3 days have passed since Celmaru's and Ayumu's initial encounter.
Despite his past experiences in the area, and even telling himself otherwise, Celmaru Waterfield showed up anyway. The cold, frosty region that were the Yunzabit Heights was where Celmaru believed to be the deadline destination. Celmaru floated up high above the ground, near the clouds....which weren't that high up anyway, so he could see many things all around. Between powerful shivers and his face going numb, Celmaru could see rather odd things in the snow. Among melted pools of snow, there were what looked to be bones, of all kinds of them, even. Surrounding them were pools of blood, presumably thick and rather warm.
"W-What the....?" Celmaru said, rubbing his hands together, "Why a-are those t-there?"
He saw Human remains, mere bones at this point, bundled up in a pool of dark red blood. Nearby were what looked like Saiyan bones as well. Not much different than a Human's, but somewhat larger overall. Some animal bones might've even entered the mix at some point, but Celmaru didn't feel like investigating any further.
"I thought I saw a 'Y' on that bento, but maybe I was wrong about the location..." Celmaru said, putting his hands in his pockets.
Celmaru furrowed his brow in thought, wondering where else it could've been. The clouds above him were shifting in all directions, the wind picking them up and carrying them away. The wind picking up, Celmaru shifted his cape to cover him more, hoping to retain some warmth. Sure, he had a jacket, put it wasn't a winter one, not by a long shot.
Celmaru looked down at the area once more, inspecting the bones and blood below.
"It doesn't look like any animals will be here anytime soon...." Celmaru said, his cape fluttering in the wind.
He continued to survey the Heights for a while, still wondering if he was in the right area. The pools of blood within melted snow were a highly plausible sign of this being the right place, but Celmaru still doubted it in the back of his hybrid mind. Returning from his thoughts, Celmaru took his left hand out of his pocket and simply looked at it. His hand had more wrinkles in it, etched with more character than before. Celmaru had been training as much as his body would let him in the past few days, hoping that the training would be enough. His hand returned to it's respective pocket, allowing Celmaru to then focus his energy to sense any living life forms. Closing his eyes, Celmaru tried to sense anything around him.
"......." Celmaru focused, waiting to pick up something.
But to no avail, Celmaru couldn't sense a thing, nothing was around here.
"Hmm....I guess this would be the wrong place, then." Celmaru said, defeated, "I was hoping to be able to help Ayumu too..."
As Celmaru turned to leave, he saw a glimpse of a familiar head of steel gray hair below him.
"It can't be, I was in the right place?" Celmaru said, descending to the ground, "I thought I would've gone to the wrong place..."

As you started to inspect the multitude of bones, saiyans, changelings, namekian limbs, there were hundreds of diffrent body parts littering this mountain as you would see a single figure standing high above the bones that had littered everything.
Slowly descending like a majestic beast, its body akin to a dragon while simply gazing down upon you.
Letting out a powerfull roar before gritting its teeth.
"FOOLISH FLESH BAG"
Its voice echo'd, The mere sight of this beast infront of you would have made you realize just how wrong this situation was, the blood on his claws and fangs thickly coated, small fragments falling down onto the ground, the height and diffrence in size made him look small at first, untill he slowly continued to close in on you, his tail size easily exceeding 55 metres, while grinning its head.
"I HAVE BEEN AWAKENED BY ONE OF THE TWELVE SPHERES OF NO'L."
Its powerfull would soon start to fluctuate, gathering its power directly infront of you before you would find its power directly aligned with yours, almost like a powerfull being of imitation if then floated infront of you.
Taking deep breaths as the stench of rottin corpses soon came out of its stomach.
You were in for a fight...

