Giants Strike - Dragon Defense

[Kyrie Blaze]

From goosebumps to a chill that would likely induce a shiver, when the watch left Kyrie's hand, David would be able to feel the crawling sensation of vibrational distortion over his form. It would be a few minutes before his body would settle with this rather eerie sensation, but soon enough it wouldn't be noticeable as the watch itself did its work.

'So...that is what it does.'

With her mask on, Kyrie's sensory capabilities granted by the mask distorted. And though she knew exactly how powerful he was before giving him the watch - and mildly aware of what boosts the watch gave from holding it, herself - she could no longer see the levels of power he held.

More than that, too, had she not known what his qi was...she wouldn't have the faintest idea, now. She breathed a sigh, looking up.

"...it is a gift, David," It came without a price, like so many other gifts she'd given. "And mine to give. If you do not want to accept or if it does not please you, then you may return it."

Whether it was the materials themselves that held the power, or that they had been stored so long wrapped in her qi, or even a combination thereof...she was pleased with what it could do. And she wondered if there was more.

She would leave him enough time to make his decision before she let her eyes drift to Hyperion to feel a slight amount of ease.

"I will see how many I can take, now, if that is alright with you..?"

The blonde would fall to silence and walk amongst the bodies of the dead, looking for those with the red on the inside of their sleeves. She would point them out...and once she found at least six, drew herself to her knees and touched her palm to the fallen Titan's forehead, attempting to channel her will through the mask to grant that temporary, manipulated life to the Officer.

"Rise and sit up, please."

She exhaled as the deceased's eyes opened, glowing a faint blue. The former Officer did as she bade.

When she tried it on the next, however...it didn't work. She nodded to herself, though she had hoped for more. It would be something she would need to work on, then, to expand that limit.

Kyrie sighed and looked up at Hyperion. She thought she would need more to draw either or both Khaos and Kronos out.

"Would it be possible for David to transport the others I pointed out--as many as he can take, at least, out of them?"

[David B.]

David frowned.

Why would she suggest he didn't want it?

He slowly put it on, then glanced at Hyperion before putting his gaze back at her. He knew she and him had done something a few moments ago- he was no fool, and knew the smooth touch of Qi. But he wouldn't question her now. He glanced over his shoulder at the wounded before turning his gaze back to her.

"We need to talk after we get everyone back. So...lets wrap this up."

He'd walk away, leaving Hyperion to watch her do her think. He stared hard as the Titans eyes opened....but didn't say anything at the pain of seeing that lance through his chest.

"You...may. I assume then that I may take the wounded?"

There were probably 30 Titans that were wounded so...he assumed she knew the number.

[Kyrie Blaze]

Distractions and deterrents.

But, putting David out of her mind for now, she didn't have to even look at Hyperion to know that it would pain him. She tried to make this as quick as possible.

She looked up at him and nodded.

"My word is my bond, Hyperion; of course you may. You may take your wounded and the rest of your dead. I believe...from the reports as we first fell under attack, this was not the only place in our territory that has seen battle."

[David B.]

Hyperion would turn to the wounded and whistle. The wounded would stand, limp or hamper...but once up would look at him gratefully. He held out a hand, palm facing toward them....and they vanished in a flash of light. He took a deep breath- that many transports was hard. But it worked. He turned back toward her.

"Thanks. This sort of thing...will help in relations between the Titan Collosi and you."

Obviously, his army and group was called the Collosi...and why seemed quite obvious.

[Kyrie Blaze]

She remained where she was, knee bent and pressed to the earth, just watching him quietly. She silently nodded--she knew.

"I will ensure the bodies we have will be transported to the Wall and that no harm shall come to them from David, myself, or if any come with us..."

She took a breath--she could feel the mask becoming too much to hold onto, and would spare Hyperion from watching his former comrade fall back to the ground. She moved to the animated body and spoke quietly, giving him the order to lie down and close his eyes before the mask flickered and dissipated from around her face. The body sagged and slumped in its position.

She looked back to Hyperion, feeling weary, though it did not show much at all.

[David B.]

He nodded.

"Thank you."

He sighed.

"She...had more to tell you. She wanted to walk you through the future you had in front of you...but left it all for me to know. I have seen...alot, Kiyr. About you. You will be a great leader...when David dies, and Mathew, and Leon. And that...might be sooner than you think."

He would scratch the back of his head.

"Just...stay with him. With David. Or it will eat him up."

He would turn to go.

[Kyrie Blaze]

Kyrie's eyes flashed up to Hyperion for his words. Not about her--but when he tread upon the deaths of the three Elders. Two more than three, but, apparently, one overall that made her heart give a pained twist. She went sheet white, even knowing she would likely face their deaths, and his, sooner or later.

If she found there was absolutely no hope for Themis' soul to be released, and her form revived...she would not even ask for Hyperion to take the Titan Circle back. She had not been joking in the slightest when she spoke of the fact that a loved one should never have to be without the other half of them.

The salt of her tears stung her eyes. She clenched them shut and drew in a sharp breath.

"...Hyperion, you must have at least guessed by now what I plan to do by taking the bodies to the Wall." It was not revenge, but it could very well border dangerously close to being such a thing, depending on the events after making it to the wall and the initial meeting with Gaia. Her voice shook and she had to concentrate, hard, to even it out. "I do not intend on throwing away what you and Themis both have done for and given to me...and though I do not invite you along I have no say in if you will follow or watch."

She stood, still and almost frozen. She was saying he could do as he pleased, but all the same, she didn't necessarily wish for him to be there. She did not stop him, but let him go...because if she moved forward, now, she would probably crack further still and break down to tears. Everything was so jarring and she didn't want to think or deal with the pain of losing more than she had, already.

Soon enough she would, but didn't want to for the moment.

[David B.]

He spoke in much the same way he had when he left with Themis long before.

"All I can say is this- remember to let the light burn bright, and call to the sun if you need me...Kyrie."

He stopped, looking back and giving a half crooked grin and a wink...before vanishing in a flash of light.

[Kyrie Blaze]

The blonde's eyes softened a little...and she gave a solemn yet...almost half-hearted nod despite his grin and wink flagging her wavering moral.

Well...she would continue and find out what she needed to know.

...and she hoped that David would not jump on her to talk right this moment. She turned away and began to help, leaving the bodies of the Titans they were allotted to the wayside. Soon enough they would have to go with them as she didn't know how long after death she could reanimate bodies.
