The air whistled past his face, the odd figure streaking through the sky like a small missile. The wind was whipping his clothes around quite dramatically, and it was only through the power of Ki that they weren't torn off like kids from a carousel on overdrive. Walker glanced about, seeing nothing of particular interest. As his gaze came back up, something in the distance caught his attention. A long, thin line seemed to divide the sky in front of him, a faint but slightly visible shape in the distance. Angling slightly, the Bio-Android made his way toward this odd place. After a few minutes, the shape came into focus, and the walking tree landed next to the base, staring at the odd design. It was like some sort of tower, but far too small for anyone to even enter. The edges had knobs, and these strange bumps seemed to rise upwards in an ascending spiral.
Staring up, Walker considered this for a while. It was certainly odd, as logically, this structure should have fallen down. It was also notable that the bumps seemed to be worn, but the wear seemed to decrease as his eyes traced up. Moving over, the Bio-Android placed a questioning hand on the tower. Nothing happened. "Most curious... I wonder, is one supposed to climb this? That is what people do to towers, I believe." It seemed odd that someone would bother with such an inconvenient method when it was possible to soar like a bird, but perhaps they could not fly. The very idea saddened the recently created creature. Flying was most enjoyable. His curiosity now well and truly piqued, the right arm of the tree-man splintered, wrapping firmly around the tower a few feet up. His other arm stretched upwards, splintering and wrapping as well. With a grunt, he began to climb. If the person who used this couldn't fly, he would not either. It would be a slap in the face if he ended up at the top, soaring like a bird, and this person could not fly.
As the ground fell away, Walker fell into a rhythm. Stretch, grab. Stretch, grab. After about an hour, his arms began to feel strange. Pausing for a minute, the tree stared at them. It seemed perfectly alright, all things considered. Suddenly, something came to mind. Humans got tired, right? If they overused their muscles, they got sour. No, wait. That was those lemon things. Sore, that was it. However, he was a tree. Or well.. a plant-humanoid hybrid. Maybe he got worn out if he used his body too much as well? The precise description of his composition wasn't entirely clear to him, and in from what snippets of info he could gather from his scientist creator's memories, there seemed to be little knowledge on their part either. It seemed like, after a point, they just added whatever they could think of.
Resuming his climb, the Plantman, ironically containing precisely no DNA from any race that had ever lived on Planet Plant, drifted off into mental consideration. After a while, he realized that it was night time. Not having to sleep sort of removed the importance of the time of day. Going back to the slow, methodical climb, he paused occasionally to allow himself to recharge. Wrapping his limbs around the tower, he would sit, allowing himself to recharge. There were many things to consider, and honestly, it wasn't like there was much else for him to do. Once or twice, he considered skipping a section of the tower by flying, but if he flew too fast, the person on top might see him. Shrugging, the climb continued. Day returned eventually, and at some point, left again. It was reasonably quick going, given his long reach, but this tower was extremely tall.
Breaking out of his reverie, Walker blinked. The bottom of some large round object was above him. It seemed he had reached the top. Leaning back, he blinked. There, floating above the tower, sat some sort of flying shape. Well now, this was interesting indeed. Looking back and forth, he felt a bit guilty. He had originally intended to visit the person atop this tower, but there was no guarantee they were home. Besides, now that he thought about it, anyone who had a home this difficult to visit might not want visitors. Satisfied with this answer, the Bio Droid let himself float softly off the tower, then lightly rise. As he headed for the floating structure, something halted his ascent. There was no clear warning, but there was a feeling present now. It felt like he was intruding on somewhere that was invitation only, and that implication was most unpleasant.
Looking back and forth, the flying tree though for a moment, then tried to knock on the air. That failing, he extended one arm, floating back a bit until he could see the edge. "Pardon me? Is anyone home?" Hopefully the resident could hear him, and wasn't sleeping. It was possible they could feel him approaching or something of the like, but presumption wasn't a good thing to do, by any means. Waiting, Walker looked upwards, his curiosity held at bay only by his manners.
(Note: I did not intend to have the climb of Korin tower be a cheap way to sneak in PL gain. Given Walker's twice most Dragonball powerlevels, I figure it wouldn't actually be that big a boost anyway. It was just to show his personality a bit, and "I fly up to the lookout" was just plain boring.)

