Disclaimer: You realize that I don't own FF7 don't you. What? You think I own it? Well then I've got a great hobby for you, now I'm going to throw a stick out in the middle of traffic during rush hour and I want you to get it. Hopefully you've been praticing at your Frogger abilities.

A/N: Sorry it took so long to update, but things get crazy around my house at Christmas (also I got a bunch of new games and got a little lazy). Anyway now its time to thank my reviewers so thanks AnnatheAncient, silvawolf, and Haruko-2020 for reviewing my last chapter. Great news everybody, I've got a new source of inspiration and its a.....LavaLamp (the only problem is that wasn't a joke). Well anyway, your probably all tired of my rambling (looks at audience who are all sleeping) dammit! Ok then on with the fic!

Story: Swordsman Tournament

Chapter Ten: Its Finally over.....hold on a sec! Wasn't that just the first round? *sits puzzled*

Agrias and Squall were preparing to face off as Aeris stood in the center of the ring, annoucing the fight (since she is the annoucner....why the hell did I add this little author note *puzzled*). Agrias was preparing a spell, well Squall checked to see what GF's he had equipped and how many of each spell he had (I always thought that whole "Draw" your spells thing was stupid). When Aeris said the fight was to begin and got off the ring, they started their battle. Agrias started off casting Wall on herself to better absorb damage while Squall tried to end it quickly by charging up Bahamut (you know, they have to sit their and wait for the summons). Agrias managed to cast Wall just before she was hit by Bahamuts Mega Flare attack and luckily the wall blocked most of the damage, leaving her with only minor injuries. Agrias realized that since she didn't have summoning abilities and could only cast White Magic that she had to rely on her Holy Sword skills to defeat Squall. So she tried to hit him with Holy Explosion, but he dodged it and charged foward. He swung his gunblade while Agrias blocked with the shield. He managed to pull the trigger at the right time and the added force to the blow broke Agrias shield in half. Unfortuantly for Squall, this also left an opeining for Agrias counter attack. She quickly blasted him with the Holy Explosion techniques which confused him. Then she used Lightning Stab which silenced him. By this time he had recovered from his confusion, but the silence prvented him from casting any spells. Squall tried to charge at Agrias again, but she quickly sidestepped the attack. As Squall went past her, she hit him with the Stasis Sword, putting the Stop status effect on him. She quickly charged up the Holy spell well Squall was still recovering and just as he recovered from the Stop, she hit him with Holy which sent him out of the ring.

Meanwhile (I use that word a lot, don't I?) a very badly beaten Hojo was returing to his secret hiding spot where he met up with Knives and Legato, who were both wearing big grins. He asked them what they were so happy about and they both happily (while Knives happily, Legato was just less depressed than usual) informed him that they had recruited some new allies. Than they started to introduce the new idiots..er..villians to Hojo. They were, a man in a baboon suit (Naraku from Inuyasha), a woman in a priestess outfit (Kikyo from Inuyasha), A big pink guy (Majin Buu from DBZ, oh and I mean the tall and skinny one, not the fat Buu) and a few people who looked like they should be in some kind of western setting. "Who the hell are they?" Hojo asked, pointing (its not nice to point *grin*) at the people who looked like they should be in a western setting (must name them soon *huff* can't keep writing that long *cough* name *passes out*).............*wakes up* "Those are the Gung-Ho Guns!" Knives annouced, looking happy (wait Knives is happy! RUN!). "Didn't they all die?" Hojo asked and Knives responded "Well didn't you?" Hojo just got an irritated look on his face and said "NO! I used Jenova cells to clone myself and the heros killed my clone!" Then he started to laugh in a manical (and annoying) way. "You see, that's why their back!" Knives said, still smiling (getting kinda creeped out here) "What do you..." Hojo trailed off as realization hit him (OWWW!). "YOU!" he said, pointing at Knives "Injected them with Jenova cells, didn't you?" Hojo demanded to know, and Knives just happily nodded, thinking the know more powerful Gung-Ho Guns could defeat his brother. "Well anyway, we need to make a name for our group" Legato said in hit monotonus voice. So they started to think up a name for their new group and came up with nicknames for themselves. They were also planning on gaining another member...

