*Whatever, and whenever the case may be. Labrys is still on Earth.

She rather quickly left the site of the Momentum plant once everyone had returned, with nary a word nor a glance towards them.

A part of her says... she should leave this planet as soon as possible. She shouldn't be here, and the longer she is, the worse it'll be. But another part of her, perhaps, wants to just be able to look up at the night sky.

As a result, she can be found either in the park-- empty due to how late it is, or at the top of a building that's a few stories high, somewhere in a more deserted part of town. She somewhat sticks out like a sore thumb, thanks not only to her red hair, but also the armor she seems to be wearing.*

[tachyonparticle]

*well. I tried.*

You already know of my name.

[grimgrimwar]

So let's follow this through logically and conclude that I wasn't asking for your name.

[tachyonparticle]

I have no reason to give anything other than my name. You have all of the information that could possibly be relevant to you, to know.

[grimgrimwar]

How about "where did you come from" and "how the hell did you punch through that barrier and that demon like they were made of paper".

'Cause now that those demons aren't stinking things up anymore, I'm noticing y'don't smell entirely like a Duel Spirit or a human.

[tachyonparticle]

*... she has no idea how to feel about the idea of you smelling her.* ... I have no desire to tell you where I'm from. Or from that implication, what I am.

As for the second question, I live my life, as it were, defending against those demons. I have faced them numerous times. My axe, my being, and Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon, are the anti-thesis of those demons and their abilities. It is one of the few things capable of completely destroying them.

Without myself, or perhaps the power of that boy, Zexal, they would have simply reformed elsewhere, and returned again.

[grimgrimwar]

[Grunt.]

His name's Yuma.

[tachyonparticle]

... Yuma, then. I apologize, I was never formally introduced. There were many things I was unfamiliar with occurring, at the time. And once the situation had settled, he seemed more concerned with recovering.

[grimgrimwar]

Yeah. Well. I guess that's a good point.

...you use a Galaxy-Eyes too. [Captain obvious.]

[tachyonparticle]

A clear assessment, correct. I would hope that my summoning would've not gone unnoticed, since I went through the risk of bringing them out.

[grimgrimwar]

Risk?

What risk?

[tachyonparticle]

*... I'm not really keen on all this talking, but making it clear the dangers that're present... might be helpful.* Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon. Their state, their existence, is chaotic. Being in a world like this for too long, would alter the very fabric around where it stands.

We should almost consider it a blessing-- due to the demons having already caused so much heavy damage to that area in such a reckless manner, Tachyon Dragon's presence did nothing to the surroundings.

[grimgrimwar]

Gee, that's what you call a silver lining, I guess. [Sigh.]

...sound like it's not really dissimilar from those demons in the first place.

[tachyonparticle]

If you wish to look at it that way, you are free to do it. Those demons, however... Are nothing but base creatures. Incapable of being reasoned with. Incapable of compassion. Incapable of comradery. They will sooner attack when the back is turned, than take any signs of mercy.

I would like to think that Tachyon Dragon is not that, but that is personal sentimentality. What I do know is that they, and myself, are capable of destroying those demons.

[grimgrimwar]

...personal sentimentality is the difference between us and things like that. [She crosses her arms.]

...so why did you fight them. We have to - they targeted our world. But I'm guessing this isn't your world.

[tachyonparticle]

This isn't. This was a personal call from... Some associates of mine. I was informed that they had invaded this world. I felt need to act.

... *she says this a bit more pained* The one, who had the guise of the woman with the lavender hair. She attacked one of my associates. Under most circumstances, they would have been dead and consumed.

[grimgrimwar]

...

...what happened to them?

[tachyonparticle]

... One of them. She... Had been cornered by that one. Those creatures are capable of making it impossible for someone to escape, if they so wish to. She was forced into a duel with them, and was defeated in an overwhelming manner.

... If it weren't for her brother managing to break through and taking them by surprise to escape, that would've been her end. Given the circumstances, she would've been no safer here than she would have been back at our home, where those demons invade constantly.

It's only after that, that they were able to contact me about this situation. *... you feel like even her using specifications like "her" and "her brother" is probably more than she's even comfortable saying. and that those... things are pretty much a daily occurrence...*

[grimgrimwar]

...

...h-how constantly is...constantly.

Are you fighting ones on the level of those two that were at the reactor...all the time?

[tachyonparticle]

*she simply nods*

Some days, they won't appear. Those are peaceful days, but rare and far apart. Most days, it's only minor ones-- weak, but still in high numbers. If they're not curbed, they will quickly over-run the area. It's likely that those demons intended on doing that with this world.

... Some days, it's ones similar to those who attacked. The only difference is, where I'm from, the demons don't need to open any doors to let others in. They just come.

*... she turns around, a hand moving up to her arm, and squeezing slightly, like she's... restraining herself.*

[grimgrimwar]

...

[Alex rubs her own arm. She looks away. A few minutes ago, she was suspicious of Labrys and now she feels like a real heel for that. The full picture is coming into place here. Labrys has been fighting these things for a long time. And her and her allies are here...what? To stop the demons from coming here as well?

Her hand clenches into a fist. She's not sure what to say.]

...I'm sorry.

[Still doesn't really do it justice.]

[tachyonparticle]

... There's nothing to apologize for. My presence here-- it wouldn't have happened if she hadn't been attacked. I have my priorities, my duty towards defending my home. There's nothing for you to feel sympathetic over. *though, even as she says that...*

... But... I suppose I wouldn't have wanted to see another world get over-run by those creatures, regardless. It's peaceful here, compared to my home. It's pure selfishness, that I'm even still here.

[grimgrimwar]

[Said quickly, before she even gets a chance to think about it:] Why don't you and your allies live here, then?

[tachyonparticle]

*... she seems pained by the question*

... I'm sorry. We can't live here. Not as we are right now.

[grimgrimwar]

....w-why not?

Lots of people have done it. I mean, that was mostly Duel Monsters, but....this planet can be really accepting of lots of different kind of people, you know.

[tachyonparticle]

*... she gives a small laugh, like the universe is playing a joke on her.*

If it were just a matter of acceptance, of simply being accepted by this world and it's people, it'd be a different story.

But... As we are right now, we can't live here. We wouldn't survive.
