Reikiko had put everything in an efficient, but a bit brutal, manner. Folding his arms in understanding at her harshness, she did have a point; without training, a lot of the people assembled here would likely perish in the trials to come. He knew right then and there that he was one of those referred to by the statement. It stung a little bit and ate at his pride, but he kept a calm, confident, and warm smile. After speaking his piece to the child Etoru, he nodded between Bing and the little guy. ''No, no, you misunderstand.'' He smiled warmly, leaning down to Etoru by balancing on his heels and crouching. ''I've been able to sense you since I got here. You've got quite a lot of power and potential. My worry is that.. well, young as you are, I worry for the scars this conflict may cause on you. This is going to be an ugly, terrible battle, but if you have the drive for it and don't care for the possible consequences, I respect you all the more. I trust Bing's judgement. Don't think for a second that I don't think you deserve to be here.'' In a way, it was sort of inspiring; this child was much stronger than he ever could have hoped to be at the same age. It was clear he had a colossal amount of raw potential, and after Bing's announcement, he only hoped the boy would be matched up with a suitable training partner to bring that out. This feeling was further elevated, his eyes widened, when the boy released a titanic amount of power for his age; the only way he'd be able to match such an output was in Ro'Shi state! The boy had certainly earned his spot among those gathered. It only served to motivate him all the more as he shifted his eyes between his possible candidates, but after a few moments he huffed a calm breath. He was on more or less neutral or better terms with everyone gathered here. It would have been far more interesting to see who chose him, rather than vice versa. It was at that moment that he finally noticed the red-haired swords-woman out of the corner of his eye. Rolling his eyes to his peripheral, he inspected her visually; she seemed frozen up, for some reason. Was it because of the high energy readings she was feeling if she could sense as well? Her face had flushed a tinge of red after laying eyes on Liang, and he smiled to her confidently. Her reading was a bit more than impressive, but he couldn't gauge what species she hailed from. Giving her a respectful bow before leaning back up and folding his arms behind his back, he inspected her build a bit. It was clear she was a warrior by trade, and it was something he felt demanded a certain amount of respect. Seeing her resting weapon, he smiled and gently tapped Satya Yuga in its condensed form tucked into his rope belt. ''A weapon user, huh? It's always interesting to see someone who shares that sentiment.'' Extending his hand to the seemingly frozen woman, he opened it gently, offering a shake in greeting. ''My name is Zhai Liang. Liang is fine, though. It's a pleasure to meet you.'' Completely oblivious to what the actual reason of her freeze pertained to, he would turn to Pieter and offer his other hand in a shake, repeating the same line. He didn't have some fancy title yet, but soon enough he'd come up with something good. His blood began to boil excitedly, his heart lightly thumping away in his chest with the anxiety of who he would match up with. There were so many options! [Sorry for the shortness, much tired. ]

Many quickly arrived... And as quickly as they arrived, one of them seemed to charge Pieter! A pink little girl, with a humongous power to boast..! What were they called again? Majin? Whatever they were, exactly, they seemed to boast great might! The girl tried to shove the hunter into a wall, without restraint, leaving the hunter thinking, "Well... Shit!"[/
Bing, though, got in her way quickly. She was demanding on why he was here, whom he was. To that, Pieter replied with frustration, "A man who requested Bing to actually gather us here in the first place! I may be saiyan, but I am also partly human! Born here, on Earth, in fact! Now, can you calm yourself before unnecessary brawling happens? Serpent, damn it!"
The others seemed to come in, scolding the young girl before anything could happen. Reikiko arrived not too long after, and with a cut and to the point message, she told Bing that most of them were going to die. On top of it, Kaula had arrived and proceeded to provide a helluva sarcastic response. Bing thought otherwise, pointing out that they had the potential to be so much more than they were now. He even asked that everyone pick a sparring partner to prepare for the encounter, to which Pieter admonished, "Bing, with all do respect, throwing everyone into a giant brawl, without so much of a means to get to know each other isn't gonna help mu-"
The youngster, Etoru, walked up to Pieter and proceeded to ask the hunter to spar. He even shot his strength up beyond Zexama's, to which already was about double Pieter's! Pieter twitched a bit, taking in a deep breath as he muttered in an incoherent tone, "Fashrane nevahn..."
