Forced To Rebuild (open)

[Guest]

Darkamaru sat in his office, focused entirely on the metal he was working with. He was no longer wearing his glove, so anyone who entered could see that he was a homunculus. Hopefully, no one would enter. Not Takegami, at least. Al, Yuan, Revel, Violet...Those were the people who he could trust to come in. Anyways, he was forging a new automail arm. He had finished the base of it already, and was just now applying his protective measures such as a protective armored coating or his atest Shock Shell Plates. They would be 100% pressure resistant, so Takegami could do nothing to him. He would be ready.

[Guest]

He had finally finished putting final touches on it, including welding a silver " II " sign on the top left, symbolizing that this was the second model. He attached his bazooka to it and placed his cloak back on.

[Guest]

Takegami walked through the snowy wasteland alone, his long, black cloak like jacket protecting him from the cold. His face was hidden thanks to the hood, and all that could be seen were his crimson red eyes. He carried his guns strapped in their usuall spot, and his sword was on his back, diagonally.

"Darkamaru..."

[Guest]

Darkamaru smiled, oblivious to who this was. "You interested in some automail, sir? I do custom jobs and specialize in weaponry automail. weapon's free if you buy an arm or leg." He finally had a customer! Even if it was really Takegami, he didn't know...

[Guest]

The figure looked around the shop, analyzing the entire area. Takegami's voice was... diffrent now. He spoke in a tone that carried a hint of insanity and evilness within it, and his crimson eyes were filled with contempt.

"I want an arm, but it will be hard for you to make. Can i count on you to make it for me?"

[Guest]

He nodded, oblivious to who the man was. "You want armor or a replacement? Armor is less painful but breaks easier, and replacements involve amputation and are more durable." He walked to the back of his shop and came back with tools and parts.

[Guest]

Takegami simply pulled a metal arm out of his cloak. it was golden and glistened in the light, and had a design written on the hand that read, 'Bladed Rose' in japanese characters. The man's cold, calculating, eyes locked onto Dark and he sighed lightly.

"Install blades that can come out of this arm in diffrent angles,. I'll pay you well if you pull it off."

[Guest]

He nodded, placing his parts back. He went into a closet and came back with a case including several blades. He took the arm and using his shadow, fused the metal to the arm at several strange angles, making the arm a deadly and unpredictable weapon. He smiled and handed it back to him. "If you have any Orgold, I'll take that as payment, if you like the blades."

(I hope you don't intend to fight Darky with the blades...You could get hurt. xD)

[Guest]

Takegami slapped the money down, along with twelve strips of bacon, down on the counter, and grabbed his arm. He put it over his arm, and tested it out on a dummy in the corner. He sighed slightly when he was threw with it, and pulled his hood off revealing his face.

"You did a fine job, Darkamaru."

[Guest]

Darkamaru collected the money and then looked mildly surprised at Takegami being his customer. "Hmm, well thanks... I guess..."

[Guest]

Takegami then smashed a punch into the dummy, and within seconds of the touch, it turned to flames. Darkamaru had created the ultimate weapon for Takegami, and didn't even know it. He sighed, he could have done it himself, but why do that when he can just have someone else do it? He looked over at Darkamaru with a crazed smile on his face.

"Do you have anymore dummies?"

[Guest]

He smirked. "Yea, but I'd rather keep them unharmed...I have to have some means of keeping in shape and testing my work... But if you really need one, I can probably do something." He walked outside and made several wooden dummies grow from the ground.

[Guest]

Takegami walked out, and removed his cloak revealing metallic arms and legs. He smirked and kicked one dummy causing it to turn into dust. Then he punched another one, causing it to explode into thousands of small pieces. Then, with the last one, he brought his foot into the air, and when he brought it do on the wood, it simply caught on fire, turning to nonthing but ash.

"Perfect."

[Guest]

Darkamaru nodded, staring at his legs and arms. "Those automail? Or that creepy metal cuts thing you got..."

[Guest]

Takegami smirked and simply punched a tree he made come out of the ground. When he punched the tree, it froze and shattered after he kicked it.

"It's a special fusion, it's automail and my metallic cuts thingy, sorry i just had to mock you on that one, mixed together. Making your little shadows useless against them. So don't get any ideas. I cancelled out your shadow ability you used on this arm, so now i'm clear for anything."

[Guest]

"Well, if you canceled it out, you totaled the automail. Look." Smirking, Darkamaru threw a tiny chunk of ice at the arm and the blades fell off. "My shadows aren't sabotage. I use them to fuse my automail to flesh or other automail. I suppose I could use bolts and screws but then it would be weaker." He grinned, seeing as Takegami would have to rely on him for the automail. Not to mention, he knew how to shatter it once they got to fighting again.

[Guest]

Takegami simply smirked when he grabbed the blades, and suddenly, they were absorbed into the metal arm. Darkamaru didn't know, that once Takegami fused the automail arm with his flesh, it became a whole new type of weapon. Dark thought he knew everything about it, but now he knew nonthing.

"Oh really now?"

[Guest]

Darkamaru scowled. "No... But still, You totaled my perfect automail. Now it isn't mine, so I can't fix it for you if it breaks." He smirked, obviously loving his last statement that dripped with sarcasm.

[Guest]

Takegami simply rolled his eyes in amusement. He kicked the ground with his foot, causing a bench made of earth to arise. He sat down, and looked over at Dark with a serious look on his face.

"Why won't you join me, Darkamaru?"

[Guest]

Darkamaru shrugged and sat down too. "Truth is, I got nothing against you. I would probably join you too if it weren't for Mr. Mood Swing, Reita. But, since you are working with him, it's set in stone almost that we are enemies. Kind of stupid, since we actually get along pretty well, but it is how things are..."

[Guest]

Takegami nods his head slowly, wondering if the child knows that Reita is finally dead. Sighing he looked up at the sky, and he smiled.

"Even if Reita is dead, he's entrusted me to carry out his dream of bringing peace to the world, and i'll see to it that his dream turns into reality. Even if that means you must die too, Pride. I'm sorry, but that's life for you."

[Guest]

Darkamaru's eyes widened in confusion and shock. "Reita is... dead? Since when?" His mind was buzzing with questions now... If Reita truly was dead... Then that meant that he had won...Unless Takegami would do as Reita had done...

[Guest]

Takegami's eyes widened in curiosity. He figured that Darkamaru of all people would definately know for sure that Reita had died long ago. Takegami blinked a few times, still surprised, and started counting on his fingers.

"I'd say it's been a year now..."

[Guest]

Darkamaru was still a bit surprised but managed to calm down. "A year, huh? I wonder why I didn't notice... Kind of obvious really..." He thought for about 5 minutes before speaking again. "So, if he is dead, will you be using his methods of 'Peace' ?"

[Guest]

Takegami raised an eyebrow, not understanding the question fully.

"What do you mean 'methods' of 'peace'?"
