Disclaimer: I do not own HP or Final Fantasy VII
This fic, which I thought of while finishing FF VII, will be a Harry Potter is Sephiroth fic. Wouldn't that be so awesome? Anyways pairing will be Harry(Sephiroth)/Fleur.
P.S.: Sephiroth's age will be altered a little to match the pairing, also he will be pretty much invincible, let's face it this is the ONE and ONLY Sephiroth, he kicks ass without trying his best.
All he could see was impending darkness….all he could feel was the unbearable pain in his head, he could remember nothing save a flash of green light and the horrendous wordless scream of a man. Slowly but surely, everything flickered and became dimmer as his life was slowly leaving his body.
Amongst the wreckage in the room of the cottage in Godric's Hollow, a violent flash of golden light erupted from nowhere. As the light dissipated, a woman with golden blonde hair that shined like the Sun, flawless youthful skin, adorned with heavy golden armor slowly landed on her feet of the charred wooden floor.
The Goddess, Minerva looked upon the small boy no older than three years old with unruly black hair lying in front of the cot. She cradled him in her arms and hugged him tightly, was it fate or was it coincidence that drove her to appear in this particular dimension but she knew that the boy she held in her arms was the one. He was to be the greatest hero the world would ever know.
"You'll not die today…Harry James Potter, you are destined for much greater things." With a blinding flash of golden light, Minerva and the small boy disappeared from this world.
In his short life, Harry James Potter had never felt so alone, there was nothing save him in an unending, bottomless pitch black darkness awoke from his unconscious state and found himself surrounded by absolute darkness. A warm, tart female voice sang out to him in his mind, "Be brave, Harry Potter…the world needs a hero." He tried communicating back but to no avail did the voice hear him. Then suddenly, light sliced through the darkness around him, and he found himself staring into cold dark eyes behind small round glasses that held absolutely no sentimentality in them.
In Shinra Mansion located in Nibelheim…
Professor Hojo was overjoyed despite his stoic face, the newly born child, his child, had successfully merged with the cells of Jenova. Next time he saw that pathetic excuse of a scientist Hollander; he would definitely enjoy rubbing the success of 'Project S' in his face.
He glanced at Project S's mother, his wife Lucrecia, unconscious from the childbirth. She was no longer needed seeing that Project S was completed, to Hojo; Lucrecia was just a means to achieve an end. Love, whoever came up with that immensely flawed theory could probably make Hollander seem like a genius. Hojo then looked at the child with bright green eyes in his arms,
"Your name will be…. Sephiroth." Then a young woman dressed in a black skirt, navy blue shirt and a white lab coat walked over, Hojo handed the child over to the woman and with a nod, she departed. Hojo was already going over some statistics, clearly feeling indifferent about giving his son away. The boy will eventually turn out to be the best super soldier that has ever walked the planet.
Meanwhile…
Albus Dumbledore, respected headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry burst into the destroyed living room of the cottage that belonged to James and Lily Potter located in Godric's Hollow.
To his great relief, James and Lily were just unconscious, he enervated the both of them, then the three of them rushed towards the nursery only to find the room utterly destroyed save the cot with crying noises coming from within.
Lily Potter burst into tears of happiness as her son, Jamie was well and truly alive. Both parents cradled the infant close to them but it all came crashing down when Lily realized that her eldest was no where to be seen.
"HARRY? HARRY? Where are you sweetheart? It's mommy, its okay now, the bad man is gone now." Lily cried out, and dread slowly filled her heart when no response came back.
Next to her, James felt his heart sank, "No, no, any minute now, Harry will pop out of no where and say it was just a prank." But nothing happened.
Sirius Black and Remus Lupin, close friends to the couple since their days at Hogwarts came running through the door.
"We came as fast as we could." Remus said hurriedly, his clothes were shabby and his hair was starting to grey.
"Is everyone alright?" Sirius asked, his handsome features marred with worry, he had a bad feeling in his gut when he saw the Potter's pale faces.
"Harry's gone missing!" James shouted.
"WHAT?" Remus exclaimed.
"Let's split up, he's gotta be here in this house somewhere." Sirius said quickly and the three Marauders fanned out of the room, Dumbledore and Lily could hear them shouting Harry's name out loud.
Albus Dumbledore was marveled at the magic still flowing throughout the nursery, he could identify three signatures: Voldemort's, Harry Potter's and a mysterious unidentifiable third signature. What he couldn't understand was that the unknown signature was greater than both Voldemort's and Young Harry's, in fact he had never felt a signature as strong as the one he was feeling now; the signature was not one of a wizard's or witches'. It was like a natural force.
