Finding their way through the marsh wasn't easy. It was the last place Chaos had been sighted, but there was a lot of ground to cover and Tifa was very aware that Chaos could easily fly above them. She kept looking up, expecting at any moment for a dark figure to swoop through the Mist.

So when she stumbled across the body, she was taken by surprise. In fact, she actually stepped on the dead hand, and cried out when she realised it was a corpse.

"That's..." Tifa's eyes widened. She recognised that painted face, the clown's outfit. "Kefka..."

She shifted uneasily. She had fought Kefka before, but not alone: it had taken large groups to attack him and they'd never managed to actually kill him. The clown had always escaped. But something had finally defeated him, and Tifa was in no doubt as to what it was. It didn't bode well for their chances. She could only hope that the battle had weakened Chaos somewhat.

Shelke was not enjoying the swamp. The deeper came up past her waist, for one thing, and it was just...unpleasant. She'd tucked her pants into her shoes but all that did was make everything feel damper.

Still, there were far more important things to worry about, and when Tifa found the body the girl stepped past her, reaching out to turn the corpse in the water, looking over the injuries. She reached out and traced a finger over the massive gash where the clowns heart had been, along the edges of various scraps and cuts.

"It was Chaos." She confirmed unnecessarily as she straightened back up.

Yuffie physically grimaced at the sight of the dead clown in the marsh. Blegh. Great that he was dead, sucked cause now there was dead body stench along with the swamp stench. This was worse than Don Corneo.

"Serves Kefka right. He deserved it." Yuffie took that time to look upwards, eyes scanning the sky for the familiar form of Chaos. She was hoping it wouldn't have to come down to this.

Tifa nodded at Yuffie. "At least one good thing came out of this..." She stepped away, looking up again. "Vincent... Where are you?"
