Welcome to Gaia! ::

(Hi my little fox, welcome to the party!)

Sensing a battered mana signature within the the trees her gaze lifted toward the man she had only met in fleeting moments prior. To her knowledge he was supposedly some sort of Knight from another world or time. Whichever one it was she couldn't remember. Shrugging she raised her hand to wave and then thought of how ackward it appeared in the tenseness of the moment.

It was strange it felt odd to be amongst so many other inviduals for so long. Lately all she had been doing was reading status reports on Dark Unks and developing her alchoholic antidote. With that completed she had ventured out of her lab to rejoin the rest of the world. Now the problems for once did not have to deal directly with her and having another persons problems to discuss was almost gratifying.

The near pleasure of this was almost sickening to her. Relishing in ones misfortune was the signs of anti-social behavior. Such was the way of Anima. She couldn't go back down that path again. She had a new life. New circumstances to take into account. Shaking her head she returned to reality, realizing her fingers had stiffened slightly in the first stages of severe frost bite.

She had to do something about this glass. Drinking more of the mixture she sighed feeling a bit colder with its consumption. Groaning inwardly she forced her attention outward again.

::unks was still standing next to his wife and moved closer to her taking one of her hands into his. He held it tightly and kissed her cheek softly before speaking softly::

"Something big is gonna happen, I can feel it love."

Valin frontflipped onto another tree branch, landing with perfect precision and amazing grace. It sorta hurt when he landed like that and he knew that really shouldn't be pushing his body like this... but he had to watch and make sure everything was alright.

Another jump and flip, making another landing - this one slightly less gracefully as his right foot loss grip for a moment. The Jedi Knight would have fallen a long, long way down had he not regained his balance as quick as he did. He caught his breath after the scare and the work out.

Okay - No more tree hopping for now.

Jade watched as her brother dove towards a clearing and landed quickly, looking up at her approach. She growled and dove down at him, ready to strike when suddenly his cold grin vanished from her vision and she was transported elsewhere.

SHe crashed into the snow and rolled a little until she lay on her side, motionless except for her breathing. But Jade didn't even notice the cold on her skin, and seeping through her clothing.

~Blood. There was blood everywhere. And though the suns never set, the house felt as dark as the middle of the night. THe air was thick with the stench of the life liquid. Jade looked at her hands, small 6-year-old hands covered in red. She turned to her head to the right, and there lay the body of a woman. Covered in cuts and wounds, but most dramatically missing her head. That, on the other hand, lay on the ground next to Jade. Her mothers head, golden eyes open wide in fear.

Though her mouth opened to scream, no sound came out as she crawled away from the dismembered body of her mother, sliding through the thick pools of blood. Jade stopped only when her back ran up against something soft, and that wasn't a wall. The little girl turned and saw the body of her father in much the same state as her mother. Decapitated, and with a hole burned through his chest.

There was a sickening thump to her right, and her head quickly turned. Her father's head had just been dropped on the floor, his blue eyes open wide, like her mother's.

"Now now....don't be so surprised. They deserved this more than you know....dear sister...."

She looked up, shaking with fear agaisnt her fathers body, looking into a pair of eyes that didn't match each other, cold and cruel. He was covered in blood from head to toe, but his eyes still were bright with the thrill of death.

The boy suddenly stood, gathering red ki into his right hand and forming a blade from it. He approached, and Jade could feel a scream tear from her throat as there was a bright red flash.~

Jade screamed, the snow in front of her mouth melting from the sudden heat of her breath. Her green eyes snapped open, returning to the real world from the illusion Caine had forced her into. Jade struggled to stand for a moment, her hands shaking at her sides.

Finally on her feet again, she glared over at Caine, him standing there with a smug look on his face. It'd been so real, like it was the whole thing, over again.

"...B-b*****d...."

.o O (ooh whats going on? *too tired/lazy to read posts but knows something big is going on* )

Jade bristled at taunt after taunt, growing more and more angry. She didn't even notice those that had followed them, focused only on Caine, the source of all of her pain. Always calling her a child, she was going to show him she was no pathetic child.

She watched him as he took to the air again, eyes narrowed and drawing up her power in her SSJ level. She was going to kill him.

"Have a nice night now."

Suddenly he was gone, revealing the moon rising into the night sky behind him. Jade's eyes locked with the moon above, it's light reflecting in her green orbs. It only took a moment for her to realize that the moon was full tonight, but it was a moment too late. Her heart thumped loudly once, freezing in her chest for a moment as her eyes dialated. Then it began racing in her chest as her breathing quickened, the young woman hunching over as her tail stood out straight behind her, fur standing on end.

Jade's normally green eyes changed rapidly, her pupil and iris fading into a blood red sclera. She snarled and growled, reverting back to a more primitive state of her species, losing all sense of herself. Her body itself began to expand and enlarge at a swift rate. A golden fur spread across her body, tearing through her t-shirt and jeans and splitting her boots apart, shredding apart after that.

The gold band on her left hand didn't stand a chance, her thickening fingers split the soft metal apart and the band was lost to the snow. Her locket suffered the same fate, the chain growing tighter and tighter around her expanding neck until it threatened to choke her. Then one of the links broke loose and the gold locket fell away from the transforming girl to the ground below, lost in the snow with the ring.

Large canines grew out from under her upper lip as nose and mouth elongated into a muzzle. Her face became covered in the golden fur, taking the last resemblance the towering ape had to Jade. The fifty foot beast stood in the girl's place for a moment, a soft growl rumbling from deep within its chest. It glance around itself, recognizing nothing and no one. THis was no longer the sensible young woman they all knew. The Oozaru had a simple thought process: Attack. Destroy. Kill.

The great ape opened it's mouth wide, letting out an earth shaking roar, the full moon a spotlight behind it.

This was bad.

Very, very bad.

User watched as slowly but surely as Jade began the transformation in her Oozaru, or Great Ape, form. It was the power of their species that the light of only a full moon could bring about it. Such a form left many Saiya-jins into a maddened state of bloodlust with no control over their power - power multiplied greatly by the Oozaru form.

However, some Saiya-jins could control this - Saiya-jins like User, who had been trained to use this powerful ape form as a weapon of war. It took many years and many transformation for someone to finally gain utter control over themselves. People like Jade, who had never transformed, were left only with the most basic of Saiya-jin instincts: Kill.

The Prince glanced up at the full moon.

Fight fire with fire. A bigger target would mean bigger threat in the Oozaru Jade's mind.

And so User also underwent the ghastly change, dark brown fur growing to cover his body - unlike Jade, he spent time in his Super Saiya-jin form in battle only. His eyes, too, became a sea of red. But unlike Jade, his Saiya-jin armor and other clothing all stretched with him - everything he wore, save for the Scouter used to detect power levels was made with materials that could bend to impossible lengths. The armor portions were a unique material all of its own that stretch. The cloth-like pants and underwear User wore seemed and felt like normal cloth but even it, too, was blessed with the properties of the armor.

User growled, his anger stemming from Caine's trickery. Of course this growl was insanely loud and probably seemed quite threatening to the other 'normal' people.

"Jade!" Roared the massive Oozaru User, his voice blasting the air, "Hey! If you're going to fight, fight me! Come on: Come get me!"
