Riku stared at Aspa, listening to his words carefully and then perked an eyebrow when he heard him say the teams. He quickly turned to his hybrid partner and saw as Takao approached Komat, his speech to low to hear however. The hybrid's previous outburst had showed Riku he had guts, and courage, especially against people stronger than him. This made Riku have respect towards Nesco. Riku slowly approached him, his arms folded and stopped a few feet away from him. He took his scouter off and placed it on a boulder near them and turned his attention to Nesco.
"Nesco... You have guts, I like that. Now listen, I'm not trying to be the boss or whatever but I have an idea."
Riku looked into the hybrids cyan eyes, still a bit intrigued by the certain potential he felt in Nesco. He closed his eyes and spoke again. "Listen, Nesco, those two are basically equal to us both right now. The basic strategy here could be try to double team one of them. That's not what we should do. I was thinking, a more... Maybe a bit risky but could work. See, I was thinking if I get double teamed, you could maybe shoot a blast at one of them. I could probably hold them off for a bit until you charge up a bit. Trust me, I'd prefer being the one hit so you can attack from behind. However, I do have another idea. See, we can each take one of them, you take Takao and I take Komat. In the middle of battle we can "exchange" partners and switch who we're attacking. This way they would think we're going straight for them, but really we could catch them off guard and strike different people. This could also keep them from double teaming because we could mislead them into attacking whoever isn't their target. At the same time however, if they do manage to catch one of us in a double team, its important to stop the attack STRATEGICALLY. We can't just jump into the assault willy nilly, we could get attacked both at the same time. It's just a suggestion, if you have any better ideas I'll gladly listen."10 minutes... We'd better be prepared for whatever they've got..."
Riku kept his eyes closed the whole time as he spoke and opened them to see what Nesco had thought of his strategies. He was a decent strategist in his mind but maybe not to others. He waited for the hybrids response and took into account the time Aspa had said.

Komat groaned and ran a hand back through his hair, looking Takao up and down. Turning away from Riku and Manesco he responded to Takao after clicking his tongue and lowing his voice. "There might be advantages to going for either of them first, depending on which we go for first. Neither of them have a tail so we'll need to be sure to watch our's. If we're not allowed to break anyone apart that badly we also should try and avoid damaging any bones." He stretched out the fingers of one hand in front of himself, hiding the digits behind his chest and making raking motions before making a fist with the other hand and running said raking fingers across it. "Rather we can aim at the muscles, that'll save them from any actual injuries. Though I must admit I don't know much about the half-blood's physiology."
He clicked his tongue and stretched out his fingers once more, looking at the other pair a moment before turning back to Takao. "If we could get ahold of the half-blood first, that would be convenient but I'm more than sure the tailless one is going to go out of his way to protect him if he needs to. We need to be well and prepared to fight them split as well, if that becomes the case - it would likely be better for me to fight the tailless one. But planning around them attacking who we want won't do much good, I don't think. We could chance that the half-blood is on edge, but I'm fairly sure he's more-a-less just angry now. If we don't allow them to separate us too far, we should be more than fine though. I think." Taking hands he put them back to back and wrapped his wrists around each other. "We shouldn't ever pass front to front, either. This should let us effectively use energy attacks as well, so long as we aren't using any that would permanently injure anyone."
Shifting his head away from Takao he looked at the surrounding area and strangely enough sniffed at the air. Staring at Riku and Manesco for a moment, with his gaze tempoarily shifting to both Aspa and Tomoroko as well before turning back to Takao. "And don't forget you'll have much more time to have disdain for me later."

Nesco listened to Aspa's instructions carefully, nodding as he was given his partner. Then, upon being released to discuss strategies with their partner, Manesco approached at the same time Riku did, meeting him half-way. Honestly he was fine with this pairing, as he seemed to be the relatively normal one out of those who had introduced themselves. Nesco only nodded at Riku's comment about having guts, but listened to Riku's ideas intently, comparing them to the strategies in his own mind. Admittedly he was more of an adaptation fighter himself, so he wasn't sure how much he would be able to contribute to the pre-battle plan. However, upon hearing out the tactics suggested he noted some complications and replied once Riku had finished speaking. "Your plan sounds like it could work, but there are some other things that should be put on the table before we make a final decision in that regard. Namely, what my skills are, what your skills are, and what we can or can't do." He paused briefly to make sure his point is understood before continuing. Keeping his voice low enough to keep their conversation private. "If we want to work together in an optimal way, we should figure out how to play to our strengths. With that being said, I'll start." Manesco took a calming breath, somehow he wasn't sure Riku was going to appreciate the weaknesses he was going to start with. "Firstly, I can't fly. I know, kind of a big set-back when faced with flying opponents, unfortunately it's beyond my control right now, so we'll have to work around it and adjust. I'm fairly agile, and while I'm better on the ground, it isn't -impossible- for me to make a few ground-to-air maneuvers, just don't expect them to come in rapid succession." He paused again, making sure he had conveyed the information accurately. "Next, I'm primarily a close-quarters fighter, I don't have any long range or fancy ki-blasts like some, but I'm pretty confident in my fighting skill. This might prove tricky if they decide to stay at a distance, but I'm also confident in my evasive capabilities."He kept eye contact with Riku, never breaking a serious demeanor despite obviously sharing weaknesses most other Saiyans would be too proud to admit. "I agree that double-teaming isn't the ideal strategy for us, as it's probably the most obvious method to take in this particular instance. I'm also inclined to agree with your concept of mixing it up, but unfortunately we still have to consider the weaknesses we'll be working around. I feel like speed and technique might get us through this battle faster than simple brute force." Nesco smirks a little bit as a final thought comes to him, "And, should worse comes to worse. There's one thing I know I am for sure, and that's durable."

