Ok Chapter 6 I did say I would update my other stories but this is the only
one I seem to be able to think stuff up for.
Personal Notes
Stephen: I'm so sorry that I haven't updated in a while but I was sent to the hospital due to complications *glares at Sephiroth*
Sephiroth: Why are you mad? I got sent there too.
Stephen: Sephiroth, I am mad because IT WAS YOUR FAULT I WAS SENT THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sephiroth: Yeah, well you shouldn't have called me a momma's boy.
Stephen: -_- YOU ARE A MOMMA'S BOY
Sephiroth: *takes out masamune* YOU WILL DIE MORTAL.
Stephen: *takes out Katana* (Katana- very thin and deadly sword commonly used by ninjas) Bring it on momma's boy.
The two charge forward and colloid causing a massive explosion of energy both fighters are thrown twenty feet back. Sephiroth is unconscious Stephen manages to support himself with the katana.
Stephen: Great this will keep me out for another week sorry but you will have to wait. *Kicks Sephiroth and falls to the ground* Bastard!!! Well on with the fic sorry. *Falls unconscious*
Chapter 6: A Quick Battle
"That's the last of them"
Stephen sheathed his sword as the last man fell to the ground.
Reno got back up from the ground
"You know you could have warned us you were going to use finishing touch instead of having us almost killed."
Stephen turned his back to him.
"You should have been faster"
Stephen sensed a small amount of energy nearby dissipate and took a look at the factory the barrier was much weaker barely even there and fading fast.
"The barrier is dying out Marlene must have done her job."
Stephen took the intercom from Reno and changed the frequency he was ready to see this place blow up.
All he had to do was wait for Marlene.
It took a few minutes but Stephen finally saw the light of the exit spell that Marlene had cast.
However seeing Marlene on the floor in an unconscious state and soaking in her own blood was not something Stephen had wanted to see.
"Marlene!!"
Stephen rushed to her side her breathing was very heavy and her pulse was fading fast.
"Damn"
Stephen cast life 2 but it had no effect.
He tried again still no effect.
He tried once more and she stopped breathing.
"God no."
Stephen took out his only elixir and had Marlene's lifeless body choke it down.
Her wounds healed almost immediately but she continued to not breath.
He tried life one last time if it failed he knew what would happen next.
Marlene would not wake up.
Stephen place an MP turbo into his escort guard along with the life materia and it began to glow a pale green.
"LIFE"
Even though Stephen had said it with such intensity that the ground seemed to shake only a gentle breeze blew by to answer his call.
Stephen thanked god his prayers were answered.
Marlene started to breath again but remained unconscious.
Thank you for saving a life for once god.
Stephen gently kissed her forehead and laid her down much like he had laid down his mother's head so long ago.
Stephen's eyes flashed with a quick malice as he scoped the area and stared into a thin ally as he turned.
"JADE COME OUT NOW!!!!!!!!!"
The general happily obliged and stepped out of the shadows.
"So tell me how did you spot me?"
Stephen ignored her question and put himself into a fighting stance.
Jade looked into Stephen's eyes where she saw darkness she had never seen.
They seemed so empty.
Stephen finally decided to answer the question.
"I can spot anything dark. The barrier, you, I saw everything from the moment I entered this city."
"So why did you send this woman alone?"
Stephen charged forward not answering the question driving forward with a punch.
Jade side stepped the blow and kicked Stephen hard to the ribs.
Stephen wasn't even fazed.
"Humph just as stubborn as the bitch."
Stephen drew his sword and held it ready to strike at any second.
"Humph"
"You sure say that a lot don't you?"
Stephen held his sword tighter and waited for the first move he was growing impatient.
"Strike coward"
"Do you think I'm some kind of amateur even Yuffie knew better then to strike first?
"Yuffie?"
Flashes of the Highwind and Yuffie's last words rushed through Stephen's head at the mention of her name.
"How do you know her!?!?!?!"
"Humph you are clueless aren't you"
"Say hello to the one and only air to the thrown of Wutai.
"What then you are Yuffie's daughter?"
"Correct now brace yourself"
"Wait!!!! Sephiroth killed your mother so why fight me? We should be on the same side"
"You fool your pitiful thoughts of revenge have blinded you from the big picture.".
"What?"
"Humph you really are clueless. How did you think that Sephiroth knew where your mother and father lived? With Jenova gone it was impossible to track them, but control and telepathic communication to sensitive subjects was possible.
"Sensitive . . .you mean?"
"Bingo say hello to the cause of your father and his friends death. I gave your father's location and warned my mother of the attack just so she could be there to die. All for my personal benefit of course"
Stephen gripped his sword tighter.
"What could you possibly gain from such a dishonorable act."
Jade smiled and took out her jewel encrusted daggers.
"Power"
"Power?"
"Of course. My mother's death led me to the full rule and power of Wutai."
Stephen lifted his sword into a defensive position.
"You do know that your rule will not last"
"If you think that Sephiroth will take over Wutai and kill me it's not an issue. Wutai is too remote it wouldn't even make a small extent to Sephiroth's empire"
Stephen smirked.
"No you don't grasp what I'm saying but of course when your lying in your own pile of blood like Marlene had been you won't really be in any condition to rule."
With that Stephen rushed forward slashing his sword in a horizontal and vertical patterns.
Jade simply sidestepped all of Stephen's advances and flipped back into her previous position.
