An Unexpected Meeting

[DarkHeart]

BLS nodded, despite being a black lantern he did not know of the whole history. He paid no attention to it though, it was not his problem, and D.H's description was entertaining instead of thought-provoking. BLS shrugged to Gi and responded "Nah. I don't feel entirely hungry thanks though"
XXXX

"I do not eat either but thank you for the offer" DarkHeart responded calmly before turning to see Facilier pop into the kitchen now. DarkHeart couldn't help but frown uncomfortably at his precence but spoke of nothing and instead stood by mechakara.
XXXX

"Well thanks Gi. I do kinda feel hungry so I guess I'll have the leftovers we have" Facilier responded in a friendly tone. Facilier took a bowl and helped himself to the soup and commenced eating it. He turned to Gi and grinned "D.H's right, you can cook. Really nice stuff"

[Mechakara]

Gi nodded eating soup. She smiled as D.H. and Facilier complimented her.

"Well thank you. I'm used to cooking for a big group. My friends and I lived on an island so we usually took turns cooking. But somehow I ended up cooking a lot more and I liked it." said Gi.

XXXX

"Well I'm glad you're on our side. Critic and those other fools don't deserve food as good as this." said D.H, complimenting her.

XXXX

Mechakara watched them talk turning to the others.

"Well I think I'm going to head in the backyard to train. It was nice meeting you D.H." said Mechakara.

He walked out the door into the backyard to start training.

[Black Lantern Spoony]

"I agree with D.H, you really do make good food Gi, those heroes don't know what they're missing" Facilier responded in agreement, eating some more of the soup, and honestly really enjoying it
XXX

"Wait up Mechakara. I could use some training myself. Catch you later D.H" BLS responded, not really hungry nor really sure if the conversation was going to go on smoothly. He walked out the kitchen and followed Mechakara outside.
XXXX

DarkHeart on one hand felt like going away as well, but also felt like staying. She then noticed Ronno was sitting next to her and she smirked to the young deer before turning to Facilier calmly but with a vague sense of suspicion. Hopefully D.H would not listen to the witch doctor.

[Mechakara]

Mechakara smiled as BLS joined him as began energy blasts at targets Insano had set up the night before. He just imagined it was Linkara or one of his friends and it helped him aim every time.

XXXX

Gi nodded as BLS and Mechakara went outside to train.

"Perhaps I should do that too. My ring gives me the power over water but unless it's nearby the ring is useless to me. But I think I'll finish this first." said Gi.

XXXX

D.H. turned to her.

"You control power of water? Lakes, streams, even the rain if it's nearby? That is an impressive ring. Where'd you get it?" asked D.H.

XXXX

"Gaia gave the rings to me and my friends each with a power. Earth, fire, wind, water, and telepathy. Well it was called heart but his power was basically telepathy. The other three element rings bare back in my universe. But Ma-ti's on the Critic's side and I'm sure he has his ring with him. He left us to get caught and I will not let him get away with that." said Gi, frowning.

XXXX

"Gee if you want stronger power over water all you need do is ask. There's enough sorcerers here we could easily increase your power over water or give you even greater powers." said D.H.

[Lord Vyce]

Lord Vyce was walking around the woods. It was a similar place to his excile but it had tons of houses and people, so he assumed it was the winter. It was a long time since he has seen the earth he combated Linkara in. Lord Vyce looked and then saw Mechakara fighting or combating with a black lantern man. Undernieth the helmet, Vyce smiled, his old ally was here as well, this could lead to great chances of linkara's demise even more. He had to be gentle with his appearance though, for he was assuming they thought of him as dead. Lord Vyce walked to the black lantern and mechakara, with a attitude of a lord obviously.

