at the pudgy man standing before him. The man was smiling with a goofy grin and holding out an envelope.
"Are you Sephiroth?" the man asked.
"Yes," Sephiroth answered quickly, his hand straying to his masamune.
"This is from some guy who happened to stop me back at Costa Del Sol," said the fat man. "He wanted you to have it right away."
"Just give it to me, you fool," Sephiroth ordered, snatching the envelope away.
"You shouldn't be impolite to people, sir," pouted the man.
Sephiroth grabbed his sword and the man let out a frightened squeal. "Is that right?" Sephiroth asked a cruel smile on his face.
"W-wait a minute!" the man screamed tripping over his feet and landing on the ground. "Don't kill me!"
Sephiroth blinked once and sighed. "You'll be dead soon anyway," he said, deciding not to bloody his sword with this pathetic waste of skin's blood.
He got up from the boulder and walked away from the sputtering man. Once the fat loser was out of sight, Sephiroth glanced at the envelope for the first time, a slight frown on his face.
Who on earth would send me a letter? He thought.
He shrugged and opened it. His frown increased steadily to a scowl and he crumpled the letter up and threw it to the ground.
"That fool," he hissed.
He glanced at the crumpled letter again and sighed. He bent down and picked it up, reading it once more.
Sephiroth,
How are you? I am writing to you on behalf of the family gathering I wish to hold here at the Gold Saucer. I hope you can find time to take a break from your busy schedule and join us. I know destroying the world is important to you and all, but surely one weekend off won't kill you (or the rest of the planet). I hope you will come because the others will be there.
Ciao
Hojo
"What others?" Sephiroth asked the letter as though it would answer him.
He sighed and looked up at the sky. A large meteor should have been falling by now. He shook his head and decided that he would go to this reunion. Going would give him the chance he needed to kill Hojo and the thought of killing the scientist made Sephiroth once more feel calm, cool and collected.
"The Gold Saucer, eh?" he said to himself. "I hate that place…"
Silent Dagger: yeah, I know it's short, but it's just an introductory chapter, as will the next couple of chapters. So just be patient because it will get better.