Dumbledore quickly strolled towards Lily and examined Jamie Potter, to his great shock, there was no mark on him, Jamie Potter was not a Horcrux which meant that the prophecy of Neither one can live while the other survives was no longer applicable. He will need to pay the Department of Mysteries a visit as soon as possible, because if this new theory is correct then the prophecy is annulled.
Then the three marauders came back and Lily asked silently with wide eyes filled with tears. All three shook their heads and wept bitterly, Lily, stunned by the fact that her baby boy was gone lost all will to stand and would have fallen to the ground if it had not been for James' fast reflexes.
James then pleaded silently with Dumbledore who said in a soft and melancholy tone, "I cannot detect Harry's signature anywhere on the planet…I'm sorry." His old heart tearing as he saw uncontrolled tears trickling down James's face, Dumbledore had never felt so fatigued and ancient as he left the family to their grief.
Years later…
A nineteen year old young man wearing a long black coat with silver pauldrons, knee length black boots and full black clothing with the top parted, revealing a toned chest, covered by crossing leather straps; his hair was long and silver with bangs parted to either side of his flawless, pale face, his green cat like eyes was ever vigilant as he gazed at the sun setting view of virtual reality Junon.
After his birth, Shinra had raised Sephiroth to be a super soldier. He never knew his birth mother, only knowing that her name was "Jenova," and that she had died in childbirth. Since then, Sephiroth had gained worldwide fame for his exploits such as his role in Shinra's victory against the Wutai in 0000 and the mess with AVALANCHE in 0001. He also had the largest fan club, dwarfing the other two 1sts, Genesis's and Angeal's combined.
"Infinite in mystery is the gift of the goddess We seek it thus, and take to the sky Ripples form on the water's surface The wandering soul knows no rest…"
Sephiroth smirked as he turned around, the wind blowing gently against his hair, "Loveless, Act I." He simply said, facing his two only friends who were sitting on a ledge.
"Hnn…you remembered." A man in his early twenties wearing a long red coat, black clothing underneath, knee length black boots, black shoulder guards with reddish brown hair and light blue eyes remarked with a smirk, leaping down from the ledge as he did so. Genesis always had the poem by him, Sephiroth wouldn't be surprised if he slept with it.
The other man standing next to him snorted, he was tall with a muscular structure with black hair slicked back except for two bangs of hair on each side. He wore a standard SOLDIER 1st Class uniform and a large broad sword on his back.
"How could I not…when you've beaten it into my head." Sephiroth retorted, tapping the side of his head before giving a downward slash with his Masumune, a seven foot long katana that had served him faithfully throughout his ascension to Shinra's most powerful super soldier.
"Don't take Sephiroth lightly." Angeal Hewley, Sephiroth's other close friend warned jokingly, pulling out a standard Shinra sword.
Despite all his fame and glory, Sephiroth had an extremely cold exterior and his professional attitude, that turned people away save Genesis and Angeal, which he thought were worthy of carrying the title of SOLDIER 1st Class.
"Hnn…noted." Genesis retorted and leapt towards Sephiroth, his signature blood red rapier raised, with Angeal not far behind him. Clashes of metal could be heard as the two 1st Classes tried to land a blow on Sephiroth, only to be parried and countered in an inhumanely fast pace by his Masumune.
"Hnn…Is that the best you could do?" Sephiroth asked in a bored tone at Angeal as their blades clashed together and with great force pushed the Buster Sword wielder a few steps back.
"All hail Sephiroth huh?" Angeal remarked, he knew from their sparring sessions that Sephiroth never gave his one hundred percent, seeing that no one could defeat him, it was probably why.
"Angeal…." Angeal looked at Genesis, who had utter determination in his green eyes. "Stay back. I'll take Sephiroth alone " He said seriously, which was odd considering Genesis was the cheeriest out of the three of them.
"Genesis!" Angeal exclaimed with wide eyes.
Genesis, never once taking his light blue eyes off Sephiroth who looked amused said, "The world needs a new hero." Genesis ran his hand over his rapier and the blade immediately flared up in a red light.
"Hmmph…Come and try." Sephiroth simply retorted, "Brave but foolish." He thought.
"So smug…but for how long?" Genesis stated before leaping towards the long silver haired warrior.
In another dimension…
Years went by as Albus Dumbledore desperately searched for the Potter's missing child. He had, regardless that Harry's magical signature was gone, thought the boy will eventually show up. He was now giving his farewell speech towards his students.
Despite so many years had passed, Lily Potter was adamant that her son was still alive and healthy. The Potter family was never the same after that night when Harry disappeared but Jamie and their daughter, Rose brought back some of the laughter into their home.
Dumbledore had hoped to see the boy appear at Hogwarts, and help him grow along with giving him different obstacles to train him. But instead, without the boy, Dumbledore had to secure the Philosopher's Stone, facing a Shade of Voldemort in the process. Destroying the vessel, which housed the Dark Lord's spirit, the ancient headmaster watched as the spirit fled in rage.
