The Umbra visibly winced at the word Demonarc as if prodded with a needle. "It is still a Dei'arc Umbra, so yes, it very well could take on any form it chooses. But the Nihiliod infection alters its abilities so it might not be able to do so as well as it could." She closed her eyes and seemed to relax for a moment. "Though there is a point there: safety is a luxury in this galaxy. The Dei'arc Null is one threat, but you'll soon understand why we are not overly concerned about it than we are of the Nihiliods."

"That aside, he's seen what I'm capable of. He'll surely want my body instead. If what I've gathered from the damage done to the colony is accurate, he is cruel and unrelenting. He will do everything he can to make sure his victims suffer. My abilities, I think, are better for that than yours are, Terra. And judging by his hasty retreat upon my arrival... he has a time limit on how often he can use this ability. He wouldn't waste it so readily."

"Yes, I understand. Still, we'll want to be as careful as possible, right? For all we know, that time limit may have passed more than once already. That would give him enough power to take someone else's form and then yours immediately. We have to prepare for the worst."
It was then that Terra's eyes widened slightly, another idea coming to her. "Furthermore, what if he manages to find another vessel that possesses even more destructive power than yours? Then we'll have a completely new threat to worry about. I know that's not likely, but it's a good thing for use to get these possibilities out in the air. This way we can prepare for whatever he might throw at us."

"Now that you mention that... It's a good thing Bardock didn't come to the surface with us.. Umbra... is it possible that he could take multiple individuals forms in such a short span of time?"

"Show us an army and we could take on the form of all individuals in it with a glance. That is what is possible." She leaned back, pulled out a thermos and took a drink from what seemed to be a hot beverage. "Remember, Dei'arcs were originally created to be bioweapons, and we were made to be assassins capable of taking down a government from within. We had to be capable of changing quickly to avoid detection."

"Mmmm... That's an issue. How exactly can we discern between a Null and an Ally in that case?" Phenom asked.
(I don't really have a lot to write right now.)

"Pray that the Nihiliod infection keeps it from being a perfect mimic. Most of the Nulls I've seen have some telltale feature that gives them away. For instance, one would always have one eye always with a dark red iris." She took another sip of the beverage. "Hopefully it won't be that subtle."

"A red iris, hmm? Terra, you told me earlier that he took your form... did you notice any sort of telltale sign that one could distinguish?"

Nope, Terra thought. Didn't pay attention. "Sorry, but no. If he did have one, I didn't notice it. Of course, if he's still in my form, then he'll be pretty easy to spot, won't he?" Terra smiled when she said that.
Suddenly, a look of shock enveloped Terra's face. "Wait... he still looks just like me! He's been out there a full day! Oh, I hope he didn't do anything mean with my face! To think, he might have burned down some other village while looking like me! Ugh, this sucks..." Terra sighed. "Not to mention the fact that he's maybe still going to look like me when we find him. Ugh, that's gonna be horrible in many, many ways..."

A soft cooing laugh came from the Umbra. "The ad'ita sounds like a young Hunteri. You're right to worry, but fretting about it won't do you any good." She was about to take another sip but she then paused. "If it did do anything for the past few hours, the Hunteri would have taken care of it." The box she was sitting on creaked slightly as she straightened up a little and closed her eyes. "Speaking of which, have either of you pieced together why they let you go on with this?" She opened one eye partially to observe their reactions.
