Chaos: Chapter3- Jenovas Secret Past
Everyone wandered the forest searching Aeris occasionally stopped to look around the forest it was a beautiful forest which was why she couldn't help but stop and look at it every so often it was so full of life and Midgar had been so full of death and decay it was such a drastic change bugs were flying around crawling on trees and such birds were chirping. Even frogs were present somewhere in this dense forest however also roaming the woods were remnants of the mako reactors monsters created by exposure to mako though they weren't very strong or much of a threat it was still good to keep an eye out for them. Cloud always stayed close to Aeris it made Tifa a little uncomfortable but it was understandable he was afraid of losing her again with Jenova running around somewhere in this forest. They came across the old Shinra HQ but found nothing of any intrest inside.
Elsewhere in the forest Jenova had come across some treasure hunters searching for the old shinra hq hoping to find some valuable secrets or something but instead all they got was a slow death.
Aeris sensed this act of Violence
"there's death in the forest" She said suddenly
cloud and Tifa stopped
"which way?" Cloud asked
"Follow me." Aeris replied and they hurried off in the direction.
Elsewhere Sephiroth felt the disturbance too
"Somethings wrong I feel death in the air." Sephiroth said
"I smell blood" Vincent said sniffing the air.
Yuffie just looked on dumbfounded by their extraordinary senses.
"So which way?" she asked.
"Just follow us." Sephiroth said as him and Vincent took off in the direction.with yuffie struggling to keep up
Jenova knew Sephiroth would sense this and come running she had deliberately done it to throw him of course how ever Jenova didn't yet know that Aeris was alive as well She hurried off knowing it wouldn't take long for sephiroth and whoever was with him to get there.
Sephiroth Vincent Yuffie Cloud Aeris and Tifa Got to the site at the same time and found the bodies of the two treasure hunters mutilated.
"poor bastards they wander in looking for treasure and only find a gruesome death." Vincent aid looking at the bodies.
"Come on lets go split up again Jenovas not here and probably is getting ahead of us in searching." Cloud said
"but what about..." Aeris started
"We don't have time to bury them or anything maybe later we'll come back for them okay sis?" Sephiroth said already about to start on his way
Aeris just nodded understanding the urgency of their situation and followed Cloud glancing back at the bodies one last time and whispering a brief prayer.
Jenova wandered amidst the rubble and trees wondering where could Lucratia be she could since her but for some reason it felt like lucratia was all around her she couldn't pin point her location. Then suddenly Jenova had an idea she knew of midgar and its dirty ways and she thought of the last place a person in midgar would go to a church that's where lucratia would be. And then she was off in search of a church she knew there was at least one in this once god-forsaken city.
Sephiroth felt Jenovas pace quicken and he could sense she was in a hurry to find something though he wasn't sure he figured she had found lucratia
"Follow me and hurry I think Jenovas found her." He said suddenly and ran off with Vincent right behind him and yuffie falling behind as usual.
Cloud was tired of wandering aimlessly there had to be some key to finding lucratia so he decided to ask Aeris.
"Hey Aeris if you were hiding out in midgar where would you go?" he asked.
"Well that's easy the church of course remember?" She said smiling at him. Remembering how he'd fallen through the roof there only to become her body guard a short while later. She remembered thinking then he had been her guardian angel or fallen straight from the skies and was sent to save her his timing was impeccable and he did come from the sky even he had to admit to that.
"Well Lets go there then maybe we'll get lucky and she'll think like you do." Tifa said speaking up for the first time since they'd set off.
They all hurried off Cloud Aeris and Tifa got to the church just a little to late Jenova was already there and Lucratia was in her grasp.
"H...help...me." Lucratia managed to croak out.
The three of them rushed jenova to try and save lucratia.
"Fools your much too late I've already begun!" Jenova said and as she spoke Sephiroth Vincent and Yuffie got there.
"Oh no we're too late!" Vincent said "We must kill them before it is to late then." Sephiroth said "But if we kill one we kill both now!" Vincent said reluctant to attack.
"Well that's to bad but we've got no other choice" Sephiroth replied charging in Vincent tried to stop him but he was already going before Vincent could do anything.
Sephiroth leaped through the air over cloud who was about to make an attack and slashed Jenovas tentacles that were surrounding lucratia unfortuneately it was just a split second to late Lucratias body disappeared as he cut through
"Damnit! If only I'd gotten here a little sooner!" He yelled.
"HAHAHAHAHahahahAHAHAHahhaha But you didn't!" Jenova said laughing hard as her body began to change she was surrounded by a glow and was soon enveloped by light then moments later he body seemed to shatter like a shell when the light faded a beautiful girl was left standing there she looked to be about 20 she had long green hair and amber colored eyes her skin was a light brown and was completely free of any blemish of any kind her beauty stunned them all except for Tifa Aeris and Yuffie everyone else seemed to be hypnotized by her.
"Hello I'm Jenotia (pronounced Je-No-She-uh or Jeno-Sha) I am the true form of Jenova and lucratia. Nice to meet you all." She said cheerfully.
"Ah it's so nice to be whole again...free again" She said stretching
Aeris smacked cloud on the back of his head "Stop starring at her breasts!" she yelled But cloud didn't really react except mumbling
At that Jenotia looked at herself ad realized that she had been standing there nude
"Oh my! Excuse me!" Jenotia said picking up the clothes lucratia had and putting them on the top didn't quite fit right as her chest was larger than lucratias and it was a tight fit. "This should do for awhile." She said
Cloud finally snapped out of his haze
"And why were we trying to stop her from forming again? She seems nice to me." Cloud said
"If you ask me we're better off now." Tifa seconded.
Vincent went forward towards her. "Jenotia we meet again." He said kneeling before her.
