Yuna, Aerith & Tifa

[The Painted Lady]

Aerith nodded.
"Zack will be waiting..."

[Yuna Braska]

Cloud rubbed the back of his head and laughed lightly. "Right lets go then" He said to the girls as he began to head towards dock 52.

"Right guys, we are nearly at Junon" Cid said as he came over a rise in the land to behold a large platform city a large canon like thing at the top that appeared to not be in good shape. It looked as if the place was just ruins but there were people and lights shining from the city. Yuna was confused, this couldn't of been the place that they were to go, but as they got closer, the coordinates started to close in on their destination.
"Oh dear" Yuna said not really knowing what to say.
"And Yevon thought Spira was a bad place. " Gippal commented in a low tone, being serious for once.

[Tifa Lockhart]

Zack and Tseng had just beaten Aerit, Cloud and Tifa to the dock, they were waiting their patiently, watching the sky for their guests.
When the strange looking airship arrived Zack found himself whistling in awe. It was much prettier than the Highwind and the Shera put together, much more advanced just by the looks too.
"I wonder what they'll be like." Zack mused as Aerith and the others approached, Kunsel and his squad soon started arriving too.

[The Painted Lady]

"They must be good people if they answered our call," Aerith said quietly as she approached Zack.
She touched his face gently, healing his bruising silently.

Tidus stared out at the view.
"I guess... they really are in trouble..."

[Yuna Braska]

"I hope were good for landing" Cid said to himself as he began to slow down his ship as they got closer towards the docks, They could see people already watching the bright airship float into the town of Junon.
"I wonder, if we might meet new friends here" Yuna asked to herself though out loud.
"Of course we will.. well, i hope they do like us anyway. " Rikku said thinking that maybe they were not what they were expecting, she was beginning to become curious.
"right guys nearly there..." Cid said as he began to lower the ship into a dock that was labeled with big numbers on the floor. Gippal left the Bridge quickly unnoticed and made his way to the drop down. The Crew of the Celsius could see outside but they others on the outside could not see them. Yuna was waiting for the ship to settle on the ground before she was going to leave, plus she was looking at all the new faces that were waiting for them at this planet.

Cloud made it to the dock behind Tifa and Aerith, looking up to the sky to watch the Airship come in. It was definitely not what he was expecting, it was.. colourful? Cloud folded his arms and stood just behind Aerith and Zack, waiting for the new arrivals.

[Tifa Lockhart]

Zack pouted slightly as Aerith healed his bruise, giving a small smile, "Aww, i was quite proud of that." He said, eyes flicking up to the airship as it skillfully landed on the dock.
"Everyone ready?" He called, instructing Kunsel and his squad to not look too menacing.

Tifa shifted nervously to Cloud, "What if they were only pretending to be friendly?" She whispered to the blonde.

[The Painted Lady]

There was no teasing response from Aerith, not even a twitch of a smile. Her hand just dropped to her side and she looked up to the ship that was arriving in the dock.

Tidus was starting to twitch anxiously in his seat.
"Come on Cid... hurry up with this!"

[Yuna Braska]

Cloud felt Tifa crawl closer to him and he leaned to her slightly. "Then we will send them on their way back home" Whatever process necessary. Cloud thought to himself before peering over Aerith when the platform of the airship began to drop and a bright blonde dress rather strangely started to walk out of the ship.

Gippal was not wasting time, he wanted to meet these new people, and was surprised to see that they looked similar to themselves, though with a different dress style. He viewed a large group of men standing ready, armed with weapons which made Gippal slow down his walk slightly. He looked over to a tall male just over his height with medium length hair and a strong stance. A young lady was beside him and he could see a few others, but he was more concerned about the men that were there with weapons. Gippal gave a little laugh and clapped his hands together enthusiastically though still wiry of the small army. "We received a distress signal? I'm not in the wrong place am I?" Gippal asked looking back at the airship.

[Tifa Lockhart]

Zack was sizing up this strange blonde cautiously as he approached, keeping Aerith close to him for safety but when the man mentioned a distress signal, speaking perfect Zack's own language, the SOLDIER relaxed, but only a little.
He released Aerith a stepped forward, offering his hand, "Zack Fair, Supreme Commander. Welcome to Gaia." He folded his arms once they'd shaken hands, his pale blue eyes careful, "Though we lament our lack of hospitality, we thank you for answering our call."
He wondered whether there was more with this man, and he was hesitant that they had not yet shown themselves.

[The Painted Lady]

Tidus was next out of the ship. Unfortunately it didn't hold quite the same control as Gippal, which was a rather sad thing to say. He came tumbling down from the hatch, landing in a heavy, groaning heap in the ground.
"This is why Cid said no pushing Rikku," the fleshy pile said, still lying on the ground.
"A little help... please?"

