Mattenes has been running for a while. He'd only stopped running when he felt his hamstrings burn for the need to rest. As though his legs were seeped in acid and the intense burning had forced him to collapse to the ground to rest. He felt the soft cool ground underneath him. A little less loamy from what he could assume is the fact people have walked these grounds at least somewhat often. He'd passed the Bamboo forest, and found himself in normal forestry, far away from his original pod. He groaned, feeling the tender muscles of his legs. "Oh god this is gonna hurt for a couple hours... I guess I need to find somewhere to sleep..." he said, as he felt a wave of drowsiness wash over him as the adrenaline left his bloodstream. He looked about "I-I cant let anyone find me... N-Not till daylight. Till I can find safe company..." As he says that, he notices a few animals in the distance. Trembling at the sight of him. Bunnies and Deer mostly. Mattenes' emotional fluctuation left him at the precipice of his full power. He took a few gulps of air. Trying to calm himself. I need to keep myself from being scared and a-angry. He reached back, to a now apprehensive tail which seemed to move away from where his hand was reaching back. He forcefully grabbed his own tail. gripping tightly as he felt horrible shocks go through his body. He froze up and gritted his teeth. Just a little more. He felt the fear and anger wash away with the shocking pain. He let go of his tail, and he collapsed on the ground. Alright... I'm not mad anymore... In doing so, he suppressed his energy to about 2. The animals around him trotted and hopped away, less intimidated now. Mattenes was at least happy about that. He didnt scare anyone now. He sighed and reached out with a shaky hand, gathering up a bit of fallen leaves, and pulling them on top of him for camouflage. He fell asleep.
When he awoke, he shuffled out of his leaf bed. Energy still suppressed. Mattenes looked to his tail, which curled up towards his arm for a good view. "My tail... He said saiyans all have it... I think? I think... Maybe I should hide it... So people aren't scared like those humans who attacked me... So I dont get arrested like Purika almost was... Why are people so scared of Saiyans...?" he shook his head, and pulled up his shirt. curling his tail a little above his waist line, and pulling down his shirt to hide the tail. He then started walking on his sore legs. Limping almost. The next thing he knew, he was face first at the edge of the city. Satan city. His clothing was dirty, and he looked a bit rustled. so anyone oncoming could probably notice the off young adult just coming out of the forest.
(Visible PL is about 400/1600 after waking up)

He walked amongst the towers of concrete, he moved amongst the sea of people. In these hellion days of the city sung its song, majestic, beautiful and sounded something like 'honk! honk! move it jackass, why don't I introduce your face to your colon permanently' ah the sweet sound.
He stood out like a thumb tack in an apple pie, noticeable. He wore a tie-dyed shirt it traveled through the color spectrum like he had just killed a baby rainbow and dunked his clothes in its blood, he wore loose fitting pants with sandals on his feet, his head had a band with a flower on it and he had perched upon his nose a pair of teashade glasses. He looked nothing short of the model flower child if it wasn't spoiled by him, his eyes were the color of molten magma he had two horns that twisted out of his head and a smile, well it was in the same family like a cat is technically related to a lion. It was the raising of the lip's the display of sharpened canine, the look of a hungry predator. And if he had said then and there 'free health care' he would've been a Republicans worse nightmare, a demonic Hippie.
He looked out at the child like a man about to do something uncouth, he was entirely untrustworthy. "Hello friend." he called in a soft-spoken voice that might remind one of silk smeared in oil. "I couldn't notice you seem to be worse for wear." he moved over to him his sandals making a light slapping sound as he shortened the difference between them. "You have the look of someone new to the city." he'd reach out to slide an arm around his shoulder raising his hand to gesture at the street before him, it spoke of future promises and rewards yet told. "Let me buy you something to eat, you look half starved." This was the part of the story where the hero fell into bad company, questionable morals ahead.