Almost offended by Ayumu's first remark, Celmaru didn't know what to say in retort. Although his thoughts were cut short after he saw a massive 180 ft. tall monstrosity formed before him. Celmaru was shocked, an obviously surprised. But then he felt anger, something he didn't expect to feel.
"You were going to fight this yourself!?!" Celmaru screamed, looking down towards Ayumu, "Are you insane?!"
Looking back at the monster, Celmaru's aura ignited, finally in its normal state, flickering like a soft flame. Celmaru grit his teeth in anger towards Ayumu, and in frustration in how annoying this is going to be to fight. His Ki Sense picked up a PL exactly the same as Hana, 13,304. The smell of dead....well, anything permeated throughout the area, penetrating Celmaru's nostrils. Attempting to ignore the smell, Celmaru flew off towards the monster, hoping to fly around it and strike it's neck, then land a blow to it's leg joints, near where a Human's meniscus would be. Celmaru was planning to cripple the monster in any way possible, using any knowledge he about about joints and sensitive areas.
"Hana! If you're awake, this would a great time to show me how strong you've become over the past few days!" Celmaru yelled, flying around the monster.
Celmaru just hoped that the monstrosity would slower than he was...

While you brought yourself to shout, it simply started to grin its teeth, showing a few pieces of wood visible between the large fanged teeth as he spoke.
Rather bluntly while managing to suddenly project its entire body towards you, like a zipping bullet crashing into the ground and tearing away, its entire body attempting to slam you down into the ground while its bottom stomach, a thin slit of white, looked rather fragile.
"FOOLISH HUMAN, IT SEEMS THAT YOU SHALL BE MY THIRD SNACK TODAY"
He shouted, the gem on his forehead giving out a rather interesting pulse as the beast continued to travel forwards towards you!

Seeing the beast zip towards him much faster than Celmaru anticipated he instincively created an afterimage, disappearing as it was made. Celmaru dashed around he monster, seeing a small slice of white on his stomach as he flew past.
"Interesting..." Celmaru thought, still moving quickly, "Let's try that...."
Celmaru became visible, his aura still surrounding him, holding two spheres of Ki in each hand.
"Haaaaahh.....dadadaadadadadaa!" Celmaru said, releasing a volley of ki blasts.
The blasts were aimed for his head, hoping for the beast to turn so he could gut punch it, right where he seemed vulnerable.
"By the way, jokes on you, beast!....I'm not fully Human!" Celmaru yelled at the beast.
Celmaru was trying to think of some strategy to enact in case this one didn't work as well as he hoped....only time will tell.

As you started to dodge rapidly, you could see his eyes starting to trace you before the ki blasts would start to sink into its body before dealing small scratches, more damage on the average warrior in the least that you have seen before it started to show a beautifull red glint in its eyes before letting out a powerfull shout, its massive tail flicking towards you.
"Oh~? So you consider yourself like a twix?, Humans call the double layered creation that is both crunchy and liquid that right?"
Starting to simply shift his gaze, his teeth became more visible before the scales on his body started to shift lightly.
Almost as if out of a certain kind of fear, before a sudden rock like explosion happened underneath you, the dragon flying off towards the mountain, attempting to enter a large hallway.
Yet what was infront of you was a creature with the same power level as you, its face showing you a mouse like figure.
No, It was litterally a human sized mouse with a large brush as a weapon, every single hair a small string like miniature blade as it was spun around in his hand.
He seems to be intent on defeating you... Right here, Right now!

Celmaru was surprised to see the beast fly off towards the nearby mountain....and to see a human-sized mouse that was deadlier than it take it's place. Celmaru shot back down to the ground, ready to face the next Zodiac.
"Well then...." Celmaru said, looking at it's brush weapon, "At least I finally get to use this..."
Celmaru guided his hand towards his belt, grasping a small capsule. Bringing it up to shoulder height, he clicked the trigger, and threw the capsule upward. The capsule popped open, revealing a simple longsword, made of mere steel. The blade was decorated with symbols of it's previous users, including his Grandfather. Its hilt was wrapped in dark leather, etched with wrinkles from its age. Celmaru caught it as it spun downward, grasping the weapon firmly. Celmaru spun it around a few times to get used to the weapon once more, feeling its weight.
"Seems lighter than I remember...." Celmaru said, swinging the sword around, "I guess I have gotten stronger!"
Smirking slightly, Celmaru faced his rodent opponent, holding the longsword at angle, facing the ground. Gripping the sword just a bit tighter, Celmaru charged, hoping he wasn't too rusty.
"Haaaaahh!" Celmaru yelled, stepping forward in a charge.