Pieter then released a sigh, kneeling to be eye level with the boy as he responded, "Soon enough, Etoru. First, though," the hunter paused, as he looked, to Kaula, "You just said something about knowing the general strength of the SSE... How, exactly? Are you part of their forces? This is a bit of a red flag, if I do say so myself..."

[2,684,864/3,188,276 = New PL due to grading mishap.]
Zexama stormed forwards only to see Bing replace the image in which she saw Pieter just earlier. Zexama then felt someone grab her skin that had been made to look like her turtle gi and didn’t like it at all, she never did like people she didn’t like or know touching her, especially when she was in a bad mood. Zexama turned around to face Cipher, powering up to her maximum potential and creating a pink surging aura that made her much more powerful than most of the people here, including the person that was ripping off her skin. Her skin now reattaching but when she was in her normal state Cipher was actually tearing Zexama’s skin apart, and she felt it all. She was mad at the Saiyan but she had forgotten that for now and was angrier at Cipher than anyone else on the lookout at right now. ”I DID NOT GIVE YOU PERMISSION TO RIP MY BACK OFF!” Zexama’s ripped off skin was exposing blood that was slowly pouring out of her back.
She quickly manipulated the flappy bit of skin on her back before looking back up at Pieter to hear him speak. ”Yeah Yeah whatever, he’s my maximum power with weights on, was going to save it for a surprise but someone just felt like RIPPING MY BACK OFF!” Zexama laughed before listening to what Bing had to say. ”OK guys I get the point, no being mean to people, whatever.” Zexama knew that she had to pick a sparring partner and the only people she thought of were Rei, Bing and Kaula. Bing was probably too busy and Rei was probably not interested in sparring due to her recent attitude. So, only one left to ask was Kaula. ”Ey Kaula! You wanna get outta here and start sparring?”
Zexama then heard Pieter accusing Kaula of being in the SSE, Zexama looked at Pieter and began shouting at him. ”HEY! MISTER! I just let you off the hook and then the first thing you do is accuse my sister-in-law of being in the SSE! She is in the SSE but she is also the fiancé of REI!” Zexama for some reason was really pissed off today but it didn’t matter, if Kaula agreed with the spar then she would fly off with Kaula. If she didn’t though Zexama would ask someone else to spar with.

As Bing greets the namekian back, an upset blue haired individual wearing nothing but undergarments comes out of one of the rooms in the Timeless Lookout , complaining about the sudden call. Naturally, the patrolman found that scene a little weird, as he expected a more formal meeting between the various heroes.
Other people also began to arrive as the interactions blossomed between each character gathered on top of the flying platform. There was this peculiar-looking swordswoman with lizard-like feature, who seemed to be familiar with the kid and with whom she proceeded to talk;
There was this other lady that came with along with a saiyan woman, who didn’t seem to be much positive about their chances, apparently referring to the group’s current behavior. She introduced herself as Reikiko and also master of the Crane school… whatever that was. But seemed keen on not letting Earth fall into the hands of these evil saiyans and that was enough for the patrolman. Specially with she mentioning her power was being restrained to not over five percent of her true power, what would make her a valuable ally if that wasn’t bragging.
A pale-skinned black-haired male also showed up, pulling the pink thing called Zexama away from the tribal, in order to stop the foolishness, although he actually ended up tearing part of her skin, which only served as a means to antagonize the angry majin, who powered up to reveal her humnongous power.
Another saiyan or saiyan hybrid (noticeable by his tail) also arrived, addressing Bing who begins to provide a briefing of their situation, explaining the reason why he called the warriors there. Nemo also felt a familiar ki approaching that belonged to an arcosian he met a while ago. Before interacting with anyone, the patrolman would remain serious and stationary, waiting for Kami-sama to give his word.
Apparently, the saiyans would be arriving in one week from there. Bing wanted the warriors to pick a sparring partner and go train already to get prepared for the unavoidable confrontation, since they were short on time.
It was then time to separate the warriors in pairs; Etoru seemed to have picked the tribal named Pieter and was quickly to begin to power up, revealing to have an even higher power level than before. This kid was really powerful…
As for the angry majin, she seemed to have picked the saiyan Kaula, who arrived with Reikiko.
Nemo didn’t really know anyone there other than Defrosch. He was inspecting the fighters, trying to decide whom he was going to approach to suggest sparring as a partner, but his introversion wasn’t helping much. He would remain there, as a living metaphor of the last selection in a ball game at school... with the difference that he was actually the tallest and bulkiest individual in the “playground”.

