Heavenless (GoD and Aeriona Original)

[Sora_Rox_My_Sox]

Alex walzted into the Shinra SOLDIER training ground, his head held high, a bright smile on his face. He knew he was cocky, and he didnt want to be too overly confident, but he couldnt help it. The training ground was already busy, filled with about 3 other SOLDIERS, all ranking higher than himself. His own personal idols, were Sephiroth and Zack, and he believed that they were the greatest warriors of their time.

And what with his luck? Sephiroth was here, probably about to fight against the other to 1st class SOLDIERS. He birskly walked over to the group, recognizing the other people instantly; Slief and Syra were also great fighters, and if they included him in this battle, it would be tough as hell to get close to winning. He was as good as any 2nd class, probably better, but this would be the hardest battle by far.

"Hey guys, how's it going? Mind if I join in, or is it a 1st class thing?" He asked them, flashin a devious smile and gripping the hilt of his gunblade.

"Huh?" Her confusion was all too plain, as she had just heard somebody speak to her, inside her head. Your friend is. "What the hell does that mean?" She said as she pondered, but she was shot back into reality when she heard the screaming of tearing metal. She had completely spaced about the glowing figure she shot at, and looked up to see that he had easily deflected the bullets with the large swords. Blue energy was now consuming his hands, if it was a "he". She couldnt tell from where she was, she only knew she had to stop him before there was fatalities.

She saw a chunk of helicopter go sailing through the air, aimed right at Reno and the brick Turk. "Watch it!" She screamed at them, before she took off sprinting in their direction. The helicopter piece was flying too fast against her running, and she launched into a running dive, connecting with Reno and the brick Turks just milliseconds before the helicopter. Her force threw them out of the way, but she had put herself into the pieces charge.

It connected with the force of a million brick walls, slamming into every possible inch of her body, throwing pain into every nerve. She was lucky, if you could even call it luck, that the impact got her on her side, instead of head on. All the same, she was thrown 15 yards, the crunch of her bones overpowering every other sound as they connected with the metal. As she lay crumpled on the ground, blood begining to gush from the now open wounds she received, she had just barely enough stregth to lift her head. She saw brick Turk, fighting a bewitched sword with his own katana, and Reno running towards her, also bleeding from his arm. She left her head drop do the soft ground, now soaked with her blood, and she blacked out, hoping with all her heart that she didnt endanger the rest of her friends.

Aerith shook her head, trying to make him believe that she didn’t do anything. A smile appeared across her face as he jumped off the floor and stood near her. Her cheeks remained blushed as she shyly looked up at him and noticed how handsome he really was. He continued to talk about how he could repay her and all she could do was shake her head.

“No-No-No… I didn’t do anything. You don’t have to repay me. All I did was say helllllooo.” She stated, reacting what she did when she saw him.

She listened to him and stared into his eyes as he kept them on her. She grinned, putting her hands behind their back and shrugged while he was thinking about how to repay her. She stood there patiently, looking around at the flowerbed then back at him, thinking to himself. She was surprised when he said something about a date with him and she jumped back in shock.

“What is that. Don’t be silly.” She said, looking at him to see if he meant it and he was sitting their in a prayer stance.

Aerith giggled while clapping her hands lightly and watched as Zack drew near her. Her heart jumped a beat and she held out his hand to stop him. She looked down at the position of his feet and saw that all of her flowers were safe.

“Don’t step on the flowers..” She yelled out and the smile disappeared from her face for a split second but reappeared a few seconds later. “Normally people would be careful around flowers!”

She put her hands on her hips and brought her hand to be under her chin. She thought about his proposal and tried to think of what to do. Her hair swayed back and forth as she walked around the flowers to check on their status. She kneeled down, glancing around the flower bed and then up at him. She stood up, slowly while crossing her arms and walking back toward him.

“One date, huh?” She said with a laugh and placed her hands behind her as she looked into his eyes. “One date would be wonderful.” She whispered, looking down at the ground as her cheeks became red.

