A Return From the Planet
Disclaimer: Final Fantasy is owned by Squaresoft, as are the characters contained within the game, so, enjoy the fiction, and remember, it's all in good fun.
Author's Note: The idea for this story came from reading other fanfics about the topic, I came to realize the version that I had come up with after the end of the game, was a little different than anything I have read yet. Please R & R and inside the review, tell me whether you think that it could have happened this way or not.
Prologue
In the Forgotten City, kneeling at the altar in the center of the city, is a woman, a beautiful woman clad in soft pink garments. She kneels with her eyes closed, praying to the planet, knowing her destiny and fate, but praying just the same, fear does not cross her as she knows the one she loves will soon be at her side, she wishes it did not have to happen this way, but she understands that her spirit must reach the planet, that she must return to the planet, for her wish to be heard. "Let me take care of Sephiroth" She remembers saying to Cloud as she wandered away, she knew he wanted to be with her, but also knew that she couldn't have him there. The planet told her it was time, as Cloud and the rest of their friends entered the crystal city through the passage above.
"Aerith!!" Cloud yells as he descends the stairway followed by his friends, still deep in prayer she kneels still, not wanting to ruin the prayer and her one shot at saving the world. Cloud hops the stepping stones and takes his steps towards her. A smile crosses her face, her prayer is finished, it will be complete, providing Sephiroth plays in to her hands, providing that he takes opportunity to destroy Cloud emotionally. Once again, she wishes it did not have to be this way, but she would make it up to him. She knew she would. From nowhere she hears in unison their friends yelling "CLOUD!!!"
Her eyes open as she looks up to Cloud, Cloud had almost killed her, she knew, but didn't care, her smile grew wider as she knew her time was now. Cloud looked up in horror as the blade of his Masamune is run through her midsection, her smile remains, she knows now, she has saved the planet, she has deceived Sephiroth in to undoing his own plans by killing her, treating her self as a pawn baiting for the queen in a game of chess.
She falls in to Cloud's arms the smile still on her face, knowing her mission was accomplished, she closes her eyes and gently returned to the planet, taking with her, the hopes and wishes of all of the planet, taking them to the planet.
