Chapter 1
It was an unusually bright Monday morning in Midgar, a scruffy, youthful red-haired man had just walked into his office for what he thought was going to be another gruelling day of being screamed at by his boss for not completing his week late paperwork yet. He groaned and gripped his coffee, knocking on his boss's door to signify he was there. His raven-haired boss called out after him as he walked past, this was expected by red head. "Reno, can I have a word with you for a moment?" Reno sighed, looking over to his partner, who was sniggering beneath a newspaper.
"Yes sir?" Reno peeked his head round the door of Tseng's office, only to be greeted by a blonde male in a white suit. "Oh, Vice President Shin-Ra!" Reno immediately stood straight upright with his hands behind his back. Oh GREAT! Just what I need on a Monday morning! A brat and a complete twat having a go at me. It was clear from the look on Reno's face, if he had the choice, he'd not work Mondays.
Tseng let out a small cough and gestured to a chair. "Reno, take a seat please." Reno sat down on a long leather sofa, more lounged out than a formal man should ever be. Okay, now I'm creeped out, Tseng never asks me to sit down unless he's going to hit me… "Reno, as you are almost certainly aware, there have been many attempted assassinations of my father recently." The blonde boy smirked slightly and turned his head to the side to pace back and forth across the room. "It is his wish, for me to command you from now on." If Reno's jaw were not attached properly, it would have hit the floor. "You WHAT!" Reno leant forward off his chair, placing his elbow on his knees and his hands either side of his head. Tseng rose up from his chair and walked round his desk, perching on the front of it with his arms crossed. "You will accompany Rufus wherever he goes, do whatever he tells you to, until I say so." Rufus looked directly at Reno, smirking more than he was before.
"I think, I need to go outside…" Reno walked out the office to the Turks balcony, removing a packet of cigarettes from his pants pocket. He took one out and lit it up, leaning on the railings of the balcony and looking at the floor, people looked smaller than ants. What am I going to do? That kid will drive me insane before Tseng says I can be released from his power. Damn!
Reno finished his cigarette, flicking it over the edge and leaving it to fall the 69 floors to the floor. He took one strike back indoors, and to his shock, was directly in the face of Rufus. "Are you QUITE done?" Rufus glared at Reno, then turned away before he could answer. "Come on, we need to go back to Tseng." Reno followed after Rufus and back into the dingy office. Tseng was found back at his desk looking through his paperwork once more, before looking up, placing both hands on the desk before him. "Okay, Reno, go with Rufus back to his apartment, you are also required to live with him whilst you are under his duty." WHAT! This is going to be more than insanity I'm going to be driven to, its HELL! Reno's face paled, he looked as if he was about to be sick. Rufus brushed past him and stood at the doorway. "Reno, wait downstairs at the front office for me, I have some paper work I need to sort out." Reno shrugged and walked out of the Turks Unit and into the Elevator, pressing the ground floor button.
Reno ran a hand through his firey red hair and wandered out of the elevator. May as well go have a smoke while I'm waiting I guess. He walked across the main hall of the Shin-Ra building, shoes tapping on the perfectly buffed marble floor. "Excuse me. Sir! Are you the Turk who has been assigned to the Vice President?" Reno stopped in his tracks and span round with somewhat of a gracious move. Stood before him was a young lady he saw every day neck high in paper work and orders. She was the desk lady, raven haired and most likely in her early 20's. Reno let a grin escape his fragile form. This jobs starting to look up! He admired the ladys attire. A short red dress, knee high leather boots and a black cotton coat. "Why yes, I am, whats it to you young lady?" Reno couldn't stop looking at her, her skin was so pale and pefect, her legs so smooth.
"Um.. Rufus asked me to keep you company while he sorts some things out. Is that okay with you?" She itched the back of her neck and tilted her head to one side. Reno, still grinning, stopped admiring her body, turned around and started walking towards the entrance. "Sure, just so long as you don't ming smokers." The girl giggled and ran up beside him, some of her hair falling into her face as she did so.
"I'm sorry but Mr. Rufus has asked me to prohibit you from leaving the building for the time being." Reno stopped dead and looked at her with his pale green eyes, not moving a muscle in his body. He was so still, it could be beleived even his heart wasnt pumping and he slid into a standing coma. "You are kidding, right?" The lady rose her eyebrows up and pushed her hair back in attempt to neaten it up into a rough bun. She bit her lip and said, "I'm sorry, but Mr. Rufus is quite specific on how he wants his employees to act. Please come join me at my desk, we can talk more there."
Reno perched on the end of her desk while the lady clattered away on her computer with more speed than a fox hunting a rabbit. "So... What is your name?" The lady looked up at him, taking her hands away from the computer and placing them in her lap. "Its Meady, its a silly name though, so most just call me Di." She leant back on her chair a little, obviously not feeling as uptight now Reno knew her name.
"Mines Reno. I see you nearly every morning carrying a bulk load of papers around. Is that your job?" Di crossed her arms and frowned slightly.
"Not quite. I mostly help keep things tidy for everyone, I'm a bit of an errand girl really."
Three hours past and Reno and Di were still chatting on about senseless nonsense, when the phone rang at the office. Di lept up out her chair and took it into her grasp. Putting it to her ear she said softly. "Hello, Shin-Ra company front office, how can I help? ... Oh hello Mr R... So you want him there straight away? ... Okay I'll tell him!" She put the phone back in its holder on the wall and turned to Rufus. "The Vice President wishes for you to go to his office and pick him up." Reno sniggered. What?Theprecious prince hasn't been taught to use the elevator yet or summat?He walked round to Di and smiled, shaking her hand warmly.
"Well, I best be off before he has a tantrum. Was nice hanging out with you. Better than that silent Sonovabitch Rude." Di giggled, covering her mouth with the hand that wasn't being shook by Reno. "I'll see you around." With this she sat back at her desk and began typing frantically again. Reno smirked, walking back over to the glass elevator from wence he came.
Di:That it for now folks!
Vics: Shut... up... -whack-
Tseng: Thats just mean!
Vics:-Growls-
Tseng:Eek...Sorryy!Don't eat me!
