Chapter 7
A Fight Among Sisters. What was Done in Darkness Comes to Light.
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Alena had just punched Tifa for had seemed the thousandth time. Tifa was falling to the ground with more blood coming out from her. Tifa wasn't giving up.
"Why Tifa? Why get up? Don't you see? You'll only die if you get UP!" Alena had grabbed her sister to by the collar and swung her body through the air. Flinging her to the wall. Tifa was now seriously injured.
Cloud was about to step in but…
"If you step in he'll die! If you try to save him he will die! Tifa is the only who can win this battle if she can! And she's the only one who will save that child even if it means she dies or I die!" Alena's eyes looked like a child. But she meant it. She could not be saved. Sephiroth had poisoned her mind.
Tifa had slowly gotten up. Her hand touching the walls. She was breathing in slowly trying to catch her breathe. She was thinking.
"Is…is this all you got?"
Tifa lifted her head smirking. She knew her sister was holding back. Tifa was determined. She knew her sister was going to kill her but Tifa wanted her sister to show all her true powers. She didn't care if she was going to die or not. She knew if she died at her sisters hands. Cloud would make sure that she would die at his hands. If not then someone else's which was least likely.
"You want to see my true strength? I guess you do know what you're up against. Very well I'll show you what you're really up against!" Alena reached for her, well what seemed to be a necklace from her inside her jacket. It was the same as Tifa's except it seemed to have a black materia in the middle.
Alena placed it around her neck and everyone sensed the dark energy around her, "Watch the power of the Ancients, Watch and admire the great power of the black materia!"
Alena face looked like she was in pain. But she was really enjoying it. Soon something was starting to sprout from her back. A black wing sprouted out of her back. Soon another... Alena was sweating from the pain. But she smiled. She looked like a dark angel if nothing else a demon with wings from hell. She smiled and started to laugh. An evil laugh. "Are you satisfied BIG sister! Now you know what I'll do. Kill you off nice and slow."
Denzel was still hanging over the Mako poison. He slowly opened eyes and looked down to see everyone down below them. He saw Tifa and could see she was in terrible condition. "TIFA!" Everyone looked up and saw Denzel wide awake. Tifa turned to see him and smiled. She nodded her head.
He knew then that meant that she was going to save him and that she was going to make sure he was alright. Alena was disgusted at the thought and turned to her sister. She flew up into the air with her wings and gathered energy in her hands. "FIRAGRA!" she sent a black flame towards Tifa that could definitely kill her if not make her entirely worn out.
Tifa turned to her sister and saw the black Fiagra coming towards her. "Counter attack Iceagra!" Tifa cast the spell to stop the black Fiagra from hitting her. But the flame went through her attack and straight to her. Tifa almost dodged. The attack hit her left ankle. She could hardly walk anymore.
Tifa fell hard to the stone floor. "Sister dear… you hurt? Don't worry little sister will make sure you'll be out of your misery…" "b-but first… why don't you tell me…what turn you this way?" Tifa said lying there looking at her sister coldly.
"Well I guess I could grant you that before I kill you. As father told you that my heart was going out on me that part was true. What wasn't true was that I was thrown into the dumpster and wasn't cared for.
Soon after Hojo found me and decided to take care of my heart. He fixed me by inserting JENVOA cells into my body. I was immune and it cured my heart.
He raised me in his underground lab. He told me about how I was abandoned. Soon he made me apart of SOILDER. One of the best. I trained along Zack and Sephiroth. When they were sent to Neiblehiem I stayed in Sector 7 with another mission." "And how come I didn't hear about you, or see you!" Cloud interrupted. Alena turned to him in a harsh cold look but Cloud stood his ground. No woman could scare him besides Tifa.
"Well I was a secret to other soldiers, especially guards. When I heard about Neiblehiem I looked for Sephiroth. I worked with him secretly. I fell in love with him. He helped me with my past. Telling me about my twin sister, my cruel father and everything. He helped me discover my powers. And I will do anything to repay him. My dream… is to help fulfill his…And that's to have the black materia and the white materia." Tifa stood up after the history of her sister.
"Bullshit." Tifa said wiping away the blood from her mouth.
"What did you say!"
"You heard me… that's bullshit. Sephiroth don't give a damn for anyone but himself. If he gets his hands on the white materia and black materia. Hell will break loose. Everyone will die at his hands. Even you Alena! Since you say you two are in love."
