A/N: Hello all! Tis your slightly demented author friend Awlric Hayell! Once again, this fiction has come from the deep dark depths of obscurity (honestly, it was just a conversation I had with Misora "Jet" Hunter about what if.) Enjoy.

Begin story…

"Oi! Cloud!"

Cloud Strife looked up form where he was meditating in Ansem's study. The young Keyblade Master, Sora (what is his last name anyway?), had just ran into the room and was currently staring at Cloud in wide-eyed curiosity. "I was just talking with the Aeris and Tifa and Yuffie and they were telling me about all the adventures you all had (before the Heartless, of course) and some of the bad guys you faced and the dungeons and…."

Cloud had tuned out the rest of Sora's excited chatter, returning to his meditation.

"…and all the cool moves you had and will you teach me the Omnislash?"

Cloud was understandably put off balance by the unexpected question. He blinked at Sora, who was waiting for an answer. "Yes?"

Sora grinned widely. "Yatta!" He screamed, throwing his fist into the air. Cloud just sat in a daze, watching Sora dance around the room and wondering what the hell he had just agreed to.

(Later, at the gates to Radiant Garden)

Sora and Cloud were standing in the square, fascing a typical training dummy. Sora stared at the dummy curiously before looking up at Cloud. "Cloud-sensei?"

"What?"

"Why does that Typical training dummy look like Sephiroth?"

Cloud sweatdropped. "Umm…ah…that is…it's not important right now!."

Sora glanced between Cloud and the dummy a few times. "…Riiiight…"

Blushing slightly, Cloud decided to change the subject. "How many keychains do you have on you, deshi?"

Sora blinked. "Why?"

"Just tell me how many"

"But why?"

"It's an important part of determining the strength of your attack, that's why."

Sora shrugged. "I never counted them before."

Cloud pinched the bridge of his nose in exasperation. "Then count them."

Sora blinked in surprise. "Well why didn't you just tell me to count them?"

Cloud froze. 'Must not facevault, it isn't dignified, must not facevault, it isn't dignified, …'

(5 minutes and a pile of keychains later…)

"I've got 42 keychains Cloud-sensei." Sora stated, proudly tossing the last of the slightly-larger then normal Keyblade Keychains on the pile.

Cloud stared in shock and awe for a moment. "By the Lifestream…" He muttered before shaking his head to clear his thoughts. "Impressive, deshi. Ultimate Weapon is only a composite of 7 blades, so I can only do a 10-hit combo. But you…if you master this move, You will be able to 1-hit kill most of the BBUs you come across, easily."

"Honto?!" Sora exclaimed. "Yatta!"

"Hey, hey, don't get too excited, gaki." Cloud interjected before Sora could start dancing around again. "The training for this maneuver is long and hard. You know, the type of stuff one might do to be an elite soldier. Even then it usually takes years."

Sora grinned. "Heellloooo, This is me you're talking about. Keyblade master, general hero, saved the worlds how many times now?"

Cloud blinked. "I…guess that would qualify…So, watch me closely now." Charging Ultimate Weapon with mana, Cloud knocked the typical training dummy (which looked suspiciously like Sephiroth) into the air with an upward slash.

(Elsewhere, that exact moment)

Sephiroth was strolling down an empty, non-descript hallway in an empty, non-descript palace when suddenly he was knocked into the air by an unknown force. "What the f?! That felt like Cloud-kun starting his Omniwhatsit!"

(Back to Cloud)

"Now for the important part!" Cloud yelled as the typical training dummy flew into the air. "You must disperse your mana into the rest of your weapons!" Cloud did so, charging the separate blades of Ultimate Weapon with his orange mana. "Then you use that mana to encircle the enemy!" Cloud stabbed his sword at the physics-defying typical training dummy and Ultimate weapon separated into it's seven core blades, the main of which Cloud held onto. The other six blades situated themselves in a rough circle around the floating typical training dummy.

(Sephiroth)

Six points of sword-shaped light surrounded the floating Sephiroth on all sides, with the original still on the ground. Sephiroth stared at them for a moment before sweatdropping and bracing himself. "…This won't end well…"

(Cloud)

"Now for the coup de gras!" Cloud leapt at the typical training dummy slashing through it, releasing his blade, and grabbing one of the encircling ones. He repeating this six times and on the seventh time, when all the blades were used and his afterimages floated in the air where he finished the slashes, he did an upper-slash, spun in the air above the dummy, gathering what mana was left, and striking the final blow as he fell gracefully to the ground. He landed in a crouch, stood, and caught the first Ultimate Blade as it fell, allowing the others to stick into the ground around him. The laws of physics finally kicked in and the typical training dummy fell to earth, none the worse for the wear.

(Sephiroth)

Sephiroth lay on the ground where he fell, smoking slightly and bruised all over. "…Itai…"

(Sora)

Sora stood in awe of Cloud (who was preening while trying not to look like he was preening). "Woooooooow….that was sweet! Do it again! Do it again!"

Cloud grinned. Beating the stuffing out of anything that looked like Sephiroth was therapeutic (for him, at least). "I would, But I need some time to rest between those." He leaned back against the wall, trying to look nonchalant as he winced. 'Damn, I'm out of shape. Really need to practice that more…' "Let's see what you can do."

Sora nodded and, with an enthusiastic scoop-and-flip that launched the typical training dummy into the air off the ground, he charged all 42 of his keychains with his glowing blue mana and commanded them with a motion to surround the typical gravity-defying training dummy.

(Sephiroth)

After being scooped into the air again, Sephiroth contemplated his fate. "I'm glad Cloud-kun is working off his residual anger but does he really have to do this twice in a row? At least he dind't teach…that…key..blade…brat?" The reason for Sephiroth's trailing off was the sphere of glowing keychains that had encircled him in the air. He paled as counted them. '-39, 40, 41, 42?!' "Oh, Jenova, this is gonna hurt."

The End

Well? What did you think? I leave the ending to your lovely imaginations. Comments and criticisms are very welcome here. Flames will be used to add to Sephiroth-san's torment. (Sephiroth: "He'll do it, too!") See ya'll later!
