I haven't seen Jennifer in a while, she looked... different, but I knew exactly why she looked so. I don't know why, but ever since I saw Jennifer, I felt an ominous presence lurking around her, and it was concentrated in her heart. I couldn't tell exactly what it was, but I did know it was an insane power buff, maybe 20 or so times from her previous base power, which is alot, a whole ton some.
Current Stats For Johnny:
Base Power : 9,000 points
Soul Emifer: 12,000 points
Mind Emifer: 13,000 points
I could still tell that I was stronger than her, regardless of the boost she had, but still, I couldn't exactly tell her power. Her base must have been higher than mine, but my SE and ME is stronger then hers, by atleast twofold, maybe less, but I knew she wasn't going full strength, and neither am I. She started off with a charge with Yartsdra, but from her eyes, I could tell. "You aren't thinking, your mind is blank, why?" and she smiled.
"I put aside the use of my brain. I am moving by nothing except instinct, my brain is useless. Even if you chop my head off, I'll still be coming at you, I just wouldn't be able to feel pain, nor have any of my senses, but I could still kill you." and I could tell she wasn't joking, but something was wrong.
Her eyes, they were blank, as if she was mind controlled. Everything else of her seemed normal, but her eyes made her seem controlled, not real, just an illusion. I wanted to make sure, so I tried attacking her, but to my surprise, it was the real one. "Oh, I get it now, everything now. That was a wrong move, Jennifer." and she seemed confused, but then she realized it, and bursted with anger. "Really? You think that was my mistake? No, it wasn't that is where you are wrong, it was my ascension, my transformation!" and I sighed, and taunted her into continuing this fight.
Her anger made her much faster, I couldn't keep up, but Yagrik was there to save me, and with the extra buff of my Mind Emifer, I managed to shield myself, but Yagrik's shield was totally shattered. "Only a little bit more force, and you are gone." and with that she started laughing, which confused me a little bit, but then I realized.
She was getting stronger by the moment. She would lose more of her humanity for the sake of strength, which will turn her into a monster, and when she fully transforms, there is nothing that can be done, but just watch her at that state, slowly turning into a full fledged monster, with nothing else on her mind, except destruction. "Listen to me, Jennifer. I can still save you, before it's to late. The potion Trinity gave you isn't meant to make you stronger, that is just a side effect! She want's to test a new potion that she had to make an army, an army that can not be destroyed, the Most Powerful Army in the world! If you are to fail right now, it may hinder her plan, and if we manage to defend the Kurai Kyu, than we can stop this madness! Join me!" I said, reaching my hand to her, but she looked at me, and started laughing, hysterically.
"I don't care about that, I just want power, if you can manage more power for me, much more than this, than I might join you, but I have my own set of rules!" she said, lunging towards me. I dodged her attack, and jabbed her on a pressure point, and she backed away, staggering. I then created a makeshift Yartsdra, around the normal power of her Yartsdra, and stabbed her. She then staggered backwards, and put her hand on her torso, just to realize that her hand was filled with blood. Rather than reacting like a normal person, she started laughing, ignoring the pain.
"Thank you! Thank you so much! I haven't felt this much pain in quite a while, so I must thank you! Well, it's my turn now I guess. Let us see who's Yartsdra is better, shall we?" and I nodded, and we both lunged towards eachother. I had the upper, because of Yagrik, but when I tried to pierce Jennifer, she dodged it, and managed to get a shot on my back. I felt a sharp jolt of pain, and couldn't help myself from screaming.
"Yes! That's great! Go, scream more. SCREAM MORE!!" and then she went charging, moving her weapon extremely quickly, jabbing me at many spots. I couldn't win, I told myself. The only way I could win against a monster like her is by curing her. I had to create the concoction, however. So I sent Mikasa a message, while trying to dodge her attacks. Yo, you finished with your battle yet?
No, not yet, you need help?
... Nope, I don't need help...
and i concentrated back at the fight that was happening. I managed to dodge a few attacks, but every 10 or so, her speed increased, and that small jump would get me, every single time. I then decided, it was time to put in some of my training into action. While she was about to charge at me, I closed my eyes. I then emptied my head, becoming thoughtless, and with a single burst, I opened my eyes with such intensity, she fell down to her knees. "Wh..what is this... force? I... can't... move!" she said, trying to struggle. I then smiled, and chuckled.
"Well, let us just say, I learned this little trick, from a manga I read." and I started laughing, I couldn't hold it back anymore. She continued struggling, but couldn't move, not until I closed my eyes again. I couldn't hold this position for more than a minute, but a minute would be plenty. While looking towards her, I transformed Yagrik into a small set of chemistry equipment, and started making the potion.

Still trying to be freed, she looked at me, and asked what I was going to do. "I'm just going to brew you a simple potion to cure you from your curse, the Mind-Eating Potion." and she struggled more vigorously. "No! No! I don't want to lose this great power!" and then her skirt flew upwards, just enough for me to lose my concentration, and she broke free. "Now, what were you going to do to me?" and with that, she knocked my equipment to one side, but that was just what I wanted, because , although it seemed as though the skirt flying was the reason she broke free, it was because I blinked.
