Before crisis game script

From here, we split into two groups. You will remain here and await the arrival of the main force. Tseng: "Your mission is to secure Sector 8. Isn't there anything more important to do? That is our tradition. Your superiors, Reno and Rude, and of course me, also began with this job.

Also, because the war is over and the sector has become peaceful, I don't think there will be any major problems. This job will get you used to the duties. If you're not equipped, return to Headquarters. If you are equipped with Materia, you can use magic in battle. If you use magic, the battle becomes easier to win. Make use of it. Do not fail! Down with Shin-Ra! One of Shin-Ra's Turks?! Why are you fighting? Do you know the battle mechanics? Tseng: "Report the situation to me.

It seems they resent Shin-Ra. Who could they be? Investigate to see if they have any other comrades. If I find others, I will dispose of them all. Some people in Sector 8 are planning to attack Shin-Ra.

Is it an organization? How do they plan to attack? Make a plan of the possible circumstances. Back in Sector 8, more rebels are sneaking around. You go behind. Tseng: "Capture a suspect and extract information from them. Don't let anyone get past. The one who got away before! If this works out, they won't come back! There are a lot of enemies. The game's graphics are 2D, and the player moves along in a side-scrolling manner. Gameplay is divided between several modes: Episode Mode plays through the game's main storyline where the player must complete objectives to continue; Free Mode allows the player to play extra missions to gain EXP and items, similar to Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-' s missions , and some items are exclusive to Free Mode; Rescue Mode is the last mode of play, and if a player is defeated they can either restart and lose points, or allow themselves to be imprisoned.

Afterward they must wait for other players on their network to rescue them. Characters have HP and MP , level up and can equip weapons and armor. Materia is obtained via a Materia Generation System where the player takes a picture with their camera phone, and the game synthesizes the picture down to its base color.

Depending upon the dominant color, lighting, darkness, and other factors, the game makes a Materia of a certain type. A dark green picture makes a Bio Materia, a blue picture makes Cure , etc. Another new feature are Rank Points RP that are given during the completion of objectives in all three modes of play.

After enough RP are accumulated, special bonuses such as stronger armor, weapons, and Materia slots can be given. The player is given a rank based upon how long they have been playing the game.

The higher their rank, the better the bonuses, but it makes Training Mode more difficult, as the player must fight stronger and stronger opponents. They are the game's unnamed playable characters which the player takes control of as they battle Elfe and the first incarnation of Avalanche.

Summoned by Verdot to oversee a rescue mission with one of the Turks' special agents, Tseng realizes the agent, known as the "Legendary Turk", was once the anti- Shinra activist "Death God of the Battlefield", whom he had crossed paths against previously.

Unhappy with the partnership and wary of the agent's motive, the pair arrives at a secret Shinra military factory in Wutai that has been overrun by anti-Shinra operatives. As Tseng informs Legend by phone he is to rescue a weapons trader held within the factory and eliminate the anti-Shinra operatives before they can leak the confidential information about the facility to the world, Legend plants bombs in strategic parts of the facility.

Making his way through, the Turk discovers the kidnapped dealer guarded by an old ally from his anti-Shinra days. As the two fight and Legend emerges victorious, the man reveals the truth regarding a past negotiation in which Legend participated in. As Legend's bombs detonate, the facility falls apart, and the man dies. Releasing the hostage, Legend recognizes the dealer had been present at the negotiation and questions him about the incident.

Unwilling to admit the truth, the dealer denies knowledge of what Legend is talking about. As a consequence, Legend abandons the dealer to die in the collapsing factory. As punishment for his actions, Legend is placed under house arrest at Costa del Sol. Appalled by the lenient punishment, Tseng questions Verdot, who explains that even though Legend had abandoned his duty and disobeyed orders he had still ensured the company's secrets were not leaked and had thus completed his primary objective.

Before Legend had became a Turk, there had been an incident at a mako reactor where a weapons dealer had entered negotiations with Legend's anti-Shinra faction. The dealer had betrayed the activists and only Legend survived, mourning the loss of his comrades and a little girl who had been important to him. Deducing the hostage must have been the same weapons dealer, Tseng begins to comprehend Legend's actions. Tseng discovers Legend is a favorite among the ladies and finds him on the beach.

Tseng is met with refusal, as Legend explains he enjoys the life at Costa del Sol and does not want to go back to the life of conflict. Tseng leaves the invitation open should Legend ever wish to rejoin the company.

One year later, with the Turks in shambles due to Verdot's demotion and Heidegger 's incompetence, an attack by Avalanche on Junon leaves the city in chaos. Verdot calls Legend and requests he fight for the Turks explaining how much his comrades need his help.

