 Isabel Mercer イザベルの呉服商
     
After hanging up her phone, Isabel calmly walked on her way out of the room she was resting up in, all employees that held certain jobs important enough for them to remain in the ShinRa building had there own small rooms, nothing fancy,but just enough to stay comfortable. "Cissnei is so pushy! " She said on her way out, yawning softly as she slid her key card through to enter the elevator.About four minutes later, it reached the main lobby and the doors slid open, Isabel stepping out. What she saw the second she stepped out though, made her stomach turn. Dead bodies of Soldiers laying in pools of there own blood, and a icy feel to the entire area still remained. Shiva was no joke, while most were typically frozen on the spot, these men weren't quite as lucky. The next trouble came when she felt herself slipping due to the thin ice. Tottally fun when she was trying to revive and heal those who were lost or injured.
It didn't take to long to bring them back, unfortunately she was doing exactly what Rufus wanted of her.This was her true reason they brought her back here, how good would Rufus be without his army always dying? No matter what, she would be the one to bring them back, and keep it strong. Her acts of kindness weren't all that great for those who wanted to get rid of the currupt soldiers.
Finally, as she began to head her way out.. her phone was snatched right out of her pocket. "H-Hey!! What are you doing? That's mine! " The phone was then conficated to be brought over to Rufus and Isabel was told to remain inside.. "....Sorry boys, She will be coming back with me.." Cissnei grabbed her arm, she had come out of no where it seemed, the doors being shattered helped her slip in even more, still, before they could say anything more, she and Isabel were gone from ShinRa Tower.
"...To think I was going to sit and drink Sylvanas's Super Tea...Instead, i'm here saving you again! How could you not know you got a text message? It's important that you read them! " "....But..They took my phone!! I had so many cute pictures saved in it...Why my phone!? Can't we just go back and get it? " "You know, Isabel...You frighten me sometimes. No. No. NO. We are going back to the mansion. Besides. ROY is there."
"Roy is there?!!" ....And that was all it took for slow Isabel to suddenly become super Isabel, angelic wings and all. For someone who didn't fully know how to control then, they sure appeared instantly and even took her where she wanted to go, which was to the mansion at the speed of light without taking down others along the way! The door opened suddenly, and in went the overly excited Angel. With just one glance, she spotted the blond love of her like sitting oh-so-peacefully in the living room.
Roy, would barely get a blink in before Isabel flew over and tackled him into the biggest,choking hug of his life. Her wings didn't help matters, they were quite big! ".......Rule number one...Never mention Roy again!

"..Well, we should go find a place to stay. I won't be taking up anyone's time here, they are far to busy looking..." Oliva was the first to walk away, Lissa and Nowi following on, while Lissa seemed a little disappointed, she decided to follow along. It wouldn't be great if they lost each other again.It was dark out already, after all. "...Maybe we should ask someone where a place of rest would be? "She suggested as the group of girls walked on, eventually slipping out of avalanche mansions sight.

Robin "We're not pawns of some scripted fate. I believe we're more. Much more...
There's something between us all. Something that keeps us together... Like...
Invisible ties, connecting us."  "Excuse me, ladies," came a female's voice from behind Olivia's group, and when they looked they would see a silver haired girl, dressed similarly to someone they knew dearly, but was unfamiliar to them. She seemed to talk to them in an extremely familiar tone, however, and she wore a warm smile. "You wouldn't want to miss out on a reunion, would you?" She asked, expecting a bigger reaction than the.... likely confused looks she got. "...Er... is... there something on my face? ...I was.... kinda expecting more than that..." The girl said, almost sounding disheartened. "....Don't.... you guys recognize me? It's me! Robin! Remember? Chrom's chief Tactician...? ....You can't possibly have forgotten..." The fact of the matter is, these girls remembered Robin, but not THIS Robin. The Robin they remembered was a male of very similar appearance and identical garb, but still male. "...Seriously..." The girl said under her breath. "...This... you're joking... right...?""Gh..." Roy let out as his fiancee hugged him. He couldn't exactly blame her for her excitement, but he wasn't so fond of making such a... scene... "....Now I remember why I stayed away from this place..." He wasn't serious, but perhaps he was trying to be a BIT playful with her, at least to calm her down a bit.Ephraim stopped where he stood, turning now to where he could see the princess. He was in the back of the group, so it didn't halt them. He could catch up to them in a moment anyway. "...?" His eyebrow rose at her basically hiding. "..." He raised his hand, making a "come on" sort of motion to her, for her to follow him and come to the mansion as well. (( OoC: ))

