It's almost the end! This chapter is going to have a sudden twist to it.
Kadaj pushes whatever prize he won into his chest. "Uh oh, he's gonna do a bad thing" Cloud tries to walk away, but trips on his shoe laces. "Aiiieeeeee!" he falls down behind Kadaj. Kadaj lands gently on a ruin and holds up his hand, but seeing Cloud come down like an airplane, he runs off to the side. Cloud crashes into a pile of smoke, but then gets up. "It's been a while, Cloud" Sephiroth's voice says evily. "Who's that? Is that you mommy?" Cloud looks around. "Do I sound like a woman!" Sephiroth shouts. "Is that you grandpa?" Cloud looks around again. The smoke clears to reveal, Sephiroth, wearing...a pink apron over his regular clothes? "You!" Cloud points. "Yes, I'm back from the grave" Sephiroth smirks. "No, you're finally wearing the apron I gave you for your birthday when we were in Soldier" Cloud smiles dreamily. -Back in the day- "Happy birthday dear, Sephy! Happy birthday to you!" a bunch of Shinra employees are singing. Sephiroth is wearing a little party hat that says 'I'm the birthday boy!' "Just give me my presents!" Sephy slams his fists down on the table. "I got this just for you!" Cloud hands him a present wrapped in curtains and tied together with what looks like a belt. He opens it to find a pink apron with a chibi moogle and chocobo on it. "I won't have to get any spills on me when I'm making food with this" Sephy thinks happily. "I hate it!" he lies. Cloud falls down crying and rolling on the floor having one of his famous episodes.
-Back to the real action- "So, why're you wearing that?" Cloud asks. "We're going to see who's the best cake maker in a bake off!" Sephiroth takes out his sword which is now...pink? "Has your sword always been pink?" Cloud asks. "It's not my real sword. This is a pocky sword I made in the Lifestream and all those chefs were so jealous" Sephy smirks. "To the stadium!" Sephy points to the sky. Nothing happens. "Oh, whoops, wrong way" he laughs and points to the Olympus Coliseum. Of course, Sora, Donald, and Goofy are fighting there, but Sephy tells them to leave for a while. "Never get to have any fun" Sora pouts as he walks out. Avalanche takes a seat on one side of the Coliseum and hostages, caught by Sephy, sit on the other. "What's this all about?" Cid leans over to Tifa. "It says they're having a bake off. A WHAT!" she screams. "Go team!" Cid stands up and holds up a picture of Cloud. "I have fans!" Cloud sighs dreamily. "Cheer for me!" Sephy yells at his hostages. "Um, Sephy, Sephy, he's our man. If he can't do it, GREAT!" one of them fake cheers. "I'll kill you later!" Sephy points. "He we are at the all famous Steel Baker competetion. I'm Tseng with my partner Elena to witness this great event" Tseng says from a booth in the seats. "That's right Tseng. We have destructive cake baker Sephiroth facing off against idiotic hero, Cloud Strife" Elena says. "Hey, I'm no idiot!" Cloud shake his fist at the booth.
"What will our grand ingredient be today? Lets find out" Elena says as the camera shifts to Yuffie with a huge box in front of her. She takes a bell pepper out of her pocket and takes a bite out of it. "HOOOOOTTTT!" she screams. -A few burning seconds later- Yuffie opens the box and reveals the ingredient. "Who woke me up now?" Vincent sits up. "The grand ingredient is, Vincent Valentine!" Tseng cheers. "I'm a what?" Vincent asks. "You're the grand ingredient" Yuffie smiles down at him. He raises an eyebrow before noticing he's gonna be cooked. "Never!" he tries to leave, but Sephy and Cloud pull him back. "He's mine!" Cloud yells. "No, he's mine!" Sephy pulls on Vinnie's arm as they play tug a war. "Somebody help me!" Vinnie cries. Cloud gets him and starts to mix the ingredients as fast as he can and Sephy does the same. "I'll kill Yuffie for dragging my coffin all the way here!" Vincent mumbles. And then, it was time to put the final ingredient in. "Give 'em a punch Vince!" Barret yells, but Vinnie's fate is already sealed. After a few more minutes, the cakes are baked and Vinnie is nowhere to be found.