Legend agrees and enters the battle and decimates many Avalanche operatives. Seeing Legend's strength and thinking Verdot had returned to his post, Avalanche retreats and the Turks regain control over the city. Following Verdot's reinstatement, Legend renews his work with the Turks. As part of their duties as a new member of the Turks, the Player Turk is sent on patrol of Sector 8. Encountering Avalanche by chance the Player Turk informs Tseng on the PHS who instructs them to investigate the group further and notifies his superior, Verdot.

Discovering Avalanche intends to destroy the sector's Mako Reactor, Reno is sent in to support the Player Turk, as they enter the reactor to prevent Avalanche from detonating their bomb. Reno encounters Shears and is defeated. As Shears also defeats the Player Turk he is ordered to withdraw to Junon where President Shinra is to hold a news conference.

Tseng sends Reno and the Player Turk to protect the President. While the pair reaches the President before the attack, the President's military escort proves ineffective against Avalanche's soldiers, who infiltrate the President's hotel. As Reno stays with the President, the Player Turk clears the building before the President insists on leaving for the conference in spite of the danger.

Forced to act as the President's street escort, the Player Turk and the President enter the conference building where, dressed as Shinra troops, Avalanche momentarily captures the President before the Player Turk saves him as Reno returns to help. Cutting the power to the building Fuhito arrives and while Reno escapes with the President, the Player Turk is defeated by Fuhito. Avalanche has hijacked the Sister Ray cannon.

As Reno returns the President to his quarters, Rufus Shinra calls and notes the new Turk's progress before Verdot informs him of the Sister Ray's hijacking. The President sends Reno to liberate it, leaving him open for Fuhito to enter the room and shoot him. Still alive, the President orders Verdot to send in Sephiroth to destroy Avalanche.

Avalanche intends to use the Sister Ray to destroy Midgar as a message to Shinra. As Reno leads a contingent of Shinra troops against Avalanche's street forces, the Player Turk enters the cannon facility from an underground passageway. Coming across the sight of a massacre at the control room's entrance, the cannon is mysteriously turned off before the Turk gets to the control panel. Mistaken for the being responsible for the massacre, the Player Turk is attacked by Elfe but Sephiroth intervenes and is impressed she can defend herself against him.

Elfe and Avalanche retreat. On the trip to Midgar the entire candidate population is killed by a sole candidate called Azul , whom the Player Turk confronts, although Azul is eventually suppressed by Rude. While on the docks, the ship is attacked by a contingent of Avalanche soldiers led by Shears, who boards the ship and frees the candidates.

Following the theft of confidential documents from the 45th floor of the Shinra Building , Reno and Rude are sent to the site. An intruder sets off the alarm and the Turks defend against the building's security system that had been sabotaged by the intruder. While Shuriken Female looks into the sabotage, Reno and Rude continue their investigation and Reno notices a bearded man in a lab coat watching them from the shadows.

The pair chases after him, concluding the man was the thief who stole the data, but the suspect escapes.

Reno and Rude continue their investigation and help stop the malfunctioning security robots that have escaped onto the streets of Midgar.

Continuing their hunt for rogue robots, Reno and Rude spot the man in the lab coat and chase him into the sewer systems, where they are attacked by numerous robots that seem to take orders from the scientist who turns to be Dr. Two Genesis Copies appear from a hidden passage and distract Reno and Rude giving Hollander time to escape. Attacked by Avalanche, one of the troops, named Cloud Strife , insists on proving himself. When the troops are killed by a Raven and Rayleigh's life is threatened, Cloud stands between the Player Turk and their orders are to prevent Rayleigh's capture even if it meant killing her.

As the kidnappers embark on a train, Cloud boards it as it leaves, leaving the Player Turk to deal with the Raven and catch up through the service tunnels. Boarding the train the Player Turk frees both Rayleigh and an injured Cloud. In spite of their best efforts, the disk is taken by a Raven who was thought dead.

Curious over Rude's unexplained disappearances after work, Reno orders the Player Turk to follow after him in Sector 8. The Player Turk discovers he dates a woman named Chelsea and while the Player Turk deals with a monster infestation, Reno follows Rude to one of his dates and discovers Chelsea attempting to place a bug on his PHS.

Chelsea works for Avalanche, and Reno hears her claiming to her contact she was unable to place a wire tap on Rude's PHS in spite of Reno noting she had plenty of time to do so during the date.

The next day Reno informs Rude about his girlfriend's affiliations, but Rude already knows. The Player Turk comes across Chelsea attempting to quit Avalanche and has to defend her from her angered comrades. Chelsea asks the Player Turk to inform Rude she would not meet him again, because although she wished it otherwise, the Turks and Avalanche are enemies.

