Zack yawns and stretches

Sephiroth leans a little on Zack... blinking at the sub

Sephiroth says, "that's odd..."

Vincent Valentine says, "oh... hi Seph..."

Sephiroth raises a silver eyebrow

Sephiroth says, "Vincent?"

Zack says, "Hmm... what's odd? Whose he?"

sephiroth says, "I was"

Vincent Valentine says, "...."

Zack says, "hey.. Seph... who's this guy?"

Sephiroth says, "his name is Vincent. he's one of the group Cloud led..."

Vincent Valentine lays his hand on his gun

Zack says, "Oh... you helped....kill Sephiroth?"

Vincent Valentine says, "..."

Zack puts his hand on the hilt of his sword... seeing Vincent going for his gun

sephiroth says, "It's ok love... he did not know the truth"

Zack says, "That little twerp Cloud had you all"

sephiroth gently pries Zack's fingers away from the sword

Vincent Valentine draws his gun a little bit

sephiroth says, "Put it away... save it for Rufus..."

Zack sheathes his sword

Zack says, "Yeah.. for Rufus... for what he did to all of us"

Vincent Valentine says, "he's dead... isnt he?"

Zack shakes his head

sephiroth says, "no, he survived... barely.. but has bounced back"

Vincent Valentine says, "what?!"

Zack says, "He an Cloud... are .... well.... "

sephiroth says, "in everything together..."

Vincent Valentine takes his hand away from his gun

Zack says, "You don't believe us... mebbe you should go get raped by them like Reno did"

sephiroth says, "Rufus is now part machine... so much was damaged"

Vincent Valentine says, "I guess ill save you for later.."

Zack shudders

Sephiroth looks at Vincent

Sephiroth says, "and why's that?"

Vincent Valentine looks back at Seph

Vincent Valentine says, "?"

Sephiroth says, "save us for later?"

Zack says, "Wait till you know who the real bad guy is this time"

Sephiroth says, "yes"

Vincent Valentine says, "the real bad guy?"

Sephiroth says, "Rufus and Cloud"

Vincent Valentine says, "Cloud?"

Sephiroth says, "yes... he and Rufus. They are evil"

Zack nods

Zack says, "You thought the spikey headed kid was the victim.... but nope.... Seph was....."

Sephiroth says, "Cloud killed my love..."

Vincent Valentine says, "Rufus I believe but cloud?"

Sephiroth says, "Rufus and Cloud are lovers"

Vincent Valentine says, "really?"

Sephiroth says, "yes"

Vincent Valentine says, "so Cloud betrayed us.."

Sephiroth says, "yes"

Vincent Valentine says, "I guess we'll have to teach him a lesson.."

Sephiroth says, "yes"

Vincent Valentine says, "along with Rufus.."

Sephiroth says, "very much so... send them to hell. they had a random execution the other day..."

Zack sighs

Zack says, "Betcha they were having sex while they were watching it..... they are some sick bastards"

sephiroth nods

sephiroth says, "I'd agree there"

Vincent Valentine says, "Eew..."

Sephiroth pulls Zack close

Zack says, "Sick sick sick little boy"

Sephiroth says, "very"

Zack says, "He was a nice kid to talk to... cept for his little pain fetish"

Sephiroth says, "pain fetish?"

Zack says, "Cloud... he was a little weird... I had more contact with him than you"

Sephiroth says, "tell me about it"

Zack says, "well.... "

Sephiroth looks at him

Zack says, "He was an avid pain freak... said pain would make him stronger. Little weirdo... always obsessed with being strong..."

Sephiroth says, "because of me?"

Zack says, "No clue... he just wanted to be strong..."

Vincent Valentine says, "why did Cloud go with Rufus?"

Zack says, "Had an attitude too..."

Sephiroth says, "hmmm"

Sephiroth kisses Zack's cheek

Zack says, "No Clue... but he never slept in the barracks"

Vincent Valentine says, "hmmm..."

Sephiroth says, "did he sleep with Rufus?"

Zack says, "I suppose so"

Sephiroth says, "What do you think Rufus taught him?"

Zack says, "Well... when the kid first signed up... he was quiet... withdrawn... but after he started disappearing at night.... He started getting violent and bad tempered"

Sephiroth says, "Why did I never notice?"

Zack shrugs

Zack says, "I was almost afraid to let him have weapons on missions... thought he was gonna go off and shoot one of us"

Vincent Valentine says, "it's still hard to believe... cloud and Rufus?"

Sephiroth says, "They are together. Zack... how did he stay a trooper with that attitude?"

Zack says, "He had a way of shutting off"

Sephiroth says, "hmmm"

Zack says, "It was weird... one minute he'd be deadly angry... the next he'd be all cool and composed. I used to put in transfer requests... to get him the hell outta my unit... but they'd send it back... declined.... The kid got things done...."

Sephiroth nods

Sephiroth says, "and he was sleeping with the Vice President"

Zack says, "Yeah... that was a major added bonus... couldn't touch him. Makes me wonder why Rufus didn't artificially promote him"

Sephiroth says, "but no one knew. Not sure... maybe cause it was a secrete coupling"

Zack says, "People guessed though... those two were always close"

Sephiroth says, "really?"

