On Silver Wings – Chapter 9 snippet
FIRST BLOOD – dream sequence Cloud awoke from blissfully dreamless sleep to find himself slouched against the smooth mahogany of Hollcomb’s desk, his head pillowed against his arms. He blinked his eyes slowly as they adjusted to the gloom; he couldn’t remember turning the lights off but the office was lit only from the slight [...]
On Silver Wings – chapter 8
EXPLANATIONS Hearing the slight edge of panic in Sephiroth’s usually controlled tenor had shaken him. Here was the man he’d both feared and adulated as a teen, then later despised and chased, obviously human and more than slightly overwhelmed with their current situation. Even with Zack’s reassuring presence at his side, seeing the man again, [...]
The Eagle and the Wren – Chapter 1
ROAD TO DAMASCUS The road stretched on in front of the merchant caravan; to Jehane, unused to such travel, it felt endless, bordered left and right by lifeless desert, seemingly the same stretch of land for miles and miles. There was, at that time, plenty of opportunity for Jehane to regret, and remember. Although the [...]

On Silver Wings – chapter 7
AWAKENING “Get your ass down to the labs, Reeve. Sephiroth’s awake and I could really use some help here.” “He’s what?!” “Awake, Reeve.

On Silver Wings – Chapter 6
TROUBLED PAST Cloud had kept a close eye on Tifa as he’d explained about his own motivation for bringing Sephiroth back and had seen a look of guilt flash on her face as he’d mentioned the labs. He knew she had a hard time trying to forget Hojo had ever had his hands on him, [...]
On Silver Wings Update
Am currently waiting for my betas to finish going through chapter 5 before officially declaring it posted, here and on FF.net. I find it a little hard to really concentrate on the next one when I know that I’ll have to go back and edit through an older chapter. Bleh. I’m thinking of posting Snippets [...]
On Silver Wings – Chapter 5
MEMORIES He knew something had gone wrong before he’d ever even reached the big oak doors that led to the main area of the sectioned-off wing. The smell alone brought back painful memories of his hometown burning, a stench of cooked flesh and ash he knew he could never forget. The area around the doors [...]
On Silver Wings chapter 5 on the way
Oh my. I’m on a roll, it seems. I stay away from this for a few weeks, then WHAM, I can’t stop typing. I’ve got a detailed plan and scene-by-scene synopsis written for the next four chapters, so I should now be a little faster on the updates.
On Silver Wings – Chapter 4
HOJO’S LEGACY She’d been so sure she would catch up with Zack, she and Yuffie hadn’t even given any thought as to how they would confront him when they finally reached him. Following the black-haired man hadn’t been easy, either. He knew the Neo-ShinRa building like the back of his hand, and a small, nagging [...]