[Shattered Redemption]

The blast of electrical energies soared towards Kashia, but the girl was rather quick, and in a daring stunt, she jumped to the side and with out losing any balance, kept running. Seru's attack arched upwards, and slammed into the side of the canyon, blowing out clunks of rock which crashed to the ground and settled there. Seru turned sideways, and watched Kashia running full speed as the chunk of helicopter flew towards the Turks, and her speed was not going to be enough to beat it before it slammed into and consequently crushed her allies.

Seru made a noise, and then Kashia dived, and hard. The force of her body knocked both Turks out of harms way, but in doing so, she put herself in direct line of the chunk of metal, which hit her body at maximum velocity..........

Her body was sent careening several yards, smashing and slamming against the ground, her bones breaking , and wounds from both the ground and her collision with the helicopter piece squirting and gushing blood. She lay on the ground, losing blood and her consciousness, and Seru looked on as Reno stared to run over to her.

This time, Seru did not have a no care attitude, there was something about women, and especially this girl that bothered it more than anything, and it had mutilated her.

Reno started to freak out. "Oh man, no!!! Look at her, we need a medic down here quick." he winced in pain from the slash on his arm, but was much more worried about Kashia. "There is so much blood loss. Maybe this will work." He pulled out a materia. and placed it next to her, and it started to shine dully. "It isn't working the way it should, these things seem to always have a fluke, it only healed some of the smaller wounds." Reno saw Seru coming towards him. "Heyy get back!!"

Seru just kept moving closer, and reno jumped up and extended his leg in a thrusting kick, but Seru merely raised its hand, and blasted Reno in the chest with a fireball, spinning halfway around and blasting away the Brick Turk with its holy sword. Kashia's body stirred, and it floated up, encased in a telekinetic shell, and the armor being floated up into the air, taking Kashia with it, warping away at incredible speeds.

[Seirio]

Katana awoke once again to the sound of footsteps. Several men in surgeon suits walked in with several scalpels, knives, and one carrying his own long katana. He put 2 and 2 together. Him naked on a table and paralize, men with sharp implements, he was going to die.Looks like im going to die now. I wanted revenge before it was too late....oh well. He'll get killed eventually. He wanted to escape badly even after submitting to his current fate. The men slowly surrounded him and plunged their blades into his flesh. Blood spewed forth in great torrents as they made repeated incisions at. This may have seemed not that much of a big deal as he new he would have died within seconds. The strange thing however was that he didin't die. Katana was scared with the fear of being a living bloody mess. And the worst part of it is, hh could feel evey single cut made.

Then he saw a very large tray holding several pieces of strange stone. Katana looked up and saw masses of globs of flesh. The doctors noticed him awake and one said," He's awak, use more gas, keep him asleep." They put a cup-like device on him and he stated smelling a sweet smell and everything went dark.

Katana awoke with sweat all over his face. "What the hell.....him. What the hell dide they do to me again?"He noticed his cloths were back on and his blade still at his side. He took off his shirt and looked at the reflection of himself and his body in the water. Besides the usual hundreads of scars and the old giant X shaped one on the chest and back from his past battles, he saw unusual colored marks all over him. They made very faint glow of blue and red." What the hell is this?" While looking at the scar for so long, he somehow became disorientated and looked away.


He felt abit less dizzy, and since he already found dirt everywhere on him he took a bath." Damn him, what the hell did he do this time? " Katana made a long sigh. It was still daylight luckily and it seemed only a few hours have pased. He finished up and changed into some spare civillian cloths. "Hmm, strange. With any luck they will fade within the month."

[GodofDeath]

Suddenly opening his eyes and stopping in mid-step after seeing Aerith hold out her hand in what seemed to be a way to try and stop him from approaching her.
What? Zack wondered while trying to think of what he might have done for her to react to him like she did. As he remind completely still with his foot still in the air. Hearing what she said Zack took a quick look underneath his foot and noticed that there was a yellow colored flower there, right where he was about to step.
Oh… Zack thought as he moved his foot and made sure that he had his both his feet on a patch of grass where there were no flowers. Taking a look around at the flowerbed, Zack smiled and look back at Aerith, after realizing that she must have been the one to have planted all of them or at least the one that took such good care of them for all of them to be in full bloom.