This comment caused Jade to laugh. Her laugh sounded reminded Stephen of a very familiar noise such as nails on a chalkboard.
"You think that you can kill me so easily? Here's a little fact for you. I was made a general for one main reason. I have inhuman speed thanks to the three forces at full you will not catch up."
Marlene started to glow a crimson light as she ran at Stephen.
Stephen barely even saw the attack but dodged just in time thanks to his sight.
Jade stood where Stephen had daggers still in hand when a breeze blew by her.
The wind had finally caught up.
She charged at Stephen again this time he wasn't so lucky and he got a glancing cut to his arm.
"Damn."
She's too fast I have to start the offensive
Stephen focused his energy and used his newly acquired limit break.
"BLITZ"
Stephen dashed forward crashing his sword forward into Jade.
Jade managed to deflect the blow with her daggers but was knocked back.
This gave Stephen just enough time to give Jade a nice final heaven to the stomach.
The force of the blow didn't send Jade any distance but she coiled over in extreme pain struggling for breath.
"Do you want to surrender and take me to Sephiroth or continue this pointless battle."
Jade caught her breath and stared at Stephen her eyes flashed a quick red as she charged at Stephen full force.
Her speed was much faster. Even Stephen couldn't catch up with her as she charged causing damage with her daggers and retreating.
Stephen stayed in a defensive position he had to face facts.
You can't attack what you can't see.
Damn there has to be a way to get her
Stephen thought this as he was attacked twice more cutting open his stomach ever slightly.
Thankfully daggers aren't that strong.
Stephen managed to keep his eyes open the whole time despite the pain that he was going through.
Where he saw a quick flash.
It shined a quick red shade and no matter how quick it was it was all Stephen needed.
Stephen immediately drove his foot in a downward angle a cracking sound was heard as Jade's leg snapped from under her and she fell to the ground.
Stephen walked up to her and smashed he performed in axe kick upon the weaker leg smashing it into pieces.
Jade cried out in pain as she looked at Stephen fear in her eyes.
Even the general held more feeling when he fought he had a kind of remorse. Stephen held none.
"How did you spot me?"
Stephen turned to face her.
"Your daggers they held rubies in them they reflected causing a flash of red every time you attacked."
Stephen turned to walk away.
"Your going to spare me? . . .Thank you."
Stephen turned around and drove his sword into Jade's back he then took it out and cast flare on her already lifeless body as it burnt to ashes only her daggers remained.
Stephen took the daggers. He kept one and threw the other into Jade's ashes.
"Fool! I would have forgotten. Sephiroth will die by my hands and I will spare no one that stands in my way."
Stephen fell to the ground holding his arm. One of Jade's throwing knives laid in his left arm where he had suffered the most damage blood trickling down the arm soaking his gloves with it.
He then sheathed his bloodstained sword and turned to see a terrified Marlene who had finally regained consciousness.
Shadow and Reno said nothing as Stephen used the intercom.
"It's done now give me my information now I want to leave this city as soon as possible."
The intercom remained silent.
". . .and the general?"
"Jade has been disposed of."
More silence then finally two words.
"Cosmo Canyon"
Stephen turned off the intercom.
"Vincent is at Cosmo Canyon let's go"
Stephen headed toward the exit of the city.
Shadow followed then Marlene who traveled at the slowest pace.
"Marlene."
Marlene turned to see Reno his head bowed down ever slightly his fiery red hair covering his eyes.
"In the reactor did you see a man with no hair and a suit similar to mine only neater?"
"You mean Rude"
"So you did see him. Is he-"
"Rude was lying in a pool of blood when I found him he is probably dead now."
Reno clenched his fists tightly.
"So it was all my fault."
"What?"
Reno had said his words so quietly Marlene hadn't even heard them.
Reno moved up ahead to Stephen who was taking an X-Potion given by Shadow to heal his wounds.
"Stephen."
"What."
"I'm joining you"
Stephen said nothing for a moment but finally spoke not even turning to face the man.
"Fine just stay out of my way."
With that the four walked out of the city as the factory exploded behind them.
____________________________________________________________
"General"
Sephiroth turned to face a man his wounds were great and Sephiroth immediately noticed him as a sentry from Junon.
"What is it?"
"Junon's factory has been completely destroyed."
"What?!?!?!?! What happened to Jade."
"She's been killed by an unknown rebel sir."
"And the power source of the factory what has become of that?"
"It was stolen by the rebel."
"Damn"
Sephiroth turned away as the man fell to the ground from his exhaustion and stared out the window in the distance he could see small explosions still erupting in the city.
Damn I know somehow Vincent is involved in all this. He must have allied with Stephen I have to stop this.
"Sir let me do it"
Sephiroth looked at the man he was very muscular and tall, had short silver hair, and held a rod in his hand the rod held sharp edges on each side.
"Very well do not disappoint me"
"As you wish sir"
The man stepped out as a tan skinned woman with long silky hair, and captivating emerald eyes. She wore a silk white night gown, which covered her down to her feet.
"You do know that Ryo will probably fail you should have just sent me"
Sephiroth kneeled by her and kissed her hand.
"You know I would not send you unless it was absolutely necessary milady."
The woman turned slightly crimson as Sephiroth released his grip on her hand.
"Still he is powerful I wouldn't underestimate him. The sentry said that he was merciless with Jade and killed her without a single thought."
"I'm not surprised it's how he was raised I wonder when the role Hojo had set for him will come into play."
