This chapter takes place five years before the burning of Nibelheim.

Reeve handed her a bag with something black in it. "What's this?" she asked curiously.

"This is something for you to wear at the Vice President's party." He said smoothly. "Go ahead and take it out."

Leira removed the contents of the bag. A long black pair of gloves and a long black dress was contained in it. The black dress wasn't very revealing. It had a mandarin collar and reached the ground.

"Unc. I really don't want to wear a dress. I don't even want to go." She said flatly.

"But it's a nice dress." Reeve said in protest.

Scarlet was still leaning against the wall while all this was going on. She had rolled her eyes as she watched the dress being unveiled. She casually stepped forward. "Reeve, it's a lovely dress�it is. I just think she might need some private time to try it on."

He nodded in agreement. "You know that there are only a couple more hours left, right, Scarlet?"

The blonde haired Shinra executive nodded at him. She put her hands on his shoulders and pushed him out. "Yes, yes, I know. It's girl time. I'll make sure she looks pretty for the Vice President's sixteenth birthday.

Reeve was outside the door and had just turned to look back when the heavy door had slammed in his face. "Why do I suddenly feel like I've made a bad decision?" he asked himself.

Scarlet shook her head and held the dress up in front of her. "He's a nice man but this will not do."

Leira had always enjoyed her time with Scarlet. The head of the Shinra Weapons Department was always big on style and fashion. She had supplied Leira with the majority of her uniforms and was always around to answer questions about what was �in� in the fashion and weapons world. "This will not do!" she spat. Scarlet reached over and picked up Leira's knife. She began to slash the sleeves apart and cut open the sides. "We're going to make a good impression. Go get some string, dear."

Leira did as she was told. She went over to a small cabinet and removed some black string. She handed it over to Scarlet and watched, as her aunt became a possessed woman. She pulled a needle out of her hair and ran the thread through it. It was a long undertaking but the dress was finally made to show off some of Leira's other qualities.

Scarlet put her hands behind her head and laughed. "Now, go ahead and try it on."

Leira dropped her military gear and put the dress on. Scarlet clapped her hands at the sight before her. "That's wonderful! Now we've got to do something about your hair!"

Hours had passed and everyone gathered at the ballroom. Scarlet proudly strode up to the President. The large man put his hand on his son's shoulder.

"This is the head of the Weapon's department Miss Scarlet."

The young man gave her a short glance and picked up his wine glass. He looked away after a couple seconds and stared at the table.

"President Shinra, sir, our newest Turk will be arriving shortly." Scarlet said with a hint of surprise at the Vice President's rudeness.

As if on queue, Leira opened up the large double doors. "There she is!"

The newest Turk wore the long modified dress. The sides of it were cut high and over her hips while under her arms was bare skin. Her hair was left long but was tied in tight cornrows. The dress was almost unrecognizable to her uncle. Reeve had watched her walk in and slapped a hand over his face. He could almost feel a heart attack coming on but he dared not approach her while Scarlet was in the area.

All eyes were turned to Leira. With the exception of the music, all banter amongst the employees of Shinra was silenced. She was becoming worried about all the looks she was receiving. She decided to make the most of it and approach her "aunt". While she walked through the crowd of eyes, she noticed her new boss, Tseng. He stood there and gave her a slight nod. She wasn't too familiar with him. Her former boss, Rude was also there. He seemed to pay no attention to her.

A little further down was Reno. He winked at her and gave her a large smile. "Looking good." He yelled breaking the silence.

Just than she felt, someone brush against her. She looked over her shoulder and noticed her former general standing beside her. She looked him up and down. Leira noticed his shiny boots and the darkness of his formal uniform. "Hello, sir."

"Sir," he smiled, "I think it's more around Sephiroth now. You're not in my unit anymore."

"I'm sorry, sir." She whispered.

Sephiroth paid no attention to her. He lifted her hands with his.

The new Turk had always had a deep-rooted attraction to him, who wouldn't she thought to herself.

"I can see it. You are forgetting more each day." He shook his head. Leira was lost by that comment.

"What?" she asked.

"It's nothing."

"You're damn right?" Came Reno�s voice. Lieandra was suddenly grabbed from the side and pulled away from her former general.

"Reno, what has gotten into to you?" she snarled.

"That's my woman, pops!" He shouted as he leveled a finger at the man.

"Pops?!" Spat Sephiroth.

"You're woman?" commented Leira.

"Now just one minute�" The two men yelled in unison.

The Turk decided to let them settle their differences while she moved on. As she moved through the crowd once more, she thought a glass of champagne would be nice.

"Excuse me, aren't you the new Turk?" This voice was rather laid back.

She looked at the owner of the voice. He couldn't have been in his twenties, Leira thought. The boy was dressed in white pants and a black turtleneck. This person's hair was an odd mix of red and orange and his eyes were so green they stood out from the rest of his features.

"Aren't you a little young to be drinking?" she countered.

The young man smiled and looked down at his feet. "It would appear so but most people let me do what I like."

"Really?" asked Leira. "Honestly, I don't care what you do, drink if you like, I'm going too." She picked up a glass and started to drink.

The young man seemed to be surprised at her. His confusion didn't change her attitude she just looked back at all the dancing people and Reno and Sephiroth arguing with each other.

"Do you have a problem?"

The red head was shocked. "Do you know who I am?" he asked.

"No. Does it matter?"

He was completely taken aback. "I'm the President's son�Rufus."

That worked. Leira covered her mouth and took a step back. "I apologize, sir."

"No, no. That's fine. I really don't care if anyone knows who I am or not. I was just a little surprised by you, that's all."
