#L005 Phone Call to Kira + Action Post

Jan 10, 2009 13:46

((This is backdated a bit taking place during this.))

[The ringtone sounds, servicing both as a lifeline and an alternative focus to keep Lazard from losing it. Hopefully Kira would pick up...]

[Kira jumped slightly, startled from her reverie as her phone rang in her pocket. Glancing at the caller ID, she picked up immediately.]

Director?

[Lazard doesn't answer, but a tinny conversation can be heard between him and someone else.]

--ient, then what are you, Jenova? A spurned experiment lurking in the ruins of Midgar?

Ah, we are much more than that. Perhaps you should do some research... or Hojo will know. Perhaps... or he might have been too consumed with his love for experimentation to figure it out.

[A large burst of static rips through the sound and when it clears Lazard's speaking. His voice is tight with effort.]

--o die in the shadow of the ShinRa Building, ha...haha. What are y-you...going to do?

[Kira froze as she heard the name Jenova again. The voice that spoke after him nearly made her drop the phone - after only hearing the voice in her head, hearing Jenova speaking aloud, even through a bad phone connection, was frightening. If the...whatever she was...had a body and was communicating with Lazard...

Her train of thought derailed abruptly as Lazard spoke again. There was pain in his voice; she had heard that strained way of speaking a million times before.]

Director, where are you!?

[As she spoke into the phone, she ran across the apartment, digging through her bag for her materia bracer and grabbing the weapon that lay beside it. If he was in Midgar, she could get to him quickly enough on her chocobo, stabled near the apartment building... The WRO soldiers stationed near the building could keep Hojo safe for a short while.]

You will not die here, that we guarantee. You will suffer as our cells infest you, but death is far from you. We have our uses of you. We will hunt. We will finish what we came here to do so long ago. The time comes soon.

[It took Lazard some time to lift the phone up and talk after Jenova's parting words.]

Kira? I... The ShinRa Building... Send someone. I'll...be going into shock soon.

Well, I'm a little odd, I guess.

[Supporting him as he stood, she led the way back to her chocobo.] There should be a place set up in Edge, possibly with the WRO...if not, I could put you up in the cafe, I think.

[ooc: So sorry about the late and lame reply, school started again and the muse decided to die on me for some reason...]

[He started at the mention of the WRO. Turning his attention to his phone, he sent off a quick message to Reeve. What sort of world had he been brought back to? Things never seemed to stop getting worse. Pushing his glasses on more firmly--he almost missed being an Angeal clone simply for the fact it had improved his eyesight--he let go a breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding and eyed Kira's chocobo.]

The refuge camp isn't a safe place at this time. I couldn't impose--I'll figure something out. Once we get out of here.

[He paused, suddenly looking at Kira more closely than he had as of yet--it'd been some time since he'd last seen her. She still looked as dependable as she ever had--and still a fighter ( ... )
