Eric climbed into the cabin from the cockpit, breaking the awkward silence. "We haven't got long until we reach our destination, but until then there's nothing we can do. Now, you must all be nervous, I know I sure as hell am, but Josiah is just a man. He can be stopped." |

| "One swift kick to the groin should take any man down..." Holly mumbled in a voice so low, she was sure no one had heard.
"We'll be okay, Eric." She says confidently. "But...what about Jeremy?" |

| Alden spoke for the first time on the flight, from his position in the back of the helicopter. He didn't look up from the floor.
"Jeremy is currently lying in a hospital room in the Marinae outpost with a three-foot harpoon, or at least the remains of one, in the left side of his chest. Chances are low that he isn't dead yet." |

| Seifer had been silent this whole time. The whirring of the blades above his head was a constant reminder that they faced the end of the road, be it good or bad. Would they live? Would they die? These thoughts pervaded his mind, and drew the charismatic fighter quiet. After a moment, he stepped into the middle of the helicopter, feeling a strange sense of passion.
"This war started five years ago with the falling of the meteor. It had seemed just as much like the end of the world then as it might now, and we overcame it. Josiah may be powerful, almost god-like, but we...we have something he'll never have. We have a reason to live. A reason to fight. A reason to die, if it comes down to that. Leon, Holly, Alden, Isha, Eric, Brad...It's been damn good this few weeks by your sides. Let's hope we all make it out of this one." Seifer nodded a few times before leaning back against the wall, running the fight in his mind. Despite Josiah's gargantuan strength, he felt they could do it. He felt pride in his brothers in arms. |

| "He'll kill us all. You know that, Seifer."
Alden stood up and stormed over to the swordsman. "Edgar's dead, Jeremy's dead. And you think you've seen what he's capable. You've seen noth--" Alden fell into Seifer as the helicopter lurched. There was the sound of grinding metal of the blades, accompanied by the blaring of alarms in the cockpit. Everyone gripped the sides of the helicopter as they lost altitude, and a terrible freefall seemed to ensue. After a rough rocking, the helicopter seemed to fall deathly silent. Eric stumbled out the cockpit and froze. "Don, you're not going to like this." Alden appeared behind the bodyguard, the crisis reverting him to his original self, and froze. Just outside the cockpit, stood Josiah, the helicopter floating 15 feet away from him. (Last edited by Cairoi on 11-25-07 03:48 AM) |

| Holly gasped as the helicopter jumped forward, but was able to catch herself from falling into anybody.
She looked around confused, the sentence Alden couldn't finish ringing through her mind. "Ouch." She whispered, instinctively, as she felt a sudden warmth on her wrist. Rolling up her sleeve, she could see her shard pulsating frantically. "He's here." She announced grimly, locking her gaze onto Seifer. |

| Leon could not sit by any longer. The Helicopter lurched forward, and he stood up, unaffected by the pull. Out of the opening of the Helicopter his foe stood ominously. The helicopter began to stabilize. The ground not too far below.
"Seifer, it's a pity we'll never finish that duel. I don't think I'll be in any condition to fight you after I kill this bastard." Leon tossed a smile back at his friends, and leapt from the helicopter firing his pistol as he went. Six shots, two seconds, one connection, such a bold move was unexpected. A bullet tore through Josiah's left arm, leaving blood dripping from the wound and a poor reaction time with that arm. As Leon closed the distance, he dropped the gun, no shard attached, and drew the blade from his back. A mighty sword slash was brought down upon Josiah, one that not even he would have an easy time blocking. Such a bold move, by such a bold man. |

| Josiah quickly stepped to the right, and Leon's blade slammed against the ground. Josiah stepped down on the blade and it snapped in two.
"Machina? You're... alive?" Josiah darted forward and his palm slammed into Leon's chest. Leon sailed through the air, skidding across the ground. |

| "Leon! Wait!" Holly cried out. But it was too late. Leon had already attacked Josiah.
Clutching her shard as tightly as she could, Holly did the only thing she could do for the moment. If she were foolish enough to jump in, not only would it make things even more difficult, but it leave Leon prone to a damaged pride. He needed to have a shot at this fight, as well as everyone else. Holly knew all of that. So she bit down hard on her lip and made her way to the helicopter's enterance to view the fight. |

| "Alive? I've never felt so alive. Your death will come at my hands."
Leon turned his weapon's shard on. He smiled calmly. Shard eye dancing across Josiah as a blinding light, sensing all the shard energy within him. A calm drew about Leon's face, a knowing that he was going to salvation. Finally a rest, time to be with the Lord. "Josiah, you may kill me, but you will be stopped, your plans, ruined. If I cannot destroy you, many will rise in my place, and you will be washed away with the flood. Surrender, or be destroyed." With that Leon dashed forward, Broken sword at his side, ready to slash his foe to pieces. With one swing Leon connected with Josiah's clothing, and threw his left hand in a quick jab to strike Josiah in the chin. He slid his one foot behind him and struck a defensive stance. |

| But as Leon slashed, he didn't connect with flesh, but stone. All around him, he was encapsulated with stone. Quickly, the stone contracted, and in but a moment, Leon was moments from being crushed, only his head exposed. Before him stood Josiah, fist clenched, look of pure rage on his face. | |||

