Invites to Contagion , Dr. Breech , neahLocation: Frozen North, Mountains PL: 4335
After his encounter with the Saiyans, the Bio-Android decided that it would be far more productive to keep a low profile for the time being. That many high powered beings in the vicinity made his logic and self-preservation algorithms do backflips... if genetic sequences and electrical signals could perform backflips. What was even more infuriating was that for a brief moment he could locate energy signatures but now found himself unable to. It was possible that the ability only briefly surfaced as an extension of predatory instinct, but out here in this frozen wilderness, it was galling to consider himself blind to the presence of others around him. It would make locating his own personal training lair that much more difficult without a beacon from which to work from as a point of reference. He didn't dare use any of the local terrain for referencing, as during any form of combat scenario terrain remaining intact was a statistical improbability. What intrigued him however was the mention of other Bio-Androids such as himself roaming the world. The idea that there was another being out there that was similar to himself... it caused a stir within Zyajin's being. What were they like? Who created them? How long had they existed? Where were they? Zyajin paused that train of thought before it could derail him further. "Perhaps consuming all those humans was not a good idea... it seems their innate curiosity is affecting me..." he mused aloud, thinking back to before his bout with the demon human hybrid, and considering the new species he now had access to. The infernal powers the angsty teenager wielded were now open to him, and Ryuga's hybrid genetics would allow the Bio-Android far greater ease to assimilate any pure bred demon DNA into his own genetic structure. The idea that another realm was open to him beyond mere planets... if he could just access it, or at least track down any stray demons that had escaped that domain and into Earth's... And here we were back to square one. Finding a location to have the peace to train and increase his power within... where in this frozen wasteland could he get the seclusion he sought for?

An ivory ooze snaked and slithered it's way along the frozen woods. The amorphous entity wriggled and bubbled as it made it's way forward. Every now and then a cluster of beady black eyes would rip out of it, all of them narrowing before being consumed by the gelatinous glob it spawned from. Maws with crooked, gnarled teeth would tear out the flesh to let out a vibrating exhale or a sharp hiss. The erratic, swift, movements preformed by the mostly featureless blob made it look as if it were:... Angry... The writhing mass of thick, white, liquid flesh was moving without purpose or direction. It was just snaking it's way through the denser part of the wilderness before a defined figure stepped out of it while simultaneously drawing the blob into it's flesh. Heavy steps cracked the ice beneath it as the being known as Contagion stalked forward. His void like eyes tore open all over as he finished taking shape, the gaping maw on his torso roared out sending mucus and spittle falling unto the snow around it. The vaguely zoanthrope looking creature bat aside a tree with it's arm causing it to splinter at the base. A bladed tendril ripped from his back and swatted at another as he trudged through the snow his mouths snarling and snapping at the frigid air. "How could I let such WORTHLESS prey SLIP from my grasp!" His telepathic voice boomed out as his maws continued to hiss and snarl in his fury. "I HAD THEM! IF THAT DAMN ARCOSIAN DIDN'T SHOW UP I WOULD HAVE DEVOURED THEM ALL!" He punched another tree causing it's trunk to crack and split. "Curse theeeemmmm CURSE THEM ALL!!! CURSE THEM AND THIS FLAWED IMPERFECT FORM! SITHIS WAS A FAILURE AND A FRAUD FOR GIVING ME SUCH A PATHETIC HOST!" He cried out shifting the blame of his failure from person to person. In his furious tantrum he didn't even realize that there was another power nearby. Not that he'd care. If anything it could be something to take this built up anger out on. Or, perhaps it could be something that would prove to be far more beneficial than a punching bag... Only time would tell

[Appearance here is directly after Weak but Willing, as such, PL is still 16,204] The mechanized doctor flew through the frigid skies of the north with something akin to fury boiling deep within him. He was infuriated that he had to not only activate his OverDrive function to achieve dominance over a single Saiyan, but he also had to flee the scene shortly after! There were few times Breech had to make an escape, and his encounter with Arlic was another one added to the list. He seethed with fury, but soon enough his artificial rage was quelled as his search finally bore fruit. His escape route wasn't simply to leave the city behind; he planned on tailing that strange Bio-Mechanical creature who had ties to Sithis. It's Ki signature was easy enough to lock on to, though it did fluctuate wildly at times, making it hard to keep a full bead on. The slimy being moved its furious rampage into the dense frozen forest. Not wanting to lose his potential ally, Breech descended from the skies, following the creature on foot. Sithis' creature began taking a more sensible shape as it slowed its movements. The creature was absolutely enraged, more so than Breech was moments ago! It let out a telepathic bellow of anger, berating itself for its lack of power. "Look on the bright side, Child of Sithis. At least you weren't forced into using your maximum power to deal with a Saiyan who shouldn't have even been a threat!"The doctor revealed himself from behind a tree, his cylindrical hat still absent, leaving his brain case on full-display. Breech continued speaking as he advanced towards the creature, his blue eyes occasionally flashing crimson as his internal scouter did a quick scan of the area. "You did well enough for what I can only assume was your first battle against real opponents. The only reason you lost your bout was that odd flash of power the female had; without it, the battle was well within your grasp."His scouter picked up on another Power Level nearby. It wasn't dangerous, but it was certainly abnormally high. He'd keep quiet on the matter for now, assuming the owner to simply be an observer.

