“I don’t want to still be hurt by this. Damn it.” It was ridiculous, really. I’d just found out that Sephiroth was alive, however nominally, and using my work to complete Jenova’s goals, and here I was thinking about the Turk.

“You can’t catch me!” Riku started running toward the entrance of the cave.

The man guarding the entrance wasn’t anyone I knew. Of course, he was only about 20, far too young for me to have known him. On reflection, he did remind me of a man I’d known years ago. Perhaps his father?

As much as Barret hated Shinra, there were a limited number of places to get a truly useful prosthetic limb, and this was the cheapest option, and he already hated himself for a hypocrite, so was there really so much to lose?

The lab was dark. This was not unusual. During the day it was bright with humming fluorescent lights, efficiently shining down on the equipment and chemicals. When the lab assistants fled upstairs after he dismissed them, the first thing Professor Hojo did was turn the lights out. While a lab lit by the glow [...]

The war was over in Wutai. Shinra had won — and it was just Shinra now, with no pretense of a war between nations. This had been a hostile corporate takeover that just happened to take place with armies instead of board members. Wutai was now a subsidiary of Shinra, Inc.

Teru was surprised to find another person on the beach that day. It was overcast and drizzling, and she thought everyone she knew was staying in. She would have stayed in as well, but her son was a very insistant five years old. So insistant was little Sora that he was running into the [...]
