A hybrid shot through the sky like a jet; faster than a jet, really. The hybrid's power had exponentially escalated over the past few weeks, to even his surprise. The power was almost comforting, knowing that he'd be able to protect those he loves with it. In any case, the hybrid warrior Celmaru Waterfield, and his partner, Phae Waterfield were slicing through the blue sky like a bullet. They both had the intention to meet a friend of theirs; Walker. Celmaru had been able to sense the tree's power from across the Earth, either that be from his potent ability, or the raw Ki of the tree-man himself. Squinting to keep the wind out of his eyes, the hybrid began flying over a familiar forest; where he first met Walker, the Fukurou Forest. Walker's signature was creeping ever closer, and eventually the tree's giant castle in the sky came into immediate view. From afar, Celmaru called out to his mentor, revealing his presence before he landed.
"Walker! Are you there, sir?"
"You can sense him, Celmaru."
Phae spoke out to him as he finished, reminding him of his ability. A small smile crept across his face as he replied.
"I know, but maybe he's currently busy...I'd just like to be sure of my arrival before I land."
"Ah, please proceed."
The hybrid began to descend into the courtyard of the magical ship, landing firmly on his feet. Another Ki signature was picked up mentally, and the feeling was similar to the hybrid's. Celmaru's Father, Toma "Mato" Waterfield, was apparently still upon the Cathedral Gaea. The hybrid's eyebrows furrowed after sensing his Father's Ki....and Phae noticed it immediately as her husband spoke.
"Father is still here, huh?"
"Might he still be recovering?"
"A Saiyan's recovery time is faster than a few weeks, Phae."
"...Is he still bothered by your sudden strength?"
"Possibly...I'll speak to him later....heavily suppressed."
Looking around the courtyard, nature surrounded the couple. Cobblestones and trees, bushes, and flowers, anything a typical garden may include. Celmaru was impressed that Walker could keep everything in such a nice condition. The hybrid folded his arms as he continued to look about, curious of what else his mentor's ship held. Several birds were even attracted to the courtyard's natural elements, chirping loudly as they landed within the nearby trees. Phae kept her arms tightly wrapped around her husband, like usual, taking in the lovely sight with Celmaru. A soft smile formed upon her lips, her time being well spent by her opinion. Walker's Ki felt closer than ever, and Celmaru took note of it as he turned away from the courtyard's sights. Today will hopefully go better for Celmaru, however a surprise was waiting him later that day.

Within the Cathedral, Walker bustled about, moving various books and shelves in the library he was assembling. He had left Toma upstairs in the room he had been assigned, choosing to mostly ignore the Saiyan. It was the father of someone he considered a student, so he would allow him to stay. Besides, aside from his recent creations, the Cathedral was fairly empty, honestly. It was a bit depressing. Glancing upwards, he noted a power level approaching, and quickly recognized the two powers flying closely together. Celmaru and Phae, hmmm? Well then, it was likely time for more training.
The Half-Saiyan had been growing by leaps and bounds, his power increasing each time Walker saw him. It was fairly amazing, actually, and the tree suspected that the boy was merely catching up after a long period of not believing in himself. Perhaps he would even reach the level so many others had reached in this Era. Kaula was capable of it, after all, and she was half-Saiyan as well.
Moving upstairs, Walker paused near the landing. Sending a quick message via Telepathy to Toma, he continued his walk. "Your son has arrived." He hated to admit it, but there was still some hope that the grouchy man would shape up and actually own up to his actions regarding his child. It would be so much easier to just condemn the Saiyan, but still. When had he ever done things the easy way? Hell, he had tried to take the rage of the entire Saiyan Solar Empire on his back just to slow down their War Machine, and the plan he was considering to aid Rei.... no, the Easy Way was not his way.
Exiting into the courtyard, he bowed to Celmaru and Phae, hands folded behind his back as per his usual stance. "It's good to see you, Celmaru. I hope the day finds you well." He glanced at the two, noting the closeness with which Phae held him, and the lessened awkwardness Celmaru seemed to be showing. Apparently, he had indeed grown closer to his wife. That was good to know, for multiple reasons. The tree had been working on hopefully a more streamlined form for Phae, should she ever request it.
His own children's creation followed a similar vein, and the parallel project had been an interesting distraction. Hopefully it wouldn't be necessary any time soon, though. At best, he'd only be able to give her another body like her current one, but with a more concerted form to possess. It was entirely possible there'd be no real change at all. Still, Loccus had seemed interested, so perhaps it was more spiritually sensitive or something?
"Well, I hope you're ready for training. You've grown exponentially since we began, though I can't claim it's my influence, at least not entirely. I'm extremely impressed, Celmaru." He chuckled, pulling his hood back and letting the sun shine down on his face. It was a beautiful day outside, really. The birds were singing, his flowers blooming in their beds. Placing his seldom used sword to the side, the tree cracked his neck a few times, exhaling. "Oh, by the way. Your father is still here." He shrugged. "Not sure what you want to do about him."

Within Walker's ship, Mato shifted within his bed, grumbling. He was still sleeping, and didn't like being awoken by anyone besides Celia. Flipping over to his back, the Saiyan warrior sat up, the bags under his eyes accumulating from the long nights he spent awake. Rubbing his head, Mato shifted over to the side of the bed, and slowly began to equip his standard SSE battle armor.
"That kid is back? I guess it'll be nice to see him again..."
The proud warrior sat upon the bed, weighing his options; he could either stay out of his child's way, or show up once more, possibly ruining his day. Mato himself could admit that he acted out of turn the last time Celmaru was here, but even then, the hybrid surpassed him; he could handle himself now. Stomping his boots into place, the Saiyan stood up, walking out into the hallway. Mato huffed, know that Celmaru wouldn't be happy to see his pathetic man of a Father, sighing at the thought, he trudged down the hallway, hoping to find an exit.
* * *
Within the courtyard, Celmaru had seen Walker step out into the light, revealing himself to his student. He began the conversation with a polite gesture and a simple greeting. Celmaru scratched his head sheepishly after hearing Walker's innocent question.
"Er...Today hasn't been the greatest, but I can't do much about it...really..."
"They were being rude again..."
"Its not their fault....they're just paranoid of the Saiyans on Earth..."
"You're still a victim of their rash behavior!"
Phae seemed intent on winning this minor argument, but Celmaru was intending on defending the Earthlings...despite their flaws. Unfortunately, Celmaru can't keep up with Phae's argument, and shook his head in defeat. Sighing, he turned back to Walker to continue their conversation.
"I'm doing alright, regardless...so don't worry."
The hybrid lowered his hand as Walker continued to speak, apparently the tree-man had planned to continue with their training. Celmaru's facial expression held minor surprise for a mere moment before shifting into a battle-ready expression. Celmaru held a tiny surprise for his mentor, and he was excited to use it once they began. A small smirk crept up his face, and despite the fact that Celmaru was still weaker than Walker, he knew that he had a much better chance. Phae slid off her husband's back softly, elegantly floating mere inches above the cobblestones they stood upon. Walker kept on speaking, however, and complimented Celmaru's exponential power increase. Another sheepish look formed on the hybrid's face, even now he was unused to praise. Shaking his head once again to shift his focus away from Walker speech as he began to gather his energy. Unfortunately, his actions were interrupted by the tree-man once again, as he mentione dhis Father's presence on the ship. Shrugging, Celmaru replied bluntly.
"I've noticed....I hope to talk to him later today, if you would allow me to."
"I'm sure he would, that man needs another speaking-to."
"Don't be so hard on him..."
Celmaru dismissed the brief argument before it could escalate, and faced his mentor once more. Another smirk formed upon his lips, and his energy began to gather within him.
"So, shall we begin? Or will we change locations?"

Nodding, Walker rose up a bit, floating above the surface of the courtyard. "Feel free. He is your father, after all. I would not exactly prevent you from speaking to him." Well, perhaps if he thought Celmaru or his father were going to hurt one another, but that was probably best not to mention. Cracking his neck in a long, slow motion, he considered this for a moment. If they were going to be fighting.... Yes.
