Beware the NOL… It couldn’t be possible that Galbadia’s own Intelligence branch might be instigating this event, it just couldn’t be though Ragyou and Edea also mentioned that Utemiecia was at work, regardless of what’s going on you knew that it was do or die time. No room for failure at any sort now.

"Fujin... Do you have any tips on Ifrit?" You asked as she saw the look on your face before shaking her head and sighing out.

"Ifrit's power is massive, and it doesn't help that you will be delving into Ifrit's own home turf, It's a given that fire magic will do nothing but further enhance his strength and power, and using water or ice based magic will aggravate Ifrit to no end. The only thing you can do is just fight it out the best way you can." She said as you nodded in reply.

It just couldn't be helped all you can do in this case was do your best, and pray to Hyne it's enough to impress Ifrit. But even still you were nervous and stress before a mission was bad, very very bad.

"I'm heading to the gym ladies...I won't be long." You said before heading down towards the workout complex, hoping it wasn't packed to capacity, yet on your way you saw Dr.Toki slumping against the wall and coughing violently.

>Dr Toki!?
>Run over to help him!!
>Doc??
>Write in

>>38732229
>Dr Toki!?
>Run over to help him!!

>>38732257
"Dr Toki?!" You yelled out before moving over to help him up a he fell onto his knees, you noticed blood running down his chin as a frown came over your face.

"Thank you Leonardo... It seems the wounds from the sorceress wars are slowly catching up to me now." He coughed out as you helped Dr.Toki towards the Infirmary where he slumped in his chair and started making some medical tea for himself.

>Doc... that sort of cough isn't natural
>...How long...
>Dr.Toki... I don't know how to say this but I'm nervous if not a little bit scared
>Write in

>>38732403
>Doc... that sort of cough isn't natural

>>38732429
"Doc, that sort of cough isn't natural...How long?" You asked surmising the worst case scenario as Dr.Toki drank his tea though he did take note of the look on your face as well as mentally sighing at your perception.

"I don't know Leo...it could be tomorrow, it could be a year from now but in the end Death will come for us all be we healthy or sick, you of all people should know that lesson all too well no?" Toki asked

"You bring up a fair point Doctor but regardless I need some advice tomorrow I'm going to the Fire Cavern." You said as Toki raised up a hand

"For everyone who will take on the burden of leadership, there is a moment in their life where they see the path they must walk. They can run away from the path, or step forward, despite what they maybe feeling, fear, nervousness, worry... the list goes on Leo."

"I get what your saying Doc... and thank you..." You said before preforming the traditional gingalan bow of gratitude. Even if Dr.Toki had said everything he wanted to hear, there was a key difference between knowing and walking the path.

Dr. Toki however simply smiled as he watched you leave before shaking his head. "Good Luck Leo..."

>Balamb Garden Gym Time: 6:20 Pm

The gym was somewhat packed but you were busy wailing on a Heavy bag, as well as throwing in some kicks you learned from Kimberly who was a bit your Martial Arts instructor in a way.

On my Phone. So I can squeeze out one post.

Your eyes glew a Hazy Grey as you lobbed a greyish lion's head shaped blast of Ki towards the Heavy Bag which roared loudly. Smoke came off your fists as the heavy bag barley stood.

Soon you were on your way towards Rinko's Place as she was busy working on some last minute tune ups for some weapons.

"Hey Rinko, I'm sooo sorry but I need an emergency Class-S Rush job It seems I can pull off some crazy martial arts shit and I need some weapons to best utilize my new skills, but I don't want to compromise my Axe Wielding skills." You said as Rinko chuckled

It was starting to get dark, but you needed food, something light and easy to digest, but before making your way towards the cafeteria you went to the Garden Promenade In which there was a massive listing of Students who Made the Pre-req, who didn't and who's turn was upcoming.

You knew that Seifer was Exempt from this portion, earning him a automatic spot on the Exam.

"While you were suiting up in your armor and combat uniform the newscast's were talking about the situation in Timber, The White Fang were being Supressed with the heavy bombing runs Galbadia were doing.

Soon you were heading out and towards the Garden Promenade where Quistis was waiting for you in her SeeD instructor Uniform.

"Morning Leonardo, You're early."

"Understood, Are there secondary objectives to this mission as well as a time limit?" You asked as Quistis shook her head.

"This is a test of how you can handle yourself in battle much less against something as strong as a Guardian Force like Ifrit however you have up to 40 minutes to defeat Ifrit."

The drive was short, You were calm and composed, the expectations of going into a simple cave to fight a guardian force was thrown out the window as you saw the large volcano Quistis driving up towards.

"Djinn Volcano Ridge... the home of Ifrit." Quistis said as she saw you adjusting your gauntlets which blended with your SeeD Commando Trainee Armor.

"Are you supplied Instructor?" You asked as Quistis simply snorted in laughter.

"Never ask a woman what's in her purse Leo but yes I am supplied with adequate healing items for the both of us."

"Then Let's get going." You replied as you walked inside the hallway leading into the Fire-Cavern Complex there were 3 Seed Staff members there as you showed your Student Id.

The both of you walked inside the interior of the semi-dormant volcano and then you felt...it, Ifrit's power first hand, the rumors you heard didn't do it justice.

"Who Dares to step into my domain!" A loud voice echoed from all around

Announcing your name to the enemy was suicide but Ifrit's pressure... you had to respond, you composed yourself and then stepped forward.

"I am Leonardo Titus!" You yelled out before laughter rang about.

