The City of Midgar, though not heavily populated due to the Mako radiation, is flooded with the infected that have somehow made their way to the city from the outer regions. Their activity does not appear to be what is was in the populated cities, on the contrary, they appear to be rebuilding the reactors as well as the cannon itself. Already several of the reactors have come back online and the cannon has been repositioned skyward. The infected, despite their lack of higher brain functions, are working extremely fast.
Where Loci is however, is unknown.

::Eva floats above the city hidden in the clouds as she watches the infected reactivating the reactors::
Why does this seem so familiar....
::She continued flying around the city still hidden in the clouds observing but on guard::
I have a nagging feeling Loci is here so I can't leave my guard down not for a second but I won't attack yet....
::She looks at where the reactors are all connected to and then frowned::
It couldn't be that simple could it? Hmmm....I need to get in for a closer look but how...

*Eva didn't notice the presence behind her until a hand was placed on her shoulder and a familiar voice enter her ears* "Eva? What are you doing here?"

On the platform Hojo once used appears Loci with a hue of radience around him, his eyes glow with a internal yellow light, the same sickly yellow his eyes once resonated. He slowly and carefully walks up to the control panels and begins to punch in keys.
One reactor to go... He turns around and raises his arms and head to the ever dark sky. "See me and behold! You can still stop me, why won't you stop me?! Do you need to see your creations destroyed, a world beyond help before you confront me!"

::Iole sweeps over the city, Natalia and Cherai on her back. Natalia is maintaining cloud cover over them::
We'll have to stay hidden until The Hijrah arrives.

Cherai nods, peering down through the clouds, trying to see the city.

Loci's ears perk for a moment. "Do I dare say, is that a demon?" He sniffs the air. "It is, it is! With a dragon and a unfamilar girl. Guess it's time to get started..."
Loci raises his hand to the sky. "Hot Zone!" A wave of strange air shoots up from around the platform, blanketing the city in a fog of strange pestilence. Upon entering the air around the city, the 'heroes' skin, eyes, and throat begin to tingle. Even Natalia and Iole feel it, the mild sensation of something invisable laying an assualt on their bodies.
"Just a few more minutes..."

The Hijrah soars into position near the outskirts of the Shinra complex and goes into a hover.
Miguel, Nahla, and Vincent stand on the 01 Deck, beside the outboard hatch, already in their gear. The same as in Deling, SCRUMBERs and the thick shiney overals. Nahla is armed with a large assualt rifle with HE grenade launcher attacked to the stock while Miguel is armed with his saber and a machine pistol. Vincent checks his two pistols, making sure they're loaded and in optimal condition.

::Natalia is mutttering some inaudable words. Her voice becomes deeper, and hiss-like. The clouds thicken around them, and the moisture from them seems to cool her & the others off::
Damn. He already knows I'm here.
::The clouds begin to spark with purple lightning::
Time for a change of tactics. Cherai, it's your turn. Show me what you can do.
::She glances sideways to see the Hijrah coming into view::
Right on time.

::Eva almost shrieked feeling Jas's hand on her shoulder::
"Ugh don't scare me like that!!!!"
::She noticed everyone' s elses prescence and curses slightly::
"He doesn't know I'm here but apparently he's gonna be focused on everyone else..."
::She looked at one of the reactors one of the undead hasn't made it to yet and quickly flew towards it::
I can still make it and freeze the damn thing in place....I'll destroy it if I have to...
::She quickly made it to the door and saw the infected headed her direction before she went into the reactor and closed the door behind her::
"Blizzaga...."
::She quickly froze the door into place and muttered a slight aeroa spell that would come up if for whatever the reason the door gets broken down::
"Now to destroy this damn place..."
::She quickly runs deep to find the reactor core::

(Oh no you don't!)
As Eva runs deeper into the reactor, she hears the pecular sound of something flying through the air. Suddenly, two objects pierce her body, the jitte's. They raise her body above the ground, then with incredable speed shoot her up through the reactor, sending her crashing through the facility then flinging her body skyward only to shoot her down onto the platform where Loci stands, they pull out and fly off elsewhere.
The next moment, she feels a grip around her neck, the sharp prick of long talons piercing her skin as she is pushed hard against a metal wall. "I've been waiting for you, daughter of War!" Loci says with a snake like hiss, his animalistic tongue licking Eva's cheek.

