Natron definitely did not look like himself. The General was splattered with blood and shaking, and he could still hear the screams of his parents falling from that rooftop. He was also determined. As far as he knew, Des was completely unaware of the secret war in this city. He had wanted to keep it that way, but that was no longer an option. He couldn't let someone else he loved be vulnerable. Not when he'd screwed up so badly.
He teleported to his boyfriend's house. "Desmond?" He called, reaching up to brush a lick of hair out of his face.

Paint. Paint eeeeeeeeverywhere. Bloody commissions. Why did it hafta be paint. Not that he was complaining about the paint. I was just going to take forever to get outta his clothing. Glancing back at his initial sketch and list of reference colors Des set to mixing what he needed before painting again. He jumped in surprise when his name was called, not having expected anyone. Getting up, he walked into the other room only to blink. "...What the hell Grace. What are you doing here?" Then he paused, with a sigh. "Please tell me there's not another psycho lady in the park again.."

Natron exhaled. "Des, it's me. It's Gabriel." He considered powering down for a moment to prove it, but he really, really didn't want to let go of the security of this form. "If you don't believe me - the first time you kissed me, it was because I was freaking out because I couldn't protect you from your doppelganger. This is why. If I'd powered up, it would've been dead a lot faster."

The purple haired boy tilted his head, eyes narrowing as he tried to see past the blood, sweat and dirt that the man was covered in. Taking a few steeps closer, Des picked up a rag off the counter and wiped at the brunette's face. "Huh... So it is. Well that explains why you made comments about me watching your a** back at the park"

Natron caught Des's wrist. His hold was firm, but still gentle - he didn't want to hurt his boyfriend, obviously. "Des. Do you trust me?" He asked, his voice soft. He needed to hear it for certain, because he was probably about to test that trust about as far as he could.

"Of couse Angel. You know that." Des frowned slightly. "What's the matter Angel? You look tired..." He reached with his free hand, to run through Gabriel's hair. "Are you alright?"

Natron swallowed. He could do this, he knew it - Painite had corrupted him, and she was a General. But painite hadn't been shaken by having her parents murdered in front of her less than an hour before. "No, I'm not alright," he admitted. "My parents were just murdered in front of me, because I wasn't careful with my identity."

"Wait, what?" Des blinked stupidly before pulling Gabriel in close. "I'm sorry Angel.. I'm so sorry.." The purple haired man hugged the shorter one close, not even phased by the condition of the other male

Natron rested his head against Des's chest, arms sliding around his boyfriend's shoulders. "This is going to sound paranoid, I know, but please, hear me out, okay?" He took a breath. "My parents are dead because I'm a General in the Negaverse. All those reports of gang wars? Strangely dressed terrorists? That's - that's us, kind of - I mean, the ones that get called terrorists are our enemies, the Senshi, and basically there's a secret war going on in Destiny City and I've been a part of it for a year and last night I screwed up, I got into a fight with a pair of Senshi and I left one of them alive and she followed me until I turned back into myself and I guess she knew who I was because she kidnapped my parents and then she killed them in front of me. And then I killed her. Very dead."

"Ya know... if it weren't for that video and shade thing in the park, I would have thought you were nuts. ...Maybe." Des said as he gently stroked the back of Gabriel's neck.

"Yeah, I know, it sounds really crazy," Natron acknowledged, and then he stepped out of his boyfriend's embrace for a moment and then cupped Des's face. "I can make you like me. I want to, so that the next time I screw up you'll be able to keep yourself safe." So that it wouldn't be Des screaming echoing in his mind.

"I did fine the last time didn't I? ...Er well, the time before that. Last time I kinda passed out." Des just smiled again, his hand wrapping around one of Gabriel's and giving it a gentle squeeze. "Do what you feel is necessary Angel. I know you're just looking out for me." Living up to his name.

Natron slid his hand into Des's, and then his other hand went into his boyfriend's chest and he gripped the taller man's starseed. "This is going to hurt like hell," he said, and then he took a breath and drove Chaos into him. He was surprised at how natural it felt, and that he knew exactly when to stop, to withdraw his hand, and to survey the newly-minted Lieutenant in front of him.

The purple haired boy yelped loudly in surprise. "The fuuu-ow ow ow!" Des rambled off again and again. Hurt like hell was an understatement. His chest stung and he was pretty sure he'd feel like he just got kicked by a horse in the morning. "Ouch..." He whined.

Natron smiled faintly. As a Lieutenant, Des looked amazing - almost like an assassin. "Yeah, wait until you get promoted, that's really a b***h," he said lightly. "Welcome to the Negaverse, Lieutenant Fangite." He was surprised to find that he knew the name of his new recruit.
