Notes: I was mauled with this rather unexpectedly. Expect random updates when art bunnies poke me.
This wasn’t where he’d been a beat ago. A beat ago perspective had been changed from an all encompassing everything… to being caught inside an unfamiliar skin. He wasn’t pleased. Sensing a sleeper, someone there who would explain what had just occurred, he turned his attention to it.
The sleeper had been slowly roused, his personality inspected as it came to the fore, and his capacity for destruction accepted and gloried in. Guilt was shoved aside, scorned as the two beings became one. There was no place for grieving, there was merely opportunity and pack, the young one that smelled of him, and an infant girl, new, that were within his reach. It had taken years to reach this point, but he did not age, and thus time was nothing to him.
That did not mean that captivity would be accepted beyond the most minimal of means. Fool the man for daring to try to cage him, to try to control him. He killed him before threat and ingenuity could drag forth his truer shape, something that this foolish creature had no right to. His play-land was destroyed in like fashion, and he took the young ones with him from the rubble. The adults were unimportant to him, fellow experiments or no, and were dealt with in permanent fashion.
He made sure everything was destroyed, and only then reminded himself of who, as well as what, he was. There was that flicker of regret again, but it was quickly quashed. Revenge was better. Choosing an enemy was far simpler, and it took very little to decide where they should go. Wutai was, after all, one of the last countries to still resist their enemy, and that meant that they needed a champion.
In time, Vincent, Aeris, and Sephiroth would make the name Valentine a nightmare to Shinra, because Shinra could not defeat their creations quite so easily with the one little mistake in planning that led to Chaos being awake first.