“I’m sorry about that.” Zack said as he watched his feet and made sure he was extra careful about watching out for any flowers as he made his way out of the flowerbed.
“But you should know I'm not really that normal.” Zack said with hint of a laugh, as he took a better look at the flowers and couldn’t help but notice how beautiful Aerith looked so in the midst of all of them.
“I guess flowers like these must a pretty rare sight. Especially in a city like Midgar, they must be somewhat of a luxury.” Zack said before suddenly feeling the vibrating of the cell phone in his pocket of his pants. Taking the cell phone out of his side pocket, he noticed that he had a missed call.
“Umm could you give me a quick second?” Zack asked as he smiled politely at Aerith before turning his back to her.

As he flipped open his phone and went to listen to the message Ceon had left him, the smile on Zack’s face quickly faded As he came to the sudden realization of his own situation and remembered what it was that had just happened with Angeal just a little while ago.
I should probably go back… Zack thought as he wondered if it was best for him to return back to headquarters.
“So I was wondering…” Zack said as he turned back around to look at Aerith.
“If a pretty girl like you isn’t too busy right now, she wouldn’t mind showing me the town.” Zack said about his hands behind his had a paced back and fourth as he tried to decide on what he should do.
“I mean I really don’t know this town all to well, so I don’t even have the slightest clue of what would be a really good place to take a girl for a date around here.” Zack said as he stopped pacing and looked back at Aerith with a smiled. As he figured that if she did show him around it would be easier for him to find the entrance to Midgar rather then having to walk about aimlessly alone to look for it.

[Infinis Ultimato]

Meanwhile, far from combat, people were gathered to observe the newest addition to an array of battle prizes/ artifacts. A rare and ancient material was recently discovered by Dio, the owner of the Gold Saucer during a short excavation at the Bone Village. He travels there often to find new trinkets to host in his museum or give away as prizes to warriors who completed certain challenges in the Battle Arena. Anyways, Dio wanted to show off this materia with the idea of either selling it to the highest bidder or giving it away as a prize.

Many tourists began taking many pictures and closely examined the materia. This sparked questions such as “What kind of materia is it? Summon? Support? Magic?Common? Independent? Unique?” Sadly, no tourist had enough money to actually bid for the materia so Dio decides to give out as a prize. “Well, today special prize is this one of a kind item, the Sevens Materia. Whoever can defeat the special monster in the arena can walk away with this materia plus other prizes. Who’s up for it?” The special monster was a small purple dragon that possessed elemental flames and excellent offensive and defense skills. People tried to defeat but each fell to its might.

[Shattered Redemption]

The walls of the establishment radiated with more than a spectrum of colors, this place was a nexus for pure energy of almost every kind, as the materia that was naturally made here was substantially better than what you could make out of mako fragments. The bright light that shined from the mixture of materia in the walls bathed Kashia's unconscious form and made her look extremely peaceful, but there was not a doubt in Seru's mind that she would not be that way upon waking up at all. Seru had felt bad for what it had done to her because she was a woman, and women did not need to be injured in such a manner. At least not that fast anyway, nor with no way to defend themselves at all.

Seru looked down at Kashia, whom was curled up into a ball, her body had reacted to the materia perfectly, absorbing the properties of the destructive materia in seconds. Seru was amused that she didn't end up dead like the last person whom had been tested with it. "Hmm, she did survive, but only time will tell if this woman can control this materia, or if it will merely eat away at her until there is nothing left at all." Seru laughed, and stared down at Kashia again. It looked like she was waking up.

It could have awakened her of its own will a long time ago, but in procedures such as this one, the body needed to be introduced to the substance, and then revive itself with out any other interference. "This is excellent. Her body has began to absorb it into her soul as well. Such materia can never be removed. even after death!!!! AHAHAHA!!!"