As Aspa just quickly gave them her name, she gave them a little wave as if confirming who she was before moving to perch herself next to Aspa as he had motioned. She looked at each of the saiyans in turn, recognizing only one in whom she had antagonized once before in an attempt to get him to work that little bit harder.
"They're definitely a rowdy bunch... I wonder how they'll do against Manesco... he's good."
She stated simply before turning her head to look at Aspa, a grin clearly visible on her face. She would have fun watching them fight and seeing what it was they could do. Not only that, it was amusing to her to see Aspa take on such an authoritative tone. She was used to him being serious, but never quite this commanding. It was nice to see...
Whenever he began talking about his ideas about their own spar, she would nod slowly as she listened. Yet again she would be up against a saiyan much stronger than her and expected to be able to hold her own, which she silently assured herself that she could. She would attempt to put on one hell of a show anyways! and hopefully that would lead this lot to wanting to gain as much strength as they had.
Her little burst of excitement at the prospect of a fight slowly began to fade away however as he mentioned the incident, assuring her that in no way had it been her fault, it had been Natto's and his own... however even hearing it from him, she couldn't help but feel like it was.
"I just... if I had thought of your safety before the fight it wouldn't have happened you know..?"
She mumbled lowly, looking back over towards the other saiyans for a distraction.

A training event huh? Kaile didn't much care for training at the moment... Not with what she had discovered over the past few weeks as one of the Saiyans most Elite. Kaile had to both talk to her Parents and Zucceta, specifically Zucceta first. It was time she finally learned more, learned why she was hated so much... She'd been beaten up and stomped on, left to die, sent on suicide missions... She understood it was a society of 'the strongest live' but still... She knew something else was up after almost 30 years of this shit. But Zucceta wasn't due back for a long time, so perhaps training would get her mind off of this shit long enough for her to be able too actually focus or something. Regardless of whether or not it would, Kaile decided it was probably best if she simply went to this 'training event'... Maybe she'd find someone who knew her.
Kaile took off from the Canyon she'd come too rather regularly, it was the one that she was dumped in what seemed like just a few days ago. She didn't know why she kept coming back here, maybe she hoped those Saiyans would be here so she could kill them all... Maybe it was something else. Regardless she flew quickly to where the message said to come and when she arrived she noticed there was already quite a few people here so she dropped to the ground and moved over to the group slowly, keeping her guard up just in case any of them jumped her themselves.

Aspa sat there and watched the two teams strategize within the timelimit that he had set. While waiting, he heard Tomo say something to him. It seemed like she blamed herself for what happened with his leg. Aspa switched his attention from the teams to look at her.
“Tomo, I don’t blame you for what happened. It was my fault, well ninety percent my fault and ten percent Natto’s fault. I should have kept my body close to his and not attempted to redirect his mouth blast by kicking his head away from me. He should have used less power while sparring, with us who were so much weaker than he was. It’s not your fault, Tomo.
He stared straight into her eyes while he talked to her. He didn’t want to see her beat herself up about it. It really wasn’t her fault, and he wouldn’t let her blame herself for it. It truly was his own and Natto’s fault. If he hadn’t gone into shock his suit would’ve probably been able to reattach his leg, if Natto didn’t accidentally vaporize the leg.
“After their spar, would you do me the honor of sparring with you to show them how Elites fight?”
Aspa felt a power level of a thousand five hundred approach the grounds. He felt that it was Natto, come to see how he was doing with the training. He would look in his direction, before sensing another Saiyan coming to their location. It wasn’t a energy he was familiar with, it felt female but he couldn’t truly tell who it was until they got there.
Seeing the woman arrive, and go on the defensive against them, Aspa would stand and jump off of the boulder. He would walk towards her with a smile on his face.
“Welcome, to this first group training session. Unfortunately, there are not enough people for you to join in the spar. For now, why don’t you join me and Tomo in watching the others spar?”
He would be friendly towards her, because she was sort’ve familiar to him but he didn’t know why. He probably met her somewhere when he was doing missions with other people and had forgotten.
“I am Aspa, of House Bloodburn. The woman sitting on the boulder is Tomoroko. And the others can introduce themselves when they’re not busy.”
Walking back to the boulder he would hop back on it before looking at her.
“Don’t worry, no one will hurt you here, outside of sparring minus regular spar wounds. I guarantee it.”
Aspa would sit back down before watching the two teams. Raising his voice he would call out how much time they have left to strategize.
“FIVE MINUTES LEFT!!”
Aspa would sit down to wait for the sparring to begin. Planning on telling them what they did wrong at the end of the sparring session, he would crack his knuckles lowly. Looking back at the woman that had just joined them.
“If you don’t mind, why don’t you spar against me with Tomo here? It’ll help you out some in a real fight if you ever have to face someone stronger.”

