"Rafael!"
[b]Royal dropped to his knees, skidding across the ground to a halt next to Raf. His armor set steamed slightly at what he had done [/b]
English
-
[i]Continuing to mumble, Rafael continues to mumble something, as the wiring pierced seemingly works to repair itself and reseal the skin, causing great pain[/i] "That -blam!-er... He's here too. Of course now of all times.."
-
"Who was he?!" [b]Royal inspected the wound to insure that it would entirely heal [/b]
-
"The Quiet One... That's all he's known as. You could say he's the literal shadow of my former self. He manifested when I took pure energies into my system after I killed Malren.." [i]Rafael loses a bit of his strength, almost falling over completely[/i] "That's why I'm not what I used to be.."
-
[b]Royal grabbed him, helping him stay up and steady [/b] "I see. So we gotta kill the S.O.B. right?"
-
"Not now.. Even with my strongest will, he cannot be killed. He is literal pure darkness. To get rid of the bastard, I need to be stronger." [i]Rafael groans in pain again. And then the same shadowy figure appears behind Royal, exclaiming[/i] "That's right!" [i]The figure then disappears, as quickly as it came[/i]
-
"Good thing you got me then... Here's what we'll do. We're pretty similar in power, I'll provide you with power and energy. Completely give everything to you. Then you kill the BASTARD."
-
"Even with yours, it's unlikely we can even scratch him. He's essentially me.. Well, is the incarnation of my lost power.. but even more durable... Besides.. When the time comes, I want to be the one who ends him. On my own.." [spoiler]As you can likely tell, defeating the other one is what will bring Rafael's powers back to their original state.[/spoiler]
-
"Fine... Then I'll just help you along the way. Get Lord Kross in here, the time Traveller. Hell we'll get a few guardians for extra measure, maybe a Tenno..."
-
"Perhaps.. But if we do. I know of those who have aided me in the past who match those titles. Hold on a moment" [i]Rafael presses an area of his head, a hologram of sorts appears[/i] [i]"Za- I mean Rafael, You're alive?! By the god's where are you?" the hologram states, it's a communication method. One he stole during his travels[/i] "Yes, Centrax. I am indeed alive, don't worry brother, I am fine. Besides, I have more important things. Contact Varren. Send him to my location. That's all for now." [i]Rafael ends the communication, before looking back to Royal[/i]
-
"Certax and Veraan? What do those two do? Surely he can't be a Lord of Cinder such as Kross. There are only three..."
-
"Centrax is my brother. He is essentially my opposite, imbued with pure, more light energies. Varren is a Tenno I used to know whom I ran into throughout my escapades as a teenager." [i]Rafael chuckles, but then groans in pain again[/i]
-
"A Tenno? Haha... Stealing my ideas now are you. Classy." [b]Royal looked at the wound again [/b]
-
"To be fair I knew this guy personally. It was either that, the ex-wife vampire. Or, god forbid, my parents."
-
"Parents? Don't get me started on mine... Or my Ex Time travelling wife... Or my ex Undead girlfriend... Or my own any my family."
-
"Either of the others would be fine on my end.. But I'd rather not danger them. Especially after the fact my home was attacked while they were around."
-
"See I'd be scared of my family getting attacked but they reside in a pocket dimension."
-
"Seeing as it was the sane guy who just stabbed me who attacked, it really wouldn't have mattered"
-
"Yeah apparently not..." [spoiler]>MFW When Rafael and Royal are practically identical [/spoiler]
-
"Hm.. Now if only Al was here. Too bad I left him with Centrax. He couldve assessed the damage more efficiently." [spoiler]To be fair Royal isn't what's basically a shadowy freak of the night due to being mixed with dark magic and bring turned into a cyborg.[/spoiler]
-
"Al?" [b]Royal looked up towards the sky [/b] "So many names." [spoiler]Well I'm halfway there.... Time for some augmentations. [/spoiler]
-
"I know, I get around a lot. Al was a friend of my wife. Poor guy was nearly killed, his body was literally broken. We had to transfer his conscience into a data chip. He essentially is artifical intelligence." [spoiler]And thinking of it, Rafael and Royal both have seen and done some crazy shit[/spoiler]

Edited by Royal Blade: 2/1/2017 4:20:49 AM"Al the A.I. You know, my ex wife once knew a guy who got brutally murdered, but she reminded time to save him and we ended up getting stuck in a loop for a couple of years... Until she was ready for him to die. Dude's name was Jacque. Some Frenchman mercenary." [spoiler]And with their contacts? "[/spoiler]
-
"I see. Time loops and accidents? Sounds like how my parents met. A soldier from the future gets in an experiment gone horribly wrong and a sorceress from a distant past -blam!-s up her spell. Ending up with the two of them meeting." [spoiler]Don't even get me started on the fact due to where he's been through out dimensions, he's even been to versions of the Elder Scrolls. Where he actually talked to the Deadra.[/spoiler]
-
"Heh. Parents met under mysterious circumstances that no one wishes to discuss with me for one reason of another." [spoiler]Royal's been to a version of Mass Effect were the most Sovereign and The Geth won... It was weird [/spoiler]

Edited by Seven: 2/1/2017 4:33:14 AM"Heh. I-" [i]Rafael is interrupted when a blue flash sparks behind them and two figures walk out, except one looks like a child[/i] "Varren! Centrax!" [i]Rafael then gets a coughing fit before one of those black whisps erupts from his mouth, fading away.[/i] "God I hate when it does that."