"Just the slightest molecular valence gives me notion of her new abilities." There crest mark on the center of Kashia's back was beautiful, but the beauty of it all was a paradox. Through the power of the Halliphax Materia, Kashia would obtain massive destructive powers, those of which could herald her as a heroine, or merely drive her insane with power to control others by force.

Seru waited for her to wake up, no doubt angry or worse, and shocked by the way she could feel the power radiating through her body.

[AngelofDestiny]

Tifa made it out of Nibelheim and to Zangan, who had been waiting for her. "You're unusually early," he said, glancing suspiciously at her. "Something on your mind?" She shook her head just smiling and looking like she was ready to train. "All right then, that's the spirit! Now come on, let's walk out a little into the wilderness and see if we can find any monsters to battle ..." He saw her slightly worried look, but he laughed it off. "You'll be fine, Tifa. Just stay near me if you feel a little anxious about this. The only way you can really progress is through practice. Now I don't really want you to practice on me considering what happened last time ..." Tifa grinned and rolled her eyes; how could she forget? "I know, I know," she smiled innocently. "I did it a little too hard and too quick for you. I guess monsters are the only ones that I can practice on in the end." Zangan sighed happily and glanced at the bruise that was still visible on his right arm. "You've made your mark on me for sure, Tifa Lockhart," he grinned.

They carried on walking and the more out into the wilderness they went, the more Tifa wondered about Cloud. Had he travelled far and wide? How did he feel when he left Nibelheim and travelled through this very wilderness? He'd never know how she felt. It was unlikely she'd ever see him again, unless he became famous like Sephiroth and became a hero. Besides, there was always the promise she made him swear to do. Tifa thought that she wouldn't be in a bind for much longer considering she was learning to fight herself now. In a mysterious world like this one, Tifa didn't know what to expect anymore. They came to a halt when a pack of wolves came running towards them. "Are you up to this?" asked Zangan. Tifa nodded. "Yeah, bring 'em on," she smiled, and raised her fists. As the wolves came closer, the two martial artists ran forward taking half of the pack each for themselves. Tifa didn't bother to see how her martial arts instructor was doing, but she concentrated on beating up her part of the pack instead.

Leofer had been relaxing all day in a forest. After yawning, he walked for awhile passing all the trees admiring all of them. Leofer loved the forest, the one place there was peace and silent and fresh air that wasn't polluted or chemically altered. His sword being at his back waiting to be used. He smiled as he heard bullet shots. Some of the remains of the bullets landed close to Leofer's feet. He ignored them, stepping on them, and at the same time moving them out of the path.

He tried to see who the people were or what was happening. He looked up to see a helicopter. It seemed that it was making the sounds and as the helicopter passed Leofer he swore that he saw a figure moving. Leofer knew that he wasn't suppose to go into other people's business, but he decided to check it out. By the time he decided the helicopter crashed and landed somewhere around a mile away from him.

"Well, I have nothing else to do I may as well check it out." With that he ran at a moderate speeding not wasting energy, but still making good timing. He stopped seeing it in flames. Everybody was dead and there was no way Leofer could do anything even though he probably wouldn't do that in the first place. He turned the other way and started to walk to the city not that far away from him. "Oh well, I guess I can just head somewhere."

[Sora_Rox_My_Sox]

Kashia awoke to a dull humming, accompanied with the low groan of a working machine. She felt as if she was floating, a tingling sensation dancing around her skin, like millions of tiny feathers...she felt weightless. Scenes replayed in her mind; she was running...she was flying through the air...she was firing her gun glove...And then she was hit by the realization. She was weightless because she was dead. She remembered herself throwing Reno out of the way, only to be hit by the oncoming helicopter piece. She remembered flying through the air, her bones shattering like glass inside her, her blood...

Was she dead? She didnt feel any pain, although she knew the impact would have more than just injured her. She could literally hear her bones breaking again, their sickening crunch as she lay bathed in her own blood, dying. She opened her eyes, her pupils dilating in the blinding light that hung overhead. She lifted her head, utterly surprised by the fact that she felt no pain. "I should be dead..." She said emotionlessly. Her voice had changed too; it was stronger, and had a commanding aura about it. She raised her hands, carefully examining them, looking for anything that was abnormal. She stared past her hands, to find herself floating in a containment of golden hued materia, it's wispy tendrils warping around her.

