[color=e38c2d]”It’s not every day you have to haul ass from the French Quarter to he…”[/color]

Fletch's raspy voice was cut off mid-sentence by a monstrous thunderclap from high up in the atmosphere that shattered whatever remaining windows were in the city. Both her and David watched, stunned, as a humongous object screamed down from high above, slamming into the city only a few blocks away.

Acting quickly, with impressive reflexes for a human, David noted, Fletch shot a rope arrow upwards and disappeared.

With the sudden impact of a enormous object from space, the ground began to buckle outwards, toppling nearby misshapen buildings, along with shaking down weakened ones. David, stunned by all these new bigger and bigger threats, simply watched, until he realized he was standing next to a certain building.

'Madoka Phoenix Academy' The karate place Maddie had asked to join with her friends, and then he remembered signing the small print. 'No refunds'.

This alien tower extended far into the sky, normally something this size slamming into the city would have destroyed the entire area, will destroy, should the resulting quakes be allowed to proceed. Lost Haven should have been destroyed by the mere after affect of this new weapon. To that, David said [i]'Not today'[/i].

Although he had never done anything on this scale, he forced himself steady, stood straight, and prepared. The Earth happened to be under his charge, and he would not allow such destruction to happen so easily. Even as the violent shockwaves grew in power, shooting outwards with a terrible force, bucking cars and even buildings into the air; he spread out his arms. David began to feel outwards, towards the tower, putting the surrounding areas in his grasp; and before the resulting aftermath of destruction could doom his previous monthly installments, he forced the quakes and the debris to stop.

It took every ounce of his willpower to do this, like grabbing onto the edge of a cliff and pulling as hard as you could, or pushing yourself to finish a marathon at the end of your stamina. Control over the Earth was very much in his wheelhouse, but he had never tried this level of power. Even so, he managed to save what he wanted, the Earthquakes proceeded no further, endangering nobody except those caught in ground zero, only the heroes.

But this was too much. Miles of earth and cement were forced still as the shockwaves of the tower landing pounded on his hold like a hammer. This was like flexing and pushing a muscle well past the point it had been trained, despite the fact that it was able to, despite that it had the potential to do this, this was his limit for now. After fighting for what felt like years, David felt he should have reached his limit sooner; however, he now supposed his body was making up for the power usage in between fights, slowly regenerating.

The debris the tower initially created continued to shoot throughout the city, a torrent of dust and small debris quickly washed over him, hiding the world from him, and himself from the world. David fell to a knee in exhaustion, the energy core on his chest began to flicker and pulse throughout his body; followed by a rhythmic thumping, like a heartbeat, it began to drum throughout his chest and body. His vision blurred, for the second time today it felt like his whole world was shaking.

[color=0072bc]"Pathetic."[/color] A voice, as distorted as his own, whispered on the wind. David glanced around, for the source of the voice, but it seemed to come from all around him.

[color=0072bc]"To think, a Guardian of the Earth would be felled so easily. By exhaustion no less."[/color]

David said nothing, his chest still moving up and down in rhythm with his pulsating energy core, trying to catch his breath.

[color=0072bc]"Oh I know. You wasted so much time and power protecting those monkeys. You, yourself, are now left undefended, exhausted."[/color] A fierce flowing gust of air rushed past his ear, and down to his neck.

[color=ed1c24]"If you want a fight, I'll face you."[/color] David rose unsteadily, but managed to straighten himself after a shaky rise. [color=ed1c24]"But don't waste my time with talk."[/color]

The other voice didn't say anything at first, but the wind continued to whistle softly, even as tiny fist-sized pebbles blew past him. The area was still blanketed by the large rolling dust cloud.

[color=0072bc]"Hmph. I'm undecided, as to whether we will fight. But I do know that if continue as you are, you will completely deplete yourself."[/color] David felt more than he heard, some presence land nearby. [color=0072bc]"A Guardian of the Earth can't fall so quickly, so easily, not yet."[/color]

A gentle warm feeling began to engulf him, much like calling on Terra's power, except this was coming from outside. An aura of gentle, teal-colored, light flowed from somewhere outside his vision. The more this light flowed into him, the more calmer, and energized he felt. His breath was returning, and his struggling energy core returned to its solid form. A pure and brilliant white.

[color=0072bc]"And yet, our fates are tied somewhat. To let you fall here would damage my pride."[/color] The voice said, someone annoyed sounding.

[color=ed1c24]"Our fates?"[/color]

[color=0072bc]"Finish the rest of this without me."[/color] The voice said, and a large gust of wind followed something up and away.


[hider=End Note]
Really only included that last part so a certain character wouldn't literally be coming out of the blue if a certain year long timeskip were to actually happen.
