Pulitu Village (Namek Saga, Semi Open)

[Deleted]

Basna was standing by and hidden when this message reached his ears. He was busy looking over the village in secrecy before he realized it wasn’t completely unprotected after-all. There was a namekian here; though, as familiar as he seemed, Basna couldn’t identify him. His irises were pink and his skin sustained blotch marks all over. It was certainly a dreadful looking thing and the power emitting from him had a discreet ominous taste to it. But even then it felt so familiar…

He clenched his teeth. “I’ve gotta go see what’s happening…” he murmured. And turned away to check out what the whole commotion was about; entrusting Pulitu Village to the people here. His aura wasn’t really being hidden, so they would probably notice him charging away after just recently arriving.

(Cargo, PM me about that fight you wanted to have? xP)

[Kirei]

Zarenia awakens feeling a bit different as Cargo shook her violently. She looks over to Cargo who looked completely different from before. He seemed to notice the same thing she noticed, and he seemed to feel the same way she was beginning to feel now. She looked down at her hands only to find that the blotches had spread and her skin was pale. She cared not and it seemed to be normal to her.

"Cargo, we are changed. However, I feel that this change... is good change. You don't have to tell me. I just now what your going to say somehow. Your thinking we should leave, as am I.[/color]

Zarenia stands readying to leave but she noticed a warrior off into the distance. She grins as her fangs edge out from behind her top lip. She had just found some fun. She takes flight looking back at Cargo. She sees him fly off in the other direction, and can't help but follow. She would recognize that face... she never... forgets a face.

(leaving thread, pl please)

[Shin Buriketsai]

Cargo was leading Zarenia out of the village. Yes he felt changed, but he wasn't completely changed as was his friend Zarenia. Cargo smoothly allowed Zarenia to lead the way and he dipped back into Pulitu unnoticed by Zarenia. He couldn't explain it, but he felt like if he left the village he would miss out on something.

It was as if a greater purpose was making him gravitate towards Pulitu. The pull was even more powerful than the infection that was basically done growing inside him. Cargo landed on the ground staring into the sky waiting for something to happen. He didn't know what, but he couldn't help but feel that he was needed for something big.

"I know that I'm changed. I can feel it running through my body like the very blood in my veins. Though I know that there is something bigger I am needed for. I will take that knowledge and use that to fight this infection with all my might. Whatever I am suppose to be apart of. I hope it gets here soon, otherwise I don't think I will be able to meet my calling.[/i]

Cargo continues to stare into the green sky waiting for whatever he was meant to be apart of to arrive. He could only hope it was soon, as his will power would eventually cave.

[Orenji]

Orenji was flying through the Namek plains, making his way back to Pulitu village. He was hoping that Cargo and Zarenia were still alive. It had been several hours since he left the village and came in contact with the invaders. Orenji knew he had to reach the village fast, that female could have just reappeared over in Pulitu village.

”Cargo please be alive, we are going to need you in order to stop them.”

Several minutes later Orenji finally landed in pulitu village, he began searching through the village looking for cargo. Seconds later he found Cargo starring up at the sky, but there was something different about him. His skin was different, Orenji didn’t know why, but something had to have happened to him while he was gone.

”Cargo are you alright? You look different; did anybody land here and try to destroy the village? As far as I can tell nothing has happened here so far and that is a relief.”

Orenji made his way over to Carnel, and something defiantly happened to Cargo while he was gone. Orenji was going to find out what was going on here, Cargo looked different and maybe this was the work of the ”Lady” that female mentioned ealier.

”Cargo you need to tell me everything that has happened since I left. What happened to your skin? Are you feeling alright?”

[Deleted]

”Cargo are you alright? You look different; did anybody land here and try to destroy the village? As far as I can tell nothing has happened here so far and that is a relief.”

Words traveled to Cargo's ears and he knew that voice as one of his brothers. However, Orenji was not completely his brother... not anymore. Cargo simply ignores his words and stares back at Orenji. Cargo wanted to speak, but holding back the progression of the infection with his will and ki was not an easy feat. No doubt his brother noticed what was wrong with him. It was more than obvious that Cargo was not himself.

"Cargo you need to tell me everything that has happened since I left. What happened to your skin? Are you alright?"

