Cloud raises Buster over his shoulder in response, bringing it to position in front of him. It points towards Sephiroth as he braces both legs in a motion that may as well be second nature.
He is so eager for action that Cloud is able to, at the very least, push back how haunting it is to see a young, mini facsimile of his greatest foe moving just like him. They've already made it clear this is a friendly bout. He's just a kid. A dangerous living weapon of a kid.
He remains poised for a few more beats, mako eyes seeking the best angle of approach- but Cloud has always been a somewhat impulsive man of action, his true talent in combat being improvising on the fly. So with a final appraisal, he makes the first move. It's simple enough, one to test the waters-a direct lunge forward, with intent to sweep under Sephiroth's feet.
