Chapter 7
More trouble is on the horizon
The next day Cloud walked out of the house and he was making his way to the near by lake for a drink. Cloud walked pass the tree that Inuyasha slept in and was thinking "how the hell could he sleep up there without falling?" Cloud continued onto lake where he walked into Sango and Yuffie. "Good morning you two" Cloud said as he passed them. "Hey Cloud" Yuffie replied. "What have you two been up to" Cloud asked. "Yuffie has been telling me all about Wuati" Sango replied. "Yeah, but she has been asking questions about Jenova though" Yuffie replied. "Why are you curious about Jenova Sango" Cloud asked.
"The things about Jenova Yuffie has told me about her reminds me of a powerful ancient demon I heard about as child that existed thousand of years ago" Sango said. "In fact Sango said she wanted to check out that cave we came out of later today" Yuffie said. "Hey mind if I tag along" Cloud asked. "Sure why not. I will see you guys after I have a drink at the river" Cloud said as he continued on his way to the river.
While Cloud continued on his way a thought pass through his mind thinking "Cloud that portal in that cave have a connection with Jenova."
Meanwhile at Naraku's castle Naraku had returned with the Tenseiga and he handed it to Jenova to use. "A sword that the demon Sesshomaru thought was useless will now help me bring to life my new servant" Jenova said as she pulled the sword out its Scabbard. She walked over to the body she had floating in the tub full of Mako with a white sheet covering it. The body in the tub had been dead for two years, but because of the conditions of the body's burial site there was little decay. Jenova recovered the body after the Meteor incident and has kept it in a pool of Mako to keep the body from decaying completely.
She was incapable of reviving the body on her own since the soul had departed from it. But thanks to the alliance she made with Naraku a few weeks ago she had the means to revive the body. During the two years she laid low waiting for the planet to become even weaker because of the lost of energy it suffered because of meteor. Now the time was right for her revenge, and this woman would be her instrument of her revenge.
Jenova did a vertical cut with the blade of life across the body while at the same time Kanna released the soul she recovered from the lifestream. The soul reentered the body and a few seconds later the heart within the once dead body was beating once again. The body rose up holding the sheet that covered it. Before anything else could happen Jenova's hands turned into tentacles and they seized the resurrected woman by the throat.
"Where I am" the woman was barely able to say because of the tentacles around her neck. "My dear you have been brought back to life" Jenova said. "Who are you and why are you doing this to me" the woman asked. "Oh poor Certa you do not recognize me. Your people failed to get rid of me long ago and so did your friends" Jenova replied coldly. "Jenova" the woman replied. "So good of you to remember me considering you have been dead for two years Aeris" Jenova replied as her eyes started glowing red. "You revived me so you could kill me again is that it" Aeris replied. "No I have something more sinister in mind for you. Since your friends crippled Sephiroth he is useless to me. I need a new servant and guess who I picked" Jenova said as an evil smile appeared on her face.
"What are you doing to me" Aeris asked. "I am filling your bloodstream with my blood and since you have been soaking in Mako for two years I am molding you into another Sephiroth you say" Jenova said. "You are what" Aeris asked with a look of horror on her face. "Once my cells and the Mako energy is infused with you I will control you as I did Sephiroth. Your first act will be to kill your friends" Jenova said. "I will never do such a thing" Aeris replied boldly. "Who said you will have a choice in the matter. You will obey me one way or another" Jenova said as she injected more of her cells into Aeris.
Naraku and Kanna decided to leave the room to let Jenova tend to the Certa. Naraku and Kanna needed to give out the other Materia he had gotten to Kanna and Kagura. As Naraku went though the Materia he heard Aeris's screams echoing though the castle.
Later back near the cave where the portal was. Sango, Yuffie and Cloud were walking back up there to check it out. They reached the cave a few minutes later as Sango and Yuffie started checking it out for anything that might explain how this cave was created. Cloud was searching the walls inside the cave for anything as well. Finally Sango found something on the ground under some rocks. "Hey check this out" Sango said as she held up an old stone with some writing on it. "What is that" Yuffie asked. "This is sealing spell used by monks to seal away demons. Judging by this one this spell was meant for a very powerful demon. It looks very old and this spell was meant to seal a demon away in the world beyond this one. In other words the monk who tired to send a demon to hell must have somehow accidentally opened up a portal to your world and never knew it" Sango said as she examined the stone more closely. "DO you think something went wrong" Cloud asked. "Most likely; maybe he said the spell wrong or something else that might have happened here could have cause the spell to back fire or caused the creation of this portal" Sango replied.
