Reno crouched in the corner of an unnamed employee's office, studying the map of the floor he had yanked off the wall when he had run past. He could feel the wary eyes of the office's owner on his back, but he ignored them in favor of plotting out his path. Sephiroth and Rufus were now patrolling this floor, out for his blood, and he needed to find a safe place to hide, preferably in someone else's office. This one was too scared to do much of anything, much less his work. With a sigh, Reno rolled up the map and tucked it into his belt as he dramatically rolled out of the office, heading towards the one place he had thought he would never go.

Palmer's office.

"Yo, Fatass." Palmer looked up, blinking as Reno strode into the room like he owned it. The redhead paused, blinking once as he stared at the large man. Palmer stood near his desk, a long piece of rope in one hand, and a razorblade in the other. Reno tilted his head to the side, blinking again as Palmer attempted, and succeeded at, hiding the items behind him.

"Do I even want to know what you were going to do with those?" Reno asked suspiciously, eyeing the other man like he was going to attack at any moment. Palmer gulped, looking around nervously. "N-n-n-n-nothing." He stammered out, sidling over to his desk and dropping the rope and razorblade inside without Reno seeing him.

He squared his shoulders, took a deep breath, and stared the redheaded Turk in the eye. "What brings you here? Has the President finally decided to add more to the Air and Space Program?" He paused, cheering up considerably. "Would you like some lard?" Reno looked at him like he would a bug he wanted to squash.

"Sorry, but no...." Reno managed to get out before he was suddenly yanked out of the room by a very, very angry Rufus. The Vice President dragged him down the hall, a storm cloud practically hovering over his head as he stomped towards the elevator.

"Are you taking me to Sephiroth?" Reno asked, obediently following the Vice President like a puppy.

"No." Rufus answered, all but throwing the redhead into the elevator and pressing the button for the top floor. Reno smirked, leaning against the wall.

"Then lead on."

I have bigger things planned for the next chapter, I swear.

Thanks to all for reading and reviewing.
