Hearing his native tongue caused him to waver. He had been preparing a pilgrimage to honor his people. To make their lives better. It felt like a cruel joke to tell him to find a way. To use the specters of the dead to guilt him to abandon his duty to honor them. To ensure that his race went down at the proud warriors they were. But more than that, if he managed to pull it off his people would be avenged, and if he failed then no other world would die for housing him. But as cheap as the shot was, it landed. And with Rhona powering down he felt his resolve waiver.
Was there another way?
Wasabi didn't seem to think so. He could feel the eagerness and willingness from behind. His own power rippling. Could the two of them kill a God? Could they avenge the lives of countless innocents? His eyes shot downward toward the ground. Taking another step toward the now powered down Rhona as one of his arms powered down. A step that he was willing to listen.
"Rhona I-"
His words were cut off as suddenly spears made of Ki surrounded him. All of the energy weapons moving in unison to pierce through his hide. Blood splattered everywhere as Limax was impaled by the impliments. Time seeming to freeze for him for just a moment as his eyes widened in shock. His guard had been put down by those that he'd once called friends, and he'd fallen into their trap.
Never again...
He roared as his body regenerated before their eyes. His hand shooting toward the Majin, a blast of power exploding out of his palm racing for her as his rage echoed through the heavens. Wasabi would have his answer.
We kill anyone that stands between us and vengeance.

The blast hit Tsubaki in the side as she jumped out of the way and it slammed her into the wall knocking her out cold. Her pl diminished to a low level (pl: 30).

El's eyes widened, but he would step in front of Rhona, speaking to Limax quite directly.
""E-easy big fellas. We don't want none of that action. You just do you."
He'd be slowly backing himself and Rhona to the edge, and if one of them attacked....he'd push Rhona's ass off, and meet their assault head on. He didn't stand a lions chance in hell, and to be honest he didn't think she did either. But he could give a few seconds before his death for her to break away and escape, if they were after bloodshed. He wasn't trying to protect her because he thought her weak.
He was trying to save her life, because clearly they were way strong. And if the choice had to be between himself and the perky little blonde bombshell behind him?
Well shit. He'd had a good run.

Wasabi would grimace as Limax fired a full powered blast at the Majin. Sensing her power he felt a small twinge of relief as he sensed that she wasnt dead. Flashing the rest of them a warm grin that didn't quite meet his eyes, which were brimming with unbridled lust for revenge he'd casually wave at them. Fixing a pointed look at Rhona and Atlanti to not escalate things further. He'd hate to see his friends die here. Still in Limax's head he'd ask,
'So we're off then?'

Why? Why was she attacking? Atlanit had seen the majin in action earlier, just before being rescued. She knew the woman was fool hardy and reckless, but she didn't think...they'd been reaching him! Even her meager action had its consequences, and now all of them were blooming into affect around those who remained.
"No." The word scraped past her throat, barely a whisper as she saw Limax lash out. Dread clutched her heart as she force herself to her feet and fell onto her hands and knees again. Too soon, but things were happening whether it was soon enough or not. For a moment, her heart stopped. She thought she'd be sick, her stomach twisting into a tighter knot, but she could still make out a flicker of power from the woman, could still see a hint of breath in the faint movement of the unconscious warriors shoulders. She still breathed.
Hope fluttered in her heart, even though she had to swallow back the bile. Even now, there was still good in him. He could have killed her, could have killed any of them, and it sounded as though he would at the rate the were going. How many more would fight?
She needed to stop this, somehow, yet it felt as though she wouldn't only make things worse. The endless chorus in her head told her she couldn't do anything to stop this. Nothing more than she had already, at least. And yet, they needed help.
“No more.” She stood to her feet, pushing up and facing the two. Wasabi and Limax, ready for bloodshed and death, even though Wasabi was trying to get them to stop.
Yes, they needed to stop. She wished she could tell Wasabi what she was thinking, or Limax, but if she could not help her friends by going with them, then she would help the others who were here. She wasn't even sure she could help the woman who had attacked her friend, but she couldn't be left here to die, either.
And if Tsubaki wasn't dead, then her friend still existed beyond this rage, the grief and need for vengeance. That, she couldn't fault him, but it was enough.
It was enough to hope.

"No! No!" She glared at Tsubaki but changed her look when the attacks fired off.
She looked at Limax and it was beyond her. What ever was going through his head she almost had her friend change his mind. But this... then El stepped in front of her. "Oi, what are you doing?" She'd take a couple of steps as he lead her but she instead grounded her feet halting him completely from moving her.
She was about to get real mad when she saw Wasabi and then Atlanti make their moves. Rhona hadn't been crying for some time now. Placing a hand on El's arm she reassured him with a nod. Atlanti filled her with hope and she stepped forward and would stand beside her. Hyper Human, Human Hero, and there she would take a similar stance.
"At the very least you need to see we are not the cause of your anger." As if he would possibly believe Tsubaki's attack was enough to give the grandeur of taking Limax down in a trap. Rhona knew her friend was stronger than that. "We will see you again someday... we will be ready."

El would slowly shift out of the way for Rhona at her nod, shaking his head as she moved around him. He spoke softly.
"Your funeral, blondie...."
He'd crouch, forearms resting atop his thighs as he waited to see how this played out.
'More like our funeral.'

He didn't even look toward the Majin to confirm the kill. He was beyond caring right now as he eyed those that had once called him friend. Those who would not stand with him, those who offered hollow words at the end of eternity. But he agreed with one point. They were not the reason for his anger. And wasting his energy on them wouldn't help his purpose or avenge anyone.
"I hope we do."
One way or another he would like to see them all one last time. But he was prepared for this to be the end of his ride. Pulled along by the invisible strings of fate and his wish he would move forward because right now stopping would be too painful. He'd back up and place a hand on Wasabi's shoulder before reaching for his pocket once more. Pressing the opposite side of the button. Rather than bring the God of Law to him. He was going to go to the God.
He'd not destroy another planet for his revenge however. The battle would be in the realm of the Gods.

