"Three...."
/How can anyone put up with this woman? Hell, why the hell did that idiot even get angry enough to be bothered when that moron snapped her spine!?/
"Two...."

She just can't hold it back anymore... sobs begin to escape her throat... again and again... her tears begin to land on Couric's chest. "I want my friend back! How could this have happened to him?! Who is this awful guy in his place?!"

"ONE!" 'Couric' brought his right hand up, aiming to hit Julia right in the face with it to knock her back away from him. But it stopped right before it hit her face for some odd reason. Had he decided against it or something? Or did he just not feel like hitting the android?

Julia still had her eyes shut, so she didn't see the fist... but she felt a sudden gust of air rush at her face for a moment... "What's he going to do now? I haven't let go! ...you know what, he can do what he likes. I won't let go." Another sob or two is heard.

"Why's my skin wet and it feels like something's holding onto me...?" Couric asked, not yet realizing that Julia was currently attached to him...by means of hug. The voice that spoke seemed to tremble, as though who it belonged to was terrified of something.

"Huh...?" Julia opens here eyes a little, and asks... "Couric...?" "His voice is different... could he be back...?"

"H-huh....?" He turned his head slightly to the left, seeing nothing...and then he turned his head to the right, only to see Julia....and then immediately go red in the face. And then his face began emitting a bright crimson glow. Surprisingly, he hadn't lost consciousness quite yet...

"Is it him?" "Are you... all right?" She asks, still keeping her eyes shut tight, worried that the other Couric may come back any minute now.

Couric slumped backwards, slipping out of Julia's grip and hitting one of her knockers with the back of his head on the fall down. He still had somehow not lost consciousness, face burning a bit duller than it had the last time. But...that pretty much confirmed who it was.

"Whoa-!" She shifts herself as Couric slumps backwards, and tries to support him with her arms and slowly lower him to the floor. Totally ignoring what she felt from the back of his head... wasn't his fault, and she's in no mood to be mad at this Couric.

Couric lay there, face burning pretty brightly, though it was beginning to die down. After a few minutes, he'd open his mouth to speak, only for a bit of steam to escape, rising into the air. Yup, he was definitely back to normal now.

Julia sits down in front of Couric, finally smiling a little... "Hey..." She would say, offering a bit of silence afterwards to let Couric have a moment to work out whatever had him so flustered like this.

He moved to speak again, but even more steam escaped his lips. But soon enough, the joke would get old, Couric's face turning back to its normal color. He looked up at Julia, the slightest hint of fear in his eye.
"Wh...Where am I...?"

"I think we're on the planet where you can train with Goku... whatever it's called..." She answers, not saying much else... she would ask Couric about what he remembers, but believes that would be a terrible idea and bring out terrible memories to the surface.

"Oh...." His hand drew up to his eye, wincing as his palm even approached the destroyed remnants. Couric sighed and just lay there, staring down in the direction of his feet.
/One lost eye and I feel like I've been broken in half.../

"Yeah... your eye's gone... but I'm sure you can get it back the next time you eat a senzu or something... those beans are awesome, right?" She says, noticing Couric reaching for his eye, and trying to lighten him up, badly.

Post by unholylssj on Jun 17, 2009 12:45:32 GMT -5
"But...isn't that why I'm not injured anymore...?" He asked, having thought Julia or someone else had used a senzu on him. He hadn't even considered that he had been healed with ki or something.
/It really stings.../

"No... that was a namek's healing power... they probably can't regrow other people's body parts..." She says, trying not to look at Couric's eye... or lack there of.

"But the holes in arms and legs are gone...." Couric reminded her, grimacing as he remembered just the events that had caused those. He looked pretty damn tired, even after being healed up and having rested a bit. Perhaps his body still felt the toll of losing a good bit of blood...

Julia shrugs her shoulders, and, lost for what to say, answers... "Well... I don't know... I don't think it's possible for some crazy curse to be put on someone to prevent them ever getting their eye back... that would be stupid... wouldn't it? I'm sure there's a way to get it back." Oh shi-

There was a good minute or so bit of silence from Couric, his hand still covering his eye.
"That demon....he had said that this was a parting gift to remember him by..." Couric muttered, pain once again hitting his mind. He could barely remember what had happened when the demon had practically gouged his eye out, but he definitely recalled that.

After a moment of silence, Julia, staring at the ground, declares to Couric... "You know... that Cajabe guy who threw you to those creeps... I'll make him pay... some day. When I get a full mastery on my powers. I can't believe I'm actually able to say something like this, but... He's dead."

Couric's eyes widened as he heard Julia, looking up at her for a second or so before he turned his attention back towards the ground. /She wants to kill him...which means she'll probably track him down and fight him some day.../
"Julia...I'll beat him. Don't worry about it..."

Julia shakes her head, and looks up at Couric... "No... I want to be a part of this... don't stop me in this... you can help me all you want... but there's no way I'm standing on the sidelines now. I've already seen the type of person he's become... when he told me what happened to you..." This may shock Couric that she's already tracked him down and confronted him.

"What!?"
"You actually teleported to him!? Are you insane?!" Couric's eye was as wide as a dinner plate right now, remembering what the older saiyan had said when he even mentioned Julia during their previous fight.
/What didn't go to hell while I was stuck in Hell!?/

Julia nods her head, and tells him about it... "Yeah... I found him on Earth... and I demanded he take me to where you were... he brought me to the right planet, and I went off to find you." She leaves out the bit about having taken control over him in his untransformed and weighted state. So this will probably sound completely like it should've been impossible to Couric.

"...Julia? Did you eat some bad mushrooms or something..?" He asked, barely even believing the android's story. After all, Cajabe wasn't exactly much of a slouch when it came to fighting. In fact, it was the complete opposite.

"Uhm..." She blinks... and decides to try describing in more detail... "I appeared... we talked... he said some things only a complete bastard would be able to say in the way he said them... so I choked him and held him at knife-point..." She looks at her hand as she says 'knife-point', forming quickly a blade of ki around her fingers for a second, and then letting it fade, before continuing. "...he felt kind'a heavy though when I did that, but anyway, he agreed to teleport me to the Demon World, then I threw his face in the dirt and flew off before he could get up and try to fight back. Then I found you."

"Riiiiight...." Couric muttered, about to say more when another wave of pain washed over him. Blood began to drip down from behind his hand, obviously from the eye socket. He swore under his breath as he tried to sit up, using Julia as support for a second by trying to lean up against her if she'd let him.
/I need to get this healed somehow...or else this pain won't stop..../

"Yeah, I can barely believe it, either... I think I just caught him unprepared is all... heh..." She says, before Couric began feeling the pain... and she turns to the namekians nearby, saying... "I think he still needs more help... his eye's bleeding!" Turning back, she helps Couric stay steady by being a support for him. "Damnit. If it weren't for that bastard..." She looks determined to go along with her plans to get Cajabe one day more than anything.
