Jean shook hear head and went back inside to cuddle with Tao. She actually found a lot of comfort in laying with her.

"That sounds like overkill to use an orbital laser. And how would you even get one of those on an enemy planet without them being alerted to it? And who was behind these clonings and why did your mother agree to them? None of this makes sense, to me." Zack asked. Then added. "Sure. Why not? SOLDIER was made to be the greatest military force out there, and I was one of the strongest. It would be a nice match."

"Well it's not like I'm scared of that monster stealing any of it. Besides, even if whatever-his-name-is has the stones to try and cheat me, I've dealt with back-stabbers before. He won't get far." Etna said with a chuckle. "And I've got a lot of prinnies because I used to live in a big enough castle that you'd need that many to keep it up."

One of the prinnies noticed Jean walking into the ship. It followed her out of curiosity and found her cuddled up next to Tao. Then it pulled a camera out of its pocket and started taking pictures.

"I don't think he'd cheat you. He seems fairly honorable. If a little odd." Cloud said. "At least you didn't live in a mansion."

Jean heard the snapping of photos and sat upright, almost seeming sleepy. "Excuse me, what are you doing?" she asked in a somewhat annoyed tone.

@Zeph: I hear ya...

"Magus Cores Satellites 0 through 5, 5 being the weakest... They... Do you know the old saying 'An eye for an eye'? Well, they made it 'An eye for an eye and rip off their arm to make sure they don't do it again'..."

"Its fazed in and out of existence in a separate entity known as 'The Void'... Its capable of defending itself and... As of now... Only I can control them without it going haywire... And... We were especially made to easily infiltrate an enemy base with ease."

Phoenix shivered for a moment. "Though my mother was against it, she knew that only way for her legacy to continue was by cloning... she, She can't have babies. And the training... Only a few she knew exactly... Other clones were... they died before she ever got the chance to know them. And a few got passed her radar knowing by higher ups."

"... I g-g-guess... She could come... She... Cloud reminds me of her. Strong, and always carries a large sword with her." she looked at Zack, a certain passionate look in her eyes.

"Yeah..."Honorable guys are fun, way easier to take advantage of than someone who doesn't care about the rules. Etna simply replied. "Anyway, what's so bad about mansions? That's like, my second-most preferred place I'd want to live."

Uh oh! Better cheese it, dood! The prinny thought as it ran off as quickly as its little peg-legs would allow it. Which was actually surprisingly fast.

@Rosh: Wait, so Alternate-Winter approved of the whole 'clone and torture' thing just because she can't have kids? That kinda paints her in a pretty bad light.

Jean considered chasing after the little creature, but decided against it. Instead she just laid back down, pondering how heavy a sleeper Tao seemed to be.

"In my experience, bad things always happen in mansions. I'd prefer to avoid them." Cloud explains.

Zack shakes his head. "That's all over my head. I was always more of the break through and defeat the enemy directly type, though. Of course that seems to be true of every SOLDIER Operative. Sephiroth, Genesis, even Angeal." He places his hand on the hilt of his sword. "As for the big sword thing, I never go anywhere without my 'honor and dreams'. Cloud seems to have become a good legacy of mine, though." He pauses for a moment.
"That's funny. Why did I say it like that?"

OoC: @Drak Also begs the question of the others. Why did they allow clones?

People were threatening Company GreyFox as a whole (She created this during the war) Proxy wars and full length wars started up again after the Crusader's were finished (Though a few strands still exist here and there.) People wanted alternatives to fighting. Winter was originally against the cloning, but when push comes to shove, her genetic template built by the Crusaders, meaning less or more perfect. She ensured that her 'daughters' persay would survive in a world full of battles. Remember that a few things did get under her radar of knowing, such as Phoenix. She had no idea of her existence. Peace is only found for the lucky few, or the dead.

Remember how I said that Vanguards/Wardens were deconstructed and then reconstructed? Same deal. The end justifies the means.

But now to settle the whole 'clones' thing. Because real human life was heavily taxed during the war. Artificial human life was brought up as a topic to be used as tools... Do people accept that? No. Do people still do it anyways? Yes.

Phoenix tilted her head. "Cloud..? He... Is he your... apprentice? And... I don't know, but I'm tired now... soooo..." she quickly hugged Zack. "Th-thank you for listening to me though... G-g-good night." she let go and headed back into the ship

"Well mansions do get robbed a lot, and castles are easier to defend anyway." Etna commented.

The prinny made it back outside and sighed in relief. It knew it was basically home free, since most people couldn't tell one prinny apart from another.

@Salty: And yet another question, why put someone in charge of the clones who has such massive, obvious disdain for Winter that he'll take time out of his busy day to desecrate a corpse in a way she'll never know just to spite her?

"Last time, I was in a mansion... My entire home was burnt to the ground, my childhood friend was left for dead, and I was experimented on for several years and imprisoned. I have issues with mansions." Cloud explained.

"Huh? Uh, more like my friend..." Zack said, as Phoenix hugged him. "Well, goodnight." He said with a smile as she walked off.

OoC: @Rosh I thought people never really died in the Void. They were just reborn.

@Drak: People lie, people cheat, people do hurtful things. Evil is just pain. Plus, he's one of the few that actually know what they are doing. The secret to cloning, as it was usually seen as 'taboo' for the public, is hidden behind secrets and even more secrets. The public should never know about it. Also, He does it... Because he can.

@Salty: Eventually I never did specify how long it would take.

Phoenix eventually found Tao and Jean sleeping together. "May... May I join y-y-you?"

"...And there's that." Etna commented. "Seems like only bad people live in mansions. No wonder so many demons aspire to live in them."

@Rosh: Still seems odd to me, considering with how much hate this guy apparently has he has no incentive to do anything close to a good job. You'd think he'd just keep making horribly malformed clones on purpose and then go "My bad, let's just flush the tanks and start over again, LOL!"

"Th-thanks Jean..." She curled herself up to Tao and Jean and slowly fell asleep.

Code:
Beam attack drones successfully repaired. Coloration of beam is... blue.
@Drak: Because he also wanted to kill Winter with her own creations, which seems more satisfying... He's not not a dumbass cause he wouldn't stand much against a Super Soldier Killer, a SS (Super Soldier) who is married to said SSK (Super Soldier Killer). The SSK's apprentice and his SS wife. And two other SSK's that are not as good as the leader but come pretty close.

"You'll hear no argument from me. Makes me wonder if we can trust this Thanatos, honestly. Though, the mansion was simply owned by the Shin-Ra corporation. I don't think anyone ever lived there. It was mostly for executives and such when they stayed in town, I think."

OoC: @Rosh I'm pretty sure we saw at least one of them get revived within a few weeks.

"G-good night..." Phoenix said, falling asleep.

@Salty: Its all dependent on said person/soul. Some want to go back, others just want to stay. In all cases, those sent back get a sense of deja vu when reliving life, hopefully for the better. Winter only when back the first time because without her in the timeline of the Vanguards, Company GreyFox wouldn't exist, and several main events would have been drastically changed.

Good night people!
