Story:

It's two years after the events of Advent Children, and now Midgar seems to be at peace...
...But in the deep, dark corners of the world, a new force is rising...
...Shinra incorperations is building up to the amount of power it had, and not even the rebuilt Avalanche reballion can stop them...
...plus to make matter worse, there world is seemingly getting worse everyday, not only in a physical sense, but in a mental sense too...
...there has been a recent uprising in robberies, terrorist attacks, and other strange occurances...
...what is the world coming too?

The news was all over the world, and everyone could tell the world was coming to a difficult point in it's time. Mass murders, carbombs, the terrorist orginization of Tenrin was pulling out all the stops, and Shinra was using the insuing chaos to sneak back into the business world, making it one of the top energy dispersing companies. Avalanche was in a grave situation, or at least the remnants of Avalanche. They had no choices. Except one.

"Hey Cloud, this is Tifa, are you busy? Could you stop by the 'hideout' later, there's something important we need to talk about. Bye." The phone beeped and Cloud sped off towards midgar, riding on his Fenrir bike at top speeds...

The same message went out to the entire old crew, and soon everyone was having a little reunion...
They swiftly had a meeting to try and decide what to do, and finally came up to one answer.

They needed help.

Basically, the story is you are one of the new recruits the restored Avalanche Rebellion. We all start heading towards the hideout, which is Tifa's bar.

You may use any character format for your sheets that you want, but just make it descriptive please.

History/Bio: Nothing is relatively important about Xavier's past life, he grew up in a kind-enough and loving home, though he and his family struggled through poverty. Xavier seeing crime as the only way out of the slums started doing just that, robing stores, muggings, anything to make a few extra dollars. He was fourteen at the time when he and a few others attempted to rob the wrong person, the man took out a small fire-arm and discharged on Xavier and the others with him, only one bullet connected with Xavier but it hit his left arm in just the right position, rendering it un-operable, a dead weight.

That loss was enough for Xavier, and he retreated to an honest life. Over the years he began to follow a small group named 'Avalanche' and a particular person, Barret Wallace and his gun-arm. At 18 Xavier underwent the operation to remove his left arm and replace it with a Gattling Gun, just like Barret, who soon became Xavier's idol.

Hutch...It's approved! nice character! I like 'm already. We'll start the game up if one more person joins. If someone doesn't join in a day or two, we'll just start it up. Oh, and whatever story characters that aren't taken, will be NPCs that I control, or send off into missions.

Okay, heres an announcement for everyone. If you are going to leave for a bit/permanetely, then post it here so we all know it!

OOC: Sorry for double posting. Let's start.

:::Denzal:::

Denzal pulled up to the front door of "Tifa's Seventh Heaven" And parked his modified Fenrir motorcycle. He stepped off the shining black and crimson vehicle and walked up to the front door, checking down by sides of the street before pulling the door open and sliding carefully inside. When the door shut on the inside a small bell rang, and Tifa popped up from behind the counter. "Aaah, hello there. Welcome to Tifa's Seventh Heaven, I'm Tifa. What can I get for you toda--"

Denzal interupted her, "Cut the act, I'm here for the Avalanche meeting."
She jumped at his forward-ness, but then nodded and opened the counter up so he could come in. He stepped in and before he could ask her where they were going, they were dropping through the floor on a small elevator built into the ground. The elevator came to a stop and Denzal stepped off. They were in an underground room with a large tv monitor, and computers everywhere. In the middle was a round table with a map of Midgar spread across it, and at the table sat some blonde guy, Barret, who had been the person who had hired him, a ninja girl, a dog-thing, a cat--who appeared to be talking--and an old gasser.

