The journey back to Timber had been slow and quiet, alone with only Angelo for company Rinoa sat on the train with just her thoughts. The rickety wooden track almost echoed around her as she sat in her carriage, Angelo wandered around her feet for a few minutes before settling down. Plonking himself down at her feet Angelo let out a sigh before closing his eyes, laughing quietly Rinoa got up from the sofa and walked to the window. The contract in her jacket pocket...it had been organised. Her request for SeeD had been accepted and boy was she glad, Cid had been really nice and polite to her. Perhaps it was because her father was General Caraway, most were cautious of him due to his background. Just thinking of that man made her angry, the train shuddered to a stop as it arrived into Timber.
Bending down Rinoa patted Angelo to wake him, opening the door to her carriage the young mage skipped out into the open fresh air. Looking around she pushed her aside from her eyes to get a better look, surely Zone and Watts were around somewhere here. Perhaps they were on the train ready for the plan, still they needed to wait for SeeD to arrive to help. Looking down to Angelo with a smile Rinoa rubbed his head once more before setting off towards a nearby shop.

The sounds of the brakes making the wheels of the train stop at the rails could be heard all over the rooms of the train they were at. Squall laid quietly on one of the twin beds they had as Selphie and Zell sat at the couch of such a room. He had been named the leader of the squad, the one that would lead the operation of the Timber Owls and that would most certainly obey their commands and fight for whatever cause this organization had. The young SeeD got up from bed and walked towards the door of the train, stopping before stepping outside, looking over his shoulder at both his comrades.
“We will carry this mission without any mistakes, I did not asked to lead, but was given that role nevertheless, we will finish this and go back to Balamb Garden” Squall said as he stepped out from the train, Selphie and Zell nodded their heads and looked at each other, the girl SeeD made a small giggle before stepping outside along with the rest, having arrived at Timber was the first part of their mission, the rest would be given to them as soon as the Timber Owls were found.

A few hours had passed since Rinoa had first arrived back in Timber, Angelo had taken to wandering around before coming back to the Timber Owls base. Preoccupied with the preparations for kidnapping President Deling, Rinoa soon found herself quite tired and worn out from all the travelling she had done in the past few days. With Zone and Watts discussing the position of the trains Rinoa took her leave to grab at least a hour of sleep, the white mage asked to be awoken when and if the SeeDs actually arrived. Walking with Angelo up to her room Rinoa opened the door to her room, closing it gently as Angelo came in she laid herself out on her bed. Shutting her eyes slowly her ears pricked up to the sound of her pet wandering around the room, too tired to see where Angelo was Rinoa fell into a deep sleep.
Not entirely dreamless her mind became awash with flashes of her past, the day she was told her mother had died in a car crash. Everything seemed to go to hell after that day, becoming a sort of rebel Rinoa rarely acted upon her father's wishes. They grew distant from each other, hardly ever speaking or even looking at each other. Perhaps that was why she grew close to Seifer, he was a sort of rebel like herself and despised discipline and authority. Of course...he hadn't been that happy to see her the other day, maybe he was just busy and couldn't talk. Seifer made a regular appearance in her dreams, the memories of the days they spent together...such happiness and bliss. Her dreams this time were more of a run down of her past, but then it came to more recent events. The young man at the SeeD ball, so clumsy and up tight but yet with a sense of maturity about him.

Timber was a rather small town, home of the magazine called Timber Maniacs, which related the adventure of a character through Gaia, it was rather an interesting magazine, though Squall never showed much enthusiasm on it and he wasn’t going to start now that he was on Timber; he had arrived here for a reason, one reason only, and that was the mission that had requested SeeD to come here. Squall, Selphie and Zell walked through Timber for a few minutes before encountering a rather interesting character, he stood next to them and whispered something quietly, a sentence that would have mean something only for these group of SeeD and probably the one that had requested SeeD assistance.
“But the owls still lurk around…”
After Squall said this, the man quickly nodded at the SeeD leader and turned around to lead the way to what would be their headquarters, if you could call it that, Squall, Selphie and Zell stepped into the train wagon and the door closed behind them, suddenly it began to move as if it were leaving Timber, yet it obviously wasn’t, at least not yet. Squall stepped inside, letting Zell and Selphie take a place on the wagon as well and he then looked at the man that had received them, already being reckless about the mission they would carry on.
“Well, you requested the assistance from SeeD members and here we are, we will aid you until your mission is over, my name is Squall and I’m the leader of this squad, orders will be carried on my command after I’ve heard the briefing from you, understood?” Squall said as he tried doing everything by the book, this was the first real mission he was leading and the lives of two SeeD members were on his hands, he couldn’t do anything of the reckless things he was used to do.