"...? Well, you are a quiet one suddenly.. " She was expecting a little reaction at least, maybe a few words, or even more see that he was happy to see her.Then, when he motioned for her to follow to the mansion, the strangeness only grew. Why was he so quiet? "...Um..I don't know if it's the best idea. My last visit didn't earn me points of friendship.." Stealing the live fish and returning them to the lake wasn't exactly cool with some.Sure, it was a long time ago, but still... While Roy liked to avoid scenes, Isabel was almost always making them in some way. Keeping her arms around him, she at least loosened her death grip, while her wings began to disappear.She didn't ask questions, despite how much she wanted answers, instead...she just wanted to enjoy this moment, before it was gone again as she suspected it would be.
Lissa was the first to turn around at the sudden unfamiliar womens voice. The blond one just seemed to stare at her for the longest, awkward moments of time after having listened to her say those crazy, creepy things. The appearance of her clothing was oddly familiar, though, but that only seemed to add to the strangeness of this encounter. "......A-Are you making fun of Robin?? " She seemed so sincerer, and even kind but, Lissa found herself in silent rage that might not of remained in silence for to long.. "What are you, a grab robber?? Did you steal his clothes?! " Okay, now THAT was a odd thought to even suggest. "You are NOT Robin! " She stepped forward. "...I don't find this funny at all..Robin....Robin was great and wonderful to Chrom and I...If anyone dares to mock him....I won't be so 'delicate' anymore!! " Then there was the fact that this person knew Chrom, which only made her all that much more suspicious and worried.. "Time to tell me how you know Chrom...You better not have done something to him!!"

Robin "We're not pawns of some scripted fate. I believe we're more. Much more...
There's something between us all. Something that keeps us together... Like...
Invisible ties, connecting us." "...What? Why would I make fun of myself, Lissa?" Robin asked, seeming rather confused at the notion. "...What? Grave robber? I'm not dead, Lissa! ..."HIS" clothes...?" That made no sense to her, until a thought came to her head. "...Ohhhh, I get it. This is another one of your pranks, eh, Lissa? How funny, you almost..." ...she didn't seem very joking. "...Surely this has to be a joke. It's me! Robin! Hello? Remember? I was the woman you, Chrom and Frederick found in the field so long ago. I was there with you when your sister died, when we defeated Gangrel, when we stopped Walhart's advances, and when we faced Grima... And I am NOT a man... What's gotten into you..? Olivia! You remember, right? I was the maid of honor at your wedding with Chrom! ...Don't you remember? ...We...promised to build a theater together one day..." The Robin Olivia would remember was Chrom's best man at their wedding, and had indeed made the same promise with Olivia about building a theater with her one day... "...Gods... what's... what's the matter with you all...? If Chrom were here, he could tell you.... he's seen me-. ...er...." Perhaps saying that little bit wasn't the best around Chrom's WIFE. Granted, nothing romantic had ever happened between Robin and Chrom, but they had seen each other in more... exposed ways before. "This has to be some sort of joke... I am Robin... Validar was my father, I was the host of Grima... what do I have to say to convince you? No one else outside the Shepherds knows these things... isn't that proof enough?" It seemed to be tearing her apart that her closest friends could have forgotten her, but technically they hadn't, it was just... different."Ugh," Ephraim let out, rolling his eyes a bit and walking directly to Azura. "Just shut up and come on," he said, grabbing her by the wrist and simply pulling her toward the mansion. He wasn't being rude, or at least he wasn't trying to be, it was just that he always took a rather direct approach to things, so he intended to have Azura do the same. "If anybody gives you any trouble, just tell me. I'll take care of them. Besides, who cares what they think? Nobody's perfect." Truer words were, perhaps, never spoken. Whose place was it to judge others, when they had similar or the same problems? Not them, surely. (( OoC: ))

