Alarms sounding, people screaming, oh the humanity! Would no one come to the aid of those unfortunate citizens of Radiant Garden? Leon and the rest of the Restoration Comittee were doing their best to round everyone up and keep them safe, but that still left one problem. Who was going to stop the madness? Fortunately there were two who answered the call, whatever their motives were. And one of them was a villain that Cloud himself had fought several times.
Heartless ran the streets. As did Shan Yu, Scar, and Oogie Boogie. Then there was Hook, and Malificent. And who knows who else. But the thing was, they weren't the real deal, they were all fakes. Digital copies. Wait a sec, one busted down the door of a home. And it looked like Sephiroth. But you knew it was a fake because it glitched from time to time. No doubt that would make one certain person mad to see. Fakes doing something he didn't want them to do. Where was the law?! Where was the justice?! Where are the guys that can save this poor poor town?! Well... let's find out.
[Okay first objective is to clear the marketplace and head for Merlin's house, without harming the three innocent people, and without damaging the buildings very badly.
There are fifty enemies, 45 Neo Shadows, 2 fake Hooks, and 3 fake Oogies. One person is about five feet away from where you will start out, one is by the entrance to the borough, and the last by that boxed in area of what appears to be construction supplies. Carry on.]

This was a familiar thing. If he was ten years younger. Back then these kinds of missions were common place for him. Except now it wasn't quite so much a mission and Sephiroth wasn't impressed to see that Cloud hadn't come. He'd get rid of the boring atmosphere with the place by ridding it of the Heartless.
Apparently he was at marketplace, or wherever, Sephiroth hadn't really taken the time to get to know this world the first time through. He went forward, Masamune in hand, waiting for the obvious Heartless to appear. It was useless for them to conceal themselves from him.

Ah...Another little mission for him to complete, how charming. Jumping from roof-tops, the male jumped off of the final one to come to where the trouble was. Flipping a few times and landing on his feet, his right arm extended, a scythe appearing in his palm. Standing, he looked to the area before him arching a brow.
"Wow, what a mess."
He whispered, soft lips sliding through his lips and into the air. Turning his head, he saw a man with similar white hair such as his, but much longer. And a sword ten times larger than his scythe, how did he even carry that thing around? The nobody walked beside him, resting the bottom of his scythe to the cement and staring out into the distance.
"You here for the distress calls of the humans as well?"

Uh oh! Those three people are in trouble! One of them is being carried away, the other attacked. The third is just crying his ass off. Kinda pathetic of him. Better hurry, or they won't be around much longer.
[number of rounds until two of the three are gone for good: 1
this means you have one post each to get down there and help]

"I guess. We better hurry. I'll take the one being carried away, you help the other two, don't ask just do!" Sephiroth then shot forward, his wing shooting out from his right shoulder and carrying him into the air, in a moment's time he was above the Heartless and human. Sephiroth sighed, wondering why he was doing his old job. It was cumbersome, was for tools, and the same thing over and over again. He did like it oddly enough.
Masamune came straight forward at the Heartless's hips, Sephiroth had completely circled the Heartless; a clean cut from what he saw and one that in the next moment would allow Sephiroth to get the man to safety and rush back to the others. Just like old times.

Mardiax nodded, dashing forward my pressing his palms behind him and firing a huge burst of Telekinetic Energy. Flying to his target, he span when arriving, Scythe in hands he sliced through a group of Heartless attacking the man. Grabbing him by the hand, he ran over to the crying civilian, sighing to his cowardice. Grabbing his arm, he ran over to where Sephiroth was, looking around himself, he didn't like the feeling he was getting.
It wasn't over, far from it. There were more things out there that needed to be taken care of for sure, this was too easy. Almost felt like a trap, looking over to his partner.
"Where do we put these lowsies?"

