DBL - Ambush and Betrayal.. and fox!

[00:12] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] raised her shoulders as her arms tensed across her chest, nails digging against her palms. [sub][b]"We planned?..."[/b][/sub]

The words were barely squeaked out as her eyes shot to Vegeta. Before she could even break into tantrum, Fu's following words had her gaze whip back.

"..............."

There was that pang deep in her chest again and it snapped enough to send the Supreme Kai of Time's arms falling slack at her sides. The shock hit hard, jaw dropped as she could only stare as Gravy, one of Mechikabura's empowered Demon Gods made the first move on behalf of Fu, of all people. She had been suspicious of Vegeta, and Fu made it clear they HAD been up to something.. but it was a double-cross with a double-cross that had Chronoa frozen there in her own moment even as the force of blows and energy threatened to scoot her back as clothing billowed in the raging winds.

[00:24] [user]Gohan-[/user]: [sub]wait, so what's goin on? I feel like Missed alot[/sub]
[00:24] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] blinked as he heard the sounds of ground being broken apart, shouting, and arguing. The large vulpine slowly lifted himself up from the small campfire he had created on the rocky terrain. His flail slowly clattered at his hip, his shield thunking gently against his back as he brought his cup to his lips, downing the last dregs of the tea. And with that, he stepped his leather clad steel boot into the fire, using it to stomp the fire out.

Iskander began to slowly trek towards the sounds he was hearing. He wore the entirety of his armor, it clattering about, only faintly quieted by the leather over the plate metal. The fox unclipped his helmet from his waist and pushed it on top of his head as he came about a rocky outcropping. Glittering green eyes gazed out from behind the dented and gashed helmet as he stared at the group that were swinging hammers, arguing and fighting..

And stopped dead in his tracks, a loud sound of clattering heard as his armor came to a rest. The fox just stared for a few moments, before a deep, rumbling voice quietly came out from behind the helmet. "Uh.. I... Didn't know there were other people here... "Was all the dumbfounded vulpine managed to speak out, Iskander having never been one much for social cues...
[00:24] [user]F u[/user]: [sub]read DBL profile! It gets you up to speed[/sub]
[00:25] [user]Conqueror Iskander[/user]: (Sorry, I did my best... I wasn't unsure of what to do!)
[00:26] [user]Gohan-[/user]: [sub]kk[/sub]
[00:30] *[user]Timelost Gine[/user] rose her arms up, clearly struggling with the clash of power more than the Kai of Time. Some bodyguard she was supposed to be huh? Her feet slid across the ground, threatening to give way, were it not for her ki holding her in place. After the displacement of the blast she slowly narrowed her brow, shifting ever so slightly to the left so as to be ready to bound toward and deflect any oncoming attacks. Hopefully without being flung to the wind like paper mache.

Her eyes flittered past the sudden charging entry of the Demon God, right back to Fu. She was puzzled more than anything else, though in fairness she had never seen exactly what made that brilliant mind of his tick. Was this some show and bravado to him? A game? Or did he have stakes and investments tied up in it, thus making it so undying and serious? It seemed like not only a few short hours before they were taking a stroll and now. Locked in opposing sides neither really had their true heart in.

She glanced to the Kai within her peripheral vision. "Chronoa, with all due respect we should either retaliate or get back. Staying this close and standing in shock is only going to end up getting in the way and limiting Vegeta's options." She had grown rather accustomed to massive shows of power well beyond her understanding, probably not entirely healthy for her well being.

[00:43] [user]F u[/user]: [color=cyan]Super Cyan God Super Saiyan?! [/color]

[sub]How extravagant! Said Fu in his mind as he watched, within those micro milliseconds in between Vegeta transforming and Gravy's heaving power swinging....[/sub]

[color=brown]"YOUR GOD POWERS WON'T CATCH ME BY SURPRISE! FU-BOY TOLD ME ALL ABOUT THEM!"
[/color] Bellowed the Demon [b]God[/b]! A match made for Heaven and Hell, and yet [i]another[/i] for Vegeta to add on his list of 'underestimated opponents.'

His hand caught the hammer, metal to bone...

[b]And send a rebound of pure, dark thunder buzzing through his whole musculature.[/b]

And his fist, a white blur, shot out for the Demon God's steel abdomen!

[b]Meeting the warrior's time breaking knee.[/b]

Their clash, their blink-length bout, sends ripples of wind, fury, [b]heat[/b] in the air full of [b]energy[/b]! It felt like everything would explode! Luckily, the only explosion that happened was their mere moment collision separated the two warriors, giving them that  high octane flicker of their eyes locking in warrior aggression.... before coming at it again. Gravy's body writhing in Darkness, lightning that stung like whipping sub-zeroes threatening to strike down Vegeta, paired with knuckles and hammer that was slamming into the sky [b]leaving cracks[/b] that were regenerating over and over....

In the meantime, Fu's raised hand reached back. It was a Kiri-Device. The dials on it swiveled dangerously, dramatically, as the man prowled, floating around this match. Completely undeterred by the humongous powers that be...

[sub]"This energy is off the charts!~"[/sub]

[00:59] *[user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]'s teeth grit with heavy groan as he strained beneath the weight of the Demon God's hammer, pain shut out by determination and outright rage. Annoyed that he'd pulled his figurative punch in terms of his pushing into Super Saiyan Blue for sake of playing along, he'd figured that the mechanics of Fu gathering energy were akin to how Babadi had gathered energy to revive Majin Buu. The more damage caused by either side would allow him to drain more energy, thus meaning that he'd have to draw out the exchange longer than he would normally. He'd be sure to redistribute the discomfort felt in his changing of tactics and the burning of electricity which sent his muscles into near spasm back at Fu the moment he had chance.

"[color=cyan]So you're well informed then? Good! That means that it won't come as a surprise when I send you to your grave![/color]"
The Prince's hand tightened around the hammer, fingers curled to strain and grasp with tight hold, intent to hold the weapon and yank it downwards with a heaving swing of his arm. Using it as vital pivot to rotate his body round upside down, and swing leg downwards for a hefty kick at shoulder of Gravy. Gears within his mind turning to overdrive as he began to methodically plot and work around avenues of both attack and retreat if need be. Seemingly unconcerned by the presence of Gine and the Kai, less so because he cared not for their safety but more so because if he allowed his focus to drift away from battle laid before him, he'd most certainly find himself on the receiving end of damage. Rather than him being on the output end of it, and that to him were far more than unacceptable.

[01:08] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] didn't seem to hear Gine as she stood there, despite her form pressed onward against the force of the battling energies. Suddenly her teeth grit and eyes shut tight in minor cringe before Chronoa gave Gine a firm nod. "This is no place for either of us." Thankful that others of the Time Patrol hadn't joined despite that was Fu's apparent plan, the kai kicked off from the ground into flight. "Let's get back to The Watch. If this is where Fu wanted us to be, this is no place I want to be." She would hover and wait for Gine to hopefully kick off and follow with, before giving Vegeta one more scowled look. "Wait until Trunks hears about this one.."
[01:10] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] just watched, the fox in pure awe as he seen the Ki and the attacks being thrown around. However, his gaze transferred over to see Gine, and swiftly decided that she would be her best chance to get some information, as the others seem to be locked in combat. He ducked his left shoulder down, and shrugged it, sliding his shield from his back and down his arm in a clearly well practiced gesture. He swiftly tucked his arm through the bracket and gripped the handle, before reaching over and typing the strap around his forearm. He reached down with his other paw, and unclipped the flail that hung at his waist. He was clearly outmatched, but he felt more comfortable with his only friends in his hands.

He watched Chronoa and Gine speak for a moment, and then seen her kick off into flight. And with that, he suddenly shouted out from by the rock cropping, his voice one of a strong, and deep rumble. It traveled rather well in it's pitch, clearly used to speaking over battlefields as he shouted out towards the two. "Wait! What is happening? Where am I? Why are they fighting!?" The panicked vulpine shouted out, as he looked back over Vegeta and Fu, bringing his shield up to cover his left side just in case a stray attack flew at him.

[01:26] [user]F u[/user]: [sub]Timelost Gine ping. You still there?[/sub]
[01:26] *[user]Timelost Gine[/user] slowly grit her teeth, apparently not too happy about a full on retreat. Though she swallowed that pride, albeit with a low dissatisfied grumble. She [b]really[/b] hated the idea of leaving outright, even at their lower outputs of strength. It was...cowardly. It was weak, to leave a squadmate locked in conflict alone for no purpose other than safety. Yet she learned her lesson from straight charging in, or worse yet leaving behind rifts to be completely and utterly abused. "You can't just leave your allies behind! That's dishonourable!" That certainly rustled her jimmies, seeing her simply float off while leaving Vegeta behind left her quake with fury. Even if it was bait, even if it was a trap she couldn't disengage without making sure Vegeta either secured the kill or had a clear cut escape.

So what does she do?

She ascends to her maximum output and sets herself to Gravy's flank, pushing and pulling alongside Vegeta's decisive strikes. Reckless, perhaps, though the only decision she could live with. Using her speed to her advantage, she attempted to be as pesky and as much of a distracting annoyance to that 'Demon God' as she could afford. All without exchanging a single blow.
[01:26] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: [sub]Gosh Fu, ya gotta be patient.[/sub]
[01:26] [user]F u[/user]: [sub]NEVER[/sub]
[01:28] [user]F u[/user]: [sub]OKAY THERE'S GONNA BE SOMETHING SPECIAL! SEQUEENCE BREAK. I'll let you guys know when the post order is back to normal![/sub]
[01:31] [user]F u[/user]: Well, she definitely becomes an annoying distraction. Those flares on his face shooting at her, Fu's unfathomable speed intercepts Gine as the energy-gatherer continues to whizz, still attached to his back!

Chances are that she might not give a damn about Fu--

Or his [b]glower[/b], a completely different sight to the happy kid who had been with her earlier--

A savage smirk laces his face. "Gine-chan!~" And a [b]minor pulse[/b] sends the Saiyan woman bouncing back towards Chronoa..

[01:31] [user]F u[/user]: [sub]NOT YET. EVERYONE PLEASE HOLD)[/sub]
[01:32] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: [sub]MY RAGE CAN ONLY BE CONTAINED FOR SO LONG FU)[/sub]
[01:35] [user]Shroom[/user]:
[color=red][b]SHHHHHNNNK![/b][/color]

The glint of scythe and dim lighting caressed the sky before an onslaught of violet-red struck down in a crescent arced wave towards the backs of Gine riiight as she left Chronoa on her own and was on the verge of bounce-back with the fox-dude ever so close by for that oh-so-perfect [i]collateral damage.[/i] Of course, no mind was paid to Vegeta and Gravy right there potentially in the path if those targets didn't take the brunt of the attack.. nevermind the wild ambient damage charging outward here and there. [i]Gravy would be fiiiiiiine![/i]

Up in the sky was Shroom, the Demon God of Death with a most twisted hunger gleaming in crimson eyes, his tongue poking freely from maniacal grin as his cape spread outward behind him. [color=brown]"Mind if I [b]cut[/b] in, ladies? Kekeke!"[/color] No time was wasted as he charged downward at the lone little kai with a cackle, Dark Energy lacing across his form and scythe wildly. [color=brown]"Can't leave the party you crashed so soon! We're juuuuust gettin' started! Thanks Specs! You good there?"[/color] Just a glance crossed to that deliciously hungry energy-gathering device.

[i]That fox wasn't forgotten either.[/i]
[color=brown]"Grim Reaper Soldiers, come forth!"[/color]
With a slash of that wicked curved blade in his charge, scarlet energy danced forth and tore two dark whirling portals to the ground on either side of Iskander. From both rose two darkly clad robed figured with heads bowed and masks secure, hiding away any traces of individuality yet decorated in the Dark Empire's finest designs. Both immediately took stance, GRS-1 snapping his left leg out at the fox's chest in rapid kicks while GRS-2 charged into a barrage of punches, teamworking to expose weak spots on the new arrival and take advantage of those openings.

[01:37] [user]F u[/user]: [sub]Okay. Post order back to normal!~ Starting with me again!~

Fu - > Vegeta - > Chronoa -> Gine -> Iskander -> Shroom[/sub]

[01:53] [user]F u[/user]: [i]There goes Shroom, taking it up to 11....[/i]

Another venture that Fu dared to imagine in his mind when he concocted this plan, scratching it down on the Big Board of Conniving (the BBC), under the pointy ends of a chalk leaving white dusts.

Except, in the BBC, Fu had just imagined Vegeta. Fu didn't particular care all that much for Vegeta. He fulfills his role, he gathers energy, Shroom either cuts him down or doesn't....

What Fu hadn't been visualizing -- the reason why his eyes seared towards them in the first place -- was Gine AND Chronoa in Shroom's crosshairs. He had known that was the possibility, he had known it was the discomfort... was he better off letting them die?

No, no, it was too soon for Chronoa...

... and he wasn't in the mood to see Gine get charred.

