Okay people, this is my first fanfic so please be considerate. Tell me what you think and if you see any spelling or grammar mistakes. I know a lot of people don't like Mary-Sues but I wanted to round out the couples for the story. This story may get graphic later but I will warn you of that and try to section it off in a way that you can skip it and still keep up with the story if you choose to do so. I do not own Naruto or any of the Final Fantasy games, nor any other references you may find in this fic. I will try to site them as I go. Furthermore, I have not personally played FF7 and didn't get past the third disk on FF8, though I'm almost done with FF9, so I may get some things wrong. I do know most of the main story to FF7 and I have watched FF7: Advent Children so it shouldn't be too bad. There is no reference to Vincent's game cause it wasn't out when I started writing this. This story takes place long after the events of the movie so I doubt it'll be too big a deal. You can correct me on mistakes if you truly feel compelled to do so but please remember that this is a fan fiction and is slightly AU so I have artistic license.

I don't know if Team 7 and the others are thirteen before or after the exams but I'm making it before to fit the story. Most of the Naruto characters will end up with original characters of mine, though not all of them will. There will be m/m, f/f, and m/f in this fic. The pairings I know I'm aiming for are this (but they could change later depending on how the story goes):

Seth x Angel (m/f)

Sasuke x Gaara (m/m)

Kumori x Raven (m/m)

Naruto x Hinata (m/f)

Ino x Sakura (f/f)

Shino x Vress (m/f)

Neji x Cassyn (m/f)

Lee x Tenten (m/f)

Trey x Temari (m/f)

Shikamaru x Vestele (m/f)

Kakashi x Iruka (m/m)

Rea x Dawn (f/f)

Ashe x Valas (m/f)

Chapter 1

Angel Strife looked up from the work she was doing on her motorcycle as her baby brother walked into the bay of the airship. He came over to see what she was doing to Fenrir, the bike she had gotten from her father, Cloud. A small smile touched the full lips of her usually composed face. She patiently explained that she was modifying the bike so that she could ride it better. At thirteen years old she had the figure of her mother, Tifa, but though her legs were long they didn't quite reach the petals comfortably. Of course she made sure the changes she made were reversible for when she got older and taller. She shifted her weight allowing the sword, Ultima Weapon, a smaller duplicate of her father's, to rest more comfortably in the sheath on her back. Angel readjusted her sunglasses.

"Skyy, where's Jin?" She calmly asked her six year old brother while trying vainly to smooth down the spikes of his black hair. His bright blue eyes sparkled up at her.

Jin Lockheart was the four year old son of Marlene and Denzel Lockheart. (1) When their parents had all gone missing, Angel and Skyy had taken Jin in as their little brother. The shy brunette rarely left his brother's side. Before the raven haired child could answer the other boy bounded into the room. He smiled when he saw them and Angel felt another small smile tug at the corners of her mouth. Behind him was one of the most unusual people Angel had ever known. With her hair in varied shades of mint green, her caramel skin, and her forest green eyes Vress Vonray often reminded Angel of the legends she'd heard of tree nymphs and dryads when she was younger. The odd looking girl stood out all the more because she always had living insects in her hair. Mostly they were moths, dragonflies, and butterflies. In a glance Angel saw two moths, three dragonflies, and an equal number of butterflies. There was also a June bug as well as a butterfly cocoon to the left of her face. Vress had two equally unusual siblings. An eleven year old sister with lavender hair named Ashe and a nine year old brother with blue hair named Beck.

Angel raised a gloved hand to brush her silver bangs out of the way. Jin ran up and launched himself at his sister, tightly wrapping his small arms around her slim waist. She dropped a hand to pet his hair affectionately.

"Aneki!" (2) He cried joyfully, burying his face into her side.

Vress smiled calmly at her own reflection in Angel's sunglasses. "All is well on deck but Rea might need to talk to you to discuss our current course. Most of the other orphans have settled down to sleep but these two wouldn't lay down for anyone but you."

