♛ "Nice meeting you too Noct and uhmm Cloud was it? Are you guys in here for the same reason too?"
Noctis adjusted his composure at the question. "I was sort of following him," he pointed a thumb towards Cloud who was sitting nearby. "I guess I wasn't as fortunate to be running into them," he managed to blurt out a light joke, much to his own surprise. ♛

xThe ex-Turks thought that it's weird how the girl- Yuna described the robots as creatures. They look nothing beastly. But his ears perked up when she said she owned an airship.
She owns an airship? These days the only ship that flies in the sky belongs to the either the WRO or Cid...have Wutai finally developed their own air transportation? ...the girl does look like she's descendent from Wutai.
All he could think about is the possibility of a foreign airship while the others were conversing with Yuna.

Cloud just kept silent just as usual. He didn't answer the question as Noctis was already answered her. While they are still busy focused on the Yuna, Cloud seeing his cellphone to know Vincent is sending a message to him or not. But it seems has nothing on it. With that case, Cloud felt have something wrong that happen on Vincent.
It's not like him.. making us took so long to wait him..
Clous asked Tifa to state whether she received any Vincent's message or not.
"Tifa.. Have you got Vincent's message?"

Tifa went to the kitchen and pour glasses of cold water, decorated with ice cubes for everyone. She wished she could do more...
But now is not the time for food.
The kitchen reminds her of her new helper.
I wonder where Velvet is right now...I hope you're alright. Protect her...Aerith.
She went back outside and give everyone a glass of water; the last one she handed to Yuna. Poor girl must've been running around fighting Shin-Ra robots before she gets to the bar. But that also means that Yuna must be a pretty strong fighter if she can fend off those robots all on her own.
"I'm sorry you got separated with your companions. I'm glad you made it here. I could fix you something to eat, but I'm afraid I'm gonna have you bear it for a while. Just until our friends gets here.{/smiles apologetically}"
She saw Grey had his thinking wheel turning, and Noct sitting as quiet as ever. Well...not entirely quiet. Then she heard Cloud ask her a question.
"Not since the last one Cloud. Do you think he's in trouble? It's not like him to be late..."

xxxxxxxxღxxxx⇢lll「.xDon't make me pull the trigger. ~
Placing her attention to Noct she listened to what he has to say, and managed to smile a bit as he made a joke.
"So I guess we're all trapped here. Funny, everywhere I go there's always danger lurking at every places I see. But I was surprised to encounter those robots, I did not clearly know what I was dealing with till you guys told me. And there were no people in sight, but I did see one, while I was reloading behind the building I saw a man, wearing a red cloak.. practically at his 20's.. he did not see me though, but he was carrying a girl, she was unconscious, I tried to call him.. but as I approached, those robots pulled my leg, and I got up but he vanished on thin air. Perhaps you know that guy?"
Clearly she doesn't have a clue on what those things really wanted, she have been roaming in this unfamiliar place, and with no one to ask any directions too, since the people were hiding from those robots, she sensed that her friends too might be in danger, but she could not just move without any necessary information. And that she needed answers, she turned her attention to grey, probably it's the best time to ask some questions.
"So Grey, where exactly I am? you see, I'm not that familiar here, and our airship was shot down, and we lost control, I'm suspecting there was a third party. We were actually going to see uhm Mr. Cid Highwind, we were suppose to discuss about transporting some machinas over here, do you know him by any chance?. And what do those things want? "
She stopped as Tifa came back with water, she realized that she overwhelmed him with too many questions at hand. But then, who could blame her? she had no clue or whatever mess she's in to. She smiled at Tifa as she handed her a drink
"Thank you Tifa, your very kind and don't worry.. the water will satisfy my hunger. Say, do you happen to keep some ammos here? I could really use some, just for future use."
She observed her and Cloud for a while, she reminded her of Lulu and Wakka at some point, probably because of her black hair and his blonde hair. But she was very happy to be here, at least to gain some strength before she venture out again.

x"Wait. You saw Vincent? Carrying an unconscious girl-!? That could be Velvet."
Before he could start to think or ask more about Vincent and Velvet, Yuna spluttered more questions on his directions like bullets.
"Err...which should I answer first? {/sweatdrop} To start with, this is Edge. I know of one Cid Highwind; in fact, everyone here does. {/notices Noct} -except for Noct since he just got here. Before I can answer the rest of your questions, I have to ask. What is machina?

Yuna saw Vincent running while carrying an unconscious Velvet!? That can't be good news. In fact it sounds like they're fleeing.
Tifa had an idea what they were running away from. And if they're running away that means that things are not going fine with the two of them. She's too worried to listen to any more of Yuna's questions, even when she asked for ammos and immediately sends a worried look at Cloud.

She saw Vincent... It's definitely he's in trouble now..
As Cloud whispered to himself about Vincent, he noticed that Tifa was gave him a worried look.
Tifa... She really worried... I.. should do something..
Cloud responded back to Tifa with a slight smile and shakes his head a bit as for the signal that she doesn't need too worry them. Cloud finished his glass and get off from the stool chair.
"I'm leaving.."

