Bolts of lightning flashed against the inky clouds covering the skies. Heavy downpour whipped the rocky earth below. Cold winds howled. Some ways from the famous West City, a large village seemed eerily quiet. Well, it wasn’t really strange that nobody was outside in this kind of weather, but the buildings seemed dark and lifeless too. Not even lights in the windows. Between the rain and the rumbling, it was hard to catch any sounds, but... A shrill scream echoed from somewhere. It was shortly followed by another flash, only pink in color, before a huge explosion leveled a house. The storm drowned the crumbling and smothered the rising smoke. Suddenly, there was movement. Several burly shadows rushed across the streets, gathering at the ruined building. Words and nods were hastily exchanged. The shadows scattered again, each slipping inside one of the many buildings. A couple of them went into what looked like a school, some slipped inside a local store and the rest chose regular homes. Soon, something else moved in the darkness. A flash painted a long, twisted shadow against the pavement. Red eyes gleamed in the darkness, accompanied by a crescent grin. It rushed towards one of the homes and leapt right through the window. Glass shattered. Another scream echoed into the cold, uncaring darkness. Inside one of the other shelters, a radio died with a buzz of static. A wizened martial artist clutched it in his grasp. “It... got another one...” His brow furrowed, anger drawing serious lines across his features. He flipped the channel and pressed a button. “Attention everyone... Marky is... gone. We must steel our resolve. Don’t let that weirdly-colored creature anywhere near the villagers. Let us protect them with our lives!” As confirmations rang through the communications, the veteran took a deep breath. Focus... He had to focus... Quietly he prayed that someone, anyone, would come and help them against this unspeakable monster. Meanwhile, a certain small Majin was having... so... much... fun~! In the past couple of days she had seen lots of new things! But it didn’t really feel the same when none of her friends were around... Spurred by a weird, empty feeling inside her chest, she had decided to play some Raiding Party. Just like back home. Some people around here were pretty strong too! But then it started raining... Bleh... So everybody went inside and now they were playing Hide and Go Boom instead! And she was winning... Her grin sharpened as she crept up on another big man in funny, orange pajamas. Pink energy crackled and her voice rang through the room. “Peekaboo~! I found you~!” ...Boom. WC: 444 | 444 Tags: Baccer

there was quiet, deathly quiet... then a crude, ear-splitting sound permiated through. The blue creature walked through the streets, letting out a sound most foul from it's beak.... Baccer was trying to whistle. He had been introduced to the concept in pilaf-land, and was practicing it all the way towards west city. Meanwhile the bugman thought of taking a break in one of the rural villages that surrounded the area. But this one was rather weird, it was... empty. He raised a brow and looked around at the streets, before shouting, unaware of the situation "Hello, anyone there?!" he asked, walking around until the side of his eye caught movement in one of the structures. Qurious, he went to check it out What the android found was a burly, middle-aged man cowering in the corner of his house that screeched once he saw him "Gah, now there's two of them!" he exclaimed, causing Baccer to blink in surprise "two?. What do you mean" he asked, before the man grit his teeth "don't try to deceive me freak. I know you're with the pink one, there's no way someone like you is a native" "the... pink one?" Baccer exclaimed, truly puzzled "do... do you really not know?" the man asked shocked, before an idea came to him. In a flash, he dashed towards Baccer.... before falling to his knees and clasping his hands together "oh please, noble creature. You must help us. The pink demon has attacked out village unprovoked, and is taking out everyone. Woe is us" he said in an overly dramatic tone At that moment several thought passed through Baccer's head. On one hand, this might be a trap. On the other, he would never get a better chance to be the hero. And if this creature was strong enough to terrify and entire village like that... his saiyan side got the better of him as he raised a bro and asked "so you're saying all i have to do is convince that creature to stop attacking and i'll be a hero?" "a what?- i-i mean yes, yes. A hero like no other. No, a living legend" the man said, causing Baccer to puff up with pride "then say no more noblle citizen, Baccer is here to save the day" he said, making his best superhero impression before walking outside "w-what are you doing O mighty he-" "HEEEEEY!. Pink demon, are you around?. I heard you're strong, so i want to ask you to stop attacking the town" Baccer yelled, using his sound-emitting wings as a megaphnse to reach the entire village. The man behind him was left slack-jawed, realising this would draw Zam straight to them, and just how bad on an idea asking this bug's help was WC: 461/461 Majin Zam

