After the time spent in the golden saucer as a holiday Zack had decided to try and train up massively, He now knew that Seprinoth and maybe others just like him had also been revived, And also with what he saw at the chocobo race's cloud may be under a darker influence.
With all the knowledge of what had happened to himself and cloud in the past he had decided to try and unlock some of the jenoven power within himself however he knew it would be dangerous to do so, So he figured that the more secluded the better it would be.
After camping in this peaceful area Zack headed out to the large lake he swam out into the middle, he had spent the few days of peace to try and ready himself for what was to come now in the middle he started to focus and his most traumatic memories, Seipiroth could fly Zack wanted something to at least match or cope with that power.
As his past replayed in his own mind he bean to hear her, Calling to him calling him her son pulling him him and trying to lure him to the darker side, Screaming inside his mind trying to tear it asunder, As this went on Zack's body began to rise floating just above the water and even cleared it bye a few meters.
However it was to much rage began to flow more freely the water began to flow up surrounding him his eyes twisting and turning into catlike eyes,he felt his own mind slipping away from him with the last part of his own energy he gave a final push throwing his own body out of sinc and out of the lake itself, And slamming into a wall.
He felt like moving but it was to much as he slipped away falling asleep, He awoke a few hours later cold and still sore he moved slowly lighting a fire and took in the warmth contemplating on the days events.

((It was good. Shush! lol.)
Sephiroth had finally made it...after the conflict at Cosmo Canyon and a little earlier at Nibelheim, he had finally reached that retched city of the Ancients. Raising his wing he slowly drifted down from the heavens and landed in a clearing of the sleeping forest...the snow-white tree's glowing as they had done many years ago. Taking a few steps forward, Sephiroth folded his wing onto his back, clicking his neck slightly to ease the tension of his flight over here.
"Hmm?" the one-winged angel stopped dead in his tracks, gazing forwards and into the distance...he could make out a trail of smoke...a fire? Here? Impossible...well...not unless....
"Someone is here." he muttered, narrowing his eyes as if expecting the worst. He continued onwards and into the city...and there, besides the lake Cloud laid Aerith to rest in, was that reven-haired beast beside a fireplace. Zack, that SOLDIER from 1st class. The raven-haired beast itself.
"Never thought I'd see you here." Sephrioth said in a cold tone, keeping his distance.
"Zack."

Zack smiled as the old familiar voice began to talk he stared slowly at Seipinoth looking at him up and down while making mantel note's as well as giving of a little chuckle.
"Well well well if it isn't the legendary Solder ha, Yeah right well you may have not expected me to be here my old friend, But i am however i am quite surprised to see you though, Oh i see your missing a certain weapon are you not? , Shameful Sepinoth well sorry but it is kinda funny don't you think"
Zack chuckled a little louder and began to stretch as he got up of the ground, Knocking of some dust that had gather on his uniform Zack stared right at Seipinothas his hand reached next to him drawing forth a hard edge blade.
"You know i lost my blade you know the one, Yeah I'm sure you do the one that wounded you so badly in the reactor, it was a great blade wasn't it only a few managed to wound you and my mission is to resurrect it's abilities, But even though i lost it i found a replacement its not the best but it will do for now"
"So tell me which seipinoth is in front of me the trusty battle brother, Or Mothe...........i mean jenovas pawn"
As he almost spoke the word mother a deep pang wept from within him was he changing to just like seipinoth was he deemed to fall from Grace and kill all he knew and loved, a deep regret began to take hold slowly, Realizing this Zack shook his head rethinking what he was doing he had to focus at the task at hand he wouldn't do what the betrayer had done never.

Sephiroth folded his arms and shook his head as Zack made a joke out of his lost weapon.
"It's not funny. It's theft." he said in a bitter tone, before chuckling under his breath. Actually...it was quite funny, whoever stole it had a deathwish...and the last person he saw who KNEW where it was, was that darn red-headed Turk...who quite easily escaped him twice already.
"That blade of yours was unique...just like Masamune...very few blades are made to deal such substantial amounts of damage. I beleive a certain blonde had yours last...but I don't know what he's doing with it." Sephrioth began.
"....maybe...he's killing people with it...with the whole idea of him going crazy, that is." he chuckled again, before unfolding his arms. His small smirk soon faded into a bitter cold expression...one of confusion and doubt...a face he was well known to display just before the Nibelheim inccident...you know, involving him going mad and jumping into the reactor with Jenova's severed head? Yeah, THAT look.
"Mother...I haven't heard her voice for a very long time.....how is it everyone else can hear her calls...Kadaj, Cloud...." Sephrioth rubbed his head.
"And now...you too?"