"I think we should take this to the open sky. It would be best not to destroy anything around here." Rising upwards rapidly, he arced into the sky, a glowing trail of Ki following him for a second. As he leveled out, he took a moment to think. What to do... He would start out at around Celmaru's level, perhaps a bit higher. From what he understood, Saiyans increased in power under stress. This was true of all fighters, in a sense, but specific transformations seemed to require a "Push". He had unlocked his own change via anger and a mental breaking point, and Toma had used to Pendulum Room to transform into a Super Saiyan via some unknown stress.
Celmaru was at about Toma's Level, if perhaps a little lower. It seemed likely he was ready, but if the Saiyans were any indication, the change would be violent. Musing to himself, it only took a minor bit of consideration to make up his mind. Now would be be the best time to spark the Half-Saiyan's next level. If it was elsewhere, it could be in a more desperate situation. That could have potentially tragic consequences, especially with the far weaker Phae beside him. Perhaps there was an idea there. For now, however, it would do to merely test his might.
Setting his Ki to 450,000, Walker flexed slowly, letting his aura stabilize as Celmaru caught up. Once the Saiyan had, he nodded. "Phae, you might want to step back a bit. Right then, Celmaru.... Come at me. I want to see just how much you've grown." He moved his stance, body facing sideways and limbs extended. One fist was held near the side of his face, the other almost fully out, but the arm bent. "You are not the only one who has improved, but you have gone from one of many to one of the few. Be proud of your power... and let it BURN!" With that call, he let his Ki flare for battle, still suppressed to allow the Saiyan a fair chance before pushing it up further.

Celmaru nodded, agreeing to Walker's suggestion of taking this to the open air. The hybrid's aura surged to life around him, enveloping him as always. Phae had already taken to the sky before them both, but Walker immediately caught up -and therefore passed- Phae in an instant. His trail of Ki appearing and slowly fading behind the tree, Celmaru shot off along with him, leaving the courtyard and its sights below them. The two ceased their upwards flight just below the clouds, the air becoming noticeably thinner at this great height. The hybrid stood within the thin air, analyzing his mentor to take sight of the first move; however, it seemed that the tree was thinking of something besides the spar at hand. Walker's Ki suddenly had an influx, rising to a level 450,000. Celmaru wasn't concerned, however. He had his ace in the hole, just so he'd be able to keep up with Walker in some form; his Trained Potential. Subtly smirking, the hybrid called out to Walker, confident that he'd be able to be level with him in some way today.
"Hey, Walker! I do thank you for complimenting my sudden rise in power, but I'm still suppressing my power...in a certain way, that is..."
Phae had caught up to them both earlier, and was floating a few feet above her husband, her hair scraping the clouds. A gentle smile stretched across her lips, knowing what her husband had in store. The seaweed woman was told to step back, and she, surprisingly enough, complied willingly. Floating back a few more feet, she happily added before stopping;
"I'll respect your space during this spar.....but I demand a kiss when you're done~!"
Celmaru could only blush softly as she exclaimed her bold demand, a hint of awkwardness still left within the hybrid. He looked back towards her, watching her smile with a certain glee. Sighing, he turned away from Phae, preparing his minor power enhancement. Lifting his arms up slowly, he left his hand limp at their sockets. As his arms reached their preferred angle, Celmaru flung his forearms back down to his waist, his hands clenching. Bending his arms at their respective elbows, Celmaru's entire body tensed up before releasing its hidden power.
"HAAAAAAAAAGH!"
The hybrid's aura exploded around him, turning into a pearly white. Celmaru's power increased fourfold, almost reaching Walker's current power. The heat within his body increased, his electric potential increasing along with his Ki. Relaxing his body to an extent, Celmaru looked towards his mentor, humbly smiling.
"This is my Potential.....I trained it the other day; and I'm quite proud of the results!"
The hybrid noticed that he shook a few clouds away from him as he unleashed his Potential, which made him smile a tiny bit; he was powerful enough to throw clouds away from him with just his Ki rising. Lowering into his fighting stance, Celmaru prepared for an interesting sparring match with Walker; a content smile still placed upon his facial expression. Hearing Walker speak about allowing Celmaru the first move simply reminded him of Kazar Winters, the other hybrid that wasted his energy on the first assault. The hybrid's smile disappeared, forcing himself to ensure that problem from never occurring during this match. His mentor didn't cease his speech, however, and told Celmaru to show how much he has grown.
"I'm sure you can tell for yourself, Walker, but I'd like to show my power to you as well."
The hybrid was about to act, but Walker had spoke of how; although Celmaru himself wasn't the only one that improved; he was now one of the few with such power. Sighing, the hybrid replied humbly.
"I'm nothing special, Walker. I'm just trying to protect those I love with the best of my ability....er...like Phae for example..."
"I heard that~!"
Celmaru had another hue of red form upon his face, his embarrassment returning. His sheepish expression said it all to anyone that could see him, and anyone that knew both Celmaru and Phae would know why he had that kind of expression. Violently shaking his head to clear his thoughts of Phae, Celmaru solidified his stance, making sure that he was ready for the spar to start. Walker called for battle, and Celmaru could only comply to his demand. The fire in the hybrid's eye lit up with anticipation, and Celmaru's Saiyan side began to show once more.
"Here are the results of my training, Walker!"
Celmaru dashed forwards, still keeping his power in check. Vanishing into the open air, he reappeared moments later behind Walker, pulling back his fist for a beginning strike. If he were to be blocked, or if his action were to be forcefully ceased, Celmaru would try to escape and send a barrage of Ki blasts towards the tree-man. If push came to shove, the hybrid would bring out the Great Blast Crash, or even his Afterimage, like always. Celmaru was finally able to fight after meeting Kazar!

As the half-Saiyan rushed towards him, Walker couldn't help but feel his excitement build. Celmaru was equal in power to him like this, even suppressed to 1/4th as he was. The growth of the Half-Saiyan had been greater than he thought. Yes, if he was already this capable... he must be ready. Throwing his arm around, Walker met Celmaru's punch with one of his own, the two fists colliding with a crack like a sonic boom. The air around them was thrust outwards, leaving the clouds spiraling around them. Leaping back and bracing himself against the air, the tree laughed.
"That is more like it! You've come a long way.... but thing about battle... the fight NEVER ends!" As the barrage of Ki blasts arced toward him, the tree sped towards them,diving at the last second and then popping back up, leg snapping towards Celmaru with a kick. Pressing the attack, Walker moved forward, sending snap kicks in his student's direction. Still on guard for any new, unusual techniques that might have been thought up, Walker risked a momentary glance towards Phae.
He may not have ears, but he could still hear just fine. Somehow. He wasn't actually clear on how that worked, exactly, but apparently it did? Presumably the answer was just "Magic", but it still bothered him a bit. Regardless of all that, what Celmaru had said, done, and expressed when the fight started was a major change from before. He was still clearly embarrassed, but he had actually begun to express caring for the uniquely created spirit who had married him, Phae. It was quite adorable, but it also provided an opportunity, in a sense.
Doing his best to dodge Celmaru's attacks, Walker slowly increased his Ki, power rising to nearly 600,000. He would need the extra leeway if he was going to properly set this up. For now, however, he focused on the fight with Celmaru. Bringing his fists into a new position, the tree began to send out rapid jabs, the blows cracking outward towards him. "Come on, come on. I know you can bring greater power. Hold nothing back." Flying straight up, he focused his energy around himself and began to charge his attack.
Crimson energy began to gather from the air, long swaths of power coalescing out of the ether and swirling together. At first, it just appeared to be a typical Ki attack. However, anyone with ki sense would be able to tell almost immediately that something was deeply off. For one, it wasn't Ki that was being gathered, although the energy was able to be sensed. This wasn't energy, however. It was magic. As to the specific type of magic, that became more than clear a moment later.
The energy gathered into an orb, and from the momentarily circular surface, burning tendrils erupted. The solar hellfire, brought about by sorcery, burned in the center of his palms, as he brought his hands down, pressing them together and grasping hold of the energy. With a manic gleam in his eye, Walker thrust his hand forward, fingers splaying wide as he let the orb go. With a roar of unleashed energy, the fire spat forth in a great red gout, burning through the air towards Celmaru. As it left his hand, Walker called out it's name. "RED SUN BREAKER!"
