Vega went outside when she realized Sephiroth wasn't inside. Looking up into the sky, she recognized the figure there as Sephiroth. Since Elena's capture, Vega kept her weapons with her at all time. The red-head knew Sephiroth would be fine on his own but to be on the safe side, Vega headed towards the tram-station.

She wasn't able to fly, so she had to travel the regular way. And with the surround areas empty, there wasn't much to worry about. Vega just felt the need to stick by Sephiroth, assuring them both that no one else was gone. And Vega couldn't just sit around feeling useless for the day.

It had taken longer than Sephiroth had anticipated; this task to restart a simple ropeway but it seemed that most of the power had been cut to the whole park bar the emergency lighting. He'd had to rig the energy for the ropeway up to the power that the emergency lighting ran off of, no small feat considering he wasn't an expert electrician and the generator he'd had to mess with wasn't ideal either. Intelligence won out though and with an impatient flick of the main switch in the small booth the confident feeling of success was soon returned. Sephiroth allowed a small smile to pull at the corners of his mouth as the doors to the tramcar slid open, then closed a few seconds later before beginning it's slow descent to North Corel below.

He wondered if the booth on the ground would need it's own operator, but he had every confidence that Vega would allocate someone suitably loyal to that particular responsibility if it was realized that it would be needed.

It's okay, LJ hates me

Vega watched the tram make a steady way down from Gold Saucer. There were a couple people stirring in town so she quickly found someone to take the spot at the controls when the tram finally made it to them before climbing on board. She nodded to the civilian and felt the tram jerk forward slightly before smoothly heading up. It felt like it took longer than it had back when she used to visit but Vega felt sure that was just her imagination.

When it finally came to a stop, she jumped out and looked towards Sephiroth and brushed her hair aside.

"Ready to go."

[sephiroth_san]

Sure enough, the tramcar made it to the bottom if a bit slower than would be appreciated. Not only that but within a few minutes it was loaded with a few people and the mechanism at on the ground level was operated and it began it's steady but slowed ascent back to the entrance level platform. Sephiroth wondered for a moment if perhaps Vega had caught the thought of his from all those many feet below.

Good Job He forced a thought outward, down a link he imagined would be there but unproven, untested and therefore quite possibly just a figment of his imagination at this early stage. It's not like he'd spent as much time with Vega as he had with Elena. For a bond to be founded? Mother hadn't chosen her?He didn't even have to cast much of a look at one of the civilians that had hopped out of the tramcar to get them to move into the control booth from which he'd emerged. Keen eyes watched Vega jump out of the tramcar and shift red hair out of her eyes as he approached the tramcar docking area and offered a small nod to her comment. He

"Two or three years ago, I spent a lot of time gambling." Vega said after a few moments thought. Had it been that long, or more recently? No, she was sure it had been a couple years since she last visited properly. Still, Gold saucer never changed, not that she had even noticed when she visited.

"Most of the layout should be the same though, so we won't have any problems finding our way." Vega said confidently. Gold Saucer had a pretty straightforward way of getting from place to place. Not the most comfortable way but still pretty plain to find your way.

[sephiroth_san]

Gambling. Now there was something he'd never have guessed. Sephiroth averted his gaze back to the entrance to the theme park and started to approach it. Leather and silver hair swayed with each movement just as it should do.

He paused for a moment beside the entry gates to look over a map attached to a ticket office wall. Taking in how to access each area but, more importantly which area would logically hold the access lift that was needed.

As Vega got into range behind him, he spoke once more just as she'd stepped close enough to hear.

"I wouldn't want to have to search the whole park, just to find an access lift. The arcade level seems logical. Gambling types tend to be the less-friendly, but check it's position against the trunk, if you like of this giant gold tree. Doesn't seem to warrant a hidden lift shaft."

Sorry, internet got held hostage for a little while

[vegashadow]

Vega kept a couple feet behind Sephiroth and listened as she looked over the map. That's right, that was probably the last place anyone would look for a hidden shaft. What trouble could start in an arcade, why would anyone there try to get to the prison?

"You're right. And part of Wonder Square has been under construction for some time. We could possibly find something there."

[sephiroth_san]

"Hm." Sephiroth uttered in agreement as he headed toward the nearest entry gate, vaulting over the barrier closed usually against those without a ticket. Closed against all of the public now, but not against them. He could go anywhere on the Planet and wasn't about to let a little public gate stunt this notion.

He waited for Vega to follow before adding. "I hope the chutes work without power."

[vegashadow]

Vega followed him, a quick jump over the gates, and glanced around. Even if the chutes didn't work without power, they could find another solution. A spell might be to much but with enough man power-

"Depending on how many go down, we could rig something of a dumbwaiter. That way, whether there's power or not, we can get up and down without to many problems." Vega said.

"There's plenty around the park that we can use for it."

[sephiroth_san]

Sephiroth wasn't entirely sure they were on the same track, but instantly caught on that Vega was perhaps referring to the lift shaft once they had found it.

The pair of them swept into the first lobby room, which connected via all the various slide-like chutes to all the other parts of the park. Sephiroth caught a quick glance around the room before following the "Chocobo" word boldly stated on the floor towards it's ominous black hole. That would be the Wonder square right? Where they held the races...It all looked ever so eerie with only the emergency lighting on. Bright yellows, pinks and blues dimmed to sickly shades in the dim lighting. Dark chutes appeared all the more menacing. To think they'd have to jump into one of them shortly, Sephiroth didn't find desirable at all. His initial plan to simply fly down to the base of this strange structure and work his way back up with his army to-be seemed entirely more sensible right in that second