"You wonder why you cant here her do you well thats amuseing isnt it, Here greatest son lost from here heard well it could be as simple as this, Ever thought the greatest son is the greatest failure every task you have done has faild in one way or anouther hasnt it maybe she is seeking a new chosen champion somone else to replace you, How doe's it feel sepinoth tell me how does it feel to have lost everything, or tell me this can you feel anything, Was it worth it gaining great power to lose the real you."
"And as for my weapon i already have it the only problem is i search for a weaponmaster to repare it sinse it is rather mostly a wreak"
Zack raised his hand to his head scraching it a few times.
"And as for cloud you should leave him be you have greater worries than him now i wonder if she will replace you and if so who. Maybe an unknown or Kadaj or his brothers or maybe someone more closer, Can i ask you somthing, Was it worth it? Was it worth loseing everything you had to end up in this position at this stage of your life?

Sephiroth felt it in his heart...the anger...the rage. The neglect.
"Shut up, Zack." he growled "I can't hear her...but that doesn't mean she'll replace me!" He then heard Zack ask him about if it was all worth it...for the second time...
"I have no regrets in what I chose to do with my life. And as for Cloud...he put it upon himself to steal half my materia and run like the coward he is. That little wretch certainly has lost his mind, I have no idea what he was thinking about when he impaled himself with the black materia....but as soon as I see his face, I'll kill him. And take back what is rightfully mine." Sephiroth explained. Cloud was known to be an odd ball...someone who was unpredictable, wreckless, mentally weak and mindless...almost like a lost child. But then again, was Sephiroth any different? He never knew who his real parents where, or where he really came from...he didn't even understand how he came to be other than what he read in the Nibelheim mansion those many years ago. Then he thought back....back to that one time and moment. Folding his arms, the one-winged angel entered deep thought and muttered to himself...almost forgetting about Zack.
"...a replacement?" Sephiroth thought. It was starting to make sense...Cloud going crazy and stealing half the black materia...Kadaj's return and the loss of contact with Mother Jenova. Was she really discarding him?
"...but...why? Why now?" he thought, only just regaining his senses. Turning his gaze back to Zack, Sephiroth lowered his arms and sighed.
"Was it worth it....to be honest...I don't know. And I don't really care, either."

Zack watched and took in Seipinoth words while smiling while also tapping his foot steadily.
"Interesting Seipinoth very interesting, have a look at yourself think of what you just said first you started of in anger, Then doubt, And at the end you show concern about being replaced maybe you have lost the link to her, to me you are acting just like you did before the reactors events, Just now you showed emotions which normally you wouldn't do"
"And seipinoth you seem to have forgotten about me you see I'm special just like you, Kadaj and his brothers have no cells of jenova, And cloud well he only absorbed half of her cells unlike me i took the full dosage every single cell, Who knows maybe i will replace you now that would be rather ironic wouldn't it now."
"Well not for me anyway however Sepinoth tell me have you heard of something called the second coming i saw an old folder when i was in shinra and thought nothing of it until recently i heard something within me not mother something different not one or even two but a chorus of voices as if there were more children of the jenovien parasite"

"I'v sensed many things recently, Zack...and as for my emotions, I shun the thought of still having any." Sephiroth growled, folding his arms again and glancing at his feet.
"Mother would never choose you. You always had your own goal...your own free will...never letting anyone push you around. So go ahead and lie to yourself, live a lie like Cloud is living right now." he began, glancing up at Zack again before narrowing his eyes.
"If mother really has abandoned me to my own free will, then I know what I have to do...destroy anything that crosses my path until I reach my goal. Re-contact with her." Sephiroth finished. He then heard Zack mention of 'more children containing Jenovian infestation'.
"...even if there are others, I have no control over them. The only 'puppet' I have fully working right now is Kadaj, Cloud has cut his strings and is even trying to sew them to me...but I won't fall for his tricks...." Sephiroth growled, before changing his standing posture into an offensive stance...hand-to-hand combat based stance.
"...and I won't fall for yours either. Give me the white materia."

