The Observatory

*Ken woulld appear in the observatory with his hand in his pockets. He would appear at the highest point where he would then sit down and look at the waterfall, the sound soothing him. Blackrose would appear behind him speaking to Ken telepathically.*

"Zetsumei..?they could potentially bother me.."

*Blackrose continued to speak to ken as he had his eyes closed..*

"This is true, I guess we'll take them out as they make there way to us, until then it isn't our problem.."

*Blackrose would vanish, catering to the observatory amoung other things, as Ken got up and looked up to the sky before vanishing.*



(visual aid of the observatory..)

*Ken would return from his mission where he would require the power of a sage, increasing him entirely by at least 100 fold. He would then be able to sense all The events that has transpiresd while he was gone,although The observatory wasnt in The léast effected. He would then feel khams essence and how low it currently is, and how it is evolving in a way.*

"Sigh, not even a second of tranquilty.."

*Black rose would appear infront of him kneeling after her long joruny. She had recently not even been able to assist him in battle, she was to busy gathering information of her own. She would then begin to share her findings with Ken..everything she had learned from Zk's betrayal and everything else Ken didn't know..Ken would nod and Black Rose would dissapate. he would begin to make his way to Kham and Gaia's castle, where Luke, Gaia, and Kay-no were being targeted. They being targets of Zetsumei, and kham being kinda down for the moment, they could use all te help they could get.*

"Hope i'm not too late.,"

*Ken would then dissapate on his way to there castle.*

-------TIME SKIP--------

*Ken would appear back in his observatory with Xilo in his hand, the death plant coiled all around dude ass. Ken new that he couldn't kill the guy where they were(inter village battles) so he took him here to decide what the hell he was going to do to this guy. He decided to release him and punt his ass across the entire observatory. He then followed his immobile minded self as he inteded to enjoy himself while he pondered his fate.*

*Ken would appear back in the observatory after his meeting with Valerio. He had recieved his Rain Flame Ring from him along with his box. He walked about as he juggled the box in his hands while pondering and such.*

"What is it that I fight for huh..?"

*He thought to himself as he caught the box and looked at his ring. He stood there pondering this thought but came about to nothing. He sighed as he put the box back in his pocket. He blew the hair from his face and laughed a little.*

"I guess I don't know. Pathetic."

*He said laughing slightly to himself and closing his eyes. He then figured that he hadn't done any training in a while so, maybe fact would come while he was doing so. Ken then cracked his knuckles as he took a rather relaxed fighting stance, this would cause the observatory to shake violently.*

"Oh well, no time to play the shame game. Work to do."

*Ken was harnessing sage chakra from the eternally rich energy that is the observatory, however, he was attempting to try something different. His eyes flared silver, along with his hand as he held his right palm upwards. Within his hand formed a silver ball of chakra, he was attempting to fuse the power of connection of natural energy to that of the unfathomed deadly opportunities of the death seed.*

"I've been working on this for awhile now, ngh. Didn't know that it would take this much chakra to do."

*He said as he began to shape the orb into something else. Ken's face was striken with struggle but he was determined to get this done. He clenched his teeth as he began fusing the two forces together. The silver ball took the shape of a silver plant much like the one below. It's petals gleaming and such.*



*He then clenched his fist, crushing the plant and its petals. This would however connect to the natural energy of everything in the observatory, infecting it with this new found death plant. The plant would now drain the very life and power and essence and of course natral energy of whatever it has connected itself to, leaving the observatory barren of life. This achievement would make ken sad. He was happy at the achievement he had made. Never had he thought he could do such a thing, that he possessed such power. However, he hated the fact that it was at the cost of all the life of the obsevatory. It almost angered him.*

"..."

*He began to reconstruct the observatroy with a mere thought, however, while doing such, he had a breakthrough. Ken realized why he fought. He was connected to nature, on all of it's plane. And in all of its aspects. Ken fought for nature, for its retribution even. He fought so that harmony can roam the forests and plains. So he would do so by inflicting an unimaginable pain on all those who have ever harmed nature. This realization made kens ring glow brightly. He smirked at this achievement as he watched the observatory put itself back together, he still had work to do.*

*While the observatory repaired itself from damage Ken starred at his ring. It brightly flared with a blue flame. He began to recall the information given to him by valerio about the different flames and what each one of them were capable of, including his own.*

"The Rain Flame, eh?"

