Chapter 12: Unleashed

Cid checked his gauges for about the seventh time. It had been about 20 minutes since he parted ways with Alex and the rest, he wasn't hat far from the WRO headquarters so his plane would be landing soon. Suddenly he notice a large van trailing the plane from underneath, from the back popped out a turret mounted rocket launcher. Cid tried desperately to pull his plane out of the line of fire, but it was too late. The missile snag the tail of his plane, with enough force to send his plane into a tail spin. Cid tried everything he knew to steer the plane to safety, but just as he regained control he noticed the van preparing its next attack. Cid rapidly began praying to every god he could think of, as he grabbed his spear and flew close enough to a nearby cliff to make a daring jump just as the second missile connected with the plane. Cid struggled to his feet trying to shake off the attack, he noticed the van make a sharp turn straight toward his location.

"F#K,F#k, F#k, F#k,…." Shouted Jr. as he started to run as fast as he could toward WRO headquarters

The van increased its speed as he neared Jr., Cid barley had time to roll out of the way as the van passed him nearly running him over. Jr. started to breathe hard as the van came to a sudden stop in front of him. Out came two Turks, boom sticks ready. Cid gulped heavily as he hesitantly readied himself for battle.

"I must warn you among my circle of friends, I am know as the fiercest fighter!" he shouted with false confidence

Suddenly a speeding sports car screeched its way in between Jr. and the Turks. From out of the drivers seat stepped Denzel, Sword in hand.

"Oh thank God, It's a Strife!" Shouted Jr. in Relief

"You drive I fight, NOW!" shouted Denzel as Cid jumped into the driver's seat and Denzel onto the hood of the car.

Denzel and Jr. sped away as the Turks scrambled into their van. As the chase began one of the Turks made his way to the top of the Van. He pulled out a gun and began firing at the two Heroes, Denzel did his best to deflect most of the gun fire while Cid did his best to keep the car steady. When the Turk ran out of bullets, Denzel leaped high into the air sword raised as he brought it down upon his attacker. The Turk barley had any time to defend with his book stick. As they clashed the Turk kneed Denzel in the gut tossing him onto the top of the van. The Turk leaped onto the van as they began o engage each other in combat, on top of the moving van. Denzel Struggled to hold his footing a he swung his massive sword at the Turk, The Turk in turn took a step back and fired off a sonic blast from his boom stick as the Van hit a bump. The blast knocked Denzel's sword out of his hands sending it flying into the air finally slicing through the roof of his car cleaving the passenger side in two. Jr.'s eye widen as he took another big gulp and increased the speed of the already incredibly fast moving car.

Denzel scrambled to his feet as the Turk came at him. The Turk charged up his boom stick, but Denzel kicked it out of his hands sending it crashing into the ground nearby with an explosion. The Van swerved away causing Denzel to fall flat onto his back on the hood of his van. The Turk started to stomp away furiously at Denzel. Denzel rolled away to the edge of the van where he jumped up on to his feet and threw a kick straight at the gut of the Turk. The Turk stumbled back, he quickly regained his composure and charged straight toward Denzel. Denzel side step the Turk, but he was too quick the Turk spun around catching Denzel in the gut with a sickeningly painful punch. The Turk then grabbed Denzel by the collar of his shirt and tossed him over the side of the van. As he fell over Denzel quickly grabbed on to the hood of the van, as he slammed in to its side. The Turk started stomping away at Denzel's hands, but Denzel flipped himself back on to the roof of the van where he was met by rib shattering kick from the Turk to his side. Denzel landed on the roof of the Van with a thud, as he desperately tried to make it back to his feet. Jr. looked up from the driver's seat of the car to see Denzel on the roof of the van fighting for his life. Cid sighed deeply as he switched the car into curse control and headed for the roof, spear in hand. The Turk driving the van noticed this and took out his gun. He fired at Cid, who desperately tried to dodge the bullets. Jr. started to glow as he aimed his spear straight for the front wheel of the van. He tossed the spear with all the might of his shooting star limit break straight at the van. The spear ran it self with great force into the front side of the van setting off a series of explosions in the engine.

"HOLY SH!T!" shouted Cid as he scrambled his way back into the car.

