| Brad was unable to get out his shard to use it before Josiah started taking control. He didn't need to as it turned out. Suddenly he heard the message sent by Marina. He glaced at Jack, who had not yet called for a squadron of fighters. He looked out the window and saw Josiah as he took down the jet as easily as crushing an ant. A thud was heard, and Marina landed on the floor of the office.
Jack spoke, "this could very easily cost a fortune in repairs Josiah. I was only supposed to bring the girl to you, it's your fault I have so much damage for not being able to control you." Brad was not so emotionless. "That's inhumane." Brad said, "he is no longer able to fight, and we cannot kill him. We don't do executions here merely because the executed is an enemy soldier. You let Josiah kill him, Jack, and I'm not a member of the E'shyum." "Anything that will happen will happen without our help." Said Jack, "patience, my friend." |

| Seifer cursed as his shards dropped to the ground, but he knew he would not need them at this point in time. He called upon his hidden shard, the powerful one given to him by a man who was once one of his dearest friends. He growled lowly and broke free, sending the metal sailing through the air. He ducked down, grabbed his shards, and then dashed forward once more to Holly. He continually used the hidden shard's power, and ripped the metal strips off Holly. He gave her a quick but powerful embrace, then took two steps back and faced his enemy.
"Josiah, old friend, leave them all be. We have a score to settle." Seifer turned to Jack and Brad, who were nearby enough he had no difficulty speaking to them. "If you are to take Holly and her father to saftey, I will ensure no lives nor property damage will accumulate. Now, please, be civil and accept my proposal." He safely placed his shards in their true respective locations, and stood at the ready, watching his foe carefully. (Last edited by Cairoi on 01-04-07 06:38 PM) |

| Josiah had forgotten about the shard he had given Seifer all those years ago. It had great power, but nowhere near as powerful as his. Fortunately, in their last encounter he hadn't shown Seifer his true power. He probably wouldn't even break a sweat this time.
"Fine, the death of this mortal can wait. Do you wish to make the first move?" |

| "Goddamn it...no!" Holly darted over to Henry and knelt beside him. "Seifer...let's just go..." She looked over to Brad and Jack. "Please...just let us go. We don't want to hurt anyone...you have nothing to gain by allowing Josiah to get the shard..." She glared at Josiah. "You've broken all trust that remained...I don't know if I can forgive you for all of this."
She propped Harry up just enough so that she could get underneath him. Slowly and with slight difficulty, she rose to her feet, with Henry's weight leaning down on her. "Seifer...not now...not here....please..." (Last edited by Katana on 01-04-07 07:22 PM) |

| "Holly, if you wish for Seifer and your father to live, you will just give me your shard, and end this all."
He held out his hand, awaiting Holly to turn over the priced item. |

| Holly led Henry over to a chair and sat him down. "It'll be okay." She whispered. As Holly took a few steps back, she gave her father a small smile. She then turned over to face Josiah. Slowly, she walked over to him until she was standing directly in front of him. She looked up at him, directly into his eyes.
"You're weak Josiah. You want one shard. The only reason why I am even involved is because it is in my posession...other than that...it's just the shard. So tell me, Josiah...why? Why do you feel the need to get someone else to come get me? Why couldn't you do it yourself? Tell me..." Her anger was rising yet she remained calm, other than the fact that she gritted her teeth as she spoke. "Why do you have to involve other people? You're act as though you're so strong...so why...?" |

| "But that's the thing, dear Holly. I am strong."
Josiah turned away, and stepped out the opening walking out on the air outside of the tower. He turned back to Holly. "I have all the power in the world, contained in this one sliver of crystal. More power, in fact, than I know what to do with. And soon, whether you help me or not, I will have even more." He raised his hand and a sheet of metal rose to the window, sitting like a platform. "I extend to you the same offer I gave Jack, although he now seems too dim witted to keep his side of the bargain. Come with me, and share my unlimited power. And if you do, I will promise, that no more lives will be lost." |

| Holly's hands flew to her mouth. She took a few steps back and shook her head.
"You're insane Josiah..." Again, she shook her head. "How can you promise that no lives will be lost?! How can I believe that?! You aren't making sense...How can you promise to share something that you're being so selfish about trying to gain?" She didn't know what else to say. She turned to Seifer. "I don't want to be here anymore...but I'm not leaving without you." She says softly. |

| "Fine, then I have no choice but to destroy you and take your shard myself."
Josiah pulled his hands toward himself and the metal platform flew towards him. He crunched it down into a ball, and began to charge it with energy. |

| Seifer had been lost in contemplation at Holly's words, but when he saw Josiah take action against her, and turned to her quickly. He would not let any harm come to her.
"Then meet me on the first floor!" Seifer went to tackle Josiah hard and the hit connected (approved by FX, mind you), and the two flew out the already opened window. He then kicked off Josiah and drew his broadsword as they began the descent down, which looked to be an exciting fall, to be sure. Seifer had no doubts of himself surviving the fall, as well as the oncoming fight. He was devoted to protecting the girl named Holly from anymore pain. Death was not an option. |

| Holly waited for a response from Seifer, but Josiah had said something first. She balled her hands into fists and waited to see what he was going to do. She could feel her shard grow warm. However, before she could do or say anything, Seifer was already on Josiah.
"No!" She screamed, as she dashed over to the window and leaned over it, watching their fall. She turned to Jack and stormed angrily toward him. "You..." Once she was standing in front of him, she reached up and slapped him right across his face. Holly gasped. She had not expected to act that way and stared at her now shaking hand. "He's out of control." She said finally, after regaining some of her composure. "Why did you do this? You brought me here...if he gets this shard..." She didn't know what to say. She was trembling with anger and frustration. Holly quickly whirled around and faced Henry. She walked over to him and once again, was propping him up with her own body. She looked over at Brad and shook her head slowly before continuing over to the elevator as quickly as she could, considering the weight she was carrying.

