The Streets of Hell(Jinsoku/Aice/Open)

[Silvestra Taxo]

Fear and emotion of regret ran down through the girl's body, as she entered the city filled with Saiyans. This was Rad City. The city ran by the monkeys, where the humans are merely known as slaves. Silvestra's hood, headphone-like style on the hood was covering her head. Her hands where shoved inside her sweater pockets, green hair shoved inside of the sweater, instead of letting it hang out like she'd always do. Silvi came here to take a little peak about this city. No one dared her to, or forced her to. She just came on her own. And yes, she had many regrets of coming here. The smell of death flowed swiftly through her nose, and released from her mouth, making a heavy, but silent sigh. She'd just hope no Saiyan would notice by the fact that's she's a human. Either being enslaved or killed. Two things that would make a hard decision.

Though, it wasn't the time to predict or imagine what would happen if she was caught. Happy thoughts, Silvi. Happy thoughts... wait a minute. I've been here for like ten minutes and already this place is scaring the living damn out of me.. and the worst part is, I think I'm lost.. Silvestra thought. Silvi was still introduced to "exploring" for the fact that this wasn't her first time traveling far from the settlement back home. Making her parents worry like this, probably wondering where she was. But so far. as Silvi explored part of the streets, it looked like she was ready to turn back. The thoughts of death/enslavement, the scenery of the area Silvestra was in now was just making Silvi weary. Even though she wasn't really into this city for a while, already she was tired by all this walking.

I need to find a place to rest... a place where I won't be so noticeable. Silvestra thought, as another sigh escaped from her lips. But the question was where exactly would be a good place to rest? And definitely, sleeping out in the open wouldn't even be suggested as a good idea. Maybe if she can find a dark alley, completely empty would be good. Yeah, that's it! An alley wouldn't really be one of my best suggestions to rest, but it's better than to just be captured and enslaved, or worst, killed. She thought again. Before she can walk off and find an alley to rest, a loud, raspy, yet strong voice echoed out to Silvestra. "Hey, you!" The masculine voice shouted out to Silvestra. "Do not move, or you will be killed on sight!" The voice threatened.  Not even turning back to see who it was, no doubt it would be a Saiyan, Silvestra dashed off in the streets, using all of her speed.

The figure, most likely of a Saiyan, ran after Silvestra. Though, she was lucky enough to actually outrun the Saiyan, but it felt like it was a neck-to-neck race. Silvi still roamed around the streets, trying to outrun the Saiyan, but there were no places to hide, no alleys to turn into. Silvestra didn't even bother to look back and see how close or far the Saiyan is. This little game of chase has kept going over for at least another ten minutes of Silvestra. "Stop!" The voice cried with anger, yet the feeling of tire came along. "I.. said..!!" And the voice started to fade, as Silvestra was still on her feet, running for the hills. As she kept running, to her left, seemed to be an opening, most likely to be some sort of alley. Turning her direction, she ran into the opening of the alley.

Running deeper into the alley, Silvestra stopped, as she rammed herself over to a pile of boxes and trashcans, collapsing to the ground. Panting heavily, Silvi sat up, as she looked around. There were literally puddles everywhere, which also goes for the trashcans and cardboard boxes. That was WAY too fucking close... She wondered, as she breathed out a heavy sigh. Well, here she is now. In an alley. Taking off her MP3-Like sweater, she revealed her as usual, her black tank top. I'll take a rest here for a few minutes.. then back to the road for me.. With a nod, finishing off her last thought, she was making herself comfortable with the trashcans, the lids, and the cardboard boxes, she leaned back against a wall, both hands behind her head, as her eyes dozed off upwards to the sky.

[Jinsoku Akuma]

A dark cloaked figure stood in one of the many alleyways that entwined the city. The black-cloaked figure stood against the alley wall near the beginning of the long alleyway, the street next to it open and vibrant with the footsteps of mostly saiyans. The darkness of both the alley and his clothing made Jinsoku Akuma blend into the background of the city much more efficient, although he liked to be near the city streets in case trouble brewed, he could use the multitude of people for a decent distraction and/or getaway. Jinsoku usually only came to Rad city to do business with someone, today was no different. He had done his business and was now simply waiting, listening for any opportunities to help people, to help any humans that may need it in this city. As Jinsoku’s eyes scanned the street crowd, his ears were the first to respond to a heightened voice.

“Hey you! Do not move or you will be killed on sight!”

It didn’t take Jinsoku’s eyes long to locate where the voice had come from, his eyes peering through the peepholes of his mask as he spotted a large saiyan yelling for someone to stop. All he saw however was a speedy blur as they guessed the person in question knew it was for them. The blurred person flew by the alley Jinsoku was in, the saiyan giving chase. Jinsoku knew what speed was; he could tell that the saiyan would lose this footrace unless he was aided by other saiyans. Jinsoku would make sure this wouldn’t happen. If the saiyans told someone to stop or be killed, there were two options, they were human or a danger to the saiyans. Either way Jinsoku was going to help or at least make sure the person in question was safe.

Jinsoku quickly channeled his ki to allow him to float up to the nearest roof, in which he would then try and spot the blur again before he would give chase as well. It didn’t take long for Jinsoku to pass the saiyan as he quickly moved across or bounced off the many rooftops and wall structures that made up the city. The figure was moving very fast; so fast that Jinsoku couldn’t catch up to the actual speed, but Jinsoku could keep up with the figure, only lagging behind slightly. It wasn’t long before both he and the blurred figure had outrun the saiyan completely. Jinsoku’s eyes watched as the figure darted off into an alleyway, going deeper and deeper until they stopped as they ran into a bunch of piled up boxes and trashcans. Jinsoku finally was able to see what the person looked like. Yea...Human...but so fast…

Jinsoku noticed the clothing of what he thought was a girl. She was wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, her green hair tucked nicely into the hood and only visible from the front. He watched as she collapsed, breathing hard and then started to take her sweater off, revealing her long green hair and black tank top. By just watching her Jinsoku had caught his breath, having had to use all of his speed just to keep an eye on her. Jinsoku watched as the girl then leaned against the wall and looked up towards the sky. He was sure she could see him now as the wall she was leaning against was aligned directly from the building rooftop he was standing on and anyone who looked up would notice his dark black clothing with three dark gray buttons aligned on each side of his chest area, Red lined the bottom of his dark shoulder pads as well as his hand and knee guards. Nearly every inch of him was covered or hidden behind clothing except for the bottom of his hands and fingers. His arms were folded as he continued to stare at the swift lady.

Jinsoku was unsure about what to do next; it appeared she was safe for now. The saiyan most likely have given up on chasing just one human. Jinsoku usually would leave a person in need when they were safe, occasionally if they looked hungry or thirsty Jinsoku would give them money and/or the necessary items to last them for the day but this lady looked well nourished. He was curious about her speed though...Jinsoku had not met many who could outrun him. Jinsoku had decided what he was going to do. Jinsoku jumped into the air, using his ability to fly to leverage him over the alleyway before he slowly descended down and in front of the girl. Hopefully she wouldn’t strike at him, as he meant no harm. As his feet tapped the ground, it wouldn’t take long for words to be heard as his mouth moved behind his mask.

“I mean you no harm. I am just curious...your speed is amazing. I have not met many people, especially humans, who can gallop through the crowded streets like you did. Were you trained?”

Jinsoku thought it would be best if he approached the reason why he was in front of this guy directly and not wasting any time. It wasn’t a matter of time; he had nothing else to do. It was a matter of curiosity and how important it was to know people who could outrun a runner such as him. Arms stills folded, Jinsoku would patiently wait for some kind of answer.

