((OOC: Sorry if its a bit late. My internet was down and I couldn't do squat. >.<))
Jericho shot had missed and he was spotted by one of those magic users. Noticing the fact that he would shoot something at him Jericho felt it was more then willing to get away from this place. He would have to target this girl later. Darting away from the place and glancing over his shoulder he could see the large magic come toward his position. Luckily for him he was prepared for that sort of engagement. The blast was large and enough to fling off the roof. He landed on his feet knowing this wasn't the end. It was a large blast radius. Jericho figured he was going to have his handful of people to get through.
Jericho managed to escape from the blast and cover himself in robes to conceal his identity. He walked away from the blast quickly as possible. Clearly he is going to have to come up with a better plan. This target wasn't going to be easy. He had to deal with those magic users first. But since he knows nothing about it. He would have to study up on his books. And invent something that would help him against these magic users.

Tifa nearly let go of her grip as Duorzum flew right into the barrier Genesis had created. She looked at both men, worry clearly written across her face. Tifa was in no position to make negotiations for her own life, being in the arms of a demon-like man, possibly hundreds of feet above the ground. If he handed her over to Genesis, this would be all over.
Speechless and oblivious to what had been happening during the next few moments, she clung onto Duorzum tighter than ever and within a blink of an eye, he flew them both away from Genesis. She looked over Duo's shoulder and winced at the sight - heights didn't bother her, but the sight of an army of SOLDIERS who were chasing then suddenly vanished out of thin air was... unbelievable.
[glow=blue,2,300]"Put me down..."[/glow] She said, starting to feel uneasy. Down below she could see another man, quickly walking away from the blast site Genesis had caused. She wasn't able to recognize that certain person due to the cloak he wore, but it didn't matter nonetheless...
[glow=blue,2,300]"Put me down!"[/glow] she repeated once more. She just didn't feel safe here.

SMACK! Duorzum was temporarily stunned. What did he just hit? The demon recovered faster than most. His grip on Tifa tightened, determined not to drop her. Using his wings to stay in the air without really moving, he looked Genesis in the eye and said, "Perhaps I have not decided yet. Who knows?" The violet demon snarled, then took off straight up above Genesis, stopped, and shot forward like a violet comet. Who knew where he was going, but he was definitely going. Genesis smirked... very well... Genesis snapped again and the holograms of the SOLDIERs vanished... Genesis Raised his arm and whispered into the com button on his sleeve... [glow=red,2,300] "There on there way out...get into position..."[/glow] Genesis listened and picked up the com signal from his clone counterpart... [glow=red,2,300] "So...there on their way..."[/glow] Genesis turned to the newly appointed SOLDIER 1st class Army behind him (1,000 troops strong) [glow=red,2,300] "The target is a Clone of CHAOS, he MUST be taken alive...the girl on the other hand has lost her usefullness...she IS expendible..."[/glow] Genesis looked around confirming that the troops understood... [glow=red,2,300] "Do not fire upon the target until the order has been confirmed..."[/glow] Genesis quickly gave each battalion its directions and let them get into position... [glow=red,2,300] "target is T-45 seconds from this location, all units activate sensory deprivation camoflauge now..."[/glow] Genesis smirked as the entire army seemed to vanish from sight, smell and sound... [glow=red,2,300] "good...now...we wait..."[/glow] Genesis sent up a large barrier into the sky, letting it streach until it was 3 miles high and 15 wide, then reinforced it with several other barriers... He checked them for visibility ...good, he thought to himself... the trap is set...and the prey approaches unaware... Now Genesis activated HIS camoflague and took to the sky, hovering just above the middle of the barriers...

Duorzum stoically looked down at Tifa, "If I put you down now, they will kill you."
SMACK!
He hit the barrier full force before he even knew it. The glowing purple blood oozed from his head and down his face, dripping to the floor below.
The hit did make a hole in the barriers though.
Duo was now flying weirdly, now flying in place, but nearly not flying altogether. His grip on Tifa was still strong despite the heavy blow. The demon was trying to get his senses back.
Now was the chance!

Now was the chance! The impact made the barriers fold and ripple before they suddenly curved in upon themselves and clung to Duorzum like flypaper, hampering his flying... Genesis immdeiately brought the barriers to full power and sealed the small breach Duorzum had made... now i just wait for them to passout he thought with vicious glee

Before the barrier had sealed itself up, Duorzum tossed Tifa right out of the hole. The enourmous air battleship rumbled by just as he tossed her out, that same one that was chasing the eight-winged freak. It opened up a hatch door and tossed out a net, which caught her and brought her in. The hatch door sealed up, and the net inside unraveled and went loose. A man, a normal human wearing a white uniform, popped his head from behind an opening door, and waved, "Welcome to the Skystomper."
The ship roared by the scene.
Meanwhile, Duorzum was having trouble staying awake and staying in flight. His wings had gotten too heavy, and he was weakened enough as is.
His wings finally stopped working, and he plummeted to the ground.

