Part 2
"I don't believe it. . .Tristy is my mother?" Riku shook his in disbelief. "I. .no! I don't believe it one bit!" Riku kept shaking his head vigorously. He closed his eyes to fight off some tears, but some ran down his pale cheek. "How could. . .could she?! How could she not tell me?! I trusted her! I don't . . know anymore. . .how could she. How could she Aries?!" Riku flopped on his knees and arms, crying. He knew that he was going to find out something major, but nothing this major. Aries went to Riku. She kneeled down and placed her hands on his shoulders.
"She had her reasons Riku. If she would have told you from the very beginning, she knew in her heart that you wouldn't believe her. She was scared. And she did not know what to do."
"If she care so much about me, at least she could have told me some truth, instead of letting me finding it out by my self." Riku choked back angrily. Aries however, shook her head gently.
"You can't be mad at her, Riku. I know finding out the truth is hard, but Riku you must know about this. And you know that too, don't you?" The boy slowly nodded.
"Good. Now we must continue. There's a reason for all of this. Why Sephiroth is your father and why Tristy is your mother. . .the next path Riku, will be very hard on you. I suggest that you brace yourself. . .come, let's go." Aries helped Riku up, drying his tears off his face, and lead him to the next path, that would surely change his life. Riku held his head down the whole way on the next road of truth. For the first time in his life, Riku couldn't think of anything. He was so blunt and confused, that he didn't think. It was just too hard. And Aries said the next path is more harder, then what will Riku do? He had two choices. One, he could wake up being evil and let Jenvoa control him and take over the world, or two, he just follow Aries and find out the truth and live on with it. . .however, Riku thought, either way, I will be evil again. Jenvoa will conquer my body and use it like a toy, . . .just like my father. After a few minutes of walking down the path, Aries suddenly stopped. She slowly turned to the young boy and stared at him. She wanted to speak to him but nothing came out but "Try to keep a clear thought." and returned to walk. Closer and closer with each step, Riku feels horrid and sorrow at the same time. He didn't know why he felt this way, but he was sure that it was the next path was about to tell him something. Something so important, that he did not need to pass it up. With his chin held high, he walked through the invisible door.

"Tristy Cantala. Tristy Cantala. The doctor wishes to see you in his office, ASAP. I repeat, Tristy Cantala, the doctor wishes to speak to you in his office, ASAP." The man on the announcer said with a really deep and agonizing voice.
"Wow. The doctor wants to see you? It must be really important or a special important. Yeah that's it." one of the employees said to her.
"Yeah, it must be. . .I wonder what this is about?" Tristy said to a young lady who about the same age as the older woman. Tristy slowly puts down her documents, dusted off her khakis, put on her lab coat and headed towards the elevator to the B14 of the Shinra lab. When she reached the elevator, several of other scientist was already in there, punching in their destination floor number.
"B14 please."
"Sure thing." the slightly older man said. The two doors shut tightly as the elevator started to move. It's been a happy life for Tristy. She has a wonderful husband, that was quite the looker, a great job, that she would be crazy to quit, and the most happiest part of her life was her newborn that she gave a couple of months ago. Yes, everything was perfect. If it wasn't perfect, then what was it? She smiled at the thought, then looked at her hand. The one diamond ring that she would be wearing for the rest of her life. 'Sephiroth.' she thought playfully to herself. How long was it when they first laid eyes on each other. About 3 now. She chuckled and shook head. ' Boy that went fast. . .but it's worth it, though.' Yes. Perfect. Just perfect. Nothing could go wrong, until she heard the group of scientists talking. Quietly she listens in without getting notice.
"Hey, did you heard?"
"Heard what?"
"The doctor's new project?"
"Project? I thought that was just a rumor."
"A rumor? Please. That lunatic been working at that project for years now."
"Really?"
"Really. I also heard that doctor will use Group3645 T.U.W.M project and his secret project together."
"Wow. That's amazing! Who ever is in 3645 is lucky!"
"Tell me about it."
"Hey guys? What's the project name?"
"Geniva."
"Are you nuts? It's not called 'Geniva'! It's P. J. Project Jenvoa, genus!"
"Well, excuse me!"
"You're excused. . .hey you. What group your in?" Tristy turns around to face a middle aged man, with rugged blonde hair, a light blue coat, and black pants.
"3645."
"Wow! Really? That's freaking awesome! You're so lucky. You heard us right? Doctor will use his project and yours together. I mean, how great is that?" Tristy turns away from the man and stared straight ahead. She lowered her head and said nothing more. Tristy knew something was going on, but what? That was the answer. Ever since she started to work in Shinra and for Doctor/ scientist Hojo. And then, she began to wonder. Why she and her group was building the T.U.W.M.? Why, especially Hojo, relied on her so? She shook it off, coming to an conclusion that it was something that she didn't have to worry about.
