Dark-Sephiroth: See? Little froggy go Squish! Ha Ha Ha!
Squall: Great. I'm a character in a story written by a nutcase. Whatever.

Cloud: Arghh!!!!
(And now, at last we continue. If you haven't reviewed, I forgive you. For now..*evil grin*)
Cloud, Auron, Squall and Rinoa step into the time streaming chamber. There is a devious grin upon Dumah's face as he sets the device, slowly he sets the machine to throw the group as far into the future as possible. There is a pause as he finishes, and the group vanish in a blast of light. Then, with a lightning fast leap, Kain and his five sons leap forth and they too disappear with a flash.
But Kain had thought very little over the consequences of his actions. He had instructed Dumah to throw the group so far into the future that the time streaming device had overloaded. Unknown to all there was a blinding light that grew brighter and brighter until the device shattered, sending a wave of energy in all directions. This wave of energy was similar to the one that summoned Cloud and the others, It could disrupt the time/space continuum. And that's exactly what it did. Years into the past, just awakened by Umah, Kain caught his first glimpse of Meridian in two hundred years. A wave of energy knocked the two of them flat, throwing them with great force into a nearby wall.
(Fledgling)Kain: *picks himself up slowly* Ungh! What manner of sorcery was that?!
Umah: It is not like anything I have encountered. But it is doubtlessly work of the Sarafan.
Kain: Could this be the glyph energy you mentioned, I had little idea that the Sarafan had grown so powerful.
Umah: Perhaps. In any case, we must exercise extreme caution from now on.
Kain and Umah continue through the streets of Meridian. Further ahead are several people in strange clothing, all are armed. Upon seeing these people, Kain and Umah cautiously advance. The first person has only just arrived, and he sees a girl kneeling before him. She wears a pink and red dress and has long brown hair. She appears to be praying.
Zidane: *grins* Jeez! Have I died and gone to heaven! What a cutie! *approaches Aeris* Uhh, hi there.
Aeris looks up towards Zidane and seems puzzled. They look at each other for a brief moment. Then a man in a long black cloak descends rapidly with an immensely long sword.
Zidane: Whoa, look out!! *pushes Aeris to safety*
Sparks fly as Sephiroth's sword strikes the cobbled streets. He slowly rises with deadly intent, but a look of puzzlement also takes control of his features. He then sees Aeris and smiles at her, his face is pure evil.
Sephiroth: My little puppet, don't think illusions and bodyguards can help you to escape your fate.
Aeris: These illusions are not mine. Can't you sense it? This is another world, I can hear this planet cry out in pain as it withers and decays.
Zidane: Wow! You can hear the planet? *Whispers to himself* Damn, she's hot and psychic!
Sephiroth: Ah, the saviour bodyguard. It seems Aeris has acquired an annoying little protector. Know this mortal, she is mine, and I will kill her.
Zidane: *rushes at Sephiroth* Not if I can help it!
Sephiroth catches Zidane as he charges, picks him up by the tail and hold him up high with one hand. Zidane struggles ineffectually.
Sephiroth: Hmm. he is not of my planet either. Indeed, he is like that other failure, created as a worthless puppet. *pokes Zidane with sword*
Zidane: *struggles even more* How about the useless puppet kicks your butt!! *reaches forth and uses steal* Ohh, shiny! what's this?
Sephiroth: My materia!! *grabs materia back, smashes Zidane against the ground and stands on his head* Masamune will make you pay for that!
Sephiroth raises his sword but is interrupted by the arrival of Kain and Umah. The two vampires had noticed the arguments and had sneakily approached, intending to kill by stealth but Aeris spots them and shouts to the others. Seeing this Sephiroth assumes battle position and Zidane leaps to his feet, pulling out his twin daggers, Orichalon.
Umah: They have spotted us! Kain, you must flee, the Sarafan are strong fighters and you are in no state to fight.
Kain: Run! Flee! What do you take me for woman! I am no coward!
Umah: You will be more useful to the Cabal alive. *Kain is about to argue but Umah teleports him away*
Umah reveals her claws and hisses. Instantly Sephiroth swings a lethal slash with his sword but Umah dodges it with Vampiric agility. Then she leaps at Zidane and swipes at him. The impact slaps at Zidane's face.
Zidane: Jeez! Rejected already?! I haven't even asked you out yet! (not that I'd want to either)
Umah hits Zidane a few times more until he gets angry and slashes her powerfully with his daggers. Umah is sent rolling backwards but manages to slowly rise to her feet.
There is a hissing, steam, sound from behind and Aeris is surrounded by green energy. Umah whips round but is suddenly engulfed by a seething mass of blue light which rolls in from all directions. At the centre it gathers into a great ball of power that seems to draw in more blue light, glowing brighter and brighter. Then finally at its peak of power, the ball of energy explodes, sending out a shockwave and millions of twinkling blue sparkles.
The white materia glows in Aeris' weapon. Umah lies dead, covered in many, many bleeding wounds. All is silent.
Sephiroth: *thinking* (Crap, Holy!! I'll never kill her now, damn that stupid monkey!)
Zidane: Monkey! I hate that name!
Sephiroth: I said that out loud?!
Aeris: *smiles* Don't be mean, I think that tail's really quite cute!
Zidane: *thinking* (jeez, she likes me for sure!) Hey! Aeris, when I get back home how about you and me go for a cruise on an airship? Lindblum's quite a sight from above.
Aeris: Ugh! I hate airships, they put smoke in the air and hurt the planet!
Zidane: But this one runs on steam! *discards Garnet from his mind* We can sit together and admire the view.
Aeris: Hmm., I was going to go on one with Cloud once. *sighs* I wonder if Cloud's here. I shouldn't have run off on him.
Sephiroth: *Sarcastically* That's all fine but wouldn't it help if we (preferably I) got home to our own planets?
Aeris: But how?
Zidane: Hey, lets look around, we might find something.
Aeris, Sephiroth and Zidane, after some discussion, agree to look around. The three team up and become (temporary) allies. They decide to find the pale skinned man (Kain) and see if he has any information on how they got here.
Meanwhile.
Cloud, Auron, Squall and Rinoa find themselves stuck in a world definitely not their own. It is black and raining and dreary. Seeing they have no way of getting back they decide to explore. Ruined buildings are all around them, they seem familiar in some way. The group look around at them, oblivious of a creeping shadow nearby. As the shadow draws nearer it draws a sword. Raziel, the first of Kain's sons approaches to make the primary assassination attempt. He is closer, nearly there.
Then at the last minute a voice halts him. A creature steps out of the shadows, disbelief is evident in its eyes. It has blue muscles with apparently no skin, hooves and three huge claws on each hand. Around its mouth and shoulders is a brown cloth.
Spectral Raziel: Myself, here!? This can't be!!
And elsewhere Kain's eyes are reeling as new memories unfold in his brain. He knows of Umah death and of his own fate. He teleports instantly, leaving his four remaining sons puzzled and amazed.
Another chapter done! Three more characters end up in Blood Omen 2 time and Kain's memories change as he realises his new fate (what could that be?). Aeris is alive. Raziel meets himself in Spectral form and Kain's sons are left stranded and alone. *phew!* What could happen next? Chapter 6 coming soon!
