Was it excessive of her to kill an innocent so brutally and then display her corpse so brazenly to escape? Probably, but Kimi simply had no choice. She was hungry and it was just unfortunate that she had to be the unlucky person to share a cage with her. But she was dead now, and although there was a part of her that felt guilty for killing an innocent, she couldn't turn back the hands of time. It wasn't as if she cared about what happened to her body now that she was dead now. Besides, Kimi was still starving, having only taken a couple of bites of the body before the rest of the slavers had come to stop her.
It had been roughly a few hours since she had left the encampment, finding herself in a desert in the middle of nowhere, far from her home back in North City. Her vague knowledge of geography gave her a general idea that she was in the West but even that was barely enough information to go off from. Still, Kimi wasn't about to kneel over and die in the middle of nowhere. She knew that her body could handle far more dangerous conditions than this. It would indeed be a pain in the ass to live through but she would try to console herself with the fact that this would never be the worst thing that she would have to go through in her life.
Finishing her meal and burying the remains in the sand, Kimi began to walk around the desert, her hunger satisfied for now. Although she had considered putting the wraps upon her limbs once again, she quickly decided against it, seeing no point especially when monsters could come out of nowhere to attack her. For now, though, she was alone and the risk of hurting another person was minimal at best. For now, all she could do was walk through the desert, trapped in her own thoughts now that the urges had been curbed for now.
With a clear mind, she now felt guilty for what she had done. The woman's blood was still upon her face, hands, and clothes. They wouldn't wash off that easily. This wasn't her first kill, and yet it didn't get easier. Maybe Kimi should try to ignore it and move on, seeing as it was out of necessity, but in a sense, that woman reminded her far too much about herself. Perhaps if she never left to pursue her dreams, she would be just like the woman. But unfortunately, she would never know. For now, she would silently mediate to herself, doing her best to come to terms with her actions.

"Fascinating. What form of power is this?"
The scene that unfolded before the curious crossbreed was one that would perturb most unsuspecting individuals. Seeing as the every day man or woman were not exactly mentally prepared for the image of one person consuming another out of a need for self assured survival, Calot somewhat understood why. Thankfully, however, he was no ordinary man.
The son of Tirisfel had seen and been through much worse before, and so a woman cannibalizing another one of her kin was one of the least shocking things he had seen to date. The part that interested however was the woman doing the deed herself, and the physical characteristics that she carried upon her person. Her appearance seemed to be vaguely similar to that of the rest of the Earthling riff raff that he had come across his journeys from region to region, apart from the strangely pink hair upon her head. Dyed? Maybe. But considering the inhuman additions to her otherwise, Calot did not think it so.
Upon her mostly human body were two mainstays that hinted at a less than natural birth and upbringing, as both an arm and a leg were seemingly torn and replaced by appendages befitting that of one of his own kin. The demonic energies that emanated and polluted her overall Ki signature also giving reason for both interest and vindication from the young man. This woman, whoever she was, and for whatever reasons, was seemingly forcibly, and intimately, intertwined with the Demon race itself, and her body was clearly showing the after effects of such an unholy union- what with her already giving into more carnal, primal urges, and crossing lines that no mere Earthling would, under normal circumstances, would cross.
He watched as Kimi tore apart their former companion, now turned piquant cadaver, ripping flesh from bone as blood dripped from the corners of her greedily feasting maw. Not even Ayu, the only other individual he knew of that was birthed from a mixture of several other races of beings across the cosmos, seemed to display such intensely animalistic urges due to their innately impure heredity. Then again, the Demon Saiyan decided it was most likely due to the nature of their genetic sullying that caused such unforeseen side effects.
Even so, such a being could prove to be, useful, in the future. Whether that be to push his own limits as a hybrid to see just how far either one of them could go with their conjoined blood, or to act as a means to an end for some future situation that proves to be most dire to the both of them. Either way, the point was well made, and the gears of fate now turned into place as Calot decided to make his presence known to the woman in the wastes.
