Side A: Darkness asunder.
They clashed sparks flying no regard for the others safety they swung again countering each other effortlessly Sora met his blade head on Genesis shut him back with a burst of flames and stared at him with…a superior smirk and a glint of evil intent in his eyes
"You must not want to lose her, I admire that…but my flames will extinguish that conviction you have, nothing will be left!" Genesis shouted as he rushed the brunette
"I WON"T LOSE TO YOU….CHAOS LETS DO THIS!" Sora shouted as he rushed his eternal enemy the dark energy encased him in a protective aura as he clashed blades with the flaming demon again
"For you...I'll fight until my last breath…for you I'd-"
"Uh…" Reno…for the most part was completely beside himself, he was looking on the fight with a bit of worry
"I mean…do we help or…I mean wouldn't that be offensive to hit them?" He asked aloud
"We'd be going against orders" Rude said monotonously
"Yeah but…we can't hit girls" Tseng said softly holding his gun trying to aim at one of the women
"We hit those Sephiroth clones…they were close enough right…?" Rude suggested
"Yeah but…they didn't have...well you know" Reno hinted
"No, what?" Rude asked confused
"Oh c'mon, Tseng you know what I mean, don't you?" Reno shouted a bit annoyed
The black haired man just looked at him with a blank stare
"THE DIFFERENCE IS THEY HAVE BOOBS!"
Silence entered the room; Rude looked at his counterpart and then caught on and looked at the females in front of him
"…You idiot." Rude said softly as he let his headrest on his palm
Blades constantly connecting in what seemed to be a never-ending cycle for the two, Weiss didn't intend to slow down any time soon and it seemed as though his power was increasing, he finally seemed as though he had reached his limit of toying and decided to change the flow of things.
"Boring..." he whispered Riku's eyes went wide he as Weiss sent Tidus flying Riku was about to call to the blonde but was met with Weiss's katanas hacking away at his defense the only real chance he had at getting away to catch his breath and to think was if Tidus got up from his sudden knock out.
"I...may no other choice but to rely on it"
Riku finally pushed the phantom swordsman back and called forth his true strength
"I'll show you, the way to dawn!" Riku shouted a new keyblade formed in his left hand half white half black half of it had a white aura the other half black; he clashed again with a renewed fighting spirit.
He was on even ground until Weiss decided it'd be fun to shoot himself up with his true strength.
"I'm afraid, I won't be taken do as easily as you hoped!" He shouted
"It doesn't matter how easily I thought this would be or not! I will win, for everyone!" Riku shouted as he rushed Weiss again using an unfamiliar power even to himself.
"When you fight for those you love your power will grow...
"TEN FOLD!" Riku shouted as his became nothing but pure energy of light and darkness he slashed Weiss over and over As Riku brought up his blades for one final strike balls of light struck the phantom swordsman repeatedly, with the finale of Riku piercing him with his blades.
"Seems you had, some time to shine, didn't you Tidus?" Riku smirked
"Of course! But I need to hurry up and get to Sora, he'll need my help," Riku's hand reached out and stopped the blonde speed demon
"That isn't your fight," Riku said softly
"But, if we don't help him, it could be" Tidus retaliated as he rushed off, Riku in tow
"Damn it Tidus!" Riku shouted as he ran after the blonde superstar
"I...will never vanish" Weiss whispered
Cloud wasn't having the best fight of his life Sephiroth wasn't an easy opponent this was incredibly true, especially in this case.
He was a mad man attacking everything he sent Zack flying with what seemed like white blood flowing all over the place Cloud was covered in slices and cuts you'd think he was a birthday cake. Aerith was doing her best to heal Zack while Cloud defended himself even if he was o one knee, Zack took the blunt of almost all the damage, Sephiroth wasn't even smirking he had a full blown smile of superiority.
