A/N - As usual I do not own Square-Enix or any of the FF games but I do own the other characters. (e.g. Pia Jackson and Antony Yubari.)
"Instructors Dincht and Trepe, stay where you are. That's an order." Squall shouted as he turned the corner of the building near Timber Maniacs.
"Commander!" They both exclaimed in unison, turning around to see Squall running to them. He wasn't even out of breath due to his stamina being so high.
"Listen, I'm just here to help out that's all because I knew that it would have been pretty devastating to lose all of you in this thing. I'm here to assure all of you survive, besides Rin wouldn't have forgiven me if I just left you here by yourself." Squall said, noticing their faces turn into one of understanding and happiness.
"Uh Commander did you leave Squad C with Miss Heartilly because I don't see them anywhere?" The cadet asked with a bit of anticipation in his voice.
Zell knew why it was that Squall had left them there and he was about to tell Quistis and his squad the news that the broadcast was about to start when the Galabadians caught them by surprise.
"They're still there and that's because the broadcast was about to be made and we needed to know what it was." Squall said "Anyhow they can take care of themselves due to the fact that they're actually with a fighter who has actually trained with me and has improved greatly since we beat Ultimecia." Squall continued, giving a wink at Zell and Quistis.
They knew what the wink meant, it meant that he had told Rinoa to use any means essential to take it but. That also meant she would be able to her powers that Squall had mentioned to the cadets but only referred to as "training".
"Sir have you got a plan for how we are going to combat the Galabadians or is this just a pep talk?" Pia asked, her voice had a bit of anger in it but not an ounce of nerves. This surprised Squall somewhat and yet reminded him of how he was before meeting Rinoa at the inauguration party.
"Cadet Jackson, I saw how you fought against the Galabadians in your previous encounter with them. I have to say I was quite impressed with your fighting skills but they do NEED improvement!" Squall put the emphasis on the improvement, due to the fact that he was actually like her in the fighting department at the same time of his exam.
"Hey you SeeD punks, are you going to stand there all day and discuss different topics or are we going to start fighting because I want to see you all bleed." A Galabadian said, as he started to laugh at them and what he had just said.
"You stupid fool, don't you recognise three of them from anywhere in particular." Wedge mentioned, turning to the soldier that had said it and he just shook his head.
"They are the people who defeated Sorceress Edea and Seifer Almasy two years ago and stopped our invasion of Esthar." Wedge continued, noticing that the soldier's face had gone from smug into one of horror as he recognised the faces.
"So you want a fight do you, well get prepared because no one calls a Seed a punk and get away with it." Zell chirped up, he turned to Squall and Quistis who just nodded in agreement with what he had said.
"Cadet Jackson we'll split into two groups, your group will be the cadets and mine will be me and the instructors." Squall instructed her, all she did was nod in agreement. He knew she was eagerly to get fighting and after what the soldier said, he was ready too.
Pia, Antony and the other cadet in the squad prepared themselves mentally and physically for the fight ahead. Pia started to spin the Sai's in anticipation for the battle ahead.
Squall, Zell and Quistis just stood there examining the opponents weaknesses. Squall had fount quite a few of them and he could exploit them to prepare himself physically for his limit break.
Rinoa was still in shock over the announcement. All she do was go over the last part again and again.
'Maybe that's why Ultimecia hasn't took over my body yet for. Maybe she's here or there's another sorceress.' Rinoa thought that the first option was highly unlikely due to the nature on how would she have got here.
"Miss Heartilly, are we going to enter the Television Station now or are we going to wait a bit longer?" A cadet asked, almost instantly bringing her out of her thoughts.
"Yes cadet, we're going in right now. Let's get this over and done with, before we get anymore bad news." Rinoa replied, noting how the cadets quickly moved out and started on their way up the stairway once again.
'Damn it Squall, I now know how you felt when we pulled you out of your deep thought.' Rinoa was thinking before giving out a little smirk about he whole thing.
She the started up the stairway, following the cadets, to the walkway leading into the Television Station.
Pia was fighting as hard as she can, she noticed two soldiers preparing magic attacks, so she prepared to cast Haste to make herself more quick and agile against the soldiers.
Squall motioned to Zell and Quistis to create him some space so he could start his preparations for the Renzokuken. They nodded and started to create some space for him.
Zell was side-stepping every slice the two soldiers he was facing could try. They were just too slow and they couldn't match him at all. He went in with Heel Drop on one and then a Dolphin Blow on the other to finish them both off.
