Now Rai was surprised. What the hell was that suppose to mean.
"Sudeki who've turned against the family? The hell are you talking about? I know I've been gone awhile but damn..."

Rai's genuine surprise seems to cut through the fog in Zanicus' head and he pauses for a moment taking out a Cig and lighting it. Rai's eye would notice as he takes the first draw his Qi stops being so turbulent. He blows out the smoke and then looks at Rai quizzically.
"But you said you worked with the dragons... your father proclaims the Sudeki's support Midgard's attempts to make the world better..."
Zan trails off unsure how such an influential figure could genuinely not know.

Rai's eye would twitch and his face would grimace.
"My dad said What?!"
This time Zanicus would notice perhaps even feel Rai's qi energy flowing out from him as he stood up and took a step towards Zanicus, and even though Zanicus was taller Rai's presence would still feel as though it was towering over him.
"What exactly did my father say?"

The massive influx of Qi and its threatening nature would immediately send Zanicus into survival mode, His pupils disappearing as an unthinking brute takes hold. Just as he balls up his fist to begin what surely would be a suicidal assault some small part of his brain that still understands rational tactics and power differences would scream at him "don't be a fucking dumbass" and he restrains himself.
"I don't know his exact words, the word was just passed to the branches that we were to accept and support the Midgard in their efforts to rebuild this world"

"Is that right?"
Rai laughed but it was very obviously not one that was made from humor.
"Did he also happen to mention that it was Midgard that was behind the destruction of everything in the first place? That Midgard was just using Barker and his evil deeds to make them look better for when they came in to 'help' the world? How about the fact that John Strike leader of Midgard has been killing off innocent people for no reason? Did he happen to mention any of that I'm just curious."

Looks at Rai slightly slack jawed as he levels a whole slew of accusations at Midgard.
"That seems like a bit of a stretch. why would they help barker only to then come and help humanity? Why would the clan leader trust them? Why would he kill innocents but offer to help me gain control?"
He buttons up rather quickly after the last statement clearly irritated he would reveal more about himself to a potential enemy.

Rai stared at Zanicus and decided to just let what he said go... for now.
"Well for one thing, what is the easiest way to gain power over the general populace?"
He'd pause to let the question sink in.
"And when you have that power over them, what is to stop you from dominating the minds of those that would blindly follow your rule? Obviously the people that know the truth, so what do you do to get rid of them without causing suspicion? Accuse them of being behind everything and rally the people to attack them."
Rai again would let his words sink in.
"Any of this getting through to you?"

Stands quietly for the moment weighing Rai's words against what he'd seen himself over the past few years. He frowns as nasty rumors about abuse and corruption he refused to believe at the time come to mind, but to engineer the whole thing? He looks up disbelievingly at Rai but meets his gaze and sees nothing but conviction.
"If i were to believe you... I would want to know how they've gained control of the clan and how you have seen proof of this."
He continues to maintain eye contact not necessarily aggressively, but critically, watching for any sign that Rai doesn't wholeheartedly believe his next words.

"How I've seen proof of this? HA! I was there when Strike ripped Barkers head off his shoulders because he was talking too much and telling my master more of Strikes plans than he wanted to know! As for the clan, I have no idea but you bet your ass I'm going to find out..."
Rai would never break eye contact his conviction was strong.

Feels the strength of Rai's conviction almost as if it were... his ninja way. Zan would nod slowly as he listens. he looks down slowly, clearly deep in thought, he takes a moment to choose his words before responding.
"It's hard to believe what you say, but it all makes a kind of disgusting sense. If it's true then there is only one thing for me to do. ill join you in fighting the Midgard."
He grins in a rather silly manner at Rai before saying
"But if i ever find you've lied to me ill kill you myself."
He tries to look as grim as possible in the face of Rai's rather intimidating aura that would seem to make it rather clear who the stronger of the two is.

Rai immidiately started smiling again his over powering aura gone as he pat Zanicus on the should roughly, painfully, a few times.
"Oh man you branch family guys are hilarious I really don't know why we don't hang out more often! But come lets go see first hand the truth in my words. How you ask? Well I'm happy to answer that question!"
Rai started walking off away from Zanicus, and he would become stern again.
"I plan to go talk to my father, after all it has been awhile since I've been home..."

Zanicus cheers up visibly as the pressure of Rai's aura dissipates. He laughs in return to Rai's comment about branch families then shifts his shoulder a couple times after Rai turns, inwardly irritated that such a small man could pat so hard. He takes another drag before tossing away the cigarette and following slightly behind Rai. He smiles widely saying.
"I like this plan, one way or another i'll learn the truth of things."