[Aice]

The streets of the Rad city were live with happy Saiyan's,
walking care free down the well maintained roads; some carried small food
items, and young child held shiny balloons. They're couldn't be any less
oblivious people in the world than here in Rad city, while these people basked
in the sun and wealth, not far away others suffered. Whether it was the plan
fact that they didn't know or they didn't care, it didn't change the fact that
life in the slums was hell for most. While the walls facing towards the inside
of Rad city where well-kept and maintained the outside; the slums, where not so
well up to date. The walls where basically just there to stand as reminder;
this is where humans belong, stay out.

A breeze ripped through the high buildings causing a slight shift as they moved
with the wind, the glass panes that lined the buildings vibrated with the force
of the gust. Aice tightened his grip on the wire he hung onto; it was the only
thing keeping him from fall off the side of building. Climbing down from the
top of sky scrapper, Aice made his way down quietly, he was out in the open and
vulnerable up here, but as long as no one saw him he would be fine.  Once
you live in a city for long enough you don't look at the buildings as often,
eventually they just fade from your immediate vision, so Aice would be fine as
he made his way out. The building was empty aside from those that cleaned here,
but he was able to slide past them.

Off in the distance as storm had been brewing all day, the
clouds growing thicker and thicker as the day had gone on. Occasionally a lightning
bolt would crack through the sky line, lighting the whole city up. Aice didn’t think
he would have time to finish the job before the storm had hit, with those winds
he would have been blow off, surely slamming into the ground. If that wasn’t
bad enough, lighting also had a back rep for hitting sky scrapper, sorta like
the one he was currently climbing up. Aice didn’t let the idea alone slow him
down, he decided to go ahead and finish the job, he was already here anyway.

“Who knows I might like getting with thousands of
volts.” Aice chuckled.

Aice had just finished a job, unknown contractor, but a job was a job for Aice.
All he had to do was take a package and bring it to the top of this skyscraper,
no questions asked, he just had to get it done by today. It was simple since
the building was empty and Aice out ran anyone that had noticed him; the only
difficult part was having to climb to the top. Without any ability to fly, and
few hand hold Aice had to rip an electrical cable and use it, of course he shut
down the power that ran through the cable first. Reaching the top Aice had
found that there was a small sack of coins tied to an antenna, dropping the
package, he picked up the coins and made his way back down.

About three fourths down the way Aice took a break to look check out the view;
even if he was spotted Aice was low enough to use a blast of Ki to slow his
fall without wasting a lot of energy. Glancing around the streets Aice saw a
flash of green out of the corner of his eye, scanning over to where he saw it
before, the object ran by another path way. A smile shot across Aice's face in
small glimpse he had saw, he could tell that it was Silvi.

"Well, well who do we have here? I wonder what she's doing so far into
enemy territory; she doesn't like these kinda places."

That's when Aice noticed it, a black figure was following after her near the
roof tops, he was quick but Silvi was faster than him, but not by much. The
black cloaked man was lagging behind her, quickly she took a corner into a
nearby alley way.

"Is she in trouble?"

Without missing a beat, Aice kicked off from the glass wall pushing him away from the face of the
building, untying the cable Aice used two Ki blasts to send him flying across
the buildings below. Continuing to repeat the blasts Aice slowly fell towards the
ground making it to the alley way where the cloaked man and Sivli were at.
Landing in the alley way with a thud, Aice looked up to see the cloaked man was
now a few feet away from her. Aice had no time to judge he was a threat, but
being this far into the Rad city you couldn't trust anyone that you didn't
already know. Already charged his Ki flowed through his veins, Aice hands
glowing with electrical sparks.

"Hey asshole, back off from her!" Aice yelled at
the man, thunder cracking in the background as the storm closed in on the town.

Dashing forward Aice charged at the cloaked man,
closing in the distance between them in a second. Aice slammed his electrified fist
into the man’s side, hopefully with just enough force to get him away from Silvi . Aice
 didn’t want to kill him, but he didn’t want him that close to Silvi , without knowing his intentions.

Keeping his eyes on the man, he talked to Silvi ,

"Hey are you ok? He didn't hurt you or anything did he?" Aice's voice carried a tone of concern in it.

[Silvestra Taxo]

Silvestra still continued to pant heavily, as she still stared right into the sky. She had no idea how lucky she was to outrun that monkey soldier. She was glad she was able to even lose sight from the Saiyan's eyes, or at least make him run out of energy. Man... I love being lucky.. She thought, as she was still viewing the skies. Honestly, Silvi always relies on her luck, when she should be thanking her speed. If it's anything she doesn't lack in all of her aspects, it would be speed. She dares not to test out her strength or any of her ki abilities to the Saiyan. If she had, it would of been a game over for her. Silvestra can admit she can't even harm a fly even with using all of her strength to begin with. She can admit she can't even make anything explode, or anything by using her ki. But with her speed, maybe there can be a huge difference. But really, it would be really pointless to the girl if she'd stay back and fight with that monkey. Not only more Saiyans would try to butt in, but would also mean that Silvestra would be outnumbered, unless some other human helps her out, which would sort of be a doubt in this city.

Silvi's heavily pant decreased a little, as she was taking her little break. Her mind was starting to calm down, as the hardness of her heart pounding like no tomorrow started to cool down. Although this was just another dark alley, surrounded by puddles, boxes, and trashcans, this was actually more relaxing than Silvestra thought. But, it wouldn't be a good idea to sleep on it. As time would pass by, the Saiyan might catch her for good, maybe! But for now, only time would determine her faith. Not hope, nor luck. Before Silvi can swiftly close her eyes and doze herself off to her little dreams, and nightmares mixed, she saw some sort of creature up on the rooftops. He was very noticeable compared with the icy-ish, blue skies covered by the white, puffy clouds by his attire, which was of course, dark. Her eyes widen in shock, as she watched the figure. Damn it! I thought I outran that guy! She thought. Truthfully, she didn't even knew what the Saiyan looked like, so she was assuming that figure was him.

But no... it wasn't. Silvestra was at least educated to distinguish a human and any other creature. Wait... this guy doesn't have those armor things those monkeys where... then again.. what if it's just to trick me and then imprison me..? Or worse..? She wondered. Silvi's eyes calmed down, but the feeling of alert was dangling on her. She watched as the creature slowly descending to the ground, in front of the girl. What the... this person can fly also..? I thought only those apes can fly around... what is this person? Silvestra thought. Truth be told, she only saw Saiyans levitating, not humans, or at least.. got them from her parents. Silvi wasn't really familiar with ki at all. She thought ki was used for bombs or stuff like that. But could it be that it's more than just explosions or whatever? Either way, Silvi had her guard up at all times. She glared right at the mask, the creature began to speak. This person was definitely something.

It was no doubt that this person is a male, just by the voice. But his attire was... strange looking. Even stranger than Silvi's mp3-like sweater. She couldn't take his word by the fact that he claimed he doesn't mean any harm. Her eyebrow rose in confusion, but at the same time, suspicious, as the male complimented on her speed. It looked like the person saw the little chase between her and the supposed Saiyan. Though for herself, she can saw her speed somewhat improved. It didn't really make a huge improvement just yet, but she can say she did a little better, however. But, Silvi was flattered. "My... speed..?" She questioned. Yup, he definitely saw the scene. "Ah.. so you saw my little game of chase with the Saiyan.." She said, stretching out her legs on top of one of the boxes. Already, it looked like she took the male's word of being harmless.

