Tidus continued to run through the heartless, slicing them with his weapon or running past them to try and get to the castle as soon as he could. However, he was not expecting a corridor of darkness to open in front of him, the man with blue hair that he hated so much appearing from within it.
"Seymour!" He yelled, immediately going into a battle stance as he looked at the man, who only laughed at the star Blitz Ball player.
"It's great to see you again, Tidus," the man said. "Are you having fun in this battle?"
"Quiet! What are you doing here Seymour? What are you even doing alive?" Tidus asked angrily.
"Chaos thought that I could be of assistance to Xehanort and his lackeys, so he brought me back from the dead to do just that," he laughed, "However, I am planning to cut my ties with them very soon. Once this battle is over, I think I'll finally take Yuna on that honeymoon we didn't get to go on."
"Shut up! She never loved you, never!" Tidus yelled.
(Battle Theme – Final Fantasy X) "Let us see who is the better man fit for her than, shall we?" Seymour said as he brought out his staff, with Tidus only standing stronger in his battle stance as he did so. As soon as Seymour was ready, he brought his hand out to Tidus, taunting him. This only frustrated Tidus more, and officially started the battle.
Tidus ran at Seymour, filled with rage as he tried to bring his sword down on the blue haired man. But Seymour managed to bring his staff up and block the attack, pushing Tidus back with much force as he did so. That did not stop Tidus however, and the Blitz Ball played only ran back at Seymour again, this time catching him off guard and hitting him once before Seymour put up a reflect shield around him. Tidus angrily hit his sword against the reflect shield, trying to break through it as fast as he could. "Stop hiding like a coward and fight like a man!" Tidus yelled.
Tidus did not notice Seymour's evil grin from underneath the shield however, so when Seymour unsummoned the shield, Tidus fell forwards and landed on the ground on one knee. Seymour then quickly went around the Blitz Ball player and kicked him in the back, making him fall onto the ground face first. Tidus shot back up as fast as he could however, and tried to hit Seymour once he had done so but the blue haired man avoided every single one of his attacks. Catching Tidus off guard again, Seymour fired a blast of blizzard followed by a blast of thunder right at him. Tidus got hit dead on with the blizzard attack, which sent him flying backwards, but he managed to roll out of the way when Seymour tried to hit him with the thunder attack and he got back up afterwards.
"I must have been dead for a very long time Tidus; you seemed to have lost your fighting touch." Seymour taunted, only angering Tidus more than he already was. But the Blitz Ball player took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down before he ran at Seymour again, trying to hit him with his weapon. Seymour dodged it again though, but Tidus managed to accomplish a three-sixty spin in the air and kick the man right in the face, sending him flying backwards. Seymour only scolded at Tidus, wiping away the blood that was now dripping down the side of his lip. When Seymour got back up, he brought out both of his hands, creating a fire attack in both of them, and spun around, creating what looked like a tornado of flames. Unfortunately, Tidus was running towards Seymour when he did this, so the beach goer ran right into the flames, falling into Seymour's trap.
As soon as the flames died down, Tidus fell to one knee, trying to catch his breath. Before he could make any more movements though, he felt the tip of Seymour's staff touch his head. "Surrender now while you still can." The man said, but Tidus was not going to give up that easily. Making his hand into a fist, Tidus quickly brought out his sword and his the man right in the knee, making him grasp on to it in pain as Tidus pushed him out of the way.
"Not today!" Tidus exclaimed as he ran at Seymour again. He couldn't go down yet, he couldn't! Sure, it probably looked to a lot of people (Yuna being the biggest) that he was getting his ass kicked, but he couldn't go down without a bigger fight. As soon as he made it over to Seymour, he brought out his weapon to clash with Seymour's body, but the man brought out his staff to block it. The two, now face to face with their weapon's meeting, were trying to push each other's weapons down, taking the person down as well. After several suspenseful moments, Seymour smirked and brought his other hand out and fired a blast of blizzard at Tidus, sending the teen backwards.
