Roxsenne wandered down the empty city streets of Central City in full regalia and her lovely black hair twisted behind her in a fine pony tail. She had on her living, steel gray armor with a brown and white tunic underneath and a sword she had taken from a market stall at her hip. It was never going to be as good as the one from Castelle, but such a sword would do her fine for her time on Earth. Her blue gray eyes gazed around the street and she wondered, "Where is everyone?"
Then she noticed a large TV on a screen connected to a building above her. "An incident has occurred at the King's Castle, as far as witnesses say it has been a dangerous battle, but apparently the enemy has won possibly. These are just rumors and we at the news station are still investigating, however, we advise all citizens to stay inside. Possible chances of looting have begun to occur."
Suddenly, a TV set dropped from the sky and a guy in a ski mask cackled as Roxsenne sensed and dodged the falling equipment. "Let's start looting guys!"
A shout of "Yeah!" erupted from the TV building she had been standing in front and without warning grenades flew out the window. She turned around and started to run, using her cape as a shield and activated her Self Energy Barrier. Running down the street, the grenades erupted into white smoke and she thought, "What sort of sorcery is this?"
Bullets sprayed from within the smoke, seeing as the looters had clearly seen her, but luckily all of them bounced off the thin blue energy shield closely encasing her body. She had no idea what was going on, but she ducked down a side corridor sticking off the street and hid behind a street dumpster. She was definitely going to get to the bottom of this since things appeared to clearly be rowdy still in Central City. With all the fire, thieves, alien attacks, trouble at the castle, etc. Roxsenne wondered now just how safe this place was compared to her own home. She hoped never to bring this riffraff back to her home world, but as it stood she was many thousands of Zeni short of ever getting back home.

As Roxenne was hiding behind the dumpster, a new sound would greet her ears.
For Brandon, who wasnt too far away, heard the shooting as he was unaware of what events were transpiring at the castle, and came running to see looters, and chaos erupting in the city. Smashed TV sets, smoke, fire, and pillaging aliens were everywhere. He couldnt see who else was there, but masked people were everywhere.
"Hey! Over there! Another bystander! Get him!" Brandon heard one of the masked men say, as several of them with crobars and axes came at him. "This is getting out of hand. Lets deal with these people before someone gets hurt!" Brandon said, as his bracelet glowed softly as he added "Shield! Projection! Empowered!" as he foritifed himself with all 3 of his abilities, and took a good swing at the lead attacker, and the force of his abilities caused his punch to make the fiend go flying back, and slammed into the dumpster that Roxenne was hiding behind.
"The fuck?! Hes one of those fighters! Kill him!" Brandon heard another masked fiend say, as his ears picked up the sound of a gun's safety being turned off, and he felt something take ahold of his body. "Verlith?! What are you..." Brandon thought, as he felt his body move on its own, as it quickly grabbed a nearby park bench, ripped it up from the ground, and hurled it at the gunman. As it smashed into him, the gun flew from his hand,and Brandon leapt up and grabbed it.
"There ya go...Your welcome." Brandon heard, as he regained control of his body. He held the weapon in his hands as he gazed over to his remaining attacks and said "BOO!" as the majority of the looters suddenyl started to panic and run away.
"Holy shit, I cant beleive I just did that!" He said to himself as he put the handgun on his belt for later use. "Thats becuase your body is slowly improving. The more you train it, the more your capable of..."

After Brandon's spectacle of strength Roxsenne sneaked out from behind the dumpster and rushed Brandon from behind attempting to smack him in the back of the head with the gauntlet on her right hand. "You idiot!" she cried as most of the looters ran in terror mainly from him rather then her.
"I was trying to capture all those guys and gals, or was going to eventually until you showed up again!" Her aura flared and whereas his power proved only capable of currently ripping out a park bench with ease hers blew up a majority of the glass lighting fixtures and windows in that block of the neighborhood. It was a great annoyance that the one known as Brandon had come now because he had tried to do her job for her. The police, she figured, had handed over the job of primarily protecting the city to her since she was the only one currently not fighting the threat in the monarch's castle, whatever that threat really was. Rumors were starting to go about a possible power shift in Earth was occurring aliens, demons, or beings from another dimension were out and about.

