Valdus had Addi swung over his shoulder as he rocketed through the sky at a accelerated pace. His gaze stared outwards as the woman spoke up. "Hey, I think I know where we are. Do you think you can land? I might be able to find somebody I know!" Valdus tilted his head in amusement as he just shrugged and shot down to the planet below. He landed in an opening, a meadow of some kind. He planted Addison on the floor on her own two feet as he looked around, his leather jacket swaying in the calm breeze that blew through. "It has been some time since I've been this far out, the mountains...I know someone who lives here too...a kind man, a good man." Valdus looked over to Addi and tilted his head. "So, who is it you know out here exactly? Looks pretty deserted to me." Valdus asked with an inquisitive stare upon his face. Addison looked around, she was trying to get her bearings. She did a quarter turn and then pointed straight ahead. "This way! I know it has to be this way!" Addi proclaimed as Valdus just shrugged and then the two began to saunter through a lush forest. The trees were thick upon the landscape, Valdus casually looked about as he admired the beauty of the foliage. "I didn't really get a chance to thank you for what you did back there. I appreciate you saving my life. I knew I saw somebody out of the corner of my eye, so I though whistling was the best thing I could do to get your attention. Luckily for me, you were there to help and not hurt me." Addi said to Valdus as they casually strode. The Maylon chuckled briefly as he wiped his mouth with his gloved hand. "It's all in a days work my lady. It would have been rude of me to leave you at the mercy of that beast. I think it would be beneficial to us all on this planet if you were to continue being in it. So I had no issues with saving you." Valdus quipped back. The two continued to walk for some time, seemed like hours just casually strolling and sharing a conversation. Valdus' cyan eyes kept a focus on the road ahead, keeping his sights out for any and all who would try to approach and attempt to cause harm. WC: 406 |

There were not many who would stroll through the forests that decorated Mount Paozu's landscape. Legends of monsters and demons who resides within kept the general populace away and thus, it was one of the few places left relatively untouched by man. Only the bravest of souls took to wandering within the forest and some did not ever return, myths telling that the adventurers had been led astray or worse. As Dr. Addison and the Maylon noble continued their casual stroll, the sudden sound of plant life being rustled was heard. Along with that came the sound of approaching footsteps, each second making them grow louder. Something was headed towards them at a high pace but from which direction, it was unknown. From the growing noises, they could hear low growls and the footsteps were heavier, the crackling of branches and twigs becoming more evident. Just as the suspense grew to its peak, a brown bear would fly out from the flora with some sort of red haired feral creature latched onto it. Of course, upon better inspection, the two would see it was a small child who had managed to chase the bear down and ultimately tackle onto it. "Haha! I finally got ya! I win!" The pint sized martial artist smiled happily as he wrapped his arms around the much larger bear's waist and lifted it up. "Okay, I'll let you have a two minute head start this t-" The boy would pause his sentence halfway before looking and seeing the familiar blonde doctor standing with a taller man. "Dr. Addi!" He would announce cheerfully, walking over to them with the bear still in his grasp, like a teddy. "Whatcha doin all the way out here? Is this your new boyfriend?" He would whisper in a less than silent tone as he saw Valdus. WC: 304 |

Valdus lifted up his hand to fire off a powerful beam of energy to dispose of the bear. He figured hey, why not? What's bear taste like? He didn't know, why not find out. Fortunately he stopped when he saw a small jump out and glomp the bear, then manhandle it like it didn't weigh anything. Valdus knew in that instant that the boy carried gifts far exceeding just his appearance. Valdus took note of this as he watched the child walk on over, seeming to know this Addison woman. He referred to her as a doctor though, this was something Valdus hadn't been aware of before. Valdus arched a brow as the boy asked if he was Addison's boyfriend, he hadn't even thought of her in that context. He didn't go around saving damsels in distress and expect them to just automatically engage in a relationship. He didn't seek out the salvation of others for his own personal gains, he was a noble through and through, very pure indeed. Addison on the other hand was a very young and got very abrasive when she got embarrassed. Which happened a lot at some of the easiest things imaginable. "He's not my boyfriend Nexon!" ![]() Addi boomed out in a loud voice as she shook her fist. She sighed, and then cleared her throat. "This is Valdus, Nexon. He rescued me and now we're trying to find a safe place for me to lay low for a few days. You know, for my safety and all that. But speaking of safety, what are you doing out here all by yourself? Where's your brother, Lagi? Where's... she hesitated for a moment, and then let it out. "Where's...Gohan? she asked, a sense of sorrow in her voice a little. Aw, poor little Addi. Valdus noticed the somber tone things had taken and scratched the back of his head. "Mighty fine strength you have there, lad! You'll grow to be a fine warrior!" Valdus said, it was better than asking how much a polar bear weighed. You don't know how much? Enough to break the ice. WC: 351 Edited by Valdus, Mar 14 2016, 01:10 AM.

