[ Cloud's at least made some progress since he tried to nearly execute a certain red-headed blowhard back in the Sector 7 slums. Still, it was good to know Tifa was still Tifa — still willing to be that bleeding heart even as she makes the poor fool who tried to come down on her from above eat her boot. Ouch.]
[ Of course, Cloud doesn't slouch, either. As the two on the ground try to pounce on them, he brings the flat of his blade up, letting them bounce off it, before swinging it in a wide arc. Letting the weight of the blade carry him first forward toward his attacker, and then off the ground and back, as it slams into the punk trying to intercept Tifa. The force of the blow causing both to slam onto their backs and go skidding away, but, true to his word, Cloud's pulling his punches at least a little. Enough that so far the punks are going to walk away with bruises along with bruised egos. ]
[ As Tifa lands, Cloud figures it's about time to actually put some fear into these thoroughly thrashed kids, planting his sword in front of him and leaning forward as he watches them scramble up. ]
Last warning. Keep wasting our time, and it's going to end messy for you. Walking away now's the smartest move you'll make all day.