Landing gently just behind her, Calot removed the hood of his black cardigan from his head, chin tilted upwards as he inspected the Bio-Android like a predator with prey. An intensely calculative gaze being cast over her as he took in her features from closer up. Yes, Demon clan she was- however, unfortunately, it seemed as though whoever took the Demon samples for surgical attachment made the mistake of utilizing some lower level demon's limbs, and now this pitiable sight was the outcome of it. Maybe if she had been adorned with the arm and leg of one of noble descent, she would have been spared from such a painful fate, but alas, no one could turn back the hands of time.
Closing the distance between the two with astute swiftness, Calot took the woman's left hand in his own, bringing it up near his face for further inspection as he spoke to the woman, stating in his usually cold tone, "The fact that a mere mortal such as yourself could handle this demonic power, is, admirable, in its own way."
"How did one like you become cursed with such malign might?"
In addition to the fascinated attitude filling the growing silence, unspoken concern hung in the air faintly, but, it did make its gentle presence as Calot continued to look over the young woman's arm with a critical eye. Perhaps it was Ayu's first encounter with the frigid hearted fighter, or perhaps it was the planet itself softening his hardened exterior.

The feeling of eating another living person, raw was another sensation she would never grow used to. While she had never been a vegetarian in life, she much preferred eating plants to get her protein simply due to the fact that it was cheaper and easier. However, the knowledge of knowing that a person's flesh was now between her teeth was sickening in a way, one that her human brain simply rejected. It made her nauseous, yet her body refused to expel such foul flesh from her stomach. By now she knew that it not only craved but needed it to survive. For her, human flesh was essential as training to live. While she could get by with animal flesh, it didn't seem to stop her cravings but make it worse. While her body could be satiated her mind would never accept a diet purely full of animal flesh. It needed, something more intelligent.
With her mind returning to her senses, she slowly began to slow down as she began her trek through the desert, hanging her head low and dragging her feet through the hot sand. Why? Why couldn't it be easier for her? This wasn't even her first kill, although it certainly had been her first accident in a while. While a part of Kimi was determined to keep her humanity, sometimes it was a challenge. Would it be easier just to give up and go primal? As much as she secretly wanted to see her family again one day, it had been almost five years since she cut off contact with them. Maybe it was best for them to assume that she was dead to begin with. After all, she was no longer their daughter but some sort of twisted monster birthed in a lab.
As she took a few more steps into the desert, some landed in front of her. She flinched, having never seen a person that could fly like that before. During her time in captivity, Kimi was aware of certain fighters like that, capable of superhuman feats through energy called ki or magic. However, she had never been exposed to them like this. While Kimi was meant to fight on par with beings like this, it was almost hilarious how she had never met one in the flesh. As a result, she reverted back to her instincts for safety and fear. Out of habit she bared her teeth, showing rows upon rows of razor-sharp canines. Her sclera turned an eerie yellow color as she stepped forward with her demonic foot and held out her demonic arm, ready to strike.
He didn't do anything though, just speak to her surprise. During her time there, she was warned that if she were to encounter another person outside they would do everything to tear her limb from limb, seeing how Kimi was a threat to the natural order. As a result, it would be easier to catch them off guard to kill them instead. However, considering they were the group that ruined her life, she had always taken their advice with a grain of salt. However, now that she was in front of one of them what was it she could do? Would it be easier to just follow her instincts and attack anyways?
"What the hell do you want from me?" She growled, her tone clearly unfriendly. For now, Kimi would not attack back. At the very least, she still had enough humanity to stop her from doing this. "I don't want to fight you, so just leave me alone. Just because I look like this doesn't mean I want a battle." Even if her body was screaming at her, Kimi always had preferred to begin with her words. Not only because she didn't want to get hurt but also due to the fact that she really didn't want to use this power. Each time she did, it felt like she was giving into the beast. As if the urges would one day consume her mind and body whole.
There was a part of her that wanted to hide her shame, especially seeing how his gaze fell sharply upon her arm, moving it back to obscure it with her body but that was likely a sign of weakness. Perhaps he would kill her if she were to show it. Instead, she would try to show more dominance, raising it up for him to see. "This? It's a part of my body now, nothing special about it at all." It was a lie, a bold-faced obvious one, but she didn't care to trick him. She just wanted to make it clear that she had no interest in all of this.