Taking a pause as he watched for Celmaru's response, the tree took a moment. How to do this... first off, he would obviously need some help. His mind reached out, taking hold of the familiar spirit's energy. /Phae, if we can speak privately for a moment... I believe I can help Celmaru ascend to become even stronger, but I will need your assistance. You saw what happened with me upon our first meeting... the circumstances are similar, but he will need more of a push./ Obviously, he wasn't going to actually kill her, but perhaps setting up a faked death would be sufficient. The idea of putting that kind of stress on his student was painful, but the idea of leaving such a change to some random battle was a bit ridiculous. It was far better to train such power in advance.

Celmaru was busy throw all that he's got at Walker, while keeping his blasts under his belt, in a sense. The hybrid would only use his blasts if he had to, or if the situation escalated more than it should. Celmaru's arms were a blur in the sky as he began an offensive assault upon his mentor, leaving him little room to issue a counterattack. The tree-man made a few cautious glances at Phae, which caused the hybrid's hidden overprotective nature to be subtly revealed. However, Celmaru would be unable to keep Walker's attention to himself for this spar; as the tree's power was slowly rising. Placing itself at a much higher level compared to Celmaru's Trained Potential. The hybrid backed off as Walker began to dodge most, if not all, of the punches that were thrown.
"Six-hundred thousand?! Walker, I understand that you realize my growth, but I can't match that-!"
Celmaru began to be pelted with Walker's jabs, his body jerking about with each impact. Small ripples blasting away from the hybrid's body like tiny shockwaves. The power of his superior was assaulting him with much greater intensity than the hybrid could have ever hoped to achieve. Celmaru's face contorted with pain as he took all of the blows, scratches from Walker's wooden frame appearing already. His chest, his stomach, abdomen, waist, thighs, and even his cheeks took some sort of jab directly. This sparring match was already shifting in Walker's favor; unfortunately it was sooner than the hybrid had hoped. The hybrid's mentor taunted at him, saying that he surely had more power than this. Slightly beaten, irritated, and with his minor confidence enhancement fading, Celmaru's replied to his mentor's taunt.
"Urgh....This...is my....unleashed potential, Walker...I doubt I can go past this..."
The hybrid considered bringing out his signature blast already, but unfortunately he didn't have much time to think about it, as Walker was preparing a blast of his own. It had a strange feeling to it; as if it wasn't Ki, rather something else. Brushing his hand across his mouth to wipe away any excess substances, specifically blood, if any, Celmaru stubbornly complied to his mentor's indirect challenge. A Great Blast Crash formed in the hybrid's hand, glowing with a bright red light, enveloped in white Ki. Celmaru thrust it forwards, his blast combining with Walker's. The impact was staggering to the hybrid's arm, forcing his joints together forcefully, straining his arm. Veins appeared all over Celmaru's arm, as he wasn't used to wielding such power, and fighting against such greater power, all at once. The clash of energy sparked around the hybrid, and he grit his teeth to keep himself from losing his focus. Grunts were audible from Celmaru as he began to pour more energy into his blast, it slowly beginning to struggle against the hybrid and its opposing technique.
Eventually, the Great Blast Crash evolved once more, changing into a magnificent sphere of blazing fire; the Great Kaiser Crash. The sudden increase of Ki output began to force Walker's attack away from Celmaru, and the struggle was won. The upgraded blast had followed the momentum of Walker's Red Sun Breaker, and flew out of his hand, flinging itself towards the tree-man. Celmaru didn't intend for this to occur, but kept his mouth shut; as it was the only likely way for Walker to take a hit at this point. Meanwhile, Phae was speaking to Walker telepathically, being informed of the three's plans.
'Ah, well...if you believe Celmaru can become stronger, than I'm willing to help you...he always pushes himself so much....'
Phae pondered over her husband's training ethic; pushing himself over his limits each day to protect those he loves. As much as Phae appreciated his straightforward goals, she knew it may also run him into the ground again like before; when Celmaru nearly stunted his Potential trying to raise it. Dismissing her thoughts, Phae continued her reply.
'In any regard, I'm willing to help, but I must ask of you what you might do to achieve this goal. I don't want anyone to die, or for Celmaru to become so regretfully enraged again...'
Phae put a finger to her cheek, wondering what Walker had in store for her husband....only time will tell.

As he launched his attack, the tree could sense Celmaru's energy gathering. It was much like his attack from before, when they had first met. This one, however, was far stronger than the original version. As the energy fired off, Walker could already tell where this was going to go. Some people might be scared, or unnerved, or have tried to dodge. Instead, the tree laughed, the battle-lust and pride evident. Celmaru had truly grown, if he was now capable of this. Before, one of his fully charged attacks wouldn't even have been a tenth of Walker's Power Level. Now, his blast was overwhelming the tree's own.
As the diminished Great Kaiser Crash spun forth, the tree crossed his arms, attempting to lessen the blow somewhat. It didn't really matter, though, and he knew that. With a smashing sound, the energy ball bowled into him, hitting his guard and exploding with tremendous force. Walker was thrown backwards, spiraling through the air for a second before his control over his flight reasserted itself. Righting his body relative to Celmaru, the tree wiped some soot from his face and chuckled. "There we are, Celmaru! I knew you could do it." He hadn't doubted for a second, even if it wasn't quite practical. He may not be able to beat his teacher in a straight fight, and yet that wasn't the point, was it? The point was to keep improving, even if it was slow, drudging work.
"I may be beyond the reach of your trained potential, Celmaru, but I would ask you to give me some credit, at least." Returning to view, the tree wreathed himself in Ki once more, energy crackling about him. "If I was merely going to taunt your current level, I could easily go full power. No, this is perhaps 150% of your current level. A hurdle? Oh, most certainly." Spreading his hands, the tree gestured to himself. "But is it an insurmountable one? NO!" Fists clenching, he brought them up in a boxer position, glowing eyes narrowed.
"It is teasing you, waving a flag just above your grasp, daring you to push beyond your limits. You may say that you cannot do such a thing right now, but I don't believe that." Nodding at the sun, he chuckled again, but it wasn't a cruel laugh. It was the chuckle a joyful parent gives when they see a child riding a bike, or a scientist lets loose when a colleague solves a difficult problem. It was proud, unmistakably. "Not long ago, you could barely manage 100,000 in a moment of stress. Now look at you. You've come so far, to a place that would have been unimaginable not long before! So, in that case... We will continue to push the limit!"
Clapping his hands together, hard, Walker let a wave of Ki smash through the air, following the wave of force and returning to the melee. On closer inspection, it was clear he had actually taken damage from the attack Celmaru had fired. Not a lot, but a noticeable amount at least. He wasn't increasing his Ki just yet, however. It would take a bit more time. Hopefully, Celmaru would be able to move upwards a bit more before he tried to trigger him, but perhaps not. Still, no sense in not trying.
Mentally contacting Phae once more, he thought for a moment before answering. This would be hard to phrase properly. "Avoiding Rage, especially as a fighter, is nearly impossible. Anger fuels so many things, and Saiyans seem to run on the stuff. However, in order to control it, one must first work past it." He began to throw more blows towards Celmaru, leaving small openings and brief mistakes as best he could, hoping the Saiyan would notice and properly capitalize. It wasn't pandering, not much anyway. The difference might be fair, but it wasn't enough that he could be completely careless against the sparring partner.
"From what I can gather, Sayians and Half-Saiyans like my friend Kaula gain the legendary transformation of their race via a moment of intense emotional outpouring, typically anger. This will happen eventually, unless they stop fighting, and I doubt Celmaru will do that." Dodging back for a second, he spun to the side, trying to speak through the combination of his attacks, Celmaru's response, and so forth. It wasn't easy.
"My goal is to trigger this now, and give him a chance to control it once he's gotten past that initial barrier. It's either that, or risk him going berserk at some unknown point in the future. Believe me when I say it's a serious concern. Super Saiyans typically increase their power by at least tenfold. In order to do this, however, I'll need your help." He wasn't quite getting to the point, but perhaps Phae would determine his intent before he did. It was a bit of an awkward question to ask. Can you fake your death so your husband can go into a rage and grow golden hair was a bit of an unusual thing to come up.

Celmaru pursed his lips together after seeing Walker take his blast, almost cleanly. Clenching his fists, the hybrid listened to his mentor as he spoke of how he was able to unleash his power, showing it to the tree-man. He continued to go on about how Celmaru was still simply weaker than Walker by all aspects, despite his tremendous growth. A spark of irritation lit within the hybrid becoming slightly irked by the sentient tree. Walker spoke of how he must be given some credit, and that taunting the hybrid and his Ki would be as simple as going full power. More ire spurred within Celmaru, his eyebrows furrowing at the sound of his words. Pointing to his face, the hybrid spoke with little emotion, almost in an insensitive tone.
