    Summary

    Outside in the heated night air, Cloud downed the dregs of his drink and set the cup on the top stair. Sighing unto the stars he looked up into the abyss, perhaps contemplating what lay out there. Much had been brought from the stars down upon them; enough to change all their lives, their world, forever.
    As he turned to mount Fenrir, something caught his eye. Just two miles distant, deep within the forgotten neighboring city, the fossil remains of ShinRa Power and Electric Company still loomed. Its broken carapace hardly hung together. But there, at the heart of the abandoned shell, a single window flowed with yellow light.
    Cloud’s expression darkened like a coming storm. Shoulders weighted down with foreboding, he switched on his bike. Turning it away from its original heading, he rode off down the main highway—right towards the dark streets of Midgar.

    Summary

    He took the buster sword from its place on his back and held it in front of him, reinforcing his stance. He was ready to swing the blade down onto the next machine, the next soldier or the next lost monster. 

    What Cloud saw instead made him almost falter, his grip slipping for a split-second.

    The boy in front of him looked to be around 17, maybe 18. His black hair stood out in wild spikes, a little matted from his slumber on the cot. There was a plaster on his left cheek.

    Blue eyes darted around in confusion, mako shining brightly in them and making Cloud bristle.

    A SOLDIER, then. His uniform gave his rank away, too.

    First Class.

    Cloud blinked.

    How did he not know him if they had been the same rank?

     
    Or

    Zack Fair gets a second chance at life, without any memory of what happened after Angeal's death.
    Unfortunately, his resurrection takes place several years later - during Cloud's invasion of the Shinra Power Company.

    Summary

    Everyone has a father. It’s just biology. Cloud is no exception, but he isn’t looking for an absentee parent, not at this late date. His priorities are simple and ambitious, pass the exam to become SOLDIER. With his friend Zack ready and willing to help, that goal might almost be attainable.

    Of course, when you’re least looking, the past can creep up and change everything.

    Summary

    Sephiroth retires to a remote island with his two friends. Unfortunately, he happened to purchase an island that's been claimed by a very obstinate young mer and his brother. Cloud and Zack are just the people to give the SOLDIERs meaning as more than trained killers—and, perhaps, to give them answers to questions they never thought to ask.

    Summary

    //…// „For the.. both of us“ //…//

    “Is that somebody‘s… grave?“
    Cloud had to swallow hardly again to get rid of the lump in his throat that made it all the harder to breath evenly. He lay a hand on Marlene‘s and Denzel‘s head. And shook his own. A wistful smile on his face.
    “No. A hero was born here.“

    _________________________________________________________________________

     

    Cloud tries to figure out a way how to uphold Zack‘s legacy and how to deal with his own grief over his best friend‘s death. Marlene, Denzel and Tifa are nudging him into the right direction.

    ___________________________

    Sometimes it takes time, sometimes it takes a parallel universe or something,

    They are a magic unto themselves.

    And together, they light the way for all of us.“

    Summary

    Between calls, they were tuned into the military line. The updates came in less and less. Distressed troopers calling in for backup that wouldn't come. On one hand, there was hope with the target still fighting back. On the other, it was horrifying getting update after update of the hits he was taking.

    As the rain picked up, they thought of calling the whole things off. It was dangerous, and visibility was shit.