His smarminess breaking into a full scowl, Fu charges forward again -- this time, much to his own risk, looping his fingers on Gine's shoulders as he [b]barrels[/b] straight into the Saiyan woman! -- pushing her right out of the range of the onslaughter! -- [b]Did he just save her?[/b]

And in addition to having pushed Gine closer to Chronoa, Fu himself was brought closer to the little Time Lady... where one last tiny exchange between their eyes was the predecessor to the demon scientist, with no transition, appearing behind the pair, sword drawn and his gaze locked with ... [b]Shroom[/b] and his scythe. Static popped between them.

Edge to edge. Not even Fu could play it off as a joke that his 'blade slipped.' But where were his loyalties...

"[b]Shroom.[/b] The Time Lady is for LATER. Control your bloodlust, my dear friend. We haven't even finished gathering energy..."

[sub]Then there was the fox guy but... frankly, Fu has no reason to pay attention to him.[/sub]

--

While this is going on... oh, don't worry, dear Vegeta! Gravy's giving him a ride on the Gravy Train!

[b]Arriving at Pain Town NOW.[/b]

Not paying attention to that other scuffle, Gravy kept his focus on Vegeta. Vegeta's kick lands powerfully on his shoulder, resounding with a flesh [b]THROOOM[/b]! ... but Gravy's stupid maw remained open in a bloody grin. With Vegeta committing to yoga on the wall that is Gravy, the Demon God grasps his leg while Vegeta finds his reaction delayed by the constant assault to his sense via the relentless thunder...

Letting loose his hammer, came down a hammering fist to Vegete's Stomeech!

[02:12] *[user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user] whited out for a moment as he felt fist collide with stomach, eyes widened in pained expression as he were vaulted upwards from the strike. It taking a brief moment for him to recover and halt his downwards descent. A pained wince and scowl resting on his face, teal hued eyes fixated to lock stare downwards at Gravy. Oh, man, [b]oh man[/b] were he [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5s9xI_D7qhU]pissed[/url]. That cyan hued aura erupted around him once more as deep breath filled his lungs and caused chest to expand. To hell with the damned plan of the filthy heathen demon. He would not be made a fool of, not by some upstart hammer wielding Thor wannabe.

Rage renewed, and senses cleared thanks to his distance gained between himself and Gravy he re-evaluated the situation. His reaction were slowed within the presence of the hulking creature, at least when he got close. Luckily he didn't seem to have to get close at all. "[color=cyan]What's that Fu? You want [b]energy?!?[/b][/color]" He'd caught that bit of conversation, or at least that's how it seemed in that very moment as Vegeta's arms swung wide and electricity crackled around him. Whipping from his frame to give loud pop and hiss as a very, very dangerous amount of ki gathered once hands swung forward. [sub]Tunnel vision was a bitch.[/sub] A bitch that he'd focus solely on Gravy below him. "[color=cyan][b]I'll give you all the energy you want, in exchange I'll take his life.[/b][/color]" That cynical smile of smug confidence met his lips, and laughter echoed through out the air.

This certainly spelled disaster for the Demon God and anyone else below that got swept up in the aftermath if he were able to unleash all, that, ki.

[02:21] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] blinked rapidly, gaze crossing to Gine. "Are you insane?! There's no allies here but you! [b]This is a TRAP![/b] Didn't you hear them?!" How could the Saiyan NOT see that they were led into this?!

Chronoa spotted the vulpine in her peripheral vision and was about to call him insane and yell at him to obviously get back and not get involved, only to be caught entirely off guard by Shroom's attack. She rose her hands in preparation and shifted aside as she saw Fu go at Gine, which was just enough that as the ground took the brunt of that energy wave, Chronoa was left still standing. Only, she gripped her shoulder as her right arm hung limply down, fabric tattered and torn... there was that moment of locked gaze with Fu's own as the demon scientist sprung into action of his own accord. The injury went ignored as she turned sharply, finding herself behind Fu now as the two demons had their... quarrel about her impending fate.

She had taken on Demigra, Putine and Gravy in the past, but two Demon Gods and Fu was a bit much!!! Nevermind the untrustworthy Vegeta and wildcard that was Gine. Especially given how she had extended herself just the day prior! Her gaze shot to Gine. "Come if you want, but I'm getting out of here. It's not a matter of my life, just a matter of time." Chronoa knew Saiyans had their pride and stubbornness, and apparently loyalty to each other despite being drawn right to the slaughter. Seeing as the vulpine was seemingly an innocent caught up in this mess and godly ki was all over the place with menacing cynicism and sadistic tendencies and threat, Chronoa dashed at him. Hand reaching forth, she went to grasp his tail despite being in the midst of fighting as other hand rose. Gine could follow and grab on, or not. "Kai kai!" Should all work without interruption, Chronoa aimed to ka kai them right to The Watch, for the Nest Building in particular where the Time Safe was.

[02:40] [user]AnotherShikamaru[/user] has joined the channel.
[02:45] *[user]Timelost Gine[/user] slowly slanted her lips into a pout. It was a disparity between cultural values. Corrupted by Frieza or no, the Saiyans had always been a proud warrior race. Values instilled into her by her culture, reinforced by academy and sworn in with her mate. While she certainly had some deviations, she held true to that sense of loyalty and belonging. "[color=yellow][b]I don't care if it's a trap! I'm not leaving him to die![/b][/color]" Though her ire was no doubt amplified by her transformation, it didn't ring any less true.

At least that was her plan, till her eyes dilated in response to seeing Shroom seemingly phase into existence and lash down at her with that scythe. God ki was something she couldn't sense, after all. Her eyes drew down to Fu in that brief moment. However tender she found it to be, she was given enough leeway to avoid that attack entirely. She closed her eyes and sighed softly. The first and [b]last[/b] time she'd [b]ever[/b] march into battle on a cowardly God's behalf ever again.

[b]She would remember this...[/b]

Her priority first and foremost was giving Vegeta an opening, an out to be able to leave these encircling, swarming demons seeking to lap up his energy for nefarious purposes. Much as before, though she augmented her speed enough to make several afterimages, each dash between each one causing furious, blooming pink explosions of Ki to distort view and distract, the end of which she forcefully grabbed Vegeta's shoulder and made one hell of a risky move. Tearing a rift open along the ground just long enough to slip through with him in tow.

She would face whatever ire could be garnered from either side, though she learned her mistake from last time. [b]Close the damn door after using it.[/b] She snapped around sharply and severed her link to that portal, causing it to stabilize safely once more. She found herself in the Watch with Vegeta in tow, completely livid. {I'll kill her. I swear on my life. As long as it takes, I will make her pay for that betrayal. Honorless curr!} Needless to say, she was not very happy how the Kai treated her allies in battle, be they temporary or loyal to her cause.

For better or for worse, she found her loyalties with the Kais weakening and her bond with Fu getting strengthened.

[02:51] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] wasn't exactly prepared for all of that. However, he heard such a loud noise, and another figure shouting out. Iskander lifted his gaze up to stare at Shroom, until the scarlet energy seemed to dance towards him in a collateral damage strike. Iskander swiftly lunged backwards, the large fox surprisingly able to jump back and land on his feet. He then seen more of that energy landing beside him, and he crouched down in a rather low stance, taking his center of gravity down to his knees. The wave of energy blasted into him, causing the fox to shout out in pain at the strange type of pain he felt through his body. But, he was a soldier, and not a stranger to pain and suffering as he shook his head back, having only hit a small bit of the shockwave. He got his base back, as he saw those figures rising up beside him, and instantly noticed them taking a stance. As the first figure snapped it's leg out towards him in those rapid kicks, it's foot hit solid plate steel, with chain mail underneath. The leather on top of the steel and underneath the mail absorbed a great deal of the blows, As Iskander was pushed back slightly, his steel boot locking in place against the ground.

And that was when he was struck with a barrage of punches, but thankfully his armor saved him there for the most part. Iskander was already on the move when the first GRS kicked his chest, bringing his shield up and then slamming it down. The fox, albeit not an alien fighter or even an earthling with powers, had spent the last decade in battlefield combat, and was good at timing counters to attacks that came at him. And as GRS-1 launched out another kick, he smashed the pointed bottom of his shield in a downward swing against his shin, knocking his leg down while driving the tip through the flesh of it's shin, and into the bone. Iskander ripped the shield upwards and at an angle, ripping out chunks of flesh from it's shin.

Right after he did so, grunting and flinching slightly with the blows of GRS-2 to his sides and ribcage, which were protected by that leather and chainmail still, but they were most likely hitting incredibly hard, he brought his right arm up and out to the side. The spikes put into the leather at his elbow came out in a smashing backhanded swing, driving the spikes of his elbow into the knuckles of GRS-2 as they came in for another punch. Iskander shrugged his arm away, tearing the spikes out of his knuckles before launching himself up and to the right, driving his steel shoulder pad, complete with Iron spikes coming out of it, into the chin and face of the creature. The set of spikes drove up into it's chin, digging deep into the flesh before Iskander rolled to the right, ripping the spikes through the flesh of it's face and chin.

[02:52] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] The fox took that moment to then push himself back, locking himself down into his low stance as he stared at the two figures, before he held his flail at his side. He rotated his shoulder and forearm, swinging the flail in a small [url=https://youtu.be/_CURQUAgtCM?t=49] Chain Dance [/url] Before his booming voice chuckled out of his helmet. "Ow.... You two actually hit rather hard.... Good to know with the magic and flying happening, that some people still fight hand to hand.. "And with that, he stayed crouched back, his shield raised up as he angled his body to hide behind it. He set the shield bottom against his left knee, and brought it up as he lowered his head, locking back onto his right foot to create a small wall of meat, fur and metal.

He then nodded his head, bouncing the rim of the top of his helmet off his shield as if to signify "Come, Break your back against the Wall." But then, he felt a presence behind him. Of course, in all his armor, his tail was hidden away, routed through paths precisely molded in his steel backplate so that it wasn't open for damage. But, Chronoa caught the pouch at his back and the toughened leather held tight, as he was suddenly Kai Kai'd away from the scene, the vulpine shouting out in surprise. Everything in his vision distorted, and he tried to tear himself away from Chronoa, but soon he ended up at The Watch, Iskander tumbling to the ground with a great deal of clattering and clanking, and smearing of blood from his shield and spikes. He grunted out, pushing himself up onto his feet, his flail still in his hand and his shield still strapped to his arm. He groaned out, blinking in shock as he stared at Chronoa. "What... In the Fates just happened? What was all that!? Where am I?"

The vulpine spoke out, his voice booming from beneath his helmet as he stared at her. Before he looked around, still dazed and confused as his voice quieted down a bit. "What... Were they shooting at eachother? And how did that thing just... Summon people to fight me?"

[03:05] [user]Shroom[/user]: [b]CLINK![/b]
[color=brown][sub]"Specs...."[/sub][/color]

Metal hit metal and energy discharged in a fury that barely came close in comparison to the hunger in Shroom's eyes. [color=brown]"You just spoiled a perfectly good hit! I was allowed only one, man! Tch!"[/color] He shook with rage, an actual rarity for the usually calm, chillaxed guy he was. Shroom pulled back just slight, enough to let Fu's leverage come forward and help him to drive his scythe up, breaking their pressured counter. Instead of taking a sweep at him though, the Demon God rammed the sharp butt end of his scythe to the ground, pointing at the blood splatter on the ground from the little kai. [color=brown]"That was a perfectly good tactical swipe, man! She woulda lived!... [sub]...Probably...[/sub] I [i]know[/i] not to kill her, man..." [/color]

[color=brown][b]"BUT THAT WAS MY ONE SWIPE!"[/b][/color]
Shroom was actually legit MAD about this, pointing at Fu. [color=brown]"I had one, one freebie so long as I gave my word to NOT mess with her itty bitty soul. And YOU spoiled that, man! Tch! I.. You... I..."[/color] His lips pursed, fist giving a rough shake in the air for but a moment... only to step back and in an instant--- smile. [color=brown]"But I got first blood... Not bad, not bad... And you... you've been doin' good with the energy gatherin' huh?"[/color] He nodded, pleased with that outcome at least. [color=brown]"Yanno.. even if she heals that up for no scar, it's the unseen one that won't be erased! We make a great team, Specs."[/color] Shroom snickered, elbow going to give Fu a small jab in jest. [color=brown]"Your mum will be so proud! Shame Pinksqueak didn't stick 'round though. Kinda forgot she could do that teleportin'... Ugh.. Was hopin' to get her to play ball. Get her in on the action, and that's some [b]real[/b] energy right there. Ah well! I drew first blood~♫"[/color]

The Grim Reaper delighted in that, bouncing up with a kick of his heels together before gaze crossed to Gravy and Vegeta. [color=brown]"Hurry it up Grav-- WHAT THE HELL IS WITH THE TELEPORTIN'?!"[/color] Shroom threw his arms up in the air as if to flip an imaginary table. [color=brown]"Ol' Bossman better get on that machine of his.. fast."[/color]

Truth be told, neither GRS was used to armored opponents and the two weren't very powerful fodder. The shield threw them both for a loop. This resulted in a lot of bashing... and.. damage.. and.. and Shroom pointed at the fray with his scythe, other arm holding his gut as he laughed to the point he began kicking himself through the air for a lack of rolling across the ground. Then the fox was gone... Those Grim Reaper Soldiers though.. One was a beaten mess on the ground and the other wobbling, to the point Shroom looked at the two and shook his head with a blissful smile. [color=brown]"Damn.."[/color] And just like that, a soul-harvesting swipe of his scythe slashed at his two henchmen, cleaving them clear in twain... which resulted in Shroom cackling and rolling about some more. [color=brown][b]"KEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEHEEEEEEEEEE!!!"[/b][/color]
[03:09] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: [sub]Summarizing. Vegeta wanted to do a boom. Kai of Time went Y E E T and pomfed out of existence and back in with a fox boy in tow. Gine did an A N G A R Y and went full on magician disappearing act meets Saving Private Ryan.[/sub]
[03:09] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: [sub]^[/sub]
[03:10] [user]Katrielle Layton[/user]: [sub]Is that what angary saiyan looks like?[/sub]
[03:10] [user]Katrielle Layton[/user]: Goodness
[03:16] [user]F u[/user]: [color=brown]"...bwah....BWAHAHAHAAA!"[/color]

Gravy's laughter was more like a roar than anything else. It drowns out Shroom's and gives the both of them an ear ache... and a brain ache, as the big lug lands to the ground and KEEPS his huge snicker going!