Jiao-Lan Lu
Appearance?: Humanoid.
Power Level: 1,250 Active Effects?: Makyo Star (8x) 10,000 PL if activated.
It was finally Lu's time to enter the city, and his views through the concrete jungle as the small ten year old showed his meaninglessness among the crowds of hundreds of people going across their daily lives. Lu had managed to contain his demonic power, his body no longer that of a sixty foot dragon, but rather a tiny and insignificant child wearing a white qipao dress and his piercing purple eyes peering through the legs of the humans who seemed disgusted by him. His tail, pointed and sharp, was poking against his back, so he let it free to hang from his rear. His horns still coiling back from his head, black as coal and sharp as knives, which barely left his head. Lu made his way through the people moving about, before something happened that was more common then the thought originally when he first came to the Earth... Another DemonJiao-Lan Lu quickly bolted for the man, the tall demon in his tie-dyed shirt and odd flappy shoes which seemed pointless from most perspectives, and quickly went to a slower and slower pace as he saw a boy with the demon. It couldn't be his child, as it looked nothing like him, but adoption of other races was common among his family, so possibly the same with this one? He couldn't tell and didn't bother to wonder as he called for the two. His white hair fluttering against his pale skin as a magical looking being would appear from his chest, as Yingron normally did, and the blue dragon would spin around once, keeping up with the running child, before coiling around his neck and falling sleep. The translucent dragon blinking oddly, as the demon would ignore to find more activity in this other demon, and what appeared to be an ape boy of some sort. Normal humans don't have tails, so he must have been a baboon! "Excuse me sir! Can I tag along?" |

Mattenes nearly jumped when he noticed the other. However it was not because he was startled by the eyes, the clear demonic appearance, and the power. Actually the sight of the shirt was the first jarring thing to his eyes. Mattenes had never seen a rainbow in his life. So the sight of what was reminiscent to be like if you had grabbed a crayola box and put it through a blender was a bit new to him. He heard the others voice, and feel an arm curl around his shoulders like a snake. He shivered, and stiffened. Though he relaxed a bit, his eyes looking tired "Oh ah, gosh I don't know... I don't really wanna waste your money, but ah. Are you sure you'd be OK with it? We could probably find something cheap" He said. Of course he felt unnerved, though considering recent event, demons may actually be his best company. He wasn't even sure if these beings were native to earth. "Oh and ah, yeah I am kinda new to these cities. I'm used to my home planet'd villages." He looked down, only now realizing someone'd piped up and entered the conversation "Oh! ah, would you mind that? You're already being really nice in offering to feed me." he asks, turning to his new 'friend'. what have you gotten yourself into now. Though he legitimately didn't think less of the two even though they had the most normally offsetting appearance. Granted that's mostly because he grew up with another species that happened to look just as probably freaky to humans so-.

Up to: No good"Nonsense, I insist." he was gonna be his Oliver Twist, to his Bill Sikes minus the whole death of a prostitute but the day was young so who knew. "So tell me about yourself?" he pulled down his glasses onto his nose so the firelight of his eyes were not obscured by the tinted glass, he heard it a soft voice. "Hm?" He looked down at the dainty demon this put him on high alert, I mean obviously this was a disguise and it would be only moments before the flesh peeled back and his head turned around in a full rotation and projectile vomited. He didn't think highly of demons, he was a demon and he knew how trustworthy he was. It was either bloody murder in mind or a thousand little schemes running at the same time, so which was this.
"Hello little one." Was she? He? It trying to poach his catch, he thought it terribly impolite to do that after all there were some unspoken rules even demons played by, and no one likes a scab. "Sure thing." he walked along the street passing storefront windows and the occasional man screaming 'the end is nigh' all in all just another day in the city.
"So tell me about yourselves?" he said breaking from Mattenes, and walking down the street and stopping at a hot dog cart, he held up two fingers and said 'two please' and a vaguely hot dog shaped things appeared, money exchanged hands and the demon returned to the two with the cities equivalent of rat on a stick. "Here you are." and he handed them out between them.

"I am sorry to bug you two. I haven't met another demon in months" His voice would say to the older, much stronger demon in front of him, and taking hold of one of the pieces of human food. It smelled horrible, and it was clearly not edible... or at least, it didn't seem like it to his uncultured nose. He was used to royal foods, delicious meats and elegant brunches, so he quickly handed it back to the demon and rather began to eat pudding from his side bag while the blue scarf of scales and other dragon parts rustled and churned in it's sleep. "It is difficult to find nice people who can handle these-" His voice would cut out as he pocked his razor sharp horns, the hard feeling of the black rods and knocking onto them to show their hardness. He had no clue what this demon was doing to a child, but he was sure it would be fine.
"Anyway, I am Jiao-Lan, but call me Lu. I am here after my family betrayed me, and I... Well, I don't want to talk about it. This is Yingron" His small body would move the small dragon's head so it looked at the bigger demon and the small Saiyan, causing it's eyes to slightly open, before going to sleep again. He would look at at the young saiyan again, continuing his talking. "So, what about you?"
(Sorry for the short post! Not much to post about xD)

