Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sai closed her fingers into a fist as if she caught something in her gras, as it caused the portal to suddenly close making Tegral loose his balance from the shifting force. The beast dashed forward infront of Sai, and growled as a sonic Dark wave was shot, from its mouth as a shield for any misleading attack form his cannon that would be sent towards them, as the attack would be shallowed into a dark void, and sent behind the tower into the forest.

Tegral's wordless snarl errupted the cannon on his arm, but it's aim shifted slightly. Instead of aiming for Sairys and her little monster it aimed for the strange portal of wind. Fire blazed violently as the air was consumed in plasmic fury. The sheer energy required to produce a bolt of plasma was intense the air around the stream of unreal energy scortch away, without even becomeing super heated as one might expect.

Tegral's plan was to create enough of an energy distortion to destroy the portal, assumeing that Sairys did infact use some sort of energy (whether that be arcane, mystic, spiritual or what ever) to create her little portal.

"Well then. That's everything. You are officially combat-functional." Having said that, KB moved to the underbelly of the unit and opened a panel. Checking a couple of things one last time, he nodded. There was no use in him still being inside his body, now that his work was done. The mechanical body of KB would move to a chair and power down for the moment. The unit was well within contact range via a different source. The unit itself shifted a couple of times, before it simply vanished entirely. KB didn't like the idea of moving the unit via magic, given the variables. However, he didn't really haev much choice in this case.

Tegral straightend himself, patting at the dust on his pant legs. "Fine, you said you could help me," Tegral repeated, "How do you think," Putting a high emphasis on the word think Tegral reconfigured his plasma cannon to take the form of his right arm. The truth of the matter was Sairys had very little Tegral could, or would, want. Her mastery was, apparently, in bio-mechanics, while Tegral was more into the weapon development and hard packed science of artificial intelligence. "You can help me?" He finished in a resoundingly smug tone of voice.

Tegral drew a slow breath, an act more for show then actual need, and exhaled slowly. No, definately not a good idea to get tangled up with the woman. A sickening sweet smile twisted it's way onto Tegral's lips as he started after Sairys. A slow walk, one that she would easily be able to outpace if she moved at a brisk walk.

"Sairys, I believe your name was. Hold on just a moment." Tegral's sensory system placed a grid over the Emeral Tower, seismic readers pulsing each time his worn boots touched the earth. Ionic read outs piled across the right side of his HUD, a rough estimate of the structure bloomed to life just below the read outs. A targeting system sprouted to life and targeted the tower behind Sairys, and her little pet. The woman, however, was excluded from this rather hostile evaluation. Bio-graphs attempted to gather information on the life forms inside the structure while an electro-graph searched for any artifical intelligence.

For once, since he was rebuilt, Tegral surrendered, willingly, to the strange flamelike haze. That heatless, lightless, haze that engulfed his body, starting from his feet and working upwards. Slowly, each and every inch of his body was changing. The gleaming silver of untouched metalic skeletal structure, the scortched black of metal that had been affected by Draeken's fire. The burnt and charred clothing being eaten away and replaced as the fire enveloped his body.

"I can't, nor could any man, ignore such a beautiful prize infront of his eyes." Hidjie said, the medium length of golden hair resting lazily on his head. His eyes of crystalized azure blue had a soft twinkle to them as he continued walking closer to Sairys. "I apollogize, but I believe we've gotten off on the wrong footing." Turning his head to the left, slightly, he bowed his head in respect and stopped walking. "My name is Hidjie," He rolled his hand infront of his chest, in an elegant gesture, and stopped holding his outstretched hand, palm upwards, towards Sairys, "And you are?" His smile made him seem boyish, but his eyes, and his body, made him out to be the man that he was. Entering into his thirties, maybe at best, Hidjie still retained that sort of charm that the younger men possessed.

Hidjie's smile faltered and shattered for a moment as he straightened himself out. Now standing errect his smile was back. "Good dog." he murmured softly to the animal sitting beside Sairys, though he obviously hadn't taken his eyes off Sairys or else he would have noticed some key differences between that...thing...and a dog, for starters the empty eye sockets would have been a dead giveaway.

"I believe you misunderstood my intentions, my dear. I'm just asking you for a name. Or wait...do angels have names?" He paused, silently pondering his question. "No, of course not...you must be Venus." He smiled up at her, "Or maybe Aphrodites? No wait, you must be Cytherea!"

"Sairys? Goddesses yern for such a name" Hidjie cooed softly as he folded his arms, muscular without appearing too bulky, over his chest to nod, agreeing with his previous statement. "Sairys..." He tested the name on his tongue, decided it had a sort of bitter sweet taste to it, and smiled. For the first time since Hidjie had come out he had just noticed the creature and recoiled almost instantly. "Whoa!! What the hell is that thing?!" He shouted as his hand immediately went for the stark black handgun inside of his finely pressed suit's jacket. Black, darker then the night, the faberic rustled slightly in the breeze. It's silky smooth texture gently rubbing and sliding against Hidjie's body.