Zack Fair "Embrace your dreams, and, whatever happens, protect your SOLDIER honor."   Looking up from his phone, Zack saw that there was a good amount of people coming to gather here. Maybe not the bulk of Avalanche, though. Cloud was here, at least, but where were the others from the group at that point? Cid, Vincent, Tifa, among others, were missing. Did they not get the message, or were they busy? ...He didn't know if he should start yet. Maybe wait a BIT longer for others to arrive...
Turning, he opened the doors to the mansion and stepped in, being met with the eyes of almost everyone in the room. They were obviously wondering why they were here. "..." He let out a stressed sigh. "We'll talk about it when more people get here, alright...?" Turning, he began to head up the stairs for a little bit...
"...Zack..." Cloud said, glancing away. It was one thing for Cloud to look a bit gloomy or stressed--he never hid his emotions--but for someone like Zack, it was powerful in the wrong way. He worried for his best friend. He had never seemed this stressed before. Even when they were on the run from ShinRa and Cloud had Mako poisoning, Zack hid it very well. "...What could be happening...?"   (( OoC: ))

"...?" Azura blinked, what now? Maybe he waked up on the wrong side of the clam today! It was a funny thing, and a rather unique experience as he suddenly grabbed her wrist, her little heart did some kind of flutter she hadn't felt before, it was similar to that first sudden kiss the first time she had met him. Who knew sweet innocent Azura would love such a direct man?? And it didn't help that she and Rinoa spent so much time together talking about all their girlish fantasy's.Yes, these two were very much the same when it came to guys like this. As they made they're way to the mansion, her nervousness began to subside a little by his words. "..O-okay..Will you stay with me? " Which meant she didn't want him to leave her side!
The continued words of this girl was beginning to get under Lissa's skin. What was she trying to pull? Of all the rude things she had seen or heard in her life time, this was certainly one of the cruelest things. "What is this?? Robin is..." She seemed to have trouble saying the words she wanted to say.."He's no longer with us...And He is a HE! Not a she! " Lissa sighed heavily, what was going on here?! As this "Robin" began to mention scarcely familiar past details, details she shouldn't possibly know, Lissa went silent suddenly. All this and Oliva too, was somewhat to shocked to answer the women right away, as she was prossessing it all. Could this be real? "...I'm sorry, I have never seen you before..." She began."You look...similar, I will give you that. Though you couldn't be Robin, as Lissa said, he is not a women.But how could you--" And suddenly, there was a breif pause. "...He's seen you...what? What were you about to say? " She already didn't like the sound of those particular words, despite how much calmer and gentler she was trying to be with this women.
"This is all to strange, but at the same time...It is true that no one should or could possibly know these things. " Glancing back to Lissa, who seemed to still be trying to figure this whole situation out, Olivia began to think. "Stranger things have happened...Like suddenly being brought into this world. Is it possible that the future's may of..changed, in a way? Some sort of alternate time? " Returning her gaze to Robin, her thoughts seemed to help her piece things together some. This could be the only explanation, right? As strange as it was, somehow Robin was alive, but not just alive, he was a women! "..If this theory is correct, then....Oh, gosh..This is so strange.." It may of been odd, but she had to think of how stressing it would likely become to her, there would be a lot to explain to everyone, should they ever meet again. "Lissa, I know this is hard to take in, but try to believe her..I'm starting to believe it myself, it may be strange but it seems possible with everything that's happened to us all lately.." She said to her softly, though it seemed Lissa was in her own little world at this point.It wasn't that easy to just accept and be completely fine with, not for her.
"I'm sorry, just..give her some time. Eventually she will see it too. " Olivia tried to smile, hoping to at least calm Robin down.

