After her training with Natto in the wastelands, Tomo had come to realize just how long of a road she had ahead of her. Sure, she was powerful for her age... she could easily see that by comparing herself to other 16 year old however that wasn't enough for her... why should age limit how powerful one person could become? She looked at Natto who was only a few years older than her, and already his power level was high above the hundred thousands!! She respected that man more than anyone else, and not just for saving her when she crash landed on Vegeta, but because he seemed to truly care about her, he really wanted to see her succeed and get her memories back. She would do anything to accomplish that goal, and to keep Natto by her side she would do anything for him.
She couldn't just rely on Natto's help to get stronger however... while his training sessions were intense and very helpful, she had to be able to get stronger on her own too. She had made her way out to the old Tuffle ruins, finding nothing but very old crumbled buildings that could barely be used as shelter. The ground underneath her feet was devoid of any like that could have grown any crops or sustained anything at all. She knew very little of the history of this place beyond the fact that the saiyans had laid waste to it in a war against the Tuffles a very, very long time ago. Well, that was ancient history and didn't matter now, she would use the ruins as she needed to train herself, to become better than she was.
She made her way as far into the ruins as she thought she could, using her scouter to scan the area for any signs of life, or that anyone else was around her. When she was able to confirm that she was in fact alone, she began some simple exercises to stretch out her muscles so that she didn't end up injuring herself as she practiced. She did everything from those simple stretches, to a thousand push ups and sit ups to basic punched and kicks. Once she was satisfied, her face grew serious as she drew both fists to her hips, extending her stance into a horse stance and exhaling slowly. She began to summon up her own strength, a red aura springing up around her in a display of fiery strength. However, she did not stop there, she drew on her power constantly, trying to raise her power level as much as she possibly could, using the same method she had in her training with Natto.
"Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
A fierce wind broke out around her as she stregthened herself, her ki pushing into the nearby buildings and cracking what was left of the stone ruins. The ground underneath her feet began to shake, telling her to take to the sky so that she could attempt splitting her concentration between powering up and flying.
The pure exertion of this energy was enough to make the young girl weat, stopping only once she found that she was very much out of breath. She kept her power level at a steady maximum as she launched herself into the Tuffle ruins, punching her way through stones with her Atomic Strikes. Powering up her limbs with energy and causing an explosion against the stones as she punched it. She kicked away the debris that came towards her with the same technique and blasted anything she could that would be launched into the air as target practice, as well as a small exercise for her speed and dodging abilities.
'not enough... I need to work on my speed...'
The young girl thought to herself as the debris settled around her. She then braced herself for takeoff, soaring through the skies at an amazing speed. Every step of the way, she would try to push herself faster and faster, zipping in between the debris while attempting to avoid it. Eventually, she began moving so fast that a faint image of herself was being left behind for only a few seconds at a time. She looked at this effect curiously, and quickly changed her tactics to understand more of the technique she was apparently developing. She began flying in circles above one of the ruins, watching as the images of herself left behind, would match her most recent actions... the slight flex of her arm, any different faces she made were all reflected in the images making it seem as if there was temporarily more than one of her there at a time.
She spent the next hour working on this technique, working out the small kinks that she found, attempting to make it work not only when she was going around in circled, but whenever she was fighting an invisible enemy too. After that hour was done however, Tomoroko flew back towards the ground, safely landing on a newly destroyed patch of the ruins and sitting down on one of the stones. Her body was sweating profusely after the training and she just needed a quick break before she would get started again... maybe even a quick nap would do her body some good. Let it rest before she put it through some even more intense training.
"Just a quick nap... there's no one around... my scouter will let me know if anyone gets close..."
The girl stated as she stretched out her arms before slipping off the rock and using the object as a makeshift pillow as she laid back. She yawned widely before closing her eyes. It seemed learning the new technique had taken a lot out of her as the young saiyan seemed to fall asleep almost instantly.
Another hour went by silently as Tomoroko slept soundly. Her scouter flashed a warning, beeping as 3 power levels were quickly approaching the young girls location, however the girl didn't respond, instead she just rolled over with a grumble. The three power levels continued to get closer and closer until finally, two male saiyans landed on either side of her, the third, a female saiyan came flying straight down towards Tomoroko, aiming to punch the sleeping girl in the gut.