"This scar upon my face...is a reminder that I'll always be weaker than I'd prefer....that I'm too frail and helpless against those who are miles ahead of me...including you, Walker. You, among other things, are a reminder; I'm still too inexperienced and weak to defend this planet, and those who accept me upon it."
Mental images swept through his mind as he spoke, thinking of his Mother, Father, Ayumu, Hana, Frigi, everyone who knew him and tolerated his existence. A vile voice lied dormant in his mind, always egging at him despite its docile nature; "You're too weak. You can't help them. This Universe could destroy you if you tried to save anyone.". It was infuriating to the hybrid, knowing that he could do anything against those like the Queen of the SSE, her commanders, the Kami of Earth, anyone that have trained beyond what Celmaru could imagine. As the veins upon his left forearm disappeared, a singular vein sprouted upon the hybrid's right temple, his frustration building. Walker continued speaking towards Celmaru, telling him of how he was truly teasing him; holding a "flag" just out of his reach, daring him to rush past his usual limits. The vein upon Celmaru's temple rested where it was, refusing to dissipate into his forehead. Walker pointed out that Celmaru was unable to breach the 100 thousand mark when the two first met, and yet there he was; just above 400 thousand, fighting Walker in a much less suppressed state.
"......Its not enough."
Celmaru was looking down towards the earth below, his voice becoming shaky.
"Dammit, its not enough! I can't help the Earth like this, or anyone, I'm still too weak!"
The hybrid's aura burst around him, reinvigorating itself with the Ki it was supplied by. Celmaru's anger was always evident in some way or another, but this time it was different; he was enraged over his own weakness. The hybrid lashed out at Walker, throwing everything he's got at him with his physical strength alone. The struggle may be pointless, but at least Celmaru would know that he would finish fighting; like his ancestors would. Flurries of punches and kicks alike would be thrown at Walker, holding a hope that any of them would hit; Celmaru would fail to notice the openings, as his frustrations would eventually overcome him. Meanwhile, the mental conversation between Walker and Phae continued, this time with Walker beating around the bush for Phae to realize his intent.
'I'd like to believe my husband isn't fueled by anger, Walker...'
The tree-continued his mental speech, informing Phae about the legendary Saiyan transformation. She tilted her head slightly to the side as she replied.
'What would that be? A...."Super" Saiyan? Anyway, I never would have guessed that hybrids could achieve a transformation outside their unleashed Potential....I guess I should've taken a better look at Saiyan biology and their previous feats...'
Walker simply kept speaking mentally to Phae, dropping several hints of what he was planning. She caught on quickly, but still wasn't able to completely take a full grasp of what the tree-man was implying until expressing them aloud in her mind.
'Are....are you planning on doing something that involves me? If its for Celmaru's benefit, I'll be happy to do it....but I were forced to leave this physical form to do so, it will be a while before I can possess it again...please keep note of that...and Celmaru doesn't know I can undergo a transformation as well...although its arguable that I can actually transform in the traditional sense...uh....a-anyway...'
Phae noticed that she was slowly beginning to ramble on about her abilities, whilst also giving Walker an extra amount of information about her powers. However, more links began to click in the seaweed woman's mind, and an idea struck her; correlating her to Walker's plans. Her pupils dilated, believing that she had figured out a correct answer.
'Walker...do you plan to...stage a murder? No, please don't Walker! Even if its for Celmaru's benefit, he'll be incredibly distraught! The last time he thought someone died in front of him...h-he signaled my lost spiritual form from across the entire Earth! The emotional stress was overwhelming! Celmaru's mind is already frail from his childhood, any more emotional stress could yield unpredictable results!'
Phae implored to Walker, hoping that he wouldn't go along with his plan; otherwise she'd have no choice. The seaweed woman was miles behind her husband now, and not from a lack of trying; her physical form is still somewhat odd to her. If Walker decided to attack her, she would only have enough time to leave her seaweed body to escape the blast, strike, etc. The tree-man and her husband were ahead of her by leaps and bounds, leaving her unable to do much if either of them attacked. At this point it was mostly left to Walker's decision; whether he would assault Phae or not....allowing Celmaru to ascend, or to leave him as is.
As Phae pleaded to her husband's mentor to cease his plans, Celmaru himself was left to physically strike Walker in some way. The hybrid's teeth were grit once more, pressing against his skull like a boulder to the terra firma surrounding every Earthling on the planet. Celmaru began slowing down his assault, but more Ki was placed behind each strike, creating a small impact for each blow that the tree would take. He threw a right hook towards the tree's head, a roundhouse kick at the wooden thigh, a downward strike upon Walker's head, etc. A subtle change was occurring within the hybrid, mainly within his hair. It was beginning to stand on end in a suspicious manner, but it was shifting back and forth between its usual state and an even greater upstanding form. This wasn't enough for Celmaru to ascend, but progress was visible.
"Dammit!"
Celmaru was attempting to push himself further, almost as if he was training rather than sparring. The hybrid continued to push himself more than he probably should, forcing his body to continue without rest during training sessions, or sparring matches with others. The accumulated pessimism and constant barrage of doubts within the hybrid's mind drove him to keep fighting, hoping to prove himself to everyone; even if his struggle bore fruit already. If Walker enacted his intended plans; the struggle won't be so futile anymore.

The air seemed still to the tree, despite the furious fighting that was going on. Celmaru's blows were leaving cracks in him, spiderwebs and dents where knuckles impacted wood. He could see the odd way that his hair was moving, reminiscent of the fluttering, golden aura of the Super Saiyan form he had seen on Kaula and Toma. It was so close.... As Phae responded, his heart wrenched, however. To put Celmaru through that kind of stress would be cruel. On one hand, it was clear that Phae wanted the best for Celmaru. He didn't really want to kill her, anyway, even falsely. However, Celmaru's own anger was evident, the coaxing working as intended. If not now, then it might take ages. The Half-Saiyan's nerves were obviously being stressed, and if a mere sparring match could work him up like this, a true fight to the death might result in more collateral than his student expected. Ultimately, he was forced to decide between compassion and pragmatism. He did not like causing pain, but in this case, he wished to protect Celmaru rather than coddle him. He was obviously frustrated, and there was not some other path to power involving loving feelings and yoga. Probably. If he didn't achieve Super Saiyan, he would never truly surpass his current level. Gritting his teeth, Walker made his choice, painful as it was. Moving back from Celmaru's assault, and trying to pretend he hadn't felt some of those, he exhaled,letting slip his Ki suppression. Once more, his power rushed forth, filling his form with it's surging, chaotic energy. His muscles swelled, wooden though they were, and his face cracked and shifted, body swelling. He grew, limbs multiplying, and the now-familiar flames of energy burning from his head sprang to life as he stared down at Celmaru. "The only thing weak is your will. You should know this, better than anyone. You are part human, part Saiyan. Part sheer determination, part incredible potential. You can reach this level, you JUST!" He zipped forward, his speed increased despite his now larger size. "Need!" His hand snapped out, aiming a palm blow for Celmaru's chest. "to DO IT!" The blow was followed by three others in rapid succession, all four hands aiming to throw the Half-Saiyan through the air like a rag doll. He could see the potential there, hanging just out of Celmaru's awareness. If he told him, he likely would fail to grasp it. It was not pleasant, but it was too close to just let it go now. Hands moving into position, he concentrated, and compressed his giant form, bringing himself down to his normal size, but still with full power. His fists crashed together, a shockwave echoing out. "Celmaru! Come on! HIT ME!" He flashed forward, getting close in a sudden burst of speed. "C'mon, put up your fists. Hit me! HIT ME!" Each exclamation was punctuated by a smack, a clip to the side of the head or a crack on the shoulder. Ignoring Phae's obvious distress for a moment, he grit his teeth. "Come on! COME ON!" The blows increased in intensity, harrying and frustrating, trying to push the Half-Saiyan over the edge. There was one thing left... he didn't want to keep Phae and Celmaru apart, certainly. It was obvious they cared deeply for each other, and he wasn't quite certain if Phae could move into the replacement he had been working on. Probably, but maybe not. Still, as long as it wasn't going to out and out kill her, it was a bit of wiggle room. Then, Walker nearly smacked himself. He was clearly an idiot. Why had he not thought of this before? Ki sense didn't allow you to get precise numbers, but it did allow fairly accurate guesses. If Celmaru ascended to the same level or around there as Toma or Kaula, other Half-Saiyans, he would be more than capable of stopping one of Walker's attacks at full power. If stress was needed... then the tree would grudgingly provide. Backing off, Walker snarled. "Gah. Clearly, you need motivation. Well then, you had better dig deep, because if you don't stop this, you're going to be a widower." Ouch. He would need to get something to make up for that comment afterwards. He was trying to get Celmaru mad, but that was going to cut deep. Throwing one hand out, another Red Sun Breaker gathered in his palm, this one more focused from the start. Pressing it together with the talon-like fingers, he aimed it at Celmaru for a moment, then suddenly moved. Whirling around, he zipped in a huge arc, placing himself in a line. Celmaru was a short ways in front of him, and far behind him was Phae, no longer telepathically connected to the tree. Unheard by any of them, due to it's quiet whispering, the tree muttered out two words. "I'm sorry." Then, hurling the ball of energy forward, he called out "Red Sun Breaker." This one was far stronger than before, barreling forward through the air towards Celmaru. It would be fairly obvious to those in it's line of fire that, even if it hit the Saiyan, that wouldn't be enough to slow it down. Celmaru would probably survive, where he was. It would leave him severely damaged, but alive nonetheless. However, the spill-over would hit Phae if nothing was done. Walker was aware that the spirit would be able to survive as well. In fact, he had made certain of that. Slither was waiting a few meters below if this didn't pan out, ready to snag Phae and pull her out of the way if necessary. In Telepathic contact with the serpent, the tree couldn't help but worry. This was still rather risky, but his course was set. Now, it was all up to Celmaru. Either he would give in to the pressure, or he would fail. His wife would be alive either way, but he didn't know that, and so, he was faced with a choice. Either stop the attack, or let the woman.. spirit? Seaweed? Let the person he loved die in solar hellfire. It wasn't exactly much of a choice, but then... That was the point, after all. "Come on, Celmaru... I believe in you." Whispering the words, Walker tightened his fist, staring at the two, waiting.
