Sephiroth smirks darkly. "I don't deny it. But you never understood what I really meant. Think about it, Cloud. If your darkness calls me back, I can't be your darkness."
"Stop trying to confuse me!"
Cloud jumps back, letting the force of Sephiroth's clash propel him further into the air as he reaches with one hand to call a bolt of lightning down on his foe before landing in a half-crouch.
"I know what I have to do. I won't let your poison drag me back down into the darkness."

Sephiroth looks up, actually startled by this. Cloud rarely uses these powers. He barely leaps out of the way in time to avoid the lightning.
"Really? And what are you going to do about it?" he asks. "If it's magic you want instead of swords, I can deliver that as well."
He starts to raise his hand to summon pillars of fire.
"Really? And what are you going to do about it?" he asks. "If it's magic you want instead of swords, I can deliver that as well."
He starts to raise his hand to summon pillars of fire.
As the fire rises, Cloud can feel the force of it pulling him in. He tries to plant his feet, but the magic's too powerful - he finds himself sliding closer despite his best efforts. Gritting his teeth, he lifts his sword in a defensive position, but he can't see any way to avoid the flames short of getting above them somehow. But leaping now would just send him hurtling into them faster.
He has to do something. He refuses to accept defeat at the hands of his own Heartless.
The pillars' force only gets stronger the closer Cloud's dragged toward them, and eventually it knocks him off his feet. It's an instinct rather than a conscious thought when he reaches out with one hand in a desperate, last-ditch effort to shield himself...
...and the ground seems to fall out from under him as he drops down through a portal of dark energy with a surprised sound, simply vanishing. The darkness itself, though, does not vanish. It exerts a fell gravity of its own, and it spreads.

Sephiroth grunts in surprise as the portal opens and he falls in as well. "What have you done, Cloud?" he demands. "You're tapping into the darkness again? You always fall back on it in tight situations. Strange that you want to give me what you think I want!"
He spreads his wings as he falls. Where are they going to end up? And what's going to happen back in Hollow Bastion? He had seen the darkness spreading. They need to get back somehow. But first they have to get out of this....
At the other end of the portal, a monster growls and then roars. They're falling right into its domain.

"A lecture about the darkness? From you? Don't make me laugh." Cloud's disdain at the hypocrisy is real, but it's also covering a bit for how unsettled he is. He didn't even know he was capable of opening portals.
He has no idea what new mind game Sephiroth is playing with him now, but he can figure that out later. Right now, there are more pressing issues.
Like whatever is roaring at the end of this descent.
Cloud flips his sword around in his hands and shifts so that if whatever's down there happens to be standing just beneath the churning inkblot that is this portal, it's likely to get a very large and unpleasant sword-shaped wake-up call.

Sephiroth grunts. The majority of what he usually tells Cloud are things Cloud doesn't want to face, but he always tends to get blamed for whatever Cloud is doing, like falling into the darkness and making deals with underworld gods. Still, this is hardly the time to be arguing about it.
He is also preparing for a fight. Cloud's idea is a good one, for once, and he readies the Masamune likewise.
As the end of the portal nears, the monster is nearby but not directly under it. It roars at the portal and at them coming out of it. Then it blasts at them.
Sephiroth blocks the blast and retaliates with his energy orbs. He lands on the ground but soon is in the air again, slashing at the monster as it snaps at him. When it sees Cloud, it blasts at him too.

Cloud lands before the attack comes his way, so he rolls under it to get closer to the beast. Much as he'd like to take Sephiroth on while he's distracted by this thing, the monster won't discriminate. So: take it down first, then deal with the other monster here.
He strikes hard and fast, relentless, and the beast roars but seems hardly the worse for wear despite taking every hit. "What is this thing?" he says, pausing to sheath his blade in crackling lightning.

"Some type of dragon or wyvern, it seems," Sephiroth says. "We must have fallen into its treasure horde."
Even his Heartless Angel attack isn't slowing it down. Now he's growing honestly concerned.
"We don't stand a chance. I'll just make a portal and we'll go out the way we came in."
But as he's starting to try to do that, the thing lunges again. He has no chance to concentrate. He blasts it back with his energy orbs and flies back over to Cloud. "Come on! We'll go in the sky and I'll make a portal where it hopefully can't reach in time." He reaches to grab for Cloud's arm.
((OOC: Maybe Cloud won't agree and Sephiroth is hurt/killed trying to save him when the monster attacks again during the argument?))

