Mattenes' PL: 17,723 (10,000 Currently) No Form Active No Bonus' Active Mattenes soared across the sky- Sort of. More or less extremely long, and more so dangerous high jumps using his explosive ki as makeshift propulsion. "Hahaha! Whoooooo! Awesome!" He laughed, feeling the wind block his hearing with the whistling and whipping of the air going past the projectile potato boy. The wind pulling his hair back exposing his hairline. He did a little spin in the air even! Reveling in the joy that the makeshift flight gave him. as he began to tilt downwards towards the ground, he sighed contently as he had to focus on the landing and next jump. He readjusted himself subtly trying to go from a more torpedo position to: arms outstretched, legs going back and forth to be ready to take the impact. the lowest bit of his pant legs was shredded to fabric strings due to the initial blast from the ki. His legs had adjusted to the loadbearing that was necessary, though he still had a limit on how many times he could do this before his shins and knees started to sting and become sore from too much stress.
Coming down he thought to himself [I wonder if when I go back home to Kasey and the others if I can show them how to do this? It's not hurting anyone- i-i mean in the sense of other people, and this is beyond fun! ... Well, I don't really like the feeling in my gut... maybe they won't? Well, I dunno maybe. Either way, I can't wait to show Kasey this! She'll flip her lid!" He transitioned from thoughts to speaking aloud, a new trait he's developed recently. "Wait- what was I doin- OH CRAP NO!" he flails in the air a bit to try to fly since he was too close to the ground to brace himself properly. "Ahhhhhh!" He shouted, dropping like a rock to the ground, hitting the ground and hearing a rather gross sound from his legs as he rolled and even then, not dampening the impulse enough to stop his momentum, he rolled into a stumbling run right into a tree. His arms extended forward as well as his legs like he was hugging the tree, before falling to the ground. "owwww...." He groaned, looking down to check his legs. Oh thank goodness they weren't broken. Well, that wasn't a good sound so maybe he shouldn't 'fly' for a bit. Though, where even was he? He wasn't in the bamboo forest he remembered, the climate was too mild-mannered to be west or north... Either East or south then... He got up, a small pain in his shins nagging him as he ventured forward, wanting to explore. [well, maybe I can meet someone I can learn from?] |

(Thread Pl: 190,025)
Quite some time since Pieter had tried to go to Bing and patch things up, only to have that backfire with the showing of the, 'leader of the planet,' Vi-Poi, along with several others who came to the Lookout. The hunter was dealt the most painful hit he'd ever experienced, still seething with anger about it. He was trying to learn and understand what was going on, even if the way he did called for that. However, having been dead and not knowing what was going on with everyone had led to that, and now, he was pissed! A grudge was building in him, one that he'd exact on that android when he could, but he had to develop his strength.
This day, Pieter had taken to focusing on training his body in the forests of the Eastern Lands. Hunting in the wilderness would help him loosen up and get Pieter ready to undergo a more substantial workout in his gravity chamber back at the Harborage! The hunter, however, was finding difficulty finding a hefty mark.
He had found himself a sabertooth to hunt and chase through the forest, but the beast was too slow for Pieter's extreme strength and speed. He ended up letting it go into the mountains, to lick its wounds. Afterwards, he had delved into a river to wrestle with the gargantuan fish there. He wound up getting 3 of the giants to feast on before the hunter got bored. He set up a large campfire, to roast the fish on a spit.
"These damn animals," Pieter thought aloud, drying his body next to the fire while rotating the three, "They don't nearly compare to the beasts in and around Fukurou... I will have to make sure my training regiments go out there, instead of-"
There was a loud crash in the forest not far from Pieter, with a decently sized presence with it! The hunter looked in its direction and raised his eyebrows. He muttered, "Huh... Maybe I spoke too soon."
Pieter hefted the branch with the fish and stood it up in the rocky ground, before getting himself quickly dressed. Once dressed, he rocketed over to the source of the shaking! He arrived in only seconds, stopping to levitate above. His eyes scanned below the branches, spotting a man wreathed in a tunic of leaves and a simple pair of pants. Pieter lowered down to the man, calling out, "Well now! I was wondering what that loud crash was. Are you alright?"

