I Swore...
When I first saw that flower girl, I knew she was special. Her name was Aeris…She was innocent, with those emerald eyes, brown hair, and pink dress.Only I didn't know how really special she really was.
Now that I think about it, I shouldn't have brought her along on my journey. I regret it. If I could go back in time now, I would have just saved her from Reno and that was it. She wouldn't have to go to the Shinra HQ. She wouldn't have to do anything. She would just be in Midgar, with her mother.
I remember that day clearly when she disappeared. I saw her praying in the altar, praying to the Holy. Then I saw him. Sephiroth. He came down, the Masamune in his hand, a malicious grin spread across his face. The sword plunged into her chest. He removed the massive sword from her chest as Aeris's body fell to the ground.
When I saw Sephiroth, I was beyond infuriated. I couldn't even explain it. It was a mixture of the two strongest emotions, sadness and anger. Sephiroth looked at me and still smiled. I was trembling with anger, my eyes watering. But he continued to smile before disappearing, leaving Jenova for us to fight.
I took my rage on Jenova, using every last ounce of my anger to fuel me in the battle. I didn't care what injuries it gave me; I just kept on slashing until it fell down, dead. It was then I realized my sadness again.
I walked up to Aeris's lifeless body in the altar and picked it up gently, letting her blood stain my hands and clothing. I looked at her beautiful face. She had a smile on her face…But she was dead, and she died because she wanted to save the planet. I couldn't do anything about it. Without a word, I passed my friends and slowly walked into the water. I released her body from my hands and watched as she flowed down, deeper and deeper until she disappeared completely.
Sephiroth…he took away my home…now he took away one of the people I cared most about…
I would not forgive him…
I swore that I would have revenge on him, whatever it took…
Author's Notes: Okay, I suck I titles, flame me about it. I also think this fic is…bad. I wrote this in about 20 minutes or so. This idea just kept on etching at me and I just wrote just for the heck of it. Turned out horrible, no? If you want to read one of my better FF7 works then read Flames of Rebirth…
