Summary
Cloud and Zack ride together towards Midgar, chasing the trail Sephiroth left behind. Cloud swore to himself that he'd never forgive Zack, that he'd hang on to his hatred, for what he'd done to him - but he underestimated how hard it'd be to keep his distance from the only person by his side, especially while watching him fall apart under the guilt.

When Sephiroth imprints on Cloud at a meeting of two nations, no one expects how he will change their lives. Their pack is complete, or so they thought. Forced into close proximity, the pack slowly expands. But does Cloud understand he's safe now? Can they give him the help he needs?

Summary
Sephiroth, a victim to his instincts, wants children that his pack mates can not provide. The solution? A worthy omega to join their pack. And the best way to find one that isn't a spy or a gold digger is of course a Sugar Daddy App.
Cloud, desperate enough to clear his debt, tries out becoming a sugar baby, to finally be rid of the loan sharks and maybe eat a warm meal in peace.

Summary
In a final attempt to severe the twisted connection with Sephiroth and his delusions of grandeur - Cloud is cast into an alternate dimension for the planet's protection.
Simple enough.Except there’s one tiny hitch: in this reality, his alternate self was the soulmate of Midgar’s four most powerful SOLDIERs, Sephiroth included.
The problem?That counterpart is dead.
Now they’re all obsessed with tracking him down, and they’re not exactly the “let bygones be bygones” type.

Summary
“I don’t aim to be overly bold but the moment I saw you...” He paused, letting his gaze wander for a fraction before meeting his eyes again. “…figured I had to know you. Maybe even have you, if luck’s on my side.”
“Talk like that isn't exactly casual,” Cloud felt his pulse tick, but he managed to keep his voice steady. “You strike me as a whole mess of trouble.”
The man didn't respond, but his eyes pointedly traveled down from his face, examining the rest of him. Or as much as was visible, while sitting down. The scrutiny made him shift uncomfortably.
“Name’s Zack," he offered a self-assured smile, eyes looking straight into his own again. "I’m hopin’ it will be somethin’ to remember.”
~
Cloud was finally given the title of the deputy, just before two strangers entered his town and shook up his life.

“Hey, Cloud, I’m gonna come get you, okay?”
“Huh?”
There’s another pause.
Zack is already getting up, flicking on the light of the lamp at his bedside and going to grab a shirt.
“No, it’s fine,” Cloud says finally. “Really.”

Summary
"You are an odd man, aren't you?" Genesis says it the moment it comes to mind, then clears his throat and backtracks. "No offense meant."
"None taken," Cloud says, and from the way he shrugs a shoulder, he quite means it. "Still. Do you know how long?"
"No," Genesis closes his eyes and thinks. "The last year I remember…"
He murmurs it, surprised by how unsure he is of it, then opens his eyes. Cloud's face has taken a grim light, the fire's cast leaving a halo of light behind him.
"Genesis," Cloud says with more care than before, which already has Genesis worried. "I'm sorry. I think you've been under there for five years."

Summary
Skyé veor Ofrithor, or rather, Cloud Strife, has lived for millennia without venturing into the outside world. Yet one day, his best friend Tifa Lockhart had enough and dragged him off his mountain abode to the dwarven town of Corel.
Unbeknownst to him, he agreed to join a group of rebels who fight against Shin-ra's questionable business practices which may or may not include slavery of anyone possessing human blood. This wasn't really a big deal for many as well, humans were banished by the Cetran Council for creating homunculi.
Homunculi themselves became rare as the humans that created them were executed and the ones that existed had no sentience, and the ones which perished possessed no intelligence.
A being created with alchemy carrying a soulmate mark given to him by Gaia.
...would they see him as nothing more than an abomination too?
...or would they hate him for being "human" as well?

