Two figures, sitting at a very random table at the highest point in the forest, appear. In the center between them sits a hookah the emits an intoxicating smoke that soon shrouds the entirety of the forest in its vapors. The two men sit in silence, passing the hose between themselves as they wait, waiting for the one with questions that need answers.

::Thundering footsteps are heard crashing throughout the forest. The easiest way to describe this sound is that of a galloping Elephant. The monster that Natalia created on her arrival explodes onto the scene, Natalia astride it::
Miss me boys?

((Hehehe, you know not the Hookah Smoking Men))
The two men pay little notice to the thundering sounds and explosive arrival, they continue to go about the own business. The smoke itself surrounds Natalia and the monster, it makes them lightheaded, almost dreamy. "Miss..." Says the first man, as he passes the hose to the other. "Boys..." Says the second man as he takes the hose from the first man and takes a deep breath, releasing the smoke in a giant puff. Both men ignore her, focusing intently on each other.
1st man: "Natalia has come to question?" 2nd man: "And answers is what she seeks." 1st man: "Riding upon a beast." 2nd man: "How intimidating in the least." Passing the Hookah hose off to the first man again. 1st man: "She comes alone?" 2nd man: "She comes not alone..." 1st man: "Indeed, she comes upon a beast."
Natalia may notice that these two men exhibit a strange quality about them, as if they are one thing existing as two. The presence of Loci not here, yet an unsettling aura surrounds them.
2nd man: "Ask away young demon, your questions please." 1st man: "The answers are yours to keep."

::Natalia inhales deeply, then exhales in a gust. Sending the cloud of smoke back towards the table::
Alright then. My first question is where is Loci? I was so looking forward to showing him my new toy. After all, if he wants to learn the technique, he may as well see one of the products.

1st man: "Loci will arrive." 2nd man: "When Loci arrives." 1st man: "Now you're next question." Passing the hose back to the second man, he inhales.

Fine then. My second question, What does he know about Ultimicea? And it had better be good. I didn't drop everything I was doing to just get screwed over.

The second man breathes in and releases the smoke as he speaks. "Rash she is." He hands the hose back to the first man. "Her undoing that will be." Says the first as he takes the hose and inhales. "Perhaps..." Replies the second man. The first man grins, the hookah smoke filtering its way out through his teeth and nose. "What Loci knows..." "We will say." The second man cuts in. "Ultimecia was not from our time." Says the first man. 2nd man: "She wished to merge her power..." 1st man: "With the power of sorceresses throughout time." 2nd man: "Yet her desire for this power..." 1st man: "Was her own undoing." 2nd man: "Time Compression is what she sought." 1st man: "Through technology she wished to gain." 2nd man: "A god she would become." 1st man: "Her actions..." 2nd man: "In turn created a predistination..." 1st man: "Paradox." A cloud of smoke erupts around the two, through the haze Natalia can see Ultimecia at the final battle between Squall and the other SeeDs. "I am Ultimecia. Time shall compress... ...All existence denied. Reflect on your childhood... Your sensation... Your words... Your emotions... Time... It will not wait... No matter how hard you hold on. It escapes you..." The smoky haze clears, the two hookah smoking men come back into view. 2nd man: "What more do you wish to know?"

::Natalia glowers at the two smoking figures. Something about the sorceress had seemed vaguely... familiar. Then again, they could just be trying to confuse her. They were Loci's goons after all::
Very well. My final question. I know what Loci wants from me, but how does he plan to get it? If I thought he would leave me alone, I'd teach it to him myself.
(OOC: Is there a reason theser guys are here?)

((The hookah smoking men are well, they are interesting and normally play this type of roll. I've used them on many occasions.))
Both the men grin ear to ear at Natalia's words. The first man speaks. "Loci can not be..." The second man cuts in. "Taught." 1st man: "He must mutate." 2nd man: "Evolve." 1st man: "And you hold the key." 2nd man: "Inside yourself." 1st man: "For his evolution."
Another eruption of smoke from the two men surrounds Natalia, this time it is with malice, the smoke appears to form in the shape of a unusal rune that comes to rest upon her chest. For a brief moment she can feel a small piece of her energy, her sense of power, drawn out by the smoke before shooting back in as the smoke clears.
2nd man: "Dear Natalia..." 1st man: "Tick." 2nd man: "Tock."
Like a pendulum, these words are spoken as the two men slowly fade away in a cloud of smoke.

:Rainii's airship hovers above everyone. Suddenly Infinity appears near the two seated men:
"Loci's mess again.."
:Infinity looks around at everyone and places a hand on his sword:
"Rainii...now.....or theres going to be some heads rolling."

:He turns to the monster standing next to Natalie and unsheathes his sword: "There better be a good reason for this..." (OOC- I'm waiting until the end of the night for you to respond. Otherwise Im cutting it open and getting her out because you're holding her and I up from doing this storyline we were working on before you stole her.
