Last Chapter: Kinie and the gang head to the new town, Tenshi-noyo Senshi.
There, Kinie made 2 weapons for himself and Azi. During the night, the
evil person telepathically talked to Kinie. To make Kinie suffer, the evil
person made some random citizen from the street kill himself. Now they are
heading toward The North Crater to fight this person.
Ch. 8 - And They Say That.
Cloud: Hey, Kinie.
Kinie: **Staring off into space** Hmm?
Cloud: What are you holding? You've had those in your hand ever since we left Tenshi-noyo Senshi.
Kinie: **Snapping back to reality** Huh? **Looks down, and sees those 2 weapons still wrapped up in that cloth.** Oh! Hey, Azi!
Azi: Yeah?
Kinie: Catch! **He tosses her one of the weapons, still wrapped up in that cloth.**
Azi: **Catching the weapon** What is it? **Folds over the cloth, revealing a sword, sheathed. ** Is this what I think it is?
Kinie: Unsheath it and find out.
Azi: **Unsheathes the sword.** It is! You made a Sakaboto!
Kinie: Yep. I made one for myself too. **Removes the cloth and unsheathes the sword, also revealing his Sakaboto. ** I put our names on the hilt, so that they will not get mixed up.
Aeris: What's a Sakaboto?
Azi: 'Sakaboto' is Japanese for 'Reverse-blade sword.'
Aeris: What's a reverse-blade sword, and what is Japanese?
Kinie: I'll explain the Japanese thing later. To answer your first question, a reverse-blade sword just like every other sword, except for one minor difference.
Cid: What's that?
Azi: This! **Jumps up into the air, and swings straight down at Cid's head. The sword connects, and everyone hears this loud BONK. **
Cid: OW! That really hurt, you wench!
Kinie: If that had been a normal sword, Cid would have most likely been cut in half, but a reverse-blade sword is designed to injure and harm its opponent, but not kill. I could go on into a more complex explination, but that would probably confuse you all.
Azi: **After sheathing the sword, she now begins to laugh this evil laugh and smile an evil smile ** Ehehehehehe.. Time to do a little dimensional teleporting.
Kinie: Not now, Azi.
Azi: **Falls over, anime style. ** Why not?
Kinie: First off, it defies all the laws of physics. Second, they cause enough damage and trouble in their own world as it stands. Third, they--
Azi: PLEASE! Just one!
Kinie: Well. OK. Just wait until we're done at The North Crater.
Azi: YEA!!
Vincent: **Weird look** Uhh. what the hell are you two talking about?
Kinie: ** sweatdrops** Umm. Azi just wishes that we could just teleport to the North Crater, that's all. right, Azi?
Azi: **sweatdrops** Uh. yeah. right, Kinie.
Kinie and Azi: **Stressed laughs.**
Cid: What are you talking about? We've been at the North Crater now for about 5 minutes, waiting for you two lovebirds to stop talking.
Azi: **Surprised look** Wha--? You think. me.
Kinie: **Surprised look** And her.
Kinie and Azi: Are a couple?
Cid: Well. yeah.
Kinie and Azi: Hmm. **Out of nowhere, both pull out a Sony Black Ops Rocket Launcher [SBORL] (Author: Yes, I read Megatokyo), load them with several rockets, and point the launcher straight at Cid's head.**
Azi: We are NOT.
Kinie: A COUPLE! Now if you want to stay alive, I suggest you don't say those words ever again in the same sentence.
Cid: **MANY sweatdrops** OK, OK! I won't say that again!
Kinie and Azi: Good. **Both SBORL's disappear.**
Kinie: OK then. Let's go!
Kinie and Azi walk off the bridge and head for the enterance to the North Crater.
FF7 gang: Note to self. Don't ever make Kinie and/or Azi again. Ever.
They too also head for the enterance to the North Crater. Meanwhile, down in a cargo room.
Alex: **Pulling himself out of a box** Finally! They've stopped!
Mike: **Cleaning his gun** Nice idea to sneak a ride on their own airship, Andy!
Andy: Now that we're at. wherever we are. let's go get Kinie and Azi!
The three follow closely behind Kinie, Azi, and the others, just staying out of earshot range. Meanwhile, Kinie and the others have just entered the North Crater, and are beginning to climb down into the depths of the earth.
