AN: I'm so happy to finally be able to write about the Final Fantasy VII world! And I'm happy that you all want to read my sequel! I'm still sick… (unfortunately) so right now, I have more time to type up the story! For new-comers… Welcome! I'm BANE or in a way, I'm Maigen. I don't think you should read this story until you've read the prequel to My Favor to the Planet. It's set in the real world, but it'll give you a background on the base of the story and where Maigen came from.
So…. Introducing the sequel to My Guilty Pleasures!
My Favor to the Planet Chapter I: Second Life!

The fire surrounded me as I clutched the last treasure I held dear. I stood in the middle of my room watching silently in despair as the flames licked the edges of my room. I had nothing to live for in this world, so maybe I should just pass on to the next. I remembered the memories that I made this past year. Genesis. Sephiroth. Zack. Weiss. Nero. Angeal. Vincent. Rufus. Kadaj. Cloud. Reno. Rude. Loz. Yazoo. Tseng. Tears fell from my eyes as I collapsed on the burning floor, the need for air too strong. Suffocating in the poisonous smoke and my own misery. My house was burning and I was going to burn with it. I listened to the maniacal laughter of the ones who caused this.
Closing my eyes and clutching the pack that I had carried to run away with, I whispered, "I'm not ready to die, Minerva." Clutching the photo of both my families (my biological and my figurative), I struggle to my feet to open the window. My hands, eyes, and lungs burned. The heat was too much as I tried to escape. It overcame we and I reached for the sky through the hole burnt into the roof of my room. "I can't die now. Help me Minerva. Please."
I desperately tried to keep my eyes open, but to no avail. I wanted to continue my life. I want to live.
And you shall have your wish child.
A flash of bright light took over my senses. A relief. Then I found myself in the Lifestream. "What am I doing here, Minerva? Am I dead?"
Turning to face the goddess, and I smiled I admiration. She was as beautiful as ever. She impresses me as a fellow woman, but it's not to compare since I am a mere human and she is a deity. Minerva gave me sympathetic eyes, "I did not intend for you to lose everything else, Maigen. So when you pleaded to me to save your life, there was only one thing to do. You are here in the Lifestream to move onto another world. It's thanks for helping me watch over the fated."
I nodded, "It was my pleasure."
"I have one more thing to ask of you, though." Minerva questioned.
I bowed, "What is your wish, goddess?"
"Could you look after the fated in their own world? Just make sure that the planet doesn't suffer any longer." She requested.
I smirked, "I would've done it without your request."
Minerva lifted her hand and a portal opened. "Would you like some equipment to start with?"
I smirked, "Knights of the Round, Bahamut ZERO, and Phoenix summon. Full Cure, Hell Firaga, Hell Thundaga, Flare, Electrocute, and Apocalypse. Two Dashes, and I want twin katana."
My arms and legs began to glow and I felt each power in me. I found the twin katana strapped to my left hip. I nodded my head towards Minerva, but she had disappeared. Blinking in bewilderment, I shrugged and walked towards the portal.
A great deed you will do the planet should you succeed. The question now is where you'll start. Do you have an answer? A voice spoke to me.
I nodded to no one in particular. "I choose Midgar. LOVELESS Avenue, behind the theater, if possible."
Your destination has been acknowledged. Please pick up the satchel near the portal and step through.
I picked the bag up and scolded the voice. "It's not a satchel, it's my backpack!"
Whatever. There's money inside. You do know that they won't remember you at all, right? Geez. How does Minerva deal with you?
I shrugged and strolled through the portal before saying, "She deals with me because she's not whiney and yes. I now that they won't remember me."
Hey! Then a bright light engulfed me.
You know how in most stories like these, the main character plummets to the ground? Well, I just woke up on the ground of LOVELESS Avenue. Lame right? Get this. They were under attack by Wutai troops. So yeah, I'm surrounded.
I awoke to find the edge of a spear pointed at my face. I glanced at the wielder. "Can you get this thing out of my face?" Stupid question I know.
The warrior did no such thing, so I took hold of the spear with my hands and shouted, "Electrocute!"
An electric storm surrounded me, shocking all the Wutai troops within 10 yards. I smirked as I saw them writhe in pain on the floor. "Don't worry. I won't kill any of you, but you won't be able to move for a very long time." I spoke in their native tone, which was Japanese on Earth.
I took out my katana and ran towards the fountain. On my way, I saw Turks and Shinra troops fighting the Wutai soldiers. Without a look back, I ran ahead to greet a sight that surprised me. The whole fountain area was filled with neatly filed Wutai soldiers. A few commanders stood at the front confronting a few familiar faces. Genesis Rhapsodos and Angeal Hewley were standing guard in front of… Hojo and Hollander.
