PL: 4500 Medium Weights: ON Weighted PL: 2250 Etoru
The feminine Namekian looked out to the world below them, seeing nothing but clouds and the vague impressions of the ground far below. To consider, that she was now standing atop the highest point in the world, training the next Guru of Namek in the Warrior Caste arts of combat, preparing to head for New Namek to combat a dire threat that approaches it... although by now she feared it may already be there. Lusca tightened her grip on her bo staff as she looked out to the world. She didn't feel ready for this... not one bit. The feminine Namekian Warrior dreaded that she was nowhere near strong enough for the task ahead... and the warriors that the Guardian of Earth had assembled for the task did not ease her mind. One of them was a child for the Grand Elder Guru's sakes! A child... she sighed as she rubbed her forehead, shaking her head at the idea. She was entrusting the safety and security of her recently revived world... to a child. Not to mention the others that had been summoned. A warrior who took one look at her and was instantly a lecherous fool, a Saiyan that had brought his child with him when being summoned for a matter of urgency by their version of a Guru, one of the Arcosian's... Lusca sighed and shook her head. She knew that upon seeing them that the next Guru had had his brief doubts and derision before he quashed them... but she could not do so so easily. Perhaps it was because she was always striving to prove herself as equal a warrior to any other Namekian, or some lingering trait from her sire, but she could not shake the feeling that it was not right. The Guardian of Earth may trust these people implicitly, and whilst yes they did have phenomenal power exceeding her own... there was still that nagging doubt in her mind about their approach to the task ahead. Especially when they couldn't seem to take their eyes off of her, which quite frankly was starting to become quite annoying. She glanced behind her where she could see the child warrior trying to be as subtle as he could be with his glances towards her. Lusca sighed and turned around to face him, walking right towards him before she tried to lightly tap her staff against his head. "It's rude to stare, even more so when you're trying, and failing, to be subtle about it." admonished the feminine Namekian.

Current PL: 100 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Etoru was on the lookout training for the future task ahead. Namek. Sure he didn't enjoy training or fighting as much as he did before...not after what happened...but this time was different. Etoru was well aware he was probably the strongest the team had to offer, even if no one, except maybe Bing, knew that. Maybe most of the warriors going thought Etoru WAS weak, or if not weak, maybe just the weakest on the team. But he wasn't, he was most likely the strongest. Which meant he had to do his part by becoming even stronger so he can keep the group safe! Etoru threw a few jabs and kicks in the air, but was extremely distracted by that Namekian standing near the edge. Soon enough, Etoru realized his training couldn't be at full focus with her around, so he decided to just watch her. Etoru hid behind the pillars and watched curiously. She looked anxious in Etoru's eyes. Maybe even a little angry. That's when she looked towards him. "Uh oh...busted...!" The child thought.
The Namekian lightly tapped her bo staff on his head. Etoru flinched a bit. "Ow...sorry Ms.Stranger...lady..." Etoru frowned a bit. He didn't mean to make her more uneasy than she already is. Etoru smiled a bit. Might as well introduce himself! "Well um, I'm Etoru! And you areeee....?" Etoru gave her a bit too answer but immediately went on to his next assumptions. "Um! Any who! You look really...nervous, or angry, or are you just scared about something? Can you tell me?? I won't tell if it's a secret! Honest!" Etoru gave a friendly toothy grin.

The feminine Namekian sighed as he apologised and introduced himself. "Lusca." she said before he began to ask her some questions about her current state of mind and mood. She rubbed her forehead a little, wondering if she should even share her doubts with this child... but since he was one of those supposedly coming to Namek, then it only seemed fair that she share her concerns, or else they could affect her ability to work with them in the coming battles. She squatted down so that she was at eye level with the child before she spoke.
"I'm concerned about you. And your... team-mates." said Lusca as she tried to figure out the right word for this collection of warriors. "We're going to be heading into a dangerous situation, one that could quite possibly define the future and fate of my people's world... and potentially fighting beside me are a purple skinned pervert who can't keep his eyes off my backside," she said with a slight growl before she collected herself and continued, "and you, a child. There are others who have me concerned, but... the fact that the Guardian of Earth called a child to come fight this threat..." she said, as if she was trying to vocalise her own confusion at the situation.
Lusca sighed before she spoke. "I just don't feel that some of this team are taking this seriously, and I don't want a child's life to be on the line against what we're facing." said the feminine Namekian. "I've got enough to be concerned about with just trying to keep the Dragon Caste Namekian alive so he can accomplish his task, without having to also worry about your safety as well." she said. "The Demon Clan are not exactly known for taking prisoners, or keeping those they do collect in one piece..."

