Chapter 1

She stood in the middle of the city of Midgar trying to make money so she could live, "Will anyone buy a flower? Please buy a flower for one gil." She knew no one was going to buy a flower, so why should she even try. "This isn't getting anywhere." She sighed. But she still smiled.

"Is this the girl?" a certain red head asked his partner

"I think so, I don't know what Shin-Ra sees in her though, and she looks like a bag of bones to me."

"Rude, who really does know what Shin-Ra ever thinks?" Reno sighed and looked back at the girl. "Who ever she is, she must be something special. Hey, how are we supposed to get her?"

Rude thought for a moment then shook his head, "I guess we run up behind her and grab her."

"Or we can just knock her out and sling her over your shoulder." The red head retorted

Aeris noticed two men crouched behind trashcans arguing about something.

"Uh." Aeris' voice was barely heard

"Um, excuse me." The two still bickered

"HEY! I'M TALKING TO YOU!" She turned back to her sweet normal self, leaving the other two shocked as all get out.

"Now then. Would you like to buy a flower?" She innocently smiled

Reno and Rude turned to each other and whispered, "or maybe we can just buy a flower." They nodded in agreement and reached in their pockets to get any loose Gil. Together they scrounged up three Gil. "Man, we are WAY underpaid." Reno sighed as he handed the Gil to Aeris.

"What seems to be the problem? Why are you two bickering?"

"Well, see, there is a certain person we need to get and this certain person, I don't think, would want to come with us, but see, we don't know how to get this certain person to come with us so we are stuck behind these trash cans not knowing how to get this certain person to come with us." Reno said taking a big breath when he finished

Aeris and Rude just stared at Reno. "How bout you ask this certain person?" Aeris chirped happily. Reno grabbed Rude and started to whisper. They both nodded but this time Reno knocked his head into Rude's. Rude smacked Reno upside his head and turned to Aeris.

"You are the certain person we need. You have been invited by President Shin-Ra personally to join SOLDIER." Aeris looked confused in a way but then turned on her heel to walk away

"Listen lady, if you don't come with us, we will loose our job." Reno angrily stood up a grabbed her by her arm

Aeris smashed her basket of flowers on Reno's head and dashed off. She ran as fast as she could, the Turks close at her heels. She ran to the train station hoping to be able to board it before the Turks could. She jumped on and made her way to the front of the train. Reno and Rude both hopped on at the same time and got stuck in the doorway. They unstuck themselves and ran after Aeris. The train reached the ID search point and she was scared, sort of. Before the search light came to her, she jumped off the train. Reno sighed as he grabbed Rude and jumped off the train as well. She made her way into sector six, which was where she lived; she quickly made her way past her house and on to Wall Market. Reno and Rude stopped at the entrance and shook their heads, not wanting to go in there, but it was for their job, so they went in. Aeris ran all the way to the Don's mansion and let herself in. Reno couldn't believe she was brave enough to actually GO into the mansion.

She headed up the stairs and went into Don Coreno's 'office' and shut the door. She ran into the bed room to see if there was another way out. To her disadvantage the Don was busy with a 'customer.'

"Hey babe, wanna make it a three way?" the Don said invitingly

"EWWW!GROSS." Aeris went over to the Don and slapped him many times.

"That's enough!" Don pulled the lever and caused Aeris to fall into the sewer. She stood up and made her way out of the sewer

"Did you see a-…?" Rude was cut off when Don pointed to the big hole in the ground, "thanks." He motioned for Reno to follow him. They too ended up in the sewers.

"GROSS! AHHH." Reno cried. He didn't want to make his suit look bad, oh well.

"Suck it up Reno, we gotta find the girl." They went through they sewer and climbed out. They ended up in the middle of the Train Graveyard.

"Why are we here? I heard this place is haunted." Reno gasped as a cold gust of wind past him.

"Reno, calm down. The only thing to fear more than this is Shin-Ra's wrath, now pull it together."

The two of them had no idea where the girl went; they stood in the middle of the place and gathered their thoughts.

"Rude, stop touching me." Reno said annoyed

"I didn't touch you."

"Yes you did," Reno grabbed the hand on his shoulder to show Rude, even though there was no body attached to it, "look your hand is right here." Reno gulped when he saw the rotting arm in his hand. He slowly turned around and his face met an angry, stinky, rotting face. He slapped Rude's back with the rotting arm.

"What is it now?"

"…eh, he he, (gulp), eh." Rude turned around and looked at the face Reno saw. His glasses slipped off his nose a bit.

"RUUUNNN!" Rude shouted. "AHHH!" The two of them bolted off in some direction, it was a good thing too because they ran straight into the girl.

"Gotcha!" Reno put a substance under her nose to breathe in and caught her when she fell.

Reno flipped the girl over his shoulder, "maybe well get a raise."

"Don't count on it."
