do own a copy of FFVII, but that's about it…I don't own the
actual company who made it…
By the way, I think that some of
them may be OOC (out of character), so bear with
me…

Chapter 1:
Unforeseen Events…
(Vincent's Pov)
Hmm…I wonder
where I am…
(Flashback)
after the fight with Sephiroth, and
the world saved by Meteor, the group had headed out back to their
homes. This meant I had to go back to the Mansion…not that I didn't
like the mansion, it's just…I missed they're company, not that
I would admit it to them…not like they would really care about me…I
went home to the mansion, but I couldn't rest, travelling had
worked its way to my system, now it was refusing to leave…I
realised, only after leaving them, that I might not see her
again…
After deciding that hanging around the mansion wouldn't
do me any good, I picked up my gun and headed away from Nibelheim.
I
figured I would just walk around and see where I would end up, since
I had no destination in mind.
I just wandered the continent, and
found myself at Coral. This place really seemed to be coming back
together, with Barret's help, they were re-building the town, and
houses were being built.
I wandered through the town, and saw a
Bar, so I walked in and sat down at the counter.
'Anything I can
get you?' The bar man asked him…
'Just a glass of Red Wine
would be great' I replied.
I watched as the Bar Man poured out a
glass, and handed it to me. I gave my thanks, and handed him the
amount of money for it.
I drank the wine slowly, wondering where I
was going to head from here, when I saw the doors of the Bar open,
and who should come in but Barret himself.
'We got really far
today, didn't we?' A man standing next to him said.
'Yeah,
if we keep this pace up, the town will be rebuilt in no time!'
Barret shouted and came up to the Bar while the rest of them sat at a
fairly large table.
'Hey Barret! How's the work coming along
then?' The Bar Man asked him.
'Really well, Coral should be
back to normal soon' He explained.
'That's good news! Want
anything to drink before you join the rest of them?' He
asked.
'Sure, just give me the usual…' He replied…
Now
I wasn't sure what the usual was, but I figured it must be good; I
sat staring into the half empty wine glass, rotating it in a circle
slightly, so the wine was like a mini whirlpool.
I sighed, and
drank the rest of the wine, and placed it in front of me, then rested
my head on my arms…
I was almost asleep when I heard…
'Vincent,
is that really you?' I figured it had to be Barret; I lifted my
head and saw Barret smiled at me.
'Hey, Barret, how are you?'
I asked him…
We sat at the bar, just talking about what had
happened in the two years since the fight…since Barret heard from
most of them often, he could tell me what they had been up to…
Cloud
had set off for a way to bring Aeris back to our world.
He had
been helping rebuild Coral, and was doing really well.
Cid was
back in Rocket Town, with Shera and they were happily.
Nanaki was
at Cosmo Canyon, teaching the younger children about the Planet's
past, taken over his grandfather's role.
Yuffie was trying to
turn Wutai back into a Warrior town, instead of a tourist spot.
Cait
Sith/Reeve was back in Gold Saucer, thinking of new rides and
attractions.
Seems that everyone has built new lives for
themselves…hmm?
'What about Tifa?' I asked him…
With
this question Barret seemed quiet.
'To be honest, Vincent, I
don't know. No one has heard from her in these years…'
Tifa,
turned Silent? She was never like that, not in the time I knew her
anyway…
'Vincent…?'
'Oh, Sorry about that Barret, I'm
really sorry, but I have to get going soon…'
I offered my hand
'It was nice speaking to you again' Barret smiled and shook my
hand.
'It was good seeing you again, promise you'll keep in
touch?'
'Sure, until another day…' I waved and left the
Bar…
(End Flashback)
That was 1 month ago…and I still
haven't heard about Tifa yet, which has me slightly more
concerned
Where could she be?
I passed through Rocket Town a
couple of days earlier and aw Cid, he said that he hadn't heard
from her either…
This is strange...
The one
woman that I love, and I don't even know where she is…damn it, it
always has to happen doesn't it…
Yes, It does, doesn't
it, Vincent?
Who asked you? I snarled at the demon in my
head…
You did, stupid…
I didn't…I was thinking
to myself…
Well, I am in your head, so you were talking to
me as well, you know…
Oh, shut up…
Why?
Because,
I'm trying to think and you're not helping.
What a
pity…
Just shut up for once, would you?
…
Good.
I
returned to my trail of thought, trying to figure out where Tifa may
have gone.
Wait a minute. Her mother. She told me that she
visited the place where her mother died regularly. She may be there.
Good thinking, Vincent
Geez, can you not shut up for
two minutes?
Nope.
Shut up.
Blocking the demon's
voice for now, I started to head back toward Nibelheim,
And
towards Mt. Nibel.
I arrived at the base of Mt. Nibel, and headed
into the mountain. I came to the area that looked like it had one too
many pipes in it.
I climbed the ladders without any difficulty; I
reached the top of the area, and proceeded through the mountain,
taking out any monsters that got in my way without any problems.
I
came to where the rope bridge was, and frowned…
It was gone,
nothing there. I t looked as though it snapped, and most of it was at
the other end.