Etoru looked at her blankly as she stated her name. "Oooh...Lusca. Sounds like a kind of sauce I can put on my noodles." Etoru replied gleefully. She seemed rather interesting. After all, Etoru hasn't really met any namekians before. Well, excluding that faint encounter with Ragaki. The child blinked blankly as she knelt down to his height, even if she was still a little taller. She began speaking about her uneasiness and explaining how she felt. "...m-me?" Did he do something wrong...? At this point, Etoru was super confused. That's when she started explaining further which got Etoru to furrow his eyebrows. A child huh...Etoru clenched his fists. "So what if I'm just a kid...I can help too!" Etoru felt irritated that everyone judged him just because of his age. He could do so much more! But no one gives him a chance! Etoru huffed as she seemed to cut him off and continued speaking.
Etoru looked at her with an irritated expression. "Look Ms.Lusca! You don't have to worry about my safety! And I don't know who these Demon Clan bullies are, but I won't let anyone take my life that easily!" Etoru frowned and loosened up. "And...besides. I'm probably the strongest one the team has to offer...which is why I have to train every chance I got! I may not enjoy fighting as much as I used to after...er...nothing...but my point is if I don't train, then I can't help out!" Etoru clenched his fists. "Please Ms.Lusca! You have to believe me! I wanna help out as much as you do! Honest!" Just to prove his point Etoru jumped back a few feet from her and got ready to charge up.
[Dropping Heavy weights((ICly I dont have weights))
Etoru started powering up. His power soared. The tiles under him seemed to crack as well and gusts of wind were being pushed at Lusca. Etoru let out a bit of a roar as his white aura grew. Soon enough, it switched to a golden aura, and his hair and eyes switched colors. His eyes turning gold and his eyes turning teal. His power jumped to 1,909,864. Etoru stopped and took a breath. "Now do you see Ms.Lusca...! Trust me, we won't let your planet's future be destroyed! Not as long as I'm here!" Etoru giggled a bit but tried to keep a straight face. "Because I too lost...a lot...and I was kind of alone for a little...a-and I don't want the people on your planet to feel what I felt..." Etoru gave a faint smile as his hair and eyes started reverting to it's original color. His power dropped to 5,000.

The feminine Namekian frowned at his noodles and sauce comment, moving her staff to lightly smack him on the head again. When he declared that he was the strongest one there, she couldn't help but shake her head and chuckle slightly at the innocence of his mind. "I'm sure you are..." she said gently before he moved back and began to power himself up. Her eyes began to widen as the pressure coming off of him only kept growing and growing. When Lusca thought he couldn't go any much higher than he already was, he broke through the barrier of his power and erupted into a golden light.
Lusca couldn't believe what she was seeing in front of her. She had heard the stories about the Saiyan's legend concerning the Super Saiyan... and had heard that some had been seen fighting during the Saiyan Invasion of Earth, Super Saiyans fighting for both sides of the conflict. And here... here was one of them, standing in front of her... and it was a child?! A child had the power of the ancient Saiyan legends concerning their most powerful warriors? A child had achieved this power?
Her jaw had dropped slightly at the sight of it all, her brain not fully comprehending what she had just witnessed. That or it fully comprehended what she had just seen and was just trying to not simply fry from the sheer weight of it all. Lusca sat there blinking, her mouth opening and closing as if she were trying to form words... but in all honesty, she was still trying to process it all.
A child?!

Etoru smirked cockily but he noticed Lusca wasn't responding. "Um....M-Ms.Lusca...? Are you okay..." Etoru was confused. What's up with her? Etoru slowly walked over to where she was seated. He put his hands on her shoulder. "Are you feeling alright Ms.Lusca....?" Etoru didn't know what else to do. She seemed extremely surprised. "Maybe I over did it...' Etoru blinked blankly.

