My Life is Hell on Earth chap. 4

"My name is…" she paused, a hesitant look on her face. "My name's Kagali." "hmm…" Reno looked thoughtful. "Nope, never met you." She smiled hesitantly. "I guess not." "Anyway, we better get going," he said. "Wait a minute!" Yuffie said, annoyance on her face. "What's your name?" "How rude of me, my names Reno, and this is my partner Rude." He said. Rude nodded his head. "This way," He said. Yuffie nodded, walking toward him Kagali close on her heels.

-------------------------------------------------

"Are we there yet?" Yuffie complained, dragging her feet in the mud. Reno turned his head to look at her. "Do you think we are?" he asked dryly. She sighed dejectedly as Kagali muffled a laugh.

"Why don't we just take a company car?" Kagali asked, confusion in her voice. "Because that would be conspicuous," Reno drawled lightly. "'Sides, this is more fun." Yuffie glared at him while Kagali shook her head.

"Is it possible to trade in your friend?" Yuffie asked Rude. Rude simply shook his head.

Suddenly they heard tires screeching on the street ahead of them. Rude's head snapped up to look. He glanced at Reno who nodded. Suddenly Rude grabbed Kagali while Reno turned and grabbed Yuffie. "HEY!" Yuffie hollered. "PUT ME DOWN!" "Shut up," Reno growled at her. "Unless you want to get shot that is." Rude put a finger up as he headed for the corner.

Reeve sighed as he put his head on his desk. He had just been promoted to head of Urban Development and he was already itching to be out on the field again. Sighing again, he slowly started to write out his signature on the mounds of paperwork. 'Would Reeve Tuesti please come to the front desk?' He slowly stood up and made his way towards the door. 'Once again, would Reeve Tuesti please come to the front desk." "I heard you the first time," he growled at the speakers.

Once in the elevator he pressed his head against the cool glass as he looked down at Midgar. "This place could've been so much more," he said sadly.

"Hurry up, your highness," Reno said sarcastically to the now trailing Yuffie. "Wouldn't want to have to leave you behind, now would we?" Yuffie glared at his as she stepped over a pipe. "Oh I'm sure you'd just love that," She said angrily. "However, you can't, or your mission would be a failure." Suddenly his eyes lit up. "So we can leave your little bodyguard behind?" "Watch who you call a "little" bodyguard," Kagali said, "Or you might end up all over the pavement below us." "We are rather high, aren't we?" Reno said thoughtfully while looking down at the street below them, then the little rickety bridge they were walking across, then at Kagali's very pale face. "You don't look so good," Reno commented. She gave him a look that said "shut the hell up." He threw his hands up in mock defeat, making the bridge swing and Kagali throw up over the side of it. She glared at him once again.

"Why are we doing this again?" Yuffie asked. "Because you don't want your pretty little head to go BOOM from grenades." Reno said. Yuffie shot a pleading look at Rude who shrugged his shoulders. "Ah, here we are." Reno said as the girls looked up at the gigantic building in awe. "In we go then." Reno said as they finally headed through the front door…
