Sephiroth: “Marrrwwr. *blinks, then glares at her* *”That’s not very funny! You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?”* *makes an aggressive catlike growl and angrily swishes his tail* *”You said you would undo this, but you’re only making it worse.”*
Jenna: *calmly speaks to Sephiroth in the feline toungue. Her pronounciation is nearly perfect, even though she is not using a spell at all to assist her* “You are wrong. You should thank me. If you went around looking like that and speaking in English, they’d become suspicious. Now, goodbye.” *whips around and runs off. Even if Sephiroth tries to follow her, Jenna weaves through several cavernous cooridors until vanishing completely*
Sephiroth: *calls out to Jenna* “Where did you go?” *hisses* “Great…” *swishes his tail in aggitation and keeps walking down the path they were headed down before Jenna ran off* “Just my luck, getting stuck down here. I don’t even know where I’m going.”
Given that Sephiroth does not turn around, he’d soon enter a large cavernous room filled with dozens of cells. Each one of these prisons contains several humans, five at the least, nearly twenty at the most, who are in various states of neglect. Some are even women who had just given birth to newborns.
In addition to all the prisoners, there are several elite-status felines who had been given the gift of higher-evolution by their queen or had been born in a bipedal form. Most are pacing about, wasting time, while a few of the younger ones are standing infront of the cells and throwing things into them in order to torment the humans inside.
Sephiroth: *walks up ahead, scowling quite strongly at the fact his feet are wet and he’s alone, having no idea where he’s headed. As he moves up ahead however, he pins his ears back and scowls at the other felines, and what he sees. He doesn’t stop to talk and just moves through the area, trying to act natural, and casual so as not to arouse suspicion*
Most of the felines are not concerned about Seph’s presence at all, assuming that he is a traveler from another territory. In fact, most are more interested in keeping with their job than they are in investigating who this new feline is. However, as Sephiroth moves further into the stronghold, he’d find evidence of genetic manipulation and biological warfare under development. Also, he’d encounter felines who are much more serious about their work, whether they are bipedal or normal felidae.
In the center of the stronghold is a large room that almost resembles an arena. At the moment, there are only a few sparse felines gathering about around the perimeter, so it seems rather boring. However, there is one thing to take note of. On the Eastern face of the wall, about 20 feet above the ground, is a platform where a gold throne can be found. Next to this throne is a feline that is unique amoung all the others. For this one has white hair, almost similar to a human’s, as well as black fur on the rest of her body. In addition, this feline’s yellow eyes have a soft glow to them.
Sephiroth: *eyes the throne curiously and begins concocting a story in his mind as he strides towards it, walking through the room, his stance proud and confident. He gets down on one knee once he is near the throne and lowers his head* Permission to speak with royalty, if I may. I bring urgent news.
Seferia: *the pupils of her eyes narrow as she draws her attention to Sephiroth. She stares at him for several minutes before scowling* You are not meant to be here. Get back to your place. My queen will be out shortly. *swishes her tail. She can sense that Sephiroth is not one of theirs, but she can’t tell where he came from. In addition, his hair is giving him away as something other than one of Clawina’s followers*
Sephiroth: *bows his head further and gets up again, walking towards the outer circle. He does not want to do anything that will offend the others in the area. He takes a place on the sidelines and pays close attention to what’s going on, curious to learn more about where he is exactly*
Up above, there is a loud rumbling sound that shakes the roof. For, the first tower has fallen by this time. A few rocks fall down from to the gorund, but most that would hit any felines are stopped in mid-air by a seemingly invisible force. If Sephiroth were to track this force, he’d find that it is being created by Seferia.
Clawina: *moves into the throne room from a cooridor that leads directly to the elevated cooridor. A content smile is planted on her lips as she struts over to her throne.* It seems that we need not do anything to bring the end to our opressors, my children. *softly chuckles* Humanity will bring about their own destruction when pushed in the right direction. Today was a great victory for us. *broadly grins then suddenly changes her features into an extremely serious and stern expression* Bring forth condemned for today. I wish to see their grief before we send them to their fate.
Seferia: *remains at the side of the throne, not speaking. However, she keeps her focus on Sephiroth. She knows full well that he does not belong, but chooses not to do anything about him yet.*
Sephiroth: *remains on the sidelines and glances up to the platform where Clawina and Seferia are, his ears perked up as he pays close attention. He frowns as he listens to Clawina’s speech, dissapointed that she’s already aware of what’s happened outside, making his plan to play meseenger useless. He leans his back to the wall and folds his arms, just staying still for the time being*
The guards bow to Clawina’s demand and open up the doors in the back of the room. Once the entrance is opened, several dirty and haggard humans and shoved into the arena by several other of the higher evolved felines. These humans are both male and female, and they are both children and adults. Infact, there is one human present who is a female with a clearly recently born child in her hands. All of them are less than content, and the children are clearly weeping and asking why they are there. Meanwhile, the felines heard the humans toward the back of the arena before shoving a male who is about the age of twenty-five into the middle of the floor.