She suddenly became energized, a power rushed through her veins, her blood pumping aberrantly quick. The pusle was radiating from her back, all the energy she was filled with seemed to be coming from there. She carefully reached her hand behind her, delicately grazing the soft skin of her mid back until...She found the small abrasion in the center of her back, radiating with power and energy. "Is this all thats left?"

She looked around, her upgraded eyes picking up every miniscule detail, every flaw and imperfection. The colors seemed brighter, and all her senses were sharper. "What's happened to me!?" She shouted out, to nobody in particular but herself, but somebody had indeed heard her. She turned in the direction where she felt the largest mass of energy, her body even more elastic and flexible than she had ever dreamed. Her hazel eyes sharpened into a steely stare, as she looked upon the form of her abductor, the man who she had previously been attacking.

[Shattered Redemption]

One's mind always made an excuse when it could not deal with reality, as was the same with Kashia. Seru watched her from a few feet away, using just the tad flow of telepathic energies to get inside her head. 'You really are amusing. Do I look like a man to you??' Seru moved closer, its floating armor turning as the helmeted mask head stared at her. She was completely awake now, and Seru thought that her figure was a bit changed.

It chose to speak openly with her. "You are rather foolish, you could have gotten yourself killed doing what you did, I believe that heroics are for those whom actually can accomplish a given task, and not die trying." The capsule like object made of focused mako energy that contained Kashia was starting to leak because she was awake, so there was no real reason for her to stay inside it.

"What a waste." Seru moved right next to Kashia's encased body, and wielded Soul Calibur, slicing across the shell of mako that held her inside, which broke down, and in a flash. was gone. She stayed suspended, Seru using the iron side her blood to keep her in the air, but it was not completely binding as to where she could not get down if she tried to. "Next time, I won't hesitate to you."

It laughed, and spoke in her head again. 'Human'

"Now get out of my sight, and don't try anything stupid. I'll come for you again."

[Sora_Rox_My_Sox]

"Come for me again..." The words drifted off her own tongue in a soft tone, almost like the effortlessly spilled out. She looked over to her savior, or abductor...or both. He was merely a floating body of armor, no man at all, or as far as she could tell. Her blood was still pumping with it's new found energy, too much energy. She watched as the mako cage around her began to disipate, floating freely and evaporating into the air around her.

"Why did you help me?" She asked in a cautious tone, before she realized that whoever kidnapped her, might not have helped her. For all she knew, it could have made her condition worse. She made the quick deduction that she was some sort of experiment of its, probably taken as a test subject for whatever he had just done to her. The thought of someone, or something, tampering with her body and mind fightened her almost more than anything. She decided to take its advice, and get out of their sight.

She didnt wait for a reply to her question, but thought of a place to go. Instantly, she thought of her room, back at Turk headquarters. More than anything, she wanted to fall asleep in her own bed, the soft cotton sheets encasing her in warmth and comfort. Take me there! She practically shouted within her mind. What happened next, she couldnt explain.

She felt as if she were flying, but not her, the world around her. Her dark surroundings disintegrated, fading into evanescence, and she felt like she was being sucked through time and space itself. Her upgraded body and mind were much stronger, able to cope with the miniscule pain she was feeling at the moment, while her old self would have been writhing in pain. All went black, and she fell into something soft and cushy. She realized she had closed her eyes, and opened them immediately.

She was in her room, in her bed, snuggled under the covers...Just like she wanted. "Did i just teleport? What did that creep do to me!?" She knew there was more to the powers and abilities she had received, probably countless possibilities as to what she could do, but she was much to tired to fathom any of it. All she cared about, was that she was safe in her bed, away from that "it", and that she was alive. She fell into a dreamless sleep within moments of resting her head on her pillow.