"Vincent what're you doing? And what do you mean 'again'?" Yuffie asked.
"Vincent is my knight he is my guardian against any threat to me. He has been for many many years when I separated into two parts he was charged with guarding my better half."
"whoa so Vincent is really really really old? And that means you never told us the whole truth Vincent!" yuffie yelled at him.
"Yes that's right I'm sorry." He said standing. "I couldn't have told you then you wouldn't have understood. And besides I thought I'd never see Jenotia again Jenova was supposed to be dead and Lucratia was no where to be found though part of me now misses her I did fall in love with her but she still is right here with us as part of Jenotia."
Aeris knew something wasn't right Vincent wouldn't have been so desperate to stop Jenotias reformation if she was really kind and good or if he was her knight the only reasoning he had so far that made any since would have been lucratia. But now he was saying it didn't matter? Was he afraid of her?
Sephiroth was trying to absorb all this new information. But not to much avail it was too much to understand at one time even for him.
Jenotia noted the expressions and stares and continued to explain "I Jenotia am a member of a royal family and probably the last member by now. I was sent from my home to this world but somewhere in between something went wrong when I arrived I wasn't myself I was corrupted as if by the universe itself you see my people are very sensitive to the desires of the planet and of the universe just as the cetra were however something changed me I'm not sure what when or where but I did change eventually I quarantined it within myself trapped and suppressed it but eventually it broke free And I was forced to split myself into two beings in order to avoid becoming completely corrupted That evil is Jenova She is a being created from the wicked desires of the universe lucratia was created from all that was still good within me and now that the two have merged again I've become myself again however when you interfered it ruined it the others are still here within me I can feel them though it is better than having been let to reform as Jenova would be the one in control right now not I but now it will be a battle within to control this body. You'll know when a shift in power occurs my appearance will change I'm not sure how it will or who will go with what change but you already know what I look like so there's one down just figure out the other two and don't let jenova fool you and you should be fine." She explained
"Well that's quite a story but what is the name of your race? Why were you sent from your home world? And where does Vincent fit in?" Sephiroth asked more curious than anyone
"Ah I knew you'd ask those questions we are the reisen a race directly related to the cetra and I was sent from them along with some others in hopes of esaping a virus wich was plaguing our world making our people violent and ignorant they lost touch with themselves and the ability to speak to the planet many of them took on warped forms such as you've seen in Jenova I suppose that means I too was infected before my departure though that should not be the case it was a virus that acted quickly...." She tried to explain but was finding some things she herself didn't know the answers to.
Sephiroth seeing her at a loss to explain Jenova or the virus figured she didn't know either. "I see I geuss Jenova is the only one that knows then." He said
"I suppose your right." Jenotia replied.
"and as for Vincent he came into this after I arrived on earth haven't you ever wondered why he had such extensive knowledge of the Ancients And what was going on? Its because he has existed for nearly a millennium." Jenotia said
Aeris wondered why Vincent had never bothered to mention that to her but maybe it was just because she hadn't lived long enough then for him to tell her.
"Wait a second....how could he have been around that long? He told us he had only first heard of jenova when he was at shinra." Cloud asked finnaly finding his ability to speak.
"That's only partially true" Vincent answered
"Though I did tell you that I didn't tell you that as I am now I am really to beings combined I myself was an experiment I did tell you that didn't I? Well the truth is the original me was a knight serving the royal family I was sent with Jenotia to earth however like her I was infected somehow and became one of the monsters Jenotia spoke of that were warped and lost touch with the planet the other me was a human whose name I've taken on the experiment was to combine the two to make the perfect soldier I was a prequel to the creation of Sephiroth. My human half didn't really have a choice in the matter he was a member of the turks and as such was obligated to do what shinra wanted my true self only wanted to destroy the vile humans it saw before it and even once the merging was originally completed my true selfs will persisted and I was very destructive however eventually parts of my human self began to show through and the merging became more than just physical but mental as well I have the memories of two lifetimes in my head" Vincent explained
"Wow....I never knew I never had any idea..." Aeris said "So all this time and you never told us...why?" Tifa asked
"Simple for one I didn't trust you all enough to tell you everything secondly it was important to keep my past secret I couldn't let such things be known to the world. And thirdly I hadn't fully pieced together my shattered memories until after we all had separated by the time we reunited on the anniversary of Aeris death I didn't think it was important anymore." Vincent explained.
They continued asking their questions and occasionally dealing with Jenotia's personality shifts until they were satisfied with the answers everything seemed to be explained and all was well another journey over as simple as a open and closed book right? Wrong They didn't know it yet but deep in the reaches of space in a pod a life awoke sensing the revival of his love
"She lives again I Must go to her." A Voice in the blackness said and it began to move slowly shifting awakening and it was set to head to earth. To find Jenotia to find his lost one to have what was his again.
End Chapter 3
Muhahahaha aren't I just the most evil bastard in the world with these cliff hangers? What? I'm not? Darn oh well I know I may have lost a few of you with the secret pasts of Jenotia and Vincent well at least Vincents anyway but Jenotias makes perfect sense if you really think about it because it's never been explained EVER by ANYONE where Jenova came from or what the hell she is so you gotta gimme credit for that right? Anyways...
Next chapter chapter4- Marduke – its gonna get a whole lot crazier.....
Everyone wandered the forest searching Aeris occasionally stopped to look around the forest it was a beautiful forest which was why she couldn't help but stop and look at it every so often it was so full of life and Midgar had been so full of death and decay it was such a drastic change bugs were flying around crawling on trees and such birds were chirping. Even frogs were present somewhere in this dense forest however also roaming the woods were remnants of the mako reactors monsters created by exposure to mako though they weren't very strong or much of a threat it was still good to keep an eye out for them.
