A/N: Here's Chapter 9 for everyone and I have decided to make the story longer than planned. For it now has 15 chapters and I'm writing up chapter 16 XD so screw the old plan LOL! Okay shout out time!

To Aeriths-Rain: I do hate Scarlet. She isn't a very likable character in my opinion. I was laughing so hard during the slapping session with Tifa on the mako cannon, because really, Tifa shouldn't have to waste her time with a like her...

To LastTrojanNight: I love the soundtrack! XD I got it for Christmas and listen to it everyday! LOL! The theme that they play the Piano version to is called Fighting... If you listen to the random battle music enough... or as much as I have, you would notice it's the same song. And the boss fight theme in the game is what they played in the movie during the battle with Bahamut in AC XD dude! That version is kick ass! I love the Highway scene music though! OMG! I can't single out Black Water! Some serious E. Guitar in that and it rocks!

And to everyone else, thanks for the reviews! They were awesome! And the explosion is coming soon and all I have to say is that it's gonna be big! XD R&R Please! LOVE YA!

Disclaimer: Blah, blah, blah… we know I don't own it so why can't I stop typing these things? Oh, well... best not to complain.

Chapter 9: Beginning Of The Plan

The 4 Turks up and left the lounge after hearing the said gunshot and headed for Rufus' office. Tseng opened the door cautiously, looking upon Heidegger's body on the floor with a bullet square between the eyes.

"Ohh... That had to hurt..." Reno said sarcastically, giving the body a nudge with his foot. Seriously, the man was the size of a Volkswagen Beetle and quite possibly weighed that much as well.

"You think it's dead?" Reno continued, nudging Heidegger's body. It spasmed, making him jump at least a foot in the air, before the eyes rolled into the back of his head.

"Yes, Reno. He is very much dead." Tseng observed the body with caution.

"Do you think they'll be able to dig a big enough grave for him or even make a coffin to fit his cow body?" Reno continued the questioning, while Rufus was becoming impatient. Of all things, he didn't want a decaying corpse on his office floor.

"Are you done yet, so that I could have this body removed from my office?!" He asked venomously.

"Not yet." Reno stated, touching his EMR to the corpse, thus barbecuing it.

"Best served 'Well done'." The redhead replied, as smoke rose from the body. While Tseng called the cleaning commission to dispose of Heidegger's corpse. Rufus leaned his elbow on his desk, as he waited for the cleaning crew to show up, with the Turks waiting patiently. Tseng standing beside the door, Elena on the other side. Reno and Rude took a spot next to each of them. Once the body was removed, Rufus got down to business about Scarlet's removal.

"Now, Reno and I have been working on removing Scarlet. I'm sure you heard from each other about the plan." They nodded, remaining silent.

"Tseng, you will be piloting the chopper with Rude and Reno will call on the radio when the bomb is in place. With the completion of this, you will be granted with a new position since Heidegger is obviously dead. Understood?"

"Yes, sir." Tseng managed to say, hiding the surprise of his promotion that Reno had mentioned earlier.

"Elena, you will tell Scarlet that she may go and check what needs to be repaired on the cannon. But make it so that she doesn't see the lie. Understand?"

"Yes, sir" She responded.

"Good. You will be with Reno. I want to see you two come out of there alive. No questions asked. Do I make myself clear?" Rufus asked with a strict tone.

"Yes, sir." The blond and the redhead replied in unison.

"When will the plan go into action?" Tseng asked Rufus.

"I have to overlook the plans tonight, yo. So... I think it'll go into action tomorrow." Reno stated, as Rufus nodded in response.

"It's best to place this operation in action as early as possible. Scarlet could wreak havoc on us all if it is not done soon."

The Turks remained silent, not finding their place to say anything.

"One thing stands alone. Don't let anyone know of this. Do not speak of it out in the open and do not let anyone hear a single word of it. Keep Reno's door closed for today, and if anyone questions then simply tell them it's renovation. Nothing more. Understood?" Rufus asked the Turks.

"So should this plan be executed tomorrow morning?" Tseng asked.

"As soon as possible is my best advice, Tseng. You are excused." The group of 4 headed out. There was something gnawing on Reno's mind. It had something to do with the cannon and the plan, then it got him worrying.

It wasn't like him to worry, but it wouldn't let be. Maybe it had to do with the constructive style of the building... Did the 72nd floor even exist anymore? Reno looked out his office window to the ruins of Shinra Inc, then to the blue prints and back to the building. Something was obviously missing or misplaced for the plan to work. It wasn't that the whole front of Shinra Inc was missing, maybe it had to do with the inside, the way it was now? Reno couldn't even begin to imagine what it might look like now after 2 ½ years of being deserted. It probably had Hojo's specimens running all over the place. Not to mention the electricity was most likely shot. He still couldn't figure it out. Elena knocked on his door, bringing him out of his thoughts.

"Reno, thinking really isn't your style. We're going to get some dinner in sector 6. Care to join us? It's a celebration of Tseng's promotion... Even he wouldn't mind if you were there too, y'know?"

"I know... It's just... something about the Shinra building is bugging me, yo. It's like I should already know what it is, but I don't and I think that something might interfere with the assassination." Reno said gazing out the window again.

"Why don't you tell the president, then?" Elena asked, staying in her spot by the door.

"I don't want to bother him, yo. It's already 20:50. It's late."

"It would be better to tell him now, than wait till the last minute tomorrow morning. C'mon." She grabbed his wrist and practically dragged Reno down to Rufus Shinra's office, before he left for the night. Even though most of the employees, including the president himself stayed until at least 23:30.

"Elena, what are you doing?!" Reno asked in almost hysteria as she knocked on the office door.

"You have to tell him, Reno. If it going to put a risk to our survival because we'll be the ones inside!"

"Come in!" They both heard Rufus' voice from the other side of the door.

"Now, go!" Elena opened the door, shoved Reno inside, then closed the door behind her after stepping into the office herself.

"What is it, Reno?" Rufus asked, stacking papers neatly and placing them in Manila folders. Reno swallowed hard, looking to Elena, who gave him an encouraging look.

"I... There might be something wrong with the Shinra building, boss."
