I don't own FF 7 or KH or Kelly, Shelby, Whitney, Lindsey, or Cody…Sorry it's been so long 5 months….I hate doing it to you all.. I know how it is reading a good story then they don't update for such a long time.
Chapter 8: Now What?
(1 week after the Death of Sam)
The entire Group sat in the Lobby of the hotel, Whitney stood in the center of them.
Whitney: we can't let this stop us…. We have to finish what Sam started…there are worlds that still need saving…. Sam would not want us to give up…someone has to pick up where he left off…
Emmy: then it should be me…
Whitney: no… I made a promise to Sam I would not go back in you…
Emmy: why not?
Whitney: he said if you belong on this planet he wants you to stay…and he made me promise to make sure you stayed…
Cody: that's bullshit!
Whitney: even if it is I will honor my promise…
Emmy: …
Sephiroth: I'll take my brother's place…
Whitney: are you sure?
Sephiroth: positive.
Whitney: alright…
Whitney changed into the cast Sam had first put on five years ago. Sephiroth leaned down and put it on his arm and it shrank into his arm.
Whitney (in Sephiroth's head): hello
This started a conversation off inside Sephiroth's head.
Sephiroth: ok that's weird…
Whitney: don't worry I'm not gonna take over your body..
Sephiroth: that's real reassuring…
Whitney: are you ready to go on?
This time Sephiroth spoke to the group.
Sephiroth: are we all ready?
Everyone that would be leaving said yes and a black portal opened right there in the lobby scaring the lady at the desk. Everyone hugged and said their goodbyes. Then Cloud, Tifa, Cid, Vincent, Yuffie, Barret, Red XIII, and Aeris walked through the portal. Sora and Sephiroth stood in front of it.
Sora: I promise I'll come back Angelina.. I swear…
Angelina: I know…
Sephiroth and Sora stepped through the portal and it closed behind them. When they stepped through they were back in Final Fantasy 7.
Sephiroth: why are we back here?
Whitney: some… kind of disturbance…in the life stream was picked up…when Sam died…not just here…on all the planets…but here the strongest…the entire universe let out a cry…we have to find out why…
Sephiroth: could it be that every world felt him die.
Whitney:…no the Power to Be wouldn't send us here to solve that.. someone did something as he died…
Sephiroth: and you're sure it's from here?
Whitney: yes…
Sephiroth: Aeris…can you ask the planet what happened a week ago when Sam died?
Aeris nodded and closed her eyes, a few minutes later she opened her eyes.
Aeris: someone…absorbed a large amount of life stream from every planet in the universe… and used it…to grab something from mother…
Sephiroth: mother?
Aeris: it says something after that… but I can't make it out…
(in Sephiroth's head): my son… you.. have…returned.. to me..
Sephiroth knew that voice… it had haunted his dreams since he returned to the planet after Cloud killed him so many years ago, but it was impossible.. She has long been dead. Sephiroth responded to the voice in his head.
Sephiroth: Jenova?
: yes…my.. son…come… help your mother…. She needs you…
Sephiroth: you're not my mother.
Jenova: don't talk to me like that boy! You will obey your mother!
Sephiroth held his temples and yelled at the top of his lungs where everyone could hear him.
Sephiroth: YOU AREN'T MY MOTHER!
Everyone looked at him, Sephiroth waited for Jenova to make so kind of come back but it never came.
Cloud: Sephiroth…what's wrong?
Sephiroth: Jenova…she just spoke to me…
Cloud: what? Sam killed her though!
Sephiroth: she just talked to me Cloud….she's in trouble though…she sounded really weak…she tried to take me over but it felt like a 2 year old pinching me…
Cloud: could she have caused the planets to cry?
Whitney spoke from with in Sephiroth.
Whitney: it's possible….
Tifa: you don't think the planet could have called Jenova mother do you?
Sephiroth: no… Jenova's cell's can't effect the life stream that much.
Vincent: so what are we gonna do now?
Sephiroth: I have an idea…but.. I'm gonna need you all…if I start to go insane kill me…
Cloud: what are you gonna do?
Sephiroth didn't answer but closed his eyes. Sephiroth reached out with his mind.
Sephiroth: mother?
Jenova: now you call me that?
Sephiroth: I am sorry for what I said earlier…these humans have influenced me more than I thought…
Jenova: I want you to come to me my son…
A low screech began in Sephiroth's mind as Jenova began to wrap her claws around his mind.
Sephiroth: were are you mother?
Jenova: I am in Midgar…at the Shinra tower…I'm waiting on you my son…
Sephiroth held his head and began to scream as the screeching began to pierce his mind and send needles through his mind.
Sephiroth: she's in Midgar at the Shinra tower…..kill me Cloud!
Cloud pulled back his fist then punched Sephiroth hard in the face snapping his head to the side but not breaking it. Sephiroth fell to his knees and his world went black.
Cloud: don't worry I only knocked him out…
Cloud picked up Sephiroth and put him over his shoulder.
Cloud: anybody know where we are?
Vincent: near Nibelheim… about an hours walk west….
Cloud: then let's go.
The group began their walk toward Nibelheim.
(an hour later)
Now the group sat in the Shinra Mansion, it had began to rain not long after they had gotten there. Sephiroth was now awake and standing in the middle of everyone.
Yuffie: Now what?
Sephiroth: We're gonna go to Midgar…. And find out.. what Jenova did.. And kill her..
(A/N: Chapter 8: finished….the group is about to go into their first battle with out Sam, will the succeed without him there? What did Jenova do with all the life stream she took from the planets? If anything at all? What if Sam never killed her and she's just been regenerating? But if she didn't do anything… who did take the life stream and what did they use it for?)