*Ken said as he clenched his fist. He was told that it was the flame of calm, and was able to reduce things to a state of complete calm, weakening it to a almost motionless or defenseless state. The only problem was, who would he incorporate it into his fighting style. He began to focus as his fist was set ablaze with the rain flame. The amount of chakra it took to maintain it was quite the task, so much that it made ken tremble. However, kens chakra pool was pretty vast and his chakra control was up to peak as well, so it would prove a problem but not much so,

After maintaining the flame in his hand, ken would flail the fingers of his other hand and materialize blackrose. She was standing motionless as always and ready to take any command given to her.*

"Rose, a full powered synthesis cannon. Now."

*Rose didn't hesistate as she rose her left hand which began to gather chakra in her palm. She then held the collected ball of shinning blue energy in her hand before crushing it inbetween her fingers, firing the devestating blast toward ken. Screaming toward him ken stood, unwavering.*

"Here goes nothing."

*As the blast screamed toward him, ken exteded his hand to catch the blast with his barehands. The blast pushed his feet into the ground but ken's left hand stood firm. The blast was quickly beginning to become weaker due to the effects of the rain flame, however, ken had to make sure he could maintain the flame long enough. Ken smirked as he clenched the blast in his hand, dispersing it into the air.*

*Ken shook his hand, making the flame dissappear. He smiled as he walked toward blackrose and tapped her on the shoulder. She dispersed into rose petals but Ken caught one. He wondered how he would go about incorporating into his fighting style. He thought as he morphed the black rose petal into a death seed. He glared at the petal as he set it ablaze with the rain flame. This made the seed seemingly fade into wind, however, the particles of the seed was still within its torrent. Ken smiled as it seemed as if the death seed was now the breath of death. Ken smirked at this new development.

He toyed with the wind as it seemed as if just by passing through something, the wind seems to kill or destroy. *

*Atra appeared at the other end of the observatory, he had been here before so the diamond dragons accepted his presence, after all he had gotten eaten by them for 24 hours on end for durability training. He walked towards the back where Ken's house is with his hands in his pockets. He was wondering about the nocturn*

*Ken would be doing some training with his ring, jutsu, and other powers in the observatory. He had a blunt in his mouth, he usually rolled up when he was going to endure some intense training. SUddenly, ken felt a shift in the natural energy. Someone else was in the observatory, and their natural energy is throwing everything out of balance. He turned his head and activated his divine eye, his silver eye flaring.to see who it was..it was Atra.*

*Atra continued his stroll, being careful not to disturb the peace. Kham hated it when his 'peace' was disturbed, which was weird because he was such a chaotic guy on the inside. Anywho, Atra kept walking towards the back. Kens house was on the horizon, along with the disgusting smell of weed..... ugh*

*Ken would take the blunt from his mouth and flick it behind him. It would burst into pollen and fertilize the soil of the Observatory. Ken flailed his fingers about as the ground under him and Atra would begin to shift and warp abit. Suddenly, Atra would appear infront of ken, a few feet away. Atra's nausea, or the way he felt after the ground shift was irrelevant, ken wanted to know why he was here.*

"Atra.."

*Atra indeed appeared in front of Ken to his dismay. He was REALLY bothered by teh weed smell. He gets enough of it as it is, and it was everywhere. He swirled his fingers around a tad, blowing the smell elsewhere. He looked towards Ken who was SO happy to see him... he smirked a bit*

"In the flesh... I heard you thought I was dead."

*Atra sat down on a random couch*

"Hate to burst your bubble...."

"So, Cross wasn't lying.?"

*Ken said, watching Atra get comfortable in his favorite couch. He had indeed heard Atra died awhile ago. Ken sighed in his head, looks like Ken would have to kill him after all. Oi, he wasn't in the mood to get drenched in blood.*

"Why are you in my house.?"

*Atra scratched his head before looking around the place, this was a nice pad. But no wonder Kham kept the trash of the house where no one could see.... He chuckled to himself before responding*

"Simple.... I came to apologize."
