The Waiting Game (FINISHED)

[ammy]

Amaranth was well aware of the girl following her, though she simply choose not to acknowledge it. The boy had barely answered when she slid by the two. Amaranth could only sigh and shake her head. This girl was going to get herself killed one day, that was plain to see.

"My name is Amaranth," was all she said as an answered, flicking her tail in annoyance. As the bird spoke, she raised a brow. Well, that's certainly different. But, it seems that raven is all kinds of different. Amaranth couldn't help but roll her eyes at his long introduction. It seemed Earthlings had a love of over-sharing and speaking nonsense. Why her uncle chose to take residence on this planet was beyond her. She sheathed her daggers, brushing some of her now-dry flaxen hair from her eyes. As always, it was starting to curl. She had never understood why her mother loved that so much, she always believed straight hair was easier to deal with.

"Sorry to burst your bubble, but I don't care who you are, who your father is, what your bloodline is, or who the rest of your family are. And as far as your sword goes, a blade that hasn't tasted blood is little less than decoration," she said, echoing her father's words from long ago. She did gain more interest as he spoke of the bio-android, whatever the hell that was. His next words though lost all patience he had gained with her. Amaranth's tail snapped in frustration as she walked over to him, grabbing his arm.

"Don't give me that line. I'm not some damsel that needs a 'big strong man to save her', kid," she said. Amaranth's once blue eyes had turned a deep, dark blood red. She turned to the girl once more.

"It's your choice on what you do," she said, addressing her, "Either come help or run. But if you do come, don't expect me to help you."

With that, Amaranth pulled out two of her knives and walked back into the storm. And just when I was finally dry. The rain was coming down as hard as ever, soaking her in seconds. She gazed over the landscape before noticing a purple glow coming from near by. Lightning flashed, illuminating the creature for a moment. Amaranth couldn't help but grin and her tail almost wagged in delight. It was wonderful when an enemy presented ts self just as she was in the mood to ht something. Rising up a bit into the sky, she turned her gaze to the other two, grinning, her red eyes slightly glowing.

"Let's get this party started, shall we?"

[xeondarkness95]

Draxor listened to her, but didn't like anything she said. " My father spilled blood on this Blade. Me, I have now a reason to." He said, looking at her with a cold stare. however she lost her Patience and ran out into the storm. Draxor ran after her, regretting trying to help her. when she spotted the android, Draxor said, " I'll help but from what I've heard, Bio androids are trick to defeat." He drew the sword and began charge. Suddenly, he was surrounded by a Red and Black Aura, and sheathing the sword again shouted, "Phoenix Blast!" a Phoenix shaped energy blast shot from his palms at the Android. then drew the blade again, and started to slice the air. "Android, prepare to fight." he said, his voice cold as ice. For his rage was building and when angered enough, the android would be nothing but dust.

Syrus flew in the air next to Amaranth, "we should be geting away from him." he said, letting out a sigh. "Draxor meant you no offence when he spoke. He just rather not see anyone die." as he finished, he transformed into a warrior form. "I don't like this one bit, but if Draxor is in danger I have to help." he said, now standing in human form.

[aka]

Hands still wrapped around her face in embarrassment. Mesa had taken a deep breath before exhaling. She was debating with herself if it was a good time to lift her head up or not. She figured if she waited to the perfect time to do so no one would stare at her and she would feel like less of an idiot. Today was not going her way, everything that can go wrong would go wrong, well at least that is how she felt at that moment in time. Again she took a deep breath this time removing her palms from her sun kissed skin. Mesa had over heard everything that was said before, but the last thing she hard Amaranth say caught her attention. "It's My Choice?" Her voice was low to the point that only a person with exceptional hear could have picked it up. "Help or Run?" she was thrown for a loop at that moment, what was really going on here, Mesa had zero skills in hand to hand combat and her ability to since a person was nothing compared to that of the two whom stood in this area.

Mesa watched a Amaranth pulled out her knifes, one of which he had reached for earlier. What whats going on she thought to herself as she looked over at Draxor who now along with Amaranth had ran back out into the rain. "What is going on?" she asked but with no reply the two were gone now, both had returned to the outside down pour of rain. Hesitant; Mesa didn't want to go back out into the rain for no reason she just stood their for a moment looking on at the two who had stopped only 25 feet or so from her location. "Darn it, what ever!" she said as she ran out after them wonder what would happen next.

[C.haos]

C.haos grinned as he watched a small group of people rush out of a building. Two of them had fairly high power levels, compared to the others on this planet. The third's power level was lower than the two, but still much higher than a normal humans'.