"Hey guys, a new recruits here." Barret was the first to rise as he gave a mock salute and started introducing the other members of Avalanche. "This is Cloud, he can be an a**hole sometimes, but you'll get used to it. This is Red XIII, just call him Red. This is Cait Sith," Cait sith gave a little bow, "This is Cid, another son of a b****, and Yuffi, don't leave your materia alone with her. I'm Barret, and that's Tifa. You've already met us." Denzal went around the room introducing himself and shaking hands, then finally took a seat and watched as Cloud and Barret had an arm wrestling match. Tifa had gone upstairs again, probably to watch her bar.

OOC: Tekaal and Aldia come into the story later. Once again, Barret is a heavy curser, so don't be surprised if you see some more cursing for no reason.

Nakadai Kurosawa walked into a bar in Midgar. As soon as the bartender asked him about a drink, he, instead, replied,"What is the name of this bar?"
"Why, it's the Chocobo Pub, sir. Why do you ask?"
Nakadai replied,"I apologise, could you direct me to the 'Seventh Heaven?'"
"Certainly, sir, it's just two blocks over, on the corner."
"Thanks" Damn. That's the fourth wrong bar so far. the meeting was surely already started. now he'd have to sneek into it. He rounded a corner and suddunly felt really stupid. there was a sizable sign that said,"Tifa's Seventh Heaven" 'Nice, moron.' he thought to himself. And he walked in. there was nobody around, and he could have easily pillaged the place, but for now, these people were allies. so he sat down and listened........listened.........listened.........!!!! Voices, Downstairs. Only one problem, no stairs. 'Aha!' he thought,' A secret meeting room.' He walked the perimeter of the floor and suddenly he found it. There was a crease in the floor, very minute, but enough of a crack for there to be an elevator here. he searched this thing that resembled a pinball machine for a button or something."Nice setup!" he said as he found the switch. immediatly, the elevator started its way down to the basement...

Everyone below in the meeting room's eyes darted to the lowering Elevator. Tifa wasn't on it, but instead, some strange kid. "Where's Tifa!" Cloud jumped to his feet defensevely drawing his buster sword from a shealth on his back, and glared at the new arrival. He didn't look like a shinra officer, but you could never tell who the shinra was hiring nowadays.

Denzal also jumped to his feet drawing the small pistol hanging on his thigh. He didn't bring in his gunblade, which was still outside in his motorcycles hidden compartments, and aimed the small gun at the stranger. "Freeze."

The rest of the room was on their feet, weapons drawn and aimed at the new arrival. Questions flung through the air like confeddi, until finally Tifa appeared above the elevator, and jumped in, nearly landing on Nakadai's left foot, then she whipped around and went to slam an open palm into the materia thief's shoulder, in an attempt to push him against the wall.

OOC: I'm sorry, but did you even read the afore posts? Were currently all busy dealing with Sketchies character. Another thing: Please don't control any other character besides your own, unless I give you permission. I'm only controling other NPC's until their taken. Just modify your post an enter differently, so that it doesn't clash with the story as it is going already. Just make sure to read the post entirely before posting.

OOC: I'll try to piece it together a bit, kay? Just before vincent came in...


Nakadai didnt expect this reaction. All of the people down in the basement jumped to attention and drew their weapons, but as soon as he was about to statet his name, a girl jumped down the elevator shaft and almost landed on him. as he moved out of the way, he exclaimed " Geez, people, you ask me to come and this is how i'm greeted? Let me introduce myself. i am Nakadai Kurosawa of Wutai, and Shin-Ra killed my father. I wish to avenge him in any way possible,"he stepped off the elevator,"so if you would kindly, sheath your weapons, i would most appreciate it." He gave a quick sarcastic smile and then took a seat in the corner just as the elevator started to come back down again...

OOC: Alright, nice patchwork. We'll go from there, and everyone returned to being calm, then vincent came down and they jumped to their weapons again, etc.

Tifa nodded to him, "Sorry. With Shinra's latest activity, were all a little jumpy. You can never trust people nowadays."

Barret snorted. "D*** straight were jumpy. Sit down, kid, and get to know the crew." In a few seconds, Barret had introduced everyone to Nakadai, and then everyone returned to their silent chit chat, barely noticing Vincent's silent "hi".

