A/N: Well I'm back and I'm going to try and get these notes done fast since your all probably hear to read the fic. Okay thanks to my reviewers silvawolf, and Haruko-2020 for reviewing my last chapter, and also thanks to dudeman for reviewing my first chapter. All right then I guess I should start the fic, shouldn't I?

Story: Swordsman Tournament

Chapter XV (15): My Eyes! They Burn! THEY BURN!!!

Aeris was standind in the center of the ring, with a big smile on her face (mostly because she is always smiling...which is kinda odd when you think about it) and she had a large board thingy behind her with the names of all the fighters for the second round. "Hi everybody!" she said and for some reason everyone started cheering (guess the audience is full of Aeris fans or something) Then she pointed to the board thingy behind her and said "Now for the second round matchups!" The board thing lit up with the names of all the fighters and when their matches were. It read:

First Match: Link vs. Trunks

Second Match: Sephiroth vs. Inuyasha

Third Match: Cloud vs. Sesshomaru

Fourth Match: Agrias vs. Ramza

With the fights announced (is that a word?), the next two warriors, Links and Trunks (in case you forgot in the 5 seconds its been since reading where it said it above) were walking out to the ring. They reach the ring and prepare to fight (God that sounds so stupid, I mean what else are they going to do, prepare to balla (thats's spelled wrong I think...wait I just put an author's note in an author's note...creepy) or something) Then they started to dance (What the hell!)...uh...I mean they drew their swords...yeah that's it. Anyway with my random stupidity aside, Trunks and Link were about to start fighting. Then when Aeris announced the fight was starting (because she's the announcer and that's what she does.....Subliminal Message: Ramen is good to eat on Tuesdays!) the two warriors instantly started fighting. Knowing he wasn't better with a sword than Link, Trunks started off the battle throwing those little ki balls that just about everybody in DBZ can use. What Trunks didn't know was, Link's shield (the Gold Shield from "A Link to the Past") could block laser-like attacks. The attacks hit Link's shield and went staight back at Trunks. Trunks didn't even have the time to get a suprised look on his face before several of his own attacks hit him dead-on. Trunks couldn't be beaten that easily, however, and quickly went back on the offensive. He charged at Link with his sword, but the young elf quickly raised his shield and blocked Trunks' sword. Trunks knew how to do more than swing a sword, however, and proved it by kicking Link while his guard was focused on Trunks' sword. Link skidded across the ground for a couple of feet, then managed to get up, although he had several minor cuts and bruises and a busted lip from when he hit the ground. Link had an enraged look on his face and it was obvious that the real fight had just started.

Link threw three of his bombs at Trunks and when Trunks jumped to dodge he shot some arrows at him. Trunks countered this by blasting the arrows with ki blasts, incinerating them. Link decided to fight fire with fire, literally, as he pulled out his Fire Rod and sent a blast at Trunks. Trunks tried to stop the attack with a ki wave, but it didn't work and he was engulfed in flames. As the flames were disappering, Link was suprised to see that while Trunks had many burn injuries he wasn't that badly hurt. Thinking quickly, he pulled out the Ice Rod and encased Trunks in a Wall of Ice. Trunks, who was obvioulsly stuck in the ice, thought of one way to get out. He focused all of his energy and started to transform. Outside the giant Wall of Ice, Link was suprised to see golden rays of light coming out of the Ice Wall. Before he could do anything, the Ice Wall shattered and standing in the middle of where it used to be was Trunks, glowing with a golden aura and with his hari pointed straight up and now gold in color. Hies eyes had turned an emerald-green color as well and Trunks decided to show off the new powers his Super Saiyan from allowed him to use. Before Link could dodge, Trunks charged in front of him and hit him hard in the gut. As Link was doubling over from the pain, Trunks kicked him out of the ring, sending Link into a stadium wall and injuring the poor little elf. With the match decided Trunks powered down to his regular self and walked off the ring and back to the fighter's gathering area.

With the first fight decided, Inuyasha had a smug look on his face. "Well my fight's up next, now what was the name of the poor fool that has to fight me..." Inuyasha said in his usual arrogant tone of voice. Then he continued on, sounding even more arrogant (if that's possible) than usual "Now what was the name of that guy I'm fighting....Soboroth?" Inuyasha was suprised when someone behind him corrected him on his opponent name "Sephiroth" was all the man said. Inuyasha turned around and notieced the person who corrected him was none other than the feared One-Winged Angel himself. Inuyasha quickly covered his suprise with an arrogant grin and said "So your're my opponent" then he looked Sephiroth over "Shouldn't be to tough" he finished and stopped paying attention to Sephiroth. Sephiroth just had a sligh smirk on his face, and deiced to show Inuyasha just how strong he was. Meanwhile, the heros were currently in a bad mood and were pretty angry. They weren't angry at the villians though. They were mad at the author, who was currently eating some popcorn he'd bought from a vendor. Well actually, replace "bought" with "stole" and replace "from a vendor" with "from the heros". Now I'm sure you realize why there all mad. Noticeing that all the heros were about to mob stab him, the author thought of something quickly. "Ouch!" C.B. exclaimed from the pain of thinking fast, then he intiated his plan. "I'll buy you all some popcorn!" he yelled to the heros and they decided not to kill him. "Okay, Cloud go get the popcorn" C.B. said as he handed Cloud enough gil to buy a lot of bags of popcorn. "Why do I have to go?" Cloud asked, not happy with the idea of having to carry all that popcorn. "Because your closer to the vendor, now just go buy about twenty bags" C.B. said matter of factly and stopped listening to Cloud's whining. "I can't carry that much stuff!" Cloud yelled at C.B. and everyone shushed him. Cloud got angry and started to stomp off when someone offered to help him.

Tifa offered to help Cloud and they were about to go get the snacks when someone spoke up. "Yeah Tifa's gonna 'help' Cloud, wink wink" C.B. said and tried to avoid laughing. "Yo foo, you said 'wink wink' out loud" Barret said to C.B. "No I didn't, raise middle finger" C.B. said. Cloud and Tifa started to blush as they realized what C.B. was implying. Then Cloud started to get angry that everyone was messing with him. Meanwhile, the villians evil plan had begun. "Yeah, I got 20 points!" Knives said as all the villians continued to play Scrabble...

Priview for Next Chapter:

Will Cloud get angry enough to hurt the aurthor? Will Sephiroth and Inuyahsa fight next chapter? Will I stop asking you questions? (not likly!) all these answears and less on the next exciting episode of..SWORDSMAN TOURNAMENT! (I put it in all caps so it would look impressive)

A/N: Hope everybody likes this new chapter. I'm really happy, I managed to hit 60 reviews! I'm glad some many people seem to like this. Well anyway as always I'll try (and probably fail) to update sooner. Till then, Bye Everybody!