[color=brown]"You guys recorded it, right?! So I can show Putine-chan later?! BWAAHAHAAAA We gathered heaps of energy for ol' Mechikaboola, didn't we? The majesty is gonna love it! Good job, Fu-boy!"[/color]

But Fu, unlike the two of them, wasn't quite cheery... but he wasn't frowning. Didn't look sad, either. In fact, his quiet smile could be mistaken for a quiet celebration....

"We sure did, dudes... we should... [b]did.[/b]"

A magic run SPRINGS into existence beneath their feet! "Thanks a lot, guys! We should do it again sometime!~" Peace sign!

[color=brown]"W-wait, what-"[/color]

Gravy starts to reach towards Fu-- and finds that he can't move! [color=brown]"YOU DAMNED RAT! YOU CAN'T JUST BE TAKING THAT FROM LORD MECHIKABOOLA!"[/color]

"I sure can!~"

And without a moment's notice, Fu is gone in a streak of violet!
[03:18] *[user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user] found himself snapped from rage fueled attack by a [b]firm[/b] yank of his shoulder and him suddenly being pulled through a damned portal. Once on the other side he stumbled forward, arms flailing to keep himself from falling over. Understandably he were [b]PISSED[/b] less so because of the fact that things didn't go exactly as he had planned. But more so because.

A) SHE STOPPED HIM FROM KILLING SOMETHING!
B) SHE DIDN'T DO WHAT HE TOLD HER TO DO!
C) HIS STOMACH WAS IN KNOTS BECAUSE OF HIM BEING DRUG THROUGH A DAMNED PORTAL!

His frame twisted to pivot on heel and toe as Vegeta reverted to his base form, strained breath causing him to pant with heavy rise and fall of his chest. Gaze narrowed with Onyx eyes fixated to lock with Gine, and upper lip curled slightly. All clear indications that he weren't about to thank her, but instead give her a proper earful for what she'd just done. "You idiot! Leave it to someone of relation to that clown Kakarot to screw up something as simple as protect Chronoa!" Blunt, as always. "Do you not understand that Fu were waiting there because I spoke with him prior? That the reason why I wanted [b]YOU[/b] to protect that damned Kai were because she were not supposed to come!" A deep growl resonated within his throat. "Unbelievable, things were going as planned, then that damned edgelord appeared, along with that blasted fox creature. We were [b]this[/b] close to wiping one pawn from the board and gathering energy needed!" His hand moved upwards to pinch the bridge of his nose with a heavy, heavy groan of annoyance.
[03:19] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] panted heavily as they appeared at The Watch. The Nest Wing building was smaller than any Time Nest but certainly worked for her. Still.. it was so... empty. Part of her felt that was very well how it should be, given the recent events. Granted, she certainly had more faith in Vegeta than Gine, certain the Prince wasn't going to die in that situation. The kai hugged her wounded shoulder, forcing herself to her feet in a bit of a stagger before making way for one of the medical kits. "I'm sorry.. You're at The Watch, at my wing in particular. This is where the Time Patrol has their headquarters within this area, the Void Nexus... It's a lot to.. to explain.. but you're safe, okay? I.. I can explain things.. I just need a few moments.."

Those few moments were spent tending to her injury and trying to process not just what had happened, but the words of her new company. "So to answer your questions, I need to start by first asking some of my own.. Normally I could do it another way but.." But she was too extended and opted to just melt into a chair. "My name is Chronoa... What's yours and where are you from?" Starting with the where was easier than the when, for now.  Despite wanting to just nurse her wounds and get word to Trunks and Bardock, she was instead tending to the distraught innocent over her own needs and fears. Even with the turmoil brewing and bubbling over, Chronoa forced a small, soft smile for the vulpine... although it did not reach her eyes.

[03:31] *[user]Timelost Gine[/user] was most certainly expecting there to be blood, less harsh words for the fact that she pulled the Prince from battle. "[color=yellow]We were surrounded and I wasn't given clear enough instruction. I am not a blind pawn and I don't follow orders without reason.[/color]" She wanted to bark back and meet his energy in kind, though in truth she was reeling from being kept in the dark and trying to keep her thoughts on lingering on what she'd do or say on meeting that Kai again. "[color=yellow]I made a judgement call. A retreat was being made without you being included for some sickening [b]bravado and act[/b]. No one was making an opening for you, you were running out of energy fast and you were [b]completely[/b] surrounded by the enemy. What did you [b]expect[/b] me to do? Watch you die for some stupid cowardly God?[/color]"

This was not unlike her 'marital disputes' with Bardock. She was free spirited, had a mind and conscience of her own on which to act, one that had to be tempered to handle a situation beforehand. Tears were streaming down her face. "[color=yellow]And if I did what the hell did you want me to tell your son? 'Sorry, I let your father die because he was an inconvenience to your boss.' I'm better than that dammit! We aren't under Frieza anymore![/color]" It was very clear and bright as day she didn't let reasoning guide her, nor a moral code but how she was feeling. Her instincts and emotions were a dual edged blade, often one that required walking around.
[03:32] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] stood there, looking around for a moment. It seemed that he had been investigating the area, and as she spoke he turned to look at her. Iskander watched her tend her shoulder, and took a few steps over, watching her. "Do you need help with that? I've... Spent my fair share of time patching up battlefield wounds.. And... Well... My name is Iskander, and I reign from the kingdom of Irifter. Well, I used to. I don't know anymore.. "His voice, now that she had stated they were safe, and she explained where they were, had swiftly gone back to it's rather calm, deep tone. He reached up, his shield still strapped to his arm as he unstrapped his helmet and pulled it off. It revealed a furry head, scars crisscrossing his face, and his lips extremely chapped and rough. Patches of grey fur marked where his scars were, and there was even a chunk missing from his right ear. He set his helmet down beside him, and proceeded to unstrap his shield and place it upon his back once more. He clipped his flail to his waist, and swiftly crouched down beside her.

Iskander didn't even seem to notice the blood glistening on the spikes of his elbow and shoulders as he reached behind him into the pouch at his back. He opened it, and dug around for a moment before pulling out a small black vial. The fox looked up at the Kai, and held the vial out as a smile seemed to come to his lips. It did reach his eyes, but they seemed to be... desperate eyes. Albeit a bright, glittering sapphire green, there seemed to be little joy and happiness in them. They were the eyes of one that had lost everything, and was just trying to get through life and do good after they've done so much evil.

Iskander held the vial out in his large gauntlet clad paw, as he gazed up at her. "Please. I don't know what type of attacks those magic beams were, but even the glance I got hurt like all Hel. This is a simple salve I learned on the farm. It helps to numb and take away the pain and swelling in the injured area. I'm fine okay? Whatever that was that attacked me didn't do much through my armor. I must admit... I'm confused as all hell, and wondering with a lot of questions. But I'm finally a free man after a decade of imprisonment, and I just saw things I never thought possible. So... Take a minute to take care of yourself, and I'll try to process what I just saw..And once you feel better, you can explain to me what all that was. Deal?"

[03:37] [user]Shroom[/user]: [color=brown]"Gah! Old man, keep it down, would ya?!"[/color]

Shroom reached up and massaged both rounded ears with his thumbs, grumbling.

[color=brown]"Yeah, yeah, of cou--"[/color]

His words were abruptly cut off as Fu spoke up. Eyes widening, Shroom's scythe in the ground was wrenched a bit and combated that rune just enough for a little leeway as energy surged like wild. [color=brown]"FU! You won't be gettin' away with this! Not this time! Gravy-man, report back to Ol' Bossman. [b]I'm on this![/b]"[/color]

Using his scythe in extension of himself, Shroom concentrated with a snarl and spread his energy outward to eat at the rune from around and underneath, tearing across the earth. [color=brown][b]"Not. This. Time."[/b][/color] Really, Fu had already done this sort of thing twice. [i]Third time?[/i] He was prepared and Mechikabura wasn't around to tell him no... well... not until Gravy reported and told him what was up. At the very least, Shroom was set on following. The Ol' Bossman liked a show, maybe Shroom could record him a little somethin' somethin'.

That's just what he did, violet-red streak on the trail of Fu's own off into the distance.

[03:54] [user]Katrielle Layton[/user]: Thats
[03:54] *[user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user] found himself searching for restraint, something which he could only find partially as hand raised with a swift swipe to give a harsh reminder for Gine to remain calm in form of open palm to cheek. "You will hold your tongue this very instant woman!" A scowl curled the corners of his lips downwards as he glared with piercing stare at the Saiyness. "You're a damned fool, do you honestly think that me, the [b]PRINCE[/b] of [b]ALL[/b] Saiyan would fall in a battle against some roided out false god? I see that you truly are out of the loop as to just what I've encountered within my life." He took deep breath, holding it for long moment before he let loose with slow exhale in annoyance. "That fight were being drug out on my part, in order for plan to work I needed to do damage in battle and disperse a vast amount of ki to be collected. As it appeared, yes you made the proper judgement call to pull me from battle, but. As it didn't appear because one does not show their hand until the proper time, I were holding back, in order to ensure that the plan were successful."

He scoffed, and arms raised to fold over his chest. "As a Saiyan I was hoping that you'd understand the perils of being involved in battle. I counted on you to act with level head, and not have the hot headed reaction to rush in blindly, but instead for you to stick to protecting that Kai whom is far weaker than she appears. Just as you she could have died on that battlefield, yet she still went, and unlike you she kept her calm and remained in the rear to let the fighters take point." His temper quelled to a small degree, at least enough for him to stop with his punishment of her ears by raising his voice. "If you had a level head like she did, maybe you would have seen that everything was not as it appeared. By the look on her face, I suspect that she had inkling that attempt were made to make her into a fool."
[03:55] [user]Katrielle Layton[/user]: Thanks
[03:55] [user]Katrielle Layton[/user]: cool room
[03:55] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: [sub]I DID NOT GET FISTED YOU POOR EXCUSE FOR AN EGGPLANT[/sub]
[03:57] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] shook her head slowly, words rather bittersweet. "Thank you, but I've got it. I'm used to this sort of thing, just.. not exactly taking hits on my own form. Only taking in the injuries from others then tending to them and mending." She was that fragile healer in a mess of tanks.. but aside from healing physical wounds, it was about time itself. For Chronoa, it wasn't unusual to come across those with such looks of loss and yearning, given her position and those she tended to meet. However, this stranger was one of the few to see how his gaze matched her own, dark eyes glistening with tears that she refused to let fall. If they did.. They may never stop. The recent double betrayal of the day had been too much even for her front, especially with her sworn-nemesis-former-partner being a much needed ally in a shaky temporary alliance against the greater evil that was Mechikabura.. ..and now Fu.

With the vial offered, Chronoa reached out and set her pink hand over Iskander's and it. "Thank you Iskander, but trust me.. You'll need to save that and use it in a time of need. This isn't one of those times. I'll be alright and know how to mend.. I.. I've had a lot of practice..." Over 75 million years worth, really. "What you witnessed today isn't magic-- well, some of it is.. but not all. We call it ki, and it gets used in combat which is the manipulation of life's energy. Every living being has it, but not everyone can utilize it. Most are oblivious to it throughout their entire lives... Those soldiers that were summoned.. they.. They were only playing with you. ...This.." A deep swallow had to be made to compose herself. "This entire ordeal has just been one big game to them..." She fully secured the wrapping to her shoulder and arm, wincing slightly before opting to put on one of the slings, just to take some of the strain off. "A decade of imprisonment, huh? Must have been rough.." Time and most mortal issues were a bit beyond her, but she had gotten better with the understanding the more she was around others and had more interest in personal bits of their lives, no matter how short in comparison to her own existence.

[04:10] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] just watched her, the vulpine analyzing everything she did. He sighed as he seen those eyes gazing towards him, recognizing the look all too well. As she set her hand over his metal covered paw, he just nodded his head, as he smiled and set the vial down on the arm of the chair she sat on. "I don't have such times of need anymore Chronoa. I've lost everything I lived for, and I have nothing to go forward now. Just the will of survival is keeping me going. So please, take  it as a thank you for helping me today. Those soldiers were fast, but they didn't seem to have much durability or battlefield fighting knowledge to them. But all those...Ki? Attacks being thrown out, one hit and I probably would've been ruined.

