General Fic Summary: Before Sora, Kairi and Riku, another special trio were destined to fight the darkness: Cloud Strife, Aerith Gainsborough and Zack Fair. Their journey involves monsters, wizards, mechanics, ninjas, plus the greatest of all nemeses: love and death. Even the greatest love stories can become tragedies in a heartbeat. KH/FF7/FF8/FF12/Disney. Epic like an epic thing.
Chapter Summary: 79: Zack, Cloud and Kairi face Axel, Saix and Xemnas. Someone is going to die before this is over, but who?
Excerpt:
For a moment, Cloud honestly isn't in control of himself. Something alien swells inside him, pulsing out of synch with his own heartbeat. His body moves without him. He fades out of reality, where it's like he can see himself as a separate person. He watches as he runs and leaps with more speed and agility than ever before. He didn't even know he could move like that. Does he really know how to fight this way? Man, that throw must have knocked him around more than he thought.
The next thing he knows, his attacker is on the floor with his hood hanging half off his head, blood streaming from both his nose and a cut across his throat. He reaches up to touch the wound, which is shallow, since he got out of the way in time. Cloud knows with unnerving certainty that if the guy hadn't been fast enough, it would have been fatal. The thought is a grounding one. He falls back into his own head staggers as if he really has just fallen from a great height. He stares at his hands, at the blood under his fingernails, and feels a little sick. What the hell just happened?