Azi: So, guys. Did you see anyone or anything weird down here while you were training?
Tifa: Actually, we just stayed around this general area. We didn't go to far in.
Barret: By the way. how did your training go, you two?
Kinie: Our training went just fine. How did you guys do?
Cloud: We did OK. We mastered some materia, but that was about it.
They talk some more, before the main path branches off toward several different paths.
Cloud: Well. which way shall we go?
Kinie: Why don't we split up?
Aeris: We could do that.
Cloud: OK then! Cid, Vincent, Yuffie and Cait Sith; You 4 will take the left path. Red XIII, Tifa, Barret, and myself will take the right path.
Kinie: That leaves me, Azi, and Aeris the center path.
Cloud: If you reach a dead end or if the paths haven't converged again within an hour, turn around and head back here.
Azi: Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!
So they each split up and head down their respective paths. Down the middle path, Azi, Kinie, and Aeris continue talking.
Azi: Hey, Kinie.
Kinie: Yeah? What's up?
Azi: **Turning to Aeris** Can you give us a minute?
Aeris: Oh. sure. **Begins walking away from the two. **
Azi: **Checks to make sure that Aeris is far enough away** OK then! Can you use you're drawing ability to make us some new clothes? Not that I don't like the whole 'Vash the Stampede' look, but we've been wearing this ever since we joined up with Cloud and the others.
Kinie: Sure, why not? Besides, I don't like the silver trenchcoat anyway. What kind of clothes do you want?
Azi: Hmmm. How about something from Rurouni Kenshin?
Kinie: OK... I'll draw my own unique outfit then.
So Kinie sits down, takes out a drawing pad, a pencil, and some markers, and begins to draw. A few minutes later, he closes his drawing pad, and 2 sets of different clothes appear on the ground for them both to wear.
Azi: ** Grabing her clothes ** Sw33t! You gave me Kenshin's outfit! What did you make?
Kinie: **Hiding his clothes behind his back** It's a surprise.
Azi: Ohh. I like surprises. Umm. How about some privacy for us to change?
Kinie: Oh, yeah. Just give me a second.
He sits down again, and begins drawing again. A minute later, he closes his drawing pad, and there appears a changing room, fully boxed in, with only a door to enter.
Azi: OK then! Ladies first.
She walks over to the room, opens the door, and enters, closing the door behind her. A few minutes later, she opens the door, and out walks Azi, wearing her new wardrobe.
Kinie: My turn.
He walks over, and enters the room. While he's changing, Aeris walks back up to them.
Aeris: Umm. ** Looking around ** Where'd you get the new clothes, where's Kinie, and why is there a changing room in the middle of a path in the middle of nowhere?
Azi: We decided to have a change in wardrobe, that's all. **Nodding her head over to the room ** And Kinie's inside the room, changing as we speak.
Aeris: Oh.
Kinie walks out just as Aeris finishes her sentence. He is now wearing a steel-colored T-shirt that says 'B4k4^2' on the front. He is also wearing jeans that have a chinese dragon on each pant leg. His reverse-blade sword is now behind his back, being held to his body by a piece of leather. Finally, he is now carrying a bag slinged over his shoulder.
Azi: Whoa! **Pointing at the bag** Is that one of those Megatokyo flap- dohicky bags?
Kinie: It's called a Megatokyo Flapdoozy Bag! And yes, this bag is one of them.
Aeris: What's a Megatokyo? And what's a Flapdoozy bag?
Kinie: I'll explain those two later. For now, let's just continue on exploring this path.
They continue on, leaving the changing room where it is. Soon after they begin exploring again, they enter a gigantic chamber, with a small land bridge leading them across to a circular section of land. Both the bridge and the circled land are surrounded by the Lifestream. The three begin walking toward the center of the room.
Azi: ** Looking around ** WHOA! This is a BIG chamber!
Aeris: Why is the Lifestream surrounding this room?
Kinie: I dunno. But, I will say this: 2-to-1 odds say that the bad guy is in this room.
Voice (From Ch. 7) : You're right.
Kinie: I know I am. wait. who said that?
Voice: I did, you nitwit. Look behind Aeris.
