"When Fate Intervenes"

Prologue: Tifa's Journey. Meeting another One Winged Angel

Author's note: I do not own Final Fantasy 7 or the characters in this story. This takes place during Advent Children, goes through Dirge of Cerberus, and from there. This is a GenesisxTifa fan fiction. So, do not read it if you don't approve. Also, don't sue me people who own ff7 because I do not have any money and therefore you will receive none. This is for entertainment only. Now, on to the fanfic and enjoy.

Tifa sat in the bar waiting for Cloud to return with Denzel and Marlene, but was extremely concerned about Cloud due to how easily she was defeated by Loz. 'I can't sit around while he is possibly getting hurt. He is not in his right state of mind if this has something to do with Sephiroth.,' Tifa's mind screamed as she heard a knock on the door. She made her way to her door and opened it roughly. "WE ARE..," She started to yell, but notice Reno and Rude. "Hiya pretty lady!," Reno exclaimed smiling a goofy smile. "What do you idiots want now?," Tifa asked with an annoyed tone. "President Rufus sent us here with these items to give to you and ask you to perform a simple task for us if you could please," Reno said handing her a phoenix feather, a mastered phoenix materia, and the final attack materia. "What task would that be? This isn't some weird experiment that Rufus is not sure will work is it?,"Tifa asked placing a gloved hand on her hip. "It is a theory, but it was proven true by a report done by Professor Crescent. She was performing an experiment when something went wrong and the subject died. She used these three items as told in the Ancients' books and the subject was revived. We want you to travel to an area where an ex first class soldier died and revive him. He is possibly someone Sephiroth, if revived, would not expect to see alive. He could also assist Cloud in this battle.," Reno said handing her a paper with a location written on it.

"Who is this ex soldier huh?," Tifa asked becoming antsy about this conversation. "You might be dropped dead gorgeous, but you ask a lot of questions. To guys that is annoying.," Reno said running his hand through his hair. "His name is Genesis Rhapsodos. You will need to explain to him however that many years have passed since his death. Also, don't let Cloud know about this power. He will more than likely use it to revive that Ancient and Zack Fair.," Rude said finally speaking. "Fine. I'll do this, but it better help or I'll kill you two and then decimate your ignorant leader. Leave now.," Tifa said and closed the door in their face. "She is totally not interested in us and she hasn't really forgiven us.," Reno said annoyed. "Let's go.," Rude said and they left. Tifa walked up the stairs and to her room. "Why am I even doing this?," Tifa asked herself while she packed for her journey.

Tifa walked downstairs, wrote Cloud a note, and left to the Goddess knew where. As she was walking she saw Red 13. "Hey Red, I have a question. Do you know Genesis Rhapsodos?," Tifa asked when she finally reached him. "No, he was before my time with Shinra. Why?," Red 13 asked raising his eyebrow at her. "Well, Rufus is sending me to find him because he would be able to help if Sephiroth is revived by those guys who took the kids.," Tifa said sighing in annoyance. "Hmm. Maybe you should ask Cloud. Maybe he knows something.," Red 13 advised stretching. "He is gone looking for the children. Well, if you see him tell him that I will be back. I am gonna get this Genesis and see if he wants to help.," Tifa said and left after waving goodbye. "I will and be careful!," Red 13 called and walked off to find the others that were called by Rufus. "Be careful. Yeah, whatever. How am I being careful when I am going after an ex-soldier that knows Sephiroth?," Tifa asked herself frustrated as she walked out of the city and ruins of Midgar. She spotted Cloud's motorcycle and hid quickly, after he passed she continued on her way. She crossed many areas and continued through the trecherous terrain of Fort Condor and Junon. "At this rate, Sephiroth will be revived. Damn, you would think the goddess would help me. This is a desperate time and...," Tifa started to say when the shaking of the ground stopped her rant. A light enveloped her and she closed her eyes due to the brightness. The light was warm and inviting, but at the same time it was frightening due to the power she felt emitting from it.

"You called and I have answered. What are you looking for my child?," The goddess's voice echoed and Tifa opened her eyes. The Goddess was all she was said to be, beautiful and ethereal. "I am here to use these items to return Genesis Rhapsodos to our realm. Sephiroth is about to be revived and it's time for him to be a hero.," Tifa said blushing and feeling slightly frightened by her presence. "Hand me the items and your desire is granted.," The Goddess said and Tifa did as she was told. There was another flash and Tifa was back where she started near Aeris's church. A dark cloud formed above her and Tifa looked up to see a man falling. 'This is going to hurt. Ugh!,' Tifa's mind said and the man hit her knocking her to the ground and him on top of her. "Ugh. Where am I?," the man asked finally giving Tifa the ability to see his face. This man was drop dead gorgeous and he had a great body from what she could tell. 'To bad his eyes are closed.,' Tifa's mind said and she lightly sighed. The man then opened his eyes and Tifa's breath caught in her throat. "S-sorry.," the man said getting up quickly and helping her to her feet. That's when she noticed the black wing on his back. "You must be Genesis Rhapsodos. You were revived to help in the defeat of Sephiroth and become a hero like my best friend Cloud. Sephiroth has gone insane claiming he is going to become a god and rid this planet of all life. Don't worry about falling on me. I have been through worse. My name is Tifa Lockhart. It is a pleasure to meet you Genesis.," Tifa said smiling sweetly at him. "So, even the so called hero lost his head. Even if the morrow is barren of promises. Nothing shall for stall my return.," Genesis said unsheathing his sword. "Loveless. It was a great play and the book was as well. Will you help us Genesis?," Tifa asked looking in his direction. Genesis turned to her and he finally got a glimpse of her. She was breathe taking to him, her beautiful face, soft wine colored eyes, her body perfect, and her powerful yet gentle aura spinning around her.

"Yes. I can not guarantee that I will be much help though. In the past I couldn't beat him.," Genesis said glaring at the ground. "You have something he doesn't have this time. His sanity, come on we have got to get to my friends. This way.," Tifa said grabbing his hand and leading him back to Edge. 'Strange. I can feel her sorrow. She is hurting but by who?,' Genesis asked in his mind. 'We have an evil one winged angel and a one winged angel on our side. I wonder how fate planned on this.,' Tifa's mind said as they walked through the town and she immediately noticed Denzel. "DENZEL!," Tifa yelled letting go of Genesis's hand and ran to the boy. Genesis watched her before noticing Bahamut and ran after her...
