It was a particularly cold morning but Ryson didn't mind. His ki was enough to keep him warm. His mother, on the other hand, had on layers upon layers of clothing trying to keep herself warm. They were walking to the market to pick up some groceries because the car had broken down the day before and his mother didn't trust him not to drop her if they tried to fly. Once they arrived they split up to get what they needed faster. About half an out passed and Ryson had almost everything he needed from his half of the list. The only things he needed now were some carrots and baking soda. While looking for the final two items he heard a loud scream and people panicking behind him. He swung around to see what was happening and saw someone flying above the crowd of shoppers. It was Akira, Ryson's longtime rival. He had someone over his shoulder struggling and panicking. Ryson couldn't make out who he was holding, however, because their rear end was facing him. Akira made eye contact with Ryson and turned away revealing his captive. It was his mother...
"Mom!? Akira!"
She didn't answer as she was too busy trying to get loose. Akira said nothing and flew off towards the mountain with a loud boom. Without hesitation, Ryson dropped his groceries and shot off into the sky, accidentally knocking over a few unsuspecting bystanders. He could see Akira's ki flaring in the distance, and sped up tremendously. He called up his brother, Ciro, through his scouter and updated him on the situation.
"He what!? I'll be there asap! Kick the shit out of him until I get there you hear me!?"
"You got it Ciro!"
Ryson sounded confident, but he was actually very scared. He had only beaten Akira once on his own. Usually, Ciro was there to team up against him. Maybe he could just stall him until his brother showed up.
"Yeah, that sounds like a good plan. Save my energy until Ciro gets here. Then we beat him and take mom back home."
Finally, Ryson caught up with Akira. He had led him to the peak of the mountain. His mother was passed out in the snow.
"WHAT did you do!?"
"Calm down little man, she passed out from panic before we landed."
Akira put on a malicious smile and snickered.
"This is low, even for you Akira."
Akira responded with sarcasm.
"Is it now? That really hurts my feelings Usagi..."
Then he let out a devilish laugh. When he finished his entire attitude changed. His body tensed up, his teeth started to grit, and his eyes sharpened.
"You've been a pain in my ass for a long time Usagi. You and your brother. My life was going places. I was on top, in charge. Then you two bugs showed up and stuck your noses in everything. You had to be heroes, even after beating you down so many times. I've had it! I'm going to be on top again! I'm going to kill you quickly. Then when you're brother finds his way here I'm going to kill him too. And when I'm done? I think I'm just gonna leave your precious mother here to freeze. You'll have a nice little-"
Ryson interrupted with an ear-shattering: "ENOUGH!"
"I'm done listening to your deranged psychotic dribble you FILTHY BASTARD!"
"Me!? Filthy!? That's funny coming from a dirty MUTT!"
Akira was referring to Ryson's mixed heritage, Human and Saiyan. Akira was a full-blooded Saiyan, and kind of a Saiyan Supremesist. But that was it. Ryson really had heard enough this time. He sprung off his feet and barreled his way over to Akira, planting a nice sold strike to the jaw, sending him off the top of the mountain. Ryson flew after him and called Ciro again.
"I'm almost there Ry."
"Good come to the top of the mountain and get mom somewhere safe and warm. Then come find me."
"Ryson wait-"
Ryson hung up and flew downwards towards the enemy. Akira steadied himself and quickly got his bearings.
"Why you-"
Ryson came down and landed another blow to his chest forcing Akira to the ground. Akira then lifted his legs and kicked Ryson in the stomach, sending him back into the air. The two came together in the air and began exchanging attacks. There was a clear gap in power between the two but Ryson held his ground anyways. Akira started pushing Ryson back, tiring him out slowly. As Ryson's attacks got weaker, Akira's stayed steady. Finally, Ryson's stance broke and Akira shoved a knee kick into Ryson, knocking the wind out of him and causing him to fall down into the snow below. Ryson was panicking, trying to get air back into his lungs. His body was hurting from the onslaught and he was getting sore. Akira made his way down to where the Saiyan hybrid was lying.
