That was some tough and interesting spar. As Natto fired his Continuous Energy Bullet, Xylo opted not to try and dodge it, which was quite a smart choice, as the rapidly succession of ki blasts fired would most definitely out-speed him and increase the damage he would receive eventually. He did, indeed, deflect the first four of them, but as he deflected the last one, Natto regulated his timing to seize some momentum and hit him straight to the chest with one of the ki blasts. ”Heh! Nailed it!” he thought to himself feeling more confident as he kept on firing the attack.
However, before he could land more blows, Xylo charged some ki attack, by gripping his left arm with his right hand, forming a sphere of yellow and purple energy, which he fired straight at Natto, shouting, telling the young saiyan to go to hell. The energy sphere flew toward him, engulfing the ki blasts that he kept on firing in hopes of stopping it. After 5 more blasts he was convinced it would not work, but it was already too late to dodge that blast.
– Crapbaskets!! – he grumbled, as he crossed his arms in front of his body, especially his chest and face, to block the attack. And it was a hell of an attack. After it exploded, Natto felt a huge pain on both of his arms, as they were scorched by the blast. They were also bleeding after the attack and to continue fighting like that would be a hell of pain, but he wasn’t one to give up easily. ”I cannot afford to take another one of those hits, otherwise he will most definitely defeat me!” he thought, trying to figure out a way to turn the tables. Using his arms would be difficult due to the pain he was feeling, but he could still use feints and aim for a knockout.
Using the smoke of the explosion, Natto rushed forward with all he’s got ready to dodge any impending attack on his way to get at close quarters with Xylo.
Were he to succeed his approach, he would throw him a roundhouse kick aimed to his face, only to miss it for a couple inches, making it feel like a mistake, to invite a counter. Immediately after, he would twist his body even more, to use the movement of his own body to increase the strength of the tail whip he was actually planning to use. His target was Xylo’s face. Word Count: 420 [Natto's arms are quite damaged, making it difficult for him to use them as weapons or blocking. He cannot take another one of those blows, or he will lose] |

Xylo let out a satisfied chuckle as his blast impacted upon the young Saiyan. His gravity training was already showing its usefulness, as the power of that attack was reminiscent of his power from an earlier age. Smoke obfuscated the Namekians vision, but he still had his senses to aid him. The Saiyan was already on the move, that much was certain. He had to keep on his toes and be ready for any attack, whether it be another barrage of energy or a simple melee strike.
The Namekian waited for any sign of offense. Though his senses were telling him where Natto was, he wanted to make sure he wasn't running head first into some kind of trap. "Where are you little Saiyan...I can sense you..." he murmured as he walked through the smokey battleground.
Suddenly, Natto began rocketing forwards. "Up close and personal..." mused Xylo internally. His opponent finally appeared from beneath the cover of smoke, and spun his body around in an attempt to round-house kick Xylo.
The attack missed the Namekians head, but just barely. It made Xylo question the attacks intent. "A feint perhaps? But where is his other attack coming from..."
He barely had time to figure out this conundrum. The Saiyan's body language betrayed his plan, but Xylo had no time to react. "Hrargh!" he blurted out as he was smacked by Natto's furry appendage. It hurt like hell, and the fact that he was now careening through the air didn't help much either.
Xylo spun through the sky, before stopping himself mid-air with a burst of Kiai. He looked down at his opponent, and couldn't help but laugh. "Ahahahah! Excellent Strategy! I haven't seen a Saiyan use his tail during battle in 5 years! Oh boy, that takes me back..." He placed his four-fingered hand to his chin, and a smile crept upon his face. Though it seemed he was no longer paying attention, he was, in reality, keeping his full attention on Natto.
If Natto came in for another melee attack, he would fly under the strike and attempt to punch the Saiyan in the gut, hopefully winding him. If his punch from below was a success, he would fly above Natto and lock his hands together, intending on slamming the both of them into Natto's backside.
(^This last line only happens if you try to attack, keep that in mind!)
(Fun Fact: Namekians only have four fingers!)

