Earth
I woke up very, very slowly, and cursed at the headache that I was developing. It felt like I had a Tonberry stabbing me between the eyes.
I tried to move and couldn't. Dammit. Someone had tied me up.
Oh yeah... Slavers, in that last town. We'd started fighting them, but Cloud and Vincent were still distracted by what we'd read in Hojo's files, and I was still distracted because they were upset. So I'm not really sure where Vinnie and Cloud were at when the flat of a sword came down on my head.
As a matter of fact...I was still finding Hojo's files distracting... I could still see them with my eyes closed...
Addition of Jenova Cells
With the addition of Jenova cells to the body, esp. one already strengthened by Mako, the body will adjust by balancing blood, Mako and Jenova, resulting in increased strength and stamina and a longer lifespan. Strength, as suggested by Specimens V, Z, and C, ranges from a 1.5 increase to a 6.0 increase. Stamina is the same, excepting that Specimen Z exhibited a 9.0 increase in stamina. It is impossible to know at the moment what the lifespan increase is, however, based on my own research and results received from Specimen V, it is likely that lifespan spans well out over a thousand years. Carriers of the Jenova cells may even be immortal...
There had been more after that, but that was the important part. Understandably, neither Cloud nor Vinnie was too happy about finding out they were immortal, or at least incredibly long-lived.
Well, at least Red'll appreciate the company...I slit my eyes open and took inventory. I was trussed up pretty good- but then, these guys knew who I was, that I was AVALANCHE, a ninja, and a former princess of Wutai to boot. Now that they'd caught me, they wouldn't be taking any chances.
Though I did have to wonder if they knew I was a former princess and not a current one.
Of course, their buyer would have to know all that too, and if he...or she, for that matter...still wanted their hands on me, I was in a great deal of danger.
We were near Mideel. We had to be- I could see a pool of the Lifestream glowing nearby.
That, combined with the reports dancing through my head, gave me an idea.
I rolled into the Lifestream.
