Dulga Tarata
Dulga listened quietly, not even showing an inch of emotion when Donny mentioned
him.
"Kensai is here. I knew it. I fucking knew it." This was worse than she thought. There wasn't just people after them; it was like the ghosts of their past was coming back to haunt them. This nightmare wasn't going to end until they were all dead or worse. But this wasn't a dream and they weren't that powerless. They might not be strong now, but next time this happens they will be. Dulga will make sure of that. First she looked down to Donny and thought about Yukari. Dulga had fought alongside Yukari in the previous hero class battle. She seemed weak to her, but she had a lot of guts to go up against Kensai. Dulga would make it a point to see her soon and pay her respects. Then Dulga looked to Ken. His story gave Dulga a lot of questions to ask, but also answered a few. In fact just about everything she had suspected was more or less correct. Takeshi and his sister was from the Shadow Clan, if his quirk and the quirk of those who attacked them were any indication. All shadow based. Roy's father also had some hand in his survival, and while it might be too soon to make this assumption, she assumed that Roy's father may be in league with the Shadow Clan. She's never heard of a villain who legitimately respects a hero after all. At least not one who's alive. And of course Kaida; they were after her too. Why, Dulga didn't know. She could guess. But she knows that Kaida is a target for capture.
Finally Roy warned that these villains were leagues above them. Dulga shook her head and stood up.
"You're right. But not for reasons you think. This Shadow Clan, Kensai, and any other villain who might be involved, they're exactly what we're suppose to be facing as villains. So yeah they're much stronger than us. Because we're weaker than your average hero." Walking over to Kaida's side, Dulga unclasped her cloak and draped it over Kaida. It would warm her better than the thin hospital blankets given to her. Dulga moved some hair out of Kaida's face and caressed her cheek. She felt sorry that Kaida had to go through all of this, and Dulga wasn't going to stand idly by and let it happen again. None of this was going to happen again if Dulga has any say in it.
"Run or hide they will find us. So heal up and get stronger. And I don't just mean working on your body and quirk." Dulga tapped the side of her head.
"This isn't a friendly spar. There won't be any training. If you can't match convictions with a villain you will die. Plus... There's more than just your life on the line now. They're after Takeshi's life, his sister too. Someone intends to take Kaida away from us. Fight like everyone's life depends on it."Dulga turns away from Kaida and Roy, walking past Mako, Reina, and Donny.
"In case I haven't made it obvious enough... It's kill or be killed. Your choice." Dulga knew those words were going to shock some of them. They're going to question her. Very likely they'll try and stop her. But she wasn't going to let them. Time was running out much faster than Dulga had anticipated and now was not the time for fun and games. There was no way Dulga knows if or when these people will strike again, and they certainly weren't going to do it when they're all ready. So Dulga had to go. She needed to get ready for when the villains after Kaida, after Takeshi, and possibly after everyone else, comes baring down onto all of them. It was stressful but Dulga had been preparing for this moment ever since her mother died. It was time to put it all into action.
