Delilah stared hard at the note in her hand, frowning in suspicion. It had been left at the address she had given Mathew, but that was not his writing, nor was it David's. The signature scrawled at the bottom clearly said Leon as well, though last the heard, he was dead.
She shrugged and tucked the note into her pocket. It wouldn't do to keep a Dragon waiting, especially if it WAS Leon. She'd never met him in person before, but his reputation spoke for itself.
Tying the sash David had given her around her arm, Delilah started her walk to the Dragon's territory.
*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Once inside Dragon territory, Delilah would hail the nearest Dragonling with a bright smile, pushing her ebony black hair out of her eyes. "Afternoon. I'm Delilah Black here to meet with Leon."

A Dragonling would indeed walk over when hail'd.
"Ah, yeah... Sudeki said you'd be coming."
The Dragonling would lead her to the Peace Cafe, she'd prolly been there before. The Dragonling would ask her to wait as he went inside.
He'd be sent flying from the door as well, with a no scarred Leon having been hurled into the man, out ran three more Leon's before the real one walked out clad all in black.
"I said the pizza is mine!"
The other Leon's would scatter leaving the real one standing.
"Ah, you're.... Miss Black?"

And so Delilah would wait outside the peace cafe, thinking Leon was probably busy and she would be here a wh--
LOLNOPE.
She jumped back as the Dragonling was sent back through the door as another man...LEON crashed into him. She was about to ask if everyone was okay when THREE MORE Leon's ran out. Stopping the words in her throat.
And then a fifth Leon, shouting something about a pizza.
This is how I die... A heart attack from too many Leon's.
SO SHE GUESSED HE WAS ALIVE AND WELL, THEN.
The other Leon's scattered and Delilah looked around incredulously until the fifth Leon- presumably the REAL one, spoke up.
"Uh...yes. Yes, there is only one of me." She would say as though confirming to herself. "How can I help you?"

"Please, come in."
Leon would motion for her to go inside with him, seeing as how this was stilla bit of a sensative subject.
"Well, miss Black. As you might know I'm Leon Sudeki. Call me Leon."
Leon would go to the counter with the freshly baked pizza, grab two water bottles, chilled fromt he fridge. No generator noise to be heard...
"Please, have some. I hear your a rather good ally to my fellow Dragons."

Delilah would follow Leon into the cafe, the smell of pizza tempting her senses. How long had it been since she had pizza? The amount of time was likely a little over a year ago, but already it felt like eons. She would stand on the opposite side of the counter from him, watching him closely.
This did appear to be the Leon of old: blonde hair and blue eyes. He appeared somewhat more slight in build but her practised eye could tell the men had nearly no body fat, and that all his muscles were well toned and defined. Yes, this was Leon. She was mostly sure.
"Please, call me Delilah, or Del, or Dee or whatever suits you best," She replied, waving a hand at him feebly as she gave him an uncertain smile. Still a bit nervous, but why the hell not? This man was a LEGEND.
The corners if her mouth would tug up further as he mentioned her alliance with David and Mathew. "I think of them more as friends. Why put politics in the way of good people getting along? Still, I can't think of many others I'd want by my side when things go South." she would open the bottle of water he had offered her and take a thoughtful sip, inclining her head in thanks for the refreshments.

Leon would nod at her response.
"Well then. You attract rather strong... Friends."
Leon would chuckle.
"As such I have a proposition for you."

"Well then. You attract rather strong...Friends."
She gave this some thought, realising suddenly that most of her friends were as strong or stronger than she was.
Yep, I sure can pick 'em.
"As such I have a proposition for you."
"Oh?" She took another swig of the water bottle and set it down. She leaned on the counter with her elbows propping up her upper body. Delilah would look him in the eye intently, still smiling calmly. "I'm all ears."

"I have something that is rather expiramental."
He'd reach behind the counter and pull out a golf ball sized white fruit and hand it to her.
"It has many different effects, it seems to be random for each person. Though so far the only person it has an adverse effect on is me... Wanna try?"

Delilah stared dubiously at the white fruit, her eyebrow arching quizzically. After moment, she would return her gaze to Leon.
"What sort of effects?"
No way was she jumping into this blind.

"Qi mutations, inhanced physical ability, even Qi control... Though one subject is slowly losing their eye sight from over use of the mutated Qi."
Leon responded rather grimly, leaving no detail out that he knew.
"Some people are even gaining a resistance to certain amounts of elemental Qi's. Thats all I know so far. Besides the fact the fruit tastes amazing."

Delilah mulled that for s moment. There was great gain here, but there was also risk. Was a detriment worth power and enhanced abilities?
If this question had been asked of her months ago, she likely would have refused. Now, though...now she was becoming more and more aware that she wasn't as strong as she could be. She needed to be strong enough to protect her own life and everyone else's. Like Leon was, and David, Mathew, "Unfettered" and Kiyoshi.
The chance to be strong like them...
There was no way she could pass it up.
"Well, if it's THAT delicious..." Delilah would pick up she fruit, examine it for a moment and then bite into the flesh

Delilah is naturally immune to the first two physical non-Qi based attacks
Negative mutation!
Delilah takes 10% more damage from Qi based attacks!

Finding the fruit sweet and positively the best thing ever, Delilah selfishly ate the rest, careful not to get any of the black juice on herself. Once finished, she would look back at Leon, wide-eyed.
"is there more?!"
