Chapter IV
Reeve yawned as he typed more of the seemingly endless program that formed Cait Sith's brain. He was trying to reprogram it to work without having to use a remote link. When he was spying for Shinra... and later for AVALANCHE... the remote link was crucial, but if Cait could function on it's own it could be a great asset if AVALANCHE was ever needed again.
Besides it was the perfect excuse to get a break from the new company. After ShinRa's fall and the permanant closure of all Mako reactors there was no one to supply energy to the world. ShinRa had of course wiped out all competion early on to gain the monopoly. It was now his job to find and provide alternate and safer methods to provide electricity to replace the loss of mako power.
Surprisingly enough Reno, Rude, and Elena had voluntered to help with the new corperation. Well it wasn't that surprising really, now that the Turks were disbanded the three really didn't have anything to return too.
Suddenly there was a flash of silver light. When the light was gone there was a young woman where it had been. She apeared to be around her late teens to early twenties. She had long blonde hair styled in a high ponytail and blue eyes framed by a pair of glasses. There was a golden whip coiled on the ground beside her.
Quistis blinked as the light vannished. Quickly she took in her suroundings. The fact that she was no longer in Balamb was obvious.
The room she was now in was a mess of mechanical parts and hundreds of papers covered in programing languages. There was a man there as well.
He had short black hair with a short beard and blue (I have never seen what color they are so I am guessing) eyes. He looked as if until recently he had been tinkering with a cat like robot.
Just then she noticed the silence of her GFs. Shiva was almost always giving her advice mainly about the best ways to juction magic, while Eden mainly acted as a peacemaker to any other GFs that might be fighting in her mind. Leviathan was ussually joking around and annoying Shiva, thus the cause of most arguments between the two. At least he got along better with Shiva than Ifrit... now that had been a nightmare! Still she would rather have those two fighting than this eerie silence.
It was then that she noticed that she was holding something. When she opened her hands several glowing orbs fell to the floor. Most were green, three were red.
"Barret, I know ShinRa treated all of you like dirt when the reacter blew. But ShinRa is gone, and this company has nothing to do with it! We don't want to exploit anyone, we just want to try to makeup for the wrongs commited by ShinRa," explained Elena when Barret questioned her motive for trying to arange a contract with Corel's Mining Industry. Using coal to provide electricity wasn't the cleanest or most effective way, but in the long run it was better than using mako energy. Still the new mayor of Corel, Barret, was very untrusting of anyone who had once worked for ShinRa, esspecially an ex-Turk like herself.
"Well, maybe you're being honest... but damn I just..." Barret stoped midsentence as a flash of silver light appeared. When it vanished there was a teenaged girl and a dog before them.
The girl apeared to be around seventeen. She had black hair and blue eyes. Beside her was a device that reminded Barret of Yuffie's shurken, only it seemed to be designed for fireing off the device it was attached to rather than being thrown. The dog was collie.
Rinoa blinked as the silver light vannished, she was vaguly aware of Angelo standing beside her. In front of her was a man and a young woman who appeared to have been in the middle of a bussiness discussion.
The man was very tall and muscular. He had black hair, dark skin, and brown eyes. Below the elbow on his right arm was a machine gun that appeared to be a substitute for the missing hand.
The woman had short blonde hair and blue eyes. She apeared to be younger than the man but older than herself.
Suddenly she noticed that she could no longer feel her GF's. It felt very odd not to have Sacred and Minotaur constatly arguing in her head, she had traded the Brothers to Zell for Siren once, only to discover that her constant humming was very annoying, she soon traded back. Compared to the Brothers, Pandamona and Tonberry were quite.
Then she realized that she held something in her hands. She opened them a several glowing orbs fell to the ground; most were green, three were red.