The male shot a blast towards C.haos, obviously hoping to take him off guard. But with a quick twist of his body, C.haos was able to avoid it, "Now, now, now..." He warned him, shaking a finger as he slowly drift back to the ground.

As his feet gently tapped the ground, his tail wagging behind him, he smiled, "So good to see that this planet is good for something more than food. I was beginning to get worried." He slowly looked over the three and shook his head, "But your group is quiet sad looking... I hope that the three of you are not the strongest on this planet."

[ammy]

The wind was strong, picking up Amaranth's wet locks and waving them behind her. The rain pelted down, covering the ground in mud and slippy stone. Lightning flashed close by followed by thunder hat resonated n the girl's bones. This was not the ideal moment, or place for a fight. The inn in which the little group had emerged was mostly torn down and looked as f it would crumble with the lightest of touches. The building around them weren't much better and what was left of the cement street on which they stood was cracked and jagged. No, Amaranth truthfully did not enjoy this place one bit. Everyone was at a disadvantage here, there was no advantage to be gained from this location. So still she hovered ever so slightly in the air, keeping off the ground. She could fight in the air and this thing obviously could fly. If she could somehow lure it away from these buildings into a better area, she might have the advantage. But with those two (one eager for a fight) she doubted that would happen.

She watched as the boy called out before firing off an attack. Any hope of a sneak attack was rendered useless as the being dodged it easy, laughing at them. She listened to the raven, curious once more as he turned into a human.

"Well, death is inevitable. You can't save everyone, especially those who don't wish to be saved," she answered quietly as the alien floated down to the ground, much closer. He truly was a robot of sorts. She watched the rain slide off of him with almost soundless metallic clinks. As he spoke, she rolled her eyes. This is the part where the enemy droned on and on. She had heard it many times. Amaranth sheathed her daggers, for she could tell they'd be no use to her here. She had to admit, he was right. Their little group wasn't exactly formidable. She could even see that the girl from earlier had stayed to help. Amaranth could help but grin a bit. They girl had guts, that was good. She'd need them.

[xeondarkness95]

Draxor unwrapped his tail, now angry from the Android mocking him. "human! I'm no human!" Draxor shouted, sheathing the sword. even in anger, he knew that he had to get the android away from the City. "But how about we settle this somewhere a little less populated, better to have a battle field where your 'food' doesn't die in the process." he said, the angered look on his face didn't change. but he also was trying to figure out how he would keep up, he couldn't fly.

Syrus, knowing Draxor, stood there surprized he kept his temper for that long. "Looks like Draxor is trying to convince him to fight in a better location." Syrus said, Amaranth saying something. "well, your an assasin right? if Draxor is doing what i think he's doing, he'll lead him somplace where we all have the advantage. however, the Android will most likely want to stay." he said grimmly

[aka]

Finally meeting up with the group after being left behind she stopped only feet behind everyone. Looking up in to the dark night like sky her eye met A evil looking soul. Unable to full comprehend the situation She just stood their looking at the new creature that she had thought to be an alien as well.

She had no idea aliens could fly, well at least this one could fly. She thought to herself could everyone in this group fly but her. Full of mixed emotions she had hoped the could so that they could stand at chance against this possible new threat. Yet she wished the could not fly because then she would be the only person stuck on the ground leaving her alone and seemly helpless.

Mesa placed both her hands together as if she was about to pray her eyes narrowed as she looked on at the Android she thought to be an alien which rested in front of the group, With a quiet yet strong voice she spoke. "If you have a plan, now is the time to make it know! I can only help so much if i don't know what is happening." with those word she walked up tot he group stopping just beside Draxor.

[C.haos]

As the sayain boy unravled his tail from his body, C.haos smirked, "well, well, well... We have a sayain in our presence, do we?" Being part saiyan, C.haos knew too well what they were capable of. He also knew most of their weaknesses. Like their monkey tail. He glanced to the pink-haired girl, then to the blond, as the boy spoke about moving the fight somewhere else.

"Do you think I am that daft?" He asked, spitting in his direction, "Pssssh. Here, I have the advantage. You four cannot kill your own kind." His evil, fang baring, grin returned as his tail smashed into the ground. "Now then. Who cares to die first? Will it be the sayain? Perhaps the pink-haired girl?" He looked to Amaranth last, eying her the longest before speaking again, "We will save you for last, seeing as you will be the biggest challenge."

As thunder roared, and lightning struck, C.haos. couldn't help but feel eager for a battle. He hadn't been able to try out his new body, and naturally was itching to play like a child with a brand new toy. After feeding on the five human, he was fully prepared for battle. After all, without some experience uunder his belt, how would he be able to achieve his goal of perfection?

