Silvur yawned while she leaned against the rail of the stairs that lead up to the lounge-type area. So far, the night had been boring for her and Seifer, but great for Raijin, Fujin, and Jack. It was almost 1 a.m. and customers had finally stopped pouring in, and the line outside was gone, making it so Seifer was able to come inside. Even though there weren't many customers, she still stayed alert, mainly keeping an eye on Irvine Kinneas. Who, from what she could tell, was having a little too much to drink. When she looked over to Seifer, she wasn't surprised to see that he was watching the SeeDs too, causing the events of that night to run through her mind once again, for like the millionth time. She raised a gloved hand to the back of her head, feeling for the bump that had been left by Squall's gunblade when he hit her over the head. The bump was now gone, but she felt the scar that it left behind, but was brought out of her daydreaming when she heard a big rucus coming from the SeeD table.
Irvine was standing nose to nose with a heavyset man, more of the bulky biker type than the bodybuilder type, but he could still crush Irvine like a bug if he wanted to. It was also apparent that both of them were drunk off their asses, but what they were fighting over, Silvur had no idea so she walked over to Seifer. "What's going on?"
"Irvine started making passes and obscene gestures at that biker's guys woman, and from the look of it...he's not very happy."
She raised an eyebrow. "No shit Sherlock. Well, let's get in there before this get's really nasty." She tugged on her gloves to make sure they were on tight, and smacked a fist into her palm, doing a mock impersonation of Zell, which made Seifer laugh.
"You know, you look just like chicken-wuss when you do that...just with better hair." He smirked and they both walked over to Irvine and the biker.
Silvur walked behind Irvine, while Seifer decided it would be best if he handled the biker, and right when they were about to grab them, the biker pulled back his hand swung at Irvine, who ducked, causing Silvur to get hit instead. The biker's punch caught her in the cheek, a large cut appearing where his ring hit her. The wound was bleeding quite badly, but that didn't stop her from looking up at the biker, a smirk appearing on her face, telling him he had really fucked up. Before he could even defend himself, she had already charged forward, planting her elbow into his stomach, which caused him to fall backwards, and onto the floor. He lay coughing and wheezing on the floor, when she heard glass shatter, and looked behind her to see another biker on the floor, and a broken beer bottle in Rinoa's hand. She didn't have time to thank her though, for the brawl had already begun. She looked over to the bar and whistled for Raijin and Fujin to come help, and saw them immediately throw off their aprons and hop over the bar.
Silvur ran up to the nearest biker, who's back was turned to her, and heel dropped him, sending him to the floor. Damn, I'm good! She grinned at the thought, but didn't have much time for celebration, for she was being surrounded by four of the big biker's friends. One of them smirked and broke open a whiskey bottle on a table, and motioned for her to come forward. "Come on little girly, show me what you got!"
Silvur raised an eyebrow. "Girly? Mister, you have no idea who you're fucking with."
"Hahahaha, humor me then!" They started chuckling as they circled her, each one now holding some sort of weapon.
"Well, I usually don't humor idiots...but for you, I think I'll make an acception." She stood alert, waiting and watching for the one who would be stupid enough to make the first move. Finally, one of the guys behind her came forward, running as fast as he could, and was immediately knocked to the floor when his stomach came in contact with Silvur's hiking boots. She looked at the other's and didn't wait for them to make a move, with quicksilver speed, she charged forward, hitting one guy with a Triple Jab and a kick to the stomach. Once he was down, she turned to the last two, and as they charged forward, she hit them with a triple roundhouse kick, easily knocking them to the floor. As she turned around, she saw Edea being harassed by a couple of thugs, and rushed forward at them, jumping in the air and spinning her left leg around, kicking the two in the back of the head, and when she landed, she quickly spun sideways, bringing her right leg around this time, hitting one of them square in the back, incapacitating him, but not enough to paralyze him. In the corner of her eye she saw the other go to get up, and did a quick leg sweep, knocking his feet out from under him, and as he fell she heard his head hit one of the tables, which most likely knocked him out cold. She looked at Edea. "You alright?"
She nodded. "Yes, I am fine. Thank you for helping me."