So you say that people have that power within them? I had heard of witches and creatures that flirted the lines being living and dead, and were able to use the energy of the cosmos... But we always viewed them as just stories and legends told by drunks and cowards..And the imprisonment wasn't too terribly rough.. I mean, the beatings and tortures weren't enjoyable. It was the loss of my wife and daughter and being forced to fight for the man that killed them that was the true punishment..."

As he spoke about his family, his voice had started to lower in tone and pitch. His eyes seemed to drift off, as Iskander reached up to gently run his paw over a piece of glittering silver at his neck. A small, thin necklace barely visible under the plate and leather of his chestpiece. He slowly crouched down beside her, his armor clattering as he squatted beside her. And slowly reached up, his actions much more gentle than one would expect of a 6'3, armor clad vulpine, and he gently set his paw against her shoulder. Iskander barely used it to brace as he grabbed the sling strap and tightened it down, so that she didn't have to struggle with reaching behind her shoulder and doing it herself. Iskander tightened it down rather expertly actually, to where it took the strain of her shoulder and put more of it into the muscles of her neck and back.

Once he did so, he just quietly sat back and rested back on his knees. His metal boots thudded as he stuck the toes of them against the ground and sat back on his heels, showing a surprising amount of flexibility... And he just watched her for a moment, before speaking up....His gaze locked upon her face. "Chronoa... I can see the tears... What's wrong? Is the pain that bad? Please, feel free to use that salve. I can always make more. Or is it something else?" The vulpine man asked. He may be a creature of war at this point, used to seeing thousands of dead bodies rotting on battlefields, and used to pain and death... But at his core he was a gentle spirit, and even if she was a total stranger that he knew nothing about...  He had suffered enough pain in his life that he didn't want to see others in it.

[04:13] *[user]Timelost Gine[/user] could certainly take the slap, she wouldn't resent him for it. In her mind, she acted to the best of her ability and everyone pulled out safe and sound. That's all she cared about. No tears of the faces of children, wondering why their parents are gone. No agonizing losses of mates, missing the comfort of their warmth at night. No, this was a [b]victory[/b] to her and she couldn't give [b]less[/b] of a damn about that Kai.

 She powered down to base and spit the blood welling in her cheek from the slap. Their sheer power difference made it noted that it had lasting effect. "Demons don't play fair, and if you want your ace in the hole to work then maybe you should inform your allies. If not so it doesn't blow up in your face, so that they can make it more effective. I'm not a psychic." She grumbled somewhat, leaning back and gazing up, taking handfuls of the grass beneath them. "As for that Kai? She can rot for all I care. Because when and where it counts? She's a rotten coward, puffing her chest up and putting on a show but when it's time to put out? She lets everyone but herself bleed. She belongs behind a desk, not on a battlefield. She's a [b]terrible[/b] leader. If it's a difference between her or you? I'm falling toward you. I don't let power dictate doing what I know in my heart to be right." She stuck her finger in her mouth, inspecting whatever damage that slap may have caused. She could take the punishment, and certainly didn't mind it.

[04:29] *[user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user] huffed harshly through his nose, it scrunching tightly for a moment with curling of his upper lip as he fell to sit. Legs crossed to tuck beneath him and pull against his frame. "Listen to what I have to say and listen well woman. If I'd have told you fools about plan it would have been harder for you to fake surprise and would have raised suspicion. Your reaction needed to be genuine, otherwise I doubt the reaction seen by those two who crashed the party would have been one that believed everything that were going on. They might have even sensed trap and turned on Fu right then and there." He paused with deep frustrated breath, his plan had fallen to ruins before his very eyes. Only hope being that his efforts weren't squandered.

"As for that Kai, she's far more important that you think. The fact that eggplant darted to try and protect her speaks volumes to that." Or so at least his assessment of events transpired told him so.
[04:29] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: [sub]Broly. You are now at the top of my tier list for memelords. Just for that.[/sub]
[04:29] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: [sub]Because yes. Yes I got that reference. And yes, yes I approve.[/sub]
[04:29] [user]Gine[/user]: I'm already lost
[04:30] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] canted her head to the right as she cradled her sling-cast arm to her chest, adjusting the band a bit. "You may feel that way, but so long as you are alive and work towards reaming so, you'll have those times again. It's especially true for being here, in this place-- the Void Nexus. It's a pretty dangerous layout with some incredibly powerful people and this area of existence itself is fragile. The large shifting tears in the sky are Time Cracks and there's rifts, which distort time and reality and threaten to destroy this place and all who reside here, trapped or otherwise."

The vial was finally taken and tucked away, Chronoa thinking of it much like a senzu bean in retrospect. It also spoke volumes about Iskander, making Chronoa eye him in value, should he be able to make such things and perhaps even work with those unique beans themselves. His words weren't lost on her, but the kai had heard many tales of loss and ruined families. She herself could only relate in one way... which was the repeated loss and encounters and further loss and banishing of Demigra. How they were now on the same page over the matter of Mechikabura was a wonder.. yet.. part of her was thankful. ...Despite it seemed history was repeating itself. "I'm sorry, Iskander.. I hope you're able to find yourself living with a much better future."

Chronoa even refrained from speaking about being the Supreme Kai of Time, whereas normally she all too happily exclaimed in animated fashion, pose and all. No.. no not this time, not now. The talk of family was a heavy weight too for she herself had only Tokitoki... He and Demigra were all she had known. The vulpine helping to fix that sling brace from her haphazard job was welcomed, a bow of her head made in thanks as the usually talkative kai found herself in more of a reserved silence. Really, she couldn't even muster up a proper thank you. It became even more difficult as the tears were called out.

This prompted obliviousness, although clearly forced with that fake smile. "Oh! You made it?? Are you able to make more? I mean.. we have people who work to protect others, and they often end up injured. What you can do is a real asset and you have a lot of medical field knowledge.. I.. say, do you have anywhere to stay? If not, you're welcome to stay here at The Watch! At least until we can get you some transportation, then maybe the West City Fragment. I'm guessing you don't fly, right?" The last question was one Chronoa actually liked asking when she could to those who were unaware of ki, unaware of that untapped potential. Flight.. it was the most freeing feeling that so many took for granted.

[04:37] [user]Chronoa O Clock[/user]: [sub]What now?...[/sub]
[04:37] [user]Demigra[/user]: ...
[04:37] *[user]Demigra[/user] [sub]grabs her shoulders. Lifts her. Leer.[/sub]
[04:38] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] [sub][b]WINCES[/b].. damaged arm and shoulder![/sub]
[04:39] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] [sub]dangles... limply..[/sub]
[04:39] [user]Chronoa O Clock[/user]: .......
[04:39] [user]Demigra[/user]: [sub]Why are you wounded[/sub]
[04:39] [user]Demigra[/user]: [sub]Why did I feel that energy out there[/sub]
[04:42] *[user]Timelost Gine[/user] closed her eyes, nodding along softly. In all honesty? She had no idea how people could get it in their heads that not communicating with their team was a good idea, especially on already strenuous circumstances and allied relations having [b]just[/b] been established. It was the equivalent of jumping on a recently broken leg put into a cast, 'just to see if it would break again'. Though she was quickly learning to keep her thoughts to herself around the Prince, unless she simply wanted more physical reminders he didn't care about her input.

Though she was fine with that, all things considering. Trunks still had a father around, even if he did threaten her with jail time for getting hot-headed and deliberate. She still had much to learn about self-control. Though around Vegeta? That would certainly reflect inwards, causing her to lash out all the more. Becoming callous, brutal. Uncaring. All manner of traits she'd prefer not to mantle. So for now? It was speak only when addressed, or called on for her input. Who knows what going out of line again may cost her.
[04:42] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] [sub]hangs her head with a side-glance to just.. stare off at the floor. Very soft, squeaky voice. "..Fu set up the patrollers in a trap... with Vegeta. I trusted him.. ....Gravy and Shroom attacked. I.. I ended up on my own, surrounded.."[/sub]
[04:43] [user]Chronoa O Clock[/user]: [sub]I got back here.. but.. whatever they were doing... it's been done.[/sub]
[04:43] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] sighed quietly as he listened to her stating she hoped he was able to find himself living in a much better future. He had also listened to her describing the Nexus and Time cracks, the fox actually nodding his head and seeming to understand. He just stayed crouched as she talked, politely and rather eagerly listening to her. He clearly saw that fake smile, and just nodded his head once more. "I uh... Yeah I can make more. I packed seeds with me. It's just a simple salve of numbing plants and agents, and a few that helps to relax the muscles. I don't... Exactly have a lot of medical field knowledge. Just had to learn to stitch up my comrades and repair my own wounds, because the guards always just threw me in the cells with a few bit of supplies... I had to learn to remove arrows, or fix broken bones myself.

And no.. I don't have anywhere to stay. To be honest... After my last battle, I was just wandering aimlessly when I saw a bright flash of light, and what looked like a rip in front of me.. I touched it, and landed up on the rocks. I just started a fire and cooked myself a cup of tea, and actually was leaning back and looking out into the sky, content to sit there until the day that death finally came to take me, after I walked with them for so long on the battlefield. But then I heard the fighting and... Well all this happened."

But then, she asked about him being able to fly, and a deep, booming chuckle left his chest, as he shook his head. "I've flown once in my life... And that was when a catapult shot knocked me through the air from the impact near me. All this armor... I don't exactly get off the ground very well..."

But... Something was bothering him. He just crouched there, watching her. The man could barely read, wasn't very educated... But he was always a good judge of character. And he could easily tell something was bothering him, and so, he slowly brought a paw up. The large, calloused paw rested gently on her good shoulder, as he looked into her eyes, his voice going low and quiet. "[sub] Let it out Chronoa. It may sound strange, but I don't know you, and you really don't know me. I can see... Somethings bothering you ma'am... Just let it out. I promise you, with what I've become... I will be in no place to judge. Wounds that leave physical scars do not cut as deep as wounds to the soul. Woulds to the body heal like clean cuts. Wounds to the soul heal like jagged rips, slow and unevenly. It is best to bandage a wound when it is fresh, than to let it fester and rot before trying to fix it.. [/sub]"

And with that, he sat back, clattering a bit as he did so. The fox seemed at total ease in the armor, as he rested back on his heels and looked around. He then dug around in a few of the pouches at his hip, before pulling out a leather flask. And he held it out to her, his voice still rather quiet. "Or at least, keep your energy up. I'm sure in a magical place like this, there are great, healing foods... But I have never found any to work as good as well seasoned venison soup. This is my last batch.... Please take it. As good as it is, I'm going insane from how much I've drank.."
[04:43] [user]Conqueror Iskander[/user]: [sub] And she had to save me. Because I am dumb fox. [/sub]

[04:46] *[user]Demigra[/user] [sub]leers at the Fox with his browless face. "Who the hell are you?!" But he hardly gives the creature time to answer before he growls, sets her down and [b]heals her arm.[/b] "... hmph. The fool has full turned to the side of Mechikaboola? ... I doubt it. If he truly had, you wouldn't be here and I would have heard from my secretary by now... but that just means that we're part of a deeper game to him, now.... tch.

[04:58] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] was about to reply to Iskander even as she pretty much dangled there. Only.. she was set down. Not dropped. No, no.. she was [b]set down.[/b] For the second time in the day shock came as she found herself staring at her [b]healed arm[/b].. which resulted in her flexing it and toying around. "................" It wasn't that she didn't hear Demigra.. but... healed arm! And.. and.. and she didn't have to handle it herself. Like she told the fox, she could have.. Granted... it was nice having someone around who cared and was oblivious to her capabilities, despite he caught her at a rare point in time.  [color=pink][b]"HAH!"[/b][/color] Chronoa perked up, arms forming into proper pose as she stood next to Demigra and gave him a slight elbowing. "Then we're going to play their games-- [b]but we're going to win![/b]" That smile was a bit less forced as she glanced between Demigra and the very helpful, kind vulpine.
[05:00] [user]Demigra[/user]: "... don't look that sad again, stupid girl."

Demigra said, tersely, curtly, as he turned around and walked off...
[05:03] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] blinked in surprise at it as, as Iskander slowly took a step back. He looked over at Demigra, just giving him an analyzing gaze with his glittering green eyes as he stood up to his full 6'3 height. He gazed back down at his flask of soup, and just held it back out towards Chronoa, unsure of what to do in the situation. "That was... Interesting to say the least.. And here ma'am. Please take this with you. I have more food, and quite frankly... It seems like you could use a good soup to relax. "And with that, he slowly crouched down, grabbing a hold of that battered and dented helmet, before strapping it to his waist. He stood back up and watched Demigra walking away, the fox speaking out to answer his question. "Just a Wanderer.. "Was all t hat he spoke, before sighing and looking at Chronoa. "I... Don't know w hat to do ma'am... I do want to stay and help here... But I saw those people throwing out things I never knew possible... Taking out pieces of earth with no effort... Even summoning soldiers.. What is there that I could possibly do to help against such things?"
[05:09] *[user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user] sighed with a throw back for him to lay and close his eyes, hands clasped behind the Prince's head and frown placed firmly onto his lips. "Let us hope that she's alright. If I saw correctly, she didn't so much as flinch when that scythe wielding circus freak attacked and I fear that she might have sustained damage." He paused, taking deep breath as he rolled over onto his side, and curled slightly. "I'll check on her later and make clear what happened today, for now I intend to rest." Slight raise of his brow. "I would suggest that you do the same, stress from exhaustion will make you useless in battle. The last thing I need is for you to be too tired to function if I need your assistance in a fight."