As another house collapsed in a smoldering heap, the pink menace bounced out of the rubble. She hummed happily while her scrapes healed. Her curious gaze was drawn to the slowly spreading red stain at her feet. Hm hm, these people were kinda strong, but they sure were lazy... This one went to sleep too! Oh well~! Her pale horns wiggled, snooping what eyes couldn’t see. Luckily she could still feel plenty of big tingles around. Ooh, and there was a new one there! It felt kinda familiar... Buuut that thought was quickly discarded. Her crimson stare focused on the next house. Someone was in there too... She was really good at this~! Slowly the magical monster tiptoed close to the front door. She was being sneaky! A word she had learned from her demon friends. It meant being suuuper quiet before making something go boom. Meanwhile, the brawny defender on the other side held his breath. The unnatural energy sent shivers down his spine. It felt... weird. Wrong. Completely inhuman. What was that thing...? He could feel the creature drawing closer... Pressing its hand against the flimsy wooden barricade... This was it then. The fighter clenched his teeth and made his peace. He was not going down without a fight! As soon as that thing broke through, he would show it the power of the Raging Bull style! Just before the chaotic creature bashed the door down, a sudden shout stole her attention. She froze on her tracks, listening carefully. Her gaze trailed towards the sound. ...Or where she thought it was coming from anyway. Hm hm... Quietly she wondered who that weird voice was talking to. Because she was pink, yup. And she was strong too, yup yup. But she was not a demon, she was a Majin! It was totally different! So it couldn’t be her, nope. ...Ooh, if there was a demon around, then she wanted to meet them too! She would help Mister Mystery Voice look for them! Good plan, great plan~! Soon, mischievous laughter chimed from the darkness. The distorted echo danced with the rumbling thunder, making it impossible to pinpoint. Right...? Left...? Front or behind...? Suddenly another explosion shook the village. A less-than-manly shriek pierced the skies. Someone came plummeting down, right towards the lone hero standing in the rain. If his reflexes and brawn were up to snuff, he would catch a badly pummeled beastman, an ox to be exact. And if not... Well... The poor man was going to hit the pavement with a nasty thud. Either way, he was barely breathing anymore. His gi was torn and scorched, like he had tried to block a bomb with his pecs. WC: 451 | 895 Tags: Baccer

A few moments passed... then a few seconds... then a minute. It was getting tiresome for Baccer to hold that pose. The man behind him had been panicking the entire time, which really ruined the bugman's style. However, eventually something actualy happened, as a man was launched towards him. Baccer was quick to catch the beastman, but there wasn't much he could do for him, instead handing him to the burly man behind him "umm... i think this is yours" he said awkwardly, before looking outwards again. It seemed this "pink demon" was not playing around. Blowing up a house like that. At least the explosion gave Baccer an idea about where the creature resided at the moment. And thus, the hero ventured off... about 20 meters away from his starting points, looking around the blast zone of the destroyed house "hello. Is this the demon?. I would ask you to stop killing these people" he said, raising a brow. This was getting a bit unnerving, even for him. However, he took solace in the fact that as an android, his energy was non-readable. So he could sneak around and surprise the villain, like proper heroes do. Heh, maybe being a superhero was his true calling after he left the army. After all, he was already so good at it... Wait, energy signatures. He was so absorbed in his superhero shenanigans that he forgot to even check for those. Indeed, there was an overwhelming force somewhat close. One he had felt before. He did feel a hint of pride at how close he had gotten to matching her in such a short amount of time. But this wasn't the time to pat himself on the back. If this was who he thought it was, this was only a fraction of her true power. He didn't want to admit it, but he was rather excited to meet the majin again "Umm... Zam, was it?. are you the one that has been blowing up this village?" Man, what a coincidence meeting Zam here. But if she was indeed the one behind all this, she was way more destructive than he originally thought WC: 360/804 Majin Zam

