Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sephriea nodded to his question."I'm feeling better, yes..You know I got through to Kadaj once...he even helped me a few times. I don't know what happened to him, why he just changed. I think Grandpa got to him.." Sepphriea sighed, resting against Cloud and cuddling up to him. "What if he's after Daddy too?" As she rested against him, she could feel her energy slowly coming back to her, just as Cloud had of his own. Both of there deathly pale faces were starting to return to there normal. "He doesn't like Daddy.."

A figure could be seen moving through the capital, almost seeming to float along the ground among the mist coating the place. The whole capital, for some currently uknown reason, was covered in fog, thick, substantial stuff that messed with perception. It moved slightly, small eddie's as the air currents moved, making it seem inhabited with the spirits of the anceint one's that had once inhabited it. The building's loomed out of the fog, small solidity amongst the strange unreality of the fog, and the single black figure floating through like a spirit...

Arcene moved through the fog with an assurance of movement and flowing grace that made him seem like he had been here for a long time, which wasnt true. He had only just gotten there actually. He simply was very sure footed. His hand trailed along the outside of one of the shell building's as he walked along it, pondering the strange city within the fog.

Zack's motorcycle came to a stop inside the city, he saw the three there already, Jake sitting down against a wall, Ventus standing, and Neo leaning against a wall with his arms crossed, Jake was the first to notice them "hm, you're late" he said and stood up Zack shrugged as he dismounted the motorcycle, he looked around, he had only been there once, to teach Cloud a little lesson, but it was the first time for any of the others, he turned to Aerith "so, can you work you're Cetra magic now?" he asked, which Jake shook his head to, it sounded kinda rediculous the way he said it!

A creature near ten feet tall would appear from thin air to greet them. His muscular features seemed as if he himself were made of armor. Horns arched out from either side of his head, and jagged teeth pointed from his jaw. His purple wings stretched outward, and he hunched over to get a good look at the group. A clawed hand tickled at his chin for a moment as though he was locked in thought. "Aerith Gainsborough." He called to the girl, his mouth motioning to a smile. "It seems Sephiroth didn't quite finish the job, now did he?" The giant demon taunted her, chuckling beneath his breath.

Even before the creature had completely appeared above them she could feel it's presence there. She almost instantly froze up when the creature appeared fully before them. This was not part of her plan! Did this place just have a bad fate for it when she arrived? "...How do you know my name and about what happened here with Sephiroth..? " Was all she asked.She didn't have many words to say through the shock of anything like that creature appearing so suddenly and unexpectedly.

Aerith stepped back away from him, her hand reaching up to grasp the small orb of materia she wore in her hair bow, taking it into a firm grip of her hand to protect it from him ever getting the chance of snatching it away from her. "You will never touch this materia! This is the only thing I have my mother left me. I won't..let you hurt my friends ether. " Aerith held out her free hand, as the Princess Guard suddenly appeared in it.

He watched Aerith, his expression remaining the same before he gazed to the others that had come with her. "Chaos, God of Discord." He repeated, nearly impressed by these words however he was about to make their day a lot worse. Zack's voice left a ringing in his ears, as if someone had run their nails down a chalkboard. He grinned, then threw his wings back and forward creating a gust of wind powerful enough to uproot a tree directly toward the group. "I was speaking to the girl!" He yelled; "Now run home little boys and you may well live to see tomorrow!"

The group quickly jumped out of the way, Zack grabbing Aerith when he did, to make sure she got out fine "actually I think this has just begun!" he yelled and stabbed his sword into the ground modulating phase: Aerith... Power Surge! Zack made a prey as a healing wave encircled him good luck he heard Aerith's voice, "thanks" is what he always said, afterwards he was granted invincibility for a time period, right when he got his sword he got into stance, Jake was a little suprised at the way he acted, but he knew there was now to be a fight, so may as well act confident for it! "now then, if you don't want to die, you're gonna want to walk you're ugly a** right on out of here, get it?" he said with a grin as he got both his swords ready, Neo getting ready as well and Ventus activating his armor and readying his keyblade in reversed stance as always "please just leave now!" he saod, he could feel the darkness coming off him, there wasn't a spec of light in this monster, they were all suprised when he just left though, huh? Zack thought and shrugged as they put their weapons away, Zack turned to Aerith "well that was... Anti-climactic" he said with a shrug "I was expecting an epic battle, but, oh well I guess"