  There was a soft knocking on Zack's door, only moments after he entered his room. She would of course, wait until she got some sort of answer before turning the handle slightly, and stepping inside before closing the door again.She may not of been around as much as she should have, but that didn't mean she didn't care about anyone. Obviously she did, she just found her own ways to live her life, which on the brighter side was getting a lot better. She was no longer so rebellious, but still that fun-going girl everyone used to love. "Hi there.." She said as she walked over to him, only to give him a much needed hug. "Whatever is happening, we'll get through it. We always do somehow. You above all should be positive, that's how you win right? You never lost a battle because of your positive energy, your devotion and determination to protect everyone. Don't lose it, and we will certainly when against whatever enemy were up against this time! " Ariel wasn't the best motivationalist, but she tried as best she could.
Meanwhile, downstairs, Sylvanas came out of the kitchen with one rather large serving tray of drinks. How she didn't drop or spill one was rather amazing! Then again, she was used to this by now. Everyone had come from afar, so of course the natural thought was to get them something to drink. But these were no ordinary drinks, coming from Sylvie here. They were super healthy-with-a-kick- drinks that could lift up anyone's spirits! At least, that was what she liked to say. They were mainly different kinds of tea's, all of the best quality's including Matcha tea. "Drink up! They're my special-tea's! Heh,heh.......That was kind of funny, wasn't it?? " Leave to to Sylavanas to try her best to lighten the gloomy moods.

-Soko Blairse-
Soko who had migrated to the wall by Pyrrhus, cleared his throat "So what exactly are we up against? i mean the Centra haven't sensed it,my brother, Pyrrhos, and me would have sensed a change in the life-stream's energy, so what could be this well hidden as to avoid the even Centra's sight?

"Well. I'll leave you alone..Guess you kinda came up here for that.." Stepping away, Ariel turned and began her way out of his room, shutting the door behind her as she then returned to the living room. Just getting to the bottom of the stairs, she just managed to catch Soko's questions, which made her curious about something he said. "How would you sense changes in the life-stream? I'm pretty sure only the Cetra can do that. "

