Hojo came back and looked at Sephiroth in disappointment.
"You're lucky that I need you for training today." Hojo growled
Sephiroth continued to look at his feet while Hojo scolded him for trying to escape. He wondered where the former lab assistant had gone.
"Are you listening to me, Sephiroth?" Hojo asked
"Yes, Sir."
"Good."
"Professor Hojo, I'm here to help you with your experiment." Hollander announced
"Ugh, they sent you." Hojo growled again
"Yes, seeming as though I no longer have anything to do."
"Fine."
Sephiroth looked at the two men with lab coats on standing in front of them. Two scientists in one room and the other wasn't Gast. Soon, they had forced him into a room where Shin-Ra infantrymen were standing.
"Seriously, we're gonna' fight a kid?" one complained
"Well, if I have to fight a kid to get more pay, I'll do it." Another sighed
"Guys, we better go easy on him, he only looks six."
Sephiroth stood with his sword as all the infantrymen closed in on him and he finally used Octoslash, something he had recently learned. One of the infantrymen was knocked down and his helmet fell off. He got up and charged at Sephiroth with a sword. Sephiroth fell and looked at the infantryman above him.
"Hey, Man, let him go, he's just a kid." His comrade scolded him
Sephiroth got up and instantly saw the room spinning as his knees buckled.
"Hey, I think you just knocked the kid out."
Sephiroth lay crumpled on the ground with a bruise on his forehead. But, when Hojo ran in to get him, the bruise was gone and he was conscious again.
"Good, Hollander, see what he can do?"
"Yes, very impressive."
Hollander left the room and Sephiroth was about to collapse. He tried to stay conscious and not fall on Hojo, but soon he lay asleep on Hojo's shoulder.