Tomoroko's eyes snapped open however as she rolled onto her back and brought her hands up to catch the punch before it successfully connected with her. She then followed up by swinging her legs up and kicking the girl away from her. That got rid of one problem, however one of the males grabbed her leg and pulled her up from her lying down position. She glared at him, then to the other man who's boot promptly connected with her face.
"Tsh... Who the hell are you guys... what do you want with me?"
She asked, though without waiting for an answer, her tail slithered up the man holding her and wrapped itself tightly around his neck, squeezing tightly in hoped of suffocating him. To help her case, she elbowed the brute in the gut hard enough to force him to drop her. One on the ground, she swept her leg underneath his own, watching him tumble onto the ground before removing her tail out of harms way.
"Koro!"
She heard the female saiyan cry out as the brute fell. She barely had time to react as the woman came flying at her once more, faking a punch to her face before grabbing the front of her armor and lifting Tomoroko off the ground, tossing her into the air. The second male then took the opportunity to fire a dark blue energy beam directly into her chest. The beam exploded on contact and Tomoroko went flying through the air, crashing into one of the remaining walls that crumpled under her weight.
Tomoroko groaned but quickly pushed herself to her feet, her hand flying up to her scouter to quickly assess their power levels and get a better idea of who they were. Each of them seemed to be sitting at around four to five thousand power level... however, each of them was also wearing armor, and she quickly assumed that they were suppressing their energies which placed them all roughly at her own power level. This only left her with one choice, she had to end this fight fast before they could increase their power levels and seriously hurt her, or even kill her if that was their intent. None of them seemed keen to tell her what they were here for, but with power like that no doubt they were elites... why would they be after her in that case..?
By the time she had sized them all up, all three of them were up on their feet once more, flying directly towards her. Tomoroko took off into the skies, her red ki flaring around her body once more as she took the lead. To anyone looking on, it almost looked as if she was just leading a group of saiyans, however as they caught up to her, the real airborne fight began. Punches and kicks began to fly at an incredible speed as all three saiyans attacked Tomo at once. She did what she could to guard herself against them, blocking with both her arms and feet, though not without her fair share of strikes! Whenever she could she would retaliate, only to wince as one of their strikes connected with her body. The female saiyan even went as far as grabbing Tomoroko's tail, causing the girl to growl lowly before spinning around so fast that she never saw Tomo's kick coming. The female saiyan went flying as the other two continued attempting to pummel her. However, Tomoroko now had an opening, a way out... She flew away from her spot so fast that she left behind an after-image of herself, both arms up guarding against their attacks. Whenever their punches went straight through their bodies, they looked around themselves in frustration.
She went straight for the brute she had knocked down earlier, extending her arm and firing off her Rail gun technique. Had the man not moved, it would have caught him straight in the forehead, instead he cried out as it hit him in the chest and he went careening towards the ground. The other male yelled loudly, but not at his fallen ally, towards Tomoroko. The yell had been quickly followed by a mouth blast that soared at the young girl with a vengeance. Tomo however flew directly towards it, charging her Atomic Strike once more, using that to punch into the blast when it came upon her, dispelling the attack as if it had never been there at all.
She continued her charge towards the man, but never made it before a piercing pain cut through her side. She barely managed to see the disk shaped energy blast before dodging it, and had no time to get away from the brute before he knocked her with both fists out of the sky. She landed hard on the ground, leaving a crater to surround her as she came to a stop.
"Shit..."
Tomoroko hissed as she slowly pushed herself up to her knees. She pushed the button on her scouter a few times before sending a silent message to Natto. She didn't know what to say, she didn't want to ask for help, but at least if the worst happened, he would know to look for her here as the only thing that was sent out were her co-ordinates.
Whenever the girl was back up on her feet, the whole world seemed to go red in that instant, her eyes narrowed and she even went so far as to bare her teeth at her enemies. The girl attacking her had taken off her armor, showing her true strength of 20,000 while the male continued to remain at a 5,200 power level. The numbers didn't even register in Tomoroko's mind just then, all she wanted was to kill the bastards that had dared to attack her.
"Stupid low-class brat, take THIS!"