Zyajin blinked as he heard and yet not heard something at the same time in the nearby distance. His auditory systems were functioning perfectly, and yet they hadn't detected the sound and yet not sound that he had heard within his mind. The name Sithis had been mentioned and that stirred something in his genetic memory... and so, curious as to the source of this telepathic outburst, the Bio-Android went to investigate.
He soon came across the source, some form of amorphous white animalistic being, as well as something that resembled a human. After his encounter with Ryuga, he wasn't quite beyond the possibility that one or both of them, although the white creature was more likely to be, were demonic entities. When he looked upon the more human looking being however, there was a faint twinge in his mind... almost as if something about him was... familiar.
He looked back at the animalistic creature, trying to evaluate how much stronger or weaker than himself it was. He hadn't fully processed the demonic DNA that he'd collected from Ryuga, so his own power levels were still below the ideal marker he'd set for himself. Caution would seem to be the logical course of action in this time and place... especially after his run in with the Saiyans earlier.
Speaking of... "Saiyans are indeed quite the annoyance on this world. Pure or otherwise." he said, announcing his presence, looking between the two of them. If the situation escalated into a fight, he was more than prepared to fire a ranged attack at full power before using it as cover to make his escape. Even with Namekian regenerative capabilities at his disposal, he did not feel like taxing them too far. "I am Weapon's Project: Z-J 25051991, but I prefer Zyajin... you seem familiar for some reason." he said as he looked at the more human of the pair, deciding that caution here also required being blunt and honest.

Contagion slowly turned his head to glance back at Breech as he approached, his numerous eyes narrowing in on the doctor as he approached from behind. The way the congealed, milky, mixture of blood and flesh stood would easily display his agitation. His large fists were clenched tight enough that they were practically trembling. The bladed tendril dangerously whipped around like the annoyed tail of a cat or a dangerous stinger of a scorpion. He was about to retort to Breech's commentary on his fight but something unexpected caught his attention.
A strange power, unlike any he had sensed before, appeared suddenly. Contagion blinked, shifting his attention from Breech to this newcomer right as he arrived. It was a strange creature, with an even stranger power. Perhaps it was an alien of some sort? No... That didn't seem right. Sithis certainly would have had some knowledge of the creature...Or was this just another one of his failings?
Regardless, the way the creature seemed to sway into the conversation infuriated the already irritated amalgam.
"The saiyans are nothing! The very notion that they might be the least bit troublesome is a laugh!" His voice rasped through a telepathic pulse as the series of eyes glared at the other bio android. As he watched the creature shift into a defensive stance he would get into an offensive one. The gaping maw on his chest gnashed it's jagged teeth, the dangerous clack of a predator's jaws filled the air as the mouth snapped and hissed in his frustrations. It seemed as if Contagion was prepared to lash out at the slightest provocation.
"Those pathetic excuses for fighters are MY PREY! PREY does not have the right to fight against Obvious Superiority! A product of war such as yourself should understand that they can bleed just as much as any other foe."

It was surprising that the creature revealed itself so willingly. Something with a Ki signature that fluctuated so wildly was most likely a construct similar to Contagion. The creature, after giving its opinion on Saiyan's, introduced itself as Zyajin. Breech nodded towards the creature, introducing himself after the creatures mention of the doctors apparent familiarity. "Greetings Zyajin. My name is Doctor Breech Aris, perhaps you or your creators have heard of me before?"
Before he could continue, Contagion interrupted with a psychic burst, assaulting his senses with his angered voice. Breech turned to the gooey beast and responded in his usual cold tone. "I suppose you've got a point, but you cannot deny that Saiyan's are quite resilient. They won't go down until they've caused you as much trouble as they possibly can." He let out a chuckle as he continued "Besides, wasn't it a human giving you trouble? I don't think you've become strong enough just yet to call anyone prey."
The doctor turned back to Zyajin, a curious look appearing on his face. "Z-J 25051991... I could swear I've heard that code before. Tell me, who created you, Zyajin? Did they ever mention a man named Doctor Beekah?"