Damn It I thought.
What's wrong?
Aw
great, you're back.
I never left remember?
Well,
you'll have to move aside; I need Chaos to speak to him.
What?
You heard me.
I heard Gallian grumble, and
then all of a sudden, a deeper voice invaded my mind
what do
you want? The voice of Chaos demanded.
Yeah, nice to hear
from you too I thought sarcastically
what is it?
Well,
the bridge has been taken down, and I need get across.
Well,
then just jump across.
Uh, hello? I may be able to jump
farther that any human, but even I have my limits, and you're the
only one with wings
Whatever, Fine. Just leave me alone
afterwards.
Fine.
I let Chaos take control of my body, and
I took a backseat in my mind, I saw through Chaos's eyes that we
were travelling across the ravine. I felt us land, and I felt in
control of my body again, straight after we landed.
I starched my
neck a little, and then went to sit on a nearby rock waiting to see
if Tifa showed up…
3 Days Later
It was becoming apparent
to me had Tifa wasn't going to show up anytime soon…
(Tifa's
Pov)
Sigh…why does it have to like this? I'm all alone, I
have no memory…I can't remember, all I remember is a red cape,
after that my mind goes fuzzy…
I was sitting on a rooftop
looking over a beautiful town. I think of the townspeople called it
Wutai.
A young girl, by the name of Yuffie, had told me that she
knew who I was, I realised that I had lost whatever I knew in the
past, she thought she knew what the Red Cape was for…
But she
wouldn't tell me; she said that I would find out one day.
I
climbed down from the roof when one of the shopkeepers asked me to
help. She said to take these boxes to Yuffie's house as soon as
possible…
So here I was walking along with three boxes piled on
top of each other, when all I heard was 'Look Out' I looked up in
confusion, and all I saw was a dozen roof tiles falling, I tried to
moves, but the boxes were in my way, next thing I knew was darkness…
"Tifa? Tifa? Can you hear me?" A heard a voice in the
darkness…
"Huh?" I managed to get out in a whisper…
"Tifa?
Oh thank goodness you're awake!" Yuffie exclaimed.
"Yuffie?
What happened?" I asked in bewilderment…
She sat beside my
bed, and tried to explain to me…
"Well, you were bring boxes
to mine when some loose tiles fell from the roof, and hit you in the
head, we carried you to my house and bandaged you're head up, then
all we could do was wait of you to wake up, you were out for 5 days
straight…"
"Wow" I exclaimed…then I remembered
something, which kinda came to a shock to me.
"Yuffie?" I
asked
"Yeah?"
"Who's Vincent Valentine?" I asked
her…
(Vincent's Pov)
I was getting bored sitting around
waiting for someone to show up, and I was getting a cold too…
I
sneezed…
Great…
Aw, what's the matter,
Vincent?
Great, where you come back from? Realm of the living
dead?
Not really…
Whatever, I'm not the mood for
your attitude, shut up and leave me alone.
Before he had a
chance to react, I shoved the demon to the back of my mind.
I
jumped off the rock, and headed back through the mountain wondering
where to go next…
(Tifa's Pov)
"You're telling me you
remember Vincent?" Yuffie was practilly jumping up and down from
excitement,
"I remember a bit about him, where we met him, and
what he looks like, but that's about it…"
"I see"
Yuffie, in her joy, was doing cartwheels around the room.
"Yuffie,
I might not know that much about him, but something tells me that I
should seek him out, as soon as I get out of this bed, I'm leaving
Wutai to look for him…" I explained.
"Well, you're going
to need a golden chocobo, as I feel as though he's on the Main
Continent, across the ocean, good thing I have one waiting!" She
exclaimed.
"Well, I feel fine now, maybe I should set about
going…" I said...
"I don't think you're back to full
strength yet, but I know you'll be able to ride a chocobo…
She
led be out the room, out of her home, and round the back, where we
came to chocobo stable. There was a black chocobo, a blue chocobo and
a golden chocobo.
"Tifa, this is Serena, the chocobo you'll be
riding, she pleasant enough to ride, and should cause you any
problems"
I went over, and stroked the Chocobo's head and
scratched behind her ears.
"Wark!" She replied,
"Hehe, I
think you two are going to get on just fine" Yuffie
exclaimed…
After packing my things and saying goodbye, Serena
and I headed out, towards the east and hopefully where Vincent
was…
(Vincent's Pov)
I had made it back through the mountain,
and had decided to head towards Kalm, someone there may have heard
something...
You really, think so?
Yes, i
do
Really?
Yes, so shut up...
I just think
you're getting anxious to see her...
...whatever...
I
knew it! See, you've gone red...
I shoved the demon out of my
thoughts, so that i couldn't get anymore embarrassed as i was, i
walked towards Kalm, taking down anything that got in my
way...
(Tifa's Pov)
We had made it about halfway across the
ocean, i had pulled my hair free from my scruchie and let the wind
flow through it
Vincent, I'm coming she thought to herself...
Well, that's the first part? What you's think then?