Wasabi would wave goodbye to his friends. It could be the very last time he'd see them. There were a lot of words he wanted to say to them . . . to help them understand why this HAD to happen. He was done playing the bystander. He felt Limax's hand on his shoulder, with a wink he'd call out, "Be back in a fl-"

Atlanti watched in dismay as Limax vanished, another part of her grateful. He wasn't out to destroy this place or it's people; she couldn't fault him that, even if she disagreed. Even if it felt wrong.
One thing that stood out to her was how different things felt. Sharper, keener. Colors were brighter, sounds more clear, and with it, the feeling she'd begun to have since coming to the outpost that something was wrong. She staggered back at the sight of her friend a step as he flew away, tears openly streaming down her face. Such pain, and anger...and more. Like a gleam of something darker masking the presence of the one who had called her friend.
"We will meet again," she whispered, hands shaking. She couldn't believe what she saw, couldn't understand what she sensed. Was it more than what she thought, after all? Was her friend truly so lost? Yet still, he was not bringing the destruction to them, nor did he continue his attacks. That was something, wasn't it? The faint flicker of a candle in the dark.
She turned her eyes to Wasabi before the two were gone, a silent plea in them for him, though she couldn't put into words what it was for.
Once the two were gone, she would turn her attention to the majin who had attacked her friend, frowning slightly as she approached the unconscious woman. She lay her hands over the woman, the light blue energy of her ki brighter now, and lighter as she healed the wounds she had sustained.
"What will you do now?" she asked the others, feeling like she was watching everything from above.

Tsubaki would stir and wake up, feeling like shit. The Namekian girl was healing her. She looked at her and simply said.
"Has anyone ever told you that you are cute for a namekian girl?"
It was stupid but not the stupidest thing she had done all day. She would attempt to sit up.

Rhona powered down and looked around. Relief swept over her and she put her hands on her hips staring back at where Limax was, His blood still splattered the floor. Her anger has ebed seeing Atlanti already looking like she is hard at work healing the Majin.
"Well obviously Bana and Berri have their own objectives... Me, well I am home. I am going to go and stop by to see Modryb." The word "home" felt bad in her mouth. Namek had good memories on it, Limax no longer had a place to call home her heart was broken for that and all that just transpired. So much she crossed her arms to cradle the pain. But she was tired now, the summit, this, and there was more to come.
She saw Tsubaki stir and chuckle. Seems like the Majin will be alright in no time.

Now that everything seemed to be over the suited up Bana would take a step forward. Pleased that he didn't have to go through another world ending event in the span of an hour. He'd leave the Majin to the Namekian as his suit had no healing capabilities, and even if it did. Well, she had invited it on herself.
"Actually, I'm a few monkeys short of my primary objective. So until I get orders from the Armada, I think I'll do some sightseeing."

"Mhmmm." Berri looked back at the group around her, focus no longer on the Namekian that had vanished, or taken the child of a dead star with him. The little drama fest was certainly interesting, but she had no plans to stick around for the mess that threatened to break out with it.
"That's not a bad idea." Her lips quirked behind her mask as she spoke. She'd heard quite a bit from Rhona about humans and the way they lived. Time to see if it was as bad as she imagined. And if she picked up some data along the way for later, well, that wouldn't hurt either.

“I –What?” It took a few seconds for her to recognize the flirting coming from her current patient, but Atlanti’s head jerked back from when the words broke through the wall of her thoughts. The Ki coming from her flickered and faded as she realized she hadn’t imagined what she heard. The Namekian just stared as though she’d been told Tsubaki was secretly a dog in disguise. Her brain felt like it was throwing itself against a brick wall as she wiped her face with her hands, streaking the moisture that shone against her cheeks. The person who had just attacked her friend was now flirting with her despite the fact they apparently weren’t into green. Maybe it was just the type of humor they fell back on to lighten the mood? There was no way they were serious.
“Thanks,” she managed after a moment with a faint voice. It didn’t take much to ignore near insult that threatened to make her self-conscious. The rest of the world was calling her attention, distracting her now that the Majin was conscious and able to joke. The colors still pulled her attention, and the sensation of evil was gone. Like Limax’s blood, there was only a reminder of what had happened just moments before, leaving a faint taint to the world around it. But she could sense good here, and even if others didn’t register strongly one way or another, it was better than what had nearly happened.
More than grateful for the distraction he others provided, she looked back at Rhona when her friend mentioned that she was home. The Namkian nodded in agreement. At least they could say that.
“I’ll be going home for now, too. You’re welcome to visit you like.” Her voice wavered, thinking of those who waited for her. Those would be worried once they heard of what happened on Namek. The others she would need to share the news with, how the loved ones they still had on that sunny planet were gone. The Elder, the Dragon, the people she had worked with in the infirmary and helped on the farm. Even if the Namekian community she knew lived on Earth and called it home, she knew it was a second home for many.
How could she explain she knew nothing about what happened to have the whole planet disintegrate around them? What kind of closure could come with, “I don’t know?”
“You should give yourself a moment before you try getting up again,” she advised the Majin as she tried to sit up. The woman was a fighter; she wouldn’t be down longer than she had to be, it seemed. Atlanti pulled herself into a crouch, wanting to stand but also not sure her ‘patient’ wasn’t going to push themselves too far.
She has no idea who Berri is, but she can make a guess at Bana. Maybe. She recognized one voice of the two, anyway.
