GB: Well time to get started.
"Hey guys what's up?" JP asked as he approached (KH)Sora and Riku, who were both enjoying a drink.
"Nothing really just enjoying these drinks" Riku said with a small chuckle as he took another sip.
"Say can I ask you guys a question?" JP asked the two Keyblade holders who nodded their heads. "What do you guys know about that Roger guy?" He asked the two boys.
"Well he's a pretty cool guy." Riku said as he answered the warrior's of thunder's question.
"Yeah we did have an interesting conversation on the way over here." (KH)Sora informed the boy.
(Flashback)
"Thank you for giving us a ride Mr. Smith" Kairi said from the backseat of The Griffon, while sitting between both (KH)Sora and Riku.
"A gentleman should never leave a lady and her friends stranded in the middle of the road, and please call me Roger." He said with a charming smile on his face.
"Well thanks for giving us a lift Roger we owe you one." (KH)Sora said with a grateful smile on his face.
"Hey it's the least I could do if it wasn't for you three we'd be lost right about now." Roger stated to the three kids. "So where are kids from anyway?" He asked them out of curiosity.
"We're from Destiny Island." Riku said nonchalantly while looking out the window.
"It's a really nice place to live the oceans there are really calming and the sunsets are beautiful to watch." Kairi said to the negotiator as she described their home world.
"Where are you guys from?" (KH)Sora asked wanting to know where the two people in front were from.
"We're from Paradigm City" Roger simply stated to them in calm cool tone.
"Really, what's it like there?" Riku asked curious about said city.
"Well Paradigm is the city of amnesia, mostly everyone there doesn't remember a thing about their pasts." Roger explained to them.
"Really, what happened to have caused that?" (KH)Sora asked in astonishment.
"There was an event that happened forty years ago, and it caused the memory loss of the citizens of Paradigm City" Dorothy explained in a monotone voice.
"Have there been people who've tried to regain their memories?" Kairi asked, wanting to know more about the city.
"I've came across a few people who wanted to regain memories of the past, but trust me there are some things that are better left forgotten." Roger stated solemnly.
Riku simply nodded his head in agreement, knowing exactly what Roger was talking about.
"What about you Roger, have you ever tried to regain memories from your past?" (KH)Sora asked the negotiator.
"I've learned a long time ago that some memories are better left buried" Roger stated coolly to him.
"But haven't you ever wandered about your past or the people you've forgotten?" Kairi asked him.
"To be honest there was a point in my life when I was starting to wonder about my very own existence." Roger informed them with a small smile on his face.
The three teens looked at him with a look of pity for the man.
"I wondered if my life was just some play and I was just some actor portraying a fictional character on stage." Roger said in a low tone. "I didn't know if everything I experienced up to that point was all real or merely a dream." He said with a monotone voice.
The three of them were surprised to what they heard, his story reminded them of what Roxas went through before he merged back with Sora.
They wanted to say something to him, but before they could utter a word roger had spoken up again.
"I've learned though it's not a person's past that defines who they are but the things they do in the present and the new memories they gain from it." Roger stated with a smile on his face that screamed determination.
The three teens could only admire him, they knew he had a point to what he had said as they understood his point.
"So Roger what do you do for a living?" Kairi asked changing the subject.
"I'm Paradigm City's top negotiator, it's my job for finding a resolution for the troubles of the city." Roger said as he explained his job to the three teens.
"Man that must sound rough, is your job always like that?" Riku asked with curiosity in his voice.
"Most of the time it is, but there are times when I'm able to find a peaceful resolution without the necessity of violence." Roger responded to him with a cool smile on his face.
"What happens if things doesn't go as planned and you have to use violence?" (KH)Sora asked him.
"If that were to happen and if the situation calls for it, that's when I bring out Big O." Roger said as he answered his question. "A Negotiator only uses force as a last resort, that's one of my rules of the trade when I'm out working." He explained to them.
"I'm guessing that you have other rules too." Riku said to the black haired man in the drivers seat.
"As a matter of fact I do have a few rules for my everyday life." Roger said with a warm smile on his face. "You have to use your pent-up energy to fight through the harshness of reality. That's Roger Smith's Rule No. 2" He told them.
"What's rule No. 1?" (KH)Sora asked him.
"If you want to live a happy life in Paradigm city, leave memories alone when they pop up. That's Roger Smith's Rule No. 1." He said to them.
They wanted to say something to him about it, but the look he had on his told them it's better for them to not know.
"If those are your work rules I wander what your house rules are?" Riku stated to the man.
"Well I do have a few house rules for instance if someone lacks courtesy and sincerity, I ask them to leave." He said to the three teens in the backseat of his car.
"Another house rule I have is If you stay in my house, then you wear black" Roger said signaling to himself and Dorothy.
