Derek was playing calmly arround the lake, and made sure Vixen always was able to see him. He didn't know how to reat towards Dosu and her, so decided to step out of the way. He didn't understand what he was feeling.
Tripping near the lake, he looked down in the water. But what he saw wasn't his reflection. It was, but he was much older. And he had marks on his cheek. It didn't destroy his face, but seemed to increase his nobility.
''Are you Derek'' the boy asked.
Derek smiled.
''Yes, I am you. I am what you will become. Listen to me, Derek. You must never let your ambitions dominate you. Never! For you would have lost control over yourself. I know what you are feeling. You have the same love for Vixen as I did, and still do. But to let that love corrupt you will make you no better than what I was before very recently. Promise me, consider the means to be of more importance that the goals.''
And with that sentence, Derek winked affectionately to him and was gone.
Little Derek smiled.
''I won't forget.''
As he looked next to him, he saw a flower. But it wasn't a normal flower. The body and leaves were of stone. The center was of fire and all the petals were of water. It was dancing in a strange wind that seemed to come from nowhere.
Picking it up, he went to Vixen and gave her that flower, thinking she would like it.
''I found this next to me'' he added. It reminded me of you, and I felt it was meant for you.
With one more smile, Derek started running on the field again, as if nothing had happened, but with the thought of Vixen, still burning in his heart.
Vixen shook her head and forced a smile. "No... It will never be you. You're too kind to be the problem." She looked up at Derek as he came over, her heart sank and her smile quickly faded. She saw the flower... That flower that Derek had shown her the first night she met him. Tears welled up in her eyes as she took it. She shook her head and closed her eyes, holding the delicate flower to her chest. "Bad luck will always follow me.... I loose everything, then one man comes into my life.. I loose him, then I gain two more men... But... It breaks my heart to know that some day I will have to choose.." She sighed and opened her eyes, watching the fire dance in the flowers center. "Live in the past and wait for someone I will never see again, take what I have sitting next to me, or wait for a young one to grow... It breaks my heart."
Derek was running in the grass. The presence he had felt, was real. As if it was in him. As if he spoke for himself.
''Derk, I know you'll come back. When you do, please don't kill me and take my place''.
He was sincere, and he didn't understand all that would happen. But he had faith.
The butterflu touched his cheek, and he knew Derek was inside himself. He would bloom better, to what Derek could not have before.
Shadow sighed and ended the connection "I am going to so kill Jeffrey now and that new kid Rogue. " Meanwhile Jeffrey was in the Gym of Hero High, Using Martial Arts alone to beat up the dummy he had set up. "One of these days, I will bring you down for good Shadow. " Rogue then using his power of Earth again went into the Earth. He then walked towards the place where Janet's Power signature was coming from. Jeffrey then walked to find Vash hoping Vash could help him.
Hawkeye stop jumping around. I was just going to respond when you up and left. if your going to do something then stick to it. its annoying and is an inconvenience to other rps when you up and leave without letting them respond to what your doing.))
Vixen wiped her eyes and looked up, watching Derek run around. "What am I going to do Dosu?"
Ricardo walked through the outdoors of the school, viewing it's scenery as he was in a good mood today. He felt much more better after a last night encounter. Now he awaits the future.....But that is something he might not want if he realized what was ahead. Ricardo turns into the back of the campus, only to find many more benches, trees, courtyards, monuments, and so much more. He sat on an empty bench, in front of a pond with living creatures upon it. He pulled out cards and started throwing them into the pond, watching them float as they land on the oceanfront. He had so much in mind of his first day in this school and now it was time to continue. But then Ricardo just could not help but notice a very odd reflection on the pond as he looks into it. But then, he looked into the reflection as if he was looking into the mirror. IT was Donny's reflection.
Ricardo turns around swipes his card across the air, hitting no presence. He got up, looking around for Donny. He had the bit of his cards left to slash the man and try to slaughter him them. He knew that reading Donny's mind would be useless as he as well possessed the same telepathy and mind control as Ricardo but Donny had a more unique one in where he can keep any from doing so. His mind was a living thing THAT WAS AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE.
Donny then appears behind Ricardo and shoves him to the ground, as Ricardo gets back up getting into a fighting stance. He was ready to rip this man's head off physically right at this moment. But of course, Donny laughs at Ricardo, mocking him as he does to others in general.
Donny: Ricardo!......Funny that we meet again here in school together....How ironic indeed.
Ricardo: You know, you have a yen in tormenting me....But it is not working my friend.
Donny: Meh, I can be an *******. But I have made it further than you have. And come on, you are not so far away from me in experience Ricardo. I know you are more than capable in making it big. How about an alignment together and we can surely take over much more easier.
Ricardo: NO! no. You promulgated to the entire nation of who I am and what I am capable of. How will that help me?
Donny: Simple. It is an advantage in showing the world the huge possibilities beyond the chimerical imaginations of the public and big brother as well as the government. I am behind the government as I have corrupted it throughout many states and few nations. I have many communications and connections to back me up. Understand that I am willing to offer you the control. Remember......If I die......You die......
Ricardo: No....I will continue to deny your offer. Until then I will figure out how to take you down.....you cynical ****er!
Donny: Now now Ricardo. I am only trying to help. Unless if you are thinking I am trying to manipulate you into something. My death is your ass alright so don't think I will have you dead. I cannot afford to have you dead either. Just remember the day we have become soul mates.......literally.
Ricardo had enough of this man alright. He draws a card and swiped the sword right at Donny's face. The card was sliced into Donny's head. The first touch did no affect but the second touch which implanted his skull caused him to hold his head and wobble a bit as Ricardo runs at Donny and spears him into the card filled pond. Ricardo raises his fist into the air, ready to knock some sense into the man, but Donny looks at the fist and smiled.
Donny: Come on tough guy.....do it.......
Ricardo gets up off Donny and spits in his face in whereas Donny closes his eyes from the spit entering his eyelids. He laughed as Ricardo shook his head in anger and walked away. Donny lays in the pond and closes his eyes with a smirk in his face.