"Thanks for the compliment. Really appreciate it. Though, it was no wonder I felt something or one chasing me down as well." Silvestra chuckled. "But if I have to say, you can say I was somewhat... trained." She replied. The first time she ever tested out her speed was with a race versus a teen boy, basically. Although she may have lost, she was at least able to catch up. Yet already, Silvi felt like she made some improvement at least. "And name's Silvestra. Though, you can call me Silvi, if you'd like." She added. But introductions aside, she was rather curious about the male's flight abilities. "By the way... how exactly did you like... what's... oh, right! Levitate. How'd you do that? The only creatures so far I know that can levitate like that are those shitty apes, if you ask me... unless you're one of them.." Silvestra questioned. It was quite sad she didn't knew how some humans know how to manipulate their own ki so that they can fly. As said before, Silvestra was just very unfamiliar with ki. As she awaited for an answer, Silvi was making up her own theories on how humans can fly. Hacking? No, no.. taught by a saying? Too unpredictable. Just what?

But, just before Silvestra continued her patience for a reply, she looked up back at the sky for a moment. Gray clouds out of nowhere closing in the city all of a sudden. The hell..? She thought. Then, a voice echoed not too far away. It sounded also like a male, but younger, and awfully familiar. "Aice...?" Silvi muttered to herself, as she turned her head to the direction of where the voice came from. Brown-ish, shaggy hair, blue eyes, ripped up-ish attire? It was Aice! "Aice!" She yelled. Judging from the threat from Aice to the other male, already she can tell Aice thought this man was already a threat. But, what caught her attention was the electricity flowing around Aice's fist. First the whole flying business, and now this? What next? A great giant ape appearing at night? Though, now wasn't the time to ask questions.

"Aice! Wait!" Silvestra called. Getting herself into action, Silvi quickly got up on her feet. But, it looked like it was too late. His electrical fist was pounded right to the other male's slide, attempting to blow back the man away from Silvestra. She glared at the other male for a moment, then back to Aice. "How did you...?! And... the fist... and...and the clouds.... and..." Silvi kept stammering, as her head kept shifting from the male, back to Aice, and repeat. She then finally landed her direction onto Aice. Still, she guessed she had to save the questions for later, or at least have a good timing on it. "Eh... nevermind what I was trying to say... but yeah, I am alright." Silvi replied to Aice's question. "Though, I can respect your, I'm assuming protectiveness of my safety and all, but that man however, was no harm!" She exclaimed. Silvi didn't expressed in an angry or hurtful manner. Even she herself didn't know the man too well, neither did Aice.

"I was just telling him my little.. eh... 'training' I did or had with my speed... ahaha.." Silvestra started to explain, with a little chuckle. "He saw me getting chased by a Saiyan and how I was able to outrun that ape.. though... I doubt he didn't quit so easily, but who knows." She then chucked again. "Though, I'm curious if that other guy's okay." She then mumbled to herself, turning her head to the other male.

[Jinsoku Akuma]

Jinsoku listened as she responded his question with a question at first, probably caught off guard by his sudden approach and questioning of her speed. She then said he must have caught her little chase with the saiyan he nodded his head. “I did, but I wouldn’t call that much of a chase. The saiyan was clearly outmatched just as soon as the race began”. Jinsoku listened some more as the girl went on to thank him for his compliment and then mentioned she thought she was still being chased by the saiyan, only it was him still doing the chasing Jinsoku was a little surprised when she mentioned she was only somewhat trained. Hmm...natural born ability for the most part. “I only continued my chase in efforts to see that you were ahead of any harm that might overcome you…that and my curiousness of your natural born speed.” Jinsoku was ready to leave, his curiosity thirst quenched however the lady continued to talk, this time introducing herself.

Jinsoku was caught off guard, not many people revealed their names as quickly as she did, especially to a figure that looked as Jinsoku looked. After she introduced herself as Silvestra, or Silvi for short, Jinsoku thought he would do the same. “Jinsoku...or Jin for short…” Jinsoku was then asked by Silvestra about his ability to fly, or levitate going so far as to question if he was a saiyan. Jinsoku shook his head to the notion of him being a saiyan. “No…I’m not saiyan. Full human. Hiding myself behind this mask and clothes helps me...blend in more around here. I sometimes visit on personal matters and it’s easier for me if I can avoid any confrontations. As for my levitating...I was taught how too. I know it’s not that common for humans to fly, but everyone of us possess the potential too, most however don’t ever receive the training or know-how necessary to do it…I was…lucky in a way to receive such training...” Most of his past was a touchy subject to him, and he tried to avoid flying, especially in the sight of other humans, because of the fact that it always brought up the same question Silvi had asked, which in turned brought up his past.

As he finished speaking his ears caught what sounded like thunder, and it was close. Great a storm is here. Jinsoku didn’t care for the lightning or thunder, but the rain. He enjoyed the rain. It was then that Jinsoku’s ears heard something else, something that was much more concerning that thunder. It was the sound of ki energy being shot. Jinsoku turned his head toward where the energy sounds were coming from in time to see a young teenage looking boy approaching. Jinsoku’s quick scan of his body showed him that he wasn’t a saiyan, at least didn’t look the part. However he was confused when he saw the boy land and charge up a ki infused energy fist as more thunder cackled above. Jinsoku eyes widened slightly when the boy yelled out for him to get away from Silvi. Oh..he doesn’t think I’m her to harm h- Jinsoku didn’t have time to finish his thought as the boy zoomed toward him with amazing speed. Jinsoku’s speed and reflexes kicked him as he did what the boy said but in a combative maneuver. He stepped back and away from the lady and narrowly avoided the electrified fist of the young boy, it passing in front of his stomach area where his side would have been.

Jinsoku instinctively went to grab the boy’s arm, hoping to stop any more attacks, at least from the arm he was attempting to grab, as well as quickly blurting out his intentions. “Woah watch out their boy, I’m not here to harm her or anyone else.” If he had managed to grab the boy’s arm, he would then let it go, hoping the boy wouldn’t rashly decide to continue attacking him. Jinsoku slowly back away from the two, hopefully showing that he meant no harm as the boy asked if she was all right and Silvi in return being confused yet again at what just happened. This girl must not get out much… Jinsoku was glad however that she told the young boy, who’s name apparently was Aice by her recent call out; which Jinsoku barely managed to pick up before the boy attacked, that he meant no harm to Silvi. She told Aice that Jinsoku had followed her after witnessing the starting chase between her and the saiyan. “Yea, I too was trying to see to her safety. I managed to keep pace with her and the saiyan before the saiyan gave up, in which I ultimately decided to keep following her because I was curious about her speed. But yours seem…equal. Of course you’re pretty irrational with your decision-making…”

Jinsoku was astonished that he had meet two people with such impressive speed in the same day within minutes of each other. Was their some sort of human speed upgrade he didn’t know about? Also these two apparently knew each other, so…maybe there was...he didn’t know or cared much for that matter. For now everyone was safe and as the rain began to fall and lightning light up the sky, Jinsoku wondered if it was time for them, or at least him to depart. However, what happened next was pretty much the opposite of what Jinsoku had in mind. It was saiyans, four of them in fact, two approached from their front and two from the rooftops behind them, and one of them was the very saiyan that both he and Silvi had passed on the streets. The one who failed to catch up to Silvi was the first to speak. Another thunder roar echoed through the night sky just before his voice could be heard.

