Lucia fell to her knees with a sigh.
Her eyes were wide, and her hands shaking.
"Whew..." She breathed, her sigh ruffling her bangs that fell in her face.
".....I'm so glad that worked..." She chuckled nervously...her hands white over Dante's gun.
She looked over at him, and cocked her head.
"'Him'? Who exactly are we needing to get out of your system and how do we do it?" She asked, her face pale, that was the last time she used that much force to control something that she knew nothing about.

*looks over at Lucia...* Sephiroth.... That night my village was destroyed.....Zack held me against the ground....Cloud murdered my parents.... and Hojo....came in with a black box and stuck a needle in my neck and injected me with jenova cells.... then a few days later....i developed what you people call "geostigma" after that...every thing is a blur right up until....i met you, Ash and Leon. *looks down* i'm sorry i kept this from you... I just hope that i can regain control....

"Heh.....eh...heh......" Lucia's face paled even more if it were possible.
"What....did I just do.." She muttered, her grip on Dante's gun went limp, and it clattered to the ground next to her, her shoulders shook, and her body turned freezing cold.
"That......you mean to tell me....that that..was....was Sephiroth.....?" She gripped her upper arms tightly....not knowing if the chill she felt was fear...or anger.
There was silence for a moment....then Lucia began laughing.
"yeahyeahyeahyeah!" She said standing.
"That's how it's going to be!" She turned back, looking toward the port.
"Time to go kiddies...dawdling isn't getting us anywhere, and at the very end of this trip....The Great One Winged Angel is waiting....along with everyone's freedom." She could feel her heart pounding, her face was twisted into a smile, and her eyes burned out brightly in the dim light around them. She turned to look back at her companions.
"Or is everyone content to sit around and feel sorry for themselves?"

Lucia.....thank you. *grabs my hand gun that Lucia dropped* I need the rest of my weapons....*laughs a bit* come on lets go....the sooner we get out of here the sooner i can get him out of me. *follows Ash*

She looked over a minute.
"Eh...I'll hang on to the big sword for a little longer if you don't mind." Bullets were easier to dodge than huge Gunblades, besides...with her own weapons left behind, she felt just a wee bit safer lugging it around.
-----------------------
Stepping inside, Lucia almost forgot why they'd come...she marveled at it's size, and let her mouth gape a little as she wandered from corner to corner...till Ash spoke to her.
"Huh? Oh right.." She moved over beside her.
"Well, going in the normal way would be much simpler...but we'll have to use a back door...You can access our mainframe from most anywhere, just by using '4992033' but then there's a security feature, override code is 'Hot Fudge Sunday'." She looked around to the other two.
"Not even joking, we think the programmers were drunk when they did that."

*stands still for a minute* *reaches for my hand gun* *cocks it* Lucia...give me one of my swords....please. im ready to do this.... lucia, ash, when you get in there.....go and take care of your business....i will hold them off. Promise me you will you get what i need too.

Lucia smirked.
"Eh, that's what the Sunday's for...that is is Rufus hasn't had it changed...." She grimaced.
"Knowing my luck he had it changed right when I first left..." She glanced back to Dante, and sighed. She unhooked his sword, and tossed it back to him.
"I'm going to be a most ineffective Sheild there Dante.." She smiled.
"Eh, but who knows...maybe we won't be in there for very long.."

*looks at ash and lucia...* i will keep them busy if they choose to fight...just grab the information i need as well...

"And what information will you be grabbing?" Lucia asked over her shoulder. She saw Ash glancing around, so she plunked her hand on the girl's head, ruffling her hair a little.
"Naaaa, relax alright, true, I've never had to hack in like this...that is where I'M actually the program...but still...we'll be fine."

the information on geostigma... and anything that might help me erraditcate the jenova cells in my system. *grabs ebony and ivory* im coming.... *follows the group*

*follows silently* *places ebony and ivory in my holsters*

Lucia brought up the rear this time, there was an odd feeling in her stomach as she passed through into Shin-Ra's mainframe...but it was squelched quickly enough, she'd just have to get used to being data for awhile. She looked around and started one way....stopping and heading another.
".....Blast it all..." She muttered to herself.
"...this was easier when I had a bird's eye view of this place..." She looked ahead to Ash and Dante.
"What are we looking for first Ash?" She asked. Lucia had thought about heading off on her own trying to find what was needed...but the way everything was laid out..she wasn't so sure of that plan anymore...so she hurried her steps and caught up with the other two.

*looks around and grabs the hilt of my broad sword in case of any trouble* ~i really hope we arent in here long~ you ok lucia? you seem tense.....

She nodded....Ash wanted the main information store then.
"Huh?" She cocked her head and blinked a few times before actually registering that Dante had spoken to her.
"Ah, yeah, I'm fine. Well, alright, I'll BE fine...as soon as we grab what we need and get out of here." There were two things she hated...not having her guns, and not knowing where she was...right now she was two for two.
"..I remember this place being a LOT smaller..." She chuckled to herself glancing around.
"And a lot more organized..." So far..there'd been no files that she recognized.

*looks around* where are we?
