Melodies Of Life || Change those flowing tears into shining courage, life goes on

Characters: Anyone who's been in the game
Where: Aqures Ixen
When: August 3rd
Summary: A story is over, many others are about to begin. Friends may reunite and rejoice together, friends may part and say farewell to each over forever. But even if you should leave your friends behind, your voice shall never forget their melodies.


Following the battle against Kalki, the sacrifice of old friends and the second destruction of Aqures Tosf, Palitutu cast all Heroes of Light into the Rift, each of them finding themselves in an all too familiar void. And yet... Soon the void vanished, as it had once before. This time it was all too clear none of this had been a dream. Upon coming to their senses, the Heroes of Light will find themselves on the outskirts of Aqures Ixen. Music and laughter can be heard coming from the city.

Is there a celebration in the city? Shouldn't it be filled with corrupted Heroes of Light and on the brink of destruction? Before they can do anything about these questions, the Heroes of Light are submerged by a wave of fluffy white balls of fur and fluff- the Moogles who helped them for all these years and are now overjoyed to see they are safe and sound. As they once did before, the Moogles will answer all of their questions, but also drag them into the city. A celebration is indeed taking place and why, it appears they are the reason the celebration is happening. The music is joyous, the people are happy and all appears to be for the best.

Upon reaching the third district, they will see familiar faces. Cid, Wedge, Biggs, Parajapati, Mograma, O'aka and many other friends they made along the way. They will all clap for them before congratulating them and taking part in the festivities. There are more familiar faces, however. Where once stood the Crystal of Fire is now a statue depicting four Heroes of Light: Sephiroth, Minato, Tears and Sayaka, all four of them brandishing their crystal and weapons in a heroic posture.

Whilst many might be sad and mourn them, perhaps this is also an occasion to celebrate what they were in life and carry the memory of their deeds into your own life. Melodies of life, come circle round and grow deep in our hearts, as long as we remember.

[Reno could hear it in Rufus' voice, even if it was more subtle and diminished. One just didn't make a Shinra disappointed, after all. It wasn't healthy. Rufus could easily order him home. And then...]

[What? Would Reno actually listen? Obey him? So much had changed... But if it came down to it, Reno knew he would still feel compelled to do so. At least a little. But so far, Rufus hadn't done that.]


I know.

[Knowing that only made it harder to leave them.]

I know ya don't leave the Turks except in a body-bag... but I don't think they ever considered weird alternate universes.

Alternate universe or not, you hold a position in ShinRa and all the expectations that follow it.

[Rufus expects that loyalty to come through, no matter what. After all, the Turks stood by him when meteor hit, when his company fell. To think that he might even lose one of the four individuals...

...]


Are you stating right now, you'll turn your back on us? Think carefully, Reno.

[Reno grimaced. The decision was painful as it was. When Rufus put it that way, it was almost impossible. But Rufus wasn't wrong -- Reno had made a prior commitment. His life belonged to Shinra. But his heart... didn't anymore.]

[Reno had to decide. He had to choose. He hated it.]


... I won't leave 'im. Please don't order me to.

[Reno didn't usually say "please," not even to Rufus Shinra.]

[He stares at Reno in complete silence, his eyes sharp and critical. It's not a look he uses too often anymore, but Reno probably has seen it before-- mostly when he's calculating his next move against an opponent. It almost like he's waiting to see if Reno will back down at all or flinch but after a minute of staring, he finally turns his eyes away.]

...A Turk is only good when he's fully dedicated to his job. I can't afford to have one whose heart is somewhere else now.
