The shadows of Erebos' dark corridors gave way to the bright light of Namek's three sun's. It was really quite strange. The journey to the planet hadn't taken much time at all. Cipher had experienced this when they traveled to the opposite end of the world, but he had thought travelling to a whole different planet would have taken longer. Not much longer by the look of things.
Truth be told, Cipher had been curious as to why Erebos had changed plans from going to Plant to going to Namek. Fortunately the demon had explained everything. An entity named Azuki was poised to protect the planet, and the namekians had been kind to Erebos in the past, causing the demon to want to protect them. Cipher could respect that. Though he was no longer with the government, Cipher had been made as a protector. There were just some things one couldn't shake.
So now, there was three of them arriving on Namek, Erebos, himself, and Jackie, whom Cipher had the pleasure of meeting before. Erebos had stated someone was joining thrm, a man named Nasu, who was making their own way to the planet.
The three were now standing out in an empty field. From what Cipher heard, settlements were sparse on this planet. In this case, if a fight was to happen, that would be a good thing. The android quietly scanned his surroundings as everyone got their bearings.
He picked up on a strange noise in the air. Probably by what one could only describe as coincidence, he happened to be nearby the moment the others made their journey back to Namek. He did not have plenty to do at the moment, after his training he was pretty much enjoying himself with the taste of some local cuisine.
Or ingredient. It was just a fruit. An orange, spiky fruit. Once every minute or so he happened to take a bite, he did not look quite busy or anything. He had just been staring ahead at the sky without too much of a thought passing by. But he did turn away to find a pack of somewhat total strangers.
"So this is where you were. Unless... could it be that you have just arrived?"
He did not honestly pay attention whether or not the entities had actually just revealed themselves or if perhaps they had just made the journey. If so, where was the spaceship? Nasu did not exactly witness Erebos' travel methods ever before, so of course he would happen to be slightly confused. But all things considered, it did not matter too much.
The man sat on a rock and once more closed his teeth into the fruit. He would give them enough time to understand where they were and what they were up to; Erebos brought a couple more people along, too. How curious! One was also strangely familiar, a vibrant warm hair color was an odd characteristic to possess.
"Say, is that you Jackie?"
No reason to beat around the bush for too long. As far as he could remember she would not even dream to look like a fighter and rather insist about repairing cars for a career. It was no big deal if he had it wrong, though. Last time they met was such a long time ago. He could not acknowledge any sense of familiarity with Cipher but he still fired a nod his way.
Anyway, the man himself looked somewhat different with his hair style. But more or less he looked just the same.
"Also, what is this about exactly? I still do not have the slightest clue."
