As a sky pirate, Fran gets to go anywhere.. But strangely enough this time she's all alone, without Balthier or Vaan. It wasn't her intention to go to Midgar alone in the first place, but something just happened and Balthier did not want Fran to get involved. And as sweet as it sounds, Fran just felt useless, as if she's not strong enough to fight anymore. She wants to help her friends, that's all she really wants.. but she can't do much if they won't let her. And thus, Fran decided to go on an adventure on her own, starting with Midgar since she's never been here before. The first thing she did was checking out the church which was just.. beautiful. If only Vaan and Balthier could see this. The flowers in the church just pulled her attention as she walked further into the building, letting her shoes make calm clicking sounds. The silence in the church made her calmer than ever before, her ears were sensing nothing but the cracking of the wood, the small breeze and the sounds outside the church. She kneels down at the flowers, taking in the sweet scent. She missed Balthier the most.. but their relationship wasn't more than just closer than best friends.. with no romance or whatsoever. Fran tried to accept that fact and wanted to move on, leaving that thought behind, which is quite difficult for someone who doesn't show much emotion in her face or voice.
An hours has passed and Fran was still in the church with her eyes closed as she was kneeling at the flowers. It was as if she got in some sort of trance while she was actually daydreaming, wondering how Vaan and Balthier were doing. She wouldn't want anything to happen to both of them. "Let the Gods give you strength." Fran quietly spoke in a distinct accent,hoping that her prayers will be heard.
"You've let your eyes betray your heart..."

