Final Fantasy - All Series Fan Fiction ❯ Alexandria ❯ The Meeting ( Chapter 1 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

Author Note:
This is a new story I have started based on a dream I had it weird and a lot of explaining will take place throughout. Most of it is a first person narrative from my OC but there will be some third person scenes.
 
Currently it is rated more for the language but there will be some other stuff later on but nothing too bad. Pairings will be unveiled later as I don't want to give to much away at the moment because I am not completely sure where I want this to go.
 
Disclaimer:
I don't own any characters apart from Alex. All Final Fantasy Characters belong to Square Enix. If I did own them then Genesis would play a much bigger role and kick Sephiroth's butt now and again :D
 
Chapter 1 - The meeting
 
Days had passed, maybe even weeks since I set out on my journey to Midgar in search of people I once called my friends. It had taken a long time but I had finally arrived and I was now walking through the streets reminiscing about the last time I was here many years ago as a member of Soldier. I had been left on deaths door by people I thought were on my side and taken and experimented on more to become what I am today. A failure. Through my thoughts I continue slowly down the streets not completely knowing where it is I am going.
 
“Who are you? What are you doing here? I haven't seen you around before” speaks a masculine voice from behind me. I cautiously turn around to be faced with a blonde male clasping a long buster sword as he clambered of his motorbike.
 
“Strife… Soldier First Class” I speak as I quickly summon my long thin blade as to defend myself if he was to become hostile. The gold blade shimmers in the little light the sun was emitting behind the grey clouds.
 
“Pfft in my head maybe… But who's asking?” he says to me as he begins to study my appearance. I pull down my black hood and shake my almost black hair out and straighten my red bandana.
 
“Alexandria second class, knew Zack Fair well went on a few missions with him and yourself” I explain as I lower my sword to my side. He looks into my mako red eyes with his mako blues. He studies my entire appearance from my black, brown hair to my steel toed boots. He raises his eyebrows at me in a questioning manner but says nothing to me. I begin to feel awkward through the silence and feeling the piercing glare from his cerulean eyes sparkling from the traces of mako found within them and the deep emotions raging through the young blonde.
 
“If you are who you say you are… Prove it” he says finally breaking the awkward silence between us. Without warning he springs forward buster sword in hand swinging it forward to hit me. I quickly jump backwards in an attempt to dodge the powerful swing and do a one handed back flip and use my gold blade to knock him backwards. Once on my feet he dashes forward again using his enhanced strength to send me off balance. I swing round and deflect hit after hit the blonde was sending at me in an attempt to make me immobile. Suddenly he jumps into the air and twists around causing the large sword to aim straight for my neck as to decapitate me. I quickly shut my eyes but nothing happens. After a few moments I slowly open my eyes to see the blunt side of the sword merely a centimetre from my throat and Cloud with a small mischievous smirk written across his pale features.
 
“Nice to see you again Ali it has been a while” he speaks with a smile as he lowers his blade. I fall onto my knees out of pure shock and allow my sword to disappear into shadows.
 
“Holy fuck Cloud I thought you were actually going to kill me” I say still trembling slightly. I start to feel slightly light headed after using what little strength I had left.
“First question where did you get that sword and second how did you make it disappear” Cloud asks me. I feel a sudden wave of nausea come over me.
 
“Cloud not that I don't want to answer your question but I haven't slept or consumed either food or drink for what I think is about twelve days not sure really lost track of time… But I think I am about…” I explain until I finally collapse face first on the ground unconscious.
 
TBC….
 
Well that's the first chapter short and gives nothing away but sort of gives hints to who Alexandria is… I am sure you can see the likeness