"Lets see here. Cloud's cake seems a little medium sized, but still good looking with that nice even strawberry coating. "My mom taught me how to cook!" Cloud cheers. "I'm sure she did. Now lets look over to Sephy's" the camera shifts over to Sephy's humongous cake. "I'm the baking king!" he smiles. "Now that's a new world record huh, Chuck?" Elena asks. "My name is Tseng and yes it is" Tseng grumbles. A few inches away from Sephy you can see Vinnie's clothes laying on the ground. Suddenly, Sephy's cake starts to move and Vinnie's head pops out the top. "Finally out of that!" Vinnie gasps for air. "Where are my clothes?" Vincent frees his one in a half arms. He looks down to see his clothes are right beside the cake. "I had to take off the clothes so they wouldn't dirty the cake" Sephy shrugs. Vinnie blushes like crazy and goes back in the cake. "I only got his arm" Cloud sighs. The camera zooms in on his cake to see a claw sticking out. "Well, we know who the winner is now. The still champion Steel Baker is, Sephiroth!" Elena cheers. "Boo!" the hostages boo. "Don't make me come over there!" Sephy points. "No, fair! You stole all the bishieness!" Cloud takes out his sword. "Uh oh, this is gonna get messy" Cid calls over the Sierra. Tifa and the others push the cake on board and take off.
Sephy and Cloud run all the way back to the ruins and prepare for battle. "Cloud, I am your father" Sephy smiles. "No!" Cloud falls to his knees. "Just kidding!" Sephy laughs. After throwing him off guard, Sephy flings him away with his sword. Cloud lands onto of a building and Sephy lands right behind him. "You lost your Geostigma?" Sephy asks. "Oh, yeah!" Cloud smiles. "How unfortunate. It's all the rage in the kids, you old man" Sephy smirks. "Old! You're the one with the gray hair!" Cloud points. "It's all natural silver" Sephy combs his hair with his hands. "So is mine!" Cloud tries to comb his hair with his hand, but ends up getting cuts all over his hand. "Anyways, just what are you hoping for?" Cloud asks. "The spirits of the deceased who carried Geostigma" Sephy begins. "That, with the flow of the Lifestream, that guides the flow of all worlds, eventually infringes on the planet" he says. "What I hope for, Cloud...is to use this planet as a ship to sail the darkness of space and cheese" he answers. "Just as Mother did before you see" he lifts his hands and these crazy dark clouds form and swirl around the whole place. "I'm afraid of the dark!" Cloud screams. "Here's a teddy bear" Sephy throws one at him. "I'll call you Zack in memory of my very special friend" Cloud puts a little mini buster sword on the bear's back and gives it a Soldier costume.
"As I was saying! One day we will discover a new world. We will create our shining future on that ground" Sephy continues. "What will happen to this planet and my teddy bear?" Cloud asks. "Who knows...that depends on you, I guess" Sephy answers cooly. Cloud puts the bear in his butt sword holder and jumps at Sephy as he jumps at him. The darkness starts to flow through Midgar (And not just because of that Ansem dude). Denzel is clutching his head from the all powerful migrane and Marlene is just watching when she suddenly hears something. "Oh, no! She's back!" she cries. Sephy and Cloud are fighting on these sloping buildings (Why aren't they falling off?), trying to keep each others swords at bay. They jump, but Sephy jumps higher and flies down to Cloud as he's just watching like the idiot he is. He's wacked into the ruined Shinra building. Cloud gets back up too see Sephy charging at him like a football player. Cloud swings his sword and clashes it with Sephy's, creating these crazy yet deadly flying sparks. They start jumping around and rolling in the room, clashing swords whenever they get the chance or whenever their magnetic shoes let go of the walls. Sephy goes into a different room leaving Cloud jumping cluelessly, until Sephy jumps in his way, holding up a pedestrian sign.