Quistis just let her whip crack and proceeded to make wounds on each soldier that came within striking distance of her. The soldiers let out moans as they felt the flesh being ripped off their chest as the whip hit them.
Zell looked over at cadets and saw them Antony and the other cadet was working in unison with each other. Then he saw what he saw in the battle before.
Antony signalled to his comrade, that two soldiers were confused by the whole battle. The cadet just nodded and just started to evade their attacks, whilst Antony was waiting for the exact moment on which to strike.
He saw his opening, just as the cadet got caught by a sword on his leg and went down to one knee. Antony saw the soldiers sword go up preparing to slice right down.
Antony went into his pouch noting that the other soldier was cheering the other on. He threw the Shurikens as fast as he could knowing the trajectory was perfect.
The soldiers had no idea what was happening when the Shurikens sliced both of their throats in absolute unison. They had no way to prepare and Antony could already see the blood start flowing from the wounds.
He went over to his comrade and nodded to ask if he was alright to continue fighting on. The cadet just nodded back in agreement, they looked around and saw that Pia was taking two on at the same time.
She ducking and side-stepping every attack, thanks to the Haste spell, she knew they wouldn't be able to keep up with her. She was just biding time preparing her own limit break.
All Antony and the cadet could do was just watch on. Pia saw her opening and dropkicked the soldiers in quick succession, then she threw the Sai's up one at a time.
She was ready and then she pulled the chain from the side of her and it wrapped around the neck of the closet soldier. She started to pull on hit, at first gently and then harder. She looked up at times to see where the Sai's were, then she pulled a solid silver hairpiece put of her hair and threw it into the leg of the soldier bringing him down to one knee.
She retracted the chain and almost instantly wrapped it around the neck of the second soldier, she pulled on the chain much harder then on the first soldier and he went down to one knee. He was gasping for air, when she saw the first Sai almost in position.
She then released the chain and went straight into a back somersault, she caught the first Sai as she landed. She threw the Sai as hard as her arm would allow, it drove straight into the back of the soldier on one knee due to the hairpiece still being in his leg.
She started so spin as fast as she could, which due to the Haste spell made her faster. The second Sai was just in the position and she prepared to catch it. When she caught it, she knew that she had enough velocity and threw the Sai.
It went straight through the soldier with the first Sai in his back and straight into spine of the second soldier. She slowly stopped spinning, assessing the damage she had caused.
She slowly walked over to the now bloodied bodies of the soldiers that had just been standing. She bent down and picked up her chain and then her bloodied Sai's from the back of each soldier.
Zell and Quistis was amazed at the limit break they had just seen from Pia and wondered if it had taken her years to master the trajectory of the Sai's in the air.
Squall was ready and launched into Renzokuken, whilst Pia, Antony and the other cadet had caught up to Zell and Quistis. Pia could tell that the Instructors were amazed by the attack she had just performed.
They looked over and saw Squall connecting each time and flawlessly pressing the trigger on Lionheart. All they could hear properly was the moans of the soldiers and the banging from the barrel of the Gunblade as Squall pressed the trigger.
Zell and Quistis watched as Squall moved back to launch his ultimate limit break. They knew it devastating as it was impressive to watch.
"Lionheart!" Squall shouted as the Gunblade began to glow. He launched himself at the last group of Galabadian soldiers, and with one stroke they all went up into the air. Squall followed in hot pursuit, not giving them time to recover and started to launch blows left, right and centre.
He saw the soldiers fall like fly's and he noticed that they had somehow snuck in an SAM8OG into the fray of battle.
"The bastards, they thought that it wouldn't be noticed." Squall shouted, knowing the final strike would be on the robot. He just carried slicing the Galabadians.
He knew that he was almost at the end of the attack. He had sorted most of the soldiers but left the other one to the rest of the group, he turned his attention to the SAM8OG and delivered his final slice of the attack.
The SAM8OG just fell apart as Squall landed on the floor and went down to one knee. He knew it was a dangerous attack to do because it took so much out of him.
"Commander are you okay?" Zell ran up and asked him, watching the soldiers run away as fast as they could. Squall nodded and then thought of Rinoa and how she was doing.
"Squad B meet up with Squad A and go to the Television Station. We will meet you there." Squall ordered them and they saluted him before going to meet the other squad.
A/N - What will happen now and is Sorceress Ultimecia the real one or not?
