Disclaimer: Don't worry, I still don't own FFVII or anything else…;.;

Prettymissy54: Domo arigatou gozaimasu! You are soo nice! (you're also the only one who didn't ask about Relm's gender…)

Tolea: Thanks…LOVE THE CAPITAL LETTERS! XD

CloudLove3r-In-Your-Face: -sigh- If you don't like it, don't read it.

A/N: Okay…we seem to be having some confusion over Relm's gender. Let me start by saying that "Relm" is a name I like to steal from FFVI and since VII came right after VI, I thought it appropriate. Relm is in fact a girl who has a major-ness crush on our dear Sephy-kun. This is not yaoi or shounen ai as I don't read those that often with the exception of two authors and a manga called Gravitation. shounen ai lovers check it out! ). Just plain old fashioned boy and girl pairing. Sorry about the confusion, my dear readers.

And now…MY STORYNESS CONTINUES!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He kept his promise…for one month…

"Relm, I'm doing fine. Don't worry, it's not as bad as you thought."

I did worry…then…the letters stopped…

I took his advice…I left the slums…and went to a nice town called Nibelheim.

I kept his last letter with me though…it was the whole reason why…I left…

"Relm, I'm sorry to say that I'll be sending you no more letters. I do this, not to upset you, but to help you. War is coming and those in SOLDIER are to be the weapons. I want you to forget me, Relm, because if it says in the newspaper that a man named Sephiroth was killed, I want you to feel no pain or sadness. Remember what I said before I left, but nothing else. Leave the slums, you don't belong there.

Your Forgotten Friend,

Sephiroth"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"He's in the paper again!"

"Really? Wow! That Sephiroth guy must be amazing!"

"No kidding!"

I looked around the bar at the people buried in their newspapers. They were so loud…

"Look here! It says he's the only known master of the masamune!"

"What's that?"

"It's a sword, you idiot, a really long sword!"

I turned away. Masamune, huh? Didn't matter to me. What did I care about Sephiroth, Hero of the Shinra Company?

A traveler looked up from his meal, "So you're just now hearing about Sephiroth?"

"Yeah, why?"

The traveler shook his head, "Everyone in Midgar knows about him. I'm surprised you don't. I once got to see him."

"Really?"

"What was he like?"

The man smiled. This was obviously what he had been waiting for, "He's got long silver hair and these creepy, glowing green eyes. Not to mention the fact that he always wears black-"

He was about to continue when I quickly cut him off, "Who the hell cares? He's just another guy they got to call a 'hero.' I've heard just about enough of him and would be very grateful if you would either shut up or leave. Otherwise, I can shut you up myself!"

I unsheathed my sword and aimed it straight at his heart. He stared at me for a moment as if he didn't think I was serious. I merely stared at him, my sword remaining fixed on one spot.

He turned cautiously back to his food and whispered to the man next to him, "What's up with her?"

The other man shrugged, "No one really knows. She came here about three years ago, all alone. She just hates hearing about Sephiroth, but that's all anyone really knows about her."

I pulled my blonde hair from my eyes and stood up. The men flinched as I said sharply, "Actually, I just hate listening to a bunch of assholes talking about some damn idiot that was branded a hero!"

I slammed down my drink and stormed out of the bar. What did I care about Sephiroth? Just another jerk in a world that really didn't need any more.

I lay a hand on the hilt of my sword. If I ever saw that bastard again, I was gonna teach him a lesson, masamune or not!

I paused. Did I really have the heart to do that, though?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------A/N: -sigh- Finally finished it! Sorry it took so long….and that it's so damn short. This is the toughest story I've written thus far, so please give me a break. O.o;;

Please review…even though this chapter probably sucks….Ah, just review!
