Alex of BurgVS Sephiroth
By: Ryan Buchanan

"Alex, Where are you? " Nail yelled with a high pitch voice. "I’m right here Nail! " Alex yelled back loud enough for Nail to hear. Alex lend over his knees to look closer at the blood that was spilled from a resent battle. "Alex! What are you looking at!?!? " Nail said, disgusted at the pool of crimson blood and the bloody foot prints leaving a trail leading through some freshly cut trees and tall grass. "My guess is that the Ultra Fiend, back there, was this things victim. " Alex shivered at the thought that something some able to kill an Ultra Fiend and walk away with no apparent injuries.
"Where am I? " Sephiroth said quietly to himself. "I don’t remember these plants, or that monster back there, plus my magic has little, if any, effect in this place. " Sephiroth was clearly getting upset over these things. "WHERE AM I! " Sephiroth scream out of frustration. Birds in the surrounding trees took off in flight after hear the Terrifying screams come from the ground below them.
"Look, over there! " Alex said pointing to the cloud of birds that were flying. He then heard a faint scream that was coming from the same area the birds where now flew. "Nail I want you to go get the others I’m going to check that area out. " Alex said as he look out over the trees from the top of the hill. "But, Alex…." Nail began to protest until Alex put his open hand up to silence him. "Now Nail! " Alex said in a harsh voice. "Alright, alright I’m going. You would think you were dying or something. " And with that Nail took off. ‘Now I’ll find out what is making that noise.’ Alex headed into the trees. He ran down trail for about a minute or two until he reach a wide clearing. The only thing in the clearing was a rock and a man wearing a black cloak with a massive sword in his hand on his knees. The dark figure stood up, he towered over Alex. He slowly turned to face Alex. As he was turning Alex started to regret that he ever came here in the first place.
Sephiroth looked at the young boy who just came out of the path he made. "I am Sephiroth, an Ancient and a GOD, you WILL tell me where I am! " Alex didn’t really know what to say to this mad man who called him self a god but Alex knew that the only goddess was Athena. "I am Alex of Burg, Dragon Master and loyal servant to Athena, and I will not answer to a false ‘god’! ". Sephiroth was visible mad. "You DARE to refuse ME!?!? " Sephiroth then thought to himself, ‘Why should I let this little pest annoy me.’ Sephiroth then slowly put his hand on the hilt of his sword, He saw the his pint size opponent was doing the same thing. "Well, If you won’t tell me then you will just have to die!" with that Sephiroth charged at his tiny foe drawing his sword an executing a slash at the same time that would of remove his head clean from his neck… If he had hit his target.
Alex drop from the branch that he had just jump up to while avoiding the sharp blade of this Sephiroth. "Its good to see that the people here can fight, it will make it more fun to kill them! " Sephiroth then swept the tip of the blade against the ground and angled up to cut Alex from his right to his left, but Alex brought ‘The Sword of Athena’ up to block the attack. The force of the blow sent him flying back, he crashed into a tree sideways. He stood there a second or two stunned from the ruff impact. But he quickly did a back flip to avoid Sephiroth’s sword again. Alex landed against a tree and lept right at Sephiroth, trying to head butt him put instead he was met with the back of Sephiroth’s hand, sending him a couple of feet to the left of his target.
