The Emerald weapon travelled to another settlement and was ready to unleash its mighty armaments on it. On the outskirts, the weapon loomed. The worldwide network already informed the whole world that the weapons are on the loose. Evacuations were ongoing, but not every single one of the cities have underground bunkers like Wutai.
People immediately panicked when they saw the large biometallic weapon of destruction. "It's here! One of them is here! We're all gonna die!" A person shouted and complete panic started.
The Emerald giant went closer and closer. Its cold and unfeeling beady eyes locked onto the city. Ready to turn it into rubble, crushing everything in its wake.
Its shoulder pads began starting to charge and it lit up into a bright red. "W-we're doomed." One of the guards in the city that was facilitating the evacuation kneeled down and was sure they were finished.
The lasers on its shoulders fired and a red beam of death lit up the surroundings, accompanied by a violent vibration on the air. But before it hit, something pierced one of the lasers and the other was blocked by magic shield.
Reflected beams sliced up the surroundings as explosions tore the ground asunder. A glaive then hit one of the shoulders of the weapon and it promptly stopped firing the laser from its shoulder. It looked at what hit it and a polearm was stuck on it.
Tifa cracked her knuckles and looked behind her. "Continue your evacuations. This place is going to be a battlefield, but I'll try to lure it away as far as possible from here." She smacked her fist into her palm and glared at the Emerald weapon.
"You ruined my best day ever, you won't be getting out of here without being dismantled into pieces!" She suddenly disappeared and appeared right in front of the floating weapon. Her eyes had an eerie glow on them, the veins on her arm bulged and Balrog blazed with fire.
Tifa delivered a straight right onto its chest and their contact point exploded violently. The shockwave shattering all the windows in the city. The citizens were thankfully protected by a barrier as they evacuated.
The Emerald weapon flew for a few hundred meters before it righted itself on the air. Tifa willed her weapon to come back to her and when it reached her hand, lightning formed on it and a deafening thunderclap resounded on the battlefield.
She started a small jog that quickly turned into a sprint. Posturing for a javelin throw, she threw it with all her might, making her float from the strength she put into the throw. A blue line followed the trajectory of her glaive and it hit the Emerald weapon with a resounding explosion.
Plasma and lightning lit up the surroundings like a beacon. The ground got glassed and lightning fell from the skies. Pinpointing the terrible weapon like she gave it divine judgement.
The civilians froze from the distance and watched the battle from the city. Never have they witnessed in their mundane lives an awe inspiring fight in person. The ground shook at every attack, strong winds and shockwaves toppling buildings that were far away from the epicenter.
"Did a goddess descend from heaven and protected us?" The guard that Tifa ordered earlier had dazed eyes as he saw their cataclysmic battle that hasn't even truly begun.
Tifa stood tall and calmed herself down, she would need to ration her resources. "Relax, Tifa. I'll destroy that piece of crap after I learn everything it can throw at me. If it regenerates, I will lose a battle of attrition." She breathed in and out, waiting to see its status after the dust has settled.
After a few seconds, it whirred in the dust cloud and its form was damaged heavily on the chest and the shoulder pads have bits of them missing. But Tifa nodded at her decision earlier as she saw that its body was slowly reforming. A lattice of magic and physical barriers then appeared on it as it flew once again.
"Tough bastard, so I have to beat you down to a pulp huh?" Tifa took back her glaive and started jumping on the ground lightly. The weapon released the floating hands to the sky, they gathered Mako for a spell and she started walking sideways, squinting her eyes at it.
It started firing some bursts of energy from its front shoulders like high caliber bullets and Tifa calmly dodged them, disappearing with immense speed after every shot it fires. The auxiliary hands in the sky then started bombarding her location.
Just like how it completely destroyed Costa del Sol. It acted similar to orbital particle cannons and the outskirts of the city was carpet bombed by energy blasts. Massive explosions created earthquakes and the evacuating civilians panicked once more.
The giant weapon began searching for signs of Tifa, but it couldn't sense anything. Tifa used the cover of the explosions and smoke, appearing right behind it. Balrog emitting fire that could melt the ground.
She released an onslaught on the barrier on it and every punch of hers were like bombs. With her focus and immense control, she also quick casted thundagas after every blow. The shield of the weapon quickly gave in. But it acted at once and a pulse of Mako blew her away, not having enough time to evade.
Tifa's eyes widened as she felt the pressure all over her body, her bones creaked and her muscles got torn. The air in her lungs escaped and she spitted out blood from the damage. She corrected herself and used her legs as anchors on the ground.
"Tch, what an annoying and strong bastard." She spitted on the ground and used a cure on herself. 'It seems that its attacks are really strong, that did quite some damage to me.' Tifa didn't expect its earlier attack and got more cautious.
She fortified her muscles with more Mako and a film of it encompassed her skin. The weapon was creating its barrier back, but she went in with more speed as she leaped. The earth shattered from the immense force she created and her glaive was glowing with magic.
