Chapter 11
Ambush and Run
Cloud, Tifa, Inuyasha, Kagome, Shippo, Kirara, Sango, Barret, Cid, Vincent, Red XIII, Yuffie, and Miroku stopped at a village they reached for the night since they were unable to keep up with Kagura and Jenova. They were staying in a hut as Tifa and Cloud were talking alone outside. As always, Kagome, Inuyasha, Shippo and Yuffie were spying on them from behind some bushes. They had no shame. Tifa and Cloud were standing by a lake with the moon reflecting off of the surface. "So Tifa did you think about my proposal" Cloud asked. "Well after much thought Cloud. Yes I will marry you" Tifa said. "But aren't you troubled by the fact that Aeris is alive" Tifa asked. "I am troubled, but I have spent two years trying to get over her and I will not change my mind about marrying you for a minute" Cloud said. "That's good to know. Now when do we get married" Tifa asked.
"Well I guess we can get married when we return to our world since I don't know where we could get married in this world" Cloud replied. "Good point, but in any case I am just glad we are getting married" Tifa said as the two started kissing. "Oooh" Yuffie was saying in a girlish tone as the others weren't sure what they were going to say. "Wow those two are getting married isn't that nice" Kagome said. "Heh who cares" Inuyasha said. Inuyasha, Kagome, Shippo, and Yuffie sunk back to the village to tell everyone else the good news. After all that has happened today they could use a little good news.
Meanwhile in the sky Kagura, Jenova, the Naraku puppet, Kohaku, and Aeris would soon arrive at the castle. But Jenova was detecting something she hadn't noticed earlier. She felt something was following them. As she focused her mind she heard the sound of an engine and she was feeling the presence of someone that was very familiar to her. She was sensing Sephiroth's aura. It was faint, but she could feel that it was right above her. "Kagura turn away from the castle. We're being followed" Jenova said. "By whom" Kagura asked. "By my former servant Sephiroth; he must have found out that I was here and now he is right above us. We must lose him" Jenova commanded Kagura. The group started moving away from the concealed castle as Sephiroth who was still watching them noticed their radical change in direction. He knew this could only mean one thing. They knew that he was following them. Jenova must have detected their presence.
"They are on to us" Sephiroth said as he took control of the Highwind. "They are trying to lose us. Since they are no longer leading us to the castle its time that we kill them" Sephiroth said as he increased the Highwind's speed and it was descending. "Wait if we can't follow them to Naraku's castle. Then what are you going to do to them" Koga asked. "I am going to run those bastards down with this airship. But if I miss you and your friends can shoot at them with magic from the Highwind" Sephiroth said. "Ok I like that idea" Koga said as Koga, Loz, Yazu and a couple of wolf tribesmen made their way to the upper deck. Kagura was looking over her shoulder and she saw the Highwind coming straight at them prepared to run them down. "Sephiroth is trying to crash into us with that flying ship" Kagura said as she was just barely able to turn her feather out of the Highwind's path just in time. However as the feather passed the upper deck area; Koga and the others started shooting at them with lighting, fire and comet magic attacks.
Kagura and the others were under siege as they were blasted by these attacks. They had no chance of beating them in the air, so Kagura was barely able to land on the deck of the ship. "Well, well Kagura how nice to see you again" Koga said as he cracked his knuckles. "Koga; how did you acquire such power" Naraku demanded. "I can answer that" Yazu said as he aimed his two guns at the group of enemies. "You see we ran into the wolf tribe when we first came to this world. To make a long story short; Since we need their help to know this world better we are helping them in return by arming them with Materia and giving them Mako infusions" Yazu said as he fired a bullet and it grazed pass Kagura's cheek.
"So my former son has been busy lately" Jenova said as she prepared for battle. "Jenova when you return to the castle you better tell me about this former son of yours" Naraku said. "I will, but these weaklings should be easily dealt with" Jenova said as she cast Ultima on her enemies, but it was sent right back at her and Naraku's minions. It turned out that Koga had Reflect cast on everyone. "A reflect spell, damn you Sephiroth" Jenova screeched as Kohaku was knocked out from the spell. Aeris jumped to attack. She was about to cast her summon spell, but she was attacked by a volley of multiple punches and kicks from Loz as she was knocked around like a rag doll. In her weakened state Aeris was no match for him.
