Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dee said, "Well, it's simply that Lily's psychic powers aren't fully developed yet like mine are. I have spent extra time developing my own powers, so that is likely the reason. I can already tell that you are leaning towards just giving the relationship with Chazz a try and using the leash idea. tee hee hee. I mean, it is a much simpler route to go than to try something totally different. Andy knew he could go gay because it was a very popular thing and he knew exactly who his type was, so there wasn't much work for that. With Iori and Bardock... well, that one was a bit more trying on Iori's part. Then again, Iori is still stuck with only half of that curse cured. He must have two partners at all times in order to be fully cured of that Orochi curse. Its one thing that Iori hides. Once a year, Iori becomes the total opposite of what he is. Right now he's as kind as ever, which is sort of different than what he's used to. He's not usually this socialble. I think he's just doing this as a favor to me because he is sooo grateful for what I did for him for many years now. I also foresee that the Orochi Clan as Ash knows it will turn for the better. Believe it or not, because Ash and Iori left the clan, the clan will try and follow their example now because they were stronger than their own. Yeah, sure, right now they think Iori and Ash are no longer worthy, but that won't be for always. There is still the Blue, the Black, leaders of their own followers to show that the current way is not a good example for the Orochi clan. Iori was the first to break free and it has taken him a long time to become welcome to most. He has proven himself time and time again. I have helped him, of course, but I never jeopardized his powers for what they are. And in fact, he is stronger because of it. You saw what happened to Ash Crimson when Jonathan appeared. Ash fainted! That was a shocker, but then I remembered how Iori would have reacted if Terry had not in fact interfered that one time when Geese was involved. Since then, Iori has had to retrain his powers on his own. His old powers were still sealed and locked within that gem that Soiree now holds. It is possible for Soiree to unleash what Iori is truly capable of, however, all three stones must be in vicinity of one another and they must be placed like in the Hyrulean triangle. Iori must be in the center of that to gain his full power back. Though, from the way I have seen him, he doesn't want that power back. He'd rather have it sealed. Pretty strong for someone to want that. Don't you agree? To retrain oneself to become better, now that would be someone I would like to follow with a clan as notable as the Orochi."

Sangcun held onto Ash's hands lovingly. She said, "We won't allow anyone to hurt Lily now will we? Not even Orochi himself! We have to prove to your leader that what you did, what Iori did first, and what Lily did was to prove that the race can be better than it was. More powerful without having to rely on stones and be a welcome in the communities. Being hated is not my idea of being someone great. That has brought you sooo much pain, Ash, you couldn't fully develop of what flame you were supposed to represent, which was yellow not green. Granny is the green flame leader and she may not seem like a warrior of your kind now does she, sweetheart? Nah, she hides it quite well. Oh but when in battle, she is fearless, ruthless and scary. I have the scene of the death match of her and Benimaru Nikaido."

Presenting Ash with a portable viewer, Sangcun inserted the disc that contained the scene of the battle with Dee and Benimaru. The look on Dee's face was one of worry as if she wasn't entirely prepared for it and knowing she was at a disadvantage with a sword in her hand.

Then, when the battle took place, it was almost a blur. Sang put it on slow motion to show the five vital slices Dee made. The first to the genitals. The Second, third and fourth to the back, and the last to the head.

It was also the first time Jason saw this clip.

Ash watched the video. He had expected them to show something like this. He noticed how shaken up Jason was and said " I take that he's never seen anything like this before. I guess you won't want to here about some of the stories the orochi would tell us about Lily."

Lily looked at Ash. In this galaxy she really didn't show the power that Ash was talking about. She would sometimes use it for Halloween.

Jason blushed deeply, then replied, "Well, just because I have a weak gut does not mean I am not qualified to be better than both Ken and my father Ryu in medicine. Like you, Sangcun, I am a gifted kid! And is it any wonder? I was born to empress dee! I am her true firstborn. Will is an adopted kid as well as Bernard, Chantelle, Dimples, Jason Bogard, and Tiffany Bogard. I am her first natural! My birthdate is October 14, 1994."

Jason then pointed out, "Why is it surprising to you, Ash? I mean, she is an orochi warrior by the looks of things and right now, she's your superior. Though that won't last. Once you become the yellow flame, she'd be below you. The order of the Orochi goes according to flame color, right? I mean for who is superior to who. I have done little research into the Orochi, but there isn't much to go on except keep their flame lit at all times. They are sooo much like a Charmander, Charmeleon, and a Charizard type its almost scary. Put out their flame and they can die."

Iori replied, "Of course, Bardock right away. And you're right, it is odd that he hasn't shown yet. He's usually very prompt, especially when it comes to big shindigs like this."

Heading out into the night, he knew why Torah couldn't make it. He lit his finger to use the purple flame and it seemed of little use. Though it was better than transforming in this and going all purple.

Lily waiting to see if Ash was going to follow after Iori. But All Ash did was sit there.

Lily said " Ash Aren't you going to follow Iori?"

Ash replied " No not with all that snow."

Lily said to him telepathy " I suggest that If you don't want that little vampire saiyan sitting next to get mad at you. You get off your butt and follow Iori."

Ash nodded and got off his seat. He then lit his fingers and took off after Iori.

Sangcun followed Ash, but not before saying, "Lily, you meanie! Didn't you hear what Uncle Jason Hoshi said? Ash will die out there in that snow! If he dies, you're dead, you hear me, Lily Meira?!"

At that, she went out into the snow and made sure she was dressed for the weather. Her crimson aura lit the way and it wasn't long before she found Ash not too far from the house collapsed!

She lifted Ash's unconscious body and whispered as she dragged him back inside, "You were very brave Ash Crimson. I don't blame you for this. I blame Lily Meira. You didn't want to go out for your own safety, but that Mrs Meira tried making you go. Don't worry though, sweetie, I will nurse you back to health. And the first thing I am going to do, is draw us both a hot bath."
