Falna was overlooking the various targets that could be next after the success that was CR Unit 01.
An interesting way of getting them to formally approve of her work and the usefulness of it as well. Since they have recovered all the materia that was recently stolen and were well on their way to have the rest transported by to Midgar from Wutai.
Whatever CR Unit 01's human self had stashed there was being recovered and shipped back through the agent that worked there secretly after all.
Agents that were not getting into the structure that Yuffie had made and/or work for to monitor them closely as Flana was more interested in seeing if there were any useful targets there as well.
As a result of having gone through all of the new possible targets, the one decided on to be CR Unit 02 having been decided as Falna closed the files she was looking through.
The next target was decided on to be Tifa Lockhart. A small business owner in Slums of Sector Seven. Runs a bar that is believed to be the meeting place and/or base of a rebel faction. Tifa herself is thought to be a member or sympathizer of the group calling themselves Avalanche
Though whether or not they have any connection to the original is unknown which is why Tifa Lockhart was being targeted as the next subject for the CR line. To be used as a spy to learn all she can about what's going on there.
If she was a member then it is possible that she could be part of the leadership as the group is stated to be rather small at its core. Though if she is merely a sympathizer then it would be possible to have her get into the core after her conversion into CR Unit to monitor them as well.
Falna had no means of crushing them as she had her own plans after all which she got approved along with her ability to continue and expand her project after the success of CR Unit 01.
Though getting to her was going to be a slight problem since she was not only well known as the owner of her own bar the Seventh Heaven but medical documents state she is a student of Zangan.
Though not very famous or well known, the man is traveled enough to have seen crisscross the globe. Having supposed hundred plus students across with Tifa merely being one of them.
One that was saved through him bringing her all the way to Midgar for treatment from a sword slash that should have killed her well before she arrived. Thus it was easy to find her medical records as cases like her tend to stand out.
This connection and training by Zangan making so Falna can not just abduct her like they could the average person. She could fight off most of their soldiers that were kept in that area if she wanted to.
She was also known to fight the monster with just her fist. A feat that in itself caught their interest as well. This was another reason she was targeted as well for the CR line.
Though that all lead back to the question of how to get to her as it would be foolish to attempt to capture her with force. They will only get one shot and they best not miss.
However, there was another way to get to come to them of her own free will. It was discovered while she owned her own business, she did not have the land it was on. So they could get to her through her landlord.
Sure enough, when the appointed time came Tifa arrived alone as she was seemingly used to meeting her landlord in places away from normally crowded areas of the slums.
This just added to the suspicions that were floating around her as it was clear the members of the group calling themselves Alvanche met there formally. Not just that they used bars as a place to visit because they want to drink and what not.
Though at the moment the worse they had done was post flyers that were annoying the people. Other than that they were more like neighborhood watch or something. Taking on odd jobs here and there along with various maintenance related roles.
"Who are you as you are not the landlord" Tifa exclaims
"New arrangement as you now work for me. Your bar is now the mind is that understood" she told though she did end with a clicking sound.
Tifa then was going to just flat out refuse to hand over her bar. It was hers after all however what came out of her mouth shocked her.
"Sure whatever you say" she replied out loud.
Then her eyes caught on to the sight on her right hand as there was strange grey materia working through her and it was spreading down her arm
"When I said you bar is mine I meant because you are now mine. Thus what yours is mine" Falna informed her
Tifa struggled to move as the materia continued to work its way through her body as the reason she could not move was that grey metallic substance was coating her body as it did so.
Felt her heart stop and her inability to take in the air anymore as her lungs were rendered inactive. Tifa was in panic mode but then the process reach her head causing all her thought to cease she just stood there motionless.
The process then went about completing itself as Tifa Lockhart ceased to be as she now merely became CR Unit 02. The second in the CR line of robots. That merely had the memories and personality of Tifa stored in their memory banks
CR Unit 02 was no longer Tifa and her loyalties were automatically set to follow Falna's commands and orders.
Thus CR Unit 02 gave Falna everything she wanted to know about the rebel fraction she belong to and even things that Tifa herself had forgotten or did not recall properly were now known to Falna.
All Falna had to do was ask and CR Unit 02 would tell her anything she wanted to know about Tifa Lockhart.