Lusca quickly shook her head to bring herself back into reality and out of her confused mind as the Super Saiyan child put his hands on her shoulders. "S-Sorry..." she apologised, her eyes still blinking a bit. "I... I just wasn't expecting... well, that." the feminine Namekian said, a faint chuckle escaping her lips at the sheer madness of it all. "I... I'd heard about the Super Saiyan form from people I'd met on the road, and had heard about them during the recent invasion... but..." she said, before she began to take in a slow breath and closing her eyes, trying to collect and compose herself.
As she composed herself, she thought back to how those legends and stories about the Super Saiyans went. As she opened them up she looked to the young warrior in front of her... and found herself asking, "How... how old are you?" He'd mentioned losing a lot himself, and being lonely for a while... after he'd given his answer, she'd find herself doing something she had never done before in her life.
Lusca tried to give Etoru a comforting hug. "So young... to have so much rage and grief..." the feminine Namekian said softly.

Etoru stared at her feeling concerned. She seemed to still be out of it. But then, she snapped back to reality. Etoru smiled now that she was back. "You don't have to say sorry Ms.Lusca!" Etoru giggled. She told the boy how she heard stories of the legendary super saiyan transformation. Etoru listened carefully to the Namekian. Etoru was still wondering why she was so...out of it? Sure it was surprising but...she looks like she almost died...! Etoru couldn't quite grasp that. But then she seemed too look more...worried?
"um...how old am I...? Oh well I'm 6 Ms.Lusca! But I--" And without warning he was brought into a hug. Etoru blinked blankly. His cheeks flustered a bit. He was supposed to be a warrior! He couldn't be getting hugs...! That was out of the question! But, I guess it can't be helped. A lot of people gave Etoru hugs without warning. Hopefully master Bing didn't see it. Although, Etoru couldn't lie, it was comforting. Etoru realized her reasons for hugging him were everything he's went through. "Thanks Ms.Lusca..." Etoru said with a faint smile. He pushed away lightly. "So..what exactly is going on at planet Namek...? I mean...it's best if I knew too so I can help out! I wanna prove myself a hero Ms.Lusca...!" Etoru said with a smile.

"Well," said Lusca as the little Super Saiyan asked her what was going on, "as the Guardian of Earth Bing explained the other day, Namek is under threat by the Demon Clan." she said. For a moment she was silent before she realised that perhaps some further explanation was required. "Us Namekians are generally divided into a caste system. Helix Crust is a Dragon Caste, and they're generally our leaders and elders, since they tend to live for longer than any of us." she said, forming Ki in one hand to resemble a draconic icon at the tip of one finger.
She raised another finger, this one's ki took on the shape of a fist. "Then there are those like myself, who are of the Warrior Caste. We serve as the protectors for our people and our leaders. It's what we are born for, what we are trained for." explained Lusca. "Then there are the general population of Namekians, who may train under either caste to become them if they so wished, or due whatever the equivalent for non-fighters do on Earth." she said. She then raised a third finger, atop this one the ki took on a sinister aspect.
"Then there are the Demon Caste Namekians... they desire nothing more than power, and allow their darker sides to rule them. They also twist and mutate their bodies to further their combative goals and desires, sporting fins and spikes all over themselves. Some have even been so mutated that they don't even resemble Namekians any more." said Lusca with a tinge of anger in her voice as she spoke.
She hung her head, looking aside. "There have been times I've been compared to the Demon Caste... I am, to my knowledge, the only Namekian that looks like this..." she confided, clenching her fist and snuffing out the ki forms she had manipulated at her finger tips.