Mattenes Sighed ready to give up, though the calling from up above him jostled him out of his doubtful thoughts that something wouldn't come from this. He actually jumped- bout a foot in the air before colliding with the ground, wincing at the impact to his shins. He looked back up, seeing the Hybrid with a mixed look of awe, and caution. Seems like most of the people he saw as awe-inspiring were more or less the most dangerous people on the planet. He didn't seem hostile though, Mattenes chuckled and nodded "Y-yeah! I'm alright. I was trying to do the flying thing you and my friends have been doin' but I'm kinda bad at it! I've kinda just been, well... Hold on lemme show you!" He looked to his shins, wincing at the thought of it, instead, he held out his hands, trying to summon up the destructive or he'd only used below his feet, and once accidentally, below his rump.
A small greenish bluish orb formed in his hands, as he held his arms outstretched like a bird's wingspan. And he tried bracing his arms before letting loose of his control of the ki orb and letting it blast his limbs up. though he couldn't bear the pressure enough to gain much lift from it, and merely went up about 2 inches, while his hands went right above his head, nearly dislocating which didn't feel too bad, more just unpleasant- and smacking the backs of his hands together. He yipped a bit, and pouted "Okay, well- it doesn't work with my arms, but when I do it below my feet I can jump so frickin' far!" He chuckles in the joy of the exhilarating feeling it gave him, only minorly having a passing thought that he shouldn't enjoy it too much. "Ah- what're you doin' around here?"

The kid spoke quickly, with a jump and a slightly injuring fall that Pieter didn't let go unnoticed. The hunter landed on the ground, with his arms crossed as he listened to the kid's explanation, and demonstration. His energy was erratic and self-destructive in nature, but it was basically used as an attempt to get the younger individual flying! Pieter blinked and frowned, realizing this guy was more like a young bird trying to fly by falling to the ground and failing, repeatedly, hurting themselves. He was exhilarated, nonetheless, and Pieter commended him for that, but his flawed technique was going to hurt him. "Hunting," Pieter replied, while walking up to the young man, "Until I heard you crashing through the trees like a large dinosaur. I was eating some of my fishy kill upon hearing you... And while it's different than what I expected, it seems it was a good idea I came out here. Any more damage to your hands and shins like that and you'll end up becoming a crippled version of yourself! You ought to get some rest before doing anything else."( Mattenes) |

Mattenes rubbed the back of his hands, noting a small bruise appearing. frowning as he realized he did kind of did too much. He'd gone a little overboard before, but even holding back he'd nearly dislocated his arms. This was gonna be a problem. He reached back with the rubbing hand and scratched the back of his neck with a sheepish smile "I'll get it eventually. whenever I try though I cant really get my energy to... do what I need it to? I dunno aheheh" he nervously chuckles at his own incompetence.
Mattenes listened, nervously running a hand along his bruised backhand as the word hunting struck at his gut, his words inciting that Saiyan blood, though he tried suppressing it. He hated the burning sensation whenever it came. Even though it'd helped him with calming nabel in the wake of his immense power... it didn't lighten the discomfort it brought! The words crippled came about in his explanation and he shivered "y-yeah I guess that'd suck huh? I mean, I've been pretty careful but I always like the feeling of soaring in the air yaknow?" His expression lightens up as a new string of thought entered his mind. Maybe he knows how to control his energy? [I'm gonna need to learn soon- A lot of things are happenin' apparently and... well I wanna be able to defend my home planet.] which spurred the question. "Ah, do you fight a lot?" He asked, making a rather confusing leap of logic, not knowing hunters didn't have to always be fighters. Though given how- well, how well-built Pieter was. it was kind of a good assumption on his part.