"Ultimately they may be nothing compared to us," said Zyajin, attempting to ease the temper of this strange telepathic creature, "But the Saiyans do have that unfortunate habit of becoming much stronger after a battle in which they did not die." he said with a shrug. He listened to the creature roar some more before shrugging. "Corner any form of biological life-form and it will retaliate, whether it is prey or not. Even a wounded rat will try to fight back against a tiger should it find no way to escape its fate." the Bio-Android remarked to his counter-part.
He turned his attention to the humanoid who'd introduced himself as a Doctor Breech Aris. Zyajin tilted his head slightly as he went through his memories and programming. "Your name does sound vaguely familiar but I cannot place it." he mused, crossing his arms as he considered the situation before him. It was the last name that caused the Bio-Android to blink. "Doctor Beekah... yes. That was the name of the lead scientist I believe inherent to my creation... I think... Sifting through my own memories in conjunction with those of the surviving research team I consumed is somewhat irksome... but it does sound familiar to me yes." he said rubbing his chin in thought.
"Was he an elderly looking male, balding with a greying beard which had been fashioned into an elongated goatee?" he inquired of Dr Breech, trying to put a face to the name that was now giving him a headache trying to ascertain the identity of.

Contagion glared at the two as they spoke among themselves. Their words, while damaging to his pride, were true. Despite his haughty declaration he couldn't deny the potency of the exponential growth of the saiyan's and the threats associated with it. As far as he could tell he did not benefit from the Saiyan's 'zenkai' ability. Sithis could only procure a bastard's blood to feed him during his infancy. That was a... Regrettable shortcoming. Taking a moment to stop and calm down; the amalgam would close it's eyes in deep contemplation. Things had been making interesting turns as of late: his escape, the saiyan invasion, and now meeting this strange newcomer. He could tell that this living 'weapon' that was created by Doctor Beekah was like him. Even if he didn't outright say it, Zyajin's strange mixed ki signature made Contagion certain that they were both 'created' utilizing other races as building blocks. He had certainly been augmented to be perfect. Breech, having created his body himself, was in a similar situation. They were all created to be flawless yet they were all bested in some form or another. On paper it made no sense. With the gears turning in his mind: the Zoanthrope looking creature would open his eyes, refocusing on the two before him. "The name seems familiar to me as well...I'm sure of it, Sithis spoke with this 'Beekah' at some point predating my discovery and augmentation." He chimed in, his violent tone and stance absent. "Regardless of your origin, might I comment that it seems...Crazy... For all of us to meet here. Though...It could be a favorable turn of events. From your comments, Zyajin, you seem to think...Well, to think like...Me..." His voice, came out like a deadly whisper as he took a step forward. His arms hung limp at his sides as he twisted his head so his attention was on the other bio android. "Tell me... Z-J 25051991...If I may ask." "What is your purpose exactly?"

It was interesting to know that Beekah got around so much. Knowing he was involved with one of the two amalgams wouldn't be surprising; but both of them? It was like fate! Beekah wasn't exactly the most public about his projects, so perhaps he really did have something to do with the creation of both of these creatures independently. "Yes, that's how Beekah looks, but he may not have been the lead scientist, as he's still very much alive. This is very interesting... Interesting indeed. Beekah was an old friend of mine. Without his help I would not be standing here today. I still need to pay him a visit to thank him for all the help he's given me, but he's been keeping his tracks well-hidden. I presume I may not be the only one looking for him."
Contagion began speaking, but his fury was gone. He seemed interested in the origin and purpose of Zyajin. Breech was also a bit curious, so he simply waited to hear the constructs answer.

