Final Fantasy 7-#17

Turn tables turn! Turn!

Part seven in the Nintendo Strikes Back Saga

Written by Gabe Ricard

Disclaimer: While I may wish otherwise the only character I own is my blatant tribute to Mary Sue…Gabe so don't sue me.

Something to note here is that this particular FF7 story is probably the shortest one I'll ever write. My original intention was to just lump this in with part six or even part eight but decided that after all the 5000 word plus episodes that have been published thus far a short part to move the plot along faster was in order. Anyway, sit back and enjoy.

"THIS…is entertainment!" Mario stuffed some popcorn in his mouth and continued to watch the varied screens that depicted the fates of all the heroes with Dr. Wily standing at his side also watching. He turned to Alice Cooper, "But still…I worry a bit. It seems like some of them are managing to escape from the predicaments you set for them."

Alice shrugged, "Don't worry. They're all going to be relocated in about," he looked down at his watch, "Twenty minutes."

"You thought of everything didn't you?" Mario chuckled. This had turned out to be far more enjoyable then simply wiping them all out.

"Everything. So, what's next for you once they're dead?"

"Well…we're going to destroy the rest of Playstations cornerstones and once that's done we may move on to Microsoft and Sega. We don't really see either of them as a threat."

"So, I guess it's pretty much smooth sailing for you then?"

"Pretty much,"

"Not quite freakmunkey."

"What the hell?" Mario and Alice both looked to the door to see Tosha standing in the doorway.

"Who the fuck are you?" demanded Alice.

"Names Tosha."

"How did you get past security?" asked Mario.

"That's not important. What is important is that your fun ends here and now." For the moment Alice, Mario and Dr. Wily (Courtney wasn't there) anger and confusion were replaced with howling laughter. They didn't stop for several minutes and Tosha stood politely waiting for them to finish.

"How do you plan on stopping our 'fun' as you call it?" inquired Wily.

"Oh, it's pretty simple. You should have seen it coming yourself uhh…damn what's your name again?"

"Dr. Wily."

"Yeah that's it! Anyway, you should have seen this coming…I mean it's not like you even invented this yourself right?"

Mario's eyes widened, "You didn't?!"

"Well…um…I…you see…"

Tosha smiled and pulled out a cube similar to the one Mario and the others had, "Nope…got the idea from 90 year old drunk outside Food Lion in Waverly Virginia. All he really did was figure out who had the fan fic authors power. "See, a while ago Gabe was paranoid this would happen some day since he was trapped in Waverly for a time and had a box too. so he gave this to me and told me to keep in case of an emergency. To the surprise of no on I'm pretty sure he forgot about the whole thing."

"So what do you plan to do?"

"Well…I plan to take the power back. Destroy your box and just to be sure, kill the old guy. Then, we're going to bring everyone back and destroy you. Finally, we're going to destroy the fan fic authors power forever. Any questions?"

"Um…nope."

"Good! Let's get started." Tosha held up the box whispered something under her breath but just as the power was leaving Alice had presence of mind with his power to destroy both boxes causing the power to simply disappear in moments before it was all consumed by Tosha's box. Granted, he could have done something like destroy only Sarah's box but his fear of death.

"Ha!" Mario had jumped from his seat and was striding towards Tosha.. "You can't destroy us now OR bring back the others! You failed!" Mario was now racing with ideas as to how to make this little bitch pay.

"I kinda saw this coming," smiled Tosha walking backwards to avoid Mario laying her hands on her. "It's a good thing I was able to act fast enough to bring the guys back in the four or so seconds there was fan fic authors power in that box…oh and the old guys dead."

"You didn't bring them back!"

"Check."

"No." Mario folded his arms and very much resembled a young, spoiled child.

"Okay pudgy…have it your way."

"Wily check." Dr. Wily nodded and briskly walked over to the window peering out and seeing a very confused looking group of heroes. He gulped and felt the color draining out of him.

"Mario?"

"What?!"

"I-I'm afraid you need to take a look at this." Mario stormed over to the window and after shoving Wily aside looked out, straining his eyes.

"Son of a bitch! How the hell did you do that so fa-" Mario turned around determined to get an explanation from this mystery girl who had in moments ruined his life but, saw that she was gone. "W-where the hell did she go?"

Alice shrugged, "Oh she left."

"And you didn't stop her?!"

"Why the hell should I? I'm on my way out. Have fun," Alice slowly pulled himself from his chair and walked towards the door with his cattle prod leaning on his shoulder.

"Get back here! you can't leave!"

"Watch me," moments later, Alice was out of view.

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" Mario created a fireball in his left hand and threw it at the wall burning it to ash in seconds.

Meanwhile…

"Who the hell are you?" asked Cid the first to notice her.

"Tosha?" Gabe couldn't believe she was here. "What are you doing here."

"Saving your ass's, remember the box you gave me."

Gabe was silent for a moment then his eyes widened in sudden recollection, "Oh yeah! Well thank god you're here!"

"Welcome."

"So, is Mario gone?" questioned Billy.

"No. Look, the ships are still up there."

"Which means…. We still have to take these bastards on."

"Should we head to the mansion and get them to come after us?" suggested Bruce.

"Sure…haven't done THAT yet," said Fei sarcastically.

"I got a call to make anyway," interjected Austin. "Might help us out."

"Fine. Let's go."

The mass of people slowly began to walk towards the mansion. One thing was on all their minds. It wasn't as if the thought was being transferred from person to person but it was a sinking feeling by all that the final battle was on the horizon.

End.

Short huh? Barely checks it with 1000 words. Anyway, the next two will be huge compared to this one and fairly chaotic. They'll also be up very, very soon so keep an eye open and thanks for reading.
