Chapter 1

Cloud quickly thrusted his sword into the wall of the tower in Midgar. He stood on it and looked up at Sephiroth.
Sephiroth: On your knees, I want you to beg for forgiveness.
The top of the tower became dislodged and crashed down towards them both. Sephiroth hit it with his sword and it moved over him and down towards Cloud. He pressed his foot down on his Buster Sword, detached a sword from it, stuck it into the wall, then dropped down, grabbed them, and somersaulted off the wall and blocked the falling debris with his swords. Sephiroth cut a large piece into four pieces and hit Cloud's sword's with his masamune and they both landed on debris and begn fighting amidst the debris until Cloud finally cut through and moved up to the top of a building. He fell on his hands and knees and got back up as Sephiroth landed and ht the ground where Cloud was. Sephiroth beat him and knocked him against a wall and jabbed his sword through Cloud's shoulder.
Sephiroth: Tell me what you cherish most.
Cloud placed his hand on the blade of Sephiroth's sword.
Sephiroth: Give me the pleasure of taking it away.
Images flashed through Cloud's mind as he pulled the sword out and swung at Sephiroth who jumped back just in time.
Cloud: I pity you. You just don't get it at all.
Sephiroth scoffed and jumped into the air with Cloud following.
Cloud: There's not a thing I don't cherish!
He spun his buster sword to perform the Limit Break. He flicked the sword and all of the seven swords that made it flew out and surrounded Sephiroth. Cloud grabbed each one and hit Sephiroth with them. He landed on the ground surrounded by his swords with Sephiroth defeated. He looked up at Sephiroth.
Cloud: Stay where you belong, in my memories.
Sephiroth: I will...never be a memory.

Cloud woke up in his bed. Tifa was sleeping in a bed next to him. He looked at her and then pushed himself up with his arm only to be greeted by a painful aching sensation in that arm. That's when he remembered the three fractures he had in that arm from a motorcycle crash a month ago. He saw the splint he was wearing on that arm. Tifa heard his low cry and woke up. She looked at the digital clock. 5:47 AM. She looked at Cloud and saw the troubled look on his face.
Tifa: What's wrong?
Cloud: 5 years ago, when I fought that last battle against Sephiroth..
Tifa: Yeah, what about it?
Cloud: He said he would return. That's what is worrying me.
Tifa: He's not coming back. You defeated him.
Cloud: His last words to me were that he will never be a memory. That has got to mean something.
Tifa: You need to relax a little. Everyone in Edge and New Midgar are safe and calm and there's no Sephiroth attacking and there never will be anymore.
Cloud: Yeah, maybe you're right.

Chapter 2

Meanwhile, Reno was heading through the streets of New Midgar to Rufus Shinra's office tower, grumbling about having to get

up so early. His cellphone began ringing. He answered it. It was Rufus telling him to hurry.
Reno: I'm coming, I'm coming.
He hung up and continued. A few blocks away three men appeared. They all had long silvery white hair similar to Sephiroth's

and they all wore black battle armor.
Man to the left: Hey, Razzu, is that one of Cloud's friends?
Man in middle (Razzu): Yeah.
Man to the left: Should we expect a friendly greeting?
Razzu: Apparently not.
Man to the right: But he knows where the Mako is.
Man to the left: Don't cry, Sefin.
Man to the right (Sefin): I'm NOT crying!
Razzu: Let's introduce him to our pets. Maraku?
Man to the left (Maraku): This will be fun.
Maraku put his hand up and upon doing this, several dragonlike creatures appeared and began running in a pack at Reno.
Reno: What the..
He equipped his EMR(Electro-Mag Rod) and did his best to keep the strange creatures from hitting him. One creature jumped

at him and he fell to the ground.

Meanwhile, Tifa heard the commotion and saw Reno outside fighting the creatures.
Tifa: That looks like Reno!
Cloud came to the window.
Cloud: We should help him.
Tifa: No, you need to stay here. You won't be able to fight in the state you're in.
With that, Tifa left the room and went outside to help Reno.
Cloud: She's helping a former enemy and leaving me in here.

