Welcome to Gaia! ::

River yawned as she rested her elbows on the steering wheel, holding her chin in her hands. She was excited to finally have a fun job, something that would eventually be fun anyway… she thought with a faint sigh. The messages were so damn repetitive. She actually felt bad for the soldiers on guard duty. How boring. She heard what Gig said but she gave a tiny smirk as she cupped her ear saying, ”Eh?” She rolled her eyes at his reaction and she said, ”Ya, ya I get it. I’m just sick of waiting. Shade here needs to be out in the open road.” She wanted to use this car more. She then sat up and stretched. It’s awesome to be prepared, but… Ah I want to just do this. She thought. Patience was never going to be a talent of hers, she probably tossed it away with maturity as things not wanting to learn. But she had enough wisdom to sit still and wait. ”Wait… won’t that scratch the car?” she asked not wanting to think of what Balalika would do or say if they damaged the car. She too heard the approaching train and a part of her was like; Finally! another part was still stuck on the scratching the car, wrath of Balalika.

Being in the Midgar wastelands River was not in the least surprised when a dusty breeze whipped around tem hugging the few objects out in that wasteland. Before them was a rock formation that to River looked like a snake. ”Oi! They weren’t even to team four…” River said with a frown as Gig took the headphones. She waited for him to finish the shots before she started the car, getting a tap on the shoulder. The roar of the engine was music to her ears. Man I don’t want to give this car back… she thought with a sigh. Embracing the adrenaline rush as she stepped on the gas getting a full woohoo moment causing her to grin. Kicking up dirt and sand the car accepted the train’s challenge and in no time it matched the speed. Love love LOVE this car! River thought. The tires kicked up rocks as River gave the wheel a sharp yank turning the car towards the hill leading to the tracks. She glanced at Gig and smirked a little. ”Have fun.” She replied keeping the car’s speed steady matching the fifth car.

River swatted the hand away, Oi trying to drive here. She thought knowing he knew messing up her hair irked her. She spun the wheel again heading away from the train in a half circle aiming back at the busted car. She was going to use the hill the tracks were on as a ramp. The tires sprayed dirt as she slammed on the gas giving the car all it had. Come on I know you can do this. She thought to the car. There was a moment where time stood still as the car took them into the air. Already she was easing off the gas as she readied for impact; twisting the wheel just as the car landed in the train booth, she slammed on the brakes. The car whipped to the side and stopped before it reached the other side. ”I want to do that again! She said impressed she actually had succeeded, it was also a lot of fun at the same time.

”Well shoot, save some fun fer me…” River said as she adjusted her goggles as she recognized the where the quip came from. She climbed out of the car, took out her gunblades and sighed as the last guy was defeated. ”You know, you could have left me one of em… sheesh.” She said twisting her gunblades, putting her knuckles on her hips. She then took the time to look the car over and she nearly squeaked as she saw a scratch. Ah! I’m not even 16 yet… She thought in dismay. She pictured all kinds of horriable things, though a tiny voice whispered in the back of her head, You’re not even close. She then whined aloud, ”You’re going to be the one to buff that out or I’m totally gonna blame you.” She then saw Gig’s reaction to what was up ahead. She raised an eyebrow, ”Trouble? She asked.

Giglamesh just continued to stand infront of the heavy trooper, just grinning with his kagetsu on his shoulder. "You lap dogs going to stand there and point or do something?" He would literally reach out and poke the heavy troopers chest with his left index finger, he was trying to provoke his attack. A vein would pulse on the heavy troopers cheek, with hsi right hand he would reach in to the sheath and pull out one his his large multiple sword, in same unsheathing motion he would bring it down in a vertical slash trying to split the reaper right down the center. Giglamesh could of easily moved but he just repositioned kagetsu across his shoulders, and the heavies blade would strike against gigs left shoulder. Giglamesh would squat down some from the power of the heavy, but he held his blade back, kagetsu across both shoulders smiling. "...does that means its my turn?...heh" Giglamesh would slash kagetsu to his right side from off of his shoulders, this would push the heavies blade off of his, and push his blade upwards. Then it was time to start, giglamesh would grabe kagetsu's handle with both hands, and from a squat he would dash past the heavies right side, slashing kagetsu very violently horizontal at its right side of its torso. As giglamesh passed he kept inertia going keeping the slash going counter clockwise, bringing it around turning his hip and ankles to then slash again at the heavies lower back as he dashed behind him. then at the heavies left side giglamesh would slash kagetsu at the side/back of his knee, turn his hips and bring the scythe tip of kagetsu to try and stab in to the heavies thigh. He wasted no time to thrust kagetsu in to the side of the heavy, but having no tip kagetsu was not the best thrusting weapon, but he became evident what he was doing as he pulled the trigger trying to shoot a .50cal bullet upwards in to the rib cage of the heavy. giglamesh would slash kagetsu to his right side from the kick of his rifle, whip it and bring it back up to point it at light trooper 4, which he pulled the trigger two mores times, blasting two high calibur rounds at the light trooper. Giglamesh would incredibly tighten his grip on kagetsu, he would then lift his left foot to stomp it down, He would open his mouth to let out a deep battle roar, in sync with the stomp he would slash kagetsu like a baseball bat extremely hard at the heavy trooper, hit or block the power should be enough to throw the heavy.

Despite doing multiple attacks, giglamesh only seemed to appear from point to point, the point he would appear was when he was starting each attack at the heavy, it was those moments that giglamesh's haste would accelerate his already incredibly fast motion, where he would just blur around the heavy trooper as a streak of white light. Yet from the deflecting of the heavies blade, it was like slow motion for him, and even more so for everything else in the room. But then time returned to him after his super heavy homerun attempt.
