Mission 3 : [Video]

[argentimperator]

[The PCD is not picking up Sephiroth very well because he's holding it in one hand and moving a lot, but there are flashes of leather, silver hair, and steel. Mostly, what the PCD is picking up is the absolute devastation around him. Sephiroth is out in one of the more urban areas of the Wastelands, and he is destroying it. The mangled corpse of a horned worm is briefly visible as Sephiroth leaps into the air.

There's a quick series of slashes, visible as flickering steel in the feed, but more revealed by the arcs of blue-white light that result, cutting through a building and sending it crashing apart in pieces.]

This is unsatisfactory. Is there anyone willing to spar with me? In the interest of full disclosure, I am capable as both swordsman and magic user, and I am not in the best of moods.

[Vincent twists in mid-air, blocking the strike with his claw-covered hand.

Sephiroth feels like he is on edge. He's got that millisecond of ... unbalance.

There are sparks as metal hits metal, and Vincent throws his foot, looking to hit the other man straight in the middle of the chest.]

[He is very on edge, and not used to having to compensate for all this emotional upheaval in a fight.

That's why the kick actually lands, sending him back a couple of steps and knocking the breath out of him for just a moment. The power behind Vincent's strike... oh yeah, that's Hojo's work, alright.

He recovers quickly, though, and one of his materia lights.]

Firaga. [Have fireballs, Vincent.]

[Vincent blinks as the kick lands. He wasn't really expecting to touch Sephiroth that early in the fight. The young man really must be disturbed by what happened.

The fireballs seem to say, though, that it's probably not going to happen twice. That was a lucky strike.

Vincent's cape seems to take a life of its own, wrapping around him and spinning, becoming a flurry of red tendrils as it zooms between the fireballs.

Not using his gun means he has to either use his hands, or call one of his ... trump cards. He'd rather not do that just yet, and Sephiroth has many ways of fighting him from a distance if he wishes to.]

[No, definitely not happening again if Sephiroth has anything to say about it. He's rather disgusted with himself for letting it happen once.

That's an interesting trick Vincent has there, and Sephiroth quirks an eyebrow before slashing his sword through the air, sending a pair of differently-angled energy arcs flashing out at blur of red.]

[There's some more zooming and doging, but the slashes and oozing cuts on Vincent's face when he finally stops tell that he wasn't quite fast enough.

His own materia are custom-made for his gun, and he doesn't have the power to just draw them out like that. They don't even work in normal slots. In that case ...

A ball of dark light envelops Vincent and Galian Beast arupts from it, a fireball forming in each gigantic paw.]
