"Yeah; were the harsh ones. You come onto a planet uninvited, and expect a warm welcome..."
Just as Orian was being his usual "broody" self, Orian looked at Stephanie, and then his eyes widened a little as he grabbed her, their bodies pressing together as he moved her towards the right and then harshly against a tree. The 'visitors' from before had come back, but this time with many more friends. Orian looked at her briefly and then made a small apology for the indency of that grab. He turned around slightly and then looked out towards the group of insects, that resembled large praying mantis's. Orian knew that they were no stupid beings, for they were the majority of predators on this planet... the only downside to be being on his homeworld of Eshan. He sighed quietly as he removed his jacket and then threw it off towards the side. Orian's body was built, however, as Orian turned around, the ritual rite tattoo of the Echani culture marked his entire left side of his upper torso, for it had been hidden underneath his jacket. He looked to her as he muttered that she'd be safe and then suddenly he chuckled as his turned around, his body shaking with anticipation.
Orian dashed forwards, an indition left where he had been just then and dust flying up. Orian moved with such precision and speed, it almost made him seem not human, and as he dashed forwards, and built his speed up, Lightning began to crackle around his hand, branching up and down his arm as he then went through the crowd of bugs, the sounds of cracks and tears heard as many fell towards the ground, but then as Orian had done that, they swarmed and then piled on top of his body, and with a grunt Orian was not seen... However, many seconds passed and Orian was still not to be seen.
Orian lay underneath the body of bugs, as he felt the pokes and prodes of the razor blade pincers they had, and he knew that if anything were to happen to him, it would happen to the girl, and he knew he'd have to keep her safe, regardless of how she had came to be here. Orian gathered the force as the pressure once again filled the area and the area seemed to chill, and then without warning a light would be seen as the ground rumbled and then Orian let loose a large sized force repulse which sent the likes of the predators this time, flying in all directions, and shortly after that... they were gone, detered by Orian.
He was bleeding slightly, but as he walked towards Stephanie, steam began to roll off of his body, where the superficial wounds were, and then like magic, they were gone... However, Orian let out a slight irregular breath as a bead of sweat rolled off of his brow. It wasn't due to the training, it wasn't even due to the battle... It was due to his previous hours in the day, in where he had been training with Yuzon for hours on end... and he felt it now. However, pushing his tiredness to the side, he looked at her and then asked.
"Are you okay? Were you hurt?... and I think we should head to my Palace, Its in a city deep within the forest... You'll be safe there, and I can get you the plants you wanted... I know of what you talk about."
