Chapter 81: Bahamut Sin

Bahamut Sin was a frightening creature. Encased in silver, it stood over a hundred feet high. It had two arms ending in three-clawed hands. It had a large head with horns, yellow eyes, and jaws large enough to engulf a human.

Bahamut Sin began to bear down on the populace, soaring directly toward the square.

Yuffie was still there, still trying to shake the sense into the hypnotized Denzel.

Denzel, oblivious to the danger around him, stared at the ground, still not responding.

"Denzel," Yuffie exclaimed, "we need to get our butts out of here!"

And then, she heard the sound of something landing.

Yuffie turned to see Bahamut Sin approaching them with its gaping, open mouth.

"Don't fuck with a ninja girl!" exclaimed Yuffie as she drove her first into the creature.

Surprisingly, Bahamut Sin cowered backwards.

"That was easy!" Yuffie said to herself.

Then, Bahamut Sin faced them once more, and let out a loud screech.

"Shit," Yuffie groaned as she held Denzel to her.

Just then, Bahamut Sin leaped over Yuffie and Denzel, landing on the fountain.

Yuffie saw her chance and led Denzel away from the scene quickly.

Meanwhile, the prime Reno and the prime Rude ran toward the scene. Reno drew his rod, accidentally hitting Rude in the process, knocking him to the ground.

Reno spotted the creature on top of the fountain as Rude rose to his feet.

"Oh boy!" Reno exclaimed.

Bahamut Sin began biting through the chains, desperate to get to whatever was below.

"Hello?" Reno sheepishly greeted.

"Hell, no," Rude added.

The two turned and ran, with Reno nearly striking Rude again.

Yazoo and Loz, who had spotted the two Turks, began to give chase.

Reno stopped by a young boy and tried to rescue him, but the boy pushed him away with his hand. Reno quickly subdued him and picked him up.

Just then, a bright blue glow appeared in Bahamut Sin's mouth. It rose off the fountain.

"Is it after us?" Reno exclaimed as he continued to run.

"I'm not looking!" Rude, who had picked up two children himself, answered.

Yuffie quickly covered Denzel.

And then, Bahamut Sin fired its beam, destroying the fountain, and causing Reno and Rude to fall to the ground.

Bahamut Sin flew higher and screamed loudly.

Reno and Rude began to lift themselves off the ground, only to see the children they had rescued run off ungratefully.

It then got worse.

"Are we having fun yet, huh?" Yazoo called from behind.

"The time of my life!" Reno relied before springing up and attempting a roundhouse kick, which failed.

Reno then charged at Yazoo, only for him to kick him in the chest, knocking him to the ground. Losing no time, Reno sprang to his feet and charged again.

"When are you gonna call it a day?" he demanded.

Reno attempted to kick Yazoo again, but Yazoo jumped backwards onto a tall building.

"What?" Yazoo taunted. "Just as soon as you give back Mother, that'll be the end of everything."

Reno angrily climbed up the building superhumanly fast.

Meanwhile, Liz and Rude were engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

"Punks!" Rude grunted. "What do you need Jenova's head for?"

With that, he conked Loz with his own head. He then kneed him in the balls, and threw him over behind him, causing him to fall headfirst to the street.

But Loz was unhurt, and just grinned. Moments later, he sent Rude flying.

Meanwhile, Reno continued to punch and kick at Yazoo, only to keep missing.

"Forget your little reunion and get a grip!" Reno demanded. "We already have Sephiroth in the flesh!"

"All we want is to be with Mother!" shouted Yazoo before kicking Reno off of the building.

On the street, Loz knocked Rude to the ground, though he quickly recovered.

"Mother will know," Loz announced. "When she gets here, she'll decide what's best. Now, where's Mother?"

As Rude rose to his feet, a sign fell on him.

"Son of a–"

He couldn't finish, as Reno landed on him.

And then, something beyond horrible happened.

Both Reno and Rude got up, but, in the process, the latter stepped on the former's shades, crushing them.

Okay, I know it wasn't that horrible, but you should've seen the look on Rude's face.

Of course, Rude kept plenty in his pocket, though he did give Reno quite a resentful look.

"Mother, shmother," sighed Reno. "It's Jenova's fucking head!"

"Hey!" exclaimed Loz.

"I will not have you refer to Mother that way!" Yazoo added.

"You prick!" hissed Loz.

"Our apologies," Rude said sarcastically.

"Your ma's cool," Reno added in a mocking tone of voice. "What the hell am I saying?!"

With that, Reno charged, and the fighting resumed.

Loz then charged, knocking both Turks to the ground.

Reno and Rude rose to their feet as Yazoo landed behind them.

They were cornered.
