Reno walked alone on the streets of Midgar. His jacket open and his shirt untucked, typical for his lazy look of a Turk, but truthfully, he was far from lazy, in fact, he was second in command, and very loyal to his job. He just didn't look the part. Anyways, along the way on his innocent walk he stopped and looked at a building. Seventh Heaven. With a sigh and lowered his head and let his eyes sink to the ground. He always felt the need to apologize to Cloud, and Zack and anyone else he tried to hurt in the past. It wasn't his favorite order to receive from ShinRa, to hunt down Cloud and Zack, and...well it just wasn't good, and Reno always regretted that, but when you're as dedicated to your work as Reno was...no questions would be asked when given an order.
Reno hesitated weather to go in or not. Would Cloud be angry? Would he even be here? If not...Would Tifa be mad? With a sigh Reno smirked to himself. "Might as well get this over with." He said as he walked into Seventh Heaven and walked over to the bar and took a seat. Of course he would probably see Tifa first, she ran the bar herself, so maybe...this wouldn't be as bad as the threatening images Reno had come up with in that firey red head of his.

Tifa smiled as always when costumers were around. She took the orders, prepared them and handed them with a warm and friendly smile. The bar was just as crowded as ever, but Tifa didn't really mind. In fact she enjoyed working even when at the end of the day she would be exhausted and unable to move a muscle.
But she wasn't alone she had help, another good thing in her life. Marlene and Denzel were always there to lend a hand when she needed 'those two kids were always eager to help' she thought, even Cloud did at times when he wasn't to busy with his deliveries.
Tifa paused lost in her own thoughts but only for a moment before the sound of the door opening brought her back to reality. "Welcome to......" She turned with another friendly smile at the one who entered but it instantly faded when she saw who it was. "Reno...... what are you doing here?"

"Welcome to......" "Reno...... what are you doing here?"
Oh how the warm welcome turned sour! Not that Reno expected anyone to be...utterly happy to see him, especially after all the rotten Turk stuff he had done. He wanted to apologize, thats truely the reason he came in, but he couldn't help but crack a smile when Tifa's smile faded after she realized it was none other than Reno the Turk. "What? Can I not come into the best bar in town?" He grinned some, now probably wasn't the time to joke around with Tifa. "I did come in here...for a reason...I..." How was he going to admit how wrong ShinRa was for all this? How sorry he was? Would it even make a difference?
Reno shook his head trying to find even the simplest of words. "I wanted to apologize." That was it really. Thats the reason he came in. "...I...feel bad for what ShinaRa's done....what I've done...I hope, you can forgive me. This is a hard thing for me to do...going out of my way...out of ShinRa's way....to apologize for something that was so wrong of me to even think about doing." He sighed letting his eyes sink again. Apologies were never Reno's thing, but this was going good, at least he thought it was. "But...you know us Turks...loyalty to our job is important..." He shrugged some looking back at Tifa.

Tifa frowned only slightly at Reno's joke and took a step back. She knew all to well who Turks were and their obligation to Shina. was that the reason why he was there? Did Shinra send him there? She considered that to be thereason for him to come to her bar, after what he did he probably knew he wasn't welcomed there.
When he apologized she was shocked never thinking that a Turk actually cared about the actions they took. For some time she even considered them without emotion and that reminded her or a horrid memory of the man who took away her home and father, Sephiroth.
Tifa listened to his apology but didn't accept it. Was he really sorry for what he did? "Saying sorry now after everything.... for some reason I don't believe you. Did Shinra sent you here to spy on me and Cloud or something? You don't care if what your doing is right or wrong. You just do what your told without a second thought....... which is why I can't accept you apology." She paused for a moment turning to glance at her other costumers who were too busy with their meals to even noticed the Turk walk in.

Reno expected this. In fact, this was better than when he expected. That was a plus at least. He shook his head. "No...ShinRa didn't send me. I came on my own accord." Reno mumbled. Of course she wouldn't accept his apology. Why would she? It's not like Reno had anything to prove his apology to be true. So with a slight chuckle Reno got off his seat and headed towards the door. "You don't have to accept my apology...just know that it was a real apology...Every word. True." He said walking out the door of Seventh Heaven feeling slightly defeated. That didn't go as well as he had hoped, and he saw no sign of Cloud, so maybe his idea of apologizing wasn't a good one.

