This was just great, the beast was huge and a lazy one at that. Viral knew exactly what he needed to do the moment he saw that thing rise up, but at the same time he was somewhat worried over what Yumi would think if he had to pull it off. There was no use in scaling this creature, he couldn’t even fly to get to its face and it would take a while for his blade to pierce that thick hide too. He wasn’t afraid of this beast, there was nothing to be afraid of as far as he was concerned. Growling lowly, he looked to Yumi when she spoke up, staring at her for a moment, “I am…and I know it! But only if you stay back and out of my way”, he spoke, sounding more like he was giving her an earnest warning rather than telling her to back off because he didn’t want her company.

He wasn’t afraid of this thing, not by a longshot. Being afraid of death was often a rarity at this point with his biggest worry being where he might surely go after death, if anywhere at all. The thought that he had no spirit was what scared him the most, there was no way to prove that artificial beings gained one either. Feeling truly like he couldn’t be bothered with anything, he stared up at the giant as it spoke of its disappointment at their challenge, proving its laziness by barely caring. Growling lowly, he gave one look around him before he jumped a good ways backward, giving himself plenty of distance, “You believe yourself to be a god?? Pitiful! Taking advantage of a young race…today shall be your last on this planet!”

Viral was slightly nervous about this, he didn’t know what Yumi might think seeing him accomplish such an unusual ability, she might even get worried that she might be able to do it and not even know it. Giving her a quick look, he slowly turned to look down at himself before he clenched his fist over his heart. After a brief moment, a glow gradually began to build up on his fist, a visible sign of strain building up as it got more intense only for Viral to raise his hand up and release the energy. The energy formed all around him and up, growing large in size before Viral jumped up into the growing mass and never came back down. With a bright flash the figure took form, the weight of the energy suddenly becoming evident on the ground as it shifted in a mass of dust.

With the energy clearing and the dust rising, instead of Viral stood the massive metal monstrosity that was the Enki, its enormous eyes glowing in the poor light. While there was no daylight in the place, Viral was having to rely on his own energy to keep the mecha functioning. Shifting its hand, the Enki moved into a swordsman’s stance with its hand remaining over one of the twin swords at the waist. With two blades at his disposal, Viral stared at the now not so massive but still large creature, only this time he was a threat.

T’charrl really hoped Takeshi would try and understand what kind of predicament he was in with this being unable to use weapons right now, he thought he would had guessed it enough seeing as how he was without his own weapons. He had left them at home for a reason and with his body rebelling against him it was way too risky to have any sort of weapon near him. He could end up breaking it for good and that would be that, he might even end up turning the blade on himself to put a stop to his pain for good. Staring at Takeshi with hope that he’d understand, he let out a sigh of relief when Takeshi finally took the blade, making a brief flutter backwards with his hands to his chest, “You’ll learn, everyone has to learn somehow”, he spoke, giving a little nod, “The first step to learning is respecting your weapon. You’ve just got to have faith in it”. Feeling a slight sense of relief, he gasped a little when he heard the creatures trying to run off towards the home of the natives, feeling a sudden sense of panic run through him.

Flying on after Takeshi, he watched the creatures down below as Takeshi went in again, making a quick few stabs down upon the creature once more. That was a little better, he should try and do that a lot more often. Watching as he made one last stab, the other creature suddenly came down at him in a brief revenge attack. Spinning himself around, he immediately dived down at the creature that had been struck down, his claws immediately trying to go for the wounds as if to pry it open and create an even worse wound while the other creature was focused on Takeshi. He didn’t have much in the way of weapons himself, just his claws until he could concentrate more energy into himself by landing properly and pulling it out of the planet to use.
