Midgard..what a dismal place it was this time of year. It seemed to be in the time where everything was going into its seasonal sleep and winter would soon come and snow would fall all around leaving a blanket of white on the ground. Heh, that kind of peace sickened me, made my stomach churn in knots and the bile in my throat rise.
I had made a promise to a certain someone long ago and kept my word about it. Now I sit here upon ancient ruins, where my little brother, of sorts awoke me to take flight and battle against the one known as Cloud.
One knee was against my chest or as close as it could get without harming the swollen mound that was my stomach, while my other leg hung from a ledge. I felt the chill of the wind blow by and held onto my silver locks to keep my hair from blowing in my face. The Masamune that I was well known for using laid by my side in its sheath.
A presence soon decided to make itself known, that presence, a soft flutter soon turned to even stronger kicks. As I moved to shift my weight for what seemed like the hundredth time today I brought a hand to my stomach looking at the swell. Oh how I remember that night, the night Cloud and I conceived our..my child. Cloud was to have nothing to do with this child, I swore on that the moment I began to notice I was...how's that saying go? With child. Why these people had so many names for this one little pheomina was beyond me, but I was due to have my child soon enough.
I know Cloud's probably wondering where I am, he's strange like that. A slight chuckle ushers fourth from my lips as I think of Cloud trying to find me. To find out where I've been, why I left him after bedding him and sharing a night with him, in which the outcome is this little one growing in my belly. But none of that matters to me...it never has, and it never will. Jenova will not know of her weak willed father.
Jenova...yes I named her after mother, it is the least I can do to honor her...Actually my true mother from what I understand was a pretty Shinra scientist named...what was it again...Lucrezia or something of that nature. Sadly she's dead though...good let her stay dead...Jenova is my only and true mother now, and now I shall honor her legacy by gracing my daughter with that name. Nevermind if Cloud disapproves of it I can care less.
Another chilling wind blows by as I slowly stand lifting the Masamune and placed it in its rightful spot between my pants and belt as I waited spreading my one wing, and flew off into the sky.
Soaring through this dismal sky seemed to only bring back memories of my old days as being part of SOLIDER, Back when it was me Angeal, and of course Genesis....Then Cloud came and everything as they say went to hell. I continued my flight along the cool winds feeling Jenova's tiny movements inside me as I looked down at the ground looking for the little secluded piece of land I called..home. Small indeed it was...a little shack I built myself. A home for me and my little Jenova...bug enough for only us. Yes I was hiding Jenova from them...from the world, but if I was to protect her and myself, better I lay low before Cloud and I have our destined fight again.
I soon landed on top of a cliff and walked down seeing the shack in View and frowned some noticing the door was open. placing a hand on the Hilt of my Masamune I slowly walked towards the door opening it to my surprise a very familair face standing before me as I smiled.
"Cloud...."
