Mollusc meditated in the middle of nowhere just focusing on his Ki control. Sense his fight with Kayen he had become more focused on being a better martial artist rather then a fighter. One of the ways he could do that was to become more in tune with the world around him. To become better at controlling his ki. That was afterall the sign of a great martial artist. It also allowed him to unclouded his thoughts and focus on just figuring out his next moves. Namek had been hard for him, he had been hoping for answers but they still alluded him. When he was at the peak of focus however he sensed a strong power near by. Mollusc eyes snapped open as he stopped floated and landed on his feet with a huff. Mollusc would look around trying to see who it was but he got no sight of them. He decided instead to just ask. "Hello anyone out there?" Mollusc called as calmly as possible as to not scare whoever was out there.

It'd been such a... confusing road. She had come to Namek in search of answers, in search of peace, yet found neither. She'd continually lost control still, struggled with her own both metaphorical and literal inner demons. Her body was both hers and not hers, she felt like she was just going to be ripped in two at any moment. The turmoil she was going through was unlike anything she'd ever seen, heard of, or experienced before, she searched and searched but nobody could tell her what was wrong with her. Maple was the only one who seemed to know, the only one who had ever made claim of knowing who or what she was. Saizomaru was helpful in learning how to fight sure, but that was it. He knew she had potential, everyone she ever talked too told her she had this enormous potential... But never what she was. Sensoa, An actual Demon? Nope. Nashua? Nope. Oboe? Nope. Nobody knew who or what she was, nobody knew how to teach her to control this raging beast within... Nobody could help her. Was she just delusional? Maybe there wasn't a way to control it, maybe she was simply doomed to eventually lose herself in the storm.
The thought of losing control entirely and being prisoner in her own body for all time... it terrified her. She didn't know what would happen if she lost control and nobody was around, every time she had lost control there was someone there... and every time she tried to kill them. So what was she to do? It was only getting worse as well. She was starting to remain conscious when it happened, fully aware of everything happening. She was forced to watch herself attack Oboe, a prisoner in her own body unable to stop herself. She could feel every wound she inflicted upon him, and every pained movement she was forced to make. Sure Oboe had managed to heal most of her wounds by now, but the multitude of breaks she had suffered to her chest and rib cage still hurt. How was she to cope with this? How COULD she cope with it? If she lost control entirely and wasn't stopped... Oboe was powerful but she knew she was pushing him to his limits before, and had she not fallen unconscious from her internal injuries she wasn't entirely sure he'd still be alive.
So now the question was; what should she do? Leave? Go to some random distant world to hide away for the rest of her life? Return home and hope her Mother accepted her back after being gone for two, three years? Was she even deserving of it? She didn't even take notice of those around her as she blazed through the sky, her attempt to keep her mind off of the events had simply failed it their entirety, rather than keeping them out she couldn't help but think about them and fill her mind with those thoughts. So when she finally stopped to touch down, she was surprised to find another already here when she finally looked around. "O-Oh, sorry... if I'm interrupting something I can leave..."

Mollusc finally felt the power of someone nearby. They were weaker than him but it was strong enough for him to feel. Mollusc would tilt his head looking over at Kitiana. She seemed to be a saiyan from the looks of it but he had never seen her before. He had met a lot of saiyans but never her. She apologized for interrupting him which was nice enough but he didn't really mind. It was just good to see someone else out there. "No it's fine you don't need to be sorry you can sit with me if you wish I was just meditating but I can do that all the time talking with people is a rarer occasion." Mollusc would offer her a spot to sit before he asked. "So what are you doing on Namek. Looking for guidance maybe the dragonballs or prehaps just a peaceful place to live?" Mollusc thought that asking these questions were always a great way to start a conversation. Maybe he'd find something he had in common with her from these questions.

