  "Yep. we should." The girl said, as she hurried out in front of him, unsure if he even knew his way out of here, so she would lead him on the way toward the elevators. "Um..I think I will call you Tatsu too, hee,hee. Kind of a hard name to remember.But--wait, you...you were in here for a year?! " Did she understand that correctly? "N-No way..Someone would have known you were missing, right?? No one tried to help you out all this time?! " Well, if that was true, she wasn't going to be very happy. Not like anyone would have known, but still. Avalanche should have known, shouldn't they? "...What arsonist do you mean? If you don't mind me asking.." She said as she reached up to press the button. "Here's to hopin' we have a easy way out once we get to the bottom..But, with you're skills and my camera, we should get out fine! "

My neck feels sore... But still... Tatsu Kobayashi  "Yep, just about.. I don't have any family here in Midgar, and I was pretty much arrested for deserting Shinra.. Oh yeah, that's why.." Tatsu nods, remembering the whole story. "As for the arson.. there was this one girl who came in and just started blowing stuff up with a compact bazooka. Turns out I was arrested along with her boyfriend!" he laughs. He then blinks at the elevator. This was their escape? Although maybe the girl could leave fine, his face was known. It didn't help that Hiyori had helped her get out... There were probably a few dozen guards just waiting to put a bullet in Tatsu and put some kiddie cuffs on Hiyori. "...Yer gonna help me out, huh?" Tatsu looks to her, grinning. "Kid, I dunno about you, but I've got a feeling we're gonna be best friends after this one.. Oh, hey!" The ex-Turk pressed a button. "Before we leave, I have to get something important, okay?" Th man was not about to leave without his Styx! My story ain't over yet, heh!

 Hiyori listened to him speak, the frown appearing right back on her face at his words. "Sorry to hear that..You know, um..When we get out of here, if I see my mom, I'll ask her to let you stay with us if you need a place. Or, well, there is the mansion too! But, the Holidays are comin' up and you need someone to be with.. Just don't tell her I went here. " She laughed nervously, rubbing the back of her neck. Obviously she wasn't allowed to come here, but, nothing stopped Hiyori. As much as she respected Aerith, she really didn't listen to her so much. "Now! As for them putting you in here for deserting them, well.......That just makes me soooooooo mad! I wanna cause them hell for all the time you spent in this stupid hellish place! For such a stupid reason too! "
"I don't think I know who this bazooka girl is, but that sounds kind of funny. Isn't that a super big powerful gun thing that fires a big missile? Oh, err..wait..Does that mean we should save her and her boyfriend too? I didn't hear anyone else at the cell area! "
"Of course! I'll stay with you no matter what! " Hiyori smiled, not the very best time to be happy, but hey, this was Hiyori. She was still proud she managed to get him out of the cell. "He,he..Yes! Escape buddies! " She grinned, nodding at his next comment about needing to get something first. "Oh, okay..Sure! More adventure and scoops I can get with my camera to show everyone they aren't as good as they say they were! "

My neck feels sore... But still... Tatsu Kobayashi "Christmas Time already? Geez, what else has changed..." Tatsu smirked a little. It was a bit sad, but hey, it was a good thing he'd learned. "Hmm...Yeah, except this one was a compact. She could make it easier to hold. Far as I know, those two lovebirds aren't locked up.." Then he had to wonder. What was this little girl doig here anyway? With a camera, snapping incriminating photos no less. Why was she anti-Shinra? "Hmm...Hey, who's running Shinra now?" he asks as the elevator dings to their stop, the Weapon Containment floor. My story ain't over yet, heh!

  "Almost. Next week is um...Thanks Giving. Yeah, that's it. " Funny that this would actually be her first time actually being able to celebrate these holidays. Still, she couldn't help but feel sorry for him still. While at the same time hoped his family,where ever they were, was safe. "Ohh..That sounds interesting. I wonder if I could get one like that. " She grinned, it was scary, was she joking, or serious? Knowing Hiyori, she was probably serious! "I hope they aren't. I wouldn't wanna see anyone locked up in this dump! "
"Ummm......President......" There was a brief pause. "Argent..something! I don't remember his last name...! " She said with a sheepish smile, now standing there kind of behind Tatsu, this was an area she hadn't been in, so she really didn't know what to expect.

Unfortunatly for the pair, Tats's knowledge of the building was completely accurate about this floor. This was the Weapons Containment floor, one floor below Weapons Research and Development, and the storage site of quite a bit of Shin-Ra tech. Now, under Rufus, this floor had been guarded by mechanized infantrymen and Shin-Ra Security personnel. Now, the guard had been seriously upgraded. As soon as the elevator dinged into place and the door's opened, the guards on either side were alert. They hadn't received word that someone was coming from the Presidents office or the main receptionist. So, as soon as the doors open, one of the guards started talking immediately. "Identification please." He asked, gun lowered and finger off the trigger, but ready to start firing if it became necessary. Same could be said for the other guard, both of them holding strange rifles that Tatsu would never recognize, although Hiyori might if she had gotten close to the invaders that had attacked Midgar around a month back. They were Preatorian Nox Assault Rifles, and were quite a bit more advanced then the old rifles the forces used to use. Among other things, only registered users could fire them. Anyone else tried, and they didn't work.

