Sigh…
Reijin ignored the noise and continued pushing his way through the wet leaves. He had been hunting for hours now and he had seen broken twigs and other signs that someone had been here practically moments before. And yet the rain was doing its best to conceal both their smell and their footprints in one cackling laugh.
Sigh…
Ah yes, the rain… It had begun once more as soon as they left the sands, although this time not nearly as thick. If Reijin had not been so hellbent on drawing blood and getting off this island with some form of medal or the host’s heart, then he’d possibly have taken the time to enjoy the cool drops. Jun’ai might have enjoyed it as well, under normal circumstances, but these were very well not normal circumstances.
Sigh…
He couldn’t take it once more. This was probably the 14th sigh on an almost punctuated count since they had begun their journey, and it was driving him crazy. “Would you shut the hell up!” he growled menacingly, careful to not speak too loudly to avoid drawing attention to himself.
I’m sorry, would you prefer that I sit back and let you continue your stomping through the forest in private? Her tone was reeking of sarcasm, but Reijin took the bite regardless.
“Yes! Yes, actually, I would.”
I haven’t heard anyone else complain. So it sounds like a personal problem to me, she mused.
“No one else comp-” he got out before realizing the depth of the comment. “Woman, I don’t get it. You come to me, knowing exactly what type of person I am, the man who did everything he could to kill your father and failed, and then you want me to do what exactly? Put my life on hold and go steal from the rich and give to the poor like some valiant super hero?” The comment was in no way intended to evoke anyone in particular, but Reijin found himself spitting at the image that appeared before him regardless.
Jun’ai had her own opinion, however, and had no problem throwing her argument on the table. After all, arguing was a better use of her time than sitting inside brooding. If you… If I… Ugh, I would love to take this outside… Her words were intended mostly to vent, and received nothing more than an angry release of air from him. You act like you’ve never done anything without selfish intentions, and yet I’ve seen your past. At that planet just before coming here, you helped them take down that brute that was plowing his way around in there.
He shook his head at the comment. “No, he attacked me. I fucked him up as a result. That’s just how it goes. Kill or be killed.”
Who are you trying to convince? she stressed at him. You sound more interested in justifying your actions to yourself than to me. I don’t even know you, and I really could care less at this point about you. As far as I’m concerned, you are a worthless waste of vat discarded flesh, and nothing is wasted by them. But here you are trying to convince yourself that you are some brooding lone wolf that only cares about he who wipes your ass when that’s not true either. I’ve seen your memories. I know what you accomplished on that asteroid Kala. I know what you have thought within your head during some of the most ruthless moments in your life. I know how you felt when Raditzu, the man you refuse to admin you despise as some rival, slaughtered an entire city and ripped the unborn child from a mother’s womb before killing here when he lost control of his ascendant super saiyan abilities…
“You are going to far,” he warned her once more, focusing quite strongly on his left foot moving ahead of his right foot.
If that man… If that guy can redeem himself and still win one of these tournaments, then so can you.
Reijin stopped, reaching into his bag to pull out the final crab leg he’d saved. “I wouldn’t exactly say he redeemed himself to anyone. I’m sorry, but other than a genetically uncaring changeling, not one person that he will ever have to answer to was involved. We fought the dragon. We earned the wish from this superior being at the cost of Raditzu slaughtering an entire city. We did it all for our own little world.”
Jun’ai fell silent, unable to find an appropriate response to his words.