“Well...Well...It looks like we finally found the human girl...and look she has friends too. I must admit you’re speed little girl was quit enduring. However you forgot that this is the city of saiyans and we always find what were looking for. I am glad to see you have friends, it will make this beating much more enjoyable to see three human bodies laying in the streets dying…of course assuming that your clothed friend is a human too…otherwise it’s going to be two humans and whatever the hell he is. So any of you have any last words before you become a corpse?” The other saiyans chuckled devilishly as the saiyan finished speaking. Jinsoku quickly eyed the four saiyans. This is bad…not only are we outnumbered and caught in between two of them each, but I have no idea how good these saiyans can fight…

Jinsoku would slowly step forward, enough for him to whisper to Aice and Silvi without being overheard by the saiyans. “Ok...it looks like there won’t be any running from this at first…were going to have to engage. Since I know neither of your fighting capabilities and only your speed were going to use that to our advantage. You kid, Aice, do you think you’d be able to charge another one of those energy fists quick enough for me to hurl you towards one of the?” The slower-paced saiyan spoke again, curious as to what Jinsoku was whispering about. “HEY! You, what are you whispering about? Theirs no escape for you!” Jinsoku stopped whispering as he looked at the saiyan, his eyes full of merciless intent.

“Why, are you in a hurry? Isn’t this not a setting fit for a glorious battle? The disarray of the rain, the trumpet sound of thunder and the glooming lights of the lightning above. Surely your contentious self-absorbed ego can wait while I converse with my fellow associates about how magnificent this battle will be.” The saiyan grunted, clearly angry about being called contentious and self-absorbed, but the talk of a glorious battle set in a perfect setting made him swell up with pride. “Ha! It better be glorious. Fine, talk with your pathetic lot just don’t talk all day. I’m not very patient with humans.” Jinsoku smiled underneath his mask. Saiyan pride wins again. Jinsoku then returned his whispered voice and attention back to Aice and Silvi. ” I’m not very strong but I can probably manage a throw long enough for you to hit the loud mouth Aice. Silvi, if you can fight it would be very helpful if you can try and take on the female saiyan, hopefully she’s more fit to your style of combat. As for me, I’ll try and take on the two knuckleheads behind us. Hopefully we can manage long enough for a lane to open up for us to high tail it out of here with our speed. Is this plan okay with you guys? I am…used to such tactics with others.”

Jinsoku was so use to fast hit and run movements, his endurance not holding up that well in a long endured fight like this could play out to be. If pushed come to shove, Jinsoku would sacrifice himself in order to see Aice or Silvi, or even both get out alive. He barely knew them yes, but he vowed to help humans in their need for survival. Whether he knew them for years or seconds it didn’t matter to him, they were all in this hell of a world together and he would see to it that humans, especially young ones such as Aice would get to live to maybe see a Earth without the harsh reality of the saiyans.

(OOC Note: The Speaking saiyan/Leader, which is the guy with all the red and gray armor, is standing beside the female saiyan in front of us. The other two saiyans are of course behind us.)

[Aice]

The storm crackled above the group, lighting up the sky with
blots of lighting that set of across the skyline. The energy of the storm began
to really show up as the dark clouds now loomed over the city, people ran
inside to avoid the gusts and soon to come pelting rain. Knocking over trash
cans, trash was ripped off the ground; tossed high into the blacking skies. The
windows of the great Saiyan sky scrapers rattled with every passing gust, its
force shock the very structure of the building; they were built to withstand this
of course, at least most of them were.

The flashing lights scattered across the alley way, lighting up everything
inside of it, gusts blew the boxes and trash down the length of the alley
forcing it out the back side; clearing most of it free of debris. Aice could
feel the energy of the storm still growing in strength; he could smell the hint
of rain on the air. It was going to coming down hard and soon, he needed to
finish this off before the storm had fully come into swing.

At the last second the cloaked man narrowly avoided Aice electrified fist,
reaching out to grab Aice's hand, he pivoted on his foot moving his arm out of
the man’s reach, now Aice faced him head on. Aice's hands still glowed with
electricity ready to pounce once again on the man, but Silvi told Aice of how
she was being followed by a Saiyan and that he didn't seem to want to her hurt.
Silvi seemed unhurt from her experience, but Aice still didn't trust the man.

"I glad you’re alright, but you can never completely trust anyone you meet
here in Saiyan territory, you never know who they're working for. Not that it's
much of my business, but what where you doing here?" Aice said calmly to
Silvi, still staring down the cloaked man.

Aice glared slightly at the cloaked man as he backed up, telling him that he
meant no harm to Silvi that he was watching out for her making sure that the
Saiyan, hadn't got her. Aice would have thought he was lying if it wasn't for
the fact that Silvi had vouched for him, Aice himself hadn't seen any Saiyan
cashing after her, but it would make sense. Backing down a little, Aice still
kept on his guard standing between the cloaked man and Silvi. He didn't have any
need to trust him right now, he back down from the fight so right now he wasn't
too much of a threat.

Lighting tore through the sky line, echoing its roar throughout the city; had
it not been for the sound Aice would have noticed the Saiyan that had walking
into the alley way with them. Apparently the Saiyan that had chased Sivli had
found her and brought some friends along with him, three of them to be exact.

"Well today just keeps getting better and better." Aice said
electrical still flying off his hands.

The cloaked man and the loud mouth Sayain shared words, telling us how they
were going to leave our bodies in the alley as a sign to others. It was just
simple word play between the two, but it bought the group a few seconds to get
ready. Aice was already charged and ready for a fight, he wasn't going to back
down from a match like this, he needed something to release him energy out on.
The cloaked man turned to Aice and Silvi, telling him of his attack plan, Aice
listened but he already had a plan of his own.

"It's a good plan, and yes I can hold my own against these thugs, but I
think I'll use my own plan." He told the masked man.

"I'm sure you can hold on your Silvi, but if not feel free to run when I
clear a path. I know you’re not the best fighter so I won't hold it against you
if you decided to get out of here. If you need any help just holler." Aice
said turning to Silvi with a grin on his face.

"And same goes to you...’masky’... but god forbid you’re working for
Saiyan, I will, rip, you, a new one." Aice said with a dark glare.

Another lighting strike ripped through the sky, sending a flash into the alley
way, blinding everyone who was there. With everyone’s vision returned Aice had
disappeared, faded into the un-seen world.

“Hey wasn’t there just three of you there? Where the hell
did the tiny one go?” Said the loud mouth Saiyan.

“Tiny?...Ok I found my bitch.” Aice's eye slightly twitched.

Charging forward with electricity in his hand Aice cleared
the distance between then, sliding on to his knees Aice skidded below the large
man. Slamming his fist into the gut of the loud mouth Saiyan, Aice yelled out

“Paupers grief!”

The electricity flew from Aice’s hand flying to the chest of
the Saiyan sending the electricity burning through his body. The blast from the
hit sent the man flying backwards on the hard ground below, hitting the ground
his body was solid stiff still being electrified from the hit. The chest piece
that the Saiyan was wearing, was now charged and falling off in a few places,
it looked little similar to what he was wearing before. The electric charge
inside the man body was a beacon for the storm, a lightning bolt shot down from
the sky striking the body, in a flash of light, burning the body ever more.  His charred
skin smelled terrible, Aice of course had smelled worse.

“Well I wasn’t expecting that but I’ll take it.”

Standing next to the body, Aice reappeared.

Looking down the alley way at the other Saiyan’s he called
out to them,

“Alright which one of you is next?” Aice said cracking his knuckles,
grin on his face.

[Silvestra Taxo]

Silvestra watched as Jin managed to stop Aice's attempted attack. A light sigh of relief slithered out from Silvi's lips. She couldn't really handle herself when it comes to death of others, unless if it's a Saiyan, of course. Then again, that's what she needs to learn how to handle in this world. Nothing but death. The scent in the air: death. Yet, killing isn't what she was best at. Leaving others heavily injured is one thing, but seeing the blood of someone else was something Silvi isn't used to. However, as time would just fly by, eventually she will fully get use of it. Baby steps, Silvestra. "What he said... about the chase part.. of course... " Silvi said, basically agreeing to Jin's explanation. "But, I have to admit though, it seemed like your speed also increased a little the last time we met." She chuckled. Though, that memory of the race between Silvestra and Aice seemed shameful to her. Of course, she wasn't angry about losing. Winning wasn't actually everything, but for the fact that she was nothing but a klutz. Tripping, falling in water, she was just in a hurry and being aggressive enough to win, instead of taking her time. Now that, was something Silvi had learned from that obvious mistake.