Jarvis reached out to the tiny little goddess that saved his life. A finger flicking her or attempting to flick her in the back of the head for her comments. "Well aren't you just a ray of sunshine on this day girl... Heh interesting form... I hardly recognize you." Jarvis rolling his eyes at Bing however and letting out a sigh. Cipher and Bing ever so the stuck up little people. Had to be proper or my word let peoples thoughts on you hinder your decisions. But Bing was kind enough to not stop his earlier parading and celebrations so he'd give in to this. Allowing it to come it to pass as he made his way to the throne. Jarvis returning shortly there after wearing only the green pants tied with a cloth belt and shiny tipped boots. Bing did not have the same sense of fashion as Jarvis and the colors clashed his his natural blue features. His tail peaking over the belt line still moving freely behind him. "How do you wear this..." Ribbing Bing on his style of clothes. But a smirk as if to suggest it was just in jest at least not wishing to insult Bing.
Jarvis letting out a groan not really caring what others said or who they chose. They didn't have time to worry to much about sentiment besides training and getting stronger even if Jarvis had ideas of his own in that regards. But those would come at a later time. Jarvis placed a hand on Bings shoulder. A looking of light curiosity and aggression burning behind blue eyes. "We need partners? Then find why not get something that will really be worth the effort. You Bing... I want you to fight me." Jarvis squeezing his shoulder but at the same time Offering a hand as if to embrace in a forearm handshake like brethren. This man held him at a time when death was almost certain an he even felt its cold grasp start to or at least felt like it was pulling him downward back to hell. Jarvis the super saiyan verse Bing and his might as a human! Proof that even a race most would shove the side had power within them. Bing a shining example of that! "The stronger the enemy the better right? What good would it do to train with one weaker... So you." AS if reaffirming his decision. The hand shake that gripped at forearms would have been tight and rough if Bing accepted. As if to say Jarvis would have acknowledged how important this training really was. A way for the warrior to speak with actions since he always had trouble with words. He cared little for the distractions of the others or the girl of the SSE at one time among them. All would be settled in the invasion anyway and loyalties likely shown. For now he just wished to face this warrior in combat. To grow stronger from it and see how he could match up the Kami and Guardian of earth! The friend he'd come to know in his times of pain an times of rest!

Post by Katagyu on Sept 7, 2015 14:05:06 GMT
[Thread Power Level: 7.751] Katagyu had just joined the Z-Fighter. Even still he didn’t like to be around people all that much and therefore he decided to just roam around the Korin Sacred Grounds all by himself, being, however, alerted to whenever the group needed his help. He was fully aware that he was possibly one of their weaker members, but if there were any way he could be of help, he would be there. Then, more than a week since he joined the group, while he was meditating among the treetops, he heard a telepathic message from the leader of the group, Bing.
He mentioned something about the threat of the saiyans and Katagyu was fully aware of what it was about. Due to his keen hearing sense he managed to hear Queen Zucceta’s threat to the whole universe, and found it pretty amusing that the saiyan was getting so cocky to the point of actually believing that she could take on the whole universe in a war. ”Power… It can really blind one’s reason. That’s why it never really attracted me… At the same time, the lack of power leaves us unable to make a difference… To help people… One of life’s many contradictions. For the greater good to be achieved one must gather power at half the rate as he gathers wisdom.” he thought to himself as he hovered above the tree line.
Katagyu slowly flew towards the Lookout far beyond the clouds, but he took his time. During his flight he focused on sensing the ki of the one’s that were gathering there while trying to listen to their conversation as soon as he approached it without much alarm. He wanted to know before hand of what was going on before appearing to them. Not that it would make any sort of impact, but the namekian wanted to know what sort of people he would be dealing with.
