This Thread is DE - Death Enabled Please, no spectators or surprise assistants for either character!
Taiga had hoped to join the Queen's side at this dire time for Arcose, but one of those damnable Saiyans had to impede him! Taiga finds a relatively secluded, but vastly open area. Yes, this would do to serve as the area within which he would crush this Saiyan filth.
The Arcosian rapidly descends to the ground, landly deftly and turning to look in the direction he came from, waiting for the Saiyan to arrive.

Hitora had followed the damned changling for quite some time, until he was out of the range of the power ball that his comrades were preparing. It was annoying, but he was still a good ways away from where the creature had apparently set down. That much he could tell from his own skills at sensing Ki. He figured he’d try to throw him off if the worm didn’t have any ability to sense Ki. Taking a sharp right far from the being’s line of site Hitora would fly a good bit away and then downwards. He was going to use the terrain to his advantage to cloak him as best he could. If the changling could sense Ki or had a scouter it didn’t matter what he did at his point. Hitora quickly approached the man, the rubble of buildings hiding him and his aura from sight as he approached quickly. Once he was within audible range of the changling he kicked his speed to full and blasted right for the red and black asshole. Hitora then without waiting threw several hard punches all without his feet touching the ground or even coming close to the ground.
“NO MORE HIDING YOU CHANGLING ASSHOLE! I AM GOING TO KILL YOU HERE AND NOW!” Hitora then shot his leg out from under him and attempted to throw several hard kicks at the creature, each one as strong as the last, and all of them aimed for his head and upper body, if the blasted alien moved to block the attacks Hitora would suddenly switch up to aiming for his lower body and the waist, his brown Saiyan tail curled around his waist as a sort of second belt. This fight would be Hitora’s and Hitora’s alone. He needed no help from other Saiyan’s or members of the Red Eclipse. Hitora was a strong and independent Saiyan. After several volleys of punches and kicks Hitora felt that it was time to mix it up and started firing Ki blasts at the being not even caring if they were able to hit their target or not, only used as part of his seemingly endless combo to try and throw the bastard off balance so that he can score his stronger hits. Hitora smirked an evil smirk, one that said “this is for keeps, the loser of this fight will not be going home!”

Although Taiga could not sense Ki, his sense of hearing is more than adequate. Hitora's sudden burst from his hiding place drew the Arcosian's attention immediately. Taiga blocks the first punch with his left forearm, and parries the proceeding punches. He backpeddles out of the path of the first kick, and blocks the next kicks with his forearms and knees in a tight, close-to-the-body defense.
As Hitora's targeting shifts, so too do Taiga's defenses. Instead of blocking, Taiga weaves left, right, back, and down; ducking and weaving around the blows. One punch lands hard across Taiga's cheek, causing the Arcosian to take a step back to re-balance himself. And that is when the ki blasts came raining at him. Gritting his teeth, Taiga jumps back, backhanding weaker shots and dodging through the rest; which proved to be quite a task in and of itself. There seemed to be no purpose, no tactic to the ki blasts' paths.
Taiga suddenly shoots straight up into the air, stopping only once he had gained a position above the Saiyan. Taiga lets out a puff of breath, and his anger seems to turn into enjoyment.
"Heheheh.... HAHAHAHAHAAA!! What an interesting display!" Taiga laughs. This is something that he'd needed; a challenge! "You, Saiyan, I've no intention of hiding, as you put it. On this day, let us enjoy our battle!"
Taiga drops into his fighting stance, and his aura burns brightly around him. His aura flares, and Taiga rockets straight at Hitora, glee and murder glinting in his red eyes. He first spins around to the right, lashing out with a vicious knee aimed at Hitora's head, following up with his tail. Using this momentum, Taiga thrusts his left elbow at Hitora's nose and mouth. With his free right hand, a small ball of crimson Ki appears, and the Arcosian fires it at the Saiyan's chest from near point-blank range. The blast would certainly not kill the Saiyan if taken, but damage would surely result.

