-1In The Lifestream
You can sail the seven seas… wait, that's not right. (Ahem)
After Advent Children Sephiroth returns to the life stream again. And now he has to undergo villain rehabilitation before he's allowed anywhere near revival plot bunnies. Lucky him. A drabble series if you will.
Disclaimer: I do not know any way to purchase the FFVII characters so alas, they are not mine.

The Lifestream is a weird and confusing place. It is something that does not exist in time and space but wrather on an Etheral plane. Anyone looking in would just see it as a green liquid with some lighting effects. To try and describe all its qualities in detail so that it can be fully pictured in the minds of humans would require me to write a novel describing it yet still leaving a good part of it up to imagination.
And I don't do novels.
So let me just cut it short and say it can take any form at any time. Don't ask me why, it just can.
At this moment in time it was currently in the form of a classroom (with the green sparkly light effects outside the windows) complete with a chalk board, the teachers desk which was decorated in flowers and one student sitting at the desk.
A very angry one at that, with long silver hair and dressed in black leather.
"I hate you Aerith. I really do."
"Now Sephiroth, that's not a very nice thing to say to your teacher, is it?"
He growled in response. It was only his first session of this and he already wanted to tear her lungs out if such a thing was possible in the Lifestream but this leads back to the 'what the hell is the Lifestream apart from the blood of the planet' discussion.
"Now class, I am miss Gainsborough but since you know me already we can skip most of the formalities can't we?" Sephiroth wanted to grab Masamune if it weren't for the fact that Zack confiscated it when he got back from his latest battle from Cloud.
"Yes Miss Gainsborough." He said through gritted teeth.
"Anyway Sephiroth, welcome to the guide for villain rehabilitation so that you can finally be a co-operative member of the life stream now that you are somewhat free of Jenova's control and that if by any chance you do get revived, you will only use that time for good deeds." Aeris said with a typical smile on her face.
"Question."
"Yes?"
"Why are you putting me through this torture. Is it revenge? Its revenge for stabbing you through the heart isn't it."
"What would give you that thought? I am genuinely shocked that you'd accuse me of being so vindictive!" She asked, looking thoroughly offended.
"The fact that my Father isn't getting the same treatment is kind of a give away." Sephiroth muttered, Hojo deserved the ultimate ride through every circle of hell so why was he getting let off this one.
"That's nonsense, if I was just out for revenge he'd be crucified, castrated and… something else that begins with the letter C."
"Okay…" Sephiroth said, eying the dead Centra uncertainly.
"So first things first, tell me what made you so angry all the time."
"Well it started when I found out that the only thing I had close to a parent was a planet destroying alien in a giant test tube." Sephiroth sighed.
"Is that why you still call her your mother still, because she was the only one you ever had."
"I guess so. Wow, I think I feel better already, thanks for this Aerith, now if you would just let me out of here so I can…" He said, smiling slightly and rising out of his chair.
"Not so fast Seph, we still have much more work to be done here." Aeris said, motioning Sephiroth to sit back down. Her powers however gave Sephiroth no option in the matter. His muscles (or metaphorical Lifestream equivalent) obeying her more than him.
"Leviathan damn it."

Just the start of his torture, this fic will feature Zack once I can peel him away from his mental images of Aeris as a school teacher.
Zack: Hey! You don't have to tell everyone you know.
Me: Of course I do. Its probably all over some dark recess of the internet already. Now leave a review so I could possibly continue this line of thought. One more thing, suggestions are welcomed.