"I kind of like this. Maybe I'll drag this on a bit longer."
He couldn't see what happened but Ryson felt a blow to his side then sent him flying. Before he hit the ground Akira caught up and struck him again to launch him even farther. Akira struck him again but let him hit the ground this time.
"What? No more fight left? Typical. You're only a weak mutt after all."
Akira knelt down and yanked the scouter off of Ryson's ear. After putting it on himself he inspected Ryson with it.
"Just under 8,000. Wow. I thought you'd be a little tougher than that... I guess I overestimated you. Oh, look! I can see someone coming. You're brother maybe? Looks like he's just under you in power. Tsk Tsk. I was hoping for more fun. With me having double his power level this'll be too easy."
Akira grabbed Ryson by the collar and pulled him up into the air. He then pulled him close and whispered in his ear.
"I think I'll kill him first instead. And let you watch."
Time froze, and Ryson was brought back to a time long ago when he was just a child. He had walked onto the playground where a bunch of other kids was gathered in a circle. He pushed his way through and Akira was standing over his brother Ciro with a rock in his hand. Ciro was unconscious and bleeding heavily from a gash in his head. Ryson broke into a frenzy and blacked out. Moments later he had Akira by the arm. He brought his leg up and kicked, breaking the bone in two.
Ryson snapped back to the present. He was furious. Akira was playing with fire now. Ryson reached up and twisted Akira's arm hard enough to make him let go.
"You... You will not touch him. Or anyone else..."
"Trying to resist!? When you're half dead!? What is wrong with you!? I'll just-"
Ryson's scouter chirped in Akira's ear. Ryson's power level was shifting.
"W-what?"
Akira could see the anger on his face. Ryson clenched his fists and his body tensed. Akira dashed forward to attack with a ki infused fist but Ryson lashed out as ki erupted from his body. The force of the transformation knocked Akira on his behind but he quickly found his feet again. The powerful aura of ki around Ryson was immense. The scouter chirped again at the sudden change. Before Akira could try to attack again Ryson lifted his hands to the sky to charge his attack. Burning Heart Wave. Without even chanting the name of his attack like most fighters do, Ryson charged his attack to its full potential. A large shimmering orb of purple ki manifested above his head. Akira charged his own attack. A red ki beam that he'd named Furious Strike.
"Furious! STRI-"
Ryson moved the orb in front of him and it erupted into a large beam while he screamed in anger.
"STUFF IT YOU MONSTER!"
Akira barely managed to fire his attack before Ryson's Burning Heart Wave reached him. The red beam put up a tiny fight against the massive purple attack before giving out. The attack struck Akira and he tried to stop it with both hands. It didn't work. Akira was taken by the beam and they both crashed into the side of the mountain. The beam exploded at the receiving end and disappeared. Ryson still had his arms outstretched and was panting heavily. The powerful ki around him dissipated and his arms fell to his sides. He stumbled over to the massive hole in the mountain where Akira lay waiting. From the elbow down his arms were charred. His face and upper torso were burnt up, and his clothes were incredibly tattered. Ryson's scouter had fallen off before the explosion, so it survived. He picked it up and placed it back on his ear. Akira weakly raised his hand and charged a pitiful ball of ki in it. Ryson smacked the ball away and it fizzled out of existence. He then grabbed his arm and struck him one more time in the face, knocking him out.
"Stay the hell down."
He grabbed Akira by the collar and flew to the top of the mountain. His mother was gone so he called Ciro who told him that he had taken her to a hospital.
"I'm coming back now."
"Don't worry about it. Stay there, and tell the staff to prepare the ER."
"Are you ok?"
"I'm fine."
"Mom!? Akira!"
She didn't answer as she was too busy trying to get loose. Akira said nothing and flew off towards the mountain with a loud boom. Without hesitation, Ryson dropped his groceries and shot off into the sky, accidentally knocking over a few unsuspecting bystanders.