My neck feels sore... But still... Tatsu Kobayashi "Argent, eh..?" He grinned. "Heh. Take that, Rufus Shifty... He was in charge when I was arrested. I'm sure that since Mr. Argent is the boss now, he'd let me go. I'm pretty likable, I would think." "So, Thanksgiving is next week? I don't even know if my sister even knows I exist at this point.. I've been away for a while, and I keep forgetting to phone home.." He shakes his head as he enters the floor, guiding Hiyori by the hand to stay close. Tatsu had remembered this place was pretty tricky. ...And there it came, guards came aiming at them from the front. Tatsu sighs. "...Sir, I believe something that belongs to me is down here on this floor... Now, you can shoot me at the risk of causing the little lady at my side some crazy trauma, or we can just settle down, put the firearms away, get me my Mako Styx, let us go, and we'll be alright." He finishes his speech with a nice smile. Pray it worked. My story ain't over yet, heh!

 "Maybe..Everyone says he's a good guy, but...with you locked up, that doesn't tell me he's good. He should have known you were in there and released you the day he got in the high position! I wanted to meet him earlier, to see for myself if I felt he was trust worthy. " Yeah, she may of been young, but she was also pretty smart and much different from most kids. Hiyori wasn't exactly a normal kid after all.
Then, as the guards made there appearence, what she focused her eyes on was the strange weapons they held.Though she didn't exactly know -what- they were, she knew they weren't typically what she normally saw guards holding. And, they were familiar to her, maybe it would come to her. Setting the camera to picture mode, the flash of her camera went off as she snapped a few shots!

The guards looked a little bemused at Tatsu's request, and the one who had spokn earlier looked like he was about to say something when Hiyori's camera flash went off. Right then, their weapons came up and fingers slid onto the trigger's, although they did not fire immediately. After a moment, the guard who had been talking before lowered his weapon slightly. "Any equipment stored on this level is exclusively the property of Shin-Ra. However, if you think something of yours may have somehow arrived here, we can check the logs for you. You can wait in the floor below us, and we will inform you if your item is located. However, we will need to confiscate that camera." He said, sounding cool and reasonable as he spoke. In the time the first man had been speaking, the other guard was moving forward, presumably to confiscate Hiyori's camera.

My neck feels sore... But still... Tatsu Kobayashi Oh god. Just... He knew something was going to happen. Why did Hiyori have to take pictures? "...Hiyori, I think that guy wants to take yer camera... I-I'm sure he just wants to get rid of the super secret-y stuff, kid..." he adds nervously. He didn't think Hioyri would be very civil about her camera. "I'm sure they'll give it back. Better than being shot at.." My story ain't over yet, heh!

Hiyori gasped as the men seemed startled by the flash of her camera, one little detail she forgot to think of. She could shut the flash off, but, then it wouldn't get the best of picture quality, and in this kind of situation, she needed it to be perfect. Well, thank the gods they had good finger triggers not to push down in panic!
Then she heard it. Those words... "..C-confiscate...? That means...to take it away, right? .......................N-Nooooo!! You aren't getting my camera. " Lowering it now, her fingers switched the top dial, as she dialed in one single little code quickly. The camera was now in battle mode. Lucky for her, they didn't know what her lovely camera could do. So, she began to raise it for the one walking toward her, with seemingly the intent of taking it. "You better stay back or else..It won't be good for you!.! " Playing with the dial setting further more, the setting was now set on freeze, like before. If she moved it again to the right, it would be on attack mode, which wouldn't just be a simple freeze, but instead, the flash of the camera would send out beams of high energy at her target, which would no doubt hurt pretty bad. It had enough force to send a man back into a wall most the time, but every man was different. "No way, They won't lay one evil-dirty finger on it...! "

Once Hiyori started threatening the two guards, the guns were back up again. Before, most people would have just laughed at the supposedly ineffective threat, but after the massive amount of children and young teen's capable of taking out Turks and low ranking SOLDIER's, everyone was far more cautious about those threats now. Besides, someone supposedly trying to break into Weapons Containment could be a threat. "Please turn over the camera peacefully. Don't make us use force." The man said, steel underlying his voice now. They both looked perfectly ready to fire if Hiyori or Tatsu attacked, irregardless of the fact she looked only nine years old. What the pair wouldn't know was that the weapons were set to fire electrical energy instead of bullets, in an attempt to disable rather then kill with a Tazer-like effect, but stronger.

My neck feels sore... But still... Tatsu Kobayashi "Sleepga." A bright light flashed over Hiyori's head. She suddenly felt very tired, her eyelids getting much heavier. She fell, leaning on Tatsu's leg, the camera dropping until it's strap caught it. Tatsu grinned at the purple Materia in his hand. "Looks like I still had that one after all! Who'da thought?" he chuckles. "So, you guys'll be giving the camera back, right?" Tatsu asks. "The girl should be knocked out for about two hours, so that's plenty of time to delete those photos and junk.. Oh, and the Mako Styx should be in that log.. Class B Melee, or something. It's been a while since I was employed here.." My story ain't over yet, heh!

One of the guns trained on Tatsu as soon as he began casting, but again, these men were fresh, and therefore not as trigger-happy as they could be, so they didn't fire. The soldier who had been moving for the camera went over to Hiyori and took it off of her sleeping self. After he stepped back, the other lowered his gun, looking relieved that the pair hadn't tried to start a fight. "Thank you for making sure she didn't do anything rash. We will of course return the camera, but we will need to look through everything on it. Everything on this floor and the floor directly above us is classified as Shin-Ra company secrets, so we would appreciate it if you didn't tell anyone of any devices you may or may not have seen here, as well as needing to make sure nothing gets out on this camera." The man said. He sounded much more normal now, although it also sounded like he was reciting something boring from memory as well. "Oh, and before you leave, just one quick thing." The man said, raising a hand towards the pair, which glowed yellow for a moment. If it had ever happened to him before, Tatsu would probably recognize the tingle sweeping over him as a Scan. After a moment the tingling faded away and the guard lowered his hand. "Just checking for any other surveillance equipment or recording devices."