The Namekian didn't seem to mind her presence, even offering her a place to sit next to him. It... It couldn't hurt right? Most of the time when she went berserk it was times of extreme stress, so a peaceful chat should be fine.... right? Even if she didn't hesitate externally, internally she was skeptical of even a simple talk at this point. The mere idea of going berserk weighed heavily in her mind, the fear of when she wouldn't come back... Every time she went berserk it got worse, every time she felt just a bit of her self and sanity slip away and every time her fear of falling completely grew stronger.
However, Kitiana took him up on his offer and sat in the spot offered. "In truth? Well... at this point I don't really know anymore. Originally I had come seeking guidance, maybe some answers... I hadn't even contemplated trying to find the dragon balls, hell I wouldn't even know how to find them in truth. But now I... I'm starting to wonder if all of this was a mistake." She sighed softly. In truth some might think it strange that she simply reveal everything to a total stranger, but in truth what harm could actually come from it? She could sense his strength... He was far more powerful than she was, so even if she did go berserk he could stop her... maybe even end her misery. Truth be told part of her hoped that did happen, but earnestly she was still terrified of it. She knew the power she had within her, the power of that technique. It only got more powerful each time she used it, and it grew exponentially to her own relative power as well.

She didn't decide to flee which was a good sign. She also didn't seem hostile so that was another good sign. He'd didn't have to worry about getting into a fight. Mollusc looked over at Kitiana. She was lost just like him. She had been looking for answers and guidance but she had not found any on the planet. "Yes, I can understand that feeling. It can be frustrating you came for something that you didn't find. I have the same feeling when I came to Namek. I lost my life in a battle and I thought that I would be at peace. Yet I came back to life and I didn't know why or how. So I traveled from Vegeta to Earth and to Namek. I was hoping that someone could tell me how I became a ghost and is there was any reason for it but I've found none so far." Mollusc turned to look at Kitiana. "It can be hard when you want to find the truth. I can't say I know how to make you feel better cause I don't feel better by knowing I can't find an answer. We just have to keep pushing forward untill we find one." Mollusc gave a light smile to Kitiana.

Well her story hadn't chased him off... Guess she had that going for her. But the Namekian seemed to, at least vaguely, understand her pain. His words did explain why he was somewhat transparent. She'd begun to wonder if she was going crazy, but his words explained it away at least for the time. Perhaps she was just going crazy, or maybe she could just see ghosts now or something... who was to say. He tried to offer her words of comfort, to help give her some sense of hope perhaps or something but... truth be told it didn't help. She was thankful for the Namekian Clothes Beam, it meant that despite how torn up her outfit got it'd just be repaired. But more importantly, it helped to hide her dark secret.
Her left arm raised up a bit, her head tilting downwards to stare at it. While he admitted he couldn't say he knows how to make her feel better, in truth she didn't think there was anything that anyone could say to achieve that. "Truth be told... I don't know if anyone can tell me. Planet Vegeta had no answers as to who I was or who my Father was. My Mother won't tell me anything, even Demons who live for thousands of years can't tell me anything about what I am. I'm not a Saiyan, at least... not fully. I suspect that either my Father was one, or my Mother cut off her tail to hide the fact she was one. Either way Vegeta didn't have records on either of them. My Mother kept me hidden for so long that anyone who might've known is either dead or impossible for me to find. Honestly, sometimes I feel like I shouldn't even exist."

Mollusc looked over at Kitiana seemed sure she was not going to find the answer. She was looking for her Father, however, something that in his mind that was never important. At least to him, he was a Namekian he was born from another Namekian Dragon clan who could create eggs. He supposed to non Namekians maybe that was more important. All the people she asked had given her nothing her Mother and other demons? Wait Demons! Mollusc looked on confused at Kitana but she explained that part of her blood at least was Demon. Mollusc could not see it from the appearance but guess that was blood for you. You could not tell it from just looks. The answers to her questions had been hidden for so long. Either her Mother or Father was hiding the truth from her. Mollusc rubbed his chin trying to see what he could do to help. Afterall, this maybe was a way to keep his mind off his own problems.
"That is a tough problem but no you deserve to exist. Your mother and father got together and had you. Plus you get to make your own path. Once you carve that path then I think you should decide if there was a mistake or not. Not before when you're so young." Mollusc lightly smiled at Kitiana. "As for your thoughts, I bet one of them knows but does not want to tell you. Maybe they worry it will hurt you or maybe there something they don't know themselves. I am sure one day one of them will come and tell you. If not then you can always ask and get an answer. In my mind, since it is about you, then you deserve that answer eventually even if it really does hurt to know." Mollusc cracked his neck. "Afterall it is the only way you can move on huh? To have an answer."