Addison's booming tone was enough to cause the bear in Nexon's arms to flail in fear and run off into the forest. The crimson haired boy laughed softly, patting his hair down and fixing himself up as leaves, twigs and even dirt clung to his white clothes. Addison was still the same as ever, somehow the doctor seemed to run into really strong and good looking guys. "Oh, he saved you? What'd you do this time Dr. Addi?" Nexon joked as he rubbed the back of his head. Before he could get an answer, the blonde haired woman inquired about the location of Gohan. Although he had met the present timeline one, he assumed she was asking about the more serious Gohan. "Oh, sensei told me he had to go back home. He said I wouldn't be able to follow since it might change everything. Whatever that means." Nexon remembered the last time he spoke with the one armed Saiyan, he was sad to have to go. No matter how hard he tried, Nexon couldn't find either him or Lagi, the two seemed to vanish. "Yeah and I don't know where Lagi went, I've been on my own for a while." He laughed softly though didn't seem particularly sad about being virtually abandoned. Gohan had taught him how to survive in the wilderness and now, Nexon was more confident because of it. He would wipe his mouth on the sleeve of his shirt before looking up to the much taller Valdus who approached him. The Maylon noble complimented the pint-sized fighter on his strength, explaining that he would grow to be a powerful warrior. "Thanks tall guy!" Nexon spoke out, having almost immediately forgotten the name of the noble, he was bad with names but eventually he would get it down after hearing it a few dozen times. "I'm out here just surviving like sensei Gohan taught me! I've gotten really good at hunting and everything!" The boy's face was messy and he didn't smell particularly good because he hadn't showered in a while. On top of that, he looked like he belonged in a pack of wolves, he wasn't feral and still knew how to speak which was good enough. "Oh, you're trying to find a safe place? Sensei's house is still at the top of the mountain if you want to go there. The forest is a really good hiding spot too, though it's not that safe at night time." |

As Nexon unfolded a story of sadness, heartbreak and very obvious child neglect, Addi's heart couldn't help but weep from the inside out. Tears streamed down her face as she couldn't help but feel the overwhelming sense of sadness wash over her entire being. She couldn't believe that someone from her past, someone she had cared so deeply about was being treated in such a way. Abandoned by his mentor, lost from his mentor in an never ending struggle to live and survive in the wilderness on his lonesome. Addi couldn't help but feel empathy, he was in a struggle all of his own while she was out doing the same. Addison slowly crept over to Nexon, her head hung low between her shoulders. Valdus' mouth opened slighty as he was curious to see where this went, the sad story tugging on his heart strings as well. Addison quickly wrapped her arms around Nexon's shoulders and then she knelt down, wrapping him in an embrace. He was in the arms of an angel now. Addi couldn't help but cry as she felt somewhat responsible for this, if she hadn't of left, perhaps there would have been at least someone to take care of him. "I'm so sorry for leaving Nexy. I didn't mean to. I thought leaving you guy's behind would protect you from the harms that were after me, didn't realize you would go and find something like this instead. For that, I apologize." Addi said as she pulled Nexon in close and hugged the little pipsqueak. She did this for several moments, before snorting and promptly standing up. She waved her hand in front of her face as she let out a loud exhale. "Something tells me you've been skipping bath time for awhile now, Nexon." Yay! Humor! That was always a sign of good times, Valdus thought. He wiped his nose as he watched the two reconnect. "You know, if the two of you are looking for a place to stay...I have this location out in The Devil's Hand. It's not the brightest of locations, but it is quite roomy." Valdus inquired, hoping he could offer some relief for those who were in need. Addison turned around to face Valdus, tilting her head with a curious stare. "Well I'd hate to impose, but I would feel better if Nexon had a roof to put over his head. He deserves that much." WC: 404 TWC: 1161 |