Genesis ignored the ship [glow=red,2,300] "Leave the woman, the demon is our Real target"[/glow] Suddenly 12 interlocking nets shot out and caught Duorzum in midair... Genesis oredered the troops to fall back and take the unconsious demon to the nearest Deepground station... Genesis lifted his sleeve and spoke into the mic [glow=red,2,300] "Copy 116 here, Target is secure"[/glow]

(Ooc - apologies for the delay ) Tifa struggled to break free from his grasp as he refused to land back down to the ground. That ominous feeling that something bad was about to happen came true when Duorzum smacked right into another barrier. Before the barrier closed up, Tifa was thrown into the small opening. Several stories in the air, Tifa was miraculously caught by a passing airship. And not just any airship: it was the same airship she had seen earliar, chasing the eight-winged demon... thing. [glow=blue,2,300]"Sky... S-skystomper?"[/glow] Tifa repeated upon meeting a man in a white uniform. The net unraveled and Tifa struggled to break free once again. Getting up on her feet, and assuming that man was the one operating the flying vessel, she urged him [glow=blue,2,300]"You've gotta follow them... you've gotta stop Genesis!"[/glow]

"I will tell the Captain. Follow me."
The man bolted out of sight. Tifa must be near the helm, because the voices sounded really close, or they were loud, "Captain! The lady you caught, she has requested that we follow a man called Genesis, sir."
"WARK! No can do. I know where he's headed, but there's nothing we can do for now. Deepground has our ally."
...Did the captain just wark like a chocobo?

Tifa followed the man down the helm, but her eyes strayed wonderingly, slightly admiring the interior of the large airship. All chain of thought broke upon hearing the cry of whom she assumed to be the captain.
[glow=blue,2,300]"D-did a chococo speak just now?!"[/glow] said a startled Tifa, all wide-eyed not really certain what to make of this. 'Deepground,' she thought 'what the hell are they? And where were they headed?'
[glow=blue,2,300]"You just said so yourself. They have your ally! You should do something!"[/glow] she said stubbornly, as she turned to face the captain... whoever he was.

The captain...was a huge multi-colored chocobo, wearing a blue pilot's goggles on his forehead and having a midnight blue scarf with moons on them draped around his neck. He was so large that he can carry five ten year old, average sized boys and one full grown adult, if the adult squeezes on there. His feet were absolutely huge. They looked bigger than his body. The coloring on the legs, feet, and beak were a rich gold. He was using his wings as arms, and feathers like fingers, having a firm grip on the wheel. The eyes were also multi-colored. The entire bird looked like a moving aurora, or a nebula.
He finally noticed Tifa, "Hello! I am Captain Nebula, of the Skystomper. Have a look around."
The bird then got down to business, his beak moving like toothless lips, without the lisp noise, "We have a lock on his energy signature, but right now, we need someone to penetrate the weak point of those Deepground defenses."
Nebula then called, "Alpha, Cosmic, Nytemyre, get over here! We have an immediate briefing going on."
The three that were called immediately arrived on the scene. They were the ones chasing that eight-winged beast!
They all responded at the same time, "Yes?"

The Genesis copies 111,112,113,114 and 115 stared at the massive airship above them...
111: [glow=red,2,300]"So...now we know their base of operations...shouldn't we tag along?"[/glow] 112: [glow=red,2,300]"No you idiot!, wait for confirmation that we have clearance..."[/glow] 115: (whispering loudly) [glow=red,2,300]"WILL YOU 2 SHUT IT!?" "this is a covert op!!!"[/glow]
111 and 112 both flinched then fell silent...
115: [glow=red,2,300]"thats better...now then...our cloaks have kept them from detecting us so far, but we WILL become visible in 2 hours when the mako batteries run dry...so STAY HIDDEN!"[/glow]
they all nodded
115: [glow=red,2,300]"good...ok then...take your positions"[/glow]
They five of them scattered and snuck on board...

Tifa stood motionless, her curious gaze was upon the oversized bird who was now in control of the entire vessel. Talking animals were no longer surprising to her anymore... if a dog and robotic cat could talk and become her allies, what more a mulil-colored chocobo?
[glow=blue,2,300]"Penetrate the weak point?"[/glow] she repeated with a quizical tilt of her head. Suddenly three new faces arrived, and she assumed they were the ones called Nytemyre, Alpha, and Cosmic. She recalled them from the chase earliar, when that eight-winged demon-thing was around. 'Yea, they were good...' she thought. 'but was that enough to go up against Genesis and the rest of Deepground?'She stepped up to Captain Nebula and said: [glow=blue,2,300]"What can I do to help?"[/glow]

Cosmic's heavenly thunder of a voice responded first, "Perhaps you may accompany us in this mission?"
Nytemyte, the black one, was a little reluctant to go, "We're going in? You're out of your mind."
Alpha, the obvious machine, decided to pitch in, and even though his voice was artificial, it was toned as if a human being were speaking, "We will need your expertise, Nytemyre."
"I'm not going."
"Yes you are."
"I have to agree with the light one this time."
"Fine! I'm going!" Nytemyre, defeated, tossed his claws up and turned away, folding his arms and muttering a few curses.
Nebula's beak turned upward in a smirk when he turned to Tifa, "Up for the job?"

Tifa just watched silently as all three demons (with the exception of the mechanical being named Alpha) began to bicker, convincing the one named Nytemyre to aid them. She found it amusing in a way... in appearence, they all seemed to look like one another, with a few minor differences; color, voice, attitude... it was like one was almost talking to himself!
Suddenly, Captain Nebula's voice caught Tifa by surprise, and all she could give was a reassuring nod. The reasons why she was in this fight she had completely forgotten. But Duorzum saved her life back there. From Genesis. She owed him that much. The thought of Genesis haunted her so much, it was as though he was in this very airship... 'Impossible...' she thought to herself.
[glow=blue,2,300]"Just tell me what needs to be done. I'll see what I can do."[/glow] she said finally. If needed, she could always call some backup thanks to the trusty PHS she carried along with her.