Mattenes looked to the Demon, curiously as he had asked him to tell Mammon about himself. Mattenes shrugged a bit, opening his mouth to speak, before Mammon's attention had been diverted to the small one. Mattenes listened to the smol in the Qipao. Only then hearing the word 'demon' "Demon? You two are demons? Well, ah.-" He pauses, looking up a little as if he were picking through his brain "Like the kind my elders told me were in all of us? I thought Demons were intangible things? Wait- now I'm curious, what even is a demon? I would go with what my elders had said, but... recent news..." He looked down a bit conflicted. "Mm, ah- Thanks!" He accepts the Hot dog and after listening to Lu, he nods a bit understanding the concept of Family issues, and when the both of thier attentions turned to him, he fidgeted with the dog in hand, feeling a bit awkward "I see, ah. well I'm named Mattenes, by the family I was raised by. They're an alien species really far from earth, but... Recently I met a person like me... Purika I think he said his name was. He said I'm a Saiyan... I dont even know what that means, but humans beat me with a 2x4 because of it, and a friend named Kaito got really hostile at Purika cause he said something about SSS? SEE? I dont know" he scratches the back of his neck a little "What about you sir?" He asks Mammon

"Betrayed?" was this child serious just coming up to some random demon and I do stress demon, not only could he have been one of her so called traitor he still was a demon horns and all. "We all live with our burdens." he said in soft quiet tones that hushed and reassured, it had the consistency of softness wool doused in sinister poison one only needed to squeeze to draw it forth.
He turned to face Mattenes, he opened up as might a teacher to his student raising one hand and gesturing with the other, giving shape to his word's in those fleeting gestures. "What is a demon, it simply refers to those beings who live in the realm opposite of your own." he paused a moment to make sure the Saiyan was listening, he wasn't going to repeat himself. "But what 'is' a demon-" he emphasized the word giving it gravitas and gravity. "-now that is a harder question, demons don't have to share a common link, as your elders believe we can be of the intangible. But we can also be of the physical." he left out all the parts of they were known for their cruelty and capricious nature, that among all the beings in the universe theirs was considered one of the most vile. "But it varies from demon to demon."
"What about me?" his backstory, his chronicling! He wasn't going to say, he was of the opinion the mind does more work when left with a mystery, so if he was something terrible the mind would make him bigger, kinder all the more sweeter. "I'm a fallen god." he left it at that, mysterious check and with a bit of luck it might circulate as a rumour. "But enough about me, where would you like to go?"

"F-Fallen G-God?" The young demon would say, his blood boiling as he tried to process what he was saying. He couldn't tell the difference in power, his mind worrying if he might have accidentally ticked off the Makaioshin, or maybe this man was Beelzebub in disguise, the vagueness of it causing him to worry heavily. sweating visibly and being stiff. He almost completely forgot about the young saiyan boy, relaxing as he pointed himself towards the boy and remembering what he learned from his parents. The SSE were a group of warriors, he remembered, of some alien species born outside of the Makai. Further more, he had no clue, and was more vocal. "Yeah, I have heard of Saiyans. They are a group of aliens known for killing and raiding other groups... At least they were. I am not sure about now, but some humans seem to dislike them. I lost a cousin to a Saiyan, so I understand the hate..." the young boy would say to the young man, placing a hand on the back of his head, awkwardly smiling. "...But you seem like a nice one. I don't mind being around you. Anyway, as the- uh- fallen god here said, us demons can vary depending on our clans and families. I am not anywhere near related to the Makaioshin, so my family is different. We are known for our Makyan Dragon forms, though not many demons like the Lu Dragon clan." He hushed himself from there, hoping Mammon knew nothing of the Lu Dragon clans, but considering their popularity among the demons, and how much they were vicious and hateful, it was difficult to find one who didn't know of them. He would grab his own hand, rocking on his heels and looking down, almost as if shamed, ignoring the comment on where to go.

