When the three SOLDIER Firsts walked into the ShinRa lobby, they hadn't expected to see a suspiciously dressed man wheel a young woman in their direction.
And Genesis and Angeal certainly didn't expect the General to rush over to the woman, bend down and peck her cheek, either.
Sephiroth called his two Commanders over and introduced them to the two strangers, one of whom, to the Commanders' ashtonishment, the General called "mother," of all things. She looked to be in her late twenties at most! They had originally thought her to be an unknown lover, but not the man's mother.
The woman, "Lucrecia," she called herself, was rather pleasant. When they looked between her and Sephiroth, they could see the faint resemblance. She thanked them for keeping her boy company, and for "taking care of him." She then introduced the silent man behind her.
He was called "Vincent" and was apparently Sephiroth's father. Looking past his young visage, the two Commanders could definitely see the resemblance, especially with the man's silent demeanor.
The two Firsts were contemplating the other two's strangely young appearance when suddenly, the conversation turned on Sephiroth when Lucrecia mentioned a woman named "Cloud," who had apparently caught the General's attention. Surprised, Angeal and Genesis listened. They had never heard such a thing and had been fairly certain the General was asexual.
They were surprised to find out that the woman had bested Sephiroth in combat several times. And had thrown him into a vat of mako when the General "threw a tantrum." The two figured this had happened during childhood, for the man was too composed to have thrown a fit at his age. Genesis couldn't get the image of the General throwing a tantrum out of his head, and had to muffle his laughter to hear the rest of the one-sided conversation-turned-lecture, as Lucrecia had begun to go on about how her son was going about his "courtship" the wrong way.
The two then found out that Sephiroth, to Angeal's astonishment and Genesis' amusement, had made a hobby of stalking the woman and "trolling on her" whenever he had the chance.
And then the two thought of the times when the Turks had reportedly started to tail the General on his missions, nearly always bringing the man back with his clothes slashed and dripping of mako. The two had begun to wonder why the General had been taking longer than usual to complete his missions. Apparently this Cloud woman was the cause of it all.
Genesis then decided that he just had to meet her.
Okay, so in this one, Lucrecia (yes, she's in a wheelchair here) remembers and Sephiroth has acknowledged her as his mother. Vincent is here, taking up his duty as her bodyguard again. The two have had their past lives to get over everything, so now they're back together again.
Lucy's in a wheelchair because she's gotten out of the mako crystal and just recovered from mako poisoning/addiction from all the time she spent trapped in mako. She can't use her legs yet since her body's been immobile for years, so she's in a wheelchair.