Silvestra then heard about Aice questioning what was she doing here. Truthfully, she didn't really know how to reply. What the hell was she actually doing here? Saying a simple "I don't even know" and laughing it off would be something Silvi would do, but that would mean that coming here was actually pointless, unless she was asking for trouble, or a little more excitement in her life, which would be something Silvestra wouldn't even think to do, especially in this city. To start off, Silvi released a nervous chuckle. "Well... I would of course, ask you the same question." She began with her sentence, giving in a nervous smile. "I suppose you can say that I've got a little... lost. Plus, I've always wondered how this city looks like. I thought it looked terrible and disgusting... guess my thought was correct." Her nervous chuckle faded away, as she gave in one last nervous chuckle. "But, don't worry. I can still say that Jinsoku here would be on our side." She stated. So far, she only knew the name of this man. But, she can still tell right away that Jin here didn't have any affiliation with the saiyans. She doesn't really know for sure, but she just knows from her head.

Rain started to pound on the city, as the lightning zoomed across the sky, thunder crackling in the air, as Silvestra started to groan. Oh, come on.. this is my second time getting wet! She whined in her thoughts. It looked like now it "seemed" everything was settled, it looked like she was about to take her leave, even though she met Jinsuko for a short period of time. Maybe perhaps next time she can see him again. But, that's when suddenly, Silvi froze in fear, as she heard the familiar voice she heard earlier today. She couldn't even complete a thought, as she heard it. Only turning her head, she turned to which the voice came from. Immediately, she saw in front of her right now, the same exact saiyan who had the same voice as the one chasing her down the streets. The other one was a female. Wait, a female monkey? Is that the girlfriend or something?...The hell?! I thought there were only males! Now there's women? Damn society... She thought, as her eyes shifted back mainly on the main saiyan. Again, she listened as said, her speed was quite.. "interesting", she would say. Of course, she would be flattered again, but now wouldn't really be such a good time to throw back more of a smart comment to the saiyan, as she looked back for a moment, noticing the other two male saiyans.

Silvi then turned back to Jin, as he started to share out some of plan she believe, rudely interrupted by the impatient saiyan, but quickly got back to explaining afterwords. "I.. guess I can go for the female, no problem." She then mumbled, after hearing the plan. Great. This would be where her skills would be put on the test. Silvi's first battle. And it had to be with the saiyans. She lacked literally everything. Her strength, her ki, just everything. Though, it was her speed that would be the real reason why the girl still stands. Looking back at Jin and Aice one more time, she decided to confirm her choice, with a confident nod. "Alright. I'll hand the female. And thanks, Aice." She then turned to Aice, after hearing his statement with a smile, but faded a little immediately after Aice's comment to Jinsoku. That, was when the lightning across the sky was strong enough to blind everyone, or at least Silvi, whichever works, in the alley. After a few short seconds of trying to get back at her vision, she didn't try to even dare to ask what just happened. But for now, her focus was on the female saiyan, as she also was trying to get back her vision.

Now's my chance! Silvestra thought, as she immediately dashed from her spot, and to the female saiyan. It looked like she fully had her vision back. Instead of attacking head on just like that, Silvi had another move in mind. As soon as she was close to the female saiyan, she moved to her left towards a wall, lowly leaped up from the ground, pressing her left and and foot against the wall. As soon as she did the action, Silvi then twirled herself around, for a moment, as her body was directly facing to the female saiyan's left side. That, hanging out her other free leg around after twirling around the female saiyan, came her right roof swinging to the back of the female's head, kicking her to the ground. However, it didn't do critical damage, but still managed to conflict some. As the female saiyan dropped to the floor, she quickly managed to get up on her feet. Cracking her neck, she turned to Silvi. A smirk crawled on her lips, as she spoke, "Heh. Dick move you did there, human. I think it's my turn to show what I can do." She said, charging at Silvi with a fist created.

The moment the female was close to smacking Silvi's teeth off, Silvestra then brang out her usual smile, as her image then faded away, as if she teleported somewhere else. The female saiyan then stopped for a moment. "What the fu..." Leaving her sentence incomplete, she looked around for a moment. "Where the hell did that pest go?!" She yelled with frustration. That's when Silvi appeared right behind the female saiyan. Without another word, Silvi then lifted up her right leg up to the female's neck. Drawing it back, she then swung it forward with her lack of strength, but with all the speed she had as well. As soon as the foot made contact to the female's neck, the female left out a loud, painful grunt. Though, that wasn't all Silvestra had. Standing on her free leg, she started to spin around, with the female tilting her head on the foot, clutched to it. Each second, Silvi spun faster and faster. After at least a good five minutes or so, Silvestra stopped at the exit of the alley, releasing the female from Silvi's foot, and blowing her far off from the alley.

Silvi started to wobble around a little, as she went a little too fast for a moment. Okay.... okay.... okaaayy... She kept repeating in her mind, as she was dizzy as hell. Before collapsing to the ground, as the world still continued to spin, she looked back at the other two, as she found a burnt saiyan body besides Aice. "Whoaa... the in the fuh..." And down went Silvestra, later on trying to recover from her dizziness.

[Jinsoku Akuma]

After Jinsoku had avoided Aice’s electrical fist attack, he would listen as the young boy exclaimed that in saiyan territory you could never completely trust someone. I suppose that is true.. To Jinsoku, it was indeed hard to truly trust anyone, let alone some stranger in the main city of the saiyans and he could understand where the boy was coming from. Aice then asked what Silvi was doing there; Silvi first mentioning that Aice’s spend had increased the last time they met, confirming to Jinsoku’s that the two had already previously met. She rebounded Aice’s question with the same question of her own, asking what the boy was doing there also. Jinsoku listened as she half heartedly admitted she was a little lost, as well as curious as to what Rad city looked like, even mentioning a correctly hypothesized idea of what the city actually looked like. Jinsoku was glad to hear that the lady again confirmed that he was on their side.

After the saiyans showed up and Jinsoku told the other two of his plan and having a series of words between the talkative saiyan. Jinsoku was surprised to hear the young boy had a plan of his own. But the young woman Silvi agreeing to take on the female saiyan and offered her thanks that Aice would help her if she had trouble. Jinsoku was about to ask what the young boy’s plan was but a bright flash of a lightning strike from above blinded him and the others, when Jinsoku regained his vision he saw the young boy gone. At first Jinsoku wondered if he had quickly fled, but something told him he wouldn’t leave Silvi behind. Jinsoku’s ears perked when he heard the saiyan ‘leader’ say something about where the tiny one had went. Jinsoku too was curious. He’s either really fast or.. Jinsoku couldn’t finish his thought as he heard Aice speak and saw the boy’s electrical fist appear seemingly out of nowhere.

Of course he wasn’t going to spend his time watching the young boy, as soon as Aice charged. Jinsoku went into action. He quickly turned around and charged toward the two saiyans that were behind them. They didn’t seem to be ready, probably still wondering where the boy had gone. Jinsoku quickly jumped into the air and sent each foot crashing into the faces of the two saiyans. He quickly landed back on the ground, not giving the two saiyans time to recover before he quickly went into his most used move, his Sentous Okeru Tabas. Jinsoku’s fists flew through the air, his punches rotating between the two close saiyan’s upper torsos. Jinsoku’s speedy technique outmatched and confused the two saiyans and at first all they could do was take the light yet many speedy punches. Jinsoku would finish off this technique by landed a final punch, to each of the saiyan’s center chest region. Each punch landing against the saiyans chest at exactly the same time sending them both flying back and landing against the ground.

