Sephiroth: Tell me, what do you believe your chances are of defeating me?

Kat: Bigger than you think.

Sephiroth: Really? Because as I recall, our last encounter left you almost bleeding to death.

Kat: A lot can change in a short amount of time.

Sephiroth: Indeed. I hope at least you can give me a good fight. Don't dissppoint me this time.

(He readies the Masamune.)

Kat: Don't worry. I won't.

(They begin their fight.) (During her fight, Kat settles into a strategy of swiftly dodging Sephiroth's sword strikes, using these as an opportunity to shoot ice or slash her swords at him: both of these Sephiroth dodges without much effort.)

Sephiroth: Alright, so you have improved a little. But if you believe you can hold your own fully, you have another thing coming.

(He forms several different copies of himself, and they all charge after Kat, who tries to attack one only for her swords to phase right through.)

Kat: Ugh. Wonderful. Too bad I can do this.

(She sends out an ice shockwave, which goes through the entire garden, freezing the plants and damaging the clones.)

Kat: Much better.

(She then continues to fight the rest of the clones.) (Kat breathes heavily as Sephiroth looks at her.)

Sephiroth: Your ability to control ice is astounding. However, I know how to do it too.

(He fires an ice blast at Kat, who dodges.)

Kat: Blizzaga, that's right. Crap.

Sephiroth: But why stick to ice when I can use something else? Something that can crush ice?

(He then shoots what seems to be a flamethrower out of his hands at Kat, who dodges.)

Sephiroth: Fire. Opposite and superior to ice in every way. (Kat continues to dodge Sephiroth's fire attacks.)

Sephiroth: Just as I thought. All you can do is dodge. You can't keep this up forever, you know.

(At that moment, he then zooms right in front of her and hits her square with a fire attack, destroying her swords once again.)

Sephiroth: Once again, no match.

(He throws her against the wall. She stands up, bleeding in several places.)

Sephiroth: I know just the way to end this.

(He gets ready to launch a powerful attack, likely the Supernova. Kat closes her eyes.)

Sub-Zero: (in Kat's head) Do not lose your head. Now is the time to unlock your true power.

Kat: Sub-Zero...Sephiroth's too strong...I can't

Sub-Zero: Do not lose yourself to fear. He is powerful, but you are stronger than me, stronger than him, in every way. Kat: Well where is this power, huh? Face it, Sephiroth's about to kill me because I'm not strong enough for this!

Sub-Zero: Do not say that! The mastermind never would have dragged you into this mess if he did not believe you were worthy to help fight him. It is time to stop running from your power. You must confront every obstacle in your path. Embrace your path. And show all who stand against you the true power that is ice!

(Outside the castle, a blizzard starts raging without warning. In the garden, reality starts to shatter to reveal an exploding sun-Supernova.)

Sephiroth: Time to understand what happens when you cross me, TheMasterKat. Witness oblivion!

(Kat's eyes open, the irises having changed from their normal brown to icy cobalt blue. She morphs into her ice golem avatar, Absolute Zero, which then takes the full force of the exploding sun. Kat struggles to stand against that power, even in her avatar.)

Sephiroth: You can't withstand forever!

Kat: I don't have to!

(Absolute Zero walks slowly towards Sephiroth, giant sword ready. The avatar then attacks Sephiroth with its sword, staggering him and bringing the garden back to reality.)

Sephiroth: What?

(Absolute Zero then vanishes, leaving Kat slightly burned in a number of places and even steaming quite a lot, but alive. She smirks.)

Kat: Trust me, I'm surprised too. Sephiroth: Very well.

(He charges at Kat with the Masamune, but Kat dodges and kicks the sword out of Sephiroth's hands.)

Sephiroth: Impossible!

(He shoots a flamethrower-like attack at Kat, but she shoots an ice beam that collides with it. The fire and ice struggle for several moments until the ice starts pushing the fire back. Kat walks forward, her ice beginning to freeze Sephiroth's legs and immobilize him. She then rushes and kicks his hands again, stopping the fire. She frezes Sephiroth's hands together.)

Kat: So, have any idea how this is gonna end? Because I have a pretty good idea.

Sephiroth: How... How is this possible? You're just an ice witch. Ice is fragile! Weak!

Kat: Sephiroth, there is one crucial thing you don't realize about ice.

(In one quick motion, she grabs Sephiroth by the neck and looks him straight in the eye.)

Kat: Ice is only as fragile as the one who wields it.

(And with another quick motion, she rips off Sephiroth's head, dragging the spine with it Sub-Zero style.)

Kat: (muttering to herself) Fatality.

(She realizes she's still holding the head.)

Kat: Ew.

(She tosses the head aside. It dissolves into code along with the rest of Sephiroth. She sinks to her knees, exhausted, bleeding and burned in several spots, but happy. Her eyes are back to normal. After a few minutes, she stands up and leaves the garden to find the others.)