"Wear black huh? You should meet some of the members of Organization XIII then." Riku said to the negotiator with a slight chuckle.
"His fashion sense could use a bit of work." Dorothy said in her monotone voice, which earned a few snickers from the backseat.
"Are there anymore house rules you have?" Kairi asked out of curiosity.
"Why yes I do I have a special house rule that only lovely young women can unconditionally enter my mansion." Roger stated with a charming smile that caused Kairi to blush a bit.
"Roger Smith you are such a louse." Dorothy stated to him in her dull voice.
(Flash back ends)
"Wait I have a question who is Big O?" JP asked in slight confusion of the story he just heard.
"Well you see he told us that's his megadeus he uses when things starts get way out of hand if the negations doesn't turnout right." (KH)Sora informed the young warrior of Thunder.
"A mega what?" JP asked dumbfounded by what the heck the two boys were talking about.
"To be honest we have no clue either, he said if we're lucky we might get to see it." Riku informed the chubby boy as he took another sip of his drink.
"Well he does sound kind of cool, but I doubt he'll be able to come to a 'peaceful resolution' between Pein and Haruhi." JP stated with his arms crossed and a doubtful look on his face.
"Well I wouldn't say that about him, I mean after all his is Paradigm City's top negotiator." (KH)Sora stated with a confident smile on his face.
(Meeting Room)
Pein, Konan, Haruhi, Kyon, Deidara, and Roger were all setting around a long square table in a well lit room. Pein and Konan were setting on left side of the table while Haruhi and Kyon were setting on the left side of the table. Roger was setting in the center of the table with Deidara setting across from him.
The tension in the room was off the charts high, both Pein and Haruhi glared at each other from the their respective seats. It was like two gods were ready to go off into an epic battle to the death, with only one able to claim the prize that is the soul of Deidara.
Sensing the tension in the air Roger decided it was time to break the silence and he spoke up to get everyone's attention.
"Before we conduct the negation let me take the time to introduce myself, my name is Roger Smith and it's nice to make your acquaintance." Roger informed them in a professional tone.
"It's nice to meet you Mr. Smith." Konan said trying to be polite as Pein simply nodded his head in agreement. "My name is Konan and this is Pein leader of the Akatsuki, in which Deidara is a member of." She explained to him.
Roger simply nodded his head and turned to face the two brigade members.
"Well it's nice to meet you Mr. Smith." Kyon said in a pleasant tone of voice. "My name is Kyon and this is Haruhi Suzumiya leader of the of The S.O.S Brigade, of which Deidara is also a member of." Kyon stated to the black haired man who nodded his head in agreement.
"Well seeing that this mostly centered around you" Roger stated while gesturing to Deidara. "Would you care to explain the situation at hand here?" He said to the blonde bomber.
"Well you see it's kind of like this, yeah" Deidara said as he started to the explain the entire ordeal that lead up to this moment.
"I see, so basically Pein here wants you to honor your commitment to the Akatsuki, but feels that your engagement to The S.O.S Brigade is starting to interfere with your duties." Roger said as he started to put the pieces together.
"If you ask me I think he should honor his commitment to the brigade, after all I Pein can barely control the members he has left." Haruhi stated smug look on her face.
Needless to say that Pein refused to allow someone like her talk down to him like that, so he fixed his glare on her and he spoke up.
"Deidara was a member of the Akatsuki long before he joined your little after school club, and furthermore I am able to keep the members of this group in line." Pein said with and affirmative voice.
Kyon could tell that Haruhi was not going to back down from him so she stood up from her seat and she pointed her finger at Pein.
"You listen here I treat Deidara much better than you treat him or any of the other members of the Akatsuki! Besides if you ask me your more like a front for a true mastermind." Haruhi stated to the pierced man.
"How dare you!" Pein growled under his breath. "I've seen the way you run your little club, I've seen the way you've used Mikuru for your own personal gain. You are just a spoiled little girl who force others to do things just to please you, you are not a leader you are just a little girl who is afraid of being ordinary." He stated with a serious look in his eyes.
"You take that back!" Haruhi yelled as she slammed her hands on the table and stood up from her seat.
"No I want." Pein said as he stood from his seat with a glare equal to Haruhi's glare.
"Alright both of you that's enough!" Roger said as he tried to the calm the two down. "The basic rule of negotiating is to consider and respect the other person's feelings, now I know that you are both respectable leaders of your groups. I'm sure that you both can keep your emotions at bay and act like adults." Roger stated to both of them in a calm voice and quiet voice.
Pein and Haruhi both glared at each other for a little while longer before taking their seats.
Seeing this Konan, Kyon, and Deidara where all equally shocked and amazed at how Roger was able to get the both of them to listen to him. All three of them knew that Pein and Haruhi both a god complex, and it was heard to control them at times. This man had done what no one else was able to do.