Tifa jumped at one of the creatures and fought them with her martial arts. As they died, they dissipated into black dust. Reno

didn't notice her until she killed the one that had him pinned. Reno got up and dusted off his unzipped black suit jacket.
Reno: What are you doing here?
Tifa: Getting rid of these things.
They fought the creatures until Razzu got bored and made them dissapear. Razzu, Sefin and Maraku got onto their

motorcycles and drove away. Reno saw them leaving.
Reno: Who are they?
Tifa: This can't be good.
Reno: I'm going to tell President Shinra about this.
With that he left for the Shinra tower. Tifa watched him leave, then returned to the house back into the room Cloud was in.
Cloud: What happened?
Tifa: Reno was being attacked by these strange dragonlike creatures that seemed to have been summoned by three men.
Cloud remembered Kadaj, Yazoo and Loz, the three men that summoned creatures to attack him 5 years before.
Cloud: Did they have white hair?
Tifa: It seemed so.
Cloud: Sephiroth..

[Force_Flow]

Nice, nice. I would suggest putting in some more detail. A LOT more. Describe more of their actions. When you say "they fought the creatures until Razzu got bored", it sort of makes you grimace and say, "Okay, what was the guy thinking when he got bored? Was he excited, angry, happy...?" I'll admit the way you're writing it isn't the way I'm used to, and makes it harder for me to read. Where were the characters placed, what did it look like outside, did Cloud get that thousand-yard stare when thinking of Sepheroth...?

Just some suggestion.

Chapter 3

Tifa: Maybe it is happening again.
Cloud: Sephiroth is coming back.

Meanwhile, at the Upper Plate, Reno arrived at Shinra's Headquarters. He was a bit late for the meeting.
Rufus: You're late, Reno.
Reno: Yeah, sorry. I ran into a little trouble on the way.
Reno took a seat at the large councilling table with the other Turks, Rude, Tseng, and Elena. Rufus was seated at the head of the table.
Rufus: Anyway, I gathered you all here on behalf of our newest creation, New Midgar. Currently, the city is using insufficient electrical power. I am receiving numerous complaints of power outages throughout the Sectors. How do you think this problem can be solved? The same way we powered Midgar seven years before. Mako energy. The Mako reactors are still in good enough condition to be used, but they are empty. Last month I sent Reno to search for Mako energy, and he was successful. He told me there is another cavern under the Northern Cave flooded with Mako. Your jobs are to protect this plan and keep the Mako reactors from being harmed.

While this was happening, Razzu, Maraku, and Sefin arrived in Healin. They parked their motorcycles outside Rufus' old office and stepped off them.
Razzu: We'll use this place as our base.

Reno: I had originally planned to bring back a container of Mako, but it fell from my personal helicopter onto the road and Cloud ran it over with his motorcycle. The box made him lose balance and he crashed.
Rufus: Yes, I have heard a little bit about this accident from one of Cloud's friends. Anyway, here's what I want each of you to do. Rude, you are in charge of protecting the citizens of New Midgar. Reno, you'll be coming with me to pick up the Mako. Tseng, you and Elena are to protect the Mako Reactors at all costs. I don't want anything to happen that will keep us from powering New Midgar with Mako.
Turks: Yes, sir.

Tifa: How's your arm dong?
Cloud: Better, but still a bit sore.
Tifa: I'm sure it will heal up sometime soon, you just wait.

Chapter 4

Razzu saw a chest full of Materia in one of the rooms. He grabbed a Blue Materia and left the building with Maraku and Sefin. They got onto their motorcycles and headed back to New Midgar and parked atop a tall building.

Reno and Rufus boarded a helicopter on their way to the Northern Cave.
Rufus: Hey Reno, I want to ask you something.
Reno: Shoot.
Rufus: When you were bringing back the container full of Mako, what exactly happened when you were carrying it on your helicopter?
Reno: I ran into some turbulence, and the box fell out the open window on the road, and Cloud's motorbike ran it over, then he lost balance and crashed into the wall of the bar in Sector 6. The collision fractured his left arm in 3 places.
He saw that Rufus was remembering something.
Reno: Sir?