"LEONARDO TITUS... Amusing! You show spirit and I sense the aura of Diablos...Amuse me further Leonardo... Make your way to my chosen battleground!" Ifrit yelled out as 3 gates appeared

>Left, Center or Right?

>>38739460
Center

>>38739460
>center

>>38739480
>>38739499

Three ways, you didn't know which way the gates went but you had to go with your gut. "Quistis, we're going through the center gate. Prepare any Ice and or Water magic you have for immediate counter attack." You said in a calm but very firm tone of voice as you stepped through the gate.

It seemed the path that would lead to Ifrit was a single line or so you thought as Quistis followed you through another Center portal, this time the both of you landed in large crater of some sort as a being of pure flame emerged

The Fire elemental leered at the both of you as it's arms exploded into flames, your hand hung over the shaft of your axe as you gave Quistis a look.

"simultaneous attack on my mark, Use Ice magic to enhance my own water magic, hopefully it should freeze this hot head.' You said as quistis's whip unfured as it took on a bright bluish white sheen, your axe began to glow a dull deep blue in contrast.

There was only one door left you could feel the air growing hotter and more compressed.

"This is a bit too easy.' You said to Quistis before walking towards Ifrit's chamber not saying a single word only to get blasted back by a blast of heat.

And then you saw it... Ifrit emerging from the lava, but he was bigger than what Fujin said.

Lion's Will adds 5 to your overall Result but with your Roll. I don't think that's going to be needed.

Diablos and your own Right hand Connected with Ifrit's Left Straight as fire and gravity magic swirled around but you weren't done by a long shot as your left fist shot upwards in a powerful "smash" type uppercut causing Ifrit's head to be knocked upwards.

A low growl formed in your mouth as now you and Diablos assumed an fighting stance and then just like in the comics you read as a child one word came from your mouth.

"ORA!" You screamed as Diablos Star fully manifested mimicking your movements granted they were just punching the living hell out of Ifrit, to buy Quistis time as her body glew a darker shade of blue but you weren't done, Your axe left it's sheath once more as now you were slashing at Ifrit, While Diablos wailed on the Guardian force

Ifrit's eyes glew brighter as more fire formed around his body as a massive right hook was thrown towards your face which you barely parried but you weren't out by a long shot as Diablos lashed out with a shoulder check to knock Ifrit back as you slashed upwards with your Axe.

Your body then felt weird as you faded from view as Quistis finished charging enough Paramagic to bring in Leviathan into this dimension, water emerged from a massive Rift as Leviathan emerged only to screech at Ifrit as it called a Massive Tidal wave of magic infused.

>D20+8 For How Damaging Leviathan's Summon is
>Also give me a Raw D-12 For Boosting!

"THEY HAVE LEVIATHAN?!" Ifrit yelled out in shock before realizing the boldness of your plan just before Yelling out in Pain as the waters flooded the entire chamber causing the magma on it's body to harden into pure obsidian like stone

>>38741449

>>38741374
>>38741385
>>38741449
Why not Both indeed and you guys won't need a Roll for this.

As the waters faded away Ifrit stood up to see you appearing out of nowhere attacking with both your martial arts and Axe Skill's and even in such a weakened state Ifrit fought back as if responding to your own Desires to succeed.

With a Loud Yell the phantom apparition of a roaring Lion formed behind you as you punched your arm through Ifrit's chest and released a Point Blank Ki blast to knock the Guardian force back towards the stone wall though when you landed You saw Ifrit falling on his knees.

>Leo Learned Limit Break: Lion's Spirit Canon!

"...I see, You ensured that my attention was focused on you so that I wouldn't lash out towards Your Assistant... A simple plan but effective but answer this question Leonardo Titus, what would you do If you failed in this endeavor?" Ifrit asked

>Ensured that Quistis would be in a position of safety as well as providing a vantage point for a counter attack

>Even if I failed, I would have still fought you with every part of my being Ifrit

>If a Leader Fails, then the mission is lost, but if you don't care for the lives of those under your command, if not willing to put your own life on the line you are not worthy of the responsibility's that leadership entails

If you noticed my plain I would have ensured that Quistis would be in a position of safety as well as providing her a vantage point for a counter attack Ifrit but besides that I'm the type of person that will never give up even when I fail."

And then you heard Ifrit's laughter once more as his body exploded into flame once more before a small ruby red gem formed in front of you but that wasn't all some of the obsidian that formed around his body was placed next to your feet.

"Take it and go forth Leonardo Titus! You have earned my strength in battle!"

Your hand lashed out to grab the floating gem before letting out a loud roar. You have done it Though a bright flash of light filled the chamber as somehow you were in Balamb Garden once more, perhaps it was an inbuilt teleportation gimmick or Ifrit's own workings Who knows?

Selphie, Fujin and Tsubaki were worried they were going to head downstairs until you opened the door holding up Ifrit's GF-Stone in your hand.

"Yo." You simply said as their eyes went wide and then you were tacklehugged by all 3.

'You did it leo!" Selphie yelled out but then you turned to see Gamagori and Nonon limping towards you, injured and bleeding Gamagori had something attached to him.

It was a picture of Satsuki and Ryuko in rainbow colored bindings as well as a note in Ragyou's handwriting

>Come to my tower 3 days from now Leo...It is time

Your joy turned into fury as your eyes narrowed.

"RRRAAAAAGGGYYYYYOOOOOOOUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
You screamed out in outright anger
>Thread End.
