The two contestants eyed one another over the battlefield. Vincent's metal hand twitched slightly. Yuffie's eyes narrowed.

"You can't have it," Vincent growled.

"Bite me, demon boy," Yuffie hissed.

Oblivious of the tension, Cloud whistled as he put down the teapot right in front of the highly debated territory.

Both opponents dashed for the honey simultaneously.

"No!" Cid screamed as he saw the breakfast table explode into a mayhem of flying cheese, levitating bread, splattering butter and - *Oh, Holy, not again!

"Oh, yeah? Well, you lick your share off Cid!" Yuffie kicked him in the shins.
