A/N: Ok so this story is my second FFAC fanfic. I hope it goes well, as I am not sure at all what I have in mind for it. I have a basic idea though…so please bear with me. There are going to be two OC's in this one too by the way. I hope it isn't too much or anything…but the other one only plays a mild part.
Authoress: Me
Disclaimerfication: I, unfortunately, do not own the characters in FFAC. If I did…hehe…you get the idea I'm sure. Anyway. You should have all known that by now…if you didn't you're just silly. Unless this is your first fanfiction…then you are forgiven.
To everyone who loved this world,
And knew friendly company therein:
This story is for you…
Prologue:
The Lifestream. That's what we call the river of life that circles our planet, giving life to the world and everything in it. The Shinra Electric Power Company discovered a way to use the Lifestream as an energy source. Because of Shinra's energy we were able to live very comfortable lives. But wasn't that because we were taking away from the planet's life? A lot of people thought so.
Shinra used their power to try and stop anybody who got in their way. Shinra had a special group of warriors called SOLDIER and all the SOLDIERs had Jenova cells put inside them. Jenova was a calamity that fell from the sky a long, long time ago, and tried to destroy the planet.
Anyway, there was one SOLDIER, Sephiroth, who was better than the rest, but when he found out about the terrible experiments that made him he began to hate Shinra. Then, over time, he began to hate everything. Sephiroth was defeated and the planet was safe, but not for long.
Two years later, Sephiroth was reborn. He manipulated his remnants to do his will through the desire he had to return. There were a lot of battles, and with each battle there was more sadness. Two more people went back to the Lifestream that day and because of their sacrifice, Sephiroth was defeated once again, making the planet safe from his wrath.
"Sadness was the price to see it end." I will never forget the day they told me that. I didn't really understand it then…but I do now.
