Final Fantasy - All Series Fan Fiction ❯ A Tale Of Tifa ❯ Lucrecia ( Chapter 11 )

Hello! Now we are going to get through the rest of this fanfic!!! Plus excuse me if the last chapter of Teef and Sephy wasn't graphic enough!*

Chapter 11

Sephiroth's Mother

A week had past since Teef and Sephiroth got together. Every day people came in to drink rent rooms for the night and so on. Sephiroth was still known as Seth Valentine and Tifa was Tifa. Sephiroth learned how to cook after a few days with Tifa teaching him. He actually enjoyed cooking! While he was frying some eggs and Tifa was serving beverages, a kind of voice popped into his head.

: Son, as much as I am happy to see you living a life, do not forget your mission. Find Vincent, your father. Look for my waterfall. :

: Mom? :

But her presence in his mind was gone. He would have to journey toward the waterfall tonight. What about Tifa?

"What about me?" Tifa asked as she came in carrying dirty glasses.

"I didn't say anything, Teef." Sephiroth replied. Tifa put the glasses into the sink and turned around looking at Sephiroth.

"I could have sworn that I heard you say, `What about Tifa?'" She said.

"Listen Tifa, I have to leave tonight. I have to find my father now or later it will be too late. Yet for what? That I really don't know." Sephiroth explained. Tifa nodded in agreement and smiled.

"Well I better get our chocobo's and our belongings." Tifa said and started for the door, only to stop and look back at the surprise Sephiroth, "What? You think you are going with out me? Think again lover boy, how are you going to survive out there? You'll be so bored…" Tifa teased. Sephiroth blushed and turned around to tend to the eggs.

That night they started their journey toward Lucrecia's Waterfall. Tifa had closed the bar down and had her friend Arlene tend to the customers who needed a room for the night. Tifa rode her golden chocobo Bright Rose, while Tifa gave Sephiroth her second golden chocobo, who had a red streak on his beak, Firehart. They left Costa del Sol traveling the land and camped several times when day grew into night.

Vincent Valentine was sitting polishing his guns when he heard Lucrecia call him. He smiled and walked over to the waterfall.

"What is it, love?" he said in a sweet way. Lucrecia laughed and came out of the cave beneath the waterfall.

"I want you to go get me some roses, if you don't mind." She said. Vince thought for a moment and knew just where to get some.

"Sure, anything for you, but it's a two day walk to where I had seen some wild roses growing." He explained, "You won't be lonely?"

"No dear, I'll be fine." Lucrecia answered. Vincent then left with a smile on his face. Even though Lucrecia was a spirit he still loved her. Now why does she want roses? Ah well, anything to make her happy.

Lucrecia watched Vincent walk off and then she quickly went back to the lifestream. She was in a kind of dream state and that was when she called out to her son.

: Sephiroth, where are you? Are you anywhere near? :

: Yes Mother. We will be arriving in a day or so. :

: We? Who's we? :

: I have a beautiful woman with me, I think you know her, Tifa Lockheart. We kind of got together, if you know what I mean. :

: I understand, please come quickly. If I don't see my son again, I might go crazy and disturb the balance in the Lifestream. :

: Very funny, mother. :

Tifa rode on Bright rose a bit surprised at what she had just heard. Sephiroth was speaking with his mother? But how can I hear that? I don't have special abilities…did I drink some bad water or something? Lucrecia is Seph's mother and Vincent is his father, yet Vince doesn't know about him. I wonder how he'll react when he finds out? I better hide or he'll start waving those guns around.

Later that night they set up camp and Tifa got some food that she stashed from her inn. Sephiroth had gone out to bring some dried wood so they could have a better cooking fire. It was about half an hour and Tifa was waiting for Seph to come. The supper was ready; two plates, drinks and all and he was late!!! After about another ten minutes she was getting worried. She went to the two chocobo's and started talking to them.

"Hey Bright Rose and Firehart. How are you two feeling? Been a while since you had a good race, Firehart. "A" class isn't so bad, but when I get the time I'll race you till you are in "S", O.K.?" Tifa sighed and slapped her forehead lightly, "Look at me! I'm talking to chocobo's, I'm alone, and a certain silver-haired guy is missing!"

Sephiroth was walking throughout the forests. He knew his way back but he kept walking on endlessly. Under one hand was a bundle of sticks and in the other he held Masamune. He also knew that Tifa was probably worried about him. Just then when he was about to decide to turn around and head straight back he found the waterfall. Lucrecia was sitting on the rock waiting for her son.

"Mother?" Sephiroth asked a bit surprised.

"Oh my dear boy!" Lucrecia said and outstretched her hands. He ran to her dropping the bundle on the bank. When he was about to hug her he passed through her like the wind. Sephiroth fell face first into the stream. He heard Lucrecia laughing and he groaned. His bangs were wet and stuck like glue to his cheeks.

"You did that on purpose, mom." He said.

"What? I would never do that! You have forgotten that you are alive again." She explained. Sephiroth got up and looked at her, "And you took advantage of that." Lucrecia smiled and notioned him to sit down.

"Something very terrible is going to happen. The spirits in the stream are talking about it and the planet is also talking about the trouble."

"Do you know what it is?" Sephiroth asked.

"No. No one knows what it is and what it will bring. Though I fear that it is much worse then the Calamity from the Skies. There is a book bound in rock, called The Ancient Prophecies. It is said that that book holds all of the future to be."

"Does it depict this trouble?' he asked.

"Maybe, yet I need you to find the book, because without it we are lost in the dark." Lucrecia answered. Her peaceful face turned worried and he nodded.

"So, where can we find it?" Sephiroth inquired.

"Probably where the Temple of The Ancients used to be." She answered, "Anyway, sleep here for tonight."

"But what about Tifa?" he asked.

"She'll be fine. Trust me."

"Very well."