Zack Fair "Embrace your dreams, and, whatever happens, protect your SOLDIER honor." After making his way back downstairs, Zack looked around the living room, noting that there seemed to be more people now, including Jake and Stark. Most of the people outside had made their way in as well. Now was as good a time as any, he supposed. "Alright everyone," Zack said, somewhat loudly, to get everyone's attention. "...There's... an issue. Before you all came here, we had a visitor. Someone who says he's from some group called "Cerberus,"" Zack began to explain. "Their leader spoke to me. He told me about something that lives inside the planet. Something that's gonna wake up soon. He likened it to a WEAPON--a creature that Cloud's party had defeated during the first coming of Meteor--only he said it was much more powerful."
"How much more powerful are we talking here?" Cloud spoke up."
"...He said if you were to combine the Ultima, Ruby AND Emerald WEAPONs, their power wouldn't even come close to this thing," That caused a small reaction from those who knew the power of the WEAPONs. "...He said that this creature was created long ago--during the time of the Ancients--and placed inside the planet. At that time the Cetra had been battling against Jenova, while the first of our kind were hiding, according to a friend of mine. ...Its power is immense, and it was made to completely destroy all the life on Gaia so that life could begin anew." This caused a bit of talking between the people there.
"For what purpose?" Marth asked. "Why would such a thing be created? Who would gain by destroying all life?"
"...I've been thinking about that..." Zack said, turning around as he thought a bit... "...It stands to reason that the Ancients had been fighting against Jenova, and they may have been losing, so they created a failsafe. ...Something that would only activate if the planet were to retain a serious amount of harm. This thing would be there in case the Ancients lost and there was no one left to fight Jenova. If that happened, Jenova would begin to hurt the planet, and this thing would awaken and destroy it, along with all the rest of life on the planet. It would be saving the world, but at a cost..."
"Clearly these "Ancient" people won, right? So why would it wake up now? What could possibly be hurting the world so much that it would show up?" Chrom asked.
Zack glanced at Cloud, who he knew already had the answer. "....Mako....." He said, causing a collective gasp from those who knew just what it was. "...Mako is the planet's energy--the Lifestream--made into energy using machines called Mako Reactors. The reactors make life easier here, but at the cost of draining the energy of the world. ...It all makes sense..."
"Exactly..." Zack sighed out. "When I heard about this thing, I wondered how it could possibly have come to be, then I started thinking about it. I thought that the Ancients had to have been the ones to make it, And when I started thinking about the Ancients and what happened to them, what could have led them to do it, everything just fell into place... the Mako Reactors drain the energy from the planet, so it isn't all at once like Jenova would have been, but it's still killing the planet. It's the reason the monster is awakening."
"That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard!" Ephraim asserted. "Who the hell's idea was it to make energy out of the planet's life? Are you all idiots?"
"I agree. It is a foolish thought to take a world's life for any means."
"Blame ShinRa, not us. They're the organization that created Mako Reactors."
"Well, can't we make them turn it off?" The red-haired Roy asked.
"It's too late for that..." Stark interjected, a hand to his chin as he had been thinking this all out in the short time he had known of it. "...My guess is that the planet has been dying for far too long now. Even if we were to shut off every Mako Reactor--a tall order in of itself--the most nit might do is delay the inevitable. The Mako Reactors have been active for too long. If this is all true, then there is no way to stop this creature from coming."
This began quite an argument within the mansion, which lasted a few moments before Zack spoke up again. "Alright enough!" He shouted, causing most to go silent. "Giovanni wasn't here as a messenger of death. He offered an alternative... He said that they had found an ARK, likely created by the Ancients for the humans assuming Jenova won. This ARK is the only thing that can transport those that live on Gaia to the New World--the world after everything is destroyed..."
"Well that's convenient."
"Indeed. Too convenient. What's the catch?"
"...The catch is... The ARK only has limited space. It can carry all members of Avalanche--and their families--and maybe some more after that, but..."
"But everyone not on the ship is basically dead," Jake said. "That about what you're telling us?"
"...Yeah." Zack managed. "...It-"
"Well I've heard enough," Jake interrupted. "We can't get on that thing. We have to stay here and kill this creature. It's not like anyone else is thinking otherwise, right?"
There was a general feeling of agreement, but Zack then spoke up again. "...Think about it. If this thing DID come, and we were aboard the ARK, it would kill ALL life. That does include citizens, but it also means that it would destroy all monsters. It would destroy Jenova. It would destroy all evil life. ...Those who go to the New World--and there is enough space so that we could repopulate--would live in a place with no monsters. We wouldn't have to worry about our kids being killed, or citizens being killed. It would be almost perfect. The benefit may outweigh the cost-"
"The cost of HUMAN LIVES!" Jake shouted, giving Zack pause. "The hell's the matter with you? The people that live here aren't some damn numbers! They're people! People living and laughing and they're people who-!"
"Hate you," Roy spoke up, directed at Jake, before looking at him. "They hate you for being different. Am I wrong? How many of them used to throw sh** at you and call you names because of that freakish arm you have?"
"Wanna say that again?"
Roy sighed, standing. "Look, the way I see it, even if we do stay, there's no guarantee that we could even beat the thing, or that we would be able to stop it before it destroyed the world. A world where my family can be happy sounds pretty damn good to me. And, like I just said, the people here don't deserve a second thought. There's too much corruption and evil in the world. Better to just start over, and make a happy society. Who's with me?"
"It is true that, if the Ancients made this, it might be too strong. Or it might indeed destroy the world before we have ample reaction time. But it's also true that the people here can't be looked at as some numbers on a graph. If even half of us were to board the ARK, all those who remained would almost certainly die."
"..."
"...Well, Zack? What do you have to say?"
Zack looked at his best friend for a moment, the lowered his head, looking forward. "...My family... my family comes before anything else... I say we board the ARK. It can be a new start for us."
"WHAT?!"
"Zack!"
"This is your decision...?"
"What do you all think? I want to hear it. The ARK can provide us with a New World full of promise and with almost no threat of monsters or evil. It can do what all of us have failed to do. It can save the world..." Zack said, looking around the room to see the reactions of everyone present. (( OoC: ))