Scargot had just gotten his daughter back to the lookout, it had seemed as though days had passed but really it was only hours. Reikiko had gone into the temple and probably to her room but Scargot decided to stay out on the large concrete front yard in front of the Temple. He stood in the very middle and looked up at the sky, taking a deep breath Scargot closed his eyes and hopped into the air. He crossed his legs and kept himself a float, his meditation began now, he had a lot to think about. The words of Kieko echoed in his mind, if he was going to do his job against the new threats to the world.
"Nevertheless, you will want to get some training done Kami no Baka. Even at her current level Onee-sama wouldn't have the luxury of protecting you while she is fighting her sister. Unless you become strong enough not to slow her down... One of you two would be dying the day Yuriko-nee targets you."
Scargot was going to need to grow stronger; Reikiko had surpassed him so his training with her would mean nothing now. He wasn’t a fighter but his magic and mental capabilities were stronger than anyone else on the planet. The evening soon turned into night and stars began fill the black sky, his meditation was going well as is mind was coming clear and all the worries in the world seemed to be… Disappearing.
“Uncle… Help Me.” The voice of Reikiko began to pound through his mind and the image of Reikiko and her master being attacked by a shadowy figure. The image that Reikiko showed him just a few hours ago, sweat poured down Scargot’ face as he opened his eyes and floated back to the ground, he looked at his hands as the sweat dropped from his face onto them.
“I must get stronger.” Scargot jumped into the air again and began to meditate, this time he turned himself upside down. Fighting gravity not to land on his head he began to empty his mind again, this form of training was the most intense training he had ever done. Scargot hated fighting and hurting others, which caused him to not training in the conventional sense but instead intense meditation and endurance training. Allowing him to be able to access situations and always be able to dodge incoming attacks, with these two abilities Scargot will be able to last long enough in a fight to the point where he can pin point the opponents weakness and find a way to exploit it without laying a single hand on them.
Scargot suddenly began to think of the evil aura he had also felt that day, it seemed as though at that point the Earth stood still. The dark aura poured through the mind of Scargot and he began to visualize who he had seen today and the battle that will soon unfold if the Demon wasn’t stopped. Whilst he was in the other world he had heard of a demon that had escaped hell and entered the world of the living, the beast had found the ability to become a Makaioshin. If this was the man that he had heard of then the world was going to be in even more trouble than Scargot had first thought of. He spent too long working in the afterlife and whilst he was there everyone in the world got stronger. If he had of been there and if he had of been getting stronger as well this would all be easier.
After a few more hours of meditation Scargot flipped himself back upright and fell to the ground, holding his robe up to his forehead and wiping off the sweat he opened his eyes to see the sun was rising once again. His training had paid off and he lasted the night upside down in complete mediation. As he stood up and began to walk back to the temple he felt something, a strange aura something he had never felt before. The Aura almost reminded him of Reikiko but it was a lot weaker, could it be another bio android was coming? Scargot quickly walked over to the edge of the Lookout just in time to hear the being speak.
Scargot hadn’t had a visitor in some time, he wiped his brow one more time and looked over the edge. Scargot let out a small wave signalling the being to come up. As he did he stepped back from the edge and put out his right arm allowing his staff to appear in his hand. From the short glance he had, it seemed the being somewhat resembled a tree, whether that was intentional by the creator was unknown to Scargot but a visitor was a visitor.

As he floated, on the edge of the island, a figure appeared. It was strange, because the general shape looked somewhat familiar, but he was fairly certain he had never seen someone like this before. The figure was wearing robes of a rather regal nature, and in one hand bore a staff of some kind. His skin was green, and ears pointed. From his bald head, two antenna popped out. As he floated upward, it struck him as to why it sounded familiar. When he had been looking at his design specs, an image of one of these creatures had been on it, next to a blurb of information. It seemed that they were called Namekians. As his feet touched down on the smooth, tiled surface of the strange space, the tall, admittedly slightly intimidating creature peered around.
