Tseng sighed, where was Reno anyway, he'd been gone about ten minutes already, unless…he was up to something. His head gave a twinge of pain, the usual migraine was on its way and he was out of pain-killers.
Reno grinned smugly, his plan was full-proof, one of his many contacts had come through for him and her name was phoenix (AN: Real name…you'll just have to guess now won't you, Reno doesn't even know) and was also Rufus new bodyguard and had complete security access to everywhere to do with Shinra.
Even though she would warn Rufus, he was good enough not to say to anyone else, especially not the other Turks, he was wanting a laugh anyway and Reno fulfilled that quite well, as long as he didn't destroy the building in the process.
The next day…
Reno made out a checklist in his head while entering the Turk coffee lounge,
Truth serum in water supply check
Elena check
Rude check
Tseng check
Will check
EMR check and re-check
Tape recorder check…mwahahaha
'Mental note to self…drink only bottled water.' He chided himself, not wanting to give out any material that may prove as blackmail, even Reno (AN: believe it or not) has a sense of pride with how he acts.
"So how are we this morning?" Reno asked with his customary ebil smirk in place, Tseng looked up in surprise.
"You're…on time, what's wrong?" he asked with an awestruck look on his face soon followed with suspicion, "or rather what are you up to?"
Reno gave a look of mock hurt, pretending to wipe a tear away from his eye.
"I'm insulted, me standing here, thinking of my bestest friends in the world and you think I'm up to something." He said in an indignant voice that even through the sarcasm touched Elena.
"Look Reno, even though you are an annoying asshole that I had a crush on for a while after I started the Turks with several mental problems that could be probably cured by therapy, we still want you around." She said calmly not realising what'd came out of her mouth until she saw Reno break down into hysterical laughter on the floor.
Slowly her hands went to her mouth, too shocked to do anything else, Rude and Tseng just gaped at the blonde girl, Reno sat up panting,
"I thought…you liked…Tseng," he managed to get out between gasps.
"I do, right now I want to get into bed with-" suddenly she yelped, completely covering her mouth and running out of the room, beaming crimson.
Reno fell back into laughter on the floor, not even wanting to look at the other two Turks for fear of literally dissolving into 'side-splitting' laughter. If he had've seen the looks, which may I add were a priceless Kodak moment, he would've seen Tseng who was purely stunned with his own blush to rival Reno's hair, meanwhile Rude was hiding his amusement rather well although he could swear that his lungs might explode with the pressure currently on them.
The read-head slowly got himself out of the fit of laughter, he got up still clutching his sides and virtually gasping for air.
"Damn that was freakin hilarious," he said collapsing on the now free seat beside Tseng, then turning to the still dazed Turk.
"Reno, why do I get the sneaking suspicion that you were the cause of all this," he said reaching for his coffee and polishing the rest of it off before Reno answered, however he was greeted with a bemused expression from the second-in-command.
"Wait…that wasn't me back there, for once in my life I'm…I'm innocent." Reno lied convincingly and doing very well by the looks of it. For all colour had drained from the wutaiian man's face, the same with Rude, Tseng was the first to act.
"Oh no please let this be a bad dream," he said before slapping himself across the face, the other Turks flinched, their boss may have just lost it.
And with that Tseng left the room, in some hope that this all was just a nightmare.
"Y'think he's just not sleeping?" Reno said to the Bald Turk,
"Something like that," Rude sighed, completely sobered from the 'confession'.
"Got any advice?"
"When I can't sleep a stuffed animal usually helps,"
"You've got a stuffed animal!" Reno exclaimed in surprise.
"Yeah, his name is nouchi-chan…shit," Rude said before clamping a hand over his mouth and leaving the room.
Reno sat back on the seat and drew a tally in mid-air.
RENO: 2
EVERYONE ELSE: 0
