quero redemptio: Prologue
Disclaimer: These toys aren’t mine. Sephiroth, Cloud and the others belong to Squaresoft, who can have them back in perfect condition when I’m done, honestly. The plot is mine though, and so is ‘Creci, although, considering that she’s a Chocobo, I can’t really use her for anything but fanfics…
The wind came sudden, as it often did in the Northern Crater. Howling, it tore at the few twisted trees that were still standing as to make sure they didn’t try to stretch. It whipped up the snow, snow that had been undisturbed for almost five years, into a snowstorm, tearing even worse on its surroundings.
The tall man fell over, as a particularly vicious gust of wind tore at the ragged cloak he wore, and landed sprawled in two feet of snow. He shivered; the snow was even colder than the terrible wind. Slowly pulling himself to his feet, he dragged what was left of the cloak tighter around himself. Immediately, the wind seemed to be doing its best to push him back into the snow. The tall man forced himself to keep standing, to focus on his goal. “Kalm…” Green eyes focused for the first time in years, and didn’t blink, even as several strands of long silver hair, glued together with blood, water and something green and slimy, fell into his face. “…Kalm…”
Author’s notes;
Gah! The last thing I need to do is to start another fic now, but the idea was stuck in my mind, and wouldn’t leave me alone. I even dreamed about it… … And yes, I realize that this kind of “resurrect Sephiroth” fics are overdone, but I am just very biased when it comes to Sephiroth and Cloud as a couple. * Mutters * Sephiroth is much prettier than Tifa and Aeris, anyways…