| Josiah grunted as Seifer connected with him. As he fell downward, he oriented himself so that his back was facing down, with Seifer above him. He shot his hands forward as he launched the charged ball of metal at Seifer.
Henry groaned as he regained consciousness. He looked up into his daughter's face. "Holly...?" |

| Holly didn't say anything at first, as she struggled toward the elevator.
"Why did you come here?" She asked, between breaths. "You could ruin your reputation with the Marinae, as I'm sure Alden didn't send you." At last she managed to get Henry to the elevator and looked for the button she needed to press to go down. (OOC: Trying to give Vulkar some time to react to stuffs.) |

| "My rank means nothing when set beside the life of my daughter."
He looked around the small elevator. "D-did I succeed? Did I rescue you?" |

| ooc: Sorry for taking too long, I sort of skipped friday night's sleep, and was too tired yesterday to post.
ic: Brad looked from the man to the girl, and then to Jack. "Jack," he said. "I can't work with this Josiah, and you don't have a shard right now. I'm going to help Holly and her father." "Wait-" Jack said. "No. You might be too weak to defy Josiah, but I'm leaving." Brad walked towards Holly, grabbed Henry's other arm, and walked into the elevator. He pressed to button to go down, and there was silence for a moment until he spoke. "You see, I can sometimes be a decent guy." |

At Henry's first statement, Holly flinched. Rank means nothing? she thought. First I've heard about this. she opened her mouth to speak, but decided against it. However, his second statement brought a small smile to her lips. "Yeah...you did." She replied. To her suprise, Brad accompanied them on the elevator. She gave him a nod of thanks as he helped her shoulder Henry's weight. As he pressed the button, she remained silent, until he spoke. "Well, ya woulda shot me long ago if ya weren't." She says playfully. Once the elevator reached the bottom, Holly looked up at Brad. "Stay with him. Please." She requested. I don't know what's going on out there, but he can't even walk, let alone defend himself...I'll be right back." And with that, she gently removed herself from underneath Henry's arm and dashed off to the nearest window she could find so that she could see where Josiah and Seifer had landed. |

| As Seifer fell down, he was laughing. The swift wind blowing flooded out the tormet of his soul, and he finally felt free. He drew his broadsword, and called upon Holy Trinity and Tremor to charge up a powerful slash shockwave. He swung down hard, severing the ball in two, and a Holy Trinity slash shockwave shot down at Josiah. Immediately after launching the attack, he extended his feet and stood on the halves of the metal for a moment, then pushed off. He shot past Josiah and his first attack and turned around to face his foe. He called upon Tremor's power to create a shockwave that propelled him forward at Josiah's backside. He brought his sword up horizantally, aimed perfectly in the middle of Josiah, and with one movement hoped to cut Josiah in half.
"READY?!" |

| Henry looked up at Brad, delirious.
"Who are you? Are you Holly's boyfriend? Did she finally find a good man?" As the shockwave flew towards Josiah, he brought his hands up, ripping two large chunks of pavement from the ground below. They flew in front of him and absorbed the blast. He shot his hands out and the chunks flew towards Seifer. |

Holly spotted something and knew it had to be them. She closed her eyes and counted to three. There were guards all over. Being as she came off the elevator with Brad, she hoped that was enough for them to see that she meant no harm to them. Once she got to three, she made a mad dash for one of the building's exits, the one closest to where Seifer and Josiah would land. With a flick of her wrist, her shard was in the palm of her hand and activated. This time, it seemed she had control of it, but there was no time for her to marvel at this new discovery as she stood outside by the building's enterance. |

| "Great," Brad said. "I'm left with the cripple who thinks I'm her boyfriend, and Holly goes running off. That's what I get for helping someone."
He looked at the door to the helicopter pad, and shouted to Holly. "Come on, I can fly the helicopter and pick up Seifer. Anyone who can fall from there and live will be able to get on this helicopter." Security was going to arrive any minute now. Now that he was conflicting with the E'shyum, they weren't going to go easy on him, or anyone else here for that matter, except for Josiah. He didn't have time to waste with this old man hanging off his shoulder. No time... He jumped as the first of the bullets came, several of the E'shyum troops were standing at the door. "Holly, get over here unless you want to be left behind." There was no time to wait, and he couldn't get that old many past several troops by himself. He carried the man over to a nearby desk, kicked it over, and hid behind it, loading his gun. He hoped he didn't have to use it, he knew some of those soldiers who were after him. "I'm going to be having nightmares about this fight all my life, won't I?" |