"Yes, it definitely would," Pieter replied, "And that feeling of soaring through the air is wondrous, I would agree. The birds, however, make not such destructive force when they beat their wings. Think like a bird and only use what you need to. Start slowly and get more familiar AFTER you've rested your aching bones!"Pieter turned away, looking like he was about to fly away when the question came to him. He turned back and stated, "I do so very often. It's how I've developed much of my strength, aside from being mostly saiyan genetically. Why do you ask?"( Mattenes)

Well it's good that he added to get familiar AFTER, since as he spoke mattenes was pulling his arms up again, and readying when he said after, quickly pushing his hands back down and his cheeks flaring up a rosy pink from embarrassment. "Right! Right. after." He nodded chuckling. "So ah- you do fight. I wanted to ask cause well- I mean im a pacifist. I was raised to be one, I wasnt raised by my saiyan parents- ok god this sounds weird I need to get better at explaining this. ANYHOW. This planet, kinda seems like a place where fighting is treasured. I need to learn how to... do the fighting thing. You know? At least so I can protect my people when I go back." He shuffles his feet, moving around somewhat, feeling weird just standing there now, his tail wriggling in nervous energy. "Do you know anyone that could teach me?" He asks straight up. " A lot of stuff is happening like war and all that, and If that reaches my planet with my pacifist family they're..." He gulps and looks to the side for a split second as he thought about that contingency. "I need to learn how to fight"

The kid was easy to embarrass himself, not able to get his words straight. Pieter crossed his arms as he waited for the kid to get the words out. He thought to himself, "This kid's got power... But he shouldn't be trying to learn how to fight."This kid managed to eventually get the words out, stating that his family would be in danger if he didn't learn how to fight to protect them. The kid's tail wagged behind him, emphasizing the nervousness he was experiencing. Pieter bluntly told him, "I do, but no."He pointed at him, and before he could speak, Pieter begun to explain why sternly and calmly. He didn't raise his voice as he did. "You're in no good condition to ask about training. During these times, you're better to ask for help instead of putting yourself at risk to try and defend your family. Putting yourself at risk will terrify your family, especially if you were to die!"( Mattenes) |

Mattenes looked to Pieter with a bit of surprise and even opened his mouth to respond- though as Pieter spoke sternly to him, something click'd in him and he shut his mouth and stood still. Like when the elders gave him a stern talking to it was all sort of the same. His tail curled around his thigh and he looked down. [Ask for help? I don't think I thought of that? I don't wanna scare them, I don't wanna have them worry for me. I dont want them to fear me either. If I die, did I ever think of that??? What would happen if I died? Do I even care about that for myself? Why am I disappointed? Staying a pacifist is what I wanted] As the thoughts swirled in his mind the thoughts of his family whirled in his nervous lil noggin for better or for worse.
"Y-you're right." He said with a soft, yet audible voice. "I shouldn't put myself in danger like this, I wouldn't want them to worry about me like this, I don't want them to fear me either. I should ask for help..." He turned to look to where he believes he'd start walkin' when this discussion was over and sighs, sort of relieved. "It's kinda weird. I don't know why I'm disappointed" He chuckles a bit, genuinely finding it pretty funny in an ironic sense. He turned back to Pieter though and smiled "Well, thanks ah- wait, what was your name?"

After Pieter's explanation, this kid seemed to mentally curl into a ball. He talked about them being afraid of and for him, his family, and started to walk away. He laughed at the irony, stating that he was disappointed and didn't know why. He looked back, thanking Pieter for his advice and asking for his name finally. Pieter sighed, walking over to the kid and stating, "Pieter Wolfbane. You, kid, also need to learn to control yourself. Already, you're strong... Not strong like me and many others now these days, but you're strong. Come and have some fish with me and explain some things to me. Like why you're aiming to get strong, outside your family."He put his hand on the kid's shoulder, gesturing towards where Pieter had come from with his other hand. "Elate your story to me."( Mattenes feel free to take us over! Camp's just consisting of 3 giant fish, one cooked and descaled fish on a large branch, with the other two next to them, and a large campfire to cook them over.) |

