Chapter 56 - Chapter 55: Midgar's Crisis

Alexandra looked behind her and was impressed that Bismarck was able to follow. With its size and all, she expected it to be slow.

"It really is one of his greatest creations, nobody can oppose us with that thing flying around like that." She chuckled and refocused at the direction of Midgar.

Alex felt there was a concentration of fire elements on the slums. And there were three people fighting it off surprisingly.

At the sector 5 slums, there were places here and there that were burning. But ice was quickly smothering it out. A beast who looks like a demon was rampaging and breathing out fire everywhere. (pic)

Gunfire was constant as Elmyra gave cover to Ifalna and Vincent. The latter firing his own shots, though more devastating than normal due to the Mako infused bullets. "Blizzaga!" Ifalna chained the beast down, but it wasn't receiving much damage.

"Tsk, this thing's skin is solid like a rock." Vincent thought of ways to wound it or incapacitate the thing. "Ifalna! Use your strongest blizzard spell and lock it down again! Elmyra, focus fire on its face!" Vincent saw its beady little eyes and wished that was its weakpoint.

Vincent went in and distracted the beast as it spewed fire and burned down everything on his way. Ifalna cast a spell once again and the surroundings went cold due to it. "Ifalna, you're gonna freeze me to death!" Elmyra complained, shivering from the cold.

Ifalna gave a chuckle and pointed her arms at the beast. "Blizzaja!" It froze completely for a few seconds, but its fiery body started melting the ice. "Give em hell!" Vincent started firing at its eyes and Elmyra followed suit.

The summon roared and was wounded quite heavily. It started rampaging and caused more damage to its surroundings that made the trio sour. "Shit, it's causing mayhem." Vincent thought about using his werewolf form to cause massive damage to it, but he was quite apprehensive.

Ifalna furrowed her brows and infused her body with Mako. "Take this!" She dropkicked the summon right on the face when she saw an opportunity and it flew right into a building. Shocking Elmyra and Vincent.

"Shouldn't you have started with beating it up or something? I think that was really effective." Elmyra deadpanned at her, their enemy stunned.

Vincent then saw massive metal beams and lifted it up. "Ifalna! Pin it down!" Vincent threw it at the brunette and she caught it in the air, her coordination and dynamic vision improving massively with Vincent's little training sessions.

Ifalna dropped the steel beam right at its chest and pinned it to the ground. Elmyra and Vincent began smoking it on the face and Ifalna casted ice spells on it so it couldn't escape, freezing its flames.

The demonic being suddenly stopped moving and concentrated its last bit of energy. "Look out! It's gonna self-destruct!" Ifalna warned everybody, feeling the massive amounts of destructive Mako.

"Blizzaja." They heard a cool voice and Ifrit froze over like a popsicle, the only difference is the ice had a particular azure sheen on it. Supercharged with Mako, making the demon freeze to its core.

"Hmph, not bad Ifalna. But you gotta train more." They saw a tall woman with silver hair stand in front of the ice statue that is starting to crumble. (pic)

"Alexandra! You're here!" Ifalna ran up to her and hugged her tightly, missing the other twin that she hasn't seen in years. "Ifalna, you're gonna mess up my hair." Alex pried her off of her, but she gave a rare smile at the woman.

Vincent stared at her and was feeling guilty once again. Thinking of what if's back in the past, regretting that he wasn't able to help them escape from Shinra's clutches.

Alexandra stared right back at him and he winced, seeing the glowing eyes behind her shades that made him feel like he was being judged. Unlike Ramiel's more playful and kind ones. "You, you're Vincent Valentine?"

The question made him froze and he nodded weakly. Ifalna gulped and Elmyra was getting nervous. "Hey, why is that girl so scary? I can feel my skin tingle whenever she speaks." Ifalna gave a wry smile and shrugged. "I don't know what to tell you, she's just like that." They then watched what kind of drama would unfold.

Alexandra walked up to him and looked at him from head to toe. "Thanks for saving Ifalna and Aerith, you have my gratitude for that." She patted him on the shoulder and Vincent went wide eyed, happy because of her praise.

But he suddenly felt his vision go hazy as Alexandra backhanded him on the face. Ifalna and Elmyra gasped, shocked. But they couldn't wait for what's next like gossiping housewives.

"That's for myself." She then helped him get steady on his feet. "Yeah, I deserved th." Before he could finish his sentence, Alexandra whacked him again on the other cheek this time. "And that's for my brother. You're a Turk, you should've known better. All this mess could've been avoided if you were smarter.

"Oooh." Elmyra and Ifalna both felt bad for Vincent and were a little excited by the events. "Sorry, you're right. I don't know why I confronted Hojo like that." Vincent apologized and thought that was real stupid of him.

"Don't be sorry, be better." Alex patted him on the back and Vincent looked at her with gratitude. But before he could revel in his successful first meeting with his daughter. A gigantic mecha fortress appeared. (pic)

"That's some bad news." Alex clicked her tongue. She called Ramiel immediately. "Nii-san, do you see that thing? It's Alexander, It's too hard for me to cut. I can only hold it off. You need to get here quick." She cut the call the three people there with her looked at her. Eager to help in any way.

"I don't think you can quite help me with this." She shot them down, Vincent was about to say that he hasn't used his special powers yet, but another rumble shook Midgar as a titan rose and caused earthquakes with its form. (pic)

"Shit! This is really bad." Alexandra's mind ran a mile a second, thinking of what to subjugate first. But Vincent patted her on the back and he pointed at the titan. "Leave that thing to us, we can hold it off." Alexandra was apprehensive, but Ifalna and Elmyra nodded at her.

"Fine, I'll trust you. Godspeed." She flew into the air and in just a second, they saw her clash with Alexander, shockwaves and sparks escaping from their collision. "Come on, Elmyra I want you to evacuate as many people as possible. Ifalna, cast as many spells at it as possible."

The trio went to their respective roles and Vincent transformed into his chaos form. "I better not mess this up." He smiled and was confident as ever, the thought of his daughter trusting in him gave him more courage to control the form.