Rihan Amidatelion Nura walks into,the church carrying a small pouch of Materia .Rufus Shinra had kept his word and posted wanted posters all over town. Rihan had had little time to make the drop off,but the mission was a success. He now wore a trench coat with what appears to be the Kanji for Fear designed on its back;a gift from his mysterious benefactor. When he stands still it seems generate a cloak of mist for cosmetic effect. He'd come inside for a moment to rest. He doubted anyone from Shinra would find him here.He drifts off for few minutes. After thirty minutes or so he wakes up immediently and sees a message on his phone. With a touch of the screen the message disappears and Rihan stands up.
Rihan is given a a picture of the location, and a rating of how dangerous it will be. The location he was given was the city of Kingdom of Lucis. The rating of the job is 'highly dangerous' which means that it's going to be hard and he'd need a good exit strategy, or assistance. Rihan looks around and looks around.
-Shiranui: Shiranui (不知火; Literally meaning "Mysterious Light on the Sea") also known as Enjaken (炎蛇剣, Fire Snake Sword) is a big sword, shaped like an abstract flame. A unique feature of this sword is that it manifests itself differently for each of its wielders. This change depends on the spirit of those that wield it. For example, if an assassin got hold of the sword, it would manifest with the shape perfect for killing. When in possession of Rihan, the sword usually has an interesting but simple design. It consists of a long hilt, with a big ring on the end. The blade is the most interesting part of the sword. It is shaped like an abstract flame, it is black with the edge of the blade being clearer and sharper. Rihan travels with the sword on his back, wrapped around bandages. The blade embodies his "burning will for acknowledgement" and his fear.
-Kientō (輝炎濤, lit. Luminous Flame Wave)Gauntlets: A black, metal-clad pair of gauntlets reaching up towards the forearms, surrounded by rings of text. The gauntlets have large crests resembling Rihans Clan Symbol. They can ignite with his flame techniques and can be used for propulsion due to the black flame-patterned arm thrusters. When coupled with his air shoes he can move high speeds with great maneuverability.This is usually his go to weapon.
Rihan's Active abilities:
]
+ Kurotaiyō Shinken" (黒太陽真拳 Fist of the Black Sun): A signature magic style were Rihan creates several indigo flaming orbs that resemble small suns. These orbs rotate around the him and can be freely controlled to attack enemies.It is extremely reactive to water;on contact the steam released can easily blow an opponent away or allow Rihan cover to attack. Rihan can also combine several of his flaming orbs to create a single massive one, which then violently explodes with enough force and power to incinerate a large area around it. When this happens, steam can be seen emitting from the area. The Flame is a high-density form of energy that is refined from Rihans own soul. Due to the way it resonates with his emotions, it can be seen as a battle aura. However, unlike an aura which is a supernatural phenomenon seen in only a few individuals, the Flame is more akin to an actual flame, possessing its own destructive properties. The flames have the ability to manipulate outside flames as well. This includes moving, intensifying, and dispersing flames.
When it is influenced by his Fear, the area around his eyes becomes a more dark color and his flame a "colder" feel to it. Despite its less warm feel, the flame still becomes stronger than normal. When influenced with positive emotions like bravery or love, the flame glows with a bright golden color and causes Rihan to become much more hot blooded.
+ Osore (畏, Fear) The general concept of the "fear" revolves around being feared and respected by others. The user can naturally evoke and increase fear and horror in others causing the target’s brain to release fear-inducing chemicals and over load the senses or cause nightmares while they sleep. The victim’s perception may be altered, causing them see their environment as ominous and the user as dark and foreboding, or even seen as a monster. Users of this are adept at making themselves difficult to locate and, by extension, attack.The user can command detailed illusions,yet this power is more defensive and versatile than most others. Users are strongest against opponents who rely heavily on sight and considerably weaker against opponents with natural reflexes or heightened senses.
+ Construction: The basic power to turn illusions into real illusions.It manipulates form, shape, mass, feel and smell to be that of what the opponent views to be reality. Illusions built this way have a low density and, consequentially, a weak offensive power. In most cases, he creates an illusion in relation to the environment he and his target are in, which causes the latter to view a distorted version of the setting, either minimally or severely. In relation, Rihan can conjure physical illusions that range from non-moving objects, such as a wall, or moving objects, such as an human. In the case of an illusion that portrays a living creature, Rihan can have it so that they can have unique traits, such as voice and movement. This is his favorite ability to use and takes the least amount of power,unless its across a large amount of space, such as a entire building or city block.
+ Shin Meikyō Shisui (True Soul Mirror-Deadly Water") is a technique that frightens the enemy with an overwhelming amount of "fear", thus making the enemy unable to sense Rihan's presence even if they were looking straight at him; this allows him to shift himself towards the enemies blind spot in most cases .This technique is reliant on Rihan to concentrate on his fear which means he must stay calm. When using this technique he will vanish from sight but his presence is still sensed by other. If Rihan has a is brake his concentration,or his power is disrupted technique is dissipated. This can be done by the opponent applying an even stronger power to disrupt the flow of the Rihans energy like during a limit brake. This usually manifest as the opponent seeing nothing but darkness around them. While nothing physical happens most opponents would become frightened as they see Rihan appear from the eternal blackness,while in reality he simply walks up and stabs them while they are distracted.
+ Shin Kyōka Suigetsu ( True Mirror Flower- Water Moon) This technique envelops Rihan in a wispy black smoke that clouds him from his opponent's vision and senses. It then begins creating illusions akin to an afterimage to confuse the opponent. He is then able to shift himself into the opponent's blind spot in order to strike swiftly and silently. While utilizing this technique, Rihan has shown that attacks will phase right through him as if his body was an illusion yet he can still receive the intended injury. He is able to use this technique to protect others that are in a close proximity to him or flee a battle when injured.The smoke-like vapors produced by this technique has a debilitating effect on those that Rihan does not consider his ally. 'Enemies' caught in the wispy smoke will begin feeling a tranquil effect on their body, effectively causing their bodily functions to begin slowing. There is no known way to avoid this effect upon this technique's activation as the smoke will continue to exude from Rihan's body, giving him an almost impenetrable defense. This can only be used in short burst,and is the signature technique of the Nurarihyon Clan.

