review. Thanks.







The next day...

The sun was shining in the morning when Barret and Nanaki left their grounds to
head back home. The trip to Midgar was canceled. The Younger Cub died. He was left
the way he was when Nanaki saw him. It was best to leave him like that.

The skies were voicing their anger that day through the rumbling of thunder as the
afternoon slowly progressed to night. Barret and Nanaki had been there discussing about
the recent events. Nanaki clearly saw his grandson regretted what he did to his late
younger brother. He warned Barret, though. Now there was nothing left to do about it.
The area around Midgar would be too wet from the raining. The thunderstorm had not
even started yet, and both creatures still did not find shelter.
"Damn. No hollow logs or caves around here."
"What do you expect? This place has been destroyed for five centuries."
They continued walking exchanging small comments here and then. Their
footprints were set deeply in the wet mud. All the vile creatures around them has found
shelter in various caves they built. Nanaki was planning to raid one of the built caves and
kill the creature. Barret did not know about this plan yet. And with that, they walked
around the area, looking for any form of shelter.
Meanwhile, thunder was striking down every four seconds and the sky kept
rumbling with each crash of lightning. Flashes were being give off by the seconds. The
wind was picking up and actually ripping off branches off trees. The clouds moved
quickly around each other as they gave out their supply of much-needed rain to the Planet.
Raindrops were bombing the Planet, creating some of the deepest mud puddles you have
seen. This was the thunderstorm.

Nanaki led out a roar as a giant bolt crashed near them and strike a tree log on fire.
The tree log tipped over in it's shimmering state and fully caught on fire now. Each
speckle of flame seemed to whimper when the raindrops hit it. As quick as the tree caught
on fire, the fire died. This was one hell of a thunderstorm. Barret and Nanaki hid under
the burnt tree log, still releasing smoke from the embers on its wood. This thunderstorm
would not stop at all. In fact, it seemed to gather strength with each raindrop that crashed
itself upon the muddy land. Nanaki sensed something. The adolescent Barret was still too
young to sense entities around the environment, but Nanaki was not. He sensed
something big. A creature? No, any creature would be afraid of a thunderstorm of this
caliber. A huge shrill could be heard off in the distance.
"What the hell?"
"What, grandpa?"
"What kind of beast has a roar like that?"
Barret listened closely for the roar. All of a sudden, a roar echoed through the
skies as Barret and Nanaki crouched. Giant footsteps could be heard closely. Whatever
this creature was, it is huge. Its footsteps sent huge shocks throughout the surrounding
land. Smaller creatures could be seen running off into the distance. It let out another
earth-shattering roar as the thunderstorm continued it's vicious assault. A thunderous
roar echoed through the angry sky as raindrops kept pouring from the clouds. This
creature was near Barret and Nanaki. They both shuddered as the roar traveled through
the air and into their ears. This was not your regular creature. It was causing the
thunderstorm. The thunderstorm continued getting more violent as the creature neared.
Finally, it reared its ugly head. The gigantic monster bellowed through the clouds
as it lowered its head to survey the rough area. The eyes were really two huge purplish
crystals. The mouth was really a long, metallic beak. It's claws were about the length of
Nanaki. On the top of it's head were indents. From the indents jutted a spike-like object.
The face was all metal. From those crystallized eyes were little eyeballs looming about. It
let out one roar that nearly blew Nanaki and Barret away.
"Weapon...Weapon...but how?" Nanaki asked to himself.
"Huh? Weapon? The Planet-made creature? Impossible!" Barret roared at his
grandfather.
"No, it's exactly like the other Weapons except this one resembles a bird, I bet."
"Every Weapon died in the Apocalyptic Era."
"Apparently, the Planet made a new Weapon."
"What the hell for? The humans are gone!"
Just then, the Weapon bowed its head to look at the two frightened creatures. It's
eyeballs rolled around lazily in it's crystallized eyes.
"Oh, crap, it's lookin' at us."
"Yes, I can tell."
The Weapon snarled at the two tiger-like creatures and sprouted wings.
"Oh shit!"
Weapon then flew right into the sky, revealing its whole body to Nanaki and
Barret, which was previously covered by its wings. It had a bird body except for a huge
spiked tail in the back and two humanish arms near it's face. The huge monstrosity passed
them by. The two creatures sighed thinking they were safe for now. Safe for now. Until
both of them saw the tail crashing down on them. The tail cracked open the land, sending
pieces of the land and rocks flying about. Nanaki was sent flying by Weapon's tail,
landing in a barren area. A part of his paw was missing. The red liquid oozed from the
severed paw. Nanaki yelped from the pain. He licked the missing part, hoping to alleviate
it, only to get blood into his mouth. The blood quickly sticked to his throat as he was
desperately coughing. He opened his eyes to look for his grandson, not finding him
anywhere. After about several seconds, he went back to tending to his painful paw.

Weapon circled around the ruins that was Midgar. His wings were so enormous,
that one wing alone covered the ruin. Creatures were desperately running for cover in the
ruins. The thunderstorm was at its fullest. The giant howled to the skies as thunder came
crashing down to various parts of Midgar. Some of the buildings were on fire. He looked
around the area again, surveying it. After his survey was done, his two humanish arms
went to grab the spike-like object resting on the top of his head. With a firm grip, he
pulled the spike-like object out of his head. As the object came out, the bottom extended
down toward the Weapon's talons. The object was a huge spear. His humanish arms held
it tightly while his lazy eyeball looked at the weapon. The time was up. Midgar is going
to be gone. He pointed the spear at Midgar and held that position for about several
minutes. The clouds gather around it and lightning crashed onto the spear. The spear
started collecting the electrical energy. A huge ball of energy was forming off the tip of
the spear. His arms started rumbling as more energy was being collected and the energy
ball started getting bigger. Parts of land were being lifted up into the energy ball. Trees
were being lifted up into the energy ball. Creatures were being lifted up into the energy
ball. Lightning kept crashing onto the spear and were being transmitted to the tip, straight
into the energy. The energy finally got to the point where it was bigger than the ruins of
Midgar. Perfect size. Weapon shot the gigantic ball and it went crashing down into
Midgar.
Everything was up in flames as a huge explosion has ringed out. Fire has engulfed
everything in the ruins as the Weapon surveyed the area again. The environment around
him was up in flames. He saw creatures being burned to death. Trees roasted to a crispy
black. Dirt was sending off heavy amounts of smoke. He rotated his head to look at
Midgar. His mission was accomplished. He annihilated Midgar on the Planet's behalf.
His breathtaking wings started swooping as he turned around and trekked back the way he
came from.
He was gone and the fire was still blazing in its fury.

The morning after...

The fire was gone. Birds looked at the destruction. Nothing was left
except one huge hole. Birds started flying to the hole and peered in. Deep in the hole,
there was a greenish river flowing rapidly.