As you would step forwards, going in for a charging attack, you could see the mouse holding its brush forwards while simply starting to wait for the last moment before attempting to flick the blade between the thousands of metal hairs to crash it into the ground.
"Foolish, One should not use a longsword as a stabbing weapon!"
Starting to suggest you some moves, the mouse simply lifted up his brush while crashing it downwards towards you, cutting through the wind with the many small blades while jumping upwards to perform a spin blade type of attack!
He is starting to teach you blade fighting techniques?! What is this!?

As much as Celmaru didn't want to take sword-fighting lessons from a massive rodent, Celmaru felt that it was correct. Although Celmaru believed that his longsword was more of a stabbing weapon than a slashing one, its been years since he ever used the blade, and even then it was only under specific circumstances. Heeding the rodent's words, Celmaru, now close enough to strike, swiftly sidestepped to his right and went for a swing.
"Haah!" Celmaru exclaimed, throwing the blade toward the rodent's left arm.
Celmaru grasped the blade's hilt with his other hand as he swung, putting greater force behind the attack.

While you brought your blade forwards, the main feature of the longsword would already betray your intentions.
Its weight was spread over the tip to make a downwards arc rather powerfull and create a insane amount of momentum, as the bigger brother the greatsword was entirely based around this concept of smashing down your blade into the opponent.
But as you started a short swing side slash, you could see his body starting to shift backwards in a single flowing move, weaving past your body.
"Use the weight distribution left on both the tip to put strenght behind your blows!"
Starting to move backwards, you could see him swing the brush backwards and then into a overhead downslam once again before starting to step on the shaft of his brush and using his foot to create a sudden side sweep strike towards your legs if you managed to step backwards!
His expression was solemn, his entire conversation with you was short, concrete and brought with precise strikes.
Constantly pressuring you and bringing you into the enemy reach of his weapon, easily able to bring out a long ranged strike or a vicious stabbing strike to completely shred your torso apart.
Yet the air he brought around was rather gentle and even unknowingly not something like a true warrior.
Exactly what was this person attempting to do?, What was his entire goal behind this entire concept that he brought forwards?
A enemy teaching the enemy how to teach to use a longsword? Seriously!

Celmaru was becoming irritated with this rodent, being taught about swordplay from the enemy.....it was almost mocking him. His eyebrows furrowed as he jumped up to prepare another strike.
"Hrrrrr...!" Celmaru growled, clenching his fist, "DA! DA! DA! DA!"
A small volley of Ki Blasts were sent towards the mouse, with Celmaru following shortly after. Celmaru rocketed back down towards the rodent, holding his sword upward behind his right shoulder, preparing to land on his feet if he missed.
"I'm getting real tired of you!" Celmaru yelled, rapidly flying down to Earth.
Celmaru's aura ignited, and a vein appeared on his right hand. His irritation rising further with each remark from the mouse. If Celmaru missed, he would try for an upward strike, hoping to cleave that brush of his in two. If nothing else after that worked, then Celmaru would have to use his blast attack. Celmaru hoped it wouldn't come to that, since it could blow this area to rubble easily, given enough power. He continued to think of possible tactics to use as he flew downward, wondering how the mouse would counterattack this time.

Almost like a frozen abyss infront of you the figure would start to simply wave its brush around in a circle, knowing that you had lost yourself to anger.
A pitifull emotion of his human and saiyan flesh combined together, that he would carry out his will of mere emotional conflict.
"Da, Da, Da, Da?"
He spoke in confusion, a single blast starting to scratch his cheek before starting to weave through the two other ki blasts, one blasting off his rodent like tail cleanly.
"Tired, Of me..."
His eyes showing a single droplet going down before he would simply clench his teeth, that burning light deep within the depths of his heart suddenly turning aflame.
The brush being cleaved in two was a mere known fact to him as he even kicked it towards him, making sure to overwhelm him with the two pieces and millions of blade like hairs raining towards him.
A single bright light starting to form in the center of his heart, a large claymore starting to form, double the saiyan in size with large runes you could not read, but felt the meaning for in your mind were visible.
"FLESHRENDER"
With his eyes glaring towards you while simply smirking.
"It seems that you arent much of a PACIFIST, so let us go for some GENOCIDE Shall we?!"
Jumping forwards and smashing this massive blade downwards to you!

