Part 1: Chapter 9: The First Mission

Reno stood pressed against a wall. Great. He thought. First mission with the Turks and I'm as scared as shit. He looked down at the gun he held in both hands. It was shaking like mad. He just wanted to shout and say just fucking stop shaking will you! He didn't though, he wasn't that stupid.

They had been ordered by fat man Shinra to wipe out a small terrorist group. They hadn't done anything to harm anyone yet, Shinra just wanted shot of them before they started attacking all the might powerful electric company. Reno wanted to laugh out loud at that. They were an electric company but had a science department, an army and the men in blue. They had kicked Wutai's ass to kingdom come, but all they were was an electric company. They sounded more like a government.

The red head watched as Tseng, the cool, calm collected leader, stared straight ahead at the door of the said terrorist groups' headquarters. Rude was pressed against the wall a few feet away from Tseng, gun by his side. They were both stood about hundred feet away from Reno. Adrienne was back at Shinra HQ. Tseng had decided on just him, Reno an Rude for this mission. Addy pouted, but she got over it and ran off to bug Elena. Reno looked back at the gun, still shaking in his hands.

"GO!" He heard the voice of Tseng yell as both him and Rude levelled their guns and started shooting. Reno took a deep breath and jumped around from behind the wall. His gun pointing at his first target. He pulled the trigger. The bullet went clean through the man's head. The guy crashed to the floor with a sickening thud. Luckily for Reno, Tseng and Rude has taken care of the rest of the group. Reno stared at the body. He'd shot many people for even less than what this man had done, why was it bothering him so much? He looked at the gun again. His hands had stop trembling. He suddenly realised why it was bothering him. He felt no guilt what so ever.

When he had shot people for money in the slums, he always felt guilt tugging at the bottom of his stomach. It was a feeling Reno had gotten used to over the years. He learned to live with it. He knew it was either shot people for money or whore himself out. There was no way in hell he would lower himself to being a whore. He felt a hand on his shoulder. He turned his head to see Tseng. The man smiled briefly at him.

"You did well." He gave him another pat on the back and started to walk away. Reno took another look at the man laid out on the floor.

"Sucked being you didn't it?" He said to the corpse as he spun on his heels and walked away.

Adrienne was walking back to the Turks Office after bugging Elena all afternoon, moaning about how she hadn't been taken on a mission they had gone on. She wasn't exactly bothered anymore. Talking to Elena had calmed her down considerable. Walking past the Office door of her mother's room. She stopped. She could hear talking inside the room. Frowning, she walked closer to the door. She frowned more as she realised the man inside was Heidegger.

"You had no problem being my whore six months ago, what changed your mind, you slag?" No mistake about who's voice that had been. Heidegger's. Addy's eyes went wide. Her mother wouldn't do anything like that, even though she acted like it half the time.

"Yeah well, I'm not putting up with your bastard ways anymore." Scarlet's voice spat back.

"What changed?"

"I woke up." A hand slammed on the desk.

"I could slap some sense into you." Heidegger growled.

"I'm not being raped by you for the next six months of my life!"

"You bloody enjoyed and you know it."

"Like hell I did!" There was a hand slapping against flesh. Addy had heard enough. She wasn't going to let a bastard like him treat her mother like that. She opened the door sharply. Heidegger turned around.

"What do you want, Turk?" He spat at the girl.

"Addy just go..." Scarlet whispered.

"I want you to leave her alone." Adrienne told the big man, in a uncertain voice. It had just come to mind that the guy in front of her could probably sack her in an instant.

"And what are you going to do about it?" Heidegger scoffed as he walked closer to the girl.

"Leave her alone!" Scarlet shouted across the room. The fat man took no heed. He glared at the girl in front of him.

"I'll kick the shit of you that's what!" Addy spat. She had enough, no matter what happened to her job, she wasn't going to let her mum down. Heidegger laughed in his horse like style he was known for.

"A little girl like you? Don't make me laugh." He took a step closer to her. Without thinking about it, Adrienne threw her fist at the large man. It connected with his stomach. He fell back against the wall, holding his abdomen. She never let him recover. Slamming her foot into his chest, Heidegger slammed against the wall again. Addy smashed her hand into his face. He recoiled, his head hitting the wall. Blood started dripping down his cheek. She grabbed his collar.

"I wouldn't go calling me a little girl." Addy tighten her grip a little more. "Just leave her alone, and I'll stop." The big man nodded. Addy let go, leaving the man to stumble to his feet. He staggered out of the room. Addy took another look at her mother, then walked out the room, not looking back.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Who's this girl again?" Reno asked his superior. Addy was walking next to the red head. They had gone back for her to allow her to be on the mission.

"Aeris Gainsborough. Professor Hojo wants her." Tseng answered in reply.

"Why's the creep want her?" Reno asked before he thought.

"Think about it Reno." Tseng said impatiently. The red head was silent for a couple of minutes.

"Ew! The sick twisted freak." Reno screeched. Addy looked at him.

"You're making yourself sound like a girl."

"Am not!" He whined.

"You're proving her point Reno." Rude muttered.

"Don't you side with her Rude."

"Who's her? The cat's mother?" She snapped. Reno just looked at her.

"We're nearly here so be quiet." Tseng responded. They all instantly shut up. There was something about Tseng that made you want to do what he told you. If he said jump of a cliff, you would probably ask which cliff, when and how did he want you to land. Tseng walked over the door. He was just about to knock when Reno interrupted him.

"You're just gonna knock on the door?"

"Yes. We're not forcing her to come, so we can't kidnap her."

"And the point of this mission is?" Reno asked sarcastically. Tseng chuckled.

"We're just proving we tried to persuade her to come." He told him. Reno scratched his head.

"I don't get it."

"Don't worry. I've been in this game longer than you and I still don't get it." Tseng went to knock then stopped again. "I'll let you do it Reno." Reno cocked one eye brow up but knocked anyway.

"We've come to talk to Aeris." He said as a woman with brown hair opened the door. A rolling pin emerged from the door and hit the Turk around the head. The door slammed shut again. Reno turned around to look at his acquaintances. "Tseng, you bastard! You knew she was gonna do that." He shouted, rubbing his head.

"C'mon Reno. I think I'd better buy you a drink." Tseng said as he dragged the red head Turk away from the house and to a bar.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Adrienne Arishima now a Turk, daughter to Scarlet Arishima, Head of the Weapons Department. Just the two of them. It wasn't always like this. She remembered her father. He was just a worker in the Weapons Department. Addy liked to think her mother and father loved each other, but they didn't. They drifted apart, her father left when she was fourteen, she hadn't seen him since.

She stared at her drink. Her thoughts going back to her mother. Why was she letting fat bastard do that to her? She looked to Reno, then looked back at her drink. Gulping down the rest of the contents, she slammed it down.

"Are you ok?" Reno asked. She shook her head.

"I kicked the shit of Heidegger." Reno's eyes went widen. "Well, he was being sleezy to my mum. She's been his whore for the last six months." Reno went quiet. "You knew didn't you?" She said with a deadly tone.

"Look, I didn't want to upset you..."

"I don't give a shit! You knew and you didn't tell me?" Addy yelled at him. Reno looked to the floor.

"She said she'd sort it out........... I took her word for it. I didn't want to upset you."

"Well tough. You already did." She spat at him and walked away.
