Chapter 5
Nefilim stared at the place where his mother had been moments earlier.
Aeris couldn't believe her eyes. He had actually believed her! He really still did have some love in his heart. "So uh… now that you've met your mother, can we move on?"
The man nodded. "Yes."
"We still have some time before we have to leave." Aeris said.
"Leave? To where?"
"We've been talking about it this whole time and you don't know!" Aeris exclaimed, waving her arms in front of his face. "The Lifestream to Destructivus! The Promised Land!"
"Oh." Nefilim nodded. "Continue."
Aeris sat down and motioned for the man to do the same. Destructivus did as he was told and she began. "I'm sure you would like to know more about us Cetra before we go to the Promised Land?"
"Yes. Why is Jenova coming after the Cetra? Isn't your kind all dead? How can they be killed again?"
"Jenova has all her powers back. The last time AVALANCHE fought her, she was still weak from being buried underground for so long. She managed to cast a spell on the Promised Land so that anyone in there that dies, will be dead forever." Aeris look over at the silver-haired man. "That's why we need your help. Otherwise… we could just simply lock her away in the Promised Land."
Nefilim thought for a moment. Cast a spell in the Promised Land? With the full power of the Cetra? How can that be? Could Jenova really be that powerful? "How can I help? I'm not powerful enough to even beat AVALANCHE! How am I supposed to be beat something as powerful as Jenova?"
"You can defeat Jenova, I'm sure you can." Aeris said. "The answer's in your heart."
"What answer in what heart?" Nefilim scoffed. "I don't have one."
"Of course you do!" Aeris yelled, then sighed and shook her head. "And one more thing… before we go… you have to promise me one thing."
Nefilim nodded. "Whatever you want me to promise you."
"That you will try to not to listen to Jenova, whatever she does and that you will cooperate with every person I introduce you to." Aeris said.
"Alright, I promise." Nefilim said. "Let's go."
"Oh and one more thing… try not to get hurt. In the Promised Land, Jenova has made it so that anyone who dies there will be gone forever."
Nefilim nodded again. "Sure."
The Cetra exhaled. Good… at least we got him on our side now. She thought. "Nefilim… follow me."
With a wave of her hand the Lifestream let them out. The two stepped out and found themselves floating in mid-air. "Now close your eyes." She commanded.
Nefilim closed them. Suddenly, he felt faint, as if he were flying.
"Open."
He opened his eyes.
"Destructivus, welcome to the Promised Land."
Short chappie, I know... but I got writer's block right now. (I'll be fine soon... I mean come on... I wrote the entire last chapter of this story this morning!) If you are wondering... LadyKadaj gave me the idea to use the name Nefilim (I replaced it with the one i used earlier), i changed it before it was too late
