Author's Note: This and later chapters are for adults only as they contain sexual scenes.

This chapter was supposed to be an ending where Cloud confronted Aerith and Sephiroth (like the KHII "Showdown of Fate" but with Aerith in place of Tifa) but I couldn't bring myself to write Cloud in character. He is too emo and I do NOT do angst. It's just no fun to have all that angsting and unresolved sexual tension between him and Sephiroth. So in this humorous parody of "Showdown of Fate," the characters are OOC. Cloud and Sephiroth duel with …their swords. cough)

Epilogue Part One: Scandalous Showdown of Fate

Aerith opened the door, annoyed at the impatient knocking and ready to tell off Sephiroth. To her surprise however Cloud stood in front of her house, not Sephiroth.

"Aerith-" his greeting was cut off when Aerith quickly grabbed him and pulled him inside.

"By the Planet! You have to leave!" she said in panic. Sephiroth was due to arrive any time now.

"It's all right Aerith, I know all about it. I don't blame you at all. It's all his fault, obviously. He can be very persuasive, making you believe there is no choice but Darkness. Don't worry, I'm here now."

Aerith paid no attention to Cloud as he continued to babble on about how he was searching for his Light. She was too busy frantically thinking what she could do to prevent bloodshed as she heard familiar footsteps rapidly approaching.

"…and so I will save you!" finished Cloud as he embraced the startled girl and kissed her on the mouth. Right on cue the door was kicked open as Sephiroth, his keen hearing having detected the sound of Cloud's voice inside Aerith's house, made his entrance.

Cloud jumped back with Aerith in his arms as Sephiroth drew his preposterously long sword. Jade eyes narrowed when Cloud protectively positioned himself in front of Aerith, Buster Sword in hand.

"Go away, Cloud. Aerith and I have certain affairs to see to," ordered the ex-general, pointedly stressing the word "affairs."

"No, don't fight!" said Aerith as Cloud growled and stepped forward.

Leon appeared in the empty doorway, drawn from his nearby house to investigate the crashing noise from Aerith's dwelling. As always, he sought to look out for his friends, especially Aerith who was physically the weakest of their group. He swiftly assessed the situation and focused on what was important.

"Aerith are you okay?" he asked. "Sephiroth, Cloud, back off for a moment. I'll take Aerith to safety. I'm sure none of us want her to get hurt and this place is too small, she might get hit when you start fighting."

"No! Don't fight here, you'll destroy my house," said Aerith.

"That's right," Sephiroth agreed. "This is her house, you should respect it. Now both of you leave."

"There's no way I'd leave her alone with a homicidal maniac like you," said Cloud.

"I was invited to stay the night here," said Sephiroth.

"I have a standing invitation to stay with her whenever I want!" Cloud countered.

Aerith shrank away as three pairs of eyes turned to her. Clearly they wanted her to decide who was to stay but how could she decide between her current lover and her best friend?

"All of you will leave!"

"Aerith your door is broken, it's not safe from the Heartless, you should stay with me," interjected Leon. Both blondes glared at him threateningly and he raised his hands as though to show he meant no harm. "Hey, we're just friends."

"Aerith, just tell Cloud to leave. You need to let go of the past now that you've found someone better. He's never here for you anyway. I bet he doesn't even know how to please a woman properly," said Sephiroth.

"What the hell!" Cloud was irritated at the slur to his manhood. "Tifa said I was the best and she should know, she's had plenty."

"She probably says that to everyone," said Sephiroth.

"I'm not gonna take this from you," Cloud seethed. "Look at you! Your girly hair and that laughable excuse for clothing you're wearing just screams 'gay.'"

"Says the crossdresser!"

"I can please you better than this freak…" Cloud attempted to take Aerith in his arms again but she eluded him.

"Hmph," said Sephiroth, smirking and sheathing Masamune. "Is that so? Then I challenge you to a contest."

"What kind of contest?" asked Cloud.

"Whichever of us can give the most pleasure to Aerith wins! The other one leaves and never returns to Radiant Garden."

"Done!" said Cloud, putting down his own weapon. They played paper, scissors and stones to settle on who would go first and Cloud won. Aerith didn't know what to do as the two most important men in her life came towards her with identical expressions of lust.

"Erm, one at a time!" said Aerith.

"No, it's a contest," said Sephiroth.

"Who decides who wins?" said Cloud, glaring suspiciously at his rival.

"Aerith."

"No, not me. I can't!" said the object of their contention. There was no way she would be able to chose, the two were important to her in different ways.

"I'll judge," offered Leon, not wanting to miss the spectacle.

Cloud was already carrying Aerith to the bedroom. Sephiroth followed closely at his heels, taking his clothes off along the way. Once there, Cloud eagerly ripped off Aerith's flimsy pink dress.

Leon was fascinated to see that she wore nothing underneath. His eyes were immediately caught by her pussy, the first hairless one he had ever seen. He thought it made Aerith's nether region look charmingly smooth as well as even more exposed and vulnerable than usual.

All these years he had stayed faithful to Rinoa, his first girlfriend, so he has never seen any other girl naked before. He couldn't help but compare the two girls. Aerith had only slightly larger breasts. They were milk-white and perky, with tenderly pink nipples. Her waist was tiny, her stomach flat and her legs nothing short of spectacular. They were very long and shapely. All in all, he was forced to conclude reluctantly, Aerith had a better figure than his lost sweetheart.

He consoled himself with the thought that Rinoa wouldn't mind that much. She had always known he loved her the most and was faithful, no matter how many beautiful women had thrown themselves at him. Anyway he was just watching…

Cloud had lost no time in tossing Aerith on the bed. Now, to her alarm, he was tying her to the bed with his belt. He paid no attention to her protests and struggles. Leon was about to intervene when Sephiroth, having finished removing all his own clothes, grabbed Cloud by the back of his neck and flung him away from the bed.

"She's saying no, you idiot," the dark angel hissed at Cloud. "You lose right now since you obviously have no idea what you're doing."

Sephiroth untied Aerith and started passionately kissing her.

"She wants it!" said Cloud. Then, seeing that no one was listening to him, he speedily removed his own clothes and joined the two on the bed. Seizing Aerith's ankles, he spread them wide apart and pressed his mouth between her legs, intent on making her come as fast as possible in order to win the contest.

Sephiroth broke off his kiss, his view of proper sexual conduct outraged by the spiky-haired blonde's impetuous behavior. "How crude can you be? A truly sophisticated lover takes his time. You don't just rudely grab body parts like that…Aerith you can tell he's no good."

There was no reply to Sephiroth's complaint as his opponent's mouth was busy ravishing Aerith's most intimate place. Cloud was laughing to himself however as he was confident of winning the game, sophistication be damned. Women, he felt, simply could not resist a vigorous tongue lapping their clitoris. Aerith was proving to be no exception as she was already writhing beneath his mouth. Cloud inwardly crowed in delight when he heard Sephiroth swear, as both of them realized that Aerith was close to orgasming after just a few minutes of stimulation.