The van started to topple over from the force of Jr.'s attack. As Denzel and the Turk started to fall over, Denzel jumped back delivering a harsh punch to the Turk's chest sending knocking him over. Denzel back flipped onto the hood of his car and grabbed his sword as he let out a blade beam limit break. The limit break connected with the tumbling car causing it to explode with great force. Denzel took a moment to catch his breathe before climbing into the passenger side of the car. He closed his eyes and tried to rest as Jr. sped toward the WRO headquarters.

"I wonder if my insurance covers this?" asked Denzel breathless

"Who cares every time I hang out with one of you Strife's sh!t goes down. Do you know how stressful that is?" shouted Jr.

"Shut the F&K up!" replied Denzel annoyed, as they continued on.

Meanwhile, John had arrived just in time to come to his sister's rescue. John was reluctant at first to come, bit he couldn't leave his sister alone in a life or death situation, especially with Alex. John leaped into the air sword raised, The Turks barely had time to jump out of the way as John landed between them and his sister.

"What are you doing here? I thought you decided to hangout with your good buddy Samuel Adams?" smirked Lucy

"You know I'm a Coors Man, …besides I shouldn't be leaving you alone with Alex." Replied John

"How'd you know Alex was here?"

"Please you didn't think I heard your little cell phone call? Where is he by the way?"

"He's in the reactor with Rufus."

"I knew he was behind this."

"Yeah join the club. Do you think you can handle these guys?"

"Sure thing, Go!"

John rushed straight at the Turks but had to leap to the side as one of the Turks fired off a shot from his boom stick. One of the Turks started to chase Lucy as she ran away. John tossed a couple of throwing stars at him, but the Turk turned around just in time to deflect them with his boom stick. The second Turk fired of a couple of shots at John forcing his to jump back away from Lucy.

Lucy ran toward the reactor as fast as she could, but was stopped by the Turk chasing her. Lucy spun around and fired a few shots at him, which the Turk deflected with his boom stick. Lucy fired a few more shots as The Turk came at her full speed dodging all bullets just barely. They Turk connected with a thunderous elbow strike against Lucy's jaw. Lucy fell to her knees as the Turk grabbed her wrist with vicious force, tearing the gun from her hand a tossing it a few yards away. Lucy gasped in pain as she lashed his gauntlet covered arm at the Turk. The Turk caught her arm and placed his foot on her back to apply pressure. She was in complete agony as she cried out. Using all her strength Lucy back flipped out of the hold kicking away the Turk in the process.

Lucy threw a back kick at the Turk only for it to be blocked. The Turk followed up by hitting Lucy with a series of vicious punches to the face and gut, knocking the wind out of her. Lucy gasped for air as the Turk stood triumphantly over her. He started stomping away at Lucy, trying to drive her into the ground. Lucy rolled away from the Turk and desperately tried to scramble to her feet as the Turk followed behind her. Lucy tried to defend herself from the Turk's unrelenting attack, but it was no use he was much stronger and faster than she was. The Turk finally delivered one final kick to Lucy sending her rolling across the rocky ground.

Lucy cried out in pain as the Turk started to charge up his boom stick to maximum. Lucy clawed at the ground angrily. The Turk fired off his charged shot blasting a giant hole in the ground where Lucy once was. The Turk smiled at his completion of his task when suddenly he looked up to see the deadly Galian Beast descending upon him from the sky. Lucy tackled down the Turk nearly ripping the boom stick away from his hand as she tossed it aside. Using all his energy the Turk tossed Lucy off of him and tried to scramble away, but this time……she was to fast for him. Lucy leaped into the air landing in front of the Turk lifting him up by his collar. Lucy tossed him with great demonic strength as he landed with a thud on the ground. Lucy ran toward the Turk and started to rain down a series of powerful punches upon the Turk, beating the hell out of him. The Turk replied by hitting Lucy with a strong uppercut then followed up by delivering another kick to her chest. Using the full strength of her Galian Beast form Lucy pounded her fist against the ground sending out shockwaves that threw the Turk off balance. Lucy followed up by tackling down the Turk then going wild by delivering a series of vicious punches against the Turk.

The Turk tried to fight back delivering of a couple of his own punches throwing off Lucy one more time. Turk made it to his feet as Lucy leaped toward his, however the Turk managed to catch her off guard with a surprise spinning back kick, knocking her right onto her back. As Lucy shook off the kick she transformed back into her regular self. The Turk smiled as he ran straight into her tackling her down to the ground. As he stood smiling over her he pulled out a small switch blade from his jacket pocket.