Lord Vyce crossed his arms and responded "You've been doing well since I saw you last Mechakara. It's been a long time. It is admittedly pleasing to see you live"
XXXX

Meanwhile, Kaa slithered onto the front porch, and peeked in the window seeing DarkHeart, D.H, Gi and Facilier along with Ronno and Thrax. Kaa smirked, maybe this would be his chance to do something other than catch birds for lunch. Kaa slithered to the door again and knocked. He also hissed out "Hello? Isssss anyone there? Issss it possible that I can come in?"
XXXX

Facilier heard the knocking on the door and replied "Hey. Someone else is here. Maybe we should let him or her in?"

[Mechakara]

Mechakara turned seeing Lord Vyce and frowned.

"You! You were banished and yet you returned to impersonate me. You let them think I was back. You stole an inferior body and tried to reclaim your ship. You should have known Linkara would have installed safeguards." said Mechakara.

He didn't care much about Vyce. He'd treated him more like on of his servants than an ally and Vyce had rejected any plans he'd come up with only for his plans to fail. He had an army now and new masters. He didn't need Vyce's help in crushing Linkara at all.

"What brings you here? Still searching for that dead Entity? Because whether you believe it or not Linkara actually killed it. He convinced the being to kill itself. Not a very smart being. If I had that kind of power I wouldn't destroy myself. I'd conquer the entire world." said Mechakara.

XXXX

D.H. turned and nodded opening the door as a snake stood at the door.

"A snake is at the door. Please come in. Have you come to join us?" asked D.H.

[Lord Vyce]

Lord Vyce was admittedly amused of how Mechakara was not happy to see him. All the more reason to work his bribing chops. He crossed his arms "The entity does not matter since you claim it is gone. Also, the only reason I let them think I was you because that champion was in need to be terminated. I did not want them to think I was you at first but since Linkara made the assumption... I let the fate of hand present itself" He let out a dark chuckle and responded again "I come for the same goal you do. You forget that we have many goals and ideas in common Mechakara. You underestimate the present chance of alliance. Or at least you forgot that you and I never left on bad terms"

BLS sneered, somewhat protective of his friend, if anyone was going to mock Mechakara it would be him and it would be out of fun. BLS sneered "You came for Linkara. Well tough shit, Mechakara can handle himself"
XXX

Kaa smirked to D.H and slithered into the house. He went over to Gi then back to D.H "Hello man-cubs and good sir. I am Kaa and I wissssh to join your army. Are you available for a hynotist sssnake?"

[Dr. Insuedo]

]Mechakara smirked shaking his head.

"Linksano, Judas Liz, and I were fools to side with you. And Linksano turned out to be a traitor working for Linkara the whole time. Not to mention your lost your ship to Linkara. You've made him more powerful than he was before! Because of that, he got a ship and a new scientific adviser. You're helping him more than hurting him. The children in the army would be more effective than you." said Mechakara, glaring at him.

XXXX

D.H. smiled as Kaa joined them.

"Sure. There's always room for members. And you can hypnotize? How intriguing. I didn't know snakes had that power." said D.H.

XXXX

The front door flings open as Dr. Insuedo walks in smiling as he joins them. He closes it and finds the group at the kitchen.

"Hello. I'm Dr. Insuedo. I've come to join your army as your chief scientist." said Dr. Insuedo.

XXXX

"We've already got a chief scientist and another scientist obsessed with spiders. But you're welcome to join us anyway." said D.H.

[Black Lantern Spoony]

DarkHeart observed Dr. Insuedo and Kaa with a look of observation. She responded "Yes. D.H is accurate. You would be definitely needed but Dr. Insano is our head scientist at this moment" DarkHeart then turned to Kaa "Can you really hynotise?"

"If you want a example. I'll need a volunteer" Kaa smirked as he slithered around the girl. He thought she would be a good sense of proof but two things stood in his way. One, she could've been a magical human and two he didn't want to force anyone, especially since he just arrived.
XXXX

Lord Vyce shook his head back, not willing to give up so easily. He let out a small snarl at Mechakara's rather intense show of evidence of his past failures. He responded "Linksano's treachery shall be properly dealt with. Whether you feel me as useful or not I can always proof myself. Quite frankly, I have yet to avenge myself and I shall. My mistakes were out of clumsyness I shall admit but I have learned my lessons and have grown stronger than before"

"Proof it then. If you can defeat or kiddnap a hero the next battle. I'll be the first to respect you fully as a lord. Until then, I'm with Mechakara here" BLS snapped, very unsure of the lord's calm attitude

[Mechakara]

Gi shook her head and frowned.