Clawina: *watches the parade of humans with an intense stare. There is a slight hint of a smile on her lips, but she is mostly remaining “regal” and stoic as her position dictates she should. Once all the humans are in place, she speaks up in English* The time to pay for your sins have come, humans. As dictated by my lord, you have all been sentenced to death for crimes that are unspeakable to all other creatures. Your race have caused destruction on grande scales. You have killed for the pleasure of killing, taking nothing more than skins in some cases. Some of your wretched species has even killed to prove you can and took nothing of that kill. Then, others of you take upon the lives of those weaker than your own. You make them slaves by not teaching them how to hunt for their own and take care of themselves. Then, you fail to provide the basic necessities that they require to survive. You starve, you beat, you shoot, and you commit acts that are unforgivable. For this, amoung other things, you have been condemned to death.
*She pauses for a moment then sadisticly smiles* And then, your species turn against your own kind and kill each other in mass numbers. *glances back to one of her attendants and nods. Soon afterwards, a monitor to the side of the room lights up and shows the reports of the fallen tower. In fact, by this time, the second tower is just about to fall. As the prisoners look up to see the destruction, several collapses onto the ground and begin to openly weep.* Out of your own selfishness, you strike down each other. Yet, in this arrogance, your species have killed others than your own kind as well.
To be continued.
Continuation:
So, I have been handed the task of ending your reign. *looks to the soldiers who had brought in the humans* Have they been properly prepared. *As the felines nod, Clawina grins then leaps down onto the main forum* Very well, each of you have been given the chance to pick a weapon to defend yourself. I prefer to give you the chance to prove your lives are worthwhile. If you can strike me down, then you win your freedom. *looks at the male who had been pushed into the open* So, begin.
*Not long after Clawina leaps down onto the main floor, the male lifts up an semi-automatic hand gun and begins to empty out the clip he was given into Clawina’s body. Clawina, in turn, chooses to slimply walk toward him and allow him to shoot through her chest and torso. At most, she flinches, but she is not overly phased by the strikes. If Sephiroth were to pay attention to her, he’d notice that she is healing herself as fast as the strikes are hitting her. By the time that Clawina is right infront of the male, his clip is empty. Still, he continues trying to shoot the gun, making an empty clicking sound with the gun* Nice try, human. My turn. *whips out her sword that hangs off her left hip then plunges it into his stomach just enough that the tip is a few inches into his flesh. Then, Clawina activates the rotors on the hilt of the sword, which makes the sword split apart into several spiked sections a that enlarge as they get closer to the hilt. As these sections spin, the blades slice into the humans’s flesh and creates a hole that is progressively digged larger. In addition, the blades rip apart his internal organs. For several moments, the man screams in pain before finally collapsing. As soon as the man is dead, Clawina deactivates her sword and shoves him away* Next.
Seferia: *continues to stare at Sephiroth, intensely scanning him. She can tell that he is not one of their own and dislikes his presence. Sephiroth can probably sense her probes with his own psychic abilities*
Sephiroth: *watches the scene unfold with interest. He narrows his eyes as he watches the humans brought in and tortured by Clawina, making a strong mental note to himself to stay out of her way. He hisses as he feels Seferia’s scan and tries to block her out of his mind, not liking her intrusion at all. He remains where he is however, not game enough to interupt and get himself ripped to pieces*
Clawina continues moving through the humans, allowing them to attempt defending themselves, though a few just stand there and cry. Despite the efforts of those who try, none manage to phase the feline queen for much longer than a few seconds at most.
Seferia: *frowns at what she finds and decides to speak up* My queen, there is one that does not belong here. *points to Sephiroth before using her abilities to lift him up into the air and suspend him over the arena* This one is a fake.
Clawina: *swishes around, slashing her tail spike through the current prisoner’s abdomen. She ignores the fact that the man’s guts are spilling out on the floor behind her and looks up at Sephiroth* Is that so? Very well. Expose him for what he is then. *bares her teeth in irritation as she looks over Sephiroth.
Seferia: *nods at Clawina and begins removing the spells that Jenna had placed over Sephiroth. However, before much can be done to change Sephiroth back to a human, a gunshot rings through the area. The bullet grazes past Seferia’s temple, which makes her loose conciouness and collapse. In turn, Sephiroth would fall down onto the ground because the white-haired feline is no longer actively holding him up*
Sephiroth: *loudly hisses as he falls back onto the ground, his tail swishing angrily* What makes you think I’m a fraud? I came from the surface bearing news, but you already know it and there is nothing new for me to report.