Again Orenji wanted to know if Cargo was alright and if anything had happened in his absence. Sweat began to form all over Cargo's body. His breathing became as heavy as a diesel engine. He didn't know how much time he had, but he was starting to feel what was needed as he stared at his battered brother. Even though the infection had taken over most of him, he still had the urge to help his brother.

"This village has been very peaceful, but much has happened since you left. I am not the Cargo you met at the tower, at least not completely. I was bitten by an individual and I was injected with some kind of venom.[/color] Cargo drops down to one knee, and struggles to maintain his breath. "Bro...Brother, I cannot slave of what is growing inside me for long. That bite is the sole reason I am the way I am right now, but don't worry about me. My suffering will soon end, I know it and I feel it. I must know though, why are you so beaten. I do not like you as you are now.[/color]

Cargo forced himself to stand on his own to feet. The sweat continued to drip from his face as he used his all he had to slave off complete reforming into the infection. It was still shocking how he was able to gain control over the infection anyway after it had taken him the first time, but that's why you never underestimate a namekian. He would fight his urge to bite as long as he could.

[Orenji]

Orenji stood across from Cargo waiting for a response from him about what has gone on. It seemed Cargo was ignoring Orenji at first, he noticed him sweating. Something was wrong, Orenji needed to find out before things got worse.

"This village has been very peaceful, but much has happened since you left. I am not the Cargo you met at the tower, at least not completely. I was bitten by an individual and I was injected with some kind of venom.”

” What does he mean he’s not the same Cargo. The only thing that looks different is his skin. Where was he when he got injected with this venom. Maybe I can heal it from him, and help him. Cargo is clearly in pain.”

"Bro...Brother, I cannot slave of what is growing inside me for long. That bite is the sole reason I am the way I am right now, but don't worry about me. My suffering will soon end, I know it and I feel it. I must know though, why are you so beaten. I do not like you as you are now.”

”Invaders attacked Yemall village, a female and a male. We were able to make the female retreat for the time being. The male is outside the city fighting Caius. We are all going to need to keep on alert from now on, they have attacked first. We were all beaten pretty badly but we were able to hold them off for now. About this venom that you were infected with, can it be healed out of you? I will try to help as best as I can, you seem to be in a lot of pain.”

Orenji looked around the village, wondering where Cargo’s companion was. He didn’t get her name before, but it looks like she is gone, or hiding in the village. He walked up to Cargo and looked him over. There was pinkening of eye whites only, and dark markings around the eyes, the patches on their arms, abdomen, etc. become faded and yellow rather than the usual pink. Whatever it was that was running inside was changing him.

”Cargo whatever it is that happened to you, I am going to help you beat it. We are going to get you looking back to normal in no time.”

”Invaders attacked Yemall village, a female and a male. We were able to make the female retreat for the time being. The male is outside the city fighting Caius. We are all going to need to keep on alert from now on, they have attacked first. We were all beaten pretty badly but we were able to hold them off for now. About this venom that you were infected with, can it be healed out of you? I will try to help as best as I can, you seem to be in a lot of pain.”

"You were...attacked? Well, I'm glad that you all are ok. Healed out? Brother, I fear that only death can be my healer. A rebirth of life can only be my healer. I wish it was something that could be ripped or healed out of me, but it isn't. I can't hold this inside me much longer.[/color]

Cargo struggles to fight the urge to attack Orenji and bite him. Cargo notices Orenji looking around before he approached him. Orenji finally got an up close and personal look of what was happening to Cargo. No one could help him by conventional means. Cargo felt he would have to be killed in order to truly be free.

”Cargo whatever it is that happened to you, I am going to help you beat it. We are going to get you looking back to normal in no time.”

I wish you could help me beat it, but unless you give me death I see no way to beat this.[/color] Cargo drops down to all fours with sweat dripping form every pore on his body. There was no way he could resist the urge to bite his brother much longer and Cargo knew this. "Brother please, leave me. For I fear that without the rebirth of life and my will failing me, I will attack you. I do not want to do that to you. Please, just leave me here with my infection so I can cease to resist this.[/color]

Cargo's entire body begins to tremble and shake. His sharp fang like teeth had now become much more sharper. That could only be a sign of worse things to come. If Orenji didn't kill Cargo or leave, then he would have to fight Cargo after already going through a draining battle.

