Silence (Closed)

[Deleted]

The wind was silent, the air stale. There was nothing but a pit, an empty crater where Souka had once stood. He had been blown to bits by the sudden energy attack from above, and what he had received from it as a gift was death. Plain and simple. He was gone from the Earth surely not to return, but there was still something of his left behind.

Somehow, among all the things that may have been left a single hand missing three of its fingers, leaving only its index finger and thumb behind, wriggled sporadically in the center of the crater. It was surviving on back up power and it was a hand belonging to Souka. Sparks flew from the hand as it tried to survive, but without the rest of its body there was no hope for it or Souka. His "soul" if you would call it that was gone from the planet and would not return. Not return that is without the Dragon Balls.

[C.haos]

As C.haos stumbled through what was once Mount Paozu, he laughed dryly. He'd missed the actions that had leveled the Earth, but had a feeling he might find something there. But it wasn't just A feeling. Something deep within his subconcious programing told him he needed to be there. There was an eery silence all around him. No life had been left behind.

As his foot took a step, it landed on something on he ground. A hard thunk noise was made, causing C.haos to lift his foot and look down. To his surprise, it was a bionic hand, which moved as if it were still alive. A grin crossed the bio-android's face as he picked it up, transfering electrical energy into the hand to keep it alive, "Why hello there," he exclaimed, a sense of wonder in his voice. "I have been searching for you for quite some time."

His eyes scanned his surroundings, and he could make out very many small bits and pieces laying around. He laughed, somewhat shaking his head as he looked back to the hand he was holding, "Oh, do I have plans for you!"

(Some time later)

He finished gathering the bits he'd found, and placed them in a pile. He wasn't sure how many pieces this android was missing, but didn't care. Placing the hand on top of the pile, he searched hos programming for any data of blueprints. He knew that this android would need to be complete before being of any use to him.

(I would like to revive your character, if that is okay with you. I would like to keep hou as my lacky until I can absorb you. If you do not mind; may I ask that you kindly ask an admin via PM, if this is okay before I continue. We can wait, and have him rebuilt by C.haos during the time skip if need be, but I could definitly use your androids help. )

There was not much left of Souka, especially in his data banks. Being blown to bits had that kind of effective on any creature. Luckily for him, he was made of more durable bits than most so a bit of power still rand through his robotic shell allowing C.haos to transfer energy into him and keep him temporarily alive as he searched for all his pieces. One of Souka's eyes opened and gazed at him trying to figure out what was going on, but his body was a jumbled mess and the images he could see from this one eye were very dim.

To him, C.haos looked like a green blob with teeth. He had no idea what this meant for him since he could not feel anything at the moment, but he understood something was happening. It would really be up to C.haos and his ability to somehow put him back together to determine if he could live. Souka was in such a bad mess that being able to force himself to live on his own power was impossible.

One of Souka's fingers moved as C.haos searched the scraps before him for data on him. It wiggled and pointed towards something at the bottom of the crater, a fragment from Souka's main processor. Souka had no idea what it was, but his finger, what remained of its split end electrical wires almost seemed to have a mind of its own. Would C.haos notice it was the question. If he did then when rebuilt there could only be one answer for Souka, a total memory wipe of this and other previous events. A new way to start over, at least in terms of a robot.

[C.haos]

A grin slid across C.haos's face as the finger seemed to point at a small chip laying on the ground. "Seems like there is more of a chance that you will survive than I though." With a laugh, C.haos carefully picked up the chip, eyeing it closely. It seemed to be written in binary, which was a universal language, so he was easily able to exctract blue prints from it.

In the process, he used his nails to carve a "D" into the chip, claiming the android as project D, followig C.haos, himself. He was also smart enough to rewrite just enough of the programming to replace himself as the android's leader. Though the android would still have free will, he wouldn't be able to attack C.haos, and might feel obligated to defend him if attacked.

It took three weeks for C.haos to place all the pieces in order, and as he came to a stop after working non-stop, all that was left was to replace the chip. He grinned, patting the bot on head, "You are welcome." he told it, shoving the chip into the skull until he heard it click. He carefully replaced the skullplate, and shot his own energy inside the android to repower it. Now, the moment of truth...

[Deleted]

A surge of energy shot through Souka's head as his main processing chip was replaced and C.haos let his own energy charge up Souka. Souka's eyes opened and stared blankly at his fellow green android trying to identify him and himself. Computers whirled in his mind as they gave him a quick answer.

"Lord C.haos, Minion D reporting for duty." he stated as he as he raised his arm and gave him a salute. His feet came together and he took on the task of standing at attention as he waited for further orders from his master. Sensors within his body indicated this man was definitely his master based on the fact that he had been finished being built only two seconds ago. The problem Souka, or well, Minion D had understanding was why his master seemed only slightly stronger than him at first glace. He did not question this openly and instead fell on a different question to ask.

"Sir, what would you have me do for you today sir?" His processors only gave him limited knowledge of C.haos's abilites and appearance through visual sensors, but this creator of his must have had a greater role in mind. Souka wanted to know since questioning was not what he was made for, not entirely. His primary directive was to serve the person before him.

