[Video/Action]
[Video]
[The camera flips on, and there's the sight of a man with what looks to be blue eyes and black spiky hair, an almost x shaped scar on his left cheek. If you got a good enough glimpse, you might even notice that the man's eyes have a slight green glow to them, but you'd have to be very observant to notice right now.
Suddenly, the man looks at the camera in what seems to be very slight alarm.]
Dammit! Gotta turn this thing off!
[It takes just a little playing with it before the video suddenly ends. Yup! That was all!]
[Action]
[Anyone near the Bay might see a man with a giant sword and spiky hair outside it, and he seems to be moving away from the Bay. He's trying not to bring attention to himself, but this wasn't exactly the middle of nowhere. This was a city, and that made that difficult. Even more, after how he'd woken up, he had to find Cloud. He had to make sure he was okay. He didn't even understand how he was here right now. He'd fought. He knew he was unlikely to survive it, and he'd been on the ground when they shot him and he remembered being left for dead riddled with bullets. He'd been bleeding out. He'd been dying. He'd given Cloud the buster sword....and yet here he was with it. He knew that everything had gone black and he knew he'd felt the lifestream taking him, so then how was he here. How was he alive? What had happened?
At least he wasn't outwardly panicking, just inwardly. He was so lost as to what was going on. Had Shinra done something, had Hojo caught him again, or had something else happened?]

Re: action
Wait, world? Are you trying to tell me I'm on a different world entirely?
[Well, that would explain why he didn't recognize it but damn this was a weird situation to be in.]
And you said everyone is trapped here?
Re: action
[He narrows his gaze some.]
This is Genessia.
Re: action
[I mean, to be fair, Zack had been disconnected from the world for awhile, so he wouldn't have put it past anything for there to suddenly be a new city, but being on a different world, that was different.]
Uh, hey this might sound weird, but if we're on a different world, I gotta ask. Ever hear of ShinRa or Midgar? SOLDIER maybe?
[If not, then that would greatly put his mind at ease a bit to know he didn't have to be on the run.]
Re: action
[Athos quickly corrects in a rather stern tone. While he's not unsympathetic to Zack's plight, he needs the boy to understand what's happening here.]
The city ahead is named Genessia City but the world is called "Genessia" as well. [He pauses for a moment as he tries to recall all that he learned thus far. There's much to memorize.] There's five city-states: Genessia City, Everglade, Attleton, Fayren and Nova City. They each operate as their own entity but are connected through commerce and politics. Each city is protected by their own "guardian" who oversees the safety of their citizens.
[The musketeer trails off once Zack speaks.]
I'm afraid I do not. I've never heard of ShinRa, Midgar or...SOLDIER.
Re: action
Okay, got it. So another world that's not Gaia. No ShinRa, Midgar, or SOLDIER here, and just checking but this isn't just some world in the Lifestream or anything is it? Am I dead or alive right now?
[For Zack, that was a very valid question at that moment.]
Re: action
Genessia is getting stranger and stranger as the days go by.]
Are you? [He asks tersely in a somewhat cheeky fashion.] You certainly seem "alive" to me.