Mattenes listened to Mammon "ah... You guys are not as bad as the elders make you out to be! They always told me the demon in my heart, which was causing my anger; I had to control" He says, looking down towards his chest "... I guess they weren't entirely wrong but... now I know they didn't mean demons. I guess it's just my blood that makes me angry..." He sighs. "Saiyans... I guess it's true." He says, looking discontentedly at himself. "A-anyways..." He tried to pry his mind off the subject. More funny than not, he actually completely believed Mammon's introduction as a fallen god "Ah, Mr. Fallen god I don't mind where we go. I'm fairly new to this planet, so I don't know what people do here" He felt awkward about the streets, almost concerned someone was gonna drag him down the street again, and beat him with a 2x4 again. "Maybe you could show us around?" He asked, hoping he wasn't stepping over bounds, or being uncouth. "a-also, what's a god?" he asks. He didn't have a religion, or a guardian of his home planet. so while the word sounded important. he certainly had no context of what it meant. He looked to Lu though, feeling a bit disheartened at the information laid out by them "I'm ah... sorry about what's happened because of my race... I've gotten a lot of issues cause of it now. I didnt know why... I guess it's cause th- we, hurt people." He sighs. "but thanks, it feels nice that I dont unnerve you two" he smiles a little. Feeling slightly better

Up to: No good"Mister fallen god? Please, just call me Mammon." he fumbled about with as much grace as a man looking for his car keys every pocket was under suspicion, he removed a small packet with a depiction of a half-rotten foot broken with the black crags and mark of disease with the caption 'is it worth it'. Evidently it was, he removed a cigarette from it "Saiyan, thought so with the tail and all. You know some people say that Saiyans are the descendants of interbreeding between mortals and demons after all, the lunar transformation is hardly mundane." he pressed a cigarette between his lip's and rolled it from one side to the next getting a taste for the cancer stick. "Where does all that mass come from, how can such a body hold such a beast. Magic."It smoldered as a lance of Ki no bigger than his pinkie ran through the length of tobacco, it ignited with a quiet 'whoomf' the sound of a mouse's bonfire so silent to be missed unless one was listening for it. "I'd offer you a smoke, but you lot look too young for the bad habit." he walked with them keeping pace and setting the stride, he'd move towards a long strip of green a small park nestled into the city, like one stubborn weed not given in to the tireless advances of concrete lots."Fear not young Saiyan, you have little to fear from me." he walked among the trees raising a hand to brush past the low hanging leaves and to feel the greenery pass through his finger tip's. "But the people of earth have been wronged by your people, many lives claimed by them in an invasion. So I hear." he said in a non-plus tone one uses to describe the weather, a little bit bored. "But that is not your fault, sins of the father and all that.""I'm about to show you something." he said in the tones of 'just you wait, I got a surprise'. He stopped at a small pond the water crisp blue and shining reflected light, he removed a small piece of bread from his pants pocket and began to rip it up, ducks began to bob and sway up to him quaking their delight at feeding time. "Ever feed the ducks." he split the loaf and gave each end to the two.

"Lunar transformation? What do you mean by that?" He asks, Mattenes thought a bit on his words. Mortals and Demons... In an odd way, it made some sense. He jumped back a bit at the other using his ki. He remembered Kaito and shivered a little "You do the same thing! The... light stuff. What is that? It looked different. Less terrifying..." He ran a hand along the length of his arm sheepishly. He was still a bit startled at the new revelation. "Sins of the father, I think I understand what you mean. Past stuff is really... harsh. It upsets me even more that who I am is a species of invading..." he grits his teeth. His Pl rising just a bit as he lost a little grip on the suppression (Pl: 1,000/1,600) Though he closed his eyes and looked to Mammon as he walked to the pond. He watched them quack. A small smile grew onto Mattenes' face. The feeling of anger subsiding "I've never fed a... duck..." He walked to Mammon as he offered the split loaf pieces. He took one in hand and tore a little from it. Throwing it to the ducks. His smile grew as he sat down and watched them "This reminds me of home" he said, more relaxed. The suppression didn't increase, in fact it stayed as it was, but the air around him probably felt more pleasant as a result "So, what's a demon's daily business? I-I know it might sound random, but I dont know much about what demons do"

