"You whine too much," he said as he slammed his hilt down hard upon her neck, rendering her unconscious. "There! Much better."

((Not gming considering we talked about that outside of the rp))
Aerith simply felt a sudden pain against the base of her neck, and noticed everything dimming. She did not feel cold at least. Was she going to live then? Aerith closed her eyes slowly, falling unconscious.

"You know it, Miss. " He turned to Fran as he boarded the Strahl, "Let's go! I don't know where yet, Fran, but get us there!"

Terasu stared at the pages of her book in hand until she heard the door of the study flying open. Slowly, she shifted her eyes towards the two infantry men who stood in the doorway, one with their gun aimed towards her.
"Special occasion?" She asked tilting her head.
"The headquarters in Midgar was broken into - apparently information on your location has been compromised." A slight smile crept onto Terasu's lips as she flipped the page of her book.
"Sounds like your problem to me - not mine," she commented quietly turning her eyes towards her book once again.
"Come on." The one who had his weapon lowered said quickly, grabbing a hold of her arm and pulling her from her seat. Without a struggle, Terasu allowed herself to be pulled to her feet.
"I think I can walk alone," she finally said only to feel his grip loosen on her arm. Terasu rotated her arm, breaking free from the infantry man's hold, only to wrap her other arm around his neck and pulling herself behind him. "Didn't think I spent forever on my nails for no reason, did you?" Terasu asked now digging her nails into his skin. The other man simply shook as he watched Terasu hold his partner, ensuring that there was no weapons around for him to grasp.
She continued to press her nails against the skin of the guard only to finally pull his gun from it's holder on his waist. It was at this point the second guard, who was at the door, opened fire due to his nervousness. However, having a human shield proved itself useful as Terasu was able to hide behind it and shoot blindly. Finally the noise of the gunshots faded away and Terasu let her shield simply fall, both of her guards dead. "That's that," she muttered finally excusing herself from the study and closing the door behind her. "Now - hopefully I'm right about this," Terasu said quietly as she stared out of the large windows at the top of the stairs, waiting for that front door to open and hopefully bring the guest she had been waiting for.

A swoosh and slight jingle of loose metal joined with the creaking of leather were all heard as Sephiroth landed in front of the Shinra Mansion door. He rose, slowly, his silver hair billowing behind him along with his cloak - both shimmering brilliantly under the bright sun.
He opened the door and strolled to his normal spot in the laboratory under the hidden passage, uncaring of his surroundings as he passed by.
He dropped Aerith down hard with a thud on a examination cart, dust permeating the room from the new intruder that had bothered its slumber. He then strapped her in tightly and went into the library to find the proper notes to go about his plans with her.

Aerith groaned and turned her head over to the side as she slowly started to come to. It was so cold and stuffy. Where was she? Aerith slowly blinked a few times, attempting to regain the ability to see properly. Finally she attempted to sit up only to find that was practically impossible to do as she was held down. The Cetra lifted her head up somewhat, as she was at least able to do that and studied the straps which held her down.
"What in the world?" She muttered to herself as she looked around once more. Where on earth was she?! Certainly nowhere in Midgar but for some reason she felt like she was back under Hojo's watch. Quietly she attempted to wiggle herself free.
Terasu looked over her shoulder, hearing the door creak but feeling the breeze of someone hurrying past her only a second after the door opened. She turned towards the bedroom she had been staying in, hearing the door to the hidden stairwell and basement slamming open. No other would simply head there, Terasu simply figured. At least now she could get her weapon from the lab with the door opened again. She finally made her way into the laboratory rather quietly only to see the struggling Aerith strapped down on a table.
"Not what I was expecting to find," she trailed off as Aerith froze with the new comer entering. "Amusing though." Terasu finally stood near the long hall of bookshelves and found Sephiroth looking through the logs. She silently stared towards him, not wanting to distrupt his work.

