Kefka pressed a button on a computer he imagined in the Lifestream. Suddenly, a loud rumbling was audible.

 "Tee hee! I LOVE destruction!" Kefka was watching what was happening aboveground on a viewscreen.

 "Sir!" Mike, former SOLDIER 1st Class, ran into Heidegger's office. "Something is happening around the Old Midgar area! The Richter Scale is up to 4.5!"

 "Hmm... onscreen..." Heidegger turned his chair to the viewscreen. His jaw dropped at what he saw. "Mary, mother!" Midgar was shaking up, and parts eerily floated into the air. Giant struts of land jutted out, and the destroyed Midgar was all in pieces. Suddenly, a tremor shook Heidegger's office.

 "What the hell was that?" Heidegger went to the window and
found people flooding the streets of NeoMidgar. Then, the streets
broke up! Heidegger took a gasp and backpedaled.

 "What's going on?"

 "I believe I can answer that question." Out popped a man.

 "Who're you?"

 "The one and only! Mwha ha ha!" Kefka jumped out and grinned. "It'll be so NICE to have a German slave like you! (Note: I am not against any country or anything, nor is it that Heidegger being German is true. I just want it to be) Tee hee!" Kefka bound Heidegger to his chair, and produced a small device. "Watch your little NeoMidgar now!!" Small tremors broke up the streets. Buildings began to crash, fire erupted, and the citizens screamed.

 "Look!" A cloud of debris floated towards NeoMidgar. In a few moments, NeoMidgar had lost all of what appeared to be a city. Citizens watched in shock when the cloud faded away. A giant tower was in place of NeoMidgar! It was taller than anything they had seen before. What appeared to be a cannon emerged from it.

 "Whee hee! Isn't it so FUN to be home?" Kefka walked the halls of his enormous tower, reborn like the phoenix and the fire. He walked into his main chamber. "Now that's how I like it!" The main chamber was Heidegger's office, and Heidegger just sat in his chair, scared.

 "So, slave, what is our first bidding? Ah yes... MAGITEK INFUSIONS!!!" Kefka forgot that espers had perished.

 "Umm... excuse me... there is no such thing as magitek..."

 "Ah yes.. need be reminded again... so tell me.. you are the head of a major corporation, how do you infuse people with magic?" Kefka asked.

 "Well, we have an untested method of materia power infusion..."

 "Explain!" Kefka cut him off, and Heidegger proceeded again.

 "As I was saying, you can take someone who is carrying Jenova cells and infuse materia power into them... we can do it, it's just never been done," Heidegger explained.

 "Can you FIND anyone who is carrying Jenova?"

 "Yes, right with this little computer..." Heidegger took out a palmtop computer and looked it up. "Two do... Cloud and Nathan Strife... 29 and 7 years old, respectively."

 "Remember, Cloud's mine!" Sephiroth Red's voice boomed into Kefka's mind. Kefka acknowledged.

 "Get me that Nate kid..." Kefka chortled a maniacal laugh as Heidegger obeyed.

 "Oh my god!" Reno was outside, his jaw dropped.

 "What's wrong?" Elena came out and asked.

 "That!" Reno pointed towards Kefka's tower. Elena's jaw dropped too.

 "How did it get there?"

 "Said it just appeared on the news... some wacko is up there, and is gonna take over the world for revenge..." Reno shuddered and walked inside. Elena just stared.

 "Mom?" Ramza came out and tugged at Elena's pant leg.

 "Yeah, Hon?"

 "What's that?"

 "Some giant tower... it just appeared, they say... Come on, you gotta get off to school..." Elena rushed Ramza inside, and she groaned.

 "Do I hafta?"

 "YES, you have to go to school..." Elena got her all ready to go, and she went out the door to the People's Public School.

 Nate met Ramza on the outside of school.

 "Hey, Ramza! Grandpa Harding is coming today!"

 "How do you know?"

 "Mr. Harding told me!"

 "Yeah, right!" Ramza and Nate walked into school.

 "Hey kids! We have a few special guests today! They are gonna teach us some history! You can come in now!" Mr. Harding waved at the door, and a few people walked in. Nate sat back in his chair.

 "Meet Mr. And Mrs. Strife, Mr. Valentine, and Mr. Highwind!" Everyone curtly said hello.

 "Hey kids!" Cid laughed, and coughed. He took out a cigarette, but Cloud stopped him. Cid needed no more to be asked of him.

 "Before most of you little kids were born, the world faced a great crisis... And evil, evil man tried to become... in essence... God. He summoned a Meteor to gather energy for him... do any of you know who I am talking about?" Tifa finished talking, and Nate's hand immediately shot up.

 "SOMEONE besides Nate," Mr. Harding said. Nobody else's hand went up, so he sighed and called on Nate.

 "Sephiroth! He did a lot of bad things! Like..."

 "Okay, Nate, that's enough," Cloud cut him off, and Nate slumped back in his chair.

 "As we were saying, the world was in a crisis! The meteor was going to strike at any minute! Then, these brave people came, destroyed Sephiroth, and released holy! Holy eradicated meteor and all the evils of the world. Take a bow!" The kids clapped, and they smiled. A knock was heard on the door.

 "Come in!" Mr. Harding called. In walked Dana, the school nurse.

 "John? Can I see Nathan for a minute?" Nate resented being called that name.

 "Sure! Go right ahead!" Nate walked out the door, and the nurse shut it. A few moments later, a scream was heard.

 "Help! Help!"

 "If I didn't know any better I'd say that was..." Vincent began.

 "NATE!" Cloud and Tifa shouted. The group ran out the door, and Mr. Harding was calming down the kids, but to no avail. They ran out the door and watched what happened.

 "Mwha ha ha! Don't worry! He'll be safe with me! Tee hee hee!" Vincent took out his gun, and attempted to shoot the man, but someone else beat him to it. The man's guard shot Vincent inhis metal claw where it met the flesh. Vincent yelled in pain and anger. The angry scream soon came to a laugh, as Vincent's metal turned to muscle. Cid took action and turned the kids around, but it was too late. They saw the beginning stages of a Chaos transformation.

 Vincent slashed at the guard and killed him. However, in the midst, the man had escaped.

 "Damn!" Cid cursed, and then remembered there was young children around.

 "Where do you think they were taking Nate?" Tifa asked.

 "Don't know.. that man had a creepy edge to him..." Cloud replied. He shuddered, and Tifa looked depressed.

 "I can't believe it... our kid..."

 "Of course you can believe it... you saw it with your own eyes..." A voice came into Tifa's mind.

 "Go away! Who are you?" She replied mentally.

 "You'll soon find out... nya ha ha!" Tifa felt something familiar about that laugh, but couldn't put her finger on it.

 "HEY! They took a chopper out of here! Let's follow 'em in the Highwind!" The others nodded, and ran off to the airship.

 "There!" Tifa pointed and spotted the chopper in question. Cid pumped the gas and followed the chopper. It arrived at a giant tower. Cid's cigarette fell out of his mouth at the amazement of the size of the tower. The Highwind was merely a speck in the sky. The chopper suddenly vanished.

 "Where did it go?" Cloud asked, and Cid shook his head.

 "It disappeared," The others suddenly heard a noise.

 "Over there!" Tifa said, and they ran towards it. They found, in the flight room, a young girl.

 "Ramza! What are you doing here? Your parents will be worried sick!" Tifa said. Ramza was crying.

 "I followed you when you left... I'm sorry... I was so mean to Nate! Waah!" Tifa went over and tried to calm her down.  "I better get her home," Cid told Cloud, and he nodded his head.