Etoru who was in his base form stared at Lusca curiously. He really wanted to understand what issues were going on at Namek. Sure Bing explained it but, she can go more in depth. Etoru stared at her with his mouth gaped open slightly. Then she was talking about that Guru guy. Etoru looked at her blankly. When she raised her finger and used ki to symbolize a dragon Etoru's eyes sparkled in amazement. "Whoaaa...that's so coool!" Etoru listened intently. Maybe he can gather some useful information! That would be quite handy later on! Then she went on to talk about herself and her caste. The warrior caste. "Whoa...that's! So! Cool! So you're like an ultra super duper cool guardian?? Oh! SO this isn't your full power?! YOU MUST BE LIKE A...SUPER NAMEKIAN! Whoa! You must be like a bazzilion times stronger than me! Who am I kidding! A bazzilion times stronger than Master Bing! Right?!?!" Etoru said gleefully. Little did he know, what she showed now was only half of her full power, which meant she wasn't exactly very powerful. Hopefully, he didn't hurt her self esteem.
Then she put up a third finger. It looked pretty sinister and evil. Etoru stared at it frowning. She began explaining how power hungry these Demon Caste Namekians were. Then she mentioned how they let their bodies mutate. "M-m-mutate...? L-like...they become m-monsters??" Etoru gulped. Sure he may be super strong, but after all, he still was a child. An easily scared one for that matter. Then she looked a bit depressed and hung her head explaining how she was compared to Demon Castes. Etoru frowned. "Don't feel sad Ms.Lusca! I've been compared to Saiyans plenty of times...oh um...I'm only...half saiyan. I don't like Saiyans very much, all the Saiyans I know are Hybreads." Of course, by now, Etoru still hasn't learned how to pronounce it. "And...I've also been compared to...um...a monster..." Etoru pouted. All those events that went by. Etoru clenched his fists as he fought back tears. "Cause...Ms.Maeve told me you shouldn't judge people by what they are...but who they are...but still...I think who I am is a monster after...--" Etoru stopped himself. He was looking down the whole time.
((He's in his base form btw))

((I know he is even though you're not in the form, you can still get referred to as a Super Saiyan )) Lusca shook her head, finding herself smiling at his enthusiasm however wrong he was despite herself, even though she didn't feel like smiling much. "I'm afraid not." she said. "Whilst yes I'm wearing weighted clothing... my power is only double what you can sense right now." explained the feminine Namekian. "I do have a transformation of my own... but it wouldn't get me near the strength I truly need to perform my duties." she said, rolling her eyes somewhat and sighing. "And I doubt I'd use it often since I find it to be somewhat... cumbersome." said Lusca. When he spoke about himself being compared to other Saiyans and monsters, she went in to give him another small hug, this time combined with some hair ruffling. "We all have things in the past we're not proud of... and I've come to terms with the thought that many of my people would see me in the same view as the Demon Caste because of my differences..." said the feminine Namekian soothingly. "That's why I keep training... that's why I'm so concerned with trying to keep Helix safe when we're on Namek... to prove to not only them that I am a Warrior, but to also myself... that I'm not a power hungry creature." she said, before she tried to tilt Etoru's head up to look at her face. "And, I can tell you've been down that road... but you've turned back from it. You're learning from it." said Lusca. "If you still think you're a monster, then work to right the wrongs you've done in order to prove you're not. Not for the sake of those around you, but for your own peace of mind... besides," she said with a slight smile, "would a monster be so willing to go to a distant world, to try and protect people he'd never met from an evil force he's never faced before?" the feminine Namekian asked the little Super Saiyan child.

Lusca brought Etoru into another hug after he explained he'd been compared to monsters. Etoru frowned as she hugged him, actually letting a few tears loose. They rolled down his cheeks as he sniffled. She explained that she's been through what Etoru's been through as well. She went on to talk about how she's fixing those problems now. Etoru frowned as tears rolled down his cheeks. "Y-yeah! But don't you get it! That IS my problem! If I train and get stronger...I'm gonna have more power to hurt more people! T-That's why I don't wanna train...!" Etoru sniffled. Then she told him that he's learning from his mistakes which didn't really change his mood much. But what did was when she asked if a monster would go to a distant planet to fight an unknown force for the sake of others. Etoru sniffled and smiled a bit as he wiped his eyes with his forearm. "...no...I guess not..." Well...he was feeling a bit better. But still, Etoru couldn't seem to enjoy fighting as much as he did before.
Then it hit him. Something totally off topic...but...it was so interesting! Etoru couldn't just let it go...! Etoru looked at Lusca curiously for a moment with big, blank innocent eyes. After a few moments past, a grin grew on his face. "You said you have a transformation...riiiiight?" Etoru moved closer to her. "Can you show it too me?!" Etoru gripped her shirt gently looking up at her face with a bright smile. "Please please!!! It'll mean the world! I wanna see it!! Come on Ms.Luscaaaa!" Hopefully she would agree to his request. Especially with all that begging going around, Etoru had a good chance she'd say yes!

