The team was summoning to Olympus Coliseum where they thought the god's son, Hercules, summoned them. But when they got there, it was a different story…

"Boy, that's a big coliseum." said Selphie looking up at the entrance.
"I think this is where all the heroes train, ya?" Wakka asked.
"Huh, I don't need training. I'm already a hero as it is." Tidus replied.

"Really now, Tidus" a male voice said. The group turns around and saw a tall blond-haired guy wearing a long black jacket, black pants, and heavy boots and carrying a big Buster sword. Tidus knows him and give him a I-don't-like-you-looked.
"Tidus, you know him?" Selph asked Tidus as he went past them.
"Yea, his name is Cloud Strife." Still giving him that looked.
"Yea, I heard of him…" Wakka announce "All I know he's has a big sword."
"And a bigger ergo if you tell me," Tidus said, finally turn away.
"You really don't' like this guy, don't you." Wakka said in a low tone.

Cloud stop at the coliseum door and looked back at the group, particularly Tidus. "Are you coming in?" he asked.
"Yea, I'm coming." Tidus yelled back at him as he walks up to the door. Wakka and Selph just looked at each other.
"Boy, this is gonna be good." Wakka said excited. Wakka and Selph follow the two unfriendly heroes inside.

Inside the Olympus Coliseum, Hercules and Philoctetes (Phil for short) was waiting for them.
"Ah, I'm glad you guys could make it." Hercules started out.
"All course they came." Phil told Hercules. "They're hero, or are they."
Tidus and Cloud looked at each other with evil looks on their face.

"Oh boy…" Selph said nervously.
"Cloud, you may know this, but the others don't so I have to give them the information." Hercules told him. "I summoned you because two of you know Sir. Auron, the 'Legendary Guardian.' "

"Sir Auron, is he here?" Tidus asked.
"Yes but not in good terms. He's the prisoner of the Underworld."
"The Underworld, what's that?" Wakka asked
"It what you called the 'Farplane' in Spira but it's in reverse." Comment Cloud.
"And how the hell you know about Spira, Cloud?" Tidus Asked.
"Well all course Auron told me. He told me about you, Yuna, everyone, and everything." Cloud answers.
"Why would he tell you that? That don't even sound like Auron I know, and respected." He replied, "He wouldn't tell all his business to somebody like you."
Cloud laughs. "Why? Are you jealous?"
"JUST SHUT UP!!!!!" Tidus yelled with anger and charge towards Cloud.

But Cloud made Tidus trip. Selph can only watch helplessly as Tidus takes out his 'Caladbolg' sword and charge at Cloud again. Cloud took out his 'First Tsurugi' and blocks him making a swords deadlock clash.

"Should we stop them?" Hercules asked Phil.
"No, this is entertainment." Phil replied.
"I wish I have pop corn." Wakka commented. Selph knock him on his head with her nunchaku.
"Ouch! What was that for?" Wakka asked her,.
"Big meanly..." She mumbles.

They break from the sword lock with Tidus almost losing his balance. Cloud strike but Tidus did his one-handed back somersault, avoiding the attack. Cloud ran up to strike again, but Tidus block it with his sword making another swords deadlock clash.

Selph had enough and yelled at Hercules, Phil, and Wakka.
"IS ANYONE GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS?"
The guys looked at each other and yelled back the replied: "NO!"
Selph have to end this. So she did the only thing that could stop them. She took a deep breath and yell:
"SSSSSSSSSSTTTTTTTTTOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPP IIIIIIIIITTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The fighters stop and looked at Selph.
"Let just finish the mission first, than you can kill each other off later. Okay?" She told them. She turns back to Hercules who looked puzzle like the rest of the group. "So what is our mission?" she asked him with her fingers on her hip.

Hercules starts again. "Auron is trap in The Underworld, but to get through you have to be in the Underworld tournaments. Your mission: Win the Underworld tournaments and rescues Auron."
"That's mean that I have to team up with this goofball?" Cloud commented.
"Who are you calling a goofball, heartless soldier?" Tidus fired back.

"Wahoo, Wahoo, Wahoo!" Wakka got between them. "Can you guys ever get along?"
Hercules and Phil looked at each other and smile, with ponder. The group looked at them knowing something is up.
"Is it something I said?" Wakka asked.

Hercules and Phil turn their back at them and whisper among themselves. Curious of what they are saying. The group comes closer to the whispering heroes. Noticing that the group was eavesdropping, they move farther away from them. Few minuets later, they return to the waiting group with smiles on their face.

"Herc and I have made the decision. The mission of Saving Sir Auron is only for Cloud and Tidus." Phil announces.
"WHAT!!!!" Tidus and Cloud both cried. "HELL NO." they both replied.
"Well, Sir Auron is in hell right now and you two are the only one who can save him." said Hercules.
"Why I have to work with this whining kid?" asked Cloud.
"Why I have to work with this stuck-up push over?" Asked Tidus.
"Why you chose the heroes who don't get along?" Asked Wakka
"And why we left out of all the fun?" asked Selph.

"Okay, I will explain:" Hercules started.

1. You two have to get along if you want to complete this mission and save Sir Auron.
2. You both know him and got the skills to win the tournaments.
3. They are stubborn pigheaded need to be taught a lesson
4. I didn't mean to change your plans. It was a last minuet decisions."

"I can not work with this kid." Cloud told Herc and Phil
"Who are you calling kid, pig face?" Tidus fired back at Cloud as he got in his face.
"HEY! You can't get what you want unless you guy work together." Phil got between them. "Tidus, you can't help Sir Auron if you keep fighting Cloud. Cloud, you can't get your revenge on Sephiroth if you fighting your teammate."
"We're not teammates," they both shouted.
Phil turns to Hercules. "I don't know what to about this, Herc."
"Maybe we should let them fight each other." Herc replied.
"What?" he looked at Herc crazy.
"Maybe if they fight each other, then they may respect each other more."
"ARE YOU'RE CRAZY?" Wakka yelled at Herc. "Cloud will KILL Tidus with his damn sword."
"Yea, Tidus may have the speed but Cloud got the strength. Tidus doesn't stand a chance." Selph announces.
"Thanks for you confident, Selph" Tidus sigh.
"No problem," she replied with a smile.
"See even his friend don't even have fate in him to be a REAL hero." Cloud laughs as he walk away.
"Well at lest I didn't let someone die..." Tidus mumble under his breath, but loud enough for Cloud to hear it. Cloud stops by his response and feels his blood boil.

That's when everything snapped. Cloud shoves Tidus across the room. When Tidus tried to get up, Cloud strikes with his sword making Tidus cried in pain. The group could only watches as Cloud held Tidus off the ground by his shirt.

"Never ever say something about that again. Got me, kid?" Cloud told Tidus. And toss him to the other side across the room. Wakka and Selph ran towards the beaten comrade as Cloud walks away. They sit him up as he use his Caladbolg' for support. The blood on his face and scar on his chest only shows 1/3 of Cloud's power. Tidus got one more thing to say to him before all his strength is gone.

"Cloud…" Tidus whisper his name. Cloud looked at Tidus with anger and pity. Pity that Sir. Auron has to deal with this kid. "Aerith want you to live life. She sacrifices for you to live your life. You made her sacrifice in vain…and that's all I'm going to say…. for now…" then Tidus passed out from the pain.
