Notes: Yeah, I think this calls for more evil laughter…
Aerithism
Twenty-five: Alternate endings…
The silver-haired child instantly morphed into an all-too-familiar form of the most hated person of Gaia… The former hero… The fallen angel… The would-be god…
Sephiroth.
Heiress stared up at the slightly hovering form. "I DON'T UNDERSTAND! Why would you…? After all this…?"
Thin lips turned into a favorite smirk. "Because… I hate every single living thing on the Planet, and I need all of Mother's cells to take my revenge… Even Lucrecia's portion…"
"She's gone… we've never been apart."
"Killing all of you is just a bonus."
A porcupine-headed man rubbed the back of his head. "You know, Aerith… when you think about it… this actually makes a lot of sense for Seph…"
"CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND POSSESION?"
"Dead. One syllable word. Shouldn't be that difficult to pronounce."
"…I am a fan of the people of Gaia killing each other…"
"The joys of Jenova cells… Amazing, aren't they?"
"… I'm still godlier than you…"
"… I'm an idiot…"
Ending A: Jessie is Psychotic...
The glasses-wearing brunette looked from her mako-laced midsection to the floating, smirking Sephiroth. She stepped a few paces, pausing beside her sibling. She shoved her hand knowingly into his pocket.
She removed her tiny digits, clutching a small magnum. She lifted it, pointing it at Sephiroth's laughing face. "Sephy-kins? Shut. Up." She pulled the trigger.
And the angel once again fell to the Planet.
"… We could have just shot him in the head?" Cirrus blinked at the dead form.
"Guns are fairly effective… Why are you wearing a skirt, Recruit Strife?"
Heiress kneeled beside the now still body. And started poking it. "So… I didn't need to use the Lifestream so much, huh?"
Ending B: Sephiroth, Out of Character…
The familiar, heartless smirk buckled against itself. Then, a hearty laughter escaped his lips. He wrapped his hands around his stomach as he tried to comfort the pain. "Y-you should see the looks on your faces! Hahahaha—air! Need… air…" He gently descended to the ground.
Zax tilted his head, kneeling beside his former ally. "Seph, you… feeling okay?"
"Never better," the man rasped.
"Are you sure? I've never seen you anything other than depressed or insane…"
The silver-haired ex-SOLDIER grinned. "I'm in love!"
"Seph?"
"Yes?"
"… No offense, but you've lost it…"
Ending C: The Secret of the Universe…
"You… aren't really going to… kill everyone?" Green-eyes began to tear.
The smirk vanished instantly. "Actually, even if I kill you it won't really matter…"
"How can you say that! Everything's important!"
The silver-haired man shook his head. "You don't get it… The Square-Enix wouldn't let me destroy the Planet… Bastards…"
"Huh?"
Feel free to write a review. Or flame me, whatever.
Yep, absolutely pointless…