Mollusc tried to offer words of what should've been encouragement, but for Kitiana they weren't. While Mollusc likely meant well with his words and intentions, Kitiana took them differently. If they did know and weren't saying anything, that just exacerbated her issue with it. If they refused to tell her what was wrong with her, despite knowing that she so desperately wanted to figure out how to stop herself from hurting others, then they were just as much apart of the problem. Kitana's fist curled into a tight ball, her teeth pressing together as her lips curled back. "They'd better hope they don't know... It'd be best if they didn't. They know how desperate I am to learn how to control this... how to stop myself from hurting others. I just... I just want to go back to being normal again. I'm so sick and tired of having these random blackouts, unable to control myself... constantly living in fear that I'll kill someone. Each time I get closer and closer to that, each time I just grow farther and farther away from sanity. Its... Its like there's someone else inside me, fighting for control and each time they grow just a little bit closer to getting that control. I swear..."
Kitiana paused, her teeth grinding against themselves as her aura flared to life. "I swear if they know how to stop this... If they know how to control this and refuse to tell me I'll... I'll..." Her breathing hastened, getting heavier with breath she took "I swear I'll kill them all..."

Mollusc looked at Kitiana as she seemed to be pretty mad. Guess he had not been doing the best job to try to calm her. Mollusc didn't even flash a blink as she spoke. How she claimed they better hope they didn't. Mollusc could understand why as she spoke. She had lived her life without control and in fear. If someone knew how to help him and held it back he would pretty angry too. He could imagine if someone could explain why he came back as a ghost but just laughed or watched without concern. Mollusc own left fist clenched. Still, he kept his eyes on Kitania as her aura snapped to life. He wondered if that was what she meant losing control. That maybe there was some other being just lurking beneath the surface. Yet in his own mind that was just her. Her ki didn't seem to change she was still herself.
"Ok." Mollusc blinked. "Kill them all if they are hiding it from you." Mollusc cracked his neck. "You don't want to be a Monster? We can only be Monsters based on own perception. I use to think I knew what evil was but people I was close too disagreed." He was referring to arguments of Kayen vileness he had with Ramen. "You can decide to tread on the path of goodness and be blinded to evil or walk in darkness and lose the light. That what they may tell you but maybe the answer in the middle. Instead of trying to push agiasnt your darkness you need to embrace it. Forge it into a weapon you can wield without the blindness of good or evil. Just what you believe to be right and wrong." Mollusc sighed he was unsure if that was good advice but he supposed that was how he lived and died.

What was light without darkness? Was there even any 'light' in her? Her own tumultuous mind was clouded all the time, never any sunlight even when the sea of discord was calm. As far as she could tell, there was no light at the end of her tunnel... Just perpetual darkness. Perhaps Mollusc was right, perhaps she just needed to embrace it and let it win... perhaps it was who she truly was meant to be. Who defined right and wrong? Who defined what was Good and what was Evil? In truth Mollusc made the most sense to her, at least right now. Who was to say if his words were the correct ones. They weren't the ones she wanted to hear, but maybe that's why they sounded so real to her. Mollusc was the first one to not try to 'find the problem' but simply give her a solution. It was the first solution that made sense. From all of her interactions, all of her fights... Out of everything she'd gone through... This was the first time anything resonated with her.
"Yeah... maybe you're right..." Kitiana grinned, her muscles flexing slowly as her power level began to rise steadily "All this time... I've been trying to control it..." She gave a bit of an admittedly rather sinister chuckle "I've been fighting against it, not just allowing it to exist. What's the worst that could happen anyway? If I embrace it, let it happen... it'll either consume me or free me. Either way I don't have to go on in fear anymore." She began to let out a soft laughter, looking down at her left arm as her hand slowly opened. The markings that covered her torso and arm began to glow underneath her outfit, her grin widening to stretch across her face. "Y'know... this... this is the first time I've felt something other than fear."

"Hmm?" He'd looked at Kitiana. He could sense her power slowly rising. Guess she was trying to take her advice yet not in the way he expected. Mollusc eyed her cautiously. He would see how she was able to handle this. "You need to control it," Mollusc said calmly. "But control does not mean you can't embrace its power and become strong from it. You can't find your true path without seeing the darkness in yourself." Had he made a mistake? Mollusc sat calmly but a bad feeling was slowly creeping into him. He just had to wait and see how she tried to use that power. Mollusc sensed her power rise fourfold the new marking that covered her body gave him pause. What made him even more worried was Kitana darker voice. Mollusc stared at her and put a palm on the grass. "Your power has increased and you've changed. This is your demon power I guess. We still have a lot of work to do but its a start. Sit with me now. Now that you transformed you have to learn to balance your power" Mollusc was ready to attack if she tried to left. Unless she had control he could not let her just go running around. He had to be ready to subdue her.