Rufus: Say Kadaj, I've got a question for you.
Kadaj: And I've got an answer.
Rufus: You said you needed Jenova cells in order to become whole again. What did you mean by that?
Kadaj: Him. He's coming back.
Rufus: Sephiroth. The Nightmare.
Kadaj: So they say.
Rufus: You mean..?
Kadaj: I've never known Sephiroth. I just..I sense him there. It's unbearable. To think Mother might want Sephiroth more than..
Rufus: Poor little remnant.
Kadaj: It doesn't matter who she picks, you'll all meet the same end! Mother came to this planet after a long journey, to rid the cosmos of fools like you.
Rufus: The Lifestream coarses through our planet, back and forth along the borders of Life and Death. If that cycle is the very truth of Life, then history too will inevitable repeat itself. So go on, bring your Jenovas and your Sephiroths. It won't matter. We will do as Life dictates and stop you every single time.
Kadaj: Please, sir, is that your excuse for going after Mother yourself? You don't seem all that sorry.
Rufus: Sorry? Why, I've never had this much fun.
Kadaj's arm glowed from Blue Materia.
Kadaj: Good. Now, let's put an end to all of this..

Razzu moved his arm upward and while doing so, it glowed with Blue Materia energy.
Vocal choir (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Soohoonevenaaas..
Razzu flicked his arm to the sky and upon doing so the Blue Materia fired out to the clouds.
Vocal choir (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Heeiinaruvuneeiis...saduun, huuruveiin...
A bundle of transluscent cords appeared from the clouds and formed together to create a dragon creature. The cords dissipated and revealed a skeletal looking dragon. It flew down to New Midgar and attacked the city.
Vocal choir (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Is eram eviinco,
Naam is ago..
Tifa ran to the window and saw what was happening.
Vocal choir (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Caaeeloo miisuus reex..
Tifa: Cloud!
Vocal choir (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Pooeena etiam...terraae motus, caaeeloo miisuus reex..
Tifa: I'm going down to help. You should stay here.
She left the house to be greeted by the roaring dragon.
Vocal choir (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Erroor humaanuus, wavit cahuus..
The dragon flew up to one of the Mako Reactors and roared.
Vocal choir (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Caahuus verbum claviis, avoonen..
Rude ran through the streets then saw what he was up against.
Rude: Not again..
Vocal choir (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Calaamitas eex suua praesentia fragminis..
As Rude turned and ran, Maraku and Sefin chased him. Sefin jumped into the air and attacked him.
Deeper voiced vocal choir (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Cuum haustus...
Blue-white plasma energy began to grow in the dragon's mouth.
Deeper voiced vocal choir singing as the plasma grows (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Es frehemitu, cu.m levatus est caarminee...
The dragon flew up into the air.
Deeper voiced vocal choir (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Quondam iterum, faatuum invitans..
Tifa, Rude, Tseng, and Elena all looked up at the dragon.
Deeper voiced vocal choir (Repeated letters indicate prolonged note): Paaraaadiisuuus...
The dragon fired the plasma at the Mako Reactor, and it exploded. The dragon roared.

