Another Fight [OPEN]

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sidervib looked into fullerton as he walked closer, after being experimented on he felt like taking a walk into nuetral california, without a doubt there would be someone there looking for a fight, and sider felt in the mood to get his clothes a little dirty.

[Delilah A. Black]

"Status report."

"No Barker patrol along my avenue."

"Mine either."

"Nothing worth reporting."

"Nothin'."

"Haven't even seen anyone for the last hour."

"NOTHING OF IMPORT, I AM SAD TO SAY."

Delilah would scowl, glaring down at the street below her. Three hours out here and nothing, definitely a waste of time.

Then, from below, a little silhouette came into view, walking brazenly down the street without a care in the world. Her sharp eyes spied some of the young man's more prominent features and she recognized him from a week or so prior in the breaking out of Asiv.

Interesting...

"Alright, if you lot have nothing, then head back. I have something I wanna check out."

After hearing the various affirmations from her team, Delilah clicked off the blue-tooth and slipped off her perch four story's above the ground. She touched down without a noise, bending her knees to absorb the shock until she was in a deep crouch. Getting up, she started after Sider, walking at a decently brisk pace some ways off behind him, smiling to herself.

What was the young man doing so far from home, she wondered.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sider continued walking along, knowing not to stray too far from barker territory, he was just trying to figure out his new power, and how to control it, right now it was uncontrolled, releasing too much of his energy, taking a heavy toll on his body, this wasn't going to be easy, but he had plenty of time, and a large open area to practice in.

"hmmm, i wonder if i can create a small fireball...."
>Voopppppsshhh
Well that was useless, the fireball started at a small size like it should have, but it shot off less like a fireball, and more like a baloon filled with air that suddenly got a hole poked in it.

"shit."

Sider became frustrated.

"RAAGGGHHHHH!!!!!"

Sider released a LARGE fireball, bigger than his whole body, it took both his hands and all of his concentration to try and control it...FUCK!!!!! WOOPPOMMMPASSHHIIIIIIIMMMM!!!! though after firing such a blast Sider collapsed on the ground, he could barely breathe and his sight was failing him.

[Delilah A. Black]

Padding along silently behind the young man, she followed him into a large area that seemed unusually unoccupied. She contented herself with hanging back in the shadows until she knew for sure what he was up to.

"hmmm, i wonder if i can create a small fireball...."

Eh?

Just then, a little ball of fire shot away from him, whizzing into the sky before vanishing. Delilah only raised her brow, a little amused, but not surprised. Trying to get a mastery of his Qi, huh?

"RAAGGGHHHHH!!!!!"

Sider upped the ante, and in front of him, the mechanic spotted a bright red glow that quickly grew into a large shape. To her eyes, his body shook as he tried to control it..and failed.

The fireball shot away from him as it collided with the side of a nearby building, leaving large scorch marks behind. She watched as Sider collapsed.

The mechanic sighed. Oh, but to not give a shit. Just once. That would be nice.

Damned sense of honour.

She moved out of her hiding place over to where Sider was. She loomed above him, looking down at his dazed expression with a slight amount of concern.

Slight.

"That may have been a bit much for you to handle."

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"Eh, i'm sure i could do more" Sider stated trying to regain his breath.

(ooc:sorry for the wait, i thought i was in another post, i just couldn't remember where.)

[Delilah A. Black]

"Don't be silly." she said quickly. "If you use to much of your Qi too soon, you can burn yourself out. Literally. You know how your limbs get heavy and tired when you use them a lot very quickly. It's the same with Qi. If you're not careful, it'll turn against you."

Delilah's own Qi for example hurt her if she used it too long, sending little needles of metal spiking inwards to inhibit her and clear the anger from her mind. It was almost as though Qi had a mind of their own. Or, maybe that was just her.

"Need a hand up?"

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"Sure" Sider replied simply. "oh hey delilah! What brings you 'round these parts?"

[Delilah A. Black]

Delilah extended a hand and hauled him easily to his feet, as if he weighed nothing.

"Scouting. Looking for movement of Barker patrols. Directing citizens to safe havens if they require them." she shrugged. "And yourself?"

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"figuring out how to use my new found power, an unfortunate consequence of working with barker."

Sider lifted his hand directly to his right and fired the smallest little fireball you ever could see.

"This is pretty much it" Sider stated. The fireball traveled about 5 feet forward, slowly, and blew into a little puffball of smoke.

[Delilah A. Black]

Delilah would nod, seeing the small fireball. "It's not a bad start. Just keep at it. There are a few people around here who have fire based Qi and maybe they'd be willing to help you.

"...unless you're still with Barker?" she added after a moment, raising an eyebrow.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"After i found out what he was doing, HELL no. God good how fucked up can one man be? It's Nuts!"

OOC: where are we at this point in the timeline?

[Delilah A. Black]

How someone could NOT know absolutely mystified Delilah. He was the most well known man in the world, the one who had brought ruin to them all. But she wouldn't press the issue. He had helped save Asiv, so that was at least a plus in her books.

"Good, good. So you're basically just wandering around trying to get a hold of your power?"

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"That's the idea anyway, how do you channel your Qi?" Sider asked.

[Delilah A. Black]

Delilah tilted her head back to look at the sky as she thought of this. How did one channel Qi. "I think it's different from person to person," she said after a moment, tilting her head back down to look at him. "I can activate it on my own, but it also responds to my emotions, particularly if I'm...angry."

To be vague about it.

"Try drawing on a memory that gives you a powerful feeling and focus on forming the emotion in your hands. Convert it to fire." she shrugged. I was worth a shot.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

ooc: worth a SHOT haha, bad pun

Sider took a deep breath closing his eyes tried to remember. Flashes of lightning going on outside, you could hear millions of raindrops racing and hitting the ground. The wind seemed furious, for everytime it gusted you could feel the garage grasping for dear life at the foundation.

Sider raised his arms and a light appeared within his palms.

The tremble of the innocent, the smell of fear in the air, the shaking of cold bodies about to meet their fate.

A flash of lightning struck across Sider's eyes as he reared his hands back. The light in his hands had grown into a very large fireball, bigger than the large one he fired earlier. A single tear dropped down Sider's right cheeck as he envisioned his mother getting stabbed.

With that he released the fireball. It came off with such an amount of force, not to mention Sider had not taken a stance for firing, He got launched back about 5 feet. The fireball was massive, but completely unstable, Sider simply didn't know how to control it, let alone if it did hit anyone, the damage caused to them would be a little more than a simple paper cut. The unstable fireball continued forward and imploded about a tenth of a mile away, making a very large noise and a scorch mark on the ground.

"UGH!" Sider remarked as his back hit the ground. "Nah! don't worry about he i'll be ok!" Sider lied trying to force his own body to move into a standing position, and failing.