Bradnon was still spooked at what he had done, when he felt a sudden whack to the back of his head that made him stumble forward. But he quickly turned to see who his attacker was, and saw a really pissed off Roxenne. After her calling him an idiot, and what she was planning to do before he ruined it, he replied "Hey, Dont get all snarky with me! The Park Bench wasnt my idea, it was Verlith's! doing! I just punched the one guy, and that was only in self defense!" as he glared at her as he rubbed his sore head.
"Something tells me, that she still thinks that your a crazy person, and I dont exist... If that happens, See if you can make physical contact with her, and Ill talk to her." Brandon heard Verlith say to him, which somewhat shocked him. "Wait, you can do that?" He asked, as he turned away from Roxenne slightly, so it wouldnt seem too awkward.
"Of course, Im merely speaking to you becuase of your physical contact with your relic. Touching her will be similar, and will allow me to communicate with her. But since you are the 'buffer', I will not be able to...influence her in any way." Verlith continued, and just the idea was making him creeped out. "Creepy Verlith...Creepy..."

Roxsenne began to hear him talk to himself a bit after he yelled at her and watched Brandon turn away from him. "This is really odd," she told herself but then said aloud, "I don't know who this Verlith is, but if he's connected to you somehow please tell him he's stupid. You just made a ton of looters run away and because they know this planet better then I do they can hide here. Now I have only one option."
She unsheathed the sword she was carrying at her hip and walked towards a building. It began to glow as she fed it ki and used it and the power of her sword's most basic technique to cut out a large chunk of stone. The building began to rumble from its lost cornerstone, but it did not fall.
Looking back at Brandon she uttered, "I now have to cut down every building in town to find them."
--
Meanwhile, out towards the city limits three black jeeps with four groups of three sat at the edge of the city with built in GPS systems and ki scouters. One of them, a blond woman with blue eyes and a black jump suit watched the ki scouter's power rating rise and attached it to her right eye. "Ma'am," a woman sitting in the seat next to her with black hair and green eyes stated, "We've got a hit on unusual power readings."
"You mean besides the one in the castle nobody's gone to take care of yet?" the woman answered. "I know that the city has warriors fighting for the president/ king in his own castle, but it irks me that regular military force has not been brought to the table yet, and, I, Sarah Bloomington will not stand for NEON to sit on its butt all day."
"That's the thing... The military's giving us a green light. They want us to investigate sudden structural damage outside the castle's immediate area. Small earth quake or tremor possibly."
Sarah stomped on the pedal and within seconds her jeep and three others began to move towards the source of power that Roxsenne had created with her attack. She shouted back at the other three jeeps, "Prep all your weapons now! We're going in hot and if we're lucky we're going to bag us an alien! Let's move people!" All the agents in the other vehicles began to load shotguns, machine guns, and small caliber hand guns with enough bullets to storm a building. It would probably not be enough, but it was certainly going to cause some damage to their unexpected target. Now was the time to bring on NEON.

Brandon laughed, as he replied "He knows hes stupid, thats why I tried to remove the damn bracelet multiple times, but its sealed to me. If you wanna talk to him, just take my ha....nd..." as he watched Roxenne suddenly unsheathe her weapon, and actually take out a chunk of a nearby building, claiming that she had to tear appart the city piece by piece.
"Whoa Whoa Roxenne! Thats not the way to do it! with all that destruction, dont you think they would run away still?! We have to play the waiting game, and wait for them to come out on their own." He said, hoping to stop her before she would cause some major damage to the city. "Protectors dont destroy what they protect!" He added, unaware that both of them were about to have some company of the more uncomfortable kind.
"Besides, If my theory is correct, We can find a 'scouter' and possibly find them that way."