Hitora deftly dodged the knee that was aimed at his head by simply swaying back. When the tail came flying at him he attempted to catch it with his hand. The Elbow nearly caught him unawares, but Hitora turned his head with the blow severely cutting any power the blow would have had to the point where it did no damage to him whatsoever. Before the Ki Blast could even have a chance to form the young Saiyan warrior lifted the reptilian by his tail and slammed him hard into the ground should the prior catching of the tail have succeeded. If his grab wasn’t successful the Ki Blast would be knocked out of the way easily by the experienced warrior’s skills. After either scenario Hitora would try to then land several punches aimed at various points, all thrown fast enough that it would be virtually impossible to block or dodge all of them. When the punching started Hitora would stay with the Changling like white on rice, like a bad smell on shit, he would do his damndest to land a hit no matter what it took. Hitora was beginning to not enjoy even simply LOOKING at this mishmash of colors!

To his ire, Taiga felt his body lurch as the Saiyan dragged him through the air, and slams him into the ground, cracking the stone beneath him. Using the force of the throw, Taiga rolls backwards and jumps to his feet, sliding back several meters. He barely had enough time to bring up his arms in defense against the Saiyan's onslaught.
The first punch hits its mark, but the Arcosian manages to intercept the next several attacks. Rather than be pushed back, this time Taiga stays with the Saiyan. He takes hits to the face and stomach, but manages to block or dodge shots at his vital points. Taiga steps in towards the Saiyan, leaving barely inches between them, and his tail shoots up from the left, aiming to strike the Saiyan under the chin.
It became wholly clear that the Saiyan was an even match for him, making the battle all the more enjoyable to Taiga. His grin grows with each blow taken and given. Battle... this is what he lived for!

Hitora was satisfied feeling each hit that he delivered to the Arcosian, each one delivering a satisfying thud sound as he hit. However he was caught soon unawares by the bastards tail. Hitora was forced back a few paces, but he decided to make him think the damage did much more damage than it really had done, he then spit at the ground and flew backwards, towards what used to be a densely populated section of a town based on how close together the taller buildings were. He used his Ki Sense to keep a mental note of where the lizard was and hid in one of the buildings, hoping that the bastard couldn’t sense his Ki or saw him at all. Hitora then began to charge his attack, he placed his hands drawn back behind him as two blue orbs began to form in both, a slight glow that would be hidden thanks to him being in the exact center of the building he had chosen to hide in, the various walls and such protecting him from direct sight even with the light of his attack. Hitora wanted to end this now so he could join with the queen in the main assault group.

"Where do you think YOU'RE going, Saiyan?!" Taiga shouts, flying after Hitora. He follows the Saiyan into the remains of where a town once stood, but the crafty Saiyan somehow leaves his sight. Angered by this, Taiga rockets out of the town toward the far outskirts, and then flies skyward. He stops his ascent after a thousand feet or so, and furiously searches the destroyed town below. "Now who is hiding, you monkey coward!?"
When the Saiyan failed to appear, Taiga's expression became frustrated. The Saiyan seemed so keen on fighting him, but one well placed strike had the Saiyan falling back to regroup?! Taiga clenches his fists, thinking of his options; one such idea comes to mind.
"Very well, Saiyan... I'll just have to flush you out!!" Taiga calls down. He thrusts his right hand forward, aiming down at the town, and grips his forearm with his left hand. From this distance, he can blow away these ruins, leaving the Saiyan with nowhere to hide. Taiga's aura flares, and a crimson ball of ki, crackling with black electricity, forms in front of his open palm. His aim is generalized, fixed primarily on the center of the ruins.
There is no doubt that Queen Wyntre would be angered by this decision, but he had no choice. He must defeat the Saiyan and help the Queen defend Arcose! His intentions set, Taiga fires the crimson stream of ki at the center of the ruined town. The blast would cause a massive shockwave, blowing away the nearest structures, and would cause others to collapse on themselves.
Flew away and far above the ruins Charged Ki Blast Beam to 33% and fired at ruin center KP 2/3