Yet another home had been reduced to rubble... Broken bricks and scorched timber in a messy pile... The lone investigator’s words got no response. Only more quiet pondering about this demon he kept talking about. He was on the right track though... For better or worse... Every step took him closer to the source of the unnerving energy. It was right there, under the pile of destruction. Savvy people knew there was only one kind of creature in the world that felt so... strange. She had also gotten stronger since their last encounter. Buuut it was impossible to say by how much exactly... Speaking the name worked like a magic word. Zam’s head immediately popped from the rubble, glancing around curiously. “Hm?” Her puzzled expression brightened when she saw a familiar face. “Oh, hi Mister Buggy~!” With a jubilant squeal she launched herself towards the boy. She had enough momentum to send both of them crashing into the nearest wall. If the bugman didn’t avoid the sudden tackle, next he would be subjected to a warm and powerful squeeze. Average creatures would’ve gotten crushed like an empty soda can. She really liked hugs. However... If the marshmallow monster didn’t get her hug, she would fold her arms with a childish pout and mutter something about a meanie... Luckily, the Majin was much too excited to get hung up on little details. Hug or no, she would give her friend some breathing room soon enough. The question was met with eager nodding. “Yup yup! We are playing Hide and Go Boom!” Spreading her arms, she gestured at the destruction all around her. Her mischievous grin sharpened. “And I’m winning~!” She was really good at this game! And that’s when an idea sparked in that chaotic mind. She leaned closer... And closer... Much too close, really. “Hey! Hey, listen!” Her hand rose to pat the boy’s chest, demanding his attention. “Do you wanna play too?” More people meant more fun! While the bugman stalled the chaotic creature, the fearful villagers peered carefully from their hiding places. Whispers were traded back and forth. Was this creature truly a hero, as some suggested? Or just another monster, as many feared? The martial artists were especially wary of the new development. Silent signals were being exchanged. An ally or an enemy? As soon as they got a confirmation, they would make their move... Too many lives had been lost already. They couldn’t afford to wait much longer. WC: 421 | 1316 Tags: Baccer

Baccer continued his investigation through the rubble, searching for the pink majin. But it seemed that he wouldn't need to search for long, as the familiar bubblegum monster tackled him "za-" he tried to say, before he was tackled and promptly squished. Zam's "attack" had caught him off guard. But luckily his regeneration and general resilience made sure he escaped the Majin's enthusiasm unscathed. However, he was shocked to say the least. "I-it's nice to see you too..." he said with a groan, rubbing the back of his head as he stood up. They didn't have that much time to talk when testing desert bikes, but she was acting like they were already besties. But even though he didn't want to admit it, Baccer was rather excited to be able to hang out with someone his age "hide and... go boom?" the android asked, raising a brow before realising what she meant "wait... you've been the one destroying the village?" before he could get an answer, Zam invited him to join her in her little game Baccer was rather torn about this. On one hand he did want the approval of someone so similar to him, on the other... "... you want me to join you in... wrecking the town?" that was something he was... rather reluctant in doing. Sure, he did abandon the ribbon army, and he didn't feel that attacked to humanity... but outright killing them "i mean... maybe we could do something less..." he tried to think of a way to get out of this situation, while also making Zam think he's cool "...boring... yes, boring!" 'ok Baccer, now you got her attention. Don't. Blow. It' these thoughts raced through the bugman's head as he continued "wouldn't you prefer going somewhere with stronger people?. You are winning, but if the entire village loses they will feel sad. So maybe we can go and find new people to play with" he said, hoping his damnest she would agree and not get mad at him WC: 335/1140 Majin Zam

