Reno's P.O.V

"Ugh..." He shook his head.

"Hey! You! Are you a Sephiroth Remnant?" I poke his head with a stick. He looked surprise but at the same time annoyed by the way I treated him.

"Don't treat me as if I'm an extra-terrestrial being!" He hissed. Not realizing what he just did, another headache made it's way again. "Help..." Panic coursed through my mind I quickly grabbed him and put him on a bench somewhere inside the church.

"What happened to you?" I said, starting to worry about him. His breathing became uncomfortable. "Hey! Take it easy."

"I..." He flinched. "Don't know..."

"You don't look like you're from Midgar that's for sure." I said, observing his edgy features. His white hair flowing like Sephiroth's, but his eyes are different. I find it somehow fascinating because on the left eye it's red then on the right is green and it has a faint glow because of his pale skin.

He sat up and smiled at me. "Thanks though." He stands up. Geez. He's quite short too.

"What happened to you back there? That fall quite hurts. But seeing your condition now, I assume you're used to it."

"To be completely honest... I don't know. But I'm about to figure it out. Okay, I'll see you... Red head." He waves and in just one second he was out of my sight. I gasped. Is that real? Or it's just a ghost? Weird. I swear this church is full of surprises. That's why I like it.

CHAPTER 1

My name is Cross and that is all I can remember so far. I just opened my eyes and realize that I was falling from the sky. Surprisingly, I didn't feel the pain of falling. I don't know where am I but according to the Red-haired guy, I'm on Midgar. Weird. The last one came from here too. I wonder what happened to her.

Sephiroth Remnant...

Who is he?

Right now I'm on the street of Sector... I'm not really sure but people here are weird. They look at me as if I'm weird or something. I think I remind them of someone but who cares what they think? Anyway, I shook the thought away, I'm getting tired and mentally drained so I look out for a place that I can barge in. Hmmm... Where to go. Then I saw a sign.

7th Heaven.

Intrigued by the name, I walked in. Oh... It's... a bar or something like that. I grimaced. Wrong place. I hate the smell of people so I walked out but bumped into something hard and fell.
"Ow!" The wall groaned.

Oh...

It's not a wall.

It's a chocobo! Yey!

But Chocobos don't speak.

Same to the wall. Duhh.

Disappointments...

I shook my head. Ugh! Shut up mind.

Yep... I talk to myself.

Geez... What am I?

"Hey... Are you alright?" The guy I bumped into offered his hand and I grabbed it.

"Still on one piece." I smiled. "You have a pretty hard chest that's for sure." I said to the Chocobo guy.

"Apologies. You look... different. Are you from this sector?" He asked.

"No... Why? Do I remind you of someone?"

"No... it's just that I don't see someone with that kind of eyes." My brow quirked.

"Thanks. I take that as a compliment."

"Cloud!" Someone squealed at my back. I'm not Cloud. A kid appeared on my side.

"Marlene..." He muttered and smiled. Most beautiful smile so far. I smiled too.

"Who's your friend?" Another girl appeared. This time, same as my age and the chocobo guy.

"Uhmm... I'm not his friend. We just bumped into each other. Okay bye."

"Wait..." The Chocobo guy said. "You look pretty lost and no offense, screwed up. Would you like a place to stay for awhile?"

"Do you have friends from here?" The girl with huge breast asked.

"Are you from here?" Marlene, the kid, asked.

"Okay... One question at a time." I giggled. Well, I have no place to go so I just nod. "Okay... I'll take that offer." I smiled and the girl smiled.

"Tifa... My name is Tifa." The girl with huge breast greeted me. "This is Cloud." The chocobo guy. "and Marlene." I smiled at Marlene. She reminds me of someone.

Someone I knew from my Promise Land...

"Cross. My name is Cross. And sadly I can't answer any of your question. I just fell from the sky and found myself lying in a bed full of flowers."

"You mean the Church?" Tifa asked.

"Oh... Is that what it is?" I giggled. Suddenly, my heart throbbed and my headache from the fall came back and my sight faded away.

"What am I?"

You are a Cetra.

"I know... But what makes me so special from the rest?"

You were revived.

"By whom?!" I said getting impatient.

By him...

And that's when my eyes opened. I realized that my breathing became uncomfortable and that everything was just a dream. I look around my surrounding. Oh... I'm in a room. I guess this is the place that Cloud (right?) was talking about. My headache is still there but it doesn't hurt compare to the one I felt awhile ago. I sighed. Who was I talking too in my dreams? I know I'm a Cetra but that doesn't do anything. Who revived me? Who's him?

"Are you alright? You're sweating!" Someone gasped beside me. It's Cloud. His eyes are full of worries.

I smiled at him. "Nightmares. It's just... Nightmares."

"Drink this." He gave me a glass of water.

"Thanks. Hey... Thanks for giving me a place to stay, to be honest, I don't know where I came from. I don't know who to trust but my instinct brought me here. I was about to walk away because of the people and the smell of the licorice but I met you and Tifa. My instincts are never wrong." I muttered.

"Well, the least you can do is tell me your name."

"Cross..."

"Well, wherever you came from, you don't look like you belong..."

"Here?" I continued.

"Yes."

"Well, I still don't know what my mission is. Can you guys make me stay for awhile while I figure out what's my purpose?"

He looked quite amused by my weird dialogues.

"Do me a favor..."

"Anything." I said.

"When you find out what it is, can you tell me?"

"Sure... If I make it out alive."

"Why? Are you a criminal?"

"No. But people want me." I looked at my hands focusing my flowing energy on it. The energy is starting to condense on my hands, I can feel the heartbeat of the energy. The whole room seem to glow because of this and Cloud looks stunned.

"Is that Mako Energy?" Cloud gasped. He looks cute when gasping.

"That's what you guys call it? I call it Green-Light." After a dilly-dally second a glowing rock formed on my wrist. "Here. Take this. As a gift of gratitude." I gave him my self-made Materia. I find it easy to make but it drains me for a second but it's worth it. I hand it to the surprised Cloud and he observed it as if it's a holy rock from outer space. "Don't look so surprise. That's a Materia but I think it doesn't do anything but she told me that when the time comes it can come in handy. Keep it." I smiled at him.

"W-w-who... Who's... Who's she?"

"I'm not sure but I can hear her."

He froze.

"Cloud? Are you okay?"