[Orenji]

” You were...attacked? Well, I'm glad that you all are ok. Healed out? Brother, I fear that only death can be my healer. A rebirth of life can only be my healer. I wish it was something that could be ripped or healed out of me, but it isn't. I can't hold this inside me much longer.”

”What do you mean only death can be your healer, if you are infected with something it should be able to be healed. I am not going to be the one to take your life Cargo, we are going to find a way to get this out of you.”

Orenji was still looking over Cargo trying to figure out what was going on inside of him. What type of infection changed how Cargo looked. He could notice it was taking a toll of Cargo, maybe he was trying to fight it. He wanted to try and use his healing to help him, but Cargo said it was useless.

” I wish you could help me beat it, but unless you give me death I see no way to beat this.”

”Cargo I am not going to kill you, there has to be another way to sure you.”

Orenji watched as Cargo dropped down to all fours, sweat began to drip from his body. Orenji wanted to go over and help him, but whatever this was it was killing Cargo. Orenji didn’t know what to do, on one his Namekian Brothers was in pain right in front of him, and there was nothing he could do about it.

” "Brother please, leave me. For I fear that without the rebirth of life and my will failing me, I will attack you. I do not want to do that to you. Please, just leave me here with my infection so I can cease to resist this.”

”Cargo I am not going anywhere, you can attack me all you want I will not leave. I am going to find a way to help you, we are going to get through this, one way or another. Cargo you listen to me nothing you say or do is going to make me run away.”

Orenji watched as Cargo’s body began to shake, something was happening to him. Orenji activated a barrier around him, in case there was an attack. He wasn’t going to leave his Brother suffer alone. No matter what happened to Cargo, Orenji was going to be right by his side.

[Deleted]

”Cargo I am not going anywhere, you can attack me all you want I will not leave. I am going to find a way to help you, we are going to get through this, one way or another. Cargo you listen to me nothing you say or do is going to make me run away.”

Orenji's words ran through Cargo's ears and into his heart. Orenji was refusing to leave not knowing what could possibly happen in this situation. It was foolish of him to stay, but it was more than obvious that there was no changing Orenji's mind.

Tears began to fall down Cargo's face. He knew what was about to happen now. He was going to attack his brother. He could no longer hold it back. The struggle in his mind had greatly weakened him and his tears continued to pour. He could only feel a slight happiness that was tainted by the pain of what was going to happen. "Brother, please forgive me.[/color]

Cargo closed his eyes in acceptance of his situation. Cargo's tears were gone and sweat no longer dripped from his body. His breathing became normal and he no longer struggled for breath. Cargo's eyes shot open and he looks up at Orenji. He slowly stood up while keeping his sights on his brother. A purple hazy aura resonated from Cargo's body. The ground began to tremble as pebbles began to rise from to ground. His power was rising to heights no one knew he could reach. Cargo reached his limit with ease as his aura flared out causing a strong gust of wind.

"I tried to warn you once-brother. I am no longer you and you are no longer me, but you can join me. Take part in the enhancement of life and power as you know it. I extend my hand to you once-brother, but you will join me with your own free will or by force."[/color]

Cargo watched his brother carefully. He knew what he was doing, but a part of him wanted to stop. No matter how much though, he couldn't stop. It was as if something beckoned him to give Orenji the "enhancement". All there was left to do now was to bring his brother over to his side.

[Orenji]

Orenji looked down at Cargo, waiting for him to get up and for this to all be over. He was going to need Cargo if they were going to defeat the invaders and save Namek. He still had no idea what was going on inside Cargo’s body, but it began to bring Pain to Orenji to see him this way. Cargo looked up at Orenji, Orenji noticed tears beginning to run down his face.

”Brother, please forgive me.”

”Cargo whatever it is that is inside of you, we will get through it. I promise.”

Orenji watched as Cargo closed his eyes, it appeared he was giving up fighting whatever it was, accepting his fate. Seconds later Cargo’s eyes shot open, his head slowly lifting up looking at Orenji. He watched as Cargo slowly rose from the ground, standing back up. Their eyes never left each other, Cargo was changed. The ground began to shake; small pebbles began to lift off the ground, Cargo’s power level spiked. Easily noticing the difference in power that was between them now, Orenji quickly doubled in size going into Great Namek. Cargo’s aura began to whip around him; a strong gust of wind blew through the town.

