Deeper Motives

Chapter Two - Old Memories

Just as Black and you were about to leave, a harsh mind splitting pain struck your brain. A name popped in without warning and you gasped it out, "Z-zamasu?! " You stuttered. Your heart racing a mile a minute as unknown memories poured into your head. You crouch down, head resting on your knees and eyes closed tightly as clear and vivid moments of a green skin with pointed ears and a white mohawk kai appeared. His grey eyes were warm and his smile sweet as he looked at you. What's going on?! Who is he?! Bigger question is -who are you?

Black looked on as you were mentally attacked now by horrible memories. His brows knitted in confusion, but shook his head getting annoyed by being in a mortal's abode -dead or not. Gritting his teeth, he scooped you up bridal style as tears streaked down your face as the last memory was of this Zamasu screaming at the top of his lungs in despair as you began disappearing from a purple cat God saying "Hakai". After that you open up your eyes panting and crying. How horrible!

" Where's Zamasu?! Is he ok?! " You weren't sure who he was but something in your heart was beyond worried for him for some reason.
"How do you know me?" He lowered his gaze slowly, suspicious. Those cold eyes seemed colder then any place on earth, like hell was frozen solid kind of cold.
You stuttered from the intense glare as he kept flying at high velocity, "W-well I... That is... I think I had a previous life or something...but I don't know how that's possible...because I don't know who or what I am...so..." You knew that sounded really weak and outrageous. Mentally slapping yourself wouldn't be enough.
He raised an eyebrow, "Previous life, huh? Finding you in my dead rivals lab, inside a large container, and you're a sayian. Nothing there seems out of the ordinary to you?" He grimaced at your confusion, "I'm being sarcastic, of course. You were made for something to maybe stop me or kill me. Either way I'd like to see what your purpose is. Because I've already finished my plan."
"What if I try to kill you?" You look up at him genuinely worried.
"Dont worry, I'll kill you first." He stated satisfied with his answer.

You flinched at the cold statement as his deadpan expression focused now, looking straight ahead as green pines and different oaks and red wood flashed by. So many questions, no answers. Riddles would seem a more appropriate description to how you felt now. How was the man carrying you named Zamasu when clearly he doesn't look like a green elf? Granted, both from what you gathered were very handsome, but the Zamasu in your misplaced memories and this man holding had very different personalities. You stare unintentionally at him, making him look at you from the corner of his eye.

"What is it, mortal? Do you not know it's extremely rude and annoying when you stare? " He said low.

"I-I-I just was looking, ok! That's not a crime! " You blush a bit, and look off into the direction you're traveling. Cat got your tongue.

He chuckled. For some reason he found it...endearing. Maybe too much time alone? His partner was usually out alone, sulking or something. So his time was spent in his own thoughts. Which of course would be lonely as hell after a year.
"I'll let it go this one time, mortal. " He smiled "I can be a merciful God. So all is forgiven." He felt immense pride saying this to you for some reason. Like it was a major accomplishment like he graduated high school or something.

"You're a God?" You ask looking at him.

"Yes. Why are you asking? It should be obvious. " He scoffed like that was an insult.

"Well I just thought-... If you're a God wouldn't you have a halo or wings? "

After a brief moment of silence, he lowered his voice, husky and dangerous, "Don't make me drop you. "
You panicked and quickly zipped up. No more making a "god" get pissed at over 200mph flying over a thick forest to throw a temper tantrum.
He cleared his throat, "By the way, you can call me Goku Black. Soon we'll arrive at my abode and most likely you'll meet my counterpart, Zamasu. So if I were you, keep that whole image of what God should look like in your head. He's not as forgiving as I. "

You nod. Only time will tell what will happen next...