By the time she got to Hojo's office, all of a sudden, she had a 6th sense. With her heart pounding in her chest, she causelessly knocked on the cold metal door. With the hissing sound of the sliver door opening, she went in.
Hojo, in his neatly pressed scientist coat, hair pulled back in a long ponytail, and dark brown shoes. He was sitting in his office typing, doing paper work, and looking at blue prints that was scattered everywhere. Tristy cleared her throat catching the older dark haired man attention. He fixed his glasses.
"You wanted to see me, sir?"
"Yes, yes. Please do sit down." The beautiful young woman sat down in front of Hojo's desk, like she has been asked. Sweating palms, a throbbing headache approaching, she swallowed hard. Hojo, however, stood up and started to pace around behind his desk. He stopped by the window looking out the outside world.
"Give me your status on the T.U.W.M." He said without looking. She sat there blanking in and out. She knew from the back of her mind, that she didn't want to tell the crazed scientist, but it was her duty to do so.
"Yes, sir. The Universal World Machine or the T.U.W.M, status is, good and will be ready to go as soon as the installer is put in."
"Good, good." With a sly smirked he continued. "Yes, its almost time."
"Almost time for what, sir, if you don't mind me asking."
"Project Jenvoa is almost completed as well. Soon both will combine to create an ultimate machine. We will be the most powerful thing, known to man, ever created. Thanks to a certain guinea pig that I need, the project will remain to a halt." Smiling again at this he chucked. But why, Tristy thought. She decided to ask something even though afraid of what she's going to hear.
"Hojo, what is exactly is Project Jenvoa? I mean. . what. ."
"Something that will change the world. I've been working on it for many years now, now I'm ready to resurrected." Fixing his glasses again he spoke. "Tell me how is your son?"
"My son. . ?" 'What the hell he wants to know about my son?' "My son is fine. . sir."
"Really? That's good. That's good indeed. You are dismissed, you may leave. I have some 'work' to be attending to." With a nod of the go ahead, the woman left his office. Hojo, still smiling, he went to his desk intercom, pressing lightly on the red button.
"Yatya."
"Yes, sir?"
"Were going to pay Mrs. Tristy Cantala an early visit tomorrow. Get everything prepared."
"Yes sir."
At home, Sephiroth was laying on the black leather couch wearing a black turtle neck, and black jeans, making car noises, to make new born laugh. Up, down, up, down the baby went laughing hard. In mid air, Sephiroth held him up and stared at the precious baby. He smiled gently and his eyes soften.
"One day, you will become a great fighter. So great, even your friends will admire your strength. You will be powerful, and hard to catch. I feel it in my heart. You will be just like me. .isn't that right, Riku?" with a bubbling sound from the younger version of Riku, Seph was guessing that was a yes. The general heard a loud bang of a closing door. He knew one thing, Tristy was home.
"Hey! Lets go visit mommy. Cause judging by the sound of how hard the door closed, she had a hard day. Come on lets go."
By night, Tristy had fixed dinner, took her bath, and was extremely tired. Dressing in a silk light brown gown, and Sephiroth dressed in boxers saying 'The Worlds Greatest Dad' Riku was soundly sleeping in a little bed next to her near the black sofa. Stoking the baby's cheek softly of the back of her hand, she sighed.
"He's an angel, isn't he?"
"Yes, he is. And quite the looker. . .he got those from me." The young woman chucked and shook her head. Once again she sighed.
"What's wrong, darling?" he was saying with a concerned look on his face.
"I don't feel like speaking of it."
"It may help." staring down at Riku, she again sighed in defeat.
"Its. . .Hojo."
"Hojo?"
"Yeah. . he was acting quite strange today."
"He act strange everyday."
"No. . . there was something different about him. . .the reason I'm saying this, is because he asked how Riku was doing. . .Seph. . .how did he know that we had a child?" The man shrugged, and it bugged him too. But he was going to say something, but Tristy kept on talking.
"Then he ranted about my groups project, and his project called Project Jenvoa, about being one to create something the man have never seen before. Then as soon I told him about my sons well being, he dismissed me all of a sudden, like he just cooked up something. Is he trying to plan something against our child?"
"If he touches our son, he's a dead man, but you need rest. As soon as I get back, we'll talk about the rest of this."
"When you get back? Where are you going?"
"To Neibleim. I have a mission to take care of something there. But it should it be long."
"Alright. . ."
"Hey, don't worry, Hojo won't do nothing to our child, okay? I'll see to it."
"Sure. . .I guess you're right."
"Good. . now let us get some sleep, I have to leave early in the morning." Tristy nodded. Cause she needed, but in the back of her mind, something was wrong, and something was about to happen tomorrow, with a gut feeling, she brushed it off, and went to bed. Not knowing how right she was going to be.
