2 Chapter 2: A New Start And Room Mate
Wolfgang spiralled down to the portal and went to his new universe without warning whatsoever. "Damned Genesis, that old man was something else." Wolfgang gave a chuckle and closed his eyes when he felt that his consciousness was slipping.
After a few hours, he felt floaty. Like he was underwater. 'Where the hell am I?' Wolfgang's consciousness was waxing and waning. So he tried to wake himself up. By opening his eyes, but he felt so weak and he could not even do anything.
'What's going on? Did I get scammed or something?' Wolfgang thought about his situation and didn't really have an explanation of what was happening currently.
He only had an overwhelming desire to sleep, so he did. A couple of weeks pass and he started to have a pretty good idea on what was happening after analyzing everything around him.
'Damn. 1, I can't really move. 2, I can't see. 3, I don't need to eat or drink, but I have a body. 4, there's something beside me. 5, I get tired really easily. I'm in the damned womb aren't I?' Wolfgang concluded after a couple of days and cursed Genesis in his mind.
'Old man... You really had to mess with me like this, huh? Whatever. It just means that I have more time to grow up and plan my actions in this world.' He thought it wasn't that bad. Wolfgang then started to get sleepy again.
'I really have to do something about this though. I feel tired all the time. Makes sense, brain activity eats up a lot of calories. Mom, you should eat more. I have a twin too!' Wolfgang complained, but he just slept again. Unable to combat the inevitable drowsiness.
After a few days, he was still trying to make sense of what he'll do with his life. And there was a really big problem that he forgot about.
'Wait a minute, I don't even know where I am...' Wolfgang's blood went cold. Thinking if he was in the type 0 universe. Spira, 13, and 15 with the endless night is not pretty as well. Now that he thought about it, a lot of final fantasy settings weren't pretty at all.
'I may be possibly fucked?' Wolfgang got really nervous and his mind was in overdrive. 'Damn, I guess there's no rest for the wicked... I must be strong.' He began training immediately and bet it all on his trait. Because to call it a cheat is not quite true.
He began concentrating and firing his muscles to the best he's got. Thinking that he'll be more developed as a newborn after his mother gives birth. Every second counted, it was possibly a do or die scenario.
And he learned from a young age that there is no such thing as being over prepared. It is much better to kill an insect with overwhelming might than to be caught lacking. All it takes is a simple misstep and you're done.
Wolfgang, with his measly strength and developing body. Began training at the age of 1 month since his inception. Barely a grain of rice in size. His heart, beating an average of 65 beats per minute. A little bud of life that has just begun.
At the 2nd month of his creation, his neural tube has mostly formed. Meaning, he can move his muscles with greater efficiency. As the nerves and neural tissues are now more operable.
The cartilages that was the stand in for a skeleton started to change into bone. And with a formed connection of nerves. He also developed senses, which includes pain.
His tiny body that was being ripped apart from his exercise would've killed him without his adaptation. But it was his saving grace, and he had one goal. To live a life that was his own in a phantasmal world.
Wolfgang's drive would not waver for even a single second. He decided to become a monster that will overtake his peers. So far ahead of the race, he won't even see them over the horizon. A being of absolute might that can do everything he wants.
'If I want to do this, I should do it correctly. Wait for me, world... Wait for me.'
A few weeks passed once again, but he felt something invasive. It entered his body and he felt searing pain.
'What the fuck is this!? Argh!' Wolfgang's little hands balled into fists as he began twitching and spasming. He didn't understand what was happening.
But he could feel it, the foreign thing that entered him through his umbilical cord was trying something. 'No you don't!' With all that he could, he resisted. Wolfgang could feel his mind being polluted by something. Voices started to whisper to him.
*Become one with us, assimilate and destroy every living thing in this planet.* Wolfgang felt the voices corrode his consciousness like saltwater that rusted iron.
He tried grasping onto something just to take his mind off the burning pain. And he felt another sac. It was his twin, he felt the other being struggle and it wasn't even aware of this fact.
'Fuck, come on little bro or sis. We'll make it, and whoever's doing this shit to us. We'll definitely beat them up. Mark my words, I'll come for you.' Wolfgang continued on and suffered greater effects because of his consciousness that was absent from his twin.
His adaptation kicked in and began to fight back. The underdeveloped cells in his body triggered a reaction from the foreign body that entered it.
Wolfgang's cells assimilated the invader and used it as building blocks for his development. The pain was still there, but the voices stopped.
'Geez, I thought I would go insane... What the hell even was that?' Wolfgang's inquisitive mind tried putting the puzzles into place. But he could only think of experimentation.
'Nasty asshole, whoever you are. You're going to have a piece of my mind later.' Wolfgang swore and he tried feeling for his twin.
He feared for the worst and thought that his little bro or sis died. But Wolfgang felt a tiny hand that touched him through the thin film they were in.
'Thank god, I'm assuming that the first wave is the worst of it. Why am I even so attached to my twin anyways? Hah, must be because it's the only connection I have in this world for now.' Wolfgang got a bit sentimental and thought that his twin was the one that kept him grounded.
He would've been an unfeeling machine otherwise with all the training he's been doing like a maniac. Though it also helped him get through the experiment because of his newfound pain tolerance.
'Hah, when will this end. I wish I can get born soon, I'll assassinate whoever the hell is putting us through this.' Wolfgang sighed in his mind and thought that being born was a far greater deal right now. Instead of just a little test subject inside their mother's womb.