Zyajin took in this information from Doctor Breech and analysed it before shrugging. "Perhaps he was my Project instigator then as opposed to lead scientist. The terms can become somewhat intermingled at times I think." he suggested, pondering briefly if this Beekah would have some knowledge in regards to the Final Input Code that bound his will to that of another's... and how best to remove this design error.
When Contagion spoke, he found this information curious indeed... and drew some concern from it. Doctor Beekah had a hand in both of our creations, directly or not. This cannot be a coincidence. His mind wandered back to the Final Input Code and found some new trouble with the programming. Could this Beekah be intending to utilise himself and Contagion as his own living weapons? Did his... cousin for lack of a better term, share the same genetic programming as himself? The more he listened, the more questions arose within his mind. Questions that gave him much to consider.
But that was for a moment in the future, for now though he was being questioned by Contagion. "I am currently uncertain despite my programming suggesting otherwise." he answered, deciding that some elaboration was required. "Some two decades ago, the Earth government of the time decided to embark upon a secret weapons project to be utilised against the Solar Saiyan and Arcosian Empires should they ever turn their gaze towards Earth. Hence my existence." he informed the pair of them. "However, in the final stages of my development, the Saiyans invaded, and one of their units discovered and infiltrated the bunker I was being created in... and altered the Final Input Code." he said, chuckling slightly.
"The Earth government feared that I would perhaps turn against them, and so had their scientists embed into my genetic coding what they believed would ensure my loyalty and subservience to them... the Final Input Code to ensure this, was originally designed so that I would obey without question nor hesitation whomever was in charge of Earth's government at the time." the Bio-Android regaled the humanoid and zenothrope amalgamation. "The Saiyans altered that to their Empress... however, what they did not realise was that only her own verbal commands can compel me to fulfill the Final Code. That error cost them."
He remained silent to let the information sink in first. "I doubt the Final Code will be implemented given how the invasion ended... but it's something I still wish to erase." he said, his hands gripping into fists. "I am a living weapon, but I will choose where I am unleashed, not someone else." he snarled, his eyes flashing briefly with power as the Bio-Android spoke.

The creature canted it 's head to the side as it listened to the other creature speak. "So, you were created to be subservient to these humans? Or rather, you were created to be some sort of guardian...A sort of plan B should the great Blue Banner Army falter." He spoke with an added venom as he uttered the irksome organizations name. His previous dealings with them left a foul taste that still lingered in his numerous mouths. His didn't allow himself to linger on bitter thoughts however, he kept his attention transfixed on Zyajin. He thought carefully on what was said beforehand before continuing.
"How...Noble... Of Beekah to make such a tool for the worthless prey of this world to use." He said as he tried to sort through Sithis' memories of the man. "It seems that if it hadn't been for those saiyans you would have been shackled to that predestined role of 'defender'. Though they merely just changed who was holding the chain didn't they?." He mused shaking his head at the thought.
"Meanwhile... There are no chains that shackle me. I wasn't created by earthlings and their machines. They didn't program who I am or determine my purpose. I can recall being spawned by some demonic entity long ago only to be sealed away." He said thinking back to his earliest days as a featureless sludge contained in that demonic prison. "Most of my earliest memories, however, are of Sithis feeding me while I slowly gained strength... I was his pet project, I used his fascination with demonology as a means to bend his will with my telepathy. Eventually, I took him as my base." He explained, outstretching his arms as if presenting himself.
As he finished explaining his origins he turned his attention to Breech. "Now that we have shared, perhaps you would be so kind in revealing your own history doctor. Even after digging through all of Sithis ' memories I cannot find any trace of you being a fighter of any sort. How is it that a feeble looking human was able to stand toe to toe with a saiyan in his prime?" He asked turning to face the old android. "Judging by that casing atop your head however I'd wager you're more than you seem doctor."

It was interesting to hear the tale of the two creatures. While Zyajin was manufactured for a righteous cause, Contagion was originally some type of sludge-like demon. Sithis didn't seem the gullible type, so this creature being able to telepathically seduce the professor into willingly being absorbed was quite the feat. Breech would have to keep an intensely close eye on the slimy thing. Of course, seeing as the other two had revealed a bit about themselves, it seemed they were curious to the doctors origins as well. The goopy bio-android pointed out Breeches brain case, which made the doctor chuckle lightly. "Yes, I suppose you are correct. I am no mere human... I am an android. This body is a recreation of my organic form before I was slain." He tapped his right index finger on the glass of his cranium a couple times before continuing. "The grey matter you see floating in Rejuvination Fluids is the only thing left of my organic body. I was forced to turn myself into a machine due to an experiment gone wrong..."For a moment, the doctor lost himself in thought, remembering the fateful moment that changed his life drastically.
An aged scientist sits in his lab, hidden away in the mountains. He stares intently at a very large tube, containing a floating body of some kind. He stands from his chair, but his whole body is shaking in anticipation. In just a few moments, he would begin the process to revive his dear wife, who had been taken from him due to an incurable virus. Despite success nearly within his grasp, he couldn't help but feel worry. What if this failed? This reanimation process only had a small chance to succeed; if it failed, how would his wife ever return to the living? Even if it did work, would it still be the same woman he loved? What if the reanimation changed her personality or her memories. He couldn't bear to think of this failing, so he simply shook off the possibility.Dr. Breech slowly approached a large lever. Each moment felt like an eternity as he neared the thing that would return his love to him. He loomed over the lever, his face filled with worry. He shut his eyes, and pulled the lever back...-CLUNK-
-BOOM- A bright flash of light escapes the tube as the lever is pulled; a grim sign. Soon after, the tube explodes violently, sending the doctor crashing into the opposite wall of the lab. What's left of his body is wracked with pain as he yells out for the one thing that can keep him from eternal rest. "G-golm! Activate protocol 15..." Before he could fully finish, he was already unconscious from the blood-loss.
Dr. Breech shook his head, attempting to ignore the terrible memory as it continued to play back in his head. He would never forget his failure there; his own body was a permanent testament to his failing. He looked at Contagion, anger clear in his voice as he spoke. "Perhaps if I had spent more time working on my robotic form, I would have been able to destroy that pesky Arcosian fool!"
The doctor turned his head, looking off into the distance for a moment. He needed to get back to the lab soon to store the data he'd collected so that he could study it properly. Before that however, a thought bubbled to the front of his mind. It was clear he needed more time before he could truly unlock the full powers of his technological advancements, but perhaps in the meantime these two creatures could assist him in some way.
He turned back to the duo of amalgams, a quizzical look on his face as he spoke. "Well... Seeing as we're all here, why don't we work with one another? We all need to attain greater strength in some form or another to reach our goals; if we keep close, perhaps that strength will be found sooner than we think."