| Leon struggled, but to no avail. He was trapped, by heretical sorcery. A demon was standing before him. And there was nothing he could do. All of his modes of offense blocked, he was prevented from moving. His body slowly cracking under the pressure. Several painfully loud popping noises erupted from his body, with a loud yell from Leon. Not a yelp, a yell. A battle cry even. The cry was deafening, a last resistance by Leon. His friends looked at a helpless broken man. Many ribs and bones were broken, if not shattered completely, blood dripped from his mouth, teeth clenched and fire in his eyes.
"Josiah...You have decided your fate...It's a shame...we will never meet in the afterlife...I'm going towards eternal peace, and you, to eternal suffering. Enjoy this moment of victory." Leon stared directly at the infuriated face of his foe. Not afraid of his fate. |

| Josiah stood, inches away from Leon, as he drew his revolver.
"I tried to kill you with this weapon once before, but I must have missed. This time, I wont." He stepped back, and leveled the barrel to his encased foes' forehead. As the shot echoed, the stone encasement crumbled, and Leon's corpse fell to the ground. "And this time, stay dead." |

| Leon's body fell, lifeless, and hit the ground. The zealot was eliminated, hopefully he was not the last hope for earth. Leon died valiantly, though broken. He faced his death with pure honor, and no regret, much like he lived his life. He was so damn sure he was destined to kill that bastard. All his destiny got him was a bullet in the brain. So much for happy endings. (Last edited by White on 11-26-07 05:18 AM) |

| Holly screamed.
"You son of a bitch Josiah!!!" She shouted, tears stinging her eyes. "You son of a bitch!!" she shouted again, clenching both of her hands into tight fists. That was it. There was nothing else to say as she stared down at the mess surrounding Leon's lifeless body. Her eyes were narrowed angrily, but she still stood shaking. Her blood was rising. If Holly's temper flared before, it was nothing compared to this moment. |

| ((I so didn't forget to describe where we are.))
The helicopter floated above a barren, snow-covered landscape. The only thing marring the Russian snowscape was an abandoned building. The deserted Marinae research facility had obviously not been touched in years. The barn-like building's roof had collapsed, as had one of the walls. The floor had rotted away, revealing a part of the underground structure beneath. Josiah stood, looming, above Holly, mourning over Leon's corpse. "Silly girl, that boy was but a minor inconvenience in my plans. You, on the other hand..." Josiah raised his hand and Holly began to float in the air. Without warning, there was a cry from Josiah's left, and Henry's form leaped onto Josiah. Holly dropped the short distance to the ground, as Josiah was pinned down by her father. Henry rained blow after blow down on Josiah, but in the fray Josiah managed to free his hand. He clenched his fist and a large pylon broke through the ground. With a flick of his wrist, the pylon flew towards him, knocking the elderly general off his chest and slamming him into one of the barn's remaining walls. Josiah stood and wiped the small amount of blood from his nose, and cracked it back into place. The mark on the bridge of his nose faded away almost immediately. He took a deep breath through his newly reformed nose and began to approach Holly. |

| With a strange flash, Seifer appeared in the space between Holly and Josiah. His broadsword was drawn, pointed at Josiah's neck, and Seifer stood at the ready, eyes full of hate.
"You...you monster." Seifer said through clenched teeth, forcing himself not to fly into a rage. "You killed one of my closest friends...You're responsible for the death of countless great people...Not anymore. I'm not letting you kill anymore!" Seifer used one of Old Darren's crystals to freeze time, filling the field with silence and floating orbs of snow. "This is between you and me now. I might not have it in me to kill you, but I'll sure as hell make you bleed." |

| (O_o I'm assuming since time was frozen, all other charries are frozen too?)
Holly looked up at Josiah as he approached her. Her hands were clenched into fists and her teeth gritted. Anger clasped her throat as Josiah spoke, but she was unable to find the words to express her detest. Her shard was gripped tightly in the palm of her hand. Then, suddenly, Holly felt lighter. She looked down and gasped as she watched herself rising up. "Unless you can pry it from my corpse, you can't have it." She muttered, gripping the shard even more tightly. Then, to her suprise, her father had lept through the air, attacking Josiah. She hit the ground with a soft thud, a small amount of air escaping her chest. "NO!" She shouted, leaping immediately to her feet, but was too late. Josiah had already tossed Henry to the side. She made a move to go and get Henry, but Josiah was in her path. "Bastard..." She mumbled as she prepared herself to knock him down if she had to in order to get to Henry, but Seifer stepped up to plate. "Seifer, wai--" It was too late. Seifer had already frozen time. |

| Josiah knocked Seifer's sword away with his left forearm and outstretched his right. A pole, an inch in diameter and just over seven feet in length flew towards him from the rubble of the facility. He caught it and swung it towards Seifer's midsection. | |||

| Seifer reacted faster than ever before. Holy Trinity activated and attached to the hilt of the sword, bringing it back just in time for Seifer to catch it and block the pole. He bounced back several feet from the impact, but he remained unharmed. He swung the sword around and focused for a minute.
"Time to end this." The air about him started to vibrate, and all around Josiah the air began to vibrate. Seifer's eyes were clenched shut. In a flash, he seemed to become a dancing blur all around Josiah. In a few seconds, it appeared there were multiple Seifers, all moving quickly around Josiah in random patterns. Seifer had become an illusion. This was the Sacred Sword Dance, amplified by Seifer's shards to the point it was impenetrable. Seifer knew this was the answer to stopping Josiah. |