"Hand over the scientists!" Yelled the Wutai commander in the middle.
Genesis raised his rapier, "I'm afraid that I cannot do that."
Before either side could attack, I raised a hand and yelled, "Apocalypse!"
A red alchemy circle appeared under the Wutai soldiers. All of their attention was turned to me. The Wutai soldiers in fright and anger, the SOLDIER commanders and troops in shock, and the two scientists in interest. I winced at the last one. Scientists having an interest in things usually ended in experimentation.
I gathered energy into my hand and released it to the sky, causing lightning and fire to rain down on them. The majority of them were killed, but some lay on the floor barely conscious. I breathed heavily.
"My, my. A child is able to harness such massive power. Interesting. Very interesting." Hojo commented aloud. My heart stopped as I turned to face him. Seeing the look on his face, I used my dash Materia to run out of the fountain area. But not before Hojo yelled, "You two. Capture her!"
At that point, I knew I was dead if I didn't outrun the two First Class SOLDIERs. "Merda!" I cursed in Italian. I ran as fast as I could, passing Wutai and SOLDIER troops alike in my haste to the outskirts of Midgar. I knew that even with a head start, I wouldn't be able to get past the slums if I didn't use my two Dash Materias in my knees. I heard steps and swords being drawn behind me. I twisted around with my twin katana to block their strikes. I jumped and back-flipped away from the two, holding my two swords in the same manner that Sephiroth taught me. I snarled, "Just leave me alone!"
Angeal stepped back in surprise at how similar my fighting stance was to Sephiroth's. He shook his head, "It's an order from our superior. Sorry."
Genesis stared at me for a while before he asked. "Do you read LOVELESS?"
The question surprised me, I scratched my head. "Uh, I practically have the whole thing memorized. Does that answer your question?"
Genesis nodded and a Materia glowed in his arm. "I see." He raised his hand to Angeal, "Stop!"
Angeal froze, "What are you doing, Genesis?"
Genesis cast stop on himself, "I cannot allow an innocent child become an experiment for a crazy scientist's pleasure!"
I was still stunned. "You'd help a stranger? What about your reputation as a SOLDIER First Class?"
Genesis turned his eyes to me. Those eyes that I had loved before he was sent back to Gaia and forgot about me. "A child does not belong in a lab with a deranged scientist. So I would suggest you escape before they catch up to us."
I smirked and crossed my arms. "I have a message for you both. That is why I came here."
Genesis scowled, "Make it fast. They'll be here any minute now."
I reached into my pack to pull out the copy of LOVELESS that he had left behind in my world. "A great man once told me that he'd sacrifice everything to save those he cares about. I now know what he was talking about." I knew that I had to save them, even if it meant denying me my pleasure of living the whole storyline and the pleasure of regaining Genesis's love. I spoke again, "If you two find yourselves injured from anything and the wound will not heal, meet me in Nibelheim at the abandoned Shinra Mansion."
Angeal nodded, "We'll be sure to visit you."
I nodded and felt my left elbow give off a warm glow. "Looks like my Bahamut wants to take flight." I raised my arm to the sky as Bahamut ZERO was summoned. It soared through the sky, stretching its wings before hovering behind me. I jumped onto the Bahamut with some difficulty. "Can you take me to Nibelheim?" I asked politely. It roared and nodded its head in the affirmative. I smirked as we touched off the ground. Turning back towards the two First Class SOLDIERs I waved and called out, "I hope to see you both again! And Angeal?"
"What is it?" he yelled out.
I grinned cheekily, "Make you sure you give Zack a good lecture about honor!"
I didn't get to hear his reply because ZERO had took this time to take off. After the first two seconds in the air, I felt that I could no longer keep my eyes open. Yawning, I embraced ZERO's back before drifting off to sleep.
Nobody's POV (With Genesis and Angeal)
Genesis rotated his neck in an attempt to lessen the kink in his neck. Angeal was too busy staring off at the direction that Maigen had left to do anything. The spell that Genesis cast had faded within 5 minutes, but by then, the strange girl that they met had been too far to chase after.
"A child that can summon the power of a mighty Bahamut. That is extremely surprising." Genesis commented in an attempt to break the silence.
Angeal nodded, "But how did she know about Zack? The puppy just became Second Class, so I don't expect many to know of him."
Genesis shrugged, "I feel like I've met her from somewhere. A sort of tug overcame my heart when she left."
Angeal nodded and moved from his frozen position. "I felt it too. I don't exactly get the message she gave us though."
As the two First Class SOLDIERs exited the slums, a lone figure stayed behind in the shadows, still staring off at the direction Maigen had flown off to. "They don't seem to remember you Maigen. But I did promise that I'd always love you. It'll be a while, but at least I know where you reside."