Brocko sat on top of a tall rock, listening to the music on the phone his first friend, Thunda had gave him. As weird as it sounded, the first song Brocko had decided to listen to was "Shoop" by Salt-N-Pepa. Unlike the trash Brocko had anticipated it to be two years ago, it was great and even now, the Saiyan, who had his hands in the Pockets of his white cloak began to Jam to the song and sang along.
"You're packed and your stacked, 'specially in the back, Sister wanna thank your mother for a Butt like that." As he sang, he looked down and saw a Dinosaur run by the rock and quite frankly, the beat and hype of the song made him want to kill or injure something.
So, jumping down from the Rock, he landed on the Dinosaur's Back. Strangely enough, it was headed toward a group of Saiyans that were gathered in the Wasteland. He decided to not only check it out but destroy the Dinosaur in the process. Because of this, Brocko let a tiny ball of Ki float into the Dinosaur. When he got close enough, he would use his TNT move to blow it up still singing in the meanwhile. "Can I get some fries with that shake-shake booty, if looks could kill you would be an uzi! You're a shotgun-bang! Wassup with that thang! I wanna know, how does it hang?"
A few moments later he and the Dinosaur had arrived at their destination and Brocko leaped off of the Dinosaur's back, landing a few yards above it and into the middle of the group of Saiyans. He then raised his hands and cupped both of them. "Straight up, wait up, hold up Ms. Lover. Like Purinso said..." The youth than pushed down as if pushing a switch, causing the Dinosaur to explode. "You're a crazy mutha-" As bits of dinosaur meat started to rain a few yards away, Brocko noticed a man in a blue outfit.
His heart started to beat fast as his eyes became filled with shock as he backed up, almost falling a few times. "N-no way...you're supposed to be dead." But he wasn't...his "dead" cousin, Aspa was alive! Alive! "TOTOMA!! YOU'RE ALIIIIVE!!! WAIT TILL' MOM AND DAD HERE THIS! EVERYONE'LL BE SO HAPPY!!" The full-bloods emotions quickly changed from sad to happy as he began to skip around in a circle. "Totoma's Alive! Totoma's Alive! WOO HOOOOOO!!!"

From what he was seeing, the teams were talking to try to come up with a strategy and that was pretty cool; if they could manage to find a way to work together on such a situation, and if they managed to make a good strategy even though it was their first time working together that would show much about their own abilities and potentials. Aspa and Tomoroko were also talking, and Natto couldn’t see what they were intending to do. Hopefully they would do more than just watch the whole training of the weaker saiyans, but if they did only watch it was fine either way, they could act as some sort of coaches. ”It would be cool if they did that… I actually want Tomo to start developing leadership skills… Aspa is already a good leader on his own, so it’s just another training for him, but for Tomo would be really interesting!” he thought to himself, as he stared at them from the cliff he was sitting on.
Then, another saiyan approached. She had this lower middle-class tier power level of 2.439, but Natto didn’t remember her from any database or from Vegeta at all, which made him raise one of his eyebrows. ”Now… Who’s that one?” he thought to himself, as he saw her heading the way of the training group. He didn’t become alerted since she wasn’t strong enough to mean trouble and was probably also looking for training, but it would be good to go and greet her and know who she was after the training session was over, so he took a mental note of that.
For his greater surprise, another man came riding a freaking dinosaur towards the group. His power level was still on low-class level, being only around two thousand, but something caught Natto’s attention: he was screaming a saiyan’s name. It was “Totoma”, but he couldn’t find any Totoma there, and it was definitely a male’s name, so it couldn’t be the name of the woman who just came. He mentioned something of being alive, and he was really near Tomoroko and Aspa. ”What the hell is that? And who is Totoma?” Natto was getting rather curious, but he chose to remain on his cliff, watching from afar. Word Count: 379 [Guys! I'm here pretty much as an observer! So...

(I wanted to wait, but Natto is going to be gone for a week, and Takao and Komat haven't logged in, in days. I would like PL from this thread. Leaving, everyone post what you want and I'll turn it in and make a new thread.)
