Well while everyone was busy on Name an unknown force had squared the cosmos for specific individuals who had gotten in their way. Rhona's last known family still residing on earth on land owned by her famil. Left a smoldering crater. The dojo where she grew up strung with the bodies of its students and master burning to the ground. A big message left as the first of many targets. Rhona Hall

Things were tense already after the planet Namek was blown up. The Summit in utter chaos and she just... she did not think this was going to be the way it would be. She was just now coming back to a home, but she comes to find out that was not the case anymore.
Her fingers went cold and her heart threatened to stop, her breathing was shallow, she felt like she was dying. After everything going on and she just up and left only to come back to this carnage. Just arriving in her town it seemed more ghostly than before but she would pass by her old Dojo for nostalgic reasons and only see this horror. Her heart can't bear it.
She worried about her great aunt who was not terribly far away in a bolting second she was air born up the mountain side and there in seconds. She recoiled seeing only more chaos. Once landed her body could not take a stand and she fell to her knees.
"Mordryb" that is what she called her great aunt since she was old and spoke Welsh. The tears would come and the pain would not stop. an ice pick was singing into her chest and making this cold and painful feeling in her ribs and back of her mouth. She'd cry so loud and her hands would clutch the loose dirt that laid in the crater before her. Losing her parents was hard but she knew this was a direct attack on her. Who would do this to so many innocent people!? Her aunt didn't know how to fight, she was old and frail, children here were just learning to be confident and some could barely bust a plaque but they were determined to try. Rhona tried to think but there was no one that came to mind who would try and do something like this to scorn her so much.
Her skin turned red as a heat rose from her anger and agony and she'd try and stop herself from Rage. Hands went to the side of her head smearing the ashen soil across her cheeks as she curled over barely keeping it at bay and just cried as her power level fluctuated and pulsed. She wanted to find who did this... her anger grew great bloodlust. She would refrain from that feeling again, at least for now, without knowing what monster did this... there was no point in spilling blood. Focus... focus....
It was just her imagination but she heard her Modryb's voice calling for her Cwningen meaning her Rabbit and Rhona would not come in time. Feeling as if the crater held an echo that voice just for her to hear telling Rhona she failed to protect the only family she had left. She silently prayed apologies to the echoing hoping some where across the Afterlife they would hear her.

Crouching in the dojo, El would gently shift the bodies, looking to inspect how they were killed. On his planet, he was clan born- meaning that he had been trained to track, inspect, search, deduce. At the same time, he was a chief, which meant he also was able to silently kill, taught in the ways of Mal Bour- ghost makers. He would attempt to see if he could sort out what type of weapons killed them. Opening his mouth to speak to Rhona, he swallowed his words as she turned and bolted.
"Rhona-!"
He'd turn and take off after her, not able in the least to keep up. Still, he would continue in the same direction, landing softly as he glanced around. The crater. Was it blown into the side of the earth, or was it like something had blasted it from above? He saw her crying, and would gently place a hand on her shoulder.
"I am...so sorry, my Lajak okeo**. Your...family, I assume?"

She did not answer him right away, but she raised herself from the ground feeling his hand on her shoulder, her hands rested on her knees. Thinking about it hurt her but she forced herself to nod and answer. "The only.... I had left."
The winds felt colder now that she was calming down, her body was not threatening to Rage. It was not anger that held on to her focus. It grew into grief, "I just can't imagine who would do something like this. Worse... I can see this happened because someone wanted to hurt me. I really just... have no idea why."

He would frown, and attempt to turn her toward him. Holding her shoulders, he'd pull her into a hug. Maybe not the most comfortable considering his armor, but there it was. After, he'd glance around, stepping away a moment as he went into warlord mode, attempting to begin his hunt.
"Someone attacks planet Namek, blowing it up without hesitation. Then, returning here, we see a hole where your family was- clearly, whoever did this was powerful. They did not destroy the planet, however, just your loved ones."
He turned back toward her.
"One of many codes of war- find what your enemies love and care for and exploit them. Whoever did this was looking to send you a message. And it is plain as day."
He would stare.
"Stay away."
He scratched his head.
"Did you piss anyone off on Namek? What was going on in the last few weeks that may have led to this?"

His hug surprised her but she let it happen the cool metal sent a momentary comfort through her heated body. Enough that her tears slowed and she worked on getting her breathing back to normal.
Then his words struck her. As if these things would be connected some how? Why would the demolish Namek with out a second but only take part of the earth, especially as the same result would have happened if they destroyed the earth as well. She'd give a nod agreeing with his next statement about how it was directed towards her. A
However as far as pissing anyone off... She searched through faces of Namek that she had seen. scratching the fuzz on the side of her head getting the itchy dirt out of it. "Maybe that Saiyan.. Brocc, I pissed him off I am sure but I doubt this smells like his doing." Fresh in her memory the summit, everyone was there... "You don't think those people in Red and Black would have had anything to do with this... would you? You saw them before we were taken off Namek too? Other than that... I can't think of anyone."

"It is possible. I do not know what they were or what they were doing, but they sounded like bad news. I have to wonder what has the power to destroy an entire planet..."
He folded his arms.
"It just smells fishy to me. Namek happens, then almost at the same time this happens? Look at these scorch marks- this was recent. I do not believe in coincidence. It's almost like they knew you wouldbe back soon to fix it."
He'd step out of the crater, back toward her.
"We should meet with this planets guardian, if he is still here. He should know something. Unless...you have another task to complete?"

He got her mind thinking, she rubbed her hands on her pants and took another look over the area. Her jaw clenched as the memory of what should be here will no longer be. But with another deep breath she evaluated his words and her shoulders sunk.
"No I have nothing else here for me. Lets go back and see Vo Lang then." Her eyes narrowed and fell.
Before turning around she looked back up to him. "El..." She fumbled a second. "... Thank you." He helped her a lot tonight. It was just the firm voice that she need.

He lifted his chin a little.
"My mother was taken by exile raiders, raped and tortured. They hung her body outside the wall with much glee, throwing rotten fruit at it days after her death. A week later, their camp had their own bodies hanging outside of it, and I buried my mother."
He spoke softly.
"I know well the demands of honor. Limax may have a dark power, but his honor demands he seek retribution. You may not yet feel it through your grief, but you too will feel the call of vengeance. You are the only friend I have left- so I will be there to help you see justice is done."
He'd give a small smirk of a smile, then follow her out.

Rhona was just getting to the after math of the brutality that stood here. There was no telling what all was actually done to these people to her Modryb... Still it seems this was something El was accustomed to seeing. Rhona was not, still she understood that he knew how she must be feeling.
Rhona already wanted to know who did this... Vengeance? Could she go down that road again? There was a feeling in her hand that was a phantom discomfort of taking another person's life. She tried to stop Limax from going down that road... seeking Vengeance now felt very hypocritical.
Justice however... was she hoped who ever did this will feel the equivalent pain of every man, woman, and child here. Was Rhona going to be the one to have the right to do that?
"Alright then." She had a weak smile, held out her hand for his. If he took it then she will lift them both up in flight back to the lookout. "Lets go."

He'd nod, and follow.