♛ "You're going to track them down?"
Noctis who was pretty quiet throughout their discussion on the robots and the whereabouts of their missing friends, suddenly voiced out a question. It wasn't really out of concern. It was more towards a simple need to satisfy his building curiosity.
"I'm not sure if it's a good idea to be going alone. Just saying," he shrugged. Somehow, Noctis could feel that it wouldn't be such a problem on Cloud's side. Something tells me he definitely prefers the absence of company, Noctis thought silently. ♛

Before Cloud started a step forward, he heard Noctis voiced out a question. It's probably Noctis asked to Cloud since he's the one who are gonna leave. Then, he heard again Noctis talked something to him. He glanced Noctis over his shoulder.
".... It doesn't matter with it"

She raised an eyebrow at Grey, what a coincidence, those people that she just saw was one of them. So the guy was Vincent and the girl's name was Velvet, she just hoped that they're in a safe condition. She gulped as she manages to reply Grey's question and pulled out a piece of paper from her pouch, it was a blueprint for a specific type of machina. She unrolled it and placed it on the table
"To start off, a machina is simply a machine powered all over Spira, you could say they look like robots, but this is more complex, you can set it off and it will hunt down enemies without maintenance. This type is what we call an assault machina. It's hard to defeat it since they consume lightning as their power source. It can inflict poison or even petrify enemies and may kill them. I think I know why Mr. Highwind wanted to negotiate from us. So Grey, would you mind answering the rest of my questions? " Picking up the glass she took a sip from it, the cold water was all she need to cool up. she shook her head a bit as she put down the glass. Sensing that Cloud finally uttered a word about leaving.
" Noct is right..Cloud you can't go alone, I barely survived out there. No offense but you need some help. "
She glanced at Tifa once more. She was obviously very worried about her friends. She tries to comfort her, assuring that her friends are safe .

♛ Noctis glanced at the blueprint laid out by Yuna. One half of him marveled with awe at the lucid creation of the machina. Another half felt slightly anxious. If such a machine falls into the wrong hands... he let his thoughts trailed off as he looked at the blueprint in silence.
One thing's for sure. This must never be revealed to the nations outside of his kingdom. Especially to that of Tenebrae.
"It doesn't matter..." Cloud's sentence seemed to have broken his thoughts about home.
Noctis responded by casting a disapproving look towards Cloud. His expression was further supported by Yuna who subsequently agreed to his opinion.
"I don't know how things work out for you guys in here. But I believe there are two things that matter. One, sheer stupidity to be believing that you alone can fight off whatever that gets tossed in your way. Second, the lack of trust that you're portraying towards your friends."
"...-You need to learn to share the burden once in a while." Noctis added with a grave demeanor. ♛

xGrey studied the blueprint Yuna presented and he can hear his own minds' gear reeling with all the possibilities brought by such machine.
"..machine. Machina. Machina is machines. Despite having such advance capabilities...the design looks...ancient. It's also capable of casting..."
"Our machines have a more futuristic design. You guys picked the right person to deal with; there's no better expert in machines here than Cid Highwind."
Before he can answer the questions he owed to Yuna, it seemed Cloud was intent on leaving the bar. With the probability of trying to find Vincent and Velvet. He's also intent on going solo, which upsets both their new acquaintances.
...and by the looks he saw on Tifa's face...the delivery boy is also upsetting their bar host.

Tifa was worried about her old friend and her new employee, but most of all, she's worried about Cloud. The least that could happen to the other two is flesh injuries (They won't die, I trust them to get out of this alive. A few injuries perhaps, but Vincent is good at escaping alive;that she can count on.), but for Cloud, the scar would be in the inside.
"Listen to Yuna and Noct, Cloud. You're not alone..."
She set her eyes heavenward, as if she's looking at another friend, asking for a little strength to protect Cloud...
"You have us. Grey and I. Yuna and Noct. Even Vincent and Velvet. Trust us Cloud...we're on your side."
She smiled at Cloud reassuring her words. She knew Cloud was not the same man he was before; mourning over a death of a friend; feeling guilty for a murder he didn't commit. She knew-no she believe Cloud will listen to her. To all of them.
"Grey and I will stay here and look after the kids.(Grey-in-the-background:We will?)What are you gonna do Cloud?"
{OOC: yech so cheesy. xD}

Cloud turned towards his friends, including his two new acquaintances. It was clearly obvious that everyone had a slight protest in him going alone. But the one who was the most concerned was none other than his childhood friend since she was the one who knew him quite well. Realizing their strong objection towards his intent, Cloud just kept quiet and bowed his head slightly as his gazed away from them. As Tifa finished her words, he glanced slightly towards her and saw her warm reassuring smile. Cloud knew he needed to at least say something to reassure her back. At the very least.
"I know... I'm not alone... -not anymore... And I trust you guys.. ..But.." *paused for a moment* "I..." *paused a bit looking slightly hesitant*
However, this time, Cloud could not heed to Tifa's caution. He decided to go based on the reason that he owed Vincent his life. His mind involuntarily recalled the incident where he was rescued by Vincent in the Forgotten City when he was drastically outnumbered by the silver-haired trio..
"Suman... -I have to go because I have a reason to fight" *paused for a moment* "Just call me if anything happens while I'm gone."
Although it seemed like he was projecting his reasons to everyone, the truth was in fact, his words were implied more towards Tifa with the means that he was still keeping his promise to her.