He cut a rather startling figure, one which was almost immediately ruined by his bow, and the slow, sonorous, and friendly voice with which he greeted the Guardian of Earth. " Hello, sir. My apologies for the sudden visit. I was flying past the tower below, and initially was scaling said tower, curious about it's nature. Once I reached the top, however, I saw your.. Island? Is that the right word?" The tree looked briefly befuddled, his unusually expressive face somehow conveying this despite a lack of much else but eyes on it. Seeming to decide it didn't really matter too much, he continued.
"Well, anyway. I was quite intrigued, and thus decided I would see what this place was. I confess, I am more or less adrift at the moment. I've been traveling around for the past few days, shortly after my creation, been more or less lost." Looking about the Lookout once more, the tree clasped his hands together, bouncing on the heels of his feet slightly. Apparently, he had not really thought this speech out beyond "Go and see what's on top of that floating place, maybe it's interesting." Despite looking like a massive tree that decided it got bored of hell, grew a face, and stole someone's clothing on the way out, his manner was almost childlike. Appropriate, considering he was probably the youngest person on the planet who could crush rocks at the moment.
Suddenly, his eyes shot open fully, and he bowed again hastily. "Ah! My deepest apologies, introductions. I had completely forgotten that, and did not intend to be rude. I am Walker, or.. I suppose technically, I was called Project Stem. So... Walker P. Stem? No, that sounds ridiculous. Just Walker, I suppose." Straightening up, he held out a hand in an attempt to mimic that shaking thing people did with them. "Who might you be?"
(Sorry it's a bit short, but I didn't want to have Walker ramble on too long and force you into one path of conversation. I'll make sure the next one is more appropriate in length.)

As the tree man floated up onto the lookout Scargot looked closely at the man, so he was a bio android who was only just created. He slowly began to circle the man using his staff to help him walk around. The being suddenly bowed and began to speak, his voice really didn't match his figure but Scargot was used to this. Scargot interrupted the man by saying "Lookout." Scargot' mind raced, how many bio androids were made down there, was he made by Chimera? Was he a sibling of Reikiko? What was his allignment, his intentions? What was he built to accomplish. Scargot has learned before not to judge someone based on appearance and that if he entered the mind of all who approached, the end result could turn dastardly especially if the being was working with the demon kai.
He then continued to let the tree speak as he circled him again, he had never seen anything like him before. Reikiko was a bio-android but not like this Reikiko slightly resembled a human at least, Once he had finished circling the tree he stood in front of him with a smile on his face as the tree bowed again this time in haste as if he was troubled by something.
"Greetings Walker, it's a pleasure to meet you." Scargot said extending his hand and shaking the tree man's, "My birth name is Scargot, I am the Guardian of Earth and a Namekian. People have been known to call me Kami but you may call me what you like." Bringing his hand back to his side Scargot turned around and began to walk towards the center of the lookout. "This place you have come to is the holy ground of the Guardian of Earth, many people try to scale the tower and only a few succeed. Once they have risen to the tower they have earned the right to speak with Kami, that's me." Scargot said turning around and smiling once more, "I guess you came here with no further intentions but I'm sure once you arrived you have about what it is you would like to discuss with me. It's ok, ask me anything."
Scargot sat down under one of the palm trees and rested his back up against it, the training had hit him hard and a few beads of sweat still fell down his face. He patted the ground next to him whilst watching and studying the beings movements, if he really was built like Reikiko then where is his tail. Scargot had a few questions for the being but they could all wait in time.

Listening, rapt, as the Guardian spoke, multiple questions came to mind. However, it seemed rude to just bombard the polite green person with questions. Sitting down across from this new, rather intriguing being, the plantdroid considered what to ask. After a minute of consideration, he raised a hand, three fingers poking upwards. "I do not want to bother you unduly, as I could probably ask you quite a few questions indeed. I am... new, I suppose, and most of my knowledge is based on knowledge I've acquired, so to speak. So, I will ask three questions, if that's okay." Dropping the hand, he stared at it.
