The Last Avenger and The World of Omni: Raincheck
#16
A shiver was sent down Lubbock's spine as the ninja and Mami shot looks of disappointment at him after his mention of babes.
"Jeez, just asking!" Lubbock put his hands up and lit up like a red light bulb.
Not too soon after the new ninja arrived, who proclaimed himself as Obito Uchiha, a fight broke out between him and the other ninja, trading words about clans and ninjas and other things that Lubbock had no idea about. He began to raise his hands shyly and open his mouth to speak, but decided it was a stupid move and he would make more of an ass of himself than he already had. He just watched as the two discussed, and eventually the argument died out with the first ninja turning his attention back to the troopers, asking about the blood on their white armor.
"I'm betting you all could tell us that," Hammond accused the group. Lubbock recoiled in defiance. U-um, come again? he worried.
"Don't worry, Lubbock. This in fact has nothing to do with you. Pull yourself together," Syura encouraged his owner. Obliging, Lubbock regained his posture and slid his hands into the pockets of his green coat. It seemed that the other three were baffled too, the ninja voicing his confusion as well.
"Yeah, Mr. Hammond, I believe that we're all slightly confused as to your reasons here," Lubbock voiced his opinion, trying to act it cool. The trooper had then raised the visor of his mask and pulled out a strange device, which he clicked, materializing some kind of incorporeal image of a random person. He explained that the person shown was a Prime. A small cloud of smoke floated outwards, and he noticed Mami trying to wave it away. However, the green-haired man just pulled his goggles down onto his eyes to block the vile substance from ruining his sight. He placed his sleeve over his mouth and nose. He turned his attention back to the image, but his eyes caught something on the way. Lubbock noticed that the ninja seemed to be quite captivated by Mami's appearance, and tried covering up his awkwardness as he turned back to the floating image. Hammond clicked it again, materializing another person beside the first, stating that they were a Secondary, and that Primes could summon them into the existence of Omni's world. Are you saying the ninja brought that monster into existence? Why would he then be fighting it? What dark motives does he have? Lubbock shot a subtle look at the ninja, whom he had yet to discover the name of, and took a look at his eyes. Not at any point did they look like they were hiding something. Lubbock looked back to the armored man.
"Sure, I've seen my share of massive snakes in my time as an assassin," he didn't even bother covering that part up, due to being in a whole new world, "But none I have never known personally," Lubbock looked over at Mami, who seemed to still be baffled, but the ninja spoke up
"I knew the rogue ninja known as Orochimaru, but a bond we did not share. Orochimaru was a foe, an enemy to myself and all other Shinobi of the Leaf. So, you have the wrong person if you think I would align myself with him. I had no desire to reunite with that cretan," he stated his loathing of the creature he apparently summoned. One of the troopers spoke up, and judging by his badge he was of a high rank, although below Hammond. He voiced the fact that one of their comrades were killed, something Hammond stated earlier without such aggression. The young man, known as Cody, was put in his place by his superior. Hammond's attention flew back to the ninja he was questioning.
"You there. You say you knew the secondary in question?" he asked, almost like a detective. After some thinking and debating with himself, the ninja replied, confirming that he had encountered him before. He was questioned further, being asked how he arrived. Apparently, he was in a tournament, then he was falling, an alibi in which Cody challenged. I believe it. I kind of had a similar experience. That gate though... that was kinda weird... Hammond had also agreed, to which Lubbock let out a sigh of gratitude. Although, he mentioned that involuntary Secondary Summoning was common for those who lose consciousness. Lubbock hadn't done so, so he wouldn't have summoned the Snake. Finally Mami spoke again, offering to help the troopers if she could, which Lubbock admired. Lubbock also didn't want anyone to be in debt, and showed his opinion to with a small nod.
The group was 'off the hook' apparently, and the same situation wouldn't be overlooked in the future. The troopers offered the group to follow into the one of the verses, the one to the Empire it seemed. However, Mami had decided to turn down the offer which rather surprised the assassin. She gave her gratitude to the ninja, now known as another 'Uchiha' like Obito, then the troopers, then, amazingly, to Lubbock. She respected his offer to help, and said she may take that offer one day. Lubbock went bright red and his green hair covered his face.
"T-thanks, no problem! I'm just glad that both of you are safe!" he told her, before sliding the goggles back up onto his head and revealing one of his green eyes, the other still covered by his equally green hair. Mami turned around and left for a different verse, to which Lubbock payed no attention. With Mami turning down the invitation, he was reminded that he really didn't have anything to do with the group, as he was used to strange things happening that sent him to strange places. He decided he would figure these things out himself. He also didn't need the prick of a voice inside his head making him more of an embarrassment in front of everyone.
"Actually, come to think of it, I might take my leave too. I feel I want to explore the rest of the place, and I don't really have anyone I want to find, so yeah," he was slightly disappointed by his own choice, but decided to live with it none the less. He turned on the heel of his shoe towards the Beach Babe Gate, before waving over his shoulder, "If you need anything, you'll know where I am!" he told them, before running off.

(Mami, it's ironic that you are going to the Deeps, because that's exactly the original destination of Lubbock! I hope you don't mind if he unknowingly goes there with you. I believe that something funny could happen if the two suddenly met again!)
