Cloud Strife

[Cloud Strife]

Midgar, Nebilheim, The Golden Saucer, Junon, Gaia

The world he knew, The home he once had was now gone. He didn't know were, he wasn't sure if there was a way back; but what he did know was that he was now here in an entirely new world. This new world seem a lot more Beautiful than Gaia, but it wasn't home. It seemed completely foreign to him. This man who had given everything to save his world on more than one account. He was now stripped from the very place he gave his everything to save. And his friends, were they here? Could he find them? Were they okay?

Cloud's mind raced with many thoughts, as the man stood on the top of a hill. His cloths rattled against his body as the gentle breeze blew past him. He reached up with a gloved hand as he brushed the bangs of his blonde hair which waving gently on top of his head out of his face. His head turned as he took in the details of the new world. It was crazy how could this place exist? And how did he get here? The sound of various animals in the distance calling out seemed like a soft symphony the weren't sound he exactly remember hearing on his world. Exactly how different was this world? There had to be an explanation for everything and he was going to find it.

Cloud's leg stepped forward the blue pants tugging against his leg, his black boot brushing against the soft grass as he walked forward to the edge of the hill. His mako filled eyes gently scanned the world in front of him. He looked down to his hand as the wing blew a small cloud of flower petals past him, reaching out to gently caress the breeze as it blue past. "Aerith, I miss you...Please watch over me...And make sure the others are safe..." He said in a soft whisper as his eyelids slowly concealed his eyes. There was a soft pang in his heart. His dear friend, he missed her so much. How much he wished he could be with her again, ask for her advice, hear her laugh. But it was too late, she was stolen from him. Even so, he knew he had to hold on to his hope. She was with him, watching him, protecting him, Through the life stream. One day he would be united with her once again.

When the gates of his eyes reopened he nodded his head to himself and clenched his hands into two fist, adjusting the large fusion sword on his back he began to run down the hill. With each step he took his speed increased. Running quickly through the grass, he knew he wouldn't be able to run the entire way, but he had to find someone that could help him start his journey, possibly a way back home, and maybe if he was lucky, his friends. His heart burned inside of him. It was just like always, he was heading full force. Not sure which direction to run, not sure where he was going and what he would find but he just couldn't hold back, not with the thought of his friends being out there. They were his strength. He could feel his blood rushing, with excitement. There was something waiting for him, he had a feeling, there was something about this world that gave him hope. Maybe it was the newness of it all, maybe the possibility of rejoining his friends for another adventure, or maybe deep in his heart, he longed for a way to help other once again.

Even if there wasn't a way back home, even if this was his new him for good. As he ran through the large endless field memories flooded his mind. From the beginning of joining SOLDIER as a recruit, looking up to sack and Sephiroth, to the days of finding new friends and living into the of his best friend Zack. Those days were so dark, confusing. He learned many things on that adventure, but the loss of Aerith and having to fight and kill sephirtoh, a friend who had lost mind and deemed himself a savior in the name of his mother. It did a lot to him, forced him to grow up. But even after all that he was still weak. No matter how many enemies he defeated, he still couldn't defeat one. Himself, the lies that continuously attacked his hear. The lies of being weak, of being a failure, of being a nobody. Those lies he was unable to defeat. Until the return of an old enemy, as well as an old friend. His fight with Sephiroth, his vision and slight moment with Aerith. The support and love from all of his friends. It was because of them, his strength returned; And the darkness was washed away and hope returned.

Now in this new world. He had to hold onto that hope. To find his friends and to get home, and if that was impossible to make a new home here. There was a feeling in his heart, one that told him there was something about this world. Something about this place that wouldn't be good. cloud had been in enough fights in his lifetime. He could taste it in the air. Something wasn't right, as peaceful as this world seemed, it seemed to be shrouded in darkness.

"I will share this light....No matter the cost..."
