Chapter 6

All Is One, One Is All

We reached level eighty. Before the door opened, I spoke.

"Get the gunblade," I ordered. "After that, we run." They gave a positive answer. There was a clunking, moving sound as the door slid open. Just as there was enough space, Atsumichi dashed through, flinging several kunai. He was followed by our militia, and more fire from Chief and I. Squall charged us, taking every shot in the chest. He lashed upward at me with his lethal blade. I immediately ceased fire and dodged to his left. Being cut would mean my life and I wanted to keep that. He turned toward me and raised his sword. But he didn't strike; instead took a large gash from his left shoulder down to his right hip from Roxas' flamberge. He unhitched his sword from Squalls innards and let him fall.

"Quick, before he respawns," I shouted, "Get the sword. Transfer data!"

He performed his usual, and the data moved to flash drive.

"ATTACK!!" Squall shouted, having returned. He ran forward, grabbing his sword, followed by the same Sephiroth and Lynx characters.

"Run for it," I said, "Out the window!" We took our dive out the same window hole I had made before. We all died, but it was better to respawn than to be gone forever. We all revived in our little happy places, myself on Besaid Beach, and then transported to the unfinished bar.

"I got the data," I said excitedly.

"Great," Hitomi replied.

"Where's Martin?" Vithen asked.

"Oh my God…" Roxas heaved. "I think they got him."

Immediately Atsumichi collapsed in despair.

"No…" Roxas sighed, "What will we tell Daniela?"

"I don't know," I replied, "But if we don't do anything, it could happen to millions more."

"That's right," an evil voice hissed. Squall dropped from the sky.

"Curtis!" Vithen growled.

"Very good," Squall applauded. "You've stolen my weapon's potency. You're smart; I'll give you that. Even I wouldn't have thought of using cyber-alchemy." He sneered. "But, nonetheless, your alchemist friend is dead and gone. So please… return my data, or share his fate." Without answering him, I shouted an order.

"GAG! Standard Formation Seven! Six-point Triforce!" Surprisingly, everyone followed my order. We charged him in a triangle formation with an extra person in between each point. We trapped him in the center and began revolving around him. He took several hits from the people around him, and when his back was to me, I jumped out and snapped his neck.

"You need a sword," Roxas laughed.

We set out toward the smithy. "So," I asked, "How'd you know that formation?"

"We're GAG! Founders," Vithen stated. "High Commander and Battle Commissar Vithen Dema the Lost Disciple."

"THE Vithen Dema!?" Chief belted in shock.

"Battle Sergeant Saturn Alchemist," Roxas added.

"This is so COOL!" Ryu exclaimed.

"Right, sure," Roxas said, "But first to the smithy. Kiriyu needs a blade." We walked three yards to the smithy and had a Ganondorf greatsword forged and gave the kid working there all we had, then saved our games immediately.

"Whoa, it's late," I said. "I'm out. Tomorrow, we'll install this virus to our weapons and destroy Curtis. I don't want to kill him, but…"