The moment he arrived was a little after people were already choosing their partner to fight. Katagyu landed on the lookout and folded his arms, staring at Bing. – I know I’m late. I will be willing to fight anyone who doesn’t have a partner yet. – he said in a serious tone. Word Count: 371

Post by Maeve Rakshasa on Sept 8, 2015 2:46:21 GMT
Maeve dropped her aggressive 'parenting' stance and was thankful to see both the pale android and silver haired man step in and corral the majin child that was attempting to start a fight with the tribal looking warrior. She wasn't sure where the tantrum from the little pink child came from but she was merely glad it was resolved. Though as she glanced she couldn't help but feel her golden gaze linger on the man with the silver hair and the green gi. Like when she looked upon the Tiger Master she felt herself captivated by his presence and could feel her heart flutter in her chest. The man exuded power and control yet had a gentleness burning in his mystifying silver eyes. She felt she could get lost in those shimmering silver pools as she stared... Wait. Crap! She was staring again! Maeve once again cut her gaze away to look at the rest of the people who had gathered. Though she couldn't help but wonder why she was feeling so jittery around these mortals. It hadn't yet dawned on her that she had spent most of her time in the mortal realm hanging around: women, children, and men she aimed to cut down thus far...
But holy crap where there a lot of good looking guys gathered... While she held special preference for both Liang and Bing she couldn't help but steal glances at a few others there. The ice haired saiyan was cute and had that 'bad boy' vibe going for him (He didn't show up wearing pants even!) Though the lingering 'scruffiness' he seemed to have about him was a bit of a repellent for Maeve's attentions. The pale skinned android (while certainly having attractive qualities to his face) was a bit too lean and lanky for her tastes. The late arriving saiyan was a bit too young and the spirit warrior while ruggedly handsome seemed to have something about him that made him seem unapproachable. She shook her head a moment afterward though, this wasn't exactly the time to be swept up in ogling the men gathered she had to keep her focus.
Her gaze shifted to the two namekians next, they seemed demon like but...Different somehow, and after the whole debacle with Mr.Green and that saiyan woman she was a bit more reluctant to jump to the conclusion that they may have been from the demon realm. This mortal realm was ripe with all different kinds of people from the saiyans that these people were rallying against to the twisted 'arcosians' like Lady Rime.
As she thought of the would be ruler, Defrosch made his appearance. He was like her! Were they coming back along with the saiyans?! One of his kind shot a hole through her chest when her back was turned! Who was to say this one would be any different?! Maeve was about to draw her blade against the grey skinned arcosian and accuse him of his potential crimes but stopped as she heard a child-like voice fill the air with chilling words.
"...You're all going to die."
She turned, facing both the child with the malignant black ki that she met in the woods with the impish Mr. Green and the saiyan swordswoman she crossed blades with in the coat of arms tournament. As the child, Reikiko, spoke of enduring training harder than ever before Maeve crossed her arms and canted her hip in an unimpressed display. While the use of her facilities was a tempting offer Maeve's pride forced her from considering it. She wouldn't be talked down to, it didn't matter how powerful she claimed to be. Maeve just frowned softly and flicked her tail, letting her talk.
Thankfully, the sliver haired man, stepped in and pacified the tense air with his kind tone. As he explained the situation Maeve would relax her stance and nod. So they were to spar to strengthen themselves was it? Well, Maeve could certainly handle that! She knew just who she wanted to spar with too! She desired to cross blades with one of the most capable swordswomen she had met! Their previous duel left her unsatisfied! She had to get another shot at her! So, drawing her blade, Maeve would point it towards Kaula only to hear the majin girl cry out her challenge. The dragoness noticably winced, missing her chance before sighing.
"Tch, seems I missed my chance..." She spat in a bitter grumble before glancing up to Kaula. "Oi. Kaula. Find me after all of this. We have unfinished business... You hear me?" She simply said before resting her fearsome Great Cleaver on her shoulder pad.
She supposed she could challenge Etoru, after all he seemed excited to face her earlier... Though he and the spirit warrior had already come to agreement on sparring with each other. She supposed the silver haired warrior would be a suitable challenge. After all, if he were leading this thing he must have been plenty strong! (That and she wouldn't mind getting closer to him!) Though the scruffy looking blue haired saiyan laid his claim. She sighed, frustration building until she heard a voice call out to her.
It was the young man who captured her attention first. The tiger warrior: Zhai Liang. She tensed up again, her cheeks burning lightly as he smiled warmly to her and offered his hand out in greeting. She practically froze once more but with all of her courage she would extend her free arm out and take hold of his giving it a firm shake. Despite her scaled, clawed, hands Liang would feel that her palms were pleasantly soft in comparison.
"I-I'm Maeve... Heriess of the Rakshasa Clan. It's a pleasure to meet you Liang." She said with a light stumble before breaking her hand away. She knew who she wanted to spar with now. She wanted to learn more about this warrior through combat! So inhaling lightly she would issue her challenge.
