Like many taverns, Heaven's Door was entered with the slapping of batwing doors, and the stares of many patrons and bar girls. The bar may have been polished mahogany once, but was now a scratched and stained partition, in front of a clouded mirror. Several tables were about the room, with various chairs, stools, and other make-shift seats, where the grimy patrons would drink and gamble. A small stage at the back wall, was where girls would sing and dance, until they were inevitably drug away to the upper levels.
Upstairs, the rooms were just as unkempt, with little more than feather mattresses, and a table with a wash basin. Everything smelled of alcohol and bodily fluids, and the beds were stained with the same. Dingy windows looked out at the oil-stained streets, and the noises of the bar could be heard at all hours.

Yuffie pushed aside doors to step into the dank tavern, wrinkling her nose at the plethora of scents that assaulted her senses. Body odor, alcohol, food, and several other smells that she either couldn't identify, or wished that she couldn't. Eyes on her made the young ninja wish that she was invisible as she headed toward the bar. It made her skin crawl and reminded her of Midgar.
Midgar?
The girl stopped for a moment, rolling the thought over in her mind and examining it for clues. Was this place Midgar? No...There was something in her mind about the sky being hidden, but it didn't quite make sense. It was enough to tell her that this place was not the same, but still had cer-
"Move it!"
Yuffie was rudely shoved aside as someone made their way to a table, stumbling her for a moment. A quick recovery and a few steps carried her to the bar, where she finally sat down and breathed a sigh. She had to collect her thoughts for a moment, and hopefully no one else would interrupt her...

Heaven's Door. Quite the opposite, actually. The putrid stench caused the brawler's nose to crinkle, sealing a hand over her nostrils to bar away from of the odor but it was futile. Glints of crimson in her eyes shimmered as she slowly stepped into the vile place, looking around for the girl who happened to arrive mere moments before her. This wasn't a place for girls... at all~ She blinked and glued herself to her very position, not caring if she ended up winning a few glances her way.
Why was she terribly compelled to save this girl? A trace of something familiar nipped her nape, hurling out a flinch from the corner of her eyes.
Forget it..It's wasted effort if you can't draw out what you're searching for, Tifa.
A rude demand, a callous shove, a light fumble, and finally relief, Tifa gave a gentle pivot to the girl she was searching for. There was that feeling again.
You're not supposed to be here...that's all I know.
Without a moment's notice, creamy long legs sauntered over to the petite ninja, dangling over the stool as she perched her fine behind on it. There was going to be some disturbance within the bar and it wasn't going to be pretty. However, right now her priority was to get this girl out of harm's way.
"Hi there..." A radiant smile broke through, dazzling out her friendly charm...yet...things felt so...comfortable? "My apologies for disturbing your presence...but I..."

Sanguine Roku Yuffie stared for a moment, as if Tifa had sprouted a third eye or something. She knew this person! She knew her! At least...she thought she did. With a deep breath she calmed herself enough not to explode or something,"Hi. Um...this might sound odd, but...do you know me?"
Lips splayed apart to produce a soft reply, but none came. Tifa's eyebrows furrow together, indenting a creasing between them as she tapped the ragged counter with a finger. Yes, there was something about this young girl that made her heart shudder, but no tinge of explanation came to view. Yet, a faint smile from her memory surface, but not enough to tie together the loose ends that she was running after. Tifa sighed, shook her head, "Sounds strange, yes...and I had the same feeling when I came up to you! But, I guess it's that whole déjà vu thing."
A smile was offered and her right hand to formulate a new friendship.
"The name is Tifa~ Tifa Lockhart!"
Then, her spine tingled and she felt someone's eyes looking at them. Shake it off! Just shake it off! You need to get her out of here before something else stupid happens. |

Sanguine Roku Yuffie grinned at her newfound friend, and she was sure they had been friends before. Even if they hadn't, they were now...
However, she spotted someone behind her, with long silver hair and mako eyes. Part of her wanted to run away from this person, but she couldn't twll what caused this. After all, he was really pretty, and she found herself wanting to play with his hair. How did he get it that silky?!
Her gaze shifted back to Tifa,"We probably should get out of here, but I have no clue where I am at all..."
Tifa followed Yuffie's line of vision and found that the person who was looking at them was...a girl...? but didn't seem lik---right, she needed to get her eyes checked because the person they were both staring at looked to be a strange balance of both man and woman. WHUT?!
"And that's strange, too..." She heard herself say, crossing her legs at the knees. "I'm getting that feeling all over again. Ara?" Her attention returned to Yuffie, blinking. "Get out of here? Most definitely! Not a place for a pair of us gals to be stuck in...besides, we have some shady characters in here." |

