Cloud Strife is given to Jenova in exchange for food and shelter for Cloud and his mother. Cloud doesn't seem to be a sacrifice, but what exactly does Jenova have in mind for him?

He wasn't born normal. He wouldn't be able to do anything they said. There were only a small handful of people that acually believed that Cloud would be able to overcome what everyone said. It took him a few years, but he learned to walk, and somewhat talk, thanks to his older brother Zack, and his mother as well. But Cloud wasn't as helpless as they thought. You see, he...

One happy, hapless day in Shinra, Cloud's hair falls into one of Hojo's concoctions - a vat of mako laced with a strong aphrodisiac meant for Sephiroth. The strangest day for Cloud ensues. Cloud x a lot of people in Shinra

Cloud would have liked to say it was the sword or the eyes, but really, it was the hair. No one had hair like that except his mom, himself, and, well, this guy. So naturally he had to follow him. The trouble didn't start till after that, though.

As the title says, this is a collection of drabbles/one-shots from the "In Which Cloud Travels…" universe. A collection of what-could-have-been-in-the-story-but-didn't-quite -make-it, and snippets of past lives.

For once, Cloud has his life sorted out. Going from delivery boy to travelling healer in the post-Meteor world, he finally has peace. When Denzel travels back through time, he has to leave it all behind to help his son in the world he thought he escaped. But taking Hojo's job? That was an accident. Mostly.

Cloud summons Leviathan, and the critter refuses to go away. The only solution may be to go back in time, so Cloud is understandably concerned. It's like they always say: Be careful what you wish for!

Cloud's first thought on waking in the Shinra training grounds..."Where's the hidden camera?". What is one supposed to do when they find themselves inexplicably in the past? Become a terrorist four years early, of course. And look up a few old friends.

Cloud is summoned by Cosmos to fight against Chaos. Again. But this is definitely not the universe he's used to... (A Theatrhythm crackfic! Rating is just for language.)

Do you ever wish a character would've made a different choice? Well here's your chance! Guide Cadet Strife through his days at Shinra. The choices you make will effect the whole story line. Will you be able to prevent Zack's death? Or stop Sephiroth from going crazy? Do you have what it takes to be in SOLDIER? This is a romance story, but yaoi only. Rating will go up later.

You'd think that if Cloud was given another chance at life to fix everything that went wrong, he'd gladly take it. You're right. He did take it. And he was grateful for it too. The first 10 repeats, that is. Frankly, by his 30th life, Cloud no longer gave a damn. Fem!Cloud S/C Sephiroth/Cloud Time-Travel

Cloud is sent back in time with Sephiroth after the final battle in ACC. Under Sephiroth's control and back in a younger body can Cloud make a better ending for the Planet? time-travel.

Eveeryong is always getting told quotes- by family or friends. Some are funny, some are annoying, and some are irritating. But at times the can truly describe what it is that you are going through.

What if it feels like jealous? What if it feels like you can't breath? What if it feels like you're down on your knees? Cloud is tired of waiting, of thinking, of trying. He just wanted to be accepted, to be needed, to be loved, by someone, by anyone.