"I tried to warn you once-brother. I am no longer you and you are no longer me, but you can join me. Take part in the enhancement of life and power as you know it. I extend my hand to you once-brother, but you will join me with your own free will or by force."

”What do you mean enhancement Cargo? What the hell happened to you, to make you look this way? I don’t know what this power is, but it can’t be good. Cargo something is wrong with you, you need to get help. This doesn’t have to escalate to violence, I don’t want to fight you. You are my Namekian Brother, and I am not going to do combat with you. There are greater threats that are upon us now.”

Orenji was trying to reach Cargo, to make him see that there was something wrong with him. This didn’t need to get violent, and Orenji was going to see that it didn’t. Whatever happened to Cargo in the past has seriously affected him now. He is almost a completely different person, from when Orenji saw him in Ancient City. Something was defiantly wrong here, and Orenji was going to find out. He was going to help his brother get through this.

”So to answer your question, I am not going to take whatever enhancement you have. I am going to help you Cargo, I promise.”

[Deleted]

”What do you mean enhancement Cargo? What the hell happened to you, to make you look this way? I don’t know what this power is, but it can’t be good. Cargo something is wrong with you, you need to get help. This doesn’t have to escalate to violence, I don’t want to fight you. You are my Namekian Brother, and I am not going to do combat with you. There are greater threats that are upon us now. ”So to answer your question, I am not going to take whatever enhancement you have. I am going to help you Cargo, I promise.”

"Help me? Who says I need help? You are the one that needs help. You need to be freed of the weirdness that travels with you. If you join me you will have a power that no one on namek can contend with, but you have given your answer. I guess it's only one thing left to do now."[/color]

Cargo was prepared for battle and he was determined to force his brother to join him. Cargo put space between his feet to stood firm. His eyes laid firm on Orenji as if trying to pierce a hole in him. With a warriors yell, Cargo launched at Orenji with a high knee. If the knee connected he was going to try and follow it with a downward elbow to the top of Orenji's head. This battle had just started, but Cargo was aiming to end it quickly.

[Orenji]

"Help me? Who says I need help? You are the one that needs help. You need to be freed of the weirdness that travels with you. If you join me you will have a power that no one on namek can contend with, but you have given your answer. I guess it's only one thing left to do now."

”I need help. What could I possibly need help with? He isn’t making any sense, what happened to him. What does he mean a power that no one on Namek can contend with? Whatever this power is it looks like it changed you for the worse.”[/i]

Orenji was still starring at Cargo, still hoping that this wasn’t going to escalate into violence. Orenji began to take his weights off, letting his power reach max. He looked back up to see cargo charging at him. Cargo threw a high knee at Orenji, but it was blocked, Cargo then threw a downward elbow at Orenji’s head, it was successful. Orenji stumbled back shacking off the pain from the attack.

”Cargo it doesn't have to go this way! There is no reason for us to fight; there is a greater threat here. We need to all stick together if we are going to be able to defeat it.”

Orenji dropped back into a defensive stance, he wasn't going to attack his brother, and there was no reason for it. He was going to try to make Cargo listen to him, one way or another. He was going to have to think fast, he didn’t know how long he could stay on the defensive, eventually he was going to have to fight back. Or risk being killed by his one of his own Namekian Brothers.

”He has to just listen to me, beating the hell out of each other isn’t going to help save Namek. I don’t understand why he doesn’t realize this, it’s like that enhancement has made him a completely different person. There has to be some way to reach him, some way to get through to him.”[/i]

[Deleted]

Cargo's high knee was blocked by Orenji, but it did not stop the elbow from hitting its mark. Orenji stumbled back a bit as Cargo watched Orenji. Orenji was more powerful than Cargo, but he cared not. He was going to do whatever he could to complete his mission. His mission was a simple one, make Orenji join him by any means necessary.

”Cargo it doesn't have to go this way! There is no reason for us to fight; there is a greater threat here. We need to all stick together if we are going to be able to defeat it.”