The chaotic creature nodded eagerly on both questions. “Yup yup! In Hide and Go Boom you search for others and make them go boom! That gets you one point! And houses are two points! Whoever gets the most points wins!” And no points for guessing who had taught her the rules to this... game... It was one of her favorites. All her friends loved to play it. Playing it with many people was even more fun! So imagine her surprise when her friend voiced his blunt opinion... It struck like a sledgehammer. Zam’s eyes went wide and her jaw dropped. “B-b-boring...?” She staggered while stammering. Sloooowly she fell backwards and flopped onto the ground. The mean word echoed in her mind. Never one to stay down for long, she soon rolled back onto her feet and huffed grumpily. “You’re boring...” Underlining her scathing retort with a raspberry, she turned her back to him. Hmph, she liked playing Hide and Go Boom. The suggestion to go elsewhere was shot down immediately. “Dun wanna. I like playing here.” Boys were so dumb... Squatting down to sulk, she started doodling vague shapes on the wet dirt. Most of them looked like explosions. Or maybe very pointy flowers. Meanwhile, the lurking defenders were shocked speechless by the sudden development. The monster was... down! Clearly the lone hero had used some ancient secret technique to paralyze it. The defenders exchanged quick glances and nodded to each other. It was now or never! Go go go! In unison they rushed out of hiding. Half a dozen humans and beastmen alike in gray gis swarmed the Majin. Ganging up on the girl, they unleashed a violent beatdown. Mud splashed and dirt splattered as punches and kicks rained down. Each hit sunk easily into her rubbery body. Bit too easily... And she didn’t even seem to react to the pummeling... Aside from starting to crackle with pink energy. WC: 323 | 1639 Tags: Baccer

Baccer didn't mean to insult the Majin. He was actually hoping they could get along. He never had a friend his age... well. That was to be expected since his age was five, but still!. As she sulked away from him, he felt rather awkward. Was he feeling... guilty?. He did stop her from destroying the village, right?. He should be feeling proud, not bad about himself. Maaan, trying to make friends was tough "u-umm... I didn't mean to insult your game. I-in fact i think hide and go boom is amazing. I was just saying we could go somewhere with stronger people to play it" he said, rubbing the back of his neck. Damn it, why did the red ribbon not programm him to be able to deal with girls. However, as the bugman was contemplating how to fix this all the remaining martial artists rushed the pink girl, starting to pummel her before he had a chance to stop them. A lot of thoughts rushed through Baccer's head at that moment. He was the one responsible for making Zam drop her guard. And since he didn't know about her regenerative capagilities, he thought he'd gotten her seriously injured. A new emotion washed over him: rage. He was angry. Angry at himself for not being able to prevent this, and angry at these people for attacking his new friend "Hey!" he shouted, glaring at them, buying Zam a bit more time. As the puzzled villagers looked over at him, he dashed forward and knocked down two of them with a judo chop to the neck "... Stay away from my friend" he said. His red eyes were focused, determined. In a split second, he took out the rest of the assailants who didn't expect their hero to turn against them. As soon as they were all knocked out, the look on his eyes softened and the air of intensity dissapeared. 'what did you just do you idiot?. You were supposed to save the villagers, not knock them unconscious. Gah, when will you stop messing up?' he thought, panicking in his head. However, he soon noticed Zam still sitting on the ground, seemingly unscathed. He composed himself and went over, offering her a hand "I-i'm sorry about that. I got a little carried away" he said, giving her the most reassuring smile he could... which was an awkward twitch of his beak WC: 401/1541 Tags: Majin Zam

