Out of the mists the light house came. Sephiroth's hand griped his sword, his knuckles white underneath black gloves. His mind tried not to play games, but the chance of Star being injured was beyond certain. Sephiroth indeed had taken Clouds girl in a fit of madness. Madness brought on by the master puppet Jenova, and his father. His father not at complete fault, he was being controlled. By either Jenova, or his own emotions who knew.
Sephiroth reaches out for the door and opens it. How Cloud was to face him in here Sephiroth didn't know. Both swords would get stuck on the walls, being that they were of immense size. Or was Cloud planning on playing unfairly? Now or never.
The light house inside was small, and moldy. The air stank from years of confinement. That was more like long periods of confinement, the light house was till used so a care taker had to come in here from time to time. As his eyes adjust to the darkness Sephiroth notices an abnormally small and narrow stair case. It could be summed up that the care givers were small in stature.
"Cloud?" Sephiroth calls up and takes a step forward.
The floor board crack then snap, and before Sephiroth can jump back the floor gives out beneath his weight. Sephiroth reaches out in the darkness for anything that he can grab, futile. Sephiroth falls into the darkness helplessly till a sharp pain fills his head.

"Sephiroth! Sephiroth!" A voice shrieked.
Sephiroth groans and forces open his eyes. Light invading the peaceful darkness. Someone shook him with sincere urgency, Sephiroth bats the person away and sits up. Rubbing life back into his mind he looks at the person who awoke him. His mind cleared as he saw the face of the woman he came to save.
"Star!" Sephiroth said excitedly in a loud whisper.
"Shh it's okay."
"No, it ain't!" A voice snaps.
Star is pulled back by her hair. Cloud grinning evilly from behind her. Sephiroth scrambles to his feet making sure to grab his sword that still lay close to him. Cloud indeed wanted to fight, and the basement of the light house was just large enough to accomplish that. There was nicer ways to get Sephiroth down here to fight though.
"Let her go." Sephiroth growls.
"You want me to let her go?" Cloud seems to laugh. "You so sure about that?"
"Yes." Sephiroth grits his teeth.
"Here!"
Cloud pushes Starla forward, and before Sephiroth's eyes Cloud drives his sword through Starla's abdomen. Blood drizzling off Clouds sword unto the floor. Starla reaches for the sword, her face calm, not registering the sword. Sephiroth sucks in a deep breath, as he looks on in sheer disbelief. Seconds before the terror of loosing Starla set in. In a slow motion surreal motion Cloud with draws his sword. Starla falls limply into Sephiroth's arms.
"Star, Star answer me." Sephiroth shakes her.
Starla opens her eyes and smiles weakly. "Hey, don't cry."
Cry? Sephiroth wipes his eyes, indeed he was crying. Cloud moved to sit down in the background to watch dispashionly. His sick idea of justice for Aeris. Aeris was to kind of a lady for her to wish this on anyone. She accepted her fate, and it was like she knew it was coming.
"Star, I'm so sorry I failed you." Sephiroth rocks her.
"It's okay," she smiles sweetly. "How I wanted to be your wife to have your children."
She moves his hand over her stomach. Sephiroth turns pale, and he shakes his head in disbelief.
"No, no don't die, I'll get you help."
"Good bye, kiss me one last time?"
Sephiroth pulls her to him, he locks lips with her as sobs begins to rock his body. Starla places a bloodied hand on Sephiroth's face. Then with the next shuddering breath she was gone. Sephiroth hugs her to him and sobs uncontrollably. It was like it was his fault, if he would have only let her be after he saved her she'd still be alive. Out of the corner laughs erupt from the forgotten Cloud.
"Now you know how it feels." Cloud hisses.
"Why?" Sephiroth asks as he looks up.
"Because you took Aeris from me. Then you proceeded in turning the people I once tried to save against me you idiot!" Cloud answers.
"I turned no one against you. They all seen the true side of you." Sephiroth says gently laying his Starla on the ground and grabbing his masume. "And for taking her life I shall end yours. You may have defeated me once, but I was ill in mind."
"Hmm, but me being ill in mind only makes me stronger." Cloud says mockingly.
Sephiroth stands up slowly and shifts into a fighting stance. "We'll see."
Sephiroth launches at Cloud, Cloud ready for Sephiroth's sudden advance raises up his sword. Both clash together in a dazzling array of sparks. Cloud pushes back Sephiroth and swings at his legs while Sephiroth is still unbalanced. Sucking in air, Sephiroth jumps back and feels the blade as it gently glides across the skin of his legs. Only small wounds but enough to scare him.
"Oh did I draw first blood." Cloud teases.
"Shut up," Sephiroth growls.
Cloud launches forward and both meet again in a clash of swords. Each other vying for the other to screw up. There hits falling fast and faster, to the point it looked like either swords might give. Sephiroth gives out a blood curling scream and launches at Cloud. Cloud sword pierces into Sephiroth's stomach, as Sephiroth's masume swings around.
In a spray of blood paints the walls, and Sephiroth. Clouds head flies into the air and lands on the floor with a satisfying thunk. Cloud's hands detach from the sword, and his headless body falls over. Sephiroth drops his sword then drops to the floor Cloud's sword still in his gut. Looking to his side he sees Clouds head looking at him smiling, Sephiroth might die here anyway.
"Anyone down there?"
Sephiroth couldn't believe that there might be a person up above him. Gathering the last of his energy he calls out, but darkness ascends on him before he knew if he did yell or not.
****
"OUCH!" Sephiroth screams.
"Sorry I thought you were out cold." The nurse responds.
"Well, I'm not... How did I get here?"
"The light house keeper found you. I'm shocked you survived, normal people don't survive stuff like that."
"I'm not normal." Sephiroth says with a hint of laughter.