"First, I suppose, is whether you know of anything else like me? All I know is that I am something called a Bio-Android, created from plant genetic material, and given DNA from various races as a base." The sentence sounded rattled off, like he was quoting something or someone. It had been on the records in the lab he was in. "I don't remember anything before I woke up. Apparently, I was created, but I couldn't quite think right until I accidentally pulled one of the scientists who created me inside my arm. I think... I believe I was supposed to be a weapon of sorts?" Looking a bit contemplative, he pointed his arm away from the lookout's inhabitant, letting it uncurl and branch out. "I did this again to someone who attacked me in the city, and he just... vanished. I felt a little stronger. I feel bad about the scientist, but I can remember a few things I think the city person did. There's a lot of weaker looking people not like him getting hit with Ki attacks, and the words "Filthy Aliens." Apparently he was... Xenophobic? Oh, I think I got that one right."
Realizing that he had begun rambling a bit, he returned his arm to normal. "So, as to the second question... Someone I met told me I should find a purpose. I like fighting. I think I was made to fight, and I like getting stronger, but... the last time I fought, it was because someone else who thinks like I do killed the person who told me I should find a purpose. He said he did it just to prove he was stronger. I don't want to be like that." In an odd spark of seriousness, Walker looked up, his glowing eyes focusing on Kami. "You said you're the Guardian of Earth, right? Then you probably want to help people. I thought that, If I want to fight without being like that other person, I should fight people like that. So... where can I do that?" The speech ended a little lamely, as he realized he hadn't actually asked the question, despite saying "Second Question" nearly two minutes before.
Sitting back, he glanced up at the sky again. Even this far up, it was a pretty sight. Ever since he had found out he could fly, the sky had seemed comforting. It was peaceful, in a way, and with the chaos of his first few hours, it had been nice to just let the wind rush past.

The tree came and sat down across from him, he then held up his hand as if to say he had three questions. Scargot sat up and listened to them all, it seemed the tree man had gone through a lot and there was not much he knew other than what the people knew that he absorbed. After hearing that he had accidentally absorbed people and that his arm was the equal to Reikiko' tail he put up his index finger on his right hand and entered the mind of the being. "This will only take a second walker." Once he had entered the beings mind he saw a whole lot of flashbacks and orders. It seemed that the being was made to kill just like all the other bio androids but something seems to have gone wrong, he then saw the flashback where the being absorbed the scientist. His first victim, it seems the being didn't do it intentionally and was as confused as any innocent person would be.
"I see." Scargot said as he opened his eyes again, looking at the being in the eyes he stood up. Letting out a breath he signaled for the tree to rise too, it seemed as though the man didn't know what he was programmed to do. "I know all about you... Walker. What I have to tell you is not pleasant and I don't want you to take any of it to hard ok." He said as he put his hand on the beings chest assuring the being that Scargot was here to help and wasn't scared of him. "You are a Bio-Android, that means you are a man made creation, now depending on who created you. You may have been created for evil deeds or you may have been created for good deeds but both require something for you to fulfill your created purpose. You must absorb stronger beings in order to become a Perfect being. My adopted daughter is just like you, a Bio-Android. I don't know where she is at the moment but maybe one day you can meet." He put his hand safely on the bio androids arm, far away from the point where he could get absorbed. "You will need to be careful but if you are you an do great things. You will be able to fight but you will have to choose the side you will fight for. If you truly want to fight for good, I can help you. As Guardian of the Earth I need as many allies as I can get to help me with my duties. I can train you and teach all about this planet if you wish." Scargot looked up at the tall tree and smiled but in the back of his mind he thought. "I'm going to need a bigger lookout..."

There was a bit of a pause as Walker waited for the Namekian to finish touching his arm. He had to admit, this was a little strange, but honestly, there wasn't much of a baseline for such interactions, was there? After a few moments, his partner in conversation rose, and Walker rose as well. Unmoving, he listened as Kami spoke, not entirely understanding at first. After the God of earth finished speaking,the tree was silent for a moment.
The words had resonated with him, as faint orders floated to the surface. He could feel the attempt at programming in his body, but it seemed that the attempt had failed. After a moment, the tree realized why. There was a chuckle, and then Walker began laughing. Raising his other arm a little, he tried to make an apologetic gesture, but failed. After a minute or so, the laughing ceased, and the deeply amused tree managed to regain his balance. "I.. I really apologize, but, heh, oh my." Tapping his chest, he grinned, and then put his hands on his hips. "Thankfully, it appears my creators essentially created me by accident. They tried to program me like a Bio-Android made entirely from humanoid creatures, but I'm mostly plant. I think I feel the programming you mean, but it's just sort of in the same way I can feel my toe. It's not really working." Sobering up, he crossed his arms, looking pensive.
