Chapter 25

A duel at school

Junior and Jen were facing off against one another, but instead of attacking Junior Jen used her trident and she cut her arm off. She quickly re-grew a new arm, but the arm she cut off transformed into another Jenova creature. The creature was Jenova-Death, and the giant mass of tentacles and whatever else the monster was made out of lashed out its tentacles at Junior. Junior jumped into the air to evade them. Two of them tried to grab him from below, but the young swordsman sliced them up with his sword.

Jen jumped up onto the roof of the building and she sat down and she started fixing her nails. Junior was stuck in mortal combat with the Jenova create as he cut off some more tentacles that had tried to decapitate him. Junior threw his sword like a harpoon and the sword pieced the head of the monster. Jenova-Death screamed in agony as it fell backwards. Junior fired and blasted the monster with some lighting based spells.

"Jen you are nothing but a bitchy little coward!" Junior shouted. Junior ran pass Jenova-Death to reclaim his sword from behind the monster.

Once he had his sword he ran up to the monster and he began slicing up the monster in a frenzy of sword strikes. Blood and parts of the monster started to fly all over the place. Soon nothing was left of Jenova-Death, but a chopped up carcass. Junior was about to turn his attention to Jen, but Jenova-Death regenerated and it resumed its attack on Junior.

"You have got to be fucking kidding me!" Junior said as he jumped back to avoid getting hit by the monster's assault.

Jenova-Death tried to spit acid at Junior, but the sliver haired teen was much quicker as he avoided the deadly spit. Junior threw a sphere of energy at Jenova-death and the blast blew one of its larger limbs clear off of its body. Junior was trying to contemplate way he could destroy the monster. While the sliver haired boy was running he noticed a large tank of propane could be seen outside of the gym though one of the holes in the gym's wall.

Junior whistled to the monster hoping it would follow him. The monster moved towards its prey as Junior jumped thorough the hole in the wall. Junior near the large propane tank waiting for the monster. Once the monster was looming over him after it's smashed its way thorough the wall of the gym Junior smiled as he jumped up and he fired a blast of energy at the tank. The large tank exploded and the Jenova monster was incinerated.

Jen turned her head and saw the smoke and flames from the explosion and smiled. "Good bye Junior." Jen said with a smile of satisfaction.

"I am not dead yet Jen." Junior said as both of his feet hit Jen in the head and the force of his landing sent the young woman crashing thorough the roof of the gym and crashing into the ground below. Junior had used the explosion to propel himself high into the air.

Jen rose up from the rubble and had a look on her face that would terrify most brave men and women. Jen raised her trident to block Junior's sword strikes as he started attacking Jen with a serious look on his face. He kept dealing one blow after another against Jen as Junior kept hitting the trident with all he could muster. Sparks were flying as the sliver haired teen was giving it all he had so he could cut the trident in half and leave Jen with nothing to project her.

Finally with one good decisive blow Junior cut the trident in half and he cut Jen's head in two at the same time. Junior pulled his sword out of Jen's spilt head and he put it away. Jen was still standing there with a look of surprise on each half of her spilt face.

"Parting is such sweet sorrow. Here have a gift." Junior said with a boyish grin as the young man reached into his pocket and he pulled out a grenade. Junior pulled the pin and stuffed it down Jen's exposed throat. Before the grenade could explode Junior grabbed Jen and he threw her high into the air over his shoulder. Jen landed into flames that were from the explosion of the propane tank. Seconds later the grenade exploded. Junior stood there with his back turned to the smoke and flames behind him for a moment or two until he said "I know you are not dead Jen, so just get your ass up and let's finish this."

"Very well!" Jen hissed as a large object was rising up from the flames. Jen's new form was similar to Jenova Synisesis, but this form had many whip like tentacles attached to the back and the legs of the monster and Jen's face was a light blue with red eyes. She was looming over Junior as both of her red eyes became slits.

"Come and get some of this!" Junior dared as he drew his sword once again.

"Bring it on!" Jen hissed as she and Junior partially threw themselves at each other. Junior was the first to draw blood as he cut his way through Jen's tentacles when the psychotic teen tried to seize him with them. Junior moved up and with one good vertical cut with his sword he spilt Jen's head in two while he was jumping over the monster. Jen was trying to shout a bunch of curse words, but since her head was still cut in half the words came out all distorted and mixed up.

Junior pulled out three pipes that were sticking out of the roof behind him as he picked each one up and he threw them at Jen. Like a spear each pipe penetrated a part of Jen's body ripping through it like a knife thorough tin-foil. Jen screamed while her head was regenerating. "Had enough bitch...now where is Rei!" Junior shouted at the monster.

"Don't worry. I will send her to hell with you after I kill you!" Jen shouted as she turned her body around in a flash and she charged the sliver haired swordsman.

Junior reacted to Jen's attack by jumped up into the air while Jen while still caught up in her own blind enraged anger caused the monster to step on a weak area of the roof that couldn't support Jen's gigantic weight. Jen fell through the roof and she landed on a pile of broke glass and stone rubble.