Nexon was really confused as Addison seemed to start crying, he was a little uneasy as the woman approached and suddenly hugged him. He blinked slightly as he stood there and Addison weeped on his shoulder, making him a bit uncomfortable but it seemed that Nexon didn't quite understand the situation. He had been travelling with Lagi for so long that camping outdoors and surviving seemed almost natural. That coupled with the survival training from Gohan, well this was where Nexon was most comfortable. The blonde haired woman would suddenly jolt up and pinch her nose, waving the air before him and exclaiming that it was obvious Nexon hadn't bathed in a while. "Well of course not! I didn't want the animals the smell me so I had to smell like one of them!" He would laugh softly, giving himself a sniff though not seeming bothered by the stench of himself. Then Valdus brought up that he had a place where both Nexon and Addison could stay with him, the crimson haired boy thought about it for a moment but figured it was better to stick with people. Addison seemed keen on the idea as well, wanting to get Nexon a place though he wasn't sure why she was so worried about him. He was a strong martial artist and was quite capable but he didn't mind having someone take his best interests into mind. The boy nodded his head in agreement, if there was a good place he could sleep, he would definitely follow. Bringing his hands to his lips, Nexon would let out a loud whistle before a loud roar caused every bird in the forest to fly into the air. The sound of heavy footsteps approaching was heard until from the thick bush, a massive carnivorous dinosaur peered through, dipping its head low so that it's snout sniffed Nexon and the group. The pipsqueak would run over, placing a hand on it's snout before the gigantic beast let out a low rumble. "Sorry Tiny, I have to go. Make sure to watch out for yourself, I'll be back soon!" He would place his cheek against the much larger animal's large maw, giving it an affectionate nuzzle before the creature did the same. Before long, the large dinosaur would have stormed back into the forest, leaving quite a large trail since it knocked over every tree in its path. "Okay! Let's go!" He would smile cheerfully, looking to Addison and Valdus. WC: 412 TWC: 1125 Edited by Nexon, Mar 14 2016, 06:41 PM.

Valdus nods as he tries to get his bearings. He looks in several directions, trying to get his geography right. He didn't want to blast off in one direction and end up having to make a U-Turn or something. Valdus felt he got his directions mapped out in his head as he holds his hand out to Addison. "Your chariot awaits." Valdus proclaimed in a tone so noble Silverbolt from Beast Wars would blush. Addison went to take his hand when the sound of the Earth quaking beneath them startled the two. Valdus reached to his hip, grabbing the hilt of his sword, swinging it off his belt and extends the blade after channeling his ki into the sword. ![]() "Uh huah huah huah! The trail ends here. We'll be taking back our doctor now." The obscenely large Bio-Android beast exclaimed as he waved his hand at them. Valdus stood tall as he stared straight on at the large behemoth. "So I'm assuming you're not a friend. If you want to take the lady you'll have to go through me." Valdus exclaimed as he brandished his sword high above his head. His stern cyan eyes were locked on his target straight ahead. Addison shrieked as she still wasn't used to seeing big giant monsters leap out at her. Valdus stomped forward as the two collided, Valdus' blade bouncing straight off the horn of the beast. Valdus checked the temper of his blade, making sure there was no damage from the collision. The giant beast thumbs his horn and chuckles. "Nice try fleshie, but I'm made of stronger mettle. You're doomed! Valdus shrugged, he wasn't too impressed with a simple deflection. "Interesting, but merely a setback. I'm sure there's more than one way to skin a giant gremlin like you!" Valdus exclaims as he readies himself into position. The giant beast stomps on the ground, causing a fissure in the ground below that traveled straight through the earth towards Addison! The crack in the ground split between her feet as she let out an "eek!" and then leaped out of the way. Trying to avoid any harm, Addi fell down on her knees and cupped her hands over her head. Valdus turned his attention to the fallen woman as he pointed at her. "Nexon! Get Addison to safety! I'll handle this fiend!" Valdus yelled out as he put himself into a offensive position, ready to battle the beast! WC: 407 TWC:1568 |