Appearing above its head, she spun and delivered an axe kick right at its crown. Its massive body crashed on to the ground and fractured the earth from its weight and force. She raised her glaive as lightning hit it like a rod. Balrog's concentrated fire Materias then fed it with more energy.
She winced from the overwhelming heat of the weapon. Her arm getting burned as lightning electrocuted her from the intensity of the spells imbued into it. "Eat this you bastard!" Tifa roared and threw her glaive down like a bolt of lightning.
It struck through and a bright light almost blinded her through her eyelids. A massive fireball exploded, akin to a nuclear blast. She crossed her arms and created a shield with her all at that split second moment. She flew away like a pebble that was carried by a tornado and she saw the destruction her attack caused.
Lightning still crackled in the surroundings as the ground melted, it was like a volcano has exploded and lava was all over the place. A mushroom cloud appeared, carrying all the dust and earth that got carried by the shockwave.
"Hah, that should've done it in. Right?" She started panting, the attack took quite a lot from her and she stared right at the epicenter of the blast, not knowing that she wasn't supposed to raise flags.
The Emerald weapon was in tatters, but it started having a golden glow. Sucking in the local lifestream to power itself up. As it has the means to do so, being created by the planet and all.
It quickly regenerated and its hands orbited around it. They started to grasp a yellow gold blade and it screeched. The hands waved around like they had minds of their own and slashed its weapons all around it, looking like it had an impenetrable barrier right in its vicinity due to the blades acting independently. (pic)
"Fuck." Tifa cursed as she thought of asking for some support from Shinano. She casted a cure on herself and healed her burned arm. She just stood there and calmed herself, doing breathing exercises as she maximized her focus.
She rationed her remaining magic and thought that she will be having a difficult battle. "I can only rely on my weapons and body, I can't use magic or I'll be out of it in just a few minutes." She stared at Balrog and was thankful that the gauntlets and greaves had their own power source, having some fluffy thoughts about the one who gifted it to her.
The Emerald weapon began to advance towards her and its shoulders fired a barrage of energy bullets at her. Tifa furrowed her brows and concentrated to the max, her eyes glowing as she saw the hail of bullets on her way. "There's a pattern! Ramiel said there is always a pattern!"
Like a veteran Tohou player, she dodged and weaved through the bullet hell with as little movement as possible. Dodging them in just a hair's breadth, she concentrated to the maximum and preserved her strength as much as she could.
The hands of the Emerald weapon flew to the air and pointed the blades right at her. She took in a deep breath and the arms tried skewering her at all directions. Tifa grasped her glaive tightly, she dodged the first few of them without problems, but the terrain quickly got narrower with the stuck blades on the ground.
She parried the others and felt her arms go numb from the force of the blows. She then waited patiently to see an opening, studying the patterns and flow of the battle.
With sweat forming on her brows and body, she saw an opening after dodging and parrying for a minute. "It's time!" All the energy she stored from weaving through the attacks exploded and she arrived right in front of it.
Tifa stabbed the gap on its shoulder and with difficulty, sliced one of the shoulders off from its body. But due to it taking more time, the weapon stared right at her and blasted her with a laser right from its eye.
She crashed to the ground and had burns all over her body. With a groan, she cured herself and backed off. Though she noticed that the sliced off shoulder of it didn't regenerate.
Tifa thought of dismantling it in one fell swoop, brandishing her glaive and preparing to block or parry the blades of it. Before she could, a timely retinue of support arrived at her location.
A few gunships fired off its cannons as she saw the armed hands fall to the ground from the high caliber rounds. The Emerald weapon concentrated for a bit on the gunships and prepared to fire lasers in order to remove the pests.
Tifa didn't lose a second and threw her glaive right at its head. She then followed suit and kicked the stuck glaive downwards, slicing it open in half from the top to bottom.
It tried piecing itself together, but she began punching and kicking it down with Balrog's explosions. Taking off more and more pieces off of it. "Die! Come on! Come on!"
A shlick then resounded as Tifa coughed up blood. A miniature blade of energy that the weapon was able to conjure from its crisis stabbed her right from the back. More appeared all over her and turned her into a porcupine from her shock.
Her vision and body trembled as she looked at the blades that stabbed right through her at multiple places. She kneeled down and coughed up blood once again, feeling weaker by the second.
Breathing heavily, she glared at the emerald weapon that was running on fumes as well. "Fuck you, I'm gonna destroy you!" Tifa stood up and lunged at the mostly destroyed construct.
With a burst of adrenaline, she began her blows once again. Ignoring the damage and pain as she bled like faucet.
The body of the Emerald weapon shattered to bits and its head was the only one left that was still animated, its eye glowing with a flickering light. She kneeled down once again and felt the toll of her injuries.