KP 2/3
Walker used Red Sun Breaker! 612,333 PL!

Post by Celmaru Waterfield on Mar 9, 2016 23:43:23 GMT
Celmaru was busy with his assault against Walker, but he had slipped away more swiftly than the hybrid imagined. Preparing another assault, Celmaru started to lunge at his mentor once more, but froze after sensing his suppression slip away. The hybrid flinched as the tree's Ki rose, increasing beyond Celmaru's capability. His aura still surged around his body, flickering like an intense flame. The power he had wielded had been outmatched once more, and the hybrid wasn't taking it very well. A low growl emanated under his breath, frustrated immensely.
"So now you decide to-!"
Walker, now Oozaru-sized once again, proceeded to speak of his student's race, and how it wielded the advantages of both....yet Celmaru's will was weak despite this. Veins appeared upon the hybrid's hands as he attempted to yell back at his mentor, but nothing came. He was unable to mutter a single word, left to be at the mercy of his instructor. Unfortunately, Walker was fresh out of mercy that day, lashing out at his student with blinding speed, striking him in the chest with his over-sized palm. Celmaru could only take the blow directly, spitting out tiny droplets of blood from his mouth from the strike. He felt his rib cage strain under the pressure of the wooden hand, and his lungs were emptied of any substance. The hybrid was tossed about in the air like a helpless animal, only able to endure the pain and suffering he was given. Giant splinters cut into his flesh, tearing it in several places upon his mortal frame. Walker had only struck him with three simple blows, but each felt like Frigi's sphere of decimation. Wounds appeared on the hybrid's body, the fluids of life slowly being drained from his body. Celmaru's brain was already rattled, and he nearly lost focus on his flight.
Shaking in the air, Celmaru clutched his head and abdomen, hoping to suppress the pain piercing his nerves. However, he was left with little time to recover, as Walker dashed over to him, demanding that he would strike the tree-man, whilst repeatedly beating down upon the hybrid himself. The only sounds Celmaru could muster were the gasps for oxygen he could barely manage; Walker's power was still far, far ahead of what the hybrid could ever muster.
'Is...Walker getting....serious now?'
Despite being nearly beaten into the distant ground below them figuratively, Celmaru still had his ire piqued, his rage now barely seeping to the surface. The wooden mentor continued to brashly strike down upon his student like a god onto men, leaving no mercy to spare, or any time to recover from the blows. The hybrid's mind was being rattled back and forth, to and fro, never ending agony for his body to truly handle; most of Celmaru's fights ended within a few strikes, and his endurance wasn't meant to last this long. Suddenly, Walker backed off, finally allowing Celmaru a few moment's rest. Unfortunately, he still poked at the hybrid, stating that he clearly needed some motivation to ascend.
"W-Walker....s-stop....I'm done! I realize you're still m-miles beyond m-my p-power....but y-you don't h-have to destroy me l-like this..."
Celmaru felt like collapsing right there in the sky, but he needed to talk to Walker; his power was overwhelming the hybrid. Then the tree mentioned the term "widower", and the hybrid's eyes went as wide as they could become.
"Walker....d-don't tell me you intend t-to-"
It was too late, the tree was preparing another attack, this time of greater magnitude; and originating from his full power. The tree flew about rapidly, zipping around until he faced Celmaru and Phae within a straight line of each other. Celmaru's concern had increased at an unnatural pace, leading to the point where he knew exactly what his mentor intended on doing.
"WALKER! DON'T YOU DARE!"
Sweat was pouring down the hybrid's face, his muscles were sore, and several wounds upon his body were bleeding. His strength was leaving him by the minute, but he was forced to keep going, as Walker didn't intend to wait for his student. The tree's second blast was launched, aimed at both Celmaru and Phae. The hybrid thrust his hands forward, the red-hot blast making direct contact with him. The momentum of the Red Sun Breaker was sending the hybrid back along with it, and Celmaru was unable to adjust its trajectory. Veins sprouted all along the hybrid's forearms, spreading up his biceps as he attempted to slow down the burning orb of flame as much as he could....but to no avail. Phae had come into contact with the blast as well, scorching her body and features. She was unable to stop the blast along with her husband, and with a gasp, she was forced out of her physical form...letting the mere seaweed it was fall to the Earth, unoccupied. It was a frantic attempt to escape inevitable doom, but regret immediately sank into Phae's spiritual form as the blast exploded in her husband's face. Phae had swiftly advanced Walker's plan, mostly without her consent.
Celmaru fell to the Earth, giving up on concentrating his flight path anymore. The hybrid's body was beaten and nearly at the point of breaking. Descending below the Cathedral Gaea, below the skyscrapers miles away, and shortly below the nearby trees, the hybrid landed in an open field, descending to Earth at near-terminal velocities. With a giant, crashing THUD, a crater was formed with Celmaru lying within it, nearly unconscious. Fortunately for him, his physical endurance concerning strikes was improved drastically from before. Twitching quietly, the hybrid forced himself to sit up, his entire body sore from mere pain. The sight that was about to greet him....was nothing that he ever hoped to see in his life. Before the hybrid, outside the shallow crater he formed, a bundle of seaweed fell to the ground with the same intensity he did. The weeds were scorched, yet endured a possibly violent, searing combustion. Mere short moments after the bundle landed upon the Earth, a tiny object fell into it. Fearing the worst, Celmaru jumped to his feet, wincing in pain with each step, hoping to what ever god that would listen that it wasn't what he thought it was.
"....No....please, Kami, no..."
His voice was but a mere whisper, and a shaking quiver of a voice it was. Within the bunched up heap of seaweed was a small, golden ring, wrapped together as if it were seaweed itself. The wedding ring of Phae Waterfield didn't hold her feminine finger, and basked in the sunlight; useless. Too many feelings formed within the hybrid within that instant of a moment; anger, sorrow, hate, regret, those of a shattered heart. A substance began accumulating upon Celmaru's eyes, producing such a substance that he hasn't created in a long time; tears. Several drops fell upon the green heap before the hybrid vision became unbearably blurry, blinded by the tears of a widower. The sight before him proved his previous point; he was weaker than he felt that he should be, forever unable to protect those he loves. Celmaru shook in his sorrow, and quivered in his rage. Streaks fell down his face, falling onto the grass like shredded paper. Celmaru never intended this to happen, nor did he ever want it to; even back when Phae first entered his life, he never wanted her to die....never once had he thought of such an event occurring. Celmaru was on his knees, crying his eyes out like a tiny, defenseless child. The supposedly dead pile of seaweed that was once his wife's body was lying before him, lightly seared and left to rest within the sunlight.