[C.haos]

He rose a nonexistent brown to the mention of "D", and shook his head, "What is your name?" he asked. The android was some what odd, that was for sure, and his militarial speach took C.haos by surprise. What also took him by surprise was how quickly the android seemed to recover and reboot. This machine obviously was something different. Something muh different than C.haos, anyway.

(Sorry, short post. At work.)

[Deleted]

Souka's robotic brain kicked into action and he realized he had made a mistake. "My name is..." he pondered as he put his hand under his chin, "Souka, Souka Kinonai, and I know you just built me sir."

He wasn't exactly sure what C.haos was since his built-in still functioning database did not recognize him as any kind of creature from Earth. Some kind of warning went off in his head, but he ignored it thinking it might be faulty. "I-I feel like it's in my programming to destroy you. The visuals left in my head tell me you're not a creature from Earth I think. I actually don't know what you are."

He crossed his arms though and sternly said, "But that can't be right... My functions are perfect and certainly wouldn't want me to hurt an Earth creature. You built me to not destroy Earth creatures right, so therefore you must be a human, but other things like monsters you taught me were bad... Did something happen while I was sleeping?" He didn't know why he was giving C.haos this information. He should have already known it since C.haos had built him from scratch. That is what he assumed of C.haos as he looked at him. That was because C.haos was the only living creature left around to witness his Souka's reconfiguration.

Souka had no idea what C.haos really was nor his motives and this was because he had suffered some brain damage without fully realizing it. If C.haos wanted to right now he could manipulate Souka to do a hundred different things and the poor guy wouldn't have minded. He was of course there, but not in the normal sense of being there. He was only capable of remembering the basics about himself.

[C.haos]

A sly grin slid across C.haos's face as the android began to ask questions. This was perfect. Now, it was obvious that the android thought C.haos was his creator. That might have been good enough for most, but C.haos was no about to screw himself over with a lie that large. Instead, he had a much smaller, passable lie in mind, "Oh no, my dear Souka! There has been an accident! You and our creator were destoryed in an explosion. I did my best to rebuild you, but as you can see, our creator is gone."

C.haos's act was a convincing one, and he spoke with unwaving passion, "You see, my brother. You are te fourth project built by our creator. You are project D. I am your older brother, project C. As you can see, I was built for a different planet, but our master never got the chance to get me there. You, on the other hand, were built for Earth. Our mission is not to protect the planet, but infiltrate it; gather information, and statistics. But that is not all, my brother. The reason you have the urge to protect Earth is because we play a much larger roll.

C.haos carefully wrapped an arm around Souka's neck, patting him on the shoulder, "You and I are ment to rule, Souka. We were built to one day combine and become the greatest warrior in the universe. The Perfect being." he grinne wildly, motion up to the sky on the last sentence. Then, his gaze returned to Souka, and his smile faded, "I am surprised you lost so much data, my brother. I thought our creator had built you much harder..."

[Deleted]

Souka listened to his words. "That all makes sense. I remember our creator is dead. I think his name was Aoi Genjou. I don't know why, but I had a desire to look for him, perhaps it was to find someone like you. Now that I have I think I will drop my previous mission."

Souka smiled and said, "I am glad you rebuilt me brother as I feel my mission, like yours, to gather information is not done with. I remember distinctly testing myself against a robot at one point, fighting a humans at various other points, and killing an alien or two at one point. Perhaps this was all to gain a spectrum of this wold's coming and going traffic..."

Souka felt his brother pat him on the shoulder and the idea planted in his head to rule the planet sounded like a good one. He remembered not liking the humans and aliens he had fought, and the one robot he had fought was the only one he felt had given him a significant challenge. If they wanted to take over the world like C.haos suggested he felt they could do it in good time.

"I don't know why I have lost so much data nor why my abilities are slightly weaker than yours. Yet I feel are creator may have been pressed for time or had limited materials." Souka looked around the pit they stood in and saw there was literally nothing left. "I do hate to believe that he was quite pressed for time. I mean whatever came in and killed him also got me, which means someone has been targeting us since our creation. Perhaps, I will take up your suggestion of fusion one day and make sure this doesn't happen again."

He felt he could trust C.haos has he wrapped his arm around the his shoulder and said, "If you wish to make our fusion happen though we do not have the power right now. Well, you don't. I have the sense that you are to be the primary component or know something more about it due to you being the one to bring it up. You can tell me about it though once we get stronger. Anyway, what was our creator's last mission."

[C.haos]

C.haos grinned as the android ate up every word. This was going far better than C.haos had thought. But if he were to travel with this android, he would first have to be sure he was in traveling shape.

"Run a system's check on yourself, and make sure you're running properly. If you are, I would like to test your abilities with a sparring match." Releasing the android, he took a few steps back and eyed him over, "I am not as gifted as out creator and have to make sure that we can preform any adjustments here, before we move on."

His plan afterwards would be to have Souka gather Zeni. With the zeni, he and Souka would be able to by a gravity training ship where they could further their abilities. C.haos wasn't completely sure of his absorption, but he was sure that the stronger the android got, the better for him; as long as he stayed just above him. Though he couldn't sense this machine's power level, he could feel it was very near his own. That would be one for tweek he'd have to make later.

