Welcome to Gaia! ::

'hey, hey, c'mon, theres no need for violnce! I'm just a mercenary looking for a job, considering the rumors I've heard you guys sound like you need help." Murdock said pleasantly, smiling but ready if the guards tried anything. 'My friend here is alittle... well, lets just say to many hits to the head in a fight haven't done him any good! But hes here for no reason... now, this can either go two ways... you can just let me through so I can see the president or I can just kill you and take your jobs..." He said, still smiling pleasantly. " Alittle extreme, but times are kinda hard hard for me, I'm sure you'll understand."

The gaurds glanced at each other, and a silent communication passed between them, they nodded. In the next moment all four of them drew small blunt-ended pistols without any perceivable bullet slots. In one motion they aimed and fired. Murdock and his freind both found themselves writhing on the ground in pain as electricity jolted painfully through their bodies. Their limbs were completely unresponsive and they were as helpless as fish on land as the gaurds moved forward and briskly secured them with cuffs and cords. The lead gaurd paused for a moment to speak into his com-device. "Professor,... Initial test of stun-guns is a success." Then he closed it and the gaurds bodily dragged Murdock and Reton into the lower regions of the very building they had been so desparet to enter.

"Ho there, you awake?" A voice intruded on Murdock's musings, it was a light tenor definetally belonging to a male figure and surprisingly energetic and amused despite the circumstances. Murdock found himself in a cell, and contrary to popular beleif it was not dank, he sat on a small slightly worn cot complete with sheets and a half-sized pillow, the walls were stone of a light grey. and the fellow who had spoken to him belied the 'dreary' aspect as well with his light-hearted tone. A short distance from Murdock's own bed two cots had been disembled and their matresses placed on the floor. Laying calmly on these was what might be described as a felis-centaur. A chimera with the upper torsoe of a man, the lower half of a four-legged creature with cat fore-legs and horse hind-legs. the Blonde-haired blue-eyed human portion smiled pleasantly, "You hungry?"

Aeris smiled warmly at Tseng, he was one of the few people left who she'd ever known, and she'd known him longer than almost anyone. She turned to Reeve and politely asked. "What plan might this be? Or...am I not classified to know?" She added nervously realizing now that she held no ranking with the ShinRa corporation, she'd never been more than an interesting experiement, or at least, that was how it used to have been...

"My name's freyr Svaldifari" The Chimera informed him pleasantly, rising as he spoke to stretch. His front paws slid forward until his beast-chest nearly touched the ground, all of his toes spread, claws extended fully as if to emphasis the fact that each razor curve was nearly 5 inches long. his human-torsoe arced backward, both hands exended behind him until they were almost equal with his equine flanks. An odd if sinuous movement which proved Freyr was startlingly flexible for his inhuman build. Now satisfied he straigtened and trotted over to Murdock, "Naw I think you're stuck here." He explained cheerfully, "The gaurds don't seem particularly eager to release criminals right now..." he gazed at the young man before him for a breif moment before grinning and leaning in closer, until his face sat less than a foot from Murdock's own. "Wanna see something funny?" He asked intently, his breath was oddly sweet,... and smelled vaughly reminiscent of fruit.

Elena watched silently standing neatly at attention as Reeve explained things to Aeris. Her eyes widened at the realization that the man before her would be the new president, but it didn't take much thought to realize that either Heidegar or Scarlet in charge would simply bring disaster. "Mr. President" She added bowing formally to Reeve, "What are your orders sir?"

"Great!" Freyr exclaimed at Murdock's approval. He settled himself on the floor once again on his own make-shift bed. "They threw me in here cause I look scary." He informed his cellmate casually, unaffected by the seeming insult. He sat calmly watching the gaurd until said individual's eyes focused on the chimera, then as though he didn't noticed the man's attention he popped a small green-colored sphere into his mouth. The gaurd leapt to his feet with a yelp,
"Hey! what was that!! What did you just put in your mouth??" The young man cried in startlement,
Freyr simply smiled, "Get nervous, I'm eating JENOVA cells!!" Freyr informed him gaily.
With a startled shout the gaurd raced down out of the room, "Captain! Captain!! He's got JENOVA! He's crazy!!" the cries echoed down the hall much to Freyr's obvious amusement, until a rather frazled looking superior officer stepped into the room. "What NOW?" And while they both watched Freyr popped yet another sphere into his mouth, at which point the younger gaurd fainted dead away. "Dang it!" The captain snapped, glaring daggers at Freyr, "That is the tenth one!"
Freyr grinned, "And that candy wasn't even green!"

It took a few moments for the gravity of the matter to sink in. "You mean... are we going to have to fight them?" There had already been so much bloodshed, was it really necessary for more? "Well, I suppose that we aren't going to have much choice are we?"

(He did not have the jenova cells at the timethis is taking place.)



Renton started to wake up. He had been asleep for a while and noticed that there was another figure and voice in the room. He sat up waited for the two to stop talking so that he could introduce himself. "I am Renton and you are?" (Speeking to the chimera.)