The violent assault was cut short by the bugman’s sudden shout. Naturally he received bewildered stares from the defender. What the-? Shock washed over each one in turn when they realized the so-called hero had already beaten one of them. One martial artist even managed to mutter what all of them were thinking. “Wait, did he say...?” ...Um, almost anyway. In a blink of an eye, the rest were taken down. Falling like human dominoes, they hit the dirt with a rhythmic series of thuds. Somewhere in the shadows, the remaining villagers gasped. All their hopes... Were crushed in an instant... Accepting the offered hand, Zam stood up grumpily. Her body still crackled with an occasional spark of unstable power. Evidently the sudden beatdown hadn’t improved her mood. Go figure... It had left her badly bruised all over. Oooor maybe dented was a more accurate description. She resembled a piece of bubblegum that had been chewed up and spat out. But not for long... Taking a deep breath and holding it, she puffed her chest and muscles. A whistle of hot steam rustled her hair. With a quick pulse and pop, all of her injuries disappeared without a trace. Majin physiology worked in mysterious ways. When the boy suddenly apologized, the pink powerhouse cocked her head quizzically. “Sorry about what?” Nope, she saw no problem with beating up a bunch of people. Bigger demons did that too. As did she. A lot. She pointed at the closest man in funny pajamas. “But that’s not how you get points. You gotta make them go boom.” A tiny pearl of energy manifested at the tip of her finger. Even the small spark held a dangerous amount of power, especially up close. “Like this!” She was helping! “Stop it, monster!”Just before the chaotic creature could fire her blast, a raspy shout stole her attention. She chimed back immediately. “Zam is not a monster! Zam is a Majin, is what Zam is!” One more martial artist had appeared, a wizened old man in midnight black ki. His beard, moustache and wild eyebrows were all white as snow. Slowly, calmly, he took his stance. Despite his advanced age, his muscles bulged beneath his clothing. “I, Master Foldart, shall be your final opponent.” A cold wind howled across the street. Zam blinked. “...But you gotta go hide first.” The awkward comment was enough to shake the veteran’s focus. “I... Er, what?” She took the baffled exclamation as a question. “Yus, hide. We are playing Hide and Go Boom. One side hides and the other comes looking.” Rage and disbelief shook the old master. “D-do you think this is a game?” The girl just nodded. “Yup!” And just like that... Painfully awkward silence filled the air. WC: 464 | 2103 Tags: Baccer

as the dust settled and Baccer helped Zam up, he sighed in relief. For a moment, he believed that it was over... then Zam tried to blow up another one of the martial artists. Baccer's eyes widened. How could he stop her without her getting mad at him?. She really seemed to like this "game" of hers, would he have enough time to explain to her why killing people is evil?. Luckily the sagely master Foldart intervened at just the last second. Now they could... oh wait... now the master martial artist thought these two were in kahoots As they conversed and the black gi wearing master was left baffled, the bugman saw his opportunity "Yes, a game. And we just won, right Zam?. You just have to forfeit, and then we'll have all the points" He then turned to Zam "since this is a game, the losing side can admit defeat. That will give you all the points and make you win the game automatically" god he hoped this worked "and seeing as this gentleman here is obviousy losing, he'd be stupid to not forfeit. So that means you've already won, no need to continue playing... heh..." he laughed awkwardly, while intensely staring at the martial artist. This whole plan hinged on him playing along... and Zam being in a good mood of course WC: 225/ 1766 Tags: Majin Zam

Baccer’s comment filled the void left by the awkward silence. Both sides of the conflict looked at him like he had suddenly grown a second head. Baffled by the strange claim, the old master was left speechless. He wasn’t quite sure if this was a laughable attempt at deception, or a brilliant psychological tactic. Then there was the honor of his fallen friends to consider... Meanwhile, the destructive demon wasn’t really sure what that four-fit thingy meant, but she shuddered at his last sentence. No need to keep playing... But they had just started! And it wasn’t bedtime yet! Slowly the old martial artist’s expression hardened. His body tensed, fingers coiled. muscles trembled. The two sides stared at each other. Tension sparked in the air like imaginary lightning bolts. Actual lightning flashed in the background. Rain drummed the ground. He took a deep breath and the trembling stopped. “I... concede. You win.” Yet he maintained the stance, ready to act if either monster tried anything devious. He wasn’t born yesterday, you know. “So there’s no need to play anymore.” Deep down he hoped... prayed... this wouldn’t come to blows. Now it was Zam’s turn to be baffled. She blinked. Once. Twice. “B-but... That’s not... You can’t...” She liked winning, sure, but not like this! Her expression soured like she had bitten into a lemon. This didn’t feel like winning, not one bit... A faint whistle rose into the air, resembling a teapot forgotten on a stove. Puffs of steam started shooting from the holes lining the girl’s body. “Hnnnnnngh...” Her hands tightened into trembling fists. “You’re both so dumb!” Heavy stomping punctuated her frustration. Tears glimmered in her eyes as she shouted. “I hate you!” Turning away, she rushed off and soon vanished into the stormy night. As far as Majin tantrums went, it could’ve been worse. Much worse... The veteran allowed himself a sigh of relief. He cast a suspicious glance at the bugman. “I... suppose I should thank you.” While the youngster may not have been human, he had undoubtedly taken his side in this incident. Relaxing his stance, he bowed deeply. “Thanks to your actions, the casualties have been... minimized. I am in your debt, young hero.” He knelt down to check on his remaining comrades. They were injured, but thankfully not dead. Between the motions, he muttered idly. “I don’t know what we can do about that creature. According to the ancient legends, Majins are immortal...” If it was true, then there was no way to even fight that fiend. WC: 440 | 2543 Tags: Baccer

