A/N Here we go! What awaits Kratos in this new plane? Find out!!!!
GOD OF WAR:FATES' DECREE
Kratos stared at the door that stood on his platform. Air rushed by him, making his torn tunic flop in the wind. He grunted and placed his hand on the handle of the door. Kratos could feel an immense power emanating from it. He turned the knob and was immediately sucked into the door. The door slammed shut behind him. Kratos plummeted through the skies and into a mountainous hole within the earth. Enveloped in darkness, Kratos fell through the pit. He could hear the faint sounds of a battle raging as he kept falling. A bright, green light began to show from the bottom of the pit, illuminating the bottom. As he was falling he could see a group of warriors battling fierce monsters of all shapes and sizes. He fell rapidly so he could not make out who they were but instead continued on through the brightness and landed on a floating piece of rock. He bounced off and rolled off of it, landing on another one. He staggered up and took a look around. A stream of green blue was slowly converging and rolling below him, causing the bright light to shine. He could feel a great power coming from this light.
"What manner of devilry is this," he said to himself.
He saw that there were other platforms leading down and so he began to descend the area, hopping from one platform to the next. As he continued down, the wind became harsher and more violent and the environment became cold. As he descended, he found that the bright, swirling blue-green mass dissipated into blackness. At the center of it was a large red rock in the shape of a heart with a bright, white light emanating from it.
"And so you've come," a voice said calmly, echoing through the vastness.
Kratos drew his blades.
"Who is out there! Show yourself!!"
He looked around, assuming a defensive stance and prepared for anything. Just then a dark figure appeared to be floating in the light. Kratos took a step back as a rush of what felt like pure evil surged forward against him. The figure floated up from the light and landed softly upon the rock platform. He had long, flowing silvery white hair, he stood a full 6'5'', and wore a large, black trench coat with black pants and boots. He looked up at Kratos with green eyes, a yellow tint fading in and out of them.
"The Sister's of Fate told me of you."
Kratos grit his teeth.
"Did they tell you that I had destroyed them too?!"
The man smirked.
"They told me you were a worthy adversary and also one that should be eliminated."
He brought his right hand in an arc in front of him and clenched his fist. Suddenly, a long blade, over 7ft in length appeared in his hand. Kratos' eyes went wide for a moment when he saw the blade. The mysterious man held it pointed out towards Kratos with only one hand.
"Who are you," Kratos demanded.
The mysterious man smirked.
"I am Sephiroth and I will show you true strength God of War."
And with that spoken, Sephiroth shot forward and, with a mighty kick, launched the Spartan off the platform he was on and smashed through one and onto another. Kratos grunted from the blow and by the time he stood up, was already blocking Sephiroth's mighty attacks. Kratos dropped to a knee as he blocked each sword attack with his own blades. Kratos rolled backwards and flung both blades at Sephiroth. Sephiroth jumped into the air and brought his sword down at Kratos. Kratos brought both blades back and blocked the downward strike. Then he kicked Sephiroth in the stomach. The Ancient moved back one pace and renewed his assault. Kratos was slowly being pushed back as he was matching Sephiroth's attacks. Then the Spartan's foot stepped back on nothingness. Kratos turned, saw no ground and looked back at Sephiroth, who delivered a haymaker with his left hand, sending Kratos spiraling off the platform. The Spartan threw his blades out, latching them into the rock. He then used his movement to swing himself back onto the platform in front of Sephira, driving both feet into him. Sephira flew off the platform into the dark. Kratos stood there and pulled his blades back to himself. He continued to peer at the darkness, waiting for the Ancient to return. His slowed his breathing to being calm.
"Know your place Kratos"
Suddenly the platform broke apart and Kratos flew off the rubble. He saw the dashing figure of Sephiroth going through the platform, sword brought forward. Kratos landed on his feet on another platform as Sephiroth landed on it gracefully. He smiled evilly.
"I will kill you silver haired demon," shouted Kratos.
Sephiroth held his left hand out and a large pillar of fire erupted in front of Kratos. Kratos took a step back and Sephiroth jumped through it and swiped at him. Kratos barely dodge, but the blade dug it's head into the flesh of his left arm. The blade was hot and seared his flesh. Kratos gave a yell and attempted to attack Sephiroth.
"Aero," Sephiroth said coldly.
A large wind enveloped Kratos and fired him into the air. He went spiraling and launched his blades into another platform. He swung to safety and got up onto it. Then he looked down at Sephiroth, who held a large red orb in his hand.
"What magic is this," Kratos said to himself.
Sephiroth held his hand up high.
"Firaga," he spoke softly.
A large ball of flames launched from his hand. Kratos jumped at it, both blades out. He swiped at the ball and launched it back at Sephiroth. The ball hit him, but was absorbed into his body. Kratos landed on the platform and attempted to attack the evil one. He launched the blades out at Sephiroth. Sephiroth ducked and swiped his sword, cutting the chains and sending the blades flying into oblivion. The remaining chains fell limply to the ground and Kratos' eyes were filled with rage.
"Without your weapons, you're nothing," Sephiroth said coldly.
"Fool! I need not the weapons of Gods to defeat you," Kratos roared back.
Kratos ran at Sephiroth, who quickly charged a ball of electricity in his left hand.
"Thundaga," he said smoothly again, as a large series of lightning bolts launched from his hand and into Kratos.
The Spartan dropped to his knees, taking the full force of the blast. He grit his teeth and took the unbearable pain, his skin becoming dark and beginning to smoke. Suddenly it came to him. He wrapped a loose chain around his hand and launched it a Sephiroth, wrapping it around his sword. The charge immediately passed through Kratos and into the sword, shocking Sephiroth. Kratos then threw the other chain and wrapped it around Sephiroth's left arm, more electricity pouring into him. Sephiroth took the shocks, his body shaking from the surge. Then a mighty blast erupted between them and Sephiroth was thrown off the platform and Kratos pushed onto his back on the platform. Sephiroth's masamune blade was on the ground, bits of lightning coming off of it. Kratos stood up, saw the blade, and immediately snatched it up. He looked over the edge at Sephiroth, standing below him. Kratos took a running leap off the edge, with the blade pointing down, and dropped upon Sephiroth, the blade piercing his body and running straight through him. Sephiroth grunted and shut his eyes in pain. Kratos sneered and twisted the blade within him.
"Take that, wretched filth," he said, forcing the blade in deeper.
Sephiroth then opened his eyes and smiled at Kratos. Then, with lightning speed, Sephiroth had Kratos in a death hold, hand around his neck and holding the Spartan high. He then tossed the Spartan aside and pulled the sword from his body. The sword dissipated as Sephiroth turned, laughing at Kratos.
"God of War, you have not won yet. In fact," he said removing his coat and revealing his flesh beneath it, rippling with heavy muscle, "I would say, you're outclassed."
Kratos stood up, ripped the chains off of his gauntlets and stared down this new adversary.
"We shall see who is truly outclassed," Kratos replied.
The two stood facing one another. Then, as if an invisible bell had rung, Kratos ran at Sephiroth.