Elsewhere (HA! I bet you thought I was gonna say "meanwhile" didn't you!?!), Cloud was talking with Sephiroth (before you freak out, in this fic I'm gonna have Cloud and Sephiroth be more like rivals than mortal enemies) well Aeris was talkingj to all of her friends and Tifa was hitting on Reno (before you get any funny ideas, I mean that literally). The Turks were also talking with the group, well Elena was talking (NOOOOOOOO!) since Rude doesn't talk much and Reno was currently getting his face beat in for making an obscene comment towards Tifa (I leave what he said to your imagainations). Sephiroth suddenly started to act a little strange and he told the other he was going to check something out. Getting a little worried by his strange behaviour, Tifa, Vincent, Aeris, and Cloud started to follow him. Sephiroth didn't see them and he started to walk into the stadium (just so you know, think of this stadium as being like a baseball park or something like that). Sephiroth was roaming the abadodned halls , trying to find whatever was giving him this strange feeling. He cursed himself for being lured in here at the same time since the walls had a magic blocking effect to prevent anyone from casting spells within the stadium. He continued to walk down the hall, tracking the source of the strange feeling he had suddenly got well talking to his friends. Then he heard a horrible laugh that he wished he would never hear again. "So the Great Sephiroth has been reduced to this" He heard Hojo saying, souding like there was pity in his voice. "You used to be great, and now your friends with the very people that defeated you" Hojo continued, while Sephiroth just got angrier by the minute. "You know, I could make you strong again" Hojo said with a happy tone to his voice, "Just join us and I'll give you all of your old powers back". Hojo was still in the shadows smiling, happy with his little speech to Sephiroth until he heard Sephiroth laughing. Hojo started to get irritated and came out of the shadows, wearing a very weird costume (its basically his labcoat with a White Cape on his back). Of course, Sephiroth saw what Hojo was wearing and started to laugh some more. Hojo just got even more irritated and decided to introuduce his entire group. Sephiroth stopped laughing as the whole group walked out, but then he immediatly started to laugh again as they were all wearing funny outfits (except Buu, but he looks silly on his own). Hojo got really mad now and he yelled at Sephirtoh telling him to shut up. Sephiroth stopped laughing and pulled out his Masamune, ready to kill the would-be team of villians with one attack. Then he remebered the magic barrier and realized he couldn't use Supernova. Hojo just laughed and said "So you don't want to join us?" and when Sephiroth strated to glare at him he turned around and walked off saying "Fine, but its your funreal" Then all the villians left except one. Buu was still standing their and Sephiroth looked like he was ready to fight. Buu laughed and prepared to fight Sephiroth, wondering what kind of candy he should turn him into...

Priview for Next Chapter:

Can Sephiroth survive a one on one battle against Buu without his magic? What kind of plans does Hojo have, now that he has allies? Will Cloud and the others arrive in time to help Sephiroth? All of these questions and more will be answeared in the next exciting episode (shouldn't it be chapter?) of "Swordsman Tournament"

A/N: Once again, I'm sorry it took so long to update. Anyway, I thank everyone that reviewed and should inform you that I'm not going to stop working on this fic just because I stated another one. Now thats out of the way, does anyone have any suggestions for the name of the group of villians. I already got one from Haruko-2020 but I'm still open to other possibilites. Also ideas for the villians nicknames would be appreciated. Oh and as for the changing the title thing, so far I have one voter for leave it the same and two suggestions for a net title. The suggestions are "Of Battles, Mishaps, and Donuts" and "The Good, The Bad, and The Plain Stupid" It would be very much appreciated if people would vote on whether they want the title to stay the same, or if they want one of those two choices. As a quick note, this isn't necessary but I'd like to make a quick request of everbody. One of my reviewers silvawolf has a fic called "YUFFIE'S CURE" and she having trouble getting review for it. I was just wonding if any of you want to read it and help silvawolf get some more reviews. I thinks its pretty good, and its really random so I think you might like it. Oh I will insert myself next chapter since I got some positive votes for the idea and no one said I shouldn't. Well thats all I have to say so until next update, (which will be a lot sooner) Bye Everybody!