Koga and two of his tribe members attacked Kagura from all sides. Thanks to haste that one wolf tribesman cast on Koga and his other comrades they got the jump on Kagura. The two warriors grabbed Kagura's arms as Koga started beating the shit out of her with a lot of punches while saying "this is for killing my friends you bitch!" Yazu picked up the unconscious boy and threw him over the side of the ship and Kohaku landed in the middle of a large lake bellow. Once he was gone Yazu turned his attention to the demon puppet. The puppet attacked Yazu with his tentacles, but Yazu blasted the chest of the monster apart and with it the doll that was at the center of it. Aeris was beaten senseless by Loz and she was thrown overboard into the lake below. As for Kagura; Koga threw her over the side when they were over solid ground. Jenova didn't even fight anyone she just fled the scene in a cloud of vapor. Koga and his allies had won the battle, but the war was far from over.
Meanwhile below Kohaku was barely able to get himself out of the lake and Aeris was crawling out of the lake due to her rough landing and it was a miracle that none of them died. Jenova was flying towards Naraku's castle while Kagura who didn't die since her heart is with Naraku was trying to fix her dislocated limbs she suffered from the fall. Naraku sat in his castle a bit annoyed by this latest development as he was a bit worried about the wolf tribe gaining materia and new abilities from Sephiroth. Naraku knew Sephiroth had just become a thorn in his side and Sephiroth needed to be dealt with.
Back in Cloud's world Sesshomaru, Jaken and Rin had reached Costal del Sol and they disembarked from the boat. Sesshomaru visited the nearest materia shop and started browsing around. He found a review materia and he immediately bought it. Once his business there was done Sesshomaru was heading for Corel town. However when Sesshomaru reached the city limits he heard someone saying "Hold it right there Sephiroth" a man with red hair said. It was Reno of the Turks and with him was Rude and Elena. "Excuse me, but you are sadly mistaken. I am not Sephiroth. Now if you would excuse me" Sesshomaru said as he started walking away. "Stop right there. You say you are not Sephiroth, but you have long sliver hair just he has. So either that you are Sephiroth or you are another clone of him" Rude said as he raised his fists.
"I have no interest of fighting you, but continue to bother me and you will regret it" Sesshomaru said as he continued walking away. "Come back here" Elena said as she threw a punch at Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru moved out of the wave and with a quick twist of his arm; he karate chopped her on the back of the neck. Elena was down on the ground with her face in the dirt as Reno and Rude charged Sesshomaru. Reno was ready to take Sesshomaru down with his electro rod and Rude was ready to bust some of his teeth out. Sesshomaru raised his right and he unleashed his energy whip at them and he wrapped the two up together. Sesshomaru held them there as he said "I am not this Sephiroth you speak of and I have no wish to draw the attention of the town by killing you, so I will spare your lives. Now get lost" Sesshomaru said to them as he released them. Sesshomaru turned around and walked away with Rin and Jaken.
Reno helped Elena to her feet and asked "if that wasn't Sephiroth then who the hell is that guy?" "I don't know. Why don't we follow them and find out" Elena suggested. "I suppose we can do that since Shrina is gone and we are out of jobs. Oh hell why not" Reno said as they followed Sesshomaru, but they were keeping their distance from him.
Meanwhile inside the Shrina mansion's basement Kikyo had gone through two books on the Jenova project and she had learned a lot about how Sephiroth was created. However some of the reports she looked though seemed fragmented. They were either incomplete or there was something left out. Anyway; after she was done with the book she was reading she threw it aside and it hit a wall. The wall moved a few inches. Kikyo noticed it and she got up from the chair and went to investigate. She moved the wall move and it revealed a hidden passageway behind the wall.
There was a stairwell going down in a spiral. She armed herself with her bow and an arrow just in case. She walked down the stairs and she started seeing a light at the bottom of the stairs. As she drew closer she heard a man talking to himself. When she reached the bottom she entered some kind of laboratory with test tubes filled with Jenova's cells and some were filled with Mako on a table. There were tanks filled with Mako and each one held a person inside. The cavern was large, but after the row of twelve tanks there was a large pit and at the bottom was the lifestream. There were six large glass tanks with a purple liquid bubbling inside in front of the tanks with the people inside. Kikyo saw a man mixing two test tubes together. He wore a white lab coat, but the coat was badly covered in stains and this man had long black hair. Kikyo raised her bow and was aiming the arrow at the man's head as she said "Turn around!" The man put the test tubes he was working on down as he turned around. The man's face was extremely pale as he had a thin bread and mustache on his face. He had an evil looking expression on his face as he wore reading glasses on his face. He was a man who should have died two years ago, but the power of Jenova's cells allowed him to survive his encounter with Cloud and his friends. "Who are you" Kikyo demanded. "I am Professor Hojo my dear" Hojo said as an evil smile formed on his face.
A/N: Sephiroth12285 (laughs)! Hojo is alive. Oh crap. If he is alive they you know some serious shit is about to happen. Also I have only introduced the Turks. They will become more involved with Sesshomaru as the story goes on.