Alex lied there reeling in pain from last attack of Sephiroth. "How pathetic, a servant to a goddess loses to so easily! " Sephiroth raised his sword up and force it down into Alex’s side. He yelled in pain, as the sword was forced deeper and deeper into his body. "POWER SLASH" someone screamed as a figure, taller than Alex but shorter the Sephiroth, rush out of the forest right at False God. Sephiroth saw the strange man coming at him. He than pulled the bloody sword out of Alex’s dead body and blocked the on coming attack. The surprising forces of the attack knock Sephiroth a couple of feet back. "Jess, see if you can help Alex! I’ll hold this clown back as long as I can! " Kyle said as he brought his sword up to block Sephiroth’s sword as it fell down upon him. " Alex you dumb, dumb, why did you go by yourself? " Nail said as he watched the raging fight between Kyle and the man in the black Cloak. "Nail, go get Luna, we might need the power of a goddess for this guy. " Jessica said. She watched over Alex as she tried to remember the spell to bring back the resent dead. Kyle brought his sword to his left foot to block Sephiroth’s sword and then pushed it up and tried to rush him but was met with Sephiroth’s elbow instead. Kyle was lying on his back as Sephiroth walked up to him raising his sword so he could behead his unworthy foe. But before he could he heard “By the power of Athena, "MIRACLE LITANY." A blinding light shown down on Alex’s body, lifting him in the air. At first nothing seemed to happen but then Alex’s hand started to move and he opened his eyes. "NO, impossible how can YOU use magic, and I can’t! " Before anyone answered, Sephiroth was kicked in the stomach. Kyle got up and handed Alex his sword and said, "Lets get him, " They turn to face Sephiroth, but he wasn’t there. "AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH! " Jessica screamed as Sephiroth loomed over her swinging his sword down towards her. "NO! " Both Alex and Kyle screamed as they watch Sephiroth swing down. Just then Mia yelled, "ICE SHELL! " Causing a shell of ice to appear over Jessica just a second before Sephiroth was going to cut Jessica in half. Nash then yelled, "THUNDERBOLT!" causing a streak of lighting to cross the sky and strike Sephiroth in the back.
Sephiroth got up after the lighting bolt burned his black cloak exposing his back. "Hhhoow, can you use magic and I can’t? " Sephiroth said confused about what was going on. How could he Sephiroth not use his weakest magic attack, but these little kids can? He thought about this for only a second when a woman voice said, "Because you’re from a different world then us. Your magic is useless out side of your world. " Sephiroth turned to see an another young woman wearing a long dress and a blue vest. "Who are you? " Sephiroth said demanding. "I am Luna of Burg, but some call me Athena. " ‘So this is their goddess, well I guess I’ll that care of her and the spell caster, and then those two swords men.’ After that Sephiroth charged at Jessica, who was out of her ice shell, but he ran into an invisible barrier, hitting it with a thud. Sephiroth pick himself up brought his sword up to block Alex’s sword from beheading him. He then sweeps kick Alex and then brought his sword to block another attack from Kyle. Sephiroth then jump up and through one of his materia at Jessica. It struck her in the head instantly killing her. "No, Jessica!!! " Kyle screamed and blindly charges at Sephiroth. Sephiroth rolled off Kyle’s sword and brought his around cleanly slicing him in half. In mid-spin he launched two more materia at Mia and Nash. Mia quickly used an ice shell spell to cover Nash, but she forgot to cover herself and was killed by the impact of the hard round orb. Nash was filled with rage as he tried to remember a spell but failed in doing so. Instead he just charges at Sephiroth. Sephiroth saw this and swung his sword around to cut Nash’s head, but Nash rolled under the attack and ram Sephiroth with his shoulder knocking Sephiroth back into Alex’s awaiting sword.
"AAARRHHHH" Sephiroth screamed out of pain. He walked off the sword and fell to his knees in his own pool of blood. "HOW CAN THIS BE? " Sephiroth said as he coughs up blood. He then reached into his pocket and pulled it out and hurled it at Alex. Alex brought up his sword and cut the orb in half missing him, but hitting Luna right in between the eyes. "No. " Alex said in a weak voice knowing that because of what he did Luna had died. He ran up to the goddess who was now on the ground by still alive. "LUNA, I’m sorry I didn’t mean to…" Alex stop talk has Luna put her hand to his mouth and said very softly almost to soft to hear, "I love you Ale…" She then closed her eyes and stop breathing. Alex opened his mouth but nothing came out. Because of the goddess death no sounds could be made, no light came from the sun, and no life could live.