"That's big talk for a girl who is defenseless. Especially when you are here for a selfish reason besides the earth's safety."
"Well 1 I'm not defenseless."
"Oh really? From here it sure does seem like it."
"Really…" Tifa reached from her own pocket and grabbed her necklace. She placed it around her neck and smiled at her sister. The smile was like 'I told you so'.
Tifa placed her hands on her face and let the pure energy surround her. Everyone was shocked at what was happening, even Alena was speechless. Soon Tifa sprouted wings expect hers was white. Her outfit even changed color. It was now white like her wings. When Tifa's transformation was over she could only feel the pureness around her. All of her wounds were healed and her strength tripled from her original state.
"And 2nd I have much more good reason. You took my son away from me."
"Oh please he doesn't even have your blood."
"And! Even though he doesn't have my blood, genes, or looks, he's my son no matter what anybody says. I know in my heart that he's my son. His place is with me, and Cloud, and as his mother. I'll be damned if anybody takes him away from me. I'll make sure that their blood will be on my hands. As long as he's alright and that he's happy… I'm happy."
Those words. Those words are what Denzel always wanted to here. No one ever called him there son. It was the first time he's heard that word (even though he heard it before calling to other young boys but not saying to him). He knew now that he was loved for sure. That he has a place to call home. With Tifa and Cloud. He finally had a family. Denzel began cry those words touched his heart.
"GO TIFA! GO AND WIN! YOU CAN DO IT…MOM!" yelled Denzel above them. Everyone saw him including Tifa. She smiled at him. Alena turned to Tifa and charged towards her. Tifa had let her guard down. At least that's what she thought. Tifa had reacted quickly and caught her sister's punch in her hand. Every time Alena had punched her Tifa dodged it. Soon Tifa punched her and Alena body hit the wall hard.
"Bitch you'll regret that!" Alena flew into the air along with Tifa behind her. Tifa caught up with her sister and was above her now. Once Alena came up Tifa punched her in the face causing her sister to hit the wall again. Tifa flew to her and grabbed her shirt and swung her around in her hand and flung her causing her to hit the opposite wall. Tifa flew and grabbed her sister by the collar again and ran with her sister. Alena's face was rubbing against the wall hard.
Alena was in terrible pain. Tifa then drew her body off the wall and threw her sister back to earth. Once her sister hit the ground hard it caused a huge hole in the ground (Show how much force Tifa used!). Tifa flew back down and punched her sister and put more force into it.
Smoke aroused from the ground. No one could see what happened. It was a sand storm. Not even Denzel could see and he was above all of them!
Soon the dust ceased and everyone could see. Tifa was on top of her sister. She had her hand that had a white ice in it. It was indeed the spell Iceagra. Tifa held it back and tears ran down her face.
Tifa had the upper hand and she was one punch away from finishing her sister off. "Alena… I beg of you please…give up and I won't have to kill you!" Alena only smiled a little to her sister.
"I…I'm sorry Tifa but…I can't." her sister whispered. Alena was exhausted from using a lot of her energy with her sister. And being beaten up by her.
"If you don't kill me… I will be killed…It is fate…Sephiroth and Shrina has screwed my life up already… you were lucky… you had papa and mum…I had no one…you have a man that loves you and a son… I will never understand what it is to be loved like you are…I was misfortune it…I beg you Tifa kill me now… don't hesitate…I want to be but out of my misery…please…" her sister was stirring of the pain. Tifa shook her head rapidly and Iceagra disappeared in her hand. She grabbed her younger sibling and held her in her arms.
"I won't let you die…sister…you can life a normal life…in Midgar with us…you can be normal sister just hold on!"
Alena placed her hand on Tifa's hair.
"Hush sister…It's…to late for me…I'm sorry…I was wrong for doing this to you… just tell our parents that I said…I'm sorry… and that I love them..." Alena pushed her sister away from her and flew up in the air using the last of her energy. She cast a spell on herself.
"Meteor…" Alena smiled at her sister and the finally words came through her cold lips.
"Good-bye sister dearest I love you…see you…" Alena had died right there. In the air above them all even Denzel.
Tifa only cried more. Alena's wings bust and black feathers fell from the air. "Later sister." Tifa cried in a low whisper. Alena's necklace fell down along as one of her feathers from her wings. Tifa held tightly in her grip and placed it in her pocket.