"If you are going to be there you might as well be of some use and make sure that she doesn't escape," he stated openly without looking up from the book she was holding. "She has a terrible tendency to get herself out of situations through means of dumb luck." He turned to face her. "I have something important to do. I think I may have just found a new trick." An evil glint shone in his eyes as he spoke.
He waited for his 'guest' to leave before shutting the door and doing who knows what. Something with books and spells of some mannerism, probably. Suddenly, about an hour later, there was a soft yet loud pop - like a glass ornament being broken inside a rubber box. Smoke filled the room and gave an eerie effect mixed with the shimmering green light that came from under the door with it.
Several minutes later the door opened, an image stood in the door frame, hardly visible with the smoke and light effects seeping through the portal it stood in.
((To verify, a portal isn't always a magical gate, the true term is any archway, door, passage, etc. ))

Terasu slowly nodded as Sephiroth spoke, understanding clearly. She turned to face Aertih and gave a slight smile, leaving him be as she wandered towards the other woman. "What's with that face?" Terasu asked as she leaned against the table looking over Aerith carefully. "Scared? It's suiting for you, you should wear it more often," Terasu said quietly, tilting Aerith's chin up, seemingly examining her carefully.
Aerith froze as the woman tilted her chin up. Even though her hands were gloved, there was something so cold about her. Perhaps it was the apparent liking of people being in fear that made Aerith notic the coldness of the person. She finally opened her mouth to say something, after a long and strange silence, but felt Terasu place her fingers against her lips, shushing her as the door was opened up. What was that mad-man possibly doing now?! Becoming the next Hojo?! Seemed highly like it.

As the smoke cleared, a young woman emerged through the doorway, walking slowly but with purpose. Her waist-length silver hair curled slightly as the magic that was used completed its work. Her eyes opened, revealing a blue that could only be described as chillingly luminescent. Clad in nothing but her pale skin, she strode over to Sephiroth, kneeling before him.
"You have summoned me, and I, Masamune, am here to do your bidding, my master." her voice, soft yet frightening echoed through the stone room. Her eyes lifted, looking up at Sephiroth and waiting for his next command.

He tossed her an outfit very similar to his. "You will be my decoy at times. For now, go and help our Terasu."

Donning the clothing, she strode over to Terasu, and stood on the opposite side of Aerith, making sure she did not move, by any means necessary.

Aerith watched as this new person stood by her side. The name Masamune sounded familiar. Why though? Why? Aerith closed her eyes as she attempted to think only to finally have it come to her as she laid there on the table. Hadn't Cloud once identified Sephiroth's sword by that name? Things just kept becoming more and more confusing here!
Terasu withdrew her fingers from Aerith's lips as Masamune joined her. "A pleasure to meet you," Terasu said, offering her hand towards Masamune. She too had reached the same conclusion as Aerith and those she did not wear it as clearly as Aerith did, she was somewhat puzzled by what was occuring. Not like it mattered though as it was obvious that Sephiroth had a plan and that was all that simply mattered.
((Lol - I failed to notice Aerith's and Terasu's fonts were opposites of each other xD ))

Hmmm.... maybe I should go get the others and notify them that I have found Terasu... Nah, they can use the training. Should do them good.
Sephiroth exited the room in a silhouetted manner as Masa, flipping through pages of a ridiculously thick book, which he held in his right hand.
"I can't seem to find why you can talk to the spirits in ways that I cannot. My only haunch is that it is a trait common only to female Cetra. Thus, I have decided to obtain that trait from you."
He placed his book down on the table beside her. "I've found three methods; one harmless, one painful and one done after you have just freshly died. I'll try them in that order. BUT! Should you become uncooperative at any point in time, we are trying the next one, and so on. Understand?"

-With a slight head shake she quickly sat down in the pilot's chair and started to press a few buttons. The Strahl started lifting up from the ground and she took the controls with both hands. Soon they were hovering in the air for a few moments, slowly turning.-
..hold on to something..
-Fran pushed the controls forward hard, heading towards the direction the mysterious white haired man went-
...he is a fool to think he can out run this ship...
