Shadows of the Past- After the defeat of Jinn and the full activation of the shield around the Cetra homeworld, Cloud and his friends were ready to put Jenova behind them and move on with their lives. But soon they find out that is not as easy as they had hoped, as the visions Jinn showed them seem to come back to haunt them. It is just a coincidence, or had Jinn really given them a glimpse of what was to come, and if so, was that future inevitable? Or was there someone else working behind the scenes manipulating events to only make it seem so?

FFVII Internet Series Notes- Some personal observations about the Internet Series.
FFVII Internet Series Notes - June 18th, 2001

Final Fantasy VII Fanfiction
Balance of Power- A special treat for any Cid and/or Tifa fans out there. Jen and I got together and decided to write a story about out favorite characters. The story takes place two years after the events in the game and the world is now a much different place, and on the verge of war between the cities of Junon and Wutai. The other characters may be putting in appearences, but they will not have major parts. This story is not related to the Internet Series.

Shards- You know, I was looking around my page and I thought that since I am a Tifa fan, I should have at least one story just about her. So here it is. This story takes place right after Sephiroth destroys Nibelheim and almost kills Tifa. Awakening in Midgar, she finds herself in a very different world from the one she left behind. Dependent on total strangers, she must find a way not only to survive, but to piece together once more the broken shards of her life.

CONTENT WARNING This story has stronger language and more adult material then my usual writing. I would rate this story PG-13. Some of the content might not be suitable for younger teens.

I Want to Live- Yet another Aeris ressurection story, or is it? This story starts off in familiar territory but soon takes a rather (IMO) unexpected turn. This is not a happy story, there are no heros here, just humans.
I Want to Live - June 18th, 2001

The Date- My pitiful attempt at humor. Cloud accidently schedules a date with both Tifa and Aeris on the same night. When he bungles it, the men in blue step in.
The Date - June 18th, 2001

The Edge of Twilight- A sad story, written from Cloud's perspective, on what could happen when someone doesn't realize what they have until it's too late.
The Edge of Twilight - June 18th, 2001

The Great Mousse Hunt- Cloud needs his mousse, but it appears to be missing. Can he and the gang find some before it's too late?
The Great Mousse Hunt - June 18th, 2001

Guardian Angel- A very weird short story I wrote just on the spur of the moment. Not even a story, really, more like a little self indulging ramble, I guess. Well, you'll just have to make up your own mind about it, I suppose. Tifa wants some answers, and a mysterious stranger offers to provide them.