"From everything I've gathered from Deidara how about this? Pein why don't you let Deidara continue to stay in the brigade on the grounds that he does his duties for the first?" Roger stated.
"Fine." Pein simply said to him.
"Haruhi could you honor Deidara's previous commitment to the Akatsuki on the grounds that you acknowledge Pein's whishes?" Roger asked the brown haired girl.
"Fine." Haruhi pouted. "As long as we can get another member of the Akatsuki to join the S.O.S Brigade!" She told the negotiator.
"I'm afraid that most of the guys wouldn't join your brigade, well except for one who I believe wouldn't mind joining you while Deidara is absent." Konan stated in a calm tone of voice.
"Ok then, can we still use the base as a second meeting then?" Haruhi asked the blue haired woman.
"Yes, but only when Deidara is with you though." Konan said to her with a calm look on her face.
"Can we still use Pein's room seeing as he won't be using it?" Haruhi asked her with curiosity in her voice.
Konan sought her gaze onto Pein to see if he'll approve of the suggestion.
"Fine, but only if Deidara is with you and on the grounds that you organize it back to the way I had it." Pein stated to all of them with his eyes closed.
"Agreed then, but may I ask who did you pick to be in the brigade when Deidara is unavailable?" Kyon asked the blue haired woman setting across from him.
"Tobi" Konan said without a care in the world.
This caused a few mixed reactions from some of the people in the room, Pein had a smirk on his face knowing of the annoyance Tobi will be to Haruhi. Deidara had a pale look on his face like he was ready to faint right then and there, Kyon having seen what Tobi is like simply groaned on what he had to look forward too.
"Well fine then, Tobi is now a new member of The S.O.S Brigade" Haruhi said with a small smirk on her face.
"I couldn't agree with you more." Pein said with a sly smirk on his face with a hint of malice in his voice.
"Then it appears that we have come to terms on the negation then." Roger said with a small smile on his face.
"Well there still is some stuff we need to get for Deidara, in order to prepare for the event later on tonight." Haruhi stated to the others.
"I tell you what, I'll go and get the items needed for tonight's event then." Roger said as he got up from his seat.
"Well ok then, I'll go and get Mikuru she'll know exactly what to get." Haruhi said as she left the room with Kyon following her.
"So leader I can still be part of the brigade then, un?" Deidara asked as he approached Pein.
"Yes, as long as you put you Akatsuki duties first though." Pein stated to the blonde bomber.
"I must admit that for a second I thought you were going to kill someone." Konan said as she walked passed Pein.
"Well not YET anyway, I'll do the honors of telling Tobi he's now part of two groups now." Pein said as he left the room with Deidara behind him.
It now just Roger and Konan left in the room, Roger soon walked over to where Konan was standing.
"I must say I am quite impressed, not many people can stand up to Pein. Well not the ones who don't have any special abilities anyway." She stated to him.
"They don't call me Paradigm City's top negotiator for nothing." He said with a charming smile on his face, which caused Konan to blush a little.
"Well anyway thank you for your services" Konan said as she walked away.
"Don't mention it" Roger said to himself while standing in the doorway.
He started to walk down the hallway until he saw Haruhi heading his way with Mikuru in tow.
"Roger this is Mikuru, and Mikuru this is Roger Smith." Haruhi said as she introduced the two.
"It's nice to meet you sir" Mikuru said while giving Roger a polite bow.
"Likewise I'm sure." Roger said politely.
"Well anyway Mikuru here will be assisting you in collecting some of the items on this list here." Haruhi said as she shoved the list in Roger's face for him to read.
"Well then I guess we should get going then." Roger said as he put the paper into his pocket, and started to walk off with Mikuru behind him.
(Living Room)
"Hey there Roger how did everything turnout?" (KH)Sora asked the negotiator as he and Mikuru came into view.
"To be honest it went pretty well, there was no violence involved either" Roger stated to him with a cocky smile on his face.
"What are you kidding me? Knowing those two there had to be a little blood involved." JP said in disbelief.
"Trust me there were a few heated words, but nothing serious that could've lead to a murder." Roger informed the young warrior of Thunder.
"Mr. Smith I don't mean to sound rude or anything, but we should really get going" Mikuru said timidly.
"You're right we really should get going, and please call me Roger." Roger said with a sheepish grin.
"Where are you guys going too?" JP asked as he approached the two.
"Well we're going to pick up some supplies." Mikuru informed him.
"I've got nothing better to do around here so I'm coming with you then." JP said as he invited himself aboard.
"Mind if I tag along as well?" BBC as approached them with a smile on her face.
"Sure I have no problem with that." Roger stated as he walked outside to his car with his three passengers right behind him.