Summary
“You’re starving.” Zack says with dawning realization, watching the boy clutch at the wall behind him, nails chipping the paint. “When was the last time you fed?”
Cloud’s body heaves. His gums ache to sink his teeth into something, and his vision blurs around the edges. He doesn’t even have the decency to wipe the drool that slides down his chin. Doesn’t feel anything. The pangs of hunger overtaking his senses.
God, when was the last time he ate?
Cloud, a boy raised in a cult town run by vampires, falls for the man everyone calls ‘Father’. But on the night of his wedding, he’s forcibly turned and seemingly abandoned by his husband — his sire. Zack Fair, the bleeding heart, takes Cloud under his wing and a sinister past catches up with both of them.

Summary
Their lips meet, and it’s vicious. They’re not gentle or slow about it, they gnash at each other with bared teeth. Zack bites down on Cloud’s bottom lip hard enough to draw blood, swiping his tongue over the wound to soothe it. Cloud claws at his arms, pushing back against him, fighting to control the kiss. Zack doesn’t allow it. He takes Cloud by the wrists and pins his hands down by his hips.
They pull apart for a moment, just so he can whisper, “I don’t like you.”
“I don’t care.” Cloud spits back, chasing after Zack’s lips like a starved man.

Summary
It is the natural law of the world that each person has at least one soulmate. The amount of bonds tied to the soul can be easily determined with how many unique symbols there are in the soulmark everyone was born with.
Just as the sun always rises every morning and the stars twinkle every night, every pair—or group—of soulmates would always have a Dreamer. For even with the unique soulmarks that would hopefully allow soulmates to recognize each other, the vastness of the planet still makes it difficult for them to find one another.
Legends say that it was Gaia’s pity, for she could not bear the thought of soulmates never finding each other. Hence, blessing each bond with a Dreamer who would be able to unite their fated souls together. After awakening in their coming of age, a Dreamer would be able to connect everyone who shares their soul bond through a shared dreamscape. It was because of this blessing, many were able to find their fated ones during their lifetime.
-
Genesis, Angeal, Sephiroth, and Zack are considered lucky soulmates who have found each other way before shared dreams. But that luck backfires when they could only meet their last soulmate in a space beyond sleep and reality.

Summary
Pre-AC, after the start of the Geostigma crisis. Cloud is traveling around the continent, searching for some way to cure Denzel (and himself), and hiding from the demons of his past. As he explores the ruins of an old Shinra lab in Junon, he’s hit with a bad wave from the stigma. He passes out, and when he awakens, he finds himself still in the lab...but it’s a working lab, in an alternate Gaia where the events of his world never came to pass.
Cloud is captured by Hojo for the second time in his life. Luckily, the Cloud Strife of this Gaia is a SOLDIER, and is sent to Junon on a mission with Zack. They save the injured and comatose Cloud and bring him to Midgar, where Shinra arrives at the conclusion that since his DNA matches Cloud, Zack, and Sephiroth, he must be the product of an experiment to create a super SOLDIER with their genes.
Some would call this man a clone.
Zack prefers the term "son".

Tired and heavily wounded, Jenova was prepared to die the second she crash landed on another planet. The Cetra didn't care, so neither did she when she wiped them out. She had been content to wither away under ice, then too weak to do much of anything when the humans found her.
Jenova fell in love with the woman injected with her struggling cells, but she hated the scientist the woman worked with. When Sephiroth came into the world, Jenova was content. Then Hojo tried to take Sephiroth away from Lucrecia, and Jenova was angry- angrier than she had been in eons.
-
Or: Jenova, Lucrecia, and Vincent raise Sephiroth, navigating the minefield that is Jenova's patience with Shinra and her dream for Sephiroth to have friends. The Planet tries to stay optimistic.

Summary
SOLDIERs are the backbone of Shinra's power. In order to recruit more SOLDIER hopefuls, Shinra promises all sorts of incentives. A competitive salary with room and board provided is just the beginning!
For alphas, there's also the promise of their very own omega! An obedient and respectful omega generously provided by the company to satisfy their every need. ;)
SOLDIERs are heroes! And heroes only deserve the best! :D
*~*
It's tagged underage, but they're both teenagers.
This fic is meant to be eventual AGSZC, but it may take a while. I may not even be combining the packs in this fic, but in a follow-up fic. It depends on how long it takes me to get there. However there will definitely be interactions between all the characters!!!