"Dammit....why?....WHY?!...GOD FUCKING DAMMIT WHY?!!"
Celmaru stood up straight, his eyes and facial features still stained with tears. An unyielding rage began to building, a burning desire to murder, and an eternal hate for the tree that killed his wife. The hybrid's hair began to flutter in place, shifting between suspiciously upstanding, and normally facing skyward (mostly). Its normal dark brown hue began to change, shifting from its typical color to a golden blonde, transitioning back and forth repeatedly. Looking towards the sky, the shouted desperately into the cosmos above, calling for bloody murder.
"WALKER! GET YOUR SORRY WOODEN ASS DOWN HERE!!!"
The hybrid's body was still shaking, and his power began to fluctuate rapidly; his rage was reaching the breaking point, and then nothing would stop him from avenging this travesty. Celmaru's aura began to changing into a similar golden hue, often changing into the strange hue as his unyielding rage began to expand. His fists were no longer clenched, rather they were in a clawed position, facing the sky like their owner was. Celmaru's facial expression was twitching, and electricity began to spark around his body, leaping about like a hare. A stray spark leaped up the hybrid's neck snapping its way into his brain, sending an electric impulse into his mind. Celmaru's head shot backwards, ihs eyes briefly whiting out and his hair becoming a golden yellow for longer than a second. A thunderous, animalistic roar was audible throughout the entire forest as one final cry emanated from the hybrid's mouth.
"I WILL MURDER YOU!!!"
A fierce ascension was about to begin, and it was all because of Walker's idea to separate a husband from his wife.
Prepare for another Super Saiyan to enter the Universe! Get ready @tokoz !

Walker blinked, then sent a mental message to Slither, trying to inquire what the hell was going on. He didn't get a response, and mentally cursed. This was... not at all what he had intended. Well... uh... hmm. Clenching his teeth, he winced as Celmaru hit the ground, wincing again as Phae's physical form hit the ground next to him. That was... that... he had very clearly gone wrong here. That was not supposed to happen. Unbeknownst to the tree, Slither was laying on the castle unconscious, having been knocked back at the last second by the blast wave of the attack.
As Celmaru grasped desperately at the Seaweed, Walker winced a third time, and sent a very meek message to Phae. ".... So I may have gotten this a bit wrong. You... were not actually supposed to be.. hit? I'M SORRY!" Sending a mental picture of the Cathedral, he highlighted an inner room, one near a window. "There's another body I've been working on in there, it should work. Loccus approved, anyway! I really didn't mean to burn that one, though." She probably wouldn't believe him, but this had been a mess from the start. At this point, he was just trying to play damage control.
Down below, he heard Celmaru's voice rise, swearing loudly as the Saiyan pounded the ground. Rising up, his student's aura began to flicker gold. Well, apparently it had WORKED, but the hybrid looked more than a little upset. The goal had been to push him into defending Phae, not... well, not to seem to have killed her. Scanning his fluctuating Aura, Walker frowned. Well, that was... pretty substantial. This was going to be really unpleasant, wasn't it? A burst of power surged outward, as the skies darkened. Oh, this was pretty familiar, actually-
"WALKER! GET YOUR SORRY WOODEN ASS DOWN HERE!"
... Ooooh dear. Yes,this was getting out of hand. Walker tried connecting to Celmaru, to say something, but his connection was snapped back like a broken cord. Apparently, mid-ragebased transformation was not good for reception. Well, perhaps Celmaru was-
"I'M GOING TO MURDER YOU!"
... Yes, that was about right. Bit silly to expect anything else. His feelings on the current situation could be best summed up in one word. A special word, one that he had literally never uttered before, but seemed entirely appropriate for the mess this had become. To sum up the accident, the current murderous intent, and the fact that he now had to try and control an out-of-his mind Super Saiyan hybrid.
"Well, Fuck."
Bringing his power to bear, Walker sped downwards, arms wide, and attempted to grapple Celmaru, using his own voice for once. It was hugely uncommon for him to not speak via telepathy, but this seemed like an appropriate time. "Celmaru, Phae isn't dead! She's a spirit! Her body was just damaged, and that wasn't supposed to happen! This was the goal, but... well, not killing your wife." It occurred to him, probably too late, that this was not very convincing, and over the current storm of energy, he wasn't actually sure that his student could really hear him. Breaking off his failing attempts to grapple the altered Saiyan, Walker lept back, breaking through numerous trees as he tried to put some space between himself and Celmaru.
Throwing his arms up, he began attempting to block whatever would come his way. Celmaru might not be quite on his level, but they were far closer now, and in this state, a full-power attack could do some serious damage to him. In a way, he was proud. His student had managed to go from just a normal fighter to the Legendary Super Saiyan in only a few months, although it was far more a result of his own effort than Walker's teachings. The teachings weren't looking so hot right now, if he was honest. After all, MOST teachers didn't have their students wanting to kill them. Unaware of the fact that he was probably quite wrong about this, Walker winced and kept attempting to dodge, contacting Phae in the meantime.
"Phae, if you manage to get back to physical form, again I am sorry, I think you might be needed out here. Quite a bit. Celmaru is a bit distraught. Understandably so, yes, and again I am sor- sorry." He grunted, diving to the side. "But yes, help outside probably good AH FUCK I will call you back maybe goodbye!" Slamming his arms together, he tumbled to one side, popping up and zipping between a pair of trees, trying to keep out of range of the berserk Saiyan.

Walker would have to just sit back and watch for this one. The sky darkened, and Celmaru's aura grew ever brighter. The hybrid's entire body was twitching from the unyielding rage it bore. His hands still were held in claw-like positions, veins appearing at a severely rapid pace. Celmaru could only bring himself to grunt, but a few threatening words escaped the hybrid's lips.
"I...WILL MAKE YOU...BURRRNN!!"
Celmaru's pupils were gone, lost in the white mists of his irises. His muscles contracted intensely in spasms, more veins appearing along the length of the hybrid's biceps and forearms. The earth below his feet burst, cracking from the immense power that was building. Celmaru's head jerked back once more, his hair glowing a golden hue another time. The hybrid's hair stood completely on end, facing the sky as if it were its enemy. Vicious snarls escaped the hybrid's maw, his seething rage nearly manifesting itself in a burning flame underneath his skin. Mental images flashed through Celmaru's mind as he nearly hit the breaking point. Memories of Ayumu, Hana, his Mother and Father....and most of all, the most important person to him; Phae. She was one of the most influential people in his life, guiding towards a more enlightened path, facing the light together. But because of Walker, she was gone, and the hybrid was alone in this universe once again.
Before Phae had been married to him, he didn't care about being alone; as it would've done many others better if he had been left alone. Since Phae had vanished from the physical realm, the pain of loss and bitter feelings of loneliness struck him harder than any of Walker's attacks could. Celmaru felt empty on the inside, and nothing but a violent, murderous Saiyan was left; a shell of the hybrid's former self. The golden ring on Celmaru's finger burned with an odd flame, as if to ward off feelings of hatred and despair. The man who wore the ring felt nothing but those two sensations currently, blinded by his rage. Celmaru felt helpless, unable to do anything against Walker for his actions.
"YOU....YOU WILL....PAY FOR THIIIIIS!"
"I WILL DESTROY YOU! EVISCERATE YOU! ANNIHILATE YOU!"
Celmaru's vocabulary was reduced to a few, threatening words of pure rage. The hybrid was forcing nearby debris to defy gravity form his sheer power, disconnecting several chunks of earth to float up into the nearby atmosphere. Celmaru was gritting his teeth fiercely, to the point that he nearly broke one of the visible chewing bones. His head was constantly forced upwards periodically, his hair shifting hues every time. The bundle of seaweed rose into the air, floating lifelessly. Celmaru's frustrations with his weakness, his helplessness, his doubts, fears, everything compiled into one, blazing desire to murder a certain tree. His rage will soon become manifested, changing his body, mind, and physical prowess. Tears continued to run down his cheeks, his sorrow over the loss of his loved one becoming too great for him to bottle up within him. Thunder began to descend onto the Earth, impacting the field like a pencil to paper. One of them struck Celmaru, reminiscent to the previous bolt that had attempted to strike him down before. Another jerk of the hybrid's head, and he spoke in tune with his unyielding rage.
