Note
by Rufus Safer: This story picks 1 week after the end of FF7-Pokemon. Though I
am playing Rufus as usual, Jack Diamond, who got the idea for this sequel, is
playing Reno.
Rufus Shinra issues a scream
before his thoughts snap back to place cause all there is in his world is
darkness and pain. Flexes his wings, the Mako having destroyed his human form, leaving
him as full Pokémon in its repair.
Reno antenna begins
to absorb the Mako and his body begins to convulse as his consciousness
returns, unable to feel anything but the hell he had been in before at first as
he continue to glow, his form shifting and enlarging.
Rufus
Shinra lets
out a loud roar as he bursts forth from the Mako that had surrounded his formerly
dead body.
Reno fur turn pure
black as the razors and his claws merge, the other metallic parts of his body
doing similar things as his eyes return from there decay though they are now a metallic
Silver.
Rufus
Shinra roars,
lifting above the Mako with his huge red wings pumping.
Reno lets out a
deafening roar as his evolution hit it's peek and his bodies elemental balance
shifts to the shadows, keeping him in an almost hell-like state.
Rufus
Shinra burns
like fire, though it hurts his body not, just melting the ice around.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[I'm... ALIVE!!]"
Reno eyes snap open,
as he makes not a sound.
Rufus
Shinra lets
out a defining screech as he flies around.
Reno looks and as
he stands, his eyes seeing through the Mako perfectly.
Rufus
Shinra looks
down and notes Reno still trapped down in the Mako still and breaths fire at
the area.
Reno slowly pads out;
his new form able to walk through any ice in the way with little problem.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[Reno...]"
Reno narrows his
eyes at Rufus.
Reno says,
"[Rufus...]"
Rufus
Shinra flies
down and lands next to him on the ice, fire dimming to keep from melting it
all.
Reno gazes
emotionlessly at Rufus.
Rufus
Shinra chuckles
with laughter, spreading his wings wide, looking at Reno.
Reno seems
unimpressed by Rufus.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[heh heh... and you are as well...]"
Reno says,
"[yes, it would seem so...]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[you look different.]"
Reno says,
"[as do you...]"
Rufus
Shinra looks
at himself to monitor changes.
Reno says,
"[hmm... red wings and scales, white underbelly and flames, more dragon
like with a longer neck... I do believe you are a...]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[dragon.... hmmm... Mako has changed us both... brought us back from
the dead...]"
Reno says,
"[brought you back from the dead you mean, I wasn't really dead… thanks to
you and Hojo...]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[you were a while though. Now, what am I?]"
Reno says,
"[...a Solterran?]"
Rufus
Shinra cocks
his head, causing a wave in his neck.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[interesting...]"
Reno says,
"[but I thought only select Cetra were Solterrans?]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[I never knew my mom....]"
Reno says,
"[*sighs* could you tell me what I look like?]"
Reno can feel he's different
now.
Rufus
Shinra cocks
his head and moves his neck around so that his eyes sweep Reno.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[black... silver... the metal looks to have fused into your flesh
making it one. Larger then you were...]"
Reno says, "[still
cat?]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[yes. Still at Cat.]"
Reno says,
"[hmm, most likely a Pantheros...]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[yes....]"
Reno sighs and looks
around.
Reno says,
"[nice place, dark, bit foreboding...]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[I came here to evolve... and I have... even if it cost me life for a
time... and Tifa's life. She didn't revive, did she?]"
Reno says,
"[no, she was neither in Pokemon form or a Cetra, which you most like
are.]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[I've always been strongly Pokémon... dad said I had a Mako infusion
right after I was born.]"
Reno says,
"[perhaps to cover for your Cetra powers...]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[perhaps.... so he never had to tell me who my mom was.]"
Reno says,
"[it would explain why your stronger in Pokémon form than most...]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[I was defeated that time for I was already hurt... and Tifa... Tifa
used me!!!]"
Reno says,
"[you just realized that?]"