"It seems…you'll be the one to stay in my memory… Cloud" Sephiroth had a look of ecstasy as he raised his blade to strike down his eternal enemy. He was about to do it, finally after so long…kill him finally take what he wanted to ride this world like a vessel with his mother and conquer everything although through his reveling he felt something in his gut, something sharp, A staff was through his mid section he looked down almost in shock.
"Let's…finish this CLOUD!" Zack shouted almost on cue the onslaught of a dual omni slash began and the silver haired swordsman could do nothing but feel himself drift from this world to the next. The final strike broke through the floor below just as Tidus and Sora made it to the second floor.
"Guess we made them angry?" Tidus asked aloud and Riku instantly dead panned
"You have to go on, without us Cloud," Aerith said with a small smile
"But…what about you two?" He had a small amount of worry in his voice
"You know…out of everyone who had, for some reason fallen for me I think the one I was the most saddest to be away from…was you" She said softly
"What…do you mean?" Cloud asked
"It's up to him, now isn't it?" Zack asked
"Yeah, I guess it is" Cloud said softly looking toward the roof"
"He's a lot like you, you know?" Aerith said with a gleam in her eyes
"Like both of you I can see why, she loves him" She smiled
"Oh what are you saying you'd fall for him too?" Zack joked
Silence, nothing but a small smile formed on her lips Zack's smile vanished
"I pray, you can do what none of us could, for her, for everyone you care for-"
"Aerith…?" A voice invaded her thoughts
"You, can hear me!?" She giggled a bit
"Our hearts are connected…right" She smiled softly
"How…are you holding up?" She asked softly seemingly worried
"He's…stronger than I assumed, but so far I'm doing fine, I can't lose, I have someone to save, someone to go back to," Sora didn't let a drop of childish-ness enter his voice, he was completely – dead – serious
"You – no matter what, you can't die, you know that right? If you do-"
"I won't come back, I don't care if I do or I don't its for her…I've already died once for her, once more won't be any different" To Aerith, he wasn't the same boy she knew the naive child she knew full of hope and happiness, he was a man. – A man who would go to any length to save someone, to save a planet.
"You…really have surpassed them, both of them, Sora," Aerith whispered her smile got bigger
"I love you, Sora, save them, not just for Yuffie, not just for the friends you made, not just for me, but for everyone!" She clasped her hands together in a prayer fashion as her body dematerialized,
"…I will, Aerith."
"Finally done letting the worry sink in?" It'll be over; soon it'll all be over, for everything!"
Cloud walked over to Zack's motionless form he was still staring lifelessly into the ceiling above,
"Isn't…this…just …nostalgic…." Zack whispered in between breaths
"You saved me before, and you did it all over again…" Cloud felt a lack of ability in his fight and was now feeling it even worse now
Sora kept striking against genesis over and over parrying everything he could with everything he had. But it seemed futile.
"You know what's funny, even though…I'm fading away again, I know, this time will be alright,"
Sora finally landed a cut on Genesis's shoulder the look on his face almost shocked, but it just excited him even more
"What do you…?"
"He'll defeat him, he wouldn't let himself go down unless he was completely out classed, he'll find away,"
Sora was sent back from an explosion of flames, Genesis, went airborne
"That kid, You may be my living legacy, but that kid, he's something else, he's surpassed anything I'd become, and become something I'd give anything to see…but it seems-"
Sora drew the Fenrir and Hydra's love and rushed Genesis pushing chaos to the max he levitated and forced Genesis over the city below, as he kept a letting barrage of attacks at the red demon.
"He'll be the light that guides this world…to a better tomorrow. A better future for everyone – I think…for the first time I can truly see the light waiting for me. The light I always turned away from, I think I can finally accept things for what they are…and take my first step in the right direction, after everything Sora showed me the way to go, even after all my bitterness he still…"
I summon you…OMEGA BAHAMUT," Genesis shouted
"He still chose to be by your side, you may have lost us but you gained something invaluable something…worth keeping
A Family…Light.
