Free-roaming the world set out before him, Taka embraced his smoke abilities, traveling through a nearby vent and now smoke-dashing from rooftop to rooftop. "Man, the views you can get from the tops of buildings are pretty sweet! Too bad there aren't very many people to share it with...people like me.." He remarks as he sits himself down atop a billboard. Ever since he had touched that gem and gained his powers, his life wasn't the same. He kept in touch with his friends from his old life, but never visited them in person, feeling that if they saw him as he was now, being no longer human, they'd be terrified of him. His main goal for the longest time had been to find someone like him. They might not have the same abilities as him, but they'd at least understand the situation he was in. Hell, maybe they'd bond over this misfortune and become good friends. Taka certainly hoped that'd be the case, at least. For now, as Taka took all these thoughts into consideration, he enjoyed his current view of Chicago, the city being bathed in the moonlight. He took a moment to stare directly at it in all of its glory, stretching out his right hand towards the moon. In hopes of channeling the soothing light of the moon into his heart, he closed his hand towards it, and placed his outstretched hand unto his heart.