As Brandon tried to stop Roxsenne from committing to her her actions the sounds of cars, or rather jeeps reached her ears. She simply told him, "I don't think we need this 'scouter'. Something is already on its way here."
Down the street four jeeps screeched to a halt and Sarah and her small group of agents open fired on them in three lines of guns. "Everyone reload! And prep the KELLY!" she screamed as she chucked a grenade behind the stream of incoming bullets and waited to see what happened. Roxsenne, having sensed this stepped in front of Brandon and took all the incoming shotgun, hand gun, and machine gun bullets for him by using her armor and her mobile energy barrier. It helped block most of the projectiles yet when the grenade came in behind her she was sent flying leaving Brandon exposed though completely unscathed.
In the back of the fourth jeep, a large vat would rise up from the back seat and three strange, twisty straws would rise up from it. Inside was a serum called KELLY, Kinetic Energy Laser Launching Yogurt and what it did was quite amazing. Three of the agents in this vehicle, not shooting at the time gripped the straws and the driver cried, "GO!"
They drank as fast as they could emptying a quarter of the tank with their ferocious sipping. With puckered lips and full bellies they faced Brandon and let out three massive burps that brought up energy from their stomachs and caused them to shoot very atypical mouth blasts at the young man. Roxsenne, who was still soaring in the air, hit the pavement and watched in disgust, horror, and and amazement as the peasants she slightly hated found themselves now capable of shooting attacks of her caliber back at her and Brandon.
"Brandon!" she cried in horror. He was about to be killed by guys eating yogurt. It was so disturbing.

"What the is going on here?!" He said, as Roxenne was infront of him before he knew what was happening. Jeeps had arrived, and opened fire with multiple firearms, but Roxenne blocked their shots, but when a grenade was added to the mix, he shouted "Roxenne!" as he watched her get thrown away.
his ears picked up a new sound, as he saw another jeep with a Vat of liquid, and some of the men started to drink it, becoming bloated. "The... ?" He asked himself, as they suddenly let loose their attack, a burp accompanied with a nasty looking laser. "Shield!" He quickly said, as a barrier of his chaos energy came up, and the attacks hit dead on, causing quite a bit of smoke and debris to fly up.
For a moment, it would seem that Brandon was annhilated. But as the smoke cleared, NEON and Roxenne would see that Brandon was a hell of a lot more then what meets the eye, as his shield was still up, and Brandon was unharmed. Some debris had landed on him, but he was fine. ", that stinks!" He said as the shield faded for the time being. "Ill take care of these people Roxenne, Just get to safety!" He said, unaware of who he was really dealing with. "Infusion!" He said, as he used his transformation technique infront of people for the first time, as his bracelet glowed brightly, and soon 'evolved' into a fingerless gauntlet, of an alien design.
He took out his handgun with the gauntlet hand, and aied it at the jeep that help the Vat. "Empowered!" He said, making the weapon glow with energy, as he squeezed the trigger. Any weapon he held was effected by his empowered technique, making them twice as deadly as their original counterpart. He took aim, and fired the weapon.
And what would surprise most people, since the gun originally fired metal bullets...Brandons Empowered version fired a small, but powerful energy bullet right at the Vat.
If Brandons theory was right, his shot would pierce the Vat, and eitehr put holes in it, draining the fluid, or destroy it completely. Unfortunately for Brandon, as he was inexperienced with hand guns, the recoil of the weapon caused it to kick back, and smack him in the face. "Ow!"

Roxsenne lay there in shock. Brandon's bullet whizzed through the air and because it was moving so fast Sarah barely had time to cry, "Everybody move!" The three jeeps that were able to drove at high speed towards Brandon while continuing to fire their weapons. In hindsight though this was bad idea because the fourth jeep that was unable to move exploded along with the vat sending out a massive shock wave that tore through building frames and flipped the three traveling jeeps right over Brandon's head.
Each landed face down, but not before Sarah and most of her agents jumped out of their seats and attempted to avoid their impending crash with the asphalt. Among them, the girl with black hair and green eyes survived and although she Sarah and the others rolled across the ground like sacks of meat they somehow survived and stood up.
Sarah laughed as she got up from the ground with her gun, pointed it at Brandon, and uttered, "You thought you killed us, well, say hello to Dr. Bacteria's MEAT. 'Mighty Enhancement Action Tablets'. Count off our agents Mocha!" She looked back at the black haired girl with a grin on her bloody lips and then turned back to point her hand gun at Brandon.
"Ma'am out of the sixteen agents, that include yourself and I, we now have nine left. Four died in the explosion just now and three in the resulting crash." It angered Sarah, but she kept her weapon pointed at Brandon's back and said, "Stick them up!"
Roxsenne got to her feet after Brandon's amazing, but ridiculous feat and asked, "Um, what are you going to do with only nine humans against us?" She drew her sword and pointed it in Sarah's direction intent on cutting them down if Brandon was shot at.

