Reclaiming The Past (Open)

Apexle had a bit of a moment apart from Striker as he wanted to view the Planet just one more time and really take in the beauty. His path seemed to come across the town of Nasibu. It looked rather lovely from the sky as Apexle looked down. He didn't know who the inhabitants of this city were. The man before. Gandigan had come this way when last they met. His sudden departure put a bad taste in Apexle mouth. The man himself just had questions. He assumed the race that inflicted him was going to answer those questions, but Apexle knew better.

But Apexle was a tuffle, and even he wanted to see this outcome. He followed the mans ki signature since he hadn't been hiding it and it was much different from the other ones around. He was confused to find the green man had entered a building obviously abandoned pursuing some person.

'Great he's gone and stalked someone' Apexle thought to himself. He blamed himself for letting the obviously less sane person go off on his own. Suddenly he watched as the group began to assault the Namekian. "Oh great. Wonderful. Just my luck" Apexle complained quickly flying downward. His feet lightly touched upon the ground as the stragglers of the group look towards him.

By Now Apexle would already have his hood covering the majority of his face. A small eerie smile laced on his lips. "Don't do it" He warned with a soft tone. His hands quickly moving our as his training weights came off pinning the military men to the ground.

"Gandigan. You'd had better have a real good reason to be trying to go in there" Apexle said as his right hand shifted towards the way of the door. "Gungnir" Apexle spoke in a soft tone once more. A yellow spear quickly formed in Apexle's hand before the shaft lengthened shooting forward as it smashed threw the door Gandigan wanted to enter would explode open with a hole more than wide enough to see inside. Apexle himself would remain stairing forward.

"What's inside the building" Apexle question with a cold expression. Obvious that if the answer wasn't sufficient he'd probably aim the next spear at Gandigan instead.

Apexle watched as the Namekian went into the building. His steps were slow. He'd had enough patience invested in finding the Namekian. If this little attack didn't amount to anything then someone had to pay. The tuffle's teeth grinded as the illusion fell. A devilish smile overcame his face. "That looks like an answer to me" He said without stopping his ever slow pace. He'd been correct in following the Namekian. If this place was hidden like that it obviously meant this wasn't a legal operation. "Guess I can humor this quest a little longer" Apexle muttered to himself.

"I can already tell what's going on" Apexle said as he rush forward as the scientist hit the Namekian. "You went into this being absolutely useless. Or at least that's how it looks to me" The tuffle teased as his knee quickly caved in one of the scientists face. Quickly the tuffle grabbed the body throwing it into a group of his fellow scientists.

"Five seconds" Apexle said with a cold tone. as he walked towards his pile of scientists "Run" He demanded as the majority of them ran, and the others crawled obviously dazed from the sudden body being thrown at them at extreme speeds.

"Now I want my answers" Apexle said looking back as he turned towards Gandigan his right arm lifting and a ki blast forming aimed at the opposing ball of energy. "And they'd better be good since I helped you deal with whatever the hell this is" Apexle said with his lips forming a frown. The rest of his face was covered, but he was rather enjoying himself. He just didn't know this man enough to trust he'd deliver the answer in a timely fashion.

Apexle could hear some truth in what the man was saying. He wasn't dumb, and he knew the orb of energy wasn't something a researcher would keep around without a barrier or protection. This was a whole different breed of science that Apexle wasn't akin to. Or perhaps that thing many others called magic. As the Namekian spoke further Apexle lowered his hand. "The point of me blowing open a hole in the wall, and beating up researchers was to find out your history, and now you're telling me an orb of unstable energy is your memories" Apexle complained.

It was then the Namekian made his way to the orb. Apexle rolled his eyes at the suspense, but all the while still interested to see how the orb was going to react. If it disintegrated the Namekian though that could be a problem. "I doubt your memories would be held in a ball of-" Apexle began before the man touched the orb and suddenly everything turned violent.

The energy had completely absorbed the man as it began to pull things closer and closer. Apexle like a smart individual refused to be pulled in. Dashing back with all his force as he gripped ahold of the door way. He should probably have left, but he was even more curious about how the unstable energy would react when it ate everything in the lab. 'That Namekian bastard better not die before telling me about those damn memories' Apexle thought to himself as he waited a bit away from the bottomless vortex.

Apexle was confused when the vortex hadn't changed when suddenly all at once it expanded to the size of the house. His body being tugged and pulled into it with within moments. He'd been swallowed by the vortex. For moments perhaps hours he sailed in the darkness before gravity hit all at once. Suddenly he was falling at extreme speeds towards a fortified city. His figure like a back meteor shooting down at the entrance where invaders had come.

*BANG*

A sudden shockwave hit the ground at extreme force, and as the dust settled Apexle stood with a unimpressed look. He'd survived, but now he was surrounded by the race from before. "Where a-" Apexle began to speak as a blaster was pointed at him. Fury overcame him as he charged forwards ripping and tearing at every blaster he saw. The models were old and near ineffective even if they hit Apexle who was using their own allies as human shields. "I'm getting real tired of this" Apexle growled.

Suddenly the area around him turned dark. As he turned to look up a massive city was falling. "You're joking right... THATS A WHOLE CITY!" Apexle screamed with worry as his voice echoed around the streets. Anger coursing in his veins. Not only was he stranded on Planet Konats, but now they were literately throwing their cities trying to end his life over breaking into a single lab. Apexle quickly began to look around about ready to flee to a place that wasn't in immediate danger of being crushed.