[05:17] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] couldn't help but gain even [b]more[/b] of a smile, trying to hide it behind a curled digit as her fist tucked to her chin. "At least you're finally contributing so maybe you'll start pulling your weight around here!" She called out after Demigra, voice laden with her usual sass as both hands went to her hips. It was a long moment when she stared after him in quiet before looking to Iskander and taking the flask of soup in her hands, giving it a small sniff. "Oh.. you'll have to tell me what's in it sometime! As to helping well.. This place is safe-- as safe as you'll get from them. Demigra-- that jerk!-- and I have set up barriers and spells to protect against entry of any demons.. well.. except Fu. He's always made himself an exception by being exceptional... He's just never done anything this [b]malicious[/b] before! ..or so I think.. Still, you'll be safe staying here for the most part. You can even look into training with the Patrollers and learning about ki. As for helping, even that mix of stuff you gave me is good. Anything helps really.. and frankly, the less damage I have to take and absorb, the better. Today I.. I should have been fine, I just... well.. I'm good now! Past's behind us, right?" Chronoa gave a wink with that grin... but it faltered to that bittersweet as she looked off in the direction Demigra had gone once more.
[05:18] [user]Demigra[/user]: [sub]she keeps trying to stare at my ass.

this is going straight to the litigation box.[/sub]
[05:18] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: [sub]To be fair, at that height your ass is all she can really stare at.[/sub]

Saiya-Jin Pride: [sub]To be fair, at that height your ass is all she can really stare at.[/sub]
Chronoa O Clock: [sub]Exactly![/sub]

[05:21] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] nodded his head to her words, even as he watched her wink falter as she looked off in the direction Demigra walked. And he slowly stepped forward, bringing his large paw down to rest on her shoulder as he spoke up. "Never let the past haunt you. You cannot change it, So there is no reason to dwell upon it. Merely work towards the future, so that when the time comes... You won't have a past that haunts you." And with that, he gently let go of her shoulder before taking a step back. Iskander looked down at his elbow, quietly sighing at the sight of the blood on the spikes, angry with himself for having instantly went to try to kill the creatures that attacked him. He shook his head, lifting it to gaze down at chronoa once again. "I shall do so. If you want me to make more vials of that salve, I'll have to find a place to plant the seeds and cultivate them. I'll get on that once I figure out.. How.. To uh.. Get back to the rock where I was sleeping... "And it was at that point that he realized he was completely lost.. And he just let out a quiet chuckle at his own stupidity of his situation.
[05:24] *[user]Timelost Gine[/user] kept a listless gaze and her mouth shut. Every time she has stepped out onto a battlefield thus far she has been chastised ceaselessly for doing wrong, getting taken advantage of or otherwise her accomplishments getting snubbed. Though this was the first time she could see the results of the agonizing, persistence regardless. Indeed, no one save for her truly gave a damn about her progress...and that progress saved lives today. Galen didn't celebrate it with her. Pan didn't celebrate it with her. Neither her son, grandson or immediate family. Lives that she intended. Not on someone else's behalf.

Always being told or implied she belonged on a kitchen over a battlefield, and yet she simply saw the absolute worst and pathetic excuses for fighters being handed free power and not knowing what else to do with it other than being an insufferable, self-aggrandizing fruit loop. It was enough to drive even the most steadfast of minds at least a little unhinged all things considering. How unfortunate that extended to the alleged rulers of creation as well.

For fuck's sake, she had been [b]beaten[/b] in response for [b]saving someone's life.[/b] Not a single given thanks, just more harsh and eroding words. It was a first experience for her too, not once did she see anyone in that light treat her that way. Bardock certainly didn't.

Thankfully she was not batshit crazy enough to outright cut out her tongue and hurl it at Vegeta, though one can only handle such self-deprecating thoughts for so long before slinking back in. The events of today taught her one important lesson she had been neglecting.

She's on her own. If she wants to get strong? That's up to her. [b]Everyone[/b] was competition, especially the people who you surround yourself with. Those are the ones most eager to stab you in the back.

As if mockingly, she tore open a rift within the Watch itself wider than normal and stepped through, finding herself within her home. She stared at her palm, truly beginning to question if she was fighting on the right side...based on how she's been treated thus far.
[05:25] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: [sub]Gine is contemplating [color=red]Dark Side.[/color][/sub]

[05:27] [user]Gine[/user]: Has Gine explained how she feels?
[05:27] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: She did
[05:27] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Then Vegeta beat her.
[05:27] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: [sub]Hello, my name is Vegeta. I'm an asshole. Nice to meet you.[/sub]
[05:27] [user]Gine[/user]: Or has she been a little mean back?
[05:28] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Also explained it to Pan and Galen who just went silent and went back to talking about power levels or somethin
[05:28] [user]Gine[/user]: Maybe they were having their own conversation and were really interested in finishing it
[05:28] [user]Gine[/user]: [sub]You can't really be mad at Vege for being a prick[/sub]
[05:29] [user]Gine[/user]: [sub]It's most of his character[/sub]
[05:29] [user]Prince Bejita[/user]: [sub]Challenge accepted.[/sub]

[05:29] *[user]F u[/user] VANISHES
[05:29] [user]F u[/user] has left the channel.
[05:29] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] Was she crying? The way her shoulders raised and bobbed, how her hand covered her nose and eyes... Was she crying?! Standing there with the fox's paw upon her shoulder and head bowed.. "....nghn.. hnngk.. ahahahaHAHAHA!" Nope, that was the opposite of crying. Chronoa laughed so hard that her cheeks hurt, having to thud her knuckles to her chest a bit. "Talking to me about not changing the past? Okay, you're cute. That's adorable."

She giggled again with a shake of her head. "I.. I'll explain exactly who I am later... Let's uh.. I guess.. find you a rock?..." That's what he wanted, right? "You won't go far from here being unable to fly or otherwise get around sooooo.. I'm sure there's some rocks outside. I like beds myself."

[05:30] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: [sub]In retrospect, Vegeta saying that she needs rest in order to be of assistance in case he need to rely on her is basically thanks and a saying that she did good. After already saying that with how things appeared, she made the right call to pull him away, but he were furious that she disobeyed him telling her to protect the Kai.[/sub]
[05:30] [user]Gine[/user]: Vege hits his own son cuz he feels like it
[05:30] [user]Gine[/user]: Lower class saiyan ain't nothin'
[05:30] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: [sup]Actually I hit him most of the time to get him to shut up[/sup]
[05:30] [user]Gine[/user]: You feel like hitting him will get him to shut up
[05:30] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: [sub]Or because he sassed me, I hate sass.[/sub]
[05:31] [user]Gine[/user]: I'm not saying it doesn't work I'm saying I'm right too
[05:31] [user]Gine[/user]: Point is
[05:31] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: [sub]I mean it does! Can't exactly talk when you've the wind knocked out of you.[/sub]
[05:31] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: [sup]Other me, back me up on this.[/sup]
[05:31] [user]Gine[/user]: If someone is mean to you
And you're mean back
[05:31] [user]Gine[/user]: People will continue being mean
[05:31] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: At this point, Gine is unhinged and considering her intrinstic moral code. As the logical conclusion to all the interactions thus far. It only took that particular last one as a trigger to that buildup for her to consider 'Am I really fighting for the right people, based on how they treat me? If our goals aligned, then I wouldn't be treated this way. I've talked about it each time, only for it to get much, much worse'
[05:32] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: The logical conclusion then is to restructure that code
[05:32] [user]Gine[/user]: I'll be honest I'm not following a lot of this nexus's story but
[05:32] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] [sub]isn't mean! Is adorable and innocent and a perfect cook![/sub]
[05:32] [user]Gine[/user]: Can she consult Bardock?
[05:32] [user]Gine[/user]: Feel like he'd be able to talk her out of it
[05:33] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] listened to her laughing, and that brought a small smile to his face. He was honest about what he said, but with her having spoken so much about the Time Patrol, and the Rifts and what not, he had figured that there were people that could change the past.. And was happen that him speaking as if he was ignorant got her to laugh. Being called cute threw him for a bit of a loop, as he just shook his head and crossed his arms over his chest, his armor clattering a bit more as he did so.

"I haven't slept in a bed in a decade Ma'am. And I don't own a bed. So if I wanted to sleep in a bed, that would mean I would be sleeping in somebody else's bed, and that is a very rude thing to do.. So I've slept on a stone floor of a prison cell for 10 years. I can sleep on stone still... It doesn't bother me to do so if it prevents bothering other people.."
[05:34] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: She doesn't really have a Bardock. There are Bardocks, but none to call her own. If you're talking about the Time Patroller one they've kinda set up....limits on what is and is not shared. Though if it's brought up the next time they train or happen on another then sure.
[05:34] [user]Gine[/user]: I'm not talking about any Bardock in particular because
[05:34] [user]Gine[/user]: [5:31]Gine: I'll be honest I'm not following a lot of this nexus's story but
[05:35] [user]Gine[/user]: I mean does she not see her family at the end of the day and know she's doing right?
[05:35] [user]Gine[/user]: I feel like the only 'code' Gine needs is her maternal instincts
[05:35] [user]Gine[/user]: If you take her love for family/goku/bardock/whoever away from her, she's what, a rogue saiyan that can't fight
[05:36] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: Consider this, Gine is someone who has seen how Saiyan normally treat one another. Especially one which steps on their toes and yanks them away from battle or possibility of a kill. Normally the offender would have been roflstomped on the spot. The fact is Vegeta withheld his further strikes and more so struck her to calm her shit.
[05:36] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: I can respect that, although I get a teensy bit under the hood with how I go about the characters I play. What makes them tick other than a walking pair of breasts and 'Im a parent, Hi'
[05:36] [user]Gine[/user]: Under the hood
[05:36] [user]Gine[/user]: I'm curious as to what your definition of that is
[05:38] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Right, and that empathy is being flipped on it's head and she's being chastised for it. She's always been 'That one weird saiyan who CARES about others and HAS A FAMILY'
[05:39] [user]Gine[/user]: Right
[05:39] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: He didn't chastise her for caring, he chastised her for not listening and rushing in hot headed.
[05:39] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] tilted her head and peered up at Iskander curiously, pressing her tongue to her cheek. "Sleeping in someone else's bed is comfortable. Besides, we purposely have housing and beds for people because those who end up in this place are trapped. They need somewhere to go and these familiar areas help, so we're lucky they're here. So whatever open bed or home you want, is yours. Trunks even got a few capsules made so you can move the location if you really want to."
[05:39] [user]Gine[/user]: So someone is chastising her ideals
[05:39] [user]Gine[/user]: There's conflict
[05:39] [user]Gine[/user]: It exists, people have differing opinions
[05:39] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Which he didn't explain. You see when you BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF SOMEONE and don't EXPLAIN WHY. You leave that person to FILL IN THE WHY themselves
[05:40] [user]Virtuous Gohan[/user] has joined the channel.
[05:40] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: He did explain, he told her to protect the Kai, that was the single job he gave her. Yet she rushed in and nearly threw away her own life. He said that.
[05:40] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: 'Whats wrong with me? Why did this happen?' 'Oh. It must have been this' It could be correct or incorrect. It doesn't matter in either case, only that the value is being questioned.
[05:40] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: He even spilled the beans about him and Fu's plotting.
[05:41] [user]Chronoa O Clock[/user]: [sub]That's true. Everything was explained.[/sub]
[05:41] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] that.. stunned him in all actuality. He listened to her, turning to look at her and blink slightly in shock. "I... Any open bed or home? I could... Actually have a home again? And what do you mean a capsule? "Iskander asked, before he shook his head, starting to become slightly skittish. "Well Chronoa.. I'm sorry... But you are speaking of so much, and I want to go see it. How do I get down from here so I can go wander and explore this new land? It's... I'm still getting used to being able to be outside and not be in chains or in war.."
[05:42] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Did he ever explain why he lost the restraint and beat her? No, just random shit she wasn't personally invested in.
[05:42] [user]Gine[/user]: He's Vegeta
[05:42] [user]Gine[/user]: Reason enough
[05:42] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: He did.
[05:42] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: He said for her to calm down.
[05:42] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: It was one hit to the cheek.
[05:43] [user]Virtuous Gohan[/user]: [sub]yay for fail internet[/sub]
[05:43] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: So don't be surprised when she questions the culmination of all the events leading to that point. Because that kind of manipulative violence does cause that to turn inward.
[05:43] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Now I can understand if you're all 'BUT GINE DOESNT DO THAT IN CANON REEE' then that's all fine and dandy. However I made this with the intention of having a character that changes with it's own interaction. That's been the fun for me.
[05:44] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: I've catalogued everything, even made an alignment and faction list for reference. It's in the kinks too
[05:45] [user]Gine[/user]: So can I ask
[05:45] [user]Gine[/user]: What happens when Gine goes evil?
[05:45] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: That's a good question. I don't know!
[05:45] [user]Gine[/user]: Things don't get better. Vegeta'll be happy to actually beat her
[05:45] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: My guess was her empathetic nature would cause her to gravitate towards Fu and slowly wean herself off contact with others.
[05:45] [user]Gine[/user]: Wait
[05:46] [user]Gine[/user]: She's empathetic towards just Fu?
[05:46] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: That's not what I'm saying here at all. What I'm saying is that Vegeta explained himself to the best he knows how, the dude isn't about to suddenly turn mush because she turns on the waterworks. He's old school tough love is best love.

