The day was very catastrophic as the rain and lightning bursted into the planet. Just another wound on the outskirts of Midgar. This painful wound is a battlefield for the up and coming members of SOLDIER. Sephiroth is going to battle one of the Turks on this irreverent day. This is his entrance exam. Reeve of the Turks is his opponent. Both so young but have advanced knowledge of the planets' secret magic, Materia and the stress of battle. Reeve took out his megaphone and went into his battle stance, "Sephiroth, huh? What a strange name. Is it true you're a bastard child?" Sephiroth, unintimidated by Reeve's words took out his gun and loaded it up with bullets. Reeve of the Turks took out a pair of dice then charged at Sephiroth. He threw them at him and it hit Sephiroth right between the eyes. Though Sephiroth was blinded he stood his ground. Reeve was inches away as he got ready to attack Sephiroth with his megaphone. Right before the megaphone hit, Sephiroth moved out the way. Reeve fell face first into the ground. "Fire2." Reeve said while his hand glowed an illuminating bright green. A devastating ball of fire appeared over Sephiroth and dropped right on him. The floor and Sephiroth were both scorched. " I guess I over did it." Reeve got up and wiped the sand off his pants. Unimpressed by this the judges went on their way to Midgar until they heard a voice say, "Pale Horse." They looked back and saw Sephiroth walk right out of the flames. He lifted up his right hand and fired an attack at Reeve. It hit him point blank. Reeve's face hit the ground once more, but this time he didn't get up. "Sephiroth has won." The judges announced. "Prepare yourself for tomorrow. Your trials will commence." Weak-kneed Sephiroths' knees hit the ground. "I will become a member of SOLDIER. I will prove Hojo wrong. And I will find my mother"
A day after the completion of the entrance exam, Sephiroth and 3 other young elites have been sent to the Chocobo ranch. They are to wait outside for their new leader, Alister. While they were there they decided to walk a little. "No, we can't cross unless we're riding a Chocobo." One of the soldiers exclaimed. Sephiroth shrugged and continued onward towards Mythril Mine. As soon as his foot touched the marsh a serpent's shadow hung over him. Sephiroth looked up and saw a large snake-like monster. "It's the Midgar Zolom!" one of the men screamed out. They all started to run to the Chocobo ranch, Sephiroth was fearless. He pointed his gun at the monster and started shooting. The monster was immune; this made Sephiroth flinch a little. A figure jumped on top of the serpent and unsheathed his long sword, "are you all crazy! Trying to pick a fight with a Midgar Zolom with your low levels? Hmph!" The man stabbed Zolom's neck. The blood bursted out and fell all over Sephiroth. The man kept on attacking and slashing away. The serpent flayed, but he couldn't get the warrior off his back.. His sword went right through Zolom's eye. The Zolom screamed in terror then finally got the man off. The serpent fled to the Mythril Mines after that. The man jumped down and landed on one knee. Everyone looked back and wondered who their savior was. The man stood up and said, "wow my students are a bunch of idiots!" Sephiroth stared deep into this young mans' eyes and replied, " you're Alister? (What a weirdo. He's got no eyebrows)". Alister scoffs. "And you all are my crew? This freaken sucks!"
Minutes later...
"So, what's our 1st trial?" Sephiroth asked right away while he cleaned off Zolom's blood. Alister smiled then took a Materia out of his pocket. "THIS!" Sephiroth groaned, "Materia? Are you serious?" Alister blew on the Materia and a button popped up, "all I have to do is push this button and off it goes!" He pushed the button, the Materia was bouncing all over the place. Alister took out 3 more and pressed their buttons. "Haha! This is fun!" One Materia was bouncing close to Sephiroth until it bounce into his left eye. "MY EYE!" Sephiroth shouted. "That was so worth it!" Alister laughed and pounded his thigh in excitement. "Now all you guys hafta do is catch these bouncing bundles of joy." Everyone sighed. Alister simply sat in the truck and watched the young elite attempt to catch the Materia.