"MURDER, DEVASTATION, DESTRUCTION, REVENGE, SIN, ANYTHING THAT WILL KILL YOU!"
The hybrid's tucked away anger, previous frustrations, his hatred, desire for revenge upon those who mistreated him...it all came to light in one burst of rage. Nothing will stop Celmaru from this ascension, he won't let anything cease his transformation. Lightning surged around his body, enveloping his right arm lightly, almost as if it were helping him. One more push was required to set Celmaru free, allowing him to finally ascend. Something personal, something completely essential to push him over the edge. Another thought occurred to him, displaying another image in his mind. From a few days ago, the two of them were receiving a peaceful awakening after a short rest. It was during the evening, and Phae had awoken quietly in his arms.
"Good evening, Celmaru."
"Good evening, Phae."
"This place is very nice..."
"I agree, I hope to come here again sometime soon with you..."
"I hope so too..."
The memory shattered, leaving Celmaru to face the gruesome reality once more. The knowledge that he'd never see her smiling face again, never as a couple, and never again as husband and wife; he was alone. The thought of being weak and alone once more sent the hybrid spiraling over the edge. The regret of not being able to see her smile again, the sorrow he felt after seeing her die, the rage he felt towards Walker, it boiled in a seething anger; until it was unleashed. Celmaru's entire body shot upwards several feet, his head facing skywards. A massive dome of lightning burst out from the hybrid, sparking at the atmosphere like a giant electromagnetic pulse. Celmaru's aura skyrocketed towards the cosmos above, stabilizing as a bold golden yellow. The hybrid's hair became obstinate, staying as a bright golden blonde, and Celmaru's power surged within his veins, immediately going to his head. A ring of force exploded around the hybrid, lashing out at the air around him. Another animalistic roar was heard, and Celmaru simply screamed from the sudden power enhancement.
"HRRRRAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAaaAAAAAaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaAAAAAGGGGHHHHHH!!!"
Celmaru was a new person, someone with new strength, renewed determination, and an empowered will. The hybrid descended to the ground slowly, his newfound power arriving as a sweet surprise. However, his frail mental state and the sudden increase in power created a whole new personality within the hybrid in the new form, but nothing would noticeably change concerning personality; because all that Celmaru felt was rage....pure, unadulterated rage. The hybrid knew exactly what had come over him, and his lips curled slightly into a cocky smirk. The smirk faded as soon as it formed, however, as Celmaru turned to his newfound enemy. Walker finally used his voice for once, frantically explaining to Celmaru that Phae never died in the first place. His brows furrowed and the hybrid lazily stepped to the side, dodging Walker's attempt at a grapple. Lashing out at the tree, Celmaru attempted to break the tree's arm, silently containing his anger. As he attempted to do so, he spoke confidently, and still very angrily as his new icy blue hues pierced though him, almost as if he were searching for the tree's soul.
"My name is Celmaru Anton Waterfield.....AND I AM A SUPER SAIYAN!!!"
Walker leaped backwards, away from the hybrid. Celmaru lashed out at open air, but still felt oddly confident of his ability. An spike of ire washed over the hybrid, an idea forming; the ultimate Great Blast Crash, the final evolution to his signature blast. Flashing an unexpectedly cruel grin towards Walker, Celmaru shot out hundreds of Ki Blasts towards his mentor, not expecting any of them to hit. Muttering under his breath, another enraged look took over his facial expression.
"You done a tremendous wrongdoing to me Walker, be prepared to face the ultimate consequence..."
Silently rising into the atmosphere once more, Celmaru raised his hands to the sky, accumulating his energy. A tiny blast appeared, and looked nothing more than a single Great Blast Crash....however there was a twist. The sphere grew at an unnatural rate, expanding with the Super Saiyan's energy until it became as giant as Satan City. The oxygen around the blast reacted with the giant orb, swirling around it like a moth to a flame. The oxygen lit the blast aflame, burning with the raging, empowered Ki of a Super Saiyan. With that reaction, the Ultimate Kaiser Impact was born. Lifting the blast behind him, Celmaru prepared his blast to crash into Walker, ignoring the real consequence of using this technique; the destruction of the Earth.
"THIS IS WHAT YOU GET....WHEN YOU MURDER A SAIYAN'S WIFE, WALKER!!!"
Meanwhile, Phae was have difficulty entering another body, even if it was supposedly made for her. Despite its intention to be possessed in the first place, it was resisting; like it still had consent on whether or not Phae was allowed in. Cursing under her breath, she flew directly into the nearby wall, exiting the Cathedral Gaea. She frantically surveyed the entire open field, hoping to find her seaweed body soon. Phae noticed the significant amount of energy emanating from her husband, and it terrified her. The Ultimate Kaiser Impact has been born again, and it nearly destroyed the planet the last time it was used, just like this time. Desperately searching for her body, she gave up more swiftly than she realized. Swinging back around, she entered the Cathedral Gaea once more, hoping to be able to take control of the spare body for once. Her seaweed frame was still usable, but it would only be usable if Celmaru didn't destroy the planet first!
Celmaru has achieved Super Saiyan! His new PL is 1,163,481!
Ultimate Kaiser Impact ready to fire! (100% Celmaru's PL) The blast's current PL is 1,163,481!
Celmaru is charging his blast for near-moment's use! 100% increase per turn.
Ultimate Kaiser Impact acquired.
SSJ1 attained.

Bracing himself, Walker narrowed his gaze, the wind whipping around him as Celmaru screamed in rage. That was... certainly some language. Despite the inherent insanity of the situation, he was rather glad he had decided to do this now, in retrospect. If this had occurred elsewhere, against someone who was not prepared for the sheer, hot boiling rage that was pouring through the air? There would have been literal hills of corpses, at best. True to his race, Celmaru was overflowing with power. Holding himself in place as a dome of energy crackled outwards, Walker stared. His eyes didn't leave Celmaru's form, despite the chaos occurring all around them. He would bear witness, this day. It was only right, after all. This day was going to be pivotal to the world, one way or another. After all, despite the increasing numbers, a Super Saiyan was a warrior of legend, and for good reason. Clenching his fist, he watched Celmaru as a bestial scream ripped his way from his throat. And then... And then.... Everything went gold. A wave of lightning surged outwards, blowing past Walker like a wave. Power ripped through the sky, darkened despite the earliness of the day. It was as though the sun had stepped foot upon the ground, intent to kill filling every ray of deadly light. His student looked toward Walker, eyes piercing him with hate. This was the precise moment Walker realized this wasn't possibly going to end peacefully. It was going to end with either him dead, or Celmaru beaten unconscious. He was entirely capable of it, but it was going to be painful, in more ways than one. As Celmaru raised his body upwards, Walker remained on the ground. Unlike the berserk Super Saiyan, he realized what would happen if such energy was thrown at the planet. It might not destroy it utterly, but the planet would suddenly have several billion less people on it. "This, Celmaru. This is why I pushed you over the edge now, where I could face you myself. You may not be able to forgive me for what you think I have done, but you would never be able to forgive yourself for murdering earth in a blind rage." This brought uncomfortable thoughts to his mind, as he spoke to the whirlwind, Celmaru forming a Great Blast Crash above his palm. Still, this was no time to think of his actions above Vegeta. He was dealing with Celmaru's trauma, not his own half-uncertain guilt. Clenching his teeth, Walker narrowed his eyes. He didn't want to have to do this, but it was becoming clear that he didn't have a choice. He was about to mentally call out to Phae, when a terrifying thought crossed his mind. He had ensured that Phae would live beyond his attack, but if she got in the way of Celmaru's currently charging technique, she might "Die" yet again. If he thought that he had snapped and killed her all over.... No. This was his fault, and so he would take responsibility. As the Great Blast Crash evolved above him, and Celmaru called down a blistering judgement, Walker set his stance, and closed his eyes. Everything was drowned out for a moment, the noise becoming silence as he reached within himself, harnessing the sorcerous energies that he had tapped into when creating the Red Sun Techniques. He would need all of his control to pull this off. The stronger the technique was, the more brightly the hellfire burned. With Celmaru as he was, no chances could be taken. As much as he respected the young man, he could not risk half-measures right now. A mis-step could result in the destruction of the planet. There was only one recourse. Bringing one hand up, Walker's eyes snapped open. The normal purple glow was replaced by a furious crimson, blazing from his eyes as his energy concentrated upwards. His magic brought forth the energy, and the ravenous mystic fire of the tree's blast began to coalesce with incredible speed. Flames burned forth from nothing, adding to the massive orb with each passing microsecond. Legs digging into the ground, Walker pulled his hand down, fingers grasping around the air as the fire was compressed into a small, baseball-sized orb that almost hurt to look at. His other hand, fingers similarly grasping, moved atop it, arms contorted in front of his body in diagonal opposites. The orb held just in front of his collarbone, he poured his power into it, watching Celmaru as he charged his attack in turn. It would be a clash between the pair, their signature techniques facing one another. Ironically, despite their relative positions, Celmaru was actually using a far older attack. He had mentioned how he was reviving techniques from his family's past, and meanwhile, he was facing Walker, a being with no past to speak of. It was sad, in a way. Setting his jaw as the wind whipped about him, Aura flaring in dark purple to match Celmaru's Gold, he considered trying to speak one last time before they clashed, then dismissed the idea. A ways away, in the Cathedral, as Phae attempted to make use of the spare body, a figure appeared in the doorway behind her. Tall, almost as tall as Walker, he was made of more typical brown wood, with sprouts and branches extending from his body. White intricate armor was wrapped about his form, as though he had taken pieces of the architecture and reconstructed them about his body. Moving closer, he reached out a single taloned finger, and lifted the rug beneath the slab the body lay on. During the chaos, the room had shifted slightly, and the rug had slid ever so slightly to one side. In doing so, the fuzz had smudged a rune in the circle surrounding the spare form. With a grating noise, Bastion completed the rune, carving it into the stone, and the circle lit up, the Talisman on the body's face burning away. Turning to look at Phae's spirit form, he rumbled "It is ready."