[05:47] [user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user]: [sub]what shenanigans did I miss?[/sub]
[05:47] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: I'm aware of this, however I'm just explaining the complicated process that's right more complicated than ought be.
[05:47] [user]Tobias Threat[/user] has logged in.
[05:47] [user]Gine[/user]: From what I can tell
[05:47] [user]Gine[/user]: Vegeta hit Gine for not doing her job and she's evil now
[05:48] [user]Gine[/user]: But I'm still trying to figure everything out
[05:48] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Well that's grossly undermining all the subtleties.
[05:48] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Which you can do, and proceed not to give a shit.
[05:48] [user]Gine[/user]: uh
[05:48] [user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user]: Wait, Gines evil now?
[05:49] [user]Gine[/user]: I'm just trying to figure everything out
[05:49] [user]Gine[/user]: I'm getting different stories from here and there
[05:49] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: She's evaluating her life choices, and that's in the air.
[05:49] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: It's only being complicated because I feel as though you're moving the character illogically towards something you as the player want instead of how the character would react within the situation. Gine didn't react really to his explanation, instead she just turned into a disgruntled Saiyan that were mad she'd been put in line.
[05:49] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Though that's a possibility, to consider if she's playing for the right team.
[05:50] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: You're fine to think that it's fail RP and that I'm not doing a good job with my character. I'm happy that's out there, though I can assure you I have very little personal attachment to the character.
[05:50] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: I highly doubt that were the first time Gine would have ever been hit for losing control of her emotions and losing her head, not to mention outright risking both mission and herself unnecessarily.
[05:50] [user]Gine[/user]: I
[05:50] [user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user]: [s]RKOS Vegeta for corrupting her battle sister[/s]
[05:51] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: [s]THROWS FASHA IN JAIL FOR INSUBORDINATION[/s]
[05:51] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Literally...trying to justify domestic violence between herself and Bardock. Nice.
[05:51] *[user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user] [s]breaks the hell out and starts a riot. [/s]
[05:51] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: . . . . Saiyan really don't have definition of domestic violence. . .
[05:51] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Bardock and Gine aren't most Saiyans. In case ya didn't notice.
[05:52] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: What they have is unique
[05:52] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: So, what you're telling me is.
[05:52] [user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user]: I do enjoy the Bardock/Gine ship.
[05:53] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: That because Gine got hit once, because she were literally about to get herself killed.
[05:53] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: She wants to turn evil.
[05:53] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: No, what I'm saying was that was her limit.
[05:53] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: And that she's re-evaluating life choices
[05:53] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Which that may end up being an outcome
[05:53] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: That she were disciplined for a horrible decision when he told her to hang back and keep her safe?
[05:54] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Honestly, it's like. Why even bother with nuance with such simpletons? lol
[05:54] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: Vegeta has seen first hand how strong Fu is and knows that Gine would die if she tried to confront him.
[05:54] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: How many times do I have to say it? You keep dumbing it down to spite me.
[05:54] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: Actually no.
[05:54] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: Personally, I give zero fucks.
[05:55] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Oh I can tell with your lambastic accusations of me failing to keep to my character.
[05:55] [user]Saiya-Jin Pride[/user]: I'm just annoyed that this has blown from little issue to what I honestly see as a tantrum.
[05:55] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Know you? You can go get fucked.

[05:56] [user]Conqueror Iskander[/user]: [sub] Well that was interesting..[/sub]
[05:56] *[user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user] clearly missed something big.
[05:56] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: Message received. It won't be brought up again.
[05:58] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: It's fine, Fasha. Not a big deal. Let's just...keep to play and keep it going. I know you wanted to do your thing and make your big entrance into the Void Nexus.
[05:59] [user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user]: Sure, I'm down if theres not anything going on currently play wise.
[06:00] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: As far as I know, everything's been wrapped up.
[06:01] [user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user]: Alright, I'll tip Chronoa off to what I have planned a bit for future interactions then we can jump in.
[06:03] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: I'll go ahead and PM you the last post I made in logs. Currently she's at her little Capsule house set in the Void Forest. Living with Pan, a smoll Kakarot and Galen Striker.
[06:05] [user]Mitu Pai[/user] has left the channel.
[06:06] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: And there may be a pastebin of logs that Fu left up for the entire event if you wanted context for that too
[06:07] [user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user]: Eh I got the general idea. No worries. I'll get started on my post.
[06:08] [user]Timelost Gine[/user]: [eicon]thumbs up[/eicon]
[06:11] [user]Timelost Gine[/user] is now Do Not Disturb: If you don't understand the concept of Choices and Consequences and Dynamic Characters being the culmination of their expereinces, you can fuck right off.
[06:27] *[user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user] entered the nexus via a time crack, the veteran Saiyaness turned Time Patroller looking around as she emerged near the Void Forest. She had been sent to investigate by her Supreme Kai of Time, but had no real information about the place, aside the fact that that it was some sort of anomaly. "Tch guess I better get to scouting around and see what I can find, hopefully this was worth pulling me off my last job. Why she chose me to do recon of all things..." She muttered as she cracked her neck a bit. Her scouter pinged, surprising the warrior as she looked off towards the ki signature, her heart nearly stopping as she felt not only the familiar energy, but read the unique reading on her scouter. "Gine? It can't be..." She muttered, taking to the air and heading in the direction of that ping of hers. Fasha had come across Gine a few times in the course of her duties, but this was the first time that her scouter had actually reacted to one, not only that, but it was attempting to link up with Gines as well, something it never did with the others. She had to check this out for herself.
[06:27] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] knit her slender brows with a small nod at his reaction. "Of course you could.. I mean, right now the Void Nexus is home to many of us, but you can have an actual home with walls and stuff. Even a roomba! They're adorable! Trunks makes them and they're amazing!" Chronoa was just about to gush a bit before reeling herself back and regaining some bit of poise. "Follow me. Now.. you won't be able to fly fragment to fragment like others, so communication will be hard.. I suggest you stick to the Void Forest by the Koi Koi River. it seems to be the safest area. Here.." As the kai walked onward and led way through and out of the Nest Wing building, she pulled forth a map from the air in a whirl of white-gold hues. The rolled parchment was then offered to Iskander. "This is a map of the Void Nexus as we know it right now. You're at The Watch.. so see what I mean about travel and such? However... I have one more thing for you." The next item she summoned to grip was a scouter with a green lens, offering it up to Iskander. "This is called a scouter. It's a neat gadget! You press this button here and you can talk into it, and reach out to others who have the same gadget. This dial here is good for switching channels for open communication.. This button here sends out a signal that gives your location to others.. This one here is neat! It lets you read the power levels of other beings." Chronoa beamed, seeming excited to return some kindness and items to the vulpine in exchange.
[06:28] [user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user]: [sub]ack, I posted right when Chronoa did, didnt realize something else was still going on.[/sub]
[06:28] [user]Chronoa O Clock[/user]: [sub]Two scenes can happen. We had three earlier. [/sub]
[06:29] [user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user]: [sub]ok just making sure~[/sub]
[06:33] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] slowly, and rather awkwardly reached out to take the map after he followed her. He unrolled it and stared at it, his features furrowing as he focused... Before sighing in embarrassment, and admitting defeat. "I... Can't read Ma'am...Never went to school... I was raised tending the land and livestock.. "He spoke up, the quietness of his voice just dripping with anger at himself, and shame. But then, she held out the scouter and he looked at it in confusion. Iskander slowly picked it up, having never seen electricity or screens like this. He seemed to examine it for a moment and listened to what she said. "Wait.. Open Communication? You mean that I can speak to somebody when they are not within earshot of me!? "His voice rose in awe at what he was staring at, before he turned to look at her.

And he just gazed at her for a moment, before looking out across the sky and quietly sighing. "How much are these things work Chronoa? Such.. Magical items surely cost a pretty coin. Please... If it's valuable ma'am I can make it without it... I don't want you spending a lot on me... I have no way to return it.. "

Now that they were outside, and the sunlight was hitting him and they weren

Now that they were outside, and the sunlight was hitting him and they weren't in a panicked situation, more features were visible about him. His face, albeit covered in brown fur, had many patches of grey that showed thick, and thin scars crisscrossing over his face and head. There were even a few visible underneath grey patches on his neck. His armor showed tears and dents, gashes and dings visible underneath the black leather, and even his denim jeans showed rips. The chainmail under his arms showed a few missing links, and his helmet showed a myriad of dents and scratches. Iskander let out a quiet huff, looking up at the sky before bringing his hand up to gently run over his neck. "I've been free for a month... And it's still amazing to look up at that sky and know that nobody is putting a collar and chain on me anymore..."

[06:48] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] had.. never heard that one. Can't read?... Chronoa was born into divinity and was a scholar. His tone brought a flush of red to Chronoa's cheeks as she fumbled a little. "Ahhaha.. I'm sorry! Hah.. I.. well.. I can at least point out the areas and tell you their names. Would that help?" The kai rubbed at the back of her head in further nervous fashion, only to actually bounce back and.. hover in place from his sudden raise of voice. "Y-yeah, yep.. sure can! This technology stuff is really neat, right?!" She laughed softly and touched down, only to give the vulpine the most blankest of puzzled looks. "How much?.. Pretty coin?.. Spending?... Uh..." Her jaw dropped a bit at the foreign concepts. Chronoa was still getting the finer points of social aspects, including currency, despite it was a thing in Conton City and popular among many patrollers.

His scars... They actually reminded her of Bardock's a bit.  Chronoa glanced to her healed arm then back to Iskander with a tilt of her head. It was a big reminder of mortality. "Free.. for a month.." There it was, the guilt of having banished Demigra for.. millions of years.... While he hadn't been chained up or tortured, Chronoa knew of the isolation-- it was something she had subjected herself to. Swallowing hard, she forced down the feeling and instead went to take hold of his paw. "The scouter and map are yours! So.. let's go find you a rock!" Had she managed to grasp his hand, Chronoa went to take flight, her aura of soft white and gold enveloping the vulpine in a hugging warmth much like a soft breeze on a summer's night.
[06:56] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] chuckled q uietly as he stared down at the scouter, just examining it. However, he then noticed her hovering up into the air, and lifted his gaze to just watch, a look of awe across his face. But then, he felt her reaching down and taking hold of his paw. His paws were large, and completely covered in steel plates except for a leather grip on the palms and inside of his fingers. He gently gripped her paw, clearly doing his best not to squeeze very hard as he tucked the scouter and map into a pouch at his side. "Well, Thank you so much ma'am... So, how are we... "And she suddenly lifted up.

Iskander's entire body tightened up as he howled out in shock, his paw clamping down on her hand. Of course, with gods and other beings around, they would be much stronger than he was. But, even for such a large, athletic creature, his grip was incredibly strong from years of combat with a flail and shield, and growing up with farmwork before that. His other paw came up and, Iskander not thinking in his panic, grabbed a hold of her waist. He hugged himself close to her, slowly stopping his roaring of a shout. "FOR THE LOVE OF THE FATES, DON'T DROP MEEEEE!"

Iskander shouted out, his armor clattering in the wind as they flew, the male hugging close to her as he tightly closed his green eyes..... Chronoa having found the one thing in life that came close to actually scaring him anymore...

[07:05] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] couldn't help the mirthful laugh that escaped her, a drastic contrast to how miserable she had been before Demigra came along and healed her. His armor was of no problem or hindrance for her, but she was noting the feel of it... even as his grip tightened hard and switched to her tiny waist! Chronoa's face took on the most brilliant or red as her arms flailed a bit before she stilled, with them hovering there. "Waaah! I-I won't drop you! I'm not that clumsy!" Indeed, her aura kept them both afloat over the Nexus, revealing the seemingly limitless drop into the void beyond those floating fragments that landscapes inhabited.

Support..
It was something she was trying to get better at.

