Chapter 6


Hmm... I defently ain't doing somtheing right cause no ones making this difficult....


Usual disclamers, I son't own FF7 so on so forth.



The cat sat on the front steps of the church meowing piteafully. Cloud grips his buster sword tight and prepares to slice down the door.


Sephiroth was right this was a curch of thieir past.


Cid grabs the cat, and steps. Cloud quickly makes mince meat out of the door.
\

It was obvious that the church was empty from the bigining the only reason that they knew Sephiroth was here is that he left behind his shoe. Cloud picks up the shoe, and looks around. Where the sencond is where Sephiroth should be.


"RedVIII, do you smell anything?"


"Nothing but you and Cid's B.O." RedVIII answers nonchalantly.


Cloud and Cid check there own armpits and cringe. RedVIII is right. There B.O. is bad.



"Wheres the fucken cat?" Cid asks looking aorund.


Cloud runs outside and looks around for the cat. RedVIII joins in on the search. Cid just stands in the doorway cursing Sephiroth's choice on a cat.


They find Sephiroth's cat playing with Sephiroth's other shoe in the opening of a mine. Cid picks up the cats and sticks the fiesty thing in his jacket. The cat surrenders.


Sephiroth finds himself in a nightmare, watching himself. At the hands of his dream self he see's himself coldly killing familys. A total masacer. Sephiroths body shakes.


"This is not a dream." A deep voice rumbles throw the darkness.


Sephiroth faces the older face in his sword from ealier. The older persons face is heavy with greif and shame.


"Sephiroth, this is not a dream. This is what I did in my past life. I confused heaven and hell so they reicarnated me as you."


"I did this in a past life?"


The old man nods. "You got to hold on. If you die now I can't garentee your going to get anouther chance for redemption."


"Hold on. I'm not playing with a full bag of memories, and you are saying if I die I'll have to pay for crimes I don't remeber?!"


"Yes, thats because Iam you."


Sephiroth turns and numbly as a woman is brudially mudered with her infant. This was what he did in his past life. Couldn't have someone told him sooner.


Cloud, RedVIII and Cid come to a fork in the mine shafts. Not able to decide which way to go, Cid and Cloud plays rock paper sissors. After 8 stale mates Cloud finially wins. They go left.


A giant deformed creature looms out of the darkness. Cid gloats on the fact her said right. Now they had a big ugly thing to fight. Cloud takes the offensive, but remains still. They all decide that it would be better for the creatre to make the first move,


After two ours of painfully standing still the creature moves on. Finding his prey unworthy.


"Cloud I don't like this. Hojo's creations just don't stare for two hours than walk away." RedVIII points out.


"What can't some thing just have poor eyesight?" CLoud glances at RedVIII.


"Fuck, Clouds going to get us killed." Cid sighs.


"Well than we'll just go slowly but lets go."


The trio moves slowly down the mine shaft. And quickly it turns into more like a quarters. Hojo's lab, they had found it. The coridor turns into a row of doors. Several of them probably traps.


"So einstien which one?" Cid asks.


"This is taking to long. Sephiroth will be dead before we discover the right room." Cloud curses.


RedVIII wanders up the coridor. The scent here was clearer. Agian way to easy but Cloud wanted his son NOW.


"In here." RedVIII keeps his voice fustration free.


Cloud jogs up the halway to RedVIII. "Are you certian."


RedVIII glares at Cloud. Takeing that as a yes Cloud pounds down the door. RedVIII was right. It was the right room. Clouds blood freezes as he see's Sephiroth in a tank that was faintly glowing green from mako.


Cloud ignores RedVIII and Cids warnings and smashes his sword against the cage. It only cracked so Cloud hit it agian. This time a slimy clear liquid pouring across Cloud's boots and the floor. His son falls out in a tangle of wires and tubes. His skin was deathly cold.


"Sephiroth, Sephiroth."


Cloud shakes his soon. Soon Sephiroth's body cunvulces and pushes the liquid out of his lungs. Sephiroths eyes flicker than close. Fusterated Cloud pulls off the wires and tubes and moves his son away form teh poisons.


"Sephiroth come on wake up." Cloud urges. "Sephiroth."


Sephiroth's head rolls back and forth. Sephiroth tries to fight of the poisens in his system. The mako made it impossible.


Some one claps behind Cloud. Cloud sets down Sephiroth and faces his foe. Only than realizing why RedVIII and Cid shouted out.


"Congratulations find Sephiroth." Hojo's voice slices the air. "I don't know what Sephiroth is to you but I can see he's no longer your motal enemy."

\
"You leave him alone." Cloud growls and stands to protect his son.

]
"What are you two lovers. I'd swear that with you behavior."


Clouds eyes narrow. "You leave my SON alone. When you took him, you crossed the line."


"Your mistaken, I'm the one who fathered him." Hojo laughs.


"No you didn't. He's only 17 and he's my son. Your son in dead. He died a martar."


"You lie!"


Sephiroth eyes flicker and this time stay open. Faintly he can see Hojo facing his dad. His dad was in danger.


"Dad... Dad." Sephiroth croaks.


"Shhh, Sephiroth, you'll be home by your mom soon enouph." Cloud confrorts.


Hojo's face contorts with rage. He couldn't accept this. Fustrated and angrey he motions for the clone to leave RedVIII and Cid and attack CLoud.


Sephiroth watches helplessly as the clone fights his dad. He never knew his dad could move like that. But age and arthritis was agianst Cloud. The clone could block his every move. Soon the clone kicks CLoud into a table. Perching himself for the kill instatly as to waste no time.


Sephiroth rolls over and forces himself unto shakey feet, Nearly falling over once. The clone looks at Sephiroths glowing eyes and felt the masume pull from his hands. The sword flys across the room and into SEphiroth's hands. Sephiroths body twiches but remains steady.


"I am Sephiroth, you have crossed the line and will die."