"Sorry I'm not going to be your guinea pig. I've had enough people messing with my brain to last me a lifetime. But a hypnotist could be useful for our side." said Gi.

XXXX

Dr. Insuedo frowned realizing he couldn't be the chief scientist and that there were two already here. But at least he could help them out. He turned as Kaa mentioned he could hypnotize people.

"Fascinating. A snake that can hypnotize people. Well, you can hypnotize me if you like. Just for a few minutes, of course, to see if you can really do it." said Dr. Insuedo.

XXXX

D.H. smiled as Insuedo volunteered. Now they could see if the snake really could hypnotize.

"Go ahead. Show us what you can do Kaa." said D.H.

XXXX

Mechakara shook his head.

"You tried to reclaim your ship and were cast off into space. The only thing I'm impressed about you is you got your original body back. But Linkara already beat you once and now that he's even stronger with an army to back him up the probability of your success is very very low." said Mechakara.

He heard Black Lantern Spoony and shook his head.

"Any moron can kidnap a hero. Facilier and I took Patch fairly easily. Although Facilier did injure Nostalgia Chick and Myotismon froze Morpheus. But they have both proven themselves. No I offer you a far greater challenge than that. Kidnap one of Linkara's closest allies Linksano, Harvey, Iheart, whoever. That will show me you're worth being in our army and hurt Linkara at the same time. Although if this were my army I'd send you packing right now. But since it isn't you're welcome to stay." said Mechakara.

He stormed back inside no longer in the mood for training not wanting to be near Vyce at all right now and do something he'd regret like attacking him. Since they were allies for now.

[Black Lantern Spoony]

Kaa frowned to Gi but nodded his head "I understand. Sssounds fine to me" He then grinned widely as Insuedo himself went over and volunteered to be a example. Quickly, Kaa went over to the scientist and responded "I asssssure you. You won't feel a thing. Thank you for volunteering" Kaa then smirked as he saw the scientist wear goggles, shouldn't be any problem at all, he's handled some men with glasses so goggles shouldn't of been a problem. He then made his hynosis powers work and responded to insuedo in a soothing manner "Just simply look into my eyes. You can trussst me"
XXXX

DarkHeart sneered when kaa slithered to her and asked for a volunteer "I am no one's guiena pig. I'll pass" She then widened her eyes as Insuedo volunteered and that Kaa's eyes turned colored when he stared into insuedo's eyes. Kaa was indeed a strange snake. She then turned to see Mechakara come back and she followed him and responded "Mechakara! You need to see this! We have a hypnotist!"
XXX

Facilier said nothing and did not volunteer. He smirked but inwardly he grimanced. A hynotist was rather a troubling thing for the magician. In more ways than one. He then noticed Mechakara come right back but pass them and leave to a specific room. Facilier smirked as the robot left, clearly that meant someone or something upset him, which was a advantage
XXX

Black Lantern Spoony smirked to Mechakara as he objected and instead dared Vyce to do something more challenging. BLS responded to Mechakara "You are right. A hero is simply a man with a typical preachy moral. Easy to speak, easy to catch. Linkara's allies are incredibly important to him. Yes, kidnap a ally, like Harvey or Linksano, that sounds fun to see" BLS then frowned in slight sympathy as Mechakara went off. BLS sneered to Vyce and responded "What brings you here besides Linkara.. Umm. Hmm, apparently in his anger mechakara forgot to mention your name"

"Very well. Your challenge has been accepted. It should be interesting for me. I will make sure whoever is first on my sights be taken" Vyce replied, feeling rather interested in mechakara's challenge. Not only would it proof his worth but it would give him a chance to dig into who linkara cared about, which would cause more pain and suffering for the champion. If Vyce had his face shown, it would show him smirking as Mechakara wandered off angerily, like a teenager who didn't get to go to a concert with his friends. He then turned to BLS and responded darkly and arrogantly "Lord Vyce. Mechakara clearly can hold a rather unimportant grudge"

[Mechakara]

Gi nodded and watched as Insuedo volunteered. As long as she wasn't being hypnotized she didn't care. And they did need to see if the snake could do it.

