Fleeing from Luca, the one-eyed Burmecian makes his way to Mushroom Rock, it's winding road hugging the bluffs of the sea. It's many archways, tiny caves and sharp corners make it a dangerous road to travel for a creature being followed, yet this is the only path. What a strange world that it should only really have one road through the entire continent.
Once sure he's not being followed, he takes a break in a little alcove nestled in the rocks. He keeps and eye on the road, Emily on a nearby perch inspecting around for any sign of the suits or would-be followers.

::Eva walked down the road looking out towards the mushroom shaped rocks looking a bit confused as to how the hell they winded up that way to begin with::
Its nice to go out walking every now and then...its been too hectic lately....
::She continued to move down the road somewhat weary about her surroundings due to her not going through the area before but at the same time just relaxed thinking it was just a normal stroll down the road::

Just as Eva was enjoying her stroll, a little blue-eyed sparrow landed before her on the path, hopping and bobbing and chirping about. It clearly appears to know who she is and seems overjoyed to have crossed paths. It takes flight, circling around Eva a few times like a crazed creature, chirping wildly. It then shoots off down the road, quickly, then waits at a nearby rock. It appears the bird wants Eva to follow.

::Eva jumped slightly at the unexpected appearance of the bird before putting on a slight frown::
Well so much for quietness....hmmm...have I ever seen that bird before?
::She shruged before following the bird though she's completely on her guard now::
Don't know if this is a trap but I'm not going to keep my guard down...after all it was a unexpected visit...

The bird leads her to a spot among the rocks, just off the path a few hundred yards from where she was originally. It lands on a jagged green-gray stone and chirps madly. From the rocks, there's the sound of movement, a quiet rustle. A few tiny stones shaking loose and tumbling down, then it goes quiet.
"B'oody a'!" Exclaims a most excited voice, muffled behind rocks. "If'ain't Eva. Ye one hell'a bas'ard ta find, ye 'now t'at? I com'in out, don's'oot... or w'ateva ye gos'p'anned."
Poking from the rocks is the head of a Burmecian, male, with one platinum-blue eye and visible scarring from under the ruffled gray fur.
"If I 'new ye wou'd jus'come wa'kin to me, I'da stay'ed 'ere since I came ta'Spira." The Burmecian smirks. "Ye remem'er me, now, don'ya?"

::Eva let go of a breath she didn't know she was holding and relaxed instantly after hearing the voice of who she knew very well::
"Oh my you have grown so big since the last time I saw you!"
::She quickly ran over to Oliver and gave him a hug though slightly tight::
"I wasn't quite aware that I was needed you know...after all you know I like to fly...should've gave me a rang."

"A'now, is on'y been a' year or so." Exclaims the Oliver as he pops up out of his hiding hole. He's wearing the remains of old LPA clothes, bits of uniform and other mish-mash of clothes. His bad eye is covered with the yellow armband of the revolution. Of course now he is being squished by Eva.
"Gah!, can't breat'... dy'in... s'owy..." When Eva lets go, Oliver lets out a gasp of air. "Damn lass, ye try'in ta ki'l me, Iole mig't not 'ike ye doin't'at wit'out her permission."

::Eva scoffed slightly though she couldn't hold a giggle in::
"Hey your like my little brother...I have that right reserved you know."
::She smiled which slowly turned into a frown as she eyed him down::
"You look like you been through a war right now....is everything ok? Are you hurt anywhere?"
::She turned into her medic mode as she starts to examine Oliver to see if there was any injuries::

"T'is how I a'ways 'ook!" Oliver angrily exclaims, "I was b'own up, ye 'now!" He fixes his meshed clothes, being ruffled by Eva. "An t'is clot'es blend in... an' ya, had some fig'ts."
Oliver grabs Eva's shoulders. "But I need'ye ta he'p me, we got'a prob'em brew'in an ye one of t'e few t'at can he'p me. Ye... no'busy are'ya?"

::Eva looked at him seriously now::
"I don't mind helping, I'm not doing anything but what kind of trouble are you in right now?"
::She thought about something else before almost yelling::
"DID YOU NOT JUST GET OUT OF SURGERY?!?! WHY ARE YOU GETTING YOURSELF INTO MORE TROUBLE?!?!"
::A vein slightly appeared showing how agitated she was::
"*sigh* Your too much like us now....trouble follows us everywhere..."
::She just shook her head and sat down on one of the close by rocks::
"Tell me whats going on."

"Troub'e not fol'ow'in me friend, I went ta'fi'd it t'is time." Oliver explains plainly. "An'don worry about me, jus a'litt'e stiff sti'l but not'in ta bad. Les' get on t'e road first." Crawling down from the rocks back onto road. Once there, Oliver takes a moment to take a peek at their surroundings for any others that might be traveling, seeing none. He goes into explanation. "So, ye remember t'at fiend... Yersinia? One of t'e Council of t'e Jackals." He waits for a reaction. "Saw her in't'e news a'few weeks ago. She's made quite'a 'ife for herself now. Ever 'ear of Triceutical Inc?"