Skyy and Jin both smiled up at her.

Angel nodded to the girl, who was a full year younger than her. "Thank you Vress. I can handle them." Jin was small for his age so Angel had no trouble lifting him up to rest on her hip. That done she took Skyy's hand and headed to the barracks where her brothers shared a room across the hall from her own room. It didn't take her too long to get both boy settled down and tucked into bed.

"Goodnight Skyy." She whispered, kissing her little brother on the forehead. Then she turned around to the other bed and gave Jin his favorite stuffed animal. The large blue kitten was filled with stuffing beans and was covered in soft satin-like threads for fur. "Goodnight baby." She murmured as she kissed Jin's check. He smiled up at here in return. Jin didn't mind the nickname. He was the youngest on the airship, his fourth birthday had only been a week ago, and he was the smallest on board. The teen then turned out the light and let the door close behind her as she left. Bringing her talk with Vress to mind Angel started down the hallway towards the cockpit to find Rea.

As she neared the cockpit Angel heard raised voices. Angel sighed when she realized that Rea and Trey were arguing again. The two were the oldest on the airship, with both of them being seventeen, but it was often hard to tell their age based on their behavior. They argued worse than some of the ten year olds sometimes. Her heavy boots resounded purposefully against the metal stairs as she ascended then entered the piloting room. Angel came through the door prepared to scold the two for acting so childishly, yet again. She took her commanding position very seriously and expected the older teenagers to be more responsible. The two should be paying attention to the steering. There were young children on board the ship. As she entered the room the words left her mouth at the sight outside the dome glass windows of the cockpit.

"What the hell is that?" Angel calmly and quietly asked the older teenagers. The usually taciturn and brooding teen girl rarely raised her voice.

The two whipped around to face her before turning to the window. There, in front of the airship, was a swirl of multicolored lights and shadows. Both of the older teens' mouths dropped open in shock.

So much for that question. Angel thought sarcastically. She wondered if this strange magic had anything to do with the renegade Shinra airship that had been chasing after them earlier that day. Then Shera III (3), the airship orphanage, entered the spiral. For Angel the world spun crazily. She heard the sound of breaking glass, there were screams of terror, then she felt weightless and the world was no more in her mind.

"Hey! You there! What's your name?" Sasuke asked jumping down from the tree to face the three ninjas from Suna.

"Huh? W-Who me?" The girl with sand blond hair in four pig tails asked with a blush.

"No! I was talking to the spook beside you." He watched her face fall in disappointment. The red haired "spook" and the other weirdo with the face paint both seemed surprised.

"Gaara of the Sand, at your service." The "spook" replied. "And you are…?" he continued, surprising Sasuke slightly.

"Uchiha Sasuke." The dark Konoha genin replied with a smirk. Gaara locked eyes with him. Of course Naruto couldn't keep quiet for long. As the loudmouth blond came forward Sasuke had the strange sensation that some thing was wrong. Gaara continued to watch Sasuke as he looked around, a small frown of confusion on his fair face. Gaara continued to watch with increasing interest as a small pout formed when he noticed nothing amiss. Then the raven haired boy glanced up.

"Hey! Hey!" Naruto shouted at the people only about six feet from him. Gaara watched Sasuke's eyes widen in horror and, curious at the reaction, chose to look up himself. "Don't you wa--" The blond was cut off mid-word as Sasuke shoved him to the side and ran up the fence and tree, trying hard to get high enough in the air in time to help. There were very few things that could openly shock Gaara but what ever he saw clearly did just that. With everything happening so quickly the others around could only stand confused. Naruto hauled himself upright seconds after Sasuke leaped into the air from the top of the tree.

"Sasuke you--" He had been about to say "jerk" but the huge sword stuck pommel up in the ground where he had been standing changed his mind. He and the confused others finally looked up to see Sasuke catch a person who had apparently been falling after the sword. The thirteen year old shinobi used trees, buildings, and other surfaces to rebound in an attempt to lessen the force of the stop.

