章 9: There are Turks Here!
Rude had managed to escape the avalanche of trash caused by his reckless, fearless partner in crime. Unfortunately Reno ended up buried under some light trash causing Rude to yell out in worry.
"Reno!"
Rude starts digging into the pile that landed on the lanky red headed kid. After removing a few objects, the pile rattles and Reno bursts through with his arms raised up and a shit eating grin on his face.
"WOOHOO!" Reno shouts out laughing like a maniac. "Wow! That was a real riot! Let's do it again!"
Rude just stares at him blandly and shakes his head, "..."
...
I chuckle watching this scene.
"Their personality is on point. It's almost as if they are the real deal..." I say, but deep down there is a worrying feeling in my gut that tells me there is more to the story...
So I walk over with the friendliest smile I can muster to meet them while clapping to applaud their actions.
"Bravo! You have conquered the mighty pile trash." I cheer jokingly, "very impressive."
"Hey, shove off yo! I just got buried under a pile of trash." Reno shouts in his defense. "I swear a fucking diaper hit me in the face..."
When Reno finally turns to get a good look at my face he shuts up. His face darkens, cold sweat pours down his face, a look of absolute terror can be seen on his face. Rude is not looking any better.
"OF FUCK!!! IT'S CHIBI SEPHIROTH! KILL HIM!!!" Reno blurts out and dashes at me with Rude at his side.
Reno pulls out a large bat out of nowhere and tries to smash my head in. But I just slap it aside and tilt my head back to avoid Rude's fist.
With Reno attacking from the back and Rude attacking me with his fists from the front, I smirk as I close my eyes.
You see, I had recently awakened my Observation Haki after countless practices and experiments. With just me and Red, my practices have stagnated.
Reno and Rude have just now provided me and ample opportunity to improve my Observation Haki.
The two continue to assault me in utter failure for 15 minutes until they are tuckered out and panting on the ground covered in sweat.
With a smirk I asked, "Feeling better now?"
"Haah... Haah... Haah... Just... Let... Us... Kick your... Ass, please ? Fucking... kids body!" Reno responds catching his breath.
I chuckle and shake my head. Kneeling next to the two chibi turks I asked, "You two. You recognize me right? How is that possible?"
"... Yes." Rude answers after a lenthy silence.
"How could we... Not recognized the man who destroyed our world upon his defeat." Reno says looking at me with a glare, "dick move pal."
I take a minute to soak in what I just heard from Reno. It seems that the original Sephiroth ended up taking their world with him after he was defeated. That detail is not in my memories as both Sephiroth and the gamer who 100% the game and spinoffs. Alternate reality maybe?
"That... Can't be right! My memories of Sephiroth do not have those moments." I say in certainty. This causes Reno and Rude to look at me questioningly.
"Wait... What do you mean your memories as Sephiroth?" Reno asks in skepticism.
"..." Rude still listening in silence.
I look at them and answered, "While I do have Sephiroth's memories and experiences, his body and physique too without the corruption. My soul is of someone entirely different."
Rude silently contemplates my words and asked, "... You are not Sephiroth?"
I hesitate before shaking my head.
"In body and memory I guess I can be considered him, but in soul I am someone entirely different." I give my best answer. "I have my memories of my past life as a soon-to-be high school graduate with a love for gaming and manga/anime. But waking up in this world I found myself with this body and the original Sephiroth's memories and experiences were granted to me."
"Holy shit... This is deeper than we thought partner!" Reno says looking at Rude, " Some kid ended up jacking Sephiroth's body and skills!"
I cough at his wording while not opting to mention I am technically older than them, "I would not say jacking per say. An entirely rebuilt body without Jenova's influence corrupting it in mind and body. But technically... Yes."
Reno jumps up before yanking Rude to his feet.
"We gotta report this to the others!" Reno shouts out while dragging a helpless Rude and me behind him.
I look at Rude and asked, "Is he always like this?"
"You have no idea..." Rude answers.

SageGrimm To clarify something. Only the Turks will be brought into my story cause I like them.
Red isn't entirely Red either. He just happens to be a creature that resembles him.
All Turks... even a certain former Turk who could have been Sephiroth's daddy in another life. Plus the BC crew.
