Tifa's Heaven (Tifa Lockhart x Male Reader) (Final Fantasy VII Fanfic)

Chapter 20: Ancestral Memories

The party was properly settling in within the compound of the villa safehouse as they were working with the Avalanche mercenaries to be armed and ready in case Shinra retaliates with an ambush. Cloud, Tifa and Barret were discussing with the soldiers while Y/N needed to clear his head from the interaction of the mysterious glowing orb projecting an illusion of Sephiroth.

Y/N wanted to more of his ancestral bloodline especially his great great-grandfather since Shinra had messed with his head during his time as a SOLDIER. After having a morning drink, Y/N went to find Aerith who was the villa's backyard garden caring for the flowers.

Aerith: oh good morning Y/N, did you have a good rest?

Y/N: I did, especially after that orb messed me up

Aerith placed her hands on Y/N's head.

Aerith: you're not sick anyway, that's a good sign

Y/N: yeah. Hey, when I gave you my hand, you said you saw my grandfather in your vision

Aerith: yeah?

Y/N: is it possible for you to tell me more of him? Shinra messed up my memories during my training with them

Aerith: well I can try, but I can't dig into too much details, just some important memories

Y/N nodded.

Y/N: the last thing I want to do is to carry a weak Tifa in my arms. I can't bring myself to let that happen

Aerith: as I said, you control your future and destiny

Y/N: it is a blank page waiting to be written

Aerith: you've been listening

Y/N: I'm a quick learner

Aerith giggled and sat down beside the flowers while Y/N sat beside her and gave her his left hand. The flower girl held it and closed her eyes as she see visions of visual images, digging through and cleaning Y/N's mind.

Aerith: I saw something bad...

Y/N: what is it?

Aerith: when your grandfather was a young man, he saw... *gasps* his father and brothers getting killed... they were betrayed

Y/N: betrayed? By someone they trusted?

Aerith: someone they looked at as a friend

Y/N was in shock as he too had a similar memory, which was after Sephiroth burned Nibelheim to the ground.

Y/N: what else do you see?

Aerith: he... your grandfather wore a hood similar to yours and killed the traitor responsible and yelled that the family is not dead, he is still here

Y/N: wow...

Aerith stopped to take some fresh air while Y/N held her.

Y/N: take a breath, don't push yourself

Aerith breathed and laid her head on Y/N's shoulders.

Aerith: I did see some visions of his later life, he went on to lead a special group

Y/N: special group? Of who?

Aerith: surprisingly... ordinary people like those who are working with Cloud, Tifa and Barret to fight what they believe is right

Y/N: whoa, my grandfather is a legend

Aerith: I can't tell what was the name of the group he's leading, they're so sneaky

Y/N: if it's part of their way of life, it's understandable. Thank you, Aerith

Aerith: aww, it's my pleasure
