Disclaimer: Don't own, why would I need to?
Summary: She never thought she would come to this. She did everything, both for her own people and for them and now this was how these worthless beings treated her. So be it. She would wait until the time was right, like all those years ago. The story of what humans call extraterrestrial from being a queen to a calamity.
Author note: Written for the prompt dear Counterfeit God asked me to write. My first try at writing Jenova (never thought I would) Anyway, I hope you like it. Not a one-shot, though XD
Warning: Rated M for violence in this chapter.

She fell.
The massive rock, her temporary shelter in her voyage hit their planet, their home, full force.
She set her foot upon their land, the foreign territory.
They approached her carefully. And she watched them, a sudden desire to know everything about them, their planet, flooding her.
They were different from her, even different from each other and she could see that the difference would soon tear them apart.
They let her in their dwellings and she was bemused by their kindness, by how they treated her. They reminded her of her people. However she could see as they watched her.
They were different and she… didn't belong.
Didn't belong even as much as a group of them approached her with open arms. She could feel it.
She didn't know what the reason for their cautiousness was but one day, they accepted her.
They were two different races. Very different.
While they accepted her among themselves, the other peeked at her behind the corners, not daring to approach her as though she was dangerous, too powerful or even sacred. And it made her wonder.
She helped her understand their language.
They called themselves Cetra.
They gave her what she wanted and soon she began to explore their world, to absorb the knowledge. Tried to forget her pain.
Their planet wasn't very different from hers. She knew everything just in the blink of an eye.
And they… hadn't changed their ordinary lives.
She lent them her help. Helped them explore further unaltered parts of their world. And all the while, those others, those humans, didn't move from their spot.
They were afraid, were afraid of change, were afraid to learn, to improve, while the Cetra accepted her knowledge, her help.
And yet, humanity rejected Cetra's help.
She looked down on them.
They reminded her of those who opposed her, those who didn't let her speak.
They were afraid of change, just like humanity.
So it was her that approached them even as they shied away, hiding themselves from her.
It was her that helped them, their first step.
She showed them, helped them in what Cetra tried to do, helped them change, helped them improve. And they acted as though she was dangerous, frightening or even sacred.
And, yet… They were so naïve… So naïve to call her, God. So naïve to act as though she was a God.
So desperate in their need to worship, so desperate to be ruled, to be ordered around,… to be ruined.
Cetra didn't like this. They didn't like this at all.
They told her to abandon them.
How could it be?
Weren't they the ones who tried to help humanity?
They turned against her when she didn't.
Were all of them traitorous? Even these fearful humans?
And now she could understand how different they were. Now she could see the veiled bitter reality.
If it was one thing that she couldn't stand, it was betrayal.
She knew it would happen. She knew that one day, humanity would do what they would regret forever. She just waited.
And they did. Once they saw themselves capable, they rebelled against her.
She couldn't understand.
Weren't they the ones that once called her their God? Do they always go against their gods?
Do they always go against each other?
Do they always betray?
It was the end.
Producing a sword out of sheer will, she painted their simple world with vivid colors.
What she didn't expect was that the Cetra came to their help.
It took her by amazement.
How could they? How could they be so treacherous? So changeable?
The Cetra came to help them, came to lose their lives for humanity.
And what did humanity do? Those insolent, coward traitors ran away for their lives, leaving the conflict they had started, leaving the Cetra fight their battle.
Too late it was, but Cetra finally understood that the difference would tear them apart. Only it was too late.
They were paying the price of their ignorance and their betrayal.
It was disgusting.
As was her defeat by their hands…
NO!
She couldn't believe it. No, it was impossible! It couldn't be! She was stronger! Her knowledge was far more than theirs!
It can't be!
Their planet helped them.
It was disgusting to be buried alive.
The spot she had fallen became her grave.
Her heart filled with fury… with a burning desire for revenge.
Seeing them perish in restraining her at least, brought tiniest bits of smile to her lips.
Only, it wasn't enough.
She was forced to watch, forced to freeze under layers and layers of soil as the life passed around her in a steady stream. With each passing year, bitterness was poured down her throat, droplets of revenge turning into rivulets.
Their extinction wasn't enough. It couldn't repay the years that she lied there in waiting.
Waiting.
As those humans excavated her from her everlasting grave.
Waiting.
As those insolents poked her, prodded her, ripped her body apart.
Waiting.
Seething silently with violent anger at those coward traitors.
Waiting…
Waiting for the time to come.
The time that she'd make sure the population of this planet would regret doing what they did all those years ago. The time that all those humans would regret living it.
She would wait and it would come, one day, eventually.
She would pass whatever she had, whatever her planet, her people had to this child.
Whatever her son had.
And he would be her brilliant legacy.
Hers, one and only.
Emerald eyes snapped open.

Author note: I don't know whether there would be a third chapter or no, but before writing it, I'll try to complete the new chapter of "Genesis" and then switch back to this story. I hope you've liked it thus far.