While she knocked it, she was already moving in such a position no matter how fast she would be, she couldn't dodge this attack. I then pierced her arm with a needle, sending the antidote into her bloodstream. She seemed to actually be in pain, "Gahh! The strength... it's fading!" she tried to punch me, but when it hit me, I couldn't feel a thing. It actually worked. After that, she fell down, on one knee, asking for me to return her power to her, but I couldn't do that at this point, it was just time. "Well, it depends now. Either the antidote is negated, and you get your power back, or the antidote overwhelms the curse, and you would be back to your normal self, as if you never got the curse." she seemed more angry that she would lose her power.
"Da..Damn You!" and she fell unconscious due to shock. I then grabbed her unconscious body, and brought it to the medical bay. I then told Nium that a general of the Reaper's are in the medical bay, and that she is currently being healed, hopefully the antidote was to fix her. Nium first seemed surprised that I actually brought in a general, but he understood the situation. "Before anything, I'll confirm with Skiean, alright? Can you go and help outside with the fight? Wait... just explain to me this... coding, and when do I activate this?" and I told him.
"This is the main function, I made it seem extremely confusing for a reason, and the other one, right after you notice Mikasa get shot in the chest by me, that would be our signal, okay?" and he accepted, but I supposed he would ponder over both things. The coding itself translated says, "Intiate Death Sequence" , which would be normally confusing, but he has complete trust in me, something in which this can't be accompolished if someone half-trusts you. Just to make sure, I then used another tactic Mikasa told me, and I sent him a copy of neural information, ie some of my memory. He then looked at me, and said, "Alright, I got it, great plan. I won't tell anyone else, don't worry." and with that I left.
When I then left, I looked to my side, and saw Mikasa running after me. "We got, a bit of a problem..." she then pointed outside, and I noticed it. Nium then rushed out of the control room, and screeched, "IT WAS ALL A PLOY! THE ACTUAL ENEMY IS COMING RIGHT NOW!!" and I told him to calm down. "Don't worry, this is what I expected, although Trinity thinks she is a step ahead of me, I'm two steps ahead of her, but then she would stomp over me, so I have to walk up slowly, so it is a more chase-like thing. The problem is, this only has one shot, else Trinity will then understand everything else, as I said, when it comes to intellegence, we are almost equal." I then told the news to Skiean, and she seemed displeased. "Well, now we have a bigger problem. THey already infiltrated us, so what are we going to do?"
and Nium told her a bit of my plan. "Well, let's just say, we have a plan, but the backfire would be immense, extremely immense." and she stared at me for a while. "Well, as long as Kurai Kyu is safe, I'm fine with it, he must have a deeper plan than simply creating a massive army." I then had a major headache, so I then went into my room, and layed down on the bed, and I heard it again.
Hello, Young One. How are you feeling?
"Nothing much, but do you really have to create such a headache?"
That is the only way I could contact you, you didn't react to my other attempts.
I then remembered about the weird itching I felt behind my ear, and the fact that my hand went numb
"Why are you here, anyways?"
As I told you, the 800th Kiji. It is when my power is at its peak, and that is an important day. Listen to me, lost lamb.
"Okay.." and I could swear someone was peeping there ear and hearing everything I said.
You must train in the next 5 years, become stronger, by atleast fivefold, and then you will have a minute chance surviving the chaos of Kiji. It is a big problem, and believe me, atleast half of the population in every dimension, will be gone. To become stronger, understand the other dimensions, those that aren't explored yet.
I couldn't comprehend most of what he was saying, but I could tell it was something very important. "You are still speaking Riddle, what do I do?"
That is for you... my lost lamb, to find out.
and with that, my headache vanished, and I felt normal. I then decided to on the light, and when I woke up, I noticed Juni was on the bed. "Ehhh?! What are you doing here? Did Hazen or Hui find you?" but she didn't reply, she was fast asleep. She coughed a bit , and said, "My room was crowded, so I decided to sleep here... ... anyways, why are you here? And what was that voice?" and I realized he didn't try and keep it to my mind. Damn you, I said to myself, but then looked at Juni, and said, "Oh, nothing, nothing, probably something you were just thinking." and she looked at me, and pouted.
"No, I heard something, alright. I'm feeling fine already. I don't know what Skiean did, but I feel great actually. I think me and Hui should take our leave though, we will just become a hassle." and I wanted to agree with her, but it didn't feel right. "Well, I agree. I'll pack yours and Hui's things right now, and send you on an Army Bus, made by me, so that you would be safe. You'll be taking a detour, to dodge the Reapers." and when I leaned in closer, I heard the door slam. It was Hazen. He was flustered. "Wh...WHAT ARE YOU DOING JOHNNY?!" and he seemed to get the wrong impression, as usual. It took some time to explain, but he managed to understand. "Oh, alright, well, goodbye Juni," and before leaving, he kissed her, on the cheek. She then blushed, and hid in the covers. "Not infront of someone else, Hazen!" and she threw a pillow at him. He then chuckled, and left.
"Okay, your stuff along with your Bus is ... here," and I made a small bot with Yagrik to lead her. The door opened again, and this time it was Hui, with a crane on her back. "I was forced in here! I demand freedom!" and she started throwing a fit, so I dropped her. "Your leaving with your sister back to the Flugre Dimension, else you'll get sick and may die. Follow the blue bot, you'll be safe, trust me." and she trusted me, which was something that barely happened.
Before leaving, Hui walked up towards me, and said, "Thank you, Johnny, thank you so much!" and then she walked away, trailing behind Juni. I then, too, walked outside, and saw Mikasa standing outside. "You ready, Johnny?" and I nodded, smiling. "Of course!"
