Delita was getting real aggravated. It seemed he kept waking up elsewhere. At least he woke up somewhere different the Iifa Tree this time. He looked around the area and frankly was unsure of his current location.

A quick scout of the area revealed one acquaintance and one stranger. Addressing the man he knew first, he calmly replied, "It seems I have transported elsewhere once again. I can but wonder our current location."

Reno grinned at Delita and the apparently confused other man. "Well, this is Midgar! My home! I don't know how the hell we got here but I ca--"

The redhead cut himself off as Rude came running towards him, giving him a slap on the back to get him moving. "Mission accomplished," the bald man stated as they ran from a particularly enormous explosion that was growing by the second.

"Fuck yes! I knew we could do it, man! I told ya. I told ya! Now see if Tseng can fire our asses!" He laughed to his partner, coming to a stop a safe distance from the explosion once the sounds of fireworks came. Snorting and bringing his goggles down to guard his eyes, Reno grinned. "Ain't that a pretty sight. You got style... partner."

Delita watched as Reno abruptly stumbled, snorted, and grinned. He could only wonder what fate had decided to lay on him this time. At least the other man wasn't acting strange.

Turning towards Reks as he tried to ignore Reno's antics, "'Tis strange behavior even for this one. Delita Heiral pleased to make your acquaintance."

Grinning and pounding fists with Rude, Reno swung his EMR around his wrist by the strap. "This is the best day ever, man. We got through a mission without killing anyone we weren't supposed to and, look, we're both totally fine!"

Rude gave a dry laugh and Reno gasped, pointing at him. "You laughed!! Best. Day. Ever."

Blinking, and rubbing his eyes, Reno paused, trying to think what the heck had just happened. There'd been an explosion and... well, that had definitely been a memory of his... but why was he suddenly looking at Delita and some kid in a battle bra? "Uhh... the Hell just happened?"

[lionwarhero]

Delita was confused as to what had happened, yet turned towards Reks, "It would be hasty to speak of what I do not understand."

He watched as Reno was abruptly jolted back into reality. "Can you not explain what has happened as you are familiar with this place. I am pleased that you have regained control of yourself."

[flyboy_red]

"I have no damn idea... I was just... there you guys were, right, then next thing I know I'm back a good few years, doing my first successful mission over again..." Reno shook his head, sighing slightly.

"I don't know what's going on, but... if I was sent home, you two shouldn't be here." Welcoming? Pssh.

[lionwarhero]

"If we are indeed found to be in your homeland, where would you have us to go?" He turned and walked a few steps, turning to verify the correct direction was chosen, yet Midgar was not what he saw.

Rather he saw the grass covered hills of Ivalice. Seeing the two men standing before him, he was did not dare to hope of a homecoming. All of a sudden he saw Ramza and Alma come running down from the house. Alma squeeled, "Tietra, Tietra, we have been given the rest of the day free."

Spinning around, he saw his sister blowing a grass blade. He smiled as he bent down to pick one of his own to join her chorus.

"Well... damn." Reno ruffled at his red hair, vaguely wondering if everyone else was going through this crazy or if it was just them three. Probably everyone, right? Gaia was a tricky place like that.

Sighing, Reno sat down on the grass, just letting Delita play out his own memory. "The guy's going through some memory, I figure. Like I did. You're probably next, kid."

[lionwarhero]

Delita had a smile on his face that portrayed the innocence of his age. As he lay in the grass, he joined in and the four produced a nice quartet of grass blades.

His life had never been better. While he still missed his parents, they were lucky and blessed to be surrounded by such good and nice people as the Beoulve's. His attention gravitated towards his sister who was simply content. When she noticed him looking her way, she chided him "Delita, Why are you looking at me such?"

[flyboy_red]

Sighing, Reno shrugged, folding his arms on his knees. "Gaia's a hell of a place. Don't figure things are gonna stay happy for long." Reno shook his head, eying Delita as he played out whatever it was he was doing.

[lionwarhero]

Delita was still blowing on the blade as he watched his sister slowly dissipate before his very eyes. As reality slammed back upon the knight with remembrance of a sister dead, he quickly threw the grass to the ground. "We would do well to hasten our exit from a place that has such control over one's memories."
