"Thems so big words for a man who has forsaken his humanity to beco so…disgusting abomination; let guess, you found an Evolution path that would allow you better to harness the abilities of your little Homunculus puppets." Reaching over my shoulders, I drew my Askrima sticks and held them down by my sides.
"You have quite a mouth on you, but I suppose I must admit, your deductive reasoning is quite high; you see, I’ve been watching you since the mont you stepped foot on the Columbine High School campus, and from the beginning, you appeared to be aware sothing was amiss." Speaking in a calm and friendly manner, Draven descended to the ground a few paces in front of his small army of losers.
"Yet you don’t seem to be aware of my identity; what does that say about YOUR deductive reasoning." Stepping forward, past my brother and the unconscious Sonas, I left behind Piniki and the inscription barrier, singling myself out in case things kicked off.
"My, my, I said, watching, not eavesdropping, young man, be that so, I would like to hear from that sassy mouth of yours who you are."
"? That’s simple, Draven, I am the hope of the universe." Wearing a cocky smirk and ignoring the gasp of surprise coming from my little brother, as he knew the speech I was about to give by heart, I continued walking forward; only with each step I begin radiating particles.
"The hope of the universe?" Reaching up and tucking a lock of lavender hair behind his ear, Draven seed lost by what I was saying, which was what I was going for in the first place.
"I am the answer to all living things that cry out for peace."
"What nonsense are you prattling on about," It’s Xipher 101. The first step in beating soone who is a threat is to throw them off their ga, and with each step it took and the more particles I released, I could tell my words were annoying Draven.
"I am the protector of the innocent."
"Nonsense, I just watched you disregard the lives of millions to protect yourself." Visibly shaken, Draven’s fake smile faded away, revealing a sinister façade hidden under a carefully crafted mask of deceit and lies.
"I am the light in the darkness; I am truth."
"Ally to good! Nightmare to you!"
FOOOOOSHHHHH
With my final line, I arrived so 25 feet from Draven and his army before releasing the full extent of my power, Racial Domination, and Aura, causing more than half of the people behind Draven to shrink back and tremble instantly.
anwhile, Draven, the target of my intimidation, stood rooted in place as my aura blasted his hair like a fierce wind.
"He’s…not Goku…." Regaining consciousness thanks to my brother force-feeding Sonas multiple potions, the annoying fool’s first words were calling out my speech.
"ENOUGH OF THIS!" Slicing his left hand through the air, Draven dispersed my aura with ease, like knocking over a small child.
"You are sentenced to death for the cri of interfering with my plans to bring about a new world order. The ti of Partaevian is upon us, and the Nonbelievers shall perish starting with you." Flaring his Aura and Racial Domination, Draven’s flesh began cracking as if made of molten lava, and faint bits of obsidian stone shone through these cracks.
And while Brenden, Piniki, Sonas, and I jumped back and prepared for battle, the faint flash of icy blue that crossed through my eyes was hidden by my mask before returning to the glowing amber of my Geomancy.
Hook, line, and sinker: ti for the next step. Through my extensive testing, I noticed one thing about my Sub-Talent: it can be masked to hide the color shift in my eyes when I use the primary, allowing for to set the stage to get us out of this unfavorable scenario.
’I wouldn’t do that if I were you, Dravey-Boy,’ Using a few tricks, I disguised my voice and sent a ntal transmission to the three behind along with Draven, and the reaction from Draven, in particular, was drastic, to say the least.
With the dropping of a nickna he hadn’t heard in years entering his mind, the familiar sensation he longed to feel struck the Leader of Partaevian once again.
"It… it’s you, you’re alive…"
If I had to describe the change I was witnessing in Draven, it would be akin to finding a long-lost friend, maybe a lover, whatever it was, it creeped the hell out of , like always.
"What the hell was that? Did you three hear it," taking another step back, I looked over my shoulder and saw Brenden’s eyes flicker with hesitation. Still, he knew better than to question , so he nodded; while Sonas was too confused by having soone in his head to respond, only Piniki gave a weak "Yes,"
’Hoh hum, quite a little predicant you’ve found yourself in, Dravey, but let advise you on one thing: that boy there, Nexus, is not soone you can handle yet, and even if you threw all the bodies you have on hand, it would rely be a waste of ti, and resources, we wouldn’t want that now would we?’
"Xipher…it’s you, it’s really you, are you here, where are you? I’ve longed to et you again. Life has beco so dull since you left us, but now you’re here, in the past, and we can pick up where we left off."
"Xipher? Did you just fucking say Xipher? That can’t be possible; he’s long dead!" I growled while lowering my stance with my eyes darting around, looking for any sign of…well, myself, I guess.
’Heh, a sha I don’t have ti to play around with you right now, Nexus; unfortunately, unlike my poor disciple Dravey here, my plans haven’t been hindered by you…yet, however…..’
’Draven, I have told you before, and I will warn you one last ti, do not step on my plots; this boy, heh, he and those fools behind him are the lead actors in one of my plays. So don’t go ssing with my pawns so early.’
"Yes, of course, Xipher, anything for you,"
’And one last thing, this whole acting like thing you are trying to do, tone it down a bit, will you, Dravey-Boi? Everyone knows that while I am often Imitated, I am never replicated.’
’There will only ever be one Xipher, so take care and never forget that, Ta ta for now.’
