Yua vs Goku Jr 2 (Telepathic Link/Gem, Discord, complete)

She moved like a wraith, and his first strike had sailed past her. Yet his second strike was true to form and struck home, yet his knuckle felt as if it had hit against an impregnable wall. She spoke, and she quickly countered him with an elbow strike aimed at his temple. He never saw it coming, and Goku grunted at the pain when it landed, his sight blurred as he saw stars.

A hard knee careened towards his gut, and as he had already been staggered he was too slow to get out of dodge, thus upon impact he doubled over in pain and grabbed his abdomen, falling down onto one knee.

Her voice beckoned him on, and Goku replied with a feral cry that rocked the forest. An eruption of crimson energy blasts released from his body in all directions, a dozen in total, to try and circle around her and erupt upon contact in the darkened abyss, illuminating it with baleful red light.

Crimson illumination howled like the dark cry of a wounded animal in her mind, but the android was still in the mode of hunter. The twelve raged around as Yua uprooted trees with her mind and flung them at the blasts, her mind familiar with the technique. Energy flared like fireworks around her frame, as she glided through what remained of the mist, before it fell away as she stood in the crimson backdrop.

"I guess we're stepping it up," she said quietly as she motioned forward. She hadn't done nothing while she circled the enraged Saiyan as spikes of ice had formed behind him. Twin pieces, much like her blades, and she flung them to pin his legs. Cold, so cold that they burned like fire. But the physical objects fleeting.

With that, Yua calmed herself. She wouldn't kill him, but this exchange showed her just how volitile the Chaos Seed made a person. Yan always seemed calm, so she guessed this is what a newly minted Chaos Seed user was like. As unpredictable as the ocean.

In the haze of his anger, Goku failed to see the spikes of frost that manifested itself in the dark. Icicles with sharp ends flung forward towards his feet, penetrating his aura and pinning him to the ground. Blood sprinkled from his wound and he howled in pain, nearly falling down on his hands in the process.

The rage did not subside. He stared up at the knight with a vicious snarl, his teeth like fangs of a beast than that of a mortal's.

"Hate.....you.....!" He frothed, and from his mouth he shot out a dark red blast of energy for a desperate attempt to harm her.

Rei — Today at 8:02 PM
The blast hammered into the android, as she took that rage. It wasn't like the pain sensors didn't go off, and sure, a piece of the armor was flung away. Smoke billowed from where he had struck the android. But she strode through the smoke, her eyes hard on the form of the man before her. "Well, that did hurt some," she said. Her style was to never acknowledge the pain that an organic would be forced to show.

The android sped up suddenly as she pummeled him in the face, held back enough to grab at his hair. She looked into those eyes of red and nodded before she shoved her other hand against his chest, let go, and used that force of wind again, pushed with psychic energy. He probably had time to react, but it seemed that defense was far from this one's mind. At least for now.

"Hate just clouds you. Focus, remove the crimson haze. Focus on my face."

Don — Today at 8:45 PM
For once, even in his feral state, Goku's face grimaced with shock. He had truly expected for the specter of a knight to disappear, but instead she remained there, like a nightmare ever present in his psyche.

She moved quick in a flash within the black, and she struck him in his face, battering him and grabbing at his hair. Her crimson eyes bore into his own, and his face was marred with her bruises yet he remained defiant still.

She placed her hand on his chest, and a wind of energy pulsed against him. He resisted and remained firm, a shell of fire red Ki shrouded him to resist.

The knight spoke and her voice pierced through the haze, and for a moment he regained a semblance of consciousness. His eyes turned hazel, his expression softened, his feral fangs retracted.

"Are you...." He continued to stare into her eyes, and for a reason he couldn't explain, Goku trusted her. "...You aren't an enemy..are you...?"

Rei — Today at 8:51 PM
Ah, a semblance of his mind. The Paladin gave him a weak smile before she said, "No. I'm not your enemy." Well, it wasn't as true as everything. Damaskian Shadowguard and Avalanian Paladins were enemies. But in this instant, Yua wasn't really his enemy. They'd just met, after all.

With the calm in the eye of the storm, Yua sheathed her blades that molded back into one as she looked at the kli, curious as to the firey shell around the warrior. The hazel gaze would see that her gaze was still crimson. "Can I get your name?" Yua wondered if he would ever figure out the Seed that pulsated within him.

After all, every Chaos Seed was different. But the effects of the seed itself were mostly the same on one's mental state.

Don — Today at 9:32 PM
She said that she wasn't his enemy, and for a second Goku's Ki downed down, leaving only his softened features to bare in the darkness. When the knight asked for his name, he nodded in understanding, as if he had to even remind himself.

"Goku...." He said softly. "What is your name?" He asked her in kind, stepping a tad closer, not threatening at all but, in a friendly way, accepting. He hesitated when he did so, seeking to be comforted yet not willing to initiate it.

Rei — Today at 10:07 PM
He must have forgotten in that swirl of chaos that Yua had given this Goku a name. She would have tilted her head in confusion, but it wasn't the time for that. The Paladin placed a hand on his shoulder and gave him a smile, "Yuna." It wasn't exactly a lie, Yuna was the human soul that shared her consciousness. Besides, if they ever met in real life, he'd likely meet Yuna as well as a fiery haired woman next to Yua.

It also seemed that his stilted speaking was done for the time being. That, or the shorter sentences carried most of that burden. "Goku, then. Sit back down, it should help calm you." She brought the chair from earlier back over to them and set it down. Those with the Seed had to learn to live with it. This process had simply just started for Goku.

She almost chuckled to herself. She almost wanted to say something like "take two of these and call me in the morning", but that wouldn't do. "Calm your mind, quiet down all those other voices and focus on mine." Yua wasn't someone that gave out physical comfort, but more moral guidance. Besides, she was built as a combat unit.
