Thats my wolfman! Squall got up and dusted himself off, That tails gonna get in the way unless we can do something about it... Squall ran behind leviathan and took a swing at the end of his tail. Bastard! Ouch! Squall grimaced and grabbed his shoulder, plagued by injury! * Shoots at leviathan more*

"Whoa!" Reno almost got washed out with the tide, but Ami grabbed his shirt collar, anchoring herself into the sand. He gagged as he jerked to a stop.
The water started to boil and become a mist... Reno coughed, waving his arms to try clearing the air a little.
Ami could barely see her foe through the fog, and her ammo wasn't infinite. She decided she'd better wait for a clearer target. She looked around frantically. "Where's Squall?!"
"Taking on the Lizard King, last time I checked," Reno said. Soon as he did, he wished he hadn't... he saw Ami plunge through the thick mists to help him. "Careful, kid!"

Leviathan hisst and smacked Squall in the face with his rattle and wrapped his tail around him squeezing harder and harder. he pointed his sword at squalls throat.
Leviathan: "I don't have my water....but I can still cut you up....or crush every bone in your body.....the envy.....Your life....so much of it yet to live....but your time is up...."

"Dream on, demon!" Ami screamed, attacking the demon from behind. She grabbed for the sword. Anything to loosen that grip... anything to keep Squall safe...
Reno rolled his eyes and began swinging the EMR at the creature's tail. Better keep the girl from hurting herself...
Rude pulled up at the edge of the beach. The courier leapt out of the vehicle and ran for his life. Rude managed to keep Nikky from following suit. "Stay in the car." He got out and strapped the Sacrifice's energy cell to his back. He primed the trigger/shaft mechanism. "STEP AWAY FROM THE DEMON!" Soon as they're a safe distance back, that demon is Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Lutz dashed over to Rude.
Lutz: "So this is your toy you spoke of huh?"
Leviathan thrashed and dropped Squall. He hisst out in pain and Reno bashed his tail. Leviathan smack Reno with his shield and Reno flew back into the watery sea. Leviathan turned and came face to face with Ami, he tapped into her mind. Rinoa....Rinoa....Rinoa... Whispers of that name ran through her mind. The snake slithered up to Ami's ear.
Leviathan: "Yes there was someone before you.....Rinoa..."

Ami froze. How much more of this can I take?
Reno dragged himself out of the water and cleared his hair out of his eyes. He brushed a jellyfish off his coat... and saw Rude taking aim with the Sacrifice. "Ami, watch it!"
He tackled her out of the way as Rude locked the three triggers together. "Let's show this prehistoric b*****d how we do things downtown."
He opened fire, sending a stream of orange light searing towards Leviathan's body. It contacted and began to drain Chaos cells from him, pulling them back into the Sacrifice's matter storage chamber.

Leviathan Hisst!!!!
Leviathan: "No! envy......"
The red snake was sucked right into the weapon of Rude. Little chaos matter flew straight into the gun. The snake disappeared but what remained was only a human. it was Leviathan's human self. He looked around and at his hands and feet.
Leviathan: "oohh....Thank you! You set me free!"
Leviathan ran over to ami and helped her up.
Leviathan: "I am sorry all of you...I was just doing what the life stream order....you see not all the life stream is good.....their are being within the life stream with great power....most of them are good but there is one....one that is.....evil....that being created us 7 deadly sins and....."
Just then a hand ripped right through Leviathan's human body. the stealthy figure then reviled himself. he was a demon that had the appearence of a fly a demon fly.
Figure: "Now now Leviathan.....best not be giving out our secrets ....We will meet again humans....."
The demon killed off Leviathan's human by consuming his head. the lifeless human body fell to the sand, and the demon was gone. you could only hear a whisper.
Beelzebub the Gluttony.....
The Chaos matter from within the gun leeked out the back and began entering Lutz, once more Lutz could feel more of the beast inside him....