Fran
She heard him from miles away, but him talking to her triggered her to calmly stand up and turn around to face the male. Yeah.. good question, actually.. What brings her here? She didn't exactly know yet. Travelling was one thing and so far she knows it's probably the only reason as well. "Travelling." She eventually said after thinking of an answer. Since she was alone, without Balthier to keep her company, she actually had no idea what to do. She was quite bored, honestly, but one wouldn't be able to read it from her facial expressions since she barely shows any.
Rihan studies her face,but couldn't read much from it. It took most of his concentration not to stare;for the woman was beautiful in his opinion. Regardless of this if he could convince her to join him it could make his current job a lot easier. He just needed to find out what he could offer her. As he speaks he places a Container on one of the pedestals near the pews. As he opens it a vast of Materia can be seen glowing inside. He starts fuse ing numerous fire Materia together and absorbs them into his gauntlets as he speaks to Fran.
Traveling you say? It seems we have something in common then. Truth be told its a little lonely going it alone....not having any friends or family by your side takes it toll after awhile. Forgive me if I'm getting a tad sentimental. My job usually doesn't allow me time for pleasantries such as this. he smiles at Fran and keeps fusing.
I'm currently on the search for a partner. Might you be interested?

"I cannot accept that offer." Fran spoke again, shaking her head a little to show she really can't join him. She was lonely too but she was waiting for Balthier and Vaan.. She promised she'd wait for them. "But thank you." She said as she gave a slight nod. She doesn't often get offers like this, but she'd have to say no to this one. She cannot just break a promise, especially to Balthier.
Rihan absorbs the rest of the Materia,and shrinks the case so that it fits in his pack better. He lets out a sigh,and glances toward the door were he could hear a small commotion. He returns his attention towards Fran.
How unfortunate guess I'll just go it alone for now. Good luck in you travels Miss. Maybe our paths will cross again someday. he smiles again and turns toward the door. As he does so his body is enveloped in smoke-like vapors and he vanishes. (Exit)