Jinsoku still was not done as he once again used his speed to quickly maneuver himself in between the two saiyans. His hands spread out and faced opened palmed in front of their faces as they tried to get up. One of the saiyans knew what was about to happen and pleaded. “No...Please…Let us go…were new in the army...we were just trying to gain reputation with the upp-“ The saiyan didn’t get to finish as Jinsoku’s palms soon lit up with a red energy, within seconds the red energy from both palms flew out of his hands in that of a short wave, creating an explosion around the Jinsoku and the saiyans. The walls of the buildings beside them were destroyed, helping to create a bigger dust cloud that reined in the rain. When the dust settled, Jinsoku still stood in the same spot; his palms were still held open and his arms out. He hadn’t moved an inch but the saiyans; their bodies were completely gone. Chunks of the two buildings were still falling and Jinsoku knew that the buildings themselves would soon collapse creating even more of a stir. Jinsoku would then turn his head and see that Aice had defeated his opponent, as did Silvi, although she was slumped on the ground. Jinsoku’s eyes locked onto the two, his voice barely being heard through the now full raging storm.

“We have to leave. Now. No doubt other saiyans have heard the commotion by now. Either we leave now or face their entire army. I have a small, hidden settlement set up just outside the city. You two can stop and rest there if you want. It’s behind the hills to the east, look for the tree marked with a red circle. I will be there waiting. I am...eager to hold a more...safe conversation.”

Jinsoku would then return his arms to his side and jumped, using his ability of flight to lift him onto another building top. He looked to his left and could see a group of about 15 saiyans heading toward their position, all in the air flying. He had no doubt they could see him. Jinsoku turned his head back to the two humans he had just met. “Hurry. More are approaching. Try and use the alleyways to reach the city’s end. I doubt it will be safe in the main streets.” With that Jinsoku looked at the arriving saiyans once more, two of them having speed up and increased their flying speed, probably in an attempt to reach Jinsoku faster. However Jinsoku wouldn’t give them the opportunity as he soon fled toward the east city’s exit, his red aura flaring around him. His speed being much more than those that was trying to tail him. Jinsoku hoped that the two would leave and not try to fight the impending saiyans. He could see the two saiyans that had speed up were clearly after him, but they would seen be specs in the background as Jinsoku’s impressive speed allowed him to escape. He was headed toward his little secret establishment. Hopefully Silvi and Aice would meet him there and he could inquire more about them.

( OOC: Sorry it took me so long to reply, I was busy and then last night got some terrible depressing news right as I was about to post...Again I’m sorry.)

[Aice]

Silvi spun faster and faster as she had the woman Saiyan latched
onto her leg almost becoming a blur the colors of the two began to swivel
around. The green blur in the mix was Silvi's hair Aice could tell; it must
have come loose from all the spinning. Eventually she let go of her iron grip
on the Saiyan, sending her sprawling across the asphalt, slamming into the
brick wall of the alley buildings. With a grunt her back hit, followed by a
cracking sound as her head impacted the bricks, slumming over she sunk against
the wall onto the ground. Crimson blood dripped down from the back of her head
flowing on to her black armor, leaving a red trail behind.

With her display winding down Silvi fell onto the alley ground, dust being
kicked up into the air. Her head rotated around as the full effects of her move
kicked in, surely her visions was spinning as well. Noting the charred remains
of the Saiyan Aice chuckled slightly,

"Ya turns out, me plus thunder storms equal's pretty fucking awesome
lighting strikes." Aice joked.

Quickly Aice made his way over to Silvi taking a knee next to her; he made sure
that she was unharmed. Aice hadn’t noticed the whole fight between the two
being partly distracted by the lighting and smell of burning flesh on the air,
but he didn't see any wounds on her.

"Are you ok? I didn't see the whole fight, just the tale end. But from
what I did see I wouldn't want to be in a fight with you." Aice said
playfully.

Helping Silvi to her feet Aice looked over to where the cloaked man was at
before, now crouching on the pavement, his caped ruffled in the strong gusts
that ripped into the corridor. Aice could make out two brunt out lines of
bodies, they were still smoking, no doubt this was what was left of the other
two Saiyan's. Whatever he had done to them must have been quite a feat, leaving
nothing behind expect ash.

"Aw too bad I was hoping for a bit more, I'm still pumped up."

The storm kicked up once again ripping through the black skies above them,
sound waves rippling through the air; Aice could feel the vibrations inside his
chest, beating almost like his heart. This time not only did the storm bring
sound it brought some rain along with it. The fat drops fell hard onto the city
filling empty streets full of water. The rain felt good on Aice's skin, the
fight had really heated him up as the cold drops of rain hit his skin it sent a
shiver down his body.

Standing up the cloaked man turned back round to face the two, still not
trusting the man Aice slid in front of Silvi. Aice couldn't be sure what his
exact intentions where, just because they worked together to take on a few Saiyan’s
doesn't mean that Aice could still yet trust him. Luckily all the cloaked man
wanted to do was to talk to them. The cloaked man told them that more Saiyan's
where probably on their way after all the noise that the fight had caused. He
also noticed that there was a hold out of sorts that he had located on the edge
of the city and that he would very much like it if he could talk to Silvi and
Aice more if the where interested. Aice was almost baffled at the idea, but
before he had time to protest the cloaked man lifted off the ground, quickly he
flew over the building tops.

"Well that was strange."

Taking notice of just how close he was to Silvi, Aice quickly moved away from
her towards the charred Saiyan, slightly blushing as he did so. 
Pretending to look closely at it, he kneeled down observing the armor. Strips
of the material hung off in different directions as if someone had ripped it
apart, piece by piece. Pushing the Saiyan over he observed the back of the
armor, just like the front the armor was peeled apart just like a banana. With
the cool rain running down his back Aice quickly calmed down, standing back up
he turned back too Silvi.

"Well he sure is an interesting fellow, not every day you jump someone in
an alley and they invite you to their house for tea and talk. “Aice laughed.

“What do you think should we follow him, I don’t completely
trust him but I trust him more than all the Saiyan’s that are heading this way.
Plus if it turns out he's legit we might be able to get him to join the
rebellion, the more of us the better our chances are.”

Aice knew Silvi was a very curious person, why else would
she wonder into Rad city alone in broad day light. Mostly likely she would go, whether
or not Aice decided to go. Aice couldn’t let her go by herself, who knows what
the cloaked man had planned for them. If they had met in the slums Aice knew
things could have been different, but there’s only two types of humans in Rad
city, those that where strong and those that worked for Saiyan’s.

“Regardless of your choice I’ll follow you, can’t have you
walking these streets alone. I’ve seen what happens when you do.” Aice grinned pointing
at the unconscious Saiyan.

Looking around the skies Aice saw two Saiyan’s fly over them
heading in the direction that the cloaked man had headed. Aice hand was still
charged with electricity, quickly he aimed at one of the Saiyan’s, with a blue
ball of Ki he blasted the Saiyan out of the sky. It wasn’t so much as to help
the cloaked man as it was Aice had the shot so he took it. Turning back to
Silvi,

“Well whatever you deiced I think you should do it quickly
because he have company on the way, no doubt they sent more than two.”

(OCO: Sorry it look me so long to post back, I've been with out Wifi for the last 4-5ish days.)