Brandon was surprised that his shot did more then he had intended. "The tank must of been pressurized. That could only explain it." he thought as more Mayhem erupted around him. It wasnt until things had...cooled down that he saw that some of the 'agents' were still remaining, and a couple had pointed their weapons at him.
"Killing people had not been my intention. It was only intended to disable that....gross weapon of yours..." He said, as he had a look at the one called Sarah, who was talking to him, and the other girl who was refered to as Mocha. What he noticed, made his skin grow cold. "Why is it that evil chicks have to be so attractive? I dont get it..." He thought, as Verlith slapped his mind and replied "Dont fantasize about the enemy brandon! You still have atleast two counts left before your body tires itself out, Make the most of it!"
Brandon was back to staring at Sarah's weapon, rather then her body as he glared at her. He heard Roxenne get up to her feet and speak, as he said without turning his head. "No Roxenne, Your not going to kill anyone..." but then Brandon heard a familiar voice in his head say "Fuck it, Im driving!" as Verlith took control of Brandons body again temporarily, as he made his arm holding the handgun hold up his fire arm again, and pointed it right at Sarah's head.
And when he spoke, his voice was altered. It was deeper, and more sinister sounding. And Brandons eyes were not brown anymore, but a bloody red colour to match the kind of Dragon Verlith was. "Drop YOUR weapon, or else Ill make your head the same as that Vat we shot!"
Back in Brandons mind, Verlith and Brandon had seemingly switched places for the time being, as he could see what he was doing, but it was like sitting in a theater watching it. "The fuck? Verlith! Give me back control now!"

Roxsenne stopped moving. Sarah and all her then dropped their weapons and said, "Fine, we'll leave, but that lady you're protecting is a matter of national security. She's not from here as far as we know and is too dangerous to leave alive. We'll respect your wish though and leave."
"All troops move out! Inform Dr. Bacteria his KELLY weapon was an utter failure! Though these MEAT pills do wonders for near fatal injuries!" Mocha shouted. She and Sarah began to walk away and moved her neck from side to side to find that her nearly broken neck from their crash was completely healed. It was a good thing they had taken these pills before the fight, but they would certainly need more fire power to catch up with Brandon and Roxsenne. At current, Sarah and Mocha topped out at one thousand power while their troops only topped out at two hundred. Compared to them they were weaklings, but compared to the X-Fighters, their underlings, Brandon and Roxsenne would be in for some trouble if they called them now. Glen, the strongest of the X-Fighters was still having his arm repaired, but he had a power of ninety thousand on a typical day. Erica Bronsworth, the second member of the X-Fighters, had forty five thousand on a typical day and the other two had five thousand and ten thousand on a normal day. The thing was that neither of them, nor the other had come in this raid.
It seemed rather Roxsenne. She looked at Brandon as she sensed their power and said, "Watch out, these two are weak, but they have two to four underlings who could kill us. One, a guy named Glen, was someone whose arm I cut off in a fight and the other, a girl named Erica is in police custody. I don't know when the other two will strike with either of them, but just watch out here."

as they accepted their surrender, and started their retreat, Verlith relenquished control back to Brandon just intime for Brandon to admire Sarah's and Mocha's butss, making his cheeks turn red as his eyes returned to normal, as did his voice before his bodies energy dialed down early which allowed him to keep standing as he turned and looked at Roxenne. "A Thank you would of sufficed to. Didnt I just save your life?" he asked as he had a cocky smile on his face.
For the first time, Brandon had actually done some good with his new powers, and boy did it feel good. "Those two may be weak...but fuck...nice asses..." He said, blushing a bit before Verlith growled, and gave him another mental slap. "Ow! Damn it Verlith!" He said as he stumbled a bit.
"What did I tell you about fantasizing about the enemy? No! That will only lead to trouble!" He heard, as Brandon sighed. "Anyways... You ok? That Grenade sent you flying pretty good..."