With the vulpine having such fear, Chronoa had an idea. "Kai Kai!" In a blink, he would feel the ground under his feet as the two were transported down to the ground of the Void Forest, just along the shore of the Koi Koi River. Chronoa was in the air still, but her meager weight was in his arms given that he was standing now. "I'm so used to people understanding the basics of ki and everything, I guess I forgot that not all mortals are used to such, even if they can't do it themselves. Sorry! Are you alright now, Iskander?"
[07:09] [user]Saiyan Soldier Fasha[/user]: [sub]gonna save my post for later since Gine passed out.[/sub]
[07:09] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] just kept his eyes closed, not able to see the beautiful sights of the ground below him. He then heard her shout out, and felt his feet pressing against solid ground. Iskander slowly opened his eyes, blinking the fear out of those glittering orbs before he looked at her, and realized that he had grabbed her waist, and squeezed her hand. Instantly, the vulpine tugged away from her, bringing his paws down to his side. "Ah! I am sorry ma'am! I didn't mean to grab you... It was just.. A response...The time that I come from, going airborne above head height often meant injury or death.. And I kind of panicked... Yes.. I'm fine....."

But then, he looked down at her hand, before he swiftly looked around the forest, and down the shore of the river, trying to hide the embarrassment clearly visible upon his face. "I'm sorry Chronoa... I didn't hurt your hand did I?"

[07:28] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] 's cheeks reddened as well.. the jig was up. The last thing Chronoa wanted was for him to feel duped or lied to! So she landed before him and stood proud with hands grasping her hips and chin held high-- a far cry from the vulnerability displayed before him earlier. "It takes a lot more than that to hurt me! I am.. the Supreme Kai of Time! Or uh.. Lord of Time, Goddess of Time, Time Lady whichever wording gets the point across! I'm not as fragile as I look! You just.. ehehe... happened to catch me on a REALLY off day. It was probably less the direct hit and more of the fact that I'm.. more on my own than I realized in this big battle here. Still! A little tightened hand grip won't do any harm. I've taken on WAY worse over the years! See.. right now I'm trying to preserve this time and the existence of all inhabitants here from the distortions and evil of the Dark Empire and their meddling. Those guys are the worst! That's why we even call those jerks Time Breakers. Today you got to see two of their Demon Gods in action as well as the son of their Queen Towa, named Fu. The Saiyan, the guy with the big forehead is named Vegeta. He's a prince but that doesn't really matter anymore. What matters is that he too has access to godly ki and can utilize it, just like the gods or kai, such as myself. Of course no one can handle time like I can! That's all the amazing me! But yeah.. umm.. they're pretty terrible. Me and my assistant Trunks and Bardock run the Time Patrol, people from across the multiverse and all of time who come together to protect history from being altered and correct timelines, making sure times don't get lost or broken if we can help it. We preserve the records so things can happen as they have to keep the natural balance."

[07:45] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] blinked in surprise as she struck that pose, the taller vulpine gazing down at her. And then, he juts quietly listened to all of her words, a curious look upon his face. Once she finished, Iskander let out a quiet chuckle, before nodding his head. "The sacrifices of the good will always outweigh the deeds of the wicked.. What many sacrifice for evil, those that fight it sacrifice more.. But they sacrifice themselves, where as Evil sacrifices others... "Iskander slowly sat down on the river shore, gazing down along it before he looked back at Chronoa. He began to quietly speak, his voice still soft and deep as he began to unbutton and unstrap his armor.

The first part that came off was his arm pieces and shoulder pads. He slowly unstrapped them tugging the leather and fabric covers off to reveal muscular forearms. But where some had large mounds and bands of muscle, Iskander had tight ropes trailing over his arms. And even on his arms, especially on his elbow and hands, one could see a myriad of grey patches of fur. He then slowly went about untying his chestpiece, before suddenly pulling it away.

His chest was broad, but much like his arms. Instead of thick mounds of muscle, the vulpine was covered in tight bands and ropes of it, giving himself a much more athletic appearance than a body builder strength one. He wore a plain white linen covering his chest, as he brought his knees up and rested his elbows on them, looking over the river as he spoke.

"It sounds like you are under more stress than you put off. I was talking about losing ten years of my life, yet I'm sure a goddess of time has suffered for millennia... I'm sorry about my ignorance. And from what it sounds like, you have been battling some horrid people and creatures, and those that are incredibly strong... I wish I could help, but... I'm just a farmer at my core...Sure, I can don my armor and do battle with simple creatures, and fight wars...But not against what I saw. They were clearing parts of the earth with those damn Ki attacks.....I mean, I can cultivate crops and prepare salves and provide help like that, if it will be allowed... But I don't know if I have any Ki inside me... I've never shown anything special in my life except for being tough and determined...
[07:45] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] Wait...So your telling me... You have control of time? Wow...Chronoa...You are far stronger than I ever would be. Until I came to terms with what had happened.. If I could control time, I would've changed it all that happened to me and fixed it all without even thinking of the consequence.. It took a long time for me to learn that things happen for reasons..

And don't worry... We all have off days..."And with that, the vulpine slowly reached over to pat the ground beside him, as he dug around in yet another pouch at his waist. He pulled out a few small twigs and sticks, and blocks of wood. Iskander slowly aligned them into a pile, before pulling out a small flint and steel, and a pouch of wood shavings. He put the shavings into the pile, and began to strike the flint until the sparks ignited the shavings. Slowly, the fire began to rise and take over the twigs and blocks, Iskander making a tiny, portable camp fire as he looked back at the Supreme Kai of Time. "Sit....I think of all of us... You need to relax... Let me make you a hot cup of tea, and just listen to the sounds of the river, or sit here and talk. We all need to take some time to just... Listen to a fire and enjoy a cup of tea..."

Iskander then reached over and grasped a hold of his shield. Now that chronoa could see the underside, it was clear that the shield was much thicker than it looked. He pulled open a few latches, and a compartment was shown. Iskander pulled out a small pot, and two small steel mugs. He stood up and slid down the banks to the river, filling the pot up with water before clambering back up them. And he put a small wire mesh inside the pot, about halfway down, before reaching into his shield and pulling out a piece of linen tied into a small bag. He set it on the wire mesh, before closing the pot and setting it onto the fire to heat up. Iskander leaned back and looked over at the Kai, watching her for a moment.

"I want to help..."Was all he said, in a clear, definitive tone. "I want to mean something more than just a prisoner, or just a farmer. I want to help. Out of all the things I had to fight, all the wars I've been in... I never supported the cause. From what I hear... You have a noble cause... And I want to fight for something right. I want to save lives... Not take them..."

[08:15] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] beamed to herself as she tucked her hands back to her hips, casually watching Iskander remove his armor bit by bit. Sure, she was familiar with vests and Saiyan armor pieces and the like but this was.. was vastly different! It reminded her of armor she had read about times long, long past. His words also had her thinking with a thoughtful sound as her gaze turned skyward. "Suffered for a millennia.. Hmm.."

"Strange you put it that way. At the same time, ten years for you may not seem like much to myself, but for you, it's a drastic amount due to lifespan and existence. You don't need to apologize for not knowing things. I'm not some stuffy kai from Otherworld! The fact is that people shouldn't know about me or the workings of space-time, and them learning is mostly what caused the creation of the Time Patrol, aside for the need as others of great power began messing with time. In all actually, if things had.. gone as intended.. well.. not as initially intended, but as they were set in motion, I prooooobably would be spending another 75 million years in solitude at the Time Nest.. and Demigra would still be sealed away likewise in the Crack of Time..." It was a bit to think about, prompting her to copy Iskander's pose and settle down next to him, arms hugging her legs to her chest.

"Mortals are not meant to take on gods, but some do ascend beyond what is expected. That said, ki is the life force in all things. It may function different for you, but it's still there, even if by another name. As far as farming.. well.. never discount it. I mean, that's how food is grown and even Lord Beerus, the God of Destruction loves a good meal!" She laughed and settled her chin down, hand reaching forward and just calling up a bit of the water to swirl into the form of two circling koi fish. "That's the greatest temptation, to alter the past for your desire. I.. deal with others trying to force that on a regular basis. It's pretty complicated! Few understand the intricacies and fewer still can resist the opportunity.." Like Demigra.. Chronoa found herself once more staring at her healed arm as the water koi fell back into the water-- only they weren't just water, as in the liquid. The two fish seemed invisible there in the water of the river, but their motions and glimpses of body and form pushing against the currents showed otherwise-- they were real and alive?

She watched him with the fire, quirking a slender brow with an odd little smile toying across her features. "Sit and talk, huh?.. I used to do that, some time ago.... Okay, a long time ago. But I welcome the tea, so thanks!" Chronoa hadn't done anything like this in.. well.. she couldn't remember when! Being at the Time Nest was all she knew for the longest time... and back then, well.. things were different.

"Noble cause?... ..We sure do! The Time Patrol is all about the pursuit of corrections and preservation. But don't think you don't matter, okay? You do mean something more than you think, even if you don't see it. Still.. We can get you set up proper at The Watch or here, and you can take History 101 and be told all about some of the things that have happened, as well as watch some of the records. When you can read, then you'll have books! You'll receive training and I know a human named Galen Striker who would probably be your best bet for learning about ki and unleashing the powers inside you. While doing that.. maybe you could set up a garden at The Watch? I have a few senzu beans and it requires some special care to grow them. But between us, we could probably do it together, so long as they take." Hear yellow earrings bobbed from those pointed ears as she nodded to her own ideas.

[08:38] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] quietly listened to her speak, as he went to rummaging around in the shield at his side. Iskander pulled out a small wrapped bundle, and opened it up on top of his shield. It was a piece of parchment, with a mound of honey sealed in a vial. Beside it, in a few other vials, were a set of spices and herbs. Iskander, with the tea pot growing hot, reached out and opened it up, the fire not seeming to bother him even if the smell of burnt fur was faint, until he opened the pot and the smell of cooking tea filled the air. Iskander let it air for a moment, before he took a scrap of linen and poured a few tiny piles of spices. It was a pile of peppermint, lemon balm, and chamomile. He tied them all into the pouch, and tied a piece of twine around the top to seal it, before setting it in the pot beside the bundle of tea leaves. He then closed the pot.

His gaze lifted up as he watched those koi fish as she created them. A small smile came to his face, as he gazed at them. "Just like Ying and Yang, the stories from the Eastern countries. Life and death... Love and hate. Life must be perfectly balanced... Yes... Everybody wishes they could redo the past, and change what happened. I wished that for years, before I realized that life happens for a reason, and even the pain and suffering is meant to be." But, as they seemed to be invisible in the water, his sapphire green eyes seemed to perfectly follow them. But then, he went back to fiddling with the tea, getting the two cups ready.

He sighed quietly as he listened to her, before nodding his head. "One must always sit and talk at least at some point. Eventually, in my captivity, once I learned that my wife and daughter was killed... I wanted nothing more than death. I begged to finally meet a mortal that could meet me on the battlefield, and take my head from my shoulders... And then I realized how selfish that was. That if I died, then the memory of them died with me.. And so, I dedicated my life to surviving, and winning my battles... But then... All I craved... Was to be able to sit and talk with somebody. Even after being beaten blood, whipped until my hide stripped from my back, even having my lips beaten with stinging nettles... I just prayed for somebody to talk to...."

His head tilted to the side as he looked over at her, giving her a small smile, showing those rough, scarred up lips. Even in those depressed, haunting eyes... There was a light of hope, of that peaceful nature still fighting."Even if it's with a complete stranger... One always need somebody to talk to. And no.. Mortals aren't meant to take on gods. But if I had to, I'd do so with a smile on my face. I may get smacked away, but that is the beauty of life, and dedication. At some point.. You must ask yourself.. What is truly in your life that your willing to give that life up for it.."
[08:38] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] At that, the fox let out a small sigh, as he then saw the steam billowing from the pot. Iskander slowly reached down, wrapping his paw around the handle of the pot, his leather gloves blocking a lot but the smell of burning fur on his wrists could barely be smelled as he pulled the pot away. He then took the two cups, and poured the boiling, steaming tea into the cups. Iskander set the pot off into the coals at the edge of the fire to stay warm with the rest of the tea in it, as he then took a small wooden spoon.

Opening the vial, he scooped one scoop each of honey out of it, and put it into the tea. Stirring it around for a moment, he then reached into his shield, and pulled out two leather cup holders. Iskander slid the cups into the holders, and set one down in front of her.

"Enjoy, Supreme Kai of Time. It's a simple brew of tea leaves and some herbs and spices. It helps relax the muscles and the mind....And I must argue somewhat with you there ma'am. Right now... In this moment, I matter less than the dirt we sit on. The dirt provides food, nourishment, structure..And life. I have nothing going for me anymore, and no purpose at this time. I'm just a wandering dead man...Waiting for my day to meet the reaper and walk out of the life with him, as an old friend guiding their comrade. But... I want to try to help.. And mean something. I would absolutely love to set up a garden to help people with herbs and remedy... And whatever these Senzu Beans are..... I'm sure that given the time, I can learn how to grow them..."

Then, The fox sighed as he looked at the water. A small smile broke across his lips as he caught the sight of those fish swimming for a moment, before he watched the currents. "We must be like water in our lives.. Water can fill any container it's put into. It flows, it moves with the way of the land. It's flexible... Yet it can crash. It can come down with an unrelenting force that not even the toughest rock can stop... "And at that moment, he brought the steaming cup up to his lips. And took a small swig, before turning to look over at Chronoa. "We must know at what times to be flexible, and roll with the blows of life.. And what times to stand tall, and crash back against the rocks in our way. I may be uneducated.. and many view me as just a brute... But I had a long time to sit and think.... About life, the future, the past... What it means to be mortal..."