[Silvestra Taxo]

Silvestra's vision was still blurry, as she tried her best to pick herself up. Her head was hung down, along with making little circles. Right now, her surroundings were just out of her worries right now. She used her left palm to try to push her head back up, but it was no use. Damn... She thought, as she tightly closed her eyes. Silvi just feels like to throw up right now, as she released an agitated moan. Perhaps it was a bad time to actually pull a move like that, knowing she'd tumble on the ground, next to a wall. But asides from that, just before Silvestra was about to faint, she heard a voice calling to her. "Aice...?" She questioned, slowly having her head rise up. Her vision became a little more clearer each minute, as she then saw a young male right in front of him, awfully familiar to looking like Aice. Oh wait, it was Aice! "Oh hey!" She exclaimed with a jocular tone.

"Oh.. right.. that.. well.. thanks!" Silvestra chuckled nervously. Though, it was just her speed she use. Silvi saw this little first time battle as an experience to try to improve other aspects, like strength and all that. She didn't really have much of a choice except just spin and throw.  But sadly, Silvestra knew
exactly her body isn't really capable out enduring fights any longer, so
might as well end it quickly instead of just experiencing it, just to
feel the rush going into Silvi's blood. There was no way she was taking
chances of actually trying to go up against a Saiyan. No, not just yet. But, looking back at the body of the Saiyan Aice dealt, then at Aice again, "I have to say, though. I could say the same for you too." She chuckled. Though, there were a lot of questions Silvi would like to ask, not only directed to Aice either. Before Silvi can ask her questions, she then heard the voice of Jinsoku, explaining the choice to basically either leave now or face the entire army of Saiyans approaching, watching Jin flee off. Of course, her response would be getting the hell out of here.

"Yeah..." Silvestra then for a moment, talked to herself. "Strange.." She added, as the storm raged in the sky, the rain yet again, pounded onto Silvi, only harder. As Aice spoke again, she then turned her direction back. "I think we should follow this 'Jinsoku' guy. I'm not going to lie either, but I don't really completely trust him much as yet, but he already seems to be automatically on our side, better than to actually put your trust on a Saiyan's palm." She stated. The word "trust" was such a heavy word to Silvi, especially in this city, or better yet, even in this world. Everyone needed to survive somehow in this mess. And putting your trust on someone was, or could be definitely one way. Yet, it was better than to stick around and try to fight an entire army of Saiyans hovering ahead.

Silvi then went back to the pile of trashcans and boxes to pick up her sweater. Her decision of course, was to follow the masked male. Quickly equipping her wet sweater, she then saw two Saiyans above the alleys, tracking  onto assuming Jin's trail, despite that Silvestra really didn't stick around to see the whole scene. However, Aice managed to take one down out of the two. "Okay. I say we follow the guy. Though.. I don't think I can actually try to take the other one down.. I don't think I'm strong enough just yet, or at least anyone of them, asides from speed."  Silvi again, wasn't afraid to admit what she lacks of, because it was true.  But, she can at least try to see what she can do to make herself useful. "But for now, I think it's best to follow for now and see what happens."  She suggested her last words, as she then zipped off deeper into the alleys.

 

[Jinsoku Akuma]

Jinsoku’s dark boots touched the ground next to his marked tree. His head arched back; looking in the air to make sure he had truly lost the saiyans. A minute or two later, the sky’s held nothing but the still raging storm. Good. Jinsoku would then lean against another tree as he hoped the other two would be joining him shortly. I hope they can find this area. The storm most likely won’t help their cause. Jinsoku hoped they would even show up as well. Not many humans had that kind of speed, and that Aice’s ability to fight. Where were these humans coming from? Jinsoku wanted to know if there were more, if the two were involved in some kind of group. By their distaste for saiyans, he was sure they weren’t involved with the saiyans. Maybe they were involved in some type of revolution? Or back door secret society? Many questions rattled in the mind of Jinsoku as he waited for the two to arrive.

Of course he knew that they were probably curious about him as well and he knew he would have to divulge a little history about himself to even gain a little of their trust. Some parts though, he didn’t like talking about as his past was a complicated one filled with despair. Yes, he wasn’t going to divulge his entire history to them, as they were new to him as well so his trust for them were not on high standards. As the storm continued to rage, his clothing soaked and flapping in the gusts of wind the storm created, this got him thinking about a part of his history that helped mold the young man. It was tragic. As these memories roamed through his head, he would continue waiting for Aice and Silvi to hopefully show up.

[Aice]

Aice followed after Sivli as the made their escape route from the small army of Saiyan's that were after the two. Aice was surprised that they had sent so many people to track them  down , if it wasn't for the life impending doom Aice would have been flattered. The rain pounded down on Aice making him shiver, while once the cool chill of the rain was relief from the heat of the battle now that it was over Aice could feel the icy rain seeping into his body sucking the heat out of him. The only thing keeping him warm was the running he was now doing, speeding up a little he kept the shivering at bay but he could still feel it, just waiting to jump back onto Aice.

Aice glanced back ahead  at Silvi, noticing her long green hair partly hanging out from the the grey jacket she always wore swaying back in forth in the strong winds. Seeing it made Aice shiver again, reminding him of the lack of warm clothing he had.

"God, what I wouldn't do for that jacket right now." Aice laughed.

Aice remember that Silvi didn't have the best direction here in the city, being that she hadn't been here before. Speeding up in front of her Aice spoke back to her,

"I know you don't have the best idea of the lay out of here so I'll led the way out of here. I know all those secret passage ways that normal people don't know about and I would be than glad to show you." Aice smiled.

Taking a few detours and short cuts Aice and Sivli eventually made their way of Rad city and away from the attacking Saiyan guard. This area of the city was much more open with less buildings and structures, the wind and rain pelted down on the two harder than before. With no building to cover then had they moved the winds were more brutal than before, almost ripping Aice off the ground. The rain almost seemed to be blowing from the side, catching Aice in the face as he walked across the open field. Every few minutes he would glace back to make sure Silvi was still behind him, she seemed to he holding up alright. Aice on the other hand could barley feel his hands. he had never been out in these conditions for thi8s long and they having a negative affect on him. The once unnoticed shivering was now very apparently, as he teeth chattered from the lack of warmth; Aice had to keep his teeth clamped together just to make it stop.

He didn't want to bother Silvi with his problems so Aice kept his mouth shut, not like he could do much talking as it stood right now. On top of that even though she looked before off than him, Aice couldn't really know how she was with out asking, which went back to the whole talking thing. He just hopped that the masked man they had traveled so far to met was really on their side, Aice was in no condition to fight anyone. Trudging their way through the muddy unkempt field of the outskirt Aice could make out a outcropping of some sort. Even though he couldn't  see the cloaked man Aice knew they had arrived.

[Silvestra Taxo]

Silvestra kept on traveling through the alleys, still keeping up with her pace, and still breathing. Though, the rain was rather more annoying than slowing the human down, as she kept on racing along the path. She stood quiet throughout the whole trip, as she kept running. What happened back there really caught Silvi's eye and mind at the same time. Not only that, but possibly having a group, or maybe an entire army trying to hunt down two, or three, depending on how she'll see this Jinsoku person, to see whether or not he was actually a human. Even though she doesn't know this person too well, it felt like he was already a good guy. Then again, this is Rad City. A place where the word trust doesn't even exist. But, after taking some Saiyans out back there, maybe he himself wasn't a saiyan after all. But, that had to be saved for later after she actually meets the man.

Still on the run, Silvi kept entering, alley to alley, as she tried to keep herself up for the masked male's trail. She can feel the heavy rain beginning to seep into her sweater. This storm's actually heavier than expected... She thought. But sadly, there was this one little error to this little adventure: directions. She was so new into this city. She rarely even visit it often, for the fact that this was her first time being here. And to be truthful, it wasn't very pretty as Silvestra imagined it to be. Wait... where the hell am I going..? She wondered, starting to slow down. Did she already got herself lost yet again in the alleys within this horrid, retched city?

