>>5153270"I'm not going to get out of here on my own. I need help." you think to yourself, clenching your teeth at the growing pain in your chest. You try calming your mind, and focus enough to telepathically reach out to Meloka. But as you try focusing, the pain in your chest flares violently and sends you into another coughing fit. Blood sprays from your mouth, raining back down onto your face as you writhe in pain. Every breath is pain, each movement sending piercing pain hurting you deep into your chest. Your vision begins dimming as you struggle to breathe, the agony leaving you unable to focus enough to reach out telepathically. “Dammit, I can't. I can't reach out to her! What do I do?”
“DADDY!” you hear someone shout, and opening your eyes see Caulifla kneeling beside you with worry all over her face. “This is bad. This is really bad. Triumph, hurry!”
“KIIIIIIIII!!” her Stand caws, appearing behind her and leaning over. It begins crying azure tears onto your chest. You feel the healing tears splash against your injury, Caulifla holding her little bell and muttering to herself as golden light gathers around it. After a few moments her little prayer ends, raising the bell and ringing it one more time as golden light washes over you. You feel it imbuing you with that magical light, it washing the pain away over the next several seconds.
“Th-Thanks kiddo.” you say with a sigh, enjoying simply being able to take a full breath without suffering in blinding agony. You reach up with your left hand, and ruffle her hair. “That looked pretty gnarly, huh?”
“I had no idea prolonged contact with cursed, necromantic energy would have that effect on someone.” Milha says, you looking over to your right and seeing her sitting there, looking on. “I didn't think that draining someone continuously like that would begin just outright killing someone. I wonder why?”
“Either way, it's dangerous. And I don't think you all should keep doing this.” Caulifla says, clearly upset with what happened. “You almost killed him. Again!”
“It's okay Caulifla, I was the one who-” you start saying to her, when suddenly another presence appears. A familiar, awful presence, one that makes you immediately surge up to your feet and raise your right hand to your forehead. “SHIT! You two stay here!”
“What's wrong?” Milha asks, completely oblivious.
“It's the Time Patrol.” you say, focusing on that bastard Trunks' ki. There's no way in hell he's going to ruin their lives AGAIN! Then, with a moment's focus, use your Instant Transmission and teleport directly to the trespasser.
