Trapped in the world of Final Fantasy 8
Chapter 8 – Duel with destiny: Two brothers rumble
Two weeks had passed since Mark had infiltrated Balamb Garden and he'd successfully become one of the mercenary students. And soon he'd enact his plan he'd thought up to annihilate Rinoa the sorceress and the rest of the FF8 gang.
Anyway Mark was sharing a SeeD-in-Training apartment with a girl called Lin Misawa, luckily she was quite the party animal and almost never in at night, giving Mark plenty of time to himself for stuff like plotting and meditating, well when he wasn't out partying himself that is; hey he had to keep up the appearance of a normal-ish teenager.
Mark sat quietly in his room in silent meditation, the only sound was the faint sound of his breathing and the occasional echoes of people else where in Balamb Garden.
In the vastness of his unconscious mind there was a large flower field filled with dead flowers and the sky was locked in the red streaked sunset.
In his astral form sat Mark at the edge of the field watching the petrified sunset sky. A large shadowy form appeared besides him. The shadow was wearing a white mask with no features upon it and the rest of his body couldn't be seen due to the swirling shadows surrounding him.
'Hello Mark, interesting place, your mind' said the shadow, sitting down next to him.
'Yes I know, what are you doing here, this part of my mind is forbidden to you' said Mark quietly, his eyes watching the sky.
'My Elder Brother and Sister have just informed me that the first scroll has awakened in the Glacier Shrine'
'Kai, you are a fool if you think I'll go there, at my current level the three guardians of the shrines would kill me with ease' said Mark to the being besides him.
(A/N Yes Readers that's the name of the thing hanging around in his mind, I finally decided to give him a name)
The shadow's vanished slightly, revealing a tall blond haired man over 6ft tall, dressed in a plain blue shirt and jeans. Though his face was still covered by the mask. Kai grabbed Mark by the front of his shirt and lifted him off the ground.
'You'll do as you're bloody told, ungrateful brat!' growled Kai angrily tightening his grip, but stopped when he felt an agonizing pain in his right arm and he dropped Mark who landed lightly on the ground.
'Don't tell me what to do, Nii-San, in my mind I make the rules, piss me off and I'll destroy you' said Mark his eyes narrowing and his body giving off killer intent.
'Don't forget I don't really give a shit about Mother and the families mission to bring her back, so piss off out of my mind' added Mark turning and walking away.
'You little Bastard!' yelled Kai, partially transforming into the monstrous demon know as a Soulless. His body grew and covered itself in black-green scales, large bat like wings, each 10ft in length sprouting from his back, and his hands slowly shifted into a pair of claws.
Mark turned slightly and smirked.
'I don't care what you say about your brothers and sister but when you insult our mother…You go too far, now I'm gonna give you a major beating runt!' growled Kai.
'Well then bro, give it a try, but if I win you back off and leave me to my mission of killing the sorceress slut, you and the others can deal with the scrolls necessary for Ultimecia's rebirth.
'Fine, but when I win you will set aside your mission to kill Rinoa for a time so that we can acquire the first of the resurrection scrolls' countered Kai grinning behind his mask, there was no way his little half-brother could beat him.
'Well then Kai-Teme lets see you give me a "major beating" then' said Mark getting into a battle stance a drawing upon some of his dark power, changing him slightly, but not nearly so much as Kai. His canine teeth lengthened into fangs, his pupils turned into slits and his eyes turned to a crimson red, and fairly large grey wings about 7ft in length burst from his back.
The two spread out their wings and propelled themselves in the air, Kai charged Mark and let loose dozens of powerful roundhouse kicks, each of which Mark stopped with a kick of his own.
They each charged dark power to their four limbs and began striking each other with vicious and surprising force. Mark Grabbed Kai by using his other arm he drove it into Kai's delicate area. (OUCH!) Gasping in pain Kai doubled over for a moment then delivered a powerful upper cut to as he drew in closer.
As Mark was thrown back, blood spilling from his mouth Kai flew up and plummeted down with an axe drop kick to the head which sent Mark from the sky, into the ground, hard.
Slowly getting back up to his feet, Mark coughed up some blood and let loose a series of curses from under his breath.
Pausing briefly to draw more dark power, he then once again propelled himself into the air to do battle.
'Fire Thrust!' yelled out Mark encasing his palm in fire and ramming it into Kai's stomach, winding him, as well as burning him a bit.
Kai swiftly span a struck Mark across the face and using his legs he got him into a head lock.
'Let go you bastard' yelled Mark, Kai smirked slightly, happy that he a chance to but his little brother in his place, he had become rather full of himself lately and if he didn't obey their big sister's orders they'd all very well end up dead.
Spinning again he propelled himself downwards, taking mark with him, adjusting his grip so that Mark hit the ground first he then sped up and the two slammed into the ground, hard, really…really hard.
Most of the areas in Mark's mind were blown away by the force of the impact. Kai brushing himself off quickly got back to his feet, he looked down to see Mark laying there battered and bruised and barely conscious. Kai crouched down in front of him and said
'From now on we seek the scrolls, of course if the opportunity to kill them arrives, by all means take it, but don't let it interfere with the true mission. The rebirth of our mother'
'Fine…Kai-Teme…' muttered Mark before his astral form vanished and he awoke, back in the real world.
'Point 1 for me' drawled Kai to himself as he covered himself in his shadow form once again and then vanished from sight.
Back in the real world Mark awoke with a start, his body was hurting all over and his vision was blurry, but from he could see he was in SeeD infirmary, his fight with Kai must have injured his outside form as his astral form was damaged.
'I see that you've finally woken up' said the assistant Doctor, making some notes on her clip board.
'Now are you gonna tell me how you winded up like that in your room or what?' she said giving him the tell-me-or-your-dead-look.
Mark sweat dropped and tried to think of something, somehow he didn't think that "I got into a fight with one of Ultimecia's kids in my mind and somehow my body got hurt too" was a good, enough or believable excuse.
'Now I want to know what happened or am I going to have to get the Commander in here…'