The sudden fit of laughter had made him seem more adult at first, but the more innocent, polite manner was still there. However, the news that he had essentially killed two people who didn't entirely deserve it was troubling. Looking back up, he met Kami's eyes. "I don't like the fact that I absorbed those people without knowing what I was doing. I want to be the one to choose what I do, not some programming. However... I hope this doesn't sound evil, but I don't think I'll be sad. They're part of me, now, and they weren't good people. The first one was trying to make a weapon to kill people, and the second was using his power to abuse others." Hurrying on, hoping the Guardian wouldn't get mad about that, he finished what he intended to say. "I want to find a purpose, and I think what you suggested would be an excellent one. If you don't mind, I'd love to help protect the earth. I mean, if I'm honest... Fighting is really fun. Doing it for a good reason would be better, though."

Suddenly Scargot was startled by the tree being bursting out into laughter, this caused Scargot to step back as he watched the tree being have his little fit. It seemed that the scientists didn't work out all his kinks as to which is the reason why he as a mistaken experiment. Scargot had never thought that a bio android could be so calm and not wanting to destroy. Maybe Reikiko was a rare breed or just created by the wrong people, the being then said that the program that wanted him to kill and become perfect was malfunctioning. This was good news to Scargot' ears, already having Reikiko trying to be perfect was hard enough let alone a second bio android.
"It's understandable, you are a being created by power hungry humans it's ok that you don't show remorse what is important is that you understand that what you did was wrong. Those men may have been bad but every single life here on Earth is precious and if we just killed everyone who did something wrong in their life, there wouldn't be much left would it." He sighed and looked away for a second before turning back and staring the tree in the eyes.
"But, there are times were beings have to be defeated in order for others to live. Sometimes one life can be sacrificed to save 100 lives. It's not always the best way to handle things but sometimes it is the only way. Now if you really do want to fight for a purpose then I will help you. But first, we need to do something about that." Scargot pointed at the beings arm, it may be needed in the future but for training and safety of the beings who visit the lookout, the hand was going to need to be subdued. Walker at his current power was not strong enough to get the training of Scargot just yet but at his current state, Scargot was not going to allow anyone to fight him. "I want you to learn to control your arm." Scargot said with a serious tone.

Walker nodded, listening to the god as he spoke. He wondered what this "Perfect" thing was supposed to be. It sounded a bit pretentious, really. Still, he privately decided, if there was someone really strong who couldn't be trusted to stay alive... maybe he would give it a go. It sounded like a slippery path, but his mind flashed back to the images of the lab, and the scientist's plans for him. His heart hardened a bit. Yes, there would be people worse than that, and if they would not yield... in that case, all bets were off. He probably wouldn't tell Scargot if he could avoid it, though. The reverie was broken by the comment about his arm.
Rather confused, Walker looked at it, then moved back a bit. He moved it up and down, then back and forth. Stretching it out, he unfurled it, then popped it back. With a frown, he tried a few more blows, before looking over at the Guardian in confusion. "I think I can control it." Looking back, he splintered the end again, to see if something was wrong, before the real meaning hit him. Scargot was afraid he would accidentally absorb someone else. "... Oh. I see what you mean." Pulling it back into a hand, he flexed the limb a few times. "It's not that I do it on accident, or I can't control it. I just knew I could, but I didn't quite understand what was happening. I think I can... shut it off, sort of, if you'd prefer. I'm sorry, but I don't think it can be removed entirely."
Shrugging, he brought the arm up, gesturing to it with his other hand. "I can make parts of myself grow back, if I want. I think they were trying to mimic something that looked like you, called a Namekian." Folding his arms behind his back, he looked a little troubled. "I don't really know where they got the DNA, though. My apologies." He was thinking about the problem, when something finally registered with him. "Wait, your daughter is like me?" He looked pleased for a second, then frowned. "Would I be somebody's daughter, then? Does that mean you made her?" He looked about ready to start another torrent of questions, but managed to hold back just barely.

