A/N: "Sharem, this one is for you!"

Stick to Your Guns

"You know, Vince, guns are so outdated." Reno drawled, twirling his electro rod in his hands. "I mean, sure probably back in your time they were the thing, but now… well, you know."

Vincent spared Reno a glance out of the corner of his eye.

It was a month after the Kadaj Incident and ShinRa was growing again. Hopefully, they grow in the right direction this time.

The Turks were hard-pressed recruiting people for a number of different jobs. Reno got nominated to try and recruit the ex-Turk Vincent Valentine, a legend among the Turks before he disappeared many years back.

"I thought you had something you wanted to ask me." Vincent said coldly as he kept walking.

Reno had to jog slightly to keep up. "Yeah, anyway, what would you say about coming back to ShinRa? Well, the new ShinRa."

"No."

"Why not?" Reno almost whined. "You'd probably be put up in the higher ups with your pervious record in the Turks, or if you didn't want to return to the Turks, which I don't see why not, you can do something else. And just think you can get a better weapon than that gun. Sure it might be good now, but later you'll be glad to have a rod."

"No."

"C'mon, if you just help us out I can maybe get you an electro rod, because they are so much better than guns. You can use them as bludgeoning weapons, charge them and they'll be a shock to your opponents, good to have in close quarters, while your gun can only be used as a long distance weapon."

Vincent kept walking while Reno kept talking.

"Yeah. Guns are kinda useless. Maybe on a few missions they might come in handy, but for everything else they're just…" Reno trailed off. Vincent had stopped walking and had Death Penalty press lightly against Reno's forehead. "… and that's why they're one of the better weapons you could use." He tried putting on an innocent smile, but Vincent remained unflinching.

A Turk always sticks to their guns.


A/N: "I had a little trouble with this one... I knew what I wanted but whenever I typed it out it just didn't sound right... I think I went through 4 different drafts. Anyway, to me it seems a little off or rushed or something... But I hoped you guys enjoyed it anyway. I would love to take requests! They're actually quite interesting to do..."
