Story: Swordsman Tournament
Chapter Five: Cloud gets to Fight! and more insanity....
Vash and Legato were staring at each other. Both had aggravated expressions on their faces. They were ready for their duel. Soon the battle for Knives' freedom would begin. Since the place was crowded and Legato didn't have a gun so they decided on a diffrent way to have a duel. The two of them were now sitting next to each other and the audience was watching the two, expecting a fist fight or something like that to break out. "Well Vash the Stampede, are you ready to die?" Leagto said with a cold smile on his face. "Depends, are you ready to lose Legato" Vash replied with a calm smile. Then, Legato pulled out a clipboard with a blank piece of paper on it. Vash pulled out two pencils. The entire audience had a confused look on their faces and someone asked them what they were doing. Vash and Legato ignored him and continued their "duel" until finally Meryl walked over and looked at what they were doing. She immediatly got a suprised look on her face and got a lot of curious stares from the crowd. When someone asked her what they were doing, she stomped back over to Vash and Legato and yelled at them "YOUR'RE DECIDING THE FATE OF ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS MANIACS EVER WITH A GAME OF TIC-TAC-TOE!!!!" Immediatly both Vash and Legato told her to shut up so they could focus on their "game". Everyone in the audinece besides Vash and Legato (yes even Knives) facefell (you know, like they do in animes) and broke out into an uncontrollable laughter (well everyone excpet Vincent, but that's only because he is to angst filled to laugh). Vahs and Legato ignored this and continued to play their game, both sweating and trying to decide their next move in their game which is somehow taking them a long time to finish. Everyone decided to ignore this odd duel and wait for the next fight to start. Luckily for the audience they wouldn't have to wait long as the announcer was already preparing to annoucne the next fight.
Cloud was in the fighter's area preparing for the fight. He was picking good materia to use and strapping on his armor plates, then he attached the Buster Sword to his back. He looked around and didn't see his opponent, but he headed out to the ring anyway. When he got there, he waited around for a few seconds before Hotsuma suddenly appeared before him even though he hadn't even been close to him a second ago. Before Cloud could try to figure out how he did that, a bell rang and the fight started. Cloud pulled out the Buster Sword and started to charge at Hotsuma. The ninja just stood there, as calm as could be as Cloud kept getting closer and closer. Just as Cloud swung and before his blade could connenct, Hotsuma moved out of the was so fast that Cloud barley saw the movment and Hotsuma had gotten behind Cloud and drawn his sword. Hotsuma tried to end the fight with a quick slash at Cloud, but to his suprise Cloud brought his sword around to parry the blow easily. Hotsuma jumped back and tried to figure out how Cloud could swing around a sword that was that big so easily. Cloud quickly counter attacked and the two warriors spent the next several minutes with their blades clashing between them. Realizing he would get worn out from blocking the large sword, Hotsuma devised a plan and intentionally weakened his own guard, leaving Cloud with a perfect oppurtunity. Cloud took it and swung a mighty blow to finish the battle. Hotsuma had been waiting for this and quickly dodged out of the way of the large sword and jumped back, throwing several kunai (little throwing knives) at Cloud. Cloud managed to block several but two went into his right leg and one went into his left shoulder. Hotsuma stayed back and continued to throw more and more kunai at Cloud, but Cloud was now managing to block the blades without further injury. Despite this, Cloud knew he couldn't keep this up forever and he was sure that he would get tired from blocking with the sword faster than Hostuma got tired throwing the little
knives. Thinking fast, Cloud called upon the power of one of the materia in his sword. Within a few seconds, Cloud had sevral green balls of light floating around him and he disappeared. Hotsuma had a confused look on his face, until he heard a noise like thunder roaring about his head. Looking up he saw that storm clouds had suddenly formed in the sky and something was coming throw the lightning. A few seconds later, Hotsuma was face to face with a dragon that goes by the name "Bahamut". Bahamut wasted no time in charging up and blasting his powerful "Mega Flare" attack on Hotsuma. Hotsuma tried to guard against the attack, but still took heavu damage from the blast. When Cloud reapperaed, Hotsuma tried to his him with more kunai, but he was weakend and Cloud easily dodged them. Then, focusing his power, Cloud used his "Blade Beam" attack to send a wave of energy across the ground at Hotsuma. Hotsuma didn't have the strength to dodge the attack and a moment later was thrown out of the ring by the
force of the beam. Cloud didn't say anything, he simply reattached the sword to his back and walked off the ring.
On the way back, he noticed all of his friends cheering for him. He waved up to them and shouted "Told ya I'd win" and then started to laugh happily. "You got luck, Spikey!" Cid shouted back and him and Barret started to laugh at the nickname they'd made up for Cloud. "HA! You won't be saying that when I win this thing!" Cloud yelled back and took a seat. Meanwhile, a group of three people had shown up and taken a seat behind Tifa and all the others. This group of people was no other than the low-life, despicable, blue suit wearing bastards (and bitch) of the Turks (No I don't actually hate the Turks, but I figured this kind of intro suited them). Reno was slum drunk and when Tifa asked how much he had, the always talkative Elena told them that he had drank three bottles of wine, a bottle of whiskey, two jugs of moonshine, and a gallon of pure alchol. When a suprised Tifa said he sould be dead with all that alchol, Elena told her that was just what he drinks in the morning! Meanwhile, Rude had moved
to sit closer to Vincent and the two started a "conversation" (Quick A/N: the following conversation will be done in script format so it will be easier to read, thank you and please enjoy the rest of the fic)
Vincent:......
Rude:.....(shrugs)
Vincent:......(nods)
Rude:......(rasies eyebrow)
Vincent:.......(stares)
Rude:.......(nods)
Then a came by who was serving some alcholic beverages (you know, beer). Reno was the first to order one but then Rude waved to the guy and he came over to Rude and Vincent
Vincent:.......
Vendor:.......(nods)
Rude:......(shrugs)
Vincent:.......(nods)
Vendor: Okay that will be $5 for the drinks
Vincent and Rude eacht hand over two fifty and get there drinks. Everyone else stares at them until Tifa finally asks them "How did you two order those drinks without saying anything". Vincent and Rude just stare at her for a second, shrug, and start to drink their beers. Everyone else just sweardrops (another anime trick) and start to pay attention to the ring again. Just then two new fighters walked out onto the ring. The warriors were Sesshomaru and Beowulf. Beowulf looked confident, where as Sesshomaru just kept a calm, expressionless look on his face. Beowulf had no idea what he was up against.....
Priview for Next Chapter:
Sesshomaru fights Beowulf! Who will win? Will Vash and Legato's "duel" end? Will the Turks annoy the FFVII crew to much and get killed? Why the hell am I asking you when I'm the author? All of these or maybe none of this questions answeared next chapter of "Swordsman Tournament"
A/N: So how did everyone like it? I really think this chapter came out well and hope everyone likes the "Duel" and "Conversation". Oh and just as a side note, I'm going back and reformating my first three chapters. They won't have any new content so don't worry about reading them over agin. Until next time everyone, Bye!