XXXX

Dr. Insuedo nodded taking off his goggles putting them over his head so he could look closely into Kaa's eyes as they began to swirl around and change colors as he just stood then frozen in Kaa's trance.

XXXX

Mechakara turned to see Kaa was hypnotizing a scientist. He was impressed at the snake's powers.

"How powerful is this hypnotism? I mean can someone break out if their will is strong enough? Or if you break you concenration?" asked Mechakara.

While it looked useful he wanted to be aware of any weaknesses or limitations Kaa's hypnosis had.

XXX

D.H. watched also impressed with the hypnosis.

"Well that is very impressive." said D.H.

He heard Mechakara's comments and nodded.

"Yes. He's right. We need to know if there's a flaw in your power. Some way they could break free of it." said D.H.

[Dr. Facilier]

Kaa took a few moments to keep Insuedo into his stare, so to properly hynotise him. After a while, though he stopped and looked to the others and responded with a smirk, particularly answering Mechakara "Excellient question. The hynosis I have can ssstay asss long asss I need it to. All I have to do isss stare and they'll stay hynotised until I stare them back into reality. However, you are correct. I have limitations"

He looked to DarkHeart, sensing she was not really a human and replied "I cannot hynotise robots or machinery. I can only control organic life. With the help of someone magical though, perhaps that can be a posssssssiblity"
XXX

"My god. His eyes!" DarkHeart responded darkly as she looked to see Insuedo's real eyes the exact same color Kaa's were. She turned to Kaa and listened to the snake explain his limitations or loopholes to his powers. She couldn't help but smile, this was perfect, a hynotist of organic life was brilliant. She walked over to Gi, honestly amazed with Kaa and responded to D.H and Gi willing to get any feedback "That's... incredible. I have never seen something like that before"
XXXX

"You never will my dear" Kaa responded to DarkHeart, amused with her shock. He then noticed Dr. Insuedo and smirked again "So be honest. What do you think? I'll ssssnap him out of it soon enough don't worry"
XXXX

"Nice. Sounds like my type of thing I can get into" Dr. Facilier commented softly, only for D.H particularly to hear

[Mechakara]

Insuedo stood there mesmerized by Kaa's hypnosis not speaking or moving.

XXXX

"Hmm. So we can't control Starscream. But your power could help us get some more captives since we've lost our last ones." said Mechakara.

XXXX

"Yes. Your power certainly is very useful." said D.H.

He smiled at Facilier hearing his comment and nodded in agreement. He turned hearing Mechakara and smirked.

"Hypnotizing our enemies into being captives is perfect. If Kaa hypnotizes them then we can grab captives easily." Said D.H.

[Black Lantern Spoony]

"Cccccertainly. I'm more than willing to get most of the organic heroes. Ssssounds like fun. I'm Kaa by the way" Kaa responded to Mechakara, slithering to him as if he was preying on the robot but it simply was him observing. Kaa then turned to Insuedo and responded with a tiny smirk "Now I think it'sss time I woke him up" He slithered right back to Insuedo and made the hynosis spell stop, which would of course snap Insuedo out of it.
XXXX

DarkHeart nodded "Captives can be easy to grab when they have no will of their own. Kaa, you have shown your skills and I believe you are a good asset to us" DarkHeart was admittedly skeptical but now that kaa proved himself, she stood herself corrected. Facilier smirked to D.H and nodded at what the boy said, like DarkHeart he was skeptical but now was interested. BLS meanwhile was still discussing matters with Lord Vyce and about the war in general outside
