to be eternaly forsaken part 4

Angeal:

Angeal-(sigh) It's just one thing after another tonight. First, the house burning down by Ruby Creek, then the heartless appearing in the market place, and now this.

I turned to see a soldier incharge of perimeter control walk towards me. he stopped infront of me and solluted.

soldier- Sir, we have the perimiter locked down and are awaiting orders.

Angeal- Continue with clean up until we recieve further orders from Shinra. Also, get an atopsy team down here to look at what's left of the corpses, maybe they can fingure out what killed them.

I turned and looked down in revalation. All of these insidents happening don't seem to have any rhyme or reason to them. The house burningdown in ruby creek can hardly be automaticly labeled as intentional. Though, it was Riku's house and there has seemed to be alot of gossip, though I can't really rely on gossip to make a connection. Then theres the market attack. eye witnesses described the heartless to posses waepons which is extremely odd. Not just that but they were described as completely black silhouette of a person with yellow eyes, and whats more they were speaking. A new heartless? There was also one eye witness saying they saw a black cloaked figure over looking the attack atop a chapel across from the market. Then theres the victims here. Acording to the information we recieved from theire belongings, they were just normal citizens. And the way they died resembles Sephiroth's murder. What is he doing killing normal civilianz?To think some one powerful enough to fight the previous soldier number one would lower himself to kill ordinary people. but then, why would he lea-

Agian explosion snapped me out of my contemplation. I turned towards the explosion to see the blatoon of soldiers responsible for secureing the left side of the scene running towards me.

Soldier- Sir! The rear border control's been wiped out by-!

With a thunderous roar an inferno rose underneathe the soldiers feet and within a split second their forms were lost in the flames. Suddenly a shadowed form appeared in the flames lurching forward. The flames seperated and the figure lurched forward.

Angeal- Genesis! what ha-

Genesis's head snapped up at hearing his name. his eyes were empty, the eyes them selves covered completely in darkness. His left arm was replaced with a silhouette of its former self. in his right hand he held a broken soldier sword. from his back jutted two black wings that seems to be fadeing away like embers in a fire.

Genesis-I couldn't do it.

his voice sounded far away and full of regret.

Genesis- I couldn't join them. I've failed them. Sephiroth, Cloud, Zack...but...now I can try you.

Without warning, Genesis lunged forward. He lunged so suddenly I was barely able to pull out my sword and parry. What have they done to you Genesis?

Genesis: (keep in mind this is looking into his mind in his current state, also read it slowly and kinda confused to get what I was going for)

He blocked me? Why'd he block me? I have to kill him, so why'd he block me? Was he told to live? Then why am I trying to kill him?...Oh...because I was told to. So why is he tryin to live? Will I kill this one? How many times have I failed? Oh, all of them. Then I'll kill this one.

Angeal:(2 minutes into fight)

This isn't him damn it! So stop holding back! He has less skill than before so this should end in my favor, So stop holding the hell back!

Genesis lunged forward again, and I responded by jjumping behind him.

Now! Do it now! He's completely open!

gripping my sword tighter I lifted it and brought it down. With a swift action that Angeal could barely follow, Genesis brought his left arm around and knocked the sword off its path.

Henesis is becomeing more lively. If I don't end this quickly, I'll lose my chance.

trying to use the swords momentum to my advantage, I brought the sword around and aimed for the waist. I poured all my energy into the attack, hopeing to end it in a single blow. The sword hit home and a sickening crunch met my ears. I stood, stareing at Genesis as he stepped back. I felt something trickleing down my chest and looked down. A giant hole had appeared in my chest. unable to move, I allowed my self to fall backwards on the ground. The roar of the fire around me, the remaing soldier screaming as the fire slowly engulfs them, and the the sound of my heart beat, all of them were fadeing away. I looked up to see a figure looking down on me, his face visible by the light of the flames.

This is how it ends? I closed my eyes and allowed my self to fade away.

Pathetic, being looked down like this. Damn you Riku.

Riku:

Xigbar- Well, just when we finaly get Genesis to get a little serious he goes and dies on us.

Xigbar began nudgeing genesis's body. In responce the body turned to ash and collapsed on itself.

Xigbar- Hey, shouldn't you be hurrying before more soldiers get here? I thought Zexun told us to leave no trace we were here.

Riku- (sigh) I need to change his heart with my new keyblade, then I have to erase any memory of us. I also have to set it up so this false heart takes effect whe-

Xigbar- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't need the play by play. I was just wonderin when you'll be done.

chuckleing, I summoned my key blade and walked to Angeal's side.

Riku- Don't worry, Zexion's got us covered. He'll just use his book to decieve them

I lifted the key blade and looked at it for the first time. the blade was black, and on the end, where the curves of the key blade should be, there was a heart shaped grove in its place. I lowerd the key blade over his heard and stabbed. Angeal let out a loud scream. ignoring his screaming, I continued to work with his heart. An hour and a half passed until I pulled the key blade out.

Xigbar, who had been lying down stood up and stretched his muscles.

Xigbar- What was the purpose of this again?

I Dissmissed my blade and began to stretch as well.

Riku- first to test the key blade to see if it worked, second to a powerful agent inside the school.

Xigbar-Huh, sounds pointless to me. Alright lets get Zexion and head back, Knowing Zexun, he's probably already set our next assignment.

Xigbar started to create the the dark passage and stopped suddenly.

Xigbar- Some things bothering me, if Zexun doesn't want there to be any traces of us, then why'd he let that one live?

I stood silently for a moment thinking it over. I decided there was no use in questioning it and turned to Xigbar.

Riku- Open the rift, Zexun is waiting.

Auther-Well, here's part 4. Hope it isn't too terrible. Please give any feed back, heavan knows I need it.
