THROWS mu Kai at Gao canon

[samezu_kai]

(Sooo out of practice with this, sorry. D:)



A cave. He's in a fucking cave. Why. Where the hell is here and what happened to the base?

Damn it, is anyone else even around? Times like this, being able to talk and yell for people would be helpful.

Fuck.

There's growing light in this big cavern thing. I frown, trying to get a sense of where it's coming from. "Is that sunrise?"

Kai's safe enough with Ragi there. I pad over to the - doorway? Is that what it is? Then yelp and have to grab at the wall before I fall out.

"Wherever we are, we're flying!"

Flying? I make my way over to where he's standing, Ragi behind me, because of course he is, and crane my neck to see what Shirogane's looking at.

I pull my head back in quickly before the wind can tug it off, but I can't help but grin at the sight anyway. Proper sky! Not something I get to see very often.

[sadgoobers]

[Shirogane]

Of course Kai's not bothered at all. I smile back, reluctantly.

"It's beautiful, isn't it."

I take another look. This... this doesn't look like our level of technology at all. Vaguely aware that I could be broadcasting to both of the brothers behind me, I start wondering. Could it be somewhere completely outside our area of space?

Ragi makes a thoughtful sound behind me, but honestly I'm not that interested. Look at the sky! Look at the clouds. I edge closer slightly to get a better look, scowling when Ragi grabs the back of my shirt with a muttered curse, and then tug hard on Shirogane's arm in excitement. Is that water? I've never seen so much of it in one place.

[sadgoobers]

[Shirogane]

I yelp, grabbing the wall harder. He's not thinking at me so much as just thinking really loudly. "I think it is water," I agree, making an educated guess.

What if... what if this is another alternate universe?

There's so much of it, I say, amazement no doubt colouring everything. Have you ever seen so much, Shirogane? I can't believe it.

So much green, too. So much stuff that's alive. I didn't think anywhere could be like this, at least not outside of stories of the Good Old Days.

[sadgoobers]

[Shirogane]

It's beautiful. I don't have to concentrate on the words so hard now to let Kai pick them up.

...I half don't want to go back.

It is.

I reach out for his hand and squeeze it lightly. It's not hard to pick up the wistfulness and it's not hard to agree, either. This place is amazing.

[sadgoobers]

[Shirogane]

He's so damn sweet.

I wonder briefly what it'd be like for Kai if he'd been able to grow up here. Without the Alliance over their heads. Without all the strain.

These people probably have their own problems, but I bet it's not that bad.

[samezu_kai]

I lean into him, happy to just be in the moment for once.

It takes longer than it probably should to realise there's another presence hovering. One that isn't called either Shirogane or Ragi.

[sadgoobers]

[Shirogane]

I take a step back, reflexively trying to tuck him behind me. Though I don't know how the hell I can protect him from this.

[samezu_kai]

I scowl as Shirogane tries to hide me, stepping around him so I can see... whatever it is better. I also twist away when Ragi hisses and tries to pull me back.

It's not going to hurt me, I tell them. I know that somehow, though I don't know how. Whatever it is, it would no more hurt me than either of them would.

Hi, I say carefully, reaching out a hand to it and hoping it can hear me. I'm Kai.

[sadgoobers]

Kai shifts around me, and avoids Ragi at the same time. I exchange a rueful look with Ragi.

There's the oddest sense of welcoming from the big blue floating fish.

Ragi

[samezu_kai]

I find myself grinding my teeth in frustration. How does Kai always find trouble? Is it some kind of gift??

"What is that?" I ask flatly. Aside from trouble, because of course it will be.

And right on time there's a yell of outrage behind me.

"Hey, what the hell!"

It's... it's another Kai. Oh no, I can't deal with the amount of trouble two of them will cause. Still, this Kai looks - and feels - both confused and annoyed and I can't tell if that's a good sign or a bad one.

[sadgoobers]

[Shirogane]

I spin, dropping into a defensive position reflexively. I still don't trust this guy, not at all.

"He's not doing any harm," I snap.

[samezu_kai]

I can't believe GaoShark. What is he doing?

And oh, I'm not taking that from impostor!Silver. No way. Who does he think he is??

"He shouldn't be playing around with other peoples Power Animals," I snap back. Especially not mine. Poacher.