All 3: Wha--?
All three turn around. There, standing on the land bridge, is a man with long white hair, wearing all black, eyes the same Mako radiation color of Cloud's, and carrying a LONG sword.
Aeris: S-S-Sephiroth?!
Azi: Wait a minute! Aren't you supposed to be dead?
Sephiroth: Well, news of my death has been extremely exaggerated.
Kinie: Wait a minute. Why do you want to kill me, and why aren't you dead?
Sephiroth: To answer your second question, the one Cloud killed in that empty void was my final clone. And I want to kill you because you are the only person who can stop me.
Azi: What's your plan this time to kill humanity?
Kinie: Don't ask him that. now he's going to go on this long tyrade to explain his master plan to us.
Sephiroth: Why should I explain my plan to a puppet? That is what humans are; puppets. They are a failed experiment by God. And now I am here, as the Angel of Death, to correct God's mistake!
Aeris: You're mad!
Azi: ** Taking out a piece of paper and a pencil, which she begins to write with ** Well, we can add Sephiroth's name to those that have gone totally insane.
Sephiroth: ** Suddenly behind Azi, and bonks her on the head, then goes back to where he was standing. ** Are you all ready to die? ** Unsheathes sword. **
Kinie: Not today. ** Drops his bag, and unsheathes his sword. ** Azi, you ready?
Azi: You know I am! **Drops her backpack and stands ready with sword also unsheathed. **
Kinie: Good. Aeris!
Aeris: ** Turns around to face Kinie. ** Y-- Yes?
Kinie: Go back down the path, and get Cloud and the others. Tell Cloud that, if we fall, he must finish Sephiroth off for us.
Aeris: O -- Okay. ** Turns around and begins running back across the bridge. **
Sephiroth: Oh no you won't!
As Sephiroth goes to jump in front of Aeris' path, both Kinie and Azi charge at him. He has no choice but to stay where he stands and defend himself as Aeris escapes down the path. After their initial charge, Kinie and Azi must go on the defensive, as Sephiroth goes on the attack. The two try hard to get in close for a swing at Sephiroth, but it is no use.
Azi: Kinie! His sword is too long! We can't get in close enough for a hit!
Kinie: OK then! Go to Plan B!
Azi sheathes her sword, and jumps in front of Sephiroth, several yards away from the reach of his sword. She sticks out her right hand, which now begins to glow.
Azi: Hey, Sephiroth! Do you like birds?
Sephiroth: Not really. why?
Azi: Because you're about to get hit with. **Her hand stops glowing, and the energy from the glow forms an energy ball, hovering over her hand. She goes for a wind-up, like a major league baseball pitcher. ** 1,000 Birds! **She throws the energy ball, which flies toward Sephiroth, making this chirping sound as it gets closer to him. **
Sephiroth: All too easy. **He jumps up, and the energy ball flies beneath him, hitting the wall that was several yards behind him. **
Azi: Now Kinie!
Kinie: Right! **He sheathes his sword, and then just disappears. **
Sephiroth: **Still in the air ** Where'd the boy go?
Kinie: Right behind you!
Sephiroth turns his head around, and sees that Kinie is right behind him, with his hand pointed at Sephiroth like a gun. His index finger begins to glow this blue energy. **
Kinie: Spirit Gun! ** The index finger fires this blue ball of energy right at Sephiroth's back. The blast of energy hits Sephiroth right in the back. **
Sephiroth: ** Unaffected ** Oooo.. That tickles.
Sephiroth thrusts his sword hilt at Kinie, which hits him in the chest. Kinie flies back, hits the wall, and falls down into the Lifestream. Just as Kinie lands in the Lifestream, Sephiroth lands on the ground.
Azi: Kinie!
Sephiroth: Do not worry about him. There is no worrying over the dead.
Azi: Y-- you mean.
Sephiroth: Yes. Kinie is dead.

Ch. 8 - And They Say That.
Cloud: Hey, Kinie.
Kinie: **Staring off into space** Hmm?
Cloud: What are you holding? You've had those in your hand ever since we left Tenshi-noyo Senshi.

Azi: Y-- you mean.
Sephiroth: Yes. Kinie is dead.