[Aeriona]

Aerith glanced around the church as she heard a noise but it must have been something outside. She walked away from the flowerbed and stood on the opposite side of him. She picked up the basket and began to place a few flowers into it so she could take them to her mother. She watched him as he observed the flowers and started to talk about how much the flowers were worth in Midgar.His expression changed to a bit of annoyance as he reached in hi pocket and pulled out a cell phone. She laughed while watching him turn her back to her and do something on his phone. She brought her hand to her mouth to hide the smirk on her face and she gathered up all her gardening materials. She walked to the altar, placing everything in a box and locked it even though no one would steal gardening materials. She turned back around once she heard him say something and she smiled just at the sight of him. He was right, he wasn’t normal… something was different about him and she couldn’t tell what it was. One of the very shocking things was that she couldn’t sense what he felt. She tried so hard to focus on him but it was as if he had a shield around him.

“Oh, you need a tour of the city, huh?” She said, standing up and walking over toward him. “I don’t know… I guess I could always give you a tour and I am on my way back home, anyways.” She laughed, innocently and walked to check on her flowers one last time.

Light spilled across the floor as the new hole gave it room to enter the church. She touched the soil up a little on each side and then nodded her head. She walked over to Zack once again and smiled while looking up at him.

“I am ready.” She said, walking to the door but stopped and turned toward Zack. “I will take you through sector five, that is where I live.”

She walked outside, looking up at the plates that covered the sky. She breathed in slowly, trying to relax herself since she was on sort of a date. She didn’t know what it was about him but she liked him and he was fun to be around. She watched as people passed her while going about their day and she just nodded to them. She knew very few people unless they lived in the sector where her house was located. She knew more children than adults and she never really had any friends because she was always on surveillance. Her mother was always scared something was going to happen to her so she would stay inside most of the time. She glanced over her shoulder at the church and smiled. This was her second home and it wasn’t a very safe place but no one could keep her away from her flowers. It was the only place they grew except for the gardens around her house. She waited on Zack, crossing her arms and just kept a smile on her face. Nerves were starting to take over her emotions.

[Reckless Chaos]

Ceon didn't step into Nebilheim. He had used his telepathy rather quickly to find Tifa's mind. He read her mind, learning what she was thinking. He mind was focused on a fight that was taking place between her and a pack of wolves. Her minds displayed her actions since that was what she was thinking. Turning around, Ceon was lifted into the air, he then flew into the wilderness with immense speed. Finally he caught sight of what was going on as he levitated in the air. He landed beside Tifa and without moving, he released a concussive blast of psychic force. The pack of wolves were blasted away and Ceon turned and looked at Tifa using his periphial vision."Nice to see you, Tifa." Ceon said with a smile. He walked over to Zangan and said "Restore 3." A white light touched Zangan and he was healed.

Syra looked toward this man who had arrived. Sephiroth seemed to know this man as they were talking like they did. Syra only listened until this man had challegened Syra. "You really wanna face me. It's not the fact that I could totally kick Sephy's ass. Let's do this then." Syra said as he stood in his stance. It looked as though he was wide open to attack, but that wasn't the case. He was adept at this style and besides he didn't need to hold his sword with this style. He would pull it out to attack when neccessary and put it back.

OO: Syra's standing in the stance in his appearance pic.

[sephiroth2]

-----------------------------------------

"You really wanna face me. It's not the fact that I could totally kick Sephy's ass. Let's do this then." Sleif heard Syra say as he took a stance, that appeared to make himself wide open, Sleif knew better.
"Oh my dear boy! You have much to learn when you can't tell someone is holding back or not!" Sleif replied to Syra, as he motioned towards Sephiroth.

"If he had really been trying, you would not be standing!" said Sleif, a small smirk appearing on Sephiroths face as he had said that.
"That's an interesting stance you have there! But in this fight, you're going to want to have your sword at all times!" Sleif said, as he withdrew his extremely long black bladed sword.

"The first move is yours!" said Sleif, as he held the large sword in his right hand, while having it against his chest, in a stance.