The second year was just as chaotic, if not more chaotic as the Chamber of Secrets was opened and a giant poisonous serpent with the ability to kill anyone who dared look into its large yellow eyes was unleashed. Luckily, he, Filius and Severus were able to subdue the great beast within before any real casualties could be inflicted.
This pass year caused quite the commotion when the Potter's betrayer and former friend, Peter Pettigrew escaped from the Wizarding Prison, Azkaban. Pettigrew had not once been sited which was worrying which meant that the Dark Lord was going to be reborn very soon. Dumbledore sighed as he looked out the windows of his office, he was no longer the youth he was and if Voldemort returned, he feared that it would be one fight that he would have low chances of winning; which was why he spent all of his free time traveling all around the world searching for Harry Potter.
With Sephiroth…
Sephiroth was still and wide eyed from disbelief, the last thing he remembered was falling into the pool of Mako below the reactor on Mt. Nibel. Then he was thrown into an environment of pitch-black darkness.
"Sephiroth…my dear child, what have you done?" Sephiroth recognized that female voice immediately, he couldn't identify it but he had remembered it clearly.
"Show yourself!" Sephiroth commanded, already in battle stance with his Masumune over his left shoulder with the blade curving downward, his eyes filled with hate and insanity. Then a golden light flashed so intensely and sudden that Sephiroth dropped his sword and had to cover his eyes from the light's rays, he couldn't see a single thing. Sephiroth, the Legendary SOLDIER and the Hero, screamed in agony as the light attacked him, he felt as if his head was about to explode.
With an inhumane scream, which couldn't possibly belonged to Sephiroth, something misty came out of the SOLDIER 1st Class, causing Sephiroth to fall down breathing heavily.
"You'll never harm this child ever again…BEGONE!" The warm female voice commanded and Sephiroth heard a horrendous scream as bright luminous light filled the darkness.
"Genesis was right. I am a….monster, what have I done…." Minerva, The Goddess smiled sadly at him.
"You can never be a monster, my child, it was as I feared… you have always had the taint within you. I thought it would disappear on its own but apparently I am mistaken. It was not by your choice that had caused such events to happen."
"Taint? What taint?"
"Have you ever had dreams that you don't have explanations for?"
"More than I could remember, I keep dreaming about a little boy with black hair and always, that green light." Minerva sighed as she wrapped her arms around him.
"Well, that little boy was you in a matter of way, Harry James Potter was your original name…"
"Impossible…"
"Is it? Have you wondered where your abilities of teleportation came from and why of all the people in the world, only you possess it?" Minerva asked calmly. Sephiroth was at a loss for words, which never happened.
"So, my mother wasn't Jenova then?" Sephiroth stated, eyes devoid of any emotion, it seemed like his mind had returned to normal after that misty substance had left his body.
Minerva looked down at the enhanced soldier and replied sadly, "Jenova was an alien life form, its sole purpose is to destroy every sentient life form on the planet it lands on until there is nothing left." Minerva stated and subsequently raised an arm and bright light shone around them.
Sephiroth suddenly found himself seeing a meteor flying towards the Planet, creating a enormous crater on the surface, he then saw Jenova emerge and with a red gleam of its eyes, approached the Cetra and promptly gleaned their memories and emotions.
He stared in horror as the Cetra were mutated into monsters. He watched as the Cetra civilization fell, the few Cetra who had survived managed to band together to defeat Jenova and quarantined it inside the Northern Crater.
"But it was not meant to be…Jenova laid dormant for thousands of years. Then…" Another flash of light forced Sephiroth to cover his eyes and he was wide eyed with shock as soon as he took his arm away. He saw Professor Gast, one of the few people that he admired, excavating Jenova's remains and was outraged when the professor pronounced Jenova as a Cetra.
Sephiroth closed his eyes with shame as he saw what came next, the start of the Jenova project, which led to the birth of SOLDIER, Shinra's elite military force. Sephiroth's eyes burned with rage as he saw Hojo appear in what seemed to be a laboratory, his arm shook when he recalled the man tricking him to believe that his mother was Jenova and that she had died in childbirth when he was still a young boy.
"Lucrecia, if you want to call it off, we can stop all procedures." Hojo said in a fake kind voice that sickened Sephiroth to the core. The woman that responded had long chestnut brown hair tied in a bun with bangs at the side of her face wore a black skirt, lavender shirt and a lab coat, shook her head and with a small smile said
"Hojo, we've agreed on this…"
"Alright…" Hojo said in his incredibly convincing fake tone and proceeded to inject his wife and their unborn child, him with Jenova cells.