Chapter 5

Reno and Rufus' helicopter was getting close to the Northern Cave.
Rufus: Reno, what exactly were those "complications" you ran into on the way to my headquarters?
Reno: I was attacked by three men, all having white hair and black body armor.
Rufus: Three men?
Reno: Well actually, they observed while I fought a pack of strange dragonlike creatures alongside Tifa.
Rufus: Dragonlike creatures?
Reno: Yeah.
Rufus: This sounds familiar.. do you remember 5 years ago when Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz were around?
Reno: You bet I do.
Rufus was remebering something again...
Kadaj: Boy, do I hate liars.
Rufus: I apologize. This time you'll get the truth. The object you seek fell from the helicopter while we were running from you. I'm afraid we were careless.
Kadaj: Is that right?
Rufus: I swear it.
Kadaj: Fine, then swear on these.
He tossed two ID cards back at Rufus' feet. He read the names. Tseng and Elena. He looked back up at Kadaj, who was facing away from him.
Rufus: Why did you do this?
Kadaj: We need Mother's power. The Reunion is coming..
He turned around.
Kadaj: ..And we need her.
Rufus: ..Reunion?
Kadaj: Soon, Mother's cells will all assemble, and then we'll take revenge on the planet!
He turned back around and put his arms into the air, then put them back down and turned around.
Kadaj: We've already sent out the invitations, but, hehe, you know. Someone's gone and hidden the guest of honor.
Rufus: Invitations?
Kadaj: The stigma.
Rufus looked at the geostigma sore on his right hand.
Kadaj: But you know all about that, sir.
Rufus looked back at where he thought Kadaj might be. He couldn't exactly see through the white cloth covering his head, making a hood, and covering the rest of his body, matching his white corporate uniform. He fiddled with the controls on his wheelchair as Kadaj was talking to him.
Kadaj: Jenova's memetic legacy is what lives on in the Lifestream and makes it happen. She does so much for us and we.. we don't even know where to find her. But what can we do? We're just remnants, merely remnants of Mother's legacy. Until we retrieve Mother's cells, we can't be whole again. Geostigma and a legacy aren't enough. Not for a true Reunion.
Rufus: What do you mean?
Kadaj: But sir, surely you've noticed...
Kadaj moved towards Rufus and bowed down to his knees before him, then slowly moved his head upwards. This simple movement irritated Rufus' geostigma, caused slight pain and discomfort as images of Sephiroth flashed through his mind.
Reno: Sir, I'm getting a bit worried abot you. You're always daydreaming.
Rufus: Just remembering something.
Rufus stood up from his seat and looked out the open window. The wind danced through his short brown hair.

Chapter 6

As Reno and Rufus' helicopter arrived over the Northern Cave, Rufus remembered when Tseng and Elena flew to the Northern Cave and found Jenova's head. Their trip ended badly and they fell into the hands of Kadaj and his gang.

Tifa got up from the ground and looked around. The shockwave from the explosion had destroyed all of the buildings closest to the Mako Reactor. She saw a little boy loking at the dragon. The dragon saw the little boy and flew down to him and gaped its jaws wide open to eat him, but before this could be done, Barret changed his robot arm into his chaingun and fired at the dragon.
Tifa: Barret!
Barret: Where's Marlene?
Tifa: In the house, why?
Barret: You look after her while the others and I deal with this thing.
Tifa nodded her head and ran into the house. As she did she saw Cloud riding in on a new motorcycle. The side compartments opened and revealed the seven swords that make his buster sword.
Tifa: Cloud, what are you doing?! You need to rest until your arm is better!
Cloud: It's easier now.
Tifa: Hmm?
Cloud: I think it's healed over.
Tifa smiled at him. Cloud took off the splint and dropped at on the ground as he closed the compartments and rode over to help his friends. When he arrived, he saw Vincent jumping around the dragon while firing at it with his red cloak moving with the wind. Cloud jumped up to the top of a building then split his buster sword into two swords and jumped to the dragon and hit it with his right sword. The dragon caught the sword but Cloud jerked it back and the dragon swatted him onto a building. He merged his swords again and got into position as the dragon flew at him. When it got close enough, Cloud jumped onto the dragon's head, hit it with his sword, then jumped into the air, and as he did so, his sword became charged with magical energy and when it hit the dragon as Cloud jumped back down, it knocked the dragon to the ground. Cloud jumped back as it fell onto a nearby building. The dragon got back up as the plasma grew in its mouth. It flew high up into the air near Sector 0, Rufus' corporate tower. Cloud got on his motorcycle and went to Sector 0 as the plasma got bigger. Vincent Valentine changed into his cloak and floated onto the tower. Cloud began jumping onto ledges on the tower as Vincent swooped him up, engulfed him in his cloak, and dropped him on the dragon's back. Cloud stuck his sword inside the dragon and cut right through it. The dragon roared with pain. Cloud flicked his sword and all of the 6 remaining swords flew out and cut through the dragon as well. Cloud dove through the dragon and picked up his swords, then Vincent took him back up to finish the job. Cloud charged his sword and when he flicked it, a magical projectile flew out and hit the dragon, and when it did, the dragon changed into blue energy as it fell to the ground, crushing Sector 5 in the process. Vincent took Cloud and they both flew back down to Sector 8 where Tifa's house was. Vincent transformed back into his human form as Cloud landed next to him. Everyone applauded until they saw the badly damaged helicopter flying overhead.
