You know, it's really odd being a good guy this time around. How do you stand it?
"Look, crazy voice in my head," Zack muttered, ducking beneath a set of claws, lashing out with the sharp edge of his weapons, flames crackling as it burned the creature. "I really am trying to concentrate, which is kinda hard when you keep talking to me."
You're the one who's talking back. Zack could almost feel the voice smile. Anyone watches us, who do you think is going to be called the crazy one?
"Seph -is- watching us. He is very capable of killing these things and watching what I'm doing at the same time. He's not a General for nothing, you know."
The voice chuckled. There isn't an us. Just you. I'm just what you used to be. Betcha that, if this part of me got reincarnated, then my Heart did, too. The feeling of a smile grew. Red hair, green eyes. Spectacularly messy sense of humor. That would be my heart. Got it memorized?
Oh, hells.
Growling at what that voice just told him, Zack took it out on the Heartless around him.
This was just not fair.

Something seemed to have irritated Zack. He was tearing through them faster than he had to before.
Sephiroth was already making a note to sit the man down and ask what was going on. He seemed to be the only one who knew what these things were, and those weapons....
If Hojo knew about this strange ability that Zack just showed by pulled weapons and fire from nowhere, well, Sephiroth would most likely never see Zack again.
Though he did feel a dull anger that the man had never shared the fact he could do such things. After telling Sephiroth that being different was fine, that there was nothing wrong with it. After hearing how Sephiroth felt about being different, he still pretended like he was like everyone else.
Still, it was somewhat interesting to see Zack destroy them with such ease. And it let Sephiroth know that fire did destroy these creatures well.
Still would have to have a talk with Zack.
After he was done, as Zack would have put it, spanking the creatures flat.

Perched up in a tree, keeping an eye out over camp, Zack decided he had never felt more lonely in his life.
Midgar had been a ghost town. The place was swarming with Heartless, and it had taken a bit to get to where he had wanted to go. He had never felt so relieved as to find Aeris was okay. And he had seen signs that a lot of the SOLDIERs and troops had gotten out. Still, it had felt good to get back out of Midgar intact, with his people there as well.
Then there had been the talk with Seph. Who seemed angry at him, and Zack couldn't figure out why. It wasn't like he knew this was going to happen, or why he knew what he did. Not really.
And Cloud and Aeris kept giving him these looks. Some of the others who had joined them were doing the same, and he had finally said something about watch and retreated upwards.
He had always liked trees. Been climbing them since he was tall enough to start snagging the branches.
Maybe, if he kept back, they wouldn't look at him like that.
Still, it hurt. He was still him. They didn't need to look at him like he had suddenly changed.
Even if he had.
Wasn't his fault.

This was familiar.
It tickled at the back of her mind, like the voices did at times. Only, with this, she tried to grab it.
Nothing was so frustrating when something was just out of her grasp. Like this almost-familiar feel.
It didn't help that Zack had gone off like a kicked puppy. Oh, he had given a smile and said something about keeping watch, but she wasn't fooled one bit. He was different, and that was strangely familiar as well.
Ooh, how she wanted to go kick those things. Or at least go after Zack and talk to him.
But every time she took a step to go outside of the group, someone snagged her back. Usually Cloud. It was sweet, but it made it very hard to go talk to Zack.
"Aeris, he won't go anywhere, but it'll be really hard to explain to him that I let you get eaten by the black things. Plus, how can you make him feel better if you are trying to eat him in a bad way?"
She gave Cloud a look, which just made him blush, then sighed.
Shadows everywhere, and not one made sense.

The night seemed to take forever, and Cloud couldn't help but twitch everytime that yellow eyes got spotted in the bushes. It took a lot to kill those things, and he really was tired. Unlike some of the others, he was just a regular trooper. And the regulars were all started to get a bit ragged.
Not to mention they had a group of people who had no clue on how to fight.
Everytime someone fell, it made his stomach knot a little more.
And now Zack was acting weird.
Well, weird for Zack.
The man had almost fled everyone, hiding away. Now and then, Cloud would see flames explode in the woods, but he wasn't sure if that was Zack and those things fighting, or if someone else had been using a fire materia.
And...Cloud was sure he hadn't imagined the faint flickers of red in Zack's hair. Or that his eyes weren't always purple.
What was going on here?
The sunrise, though, was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen.

Red hair, green eyes. Spectacularly messy sense of humor. That would be my heart.
Hi Reno! =D I can't wait to see what happens when that's all resolved.
And...now that I think of it, since Axel was a Nobody and was reincarnated as Zack, does that mean that Zack is, essentially, a Nobody as well? Or, since he was incarnated, did he gain a heart of his own, different from Axel's? *is curious*
Am also curious to see if Seph, Cloud, and Aeris remember anything from the previous life, or if it's just Zack because of the weird incarnation thing he's got going. If any of the other three remember, I imagine that it might be Aeris, as she's half-Cetra and in tune with everything and all. *highly curious*
...whee, Axel!Zack. *heart bubbles*
no subject
Hehe, neither can I! lots of fun with fire methinks! :)
'...whee, Axel!Zack. *heart bubbles*'
Seconded!!

Nice to see I'm not the only one to make that connection!
and Icedark-san?
Lovely fic bits!

It's going to be interesting. Since Axel and his heart were seperated, they kinda grew back, rather like a starfish.
Aeris is starting to, and Cloud's getting the barest flickers. Zack's the strongest because he was a Nobody, so, for some reason, the memories stayed latch better.

Loved them all as usual, thankyou!! Dont mean to nitpick, just noticed this on my second read through, i think you meant anger right?

Glad you are enjoying them.

Prezzie!
Re: Prezzie!
Weee!
I'm replaying KH2 at the moment, so this was a wonderful thing to see.
Assuming, as you've hinted, Cloud = Roxas, then I think it will be amusing that when Cloud remembers, he will suddenly become the most able of them all, wielding keyblades and such. That will get rid of his inferiority issues very quickly.
I really like Sephiroth's reactions, but I really just want to hug Zack.
Re: Weee!
Cloud isn't Roxas, but he reminds Axel of the boy, so that's causing some issues with Zack's brain at times.
Seph needs swatted, and Zack always takes hugs.
