[The post starts with a twirling view of the sky, the ground, the sky again, the ground again, etc as the device bounces on the pavement. It just so happens to land mostly on its side, slightly tilting upwards as it leans against some debris behind it. The shot is perfect for catching a white-hooded man standing with a drawn sword in the distance. His robes are stained with black scuff marks and lots and lots of red blood.

Something has taken a beating, but it looks like it dealt out as much as it received. The Italian drops his form a second later and stands perfectly still, sword tip resting on the ground lazily. His body language depicts he doesn't seem to care about anything right now.

Indeed when he turns towards the communicator a minute later his expression is utterly blank. Its an eerie calm and cold expression with no emotion. Even his eyes reflect a dead golden hue. He walks calmly towards the device, his hand barely holding onto a sword many know he normally takes very good care of but now its practically being dragged across the ground in his limp grip.

He bends down and calmly picks up the communicator, and without even a second glance simply turns it off.]



[[Giovanni has hit rock bottom emotionally. He appears utterly calm and cold, dead even. But in reality he's insane from grief. Provoke him and he will snap. He's somewhere near the big baddie for any up for a commentlog. :3]]

[Kadaj stays glued in the same spot while he waits, not bothering to fight, defend himself, anything. Souba is clenched in his hand by his side. Giovanni has gone to the deep end, into his realm. Why not make an ally of him?

At the very least, he'll make an interesting plaything.]

[Giovanni headed to Horton at his own pace. For taking his time however it didn't really take him that long at all to get there. That's what happened when one traveled by rooftop instead of conforming to the restricting streets below.

Giovanni peered around as he approached from another building, not quite near but not too far away. He spotted Kadaj and watched for a moment. He was here for the creature, not the boy. But...]

[His attention wasn't to the rooftops, but Kadaj glanced around and spotted Giovanni. Finally, he moved a little to wave at him.]

You made it!

[His voice was as warm as someone welcoming family home after a long time away. The look in his eyes, though, was blank. He threw himself in the air and landed right next to him.]

Let's just end this place for good. Right now.

[Giovanni took an unconscious step back when Kadaj leapt up to him but he reset his stance and stood his ground as he stared at the boy. His brows furrowed as he considered Kadaj's words.]

What do you mean?

[Kadaj grins, wide and joyless, and starts spinning around to gesture at the city.]

I mean to make it all go away. All the sadness and stupidity. All the foolish panicking over the same things. No more waiting for just things to happen! Once this city is gone, we can go to a new, better city! It's so much better than this stupid place.

[Giovanni seems more hesitant the longer Kadaj goes on, the more the kid's words sink in through his murky state of mind. His sanity might have snapped in two from watching his son die in his arms, but in the core of his being Giovanni was still an innately good man. Deep inside him there was still the protective guardian and the creed training that ruled him inside and out. There was still a bit of him that knew right from wrong, and this was idea leaning more towards the latter in Giovanni's heart.

He frowned at Kadaj in thought and then finally asked after a long contemplative moment:]
You mean to destroy it all? ...The people included?

[Kadaj nodded quickly. He didn't realize Giovanni's doubts. They had seen too much, hadn't they? Surely they would feel the same. They had been pushed too far and now it was time to return the favor and make sure it never happened again, right? And if he disagreed, it was no loss to him. He saw Giovanni as nothing but a tool.

He still owed the tool an explanation.]
Everyone here. I don't want to see anything or here it any longer. Except us.

[Giovanni was too ingrained with goodness to do this, even in madness.]

...I cannot do that.

[Silence. Then Kadaj turned slowly back to the chaos and gave a detached shrug.]

Then you will meet the same fate as them.

I will not--I can not--allow you do this. You cannot simply destroy all these people on a whim!

I've been thinking about it for a while.

And you can't stop me.

Try if you must.

[By now, he has his hand on the hilt of his sword.]

But you don't have to do this, giovane.

[Kadaj scoffs at the gesture.]

If you get in my way, I will.

Stand no more.

[Without warning, Souba is out and pointed at Giovanni. He doesn't move to attack though.]

[Giovanni unsheathes his own sword as the boy stands still. He holds it loosely at his side but his body language reads as fully ready to react.]