That namekian was quite something to resist such a blow to the face. When he got tail whipped, Xylo careened through the air. He spun shortly after that and stopped himself mid-air with a scream from his guts, and then he started laughing, which made a puzzled expression to take over Natto’s face. ”Why is this guy laughing?! I’m sure I hit him hard!” the young saiyan thought seconds before the namekian’s speech. Xylo said that it had been a while since a saiyan’s tail being used in battle for a while, making Natto frown his brows, staring at him at his damaged battle stance, with his arms not quite the way they should be due to the injuries they suffered.
Natto glared at his new thoughtful expression, with his four-fingered hand on his chin. ”An opening!” he thought and, whitout any further delay, he rushed, flaring his ghostly-white ki energy aura around his body. He couldn’t throw a good punch, so a kick would have to get the job done and as he approached melee range, he suddenly jumped and threw a flying kick straight to Xylo’s face, trying to seize the apparent lowering of his guard. But that was a feint.
As Natto approached, Xylo lowered his body and with a swift movement, he threw a powerful punch to his gut, making him spit blood and moan in pain, as he lost his breath at that very momento. – ARRGGH!! – he moaned loudly. Before he could get a grip of himself, he felt a huge pain to his back, as he was sledgehammered to the ground, opening a crater below him. He felt his ribcage snapping. ”The pain…” he complained inside his mind, as he felt that excruciating pain taking over his chest area.
However, the saiyan was a tough one and he keeled over as fast as he could, turning around and getting back on his feet, facing Xylo. He tried to take back his fighting stance but it was all flawed. Natto was panting heavily and there was quite a fair amount of blood coming out of his mouth as he stared at the namekian. – You… Tough… I… Not Lose… - he was almost passing out, but there was some huge determination lit as a cresset inside his eyes.
With the last of his energy, he started gathering some ki on his right hand, as he looked straight into Xylo’s eyes. Quickly a flame-like energy aura engulfed his right hand and he clenched that fist and kept on charging up his energy. ”This is my only chance… I’ve got to charge my attack as much as I can… I can’t allow myself to be defeated by this namekian!” he fired up his determination even more.

It seemed Natto had taken Xylo's bait. The Saiyan charged in on the offensive, and just as his kick was about to collide, Xylo dropped altitude causing the attack to whiff. The Namekian grinned satisfactorily as he rammed his fist into the Saiyan's gut, forcing blood to expel from the warriors mouth. Xylo moved quickly, flying upwards and slamming both of his fist sledge-hammer style into the Saiyans back. Natto began plummeting towards the ground, slamming into the rocky terrain and forming a crater.
It was surprising to see how much damage he had inflicted upon the Saiyan already. How is it that he is taking so much damage from these blows? It was then that Xylo realized it: This Saiyan was just a novice! He still wasn't in full control of his power, and he wasn't well practiced in the art of combat. He had to hand it to him though, his attacks had certainly packed their punches when they landed.
Natto had gotten up from his crater and slurred his words at Xylo. Though the Saiyan was barely standing, he was still determined to win. An excellent trait for a warrior to have! He noticed energy began to form in the Saiyans hands, it seemed he was about to shoot off an energy wave. The Namekian smirked and got into his own charging stance. Once again, he gripped his left arm with his right hand, and the yellow and purple orb formed in his palm. His indigo aura swirled around his tall form as his energy continued to climb higher.
"Let's see how much power you can put into that beam of yours!" Xylo challenged from afar.