"Sasuke?" Sakura asked tentatively when the boy finally came to a stop near the massive sword. She stepped forward to get a better view of the new comer.

Sasuke gently laid the girl he had caught on the ground in front of him. Talk about a UFO… He thought when he glanced up at the colossal metal vessel in the air that the girl seemed to have come from. He could tell that the others were also weary of the floating metal ship but they were more curious about the girl he had saved. Sasuke began to check the girl for injuries. Okay, stating from the top…

The girl he saved had pale skin and silver hair. Her long bangs hung loosely around her beautiful face. The rest of her hair was braided and bound tightly to the back of her head to keep it out of the way. She wore sunglasses and he could see multiple piercing in both her ears. Around her neck was a black leather collar studded with slightly pointed metal squares most of the way around. In the front was the head of a wolf holding a ring in it's mouth.

So far she seems uninjured. Sasuke concluded simply because he had seen nothing to indicate other wise. Sasuke's eyes continued down in his examination. The boy just barely managed to keep the blush off his face. The girl was very well endowed, much to Sakura's envy. She was wearing a deep blue shirt that was zipped bellow the collarbone and short enough to reveal much of her slim waist. The shirt had only one black sleeve on the left arm. Both her hands were covered with gloves, the glove on her left stopped at the wrist whereas the glove on the right when all the way up to her elbow. The black pants she wore were slung low on her round hips and hugged her thighs tightly but were loose around her knees and lower down. There was a type of cape that seemed to be attached to the back of her pants or her belt (4), the bottom hem was torn and ragged.

On the girl's back there was a large odd looking sheath that Sasuke assumed was supposed to hold the sword behind him. There was also a shoulder cover on her left side and he counted several pouches on the two belts at her waist. One belt was tight around her while the other was loose. The last thing her looked at was her feet. She wore heavy boots (5). The whole outfit had a worn and comfortable feel to it. The raven haired Konoha ninja scooted back a bit when he noticed the girl was beginning to stir. He eyed the metal plates on her boots uneasily. They were obviously designed to be weapons.

When Angel's eyes opened behind her shades she noticed two things: the boy looking down at her and the airship, Shera III, above him. Not Raven. His eyes are red. She thought sitting up.

Being able to observe her surroundings better now Angel notice many other people gathered around her. Well I did just fall from the sky, she reasoned silently. Most of those around her she judged to be about her own age, a few looked like they could have been about Skyy's age. While looking around from her spot on the ground Angel noticed the boy who had been hovering over her when she woke was staying between her and her sword. She understood he was just being cautious but she wasn't happy to be relatively unarmed. Behind him was a girl with pink hair and green eyes who seemed to be trying to kill Angel with her glare. Her hair reminds me of Vress and her sibs… Wait! What did I do to be glared at? Angel looked at the girl's plain red dress and blue shorts. No figure at all under that thing. Someone should tell her that envy is a sin. Along with vanity. Jealousy is gonna get in the way of any friendship with her. Next to the glaring girl was a blond boy with blue eyes and whisker like scars on his cheeks. He was staring at her with the same blatant curiosity as the three younger kids around him. She considered his bright orange jumpsuit to be… painful on the eyes.

Angel stood up and brushed off her backside, glancing over her shoulder as she did so. First in her line of sight was a boy with red hair and cool, jade green eyes. His eyes had large black rings around them giving him a haunted look. The boy also had no discernible eyebrows and the kanji for "Love" was tattooed above his left eye on his forehead. Dressed in all black like the other boy behind him, the last thing Angel really paid attention too was the odd gourd on his back. Spooky, but still cool. Behind him was the other boy in black who had purple face paint and some thing on his back as well but Angel couldn't tell what was under the wrappings. Beside him stood a girl with sunny blond hair and angry teal eyes. She wore a pinkish dress thing and had a fan that was almost as tall as she was on her back.