[ammy]

Amaranth listened to Draxtor speak, watching him slightly. He seemed to be getting quite worked up about this. She frowned slightly. In her experience, getting worked up this early wasn't usually good. It often made people sloppy, unfocused. But, who knew. Maybe it worked for that boy. She shook her head as the raven spoke.

"I'm no assassin," was all she said, too focused on the scene before her. As the thing spoke, she rolled her eyes, drifting down to sit on a mostly crumbled wall a couple feet up. She yawned and brushed her wet bangs from her eyes.

"You all enjoy talking, don't you?" she asked, speaking up. Her blue eyes met the androids.

"You're wrong on that. These people aren't my kind and truthfully, go ahead and kill them. The boy and his pet are getting on my nerves, actually. You'd be doing me a big favor," she started, shrugging nonchalantly.

"Go ahead and have your go with them. I'll be waiting right here when you're done," she said, smirking, "But, you'd have to stop talking and actually start doing something for that to happen."

Amaranth watched those before her. The pink haired girl wasn't very strong, she could see that. The boy wasn't too terribly strong either. She doubted that any fight would last too terribly strong. And while it was true that the boy and his pet annoyed her, she truthfully didn't want them killed. Okay....like, 95% sure she didn't want them killed. This would be an ideal opportunity to study the android's powers and moves.

[xeondarkness95]

"well, for an alien I thought you would have paitance." Draxor Gave her another cold glare. "Fine, Syrus Get away from here." He said in Anger. the raven stood in his human form, "No, i will not leave you alone. we still need to find your sister." retorted the raven. but Draxor wouldn't budge, and the raven transformed and flew off. then the Saiyan hybrid turned to the android. "If i have to, I'll Keep fighting till I'm dead." he said, drewing his sword on last time. "Umbra Sun, guide my hands to slay this monster." He charged slashing, hoping to land a blow. he vowed he would find his sister and kill their parents murderer. "I'm sorry sister, but i may have to break my vow." he said to himself.

[aka]

Mesa was not sure as to why the monkey tailed boy was getting so mad about what the wired looking tailed alien beast said. Was it really that frustration to be consider a human. Was it the fact the humans did not have tails that made these aliens hate the humans so much. Monumentally Mesa fell in to a state of depression. She felt as though she was nothing to these people. Her breaths started to become deeper as her eyes that were once on the enemy that stood in front of then had now leveled out on the cold wet ground.

An Assassin? Mesa thought to herself after hearing Amaranth reply to what was said earlier. Why would she be an Assassin? Was she sent here to kill my order self and instead found me? Could it be my fault that we are all in the situation right now? Mesa could not help but to feel guilty now. Mesa's eye then focused toward where Amaranth rested, Why was she so calm right now, could it be that she had been used to situation like this? maybe she was some kind of Assassin and lied about it. Mesa Eye narrowed as she started to evaluate her action up to that moment.

Still unsure she listed as she again stated to talk, starting up a small speech. Mesa Eyes widened as she spoke, she wanted us dead. She didn't not care what happen to use. This was nothing more than a game to her. We were mere pieces on a game board and she had played all the right moves. Oh how Mesa felt bad for Draxor, she had got him into this and if they didn't think fast enough with a continuous string of the correct assessments the would most likely end up dead.


A favor she says, Mesa now looked at her as a serious threat, even more so that this new guy that had hit a sore spot on Draxor. Mesa was so mad now that she had met this one that seemed so friendly, the first real alien she had meet was her and she had been sent to fill her, and only her. Mesa had to find some way to get Zraxor from here.



No, We should work together Mesa said as the boy ran off to attack on his own . Mesa wanted to be the one taking the blame for all of this. How could someone let a person die who had nothing to do with his. Mesa asked herself that as she looking into the eye of the android.

[C.haos]

C.haos grinned as the blond spoke. She told him that she didn't care about the humans. She also stated that he'd be doing her a favor by killing them. This made C.haos let out a dry chuckle, "I like you," he told her, "and I will enjoy making you part of me. But first..."

His eyes stopped on the saiyan boy, who was shouting something about dying. C.haos watched as he pulled out a sword, and shook his head, "It will take more than sword to defeat me, boy." As the boy charged him, slashing wildly, C.haos began to wonder if the boy had any experience at all. This wasn't just a dumb move, it was a naive mistake.

As the boy neared him, C.haos jumped back, giving himself just enough room to make his move. From his right hand, shot a blade of energy, dark purple in color, "If it is a sword fight you want, boy," he told him, bringing the blade of ki up near his face, "thats what you'll get."