"Better to be invader then the invaded, it is better you hold the sword than another." he said in the ponderous tones of someone ready to lay out the world, and tell them how it really is. "Make no mistake if you do not someone else will."
"So, what's a demon's daily business?"
"What do we do-" he lingered on that just enjoying his cancer stick, a breath in a cloud of smoke out. "terrorize, maim, destroy." he removed the cigarette from his mouth with a wet popping sound, it was all but a nub he turned it over in his hand inspecting it with the interest of a jeweler and his jewel, it turns out tobacco is a poor jewel and he flicked it at a duck, the animal sqwarked in reply as if giving him the feathered equivalent of 'go screw yourself'. It calmed down at the bribe of bread.
"We're a lot like you mortals in some ways, but we're more closely entwined with our nature. Our world is far more volatile." he was basking in the presence of the star he could feel his muscle rippling under his skin the beating of his heart, in the Makyo's light he was alive. "We have planets there that do not obey your laws of physics, a rock might become a liquid and that liquid sentient." he pulled out the pack again and looked at the dwindling supply of death sticks, he'd have to go buy more soon.
"By our very nature we're agents of destruction, some of my kind even lapse into mere beasts and destroy everything until put down. Even I who am among the more agreeable of my kind crave it, and you knows who fault is that." he had the look of hunger on his face stricken in the way his lip's rolled up from his teeth and saliva rolled down them, each a point in a predators grin. "Your universe your realm, it leaks into mine it twists it. We are the equilibri-" he paused stopping himself, he began to feed the ducks again tossing crumbs to them. "-that is not something for you to worry about."

"If I dont go on the offensive, eventually someone will against me... Is there really no peace?" He asks himself. He was comfortable, but at the same time conflicted. Like the time you spend eating breakfast while the creaking feeling in your gut tells you that you have an intense test in the first class you have. It rends and tears at your gut for you to pay attention to it, but the laze and euphoria of an innocent moment as indulgence keeps you from feeling raw fear. The most suggestible of moments. He looked up and watched him, and listened to him go on about Demon business. "So, I guess in a way. Saiyans and demons are almost one in the same... We kill, cause mayhem, terrorize. From what i've gathered from everyone."The thought of planets with no concept of physics. Up is down, left is right kind of stuff. He almost found himself lost in a myriad of thought. each thought dragging him into a different direction. Pulling at his understanding, picking apart what he's learned and laying it before him. He almost smiled at the end of his speech. The wisps of his energy surfacing to it's normal potential. 1,600. Hot creeping feeling rising in his blood. Though in a flash of the other's emotions swaying to feeding the ducks. The image of a few things scattered his sight. The human who gave him candy after he was beaten. The family he knew. The childhood friends he understood so personally. His blood nearly froze and he shook his head trying to hide the torrent of emotion he had almost expressed so openly and kept to feeding the ducks "Thats ah... very interesting way to think... Maybe that was just my blood, but something felt uncomfortably right. It should feel wrong. to me at least. How I was raised. I was always told to avoid violence." He admits. looking up to Mammon for any response.

"There is only one peace." he turned to look at Mattenes, his eye's level with his the bright orbs burned in his face, a sea of red, yellow and orange and if smoke slid out from behind them no one would be surprised, he had the devil's eyes the look that skipped the flesh and pierced the soul. "And it is the one we take."
"It should feel wrong."
"Wrong? It's only natural." he slid his arm over Mattenes, shoulder and held out his arm for the Saiyan to see one moment an empty palm the next a closed fist and the next a cruel knife, it had a serpent wound around its hilt with gem studded eye's. A little prestidigitation could go far, with the speed the star gave him he just pulled it from his sleeve in one languid movement, it was just going at the fraction of a second.
"And sometimes must get his hands bloody, there are good causes and good people to fight for. Would you let them down if you had the power to stop them?" he offered him the knife tossing him a ripe red apple with his spare hand, he had to laugh at all the subtle hints he was giving this boy. He was one for drama even if he was the only one with an ounce of class.
"Would you like the power to help people, would you like the power to be adored. Never to let someone raise a hand against you." he gave him his best use carsalesmen smile, it said without speaking 'c'mon what do you gotta loose disclaimer: Mammon and co are not responsible for the loss of your humanity, soul or any other part of your body you may or may not lose'. "I could give it to you."