So he came on his own, Still she couldn't accept his apology, did he really regret what he did? 'It didn't show there was no meaning, emotion behind his apology just words......' Tifa thought in silence as she stood there. "After everything that you did to me Cloud and the others you want us to forgive you? How can I know that what your saying is not just empty words and that you would do everything again without a moments thought?" Tifa tried to keep her tone calm as she replied, but there was a hint of her anger there as it escaped her grip.
She noticed him head for the door and let out breath she didn't even realize she was holding. 'Its a good thing Cloud isn't here' She thought knowing that Cloud wouldn't have allowed the Turk to walk out the bar so easily, but starting a fight wasn't something she wanted either. Calming herself down Tifa finally turned to the costumer that started calling for her without turning to glance at Reno.

"After everything that you did to me Cloud and the others you want us to forgive you? How can I know that what your saying is not just empty words and that you would do everything again without a moments thought?"
Reno didn't bother to respond, he didn't want to upset Tifa, or be around when Cloud or someone else who hated him came around. So it was probably best to keep on walking and don't turn back. As he was walking he was trying to think, it was really bothering him that he could not come up with a better heartfelt apology. His own fault. He did mean everything he said to Tifa, but apparently it just wasn't good enough. Reno just shook his head and pushed up the goggles on his forehead. "You're a genius Reno. Pure. Genius. Can't even come up with a good enough apology." He grumbled to himself before he heard...screaming?! What now?
His blue eyes scanned the scene but nothing came across as alarming, until a giant Bohamut SIN appeared! This again? Really? It flew over head back towards where Reno came. Was this thing targeting Cloud and Tifa? Reno knew he should just keep walking, but instead and made a sharp turn back around and ran back for Seventh Heaven. He was fast mind you that, but hopefully he was fast enough to beat the monster to Seventh Heaven, he had to warn someone.
With a slam to the door Reno just about fell into Seventh Heaven's door way with heaving breaths. "Tifa....Bohamut..." Reno gasped for breaths. Would she believe this? Hopefully the agonizingly loud screech the thing made was enough proof.
((i remember this monster from AC so i used it. Hope thats okay))

Tifa sighed in relief once Reno left and turned her attention to care for the costumers that entered, but even while working her mind was else where. She considered the thought of telling Cloud about this her meeting with the Turk but thought against it. There was no reason to bring unpleasant memories back, especially when no harm was done. 'Its not worth mentioning and upsetting him' she concluded before turning to the costumer that called for her.
A moment later Reno an back in shouting something about Bohamut. She turned to stare at him as so everyone else and for a moment the bar was filled with silence. "What..." She asked but before an answer could reach her ears screams of the costumers caught her of guard as they all rushed out of the bar. She stumbled back trying to balence herself before turning to the Turk in the doorway. "Reno this better not be one of your tricks."

"What..." "Reno this better not be one of your tricks."
Reno was pinned to the door as the customers ran out screaming. Whoops, not a subtle way to tell her but at least they believed him and got the hell out of there. Reno looked at Tifa to see if she was serious. Did she not believe him now?! Reno frowned. "No this isn't-" And ear splitting roar was heard now, making reno clamp his hands over his ears. "Does this sound like a trick to you?!" He yelled over the monstrous roar, once it stopped, he looked outside and his face was full of worry. The thing probably was targeting Cloud and Tifa seeing as it was just waiting for one of the two to pop out, most likely Cloud.
This thing didn't look like it would be patient. If No one came out, then it would definately go in and wreck the place to no end. Reno didn't hesitate as the monster looked like it would just barrel right through seventh heaven, he ran back inside the bar and grabbed Tifa's arm before tugging her out of the bar before the monster crushed her in it.

Tifa gasped the moment she saw the summon heading their way. This wasn't a trick. She stood there shocked for a moment not knowing what to do. She couldn't let it come in and wreck the bar. It was the only home she, Cloud and the kids had left. She had to do something fight that thing or stall it until Cloud returns form his deliveries. She considered that to be her best option but before she could make a move her arm was pulled causing her to stumble as she ran outside the bar.
"We got to do something to stop it....." She said making her mind up as she pulled out her leather gloves. She wasn't sure if Reno would fight alongside her or just leave like most Turks did at times, but even if she was alone she won't hesitate while fighting. She took her fighting stance but turned to glance at the red headed Turk next to her to see what action he would take.