Hitora had heard the taunts of the alien but ignored them, charging his attack as much as he could possibly do so. However once the Arcosian had started to charge his attack, Hitora knew that he would have to relocate as he charged his attack. Luckily the building had a sub terrain entrance that he’d noticed on the way in. Running towards it, his hands behind him still glowing dimly with blue light, the young Saiyan kicked the door in, breaking it off its hinges, and jumped down into the basement. The basement level ended up having a strange tunnel under it, deciding to risk it down here instead of above ground the Saiyan ran down the tunnel, when suddenly he felt the ground rumbling, thankfully the attack didn’t break the ground, however the buildings above were likely all destroyed by now. Suddenly however a section ahead of him collapsed, the Saiyan took that as a Sign that it was time to let his prey see what he had been cooking up for him. Hitora then let his Ki build up again and he flew out through the hole in the ground and towards the creature at full speed.
Once he was within audible range of the creature he threw his hands forwards, aiming his attack towards the man and fired it, by the time the man would have had a chance to react the beam would be inches away with Hitora yelling “BUSTER CANNON!” Hitora was showing his strength and experience at fighting. Once the attack either hit or missed and hit something in the distance Hitora would decide to taunt his foe “I thought you changlings were able to change, to meet any situation and overcome it, I guess that was a lie like most other things said about your race. You are all honorless cowards who couldn’t fight your own battles on your own! You sicken me!” Hitora would then begin charging his Ki again, not even slightly tired after firing off his strongest attack thanks to all of the training he had done in his time since having learned the attack itself. Hitora’s eyes were scanning not only the skyline but the ground and his senses attuned to searching for the lizard’s Ki Signature. Hitora had no intention of letting this scumbag survive to report back to his superiors or to even let him see his family once again.

Taiga watches the event unfold below; as he had predicted, most of the buildings in and around the center of the ruined town were obliterated, while others struck by the shockwave were toppled over or collapsed on themselves. There is no smirk, no sign of enjoyment now. Only disappointment. The bright crimson sphere dissipated, leaving only smoke and debris rising from the ground. However, through his peripheral vision, Taiga spotted movement; the Saiyan. He turns to fully face Hitora, dropping into his fighting stance. He sees the Ki in the Saiyan's hands, and his eyes widen.
The moment Hitora fired his blast, Taiga was ready. Utilizing his speed, the Arcosian sidesteps the blast; but only by mere centimeters. He could feel the heat and strength of the blast as it passes him; but he doesn't take his eyes off his foe. He hears and feels the blast detonate in the distance; whipping up gusts of wind blowing against his back. He listens to the Saiyan's taunts, but they are empty, meaningless. It would take more than simple childish remarks to throw him off balance."That was quite a blast, Saiyan. That would have been a problem if I let it hit me." Taiga replies, chuckling. He holds up a hand, as if lecturing a child. "Yes, that certainly would have tipped the scales in your favor. But just in case you didn't notice, you and I are somewhat even in skill; so you'll have to try harder than that!"The smirk again appears on his face, showing the Saiyan disdain."And to think that you're having such trouble; when I am the WEAKEST of the Empire! Oh what a SHAME you must be to the Saiyan race." Taiga laughs at the Saiyan, intending to make Hitora see the futility of attacking Arcose. "I think it's about time we ended this farce. I wont kill you, but I WILL defeat you. So unless you still have a trick up your sleeve, I promise that you will fall."Taiga's tucks in his body, and rockets towards the Saiyan. He fires three small Ki balls at Hitora, and suddenly shifts direction; arcing to the left and coming in at the side. The Ki shots would reach Hitora first, while Taiga kept his sights solidly on the Saiyan, ready to shift direction again if he moved. As soon as he is directly near the Saiyan, Taiga lashes out with a swinging kick with his left leg. He spins with them momentum of the attack, Taiga's left elbow shoots out at Hitora's jaw, followed by his right knee aimed at the Saiyan's stomach.
Spotted Hitora charging, evaded blast. Ignored the taunt, and shot back with his own. Attacked Hitora with a kick, elbow, and knee. No KP used. ((OOC - I'm having fun with this Thanks for helping me get used to the battle system of the site, Hitora.))

Hitora scowled when he saw that his attack had missed, but he had no time to worry about the outcome of the attack. Quickly came the Arcosian, and quickly went his time to think about what his move should be. Hitora quickly used one of his newest techniques, the After Image to suddenly appear behind the monster when he went to attack, however he left a slight present as he did a shadowy version of himself that in the heat of battle would more than be enough to trick the Arcosian hopefully. Hitora then wasted no time and began to wail on the creatures back, dead center on its spinal column, each punch as strong as he could make it, occasionally adding a hard kick into where its ribs should be, hopefully the attack would work and he’d catch the creature unawares, not even allowing his taunts to enter his mind as he continued his attack. This would not be the end for him, he would not die on some worthless rock of a planet, no he would kill this arcosian, he would kill as many Arcosian’s as he could and then he would go back to Vegeta for the victory feast.
Dodged attacks with AFTER IMAGE KP used 3/3 Attacked Taiga from behind with punches and kicks, aimed at spine and ribs.