President Shinra grows impatient to destroy Avalanche and Verdot sends Reno and Rude to gather information on Fuhito's new Ravens while the Player Turk is to gather new Turk candidates. Discovering a facility in the snow, the Player Turk infiltrates it to ascertain whether or not it is an Avalanche base.

Rendezvousing with a Turk who had been investigating another part of the facility, the pair escapes outside where they are caught in a fight against Fuhito and his Ravens. Massing a search and destroy task force to attack the Avalanche base, Zack Fair is sent to bolster the Shinra forces.

Making to the captured pair first, the Player Turk discovers they have been warped to do Avalanche's bidding. While successful, the attempt costs Essai and Sebastian their lives and Zack remains to mourn them as the compound's self-destruct is activated.

As he tells the Player Turk to go on ahead, he is confronted by the Raven responsible for capturing Essai and Sebastian and discovers the process the Ravens undergo make them mere drones of their former selves.

After Zack and the Player Turk escape the compound, Zack erects a small memorial for his deceased friends. President Shinra, having become irate over his inability to uncover how Avalanche is receiving information from within the company, removes Verdot from his post and replaces him with Heidegger.

Hearing that Avalanche is again targeting Junon Heidegger sends the Turks as scouts who are to call him on anything suspicious so he can send in his military.

His insistence on using the military instead of the Turks leaves the members, when Avalanche does attack Junon, reluctant to inform Heidegger. Eventually, Heidegger is informed and Tseng discovers Avalanche were after the airships docked in the city. Heidegger lets the situation escalate until it is viable to send in his military, using the Turks as expandable distractions and ignoring their requests for coordinated information.

Verdot approaches the President in Midgar and threatens to reveal all classified information he was privy to the media unless he is reinstated as head of the Turks. His request granted, Verdot co-ordinates the Turks into retaking the Junon airport, sending in additional troops and Martial Arts Male to assist. While the operation results in a success, the Turks are no closer to discovering the leak within the Shinra.

Monsters from Professor Hojo 's laboratories run rampant in the 65th to 68th floors of the Shinra Building.

While Tseng evacuates the employees, the Player Turk contains the outbreak. The outbreak turns out to be a ruse by Fuhito and Shears to capture Hojo. Escaping via a B1-Alpha Helicopter , the Turks give chase along the highway but Shears blows it apart and brings in one of Hojo's experiments; a green dragon. The timely arrival of Sephiroth sees to both the evisceration of the dragon and the downing of the helicopter, but while Hojo is retrieved, Shears and Fuhito escape.

Informed by their Shinra contact of the existence of a Cetra descendant named Aerith Gainsborough , Avalanche attempts to capture her to protect the location of the " Promised Land ".

The Player Turk, having gotten lost in the slums, finds their way to Elmyra Gainsborough 's house where they come across Aerith who runs away. She returns when Avalanche arrives and is protected by the Turk much to her surprise.

As they attempt to convince Aerith to tell them the location of the Promised Land, Aerith notes an ancient voice coming from within Elfe is in pain.

Elfe is even more confused when Fuhito becomes flustered and attempts to divert the subject. When Shears notices the Player Turk eavesdropping Aerith prevents Shears and Fuhito from killing the Turk claiming she was defending her flower bed from further harm. During the commotion something seems to pain Elfe, who withdraws along with the rest of Avalanche. As the Player Turk and Aerith leave the church, Tseng, who has been assigned for some time to capture Aerith, arrives in another attempt to convince Aerith to work with Shinra.

Misunderstanding, the Player Turk prevents Tseng from seeing Aerith as she runs back home. Called in due to reports of the staff manning the Nibelheim Reactor disappearing, Tseng pilots the Player Turk to the Nibelheim mountains where they were supposed to parachute to the reactor, but a rogue wind causes them to parachute off course.

Forced to traverse the mountainside the Player Turk comes across Tifa Lockhart chasing after her cat. Following the discovery of multiple dragons around the reactor, the Player Turk falls back to Nibelheim to await further instructions.

When Sephiroth and his company are sent in to deal with the monsters, the Player Turk recruits Tifa to guide them up the mountain.

Following the investigation party's return, Sephiroth locks himself away in his hotel room for several days until coming out and massacring the town. Leaving to return to the reactor, the Player Turk follows after him, clearing the path along the way for the incoming Shinra forces.

After confronting Sephiroth, the Player Turk is knocked unconscious, coming to when Cloud arrives. As Cloud goes after Sephiroth deeper in the reactor, the Player Turk looks over Tifa until Zangan arrives to take her away. When the Shinra clean-up crew arrives at Nibelheim and the reactor, the Player Turk is instructed to help look for survivors in the town. Within the mansion the Player Turk comes across a long staircase before receiving new orders to liquidate certain documents.

Clearing the mansion of monsters, the Player Turk discovers the documents and attempts to read them only to become confused.