Post by Celmaru Waterfield on Mar 11, 2016 23:17:46 GMT
As Celmaru had nearly nonexistent chances of calming down now, threatening the destruction of his home planet through his unyielding rage, Phae was struggling to enter another physical body. She held her non-corporeal hands before her, concentrating on the body she was supposed to enter. Her spiritual form is much different than her previous physical form, and not just by material. Her frame was much more modest than her seaweed figure, and she was noticeably shorter than her plant-based counterpart. The physical frame that she was supposed to be entering in a frantic rush to calm down her husband was surprisingly similar to previous form; albeit more Human. The coloration of its hair was shockingly white, although that's bound to change once Phae got into it, and its anatomy was completely accurate to a normal Human female's. Several areas within the anatomy were a bit off, but Phae wasn't complaining; several disturbing behaviors of the body weren't active, such as the behavior/reactions that cause per%^&$. Suddenly, a giant wooden creature, akin to Walker himself, took a swift stride over to the empty corpse of a body, carving a tiny rune into its base.
"Huh? What are you-"
It didn't matter what Phae said, he/it wouldn't be able to hear, no matter how hard the spectral woman tried. As the rune was completed, a shining light overcame Phae's vision, and she awoke within the body; the figure gaining warmth, its artificial blood pumping, and its frame obtaining a soul. The newly formed hands looked up at their new owner, and Phae faced them in immediate shock. The body was new, and she would have to calibrate her spiritual energies before being able to properly use it. Her new hair color was white, but that swiftly changed according to the soul that occupied it. The long, flowing hair of Phae's new frame melted from a bright white to a deep green, just as before. The eyes of the body's anatomy shifted from a mere light gray to a dark forest green, just as Celmaru originally saw them to be. Stepping off the base that the limp corpse of a body rested upon, Phae leaped forwards in a sprint, nearly dashing straight into a wall due to her imbalance.
'This is going to be irritating....'
Phae decided to utilize her Ki instead of her physical limitations; however she was still anything but well-versed in traversing inside a fresh body, and nearly fell onto her face as she attempted to fly out the door. Unfortunately, this scenario was left in the hands of Walker now, unless Phae could calibrate herself with the new form. Meanwhile, the husband of Phae Waterfield was threatening to destroy the planet in his violent rage.
"WALKER! DO YOU DARE TEST THE MIGHT OF A TRUE SAIYAN WARRIOR!?"
Holding the ancient blast above his head, his pride swollen to the point of near-destructive levels, Celmaru sent another burst of energy into his supernova of devastation, and more veins appeared along his forearms. His rage began to subside, but stubbornly lingered, and his transformed personality can to face the light of day. His insane overconfidence will surely get him knocked unconscious by a certain tree sooner or later.
"I AM A GOD! DO YOU THINK YOU CAN REALLY STOP ME?! I WILL TAKE REVENGE UPON YOU FOR MURDERING MY WIFE, WALKER!"
Celmaru was shifting subjects left and right, albeit still within the main issue at hand; his believed that Phae was deceased, and Walker was bound to repent. The hybrid wasn't acting like himself, and was blinded by his desire to murder the tree he once called his mentor. Phae was nearly outside the Cathedral Gaea, catching onto her spare body rather quickly. Her balance was awful, and her center of gravity felt more centered towards her bosom than she remembered in her original physical form. She was unable to adjust her proportions, and not from a lack of trying. Walker surely had done quite the job with the creation of this figure, and Phae was almost despising the tree's work due to her inability to coordinate herself; mainly within this dire strait. Stumbling out onto the courtyard, passing Mato, the woman previously made of seaweed focused her magic, forcing her to take flight.
"Hey! The hell is happening?!"
"Celmaru went berserk! He's ascended onward to something I never anticipated!"
"What? Is he a Super Saiyan!?"
"Possibly!"
Phae fluttered around unsteadily in the open air, her body refusing to cooperate. Looking towards the sky above her, an ungodly sight met her eyes. A giant, blazing sphere of ancient devastation loomed before her, bringing back terrible memories. However, this version of the Ultimate Kaiser Impact was even more tremendous in size compared to before; centuries ago. A tiny golden speck was standing beneath the blast of imminent doom; Celmaru Waterfield, the Enraged Super Saiyan. Forcing both Ki and magic below her feet, Phae lifted herself above the Cathedral Gaea, floating towards her husband, hoping to reach him before the destruction was unleashed onto the planet. Meanwhile, the husband of Phae Waterfield was beginning to laugh menacingly.
"Heheh....Hah hah....HAAHAHAAAHAHAAAA! WALKER, YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS! JUST SIT BACK AND WAIT FOR DEATH, ALREADY!"
Another burst of energy coursed through the hybrid's veins, immediately being directed at his ultimate blast. Celmaru didn't need disconnected memories of the original Celmaru for this one, his rage had brought it to life; allowing this blast to wreak havoc once more. Walker prepared an attack of his own, preparing to rival Celmaru's ancestor's final contribution....for now. Thrusting his hands forward, the giant, red sun of destruction was launched, aimed for Walker himself. It moved as quickly as a normal Great Blast Crash, and didn't receive any mercy from its creator, nor from anything else around it. Phae became utterly terrified, and helpless at the sight of the Ultimate Kaiser Impact descending onto the Earth, intent on annihilating Walker first. Shaking her head, and focusing on her objective, Phae suddenly shot off in Celmaru's direction, her body getting the picture for once. If Phae made a singe wrong move, however, she would lose control of this body as well, forcing her to leave the uncoordinated body. Phae hoped that it wouldn't come to that. Celmaru kept his hands before him, keeping his energy focused on the Impact. His lips curled into a malicious smile, one that could only be found upon a Saiyan's face. This wasn't simply about revenge anymore; it was for the hybrid's enjoyment....its as if his Saiyan side took over his instinct, and that part of his biology was just cut loose. The power of a Super Saiyan had eliminated the compassionate Human side of Celmaru Waterfield; and what was left was nothing more than a vile Saiyan.
Ultimate Kaiser Impact was launched at 200% PL! UKI PL is now 2,326,962!
Better hope your attack is ready, @tokoz !
