Author's Note:
Well, well, what do we have here? Wanna see Diablos in actione' without wastin too much
time, eh? Or are you just reading this to see how this one plays through?... Either
way, this is Mission B, to summon him early in a weaker form while wiping out the storm,
and will hopefully have the storm gone before he can gain enough strength. Anyway, let's move
on with Mission B.. Oh, and don't forget; The scenes of Yuffie and Vince change with each
Chapter as a collective bonus for those of you whom take the time to see all three alternate
missions. Put'em together with Episode 10's V/Y scene for a full date. Ingenious,
ain't I? :P

[Between the Lines]
[Episode 9; The Mako Mission]
[Version B; Clash Against the Storm]
Time: Vincent and Yuffie have made their way to Corel. Cloud and the others have loaded
up their old and absolutely best weaponry. Reeves was overloaded with weaponry of various
types; Reno held his shockstaff thingy, which was upgraded to a severely strong version;
Rude, no matter what his past weapon was (I forgot x_x), now sports a powerful rifle.
Elenor, despide her old weapon choices (read the above note), now strikes down foes with
an insanely strong Missile Launcher. Yep, I gave a woman a good weapon, get over it you
evilish-type guys and just be glad your girlfriend/fiance/wife don't have anything near
that strong; And by the way, NEVER underestimate the brute force of cast iron frying
pans. Princess TOadstool can kick butt with one on Mario RPG, a fine game if you ask me.
And last, Tseng sports a double-edged energy blade! Darth Maul, baby!
The skyship slowly rose into the air then took off towards Nibelheim. In only a short
amount of time, the dark clouds of the Mako Storm appeared in the distance - And not too
far off was a gargantuous war-airsip with a navy-blue paintjob and the body of an old-timey
pirate ship and huge thruster engines on the back; Kyra's own Airship Nautilus, the most
powerful military ship on the face of the Planet. "Well, I now officially take back any
disbeliefs of THAT ship surviving the storm.." muttered Reeves in admiration as the Highwind
came to a halt, hovering in the air. Reeves pulled out the handy ol' PHS. "Alright, elite
forces, ShinRa's finest pilots, get the airship fleet ready for battle and move up here ASAP.
The Mako Storm needs to be dealt with NOW!"
Precisely 75 smaller-than-the-Highwind Airships slowly rose into the air, special
Mako-byproduct-draining radiators equipped on them much like a shield as they took off
at a blinding speed.
Meanwhile, let's take a peek at what Vincent and Yuffie were doing, as it will take a while
for the slow-as-molasses-in-winter scenes to advance (unless you WANT me to blabber on
senselessly about water, fishes, and scenery!)....
Yuffie walked out of the transport that lead back to the main room, dragging Vincent
by the cape and leading him towards the battle arena. "Come on, Vinnie, I haven't fought
in sooooo long!" muttered Yuffie, dragging the poor guy up the stairs - by the way, I mean
LITERALLY dragging him by the cape, he'd given up struggling by now. Vincent leaned up to look
where he was being dragged and instantly jumped back to his feet before she could bash his
head into the bottom step. "Alright already, I'm up!" Vincent snapped. Yuffie laughed as
she skipped up the stairs. Vincent sighed. 'oh well.. it's a battle arena... can't be too
horribly bad..' He looked up and read a sign that said, "NEW MONSTERS!!" and started to
lose confidence in his previous thought as Yuffie dragged him into the Battle Arena, which
also had a sign that said:

(BacK To the StorM)
Everyone stared, mixed emotions filling their minds; It was awesome to see a ship
attempt to survive against a storm THAT powerful, but at the same time, if it did
survive, they were in for the fight of their lives. While it may not be as powerful
as Meteor had been, it could still do some serious damage - And Aeris and the Lifestream
and Holy had brought an end to Meteor, they hadn't had to defeat it themselves. THere was
a flash of purple light as the deadly airship Nautilus broke into the vicious Mako Storm,
bolts of lightning bashing up against the warship. THe blackness of the storm consumed
the ship..
"Well that's it they're gone!" Cid said cockily, pulling out a bottle of wine. "Let's
celebrate!"
Meanwhile, aboard the Nautilus Bridge..