Sephy chooses the time to throw a support stand at him. "Hey!" Cloud dodges it. They clash swords again and they try to do it harder a second time. "Oho...What made you stronger?" Sephy pushes harder against Cloud's sword. "My hair gel, but I won't tell you the rest" Cloud tries to equal his push. Cloud wacks him to the ceiling and jumps after him to the outside. He looks up to see a huge chunk of the Shinra building coming down at him. "It's raining ruins!" Cloud jumps and flies over to another building. He looks back to find Sephy in front of him like a crazy stalker guy. They clash again before Cloud jumps up and swings his sword down only to find Sephy not there. "He's not playing fair! He's got all the powers and what do I have? An appointment for butt surgery!" Cloud pouts. He looks over to see Sephy land on a building top and slice it. He jumps away, having Sephy following him clash blades again on another building top. Sephy jumps up the Shinra building and looks down at Cloud. "I thought of what to give to you as a gift" Sephy smiles. "A new jug of hair gel?" Cloud asks. "Wrong!" Sephy goes up even higher and slices down a piece of the building. Cloud dodges it and goes up to him to clash blades again.
"Tell me what you got me for Christmas!" Cloud growls. "I'll decide that!" Sephy smirks. "Shall I give you despair?" he asks, throwing Cloud away from him. Cloud sticks his sword into the building and gets on. "Man, I hate high heights" he looks down at all the burning ruins Sephy threw at him. He looks back up at him. "Kneel, and show me your figure, begging for forgiveness" Sephy looks down at him. Then this gigantic piece of the Shinra building falls off. Sephy turns around and slices them all into two. "You gotta be kidding me!" Cloud shrieks. He steps back onto the handle of his sword and takes out another blade. He sticks it right next to him and puts his other foot on it. "Ready Zack?" Cloud asks. The bear says nothing. He jumps in the middle of the both of them and grabs hold of their handles, smoothly backflipping. He slices the ruins falling onto him with both blades. One ruin he slices has a surprise Sephy inside. He clashes his sword with Sephy's and fall onto another falling ruin. They jump off and land on separate ruins falling with each other. "I'm outta here!" Cloud jumps up to the ruin above Sephy and cuts his way out.
He lands on another building and falls to his knees. "I knew I shouldn't have eaten that Halloween candy without checking it" Cloud holds his stomach. He gets back up to, just in time, dodge Sephy's sword. He dodges his swings, but gets punched in the face and goes down for a bit (Sephy's never used his fists before!). Cloud gets back up to dodge Sephy's blade, but not his punch or his kick. He's up against the wall when Sephy's sword stabs right into his shoulder. "Hey! I just got a shot there! And who said you could use your fists? It's in your contract that you can only use your sword!" Cloud looks up at him. "I ripped up that thing" Sephy smiles. "What is most important to you?" Sephy asks. "My hair!" Cloud gives him a thumbs up. Cloud tries to take the blade out of his bleeding shoulder. "Would you give me the happiness of stealing it from you?" Sephy asks. "Not my hair!" Cloud thinks. Then Cloud remembers Zack, Tifa, Denzel and all his friends especially his teddy bear. "I guess they're important too" Cloud shrugs a little. He thrusts the sword out. He sticks it into the wall and gets back up with his sword. Sephy easily takes the sword out and jumps back. "I pity you who understand nothing" Cloud stares him down. "Hey! I'm the only one who can pity the foo! Let me go down there and pity dat foo!" Barret yells as Cid and Yuffie hold him back.
Sephy charges at him, but Cloud throws him up to a pole. Sephy jumps off and meets in the air with Cloud. "There is nothing that isn't important, except chores. Those bug me" Cloud says. Cloud swings his sword like crazy and releases several swords out of it. Sephy is surronded by the circling swords (The move looked like something from the Matrix). "I bet this is gonna hurt" he pulls out a small umbrella. Cloud glows all yellow and slashes Sephy. He goes to another sword and hits him with that and it keeps going on and on until he's done it with all swords. He lands and catches his regular sword with his other ones in a circle around him. "Stay there for me, trapped in my memories. That way you can teach me how to make a cake like you can!" Cloud looks up at Sephy. The sky clears and Sephy's black wings happens to pop out. "I, I won't become a memory. And take this" Sephy throws a pink book down at Cloud. Cloud picks it up and reads it. "Sephy's Cooking Book. Make your own special bakes with the book of the almighty cooking god. Thanks Sephy!" Cloud waves up to him. "Anytime dude!" Sephy waves and wraps his wing around him as he disappears. "He may have all the powers, but I still got the stunts" Cloud smiles.
