So You Want to Sell Your Soul...

The city, Midgar was full of people. Soulless, faceless people that ate and breathed and worked and slept. People who didn't have a prayer when it came to protecting themselves from the evils of the world. The monsters that lurked in the darkness, in the streets at night and threatened their very lives as they lay sleeping. Then there were the creatures that inhabited the city, just as monstrous and inhuman but somehow more honest about wanting to destroy you and for what reason.

The Turks were the last bastions of defense against the evils that was AVALANCHE led by Fuhito. They were the only thing separating the world from teetering beyond the brink of despair and falling into destruction. Everything they cared about would disappear. Homes, lives, family. They were a family. Drastic measures had to be taken, consequences notwithstanding. They were underpowered, short handed. There was no way to win against these guys. Reno could not let any more fall to Fuhito and his bunch. He had lost too many people he was willing to call friend. This was where it ended.

This room.

Reno held the grip of his EMR tightly, knuckles turning white with the force, standing in front of an impressively carved oak desk. It was an audacious plan, one that could backfire or cause any number of unexpected things, but it was their one last hope. They needed help, more power, something, and Reno was going to sacrifice himself to get it- not that he had that much humanity left anyway. Not with most of his friends six feet under. He was a lone turk against the world.

The person behind the desk was sitting in an over-sized winged back chair, facing the large floor to ceiling window overlooking the city basking in the glow of mako. Nothing was going to get done like that, he had power to buy and a soul to sell. He walked forward and grabbed the chair to swing it around.

Sorry for the lateness :(

Reno's question makes her pause. What was she going to do about it?

Well, what she always did. Something probably dangerous and involving materia. Gotta stick to her old standby, right?

"Who knows, maybe I got plans," she says this loftily. She's now distracted from her search, instead propping herself against the desk with her arms crossed. "Not that I'm gonna tell anyone or anything."

Which means she actually has no plan at all, but bluffing has always worked for her in the past.

Sometimes.

"Yeah, she doesn't need it, and she looks damn good." It intimidates people, and that's hot, as far as Reno's concerned. "Huh, can't imagine her as a guy, though." She looks him over. "But I couldn't picture me as one either, and I look good--so he probably does, too." Makes sense to her.

Well, here was something that sounded familiar. Reno nodded. "I know, right? I keep telling her, that strong, silent act doesn't exactly reel in the guys. Not to mention the fact that she has the worst taste in them."

Reno's amused and almost pitying headshake was perhaps not fair to Rude, but it was fondly meant, in its way. "She really should follow my good advice. One of these days, maybe she'll learn."