The blade embodies his "burning will for acknowledgement" and his fear.
-Kientō (輝炎濤, lit. Luminous Flame Wave)Gauntlets: A black, metal-clad pair of gauntlets reaching up towards the forearms, surrounded by rings of text. The gauntlets have large crests resembling Rihans Clan Symbol. They can ignite with his flame techniques and can be used for propulsion due to the black flame-patterned arm thrusters. When coupled with his air shoes he can move high speeds with great maneuverability.This is usually his go to weapon.
Rihan's Active abilities:
]
+ Kurotaiyō Shinken" (黒太陽真拳 Fist of the Black Sun): A signature magic style were Rihan creates several indigo flaming orbs that resemble small suns. These orbs rotate around the him and can be freely controlled to attack enemies.It is extremely reactive to water;on contact the steam released can easily blow an opponent away or allow Rihan cover to attack. Rihan can also combine several of his flaming orbs to create a single massive one, which then violently explodes with enough force and power to incinerate a large area around it. When this happens, steam can be seen emitting from the area. The Flame is a high-density form of energy that is refined from Rihans own soul. Due to the way it resonates with his emotions, it can be seen as a battle aura. However, unlike an aura which is a supernatural phenomenon seen in only a few individuals, the Flame is more akin to an actual flame, possessing its own destructive properties. The flames have the ability to manipulate outside flames as well. This includes moving, intensifying, and dispersing flames.
When it is influenced by his Fear, the area around his eyes becomes a more dark color and his flame a "colder" feel to it. Despite its less warm feel, the flame still becomes stronger than normal. When influenced with positive emotions like bravery or love, the flame glows with a bright golden color and causes Rihan to become much more hot blooded.
+ Osore (畏, Fear) The general concept of the "fear" revolves around being feared and respected by others. The user can naturally evoke and increase fear and horror in others causing the target’s brain to release fear-inducing chemicals and over load the senses or cause nightmares while they sleep. The victim’s perception may be altered, causing them see their environment as ominous and the user as dark and foreboding, or even seen as a monster. Users of this are adept at making themselves difficult to locate and, by extension, attack.The user can command detailed illusions,yet this power is more defensive and versatile than most others. Users are strongest against opponents who rely heavily on sight and considerably weaker against opponents with natural reflexes or heightened senses.
+ Construction: The basic power to turn illusions into real illusions.It manipulates form, shape, mass, feel and smell to be that of what the opponent views to be reality. Illusions built this way have a low density and, consequentially, a weak offensive power. In most cases, he creates an illusion in relation to the environment he and his target are in, which causes the latter to view a distorted version of the setting, either minimally or severely. In relation, Rihan can conjure physical illusions that range from non-moving objects, such as a wall, or moving objects, such as an human. In the case of an illusion that portrays a living creature, Rihan can have it so that they can have unique traits, such as voice and movement. This is his favorite ability to use and takes the least amount of power,unless its across a large amount of space, such as a entire building or city block.
+ Shin Meikyō Shisui (True Soul Mirror-Deadly Water") is a technique that frightens the enemy with an overwhelming amount of "fear", thus making the enemy unable to sense Rihan's presence even if they were looking straight at him; this allows him to shift himself towards the enemies blind spot in most cases .This technique is reliant on Rihan to concentrate on his fear which means he must stay calm. When using this technique he will vanish from sight but his presence is still sensed by other. If Rihan has a is brake his concentration,or his power is disrupted technique is dissipated. This can be done by the opponent applying an even stronger power to disrupt the flow of the Rihans energy like during a limit brake. This usually manifest as the opponent seeing nothing but darkness around them. While nothing physical happens most opponents would become frightened as they see Rihan appear from the eternal blackness,while in reality he simply walks up and stabs them while they are distracted.
+ Shin Kyōka Suigetsu ( True Mirror Flower- Water Moon) This technique envelops Rihan in a wispy black smoke that clouds him from his opponent's vision and senses. It then begins creating illusions akin to an afterimage to confuse the opponent. He is then able to shift himself into the opponent's blind spot in order to strike swiftly and silently. While utilizing this technique, Rihan has shown that attacks will phase right through him as if his body was an illusion yet he can still receive the intended injury. He is able to use this technique to protect others that are in a close proximity to him or flee a battle when injured.The smoke-like vapors produced by this technique has a debilitating effect on those that Rihan does not consider his ally. 'Enemies' caught in the wispy smoke will begin feeling a tranquil effect on their body, effectively causing their bodily functions to begin slowing. There is no known way to avoid this effect upon this technique's activation as the smoke will continue to exude from Rihan's body, giving him an almost impenetrable defense. This can only be used in short burst,and is the signature technique of the Nurarihyon Clan.

Inventory
||~Rihans Items -
Armor Fear Armor; Coat of Midnight : A trench coat with what appears to be the Kanji for Fear designed on its back designed by Rihan benefactor. Although not shown directly, the trench coat could be used as a strong defensive barrier against physical damage. The coat seems to greatly boosts his strength, speed, and stamina and. Not only is magic is darned into the seams to give the suit high elemental resistance,but a new material called Shinra (神羅 lit. Divine Silk?) was woven into it that seems to draw power from Chaos energy.When standing still it seems generate a cloak of mist for cosmetic effect.
Miscellaneous Items Lockpicks: A small device to open locks, stored in his shoes and sleeves.
-Video editing software: An extremely powerful, high-tech video editing program. It is capable of taking input from several video feeds at once and splicing pieces of them into one falsified, impossible-to-distinguish video.
-Remote cameras: Several flight-enabled camera units used to carry out surveillance on many areas at once.Severely weak to electricity.
-Shadow Crystal Fog bombs :The Shadow Crystal Fog is, as its name implies, made from Shadow Crystals, and creates a dense cloud of darkness. While one might try to blow the fog away with wind,light magic is the only way to truly eradicate the fog.This is usually used in a smoke-bomb fashion to escape battle.
-Inhibitor Rings: Black gloves with crimson circles designs. These circles have lines sticking out of the bottom leading to golden bracelets. The bracelets are in truth Inhibitor Rings to keep Rihans power under control while he sleeps. Being an illusionist Rihan needs insurance to make sure his powers don't spiral out of control. Otherwise,he wouldn't be able to distinguish reality from his own illusions.
- Hover Shoes: The shoes are mainly white, with black heels and soles, and what seems to be a red strip of metal lines the bottom of each shoe. The bottom of each shoe is black, and has a pattern of small "jets" which uses to propel himself forward and levitate in the air.Whenever Rihan is running, his movement creates the "illusion" that he is skating. This is because the jets on the soles of the Hover Shoes propel him forward at a constant pace, but he moves as if he is simply skating along the ground.These shoes were also a gift from his boss. He can even channel his flames into them for devastating kicks.
Focus Lens:contacts that allow him to analyze situations and individuals, finding out information through a wireless data bank .They help assist Rihan in finding out necessary information, strategies, and references, on prominent figures of the world as well as world news. By implementing his Fear he can control most people by reading their darkest and most inner thoughts and can use them to manipulate the person. These Lenses also enable the Rihan to see through Illusions and reveal the nature of opponents attacks. They also serve to let Rihan aim extremely accurately at an enemy by taking into account factors like gravity and magnetic fields when aiming fire balls.

