I don't own crap-all of the stuff that went into this fic (blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda). No law suits please.
I've decided that I have too many characters, some of them are going to have to be killed off.
Apocalypse Now: Chapter 3
I blinked my eyes in the tiny ray of sunlight that had come through the crack in the drapes to land directly on my eyelid. As I looked around, I saw that there were people all over the floor of the house we were in. Everyone was there except Heather. I instinctively reached for my sword at the sight of the bodies lying listlessly on the ground. When my hand reached where the sword's grip should have been, it grasped a veritable cornucopia of nothing. I tried to calm myself and checked the pulse of one the people on the floor. TK's eyes opened and he looked at a point above and to the right of my head as he said "wathn't tat a grape parfy lass nighk, Tai?".
Now I remembered what happened, we had all come to Heather's house to spend the night and there just happened to be some whisky in the cellar. I remembered taking three drinks and trying to hit on Heather, the rest was a blank; but judging by how the people on the floor were paired off and there was an empty bottle in the middle of the floor, I assumed we had played a game of spin the bottle and it had gotten a bit out of hand. Before I could answer TK, he collapsed into a snoring heap.
When I got up, I felt a light touch on my shoulder and turned around to find myself looking into Heather's deep green eyes. As my eyes travelled down her body, I nearly fainted at what she was wearing. A silk bath robe that went down to her knees and was very loose was all that she had on. "You know, you were great last night" Heather said in a demure and seductive voice. I opened my mouth to say something but was quickly silenced by her hot, sensual lips pressing against mine. Before I could do anything to resist (not that I'd want to), she walked away saying, "there's bacon and hashbrowns cooking if you're hungry".
I sat down on the couch to stop myself falling off my feet. I suddenly realized how tired I was and slowly drifted into sleep as I wondered exactly what happened last night.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I shot off the couch and had the person who was stalking up on me in a stranglehold before he could call out and alert anyone who could be helping him. I realized that it was Cody I had in my arms and that he was trying impotently to break free as his face started to turn a dull purple. Cody started coughing and massaging his neck when I finally let go. "What was that for?" he asked, giving me an evil glare, "are you trying to kill me?"
"Of course not", I replied, helping Cody get back on his feet.
"Then I'll ask again, what was that for?"
"After serving in a high position of the military for a while, you start to ambush anyone who quietly walks by your bed while you sleep."
"You mean you were asleep and you still got me?"
"Yeah. This head-ache might have helped, though". I realized that I had a splitting head-ache. "It must have been those drinks I had last night"
"You were pretty crazy, you know. By the way, try not to go near Sephiroth today"
"What did I do last night?"
"Well..."
"Tell me"
"Umm..."
"Tell me!"
"Here comes Sora, she can tell you!". Cody ran off, wiping sweat from his forehead. Apparently, he didn't want to tell me what I did last night.
"Sora!". I walk over to her but decide not to ask her what happened because she started getting a faint pink colour in her cheeks as soon as she saw me. I guess everyone else remembered what happened, even TK. Maybe someone drugged my drink, if they did I should have smelled it. As I tried to think of a reason for calling to Sora, Sephiroth walked into the room and gave me a dirty look. Sora used the distraction to make a getaway and tell everyone to stay clear of the room me and Sephiroth were in.
I decide to ask Sephiroth what I did at the party, since as far as I knew, he had no emotions at all and wouldn't be embarassed. Sephiroth silences me with a hand held up in front of my face. "Last night you couldn't have fought me because you were intoxicated with that drink you called whisky. However, you insulted my honour and gave the customary challenge for a duel. You may choose the time that we duel, today or tomorrow. Prepare to die" Sephiroth walked out before I could try to argue. As soon as he went out the doorway, Belgarion, Richard, TK and Kari walked in from the hall.
"I just saw Sephiroth walk out the door, what'd he say to you?" Kari asked. I answered "something about choosing a time for our duel and preparing to die. So what exactly did I do last night?".
"Well, you drank a bit too much"
"yeah"
"And Sephiroth was kind of eyeing Heather"
"Hmm, I didn't think he could feel lust"
"Then you went to the bathroom, and Sephiroth moved in to try and get Heather"
"OK"
"Well, that was when you challenged him to a duel"
"That I don't understand. I'd rather have a barfight than a duel"
"Actually, Sephiroth sort of tricked you into a duel"
"How?"
"He said that he'd only fight you if it was a duel"
"So, he's trying to get rid of me so he can go after Heather without interference"
"I guess"
"So why does everyone blush when they see me?"
Kari blushed and lokked at the floor.
"See, just like that!" I said.
"Well..."
"Oh, just say it!"
"FirstyougotuponatableandlipsynchedtoElvisthenlateryoumoonedeveryone"
Kari ran off before I could ask her any more. I walked off to get drunk again so I wouldn't have to think about the coming duel. Maybe I could reschedule it to next week. I could fake a cold. I could drink myself into a stupor directly beforehand; apparently Sephiroth will only fight a fair fight. I definitely liked the drinking option. As I approached the stairs to the outdoor cellar, I saw Sephiroth sharpening his sword on a wet stone. I tried hard to hide my fear of the coming duel. Usually I fought in a battle of numbers, not of skill. I had known I'd have to fight the fair fight someday, but I hadn't thought it would come so soon.
When I opened the door to the cellar, I felt a burst of hot air (which is unusual for a cellar). A second later, Trunks and Yolei walked out. Yolei was trying to straighten her shirt while Trunks zipped up his jeans. I found the whisky as fast as I could and got out of there, hoping I wouldn't have long enough to find anything Trunks and Yolei left behind. As I headed for the door, I grabbed a bottle of rum because the whisky was only half full.
The second best place I could think of for drinking was the living room. However, as I walked in, Heather stopped me and said "don't start drinking now, you'll ruin your appetite. I'm going to make perogies tonight. Besides, you don't want to have a hangover for your duel". I decided that if I wasn't going to drink, I could at least sleep and laid down on the couch for a nap. As I looked out the window, I noticed the setting sun was very beautiful.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Sephiroth looks very suspicious', thought Puck as he floated behind Sephiroth, 'I wonder what he's up to'. Sephiroth was walking purposefully towards the woods. Sunset was just ending and Sephiroth looked very imposing and dangerous in the waning half-light. As he reached the edge of the woods, Sephiroth turned around to see if anyone was watching him and Puck was forced to dive for cover under a large tuft of field grass (Puck's about 6 inches tall and can fly, remember?). Puck stuck the top of his head out to check if Sephiroth had turned around yet; Sephiroth's back was just disappearing into the forest gloom.
Puck darted into the forest, where it would be easy to find cover between the trees. Sephiroth walked in a straight line, only turning to move around trees. While Puck chased his quarry, unseen eyes set in dark ooze watched them both traverse the forest.
Sephiroth stopped at a small clearing deep in the forest and drew his sword. As Sephiroth trained, Puck was mesmerized by the twirling blade. While puck was in his daze, Sephiroth slowly edged towards him. Before Puck realized what was happening, the back of Sephiroth's hand smote him like a thunderbolt splitting a tree. Almost faster than could be seen, Puck flew through the air and hit the trunk of an ancient maple tree, but didn't slide down. Puck stared in disbelief at the small branch that it seemed had grown out of a bloody hole in his stomach. When he looked up, all Puck saw was Sephiroth's face wearing a hideous grin. As darkness crept into the sides of his vision, Puck thought he saw an electric shock pass over Sephiroth's eyes...
