Battling Chizuni On Familiar Grounds

the General would be waiting atop a small branch for Chizuni. HE had nothing better to do at the time.

*There would be a sudden movement below, as I would appear, walking on the muck and water that was mixed together in the swamp. I would continue to walk towards the General, as I eyed him. Having had my home attacked not to long before, having someone 'forgien' so close to the village was getting on my nerves*

"Yes......?"

*I would say, stopping under the General, as I continued to stare at him, my arms crossed now, as I waited for an answer*

"I fear that the upcoming attack on the Depths village might mean the endangerment of this village. I would like to ask you if you are willing to join a force that will try and stop Gig and others. and then we may have a little spar" the General would say.

"I'm the one asking the questions here, Buko....First off, we were already attacked....and by people who were strangely familiar to you.... "

*I would say, as I pointed a finger blazing with Kujo-ku at the General's chest. My eyes had just turned venousmous green, as they narrowed in anger*

"Another of them dropped this.....? Care to explain....?"

*I would say, as I pulled out the Soul Reaver with my other hand, as I continued to stare at the General, my patients disappearing fast, as I waited*

Spoiler:

"That's Kristi's sword" the General said wondering how she got hold of it.

"I have nothing to do with Erik. that is who I am assuming you had met, or an Erikall. Either way I have nothing to do with him."the General said.

"Oh really.....and how do I know your not lying...?"

*I would say, as my eyes continued to narrow. I wasn't sure he was lying, but I wasn't going to let him off easy. I wanted answers either way*

the General would summon forth a seat then sit down.

"Does any part of me look or feel like it wants to kill or harm? King Erik's goal is to simply eradicate all living beings that want to live and survive. Being like humans or elfs per say, anything really that wished to be stronger and stray of it's natural path of evolution. One can call him god in a way." the General would say before resting his elbows on his knees.

"and then there is that sword. That sword is the Soul Reaver. Makes one mightily fast. Allows them to turn to mist so they cant be harmed. Allowed them to force push, manipulate fire and lighting. Hell it can even rip the blood from a very person and much more" the General said knowing a lot about that specific sword.

actually the General knew a lot about lots of things.

"Hmm and the owner of that sword was Kristi a former Sona and master swords-woman" the General said.

*I would look at the General for a few more moments before sheathing the Soul Reaver, and started to pace back and forth in front of the General*

"Alright, alright....what can you tell me about these people...? This Erik, Erikall, and Kristi, if she is still alive...."

*I would ask, as I continued to pace*

"Erik and Erikall are the same person. The Erikall is merely a Hologram copy of himself just as I have the Cloneral. Kristi is dead as far as I know. Erik favors any attack that seems impossible to avoid such as black holes and super novas as well as voids and dimension where you cant escape. Erik was the King of the E.A.S.T. Empire before he left and declared war with a small armada of ships. Thats when I was promoted from Representative to Supreme Representative" the General said.

*I would continue to pace back and forth as I listened, and continued even after the General had stopped, and while I talked*

"So, the person we fought was only a clone...? Than the person from before must be more powerful than the one that we fought....Does this Erik have any weaknesses.....or counterparts...?"

*I would ask, concerned that there my be more out there like him*

"Weakness, if my 500 some odd years of looking for one hasn't been successful I'd say no" the General said.

"As for counterparts his only one was Kristi but she has long since passed away" the General said not knowing about Gerold

"Wait, so if your saying that the Kristi has been dead for quite some time....who was it that I fought that had this....?"

*I would say, indicating the Soul Reaver. The news that Erik had no apparent weaknesses disturbed me greatly, but I was more befuldled by this other thing that came up*

"Must have been one of her copies a Hologram of her former self. He's always going on about how he wants her back and bases his ideals on the ideal she told him. It's a little twisted really" the General said.

"I see...."

*I would say, continuing to pace, as I was now at a lost for words. There was no apparent weakness of this guy, and we had only fought holograms of him too. Things weren't looking good if we had to fight him again*

"Wait, and you said something else before...about an attack on the Depths, and also.....an allience to stop someone....?"

"Gig another antagonist is planning on attacking the Depths to settle some score he has with Rozalyn" the General would say.

"Is that all he wants....?"

*I would ask, as soon as I heard what Gig was after. I was no fan of Roz, and thus, if this Gig had no other interest than beating her, I didn't see much harm in it, unless his revenge carried over elsewhere....*

"If he's like all the other bad guys he probably won't stop after getting her" the General would say.

"I see...."

*I would say, sighing...I as stopped pacing and leaned against a tree*

"So, is this Gig guy working with Erik...?"

"If I know Erik, and trust me we were best friends. Erik would never ally with anyone. Why? Because that'd open a week point up. Gig I know has at least 3 others operating under him. And he has a daughter named Rosary" the General wold say.

"I see....a daughter...?"

*I would say, frowning slightly. Odd, I'd never seen a bad guy of any kind have family. But, I guess not all bad guys are as twisted as the ones I've seen*

"Wait, have you met these people, Gig, Rosery, and whomever else is working with him....?"

*I would say, finding it odd that the General knew so much about them...or even their names*

"I have met Gig who lead me to Roze whom almost got me killed. I have also met Rosary who doesn't seem to be like the rest" the General said.

"What do you mean, 'doesn't seem like the rest'....?"

*I would ask, thinking this might lead on to something*

"Rosary seems kinder and didn't deceive me into something. I may and if I am she won't be hard to defeat" the General said.

"I'm not sure defeating her is the answer..."

*I would say, as I continued to think, a small sly smile crossing my face, as I continued on*

"If she is indeed kinder than the rest, perhaps she can be turned against her father....and made to see our side of things....perhaps she could be recruited to our side...."

*I would say, wondering if such a thing would work. It would....but it would take alot of work and planning, as it isn't too easy to separate family members, or turn them against eachother*

"We could do that. Yes that seems like the way to do it. If all else fails resort to the second plan. I know Gig uses Electromagnetic Energy which creates a field that negates all forms of energy inside it. I have developed a shield as a counter measure but I lack the offensive power to do anything" the General would say

"Do you have anyway to unlock a certain trait in anyone" the General would say.
