Goddess' Gift
A Final Fantasy VII Story
Chapter 1:
Saving the Gift
AN: Okay hello everyone this is my first attempt at submitting a fan fic, so PLEASE be nice. This little bad boy was sitting on my shelf gathering dust, but I was just hunting through my WRITTEN fan fics and this thing LITERALLY pimp smacked me in the face. I didn't know whether or not to post it. I was on the fence for so long about it. I mean the way that I write now and the way that I wrote then, (I think that I wrote this like 6 years ago, damn it's been a long time) has changed too much.
I don't even know if it's any good. I kinda plan on just making it a one-shot, considering I don't know what to do with it right now, but if I get enough reviews, I might continue it. But they have to be GOOD reviews. I don't mind the flames, they will help Genesis, with his Materia practice, but I would prefer good ones. So without further adieu, because I have been talking so long...LET'S BEGIN WITH GODDESS' GIFT! (Oh, and there probably will be A LOT of OOC in here, just a warning!)
Disclaimer: *deep breath* I DO NOT OWN FINAL FANTASY 7: CRISIS CORE! THE ONLY THING THAT I OWN IS MY OC! If I did own it, Genesis would not have gone crazy and thought himself a monster, he would be mine and I would love him forever until the end of time. Sephiroth would not have gone crazy. Bitch Jenova would never have come into play. Angeal would never have been killed by Zack. Zack and Aerith would have been together and have had lots of awesome babies. And Cloud and Tifa would have also gotten together and had awesome babies too.
Another AN: So now that I have taken this down off the internet, after having it up for so long with it having so many mistakes... I have changed Tsuki's name to Amaterasu Avaron which actually translates to "island of apples shining over heaven". Amaterasu translated means "shining over heaven" and Avaron means "island of apples". Due to the fact the the Japanese usually put their last names first my OC would be referred to as "Avaron Amaterasu" or "island of apples shining over heaven". Now in this story I don't believe I will be using the name Avaron. I might use it. If I do it will be much later in the story and I will once again explain what the name means in the chappie that I use it in.
So I'm sorry for having to take things down just to change all the names and everything. But when I looked up the translation for Tsuki's name to make sure that I had to correct translation for it, (because I am going to have Genesis eventually ask Amaterasu what her name means in Wutaianese (which I am using the Japanese language for since I don't know what the Wutaian's speak in the game) and eventually she will tell him when she is comfortable enough to) but I came up with the wrong translation and I just couldn't leave the name the way it was so I just had to change it. So this is the product of that. Sorry once again for having to take this down for so long just to change a name, but I just couldn't live with the wrong name. I present to you the re-done version of Chapter 1!
Okay peeps it's been a while since I redid all this and unfortunately I have had to change the rating of this. Due to all of the "M" rated chappies that I have had to slide in, I have decided to just change the rating to"M". I know that may upset some of you but I'm sorry. With all the things that are happening in the later chappies I just don't want to get reported and have my story reported and get in trouble and everything. But I will assure you there will be NO LEMONS in this story.
The only reason I'm upping the rating is because of language and fighting content. Things like that. Nothing that will be totally sexual. There will be a few scenes with removed clothing, but NO LEMONS WILL APPEAR! Things will get a little heated in certain sections, but nothing will happen, be assured.
Later peeps! I have now decided in addition to putting up excerpts from LOVELESS, will be putting up popular quotes that I either find interesting, inspiring, or that I think actually kind of fits/describes what is kind of going to happen in the chappie. Like I said some of them will some of them won't. I just noticed others doing this and I thought it would be fun to do it as well.
"When the war of the beasts brings about the worlds end, the Goddess descends from the sky. Wings of light and dark spread afar. She guides to bliss, her Gift everlasting."
LOVELESS Prologue
"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do."

"Genesis, come on, the entire lab is about to go up! Let's get the heck out of here!" yelled Angeal as he grabbed the back of his best friends leather duster and gave a firm yank.
"Get the hell off, Angeal! I'm not leaving without the girl!" Genesis yelled back, ripping the duster out of his friends grasp.
"She's not worth die- mmph..." Angeal raised a hand to the side of his face and tenderly rubbed his jaw.
Though they were best friends, Genesis had only truly decked him like that once before, and that had been when he was truly, seriously pissed. Dark anger dripped in Genesis' voice as his eyes glowed with Mako-infused power.
"Never say that again, Angeal! That girl is a "Gift" from the Goddess, I know it! I'm not going to let Hojo corrupt her with his filthy ways!" he growled.
Genesis spun on his heel and ran back into the lab. Looking around the room, he searched, almost frantically for his Goddess' "Gift". After a few minutes of searching from room to room, he spotted her. What he saw absolutely appalled him. She was enclosed and locked in a glass case, circular in shape, with not even enough room to stand up. She was curled against the far side of it in fear, her arms drawn up over her head, eyes shut tight.
Her body was closed in a thin, skin-tight black bodysuit and was visibly trembling. Genesis all but flew to the case and summoned Rapier to his hand. He pressed a gloved hand against the glass case, then rapped sharply on it, trying to catch the girls attention and it worked. She looked up and their eyes finally met for the first time. Genesis' breath caught in his chest. Her eyes were cat-like as his other best friends Sephiroth's were, but they held the same azure blue as his own.