Post by Scargot on Mar 29, 2015 4:12:11 GMT
Scargot' face was serious as he was intentionally watching the beings arm change shape and extend, he had Namekian DNA in him. The feeling of a Namekian was really on this lookout with Walker and Reikiko along with Scargot up here. Anyone who had properly trained in Ki sense would think there was a Namekian party up here, even thought it seemed this being didn't know what a Namekian looked like. Scargot then rolled his shoulder and cracked a bone before quickly punching at the air and with it causing his right arm to extend and grab onto the tree behind Walker.
"Namekians.. They are a pure race, only fight when they have to and love to protect the environment. Yes I am a Namekian and very proud. To think that people can mimic such a race is discerning to me." After a few seconds of intense thinking about how these humans were able to get so much Namekian DNA for their androids. "My daughter, he name is Reikiko. I call her my daughter but I only adopted her, she is not mine I found her in the forest after she escaped from her creators much like you. You may not be someones daughter but you'd be a great son or even bodyguard for someone. If you do decide to be my student and train with me, you will be my son."
Scargot put his hand on the bio-androids shoulder, "What is it you want to do right now? Do you want to travel, do you want to learn more about the world or do you want to train. If you were made to fight, you must be able to fight or at least have some battle sense."

Post by Reikiko on Mar 29, 2015 11:33:48 GMT
It was a peaceful day within the timeless lookout, a pretty rare occurrence if one thought for a moment how often the temple had been obliterated during the last year or so. Although the apple tree she had treasured so dearly was gone, burnt to ashes by the conflict that had been waged within this holy sanctuary, there were still enough alternatives for her to remain in a good mood. Unlike what one expected Reikiko had a certain fondness for watching television, often fascinated by the imagination of people. Of course she had a natural dislike for commercial breaks, but in the end today was one of the days her favorite show was on television. With her eyes practically glued on the screen as the battle between the protagonist and the villain unfolded before her eyes, the sound of the screen turning black for a moment caused the bio-android to frown, when all of a sudden the screen seemed to have changed.
"Who the hell changed the channel. I was watching Tears to the Crown!"
Curiously enough neither Zexama or Scargot seemed in the room that served as a public living room of sorts, so she could only deduct the fact it was an outside interference. It was at the very moment that she was about to start complaining that the screen flashed back on, and yet the television show she had been watching seemed to have disappeared, instead an odd series akin to one of those sitcoms started to play.
"Ugg, seriously Saiyajin? Who in their right mind hired those actors..."
With a hint of boredom in her eyes Reikiko observed the scene that started to unfold, until the moment the camera turned toward the Saiyajin's face. Now she thought about it, on a full moon a Saiyan could become an Oozaru, and ascend from being a small nuisance into a figurative big nuisance. So obviously when she saw the glasses on the man's face her own expression turned blank for a moment.
"pfft..."
Raising a hand to her mouth in attempt to mute the sound, it was hopeless at this point. The bio-android could feel something odd rising up within her, a sensation foreign to her when all of a sudden it happened.
"Hahahaha!"
The bio-android had burst into a laughing fit, toppling onto her back on the pillow she had been seated on, it was simply too much. Even if she tried to hold her stomach in an attempt to restrain herself, it only led her to laughing even harder as Reikiko rolled from side to side, tears gathering in her eyes.
"HAHAHA-glasses--HAHAHA--Saiyajin----HAHAHA----Giant Monkeys with glasses------pfft------Intelligent monkeys!"
It was too much for her, and by now her laughter resounded through the whole timeless lookout. The sheer ridiculousness of the Saiyajin's glasses, alongside the use of those glasses had left her laughing so hard she couldn't even speak properly.
"T-Too much, someone order me a pair of Blutz Bans, I'm gonna give Daiki a present!"
Her laughter had now turned almost hysterical, the mental image of Daiki having the glasses on and making a ridiculous pose like the kid did, made her almost faint from the lack of breathing after all that laughing.
"Maybe he'd even be willing to do it for the pride points!"
It was hopeless, there was simply no way she was going to be able to last any longer against the power of this silliness. When the image turned toward Vipoi, his stoic look as he declared his approval of the message had caused the bio-android to have her laughing fit resumed.
