Roxas And Strife, When Worlds Collide
Prologue
It has been 2 years since the events of Advent Children and the city of Midgar still has not fully returned to it's former glory. The Shinra Headquarters now only a memory since it was destroyed by Sephiroth in the events that ensued with his last great battle with Cloud. Bodies of lost loved ones still hide in the rubble of old buildings from those events. The earth is still healing from the Meteor attack that Sephiroth unleashed upon the earth, if not for the life stream that day there wouldn't be much of an earth lift to live on. The great war between Sephiroth and the earth has indeed claimed many lives but these hardships have brought the survivors of that dark time closer together than family.
The past may have claimed their homes and even some of their family but never will it take their will to live. Now in the once lost and forgotten sector 7 all the residents of Midgar come together to rebuild what was once taken from them. This task however will take a huge amount of money and time, so unless the people come together as one this will certainly be impossible.
There are already signs of hope as the section which contained 7th heaven is now cleared and open for business, the only difference though is now they offer a delivery service as well as a bar. The building now rebuilt stands up as hope that one day all of sector 7 can be rebuilt better than before. The huge amount of available work is causing the economy to boom and thanks to the golden saucer the funds are available. Now the once the poor people of the slums with next to no possessions are now working class citizens building new homes having full meals and sending their children to school.
All seems well for most people aside from one person who is having a difficult time letting go of the past, from not being strong enough to protect the people that mean the most to him to having those same people be forced into protecting him to save his life and in one case that ment watching that person die right in front of him. He feels as if the things of the present are going to good to last like something big is on the horizon but is unable to pinpoint what it may be. After all Weapon is still on the loose and has been unseen for the last 2 and a half years, who's to say it may not come back and attack Midgar since we still use the raw mako ore left behind by Shinra energy and forced to use it until we can find an alternative power source. Without it the job of rebuilding the city would be impossible.
It is likely that new friends will be made and old alliances called upon. Some of the new friends that are on the horizon may be of an unlikely origin but be that as it may this is that story and anything is possible.
One thing is for sure though, this person feels that this town is worth something and as long as his friends live there he will defend it with all his heart, there is no darkness that can slow his haste to protect all that he has with the people who mean everything, this person is Cloud Strife.
