If he weren't distracted with the pain filling his entirety as a living being, Kanitah would have shuddered at what the word "Fuck" translates to in his language. Though he was not in so much pain as to not have a witty retort to Fury's coment. [color=f26522]"Yeah, well, if we were both armed this would have been much easier. Pundambayan side arms are hefty little tools with more than one purpose, aside from just killing. Unlike your swords."[/color] The word sword translated to something along the lines of; Archaic tool of bloodshed. With his uninjured hand and a bit of shoving, Kanitah forced himself up into a seated position. Nothing more to do but wait and talk, if Fury decided to end him right now, there wouldn't be much he could do. Not yet at least. [color=f26522]"If we were both armed, it wouldn't be a contest. I'm just an old guy with a backpack that gives me a boost of power. If I had all of the equipment that my daughter lugs around, well. It's kind of silly looking, but she's dangerous. Y'know?"[/color] [color=f26522]"Inheritor of one of the most powerful words, holder of an ancient Pundambayan artifact. Has her own customized word engine, it's much better than mine. A full suit of Extra-Vehicular Power Armor that enhances everything about her."[/color] Kanitah didn't really care about Fury right now, he was thinking about his daughter. Dying while thinking about your daughter is a good way to go, I'd say. As the words left his mouth, tears began to flow down his face. [color=f26522]"She grew up to be so different from me, y'know? Because I wasn't there for her. Because I was out here, dealing with freaks like you. Because it's a fun hobby."[/color] An old man cried that day, clenching his right knee tightly in his hand. [color=f26522]"Because I like being The Hero, because it's all I'm good at."[/color] [color=f26522]"I came out here to find her, and act like a good father for once. Instead of just [b]The Hero.[/b]"[/color] [color=f26522]"Instead, I found a Freak of Nature with a grudge against some Cocky Old Bastard."[/color] The more he spoke, the more it hurt. With a passive wave of his finger in Fury's general direction when the 'Freak of Nature' comment was spoken. [color=f26522]"So now what? Where do we go from here?"[/color] Trying with a bit of effort to stand up, it wasn't going to happen easily. [color=f26522]"We can keep going, I'm ready to die here."[/color]
