Rivalry

[Jade]

" Iros and thats your problem!" she frowned looking away from him glancing over at Josh... " I cant let him die..."

[Reno]

"I hope he does." He scowled, standing. "Do whatever the fuck you want." He was shaking again, his eyes coloring once more. He turned on his heels stalking away from her.

[Jade]

" I dont have any magic you know that! Please help him! Iros!" she ran after him grabbing onto his arm " I know you hate him but please..."

[Reno]

He scowled, shutting his eyes tightly. He was sick of being nice. he was sick of being second. he was so tired of doing this but...

Tifa's pleading heart made his heart break. With a sob he turning around and kneeled next to Josh lifting his hands.

i... fuck... why me? His eyes glowed orange again as he worked on repairing the damage he had caused.

[Jade]

" Thank you..." she knelt down next to him then leaned up kissing his cheek "thank you for everything..."

[Reno]

Sephiros choked down another sob. i love you god damn it why don;t you understand that?!

Once Josh was breathing on his own again Sephiros hugged himself, shaking violently. "Tifa... i never want to see you again, not even as a friend."

Those were his parting words as he suddenly disappeared from sight.

[Jade]

You could kill him... when hes away from her a voice whispered in his head She could easily fall back on you from that...

[Reno]

wha... who?

[Jade]

Kill Josh, I guarantee you he wont be with her always, he has to leave her sight eventually... do it... You and her are soul mates... thats why you are so drawn to one another even though she is with him. Look at it... no matter how many times she tried she has always found herself back in your arms, and in your bed where she belongs...

[Reno]

Sephiros slowly smirked. yeah... yeah your right... that was it, kill Josh and then go in, all concerned for Tifa and she'd be back with him. Simple.

[Jade]

Yes... its so obvious that you where created for one another, look at all the signs... soul mates are drawn to one another no matter what. She may love him... but your souls where binded together long before he was ever born...

[Reno]

Sephiros smiled at that and nodded eagerly.

________________

He'd been lying in wait. days years it didn;t matter he;d been waiting for the perfect chance...

[Jade]

Josh sighed staring downwards... he was alone training trying to regain his power. Somehow it had to be done... he had left Dagmir knowing that she was lying to him. It was Deathsiege inside of her... and he knew it... but for some reason he couldnt bring himself to tell anyone. It was almost as if he wanted it to be born... maybe... just maybe after it was born he could defeat it in its infant state. Once and for all... that thing would never be able to come back ever again! Then... and only then could he finally resume his life with his family, Tifa was everything to him. He now realized that more than ever, and nothing would ever take her away.
The love he had for her... was eternal...

[Reno]

and now was his time to strike.

Her had been waiting, just staring and waiting for hours. sleeping little and eating nothing. he staied away from his daughters' concerns, ignoring them. He'd become an anorexic and an insomiac all at once, just for revenge, death, blood.

That voice contuined to encourage him, giving him strength, but the lack of food and water and nutrients and sleep had done its work. he was weakened, but he would still kill him. he still had it, his trump card.

"Josh." Sephiros hissed, walking up behind the fool who dared mess with his soulmate.

[Jade]

Josh slowly turned around glancing straight towards him " You..." he growled gripping his fist " what in the hell do you want? If its about Tifa you better back the fuck off, you will interfere with our love no more!"
