Chapter 11: Crazy Things
At the gates of Olympus, Roxas was relaxing for a bit when he looked down, and to his horror, he saw the Titans approaching the mountain.
"Oh dear, we're in trouble!" Roxas called out as he rushed away. Roxas rushed to Zack and Aerith, who were relaxing as well, but they turned to him when he showed up.
"My lord and lady, the Titans have escaped, and they're practically at our blooming gates!" Roxas called out in distress.
"Sound the alarm!" Zack said quickly. "Launch an immediate counter attack! I need time to charged my Thunder Sword! Go Roxas! Go!"
"Gone sir." Roxas said calmly, a nasty habit of his during times like these.
Roxas rushed off calling on a horn he'd just grabbed.
Shada quickly made weapons for the gods as Leon quickly picked up his sword and got on a his chariot.
"Charge!" Leon called out, teamed with Axel and Iris. "On to battle!"
Axel used his own power to hold the Titans off as he sent a bolt of lightning to strike Titan of fire in the stomach, which pushed him back a few feet, but he still continued.
At the same time, the Titan of Wind roared, and a storm brewed up and sucked all the attacking gods into it.
"You old wind bag!" Axel called out as he was captured.

Far away, in Thebes, another battle raged.
"SORA!" The Cyclops called out. "WHERE ARE YOU?"
"What can we do?" An extremely skinny woman asked.
"Where's Sora?" An over-weight man asked in response.
"Yeah!" An extremely old man said as he pointed to a statue of Sora. "Sora will save us."
"SORA!" The Cyclops cried again. "COME OUT AND FIGHT ME!"
Sora sighed. He may not have his strength, but the people counted on him. He couldn't let them down.
"What are you doing?" Kairi called out as Sora walked towards the Cyclops. "Without your strength, you'll be killed!"
"There are worse things." Sora said. He'd loved Kairi, and she'd been using him from the start. Besides, what was the point of living anymore when both of his goals had died in one day?
"Wait, stop!" Kairi called out as Sora walked up to the Cyclops.
"So you are the mighty Sora?" The Cyclops asked with a laugh. He flicked Sora, and he flew into a wall.
"AH!" Sora called out. He was sure he felt something in his body break.

"No!" Kairi called out as she saw the attack. "What can I do?"
And at the momnet she heard a horse sound in the staples.
Kairi rushed to the stables to find Pegasus tied there in chains to a slab.
Pegasus did not wan anything to do with her.
"Oh, easy boy." Kairi said soothingly. "Just take it easy. Listen, Sora is in trouble."
Pegasus stop fighting to get away from Kairi, as she said those words. Once Kairi freed Pegasus he waited for the plan that Kairi had to save Sora.
"Sora's in trouble." Kairi repeated. "We've gotta find Tidus! He's the only one who can talk some sense into him."
Pegasus grab Kairi by the collor and threw her on his back, he ran to get out and flew into the air.
"OH MAMA…!" Kairi screamed as Pegasus flew off.

Back on Olympus, the battle wasn't going well at all.
"Get back, you!" Zack said as he attacked again, but they were coming too face for Zack to have enough time to power up with more thunder bolts. The gate suddenly broke to pieces as Titan of fire made a large hole for his fellow Titans.
"Zack…" Raviel said darkly.

At a dock to a boat that'd head for Tidus's island, Tidus was about to get on as a great storm brew, and the boat threatened to leave without him.
"Tidus!" Kairi called out as she arrived on Pegasus. "Tidus, Sora needs your help!"
"What's he need me for when he's got friends like you?" Tides said angrily.
"He won't listen to me." Kairi explained.
"Good!" Tidus shouted at her. "The guy's finally learned something!"
Pegasus then held him up by his jacket, which was easy as Pegasus was a good foot taller than Tidus.
"Look!" Kairi snapped. "I know what I did was wrong, but this isn't about me, it's about him! If you don't help Sora now Tidus, he'll die!"
Tidus's eyes widened when he heard that. He may have thought that Sora was a grade-a chump, but he couldn't risk Sora dying. He was his friend. Tidus knew what he had to do.

"I need more time!" Zack called out. "Get Vexen to release all the equipment he has!"
"Vexen's been captured sir." Roxas said quickly. "Everyone's been captured. I'm being captured right now."
It was true. At that moment, Roxas was captured by two small girls. One had short brown hair with a long pony tail in the middle of it ran down, and the other had long blond hair tied into a ponytail fill with many ponytails.
Suddenly, The Titans of wind and fire appeared and blew fire and wind at Zack as he suddenly began to get encased in stone.
"Zarky, I'm home!" Sephiroth called out tentatively as he walked out from almost nowhere and smirked.
"Sephiroth!" Zack said angrily as his shoulders were encased. "You're behind this!"
"You are correct sir!" Sephiroth said again as he leaned against a wall.

"Ha-ha-ha!" The Cyclops called out as Sora was knocked down again. Sora felt like he could barely move at this point. It was over.
"SORA!" Tidus called out as he arrived on Mahad with Kairi.
"Tidus?" Sora asked with a weak smile.
"Come on, pal, fight back." Tidus encouraged. "You can take this bum. He's a pushover. Just look at him."
"You were right all along, Tidus." Sora said weakly as he looked angrily at Kairi. "Dreams are for rookies."
"No way, man." Tidus countered. "Giving up is for rookies. I came back because I aint quitting on ya. I'm willing to go the distance. How 'bout you?"
Sora looked at Tidus and realized from Kairi being there that she went to get him. Maybe she really did love him. That and Joey's words were enough to get Sora to stand up one more time.
The Cyclops laughed as he grabbed Sora and picked him up.
"ME BITE OFF HEAD!" The Cyclops said triumphantly as Sora grabbed a burning piece of wood that was on a roof top he just passed and flung it into the Cyclops' eye, causing it to scream and drop Sora.
"YEAH BABY!" Tidus called out from the side lines.
Thinking quickly, Sora grabbed some rope and rushed around and between the Cyclops' legs tying them up as with a great tumble, the Cyclops lost his balance and fell over a cliffside to his death with a loud boom!
As Sora looked, there was a crack of something.
"SORA LOOK OUT!" Kairi shrieked as she pushed Sora out of the way of a falling pillar that landed right on her.
"KAIRI, NO!" Sora screamed. Even though he knew it was hopeless, he gripped the pillar and tried to pick it up when suddenly, bit by bit, the boulder seemed less heavy and suddenly, miraculously, he picked it up.
"What's going on?" Sora asked.
"Sephiroth's deal is broken." Kairi gasped. "He promised I wouldn't get hurt."
"Kairi…" Sora said as he knelt down in front of her. "Wh- Why did you-?"
"People always do crazy things when they're in love." Kairi said weakly as she smiled.
"Kairi… Kairi I… I didn't mean to-" Sora began before Kairi cut him off.
"Are you always this articulate?" Kairi said with a smile as Sora remembered when he'd saved her from the centaur. "Look, you don't have much time. You can still stop Sephiroth."
"I'll watch over her, 'Sor." Tidus assured Sora.
"You're going to be alright." Sora said calmly to Kairi. "I promise."
Sora then jumped onto Pegasus's back as they flew off to Olympus. Sephiroth's little game had just gone into overtime.
"Let's go, Pegasus!"
Me: Wait, why are we stopping here?
Namine: Because it's getting late.
Me: Aw…
Namine: Don't aw me, young lady.
Xion: Ha-ha. Whipped.