As Etoru sniffed and mentioned why he didn't want to train, the feminine Namekian went to lightly flick his forehead with her finger. "Then you're allowing your past to control your future." she said quite sternly. "If you are always afraid of your own power, then you can't use it properly to help those you want to now can you?" Lusca asked him, sighing a little. "What's done is done. There's nothing that can be done to change the past. What you can do though," she said, as she went to boop his nose, "is change the future. By learning from the past, and growing from those lessons into a better person." said the feminine Namekian.
And then the fact that this young warrior was a child came right back to the forefront as he began begging to see her transform into her Great Namek state. The way he pleaded with her and looked up at her, she couldn't help but chuckle a little. "Alright, alright... fair's fair I guess." Lusca said as she stood up. "But I'm going to need some room. I doubt Earth's Guardian would very much appreciate needing to rebuild his house." she said as she walked away from the building, and towards the far more open area of the Lookout.
Lusca gave the area a quick look around, making sure that there was nobody in the way who could accidentally get harmed from this. Seeing that the coast was clear, she took in a slow breath and began to concentrate her energies throughout her body. She could feel her power coiling around inside of her like a snake, and slowly she let it flow into her flesh, allowing it to grow. With each passing breath she took, her body (and thankfully clothes along with her) began to expand and grow, her entire being stretching out with each passing second. Eventually she reached a colossal height, and looked down to the Lookout below. She didn't dare speak, not at this great height she now found herself at.
She could find herself practically staring out at the horizon, witnessing the curvature of the planet and the border between it and the universe beyond. Lusca let out her breath, and soon her body began to shrink back down to its normal size and stature. She shook her head as she returned back to her original state, and looked over towards Etoru. "I told you I'd need some room, and it was a tad cumbersome." said the feminine Namekian with a smile.
Briefly transformed into Great Namek!

"Ow..." Etoru mumbled has he rubbed his forehead after Lusca flicked it. Then she mentioned that he was allowing his past to control his future which caused him to frown and think about it for a second. He understood completely. It's just he couldn't believe he let it get to him that easily. Then she mentioned how he would be able to properly help people if he was to afraid of his own abilities. "...I..." She cut him off, not like Etoru had anything to say since she was most definitely right. Then she said what's done is done and he couldn't do anything to change the past. Etoru sighed sadly and looked down. However, he jerked his head up fast when she told him there was another way. Learning from your mistakes. She booped his nose and Etoru giggled gleefully. Etoru might just get back to martial arts! She certainly cheered him up. "Thanks Ms.Lusca!"
That's when Etoru began begging Lusca non stop to show him the great Namek form. Etoru continued begging and pleading, tugging her shirt until she finally accepted. Etoru's eyes widened happily. Etoru watched her walk towards the center of the lookout. "This is gonna be so cooooool..." Etoru mumbled to himself. Suddenly, he felt a surge of energy multiply. Etoru watched as she slowly grew in height. Etoru's eyes sparkled in amazement. "Awesome!!!" He called out. Finally she was at her full height. She was huge! Etoru floated towards her face, hugged her nose playfully, and landed on her head. She then started to revert to size, but of course, Etoru stayed on her head in a sitting position smiling. His tail drooped over her back. "That was so cool Ms.Lusca...! And um what's com...comber..blegh. Camersam?" Etoru blinked blankly. Of course he was referring to cumbersome, just couldn't pronounce it right.

Lusca raised an eyebrow at the Saiyan child that was currently sitting on her head, even though she was no longer in her Great Namek form. His tail dripping down her back was admittedly becoming somewhat ticklish. "Glad you enjoyed it." she said, raising an eyebrow as he tried to pronounce the word. "Cumbersome." said the feminine Namekian, sounding it out for him along the way. She began to walk back towards the palace temple building, speaking as she did. "Basically it means clumsy, or difficult to move with." Lusca explained.
"Especially in crowded or small locations. It also makes certain techniques difficult or outright impossible to pull off without some form of collateral damage." said the feminine Namekian. "Personally, I prefer to only use it against similarly sized opponents in a wide enough location for such a fight to even take place, like a desert or open field away from any civilisation." Lusca said, slowly sitting down so as to not disturb her new hat from his resting place.
