[A barrage of other blows meet Sephroth's blade in a series of clangs, and if anything, it appears Cloud's blows are getting stronger over time. It would appear that way mostly because... well they are. As he's getting more and more enraged more power is in each strike, but both his lack of formal training and his anger forcing a lack of focus is telling. His blows are becoming more and more inaccurate, and his sword (and no doubt Sephiroth's, more than likely) is littered with nicks and chips along the edge by now.
He doesn't care for the fact he's using the weapon wrong. Nor the fact he's become blinkered. All that matters to him- all that still matters to him is hitting him hard enough to break his guard, break his parry, and to force his blade through him the moment he's unguarded.]
Shut up!
[A flare of wilder, deeper anger flares- mostly at Sephiroth's lack of comment on his alleged crimes. It's enough to have him twist the blade away from its current stalemate against the others, for him to twist his arm to have it directed toward the other- point forward- and to have him thrust at what he perceives to be an open area harshly- thoughtlessly- more or less following up as soon as the other takes that single step backward.

And Sephiroth has his second.]
