The entirety of Midgar saw the conclusion of the Wutai war. And Shinra was pleased with the results. Branding the twins as war heroes. But One of them instantly knew that was bad news.
"Hmmm, it seems they are even stronger than I thought... They will definitely flip Midgar upside down, I cannot stay here." Hojo squinted his eyes and decided to pack up instantly.
He took a look at the map of the world and wondered where he should go. "I guess these places will do fine." Hojo picked the northern crater where Jenova was found and the location of the temple of the ancients at the far south.
At the south, Hojo would research more about the ancients and the black materia there. Which could prove to be useful.
Hojo would bring Deepground to the north and create more abominations there. He was already prepared, getting information about the G project and the properties of the G cells. Which copies other genomes extensively.
He managed to make clones of himself that would surely give the twins trouble in trying to track him. "Hehehe~ I can't get caught yet. There is so much more to learn." Hojo looked at a file of Lucrecia's research before going to the Jenova project.
The omega weapon and protomateria that controls it interested him due to Vincent's sudden appearance. Surprised by the ex-Turk's lack of change, he hypothesized that whatever happened to Vincent would make someone immortal. And he wanted to combine that with Minerva cells to make the ultimate beings.

Ramiel and Alexandra were walking through the streets of Wutai as Godo will be making an announcement to the state.
"Ahh, old man. Are those takoyakis? I'll have everything you can make." Ramiel saw an uncle selling some takoyakis.
"Sure thing sonny." The uncle didn't quite know that he was talking with the new owner of Wutai. Just happy that he'll be able to finish his wares quick.
"You guys want some?" Ramiel gave some to Angeal and Genesis who are still quite awkward towards him. Now knowing that they shouldn't be called a 1st class SOLDIER.
"Why are you two being awkward?" Alexandra called them out. Being a bit more of a busybody today due to her great mood.
"Ahhh, it's just. You know? I feel we haven't done much here in Wutai. And we are going back to Midgar with us being called war heroes." Angeal gave a sheepish smile and Genesis reluctantly nodded.
"Hmmm, then how about we give you an upgrade?" Ramiel smiled and thought of giving them some Minerva cells due to the innate flaw of project G.
Because they don't really have Jenova cells, they will degrade faster and faster. Until their bodies can't handle it anymore and collapse.
"An upgrade? What do you mean?" Genesis raised a brow, curious. But he knew that nothing comes for free.
"Well, I'll make you a tad bit stronger. Through some little juice and training. With one condition though. Call me master." Ramiel had a smug smile on his face.
"Deal." Genesis agreed immediately though, already seeing him like a teacher figure that made them stronger than they have ever been.
Ramiel was surprised and Alexandra chuckled at his fail. Thinking that they will be a bit more reluctant. "There, there. You've tried." Alex patted him on the back and Ramiel pouted at him.
"You tease me girl? Remember that I have all your hair treatment products." Ramiel fought back and they quarrelled with each other.
"Hah, they really just look like normal people when you see them like this." Angeal sighed, there was such a gap in their power and attitudes, it was unreal for him.
"Don't sweat the small stuff my friend, I'd say that will benefit us more!" Genesis did a guts pose and was excited to get stronger.
After a bit of roaming around the streets of Wutai village. Godo announced that he will not be the leader of the island anymore.
The citizens were of course concerned that Shinra will be occupying the lands and make monstrous Mako reactors.
But Godo assured them that they are in capable hands. Introducing Ramiel and Alexandra as the new owners of the island. They were met with scrutiny of course. But when a video of their battle against the Leviathan appeared, they all shut up.
"Godo, we will be transferring our base of operations here. Our companies will be working here." Ramiel gave him a file of what were the things that will arrive.
While they were talking, Lazard gave a call to him and he answered. "Ramiel, Midgar is cheering for the heroes of Shinra. Good work over there." Lazard congratulated them.
"All in a day's work, though it was quite abrupt. The war didn't last long. Are the preparations ready?" Ramiel squinted his eyes and thought that things will be hectic if their plans aren't ready.
"It is, just in time really. Due to Shinra focusing on the war and Avalanche's attack on the Mako reactors. The company was able to shine and we've sold tons of the phones to the populace." Lazard smiled and was excited to bring down Shinra to its knees.
"Good, I'll bring down the plates myself. Start using my Cetra powers to bring some green in Midgar." Ramiel cut the call and looked towards Alexandra.
"Come on, let's go to Nibelheim." He smiled and patted smacked Angeal and Genesis on the back. "You two as well boys, come on." Ramiel gestured for them to follow.
"What? Why are we going to a backwater village~ We've had enough of that life in Banora." Genesis looked was dissatisfied.
But Alexandra just stared at him. "We're visiting some friends, just wait. We'll be going to Midgar right after." Alex shrugged and Genesis thought he'll get beaten up, but she was in too good of a mood.
They then went to Bismarck and flew to the nearby village of Nibelheim.