"Then it may be possible that Jenova came from this world then" Cloud said. "It looks that way. Besides how else could she have known about the portal" Sango replied. "If Jenova is from this world then why did she come back and what is Sephiroth doing here" Yuffie asked. "Well it is safe to say that Sephiroth is looking for a way to restore his ability to walk that is one thing we do know the question is how" Cloud said while holding his chin trying to think.
"Then he must be after the Shikon jewel so he could use it to restore his ability to walk" Sango said. "What dose this Shikon jewel do" Cloud asked. "If the jewel is put back together then it can grant the wish of who ever holds it" Sango replied. "So that's it" Yuffie said. "But I doubt Sephiroth will be able to find all of the shards that are scattered throughout the country. Only Kagome can locate the Shikon jewel shards" Sango told Cloud. "Then finding the shards will be almost impossible for Sephiroth then right" Yuffie said. "Right not unless he found a way to locate them" Sango said. "Let's hope he doesn't" Cloud said. "We better head back the others are probably wondering where we are at" Sango said. "Good idea" Cloud said as they all left the cave to return to the village.
About an hour later Yazu came through the portal on a gold chocobo carrying two large bags and a large can on his back. He was soon followed by Loz on a black chocobo carrying a similar load as well. The two rode back towards the wolf tribe's home while staying clear of the village.
Later they reached the wolf tribe's cave as Loz and Yazu unloaded their cargo. Yazu was carrying Materia and accessories and a can of Mako energy in the can on his back. Loz was carrying weapons, armor and Mako energy in a can as well. After three trips they had brought enough weapons, armor and materia for the six tribes. The Mako was being used to fill a small metal pool for the wolf tribe members to bath in so they could gain the benefits of Mako infusion. They brought many kinds of different weapons for the wolf tribe and Koga had taken as his weapons after a good Mako bath was a crystal glove. The armor he picked was Shinra Alpha and as his accessory was a ribbon.
The Materia Koga picked out for his weapon was Added effect with time, deathblow, counter materia, Ice and Neo-Bahamut. For his armor he picked out restore, fire, Ultima, barrier, heal and Destruct. Koga was trying out his new power he gain and he was enjoying it allot. His other tribesmen were also enjoying the new abilities Sephiroth has given them. Sephiroth sat inside the airship with Kadaj. "Sephiroth is it wise to make these wolf tribesmen more powerful, and what about their leader who has two shards of the jewel" Kadaj asked.
"We need there help to find the other shards and a way for me to regain my ability to walk, so I may be at my full strength once more. They will do our work for us while we sit back and wait" Sephiroth replied. "Well it was a good thing that Cloud and his friends kept two chocobos on board this ship otherwise bringing the Materia, armor, accessories and weapons would have been a difficult task. Nevertheless I do like the idea of the wolf tribe doing the searching for us" Kadaj replied. "Indeed; all we do now is wait. Once they have the jewel shards for us we'll think of a way to get Koga's when the time comes" Sephiroth said as he looked out the window of the Highwind. Outside Loz and Yazu were watching the wolf tribesmen trying out their new abilities. "I think that Koga fellow had you" Yazu mocked. "Ha I could have Ultima on him and wasted his ass" Loz replied. "What do you think we might do now" Yazu asked. "I don't know" Loz replied.
Back at the village Inuyasha, Cloud, Kagome, Tifa, Cid, Red XIII, Yuffie, Sango, Barret, Vincent, Shippo, Miroku and Kirara were walking down a road on one of their adventures to find the jewel shards. Cloud and the others knew that if Sephiroth was looking for the jewel shards then they might encounter him if they tag along with Inuyasha and his group.
Cloud, Sango and Yuffie told them about what they found at the cave. Miroku was examining the stone Sango found as they went along down the road. Inuyasha was walking ahead of the group with Cloud right behind him. Red XIII was in the middle of the group and Shippo was hanging out with him. Cloud was troubled by what they found at the cave. "If Sephiroth and Naraku had no knowledge of the cave, but if what Sango said is true then the one who might have told Naraku about the cave is Jenova. But why would Jenova leave her son out of it and tell Naraku about the cave. Unless she is planning something" Cloud thought as they continued down the road never knowing that trouble was soon over the horizon as the group never noticed that they were being watched by one of Naraku's wasps.