As Pieter walked over, Mattenes straightened up again. Feeling as though he was going to be on the end of a stern talking to again. No stern talking to, kinda. More just- well the words Pieter spoke calmed him. His stance relaxed and he nodded. "Thank you Pieter, Im ah. I'm Mattenes" He introduced himself. "I'd love to have some food with ya" He smiles gently and walks in the direction he came from, and gestured to.
As he walks towards the camp, he looks back to Pieter and takes a second to recount his thoughts "Okay ah. Well. I should probably say, I was born on a planet apparently I was supposed to destroy with my actual parents. My family- The people I actually grew up with, well... killed them? It's still a bit fuzzy on the details. Anyhow, they didn't wanna kill an infant. They took me in. So- I'm full Saiyan." He started "Lately I've been getting- I get the- what do you call it... Urge? To fight? My family was always worried that I'd end up no better than bloodthirsty to my parents, and..." He thought a bit "Well, I suppressed it there, but on this planet? Everyone makes the feeling in my gut flare up. It's like a fire. It really burns and hurts but a part of me wants to enjoy it. I mean. I don't want to hurt anyone but it's kinda like this feeling of OOMPH. you know? Like a 'go!' kinda thing." He tried explaining the best he could "At first, I just tried forcing the feeling down by grabbing and tightenin' my grip on my tail. it usually stops it, but I eventually met this really strong guy, Nabel, who was really upset and he had this power that terrified me. I was frozen in stone!" He kept explaining, his mouth running like a motor at this point "And so, I was really scared he was going to be hurt and run off, but the feeling in my gut, that fire thing? It let me move. It still hurt, a lot but I could calm him down. I dunno if I still hate it." He pouts and looks down, then up "but- It helps me help someone. I don't know. I feel like I'm losing a grip on my pacifism and I'm not sure if that's good or bad anymore. If I'm strong I can help people like Nabel in times of need, but I'm scared I might end up like purika who-" He felt a wave of nausea and swallowed. "I don't wanna kill anyone. but I wanna get strong, for my family and friends but also... I mean... I'm not even sure why I'm aiming to be strong when it comes to myself. Maybe I actually want to fight. The feeling of fighting my fear and helping someone felt great. It felt like I proved I was stronger than my fear... Is that weird?" he asks Pieter as they got to the campsite. The sight of the fish gave Matt a mixed feeling, he was so used to eating veggies, but goodness that looked amazing. [I'm not sure if i'm gonna like this but it sure as heck looks delicious!] "You caught these? THESE ARE HUGE!"

The kid introduced himself as Mattenes. At a stage of infancy, he'd been sent to the world he called home, the original design of his sending there was to destroy it. Pieter frowned, as he took up the cooked fish and started munching down on it while it was still on the branch! Basically, to Pieter, Mattenes was one of those, 'Programmed to destroy,' sorts of saiyans that experienced some sort of trauma that ruined this programming. Pieter remembered his Dad having told him that this was something the government, at the time, was trying to stop happening, as it was archaic and would have breached the Centurial Peace Treaty between the SSE, AE, Earth, and Namek. However, loopholes allowed the SSE to send them to worlds in unmarked territory, and this world Mattenes got sent to was part of that. Mattenes jumped ahead to talk about their saiyan tendencies being fought back, but also wanting to express the desire to fight stronger people! Pieter was asked if it was weird to do that. "No," Pieter answered, "You're a saiyan, like me... Although I'm not full blooded. Wanting to fight and indulge in showing your dominance over someone is common in all creatures, but it's more apparent in saiyans. Fighting our fears is what Saiyans do..."Pieter paused, seeing Mattenes eying the fish. He pointed over to them, telling him, "I did. Feel free to take one, though. I caught one too many for myself. Just be sure to cook it over the fire while it's on a branch."He tore a chunk out of his fish, gnashing the meat down before swallowing in between talking. He'd ask him, "This, 'Purika,' guy. Is he a saiyan too?"( Mattenes) |

Mattenes walked to the fish and picked one up, beginning to roast it over the fire. He knew how to roast onions over the fire, so he assumed it was familiar to that. He listened to Pieter explain the desires of Saiyans, and when he said Purika's name, he gulped and nodded "Yeah- He's a Saiyan. Apparently, he's from the SSE, whatever that is. I'm guessing it's a Saiyan army with how he talked about it. He wanted me to join, but. I knew what my parents were sent to do, even if they changed it I couldn't kill anyone so- I'd have been useless. I ran away and just kinda roamed the forest. Then I saw what he did on a distant planet through a transmission. His hair turned to gold and he just- well he killed someone that's all I can say." He sighs trying not to shake. though his jaw quivered at the thought of the power, the rage. Even though something deep in the recess of his mind he wanted to fight him still. Even past all the pacifistic ideals he had, something deeper wanted to fight him, further out from that he wanted to stop him. More Saiyan genetics demanding for him to fight. He wanted to ask many things 'will I end up like that?' 'can I do good?' 'Are there good Saiyans' and most intense of thoughts was 'Should I be fighting my nature?' but at this point, he realized just asking wouldn't be helpful.
Like a small epiphany, he kind of realized that he had to figure that out himself. So he was going to do something that at least his heart and his gut could for once agree on. He pulled the cooked fish up to his mouth and took a big chomp out of it, not expecting his teeth to tear through the meat with ease, the taste was wonderful- yeah it was a lil undercooked, and he didnt cook it evenly either, but it was great regardless. Something he wouldn't regret. His shaking subsided. The confidence of doing something in sync ebbing his fears. "I thought i'd like to get to know purika, but I don't think I could now- And I think that's ok." he says with a confidence he'd lacked, it wasn't very impressive but it was a step in the right direction

