Author's Notes: First of all, I don't presume to own any of the characters discussed in this and the following stories. Plus, I have no money, so don't sue. Second, this will likely be a rather long story, once done. The first two posts are teasers of a sort, introducing the characters. It's a rare, if ever before used pairing. Yay for being original. ^_^ After the first two, I'll wait to post more, doing so only if I a get good response to them. *Hint hint* On with the story! Cookies for anyone who can guess who the peoples are before it's stated!

Aquamarine eyes slowly fluttered open, taking a moment to focus. What was this place? It certainly didn't look familiar. A long fingered hand rose slowly, brushing back a few strands of long silver hair, the tips coming away stained red. At the sight, memories slowly began to seep back, only fueling the blossoming headache starting to throb behind the closing eyes. A battle. Something about the fate of the planet. Murders. It all seemed to flow together, hard to catch, as if the memories had come one who had been fevered. Or mad. Suddenly the image of a blonde warrior burned bright, standing determinedly, deep blue eyes holding confidence and ferocity. Cloud. With a groan, Sephiroth bowed his head, lifting both hands to his temples to try and rub away the growing migraine, huddled where he sat.