Surprisingly, it was Aerith who rushed forward to the blonde's aide.
"Are you okay?" she asked gently, worried he might have injured himself.
"Does anything hurt?"

Tidus blinked up, the pink-clad woman shifting into focus.
"My ego?"

Aerith gave a quiet giggle, offering a hand of help.

[Yuna Braska]

Gippal turned to Zack for a moment and put up his hand. "If you would excuse me for a moment" He said before walking strongly back to the ship. "Cid! you couldn't keep Rikku under control for 5 minutes!" He yelled to the ship. The ship turned on it's speakers and a husky vopice came over it.
"When was there a time that the girl ever listened to me?"
"Hey!" Rikku said in response to Cid's comment as she made her way down the ramp skipping past Tidus and the Cetra girl, before turning to give the young Lady a hug.
"Rikku can you pull it together for once" Gippal sighed rubbing his forehead. Rikku pouted and mumbled under her breath. "Thankyou" he said not really sure on what she was saying.
Cid was next to come out of the airship with Yuna by his side.

Cloud looked to Tifa a little confused but shrugged. "I guess they are friendly" Cloud said a little bit scared of the bright blonde girl in the orange and blue clothing. She reminded him of Yuffie.

[Tifa Lockhart]

Zack was actually a little scared, they were hardly what he'd been expecting, both personality and physical appearance wise. He cleared his throat slightly, not overly pleased about being ignored XD His eyes also followed Aerith as she moved to help the blonde up, wishing she'd thought before moving, if these people hadn't have turned out to be so friendly she could have been rushing into danger.
Pale blue eyes surveyed the whole group before he decided to lighten up a little, his stern face loosening into a small smile as he chuckled.
"I'm enjoying the energy." He extended his hand to Gippal again, "Zack Fair." He introduced himself a second time, much more casually this time though.

"I guess so." Tifa replied with a giggle, brushing a lock of her hair behind her snow-dropped ear and rocking slightly on her heels. She'd been nervous, but seeing Zack relax a little and Aerith move to help one of them made her feel much more confident.
"Their clothes are so..." She began, searching for the right word, weird didn't quite cover it. "colourful..."

[The Painted Lady]

Tseng stood back, going a little rigid when Aerith was tackled in a hug. Other than that, he was completely still and silent.

"Oh..."
Aerith wrapped her arms tentatively around the blonde girl.
"Hi there. You sure are friendly," she laughed.

Tidus brushed himself off, glancing up to Yuna and waiting for her before he'd introduce himself.

[Yuna Braska]

"I'm a little disappointed that your all not green, but still I'm Happy to be here" Rikku said to the young woman before walking off to where Gippal was. Yuna walked down to where Tidus was and smiled at the other woman with long brown hair. "I'm sorry they are all just a bit excited to get off the airship after all those hours. " She said officially with a sweet voice, apologizing for Rikku and the others.
Gippal turned to Zack when he introduced himself again. "I'm sorry, Gippal's the name. It's hard to keep these guys in order" Gippal said as he shook the tall males hand strongly. Rikku pounced next Gippal and rolled her eyes when Gippal insinuated that he was their 'leader'.

Cloud Was still standing a little bit back from Zack with Tifa, still accessing the new people. "Yer.. colourful." He really wasn't sure on how to describe such energetic people, though their were a few that looked slightly normal to him. Like the old man that was standing next to the young girl talking to Aerith, though he still hadn't met them all properly.

[Tifa Lockhart]

Zack sidestepped slightly as Gippal introduced himself, "This is my Lieutenant, SOLDIER Squad Commander Cloud Strife." He gestured to the blonde who till this point had hid away in the lime light. Though he gave Cloud's rank, no one on Gaia really used them the heroes of the JENOVA War were all on first name basis with the public.
"Tifa Lockhart, a long-time comrade and friend." He pointed to the red-eyed woman, who blushed shyly and gave a small wave.
"Pleasure." She said gently.
Zack turned to gesture at his other side where Kunsel and his squad stood, "Captain Kunsel Lior, SOLDIER Squad Alpha." The group all saluted crisply, showing their firm discipline.
"This is Tseng, Commander of the Turks and she," He pointed over to where Aerith stood, "Is Aerith Gainsborough." He would have introduced her better, but as her heritage was a touchy issue and would likely be in any talks they had later about how they could save their planet he figured he'd leave it out for now.
"Welcome to Junon Airbase Gippal."

Probably the calmest of them all, Paine came walking slowly down the ramp, her skull-blade slung over her shoulder in a relaxed fashion. This new world was strange and intriguing, every sense in her body was tingling with the idea of adventure. Even though she was quiet and serious Paine had a sense of life as well, and seeing a world so barren and dead was most concerning. She moved to stand beside Yuna and Tidus, wordless and watching.