Clawina: *scowls as she watches Seferia collapse onto the ground and hisses in annoyance. So, the feline stalks over to Sephiroth and glares down at him* Is that so? If you are innocent, why was my second in comand just shot down by an accomplice of yours. *leans down to sniff him then pins her ears back* You.. You were the one with that female human before! Where is she? *loudly growls*
Sephiroth: *backs up towards the wall, immediately going on the defensive* I don’t know what you’re talking about, so don’t ask me! *does his best to look confused, because he wishes to deny knowledge of the fact he knows Jenna, wanting to keep his undercover disguise*
Clawina: *Scowls at Sephiroth and moves her sword into a battle ready positoin. Her tail furiously swishes behind her, occaccionally creating a rasping sound on the ground as the spiked tip scrapes across it* Do you take me for a fool? I do not forget smells that easily. You are that human male who interfered bef- *hisses in pain as a bullet slams into her backside and pierces her heart. She collapses onto her knees and pants in pain as she concentrates on shifting her shape in order to heal herself*
Jenna: Hrm.. Little feline has power, does she not. *the sorceress’s remains hidden in the shadows up above the arena. In addition, her voice echoes against the walls, making her position hard to track that way. Still, if one were to pay close enough attention, they’d see the glint of a rifle being lowered within a small enclove to the upper left porition of the arena* I do wonder, if her power comes from thought, what would happen if one were to… *smirks* Well, you know.
Clawina: *growls in irritation as she listens to the sorceress. Grabbing a bazooka that had been left on the ground by one of the executed humans, she leaps back onto her feet and swings around to face Jenna’s location. Firing the single shot left in the launcher, Clawina strikes the rocks under Jenna’s feet and makes the cliff that the woman was standing ontop of collapse. As the woman falls to the ground, Clawina tosses the weapon to the side and grips onto her sword again* I grow tired of your meddling, human.
Sephiroth: *is on the defensive at first, as Clawina comes towards him with her weapon drawn and ready. He jumps slightly in shock as she collapses onto her knees, and immediately looks up, and around the area, wondering the cause of the attack. He does not look long however, and smirks as he hears Jenna’s voice.* *”You’re late.”* *He snarls as Clawina snatches up the bazooka and fires, then runs out towards the fallen bits of debris and balcony, wanting to see if Jenna is alright* *”Why didn’t you levitate? Are you alright?”* *flicks some debris aside as he tries to dig in it to find her, assuming she has been buried in it. There is quite a bit of cloudy grey dust in the air and he doesn’t know where she is immediately, due to the fact he can’t really see so well in the dust cloud*
Jenna: *hisses as she falls off the cliff, but manages to remain upright. She lands ontop of a pile of rocks, releasing a loud “umph” due to the force of landing on her feet from that height. For a brief moment, she remains in a kneeling position as she recovers from her plummet, allowing the dust to hide her figure* ~Be quiet and stay out of my way, Sephiroth. This is not going to be a repeat of the last fight.~ *scowls at the male’s attempts to help her, not wanting assistance at all.*
*So, instead, she pays attention to the sounds of Clawina’s footsteps, pulling out a pair of katana swords while waiting. Once she hears the feline queen near her position while charging at the rubble, the sorceress leaps out from ontop of the rubble and flips over Clawina. Then, the sorceress swings around, anticipating Clawina’s own quick turn to face her. Once the two are out in the open, they begin to furiously fight. However, Jenna would do her best to stay a good distance away from Clawina, not desiring to be impaled by her spikes or sliced by her tail spike*
Sephiroth: *coughs and dusts himself off, retreating to the wall opposite so he keeps out of Jenna’s way. He just watches the pair do battle with great curiousity and interest, saying nothing for the time being as he doesn’t want to distract Jenna. He does however, keep an eye on Seferia should she interfere*
Jenna: *yelps in pain as Clawina manages to whack one of her blades out of her right hand. Despite the stinging pain, she does not stop and quickly moves to throw the remaining blade at the feline before flipping backwards. Eventually, she leaps up onto another ledge so that she can have enough time to think of a strategy to get past Clawina’s gauntlet of spikes and blades*
Clawina: *growls as as the sword is flung in her direction and quickly steps to the side. Thus, the sword continues to sail through the air and would likely land next to Sephiroth’s feet. As the feline queen watches Jenna retreat, she releases a loud snort and swishes her tail* A coward as always, human. You are smaller, weaker, and pathetic. *scowls and moves toward the ledge that Jenna had retreated to*
Seferia: *is still knocked out cold for the time being, so she is not moving*
Sephiroth: *just keeps his ears pinned back as she watches the two combatants continue to go at it. He yelps as he sees the sword sail towards him and springs up, darting aside, watching the sword fly by and clatter onto the ground beside him* Watch it… *He seems rather content with the fact that Seferia is still knocked out, then moves forward, leaning onto one of the support pillars that hold up the area, his attention returning to the fight. He concentrates his mental abilities, then attempts to use telekinesis to shove Clawina in the chest, wanting to knock her off balance and give Jenna an advantage*
Clawina: *yowls in annoyance as an invisible force shoves her off the ledge. However, like any true cat, she lands firmly on her feet. As she lands, she creates a loud thumping sound* Damn female. Too cowardly to even fight me with your own natural skills? *snorts* Stop playing tricks.
Jenna: *narrows her eyes as she notices what Sephiroth did. She snorts then glares in Sephiroth’s location* ~Stay out of this. I can defeat her without your assistance. Go busy yourself with the dragon if you want to do something!~ *leaps down onto the ground again and looks up at Clawina. She remains silent, though is clearly furious by Clawina’s remarks, as she moves into a ready position for hand-to-hand combat. She then lifts up her right hand and waves it toward herself in order to invite Clawina to do battle with her once more*