"Not yet!" She gritted her teeth and began limping towards the head. With her metal clad hands, she squeezed her fingers through its metal head and ripped it in half. She then dropped down on the ground, her breathing starting to get shallow.
"Ramiel-nii, I'm out of magic... Thank you for everything, could you say that I was useful until the end?" She gave a soft smile and was starting to lose consciousness.
But before she could close her eyes, one of the meowfficers quickly went to her and took off her necklace. They activated the Materia in it and the curaga stored inside quickly closed her wounds. Though she will be out of the fights in the future.
"Nyan nya." *Load her up in a stretcher and deliver her back to HQ, she's completely drained.* The meowfficers saluted and they began to transport her to Midgar.

At another part of the world, the draconic Ultimate weapon circled over a city and was about to wreak havoc. It charged its maws for a breath attack that will devastate the town. But it saw black feathers fall near its face and in the next moment, something struck its face. Making it fall down like a meteor.
"Hmph, this is the strongest one amongst them right? What a shame, I thought it would pack a bit more punch." Alexandra floated in the air as her lone black wing flapped. Black feathers dropping into the city as they stared right into her form.
A concentrated beam then got fired at her from the dust cloud that the dragon raised from its impact. But she just looked at it coldly and raised her hand. The laser reflected and it died down, showing that she did not even receive a scratch.
"You guys piss me off, I was having some brunch that my brother prepared specially for me!" The air trembled as her rage went through the roof.
The dragon flew right at her and was going to strike her down with its arms, but she kicked it right in front of its chest with all the power and enhancements she could. The chest of the dragon exploded and a massive hole appeared on it.
"I... Will tear you apart!" She followed through to the falling dragon and grasped on its arm, she put her foot on its body and began pulling. The dragon screeched at her as she tore its arm away.
It began charging for a breath attack once again, but she slugged it right on the face with its own arm with a roar. She disappeared and went to its tail, Alex spun and threw it right at the ground.
The city was in a panic as an earthquake shook once again. "He made that for me! With his own hands! Filled with his care! And you come and FUCKING RUIN IT!" She crashed right on it and held its head. She flew dragging its face on the ground, plowing it on the earth for a mile before lifting it and smashing it repeatedly.
The city heard and felt her rage fueled shouts and earthquake inducing blows, cowering in their homes. Thinking that an angel of God came to destroy and annihilate.

At Midgar, Ramiel sighed as he almost had a heart attack upon seeing Tifa's condition. "She could've just left the remnants of it to the gunships." He sighed and thought she still has quite a reckless streak.
"Ramiel, there's been sightings of enemies outside of Midgar. And it isn't pretty." Scarlet reported to him, she then displayed the hundreds of thousands of monsters outside Midgar.
He squinted his eyes and took his halberd. "They really think that is what it takes to bring us down? Then they're quite delusional." Ramiel went outside and stood at the outskirts, facing down the horde of enemies. Probably even reaching a million or two.
A concentration of Mako then started to converge, an upright dragon began forming as the armies outside pooled their energy to summon it. The dragon roared and its voice was heard all over Midgar.
Ramiel just stared at it and had no reaction, but he frowned when he felt massive amounts of energy converge. A massive cocoon that was burning appeared in the sky and large wings tore through the cocoon.
A roar even stronger than Bahamut resounded and the shields of Midgar vibrated from its magical signature. The skies looked like they were burning and the cocoon shattered. A massive dragon appeared and the pieces of the cocoon turned into a blaze, like meteors. It began dropping down to the lands of Midgar. (gif)
The forests that Ifalna and Aerith created burned down and earthquakes shook the city. The two dragons looked right at Ramiel and they squinted their eyes at him, sensing that he was the largest threat in the vicinity.
Ramiel brandished his halberd and took out two red Materias. The ground trembled as a giant made of earth appeared. The titan roared and glared at the enemies.
Alexander started to form and a fortress the size of Midgar hovered right in front of it. Its engines and large body began whirring.
"HOJO! Wherever the fuck you are. You think you can bring Midgar down? Let me show you the absolute peak of the Jenova project! You'll regret creating me!" Ramiel flew to the ends of the skies as he created shockwaves.
He clapped and earth began to converge, thousands of enemies that lacked a certain weight got sucked in. A massive sphere of earth floated in the sky. After creating a massive sphere almost the size of Midgar, he cut off the gravity that kept it afloat.
The sphere started falling down, friction under it began heating it up as it travelled faster than sound. He doubled down with wind and increased the gravity to the area as much as he could. Making the self made meteor travel a few kilometers per second.
He made it even faster by pushing it from behind. "Shattered heaven!" The meteor hit the ground as Alexander just finished making the city float and cover it with thick shields.
The impact made the earth's crust ripple, tectonic plates got disturbed and earthquakes all over the world was felt. Volcanoes erupted and Gaia will witness a war that it has never seen before.