::Eva growled slightly at the name before nodding::
"Yea I remember Yersinia....I'm surprised she's still alive right now..."
::She thought about the Triceutical Inc::
"I'm only heard passing references about that place but nothing too much about it. How exactly is she involved?"

"S'es t'e president of it, my gue's is she use'd t'e fund 'eft over from t'e Order to bui'd up'a Pharmaceutical empire." Wrapping his arm around her shoulder, Oliver leans in close for the next bit of news. "An' is gets bet'er. Anot'er ol'g'ost is work'in wit'her. Ye gonna s'it a brick on t'is one... August Krasnow." He whispers. "Now, I'unno w'at t'ey got plann'in but it can't be good. Not t'ose two an we're gonna expose it'an stop it."

August and Yersinia.....now this definitely can't be good...
::She frowned::
"August always did bring trouble with him but what exactly could they be up to now..."
::She smiled and shook her head::
"You just had to go find trouble but you know what I say you have a good excuse on trying to find it this time around."
::She nodded her head::
"I'll definitely help you out with this one...."

"More t'en jus'a good excuse." Oliver explains, look dead serious. "Wit't'ose two sti'l in t'is wor'd, I fear for t'e safety of-" He chokes slightly on swallow. "T'e safety of me c'ild ta be. Not gonna brin' my c'ild into a wor'd w'ere t'ose two exist. T'ey ki'led me mum and dad among count'ess ot'ers - w'at a stop t'em from goin after me or me kid next? Go'in ta hit t'em first before t'ey can, te'l me ye wou'dn't do t'e same."

::She nodded her head in agreement::
"I do understand....and your right I would do the same..."
::She looked down at him with a bit of a frown::
"Any idea on where to start off at right now? And one more thing..."
::She smiled sweetly though Oliver could feel a slightly killing aura coming off of her::
"Child to be you say.....is there something you would like to tell me Oliver...."
::Her voice sounded sweet but there's a subtle hint of pain to come later when all is said and done::

"Oh 'ike ye cou'dn't see t'at comin? We'l..." Oliver contemplates a thought. "We were't even sure it cou'd happen, anyway... We're in 'ove, is w'at happens, an hid'in exile is a'l bor'in an such. Got'a keep yese'f distracted an don' te'l me t'at is not a damn fine way ta do it!" He chuckles a little at his own comment, damn what Eva may think. He was never very graceful socially anyway, why change now. "W'y I'm do'in t'is. Protect t'em an give me kid one hel'a first birthday gift. W'ats better t'en a safer wor'd. Is in me blood, I jus' had ta do t'is one 'ast t'ing. Never 'ive wit'meself if I didn't. T'ough... t'ought ye be a 'ittle more, ye 'now, happy?"
Backing away slightly from Eva, unsure how shes taking the news and definitely not how he expected she would. Best keep a little distance to duck. "An'ya, I got'a p'an. Clive is a'ready in Esthar, came here ta fin'ya."

"Silly Oliver...."
::She smiled and gave him a hug::
"Of course I'm happy...though I wish you both had've gotten married before going that route you know...."
::She gave him a slight pinch before letting him go::
"Clive's in Esthar....how long have you been looking for me?"
::She let her wings extend out before wrapping an arm around him and started to float in the air::
"Oh well tell me on the way..."

"Aye, no'so fast now." Oliver motions for her to calm and float back to the ground. "We gos'a prob'em. T'ese two... 'suits' followed me 'ere to Spira." He explains. "An... two civillians gos'invo'ved. Cou'd'in 'eave we'l enough a'one, ye know? I 'ad ta ki'l t'e two suits, t'ink t'ey were work'in for Yersinia but, t'ey may 'ave sent word of t'e ot'er two. T'ey cou'd be at risk. T'ese guys are bad news. Wear b'ack suits an sung'asses an 'ook real ug'y, a'l gray and mus'room'ike. T'ey a'so had some nasty energy based swords, cut straig't t'rough a'stone wa'l 'ike it was made of jell-o."
Oliver lets out a sigh, not liking what he has to say. "I 'ate ta say it, but 'eavin t'em a'one wit t'ose goons around mig't spe'l troub'e for t'em an me."

::She nodded with a smile as she floated back down to the ground as her wings disappeared::
"I understand...hmm...sounds like these aren't going to be your normal goons..."
::She smiled::
"Don't worry about it, we'll save them before we go ahead and meet up with Clive....but you should let him know that you gotten in contact with me so at least this way he could have some kind of relief..."
::She looked down the road to see if there was anyone there but she didn't see or sense anyone::
"I'm ready to go when you are."