Orenji quickly dropped back into a defensive stance. He continued to speak to Cargo, but he was past the point of words. He wanted his brother to share in his new lease on life. Cargo didn't care about any evil threat. As long as the threat left him and his enhanced brothers and their homes alone, Cargo wouldn't care. Their would have to be a legitimate threat for him to care even in the slightest, and even if he did the urge to bite Orenji was to great.

"You will join me! YOU WILL! YOU WILL! YOU WIILLL!"[/color]

Cargo charged at Orenji like a mad man with a crazed look in his eyes. He slashed at Orenji with his sharp claws one hand after the other. He wanted to draw blood he wanted to do whatever he could to immobilize the stronger opponent. After slashing at Orenji, he would attempt a smooth spin kick before launching at any available body part attempting to bite him. He was going to try and infect Orenji with all he had.

[Orenji]

Once again Orenji was standing across from Cargo. He could see a mad look in Cargo’s eyes, he was starting to think that there was no way to help him. Cargo was clearly changed for good, and it looked like now he didn’t want to go back to the way he was. Orenji wasn’t going to give up just yet, Cargo still had to be in there somewhere, and he just had to think of a way to get him back.

”Cargo I am going to help you, no matter what the costs. There has to be a way to get this thing out of him. But maybe there isn’t maybe if I had known about it earlier I could have done something. God dammit Cargo you have to listen to me for one god damn second and all of this can be avoided.”[/i]

"You will join me! YOU WILL! YOU WILL! YOU WIILLL!"

Orenji watched Cargo charge at Orenji, running like a mad man. Orenji slowly began to back up, but had to quicken his pace as Cargo began slashing at him. Orenji was able to dodge most of the attacks because of his barrier, but on the final slash the barrier broke. Orenji was surprised that happened, but it had done its job. Cargo then performed a spin kick, but it was blocked by Orenji’s left arm. Cargo then launched himself at Orenji, looking like he was trying to bite any part of him. Orenji however sidestepped the bite, and pushed off Cargo once again creating space.

”Alright Cargo since it appears that you won’t listen to a word I am saying.”

Orenji pointed his left arm index finger at Cargo, orange ki began to build up at the end of it. The orange ki ball began to grow, as more ki was flooded into it. Moments later Orenji launched the beam at Cargo, yelling Dodonpa! He hoped the beam would slam into Cargo causing this fight to end right now, he didn’t want to hurt his Namekian brother, but it looked like the only way.

”I am sorry Cargo, but this seems like the only way to make you listen. I am not going to join you, I am not going to take this enhancement that you have taken. Because whatever it is that happened to you, it changed you, and not for the better I see.”

[Deleted]

Cargo was pushed forward as Orenji side stepped him. Cargo was engulfed in his rage as he wanted to force Orenji to join him. Cargo turns around with a look of pure violent lust. He was lusting to beat Orenji into submission and forcing him to partake in the enhancement. Cargo's anger rose as he could not get Orenji like he wanted.

"Alright Cargo since it appears that you won't listen to a word I'm saying."

An orange light started to shine from Orenji's finger as he pointed it towards Cargo. It became obvious that Orenji was pouring more into the attack as it grew in size. Cargo, trying to prevent the attack, dumbly charged Orenji. Cargo came withing three feet of Orenji before he yelled Dadonpa. The ray shot forward and slammed into Cargo's chest with great force and speed. Cargo slide back through the dirt at least fifteen feet as the ray pounded against his chest. Cargo was raging against it, but the ray was starting to pierce through his chest. Instead of Cargo allowing his body to fall he continued to rage against the ray and it shot through his body crashing into a nearby boulder. Cargo's eyes widened as he fell hard into the dirt.

”I am sorry Cargo, but this seems like the only way to make you listen. I am not going to join you, I am not going to take this enhancement that you have taken. Because whatever it is that happened to you, it changed you, and not for the better I see.”

It was more than obvious that Orenji had not seen the damage done by his Dadonpa as debris kicked up from contact with Cargo. When the smoke cleared he would have no choice, but to lay his eyes on the body of Cargo. Blood was pouring out of the hole created by the dadonpa and blood was starting to flow from Cargo's mouth as well. Cargo cried out in pain, and may not have much time left.

"ORENJI! *pant* *pant* *pant* Brother, please...come to me."[/color]
