"You missed quite a bit, old friend." Royal's voice spoke from behind the newcomer, as he leaned against the wall.
It didn't take him long to sense the arrival of the man, so as soon as he did, he appeared behind him. It was a gift of sorts, but then again this man had similar Abilities to himself, so naturally Royal was able to sense it.
That was of course, if it was even who he thought it was.

[i]Rafael looked... Older. His face covered in scars, with very dry skin. He had left the Dojo after the events of the invasion and then Malkoren appearing yet again. [/i] "Heh. Been a while." [i]He straightened himself up.[/i]
-
Royal... Well Royal looked the same. As if he hadn't seen anything. But it was clear he had seen war, a battle of some sorts. His eyes were a dead give a way. "Good to see you again, Seven." He said, grinning.
-
"Guess you heard my actual name after all. Well. The one most people know me as." [i]He offered to shake his friend's hand. A smug smile on his face[/i]
-
"Wasn't heard after you left." Roy said, shrugging his shoulders before shaking Rafael's hand. "Tales of a number wreaking havoc. Wasn't hard to piece together. Explains the scars too." He said, laughing.
-
"Me? Wreak havoc? Nah. That'd require effort. If anything that's either my granddaughter or my grandson. What? I spent a lot of time in a different dimension. Settled a bit."
-
"Hm. Maybe it is." Roy said, shrugging his shoulders again as he leaned against the building once more. "You look old." He said, laughing again.
-
"I know. I pull that look off quite well don't I? Though. Would not recommend trying to teach the consequences of time travel to any children. Ages you years in days."
-
"Time travel. Never really did like that too much, if I'm being completely honest. Top much can change." Royal said, sighing slightly. Clearly, he had some sort of experience.
-
"That was the point I was trying to make to them." [i]He simply shrugs, smiling[/i]
-
"So! Where's the family? You gonna introduce me or you going to sulk around the Dojo as usual?" Royal asked with a heart laugh, taking a step away from the wall he was leaning on.
-
"The family? Heh. Come on, you really think they would be free if they weren't with me already? Lots of stuff to do." [i]Rafael brings up a holographic image of Derix, his daughter in law, and his grandchildren[/i]
-
"Hey, a guy can dream can't I?" Royal asked, inspecting the image. "Damn Fine family you got there."

-
"What? But you just got here!" Royal was quick to protest, giving off a mock sadness.
-
"You say it like it's actually been 30 years for you. Don't worry. I don't plan to to go for long.. Well. If I do."
-
"Thirty years? It's been... About 47 for me. I hopped around, took a break the place. But when I got back, only about 2 months passed." "I hate how relative time is here."
