"How may I help you…" The secretary stumped when she saw Cloud and Tifa standing in front of her.
"We're here to see Reeve." Cloud replied monotonously.
Snapping out of her daze, the secretary started to flip through a book. Stopping and then raising an eyebrow at them, she asked, " Do you have an appointment?"
"We don't need one." Cloud stated, tired of waiting. "Just show us to Reeve's office."
The secretary obliged, for fear of being chopped into half by the menacing sword strapped on Cloud's back. They made their way through the halls with no shortage of eyes following them for they were the only ones not dressed in the standard W.R.O. uniform and Cloud's sword was another thing they stared at.
After arriving at Reeve's office, the secretary clearing off even before Tifa could thank her. The rest of the people following them went back to their work after Cloud turned around to check on Tifa.
"I guess we're here." Tifa murmured, followed by a sigh coming from Cloud.
"Let's get this over and done with." Cloud whispered as he pushed open the fogged glass door.
"I thought it might be you. Who else in the world has such gravity defying hair?" Reeve welcomed them into his office as he put down a document he was reading.
"You knew we were coming?" Tifa enquired.
"No, I just saw the shape of his hair through the door." Reeve replied coolly, motioning for them to sit down. "So, what's the matter?"
"Its like this, Tifa was recently attacked by things which I guessed were Bahamuts that weren't wiped out in the holy rain." Cloud began.
"Hmm… Actually, I've been getting similar, if you would call it, complaints from the other regions."
"Like?"
"Like Wutai and Corel."
Cloud shifted uneasily in his chair.
"Apparently there were more than we expected and they're spreading and migrating. I have sent numerous groups of armed workers to get rid of the Bahamuts but I haven't been getting any results." Reeve stated with a drop in his mood.
"I'm sorry to hear that." Tifa began. "But we haven't been seeing any of these groups around Edge at all."
"Maybe the Bahamuts were stronger than we thought."
"Who exactly were the people you sent in Reeve?" Cloud asked.
"Just a few ex- Shinra workers we managed to round up. I thought that this would be a good use for them."
"Reeve, this is getting serious. You can't just send troops attacking the Bahamuts head on! You'll never get anywhere!" Cloud was staring to get frustrated.
"I know, I know. I've already sent the Turks to investigate the source of the Bahamuts. In other words their breeding grounds." Reeve kept in composure, knowing better than to quarrel with his friends.
"The Turks?" Tifa raised an eyebrow. "What about Rufus? He agreed?"
"Rufus? We gave him an office job. He agreed that he was more suitable in the big offices than out in the harsh environment." Reeve started rubbing his temples.
"Alright then," Cloud stood up abruptly, making Tifa jump slightly in her seat. "We'll get going now. Marlene and Denzel should be on their way back from the candystore."
Tifa hastily stood up as well, clearly have forgotten about the kids from the worry of the Bahamuts. "Thanks for everything Reeve!" Tifa waved as both of them made their way out of his office.
The door swinging shut behind them with the words 'Reeve, President of W.R.O.' engraved in gold on the front.
