In this illusion

[Voice]
[He sounds a little growly, since Chaos is so close to the surface.]

A formidable task, to defeat these creatures. Unless... it's possible to contain them as summons once more?

[Voice; Filtered to Yuffie]

[Sigh. He actually needs to contact her. :| But stealingfinding materia is her area of expertise, so it's not as if there's a choice. Not if they want something that could assist them greatly.]

Yuffie. Be watchful for summon materia.

[Action]

[A while after that message, Vincent heads off to see what he can do... and unsurprisingly Chaos breaks through yet again. He flies around until he comes across none other than Odin charging along on his horse. Chaos swiftly descends to attack. ...hard to tell who's the summon and who's the human here, isn't it?]

[Vincent did make it back to his place, but now he's seriously contemplating a return out there... because he knows how the Malnosso work, and he can't bear the thought of them dropping Lucrecia in the blizzard. So he's starting out somewhere just outside Community Building One, and will attempt to patrol around as best as he can.]

[...Obviously it will be slow going.]

Has anyone... noticed any kidnapping victims returned in the midst of this storm?

[Having taken care of the coffin by tearing it apart, Vincent has wandered by the store for some supplies and now makes his way home. He's noticed Lucrecia being around the apartment more ever since it's started getting cold... and as a bodyguard, he has decided he must protect her from the elements. ...It makes logical sense in his mind, anyway. He also has to inform her to speak with Cloud, so has lots of excuses now to see her.]

[Yes, by his logic he still needs excuses even though he lives with her.]

[He heads inside the apartment...]

Lucrecia? ...Are you home?
