(Y/n)'s POV
All of us started got out of the elevator to get to other place or lab, "Hell is this place?" Barret asked out loud to everyone. All of us were quiet before Red started talking to Barret, "Hojo's treasure. Shrina's dark secret." Red said to Barret. Everyone was walking to the railing to see a machine in the distances before Barret started talking, "What I wouldn't give to burn it all down...but we need to get to the roof." Barret said to everyone. Me and Cloud looked at each other before we started running on the platforms before we got close to the bridge.
The platform bridge was showing all of us a machine that has something inside in there. Lukas was holding my hand before Barret started talking to everyone, "What is that...?" Barret asked everyone in a confused tone. Aerith started talking to us, "Jenova." Aerith said to all of us. My head started to hurt again, I noticed Cloud was having the same pain as I was. I started to see some images before I looked up to see Sephiroth was there before he started talking to the person inside of the machine tube, "Mother... Together we will reclaim our world." Sephiroth said to the person that is inside of the tube. My image switch to see Tifa was crying for her dad that got killed by Sephiroth, "I'm sick of this! I'm sick of all of this!" Tifa yelled out in frustration.
My image was changed to see Jake was holding onto Lukas when he was 10 years old back then, but I noticed Jake was looking up before he started talking to him, "Lukas, don't worry if our middle sister and Cloud can help us then we will be okay. We are not going to end up like our parents and our older sister. I promise." Jake said to Lukas. Jake pick up Lukas body before he carried him in bridal style and he took off quick to not see Tifa.
The image is now gone before I feel two hands on my waist and my shoulder, "Cloud? (Y/n)?" Tifa and Lukas call out our names. I felt my head hurt so much that I feel Tifa's hand were removing from my shoulder but I feel Lukas hand was tightly holding my hand real tight before I move my head up. I moved Lukas hand to make him let my hand go before pushing him back lightly towards the others. Me and Cloud started walking slowly towards to Sephiroth, "Tell us. Is it really you?" Cloud asked Sephiroth.
Once Cloud said that our heads started to hurt again but with a lot of pain. I grabbed my head with both of my hands but I kept walking, so was Cloud. We were in pain so much that Sephiroth was talking to us, "Don't deny me." Sephiroth said to us. Me and Cloud started limping a bit before Sephiroth started talking to us again, "Embrace me." Sephiroth said that to us. Once Sephiroth said that to us, Cloud got really pissed and he screamed with rage in him before he grabbed his sword and started screaming to attack Sephiroth. I was ready to get my weapon out but that's when I felt my arm being grabbed up before I was now looking at Cloud to see him coming towards to me and Sephiroth, "Cloud!" Aerith yelled out to Cloud.
Lukas was looking at me with fear in his eyes before he started running towards to us with the others behind him. Cloud was getting closed to us but before Cloud could grab my hand. Sephiroth used his weapon to get a good slash at the platform bridge but that didn't stop Cloud from trying to help me and get Sephiroth. Cloud jumped up and tried to hit Sephiroth with his sword but Sephiroth deflect it with his katana but he was not letting my hand go, "A touching reunion." Sephiroth said to us before he looks at me before he moves his arm to the railing before I see a smirk on his face before I feel his hand started to let me go slowly. I started to fall down because Sephiroth let my hand go and I was now falling down.
Cloud was pushed back from Sephiroth's katana before I see him falling down as well. I felt arms were wrapped around me in a protective way and pulled me closed to their chest before I looked up to see Cloud was the one that was holding me closed to him. Cloud was holding the back of my head before I feel his arm was wrapped around me. I didn't feel much of the hard impact from the fall, I hear Cloud started to groan from this before I see his eyes were looking at me before he moved his hand away from the back of my head before looking down at my stomach, "You okay?" Cloud asked me in a worry tone in his voice. I looked at Cloud before nodding my head to him before telling him, "Yes, thank you Cloud." I said to Cloud with a small smile on my face.
