He sits back down and just waits now. He looks towards the ring. Wonder who my first opponent will be. I'll just leave it a surprise. Hopefully it's not any of the other Saiyans here. Hopefully the Namekians and Nai were lying. Maybe there is someone of my level here...

In response to what Couric said about just three people showing up, Julia commented... "That'd be no fun at all..." And she's sure she's not a saiyan, right?

"Heh. You positive you aren't a saiyan who had their tail cut off when they were young?" Couric asked, still surprised by the fact that Julia really seemed to be acting like a saiyan would in the same situation.

"Oh I'm sure..." She trails off, while thinking... "This is worrying... this must be some of my programming rising to the surface... what's going to happen later? Will it all come out? Will I lose control some day?!"

"Heh."
Couric leaned back, laying down and looking up towards the sky, arms supporting the back of his head. And then a headache hit the teen, causing him to wince in pain. It was that 'screaming' again...

Julia turns to look at Couric, and asks... "Hey, what's wrong? You got a flash headache all of a sudden, Couric?"

"I dunno...Just keep hearing something 'screaming' and it's making my head..." Couric replied, pressing a palm against his forehead.
"Like a high-pitched drone....Really damn annoying..."

"Oh... that doesn't sound good... does it sound familiar to anything or is this something completely new that started in your head..." "Maybe it's the evil Couric wanting to get out after so long."

"No...I don't think it's familiar..." Couric replied, rubbing his forehead with his right palm, the pain beginning to die down.
"Don't worry about it...It'll probably go away soon..."
/I hope./

"Well that's weird... hmm... want me to get a healer for you? Maybe their magic can do more than just fix wounds." "Except his eye..." She's getting more uncomfortable about her friend being like this, but she's trying to help.

"Nah. I'll be fine..." Couric reassured her, not wanting her to have to run off to find a healer in case the tournament started early. Moving his palm down from his forehead, he let out a sigh, the pain beginning to fade away.

"All right... but if it gets too bad I'm gonna have to call someone." She gives Couric time to recover, but she spots that he had his palm on his forehead, and remembers something... which causes her to freeze... "Oh no..."

"It's getting better, Julia." Couric said, trying to keep her from making some crazy assumption, the pain just about gone by now. It wasn't fully, but it was disappearing bit by bit.

"I hope so... but... Couric... I have a question..." She takes a pause, and then adds... "...it's about your fusion with the Cajabastard."
|

Post by unholylssj on Jul 6, 2009 10:46:05 GMT -5
"Eh!? You knew about that?" Couric asked, eyes a bit wide. He hadn't known that Julia, Gozu, and anyone else who actually mattered had been made aware of the fusion by the two wizards who had given Cajabe his power.

|
Post by Katatonia on Jul 6, 2009 10:47:54 GMT -5
"Well yeah... some crazy wizards got in to everyone's heads apparently to brag about Cajabe's power while he was fused with you..." She explains, while trying to figure out how to ask the question.

"Crazy wizards...?" Couric asked, staring at Julia blankly, his expression showing that he didn't quite believe that...or just found it amazingly lame a concept. Either way, he'd let her continue with whatever she was saying.

Post by Katatonia on Jul 6, 2009 10:51:18 GMT -5
"Yeah... anyway... uhm... do you remember anything from being fused with Cajabe... even some of his own memories... sorry if this sounds weird..."
|

Post by unholylssj on Jul 6, 2009 10:53:33 GMT -5
"I remember the fight somewhat...but it's a bit blurry at points..." Couric replied, folding his arms across his chest as he sat up.
"But anything from Cajabe's memories...? I don't think so...?"

Post by Katatonia on Jul 6, 2009 10:55:41 GMT -5
"Okay... because... well... when you split... you had the same mark on your forehead as Cajabe for a split second..." Her voice suddenly became a little shaky just thinking about it... it was very upsetting to see what she saw back then.

"Eh...? I had that mark on my head...?" Couric asked, obviously confused. He didn't remember that at all..and he was pretty sure he would if something like that was etched into his skull.
|
|
|
Post by Katatonia on Jul 6, 2009 11:00:42 GMT -5
"Yeah... but it was just probably because the fusion had the mark, and it took a moment to fade away from you when you got out... I don't know..." She's calming down a little, now.
|

Post by unholylssj on Jul 6, 2009 11:05:25 GMT -5
"Maybe....But at least I'm still me, right?" Couric said, smiling at Julia. He may not know what was causing his headaches or what the hell had gone on while he was fused, but he didn't really care.

Post by Katatonia on Jul 6, 2009 11:13:13 GMT -5
"Yeah... wouldn't want any encouragement for the 'other guy' to come out... I'm happy as long as you're here." She gives Couric a little smile.

Post by unholylssj on Jul 6, 2009 11:15:50 GMT -5
"Heh..."
Couric returned the smile, still somewhat thinking about the battle that had taken place on Icer...and it seemed like there was something he had forgotten...but all he could do was just smile at Julia.

After some time, Julia laid herself back, with her hands behind her head... and waited... staring at the sky... "Jeez, this is taking ages..." Impatience is back.

And then it hit him like a bag of bricks upside the back of the head...thankfully there weren't any real bags of bricks. But almost immediately, he pressed his palm against his face and swore under his breath, pissed at himself for having forgotten.

She heard Couric's hand slap in to his face, and turned slightly... "Is the headache back again, Couric?"

Post by unholylssj on Jul 6, 2009 11:22:40 GMT -5
"No....I completely forgot to tell you and Gozu something before we left that planet..." Couric replied, the memory all too fresh in his mind now that he actually remembered.

"Oh... what was it...?" She shifts around to be on her side... propping her head up on one hand supported by her elbow on the ground.