Kitiana's eyes shifted between both arms now as she began to slowly levitate off of the ground, her sinister grin only widening. Her legs slowly drifting down below her, her muscles bulging outwards as she allowed the power to simply exist... No longer constrained to her mind. For the most part she ignored Mollusc, though the real question was... was it her that was ignoring him, or was it something else? "Baeig zutoccp? Qyx vzzz cz wahhms. W'zl eynou oicx cdlc izxza!" She let out a low chuckle as she began to float upwards slowly "Jdeed wic, Bpmpcsdw, xok't avzxkkk umcvh mz." Her voice sounded more like a combination of some kind of demonic creature and her own, rough undertones and a growling rumble that marked it as entirely different than before and far more sinister. This was the first time her powers had ever come out naturally, that is to say... without being forced out. Most of the time it was when she was endangered but now? No... Now they were flowing free without any restraint.
She closed her eyes slowly, the glowing underneath her clothing beginning to spread down her right arm and strange markings peaking out from her collar that held the same glow. She let out a low sigh of relief, her hair slowly changing to a dark purple, though because of it's normally black hue it was a rather subtle change. Her tail flicked left to right, up to down and all ways in-between. Kitiana had taken his advice, she had embraced her demonic power... but at what price?

Mollusc looked over and he could not understand any of the words Kitaina was saying. Guess what he was trying to do had not worked out exactly how he was expecting. Mollusc let out a sigh. "I see. This won't be as easy as I expected." Mollusc would lookup. He was worried something like this would happen. She had bad consumed by her inner darkness and there was nothing left of her before. He was quite sure he could fix this but the question was what way he'd fix such a situation. Mollusc would then float up to face her so she could not go running off. Mollusc took in a deep breath before clasping both hands together. A powerful green aura surrounded his body as his power surged to life.
The true power of his Ethereal dragon form. An aura shaped like a dragon surrounded him as he looked towards Kitiana. "I was too arrogant we will try this agian." He decided to end it quickly with his strongest attack. "Porunga.." The words caught his mouth. The old chant that he didn't have any faith in. "Help me cleanse my foe of their sin." Mollusc felt the ki surge to life with a hint of magic in the background. Maybe he still had his eye on him afterall. Mollusc fired an orange blast of ki into the air above the two of them. "HAH!" He'd swung a hand down at the ball launched down attempting to Ko Kitiana with one vicious blow.
Ethereal Dragon Powerlevel:782,250. Kp:7/7 Used Porunga Commandetment For 782,250 damage attempt to ko (Briefly) Kitana to try to bring her back to base. Kp:4/7
Porunga Commandment- Mollusc gives out a speech that Porunga has cast them out of his gaze. He Fires out a massive blast of ki which lands in the air that fires out ki blast a down at a foe though these are not powerful at all. They are just to throw the foe off as then the mass of ki drops from the sky onto a target dealing 100 percent damage.

Her reign lasted about as long as it took to start, for better or worse there wasn't much she could do to even register what Mollusc did before it was over. Most of his words beforehand hadn't actually been understandable for Kitiana, so she had just ignored it. But when she had moved to turn away her entire world went dark, her body falling onto the ground just a few feet from where she had been. Thankfully Mollusc had only used just enough power to knock her out, but even so how long she'd remain unconscious was an unknown and uncontrollable variable.

Mollusc sat down with a sigh as Kitiana hit the ground. He managed to stop her before she caused any trouble. He may have made a mistake to move so quickly in trying to help her. Yet he knew this had to be the way. They could make progress and fix this. In his mind, he should be able to help her. Mollusc rubbed his chin looking over at her. He should be able to regain all his ki before she woke back up. He had hit her with an attack that would easily knock out Kitiana. Maybe for a few hours or maybe longer. It didn't matter he was willing to wait. Hopefully, she would be in better control of herself.