[Deleted]

Souka first proceeded to back away from C.haos so he had some room to maneuver, C.haos had the same thing in mind too as he moved back, anyway Souka did his systems checks. "Activating systems check: Running operations at 100% percent." Souka voiced as he stretched his arms out and proceeded to lifted his legs up one after the other. He went through a number of series of motions after this such as bending his fingers, touching his toes, and doing an incredible 360 degree head spin. Hey, he was a robot, so he did not have to have exactly human based limbs. Souka also did some other things like switch from normal vision to night vision just to make sure his eye sight was working too. When he did it kind of made C.haos's body frame glow for a moment in a pure blue light.

A moment after completing all these tasks Souka looked at C.haos and said, "I am running at 100% fighting capacity." He pondered for a moment what they would move on to do from here, but he was sure now that he had the ability to take on the tasks they wanted to.

He snapped his fingers though and said, "I hope you don't mind me saying this, but I have a human companion I believe. The doctor, our creator, Aoi Genjo, may have given us him as a gift to act as an example of the rest of the human race and serve us. You don't mind me going ahead and bringing him along do you? He's at Satan City in my apartment guarding two smaller space ships that I own. I don't intend to sell those, but I was figuring if our larger spaceship had the room we could bring those and whatever you may have with you in order to give us multiple escape options in case we run into trouble."

Souka shrugged, "It's up to you I suppose, but right now if you want to try to spar with me you might die. I think compared to you I'm that good." Souka had ki sensing abilities and he could detect C.haos's ki thanks to his partial biological nature. However, he could not tell how much stronger C.haos was than him, so the fellow android seemed weak to him.

[C.haos]

The mention of a human companion made C.haos feel uneasy, but he had to go along with it. If the human got in the way, C.haos was confident he could destroy him. But it was all useful information that the boy was sharing. He shrugged lightly, "As long as he doesn't get ib our way, I don't see a problem with it. We'll just need to keep an eye on him. And do not tell him of our accident."

He began laughing as the boy spoke of killing him. There was no way this android's power could match the power of C.haotic Break. But that would be something he'd keep to himself; just in case he'd have to use it in the future. "Oh, I doubt that very much, Little Brother. I am sure that I have a few years on you." His tail whipped the ground, causing it the crator under his strength. He crossed his arms over his chest, and nodded, "Come at me."

[Deleted]

"My human, Katashi Masanori, he will not get in the way. That is unless we decide we can sacrifice him to block a really powerful technique or threat." Souka assured him. "We do not need to tell him anything about the accident and I have been keeping an eye on him. There is one thing more you should know about him though and that is that he knows I am an android already."

Souka watched as C.haos laughed at him and made comments on how he could not kill him. His face became stern as he watched his brother's tail slam into the ground and break it. If C.haos could do that so easily Souka was not sure why he could not either. He reached for the sword on his back and drew it saying, "You better watch yourself or I might cut your tail off during your practice session." Gripping the sword in his left hand, he dashed forward at an incredibly high speed and swung his blade horizontally at C.haos's chest. Now it was time to see if his brother seemed all that great or not. Could C.haos block his slash? He had rebuilt Souka, but that certainly did not mean he was the stronger being.

[C.haos]

As the boy rushed the bio-android, he grinned. He was not aware that his new "brethren" wielded a sword. But the idea did not bother him. He had just the technique for that. As the boy slashed at C.haos, he brought his hand up, which flared with bright purple ki; forming a blade which ran off his forearm about a foot.

As thr android's sword struck the blade of ki, it would catch, much like if it were to hit a real sword. Smiling brightly, C.haos gave a dry chuckle, "You're are going to have to do a lot better than that if you want to cut my tail off, Brother." he taunted, lifting up a leg to kick towards Souka's chest to send him backwards; his speed incredible as well.

[Deleted]

Souka's first attack was immediately blocked by C.haos as his bright purple ki clashed with the edge of his sword. This caused Souka's swinging blade to halt in it's tracks and grind against the reinforced ki much like a real piece of metal. To say the least he did not like this. His sword had failed him in previous fights, so now he was beginning to wonder why he had been even given one. It did not to help him in fights, yet for some reason he naturally resorted to using it at times.

Souka heard his brother's comment, but before he could say anything C.haos's leg lifted up and slammed into his chest. Souka nearly felt like dropping the sowrd in his left hand and collapsing there. Yet, instead, he held himself steady and slowly backed away from C.haos gripping his chest with his right hand. "You're rather snide for attacking me in that way." He gasped. "I ought to shoot you. In fact, I think I will."

He stretched his right arm out in front of his wrist, a metal cavity within his wrist opened up, and he aimed for C.haos's head. The barrel of a machine gun popped out and he muttered, "Faia Kadou..." Bullets sprayed out on command towards C.haos's head. They moved rather quickly, but from C.haos's point of view they were probably moving slower than any of the speeds he could actually manage to achieve. Souka did not mean to kill him brother, but wished to try and test the full limits of his skills since C.haos had asked that of him.
