Malachi came around the corner to see Heater finish his barrage against Hyede. As he watched Hyede fall, Malachi wasn't sure why they were fighting. If Hyede wasn't his normal self again then this could be bad. A serious look spread across his face as he made his move. Trixie, hold on one moment for me, please. I have to take care of something first. Malachi telepathically spoke to the young majin.
Seeing as Malachi was still in his Combat Grandmaster form, he was at a level of power so that he could be a serious threat with the element of surprise on his side. When Hyede hit the ground, Malachi used the unreal speed of the After Image technique to appear parallel to the downed Hyede with a swift right punch for his gut followed by a back spinning left elbow to the same area.
The image Malachi left behind might have shocked Heater and Trixie, since they probably wouldn't notice that it was an image until Malachi was already pounding on Hyede.
The last blow Malachi swung at Hyede would have an image left in its form as well since Malachi continued his use of the technique to appear behind Heater to send a powerful spin kick towards his ribs to hopefully send him rocketing away from the house.
"Hyede, you back to normal now? And what the hell do you both think you're doing to my lawn? I mean...I payed a lot for this property. Don't go screwing it up by fighting on it. There are other places for that....At least not in front of the house...the part that people have to see when they visit. Sheesh."
OOC After Image.

Still flat on his back, Hyede didn’t even get the chance to respond to Heater’s comment before an image of Malachi flashed in front of him and was gone. However it did not go before delivering to devastating blows to the young man’s stomach, both of which sank in without any resistance, and produced twin gasps of pain. Air escaped from his lungs as Hyede still lay there dazed and breathless. He didn’t know what had happened to him for a moment, not until he heard Malachi actually speaking.
“Oh… god… that hurts…” Hyede groaned and rolled over and up onto his hands and knees. “Yes Malachi, its me, hair color not withstanding.” he added and coughed once or twice before continuing. “Sorry about the lawn… and the door… and…” he paused again as he was once again inundated with the memories of both what he’d done here and what Dr. Mech had forced him to do two years prior. Both had hurt him deeply in a way that even his great fortitude could not help against.
“…I’m so sorry.” the dark haired young man choked out, sitting back on his knees.

Trixie went all wide-eyed, as Mal used the after image technique, and, landed a few hits. "Wow......"

Heater himself was alittle shocked, after Mal did what he did. And, then, after he got kicked in the ribs, he landed about 8 yards from the house. "You know, I would be mad, if that wasn't such a cool technique."

Malachi crossed his arms and sighed with a smile. "Sorry I got rough. I'm just joking around about the lawn, really. I can fix it easy. Still, it was fun jumping in and causing some mayhem. Now....where's Akuma? Trixie over there was looking for him and I'm pretty sure he's still around here."

“How can you just put it aside like that?” Hyede asked, getting obviously upset. “You said it your self, I fried that one girl’s face… I tried to abduct your wife, hell I even threatened your kid. I was screaming inside to stop but I couldn’t. You have no idea how hard I was fighting… But I was too weak. Too weak just like two years ago.” he continued, practically on the verge of tears.

Getting up and walking over to them, Heater muttered, "Pull yourself together, Hyede. It's not like you kidnapped anyone of your free will.......Is it?"

Malachi walked over and knelt down next to Hyede, offering him a hand to help him up. "I forgave you the moment I knew what was going on, Hyede. It wasn't you that did those terrible things. It was Brandon. Even though he used your body, there was clearly nothing you could do about it. Being a psychic, I know the kind of stress and torture it puts on a person when you force them to do something....That's why I don't use that power very often. That's also why I want you to know that I don't think any less of you for what happened. As a matter of fact, the fact that you were able to resist at all shows that you have a true iron will."

“But… It’s happened to me twice… Twice I’ve done such horrible things. Sure the first time I had no chance, I didn’t know what was happening, I couldn’t fight back. This time I did, but all I could do was hide and grab for control when it was distracted.” Hyede replied and looked up to Malachi. “I know it wasn’t me, not really… But it was in part. It knew what I knew, mostly. And it bore malice against that girl just because I didn’t like her and it knew it would torture me to see it doing what it did. It made me angry… So angry you can’t imagine. It was like a pit of blackness and I almost fell in. I fear if I see that bastard again I might do just that, fall in and kill him.”
Reaching up and grasping Malachi’s hand Hyede stood up shakily. “Be there for me. Please? I don’t want him to do that again to me… and I don’t want to fall into that pit either.”

"Speaking of the bastard, how are we going to take him down? Hyede has a good plan for it, but, what about when it's actually time for us to kick his damn butt?"

Like a bad storm that had begun its approch, the wind began to pick up slightly, as before the group, Opened a Fairly Large Shadow Portal, as it seemd to act as a Doorway, Revealing Brandon standing upon a Endless Field of Dark Purple Grass, with Mountains in the back.
"Greetings Everyone... Good to see your ALL in good Health once more...." Brandon said, who apparently had a slight, Distraught look on his face, as he saw that Hyede had Returned from the Hanin Plane.

I will, Hyede...trust me...I will be there to help you out. Malachi replied to his friend with a stern and serious tone, although telepathically. He felt a familiar, frustrating presence enter the area, and as he did this, Hyede's mind seemed to explode with thoughts and Malachi, who had just renewed their telepathic link through transmitted speech, caught a glimpse of the explosion and knew what to do. Since Hyede was already standing, he took the initiative and moved as if they were fighting, swinging a strong right for Hyede's chin to lift him off his feet and put him on his back again. Hyede...quick....I know this sounds bad for you, but take a dive. Sorry if it's a bit rough. I know you're one tough guy, though. Malachi sent yet again as he swung the punch.
Heater...play along with this little punch and knock-out deal, alright? Malachi sent to Heater through telepathy as he tried to make the plan come to fruition.
Malachi smirked at the look on Brandon's face. "I told you I was going to pay you back for what you did to Hyede, Brandon. I don't like having to fight him like this....and the fact that you used him to take Mitsuki....You're going to go bankrupt, if you know what I mean." Malachi looked to Heater with a smile as he motioned towards Brandon, "Speak of the devil, eh, Heater? Hahaha...."

Heater smirked, and, chuckled. "Yeah. Speak of the bastard, and, the bastard apparently comes. So, what do you want, Brandon?"

Hyede started to relax as Malachi replied to him in his mind. The voice there felt comforting and warm, reassuring Hyede that he had a friend capable of helping him where he needed it most. However a moment later as the wind picked up and another of those blasted portal opened, Hyede tensed up. He’d told his plan to Heater but there was no time for Malachi, he didn’t know that Brandon couldn’t see him otherwise he’d suspect something was up.
He didn’t have time to act though as almost immediately Malachi hit him with a punch across the jaw, one that turned his head, his body following suit as he tumbled to the ground, rolling over onto his belly. He was about to try and get back up when Malachi’s voice sounded again in his mind with instructions that bore a certain understanding of the situation. Following his friend’s direction, Hyede feigned struggling to get back up before dropping back to the ground and passing out, completing the ruse by reverting out of his transformed state.