"Blutz Bans for everyone! Every day is great with a Blutz Bans on your face~"
That Vipoi really was a magnificent bastard, to think he'd go as far as making something ridiculous like this in an attempt to make Oozaru transformations become considered taboo in their society. It was a clever attempt, but also ridiculously funny.
"Someone save me... this is just too---- pfft----- hahahaha"
She was beyond salvation. The image had still played in the back of her head, and when the television shown the commercial again it was game-over. Her vision had grown blurry as she could barely keep her eyes open, literally having laughed so hard her stomach hurt from it.
"What's next, Bio-androids got to wear woolen mittens on their stingers?"
Hopefully Vipoi had enough common sense to realize the strongest being on this planet was currently a bio-android, and she wasn't going to place a mitten on her tail just cause some silly commercial told her to do so.
"I should tell Hikari that next time we go out... we're joining the BBA, the Blutz Bans Alliance!"
Now she could already imagine everyone in the Blue Banner Army walking around with those glasses, all standing in front of Vipoi, while the android had his own pair... colored in pink!
"Aspergia... oh gods I need to get her a pair also, she's gonna be so traumatized she'll become a Supah Saiyajin!"
She could already imagine it, Aspergia looking at the glasses and getting so angry that she ascended into the state of a super saiyan. Those glasses really looked ridiculous, and it didn't help that Reikiko couldn't imagine but a giant Oozaru with the glasses on them.
"Want to be hip and cool? Then the Blutz Bans is just for you!"
The amount of puns and jokes she could create from this were almost endless, and even as she tried to subdue her laughter it just kept on coming, as the television seemingly malfunctioned and continued to replay the commercial. She had not even been aware that Scargot had been outside, talking to a guest, but they both would most certainly be aware of her presence now.
"Does it have a Supah Saiyajin edition? Maybe a golden tint?"
Someone stop her! Please! At this rate Reikiko might seriously have died from her own laughter before anyone had an opportunity to actually defeat her in combat.

The Bio-android considered the question carefully. He was not entirely clear on what made him a son vs. a daughter. The only info he could dredge up on the topic seemed to involve weird fleshy bits he didn't really understand, so he mentally moved past that. It was a hard question to answer, really. Did he want to travel? Well, yes, a bit. Still, wandering aimlessly had only gotten him really, really lost. He was pretty sure that the lab he had been created in was a continent away by now.
Learning more about the world went, more or less, hand in hand with traveling. It still wasn't clear where exactly he was, but the home of someone called God seemed a good place to start. The training, though... his mind flashed back to the field, and the still body. He almost refused the offer. His mouth was opening to say no, but a little voice inside whispered, suddenly. /If you keep being afraid, how are you different from them?/ With a sudden smile, he nodded. "If it's not too much bother, I want to train. I may have been created to be a weapon, but a sword need not be a tool of murder. In the right hands, it can throw down a tyrant or liberate a nation."
The effect of that little dramatic speech was ruined by the immediate befuddlement on Walker's visage. "I.. honestly have no idea where that came from. Sounds good, though." The odd flashes of maturity were coming more frequently, and even the "normal" Walker was sounding a bit more articulate and less naive. The moment was ruined even further when a gale of laughter, near hysterical, echoed out of the lookout. Looking over at Scargot, the surprised Bio-Android raised a hand, opened his mouth, then dropped it again.
'I will be honest, Sir. Given what you have said, that sounds like either your daughter, or the lookout is sentient and laughing at me. Given the very loud laughter, I'm very much hoping that she's just amused, and not ascending to an evil god or something." Tapping his fingers together, he looked back and forth, feeling a little awkward. "Not that I mean she's evil, that's just... sort of terrifying. Also, I can feel myself vibrating from the laugh."

Scargot was humbled by the trees words of wisdom, maybe he had some good in him after all. Scargot grinned and was about talk about his training regime when he heard a maniacal laugh coming from the temple, his grin soon turned into a face of disgust. Reikiko had changed she he had been absorbed, she was suddenly defying his wishes and being a lot more cocky. "Yes, I'm sorry Walker-San. That is my Daughter... Reikiko the Semi-Perfect Bio Android. Don't worry, she has far more evil tendencies than you do. It is my duty to make sure she doesn't do anything to drastic. You could meet her if you would like, she is a bio android with close to no mistakes in her programming, she is the kind of being your scientists wanted you to be."
