Back by popular demand. With 25% more sexy to boot. I'm not really up on what's been going on, so I'm just gonna roll with it as best as I can. I'm back, under the condition that no BS comes my way. If there's going to be a problem, just let me know flat out, and I'll be on my way. Anyway.... With that said and established....
Well, where do we begin with Ava....? Hmm.... It just seems like the time melts away with her.... Not really having much of an impact on anything as of late.... Infact, most may think she's dead and gone... Or perhaps just forgot about her all together.... It's understandable. Ava really never wanted any attention from anyone. It just came her way during her pursuit for power. Though, as she lived her serene and tranquil life out on Namek, the pursuit of power began to fade away. Her human nature once again taking hold of her consciousness, allowing her to lead a (mostly) normal life.
Ava continued to train and all, though not for more power, just to stay physically fit and in shape. Three years pass, and she continues to keep to herself. No longer getting involved with matters that don't concern her. Having loss contact with Nai long ago, she never bothered to try and seek him or Shen out. They were fully capable of handling themselves. Nai was stronger than her in fact, so what did it matter if she was with him or not? As for anyone else? Well, she hasn't had any contact with Shiro in about 5 years now (adding on the 3 year TS)... Same for Gozu, Master Roshi and Korin....
While her pursuit for power had ended, her quest to find out more about her past and what had happened to her became her main priority. She needed to find him again.... She needed to find Thomas and get to the bottom of what had happened those years ago... So her search ended up leading her to a far out forest planet named Availon. There, she finally found Thomas... Doing what he did best.... Drink and lay up with women.... (Hot Elven girls no less
) Needless to say, Thomas wasn't happy in the least to see she had sought him out.... And Ava wasn't happy of course to find him doing what he was doing.
The fact that they had a psychic bond only made matters worst the more they were around one another... She could see/feel his thoughts and emotions... And vice-versa... She knew why he did what he did... To drown out the pain of losing the only other woman he ever loved... To drown out the pain of not being able to save countless amount of lives... Through this, Ava began to gain feelings for Thomas due to their bond... Though of course, Thomas turned her away. Unwilling to let his love go, he was determined to find a way to make it all right again.
Ava understood this, and despite it all, stuck by Thomas as the two of them set out together to make their lives right again... Scrapping the universe from corner to corner, the two continued to find out about any special item, person, etc. that could help out with their dilemmas, though in the end, it was all for not.... Perhaps overall, it was just meant to be this way... Thomas wasn't one to believe in fate, but it seemed like there was no denying it... No second chances.... As time passed throughout their travels, Thomas' determination and will power began to fade away... He began drinking more and more.... Becoming more and more violent... Despite Ava's pleas for him to keep it together, Thomas just couldn't keep himself afloat...
Cracking under his own self-pity and resentment, Thomas once again leaves Ava to God only knows where... Which leads Ava to continue on her own... Eventually her scouring the universe finally shows a bit of light through the gloom.... A fable of seven magical orbs that when all are gathered, will summon a powerful dragon able to grant any one wish the heart may desire.... Could this really be true....?! A dragon....?! Capable of granting a wish....?! Well, perhaps due to her weary spirit, or maybe just the last bit of hope inside of her that wanted to believe it, gave her the confidence once again to do what needed to be done...
If she could obtain these orbs.....these Dragonballs.... She could finally gain her memories back... Or even better, possibly rid herself of the unwanted DNA inside of her... She could go back to being human once again... The thought of the payoff was too great ignore. So, she began finding out as much as she could about these Dragonballs. Learning of their different types, effects, etc. She was shocked to learn that the orbs were actually CREATED by the Nameks. Which she had made her new home, but had never caught wind of the Dragonballs...
Though that wasn't important now... What was, was getting her hands on all seven Earth or Namekian DBs... Taking heed not to tamper with the Black Star DBs.... Gaining them would be no easy task.... She knew that many knew of the DBs... Many with power to force their "influence" on others.... Much to her dismay, she knew what she had to do to gain them... She had to once again tap into that "other" side of herself.... Only through embracing the darkness, could she make it into the light once more...