A brown haired teen was laying down on a pew in the Church of Midgar. His eyes were shut and his glasses hanging off the side of the one infront of him.A yawn escaped his lips as he stretched out," I really did miss sleeping in these things. Kind of odd that noone noticed me here, but. " He sat up now and smiled happily," But I guess thats expected from being a Nobody for so long." He looked around, wondering if anyone else was here. Didnt see that way though, "I guess its a good thing I dont wanna freak anyone out."

Luna had made her way through Midgar, checking out every corner and alley of the area before she moved on to the Midgar Church. It was.. quite a silent place.. calming.. Luna entered the church as she took off the hood from her head so she could look around more freely. The church was.. beautiful. And Luna actually never entered a church since did have any beliefs nor she ever prayed. Things happen for a reason and she doesn't want to 'ask' a certain person up above in the sky for help. She just watches where the wind will bring her and never even thinks about turning back. All she wants to do is move forward.. leaving the past behind. She shook those thoughts off her.. damn, this church is making her think all.. sentimental. Luckily nothing is happening with her facial expressions, she isn't really the type of girl to cry, no matter what. She promised that one person to stay strong for as long as she lives.. only for that one certain person. Luna lost herself in thoughts, not even realizing that she moved to sit onto one of the pews. Her silver fringe gently moved over to cover her eyes which Luna didn't even notice since her eyes were looking downward, at her feet.

Drako Constantine
"Don't run away from living! That's an order!!"
The doors to the church once again opened, and this time stepped through a rather... different looking person. A man with blue hair, pale skin adorned with red markings, and... animal ears as well as a wolf tail that gently swished along behind him as he walked in. He wore dark, rather intimidating armor, along with a lance on his back. His overall look perhaps made him appear more sinister than he actually was, since the last thing that Drako Constantine was was sinister. "I don't get why there are no services in a church..." He said under his breath to himself, before he noticed that he wasn't alone here. "...?" He didn't think anyone actually came to this place except him. It was a run-down, old and worn out church full of holes and whatnot, but somehow it felt peaceful here, which was why he had come here more than once. "..." He could tell that the girl was rather... down. He paused for a moment, before approaching her. "Ahem! Miss! Congratulations, because you are the one-hundredth visitor to this church today! As a special reward, you get to go on a single date with the most dashing, gallant and handsome person in this world! ....That would be me, naturally." ....Okay so Drako wasn't very good at making people feel better, but this was very obviously his attempt at doing just that. He did have a tenancy to make people laugh, so maybe that would happen here. "You, uh.... you're totally honored and stuff, right? Haha...." Wait, did he seriously just ask a random stranger on a date? Well, surely she would just shrug him off or think it was some joke. He had never exactly asked anyone out before, after all, and he didn't notice from far away just how attractive this girl was. So if he had the common sense most people were given at birth, maybe he would've thought twice before making a fool out of himself like that. But luckily for entertainment's sake, Drako didn't really have much of that.