Ami stared at the headless body, draining red blood into the clear water. The liquid became one with the reflection of the sunset...
Reno could tell she had gone into shock. She's seen too much grue for one day... He stood and swiped a couple of times at the sand caked on his uniform, but that didn't seem to help. He turned Ami away from the headless corpse and started leading her away. "You don't need to see this." The tide carried the decapitated body away...
Reno took Ami to Squall and nudged him. "Hey, look alive, dude. Your girl's gonna need some hardcore therapy after this."
Ami stood there like a salt pillar. The first fight I've had to face in my own strength... but did I win or lose? She knelt down beside Squall and clung to him, not knowing what else to do. At least I fought back my jealousy of Rinoa... but I'm still as curious about her as before.
Reno left the pair alone and went to the armored car, where Nikky was still waiting. "Told you I'd be back." He smiled at her. "Think maybe I better have a change before we go out tonight, huh?"
Rude took off the power cell and began looking at the storage chamber, slightly confused and more than a little p****d. "D**n... I could swear I made that thing airtight."

Reno glanced at the ignition. The keys were still in it. "Looks like delivery boy left us a free ride. Must be a courtesy detail." He got into the driver's seat. "We'll take it back when we're done."
He leaned out the window. "Yo, guys! We're headed back to the ship for a bit... then the Pier Club after that. Anybody need a ride?"
Rude nodded. "I need to take this back to the Ragnorak and see why it malfunctioned... if it even malfunctioned at all." He unloaded the weapon into the back and got back into the shotgun seat.
Reno checked the rearview. The others can get back on Ami's bike... He turned to Nikky. "I'll make it quick... we'll want to get to the club early. That place fills up fast." He stroked her hair. "And hey... ya mind if we make one quick stop on the way?" He tried to sound casual about it, but inside he was secretly hoping she'd say she did mind, because this was another one of those stops a person has to make, but doesn't ever want to...

nikky smiled. ''sure... i don't mind.'' she leaned back and looked out the window. she forced back fears and tried to look happy.

Reno took a deep breath. "Okay, cool." He started the car and headed back towards the ship.
Rude knew too well what stop it was he intended to make. "Reno, are you sure about this?"
Reno nodded. "Yes. I gotta do this. I always meant to."
Rude asked no more questions. Looks like he's finally starting to grow up. Nikky must be a good influence on him... or something.
((To Lower Junon))

It was obvious where the trouble in Junon was these days. Junon Beach. Everybody seemed to be talking about the tidal waves and the monster in the water that terrorized the humans on the beach. Gdosimirj could hear the conversations on every street corner in Junon, and she realized that a vigilante with a mind and the courage to destroy Jenova would obviously be attracted to the next catastrophe.
She spurred her chocobo towards the beach...
*********
Gdosimirj flinched away from the car passing her when she noticed the flash of red hair inside of it. She's here. Gdosimirj almost wished her long hair hadn't been in a bun so she could swish it over her face, but Reno didn't seem to have noticed her.
She tied her chocobo to a post and hopped off, heading briskly to the beach. A little stab of apprehension struck her as she sighted the couple on the beach, facing away from her, but she didn't stop or hesitate. This is it- now or never.
Gdosimirj called out to her from a dozen or so yards away. "Amnesty Lazuli." She paused for a moment. "You don't know me. But I know you."

Ami pulled away from Squall's embrace and had her guns in her hands in a moment. Oh no... Shinra trash, or another Sin.
But when she faced this woman, she found her to be neither. "Who are you?" Ami demanded.
She was feeling strange vibes from this one... But I thought my ESP was gone. That can only mean...
Ami could see, even as the light faded behind the horizon, that this woman had silver streaks in her hair... "Or maybe more to the point... WHAT are you? And give it to me straight, please-- I am not in the mood for games right now."

Gdosimirj winced. This was going to be harder than she thought.
"The who is easy. My name is Gdosimirj Sunset. Don't try to pronouce it, please- just call me Sunset." She gave a half smile in the hopes of lightening the mood, but she could see that Amnesty wasn't about to let her guns down. She sighed, her face crumpling back into the familiar hardened lines.
"The what is more difficult. Quite frankly, I'm not sure if there is a definition for it, but if there is, it won't sound nice, no matter how it's worded." She looked intensely into Amnesty's eyes. "I don't know how you did it, but you separated yourself from Jenova's power. In my case, it is, for some reason, much more difficult."