She turned back to the first boy she'd seen. He was wearing a dark blue shit and white shorts. On his arms were white coverings that buckled on. She stared into his onyx eyes. "Who caught me?" She asked plainly.

"I did." He replied shortly, confirming her suspicions.

"Thanks for the save." Angel said with no noticeable enthusiasm. "Now what?"

"You could start by telling us your name." The redhead behind her answered.

"If I do, I'll want to know your names as well." Angel stated casually while looking over her shoulder at him.

"Fine." She turned back to the one who had saved her and raised an eyebrow. His answer had come quicker than she had expected.

"Angel." She introduced simply.

"Angel? That's it?" Snapped the still glaring girl in the red dress.

"That's all your getting for now." She replied smoothly, verbally brushing the girl off. And all your ever going to get with that tone. Angel couldn't help the slight smirk when the girl's face turned an angry red color.

"Sasuke." Interjected her dark eyed 'savior' before the two females could start fighting.

"Gaara of the Sand." The redhead behind her introduced.

The blond surged forward eagerly. "Hey!" He shouted, despite the short distance. "I'm Naruto and that," he swung an arm to the pink haired girl who still had an angry flush on her face, "is Sakura."

"I'm Temari." Said the blond girl with the huge fan.

That left the boy with the face paint. "My name is Kankuro." Angel nodded. The three kids were still unnamed but that wasn't overly important to Angel. However, she quickly found out that not everyone felt that way when one of the kids jumped in front of her.

"Hey you! My name is--"

"Konohamaru!" Called a stern voice from the side, interrupting the child. The boy jumped and whirled around.

"Grandpa!" He shouted, surprise registering clearly in his voice.

Angel turned to see an old man in a white robe and a funny looking diamond shaped hat. Surrounding him were numerous people all wearing the same green jacket, with the exception of the old man and one female that she could see.

"Master Kakashi!" Sakura shouted. A man with silver hair a few shades darker than Angel's waved. She saw that he had a mask that covered the bottom half of his face from the nose down. The peculiar headband that so many others were wearing was tilted to cover his left eye. The old man stepped forward towards Angel and she tensed in response, agitating several of the older folks surrounding the white robed man.

"I am the Lord Hokage." He said with an air of calm authority. The title meant nothing to Angel, so she stayed quiet. When adults got involved things usually ended badly for the orphans on Shera III. Besides, she still didn't have her sword. "We have not come here to harm you."

The silver haired teen didn't move but her thoughts raced. As she was trying to sort things out in her mind, Angel heard a familiar humming above them. With a sinking feeling Angel looked up, already knowing she would find the ship that had been following them there. The others around her were shocked to see another flying metal ship suddenly appear in the air over their heads. Angel's hand when up to her ear immediately. She extended a mouth piece from a cuff on her ear.

"Incoming! Shinra renegade ship approaching!" She shouted startling several bystanders who had been focused on the ships and not on her. In a streak of light Angel appeared behind Sasuke. "Get Ellone to take all the kids ten and younger to the safe room." She did a spinning kick, slamming the heel of her book against the hilt of her sword. The edge of the sword loosened in the ground. Angel quickly grasped the hilt and glanced up. "Brace! They're going to fire." With a fierce tug Angel yanked her sword's blade entirely free from the ground.

Okay that's the end of chapter 1. Please review and let me know what you think. I have more written but not typed and I won't bother typing it if no one's interested. I want to get at least one review for this. I don't think that's asking too much.

(1) I gave the orphan Denzel from the movie Tifa's last name.

(2) Aneki means Big Sister, along with one-chan and ne-san. Aniki, oni-chan, and ni-san all mean Big Brother.

(3) Shera was the name of the air ship in Advent Children.

(4) My dad calls this an ass cape.

(5) Her outfit is based on Cloud's from the movie. Don't fret she'll get her own style later.
