December 30th, 07:00 PM.
New year is about to come and our family was in preparation for the celebration. Also serve as our new home party.
*RING* *RING* the bell rings.
"I'll get it!" I said as I get up.
Opening the door, I see Zack was there along with Sephiroth.
"Yo, look who I brought here!" he said pointing at Sephiroth.
"Long time to see, brother. Come, mom has been excited to meet you." I said as I let them in making him raised an eyebrow.
"Uh-huh? Brother? What do you mean by that?" said Zack confused while looking back and forth between us. "You are brother!" he said in surprise after seeing a similarity between us. Making me smirk at him before walking in.
"Mom, look who is here!" I said as we walk into the living room where everyone was.
"Sephiroth!" said Cloud in surprised as he stand up from his seat.
"Cloud, so you've been here all this time. No wonder he was strong right from the start when he joined SOLDIER. You've been training him huh." said Sephiroth.
"Sephiroth?" said mom as she walks toward us before she hugs Sephiroth who stayed in place awkwardly while she is crying.
"I am sorry, I'm so sorry that I can't bring you with me back then." she said in grief while hugging him tightly.
"Welcome home, Brother. Just think of this as your home." I said while patting his shoulder as he stood still awkwardly. While the other just stay silent while watching us.
Back in the garden.
"I've been told that my mother is Jenova and she is dead after my birth. Until you come and start to beat us five years ago that is. I've been investigating what happens years ago since then and what I see is not pretty. Then Genesis and Angeal went missing and were now being detained. I am all alone again then you showed up again in front of me. I don't know what to feel." Sephiroth said looking lonely as we sit while looking at the other doing a BBQ while Zack is prancing around making a joke of himself.
"Sorry about that, so what will you do now? Did you already know why that two friends of yours left right?" I asked and he nodded.
"They were looking for a cure, the Jenova Cell injected into the three of us is starting to degrade them shorting their lifespan. I don't even know if I have the same problems like them." he answers.
"Heh, that is easy to solve!" I said as my hand start to morph and stabbed into his body. Starting to fused him completely with the Jenova Cell.
"Now, that's taken care of." I said. "I've completely devoured the Jenova Cell that I can use all its abilities and even help other Jenova Cell holders to merge with it. Have done it with Mom and Cloud after Heidegger experimented on him. If you think about saving your friend, you can bring them here and I will do the same to them." I said and he nodded.
"I appreciate it." he said.
"Hey, don't do that! You are my brother and that is what family do. Helping each other when needed." I said while slapping his back.
"Now, let's join them. I want to eat the Barbecue." I said.
"No, I will just stay here. I'm not good with a crowd," he said while continuing to sit.
"That so? I'll tell mom to bring your food here then. She must have many things she wants to talk with you." I said as I leave him be.
A month later, Sephiroth defect from Shinra. Bringing with him Angeal and Genesis while Zack follows them along like a puppy. He brings them to me as I do the same with them what I do to Sephiroth along with Zack as he is also injected with Jenova Cell.
After that, Angeal suggest hat they should fight Shinra from now on, to wash their stained Honor and the sin they have when they work for Shinra. Genesis did not care and was okay to join while Sephiroth said that they are going to be hunted anyway. So, might as be.
For now, they will build up their strength and army first to even the field. Cloud decides to follow them along with Rosso and Shelke. With them Shalua also followed as she wants to look after Shelke and she has also been in a relationship with Zack who was excited to go with his mentor again.
"Sephiroth!" I call as they were preparing to leave.
"Remember that this is also your home. And if you need funds for that organization of yours, you can come to me. Because money is not something that I do not lack, hahaha. Just send either Could or Zack if you are busy. Take care!" I said.
"Noted! I will see you later then. Give my greeting to mother!" he said as he boards a reconnaissance ship that I've not used ever since I created it.
"Good, also you can use that ship to search for Arcadia that I let wander in the seas. We can easily meet if you go there." I told him as they were taking the Reconnaissance ship that never been used by me.
"Hey hey, Cloud said it was you who gave him Fenrir. I also want one!" said Zack.
"Okay, I will make one for each of you. I will call you later when it was finished." I answer him.

Two months after Sephiroth and Co, defection. Zack called me and asked what they should name their group. Being uncreative, I told them to call themselves Night Raids and Cloud jokingly said that I named it that because I liked to raid Shinra base in the past.
A month after Night Raid Establish. There was disaster happen as Mt. Corel Reactor explode. Devastating the inhabitants living there. Then a month later, Barret and Marlene come and settle in Sector Seventh Slums. He rents an apartment I own as of now. One-fourth of Sector Seventh was owned by me for my project of making Sector Seventh filled with flowers.
Three months later, Rena, Claudia, and Tifa build a restaurant that will become a bar at night and name it Seventh Heaven.
Six months later, Zack stayed at Arcadia training for a while to vent his sadness as the Mako Reactor in Gongaga explode taking the lives of his parents with it. To cheers him up, I gave him a new Sword as he gave his Buster sword back to Angeal even though he said he don't need it. His new Sword is Kubikiribocho that has all its ability added with the draining ability of Samehada but it drains Stamina instead and then added it to the user, making him stamina freaks.
From then on, he is like a kid high on sugar that it make Cloud and Angeal complain to me as it was them that he bothers the most for a fight. He didn't do it to Sephiroth and Genesis because First, he is not close with Genesis and Second, he is quite afraid of Sephiroth so he didn't bother them.

Now, a year later, I completely own every land in Sector Seven and the project Little Garden has finished. Right now Sector Seven slums are not slums anymore. Every corner of the street is filled with greenery and smells so good because at the side of the street is filled with flowers.
I was now well known here as the owner of the land and I've been rearranging the infrastructure of the place along with rebuilding all the buildings here to look more pleasing to the eyes.
Every former owner of a land is given an apartment to stay for a half price or if they are a store owner, I let them rent for a half price for three years and if they got money they can re-buying their store.
Thought it was more expensive than when I buy it, they love it as now our street is brimming with visitors. Then a landowner that has business in renting an Apartments. I let them manage my Apartment or Hotels(Love Hotel) and gave them a room for themselves to live in with quite a good salary.
Because of the beauty, our place become thrives with visitors and become a good dating spot. Because it was rare for a place to be filled with flowers in Midgar.
But, because of this. The Shinra has been sending the Turks to investigate us as they thought that I was an Ancient. Thought I don't care about it as I can destroy them easily now if I want it.