The Bio-Android listened to his counterparts retell their own origins, one of them being a demonic spawn mutated with other genetic materials, the other a brain in a jar attached to a body. It was quite the odd little grouping they had here together, all with a single common denominator, this Doctor Beekah. It was when Dr Breech suggested that they worked together to obtain their ultimate powers and goals that Zyajin shrugged.
"Perhaps so. I intend to head for the North of this world and construct myself a facility in which to improve myself in relative piece, without any intervention from the "locals", as I think we are all agreed, they are a source of frustration." he informed the duo, the ideas already streaming through his mind as he considered what would be implemented within it. "With the recent invasion by the Saiyan Empire, I believe it to be the ideal time to obtain several components of technology that would improve the rate of increasing power. They would simply assume they had been destroyed by the invading army." deduced the Bio-Android.

"Zyajin I feel the good doctor is on to something. It seems wasteful that a being of your caliber would stow themselves away to work in private." The ivory bio-mass cooed with his telekinetic voice as it slunk towards him. It's numerous black, void-like eyes stared into the off colored eyes of the bio weapon as he continued. "We three are the results of man asking what is life capable of; and how can it be altered to be... Better..." The maws growing out of his form let out a wheezing laugh and a few alien clicks in a display of amusement as he spoke. "Doctor Breech has infused his machine body with his organic mind, your creators have infused you with interstellar life and with terrestrial life; While I, have been with infused life from a realm beyond and with life of this realm. While we may be incomplete as we are we are leagues above the blight of this world. We could lead a revolution and turn this disgusting existence into something...Truly...Beautiful..." He shifted his gaze to the horizon of the frozen north... Smoke billowed from the destruction that was wrought by the saiyan invaders and the faint screams of terror echoed out with the howl of the ice cold wind. "...All of us..." He spoke, letting his voice boom out loudly as he outstretched his arms in a grandiose gesture. "...And all that are like us: have the potential to make our mark on this world and every other. Our mark will be a devastating scar that will fester and destroy the very notion of 'natural' life to leave way for the brighter future altered beings like us will bring. We can bring beauty! We can bring change! We can bring..." He turned looking to Breech and Zyajin with a twisted sense of excitement.
"...Evolution."He lowered his arms to his sides. "So... We should collaborate, and form an alliance. We've already tasted the sting of defeat... But...If we work together we can all achieve our goals I guarantee it..."

It seemed both Bio-Androids were on-board with the idea. While Zyajin seemed to have plans to simply hide away in the mountains, Contagion seemed to have much more in mind. The sentient ooze gave a telepathic speech, saying that the three of them could change the world-- nay, the entire universe. Breech gave a nefarious chuckle, agreeing with Conatgion's grandiose plan for universal domination. "I must say, the idea is quite appealing to me. In time, we will show the weaklings of the universe that we are not to be trifled with! Those who oppose us will tremble in terror during their last breaths! We will bring evolution to those who deny glorious progress!"
He turned to Zyajin, addressing his earlier idea of making a base in the mountains. "It's not an unwise choice. I have a laboratory not too far form here, but a secondary base of operations would be useful in case some rambunctious upstart intrudes on our plans before they are complete."
The doctor turned back to Contagion, explaining his plan of action to the gooey creature. "I'll begin work on a Gravity Manipulation Chamber. With it, the three of us should be able to 'train' ourselves to become stronger. After I've finished development on it, we can begin our journey towards complete universal domination."