What I wouldn't kill for a potion right now… Was the only thing Tidus could think at this moment. As Tidus landed, barely being able to do so on his feet, be brought out his weapon and tried to use cure on himself, but Seymour sent another blast of blizzard at him, preventing him from doing so. Not wanting to put up with Seymour any longer, Tidus used his own magic, rapidly and uncontrollably firing a mix of blizzard, fire, and thunder attacks at him. Seymour managed to dodge all of the attacks however before he vanished in a corridor of darkness. Growling, Tidus yelled, "Come out you coward!" But then the teen felt something tap him on the shoulder. Turning around, the only thing that greeted him was Seymour's staff, which made contact with his face, and made him fall to the ground, too tired to try and attack anymore. (End Battle Theme)
Meanwhile, flying over the battle just in time to see Seymour knock Tidus to the ground, was Xion in her Iron Woman suit. As soon as she saw this, she spoke over her communicator to warn the others saying, "Guys, Tidus could use some help over here or else he I smoked," she said, trying to sound calm but that didn't really work. Before Xion could say anything else, the holograms in front of her began to change colors rapidly, shocking her. "What the heck?" Was all she could say, was she being hacked?
Before she could think anymore, Xion heard a familiar voice come over her communicator, obviously proving that they hacked her. "Hey Xion?" She knew that voice, that same calm voice that everyone knew.
"Miss us?" Two other voices said at the same time. Before Xion could say anything however, a song came on over her communicator (Twister – Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance) that only made her snicker to herself, proving that it was exactly who she thought it was hacking into her communicator.
Back on the ground, Tidus looked up at Seymour, who was glaring down at him, with a hopeless look on his face. However, before Seymour could react, the same people that hacked into Xion's communicator hacked into her speakers as well; making the song they played blast out across the battle field. Seymour only looked up from confusion at this, which Tidus took to his advantage right away and kicked Seymour in the stomach, sending him back.
When Tidus stood up weakly, he suddenly felt stronger, knowing that someone has had to have used cure on him. Before he could begin to think who it was, four figures appeared in front of him, seeming to jump out from out of nowhere. Tidus only rolled his eyes and smiled, he should have known from the moment the song played as to who was going to be there, assisting him in the battle.
Neku turned around, "Sorry we're a little late to the party," he said. Tidus only laughed, which made Beat, Rhyme, and Shiki turn around as well, smiling and giving him the thumbs up.
"It was all Beat's fault," Shiki said, rolling her eyes as Beat held his hands out to his side.
"Why do you guys blame everything on me?! First the whole Julius situation and now this?" Beat asked confused.
"Oh big brother, it's because you are always the one to blame." Rhyme replied, making Beat let out a heavy sigh of embarrassment. This only caused Tidus to laugh harder, but before anyone could say anything else, they looked at Seymour, who was slowly making his way back onto his feet.
"If you think I am going to lose this easily to a bunch of kids, you have another thing coming." Seymour spoke.
"Guess we'll have to convince you then," Shiki said as the former members of the Reaper Games prepared their magic while Tidus got out his sword. Seymour only prepared his staff in response, giving a slightly worried glance at the group of five, before it faded and he exclaimed, "Come Anima!" Suddenly, a huge monster appeared from out of nowhere, startling the group, but they were not going to back down now, having come this far. The monster let out a mighty roar as the four Traverse Town residents ran at the monster, attacking it with their magic attacks at the creature's feet. Tidus laughed again that their great moves before joining in himself. However, when the monster brought its head back and blasted fire at the Blitz Ball player, he closed his eyes, preparing for the worst, but when the attack didn't come to him, he looked up seeing that Rhyme had summoned a reflect shield around him, causing the fire ball to hit it and fly back at the monster, hitting it in the face.
After several more attacks to the monster, the creature finally vanished, which shocked Seymour. "That power that defeated Anima, it shall be mine!" Seymour exclaimed, but even the blue haired man knew that he was out numbered. As the Traverse Town residents brought out their hands, preparing magic, Tidus ran at the man, his weapon ready to attack. Seymour brought up his staff to block the blow, but Tidus managed to push it out of his hands and then get a combo on his enemy. As soon as he was on the ground, the former Reaper's members fired their magic at the man as much as they could, before Tidus finally ran up and impaled his weapon in the man's sword, ending the battle. (End Twister)
Seymour only looked up at Tidus in shock as the teen pulled his weapon out of the man's chest. "This… is not the end…" Were Seymour's last words before he vanished into the darkness for good.
