I'm aliveeee! I'm really sorry I haven't been active. Like everyone, I've gotten the pandemic of school work and have been busy. And still am. But I found time to work on this video and actually finish it! Yay! I'm hoping to be more active from now on, but I hope you enjoy!

I wanted to see if I could get the story across without so many words. (However, if you have any questions, Ill take them as they come)

Anyways, this video revolves around Cloud remembering his two best friends, who he both lost. The only "present" time is the beginning and the end. :]

Intro:
For as long as Cloud could remember, he was with Zack and Aerith. They were friends since their early teens, and before that, Cloud couldn't remember a thing. He couldn't remember if he had any family or where he came from. All he remembered was that his name was Roxas. The three decided together to change their names, as a symbol of starting anew. The names Roxas, Sora and Kairi were forgotten after that day. Aerith and Zack made it seem that Cloud belonged with them. They were friends, and the closest thing Cloud had to family.
---

Cloud walked into the church, keeping his eyes on the floor. He wasn't expecting anything new to happen today, he only planned on checking Aerith's flowers and the Buster Sword. But the sound of laughter filled his ears, so he looked up and saw them. They turned to him, like they were really there and he was really here. Aerith smiled politely and one would think he'd be frightened at seeing two ghosts from his childhood. But he wasn't, he was accepting and found himself pulled into the past.

Notes&Ramblings:

At twenty, Zack was taken.
At twenty-one, Aerith was taken.
At twenty-three, Cloud is still here.

Roxas=Cloud
Sora=Zack
Kairi=Aerith

I tried to combine the Kingdom Hearts world and Final Fantasy world, which I found pretty cool to play with. And, I kind of went for an open-ended ending. :] I had too much fun with this one, I'm thinking I might make a part two.

"HOW YOU SUPPOSE TO LOOK AFTUH YO FAMILY IF YOU CAN'T EVEN LOOK AFTER YOSELF?!" haha. Marlene's a trip. Thanks to her and Kayla (EternallyxJoy), I was able to finish the last part of the video. :] Kayla was nice enough to preview it and give me some feedback. And Marlene just popped up randomly when I was looking for that Cloud clip. XD

If you saw Jennifer's Body... you may laugh at me. XD
