Chapter 1 Trial for the 4 silver head men

/I've revised this chapter/

Darkness. Darkness everywhere. No matter how hard they looked, or where they looked, all they could see was darkness. Then, FLASH, a huge light appeared everywhere, taking place of the darkness. They could see that they were in a large coliseum of some kind with what seemed like millions of people in it.They also noticed that there legs and arms were bound in chains. It also appeared to them that they were all together, Sephiroth in front of the other three.

"Sephiroth," said Kadaj sadly. "I'm guessing you didn't win against Cloud."

Sephiroth turned his head, facing his three clones. "Mother has chosen to abandon us" said Sephiroth carelessly.

The three silvered haired men went wide eyed hearing this. This topic came second priority as a loud voice spoke to the four men. Three figures that were familiar to them came up in what looked like silk robes from another era. The first was a large Tonberry, probably a King Tonberry. The second was a huge fat Moogle. The final one, who sitting in the middle of the other two, was a girl in a pink robe, long brown hair, blue eyes, and a pink bow in her air. The four men automatically knew who this was. She was the one that released Holy, destroyed Meteor, and cured the Geostigma. Aeris Gainsbourgh.

The large Tonberry was the first to speak "We are here to pass judgement on these four, who have passed from the world of life, to the world of death."

The crowd were shouting the word 'GUILTY' over and over again, until the large moogle raised it's hand in the air causing silence instantly. The moogle cleared it's throat and spoke to the crowd.

"I know that you all want these four to be guilty, however," said the Moogle with dread in that last word. "They must be given a fair trial. Now, Sephiroth. Do you admit summoning Meteor, causing the deaths of thousands, trying to bring back JENOVA, and plaguing the planet with Geostigma. Kupo?"

Sephiroth looked up at the moogle with cold eyes. Not cold eyes of hatred for the moogle, but as if he was about to cry. "...Yes"

The crowd starting saying 'guilty' again, until the Moogle once again raised his hand for complete silence. The moogle shifted his beady eyes to the three silvered haired men.

"Do you, Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz, admit in torturing humans, poisoning children, killing innocent humans, and reviving JENOVA, Kupo?" said the Moogle in a angry tone.

Loz nodded while Yazoo looked up at the moogle in disgust and Kadaj just stared the ground. The 'Guilty' phrase came up again, and this time, the moogle didn't put his hands up for silence. Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz looked all around them, at the people as if seeing if they would kill them. Sephiroth on the other hand was looking at Aeris. Her face seemed sad, as if the trial of the one who killed her was unbearable to watch. This puzzled Sephiroth in many ways.

The crowd ceased there chanting on their own accord after a short while. The large Tonberry got up, walked to the edge of the large platform that the three were on, and spoke directly to the four men.

"Then your punishment, and your sentence has already been decided," said the Tonberry. "The sentence: IS DEATH. And your punishment shall be that you will never be reincarnated on any world."

The crowd was now cheering for the decision that the council made. The mens jaws had dropped, their fates being worse than death. Aeris on the other hand had looked completely shocked. After a short while the Moogle said in loud voice for all to here, "Do you have anything to say in your defense?"

Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz looked at each other to see if anyone had an idea. The crowd cheering soon died out, as if they wanted to here their plea for forgiveness. The four men could've sworn that they saw a smile on everyone's faces. Sephiroth cleared his throat and spoke, looking directly into Aeris's eyes.

"I...admit that we have caused the planet much pain. However, we were under the influence of JENOVA, the so claimed ruler of the cosmos," said Sephiroth. The Tonberry and the Moogle looked deeply at Sephiroth, though he didn't pay much attention. Aeris though was looking at Sephiroth with a slight smile, as if she wanted him to live.

Sephiroth continued, "I demand a retest. A second chance in other words."

"OUTRAGEOUS," said the Tonberry with anger in his voice. "We wouldn't dare let you have another sec-," put his words were cut short. Aeris' hand had gone up, commanding complete silence. It was obvious that she was the leader of the three.

"What, exactly did you have in mind," said Aeris smiling. The Tonberry and Moogle had turned to look at her, awestruck.

Sephiroth smiled back at Aeris. He had never once blinked while talking to Aeris. "What if we we're transported to another planet, that we could redo our lives on. When we die there, then you could pass final judgement on us."

The Tonberry, and Moogle looked back from Sephiroth, to Aeris, who looked liked she approved of it right off. The Moogle looked back at Sephiroth in discuss. The Tonberry looked at him with cold eyes. Aeris on the other hand, seemed happy about the proposal.

"I approve of your plan Sephiroth," said Aeris happily. The other two members didn't seem so pleased about it though.

"We don't approve of the idea," said the two in unison.

"With there current power they could destroy any world," said the Tonberry to Aeris.

There was a lot of hissing and chanting among the crowd. Sephiroth didn't pay much attention as he was to interested in what the council's decision would be. Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz were also staring intensely at the council members, though Sephiroth knew they wouldn't really approve of the idea of helping people, or starting fresh and becoming good.

After a while of the three council members talking, Kadaj finally spoke up. "I agree with Sephiroth's idea." The remaining silver haired men turned to look at Kadaj while the three council members turned to look at him. "I admit, turning over a new leaf isn't really my idea of redemption, but... I will if I must. And to make it fair, you...can...suppress...our Jenova powers."

"That's crazy Kadaj," said Yazoo speaking up for the first time during the duration they were there. "If they do that, we'll have the power of a normal human."

"Excellent idea," said the Moogle with an evil smile. "I'll agree to there conditions now."

"Well I'm still not convinced," said the Tonberry crossing his large green arms. "What about all the Materia they possess. It's still makes them stronger than A-Class Fiends."

"We'll send them with one Materia of there choosing," said Aeris in a final tone. It appeared as if the Tonberry had nothing else to say. After a second or two he agreed to proposal Sephiroth had made. With reduced power, and one Materia of there choosing.

"Now then, where shall we send these four," said Aeris in a sweet tone. It apparently bothered the other two that she could be so kind to her murderer.

"How about...Spira," said the Moogle after some thought. Both Aeris and the Tonberry approved of this. Sephiroth had a faint idea about Spira from JENOVA being inside of him. It was a world under rule of a religion called Yevon. Sephiroth also knew it was under attack by a powerful entity called Sin.

"Alright, it's settled," said Aeris turning to the four silver men. "Now, pick. What Materia will you bring to Spira with you."

"Bahamut Sin," said Kadaj without a second thought. It did make sense. He used it quite well on his first try against Cloud and his friends.

"Time," said Loz. Sephiroth thought that the main reason that he wanted it was because of his reduced power. He wanted his speed back.

"Contain magic," said Yazoo. Sephiroth didn't think there was a purpose with that Materia.

With some thinking, Sephiroth said "Enemy Skill." His Enemy Skill Materia was mastered. All 24 techniques memorized, which had a well base of attacks. Offense, Defense, Status, Death, and Healing.

"Alright, begone worms," said the Tonberry raising a hand, destroying the chains that bounded them around their legs and arms.

"WAIT, I have one thing to say before I go," said Sephiroth holding up his left hand in a attempt to gain there attention. The three members looked at Sephiroth questionably. "Moogle, loose about 500 pounds you fat loser. Tonberry, stop dying so easily in the real word, it's embarrassing. And Aeris," she looked at him with questionable eyes "I'm sorry...for everything."

The last thing Sephiroth saw before he vanished into darkness again was a smile on Aeris' face.
