Don — Today at 6:27 PM
Darkness shrouded his vision. How long had it been since the Chaos Seed had taken hold over his mind? Days. Weeks. Months...he lost the capacity to track time.
His conscience floated to a different realm, and it was in this realm that he found himself in a green forest surrounded by greenery in the fog of night. It reminded him of a planet called Grace, but it had been so long ago since he stepped foot there.
"...Where...." He trailed off, his thoughts and words incomplete.
Rei — Today at 6:37 PM
"London, or perhaps the outskirts?" The voice came from the youthful look of a woman, clad in knightly armor. She might have looked like a knight out the medieval period, if it wasn't for the mechanical look to the armor as it slid smooth as water on his form.
Her crimson gaze swung over to the man as she grinned, "Then again, I wasn't the one that summoned us here." The android placed a hand on the sword at her hip, and drew the handle as it morphed like liquid medal into two short swords, simple in design, but sharp as the day they were first set to the whet stone.
"So, what'll it be, stranger? You may call me Yuna." She had the blades in reverse grip, able to simply place them away if he wanted a chat, or able to fight back if he chose that route.
Don — Today at 6:42 PM
The voice of the woman cut through the abyss, and Goku turned to meet her crimson gaze. She donned knightly armor, and he could have easily mistaked her for a Paladin. She brandished a longsword that transformed into two shorter ones, and on instinct his body reacted, his Ki flared a blood red that shrouded his frame.
"I...." Goku's demeanor did not match his words. He wanted to fight, to battle, yet the words he said next refuted his inner turmoil.
"Yu...na...." He grabbed his head, feeling like it was about to split open. "Grr! Ene...my?" He dragged out his question.
Rei — Today at 6:52 PM
Yua tilted her head at the man's confusion. It seemed that his body wanted one thing, but his head was not in the game. Well, that was fine on her end. The woman smiled a bit before she waved her hand and he would have sworn that wind fierce as a storm swept at his feet, as she made another motion with her other hand, and it almost felt like there was a chair under him. Actually, she had manifested a simple wooden one under him, should he have stumbled back.
"Sit for a minute." Indeed, he did meet a Paladin, but Yua was not one to attack someone on sight. Not without an actual reason. She did have standards, after all. "If you want, today, we can be enemies." The words might have been a whisper, but in the silence of the fog, he should be able to hear her.
Don — Today at 7:05 PM
A mighty zephyr swept through the forest, and Goku had been caught in it. He stumbled back, only to find himself sitting in a chair now. His teeth were gritted together, grinding, he did all he could to fight back the voices.
Rip. Tear. Shred. Maim.
But the woman's voice was an enigma to him, oddly soothing. Not tender but still kind, empathetic.
"I don't...." Goku spoke through gritted teeth. Memories flashed in his mind. The Chaos Seed that took hold of him, his time in the lab on Damaskia, the torture, the pain, the anger....one word came to him.
"Shadow...guard...." He breathed the words out. His allegiance wasn't worn in his simple dark karate gui, yet his eyes and splintered mind showed hints of one that struggled with the seed embedded within them.
Rei — Today at 7:13 PM
Well, it wasn't like she couldn't have guessed, but it appeared that whatever ate at this person wanted out. A release of sorts. It clawed at his mind, she guessed, as she just brushed against his mind, or at least attempted it. Luckily, she was able to resist Chaos, to some degree. A brush with Chaos was not much, as she had hung around Yan. He held it around him like a cloak at times.
The android smiled as she placed a hand on his shoulder, the false flesh not cold as a machine, but warm like an organic's hand. The twin blade that had been in that hand was in the other as she nodded her head. "Then we are enemies today. Release all of the negative emotions." She flashed back then, as she held her blades.
"Come at me, stranger in the mist." Though he couldn't feel it, the Paladin released some of the limiters on her body, as she stood ready with both blades in hand. Her eyes still held some empathy for the man. Disorientation was never fun to deal with, after all. "Release that emotion so that it doesn't consume your mind."
Don — Today at 7:22 PM
He felt the soothing touch of her hand upon his shoulder. It comforted him, even amidst the Chaos that shrouded his mind. When she spoke, Goku felt the anger, the rage, bubble up once more. Enemies...release....she had given him what his hatred sought - permission.
"Grrrrr!" Goku's aura spiked as he snarled, his ravenous hair stood on end when his Ki raised. He came at the knight like a beast on the prowl, leaping into the air with his knuckle coated in a sinsister dark energy, crackling with red sparks.
He tried to ram his fist into her cheek, then when his feet touched upon the ground, he attempted to follow up that strike with a hook to her gut.
Rei — Today at 7:27 PM
The first blow was that of a wild beast, and she could have ended the fight with him skewered like a pig. But that wasn't the goal here, as she spun on her heel as the fist sailed by her, her face calm in the mists. His other fist swung with a hook that struck her this time, though he might feel like he hit a brick wall his fist couldn't break through.
"Not bad," she replied even as the revenge strike was a elbow aimed at his head. Her arms had gone up during his attack, and the counter strike was vicious. Her strength was the moist notable thing in her style, and the follow up as a strengthen knee aimed to double the Saiyan warrior over. Hopefully he wouldn't vomit if struck.
She stepped back and away as she moved into the mist like a prowling specter, her blades the only sign that she was still manifested in this plane. "Come, again." She wasn't here to help him regain his calm mind, but Yua could release some of the pain that his mind went through.