Denzal stood up and extended his hand to Nakadai, "Hello. I am Denzal Shriedor, another new recruit like you. You said something about your father being killed by the Shinra?" He shook his head. Shinra. What violant murderers and hypocrites they are... He thought to himself.

Outside Tifa's seventh heaven, a small group of Shinra patrol officers wandered the seemingly abandoned streets of the slummish area below the city.

Tifa came up the elevator just in time to see the appearance of three officers opening the door. They looked at her, stunned to see that she had...come out of the floor? Right next to the counter where a pinball machine sat?

"What the he--" They raised their weapons as Tifa flew at them and struck the first two across the skulls, knocking them unconcious. She kicked the weapon out of the third soldier, and then grabbed him in a halfnelson, pulling the captive towards the elevator. "Guys, Shinra sent out patrols!! help me get the unconcious down there!"

Cloud instantly was by Tifa's side, helping her drag the bodies down the elevator.

"uh-oh, looks like we might have some trouble guys!" Yuffi said as she saw Cloud and Tiffa dragging the unconcious.

"Forget it, just keep hidden while Tifa watches the bar!" Cloud stated, dropping the unconcious and beginning his work on tying up the unconcious patrollers. "We need to start our breifing on the mission, Barret."

"Whatever, dumba***, just hurry up and take a seat. All this happaned in a matter of seconds, and Denzal sat down, offering the seat next to him to Nakadai.

OOC: *Phew* Sorry, had to do a lot of stuff in that post, just so the story would move forward quicker. Whata' rush!

OOC: Yes, Tekaal Brimstone is my character, and I'll bring him in to the story later on. My characters are Tekaal Brimstone, Denzal Schriedor, and Andia Silverwind. The only character you control is Vincent, unless you want to add another character to your plate, such as Yuffi or someone that already isn't being used. I'm going to message Hutch to tell him we've started RPing.

Xavier walked down the street of the slumish area below the real city. A grin spread across Xavier's face when he bumped into a smaller fellow going the opposite direction, the little man doubled back on Xavier a curse barley out of his mouth before he saw Xavier's left arm.

A stunned look and a quick muttered apology for getting in the way and the man turned and ran off at nearly a jogging pace. Xavier only grinned more, patting his arm he chuckled slightly and quietly said, "That's a good boy." he considered it his boy. for it was no longer his arm at all, in-fact it was entirely cybor-netic. With a large rotating chain gun where his hand and fore-arm should be. The grin and good humor died quickly, he had set out for a job.

Reaching into his pocket with his right still normal arm he pulled out a crumpled note with some scribbled instructions to meet some one at a bar in the slums by the name of "Teifa's Seventh Heaven." Xavier had a good suspicion of what it was about, Avalanche. Whom his one and only idol, Barret Wallace, lead. A few more corners 'rounded and he came face to face with the bar.

Xavier stepped inside to a bar room all but empty expert for one black haired woman standing behind the bar, 'Teifa, just like the sign.' Xaiver mused as he took a seat at the bar giving TeifaXavier a smile.

Tifa smiled back at him. "What can I help you with sir?" She noticed the gun-arm and smiled. "Did you come for our special...'avalanche' brew..." She winked at him. She only knew three people who had gun arms: Barret Wallace, an' old friend of Barret's who had commited suicide, and another fellow with a gun arm who went by the name of Xaviar Trimeth. This was most likely him.

((OOC: Terribly sorry for my absence, hope it did not affect anything.))

Xavier looked back at Teifa smiling still and said, "I believe I have." He leaned back on the bar stool, stretching his arm and gun high up, obviously showing off. He considered asking if Barret was truly here, after all Teifa had so plainly stated that this was in-fact where Avalanche was or at least where they were having their latest meeting.

He decided he would, but not flat out, "Teifa? Right. Yeah thought so. Any way, is uhm.. the 'Big Man' here?"