Rufus
Shinra roars
loud enough to cause an avalanche around them... but shoots up his body flame
to melt it before it hits them.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[may she rot in hell...]"
Reno says,
"[you might change your mind if you knew what it was like...]"
Reno sighs.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[what's it like?]"
Reno says,
"[indescribable pain and torment, enough to make your father seem like a
saint...]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[she deserves it after what she did....]"
Reno says,
"[perhaps, it doesn't matter to me anymore...]"
Rufus
Shinra flaps
his large red wings and lifts up.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[now, to figure out what to do next. I have no human for any more.]"
Reno stays unmoved
by the displacement of air.
Rufus
Shinra looks
down at Reno as he flaps in the air.
Reno says,
"[first things first, we'll do no good standing here...]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[you're standing, I'm flying.]"
Reno looks up in an
annoyed fashion at Rufus.
Reno says,
"[funny, you know what I'm talking about...}"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[which is?]"
Reno says,
"[we need to get moving, and we need to keep hidden as much as
possible.]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[why?]"
Reno says,
"[we won't be able to survive here, there is nothing.]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[Let us find a place.... and what do we eat?]"
Reno says,
"[me, I think I'll go to a nice forest somewhere, you can come if you wish
and I think we eat what we normally eat.]"
Rufus
Shinra grins.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[I crave... flesh... creatures that I can devour that are large.]"
Reno raises an
eyebrow at that.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[things like... people...]"
Rufus
Shinra lets
out a roar that sounds more like one of pleasure.
Reno says,
"[they'll start hunting you down as soon as they realize.]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[realize what? It is time for me to rule over them...]"
Reno sighs.
Reno says,
"[do what you wish, I don't care anymore...]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[good.]"
Reno turns and
begins to head off.
Rufus
Shinra flies
off, starting to head toward the icicle town.
Reno crouches and
uses some of his newfound powers to run at an incredible speed to make good
time.
Rufus
Shinra swoops
down on a villager walking just outside the town.
Reno uses his
powers to faze half out of existence, making him seem like nothing more than a
shadow as he passes through the icicle inn town.
Rufus
Shinra mutes
the man's screams as he tears him to shreds, devouring everything in chunks.
Reno notices this
but doesn't seem to care.
Rufus
Shinra licks
up the blood from the snow and from around his snout. Lifts back up from the
ground and isn't seen by any of the town people as he flies silently overhead.
Reno makes his way
for bone village through the mountain, which separate it from icicle inn, now
being able to manage them.
Rufus
Shinra flies
to the shore, about where Reno now is, and lands there, dipping his head in to
drink, seemingly unaffected by the salt.
Reno continues on,
again paying no attention to Rufus as he arrives and waits outside the village
for a ship to arrive so he can head to the mainland.
Rufus
Shinra turns
his head to Reno.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[feed yet?]"
Reno says,
"[no, I haven't fed let no decent animals in this part.]"
Rufus
Shinra says, "[mmm... I fed. It was yummy.]"
Rufus
Shinra licks
his chops and grins.
Reno sees a ship
coming into harbor.
Reno says,
"[there's my ride to the mainland, goodbye Rufus.]"
Rufus
Shinra folds
his wings around his body and turns into flames.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[see you soon Reno.]"
Reno sneaks onto
the ship and settles down in a dark corner.
Rufus
Shinra flaps
his wings and takes off as the ship starts to move, landing on the far side of
the deck where no one is.
Reno decides to
take a nap and shuts his eyes.
Rufus
Shinra slinks
below deck, finding that though big he is very agile.
Rufus
Shinra says, "[Reno...]"
Reno eyes snap open
to glare at Rufus.
Reno says,
"[yes?]"
Rufus
Shinra settles
down near by him, curling up around his body.
Reno sighs and
closes his eyes again.
Rufus
Shinra goes
to sleep thanks to the rocking of the boat.
Reno falls asleep
as well.