This was it... Her mind was made up... It had to be done, anyway she could get it done... On her power alone however, she wasn't able to break certain "thresholds" in her power/ki output... That's where Thomas came back into the picture... During their travels, she saw full well the extent of his abilities... Unlike anything she had ever seen or felt before... Only the powers she felt training with Goku and Pikkon exceeded Thomas'. Though despite that, Thomas had a "violent-grace" about him... It sounds crazy, yes, but it was true. No matter how drunk or violent he became, he always fought with unmatched grace and coordination... She needed to learn more about his power to better understand her own....
Finding him again wasn't easy... Though luckily the bond between them basically allowed her to find him where ever he may have went to... Surprising, she found him back on Earth (after it being restored back and all, not knowing herself that Earth had been destroyed...), sat against a wall in a back alley... Drunk and beaten up... Clearly he had allowed himself to be the victim of some thugs or what not, just taking the punishment as some sad form or remorse... A empty vodka bottle grasped tightly by the neck of the bottle in his right hand... His eyes closed and his head hung down as she stood infront of him....
"Nova.... What happe-..."
"Don't call me that... I told you NOT to call me that... What do you want Ava...? I told you I never wanted to see you again..."
"Fine....Thomas.... Y-You know what I want."
"Indeed I do... I just wanted to see if you'd have the guts to say it out right..."
"W-What...? What's that suppose to mean?!"
"Y'know what it means.... So, you wanna be a killer eh...? You want more power eh...?"
"Shut up, Thomas! Don't try to contort things! I'm not here for you! You're a loss cause! Yes, I want you to show me how to control and harness this power we have...
Low, almost inaudible laughter could be heard from Thomas as he listened to Ava speak. The laughter grew in volume, until he was laughing hysterically at her, stumbling up to be stood hunched over infront of her. He seemed to be drunk heavily, though suddenly, he lunged forward at Ava, grasping her by around biceps, and pinning her to the wall behind her... Tilting his head to the right slight as he peered at her, a malevolent grin creeps across his face... His right eye was heavily bandaged as always, so only his left/crimson eye was visible...
"I should kill you right now... Taking heed to what I say is healthy for you... It'll keep you alive... Your quest for your memories is going to be short lived... You can't do what I do... You'll never be able to do what I do... What makes you think you could ever possess the power I possess...? You're just some lab rat... A nobody who was lucky enough to survive being injected with my DNA.. That's it! End of story! You have no past! And you don't have much of a future either! With the way you're headed!"
Ava winced in pain as Thomas pinned her against the wall. She tried to free herself, but she knew if she did anything, he'd make good on his words to kill her...
"Thomas please! D-Don't do this! W-With the Dragonballs... We can make it all right again.... We can regain our lives back... There has to be more to it than just me being a experiment... D-Don't give up, Thomas.... I know it's been hard all these years... But we finally have a chance to make it all right... Please help me... Just one more time... Help me harness my power... Help me learn to control it, not let it control me... You have that ability. The power doesn't control you...
The grin fades away from his face... He could feel her thoughts and emotion... He could feel that she truly meant ever word she said... That she was really confident they could finally make things right...
"These Dragonballs...they could really bring her back...?"
"Yes Thomas. We can finally get what we both want... Just show me... I promise that I'll get them. I just need you to show me...."
"Fine.... If there's a chance.... Then I'll help you... This is the last time, Ava... If this doesn't work... If you fail... I'll kill you the next time our paths cross..."
With that agreed upon, Ava and Thomas set out back to Namek, to begin her vigorous training of controlling the power inside of her.... Thomas taught her how to control her power... Taught her how to rid herself of the voices, the unwanted impulses to do things she didn't want to do. He taught her how to harness her power. In ways only he could, because they shared the same power. Once he felt she had learned enough from him, Thomas once again set out on his own. Telling her the rest had to be learned through personal experience... She had to put it to the test herself. Finding and gathering all the DBs was her final test of control and results.
Continuing her duties as Guru's guard all the while, Ava sets her focus now on gathering the DBs for her and Thomas' sake... The rest of their lives depending on her success... With a new sense of confidence and focused power, Ava sets out to reclaim her life... To finally do what needs to be done...
