Final Fantasy 7

By Tayla Drago

Yakumo: Stop this now! You don't know what you're getting yourself into!

Kadaj: Brother! I'm with her at last.

Cloud: So what's going to happen now?

Kadaj: He, he. Mother's going to tell me.

Cloud: I guess a remnant wouldn't really know.

[Kadaj looks down toward the box and then back up at Cloud and Yakumo.]

Yakumo: So you're not human, aren't you? Not you or your brothers, but puppets...? No wonder why I didn't feel anything normal but power.

Kadaj: So what if I'm a puppet?

[Blue energy surrounds Kadaj's hands as he gets ready to throw a blast at Cloud.]

Yakumo: Cloud!Ah!

[And another one at Yakumo without her feeling it out to dodging it in time.]

Kadaj: Once upon a time...you were too!

Yakumo: What do you mean Cloud was?

[Kadaj launches the blue energy around his hand at Cloud for him to use his body to shielding Yakumo in saving her. The three begin a fierce battle over the ruins of Midgar. As they battle, Cid's Sierra comes flying in behind them.]

Yuffie: Cloud! Yakumo I brought the Materia!

[The ship shakes.]

Yuffie: Whoa! Hey, watch it!

Barret: Yo, Cid, park this junk!

Cid: Shut up. You want off, then jump. Get off my back.

Vincent: He can handle this alone.

Yuffie: Huh?!

Vincent: Kadaj is a remnant of Sephiroth. Think of him as sort of a larva form.

Yakumo: (So he and the other two are browing clones...)

Yuffie: Larva?! You mean he's an insect?!

Cait: Lassie, shut your mouth!

Cid: So the bug's gonna become Sephiroth?

Tifa: Vincent, does Cloud and Yakumo know about Kadaj?

Vincent: One would think.

Tifa: Then you're right, it's their fight now. Cloud might know them more, as Yakumo has to fight with him.

Yuffie: What?! I don't get it! Why can't we help out?!

Cid: This is a marrige couple's talk against the enemy.

Yuffie: Sexist! Sexist! Do get any funny ideas since Yakumo's taken1

Cait: Shut your gob, lassie!

Barret: Men don't get it either from some women.

Tifa: Two years ago...think of the strength we all had when we fought that last battle.

[Orbit lights up to hope that they'll win while stayign with the others. Going back to Cloud, Yakumo, and Kadaj battling, but Tifa still continuing.]

Tifa: It's only been a couple of years, but already that feeling is gone. For Cloud, I think he's found it again all thanks to her.

[Shows the group on the Sierra.]

Barret: Pssh. They've got ten minutes.

Yuffie: That Cloud is a royal pain in the ass, like always. Yakumo however, we can deal with her to handle things on her own now.

Tifa: Cloud is Cloud. Without Yakumo in his life, what else would he be?

[Switches back to Cloud, Yakumo, and Kadaj continuing their fight. Cloud eventually defeats Kadaj with Yakumo's help not to be mess with again. They look down on him hanging on to a ledge with only one hand. Kadaj throws the box at Cloud to distract him. Kadaj then jumps from the ledge and goes to grab the box and the contents inside.]

Yakumo: Wiat, Cloud!

Kadaj: My Reunion...Bet you're dying to watch...

[Kadaj falls and shoves the contents of the box into himself. Cloud jumps off the ledge and goes after him for Yakumo to make a bubble to float herself down there 'a new trick she has learned there'. Kadaj lands, but is not the same person as before. The nightmare, Sephiroth, is back. Sephiroth blocks Cloud's attack with his Masamune.]

Yakumo: No...! It's Sephiroth! Kadaj's a vessel body for Sephiroth's spirti to control...Not good...!

[Trying to slash at Yakumo to shield to be broken, allowing Cloud to dodge it with his sword to saving her in time.]

Cloud: He's back...! Yakumo, stay with me.

Yakumo: Just be careful.

Sephiroth: Good to see you, Cloud. You too, Yakumo.

[Sephiroth knocks Cloud and Yakumo away, back to the top of the buildings they were on. Sephiroth jumps on a higher building and looks down at them.]

Yakumo: (Stay strong, Yakumo. You can do this. I won't lose to him liek the second time.)

Sephiroth: Your Geostigma is gone? That's too bad. And you give life to having a child together...Could be useful to become part of me this time.

Yakumo: No! I won't allow you to hurt our daughter!

Cloud: Sephiroth, what do you want? You want her? I won't let you get near our child!

[Cloud does care deep down for Yakumo to feel him out.]

Yakumo: You tell him, Cloud.

Sephiroth: The last thoughts of Geostigma are dead. Those remnants will join the Lifestream and girdle the planet - choking it, corroding it. What I want, Cloud and Yakumo, is to sail the darkness of the cosmos with this Planet as my vessel - just as my mother did before long ago. Since I can't have you or Yakumo, I will take anyone with the Geostigma they have left as mine, and the newborn child as my power...

[Sephiroth lifts his hand into the sky and it turns pitch black.]

Sephiroth: Then one day we'll find a new planet and on its soil we'll create a shining future.

Cloud: What about this planet?

Yakumo: We stopped Meteor thanks to Holy, Aerith, and me for the Lifestream in doing the rest.

Sephiroth: Well, that's up to you two, Cloud. Being married and all, that won't last too long from either of you.

[Cloud, Yakumo, and Sephiroth fly towards each other and begin an absolutely epic battle. A "Black Lifestream" can be seen coming down to take over the city of Midgar and Edge. Switches to Marlene, where she hears a drop of water while taking care of Cloud and Yakumo's child. For Rose and Dudley to watch over her and the other kids to come.]