"We got to do something to stop it....."
Reno glanced at Tifa, looks like she was ready to take on the Bohamut, but Reno? With his lanky physique...and lack of magic powers he was worthless in these kind of battles, at least one his feet on the ground. How could he help? He had his little electro mag rod and that was it. but then it came to him. "Give me 3 minutes at the most." He said before bolting off as fast as he ccould run down the street. The bohamut started attacking things by now, thankfully not seventh heaven, and hopefully Reno had enough...supplies to do this.
He ran down the block and turned a corner, quickly climbing up the fire escape of a building before he reached the roof, low and behold his helicopter was there, he landed it there when he stopped here to apologize, one of his better ideas...take the helicopter, and he was thankful he did. Reno got in the chopper and was ready to roll. The copter took flight and all its weaponry was fully stocked. Excellet. Once in view of the bohamut Reno decided, maybe this would prove his apology. With that he shot a couple distracted shots at the bohamut, to lure it away from seventh heaven and Tifa herself. Once Reno got the bohamuts attention he grinned as he landed the chopper next to Tifa, the monster had taken off for only a moment to maybe try and surprise attack Reno. The entrance to the passengers side of the helicopter slid open. "Want a lift?"

He left? Tifa thought as she turned to look at him as he ran down the road before Bahomut got her attention again. She sighed lifting her fist up before charging with kicks and punches at it, but nothing she did seemed to work. It only distracted his attention from the terrified citizens and angered it, but that was her goal to stop that thing from hurting anyone else.
Tifa prepared herself ready for another round of attack when she saw someone open fire at it leading the summon away from her and the bar. She squinted trying to get a glimpse of who it was and saw him "Reno" She smiled but shook her head in disbelieve he was trying to help her? "I thought you left" She said getting into the helicopter "Uh you know how to fly this thing right?"

"I thought you left" "Uh you know how to fly this thing right?"
Reno scoffed a bit of mock horror. "Im not that unreliable am I?" He grinned as the passengers side entrance slid shut and locked. Reno strapped a seatbelt on, almost like a safety harness and let the helicopter lift up into the air again. "Of course I know how to fly this. I'm a carefully trained pilot, best one ShinRa has." He seemed a little smug about that, this was HIS helicopter he was the only real pilot among the Turks...it gave him something to be proud of. With one hand Reno was stearing so to speak, and with the other he was putting on what looked like a headset with a microphone on it before handing one to Tifa, It was a better way to communicate inside the loud chopper.
Reno looked at all the ammunition buttons on the dashboard and grinned. Surely some of these things could take down the Bohamut easilly...like...a missle maybe? He stared out the windshield and saw the Bohamut rise into the air towards them. "Hold on!" He called before jerking the stearing gears hard to the left to dodge the Bohamut from crashing right into them. As the Bohamut turned back around to face Reno and Tifa Reno's smug smile came back as he eyed a button on the dashboard. "It's my turn now." He said before launching off a series of tiny missles, they were small but packed a bigger punch than one giant missle. They were just more...portable for ShinRa's sake.

"Well your a Turk.... I don't know what to expect." Tifa explained as she nodded at his words. He seemed proud to be a good pilot one of the best according to his words. She didn't doubt that he was seeing as he knew how to fly the helicopter and avoid any attacks from the summon, but she wasn't going to admit it. "Just don't crash this thing okay?" She added taking the helmet and placing it one before bracing herself as they took a sharp turn to the left.
Tifa sighed in relief once they dodged another attack. She turned to glance out the window as Bohamut who looked like he was ready to launch another attack at them "Reno do something....." She uttered in panic and soon sow missile fire and blow at it. "Did it work?" She asked leaning closer trying to guess as she waited for the smoke to clear.

"Well your a Turk.... I don't know what to expect." "Just don't crash this thing okay?" "Reno do something....." "Did it work?"
Reno kept his smug grin going a bit. "I won't crash don't worry." He assured her as he kept complete control of the helicopter. The missles seemed to let off alot of smoke after they went off on the Bohamut. Reno Kept his eyes locked on the smoke as it started to clear. No attacks on them, maybe the missles did work. That would be one sad case of a summon then. The smoke was completely cleared and Reno didn't see the Bohamut, bad sign. Reno scanned anywhere his eyes could see around the helicopter, then something strong hit the copter from underneath making it jerk upwards. "OKAY THAT WAS NOT ME!" He confirmed quickly as the copter continued to shake a bit."Argh! Hey! This is not a toy!" He growled trying to regain control of the controls.
The bohamut had stabbed its claws into the bottom engine of Reno's helicopter. Not a good thing, but there was another engine that was unharmed. So they would be fine if they landed soon. "Apparently the missles did very little." Reno grumbled.
"Time for the big guns then." He sighed before a smile crept back to his face. "If this doesn't work...Nothing will." He shrugged before locking on the targeted bohamut. "Say bye bye you stupid summon." He growled before launching off missles again, with a round of fire from the guns attached to the helicopter, followed by a bomb, made my Rude typically, which was launched into the bohamuts face. And with a BOOM of the bomb and everything else launched at it...the bohamut was defeated and it disappeared.