As the boy slashed again, C.haos brought his own blade down, to clash with the boy's weapon. Even though it was made from Ki, the blade would act much like a real sword. And C.haos would be just as deadly as if he was wilding a true blade. And even though he had little experience with this body, he was able to do much naturally, his body working automatically for him. There was no doubt in his mind that he would win, however, that might be his biggest flaw.

[ammy]

Become a part of him? Amaranth's nose wrinkled in disgusted. That just sounded wron, and creepy. Really creepy. She just ignored Draxtor's comments, yawning. He was so overdramatic. Amaranth sighed, watching the battle play out before her. She watched Draxor rush in, him and his pet yelling something about his sister. Over dramatic seemed to be their thing. Her eyes breifly went to the pink haired girl near her. She turned her eyes back to the battle at hand.

"I wouldn't suggest running into that. Not unless you have a death wise at least," she advised. Though the boy annoyed her greatly, the girl was a just a possible casualty. Amaranth had seen too many innocents caught in the cross fires of war to let it happen to this young girl. She truthfully didn't want them dead. She wouldn't mind Draxor being beaten up a bit, but she'd stop him from dying.

Sorry it's short. >< a bit of lose of muse at the moment

[xeondarkness95]

"well well, someone has tricks up their sleeve." Said Draxor, Parrying and slicing at his foe. The creature only seemed amused, this ticked Draxor off. He tried a helm breaker move, but he missed and the blade actually cut him instead. Draxor landed and fell to one knee as he looked at the wound. Now he was mad, Draxor couldn't fly, couldn't summon huge amounts of power. He felt useless, Draxor got up, " You are a beast like none i've ever faced, My blade skills my be Novice but I can't die today. My sister is alone out there, I have no idea whether she's alive or dead. but I know this, Who ever you are, I will not win by sword," he said sheathing his sword, " Take this, X Energy Destruction!" he shot the energy from his body Hoping to at least knock the android back, and it harmlessly passed through Amaranth and the girl. he fell to a knee again, his leg hurt more than it had, "Katana, where ever you are, stay safe, Kill our parents murderer and never forget I am here." he said to himself. even on his angered face a tear surfaced on his face, he had hoped to have been more prepared for this kind of thing. "Hopefully you will die android." he brought out his sword. waiting to see what the android would do.

[aka]

Mesa's heart started to race, not from fear but excitement. She had not see action like this before the ability that these aliens have were amazing. Everything thing they did was like watching a action film. Draxor seemed like the actor in the film that tends to try to hard to make the role his own, when in fact the role was already created for the actor himself. Mesa taking all attention off of Amaranth who she saw as nothing more that a two faced lair, she didn't want to have anything to do with a person of that caliber. Her political career would end even before it started.

Without out as much as a word she started to walk forward heading toward the fight that was in progress. Her steps were fluent clean and crisp like. Her walk gave off an feeling that anyone who watched would think that she was someone important. Mesa blue eye focused on Draxor as he started to swing is sword wildly. What was wrong with him she thought why would he wield a weapon he can not use properly. Her eyes danced as the energy blade connect to the real blade. Sparks started to fly every which way like a small unimpressive show of fireworks.

Still at a decent distance away from Draxor she watched him fall to his knees, she swallowed deeply as her following blink was extended by a second or two. The foolish boy then started to speak again as he placed his sword back into his sheath. At the moment Mesa was about fifteen feet away from him. A dome like shape left his body and stopped on inches in front of her face when she stood about 11 feet out from him. Not even as much as a twitch she continued to walk towards Draxor.


As she arrived next to him she bend down resting on her right knee as she started to speak about someone named Katana. This made her clear her throat a little. Not so much as to let him know of her presents or to stop him from talking but that she felt bad for him. She had lost her parents too only a year or so ago. It hurt bad just thinking about it. She quickly pushed that thought out of her mind and help left the boy named Draxor up to his feet.


If you want to show this guy your true power then listen to me, I have a plan that just might allow you to live to see tomorrow or even what is left of you're family. Mesa then leaned in and started to whisper into Draxor ear for a brief moment. She mad sure to say it just loud enough so that Amaranth and her amazing ears could not hear it. Mesa did not know the extent of her hearing but she had thought about it over time an realized that her hearing was better than most. Why else would she have jumped when they had met. She heard something that Mesa never noticed. After Mesa finished talking she pushed Draxor place both of her little teenage hand into his chest. "GO GET OUT OF HERE!" Mesa then walked up to the android stopping mere feet in front of him. "Sir I'm Must ask that you leave that dear soul alone. If you must release your jolly please to this with a chat with me for a moment."