But what he didn't know was. His mother was one of the people that agreed in experimenting on them in the first place.
"They're still alive, impressive! They will be superhuman when they get born Lucrecia! Mark my words, these twins will lead us to salvation!" A scientist wearing glasses that was clearly unhinged was in cloud 9.
The woman who was his lover, sighed in relief and put a hand on her stomach. "Just hold on for a bit more, children. When you get pass the 3rd month. Then I assume you'll definitely live on. Forgive mom, it's for the betterment of mankind." The woman gave a cramped smile.
'Forgive me Vinny. our children are probably going through immense pain. But I can't abandon humanity's hopes. Shinra is draining the mako of the planet. But with our children being integrated with Jenova, a cetra. They will lead us to the promised land.' Lucrecia closed her eyes and shed a tear. (pic)
"Hojo, let me rest for a bit. I think I got a bit tired after the experiment." Lucrecia faked her exhaustion so the children won't get put under another experiment due to the massive success.
"Yes... Yes, that's fine. We will inject them with Jenova's cells a bit more later. We can't burden them now! They will be my masterpiece!" Hojo laughed like a lunatic and Lucrecia immediately felt that it was the wrong decision to leave her former lover because of guilt.

Wolfgang continued on with his daily life in the womb and he definitely felt something after assimilating Jenova's cells. He felt powerful, like he wasn't even human.
And he began having a link to his sibling. He concluded that it must have been because of the experiment and he noticed that his sibling also got stronger.
'Hehehe~ it's smooth sailing, starting from here... I'll take all your experiments and boost myself to the limit.' Wolfgang rubbed his little hands and felt amazing. It was free real estate, he and his sibling would grow far more powerful. And he would also have a nice, little side kick that can be as strong as him.
He then felt it again, another dose of Jenova cells. But this time, it was far more. But due to his adaptation that now had a resistance to it like a vaccine. He suffered minimal consequences and his body grew much stronger.
But the same couldn't be said to his sibling though, as the other baby that was with him started thrashing around.
Wolfgang gritted his gums and thought that he could at least give something to his sibling or something. So he just reached out for now.
But he didn't know that it was Jenova's genes. And Jenova's currently in a female cetra's body. So Wolfgang received some genes from a Cetra as well. The ancients that communed with the planet and controlled the lifestream to give life to the lands.
And because of Jenova's immense vitality, Wolfgang subconsciously gave some of his that he assimilated from all the Jenova cells he accumulated. Giving his sibling a little boost that comforted it.
And as the days pass, Lucrecia was correct. After their 3rd month. Finishing the 1st trimester of pregnancy. Wolfgang's sibling stabilized greatly. Also because of his help of giving his sibling some life force.
"Yes... Yes! The other one is much stronger. But it will be fine, Jenova's cells basically funnel into the other. But its sibiling is also responding greatly to Jenova's cells. They will be magnificent~" Hojo was overjoyed.
After years of failing in their experiments in the Jenova project. They finally have not just one, but two organisms that have taken in the cells without problems.
"Yes, they will definitely lead us to the promised land." Lucrecia gave a genuine smile, not at Hojo. But to her children that would definitely be born. Jenova's cells do not really affect them much anymore. Especially Wolfgang, and they will be born safely.

Months pass and Wolfgang continued his training inside the womb. Being a training maniac that would build his body up to the limit, even though he wasn't even born yet.
Lucrecia even started to need eating thousands more of calories in order to stay healthy. Or Wolfgang would kill her indirectly with malnutrition. He was gobbling up nutrients like a leech.
His body hardened up and began to evolve further. Being aided by Jenova's cells, mutating more and more as Jojo gave Wolfgang a far more potent dose of cells than his sibling.
It was only because of his pliable nature as an undeveloped baby and adaptability that made him survive.
Even his sibling who survived the first experiments of being inoculated with Jenova cells would've died long ago. The punishment his body receives is even more brutal than adult test subjects that all died from just the first experimental testing.
Wolfgang would continue and count the days in his head. He knew that when he developed fingers and nails that he was at least 4 months old. Only 5 more to go he thought.
Day after day, he would train and make a ruckus inside Lucrecia's womb. Giving her endless troubles. Many sleepless night for her passed during her pregnancy.
And the fateful day came, Lucrecia went into labor. Hojo was ecstatic, wanting to see the birth of two children that were integrated with Jenova cells since their development.
'Wait, the walls are getting more cramped... Is it time!? I must get out first, I'm going to be claustrophobic in here. Besides, I must be the older brother!' Wolfgang immediately began his descent and gave Lucrecia an easier time in giving birth.
He escaped from his prison for 9 months and saw the blinding lights for the first time in his new life. Lucrecia feared the worst when her child didn't cry.
But she saw that the child was inquisitively looking around. Clearly with intelligent eyes, like he was observing the surroundings and making a conclusion.
But Lucrecia didn't care and fondly caressed his jet black hair. "You're my angel who will guide us. Your name will be Ramiel. Ugh!" Lucrecia felt another set of intense contractions and her other child that had silver hair just like Jenova was born.
"A beautiful girl... You, will be the savior of mankind. Alexandra." Lucrecia gave a smile and passed out from exhaustion at giving birth to the twins.
