Now That It's Over
Author's Notes:
The idea behind this was to make the Turks real. To reveal their dark sins that still haunt them to this day and in the case of Elena and Tseng are still active within them. I meant to catch you offguard, surprise you and make you develop a sense of empathy for the characters. I will be writing a sequel to this because it was so well received.
LTB-FAQs:
(Likely To Be Frequently Asked Questions)
What was Rude talking about Elena in Chapter 4?
Turns out that Andy was right. Tseng was well aware of Elena's drug addiction. The official verdict was that she was to be passed over for promotion and to attend rehabilitation. However she got promoted later (in the FF7 Game).
When does this story take place?
About seven months prior to Final Fantasy 7. (get it?)
What does SIA stand for?
Shinra Intelligence Agency.
What is ketamine?
From Wikipedia:
Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic for use in human and veterinary medicine. Its hydrochloride salt is sold as Ketanest, Ketaset, and Ketalar. Pharmacologically, ketamine is classified as an NMDA receptor antagonist,[1 and, like other drugs of this class such as tiletamine, and phencyclidine (PCP), induces a state referred to as "dissociative anesthesia."[2 As with other pharmaceuticals of this type, ketamine is used illicitly as a recreational drug.
Who is Taro, Andy, Stan, Jim?
These are all original characters I developed to add the neccesary third dimension to the story. Taro is the SOLDIER commander for the Midgar Division 3. Andy is Elena's boyfriend who lives in Junon and works as an item shop clerk. Stan and Jim are soldiers for JUNON Division 2, Beta Company, 2nd and 3rd Squad respectively.