"Well thanks for the vote of confidence the seipinoth yeah your right she wouldn't want me to free spirited arent i unlike you, Mommy's little boy, Who knows i wonder if daddy will give you more hugs, Well you are in denial arent you not showing any emotions are you, If you think that your greatly mistaken.
Zack watched as sepinoth changed into his stance, And demanded the White matiria.
"My my my you are forward thought you would at least buy me a drink, but sorry don't have it anymore, And as for your stance you want to fight go ahead."
Zack drew the hard edge from his back and thew it into the wall so it would embed itself, Smiling at sepinoth he moved into a defensive stance his leather gloves making a low squeaking sound as he closed them tightly.
"Truth be told i haven't done this for a long time but i will tell you this Sepinoth it will not be as easy as last time, Its a shame you think i am playing tricks on you, why would i i came here to be alone yet you came to me are you the one playing tricks then?"

"Heh. The last time I bought you a drink was after the Wutai War...and if I recall, you still owe me one." Sephiroth chuckled, before shaking his head to rid himself of those emotions and memories. Those very memories that made him human.
"NO! You're the one playing tricks on me! If you don't have the white materia, then why are you here!?" Sephiroth growled, before charging in Zack's direction. Leaping into the air and prepairing a spin-kick to the raven-haired creature.

Zack chuckled a while as seipinoth showed his old self again.
"So you still have a soft spot after all do you rather funney your split personalitey isnt it."
"And i am here to allow me to become stronger without risking anyone i love"
Zack watched as seipinoth leaping and ready an attack bringing up his sword in front of himself to defend.

Sephiroth, instead of kicking Zack, wound up being guarded against by the raven-haired beasts sowrd. Jumping backwards, flipping once in the air to dodge any possible attacks thrown at him, Sephiroth landed a few feet back from Zack...still facing the raven-haired male.
"...risking anyone you...love? Hmph. And who might that be again? A certain flower girl? I beleive I impaled her some time ago..." Sephiroth began, almost smugly, before remembering something else in his head. Something about his childhood, no, it was his teenage years.
"...is she alright now?" Sephiroth asked in a worried tone, before shaking his head and getting into a defensive stance again. Snarling anngrily.
"Why are my retched memories conflicting!? Are you trying to toy with me, Zack!?"

"IS she alright...........to tell you the truth i do not know myself after being revived i havent seen her, In fact i havent really seen anyone i knew back in the old days, not even my parents who probely think i am still dead maybe thats for the best,
But seipinoth why would i toy with you you know who i am i dont do that at all im just trying to find out who you really are and now i have seen you i cannot find the answear that quetion since you yourself have no clue, Your mother has clouded your mind this freedom you have from her, this is your chance this is your chance to find out who you are or at least what you are"

Sephiroth eased his tension, was everything Zack said really true? Was the only thing between Sephiroth and truth his own judgemental conflict? Or an illusion, caused by 'mother'? He shook his head lightly to rid himself of the though, but it kept comming back to him...over and over again. Why was he standing here? Why had mother rejected him? Why...why are his past memories returning, conflicting within his mind?
"...I don't know who I am...?" Sephiroth questioned, rubbing his forehead to make better sense of what Zack just told him. Didn't know who he was as in, didn't know his heritage...or didn't know who he was in terms of amnesia? The latter was irrelivant, he just wanted to find more explinations to Zacks' statement.
"Let me ask you something, Zack. Do you know who YOU are?" Sephiroth questioned, glancing from around his hand, which was still easing the oncomming migrain from the constant thinking he was doing.

Zacks tension relaxed as Seipinoth began to change again back to a calmer persona,
"So you ask who i am then yes i know who i am thats what makes me differnt i earned my power i have trained and grew to become more like you, well that is what i was then of course my own power was nothing they had to do testing on me but thoughout it all i remberd who i was what my morals were. But i sufferd real death my you with that and the fact i couldent be returnd to the earth gave me years to think of who i am but tell me this did my freindship mean anything to you? Think back to when you struke me down with your blade wounding me badly how doe's that make you feel now?"