The woman had been charging up another disk like energy attack while the male was charging his own ki attack. As Tomoroko attempted to fly out of the crater, both enemy saiyans fired off their attacks, catching her before she could get too far. Tomoroko had to charge her Atomic strike attacks once more, dispelling the weaker saiyans beam before just barely flying out of the disks range. Much to her surprise though, the disk didn't disappear. It simply looped around and began to make it's way back around towards Tomoroko.
The young girl came charging through the smoke created by the initial blasts and flew towards the man that had shot at her with hre full speed. She charged her Atomic fist once more, ready to hit eh man square in the chest, however as she got up close and swung her fist, her image seemed to pass directly through his body before fading completely, throwing the man off guard. Tomoroko then 'appeared' behind him, her foot glowing with bright red energy as she kicked him up into the air with a loud cry.
Not wasting any time, the girl blasted up after him once more, grabbing onto his tail and stopping him from flying too far away from her. When she brought him back, she punched him in the face before grabbing his body and tossing him towards the oncoming disk. She heard his howling cry of pain as the energy coursed through directly through his tail and left leg, only hitting that because the woman had been able to reangle her attack in time before killing him. The disk then continued on it's path, leaving a trail of blood behind it as it headed directly for Tomoroko.
The gap was closed before the young saiyan could fully avoid the attack. the disk cut through her armor, and cut deeply into her chest, leaving a long bloody gash as her armor fell from her body. The disk then faded, with no energy left to spare at the woman who had launched it already had two more formed in her hands. Tomoroko turned her dead gaze to the girl, hate and bloodlust in her gaze as she began flying towards her, without any regard for the deadly attack that had nearly killed her.
However, she never made it close to the girl, instead, both men, no matter how wounded had managed to latch onto her. The man now without a leg clutched onto her tail tightly while wrapping his arms around her right side to immobilize her, while the other man held her left. The woman smirked at the sight, now having an easy target if she acted fast. The two destructive disks were soon flying towards the immobile, enraged young saiyan and while the young girl struggled, she didn't seem to be able to get lose.
"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!"
She cried out suddenly as her rage began to boil over. Her red ki flared up around her once more, resembling a raging fire as the pure energy began to physically burn at the men holding her in place. She pumped more and more energy into her aura until it began looking less like fire and more like an orb. Once the energy had reached it's peak, it suddenly exploded outwards, pushing the two men off of her and blowing away the disks that threatened once more to end her life.
The two men went flying, stopping only once they had both crashed into the dirt, the woman had to bring her hands up to cover herself from the blast and prevent herself from being blown away. However, what she hadn't expected was for her disks to be blow back directly at her. One of the disks came soaring diagonally through part of her chest, while the other cut deeply into her pelvis. She wasn't even able to howl out in pain before dropping to the ground, blood spouting forth from the severed arteries that would keep her heart going. The woman quickly began choking, gasping for air as she attempted to cover the wound as if it would help. However, Tomoroko was already in front of her.
The young girl kicked the elder female saiyan flat on her back before moving forward and stomping down hard onto her chest, cackling at the sight of the blood that gushed out of her, and the ensuing scream that resulted. Again, and again, and again she stomped down on the girl, even leaning down to punch her repeatedly in the face. She didn't stop, even when the elder female stopped moving altogether.
The men behind her cried out in rage when they were finally able to stand up once more. Now, without their armor on, both of them stood at roughly 19000 PL. Each of them charged at the now distracted Tomoroko. The brute of the two was actually the first on the gorey scene, grabbing Tomoroko by the shoulder before plowing his fist into it until you heard the crack of bones breaking beneath his strike.
Tomoroko growled out in pain, attempting to turn around and knock him away from her with her left elbow. Her elbow never connected with her intended target however as the second male saiyan fired off an energy beam that blew the girl forward, out of the first man's grasp.
Tomoroko was quick to lose her balance. While at the moment she couldn't feel the pain being inflicted on her, her body was still reacting to her loss of strength and energy. She fell to her hands and knee's, shaking angrily as she grabbed at the dirt under her hands. Her red ki flared up around her once more, her energy building up as fast and as far as it would go before blowing outwards once more in a reflex move to blow the saiyans away from her.
Even in her enraged battle mode, Tomoroko couldn't keep up the energy, her blast sputtered just after hitting the two men, barely blowing them 5 steps away from their position before Tomoroko fell face first in the dirt. The brute had managed to push through her blast and slam her down into the ground.