Mattenes was overly nervous, Pieter half tempting to tell him to calm down, but when he answered Pieter's question about this Purika character, he understood. He tore through his fish quickly, leaving just the head and tail be on the bone. He'd make use of those remaining parts in a stew, after he'd make a sizable pot to put it all in. After a bit, the kid seemed to become distant from his own self, not realizing he was over cooking one side of the fish and started munching down on it! "My word," Pieter thought in his head, "It's a good thing he's a saiyan and fish don't carry much infectious stuff, I suppose, but perhaps I shouldn't have asked who this guy is."The kid's shaking stopped a bit, his nervous demeanor subsiding. Pieter wondered if the kid was hungry to begin with, since it seemed he was hurting himself with his own energy! He was thinking about how he could get to know Purika, but not after what he saw in the broadcast, and he was ok with that. Pieter, however, had a different thought about this. "I would say that what has happened gives more reason to figure out who he is, Mattenes. This soldier, Purika, works for the SSE, a galactic Empire, that started preparing soldiers and going to war against the planets they were formerly in a treaty with for a thousand years without any remorse towards the people they were devastating. Not even those who were retired military of the SSE were safe from their attacks..."Pieter was speaking of his Dad, how when Pieter had went to engage the SSE Invasion with a dozen plus others and was slain by their very Queen at the time, who'd still been skulking around somewhere. He, however, wasn't gonna tell this to some random person. He continued, being direct to Mattenes now, "Because of what you told me, I'll be personally training you... Starting with cooking such a big fish. You gotta rotate the fish and cook evenly, so can easily remove those scales and get at that meat!"( Mattenes) |

Gulping down the meat with a little bit of struggle. Eating a vegetable only diet tends to shrink your stomach. Though since he ate the meat, even with it being overcooked he felt a feeling welling up within him. That horrid gut fire spread throughout his body, not intensifying but enlargening. Spreading evenly till it was even outside the boundries of his body. His fluctuating sparking ki that damaged him, for only just a moment it quelled into a flame. For years, Matt was like a person trying to hold back a breaking dam with his body pressed up against it, soles dug into the concrete and pushing with thier back. The longer it took to break, the more damage he was doing to himself. Even just eating meat and indulging a portion of those instincts, even just a little let water spurt through, easing the pressure of that dam so it didnt shatter. Though- if he'd done this with anything else he'd feel guilty. The dam is still here, and he's still holding it but for a moment it feels nicer.
Matt chuckled a bit, papping his chest and hiccuping from the giant gulp. "Whoops! A-aheheh!" He put the fish back on the fire, aknowledging the tip he gave first, roasting the not cooked side of the fish. "Sorry! I was so determined I forgot you cant just cook it all the way through like that."
Though as he thought of what he's said he responded in order. Even though he wanted to jump up in excitement from the proclamation of training. "So, The SSE Had treaties, and ended up breaking it... Even retired military?" He focused into the fire, forgetting to turn the fish again "That means... That means theres something wrong- if someone made treaties then-" He kept thinking along the lines of that. the fact that means that there are saiyans willing to hold onto peace.
In turn with the next topic though he was happy to know Pieter was going to train him "Thank you for letting me learn from you- I promise to do my absolute best" He says. Goodness in such a short time he was switching from nervousness, to anxiety, to nervousness, to boldness. And the fish was burning. He blinked and rotated the fish "Oh- dangit. I need to pay attention"