"I'm fine," Roxsenne told them as the enemies began to walk away. For a moment, her bare skin and tunic would be visible across her torso until her armor re-fused together and covered this up. She noticed before this happened though that Brandon was staring at the buttocks of both her enemies and did not like this. The guy was totally lewd since day one.
She grit her teeth and also noticed that they might not be done. Above them in the buildings people with small energy signatures were moving into place. Then Sarah pulled out a radio and said, "All remaining agents go with 'Plan B' ice Dr. Bactria the fine man who gave us the silly KELLY invention and MEAT pills then nullify the pill's effects with your hand held injectors."
Sarah proceeded to put a sharp need to her shoulder and jabbed it deep into her skin. She pressed down then pulled out to eject a small pink liquid with a strange white pill floating inside. Her head felt a little woozy, but over her radio set she could hear her the sounds of her troops groaning as they ejected their pills. Next came the sound of gun fire, and a scream, and finally, silence. That had been the man known as Dr. Bactria and the inventor of their crazy inventions.
Mocha then was handed the radio and she uttered, "All units prepare to fire now." Bullets shattered through the glass above and unlike before these bullets belonged to heavy, mounted machines so the fired projectiles were an inch long and supposed capable of causing great damage. She only hoped like Sarah that they could break through any shields or force that Brandon and Roxsenne intended to use.
Roxsenne gawked at the trickery. She then turned and said, "Run!" as she dashed away from the scene of the filled cars and the agents now walking away from her and Brandon in the opposite direction. Though she was powerful she had yet to think to use her full power to crush humans. Azazel had kind of hinted against not doing this in the past, even though the humans were mere peasants to her mostly. Only a slim few could challenge her.

As Brandons counter for his infusion ability ran out, Brandons gauntlet returned to its normal bracelet, as he saw that 'NEON' wasnt finished with them, and had set up a trap on most of the rooftops, as he saw many high calibur automatic weapons poised and ready to fire.
"Damn it all...Im drained to..." He said, as he took his chances with the building that Sarah had been standing atop, as Brandon struggled to quickly make his way over to it, and jumped inside. He had a feeling that bullets would fly at any nanosecond, and he had to find cover. Roxsenne might of had the energy to bolt of running, but Brandon didnt.
He did his best to craw behind multiple stone pillars that supported the building, as he then hid behind a stone counter. He had seen them provide more then adequate protection in movies, and hoped that it would be enough to protect him. If they wanted him, They would have to come in after him, or risk causing too much damage to the building. "God damn it all... Now would be a good time for a Red bull..."

"Get moving!" Roxsenne cried as she ran from the bullets clattering behind her into the pavement. She dared not look bac at Brandon who was now pinned down behind a building and thought, "I best leave this fool. He's ruined a perfectly good day for me, and if I do, they'll surely chase me rather then him."
She noticed as she finished this thought the guns were not slowly pointing at her and used her self energy barrier to block the bullets in conjunction with using her armor. It seemed that however many people were shooting at them now had all their sights focused on her instead of him. It would be a good time to run for Brandon if he did not want to get killed in this situation. Sarah laughed from the building she was now on with Mocha and said, "Wow, aliens are so fun to toy with even though we're so weak compared to them. Find a helpful human and use them as bait and the alien they help tends to crumble."
Mocha nodded in agreement until an arrow out from a building across from them and hit her directly in the chest. She collapsed onto the roof of the building stone cold dead and a man in black armor with a crossbow attached to his wrist gave a thumbs up. This man was Cons-ante de La Rein and was Roxsenne's personal squire. What he was doing there was a mystery though generally in most situations he would keep an observational agenda open when it came to her and her actions since she was the princess, and now official queen of her home world.
Sarah gawked in horror and collapsed to her knees yelling into her radio, "Find the killer! Find them now!" If anything, now was definitely a good time for Roxsenne and her new friend to leave and he could see his upcoming queen taking to the road at speeds faster then a highway transport vehicle.
"Wow, trying to clock fifty on a city street are we?" he noted as he watched her bend her shoulder down and ram through a building wall with very little grace. Her next escape hole would be much simpler as she used the edge of her radiating blade to perform a circular slash with her Star Sword technique. This would slow her down for a moment, but when she hopped over the broken frame and beyond the original site of the attack area she picked up her speed again and ran until she could not breath anymore. Hopefully, the confusion he provided had saved the lives of the people it needed to.