"Enough games little girl." The Turk said sadistically

"Alright then…game over." Said Lucy smiling

What the Turk didn't know was that over the course of the battle the two combatants managed to end up in the same place the Turk had tossed Lucy's gun. Before he could notice Lucy grabbed the gun and blew him away. She took a few moments to catch her breathe before another large explosion came from the reactor. Lucy gasped, she desperately hoped Alex was still ok. Lucy raced off toward the reactor as she took one last look back wishing her brother safety.

While Lucy was engaged in her own fight, John was still trying to avoid his own Turk opponent. The Turk came at john with a series of shots fired from his boom stick. John's ninja agility help him dodge a great deal of the blast, but one of them finally connected nearly forcing John to cough up blood from the hit. John side stepped the Turk then attempted to thrust his sword into the Turks side, but he was too fast. The Turk caught John's sword with his hand then delivered a devastating elbow strike to the back of John's head. The Turk ripped the sword from John's hands then used it to stab John in the gut all in the blink of an eye. John responded punching the Turk in the throat ripping the sword out of his gut then using to slash the Turk across the chest. John took a leap back tossing some throwing stars at the Turk. The Turk countered by using his boom stick to create a huge sonic wave then sent the throwing stars right back at John and knocking him over with the force. John recovered quickly and came at the Turk with a series of sword strikes, The Turk barely hand anytime to dodge or block the strike with his book stick, causing his to suffer numerous cuts. John back flipped over the Turk then slashed at him with his sword, The Turk barely side stepped the attack then delivered a sickening punch to the blade of the sword shattering it to pieces.

John was taken off guard by the attack which allowed the Turk to knee him in the already injured gut, knocking the wind out of John. Using the blunt end of his boom stick the Turk bashed in the back of John's head, knocking him to the ground. Spinning his boom stick the Turk used it like a whip of sonic energy to rain down pain upon John's back. John screamed out in pain as the Turk began his vicious assault. As the pain intensified John's eyes started glow crimson and enraged. But the new demonic strength was still not enough as The Turk's attack intensified. John started to slip into unconsciousness as his body became numb. He felt the life start to slip away from his body as his vision became blurred…and he slowly started to slip…away……..

"I can save you." Came a sinister voice from the back of John's head

"No I fought you all my live…and while I still have a few more seconds of it left I will not give up!" shouted John in his mind

"Fine It's your decision….but remember. If you die you'll loose everything you hold dear." Replied the voice

"If I let loose then everything is lost anyway."

"SET ME FREE!"

"NEVER!"

"YOU Foolish MORTAL! I WILL NOT DIE, because you are incompetent!!!!!"

As the Turk continued to rain down pain upon the defenseless John, he was suddenly thrown back a yard away by some unknown force. As he stood up the Turk could only look on in fear as there standing before him was Chaos. Looking more demonic than ever, surrounded by a blood red, fiery aura, fangs barred, eyes crimson, claws sharp. The Turk swallowed hard as he charged toward the frightening demon. Before the Turk could even blink John rushed up to him, grabbed his boom stick, shoved it down the Turk's throat. Then charged up an energy blast in his hand firing it at the Turk causing him to burst in nothing but blood and flesh. As John stood there basking in the crimson rain, he smiled devilishly as the blood poured around him. The demon turned his toward the reactor where he could feel stronger prey. He flapped his wings as he shot into the sky and headed toward the reactor.

-Earlier-

Alex stood closed off from the rest of his friends surrounded by three Turks. Rufus proceed up the steps to his abdominal machine to prepare for his unholy experiment.

"I'm not going to let you get away with this!" Shouted Alex

"Oh, please you're a broken record." Shot back Rufus

Alex charged toward the machine, but had to leap away last second as the Turks fired off shots from their book sticks. As the Turks leaped into the Air Alex tried to catch them off guard with a climbhazzard limit break. However the Turks fired back with a couple of combined shots from their boom sticks, setting off a massive explosion blowing a hole in the ceiling of the reactor. Two of the Turks jumped out of the hole and headed off after Lucy and the others while one them followed Alex into the adjoining mako containment room. Alex landed on catwalk as the Turk charged up his boom stick. The two clashed weapons causing the boom stick to explode knocking both men off the catwalk and sending Alex's sword crashing into the wall where it became stuck. Both men hit the ground with a thud barely managing to recover themselves in mid air. Alex scanned area for his sword finally seeing it suck in the wall.