Scargot dropped his head a bit, he was not happy with the way things were going, it seemed like only just yesterday his daughter was smiling whenever she ate an apple and they would sit out on the steps of the temple looking up at the stars. A small tear fell from Scargot' face as he walked over to the edge of the lookout. "Our training will start tomorrow Walker-San, if you wish you may live here. I have many rooms for guests, with my training you will have increased mental potential and you will grow to know all the secrets of Ki based supplementary abilities. If this is what you wish then I hope you stay, I will make you a great protector of this world."
Scargot looked out over the world below them, the feeling of the Demon Kai roaming the Earth was attacking him inside. Pipa had been quiet for too long and it seemed that Wyntre had stopped her trips to the Earth. Things were too quiet, only the BBA were out and it was only a matter of time before they took over another city, now with Walker he had three allies not counting Reikiko. Zexama, Toma, Bing and Walker these four were going to be his students, his helpers in guarding the Earth. If he failed to train them and teach them his ways there was no doubt that he had failed at his job as Kami and the world was going to spiral into destruction.

Nodding, Walker bowed. "Thank you. I'm quite excited for this. I won't trouble you too much with a room, though." Gesturing to his clothing, he shrugged. "I am a Bio-Android, you said? I appear to have been made from a tree, and as such, do not really sleep. These clothes are also, quite literally, the only thing I own." He did also own a bit of money, but the tree was determined to repress that odd couple of days. Sitting in the grocery checking people out had been boring to an almost painful degree, and he STILL did not understand why the people there had gotten so worried about the vegetables.
Bowing again, he began to walk over to the door, pausing. Reaching out with his arm, making sure to extend it as far as he could, he carefully opened the way to the Lookout's interior. Stepping inside carefully, he stared at the TV for a second, confused, then over to the couch. The woman on it looked normal enough. Blond hair, bluish eyes. He had no way of gauging her strength, but there was an odd feeling in the air. He hadn't felt it with Scargot, or even the demon he had fought after Kiri's death. It was cold, like there was something eating away inside his lower torso. It took him a second to put a name to it, though. Fear. He was... afraid, yes. There was no definitive reason, but he was fairly sure that if this woman didn't like him, he would have to run very quickly.
With a mental slap, he shoved that away. He was standing here silently, and had not even said hello yet. Apparently, being "Afraid" impacted his manners. Bowing in the direction of the couch, he said, calmly. "Hello. My name is Walker. Might I presume you to be Reikiko? Your father has told me a lot about you." The deep, echoey cadence of his voice carried slightly over the TV, and Walker straightened up, waiting for a response. He was fairly certain it would go well, but then again, he hadn't closed the door yet, either.

Scargot chuckled to himself as the Bio-android spoke of not needing sleep as he was made from a Tree, he turned around to see the android finish it's bow and head towards the door of the temple. Scargot hesitated for a second, Reikiko was in there watching the television that she had to install herself. The holy temple of Kami was not a place to just lounge about watching Earthly devices but Scargot was in no position to tell Reikiko no. As Walker headed inside he noticed him stop cold in his tracks, Scargot knew what was happening as he had the same reaction every now and again. Feeling something so much stronger than anything you had ever felt before was something that would stop even the bravest people stop in their tracks and re evaluate their lives.
Scargot quickly followed in as the tree bowed and introduced himself, Scargot quickly chimed in as he walked past the man with his hands together in his robe. "Walker will be staying with us and I will be training him. As you may be aware Reikiko I am starting up a little training school here on the lookout." Scargot stared at the bio-android girl, hopefully she hadn't forgotten her manners in this new state of hers. Scargot was worried for his daughter, he didn't want her to grow to be overly cocky about her new abilities.
Scargot stared at the television, it seemed the BBA groups plan to take over the Earth was starting off quite well as now West Capitol was completely under their control. Scargot could imagine the horror and devastation that would come from a group taking over the world, people running and hiding everywhere with no safe haven. The sooner Scargot started training his students the better.
