018 | REUNION - this has been too long coming [Action]
[Private/]
He knew that they were still there. His instincts told him so. That was good.
The broken expanse of the ShinRa manor just a few feet below the soles of his boots, Sephiroth allowed himself the pleasure to hover there for a moment to take in the sights from up here of the town that he'd previously destroyed - he hadn't personally ever been back here. The air itself still smelt of the absolute betrayal he had felt on that fateful mission so many years ago but that empowering feeling of revelation sweetened the bitter taste at the back of his throat. It crossed Sephiroth's mind briefly that he should torch the town yet again in an attempt to wipe it's existence from the Planet entirely but there were more important thoughts which plagued his mind now.
Mother would have wanted us to meet again here. This shall be the starting line of our great vengeance. Once important memories have been brought back into balance there will be no limit to what we can achieve.
These thoughts were left open to the Remnants who he knew resided in the building below. Sephiroth willed himself downwards and through the great hole in the celing which laid bare the foyer of the ShinRa manor to the elements. Once he had landed safely on the battered, rubble-strewn floor he stood slowly in order to take in every detail. The majority of the grand staircases had fallen away; Sephiroth noted that there had been a great battle here and wondered what the story there had been. He might have to make it his business to find out.
In a flurry of silver and black leather Sephiroth leaped onto the balcony of the second floor and turned to face the corridor he remembered so clearly having trodden determinedly down before. A memory of how it had looked, newer but still dusty flashed behind his physical vision. It was faded into the current flawlessly, as if there was no seam between the past and present. Spiders webs seemed to have held this part of the house together, even if the door behind the bookcase seemed as if it would not ever be able to close again.
The same room, same bookcase, even the same books stacked on the nearby desk. Sephiroth mused and smiled to himself, clearly not a great many people had been in here at all in recent years. It felt warm, with these memories but almost foreign and indescribable; Sephiroth had not ever really had a home. He slipped past the threshold of the door down into the not-secret stairwell but grew impatient after the first couple of steps down. He launched himself into the middle of the cavern without a care to slow his descent. He plunged into the darkness of the basement and only forced control over the fall a few seconds before impact on the bottom. Once his feet touched the damp, cold floor his black wing seemed to erupt in a large plume of black feathers.
