"Cloud?" asked Lightning, clutching onto Clouds' shirt.
"Yeah?" replied Cloud.
"Why did you have to kill Zack?". Cloud sighed as the realistion hit him, he'd killed his brother and the person he'd been looking for in the past decade.
"He was one of them, experimented on."
"And that gave you a reason to kill him?" cried Lightning. Cloud pulled the brakes on the bike beside the beach. Cloud swung his leg off the bike and took long strides to the water.
"You don't understand, Light, it's up to me and you to get rid of everything this Hojo has done, including destroying the experiments," yelled Cloud. Lightning leapt off the bike and ran straight to Cloud, embracing him. A massive explosion blew Cloud and Lightning into the water. Cloud burst out of the water, taking a deep breath. He looked around the water for Lightning. Under the water lay an unconsious Lightning. Cloud forced his hands into the water and pulled Lightning out. Cloud heaved her onto his shoulder and carried her onto the beach. He mover her pink hair, which had been darkened by the water, out of her face. Cloud checked for her pulse. He grunted as as he couldn't find one. Cloud took a deep breath, held Lightnings' nose closed and pressed their lips together, breathing his air into her lungs. No response. Cloud tried again. Once again, no response. Cloud deepened his breath even more than the last two, and pressed their lips together. Forcing all the air into Lightnings' lungs, Cloud fell back, exhausted. Lightning began coughing and spluttering, bringing the water out of her lungs.
"Light?" gasped Cloud.
"Cloud?" coughed Lightning, "that was a nice kiss." Cloud looked over to Lightning and laughed.
Suddenly a massive explosion came from inside the city, one of the biggest buildings began to crash down. On the building stood a massive creature, long flame coloured hair flowing behind two giant horns attached to its head. It had orange skin. Flames coming from the arms and legs of the creature. The beast reared its head and let out a cry. A fireball flew out its mouth against a nearby building, causing it to explode. As the building fell another giant beast flew by it, blasting a peculiar beam at the buildings. This new beast was gold in colour, and had giant wings with spikes on the edges. Its tail swiped against the falling building, breaking the buildings structure. A lot of civillians ran from the nearby explosions towards the exit of town. Sneaking up, unoticed, a black substance moved swiftly in front of the fleeing crowd. As a little boy ran on top of the substance a black dragon burst from the ground, sending the child flying back into the crowd. The dragon was the same one from before. The dragon blasted a blue aura into the crowd, scattering the crowd into dust. The gold dragon sat beside the black dragon. A dark green energy ball descended from the sky. The gold dragon and the black dragon shot a blue beam at the ball, bursting it. The creature inside the ball stretched out, its six wings spreading outwards. This dragon was almost as big as the Valentine building, which was 48 stories high. It lifted it head into the air and shot a massive gold beam into the sky. A deafing boom came from the sky and a load of energy projectiles rained down on the city, destroying parts of buildings and blowing up veichles. Standing on top of the new dragon was a familiar tall, slender figure. Beside the fire beast stood a figure which made Cloud gasp. Lightning looked on as this horror unfolded. A mystical figure leapt from building to building slicing them in half or cutting chunks off of them. The humanoid figure landed right in front of Lightning, leaning down to her eye level. Lightning gasped as she recognised the figure to be an exact copy of her l'Cie summon, Odin, only darker, more evil. The Dark Odin punched Lightning, sending her flying backwards into deeper water.
Lightnings' chest began burning with a now familiar burning. Crystal forming on the surface of the water, bringing Lightning up from the water. The crystal formed a beautiful pink rose. The rose exploded, forcing Lightning into the air. Lightning looked down to see her Odin standing guard, with his shield, defending. Clouds' arm was wrapped in a black cloud. Fenrir the wolf leapt out of the cloud. It stood in front of Dark Odin, in an offensive formation. Fenrir leapt onto Dark Odin, and began snapping at his face, trying to bite him. Dark Odin grabbed Fenrirs' throat and threw him against a nearby wall, smashing it apart. Dark Odin drew his sword, a brilliant blue sword with a shining aura. Odin equipped his hooked blades. Odin leapt against the darker version of itself. Dark Odin spun around and sliced at Odin. Lightnings' Odin cried in pain as the sword cut into his flesh. Fenrir shot a black blast of energy at the Dark Odin. Dark Odin took the attack square in the chest, flying backwards.
"No! ODIN!" cried a high pitched voice. Running towards Dark Odin was a small, petite girl. Lightning grunted as beside Dark Odin kneeled Serah.
"Serah, get away from it!"
"It's my Odin, and it'll destroy yours," said Serah, a dark tone in her voice.
"Odin, Gesault Mode!" yelled Lightning. Odin leapt into the air and began transforming into a horse. Lightning ran and jumped onto the horses back. Grabbing the two hooked blades as she landed.
"ZANTENSUKEN!" cried Lightning as she jumped into the air, spinning, the blades creating a vortex of wind. Dark Odin got swept into the vortex, the wind cutting into him like a hot knife cutting into butter. Dark Odin dropped from the vortex and landed beside Serah, blood spilling from all the cuts and slashed skin. Serah dropped down to Dark Odin, holding onto the dying creature. Serah screamed in pain as the dark l'Cie mark on her upper left bicep burned away. She looked down to see her summon turn to dust. Serah looked to Lightning and fell backwards, unconcious. Cloud pressed a button on the headset on his ear.
"Owen, I need someone to come and pick up Serah," said Cloud, relief that one more person had been brought back to normality. Lightning walked slowly to her sister. She bent down and lifted her unmoving body into her arms.
"Cloud we need to get rid of those dragons, though it could kill us," warned Lightning. A black SUV pulled up to Cloud and Lightning. Owen came out the drivers seat and took Serah. Toshiko exited through the passenger door and ushered Cloud and Lightning over to the car. Walking to the boot of the car, Toshiko opened the boot using a small button. A small armoury was in the boot. Cloud picked up a Glock and holstered it into the empty holster on his leg. Lightning picked up a small Uzi and holstered it. Cloud looked over to see a massive weapon. Kind of like a rocket launched but smaller and more portable. Cloud reached over and picked it up.
"That gun, is an energy blaster. It fires a ball of energy which is half as hot as the sun," said Toshiko. Cloud loaded the gun with a cell from inside the SUV. He looked up to the three dragons which were flying about, destroying everything but the Valentine building.