Marlene: Is it her?!

[Going back to Cloud, Yakumo, and Sephiroth, who are in the middle of the darkness battling fiercely. Sephiroth disappears and then reappears to the side of Cloud and knocks him into an old building. For Yakumo to throw every punch, kick, and throwing her staff at him many timeswithout stopping for him to dodging them all fast just like her. The three continue the fight and eventually lock swords to staff.]

Sephiroth: Fidning power within your so call sister, how foolish, Yakumo.

Yakumo: Shut up! I still will never forgive you in murdering Aerith in front of me and turning me into a monster! I'll make you pay!

Sephiroth: That's right...I forgot you have a better half form of a Makoinoid, my bad. And you, Cloud. Where did you find this strength?

Cloud: I'm not about to tell you! And neother will she!

[All three of them come out of the building and onto another. For Yakumo to aid Cloud in this fight at all times. They continue their fight, with Sephiroth having the upper hand. Sephiroth jumps into the air and continues flying up, mocking Cloud and Yakumo too in the process.]

Yakumo: Cheater!

Sephiroth: I thought of a wonderful present for you two.

[Sephiroth slashes a large piece of falling debris in half with his sword to try to hit Cloud and Yakumo. Cloud slashes right through it, as Yakumo blocks it all with her shield, and continues on after Sephiroth.]

Sephiroth: Shall I give both of you despair?

[Sephiroth knocks Cloud down for Yakumo to pull his sword away from Cloud in time, only for Cloud manages to stab his sword into the side the building to serve as a platform to stand on. Sephiroth hovers above Cloud and Yakumo.]

Yakumo: (Almost there...)

Sephiroth: On your knees. I want you to beg for forgiveness. Same thing goes for you, Yakumo.

[The entire top of the building suddenly begins to fall toward the both of them and for her. Sephiroth slices through it effortlessly. Cloud removes one part of his sword and uses both to slice cleanly through the massive debris. Sephiroth then comes out from behind some of it and knocks Cloud down onto one of the falling pieces for Yakumo to fire many part of the building to hit Sephiroth at to slashing them all to bits. The three begin to exchange blows on the falling ground. Cloud eventually jumps off to holding Yakumo to carrying her and headed up to another piece of ruined building. They get to the top and then falls to one knee for Cloud was getting weak, for Sephiroth kicks Yakumo a side without trying to heal him this time. Suddenly, Sephiroth catches up and tries to slash at him, but Cloud avoids it. Sephiroth pushes Cloud back against a wall and stabs him in his right shoulder.]

Yakumo: No!

[Sephiroth moves quickly to grab hold of Yakumo from behind to holding her arm up to dropping her staff.]

Cloud: Yakumo...!

Sephiroth: Just stay still, Yakumo, you're next. Tell me what you cherish most, Cloud. Give me the pleasure of taking it away.

Yakumo: Cloud! Fight back!

[Yakumo's body soon begins to glow all over her body for something to happen soon...All sorts of memories flash through Cloud's mind very quickly. Angered, he grabs Sephiroth's sword out of his shoulder and stands up.]

Cloud: Yakumo! Let go of my wife!

Sephiroth: What!? How are you...? (Not her too!)

[Yakumo then let's out a powerful energy to burning Sephiroth's body up, she let's out a big scream to send him flying hard to the floor for Cloud to grab hold of his sword in time with his bare hands before he could strike back.]

Yakumo: Never again...!

Cloud: I pity you. You just don't get it at all.

Sephiroth: Heh.

[Sephiroth run towards Cloud and tries to attack, but his attack his blocked. He jumps off of a wall and hovers in the air. Cloud leaps into the air as well for Yakumo to follow them.]

Cloud: There's not a thing I don't cherish! Other than my friends, family, those I knew, Yakumo, and my baby girl!

[Cloud then pulls his sword back and flings it forward, allowing all of his blades to come out and surround Sephiroth. Moving fast enough to leave golden after glows, he performs his Limit Break "Omnislash V5 on Sephiroth allowing Yakumo to fire a blast within her staff to stab right into Sephiroth's chest to his heart being destroyed for good this time, and finally they defeated him.]

Cloud: Stay where you belong...in my memories.

Yakumo: And to never be brought upon this world ever again.

Sephiroth: I will...never be a memory. To any of you...!

[A black wing covers Sephiroth and Kadaj returns. He tries to give an attack, but just lands in Cloud's arms with his sword gone.]

Yakumo: Sephiroth's no longer on this world no more thanks to us. He's gone, leaving Kadaj left and weak.

[Cloud holds Yakumo for her powers to go down again for them to embracing themselves with a passionate kiss.]

Cloud: I'm so glad you're alright, Yakumo.

Yakumo: Cloud, I wouldn't lose to Sephiroth anymore. As long as you were there with me.

Cloud: You were great.

Yakumo: So were you, as always, Cloud.

Kadaj: Bro...ther...

Aerith: Kadaj?

Kadaj: Huh?

[A familiar rain begins to fall.]

Aerith: You don't have to hang on any longer.

Kadaj: Mother is that ...

Aerith: Everyone's waiting if you're ready.

Yakumo: Aerith...She's calling out to him...

[Kadaj reaches toward the sky and slowly disintegrates, turning into particles that return to the Lifestream. The rain that falls begins to cure the people's Geostigma who live in Edge. A product of Aerith's Great Gospel. Meaning that they were being cured.]