Awakening Rinoa shuffled herself off the bed, her ears pricking up to the sound of strange voices on the train. Shaking her head lightly she rubbed her eyes as Angelo nuzzled against her legs, giggling because his fur tickled her bare legs she got to her feet. Stretching up her arms Rinoa let out a loud yawn which echoed around the room, slumping back down to the ground the young mage picked herself up and left her room. Walking down the carriage her boot heels clicked against the metal and tiled flooring, brushing aside a few strands of her hair she came to where the voices were. Looking she first saw Zone and Watts and then three strangers, hearing the word SeeD Rinoa's face lit up but even more so when she noticed a familiar face among the three. Flinging herself towards him she wrapped her arms around his neck twirling him around, excited she began to laugh with happiness before letting go.
"Hey...You're...! You know, from the party...""So...does that mean...You're a SeeD!? YEEESSSS! SeeD is here! Elated that her prayers had finally been answered Rinoa straightened her clothes out, looking back to the guy she recognised she hit her hand off her forehead. "Where are my manners, I am Rinoa and this is my pet dog Angelo." Still beaming a huge smile on her face she looked back to Zone and Watts, seeing that they had made their way into the briefing carriage Rinoa looked back to the SeeDs.
"It's just that, I'm so happy! I've been sending requests to Garden forever, but nothing...I'm so glad I spoke to Cid directly!"

Squall turned his head as he noticed the girl from the party appearing, instantly, he thought about that party where she took him onto the dance floor, so, her mission after all was to gather SeeD to help her carry an operation of some sorts, it seemed she hadn’t changed at all from that perky, cheerful attitude she showed at the party. As soon as she saw Squall, she seemed to get excited and overly emotional, Squall never understood those emotions, they were useless for him and it seemed they both were exactly opposites, as he heard the words that came from Rinoa’s lips, Squall nodded his head.
“Yes..I am a Se-“ Squall got interrupted as the girl launched herself at him and wrapped her arms around his neck, his body lost a bit of balance as he was surprised by the actions of the girl, though his hands instantly were set on the girl’s hips, in order to keep her up and without falling, this girl was way too cheerful for him, his eyes opened widely as the spin of Rinoa ended and he removed his hands from her hips, getting back in a straight position, the SeeD leader stared at Rinoa.
“Yes, I’m a SeeD, we shall be under your commands until the mission is over, my name is Squall and I’m the squad leader, this here” Squall pointed at the blonde guy standing behind him “..is Zell” Zell straightened up, though then began to do his flashy moves, striking the air as if attacking an enemy and then grinning and giving a thumbs up at Rinoa, Squall just shook his head and glanced at Selphie “and that’s Selphie” the girl smiled and waved at Rinoa in a cheerful way, it seemed both of them could get along together pretty well, though the cheerful mood quickly was over as Squall looked once more at Rinoa.
“Well, now you got SeeD under your command, this mission is serious or Cid would have never sent SeeD over here, so, I would like to hear a briefing of what we were sent here to do, we have no time to lose”

Looking to each of the SeeDs Rinoa smiled brightly to them before letting her eyes fall back on Squall, he seemed to have been delegated the leader. Letting the bright smile fall from her face Rinoa switched to serious mode, showing them the way into the conference room a large diagram was laid on the table.
"Ok this is top secret and very dangerous, the basic plan is to switch carriages with President Deling's. Once that has been accomplished we will have....a talk with him on what he is doing to Galbadia and for him to relinquish his title as president to give to someone more deserving."
Pointing to parts on the diagram Rinoa didn't expect them to really understand, to be honest even she didn't understand it fully. Brushing aside a few strands of her raven hair Rinoa looked back to Squall, her arms resting on the table.
"Zone and Watts will handle the carriage switch as it's all done through remote. We planned ahead and rigged the carriages, we just need to be ready to jump into the president's carriage when we get the signal.If there aren't any questions then let's get going."
With the clap of her hands and a skip to her step Rinoa turned and began to lead the way, keeping the train doors open for Squall and the others Rinoa slowed her pace down.