But, that was when Aice sped up in front of Silvestra, telling her he knows all these tunnels, outside corridors, whichever makes more sense, that can help them get out of the city. "Well, how lucky am I to be with you right now? Lead the way and I'll catch up." Silvi chuckled, with a nod. She released a small sigh of relief, as she then followed Aice, picking up her speed again. She really wouldn't take any chances of getting lost again, or running into another saiyan again.

Finally, both Silvestra and Aice came across a range, less populated and edifices. Slowing down a little, she took a guess that they both made it. 'Guess this is the place... doesn't look too bad... without any saiyan crawling around so far. She thought, as another chuckle swept through her lips, still keeping her track on Aice. Was this place abandoned, or some sort of field or whatever? That really didn't concern Silvi for now, however. As long as everyone's safe, then there's no need to worry, yes?

As she followed Aice through the fields, it looked like the storm was going rough on him, or at least to Silvestra's eyes. She couldn't really tell since she was behind him, but she can definitely take a guess of it. Quickly taking a glance at her sweater, then back to the boy, she unzipped her sweater, taking it off. Her shirt that was once drying off, grew damper and moister than before, immediately getting cold after the coarse breezes clawing on her bare arms, and possibly her whole body. But, she knew she had to bare with it at times like these.

"Hey, Aice!" She called, running up besides the boy. "Here... take this. You need it as much as I do. I'll try to bare with this storm, considering I already got my warmth." She chuckled again. But, if Aice refuses this offer, Silvi would then put back on her jacket, or hold it, in case he needs it. Silvi's eyes scattered across the fields, trying to find the other male, it was actually hard to see, due for the winds brushing across her face. "Damn.. it's so hard to see with all this wind screwing you over.." She muttered to herself with irritation.

As Silvestra's eyes kept rolling about, she saw some sort of whiteish/bright dot, with seemingly red designs from the distance, mainly near a tree in the fields. "Hey... hey... I think it's him!" She exclaimed, or at least she hoped. Silvi tried running up to/near the tree this "dot" was. But, as she tried to run, trying to keep pace for Aice if he decides to follow along Silvi's trail, it felt as if the wind was trying to pull her away. "H-Hey!" She called to the creature, guessing it was Jinsoku, near the tree. There were just so many questions and comments she wanted to make, not only directed to him, but also Aice, if they all meet.















 

[Jinsoku Akuma]

The rain continued to pelt down, Jinsoku memories now starting to fade away as his ears perked to the sound of footsteps in the rain. His eyes darted to his side; it was hard to see in the pouring rain but he could see two figures, he wasn’t quite sure it was Silvi and Aice, but he was almost certain it was them. Getting up off the tree, he would wait until they got closer. Over the pouring rain and thunder, it was hard to hear but he could make out the feint sounds of a girl’s voice yelling out. As the two figures got closer, Jinsoku could see them better now, it was indeed the two he had meet earlier. Raising his voice over the hammering rain and roar of the thunder, he would speak.

“Good. I’m glad you two could make it!! Follow me and lets get out of this rain!”

Hoping they heard him, Jinsoku turned around and headed past the marked tree, after a two-minute walk Jinsoku arrived in front of a small shabby built log house. The log house was behind two large boulders and thus was pretty hard to see if one wasn’t specifically looking for it. Jinsoku went up to the log cabin; everything was pretty simple except for the door entrance. There was a metal door and beside it was a scanner, Jinsoku lowered his head so the scanner could scan his full mask. After a few seconds of the scan, the scanner bleeped and the door swung open. Jinsoku then slowly entered the cabin, the rain and thunder being muffled pretty well once inside.

Inside the cabin, it looked pretty much like the outside. There were several cupboards that hung over a small metal sink, there were two rooms guarded by wooden doors, the main room of the house the three were already in, the den, a small fireplace sat against the left side of the room. A 7ft long couch sat in front of the fireplace and two rocking chairs sat beside the couch, one of each side. The floor’s, walls, and cupboards were a dark mahogany brown. Once they were all inside, Jinsoku slowly shut the metal door and once again spoke.

“There are some warm coats and blankets in the closet to the right. Feel free to use them to help dry your clothes faster. Theirs also some light snacks in the top cupboards if your feeling a little hungry. Now if you’ll excuse me I will be right back, I’m going to go change into something less wet…”

Jinsoku then disappeared behind the other door that of course led to his room. From the brief moment the door was opened, if one peered in they would see a line of dark colored clothes and several masks, some with the same markings as the Mask Jinsoku was currently wearing, others were marked differently but with the same colors. There was a small bed with black covers and a single gray pillow. Jinsoku shut the door and quickly changed into a new attire, he left his soaked mask and armored robes hanging on the wall, he would dry them out more thoroughly later. He opened the door and returned to the den, his eyes and most of his face hidden by the long black robe that covered him. After turning the fireplace on, he sat in one of the rocking chairs. Soon his lips moved to speak once more.

“I know you both are probably riddled with questions about me. So go on, ask. I will tell you as much as I can. Then I will ask some questions of my own.”

Jinsoku would then sit quietly while he waited for questions from the two. His face and body tuned into the crackling fire. It’s warm and light providing Jinsoku a serene feeling. For now he hoped, they were all safe.

[Aice]

Aice looked at the jacket that Sivli had offered him, as wet and as cold as he was he couldn't have her being like him as well, not only for her well being, but as it stood Aice couldn't put up a fight with anyone .If the group of Saiyan's caught up with them she would be the only that could do something about it. Aice passed against the offer,

"No--o-- you ke---eep it." Aice chattered through his teeth.

Not trying to make it sounds as pitiful as it did but he couldn't help it, trying to keep his mind off the cold he picked up his pace. With his senses dulled Silvi noticed the cloaked man before he did, if it wasn't for the cold of the rain Aice would have been more on guard but he just willing follow him up to the house. Quickly they caught up with the cloaked man, as he walked up to a metal door, he did something that Aice couldn't see from his view, shortly after the metal door opened for the group. Inviting them inside the two entered, Aice scanned the room quickly in case it really was a trap. The room wasn't as large as Aice thought it was going to be, and it was packed with all sorts of furniture.

"Man his house is nicer than mine."

The cloaked man mentioned about the blankets and coats in the closest and they more than welcome to use them to dry off, Aice shrugged off the offer. He still didn't trust than cloaked man, but he had no reason to consider him a threat, he grunted slightly at the offer. Telling them he was going to change the cloaked man walked off into another room, in the split second that the door was open Aice saw the contents of the room.

"Man what's with this guy, he's got all those suits like he's a fucking superhero."

Walking over to the fire place Aice sat down in front of it,even though it wasn't lit he was just glad to be able to sit in a warm room. Aice didn't much feel like talking right now, his teeth still chattering slightly. Not too long after the cloaked man left he re-entering the room wearing a long black robe with a hood, it covered his face from Aice. Turning on the fire place, the flames kicked to life shooting heat across Aice chilled  body. Grateful about the heat he smiled slightly, and then turned his attention back onto the fire.

"What the deal with all the masks and hood, how ugly can this guy be?"

Telling the two that he would like to ask them questions but they where more than welcome to ask theirs first, however Aice had nothing to say at the moment. In this case Aice would prefer to listen than to talk, he had little knowledge of this man.

"You can learn lot by just listening and watching. For once thing either this guy has good connections or he's a great thief, no way he just found a house this nice out here."

Aice nodded his head at the thought of asking him any questions, he didn't even want to come out here. They only reason he did was because of Silvi, so what ever question that were going to be asked where going to come from here. Closing his eyes again Aice listened quietly to the crackle of the flames, and the rain pelting the roof.