"L-Liang! FIGHT ME! P-Please..."
She let out a mixture of a proud roar and cute little 'meep.' as she formally challenged him to a duel. The demoness, despite looking more than a little flustered and sporting a bit of a scarlet blush stood firm with her challenge and met his gaze with a fiery determination.

Post by Cipher 24 on Sept 8, 2015 20:03:36 GMT
Cipher was a little surprised when Zexama's back seemed to just come off when Cipher moved to pick her up. Either she was doing this on purpose to mess with him, to majins were surprisingly easy to rip apart. Either way, no real harm was done as she healed up from it almost instantly, though she still seemed pissed by Cipher's actions. As long as it stopped any fighting from breaking out, she could be mad at Cipher all she wanted.
Any other activity was halted when Reikiko arrived, stating in no uncertain terms that they would all fall to the Saiyans in their current state. While Cipher did consider that a little bit of a harsh assessment, he agreed with her logic that they must train and prepare for the fighting ahead. After all, during the last crisis, while many assisted, the bulk of the work had been done by Reikiko herself. It wouldn't be reasonable to expect her to handle this Saiyan invasion by herself. Besides, Cipher was sick of sitting on the sidelines, unable to do anything.
Bing then spoke up about people pairing up to spar and train, and people weren't wasting time. Story was already challenging Peiter, and showing off a major increase in power. Cipher couldn't help but feel proud for the boy. Zexama's was challenging Kaula, and the dragoness was challenging Liang. Cipher looked around for any potential sparring partners, but really there were only three he could reasonably choose from.
As they all paired off, Cipher moved over towards Reikiko. "I humbly accept your offer to train Reikiko," he said, giving a small bow, "And I ask for the chance to spar with you this day." It was ultimately her call, but Cipher wanted to get the chance in before somebody else did. "You'll also be glad to hear that Vipoi's reconstruction has been completed. He's back to optimal condition, with no trace of the virus. He'll be ready to assist us during the Saiyan invasion. Though I'm afraid he could not be here today. He's been busy dealing with the fallout from his time as Realogner Red."

Post by Defrosch on Sept 9, 2015 11:16:21 GMT
As Defrosch approached the group, he saw a silver haired warrior give him a nod. Using his ki sensing ability, Defrosch determined that this must be Bing! The one that had sent the messages! "So you're Bing, right? Now I don't mean to offend you or show disrespect..." Almost entirely because that could get Defrosch severely injured. "... See, your dang psychic spam-mail threw me off my training- not once, but twice now. Consider this a formal complaint, if anything." Defrosch folded his arms "But there must've been a reason I got either of 'em so... Here I am. The names Defrosch."
The Arcosian glanced between everyone that had arrived before him. There was a small child of Saiyan descent, very strong for his age in fact! A rather large individual, who had markings belonging to a local tribe in the Western Frontier. Much like the child, he too had a Saiyan tail. There was a human there as well that spoke to Bing very casually, were they rivals perhaps? A strange mass of pinkness- a Majin- seemed to be having a tantrum, only to be calmed by he combined efforts of Bing and an individual that had no senseable level of ki. What. The blue haired individual had a sly air about him.. He too, was very strong. Defrosch could've sworn the draconian swordswoman had some level of hostility towards him... Must be the Arcosian reputation garbage again.
Goddamn desert politics
At least there was a familiar face; Nemo, a Namekian he sparred with a while ago.
A few minutes after Defrosch arrived, two more had made their way to the Timeless Lookout.
One was an unfamiliar Saiyan swordswoman, the other... Had a ki signature that Defrosch sensed before during a battle in West Capitol!
'You're all going to die' she says. What? Why? What the heck is even happening? What was all this about being Guardians of Earth? How the heck did Defrosch qualify? Damn, he was just here to register a complaint to Bing. Maybe also get a pizza later or something... "Hooold up, wwwhats going on here?" Defrosch raised an eyebrow in confusion. This was a bit too much for him, and it was about to get a whole lot worse.
This stranger introduced herself as Reikiko; master of the Crane school. Defrosch didn't find it unreal that she was suppressing her power, he had sensed one of her battles- but... To 5%?! She has to be joking. Right...? Both Reikiko and the friend she had arrived with both mentioned something about Saiyans and something invading. As this conversation went on, one last Saiyan decided to show up. Another new face. His power was just above that of Defrosch in his True Form. He looked a bit confused. Defrosch could relate to that.