It appeared that someone had indeed heeded Radiant Garden's call for help! And the three people were saved from these horrible things. Who knows what would've happened to them in a few more minutes? They ran back to the safety of the borough. With the three that couldn't protect themselves gone, all the enemies turned toward the would be heroes. And sure enough, the Heartless surrounded them. Each one looked as though ready to leap. The digital fakes just circled them, waiting for their turn. Ten Heartless lept at Sephiroth, and ten at Mardiax. As they jumped into the air to attack, five more Heartless charged at each of them, totaling thirty attacking Heartless. Could these two defeat the Heartless?
[Sephiroth killed one, Mardiax killed three. That leaves you with 41 enemies left]
Ah but these enemies were impatient, and wouldn't give the two a chance to attack, two Heartless grabbed Sephiroth's feet, and one grabbed Mardiax's. They began pulling the two down into the pools of darkness that now lay under them.
[These Heartless pulling you can't be destroyed yet. They will show themselves after you beat the other Heartless. Rounds until you're pulled into the darkness: 2
You have so little time for one reason: you guys are a little bit more powerful than the usual rper in terms of abilities and fighting capabilities. And with these Heartless pulling you down, you can't move your legs. Better hurry.]

Sephiroth scoffed at the newly appearing enemies, then readied Masamune to tear through their ranks. Before he knew it additional Heartless appeared and charged both of the rescuers legs. Dragging them into darkness....to which Sephiroth nearly laughed. Really?
"This is annoying. Listen, what's your name? I'm Sephiroth. We might die right here or not be so well if we don't do something quick. The problem is if we get free, we get rushed by all of those fellows. I'm going to assume you're a nice kind person, and if that's the case what I'm about to do will only prick and ring a bit in your ears....otherwise this will hurt some." Sephiroth raised his unused hand before them both and clenched it together. A dark light outlined his body, white and black puffs appeared and disappeared all around.
In the next moment Sephiroth was bombarded by a massive amount of dark energy (to which his own ability barely tickled him) while everything around him in the marketplace was hit by an equal large amount of light energy. The darkness was a small ball at the core of the explosion white the light encased everything else; both affinities damaged but obviously whatever was caught in one felt it more. Directly targeting someone that would actually take damage from this ability would easily tear them to pieces. However, Shadow Flare would still get the job done in striking the army of Heartless coming at them now and pulling them down, and sufficiently eradicating them.
"That my friend, is what I call Shadow Flare."

Mardiax readied his scythe with both hands, staring out toward the heartless that came at them with full speed. Slowly sinking into the depths of nothingness, he wondered what happened to nobodies that were pulled into darkness. But before he could think on it, he turned his head to look at Sephiroth, making a quick introduction and explaining that this would hurt. Mardiax could deal with the pain game, wincing from the powerful attack that occurred. Wiping out the hordes of Heartless, but a few were actually still coming toward him it seemed.
Five were left, they might have been out of his radius of power. Closing his eyes, he gathered the power of his telekinesis within his grasp. One hand rising and the other lowering, till they suddenly slapped together. A huge chunk of invisible force flew out from his palms, the impact would push both Sephiroth and Mardiax's bodies back a bit. The Horizontal attack slicing all the Heartless down the middle, the upper half of their small bodies falling tot he ground and twitching before suddenly poofing into black dust.
"I'm Mardiax...And to be honest, you talk too much."
Mardiax turned, gazing to Sephiroth with his maroon orbs, a blank expression on his face. Only to look out to the hordes of Heartless still out there, it wasn't over.

[ didn't see that coming, good thing Pryth told me to expect things like that. Okay you guys are free]
More Heartless showed up, about twenty in all, totalling about twenty five now. Then they vanished into darkness. The data villains also left. What was going on? Not sure. Suddenly a townsperson ran up to them.
"I saw what you did. Come on, I'll show ya where you have to go." He ran to the borough, and then stopped by Merlin's house. He then yelled that they had to go to a computer room on the other side of the town, and he pointed in the general direction. Then he went back to Merlin's house.
[okay guys, start heading there.]
Unknown to our two "heroes" though was that thirty Heartless lay in wait for them at the entrance to the Bailey, the only way to their objective.