"Just to think I suppose.. Don't know why else I'd stop here." Luna replied to the male who first spoke to her before there was another long silence, broken by the sound of the church doors being opened. She didn't look up, she couldn't be assed to do so.. but that was until the man spoke to her. Hold on, did he just ask her out? Just like that? Luna shook her head and pinched the bridge of her nose before she lifted her head a little. "I always wondered why I am still single.. and you are probably the perfect example of why I reject most men." Luna said before she looked up with her two-toned eyes. She started to believe that her looks were a curse since she only seemed to draw men's attention.. and it just happened to be the kind of men who approach her in the wrong way.

"Don't run away from living! That's an order!!"
...Yeah, that's about what the Miqo'te expected to hear. His ears and tail dropped flat for a moment, out of rather visible letdown. Not really at being rejected, but more that he didn't make her feel any better whatsoever. But then his they perked back up and... he started laughing. Not exactly the typical thing that someone would do after being so harshly shot down, but he wasn't a typical person. "Hahaha! That's not the worst thing a girl's ever said to me... which... is kind of sad when you think that I don't ask out a whole lot of girls. Or any, for that matter." Ouch, that one kinda hurt now that he thought about it. The way she spoke to him had hurt him quite a bit, but he was putting up a front right now to try to make her feel better still. "W-well... if you say no to that then uh..." ...what else could he do? "...Oh! Perhaps I could dance a little? Er, I guess that sounds weird when I say it that way..." He grunted, turning away from the girl and putting a finger to his chin. Crap, what do girls find funny? Oh wait! "Hey!" He turned around, making his tail stretch around his waist, grabbing it and holding it up. "Look! I have a tail! Isn't that weird?! And look at my ears! Freaky, right? ...Wait." Idiot, that won't make her laugh, that'll just scare her or something. "Uhhh..." Letting his tail fall back behind him, he thought for a moment. "Uhhh... Hey, want to hear a joke about pizza? Oh wait, I can't.... it's...................................... too cheesy...." Saying that one just made him feel stupid. "...Get it? Because it's... pizza..." Maybe he should just go... It wouldn't be as bad if it were just her, but two people now were seeing this rather... stupid side of him.

Luna folded her arms over her chest and shook her head lightly before she stood up to face the man who was obviously trying to make her laugh or impress her in any kind of way. "Your ears and tail are not that special to me since I have them too." She moved her hand towards her own shadow as she was.. sort of deforming her shadow into an animal. A dog-like animal that is. "And those jokes would probably only make a ten-year old child laugh." She studied the male for a bit and just like any other man she met he's quite handsome, but it just doesn't fit his.. stupidity that he's showing at the moment. "Entertaining someone is probably your weakest spot so far as I can see."

Drako Constantine
"Don't run away from living! That's an order!!"
Drako blinked, seeming to be taken by surprise when she said she had the same features as him. "You...? Are you...? No, you're not from Eorzea, are you? You're not a Miqo'te, so then, there are others like us? ...Huh. I wonder how many worlds there are..." He wondered to himself. Glancing to her shadow, he blinked a bit as the animal seemed to be a canine. "So you're like me, then. I'm a wolf." Well, he had the tail, family and spirit of one. He couldn't exactly transform into one like she could. But he didn't know she had that ability. "Yeah well..." He rubbed the back of his head. "Sorry... Usually the ones I try to make feel better are younger." Crossing his arms, he glanced away. "Most of the people I've met here are a bit nicer, so it worked fine enough on them. Most people in this world, aside from Avalanche, don't talk to me a whole lot though, so I guess I can't say for sure how nice they are. ..." Sighing, he looked back at her. "...Sorry. You just looked down so I wanted to help. I hope I didn't offend you with the whole... date thing. I wasn't trying to... I dunno." Grunting a bit, he shrugged. "Where I'm from, when I wasn't at war myself I was trying to console or help people who lost people during the wars. Guess it's just kinda become a habit of mine. ...But I can be entertaining." That last part sounded noticeably less serious than the rest of his words. "That joke is a total killer for most people." Not really. "...Urgh. Look, if I'm bothering you that much just tell me to leave."
