One man thinks to stop me? Without faith, I cannot be stopped. Only she knows this. Ah yes, that Cetra girl – funny the lengths one will go to preserve their life. But life is so meaningless when the end result is nothing but death. Humans are worthless creatures, not even worth a grain of salt. All they do is cower behind the strong, watching dispassionately as they fight for their battles, praising the strong as heroes. But when it's over, those pathetic humans are ready to maim and kill you. They want to blame you for all their problems instead of realizing that they are part of the problem. Oh Sephiroth, you know as well as I do, you can't be a prince forever, saving everyone from their problems. They aren't worthy of your protection – they recognize your greatness, even respect it, but they do not appreciate it. How can they when they don't even appreciate life? This is why they must be taught – this is why the Destruction must go forth. We will teach these pathetic creatures the true meaning of appreciation. Is that understood, Sephiroth? My dear son…

Sephiroth was lying on his couch. Was he dreaming? He couldn't tell anymore. Reality. Illusion. It made no sense anymore. Glowing, green eyes fluttered open. "Yes Mother. I understand. But… aren't I human as well?"

Is there really a need to ask such an obvious question?

"I am alone."

Ogni uomo è un'isola; ci leviamo in piedi da solo.

do you suffer as I do? stay with me, sephiroth. and let's prove our existence.

"I can't do anything, Mother, as long as her faces haunts my dreams."

A/N: A really short chapter but I think this one kind of flows more with the original style of writing than the last. Still trying to get back into the flow of things. As always, forgive my grammar and spelling.