Baccer's whole body was tense beyond beliefe in those initial moments after the exchange. He was relieved once the master played along. However Zam seemed to not like that. He wouldn't like to be forced to fight her, but he might have to if she decided to kill all these people anyway. However it seemed that either out of her not wanting to hurt a "friend" or because of sheer luck, the majin decided to storm off instead. Baccer was left in that weird state of awkwardness again. He'd stopped the invasion, but would it be too much to ask she didn't get mad at him?. Now he was a little irritated himself, his own teenage impulses getting the better of him. However he calmed down once the master thanked the bugman at least taking solace in the fact the village was safe thanks to him. "o-oh. Thanks. I guess being a hero really does suit me, huh?" he chuckled a bit. But the next words from the master did put him in thought. Immortal huh?. Well, if a regular human fought him, he was sure he would also seem immortal due to his regeneration. But true immortality?... Well. He could think of that later. Zam did storm off alone into the night. And even though she can more than take care of herself, she can get lost, find her way into another village and then this whole thing would happen all over again. Besides, he may know a place that would interest her enough to make her stop being mad at him. So with that, he bid farawell to the old master and dashed after Zam. Normally it would be difficult to find her, but he had an ace up his sleeve: Echolocation. If he just used the sound his wings emmited, he could turn himself into a mini-sonar. That allowed him to located the pink Majin, but catching up was another deal entirely. As he ran to catch up, he thought of the place he wanted to take her: Satan city. He'd heard that it's protector was away at the moment. And with the help of Zam, he could certainly get access to the high-tech training chamber he installed -the red ribbon can have the weirdest intel at times- Given they could both regenerate, and he actually got stronger by taking damage, this would mean amazing training for both of them. Surely, she wouldn't turn something like this down. Eventually zam would see his blue carapace emerge from the trees behind her, using his wings as pseudo-thrusters to catch up "Zam... wait... I know of a place where you can fight lots of strong people. And get much... much stronger..." he said between pants. Even though he'd reached her, she still beat him in the stamina department by a long shot. So at this moment he had difficulty catching his breath If Zam indeed slowed down and let him explain himself, he would tell her all about Satan city and the gravity chamber they could both get much stronger in. After that, he took a deep breath "Zam, can you keep a secret?" he asked. However he would show her anyway. With a grunt and a sudden motion, he ripped his own arm off. It was rather painful, but definitely not enough to be a serious issue. More importantly, zam could see a new arm shoot out of the stump within seconds "your regeneration... i can do it too. Didn't you always want to fight someone that can endure hits like you?. Imagine how much stronger we can get in the training room since we won't have to hold back against each other" Baccer pitched his idea at Zam, hoping it would pique the Majin's interest enough that she would forgine him WC: 634/2300 Majin Zam