Squall glanced at the diagram this persons had done, it wasn’t half bad in his opinion and it wasn’t that hard to understand. They were SeeDs after all and missions like this couldn’t be that hard at all, the train was rigged, the plan was done and all they needed was someone to execute it flawlessly and Squall was one of them. The dark eyed man glanced around to see that Rinoa was already making her way out of the room, there was something that was bothering him though, they were supposed to make the president surrender his charge to someone more deserving, Squall couldn’t help but wonder, which this might be. The young SeeD stepped ahead and looked at the girl, his eyes staring into hers as knives stabbing on them, yet his voice never changed, unemotional, unconcerned, as if simple curiosity had taken over the young male.
“We have no questions, let us carry on with the mission” Squall said surprisingly, Selphie and Zell both seemed to have guessed their leader was going to ask who this group would hand the presidency status, yet he didn’t. Selphie stepped up and tried to ask the question herself, yet, Squall placed his arm over her chest, preventing her from moving forward, the leader looked from above his shoulder to the other two SeeDs, shaking his head and simply looking forward, both of them nodded their heads and followed Squall behind Rinoa.

Rinoa led the way as you and your fellow SeeDs followed her, Zone and Watts stayed behind to make sure it went off without a hitch. The young leader of the Timber Owls glanced back every so often, her eyes catching yours she would turn back. Rinoa led you out of the train carriage. A set of stairs were in front of you and as Rinoa began to climb them it was clear you were headed for the roof, the train began to move slowly. Reaching the roof Rinoa turned you both and pointed straight ahead.
"We need to get across thsoe two carriages and then climb down the side into the president's carriage. Zone and Watts will take care of the uncoupling of the trains once we are inside. LEt's get moving."

[size=2 ]Squall listened to Rinoa’s instructions, despite her young age; she seemed to have planned this quiet effectively, except for the moving train thing. Squall and his teammates gathered at the roof of the first train, his eyes glancing at their target as the concentration required had to be perfect, else a sure death would accompany those who failed to get onto the next roof and fall upon the moving land. The young SeeD stepped ahead, signaling for the rest to come behind him, moving swiftly, the team gathered by Cid to aid Rinoa was on the move. The first change was rather easy, or maybe Squall was just athletic enough to leap from the first train to the next, Selphie had a little bit more of trouble, her clumsy feet made it a bit hard to handle herself on a moving target, while Zell tried to be a show off as always, as they landed next to Squall, the blonde SeeD tried speaking to the leader, trying to impress him about the way he just had leaped from train to train. “There’s no time for that, we need to get to the next wagon right now…” The brown haired male ran off, leaving his squad behind as they tried to keep up with their leader, with another leap, Squall landed on top of the wagon that needed to be caught, the president’s wagon. Avoiding the Soldiers had been easy, SeeD members are specialized on this kind of situations and climbing down the roof was no hard deal either. Now, the team composed of three newly accomplished SeeDs steeped onto the first of their challenges, the mission assigned by the Timber Owls. “President Deling…You shall come with us if you don’t mind” Squall said in a rather fancy tone, approaching the president carefully, expecting nothing but an old man, the soldiers were no worries, since they probably wouldn’t be a match for the group of SeeD’s, his only worry now was that Zone and Watts could uncouple the wagons.

The president's shoulders began to shake...he was laughing at you? Rinoa stepped forwards angry but trying to hold her temper in, the young mage was trying to be as professional as possible. Flicking a strand of her black hair aside Rinoa took a deep breath as she approached the president, you could easily tell she was nervous and perhaps even a little scared. This mission wasn't just some kid's game this was serious business kidnapping President Deling, as you waited for Rinoa to speak you heard the uncoupling of the train....Zone and Watts had began the switch over.
"President Deling...I am the leader of the Timber Owls a resistance group. Our actions may seem like those of terrorists but we are far from it, we want you to cease control of Galbadia and hand over all powers to General Caraway until a suitable replacement can be found."
Not a bad speech from someone who hadn't spoken in public before, it seemed to have no effect on the president as he rose from his chair. Laughing even louder now he walked towards Rinoa but he seemed....strange. His walk and actions were staggered and sharp, this only made Rinoa more nervous as she side stepped towards you.
"Release my control...hahahaha little girl you have no idea who you are dealing with!"
In a burst of black smoke the president sunk into the carriage only to be transformed into some sort of misshapen skeletal creature. Rinoa let out a small scream covering her mouth, as you expected she hadn't really fought before either.
"What do we do Squall?"
[Rp fight the skeletal creature you may control Rinoa and the creature for your post.]
