Cloud grabbed The floating shuriken from earlier when he used the stop spell on it as he passed by it while running for the forest. Cloud had to think quickly as the forest got closer he had a bad feeling the it would get harder to reach. Cloud heard the crack of the whip and before he could do anything about it it his wrapped around his neck and it pulled him back and he fell to the ground. time was closing in. Cloud quickly pulled out the 2 materia from his sword and dropped his sword to the ground. He placed one materia inside the shuriken hole and held onto the other one. He grabbed onto the whip with the hand the was holding the materia to save himself from choking to death yet.'hear goes nothing, either im free of the whip or its over. he thought to himself as he threw the shuriken in the direction the whip was coming from. He activated the magic Ultima right before it reached the handle and green shards shot out all over the place tearing up anything it touches. Cloud with the other materia in hand activated shell before the magic got to him but it wasnt enough to stop it all.