Zack says, "Yeah... at least I guessed what was going on"

Sephiroth says, "when love?"

Zack says, "When Cloud finally got transferred to Junon... same time as Rufus... quite convenient"

Sephiroth nods

Sephiroth says, "yes... I understand"

Sephiroth kisses the side of Zack's neck

Sephiroth says, "so Vincent... will you join us?"

Vincent Valentine says, "I guess. It'd be weird though..."

Sephiroth says, "good. Weird? Cloud tricked you"

Vincent Valentine says, "..."

Sephiroth looks at Vincent

Vincent Valentine sighs

Vincent Valentine says, "I guess so..."

Sephiroth says, "well... we need all the help we can get"

Vincent Valentine says, "ok then"

Sephiroth says, "good. Come on... we'll go to the inn... that's where Tifa and Reno are"

Vincent Valentine nods

Sephiroth hooks Zack's arms and leads Vincent back to the inn

Vincent Valentine follows

Sephiroth says, "Tifa... look who we found"

Tifa Lockheart says, "Vincent! How's it going?"

Vincent Valentine says, "hello Tifa, im pretty good. How about you...?"

Tifa Lockheart says, "Alright... just pissed that Cloud's a traitor"

Vincent Valentine says, "yeah... we'll get him back though..."

Sephiroth says, "and he hurt Reno"

Sephiroth leans on Zack

Tifa Lockheart says, "Makes me wonder.... Why did he do it?"

Sephiroth says, "love?"

Vincent Valentine says, "I was wondering the same thing..."

Reno walks in from the next room, yawning

Zack shrugs

Zack says, "Vengeance?"

Tifa Lockheart says, "Reno! How are you feeling?"

Reno says, "better"

Reno smiles and puts his arms around Tifa, kissing her cheek softly

Tifa Lockheart says, "im sorry... I shouldn't have let you go"

Reno says, "It's ok... I couldn't be talked out of it, remember?"

Tifa Lockheart says, "Yeah..."

Reno kisses her lips

Reno says, "I'm better now though"

Sephiroth looks at Vincent

Vincent Valentine looks back at Seph

Sephiroth says, "you are very quiet "

Vincent Valentine says, "yeah.... Im just thinking..."

Tifa Lockheart sits happily with Reno

Reno sits and cuddles to her sad

Vincent Valentine watches Reno and Tifa

Sephiroth says, "hmmm...."

Sephiroth looks at Zack

Zack says, "You getting ideas from watching them Seph?"

Sephiroth says, "I just thought of something... Cloud had Jenova cells in him... maybe we should test his blood... do we have it on file before Hojo got a hold of him?"

Vincent Valentine looks at Seph

Sephiroth looks at Vincent

Sephiroth says, "do you know where we can get it?"

Vincent Valentine says, "hmm..."

Zack says, "Prolly do... but what would that prove? Genetic engineering? He's a little strong for a squirty lil kid"

Sephiroth says, "I want to see how powerful he was before that stuff... same with Rufus... then maybe we can figure out some virus or something to infect them both. Or how to make Cloud powerless again"

Reno leans on Tifa and falls asleep

Vincent Valentine says, "that's a good idea"

Zack nods

Sephiroth looks to Zack

Sephiroth says, "know where to get some?"

Zack says, "We could try the Mansion in Nibelheim... I mean... that's where we were kept for 5 years"

Sephiroth says, "yes... let's go. We can use the sub to get across"

Vincent Valentine says, "ShinRa mansion?"

Sephiroth says, "you were there for a long time Vincent"

Vincent Valentine says, "yeah... I know..."

Sephiroth says, "Let's leave now... the sooner the better"

Vincent Valentine says, "ok..."

Sephiroth takes Zack's arm and heads for the door

Reno yawns and stands

Sephiroth says, "come on Zack... Tifa, Vincent, Reno..."

Vincent Valentine says, "to Nibelheim, right?"

Sephiroth says, "yes"

Vincent Valentine says, "I think I know how"

Sephiroth says, "the sub?"

Zack says, "Yeah... Vincent thinks he can drive... Im sure we can trust him"

Sephiroth says, "heh... ok"

Sephiroth kisses Zack

Vincent Valentine hopes he remembers

Reno says, "come on... we are not getting anything done here"

Reno kisses Tifa's cheek and tries to lead her to the door

Vincent Valentine pushes his hair back. Walks to the sub

Sephiroth follows Vincent

Reno follows as well

Vincent Valentine opens the door and lets everyone go in ahead of him

Sephiroth goes inside

Reno follows Sephiroth

Tifa Lockheart peers inside the sub

Tifa Lockheart says, "It looks... a little tight in there.... Umm... can I stay here?"

Reno says, "I've been in this before... I'll take the controls... ok?"

Vincent Valentine looks at Reno

Sephiroth sits down in a corner and pulls Zack into his lap

Reno looks at Vincent

Reno says, "what do you want?"

Vincent Valentine says, "...fine then, take the controls"

Zack relaxes

Reno says, "good"

Tifa Lockheart says, "Reno... we shot you down... remember?"

Reno says, "I know... in this sub. That's why I'm driving"

Zack chuckles

Tifa Lockheart says, "Umm... Nevermind Reno... just hope nobody's chasing us"