::Eva winced slightly in pain through the trip and mentally cursed::
Heh should've known it wasn't gonna be that easy...
::She glared at Loci and then goes into a smirk::
"Hasn't anyone ever told you not to stick out your tongue on ice...."
::Loci soon found his tongue frozen and his talons gripping on ice as she kicks Loci away slightly to give her some room::
"And how exactly do you know who I am and who my father was...no one else seemed to know..."
::She kept her guard up keeping an eye on Loci and his jitte's::

::Rainii goes up to the 01 deck,and sees Vincent and his crew already in their gear. Infinity told her that Vincent had offered them special armor,so she goes and suits up, and then walks over to the group::
"Thanks for that...it'll definately come in handy."

::Natalia sees what's happening to Eva, and decides she can't wait anymore::
Stupid girl. Cherai, hang on. Iole, take us down.
::The dragon dives towards Loci & Eva. Natalia fires six shafts of Lightning from her hand. Her violet Irises glowing, and the whites of her eyes turning black. The force of the attack throws Loci off of Eva, and both go flying in opposite directions. Iole pulls up, throwing Loci several more yards with her tail as she does so::

Loci stands up, brushes himself off then tears his own frozen tongue out, snapping it like a popsicle. He makes a slithering sucking sound as his tongue reforms.
Loci looks up at the dragon Iole and Natalia, smirks, then sends the two jitte's flying after them. The jitte's begin to cast a polifera of spells at her: fireja, lightnja, iceja, and numerous others all aiming at the dragon and its riders.
He turns back to Eva, walking over to her, picking her up once agian and tossing her against a metal wall. He conjures a temporary shell to prevent anymore unwarrented attacks from the air or elsewhere. (Give Eva and I a few uninterupted posts). "Simple, girl, I smell it on you." He sniffs. "Your blood reaks of his stench."

::Eva growled a bit her wings giving her a cushion against the force of being tossed against the metal wall and once again kicked Loci off from her and places an ice wall in front of her::
"I'm sorry I'm not used to crazed maniacs touching me you have to forgive me..."
::She said with a growl eyeing him::
"If you know who my father was tell me who he is and aparently you haven't been smelling yourself if you want to talk about stench...."
::She clenched her fists together ready to fight if it comes down to it::
He's strong....I give him that but I don't want to attack him yet as much as I hate this he knows things about my past that I can't find anywhere else...if it comes down to it I will beat the information out of him...

::The dragon, and it's riders fly through the air, trying to shake off the jittes. When they're out of Loci's eyeline, Natalia gives Iole an order::
Iole, turn around. Fly at them head on.
Iole: But I thought you said those things hurt you.
Nevermind what I said! Just do as your told!
::Iole turns and flies straight at the Jittes. They try to lay into Natalia's flesh as she blocks them from Cherai. They just bounce off as Natalia glows violet. She grabs both in her hands, and smashes them together, rattling their senses. They fall to the ground below as a purple fireball follows them, propelling their fiery crash downward. Natalia blows arrogantly on her smoking hands::
What do you know. It does work. Remind me to thank Ultimecia.
(OOC: No problem. Man, I'm messed up jumping between this and MST3K)

"Fira" Loci casts the spell on the icewall, causing it to melt down.
"You want to know about you father?" Loci hisses. "A demon angel who was granted the gift of the Angel of War before the fall." Loci throws his arms forward, sending a gust of powerful energy at Eva, throwing her back against the wall, causing her to dent into the metal. Loci smiles at this, enjoying the toying. "He was one of those 'heroes' as well, fought along side the Summoner and others. Infact we fought together against the creature Israel; I regret I never got the oppertunity to kill him... well I suppose you'll have to sufice." Loci's massive and diseased naginata materalizes in his hand.

::Eva smirked slightly as she activated her gauntlets as she gotten in to an offensive position::
"I have to thank you...for telling me about my father even if you are insane but the fact that you once fought together on the 'good' side...."
::She jumped backwards her feet landing on the metal wall charging Glacius::
"I just find that part a little hard to believe..."
::She propels foward from the wall and gave Loci a massive hook with Glacius before freezing his foot into place to twist his ankle to the opposite side as she used Fuujin to manipulate the wind to help her turn and gave Loci another hard punch breaking the ice that had his foot in place so he wouldn't move from the first punch and knocked him into the metal wall where she was at orginally::
"I can toy around too big virus Loci so why don't we play more often..."
::She said with a grin and backflipped off the platform and flew away knowing that she wasn't gonna get away with him but to definitely get him to chase her all while keeping her guard up and secretly setting up her body with her ability::