"Kyra, sir, the ship's shield generators are quickly overheating!" yelled one of
the pilots on a transmission screen in the president's room. "At this rate-"
"Where.. is... the materia?" Irvine Kyra asked, tension building in his voice. The
pilot gulped. "E-ehrm... i-it's right near us... sir... should we send out the sorceror
to summon ih-"
"YES!!" bellowed Irvine (not to be confused with Irvine Kineasis of FF8).
Everyone in the Skyship paused from their conversation as a sickening explosion could
be heard. Everyone gazed at the black cloud, wondering what would happen next.. Then, slowly,
something began rising out of the clouds.. "NOW!!" Reeves roared into his PHS. "Open fire!!
Drain all of that Mako as fast as you possibly can!!" The fleet of airships shot into the
storm, resisting the power of it as they began draining it. Suddenly, that 'something' that
was halfway risen out of the smokey storm spread a pair of demonic wings, roaring into the
sky hideously, glaring coldly with red, glowing eyes at the fleet that was draining his
source of power. Diablos rose his arms into the sky, purple bolts spiraling up them as he
brought them down; A chunk of storm near one of the small cruiser airships split as the
airship was slammed to the ground with a wave of Demi (or Gravity) magic, bashing it into
the ground as two more around it met the same fate. This demon was wiping out ships fast, but
the Mako Storm was also dying out faster. Soon, after all but ten ships had fallen (not including
the Highwind), the only black Mako Storm smoke came from the generator below as some ex-Kyra
executives landed to shut it off. Diablos laughed as it saw the Skyship draw near..
(( B E L O W ))
"Hahahahah!" I. T. Kyra chuckled as he ditched his parachute, landing on the ground near
Nibelheim Reactor's ruin. "I made it! I- " He was silenced at the cocking of guns and looked
around, smiling nervously at the ambush of ShinRa and ex-Kyra soldiers - Many members of
Kyra had turned against the President of the corperation soon after he began his so-called
"world domination" plot. "H-Hi... fellas.."
(( B A C K A B O V E ))
Diablos reached at the three warriors atop the Skyship - Cloud, Tifa, and Cid - and
everything around them turned into dull grey as they warped into another dimension, their
previous location (along with Diablos') replaced by a huge purple glowing shield.
The demon inhaled the powers of his dimension deeply, then motioned them to make the
first strike. Cid stabbed at Diablos as Tifa punched, summersaulted, and kicked off of
the demon, while Cloud began thrashing it with increasingly powerful blows. After several
hours of this, the demon threw Tifa and Cid out of the dimension back to the Highwind, and
chortled at Cloud, slamming him to the ground with an insanely strong Demi3 spell. THe
demonic figure laughed and laughed, ignoring the glow around Cloud.. Suddenly, Cloud jumped
into the air and shot a barrage of meteors into the demon before getting knocked back by
atother wave of Gravity, which only enraged the warrior more as he dashed into Diablos,
using the Omni-Slash skill to completely and utterly kick the demon's royal buttocks. The
best roared, beams of light emitting from its body as Cloud's blade made blow after blow,
before finally thrashing him one last time, shattering the dimension around them and restoring
them back to reality, near the Skyship, where Diablos melted away back into the black Summon
Materia from whence he came.
((The Last Laugh))
The Skyship flew back towards ShinRa, Inc.. Reeves and SHinRa had finished permanately
shutting down the Mako Storm Generator. The soldiers that captured Irvine T. Kyra had
immediately brought him back to the ship, as the Diablos materia wasburied deep underground,
never to be released. The President sat in the middle of the lounge, which had been redecorated
into a carnivalistic room; The Pres was held captive in an unbreakable glass container
filled with water; A "Dunk Irvine Kyra" game, with a very large target (Barret's creul
idea) and ice-filled water (Cid's even crueller idea), plus to make matters worse, the top
of the slick conainter was left open 'accidentally', along with the cieling fan 'accidently'
being turned on, giving him a severe chill as well. This game quickly became popular to
pass the boredom, especially when the shivering, teeth-chattering president screamed and fell
into the water each time the target was hit by one of the baseballs. And, well, let's just
say everyone aboard the Highwind had a good throwing arm and leave it at that...
*cackles evilly*
So, with that done, it's time to end this episode. Unless you want to see the alternate
versions of this one, skip to EPISODE TEN NOW, and see you next time, on..
