Challenge: Tseng, Sephiroth, Reno, Chocobo

"Good Morning Sephiroth," Tseng says, stepping into the boardroom and nodding to the silver haired General. Sephiroth was, thankfully, fully clothed today. Reno's encounter having been just after his after-training shower during which Zack had made off with his clothes.

"Good Morning Tseng." Sephiroth says, nodding in turn as he stares blankly at the paper clutched tightly in his hand. "If your other Turk wants to punish Zack for his stupidity tell him I gave the ok to go on ahead."

Tseng blinks, dear Shiva what has happened now. "Which other Turk? What happened?" He asks, looking fairly worried. Hopefully it wasn't another clothes theft.

"The bald one, I never bothered to learn his name. Zack apparently thought his office was a closet and put a bunch of hangers on his ceiling fan." Sephiroth says, unaware and unconcerned about the chaos that had caused. Tseng had thanked every deity he knew when he found out Rude had accidentally used washable marker on Reno's face.

"Ahhh, funny story about that, you see he thought it was Reno because Reno drew on his face earlier so in revenge he drew on him. So it all worked out in the end." Tseng says, shrugging casually. There really was no need for the real culprit to get caught.

Sephiroth blinks, his mind replaying back to couple days ago when Reno had come into his office and had faint discolored areas scribbled all over his face. A rather loud sound comes from outside the hallway; Tseng's eyes narrow.

"That sounds like a chocobo." He says, turning his head to look at the door as it slides open and a rampaging chocobo rushes in followed by a flustered Reno. Tseng and Sephiroth stare in amused horror as Reno chases the stupid bird around the room.

"Would you stand still you stupid chocobo!" Reno yells at the idiot bird which insists on running from him. Tseng decides to ask the question they both are wondering.

"Reno…" Tseng says in that deadly calm voice that tells you that he's about to use his limit break on your unlucky ass. Reno, hearing that tone halts all movement and turns to look at his boss. "Why is there a chocobo in the board room?"

"Uh…The President wants it to be our official mascot." Reno says, scratching his head sheepishly as he glares at the chocobo. The chocobo warks and tries to eat Sephiroth's hair, Tseng raises an eyebrow at his Turk. "Don't look at me, it wasn't my idea. I'm just the unfortunate soul that was dragged into it."

"I don't care where it came from or what purpose it has to serve. It had better stop trying to eat my hair or I'm going to flambé it and feed it to Zack." Sephiroth growls, yanking the length of his hair away from the stupid bird. Reno looks at it and shrugs.

"Not my Chocobo," He says, sitting down in his usual seat as Sephiroth grins and unsheathes Masamune. Needless to say there was not a board meeting that day.


There was probably a board meeting later about how Sephiroth should not slaughter innocent animals and should let President Shinra do whatever he wants in his own building. No one attended.

Thanks to all for reading and reviewing.