Natto was inexperienced indeed. He spent most of his life abroad, conquering planets for the Saiyan Solar Empire and had almost no formal training. The only few times he had some instruction were when he was in Felucia, his first planet, as a child, learning some stances and attacks from the peaceful raccoon-like aliens that were native to the planet, and a few drills with his father, in between his time in Felucia and Argavat. After that, it had been only about a year since he was living on Planet Vegeta and enjoying a more formal training.
Xylo, on the other hand, was much older and much more experienced than the saiyan, making the difference on their power levels to be almost insignificant to the outcome of the battle. On top of that, he had stronger and more developed techniques that Natto would only develop later in life.
In response to Natto’s ki attack, Xylo started charging his ki energy, gripping his right and left hand together, forming a yellow and purple orb in between them. Natto’s scouter beeped like crazy, announcing that his attack were indeed strong, and the saiyan gritted his teeth. ”Dammit! I need to charge it further! But… I don’t know if it will work! Well, screw that! I’ll attack with all I have!” he decided as he intensified the ki charge on his right hand, flaring his ghostly-white ki aura as intense as he could. The flame-like blue energy engulfed his hand grew larger as he continued to gather his ki. His eyes were staring straight at Xylo’s and he would not give up.
Then, without further delay, Natto stretched his palm, firing a blue colored energy wave right at Xylo. – Eat this! Tyrant Lancer!!! – he shouted with every last bit of energy he had left on his body. It was his last resort and he was determined to do his very best.

This was it. The power of these two Warriors were reaching their peaks, and Xylo had even surpassed his normal power level by pouring even more energy into his palm. Electric sparks coated his arm, signifying his attack was ready.
He grinned evilly as he tensed his muscles, readying himself to fire off the attack as soon as the moment presented itself. Natto yelled out the name of his attack as the bright cerulean beam left the confines of his hand. Xylo yelled back with his own attacks name "Explosive Demon Wave!" as he said this, the energy that he had built up shot forward, speeding through the air to clash with Natto's beam.
The two attacks collided, and it was immediately clear who's was stronger. The beams crackled and sparked, pushing against one another, but Xylo's beam was slowly pushing back Natto's. It would only be a matter of time until the beam reached Natto now.
"Ahaha! I guess this is the end of our spar!"

As soon as Natto fired his blue energy wave towards Xylo, he replied by shooting his at the same direction. The two attacks collided and started crackling and sparkling making the ground shatter below it. The wind went crazy with the power struggle that happened. For a split of a second, Natto thought he had a chance, but quickly his energy wave was being pushed back. ”Too strong! I’m… Too weak now!” he concluded, gritting his teeth as he had no other ace up his sleeves.
Natto could only protect himself now, to avoid a more serious injury and he stopped his own attack, crossing his arms in front of his face and closing his eyes tightly with a frowned brow, as he waited for the inevitable blow. The ki blast hit him straight with a big power level remaining that was more than enough to throw him to the ground, rolling over the dirt like a cloth in a washing machine.
He lost his consciousness a couple seconds after the hit and lied completely defeated on the ground. He was the strongest fighter, but Xylo had much more experience and that made a difference, since the gap in their powers wasn’t huge. In the end, power is not everything. A more resourceful fighter will always have a chance of winning against a more powerful one, and that was a lesson the young saiyan had just learned the hard way. Word Coung: 241 [Natto fainted] |

Xylo's beam smashed into the Saiyan, and another massive smoke plume had arisen. He was certain the attack had finished the job, but he had to keep himself ready just in case. Through the cloud, he heard a mighty thud, that sound along with the massive drop in sense-able Ki indicated Natto had just collapsed.
The Namekian smirked as he slowly descended to the ground, landing near the unconscious Saiyan as the smoke cleared. "Hehe, you did well Saiyan, you just need a bit more training," Xylo quipped. He wasn't certain the Saiyan would be able to hear him, but regardless, his compliment was truthful.
As he turned to leave, a sudden burst of pain assaulted his senses. His adrenaline had finally worn off it seemed, and the pain from the tail swipe in particular finally kicked in. "Ugh, you did more damage than I thought...maybe you aren't the only one who needs more training."
He floated into the sky, but before taking off he tapped his communicator and spoke into it "This is Xylo, send a group of messengers to my current location. They'll need to deliver an unconscious Saiyan to the nearest med bay."
Before the person on the other side could reply, Xylo clicked his communicator off. It was a bit uncharacteristic of him to let an opponent live, much less to order someone to be sent to a med-bay. However, this battle was different. Natto was on the same team, and this battle wasn't supposed to kill the poor bastard! Hopefully the Red Eclipse messengers would be able to safely deliver the Young Saiyan to safety, because he wanted to have a re-match one day.