"She's my mother...my real mother..." Sephiroth mumbled to himself, his bangs of silver hair covering his emotion filled eyes, he would've never believed it but he was the son of that walking mass of complexes.
As the laboratory faded away leaving Sephiroth and Minerva alone in the timeless space they were in, Sephiroth suddenly asked, "But that still doesn't explain why I came into this world, reborn, nonetheless."
But the Goddess just smiled mysteriously. "Fate works in strange ways does it not, know that I have saved your life…that is enough."
Sephiroth raised an eyebrow but did not pursue the question; he did not know the full extent of this goddess' powers but knew it was far greater than his own.
"What happens now?" He asked, picking up his Masumune from the floor.
"You can choose to embrace death and be at peace or go back to the world where you originally came from." Sephiroth raised a questioning eyebrow.
"A great evil is gathering and if nothing is done about it…that dimension will eventually be destroyed."
"Let me guess, you want me to prevent that from happening if I want to live again." Sephiroth stated, his mind already began calculating the pros and cons.
"An even trade, do you not think so? Do this and any business between us is concluded."
"Done, I'll be your hand of justice…and also to repent for my sins" Sephiroth whispered the last sentence softly, though Minerva heard him nevertheless and a proud smile formed on her face. Then with an open palm, she opened up strange looking green portal while Sephiroth stared at it in awe.
"This portal will lead you to where you need to go...never lose sight of the hero that you are now…" The Goddess smiled as Sephiroth disappeared into the portal in a fast blur, leaving the world in which he grew up in behind. It was an intriguing experience for Sephiroth, who was spiraling through the depths of the void, it felt like being on a roller coaster that couldn't stop. After what seemed to be an eternity to Sephiroth, bright light shone through the lifeless dimension and as if guided by a supernatural force, the Legendary SOLDIER 1st Class flew towards it, his new home and path of redemption. Sephiroth was in for a rough landing as he literally, fell from the sky… closing his eyes and drawing on his power, he landed on his feet in the middle of a grassy plain with flawless grace.
Noticing there were no threats, Sephiroth sheathed his Masumune and surveyed the area and could see the entrance to a town and moved slowly and carefully towards it. He couldn't help but notice that there weren't any monsters since he had fallen into this world. As he entered the loud and lively village, Sephiroth noticed he was attracting a lot of attention and every woman was eyeing him with approval.
"Some things never change." He thought with amusement as he heard the gossip around him.
"Wow…who's that guy? He's so dreamy!" One woman said to her friends who were also having dreamy looks on their faces.
"I wonder what he looks like under that dashing black coat…" Another girl said with a sigh, staring at Sephiroth's partly exposed chest.
Sephiroth just smirked from all the attention as he walked into what seemed like a run down version of a bar. From the moment he stepped inside the pub, every set of eyes was diverted onto long silver haired man.
Approaching the counter, Sephiroth cleared his throat. He regretted doing so immediately when a curvy woman with curly blonde hair turned around and began eyeing him just like every female customer in the pub was.
Madam Rosmerta was sighing to herself, everyday was the same: children and ugly men coming to the pub, why couldn't anyone handsome just come in for once, her thoughts were interrupted when she heard a polite throat clearing sound. She was definitely in for a surprise as she turned around to greet the customer, a man in his early twenties with inhumane good looks, long silver hair accommodated with his cat like green eyes. His clothes were quite different than what wizards and muggles typically wore. He was dressed in a long black coat with silver pauldrons, knee length black boots and full black clothing with the top parted, revealing a very muscular and well toned chest, covered by crossing leather straps. Rosmerta suddenly felt as if someone had casted Fiendfrye in the room.
"Excuse me m'am but I seemed to have gotten lost, I was hoping that you could inform me of my current location." Sephiroth asked with his infamous smirk on his face.
"This is Hogsmeade my dear." The woman replied with a blush on her cheeks.
Sephiroth thanked her and left the pub in deep thought, he had never seen magic performed by little wooden sticks, fatigued from his journey from another dimension, Sephiroth took refuge on a large branch of an old oak tree not too far away from the village. With the birds singing their songs surrounding him, the Legendary SOLDIER 1st Class closed his eyes laid down on his back on the branch and allowed sleep to consume him.
With Dumbledore…
Albus Dumbledore was surveying the view from behind his windows, the delegates of Beauxbatons Academy of Magic and Durmstrang Institute or Magical Learning were coming in less than a week but he had a sinking feeling in his gut; he knew Tom Riddle was planning to return and the Tri-Wizard Tournament was an excellent opportunity.
Then his eyes went wide as he felt Harry Potter's magical signature appearing for the first time since that night years ago. Then with utmost haste, leaving his office, the ancient headmaster went searching for the Chosen One.
