There 'was' the Black Materia, that was used by Sephiroth to summon Meteor, in FF VII, so technically it does exist already. Plus, I thought Cloud was emo enough already (plus prior to AC, infected with Jenova cells anyway,) to be a proper Dark Knight anyway. Besides, Dark Knight doesn't necessarily mean evil knight, as look what Batman's career is like, as such.