Eventually the bugman caught up the grumpy Majin. She had fled far into the wasteland, to the base of a mountain. A small cave offered some shelter from the cold rain. It was the perfect place to sulk. Reminded her of home. When the boy barged in, he received a grumpy glare. Her eyes were still burning crimson, an ominous contrast to the gentle gold that usually glimmered in her gaze. She sat silently against the wall, curled up like a small ball. The breathless comment was met with a grumpy huff. “I don’t wanna get stronger... I wanna have fun...” The kind of fun she had just been denied. And it was all his fault! On the bright side, the destructive girl didn’t storm off again. Or do something equally drastic. She sat there and listened. The rhythmic song of rain filled the brief pauses in between. An occasional flash of lightning painted their shadows against the wall. The mention of a secret sparked some curiosity at least. Cocking her head, she scooched a little closer and watched the stump. Her lips formed a small o of wonder, when a brand new arm erupted into view. She was the type to wear her heart on her sleeve after all. It was kinda like her regi... ree... healing. Just waaay messier. When the boy was finally done with his spiel, the awkward silence came creeping back. All this yammering about training and getting stronger was definitely his saiyan side talking. Zam, on the other hand, had a different view. She folded her arms and stuck out her tongue. “Bleh, training is boring...” Some of her demon friends had asked her to try it too... But it was all just stupid rules and stuff! Punch like this, don’t do it like that... Practice this, control that... Booooring! She always fought the way that felt familiar. Felt right. And any new things she learned by watching. Majin see, Majin do. Still, the idea of fighting lots of strong people did tickle the Majin’s curiosity. The love for mayhem was in her soul. Previous experiences with big and busy places had left her wary, but... After a moment of pondering, she voiced a question. “Is that place pretty?” Without pausing for long enough to wait for an answer, she suddenly blurted out several more. “Are the strong people nice? Do they have snacks? Can I play games there?” She had her priorities in perfect order. Mmmaaaybe it was a little risky to invite the small destroyer to a place with a lot of people... Did Baccer even realize what he was getting himself into? Hm, probably not. WC: 448 | 2991 Tags: Baccer

As Zam seemed to finally get more interested in his proposition, Baccer got a bit more hopeful. If he could get her to enter the gravity chamber, they could fight each other. That way he'd keep her entertained, whie also getting much stronger than he was before "Food?. People?. Well, Satan city is huge, so it definitely has lots of people. I'd guess they also have restaurants there. And it is definitely pretty" he said, listing off all the pros of satan city. He was glad he finally got her attention, not realising how this could have negative reprocussions Eventually, he looked outside and realised they had lost the sense of time, the rain strating to finally subside. He extended his arm outwards, enjoying the droplets of water splashing in his palm. The outside world was truly wondrous "well. Should we get going then?. The rain has stopped." he said. He would try to get her to understand why they shouldn't just kill everyone there on the road. She... was definitely a peculiar person. Baccer was not sure how to react during most situations involving her. Was that what having a friend was?. Because if so, having a friend was way too complicated. But thinking about that wouldn't help anything. She seemed like she could be a nice person. She was just too childish to understand what she was doing is wrong. Someone may have even manipulated her into thinking that. Maybe training with her would allow him to understand how he could better deal with her outbursts or boredom... or at least, that's what he hoped WC: 267 Total WC: 2567 Majin Zam

When the bugman promised the place had food and lots of people, the little Majin wiped the tears from her eyes. Two out of her three city trips had gone terribly, but she still had an adventurous soul. Going to new places and seeing new things was fun. Eventually she got up and nodded. “Okay...” Maybe it would be a great adventure, like the time she had met Miss Doggy in the pretty city. And if it turned out the city was full of meanies, then she would just make them all go boom. She had always wanted to blow up something really big... Good plan, great plan. Zam walked up to Baccer and gave him a pensive, grumpy stare. She was still mad at him for ruining today’s game, but she knew how he could apologize. “When we get there, I wanna get ice cream...” She held her hand towards him, extending her pinky. “You gotta promise!” Pinky promises were sacred. That meant they couldn’t be broken, no matter what. She had learned that from her demon friends too. They just called them demonic pacts or something like that. Naturally, she wouldn’t be going anywhere until the boy promised. If -or when- the bugman made an unbreakable pact with the small demon, she would finally agree to follow along. Her mood soon improved too. She was too bubbly to sulk for long. Good thing too. Even with their inhuman speed, it would be a looong trek to Satan City all the way from Central Lands. Buuut that was a story for some other time... WC: 268 | 3259 Tags: Baccer
