Chapter 7: The Plan

Reno and Rufus sat at the table in silence for a few more minutes, letting the facts set in.

"The reason I suspended you, is because it would've been irresponsible of me not to take any course of action against a problem."

"I know. You were doing your job and I respect that, y'know?" Reno asked calmly. He had lost his slang of 'yo' since he left Shinra, but he was getting it back.

"Good. I expected that of you, however... Now what do we do about Scarlet?" Reno smirked.

"I may have a few ideas, yo..."

Tseng had locked Rufus' office door to avoid vandalism from anyone on Scarlets' faction. Even though Rufus appointed him head of Shinra for a while, Tseng was having some trouble keeping Scarlets' dogs at bay. It was a time that he wished Cloud hadn't killed Dark Nation. He sighed heavily, returning to his paperwork.

"When are you coming back, President Shinra...?"

"No. It's too easy. She'll see through it." Rufus refused, as Reno scratched out yet another prank idea on paper.

"You're hard to please, yo. Did you know that? No wonder you can't get a girlfriend..." He mumbled, receiving a death glare from Rufus and a slight giggle from Elena who sat next to him on his left. Rude sat to his right, showing no emotion, but Reno knew he would be doubled over if Rufus wasn't there.

"I assure you, I am capable of getting a girlfriend, Reno."

Reno sat his pencil down.

"Willing to bet on that, boss?" He asked stretching his hand out. Rufus sneered.

"I don't have time for women. We all know our jobs are too demanding and secretive for society's concern."

"Oh, so you're admitting defeat..."

"I'm admitting nothing, Reno. Let's get back to the plans." Reno looked down to his scratched out paper and sighed heavily.

"Rude, got anything? I'm fresh out at the moment." His friend sat in silence for a moment, thinking.

"Two words: Mako Bomb."

Reno set down his pencil yet again and looked up slowly.

"You finished it?!"

"Last week. I ran it through a test to see how powerful it was. Aerith would hate me for making that thing." Rude admitted as Rufus and Elena looked at the 2 of them in confusion.

"Rude, when did you make this Mako Bomb?" Rufus asked in a calm tone.

"Before Meteor struck. When Shinra Inc was attacked by Diamond Weapon." He explained keeping his stoic demeanor.

"Shinra technology at its finest."

"You are aware that a bomb like that would cause a calamity, correct?" The president asked watching Reno stand up and run to get some large sheets of paper. He came back and laid the large planning paper across the table with a blue, red and black pen.

"Don't sweat it, boss. I won't use our new building. We'll find a way to use the old Shinra building. It's certainly big enough..." Reno said, beginning to draw an idea.

"What if the building were to collapse in the process? And you were inside...? I don't want to lose one of my Turks to something that can be avoided."

"Oh, so now you're concerned for me..." Reno piped sarcastically.

"I have concern for all the Turks that work for me. You're dealing with highly lethal explosives, Reno. Don't forget that." The president pointed out as Reno glanced at Rude, then down to the paper. His ponytail falling forward, over his shoulder as he sketched out a plan, then scribbled it out and started over.

"Shinra technology at its finest, yo. Rude doesn't let us down when it comes to explosives, sir."

Elena sat quietly, watching reno sketch out the plans in using the Mako Bomb. He sighed heavily.

"This'll take a few days, boss. I should bring it back to the company to work on with you and Rude, since he's the one who constructed the bomb." Reno rolled up the sheets of paper, placing them in a plastic tube with the pens and sealing it.

"We better go back. I can't leave Tseng to fend off Scarlet alone. Change quickly, then meet us at the car." Rufus instructed, as reno was already heading to his room.

"You got it."

A minute later, Reno sat in the back seat with Rufus, going over small parts of the scheme.

"I need the blueprints to the old building. All the floors. Can you get those for me, yo?"

"I think I can get my hands on them by tomorrow morning. Is that alright?" Asked the president, looking over the plans that lay across the 2 mens laps.

"Perfect! I won't let Scarlet see me and she won't know what's coming, yo." Reno said with a smirk. Rude pulled into the parking garage, parking the car into a far off corner and turning the ignition. It felt different for Reno to be back inside Shinra, until there was an explosion causing Elena, Rude and Rufus to look at Reno.

"I'm right here, yo! I didn't do it, I swear it!"

"Sir, I think we should go check on Tseng..." Elena suggested, running to the flights of stairs.

"Elena! Use the elevator, Rufus can't do stairs yet!" Reno called, stopping the blond woman dead in her tracks.

"Oh, right... I forgot... Sorry, sir." She said in embarrassment blushing slightly. Rufus nodded, forgiving her as the 4 of them went for the elevator.
