The only response was more shaking. Virus. Virus. He was another Calamity. Evil and unwanted, as so many had claimed.

But Genesis was here. Genesis was here and he was warm and they were alike...

The memories... no; NO! Not a part of him! Not again!

"Seph...? Seph, what's wrong?" Genesis rubbed his back in an attempt to calm him. The man in his arms seemed almost inconsolable, the way he was not responding in any reassuring manner. There was only shaking. Genesis wasn't the best man for consoling others, Angeal always did that among the three of them, but seeing as now they were alone with only each other, abandoned by the rest of the world, it was about time he stepped up and practiced his hand at this.

He forces himself to speak, but the words don't make much sense. "No... no, no. He was me. My mind... my being. Like before."

"Did you meet an alternate?" Genesis tried to make sense of Sephiroth's incoherent words. Like before... "Was someone was playing with your mind? Trying to break you again?"

He breaks down, repeating "no" over and over, but it's obviously denial and not a negative answer to the question.

Genesis only embraces him tighter, not wanting to let go of him, letting him break down on him.

"I won't let you break again." He murmurs against his ear tenderly.

More shaking and crying, but Genesis is obviously helping, because the string of denials stops.

"You'll always be safe with me," he murmurs again, holding him tight.

More shaking. "V-virus. A virus, like her. I-- kill."

"But a virus wouldn't let me live, would it?" Genesis chuckles softly. "It's your cells that keep me alive, after all."

"....Virus..."

"Won't you tell me about it...?"

"V-irus." He's forcing the words out, clutching at his head, honestly trying. "He said-- we were like Her. My alternates. We-- were-- another-- Calamity. My alternate... proved it. Virus. Virus, in my mind."

"I don't believe that. I don't believe you are all like her. Those words are just another form of a virus. Don't believe in it!" Genesis held him tight again, his face stern in resolve. No, Sephiroth was no virus. He knew him so before the Nibelheim incident. Sephiroth may have been made to kill, but he was only human when it came to the very core of him, or so he believed.

"They were me! I-- can't--" He tried to pull away from Genesis.

"But they're not all exactly you. They are alternatives of you." Genesis held on to him, trying to reason with him.