With his sword floating mere centimeters above the ground, knowing his strike was a success, Celmaru looked up to see his opponent's face. What he saw shocked him.....a small droplet, a tear. A simple look of guilt was etched on Celmaru's face, his Human side taking over fully.
"Uh....I-I'm sorry, I didn't expect that you'd....!" Celmaru said, as he watched the Mouse Zodiac turn a full 180 on him.
His simple, teacher-like demeanor vanished, revealing an evil and cruel look, one that desired Celmaru's demise. Celmaru jumped back, holding his blade in front of him. Guilt still was wrought throughout his facial features, especially after hearing the mouse's retort.....and even more so as he saw thousands of blade-like needles shoot towards him.
"Gah!" Celmaru exclaimed as he attempted to dodge the needles, "Why do I keep doing this to people?!"
Celmaru continued to dodge the needles, or at least try to. His cape was getting ripped, punctured, and torn from them all. His sleeves were getting ripped as well. Celmaru's Human feelings were being overcome with guilt for blasting off his tail, and angering him to such an extent. When he thought he was helping one person, he enraged another....
"Why do I always do this...?" Celmaru wondered, still dodging needles, with his cape becoming rag-like from the holes.
As he heard the mouse yell angrily, Celmaru became even more guilty for this scenario, hearing him call for genocide rather than the previous call of pacifism. But when Celmaru saw the rodent jump towards him with a massive blade, easily twice as large as him, he once again tried to dodge what was headed towards him. Celmaru's cape was getting in the way at this point, and he realized that he needed to ditch it soon.

While you started to stutter softly, you would then start to feel his eyes start to open up widely, Blood spilling out of his mouth, simply knowing that he couldn't keep going at this.
He could not keep fighting those that he truely believed in to do good while carrying this blade called the flesh render.
Tears ebbing up in his eyes, blood red tears of somebody who is pushing himself to the very outmost limit.
Slowly starting to reach out his hand, letting go of the weapon that started to turn in small wisps, he would start to loudly throw up blood in the midsts of having a almost dream like stare towards you.
"Mother... I just strived to have mother back"
The bloodied tears on his face simply starting to drench his shirt, continiously streaming down before falling down to the ground, a small pendant opening up softly as you saw a small rodent with a female you knew all too well, holding this small child like humanoid rodent.
Fostering it softly...
Unable to harm this comrade of the one that once gave him life... He rather took his own life to bring out this last favour to the one he held the most dear.
His last words being a rather painfull string of his heart, simply embracing the sky as he spoke "mother..."
Untill the single picture was left behind, Lights flying up into the sky while a mere number counted down in your head.
"Eleven to go"

Seeing the rodent die in front of him, Celmaru's guilt stabbed at is heart now. His eyes watered in sadness as he saw the rodent fall over, as he spoke of his "Mother". Celmaru nearly dropped his blade as the lights appeared, displaying his "success" as he moved forward to the next Zodiac. Celmaru sniffled as he removed his tattered cape, now ruined from the brush's needles. As Celmaru removed it, it fell on a pool of blood, becoming stained from the substance. Wiping his eyes, Celmaru returned his longsword to it's capsule, hoping not to use it for a while, as it now fostered guilty memories.
"Another person to place shame upon me...." Celmaru said with a lump in his throat, looking at the mouse once more, "....This time at my own impatience and anger..."
He noticed the pendant that mouse held, displaying a Mother with her...rather furry child. She seemed familiar, but Celmaru couldn't place it.....she looked like....
Celmaru's train of thought was self-interrupted, returning to the gauntlet of fights that was ahead of him. He knew that he would need to retain his stamina if he were to be able to survive this onslaught, so he sat down in the snow, meditating, regaining his strength as he awaited the next enemy. He wasn't sure what could've been next, as he never studied the Zodiacs of any country or religion. As Celmaru sat there, becoming the slightest bit colder by the second, he wondered many things; if he were to survive this, what would happen then? If he didn't what would happen to Ayumu?....Or even Hana? Many things flooded his mind with potential possibilities or outcomes, making his brain generate a headache.
"......." Celmaru thought, returning to his proper meditation.