A large crash to the side brought them both back to reality, causing Genesis to jump and the girl to merely snap her head in the direction of the crash. Genesis rapped on the case again, bringing the girls attention back to him. He pointed at Rapier and then at the case she was in.
"I hope you can hear me or at least understand me cause I don't have time to repeat this. I'm breaking the case and getting the both of us out of here. Get ready, the glass is going everywhere!" he yelled.
The girl's eyes brightened a little bit but she didn't move except to cover her head again as another piece of equipment came crashing down. Genesis didn't know if the glass was thin enough so that she heard him, but as he had said; he didn't have time to repeat. He raised Rapier high above his head and brought the gleaming crimson and silver sword down hard upon the case. He heard the glass case shatter, then heard the girl scream. Looking back to the glass case, he saw it was now shattered into millions of pieces, however many had showered down onto the girl.
'No!' Genesis' mind screamed at him, believing that the girl could possibly be cut, though there was no blood.
He rushed into what was left of the glass case and to the girl, kneeling down in front of her. Genesis reached out and gently touched the girl's black-clad arm, brushing some of the glass off it.
"Are you alright? Did you get cu-" he began.
The girl's arms uncovered her head and her auburn tresses fluffed around her shoulders as she shook herself off and her hair fluffed even more around her soft face.
She smiled sweetly up at him and shook her head as if saying, 'It's alright. I'm fine.'
Genesis smiled himself in return and raised a red-gloved hand to brush gently across a cream-colored cheek.
"Thank Gaia..." he whispered to himself, glad he hadn't lost the trust he hadn't yet known he'd gained.
The girl leaned into the touch, closing her azure blue, cat-like eyes and slowly lifted a hand to slip inside his. Suddenly an explosion behind Genesis rained down the heated metal on the both of them. Genesis' leather duster kept him protected, the girl did not fair as well. The metal landed on barely concealed skin and burned through the suit like it wasn't even there. Then the metal seared itself into the girl's flesh, causing the girl to jerk away from Genesis in pain, curling around her arm in a desperate attempt to stop the torturous sensation.
Genesis's eyes instantly snapped to the cover-up she was wearing.
"She has no protection from any of this in that thing Hojo has her wearing..." he muttered to himself.
Genesis looked around them, trying to find something – anything to cover her with. Unfortunately, everything within reach was burning or wouldn't provide any protection. Then he had an idea. He hated taking his beloved duster off, he was much more vulnerable that way, but she was more important than he was. Genesis didn't care how injured he became so long as this "Gift" remained unharmed.
He'd already allowed her to be burned, nothing more would happen to her. Genesis lowered Rapier to the ground and pulled the red leather duster off his body and swung it around her, hastily tucking her arms into the sleeves, apologizing for his roughness as he went. He picked up Rapier and sent the crimson blade away with a small mental command, he was going to need both arms to carry the girl. Genesis swiftly scooped her up into his arms and held her diagonally across his chest. She was so small, it was just easier for him to hold her that way.
The girl squirmed against him, obviously not used to this kind of physical contact with another human, at least without negative repercussions. Genesis stood and just held her tighter to his chest as he began to run.
"Please forgive me, I swear I won't hurt you, but I have to do this..." his words stopped momentarily as he dodged a piece of falling equipment, "...It's just until we get out off here..." a dodged explosion, "...bear with me until then, please."
The girl seemed to understand and stopped her movements as Genesis rounded a corner and spotted the door to the lab.
'Yes, freedom in sight!' he thought to himself.
He began to sprint for the door and the two were almost out when there was a large explosion. As a result, a piece of equipment over the door was knocked loose and fell, effectively blocking the door. Genesis skidded to a stop just short of running into the equipment and backed up a few steps.
"Damn..." he muttered to himself, looking around, "...Trapped..."
The girl's eyes peered out from within the confines of the red leather duster, wide with alarm and fear. She shivered violently in Genesis' arms and he heard a loud whimper. His arms tightened around her a little. He wasn't going to lose this gift. Calling Rapier back to his hand, he raised it high and brought the blade down hard in a diagonal slash, then again, sent it away.
Raising his hand, he called upon his ablilites within himself to activate the orb of materia housed within the armor on his arm. The green orb of materia began to glow and red and black fire swirled around his hand. Genesis called up the most powerful Fire spell that he knew. Casting Dark Firega, a ball of dark fire flew from his hand and smashed into the fallen equipment. It exploded in shards of red and black and Genesis turned his back to it, further shielding the girl and shielding himself as well.
Looking over his shoulder, Genesis turned and checked his work. The equipment was gone. With one last look down at the girl, he ran out of the lab door.
Finishing AN: Oh holy fly! That was one of the harder ones that I came up with. I mean I was kinda trying to keep Gen in character, but then again, I wanted him to be a little OOC. I mean, you guys might not think it was hard to do this one, it might look mundane and everything. But back when I first wrote this, wow. I was really cheesy back then. So cleaning it up was kinda hard. But I did my best. So if it seems crappy, well Blah.
