*Stands at the edge of the pier, eyes scanning the moonlit sea*

Soon my prime self will be reaching heaven. Once that's done my true plan can finally commence...

Don't think I won't fight you too... Then finish the job with Data.

@Extra

You're making a big mistake... By not leaving before I build a grudge against you.

@Inimical

I’m not leaving, because I am ending you.

@Extra

Making an enemy of Nemid... and all of his followers is the biggest mistake anyone can make.... Consider that, even if you succeed.

@Inimical

You all have made an enemy of many others, others stronger than those who fought you. Even if they come, they will be met with unrelenting force.
*my other hand splits into multiple spike tendrils and I stab you throughout your body when I close in on you*

@Extra

*The wounds are inflicted unimpeded and I point my palm toward you, with my arm still down at my side, and impale you with a short, intense blast of energy*

[Nimda]

A better opportunity...
*Disappears and reappears in the training field*

*Turns and walks back down the pier, the din of the city afar off and water lapping at the piers underside the only sounds to be heard in the stillness of the night*
