Cloud pressed the button on his earpeice. A slight static was heard before Lightnings' laughs screamed through the transmitter.
"Lightning, we'll split up here, I'll barge through the front, you take the back," ordered Cloud.
"Okay, but we'll have to stay out of the eyesight of those three dragons, Cloud," replied Lightning. Lightning pressed her foot down on the accelerator and sped forward in a burst of speed. Cloud pulled hard on the brake, skidding around a corner. The rain causing him to slide closer to the pavement than he wanted. Lightnings' buggy slowed down gradually to stop herself from swerving out of control. A sudden beeping in the dashboard took Lightnings' attention. She curiously pressed a red flashing button.
"Claire, the biggest dragon has went off the radar, I don't think it's in the city." came the voice of Owen, on loudspeaker. Lightning pressed down as hard as she could and sped up a bit of debris which had made a small ramp. She shot off the ramp, over a giant hole in the ground. Lightning looked into the hole to see one of the dragons speeding up through the hole. It was the golden dragon. Lightning pulled out one of her Brownings and shot the 13 rounds into the dragons face. One stray bullet grazed the dragons right eye, blinding it. The dragon reached to it's eye and began rubbing it, butt falling back down the hole. Lightnings' buggy thumped onto the pavement at the otherside of the hole.
Cloud swerved around the destroyed building, dodging debris which had fallen earlier that day. He pulled the throttle down and burst through the front door of the Valentine building. The buildings interior was pure spotless white. Cloud pulled the brake, stopping in the middle of the lobby of the building. Cloud looked up to see a whole two floors of mercenaries aiming heavily customised AK-47s at him. Cloud laughed under his breath as he felt a weird burning sensation in his eyes. He looked at the glossy black paint on his bike to see his eyes glowing a bright red. He swung hus leg off his bike and sprinted faster than any human up to the first floor, grabbed a merc and snapped their neck like a twig. He quickly picked up the fallen AK and shot all over the two floors. He unholstered his Glock and began headshotting the mercenaries which were still standing after the assualt with the rifle. The white floors were now coated in thick red blood. Cloud swung over the bars on the first floor and landed beside the bike. He pressed a concealed button and borught his Fusion Sword out, holstering his gun at the same time. Cloud slid the sword into it's holster on hiss back. He leapt up the floors, two at a time, due to the fluid which was flowing around his body. Cloud laughed as every so often there was a guard he could knock out or kill. Cloud reached the 48th floor and standing there was Lightning.
"I see you had fun, beating everyone up, killing them."
"It's this fucking fluid in my veins," cursed Cloud.
"I thought so, it's okay though, we'll order Hojo to make us one." said Lightning, stroking Clouds cheek, watching his eyes going back to their original bright cyan. Lightning slid the Omega gunblade from her holster and aimed it at the door, in it's gun form. Cloud unholstered his Glock and aimed it at the door. The pair stepped into the door after Cloud pressed the open button. Their footsteps quickened as they made way into Hojo's lab. Walking through the hallway they looked at the statis tubes on each side of the wall. Lightning ran her hand across a statis tube with a tall, muscular guy in it. Below the tube was a nameplate:-
"Dante Sparda
Son of the demon Sparda
High attack and energy levels"
She looked to the tube beside it and inside there was a man who looked exactly the same, only with more eviler looks and spiky hair, not flat like Dantes. Cloud looked at a tube across from Lightning and inside stood a beautiful, long brown haired female. Cloud looked down to see her nameplate
"Tifa Lockheart
Fought against Slenderman years ago and survived" Cloud gasped as he seen another brown haired female in the tube beside Tifas'.
"Aerith Gainsborough
Last Ancient/Cetra"
The pair slowly jogged through the hallway glancing at the stasis tubes. The last door opened and inside was a massive lab. A giant statis tube sat bang in the middle of the room. Inside was the body of Zack, floating in the liquid. A tall slender man shuffled around the room, pressing buttonss and turning dials. His black hair and small pony tail caked in grease. He turned to see Cloud and Lightning aiming their guns at the him. He pushed his glasses up his nose with his long thin fingers.
"Cloud and Claire, you took your time getting here," laughed Hojo, his voice and laughhter high and slightly squeaky.
"I just met you, and your voice is already irritating." groaned Cloud.
"Hojo, it's time for you to die," yelled Lightning. She pulled the trigger on her gunblade, blasting the area surrounding Hojo, who seemed unfazed by the attack. Cloud sprinted his super speed towards Hojo and tried a full force punch against him. Hojo ducked and uppercutted Cloud, throwing him back to Lightning. Lightning helped Cloud to his feet. Cloud fell to his feet again, clutching his mark. This time the paiin was nothing like before. The burning felt like it was about to make his arm explode. Cloud growled as the black mist ejected from his mark, forming a stronger and much darker Fenrir. Fenrir leapt at Hojo, but disappeared before it landed it's attack. Fenrir burst out of nothingness at clamped onto Hojos' neck, blood splurting everywhere. Hojo cried loudly as Fenrir tossed him against the statis tube, cracking the glass, causing the liquid to seep out of the tube. Fenrir howled loudly, like a jet just past the building. Hojo lifted his hand to the tube. Touching the glass it burst outwards, sending shards into Hojos' body, spearing him. The lifeless body of Hojo lay there, impaled with shards of glass going right through his body. Cloud bent over and picked Zacks body up, the assualt from Lightning before not even visible. Lightning climbed onto Clouds back as he leapt down the 48 floors, smashing the tiles witth the impact of the fall. Cloud stood up, slid Lightning off his back and swunng his leg onto his bike.
"I'm getting Zack to Owen and Toshiko, do me a favour and check as much of this building as you can." said Cloud before speeding off into the now torrential rain.