"Let's go!" The words pierced Lagi's unconscious mind, ripping him from what was a nightmare and bringing him back to the world of the living. He had been spending a good bit of time here on Mount Paozu, meditating and training as Goku had instructed. The man told Lagi he needed to do some other things before he was ready to start training Lagi, and he respected the man's wishes. Though, that didn't mean Lagi wasn't going to do his own thing in the meantime, right? It wouldn't make sense for him to put his life on hold. However, as things happen, life can do such crazy things with the simplest of gestures. Lagi was sleeping, late into the day because he was up all night taking care of some business. He'd finally tracked down the man who'd poisoned him, and exposed his devilish plot to the police. For the crime, Lagi suspected no more than life without parol, for the premeditated murder and poisoning of someone the Law Enforcement officers consider one of their own. His testimony was not necessary, as the police got a full confession out of the man already. Lagi was free to close that chapter in his life, but he knew that this meant he'd have nothing to distract him from worrying about Nexon. Even after he'd gotten back to Mt. Paozu, he had already started pacing mentally, running through possibilities, and hoping for the best, but preparing for the worst. The worst being a few outcomes, either he'd been kidnapped or killed. Thankfully, because of his brother's strength and inate innocence which always seemed to get him out of trouble, Lagi could pretty much rule out him being dead. As soon as Lagi didn't wake up, Nexon probably got impatient and tried to go back home with mom and dad. However, being in the middle of nowhere, he probably got lost on the way, and could be anywhere by now. However, as Lagi was shaken awake, he did not know the cause for this. He was covered in a cold sweat, as he nightmares were of course about his brothers fate. He was dreaming that he'd just discovered the Red Ribbon Army had kidnapped him, and had no intention of releasing him. They were going to turn him into an android, and make Lagi watch via a video feed. However, someone's voice in the distance brought Lagi out of it, and he was thankful. However, as he gave a quick look around, he saw no immediate source for the noise. He was perched up in a tree, about fifteen feet off the ground as to not to be disturbed by animals in the night. He looked above, below, and all around, but nothing. He took a moment and gave a quick yawn as he dropped down off the branch, landing pretty hardily on the ground. As he did, he wiped his eyes and looked around some more, his senses coming back to him. He knew he wasn't hearing things, he heard a voice. He tried hard to sense whoever it was, and when he did his heart began to beat wildly. He sensed a stranger, but with him were two powers he recognized. The one of the lovely Dr. Addison, and the other to none other than his own brother, Nexon! A moment is all it took for Lagi to register these powers, and what it meant. A grin plastered itself across Lagi's face, and tears rolled down his face. With a burst of glee and ki, Lagi exploded into the air, streaming right towards the three of them. He was so overcome with excitement, that he almost forgot to stop. He scooped up Nexon with both arms and hug him tight. "Nexon don't you ever leave me again! I promise that is the last time I get poisoned by some big bad guy! I missed you so much, I didn't know what I was going to do without you! I started going crazy!" Lagi tried to frantically explain, all the while smothering his brother with a decades worth of love and affection. It took a second for Lagi to open his eyes and see the scene before him. "Oh, hey Dr. Addison." Lagi said with a blush, "You're looking as pretty as ever." He said not realizing that he was actually saying and he closed his mouth, covering it with a hand. "Err, what I mean is... uhhh..." He pointed at the monsterous beast that he assumed was putting them in some sort of peril, because the third man in the group was readying his sword at them. "Hey, look, a monster!" He quickly and very uncharacteristically tried to distract her as he too brandished his sword. "So, what's the deal here, we got a bug problem or what?" Lagi asked, quickly entering the fray, totally trying to just shrug off everything that happened. He knew he had more explaining to do, but right now it seemed they had some more trouble than Lagi's poisoning, didn't they?

Nexon was about to take a step when suddenly he felt himself be lifted off of the ground and carried by someone. A familiar voice ran through the air and the crimson haired boy blinked as he looked up to see his older brother whom seemed to materialize out of nowhere. There was a slight pause as he looked up at Lagi, Nexon extended his arm out forward and patted both sides of his cheeks. "Oh. You're real!" Like a facehugger, Nexon would latch onto Lagi's face with his entire body, squeezing him in a joyful hug as he had not seen his older brother in a long time. Nexon laughed happily as he thought Lagi was just a vision or some sort of recreation from his imagination but no, it was the real deal. There was a ton of things he was going to ask but before he could Lagi rambled on about being poisoned and then the ground beneath them rumbled. A large monster came up from beneath the ground and attacked Valdus, claiming that he was there to retrieve Addison. The crimson haired hybrid tilted his head, he wasn't sure what she had done but if there was a bunch of guys like this coming to take her back, he wasn't blaming her for running away. Valdus and the beast clashed, Valdus blocking the strike with his blade and telling Nexon to take the blonde haired woman to safety. With that in mind, the boy would un-latch from Lagi's face and flip to the ground before running to Addison and picking her up over his head. "Okay! You two hurry up and deal with him. Let's go Dr. Addi!" Nexon would take off into the air, a burst of ki exploding around him though he made sure to keep a good grip on Addison so she couldn't fall off. WC: 310 TWC: 1435 |

"You'll have your time to gush over the lady later, when we make sure she survives!" Valdus yells at the newly arrived Lagi. He didn't know how his luck ended up this way, but the pair of red headed scamps were at least proving useful. With the tall one offer his assistance and the far younger one giving aid by getting Addison out of harm's way. Addi gave Lagi a wave, not having much time to give a proper reintroduction as Nexon was quick to hustle her out of there. "Alright, let's see if you fight as good as you flirt, lover boy." Valdus quipped as he swung his sword over his head, giving it a few twirls before readying it into an attack position. The large Bio-Android let out a snarl as it snorted through it's large nostrils, kicking up the ground below him as he charged straight forward at the two warriors, looking to rend flesh and trample his opposition. What on Earth would Valdus and Lagi do to tame this beast!? Meanwhile as Addison was being whisked away by Nexon, Addi couldn't help but feel like perhaps there was some assistance they could be providing. "Do you think Mr. Valdus and your brother can handle this? Addi wondered to the much smaller Nexon who carried her overhead. She scratched the side of her cheek as she looked around from how high up they were. "Don't you think we should stick close by in case they need help?" Danger! Danger Nexy Nex! WC: 255 TWC: 1823 |
