Jenova Audition

(OOC: I figured I'd try my hand at a not very well known character to help with the goddess problems. >:])

It had been many long generations since Jenova last walked the Planet.  Back then, she had only been known as a Calamity that had fallen from the sky.  Somehow, the Cetra had contained her and for many more long years, Jenova had been in a sort of stasis.  When she had been found, although her powers were dormant, Jenova was pleased how foolish the scientists had been in using her cells to do experiments with.  It was her cells that had helped create Sephiroth.  Where she hadn't been the one to physically give birth to Sephiroth, Jenova was partly his mother too.  The young mostly human experiment had no clue that he had been birthed by someone else.  In fact, the truth of what he was had broken his mind long before he could figure anything out.  Stuck with a body, at the time wen Sephiroth had found her locked up, Jenova had delved into the man's broken mind.  Seeing him for what he was, pleased of the discovery, Jenova had requested he take her head.  No one knew she had the gift of telepathy nor of the fact what she could do as a mere head.  Her body hadn't been suited to move on its own anymore because of the stasis the Cetra had put her under.  The only way she could move around was if Sephiroth removed her head.  Her cells could eventually generate a new body, if she had to but it would take a lot of time.  Time she was willing to make since her lifespan far exceeded those around her being what she was.

"Ah, it is so nice to have a body once more!" Jenova spoke, coming out of her mental ponderings.  She wasn't sure how it happened.  Her body must have gotten a sudden burst of beneficial energy for her to regenerate a body so swiftly.  Normally, it would've taken her ages to grow a new one.  Flexing her hands and examining her extremities, Jenova smirked pleasantly.  Granted, she was bare naked out in the middle of nowhere but she didn't seem to care.  She was just happy to see her body was back and now she didn't have to rely on Sephiroth anymore to get around.  Of course, she wouldn't abandon him.  In a way, she felt like she was his mother.  The human woman that birthed him had gone into a severe depression and sealed herself away in a crystal, forever in crystal stasis.  Since Sephiroth had her cells, he could easily be viewed as what she was.  He had the power.

A dark laughter filled the air, low at first until it was full out, crazed laughter.  Jenova couldn't help it.  After all, the Cetra had tried to permanently warp her body to prevent her from ever doing any great harm ever again.  "You poor, pathetic fools.  You thought you could defeat what you did not understand...now, you are all long since dead.  Who is to save the mere vermin that walk these lands now?  I might have some...minor set backs but that had all been because of you all only prolonging the inevitable!  I was not at my full power then...but I most certainly am NOW!" Jenova said aloud as if she were speaking to the Cetra as a whole as if they could all hear her.  A dark, delighted expression was written then all over Jenova's face.  Surprisingly, she wasn't as twisted like her dead body had been back then.  Her body, at that time, had been so terribly warped that she been but a mere shadow of her former self.  Her beautifully dark feathered wings had been ravaged and torn apart and her body's innards had been hanging out. Even an eyeball of her's had wound up in a spot where it shouldn't have been and her veins stuck out all over her body from the magic the Cetra had performed on her. The Cetra had certainly done a number on her body before sealing her away.  Now she could easily pass for a woman in her early thirties with light gray, long white hair.  A trait that Sephiroth had inherited from her cells. 

As of right now, Jenova looked like a blue skinned woman with glowing eyes.  They radiated a pink in color and were slit like that of a feline's.  After examining her body in glee, Jenova wondered then if her powers were fully restored.  There had been only one way to find out.  Physically, her wings weren't always upon her body.  Much like Sephiroth, her wings sprouted at her beck and call.  Of course, no one would know this since Jenova's wings had been ripped apart and torn long before her discovery.  Extending her hands in front of her, her fingers also extended to some extent, Jenova then extended them to parallel with her sides as she gave them a swift, fluid motion as if to give them a flick.  When she did, in a burst of dark red and dark blue feathers, Jenova's wings had appeared.  All six of them!  The feathers on her back varied from dark red, to purple as it came in closer contact to her dark blue feathers.  She had a unique plumage.

"Oh, dear Cetra, you have failed!" Jenova gave another crazed laugh before turning to look around at her surroundings.  In the distance, she could see what looked to be some sort of hume settlement.  Her eyes, although her dark smile never faded, had narrowed.  Even though her body had been dead, she didn't like it being further desecrated by the scientists who had found her.  Sure, she had been pleased when they used her cells to experiment with in hopes of them creating something that could help her restore herself faster.  Her body had been so dead that she hadn't felt any pain"This time...I will take over this PLANET and there is nothing that will stand in my way!  This PLANET will serve as our vessel as we corrupt the universe!" Jenova said, raising her hands up to the heavens.  Immediately above her a storm erupted.  Jenova smiled happily as she did so before it faltered. 

"Oh?  But what is this I sense?" Jenova said, her arms now lowered to either side of her.  Her gaze was still raised to the heavens, her eyes narrowed and her brow furrowed.  Nothing moved while Jenova stood there, assessing this feeling.  She wasn't sure why but it felt like time was confused and she could sense the presence of times different than her own.  In fact, she could also sense the past.  If time were left like this, the extent of worlds they could taint was extraordinary!  Jenova rose her brows slightly as another dark grin spread upon her face.

"Oh, how marvelous this is!" Jenova stated.  With that grin still on her face, Jenvoa shut her eyes and reached outwards with her mind.  She was searching for Sephiroth and those three Remnants.  It had been interesting to see that Sephiroth could split into three other beings.  If they returned, along with Sephiroth, they could easily all become quite a force to be reckoned with. 

"My children...it has been so very long...we have failed and I could not have protected you then.  Mother is here once more but Mother is now well again!  I say now is the time for our Reunion!"

MOTHER. TELL YOUR CHILDREN NOT TO WALK MY WAY.
