Part 1

 * The story begins with Cloud joining a group known as AVALANCHE in a series of raids against the Mako reactors that surround the city of Midgar. Although their first mission, which was to blow up the Mako Reactor 1, is a success, AVALANCHE is trapped at another reactor during a subsequent raid. Before they can escape the reactor explodes, launching Cloud from the upper levels of Midgar into the slums below. He lands unharmed on a flower bed, where he is formally introduced to Aerith.
 * Prompted by the arrival of Shinra's Turks operatives sent to capture Aerith, Cloud agrees to work for Aerith as her bodyguard.
 * After Cloud defends Aerith from her would-be kidnappers, Aerith offers to show him the way back to Sector 7. They then meet up with Tifa Lockhart, and the three infiltrate Corneo Hall, the mansion of crime boss Don Corneo. From him, the party learns that Shinra has discovered the location of AVALANCHE's hideout and plans to collapse the upper level of Sector 7 onto the slums below.
 * Despite AVALANCHE's efforts to prevent it, Shinra successfully destroys Sector 7, killing its population and three members of AVALANCHE.
 * The Turks finally capture Aerith, who is the last living member of the Cetra, a race closely attuned with the planet, and previously thought extinct.
 * President Shinra believes that Aerith can lead him to a mythical land of fertility known as the Promised Land, which he expects to be ripe with easily harvested Mako energy.
 * The remaining members of AVALANCHE—Cloud, Tifa, and Barret—infiltrate Shinra's headquarters to rescue Aerith. After freeing her and Red XIII, who joins the party, they escape when most of the personnel in the building are killed, including President Shinra.
 * Finding the body of the president skewered by a masamune, Cloud suspects a man called Sephiroth has returned from his presumed death. These suspicions are confirmed by an executive spared during the massacre, who claims to have witnessed Sephiroth murder the president and state that he would never allow Shinra to claim the Promised Land. The party also learns that during Sephiroth's attack on Shinra, the headless body of a creature named Jenova disappeared from the building's research facility.
 * While Rufus Shinra, the president's son, assumes control of the Shinra Company, AVALANCHE pursues Sephiroth across the planet, fearing his intentions for the Promised Land may be more destructive than Shinra's. During this pursuit, the party is joined by Yuffie, Cait Sith, Vincent Valentine, and Cid Highwind. As the journey progresses, each member of the group must come to terms with personal conflicts from their past, and the full scope of Sephiroth's plan is eventually revealed: if the planet is significantly damaged, the Lifestream within will gather at the point of injury, attempting to heal the wound.
 * Sephiroth explains that he intends to use a powerful spell known as Meteor to summon a powerful meteor that would heavily damage the planet, inciting a reaction in the Lifestream to heal the wound before it can cause the planet's destruction. Entering the fissure created by the meteor's impact, Sephiroth would merge with all the energy of the planet, granting him God-like power over it.
 * At the Temple of the Ancients, AVALANCHE attempts to undermine Sephiroth's plot by claiming the Black Materia needed to activate Meteor, but Sephiroth displays a mysterious power over Cloud, forcing him to relinquish the Black Materia.
 * At an inn in Kalm, Cloud tells the party his story five years ago. During a Shinra mission at Nibelheim, the hometown of Cloud and Tifa, Sephiroth learned that he was the product of this experiment. However, unaware of all details involved, he concluded that he was a Cetra who had been produced solely from Jenova's genetic material. Enraged, Sephiroth burned down the town, intending to kill all descendants of those he believed had abandoned his ancestors in the defense of the planet. According to Cloud, he confronted Sephiroth during this massacre, after which Sephiroth vanished under unknown circumstances and was presumed dead until his reappearance in the Shinra Building.
 * Fearing that Sephiroth may cast Meteor, Aerith sets off to stop him on her own.
 * Concerned for Aerith's safety, AVALANCHE follows her to the Northern Continent, where they enter the Forgotten City, an ancient city once populated by the Cetra. After finding Aerith praying to the planet for aid, Sephiroth, unseen, begins affecting Cloud's behavior, once again, and attempts to force him to kill her. Cloud resists Sephiroth's command, but Sephiroth himself appears and kills Aerith. After laying her body to rest, the surviving characters resolve to defeat Sephiroth and avenge her.