The mysterious man with silver hair and three blue wings was strolling about Radiant Garden, looking for anything unusual or out of place. (Cloud would likely think he was the most unusual thing out and about.) So far everything seemed calm….
After waking up in a small clearing, Ella was walking in the forest hoping to find someone or at least civilization so she could figure where she was. And more importantly, how to get home. She was also wondering why she was dressed almost like a princess. Waist length blonde hair was styled in an up-do. She wore an elegant strapless blue dress with silver strap heels. Her dark blue eyes suddenly spotted a village in the distance.
... Well, young women emerging from the forest dressed like they were going to a formal ball certainly counted as unusual.
"Hello," he greeted as he went over, all three wings clearly visible. "May I help you?"
"Hello," he greeted as he went over, all three wings clearly visible. "May I help you?"
Ella stared at the handsome man with three wings. “Yes. I don’t know where I am or how I get here. I’m not even sure of who I am,” she replied.
Well, that was concerning.
“This is Radiant Garden,” he said. “I am Sephiroth. Do you remember anything?”
“This is Radiant Garden,” he said. “I am Sephiroth. Do you remember anything?”
She thought for a moment while absentmindedly touching a silver locket that was around her neck . “I sorta remember a guy’s face. But I don’t recall his features too well other than long white hair,” Ella replied.
"Perhaps there's a clue inside your locket?" he suggests.
She looked at the locket and saw the name,Ella, carved in elegant script. “The name on it says Ella so I suppose that could be my name,” she said opening the locket. Inside was a photo of a smiling handsome guy with kind brown eyes and long white hair. “That’s him. He’s the guy,” she said, sounding both happy and sad.
"It likely is your name," Sephiroth said. He looked at the boy. "I haven't seen that person around here, however."
“Do you know of anyone who could help me remember?” Ella asked. As soon as she asked, she heard several voices close by. One of them saw Sephiroth and rushed over excitedly.
"Merlin might be able to do something," Sephiroth replied, "but it's difficult to restore memories even by magical means, unless they were taken away by magic."
He looked up to see who was coming.

“May I speak with Merlin if it’s possible?” Ella asked.
Rushing over were 3 duck humanoid boys along with an older male humanoid duck. The kid wearing red stared curiously at Ella while one in blue spoke with the older male and the kid in green. “Hello everyone. I’m Ella. Nice to meet you,” she said with a smile.

“If he’s here. He’s often traveling,” Sephiroth said.
“This is Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Donald Duck,” he introduced.
“Nice to meet you, Ella!” said one of the boys.
“This is Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Donald Duck,” he introduced.
“Nice to meet you, Ella!” said one of the boys.
Ella hoped Merlin was here in this land and was able to tell her if magic took away her memories. And hopefully recover them.
“Are you a princess? Where are you from?” Huey asked excitedly. “She obviously is since she’s wearing a dress,”Dewey replied.
“I suppose I could be one but I’m not sure since I don’t remember anyone about myself,” Ella replied.
“Are you a princess? Where are you from?” Huey asked excitedly. “She obviously is since she’s wearing a dress,”Dewey replied.

Sephiroth definitely hoped they could figure out all the mysteries of Ella's presence.
"A dress doesn't make someone a princess, boys," Donald grunted, while giving Sephiroth the evil eye. He still didn't trust the man after the time he, Goofy, and Sora had met him.
"Amnesia?!" Louie exclaimed. "Never fear; the Junior Woodchucks are on the case! We'll solve everything!"

Ella noticed that Donald didn’t seem to like Sephiroth very much or if at all. She was curious as to why.
“Princess or not, we’ll solve this case,” Huey declared. “Is there anything you recall at all?” Dewey questioned.
“I only know my name and that the photo of a guy inside this locket is probably important to me,” Ella replied. “What exactly is a Junior Woodchuck?”