The remnant noticed that the two women had looked over at him, though the only reply he gave to their glances was a stare in return. His cold mako eyes drifted between the two, observing them for a moment as he continued to listen into their little conversation that they were having. Unfortunately it seemed that they were about to leave, and of course he was not all too thrilled about that little thought.
I can't let them leave my sight, they may have some answe-
Yazoo's thoughts were cut short as his attention turned to the other silverette whom had approached him. Miss?! His eyes narrowed slightly as his pupils constricted to thin slits once more. Of course he was not at all happy with being mistaken for a woman, but the irritation that had shown in his eyes faded as fast as it had appeared. "Hn... Those are the questions I am looking to have answered.." His voice was certainly that of a man's, yet soft and emotionless at the same time.
Bartz threw open the doors, not expecting that they would open so easily. He cringed slightly as they hit against the wall, causing a loud smack of wooden door meeting the wall. He knew at that point it was an absolutely horrible idea to come here as he got quite a few stares as well as some glares for his entrance. The wanderer slipped over to the bar, taking a seat quickly as he tried to get the eyes off of him.
Man, why did I have to choose this place to try and ask around so I can figure out what is going on... Just look at all these guys, they certainly don't seem friendly at all... Maybe I should get out of here..
His gaze shifted over to the others who were also seated at the bar as if trying to see if any of them seemed nice enough to talk to. The brunette decided that the two women seemed safe enough to talk to, so he hopped off of the barstool and made his way over to them. "Hiya, I'm Bartz Klauser, nice to meet ya." He smiled warmly at them, deciding after the introduction he would ask them if they knew where they were exactly "What's your names?"

Looked over at the smacking of doors, as another pretty boy walked in. Because of this she noticed the other silver-haired man, though this one was decidedly less feminine than the first. They were all so familiar...well, 'cept that loud kid.
She couldn't help but giggle at him a little,"I'm the great ninja Yuffie, and-"
She was cut off as a few rough-looking guys came over to the group.
The bigest of the three reached down to pluck Bartz from his seat,"Ey, there boy. Y'think y'ken jus' walk inta m'bar and act like y'own th' place? I think I need'ta show ya who y'need to pay respects ta..."
The other two eyed the women, and Yazoo, with bad intent,"Maybe we should take his ladies too."

The stench of urine and other bodily odors was aggravating Tifa's nerves and the desire to retch into the nearest bucket seemed rather fetching, but the immediate twinge of disgust soon dissipated when she perked up at a loud noise. Came from the entrance and stood a very slender boy, "Goodness, he needs to eat..." And within a few seconds, he found his way over to where she and Yuffie were, slapping on a smile and pouring out a friendly greeting.
Her name was never uttered when a group of sinister eyes came to meet them. One of them snatched up the newcomer, which had Tifa slide to her feet. "Excuse me..." Eyelids fell to mere slits, glimmering out her crimson depths, "Mind putting him down? He may have bashed in but I see it as purely accidental." A slick dark brow was raised at the other's mild suggestion, "I don't think that will happen one way or another. So, I'll ask again kindly..."
Tifa pulled out a pair of her leather gloves from the back pocket of her black skirt, snagging them on, "Please put him down."
"L'mme tell ye what, Lady..." Sick pale eyes flickered down her form, drenching out his tongue to lick his lips, expressing the thrill of taking her in. "L'mme pound th' hell out of dis kid, and ye and me...can go upstairs for a bit of fun, eh?"
"Nah, that's not going to happen." A smile was all that was given before a thunderous jab met his abdomen, rewarding herself a nice guttural groan and a swift flick to the wrist to snatch Bartz. The secondary men were high on alert, throwing out their knives to retaliate. One seized the opportunity to slash at the petite girl, the other darting after the boy with a smug look plastered over his face.
Why am I thinking of Tonberries?
"We need to get out of here before the whole place comes barging in at us!"

Bartz smiled and gave a slight nod right as Yuffie said her name to show that he would keep it in mind, but his eyes soon widened a second later as he was suddenly snatched up from where he had been just a second ago. A shiver of worry ran down his spine for a second as the man talked, his previous thoughts were now being backed up bt the actions of these men. Man, why do I always do this to myself? I have the worst luck... First showing up in this strange place without remembering what is going on and now this? But no matter, I must protect the women! He was just about ready to force himself away from the man with a jab to the ribcage when the busty woman spoke up to defend him.
A faint blush tinted his cheeks in embarrassment from the situation at hand. She's...defending me? Shouldn't it be the other way around? I should be defending her because she's a lady, right? The brunette was snapped out of his thoughts when the man spoke again, his eyes widening once more as he stated what he had planned to do with them, which of course did not go over well with him... Or the busty woman for that matter as she punched his captor and snatched him right out of the man's grip.
The wanderer gave a slight nod at Tifa's words "Yeah, we really should dash outta here." He then unsheathed the brave blade so he could use the red tinted weapon to slash the man that was headed after him once more, before clearing the way if need be.
Hell, how did this even happen?!
