A/N: Final Chapter!!

A young man stepped out of his home to watch an object fall from the sky and slam into the planet in the snowy region.

"Brahm!" Someone called behind him.

"Yes?" He asked as he turned. "What is it?"

"The mother calls for you. She would like you to come to her home as soon as you've gone to see that it was that landed in the snowy region."

Brahm looked abashed before he realized that Adya's seers have probably told her who would see the object from the sky. "Please tell her that I will be there shortly then." With that he turned and left to see what had landed in the snow.

"Brahm!" Adya called as she leapt off the throne she was seated in. "Thank you for coming."

Brahm smiled, he couldn't help but smile at Adya's happiness. His mind wondering to the fact that he didn't understand how she could always be so happy knowing her life was only here for the race of the Cetra.

The Cetra are just using her… If you helped me we could rid this planet of the filthy people who are just using her. Then there would be no one between you and the girl. A voice in the back of his mind called out.

Brahm shook his head, he wondered where the voice came from but quickly tossed it aside as Adya came up to him.

"Would you take a walk with me?" She smiled at him.

"Of course Adya." He smiled at her in return as he offered her his arm.

Adya slid her hand around his arm as she rested her head against his arm.

Adya… He thought as he looked down at the small girl. If only I were special enough to be the one to be with you… He walked with her around the city.

Oh Brahm… Adya thought as she moved her head enough to hide her face from his view. If only you didn't have to find that thing from the sky… If only I wasn't who I was… I would have picked you anyway but your fate has been sealed by Jenova…

"What are you thinking Mother Adya…?" Brahm asked as he noticed her hair covering her face.

"I was thinking how lovely it was to walk with you." She turned to look up at him and smiled. "Thank you." She stopped before her home.

Brahm noticed where they had come and began to pull his arm from her grasp but she stopped him. "Adya…?"

Adya placed her finger against his lips before she lifted herself up on her toes and pressed her lips against his as she took his hand and lead him inside. I'm sorry Brahm…

I yanked myself free of our trip down memory lane gasping.

"What was that?" Sephiroth asked as he trained his sword in my direction.

"That was our past life…" I said as I stood away from him. "That was your first life here with Jenova. You were a Cetra just like the others during that time but because you searched out Jenova you became tainted. Not pure enough to be a Cetra anymore but still pure of this planet to become the father of the next generation. Because of you Jenova was able to harm this planet but also because of you the Cetra did not die out but evolved to a people that would survive her damage."

Sephiroth turned to me. "You're the one that mother told me about, the one the births the Ancients." He glared at me. "I won't let you bear anymore of them. You will die here."

"No…" I said sadly as I stared at a man who had once been so pure to help me bear new life. "It is you and Jenova who will die…"

He charged me but I knew what was coming, I side stepped just fast enough to get past his blade then shoved a shard of Life Stream up under his rib cage.

"I pray that you will become pure of heart once more, Freed of that evil force…" I smiled sadly and kissed his lips softly. "Thank you for being the Father to my Mother so many years ago. Now, return to the man you were before the corruption…" I turned away from him, leaving him there with the shard of Life Stream, to go to Jenova.

"I'm ready Aerith…"

"I know Marie…" She answered from her place in the Stream.

I moved my hands over my chest, palm towards each other, as I focused all my energy into that void between them. Please… Protect these people. Protect this planet. Save and restore. I felt the power surge through me as the group erupted and the Life Stream began to pour up. Help us. Help us all. Then I felt the Stream engulf me as it forced it's way up and into Meteor, pushing it away for Holy to destroy it.

Vincent watched at the Life Stream surged through the ground and engulfed his wife, using her as a living conduit for the Stream as it shot to the sky to destroy Meteor. He looked down at his daughter, her hand reached out to him and he gave her his finger. "I hope she comes back…"

I stumbled away from the crater and gazed up to the sky. "Thank you…" I murmured as I turned my attention to the planet below me. "Thank you for everything…"

"Hey!!!" I heard someone shout as I turned to look.

"Look! She's alive!" It was Yuffie that cried out.

I smiled weakly as Tifa, Barret, Cloud, Cid, Nanaki, and Cait Sith came running at me. "Hi guys…"

"Thank goodness!" Tifa called. "Vincent was so worried."

"Where is he?"

"Back at your home."

"Can you take me there…?"

"Of course missy. Get ye arse on that plane." Cid said with a smile.

"Thank you…" I smiled.

"Vincent!!" I called as I ran off the plane and up to my home. "Vincent!"

Vincent opened the door. "Marie?"

"Vincent!" I smiled as I ran up to him.

"Marie!!" He answered as he opened his arms in time for me to leap into them.

"I was so worried I'd never come home." I cried as I buried my head into his neck.

"Me too Marie, me too…" He murmured into my hair.

"Momma!"

I turned to see a small girl with came running out.

"Eveleen?" I asked as I moved back to see her, she had raven hair and liquid gold eyes.

"She's growing up extremely fast. I assume that has something to do with why you went to the City of the Ancients?"

I nodded as I lifted my daughter into my arms. "She is the new race of Ancients…"

Vincent looked down at the smiling girl. "How?"

"come inside…" I answered as I lead the way. "I'll tell you everything." I stopped in the door way and gazed back at Vincent. "I love you… I'm so happy with you…"

He smiled at me as he leaned down and brushed his lips softly against mine. "I love you too." He touched my face softly. "I'm so happy with you. I wouldn't want life any other way."
