Chapter 11

Time seemed to slow down to Dete as her sword made the slow process of withdrawing from its sheath.  The sound it made was the only one that passed between the two-blood sisters, turned enemy.  The sound was deafening to Dete; she wished that look in Rueh's aqua eyes would change to the familiar happiness she remembered from childhood. 

"So my sister has some guts after all," Rueh sneered, her eyes flashed with an emotion so quickly that Dete almost thought she hadn't seen it at all; even if she had it was so quick she couldn't recognize it.  Rueh raise her chin high in defiance.  "How do you feel right now?"

Dete blinked a couple of times then shook her head in confusion.  "What?  What do you mean?"

Rueh smirked cruelly and waved her hand in a gesture to all those who had already fallen victim to her.  "How do you feel knowing you just stood back, knowing they didn't stand a chance against me, and you watched?"

Dete shivered.  There was mock humor and accusation written all over Rueh's face along with that iciness that made Dete's hair want to stand on end.

Dete bowed her head.  "Rueh…why?  Why are you doing this?" Dete looked back up at her sister for the answer that she'd never find in the icy depths of Rueh's angry glowing eyes.

Those eyes narrowed into cold flaming orbs that promised much pain and suffering.  Dete stifled back her sadness; she finally realized she had to view Rueh as an enemy and not a once dear friend…and sister.

"You look as if you'd like to cry," Rueh taunted. 

"Shut up Rueh," Dete growled.

"Oohh," Rueh's voice turned to that of one of pleasure.  "Good.  My idiot sister has finally seen what I truly intend to do.  Are you still going to fight me you worthless creature?"

"Worthless creature?" Dete frowned.  "You are the same as I am…"

"You're wrong!" Rueh snapped fiercely, the smirk returning to her features.  "I am better than you," she whispered.  "I am far better than you could ever be Dete.  Can't you see that, or did you not learn your lesson during our first encounter?  Which I might remind you, you ran away."

"I save their lives!"

"That's right, you did didn't you?  Why would you ever do such a thing as that?  Were they worth saving?  Where they worth your time?  They weren't of much help to you today now where they?  They are even more worthless than you my dear sister."  Rueh's eyes fell onto Sephiroth and Cassandra, for a moment her gaze seemed to soften then came back the anger twice as bad as it had been.  She snorted in disgust and returned her gaze to Dete.  "You will be the last one I kill just so that I can have the pleasure of seeing your face as they die.  They will be the first to go," she stated as fact, motioning to Cassandra and Sephiroth.

"You'd really kill your own mom and dad?  Grow up Rueh!" Dete yelled, it frightened her now to think what would happen if she really lost.  Would Rueh really go through with it and make her watch the agonizing deaths of not only all her friends…but her parents too? 'Oh gods Rueh…you're insane…'

'It runs in the family, didn't you know?'

Dete inhaled sharply and looked on to Rueh very much startled.  "How-"

'There has always had a special connection between you and I…I just chose to cut it off for the reason of keeping you twits away until I was ordered to dispose of your presence.'

"STOP IT RUEH!"

Dete's yelling sparked the fighting spirit in Rueh, she was through with talking now and readied her sword in much the same pose her dad did.

Dete bit her lower lip; this is it…no turning back now.  If I loose then everything is lost…oh how I wish she were my sister. Dete whipped at the tears in her eyes then prepared herself for the battle at hand…