[09:11] [user]Chronoa O Clock[/user]:  /me certainly wasn't her usual self today. Oh no, no, no... All of this talk of 'we' stuff and work. Of course, she might have very well meant 'we' as in the Time Patrol, who she often handed work off to.  Now THAT was normal, just like her sass. Sitting and talking? Not so much! "I haven't felt that sort of loss before, not to the degree you have. I just.. long ago Demigra and I were charged with raising the bird of time, Tokitoki." It was a tale she hadn't actually voiced to many, but Trunks knew it well and rumors spread so patrollers and others did too.. just.. not her own take on it. "We were quite the team, back then.. but he changed. He even began experimenting on Tokitoki. I found out and confronted him, only to encounter him allied with two dark wizards by the names of Putine and Gravy.. ..Gravy was the one with the hammer today, only he's far more powerful in his Demon God form. I managed to banish them to the Demon Realm... However Demigra is persistent.. creepily so! I raised Toktoki on my own and was promoted to the Supreme Kai of Time, and he came back. He wanted to take my position.. which.. it didn't bother me as much as his desire to harm Tokitoki. To remake history in his own image... I.. I had no choice.. I.... banished him again.." Her gaze lowered to stare at the water ever so distantly as that pang to her chest returned. "For 75 million years.. I sealed him away in the Crack of Time... and I spent that time alone with Tokitoki..."

She laughed weakly.. only for it to grow once more with the brightness to her eyes. "I ended up dealing with so many distortions too but my best choice was when I confronted Trunks. See, he used a time machine and went back in time to alter history! That's.. well.. it's a bad risky thing to do. His changes didn't harm things and made them better so.. I let them stay but.. well.. he.. heh.. Trunks has had one interesting history! He's the son of Vegeta, the Saiyan with the big forehead and black hair from earlier. Anyways! Trunks ended up staying on to help me and became my assistant, as well as Leader of the Time Patrol... and of course, Demigra came back. Again.. and again.. and again.. Only now with.. with the chaos of the rise of the Dark Empire and the threat of Mechikabura, he and I have joined in an alliance. I went with it because.. well.. I'd rather team with a lesser evil to defeat the greater one. It's.. kind of like old times, like today. While I can take in the wounds of others, Demigra has the ability to heal others without the transfer of injury. ..Like old times... But I know that once we defeat Mechikabura, our own war will begin again....."

The cup in its cupholder was picked up, a nod given to Iskander. "Thanks.." Taking a small sip, Chronoa enjoyed the taste and sweetness of the honey. However, as Iskander discounted himself, the cup was set down. "That's the funny thing about you mortals.. You claim that in this moment, you matter less than the dirt.. and yet you forget that this is a moment shared." She leaned over into the fox, giving him a nudge with her elbow. "You're helping me, more than you know. You mean something to me and are really interesting! You've given me a moment that.. that I haven't had any semblance of for millions of years so.. ..Thank you." The tea was picked up once again and sipped upon in delight.

"As for meeting the reaper, you got attacked by him and his lackeys today. The one with the scythe.. Shroom, the Demon God of Death and Grim Reaper of the Dark Empire. But uh.. I wouldn't recommend taking any walks with him! He's dangerous.. to the point even other Demon Gods are leery of him. Rumor has it he's a fan of friendly fire and slaughters his own underlings. ...He must have been charging up his attack while I just.. froze. I'm the Supreme Kai of Time, I'm not supposed to freeze. I freeze time!" She huffed with reddened cheeks of embarrassment. "Fu... How could he?.... ....I've known brutes. Gravy is a brute. You're not a brute, Iskander... far from it."

[09:29] [user]Kumiko al-Khasu[/user]: [sub]I've only been here for a day... [s]even if I haven't said anything before now[/s]... and I'm already very confused.[/sub]
[09:29] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] just sat there, quietly listening to her speak as every so often, he took small sips of the hot tea. Iskander silently nodded his head as she told him the story of Chronoa and Demigra... Before a quiet sigh left him. "I know the sense of betrayal...My trainer, Aleska...He is the reason t hat I'm still alive today. When I was framed and thrown in prison, he saw me the day before the execution was to take place. Saw my body, and knew how tough I was... And he was the one that make the king decide to keep me alive and force me to become a soldier... Day after day of training, being broken, only to get stronger... He became my only friend, the only thing I looked forward to. He taught me the ways of combat, of parrying, of ignoring wounds... Until the day I found out that he was the one that ordered the execution of my wife and daughter... That was the same day I took my kings head off, and his as well... I remember. The armies of our kingdom and the enemies actually stopped in their battles as they seen me and him fight...And I came the closest to dying yet.

But then, she began to speak about the distortions and the time patrol. And Iskander went back to silently listenin, as he reached down and scratched at his stomach. His shirt lifted somewhat, showing the muscled abdomen and back of the fox man. That was where it was a mass of brown, white and grey fur. Clear whip marks of scars were visible criss crossing across his back. Gashes, a few of them still healing, ran all over his stomach and chest. Small arrow wounds, small sword cuts... There was barely an inch of flesh unmarked on his abdomen and back. He dropped his shirt, taking another sip of his cup.

But then, the Kai of time playfully nudged his shoulder with her elbow. Even through his thick fur and muscle, a slight grinding sensation of metal lodged in his shoulder was felt by her elbow. A barely visible wince was seen in the fox, before he went to respond to w hat she said. "I've.. Never viewed myself as interesting before Chronoa. I was always viewed as a simple, ignorant peasant.. And then as a brutal monster..."

He slowly stood up, the quiet sound of popping and crackling audible from his joins as Iskander crouched down over the fire. He grasped a hold of the tea pot and placed it back into the coals, before sitting back down. He brought his knees up to his chest somewhat, as he then began to rummage around in the storage of his shield. And he pulled out a small pouch, that when he opened it contained pieces of smoked venison and beef. Iskander set a few strips of the deer jerky and Beef jerky onto a piece of linen, and set it down beside the Supreme Kai of time.
[09:30] [user]Cabba[/user] has joined the channel.
[09:30] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] "Please... Try some. It's smoked deer and beef. It may not be much... But out traveling, I didn't really have the chance to make myself proper meals very often. I used to love cooking for my family, and even my friends at times, but I haven't gotten to do so in so long. And you speak of the god of death and not walking with him... I learned a long time ago... That death isn't something to be feared. It is to be embraced. A friend, to take you on your final journey of your life. We all must face it one day. That was why I was able to fight so well in battle. I was brainwashed into believing my death was fated, and I wouldn't fall until it was my fated day to fall. Hell... I still do..."

She then began to speak about not freezing, and he looked over at her. His green eyes seemed to g low slightly as a small smile played across his face, the fox gently reaching over to set his paw on her shoulder. "There is nothing wrong with freezing. It happens to all of us... Hell, the first time I went onto a battlefield, I actually wet my pants. I was pushed through the gates of the castle, and was greeted by a scene of the fields filled with dead bodies. Crows pecking at the rotting corpses, coyotes and wolves dragging the freshest away for meals, as thousands of men stepped on their dead brothers. The sounds of the swords clashes, the screaming and cries of pain. I still... To this day, remember watching as a man turned to shout orders to another troop, and a halberd struck him in the jaw, cleaving his jaw from his face, and then splitting his head in half. I got so scared I actually peed my pants... And then I realized that if I didn't fight I would meet the same fate...There is nothing wrong with freezing, as long as you work and make sure you don't do it again. And Chronoa... You haven't seen me shout out and try to rip men's head from their shoulders, or drive a shield through skulls....."

And with that, he slowly reached down. Iskander took a piece of jerky from the linen he had in front of him, a quiet laugh slipping from his lips as the pot began to heat up. "What I wouldn't give for a fresh piece of rabbit to make stew with at this time.."

[09:51] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] hadn't been exactly used to learning about others through just.. talking. Certainly not so in-depth! Chronoa flinched slightly, a visible discomfort as she imagined that must have been how Tokitoki felt when Demigra began experimenting on him. [sub]"..So used.."[/sub] It was a soft utterance, the pain of which gravitated to her eyes as she took in the sight of the marring of life through the fox's fur with that bit of fabric lifted.

"Can I uh.. ask.. what were their names?.. Your wife and daughter.." Social awkwardness didn't know if this was appropriate or not but.. she had a thought.. "I ask because.. This is a moment that will be recorded in the official history of this place and time. It will also be recorded in mine so.. even once you've gone to Otherworld, in some minuscule way, they and you will live on, even if just a memory. ..It will be my memory." Chronoa rubbed at the back of her neck, taking a large swig of her tea that caused her cheeks to puff up from just taking in too much at a time.

"I see you as interesting. I'm sure others will too! Because you are."

[sub]No. No no no. What's wrong with you, fox?! You mentioned...[/sub]
[b]COOKING![/b]

Chronoa's eyes lit up as she took the jerky with a swipe, munching on it hastily. "You must have excellent taste! You'll have to try my cooking. It's fantastic! Even fit for the gods. I've served them and other kai, Goku and even angels! My culinary skills are superb!" This exclamation ruled out everything else between her bites of jerky. "My pudding has been known to bring people to their knees!" [b][sub]BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO DIE FROM THE TERRIBLE TASTE.[/sub][/b] "And if you're so good at ripping things, I bet you'd be great at tearing up the lettuce for salad wraps and shredding the oakyoak roots thin as bean sprouts!" Did she really just gloss over all of that talk of gore and depth?... Yeup. Chronoa could prattle on about cooking for days.. [sub]JUST DON'T EAT HER COOKING.[/sub]

[09:57] *[user]Shroom[/user] [sub]doesn't have to do a damn thing to win this war. Just let Chronoa feed her people.[/sub]
[09:57] *[user]Conqueror Iskander[/user] slowly drained his cup of tea, as he quietly listened to her. He went about pouring himsel fanother, and then reached over to fill up  her cup of tea. Iskander set the now empty pot off, as he sighed to her question. He slowly sat back, reaching up to gently run his fingers over the green necklace adorning his neck. "Katie and Alexis.... Katie was my wife, and Alexis was my baby girl...Thank you... That.. Comforts me more than you know.. "

And with that, he took a swig of his drink before he heard her speaking about cooking. Iskander just watched her with a curious eye and a small smile. He didn't see any reason to not try her cooking. Even if it is a horrendous, terrible taste... The fox had been forced to eat absolutely grotesque things just to get any source of nutrition. He looked over at her, his mouth opening in a quite yawn as he then let out a small laugh. " I'd love to try your cooking at some point. I'll never turn down free food.. Especially if it's not meat cut off dead bodies. If I don't have to fight maggots for usable pieces, then I'll be happy with it... "
[09:58] [user]Conqueror Iskander[/user]: [sub] May... End up being the only person able to digest the Supreme Kai of Times food. And sorry about the smaller post.. I may end up going as I just fell asleep laying down on a broken, hard w ooden bench..[/sub]

[10:06] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] listened and enjoyed her tea and jerky with the strange armored vulpine. His words about her cooking brought on such a  pleased wiggle of her form as she finished her cup. Talking was good and all, but that yawn was an indicator. Having left Iskander with a scouter and map, Chronoa left him to his survivalist ways as he grew tired and returned to The Watch... It would be nicer to flop her butt onto a couch rather than the ground.

[10:50] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] [sub]It's a lot of paperwork. And no doubt there's a service charge and late co-pay bill pertaining to Demigra's aid along with a list of expenses itemized by Robel. [/sub]
[10:50] *[user]Taberyu[/user] [sub]begs pardon for mainly being silly so far. really like the place, just been a little nervous too[/sub]
[10:50] [user]Maxene Sita[/user]: [sub]That feel when you wanna do some ki blast training but you aren't sure if the Time Nest loops in on itself or goes on forever. o.o;[/sub]

[10:56] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] had slumped over across her desk with cocoa cup in hand, lazing there in exhausted fashion. She had yet to even bother with tending her clothing or anything else, but kept glancing at her healed arm. It wasn't just the fact that Demigra had healed her, but what he had said... and how he said it. Trunks would also find that there was a new stack of paperwork on his desk pertaining to a new recruit-- Iskander. It had his name and home of origin, classing him as an out-worlder from an unknown universe and a primitive time. She was having the vulpine man enrolled in a number of classes, including History 101 and had a note for the basics of reading and writing as well as understanding ki, set up for two tutor slots but only filled out one of them, with Galen Striker's name. Trunks could do the registration and rest of that stuff. Right? Riiiight. At least she wrote down that she gave him a scouter, and she even remembered to add the scouter's number.. ..in the wrong area. Eh, he'd figure it out!
[10:57] *[user]Chronoa O Clock[/user] would also be mighty upset if anyone did any sort of training or fighting near her Nest Wing. Ahem...
[10:59] *[user]Maxene Sita[/user] is FAR from the Boss's quarters. She is more working out, not doing damaging things, Chronoa! [sub]Please don't hurt the fluffy fox. ;-;[/sub]