Apexle still caught in a daze barely noticed the Namekian from before sneak up behind him as his hand touched his shoulder. "You're telling me you've brought me into a doomed memory? Well I'll argue about this with you later. Right now you're right and we need to leave as soon as possible before we both die" Apexle said with his eyes scanning the area. It was nearly doomed already he couldn't stay here and play hero if it was a memory and doomed to fail anyways.

The Namekian was quick to notice the spaces where the cracks formed. The Namekian pointed to a fairly close one. Apexle himself wasn't sure something about that one didn't sit well with him. A eerie feeling of fear overcame his body. A sensation he didn't have often. None the less he had no other option. His body moved forward entering a second before the Namekian had entered he did.

Suddenly they weren't on a battle field anymore. The opposite actually they were on Planet Plant. The smell of decay and destruction surrounded them as they stood in front of a hole in the side of an oddly placed building. It was spherical in it's construction with an oddly tipped top with the skull of a deceased monkey like alien at the top. It was so far away from the civilization you could barely see the lights bouncing off the landscape.

"So I'm included in the collective" Apexle mentioned looking towards the Namekian who was standing close to himself. "Well when we met you asked what I was right?" Apexle said walking forward towards the hole. "Let me show you" He said with a sad tone as he entered the lab. "There are three floors if you dont include the one they never let me enter" Apexle said stepping into the building. It didn't matter if the Namekian followed. He was going to relive this memory himself if he must.

His steps were quick as he moved down a floor. His steps lead him towards a blood covered room in the shape of an octagon. "Let me ask you. Do you think it's a right to live as you choose? Or do you think we live dictated by the choices our creator designed for us?" Apexle questioned walking towards one of the blood stained walls letting his hand press against the wall hard enough to leave a hand print. "Because by design I'm only good for killing the foes of the tuffles" Apexle said looking back towards the Namekian if he followed. "But in this room I killed many tuffles in the goal of getting strong enough to combat the Saiyans." Apexle said moving away from the wall. "But I wasn't enough" Apexle said as his foot kicked out slamming open the false frame of the wall revealing a way down from the second floor to the fourth. "Before we go down. I need to warn you" Apexle said turning to the Namekian. "Our way out is probably down there, but you're probably not going to enjoy seeing what kind of people made me" Apexle said waiting for the Namekians response.

Apexle gave the Namekian all the time he needed before he spoke again. "I like that answer. I don't like listening anymore, but when I did, I did so without question or reason." Apexle stated as he continued to answer the question the Namekian asked. "I only fought a few Saiyans, but I never left this lab in doing so and their powers weren't boast worthy if they fell to me during the time" Apexle answered.

Finally the Namekian spoke of wanting to see the underbelly of his history. "Alright then I'll have to do a bit more explaining" Apexle said taking a step down. "I'm the 45th tufyan. A creature made of Tuffle and Saiyan's DNA. To keep me on a leash they placed tiny nanobots in my bloodstream that would inject lethal poison. Not only that but to actually keep me alive they needed to weaken the Saiyan's muscle strength from breaking my fragile tuffle bones." Apexle explained as he continued down the now winding stairs.

Finally they made it to the bottom. "And this place is what you could call my mothers womb" Apexle said as the room opened up to show a multitude of glass chambers holding artificial life forms. Some more corrupted and deformed than others. "This is what they called the first wave. They're mindless creatures and they make up both the first forty four attempts." Apexle said as he stepped towards the center where a mass pile of scientists were.

"See the tuffles as smart as they were didn't realize it, but the majority of the time they had the poisonous nanobots inside me. They weren't actually working." Apexle explain taking a seat on a gurney in the center. "And because they couldn't control me. This was where they brought me to terminate me" Apexle said with a painful smile. "Before I could ever be of use or dangerous they determined my Saiyan side to be too dangerous." Apexle said weakly.

"So I killed them. Every last researcher who came, and some when I was leaving." Apexle said stepping off the gurney and kicking it out of the way to reveal a vortex out of the memory. "I think you'll agree like I said before." Apexle said moving to the side. "Some memories are just worth discarding" Apexle said softly ushering the Namekian into the vortex. It was clear he didn't want to be there anymore as the memory began to speed up time. The corpses quickly decaying and turning to bones as the glass chambers around them came to ruin and the entire area began to rust and mold. We should probably leave now" Apexle warned hoping the same wouldn't happen to them.

Apexle has a bit of a laugh at the mans comment. "No it's totally fine" He said as they went towards the portal. "If you think your memories will help you then I'll help. I've invest enough time in you to at least want to see what becomes of you." Apexle reassured. He did spend a bit of time on this, however he wasn't sure how long the man had been looking himself. "Here we go again" Apexle said as the Namekian ran into the portal. Apexle quickly followed him like he'd done before.

The endless darkness returned as they warped into another memory. This time Apexle woke after the Namekian. He hadn't said a word, but instead bolted forward at his fastest. Apexle quickly followed him. His pace slowed as the door opened. He was looking over the Namekian's shoulder as he saw the same sight he had.

Apexle's eyes widened as he saw the scene. Gandigan was in the doorway alive and kicking, but was also a corpse under the table. He wasn't sure how to put it, but it made sense. The sudden amnesia and a potential unconscious body. Well at least Apexle hoped it wasn't a dead body. For Gandigan's sake of course.

"Hm. Seems like either they knocked you out or they killed you" Apexle assumed. He still wasn't sure how the Namekian would react as he remained in the doorway. "I think you should probably go see if you can find out some answers from that group" Apexle mentioned waiting for the Namekians next actions.