Taiga's eyes widen as his kick passes through the spot Hitora should have been, causing him to halt his planned assault. He turns to look behind himself, but the Saiyan already had him. He feels the hits rain onto his body, infuriating him. To defend himself, Taiga swings his thick tail, aiming at the Saiyan's right hip, and fires several small Ki blasts backwards. If the Saiyan was a glutton for punishment, he would find it in this counter move.
Freeing himself from the Saiyan's assault, Taiga spins around and puts some distance between them. He had to think, he needed time to devise a plan. Suddenly, Taiga rockets away from the Saiyan, diving into a freezing cold lake. To an Arcosian, such water was nothing to them; but to warm-blooded creatures like the Saiyans, diving into the water would be suicide. He dives as deep as the water goes, and settles on the bottom. Not requiring to breathe, Taiga crosses his arms over his chest, staring up at the light flickering down from the surface, narrowing his eyes.
He and the Saiyan are even. But that wasn't even the problem. Taiga looks to his right, vaguely in the direction of the palace. The Saiyans came prepared; and they seemed hell-bent on taking Arcose. So what options are there? Even if he manages to kill this Saiyan, what about the others? Surely there were more powerful Saiyans; which means that he'd have to make a choice between facing foes he cannot defeat, or death. It was a heavy decision...
Finally making his choice, Taiga looks up at the light, and holds up his hands. Small balls of crimson Ki form, and Taiga begins firing hundreds of weak Ki blasts towards the surface. Hoping this would distract the Saiyan, Taiga turns and swims into the dark of the lake, finding a small cavern he had found long ago in geological references during his boring job at the tower, and slips through. The cavern is tight and dark, a perfect escape route for him.
Taiga curses mentally at himself for fleeing, but push came to shove. Arcose would likely fall this day. But it would not remain in the Saiyans' clutches; this he swore. But this escape plan wouldn't matter if the Saiyan DID find a way to follow him. The Arcosian gets the inkling that the warrior would not be so keen to let him get away so easily. If the Saiyan does follow, Taiga is prepared to fire ki blasts in the narrow tunnel and collapse every inch of it behind him if he has to.

Hitora grunted as the tail slammed into his right hip hard, grunting painfully. The Saiyan watched as the changling scum suddenly took off, flying away from him with a good clip of speed. Hitora had no intention of letting him escape, batting aside the blasts from the Arcosian. Hitora then blinked when suddenly the Arcosian disappeared over a body of water, disappearing somewhere. Hitora hovered over the water a good fifty meters above. Hitora then waited, wondering who would make the first move, how long he’d be forced to wait for the bastard to surface. It stayed like this for several tense moments before the answer was made apparent, the Arcosian would make the first move in restarting the fight when hundreds of weak Ki Blasts suddenly began to fill the sky all coming from the water, each one easily batted away by the Saiyan. It seemed that the Arcosian was ready to come out of the water and was about to, but after several more seconds of waiting for the creature to emerge, Hitora was confused “where in the name of Vegeta did you go you Arcosian scumbag!” Hitora then began to try to sense where the being was.
He stretched his senses as far as he could, but by the time he found where he’d gone, he realized that no matter how fast he was able to fly he wouldn’t be able to catch up to the cowardly Arcosian. Hitora was needed elsewhere in the invasion and couldn’t let his time be absorbed by one coward. Hitora then flew towards where he felt Queen Zucceta’s energy signature as fast as he possibly could, he was going to be of use to her or die trying at least, to show he was worthy of her teachings and her time.
Let Taiga go Returning to main thread PL please

Hi Taiga, Hitora. Fun fight, this one! The monkey goddess approves.
Taiga, you wrote 1717 words for a total of 2405 pl bring you to 6434.
Hitora, you wrote 1712 words for a total of 3083 pl bringing you to 42,353.
Equally matched in wordcount! Equally matched in power! If it weren't for the Arcosian PL penalty, you'd be equally matched in gains!