"Shit! Guess I have to wing this one." Smirked Alex as he got into a fighting stance

The Turk followed suit as he prepared for hand-to-hand action. The Turk came at Alex dishing out a series of harsh blows as Alex defended and counter attacked. The two were experienced martial arts masters, which showed as there attacks continued to grow in skill and strength. Alex Jumped up and delivered a sickening spin kick to the side of the Turk's head snapping it. As Alex took a moment to catch his breathe, he saw the Turk amazingly snap his neck back into place. The Turk then proceeded to deal a series of vicious punches to Alex's torso. Followed by grabbing him by the arm and slamming him straight into steel floor. Alex screamed in pain as The Turk preceded to slam his fist straight into his gut.

The Turk then lifted up his leg and as he was about to bring it down Alex rolled out of the way and sweep kicked the Turks leg knocking him down. As both men came to their feet Alex hit the Turk with his own series of lighting fast strikes and kicks. After being hit by Alex's last punch the Turk came back with a few kicks of his own. Alex dodged the first two but was caught off guard by the last kick which slammed right into his jaw knocking him down. The Turk rushed toward Alex who rolled out of the way at the last second, then spun around trying catch the Turk with a hard right.

The Turk grabbed a hold of Alex's hand then hit him with a hard elbow strike to the gut followed a vicious punch to the chest. Alex stumbled back in pain as he started to cough up blood. Alex looked up desperately at his sword then ran up toward the wall propelling him self with all his strength into the air. As The Turk followed him up, Alex back flipped in mid Air as he started glow. Alex summed up all his anger and all his strength as he unleashed the full power of his Final Heaven Limit break. The Turk cried out in pain as Alex reigned down destructive blow after destructive blow. As he finished up his powerful attack Alex slammed the Turk into the ground with monumental force.

Alex stood over the Turk exhausted, fists bloodied as he leaped up into the air, bouncing off the wall grabbing his sword, and jumping onto the cat walk. Alex opened the door to the transformation room and rushed in sword raised shouting in anger……but he was too late. Rufus stood inside the pod ready as it was dropped into the glowing vat. Brightly light shot out into the distance for miles blinding Alex.

On that day people could swear they saw that beautifully horrifying light for miles, upon miles. Lucy stood dumfounded as she looked on in horror from the catwalk. John stared at the blinding light with anticipation ready for the coming blood shed. Miles away Denzel, Jr., Cid, Izumi, and the others looked on in awe from the deck of the Shera mark 5, as in approached the reactor.

When the light finally died down out of the machine stepped a new Rufus. He had the body of Sephiroth, including the silver hair. But it was still Rufus' conceded grin and arrogant face attached to the intimidating body. From out of Rufus's back sprouted two get black angel wings spanning great lengths. Rufus smiled as he raised up his hands in triumph.

"I AM A GOD!!!!!" Shouted Rufus

Alex growled as he rushed toward Rufus only to be stopped by the demon Chaos crashing through what was left of the roof announcing his presence before the new Rufus. John roared loudly as shot toward Rufus claws barred ready for attack. As John approached Rufus casually lifted up his sending a cleansing white aura right into the raging demon. John stopped in his tracks as he hung their in the air mesmerized at Rufus.

"Poor pathetic creature." Stated Rufus

"OH MY GOD, JOHN! WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO HIM RUFUS!" shouted Alex angrily

"He's nothing but a mass or rage and emotion, totally over ridden by the sense of blood lust. When a will stronger than his own place dominance over his… he has no choice but to bend to my will." Stated Rufus

John turned in mid air to face Alex as he roared loudly. John's eyes focused on his next prey, not caring of the bonds of friendship, only one thought going through his mind…..DEATH.

"Don't You Dare!" commanded Alex

"Kill Him." Said Rufus casually as he started to laugh

John, the demon Chaos growled loudly as he rushed toward Alex, fangs barred, claws readied, Hell incarnate. Alex readied his sword as John approached. Alex knew that if Rufus got away it would mean the end of the world, there was no time to fight John. But he had no choice, Alex knew that once John turned demon he would stop, not until he got what he truly wanted……an ocean of blood. It had always been John's greatest fear. Alex knew what had to be done, only one of them would survive………….
