Evergreen was ready and raring to go for round two. He had no intentions of letting his opponent get anywhere close to Racheli. Now, Jaden wasn't stupid for he knew that the world wasn't nearly as black and white as some thought it to be. After all, he was protecting a wanted criminal and as much he hated to admit it, Pulse did have a good point that someone with as much power as her needed to be supervised, especially with that temper of hers. 

However, he kept reminding himself that this was War-Pulse whom was saying all this, and that Racheli was only a criminal cause of forces beyond her control, and he had seen for himself that she was trying her best to do some good in this city. That, in his eyes, put her leagues above someone like Pulse whom killed people and made a profit off it!

He saw his golems getting ready to go on the attack and had no desire to stop them....at least, that was until he saw the other man walk out from behind the merc! "STOP!!" He roared and automatically the wolves and serpents stopped their charge and looked back at their master, waiting. 

He sighed in relief and leered over at the other man whom had interrupted their fight, and was about to admonish him...until he started talking...and his instincts suddenly started to flare up, especially at the realization that this man was familiar with War-Pulse. The plant man cleared his throat at being asked for his name, "Equilibrium, huh? Name's Evergreen...as for your request, I'm afraid I can't do that.." 

The plant warrior raised his hand to stop him before he could say anything else, "And yes, I'm well aware that the man beside you is tough. I just got slammed through a frekkin building in case you didn't notice..." He pointed to the mostly demolished building behind them for emphasis. "Look...I don't know what your relation is to Pulse here but this matter doesn't concern you...besides, regardless of whether you believe me or not, there's a lot going on here you don't know about..."

"Partner, what do you think you're doing?" Gaia's voice sharply cut into his mind as he got the impression of a scowl, "That man in front of you is a Metahuman! You need to take him out before he can use his powers!" 

"No, Gaia, we're not doing that." He mentally shot back without a second thought.

Now he got the impression she was facepalming, "Oh for crying out loud...don't tell me this is another one of your "I'm a Hero. I don't kill people" moments..."

"Actually, no, it isn't," He admitted, causing her to stop, "Look where that guy's standing. and remember what he's said up till now. One of the only reasons I can think of he'd want us to give up what we know...is cause he and Pulse are...well, I don't want to say "friends" but definitely not enemies...attack and Pulse will likely try to defend him...and if I attack..."

"Pulse would likely use the kinetic energy from what you do to power up even further..." Gaia finished for him and then went quiet for a moment. 

"Something wrong, Gaia?" He asked.

"No, nothing. I'm just surprised..." She tilted her head within his mind space, "You actually bothered to use your brain and analyze the situation for once..."

Jaden was so tempted to facepalm but instead he settled for rolling his eyes. Even when she was praising him, Gaia tended to somehow make even that sound sarcastic. "Equilibrium...listen, I don't have a quarrel with you...so I'm going to ask nicely...Stand Down," Just in case, he sent a mental command for some of his constructs to keep a close eye on the man, "Just turn around, return what you stole, and leave...I'm giving you a chance to back out and I suggest you take it..."

"If you stay though...and you choose to support him..." He pointed to Pulse, "...I will have no other option but to see you as an enemy too..." Jaden did his best to get across the urgency of this, "Please...a lot is at stake here, and I know I may not be in the best position to say this...but...I get the feeling you know what kind of person the man you're standing next to is...so don't make a decision you're going to later regret..."

He really hoped that Equilibrium would at least consider what he was saying before making any hasty actions.