"Just doing my job." She shrugged and headed over to where Seifer was trying to fight almost 10 guys at once. She simply strode up behind one of them and kicked him in the back of the head, and followed it with a heel drop to the guys stomach. He cried out in pain, and held his stomach. Silvur just smirked and turned to the next drunk, where she grabbed him by the collar and thew him into at least four of the other's, all of them falling to the ground. What was funny to her was when Raijin came out of nowhere and jumped across the four while they were on the ground, and the sight of their eye's nearly popping out of their sockets was a Kodak moment. She glanced over in Fujin's direction, and saw she had everything pretty much covered, especially when she kicked a guy in the balls. When she turned around to start fighting again, she was caught off-guard by a beer bottle coming right at her, and all she felt was the glass breaking as it tore a long cut across her forehead, her vision quickly blurring red, which she knew was because of the blood, she used a sleeve of her jacket to wipe it away. Kneeling, she looked up at the guy holding the bottle and quickly came forward, hitting him in the chest with her elbow, secretly using a small Fire spell to increase the damage since she still had her GF junctioned to her. The force of the impact knocked the brawler back against the wall, and he fell to the floor, holding his chest and trying to catch his breath. He looked up and said in a wheezing voice. "What the helll...", he coughed,"..was that?"
Silvur just smirked and blew him a kiss, then went back to fighting. Heh, guess it was a good thing I took those Tae Kwon Do lesson's after all. The cut across her forehead was still bleeding badly, the blood still blurring her vision, and she used her jacket sleeve again to wipe it away. Ahh..the life of a bouncer..hell, this is even more fun that being a SeeD. She grinned and came up behind one of the few drunk brawlers still standing and swooped down, using her hands to push her legs up and into the middle of the guys back, making him fly off the floor and crash onto a table nearby. Yeah, this is definitely better.
About half an hour later the bar was completely empty, except for Jack and his employees, and a couple of SeeD's who had stayed behind to help clean up the mess, Quistis being one of them. The posse was a little nervous to have them stick around, they had afterall, almost killed them. Raijin and Fujin were cleaning up behind the bar, while Jack, Quistis, Seifer, Edea, and Zell were either sweeping up shards of glass, or picking tables that were broken. Silvur was upstairs trying to clean the cuts that were on her face, she had managed to clean and put a bandage on the cut that was on her left cheek. While the one across the forehead was a little tougher. Since it was in just about the same place Seifer's scar was, she wasn't able to put a bandage on it. She winced when the alcohol she used to clean it touched the wound. "Shit!" She dropped the small dropper she was using in the sink and placed a gauze to it. The sting just added to the headache she had. She sighed, and picked up the dropper, then continued cleaning the wound.
After they finished cleaning up, Edea headed upstairs to sit and rest for a few moments. All the excitement from the brawl had her tired, and wary. That was the first time she had ever been in something like that, and it was the last time, she told herself. When she reached the top of the stairs, she saw one the boucer's leaning back in a chair with her feet propped on the table, and she was holding what appeared to be an icepack in between her eyes. She had the premonition that she had seen the young lady before, where, she couldn't seem to place it. Edea walked over, and sat in the chair infront of her. "Busy night, huh?"
She just nodded. "Yes ma'am."
Edea motioned to the icepack. "What happened? Did you get hit?"
"Heh, I think 'hit' is an understatement." She removed the pack to reveal a scar running from above her left eye, down the bridge of her nose, ending close to her right eye..very similar to Seifer's. Which immediately made her think of Silvur...and after she studied the young lady for a few moments, she realized that was exactly who she was talking to. She slowly leaned in closer and whispered. "Silvur?"
She jumped in surprise, nearly falling backwards, but managed to regain her balance. Silvur looked up at Edea, then whispered. "How did you know? I mean..the other's..they didn't.."
Edea sighed, then smiled. "Calm down, my child. I'm not the only one who suspected it was you. Rinoa told me she thought it was you after we got in here. And from the way you talked to my husband and Squall, I started to believe her." She gave a small chuckle. "You and Seifer were the only one's I've known to talk to my Cid in such a manner."
That comment made Silvur smile, then she frowned. "Your not going to tell them, are you?"
"Of course not, child. I helped save your hides, so do you really think I would turn you in now?"
"Oh, guess that was kind of a dumb question, huh?"
Edea nodded. "I'm glad to know you all are doing good for yourselves here. I'm sorry things couldn't have turned out differently, but you can't change fate."
Silvur smiled. "It's not your fault Mrs. Kramer. I just wasn't ment to be a SeeD, I guess. I'm too much of a rule breaker, must run in the family."
Edea nodded. "Well, I certainly can't be calling you and the other's by your old names infront of the other's, so what are your 'undercover' names, or whatever you call them?"
Silvur laughed. "Just call them fake names. Mine is Christian Lloyd, Seifer's is William Lloyd, he's posing as my brother. Raijin's is Jay Rand, and Fujin's is Janey Lockston."
She nodded. "Okay...Christian."
Silvur laughed, and slowly stood. "Well, I'm going downstairs. Coming?"
She stood as well. "Yes, and I don't think I'm ever going to a bar again!" They both laughed and walked down the stairs. Edea was happy for the posse, what she didn't know was that, no matter what, she could never save them from their fate....their...destiny.
