FINAL FANATSY 7-The Alternative Generation

By Wunan Infinity

Prologue:-

Cloud Strife woke up from his sleep, greeted by the sounds of songbirds chirping beside his windowsill and the delicious aroma of fried Chocobo bacon from his kitchen. It has been over 6 years since the Sephiroth incident and Cloud now leads a rather mundane life, which he does not mind at all. Grabbing his black slack pants and putting a pair of clean white T-shirt from a closet nearby he heads down to his kitchen eager for breakfast. As the blonde haired ex-SOLDIER entered the room a small girl wearing a green sundress and donning a pink apron greeted him with a smile. She had long straight blonde hair, blue eyes and clear bright skin, just like her father.

"G'Morning daddy!" she chirped and continued her cooking. " Breakfast will be ready in a minute!"

Cloud smiled and mumbled a good morning to her before making his way to the nearby washroom to wash his face. After Cloud finished washing his face and brushed his teeth; he took his seat facing opposite to his daughter. " Scrambled eggs, Chocobo bacon…. Well fried of course, some hash, toast and orange juice.." the little girl sets a plate of food in front of Cloud." It looks lovely, Aeris. Thank you." Cloud smiled to his daughter as he forks a piece of bacon on his plate. His daughter; Aeris, was like a blonde version of her mother with her friendly cheerful behavior and all. Tifa passed away almost 4 years ago with their unborn second child and her death left Cloud a broken shell of a man. Luckily, he was not alone in Kalm and had help from Barret, Marlene and Elmyra during his hour of need. After almost a year of care from his friends, Cloud finally managed to piece his life back together and continue his life with his daughter, Aeris.

Both Tifa and Cloud married shortly after the Sephiroth incident and named their first child after their old friend and comrade; Aeris Gainsborough, the savior of the planet.

" Daddy? What are you thinkin'?" the 5 year old child asks. Cloud snaps away from his thoughts and pats the girl on the head lightly. " Nothing dear. Just …nothing." He smiled to the confused looking child.

Suddenly, his doorbell rang causing his daughter to dash at the door. Little girls especially hyperactive little girl likes to greet people. Cloud cleared away the dishes and followed her from behind.

"Don't open the door yet darling. We don't want any strangers coming in to our home now do we?" Cloud unlocks the door and motions his daughter to stand behind him. He then opens the door and saw a beautiful oriental looking woman standing in front of his door carrying a rather large travel bag. She was about 5'7 just a few inches shorter than him and had black raven hair that just reaches her shoulders, silky clear creamy white skin and brown hazel eyes. She was wearing a long sleeved green collared T-shirt, gray colored faded denim jeans and black leather combat boots. Cloud noticed that her face looks rather familiar. Cloud also notices that her body is quite sexy-looking although she is some sort quite muscular a bit. Cloud never knew such beautiful slender looking yet muscular woman existed in Kalm.

'She must be a foreigner..' Cloud thought. 'And judging on the developed muscles on her thighs and arms I bet she must be some sort of martial artists.'

" I guess you forgot who I am judging by the way you're gawking at my legs and body, ne?" the woman smiled.

" I…I…I'm sorry. It's just that I've never met such a beautiful woman like you before. I apologize if I offended you in any way." Cloud blushed in embarrassment.

"Never Met?! Beautiful?" the girl blushed. She then giggled and stifled a laugh before taking out 3 red orbs from her pocket. "Maybe this will refresh your mind."

'Summon Materias?' Cloud looks at the red orbs. "That's the Leviathan, Shiva and Knights of the Round Summon Materias!!!"

" Bingo! Like ten thousand points for Spikes here!" the woman passes the Knights of the Round Materia to Cloud. " That's yours. You dropped it at Northern Crater during your little action with Sephy-boy."

" You must be…" Cloud smiled at the woman, finally realizing who she really is.

"Yuffie Kisaragi, retired materia-hunter extraordinaire!" the woman winked at Cloud and flashes a V sign at him. "How's it hangin' spikes?"

Elsewhere…..At the Northern Crater

" I can feel it…..I can feel the chosen one now……" a dark voice breaks the silence in a dimly lit cavern. A tall skinny creature, covered in a large loose red robe levitates in the middle of the cavern and muttered a few chants. A man with short white spiky white hair, pale skin and glowing red eyes steps in front of the creature. He is wearing a red colored SOLDIER uniform and a large samurai sword is sheathed near him on his waist. " Something wrong old man?"

" The time has come for action…..we must act now…."

" Time for the WAKE?"

" Yesss……..now……"

The short haired man smiled an evil grin and fixed his eyes on the creature." You sure old man? We've been waiting for over 3 years now."

"I am sure human….the chosen one… I can feel its presence……. so faint yet it is so pure and strong like the wind itself…"the creature rasps again as a glowing red aura emits from its body.

"Brother, I do believe he's right." A woman entered their conversion. The woman was wearing a red uniform similar to the white haired man and had a large scythe resting on her shoulders. She had long unkept spiky white hair, pale skin and golden colored eyes. "Our toys are getting restless……they are getting more violent than usual, almost too violent to control. They know something……."

" You believe him also, sis?" the man shrugged. "Very well then, I guess this does deserve our attention for now anyways. Where is this chosen one now, my immortal friend?"

" In Kalm……Kalm…….I can feel it in my soul….."

'I doubt that. You don't have a soul, you demon-spawn.' The woman thought as she checks out her scythe.

" Brother, can I go?"

" Why not? Bring along Torga and Zeen along with my toys." The man smiled as he presses a button on a console nearby. A large door automatically opens and 6 large Zombie-Dragons walks out slowly, with gleaming blood lust filled eyes wandering around the room. " Locate and retrieve the chosen one at Kalm. "Destroy anything and anyone that gets in your way…..man, woman or even children…." The white haired man finished his sentence muffling a soft evil chuckle as his eyes began to glow again. "Especially……children…"

Author's notes:

So how's that? I figure the fighting scenes will start on Chapter 2. The bad guy characters I designed especially the white haired brother-sister character is based mostly on a Sephiroth idea I had dangling in my deranged brain of mine. In the following, some FF7 characters may seem a bit out of character or OOC but I'll try to fit them to the fic story and the original game story background.