"Heh, you remind me...never mind." Sephiroth snickered then looked at the person running towards. What was this, a towns person out in the open? He listened quietly and went over the words in his head. Something wasn't right, even more so...this man running about so freely. It wouldn't be the first time he'd been tricked, or perhaps he was too cautious.
Sephiroth shot a warning glance halfway at Mardiax and decided to take the lead. Masamune was lowered, though it did not bob haphazardly as he walked; Sephiroth held it firmly enough that in a moment's notice he could respond.

Mardiax arched a brow to the man running up toward him, and also had an eerie feeling about him. He should have been devoured by darkness by now, and he never saw this man when they were fighting. Curious, he turned to look at Sephiroth's gaze, nodding in understanding. He walked behind Sephiroth, his right palm gripping the Scythe that was held in his hand tightly. Maroon eyes staring out to the man that lead them to their next destination, why did everything just vanish as well?
This was no time to think on things, he thought to himself, slapping himself into reality focusing what the task was ahead. Senses sharp, he could even hear himself breathing very clearly, hell, even the man ahead. Perhaps things weren't as bad as they seemed, but seeing the town over-run by heartless and images of villains. It was unlikely.

The two warriors arrived at the bailey without trouble. Unfortunately, trouble was now waiting for them. The moment they got there ten of the Heartless headed their way. You look around, trying to find the fastest way to the bailey, and when you find it, thirty more Heartless block the way. One of you notices a crane with a wrecking ball attached to it nearby. You can't say for sure, but the cab of the crane appears to have four levers.
Reation Time!
[You have four choices:]
--- 1) Go back (Ends quest)
--- 2) Fight the Heartless as normal
--- 3) Use the surrounding area to your advantage, and get passed them
--- 4) Try and use the crane to your clear a path through the Heartless
[Only one of you can use the crane, so talk it out via pm or im or in the Cbox. Once you've decided, go ahead an post what you decided to do and post the beginning of your attempt. If you use the crane, you cannot start it just yet, there is another reaction command with it.]

2) is chosen.
"Wonderful. Mardiax, cover me, bide some time and I'll handle what's left." Sephiroth held Masamune down at his side and held his idle hand up to the sky. A great swirl of black clouds gathered, through them a red color began to form. The red color began to separate and divide itself, individual dots were now clear. "Not yet...just a little longer."
Sephiroth surveyed the situation. Certainly something that could be handled. If anything bothered Sephiroth, Mardiax was the first line of defense, to which Masamune shortly followed.

Mardiax turned his head to Sephiroth, nodding as he looked to the ten invading Heartless. Conjuring his Telekinetic powers, he fired them forward to knock a few of them into the air. Swiftly running toward them with scythe in his right hand, jumping into the air and onto one of the spawn's heads. He span his scythe so it would slice down its head, moving his other hand to the ground and firing a blast of telekinetic energy to fly him into the air on the head.
It soon vanished when he was getting close to the ground, spinning with weapon in both hands. Cutting through three of the lesser annoyances near-by, one swiped at his chest, but he blocked it with the base of the scythe. Spinning it to hit the blunt roughly at its head, then slice its legs off to make it fall backward, falling in mid-air till it was stabbed suddenly by the blade of the large piece of metal, dispersing into black ashes. The other five rushed him from all sides, this is where he placed his hand down to the ground again and shot another invisible force. All the minions jumped up into the air with him, lifting his item of death, he stabbed one straight in the head and lifted it off its body, slamming into another fool to make them both disperse.
Three left, dashing at him with their claws, gravity taking its tole and dragging them all back to the earth. Blocking many swipes of black dagger like fingers, the nobody sliced his scythe through yet another one. Firing pulses of Telekinetic energy against the two heartless, and releasing one behind him to speed after the two limp adversaries. When behind them, he placed his weapon's blade to both their necks and sliced both their heads off. Vanishing into dust, black hearts floating into the air. Panting, Mardiax looked over to Sephiroth and gave him a slight nod, running up to him and bearing his weapon, ready for whatever else came toward them.
