Well it's been awhile since the last time I wrote on any of my fanfics. Guess I finally found some time to actually start writing again. I was thinking of writing this fanfics for quite awhile, but I was worried someone else might have already written something similar with all the FFVII fanfics there are in the world. But I guess I finally got bored enough not to care, sorry. Disclaimer: I really don't own anything to do with Final Fantasy 7 so don't waste your time suing me, ok?

Final Fantasy VII: Resurrecting the Past Prologue

After the effects of Meteor landing in Midgar the last of the Shinra were said to have disbanded and gone their own separate ways. Most gave up on the Shinra inc. all together, but some still chose to terrorize people on the streets. The towns had grown tremendously over time and the members of avalanche Cloud, Tifa, Cid, Nanaki, Barret, Cait Sith, Vincent, and Yuffie had been hailed as hero's for stopping meteor and defeating Sephiroth, and also a memorial had been built in honor of Aeris and the other Cetra or Ancients. The memorial was built just outside of Midgar filled with flowers that always bloomed, it was said that Aeris had once loved flowers as well. They had wanted to build the memorial inside Midgar right where Aeris's church had once been, but after meteor had landed a curse had come over Midgar. Monsters still lurked around there and there was said to be a rumor of a shadow that looked just like Sephiroth walking around that place. People had gone into Midgar and had never returned and so the place, once known as Midgar the infamous capital of the Shinra, was abandoned. No one ever set foot into the cursed capital and the greenery was allowed to grow freely.

During this time the eight heroes' that had survived Sephiroth each went their own way. Cid Highwind had gone back to rocket town needing to repair his ship named after him the Highwind. It had gained quite a bit of damage in escaping Sephiroth's cavern. He improved the Highwind and later on married Shera. Red XIII a.k.a Nanaki became the new leader of Cosmo Canyon. He researched in the library finding out as much as he could on the planet and the many things related to it. He now rules Cosmo Canyon with his great wisdom of the planet and his strength gained in the fight against Sephiroth.

Yuffie Kisaragi also came to rule Watai after her father passed away. She used her new influence and turned Watai into a flourishing town no longer dictated by Shinra. Although she accepted the ruling of Watai, Yuffie ran away two years after returning to become a freelance ninja. She never returned to Watai, but instead traveled the world. Some say that she couldn't handle the leadership, while others say that she abandoned her country and people after feeling that they would be fine without her. Whatever the reason, Yuffie disappeared after reaching the cold arctic lands that lead to Sephiroth's lair. No reports of her were ever found again.

Reeve's Head of the Shinra's urban development left all ties of Shinra and began to work as a journalist. He traveled some of the world staying in one place for a while before moving on. He made the most complete and detailed book that followed the travels of Avalanche and their leader Cloud. Reeve later betrayed Avalanche rejoining a small group of Shinra. During one of the attacks on the Shinra it was reported that Reeve was killed.

Vincent Valentine disappeared completely without a trace after the fight with Sephiroth, though some reports state that he returned to the cave behind the waterfall to be with his one true love Lucrecia even after she had died. Not much else was given on Vincent.

The Turk's had disbanded quietly after the death of their leader Tseng. Elena the only female Turk at the time moved to Gongaga to live out her life a bit more peacefully helping to rebuild the town along with Rude who had followed her there. The two married later having a child they named Terra. Reno started traveling and became an assassin for hire unable to give up his bloody past even after the Turk's had been defeated. He fought against the Shinra joining a small group of active Avalanche members consisting of Cid, Cloud, Barret, and Tifa. The five worked together for three years targeting the small up rise of Shinra. After that no records of Reno exist.

Tifa Lockheart became the owner of the bar Seventh Heaven, recreated in Kalm, after the extra three years of fighting. Not much else happened to Tifa afterwards. Her adventurous life ended with the final defeat of a small Shinra squad lead by her former friend Reeve.

Barret Wallace returned to North Corel with Marlene and Elmyra, Aeris' stepmother. He worked hard to rebuild the town to its former glory, but was over come by heavy Shinra attacks directed towards the town. Marlene and many of the other town's folk were killed in the attacks. Feeling lost and angry Barret joined Cloud, Tifa, Reno, and Cid in attacks against Shinra hoping to get his revenge. It was later reported that Barret committed suicide after his new wife Elmyra died from Cancer.

Cloud Strife was last seen to be traveling towards the City of the Ancients after his three years of battling the Shinra he left everything behind and vanished into the Sleeping forest never to be heard from again.

Now two hundred years have past since Sephiroth's defeat Nanaki still ruled Cosmo Canyon, the Shinra still put up a resistance front and a new adventure is about to begin to reawaken the past that has remained asleep for centuries...

---- Well that's the end of the prologue. The chapters will probably be longer. (I think) I'll try to update soon. (That's another I think, given the fact that I tend to totally forget my other fanfic's exist. ~sigh)