Junior decided to look around on the roof top for Rei. Junior ran up to the edge of the roof of the gym and he began screeching the roof tops of the other buildings trying to find Rei. Suddenly Junior noticed a figure in the distance on top of one of the other buildings. Judging by the look of it Junior believed that might be the cafeteria for the school.

Junior knew that injuries Jen had suffered would keep her down for a while, so the young teen walked back a few steps from the edge of the building. Then he turned and he ran towards the edge of the roof. At the very moment one of his feet touched the edge Junior jumped off the side of the building and he landed on the roof of the cafeteria. Junior turned his head and he found Rei tied to a metal pole. The young blue haired girl was unconscious so Junior ran up to the girl and he knelt down and he undid her bonds.

Once Rei was freed Junior started shaking her lightly by the shoulders trying to wake the girl up. "Hey Rei...wake up...I am here to get you out of here." Junior was saying as Rei's eyes were slowing opening up. Rei was awake, but she was still a little dazed, but she turned her head and looked up to see Junior's face.

"Sephiroth-Junior, what are you doing here?" Rei mumbled.

"I am here to save you duh? Listen can you walk?" Junior asked as he picked Rei up.

"I think so." Rei replied.

"Good...hold on." Junior said as he held onto Rei. A second later he jumped off the edge of the building and he landed on the ground gracefully like a cat landing on both feet. Junior put Rei down and he turned to her and said "Listen to me Rei. Go back to NERV and tell everyone what happened here, but most importantly I need you to get out of here so you can be out of danger. Now go." Junior said as he raised his sword and he ran back towards the gym to finish his battle with Jen.

Rei wanted to stop Junior from running off head first into battle, but Rei knew she would only get in the way if she tried to intervene. Rei turned and she ran off into the shadows to make her way back to NERV as soon as possible to get some reinforcements. Moments later Junior reentered the gym and he found Jen was rising up from the rubble she landed on.

"All bets are off Jen. Rei is safe so that means you are as good as screwed." Junior threatened.

"No matter...once I am done with you I will take care of that little bitch!" Jen roared as she lashed out a tentacle at Junior, but the swordsman whipped his sword forward and he cut the tentacle in two.

"Actually Jen I grow bored of you. Time for a move that will bring the house down quite literally." Junior said as his eyes started to glow a bright green color.

"What are you doing?" Jen asked an expression of fear appeared on her face.

"Only this! I call this moving bring down the house or the gym in this case!" Junior shouted as he threw several spheres of energy into many multiple directions. Just before each sphere hit Junior ran out of the building like a bat out of hell. A second later each sphere hit its mark and within a matter of seconds the whole gym roof and all came crashing down on top of Jen's head.

While the monster was screaming and cursing at Junior the young teen and gone over to the cafeteria and he recovered a very large propane tank that was sitting right behind it. He was rolling it along the ground until he reached the ruins of the gym. While Jen was trying to get up Junior rolled the tank on top of Jen then he quickly backed away from it. Once he was far enough Junior threw a ball of energy at the tank. The tank exploded and Jen and the rest of the ruins went up in flames.

Jen was helplessly trapped under the weight of the ruins as she was burned alive. Junior stood near by and listened to the monster's screams of agony until they died out. Jen was dead and she was now probably on her way to see Kaoru.

"Sorry Kaoru old friend, but it looks like Jen will be bugging the heck out of you now." Junior thought as he watched the flames.

About at three o'clock in the morning Rei arrived with Cloud, Misato and Shinji along with some members of NERV's security teams. Cloud walked up to Junior who was sitting on top of a bench near the burnt remains of the gym and asked "Where is Jen?"

"I think you might not find her smoking carcass since I burned her alive and I destroyed the gym in the process." Junior replied as he turned to look at Cloud.

"Shit. Talk about overdoing it. I guess that bitch is history. Good job I guess." Cloud said as he rubbed his head with his right hand.

"Hey I just used what I had. Besides this school was already a mess when I got here. I probably saved the city a bundle for demolition cost, but I guess they will have to pay for the rubble top cleared away now." Junior commented as a thin smile appeared on his face.

"Hey are you alright?" Shinji said as he ran up to his twin brother.

"Yeah I am ok. I have some good news. You won't have to worry about Jen anymore. She is burning in hell now." Junior replied as he smiled at his brother.

"Well I think you caused enough property damage for one night. Let's go back to the facility. I need some sleep." Misato said as she gave a big yawn.

"I can't wait to get some decent sleep." Junior said as he left with Rei, Cloud, Misato, and Shinji while the NERV security teams stayed behind to clean up the mess Junior made. Later somewhere deep within the NERV somewhere Sephiroth was sitting in a chair in the middle of a dark room. His green eyes suddenly opened up as he said "Jen has failed, but no matter my followers have arrived in Japan and should be here the day after tomorrow."