Bing then made an announcement.
The Saiyan Solar Empire was going to invade Earth!
"Woooaaaah, WHAT!? A Saiyan INVASION? WHAT." You'd have to literally live under a rock to miss that information... Oh, wait. Right, Defrosch lives deep in the canyons of the Fortuneteller's Desert. "Hhhhggh... Okay. Okay. Okaleedokaly. This is fine. Totally fine." Its hard to tell where Defrosch stood on the whole thing exactly. He was somewhere between scared and absolutely livid.
Thank goodness Bing had suggested that everyone should pick training partners or else Defrosch would have very much defrosted.
The youngest among the warriors that had gathered; the small Saiyan child 'Etoru', jumped at this opportunity to approach another Saiyan who he adressed as 'Mr. Pieter' proclaiming he was stronger than he looked. The child quickly proved his point! One of the other humans known as 'Liang' expressed his concern for a child being part of a war. Defrosch would silently agree with Liang's statement, while Etoru was indeed capable, he was still young...
It would likely be more beneficial if he was to spar or with someone far stronger, though wouldn't everyone heavily consider taking that route? It certainly seemed that way. This left Defrosch having little to work with. While he could pick Nemo- as he is the only one Defrosch had met before- experiencing the fighting styles of others could do him some good.
The dragon-lady was certainly a 'no'. she looks like she wants to stab him or something. Stabbing is bad. The Majin was making a scene too. One wrong move around them could end in catastrophe as well...
"Hrmm.." Defrosch tapped his foot and thought to himself for a moment before walking over to the curious Saiyan Hybrid Articho. "Yo. If you can't think of anyone to spar with, I'll be up for it. I'm Defrosch... Arcosian, obviously." Defrosch looked at Articho's getup. He could've sworn he saw it somewhere before. "So... Yeah. Your call."

Post by Reikiko on Sept 11, 2015 22:08:50 GMT
She wasn't surprised by the general reaction of most of the group. Some might had considered her rude, others were too proud in their own skills to realize their flaws. As much as she wanted to sugar-coat things and give them a more gentle approach Reikiko realized that only the harsh treatment would make them realize that they needed to take action. Of course Bing didn't cease to amuse her, for the substitute Kami seemingly had obtained the peculiar idea to house a series of sparring battles on the timeless lookout. All in all not a bad idea, but if the lookout was destroyed because of his suggestion she wasn't going to be happy. Nevertheless, she doubted that after her introduction anyone was going to challenge her, so instead she had been prepared to walk away, her back turned toward the group when suddenly a familiar voice stopped her in her tracks. It was Cipher, who aside from showing his gratitude for her offer of granting training to those who desired it, was also asking her to spar with him. It was unexpected, and yet after a moment she turned back to face him, her lips curving up slightly into the faintest hints of a smile while she replied in a cheerful tone.
"If you're determined and brave enough to challenge me, then it would be a honor to respond to your courage by accepting your challenge. Let us head a bit further away from the group... shall we?"
She doubted Cipher would have any objections, so the Homunculus had started moving toward one of the more distant parts of the platform. As far as she recalled she didn't really train with Cipher before. Certainly, she knew from the things Hikari and Vipoi had told her that the android was a capable warrior in his own right, but it was always a bit different to hear something than to experience it.
"As harsh as my words earlier might had been, they were unfortunately the truth. Although they are strong by Earthling standards, the Saiyajin are a civilization that prospers on conflict, simply said they were born as warriors. That's why I insisted they should be training instead of quarreling among themselves. If not for their own sake, then for their loved ones and the planet they have to defend."
One issue she had with challenging Cipher was the fact that even her soul sense ability didn't pick up a rough estimate of the android's power level, so in the end she would need to manually adjust the amount of power she allowed to be released from her body, lest she'd make it too easy or too difficult on Cipher.
"I shall initiate our spar by using my full capacities. Although my Ascended Form might be a bit too much for you to handle, I will adjust my speed and strength to match your own once I get a grasp of it, so don't hold back."
After her explanation Reikiko took a deep breath, her gaze softening for a moment before she allowed the mental restrains on her energy to be released one by one. It were like the chains that tied a beast to the ground, for with each chain that was broken her energy started to surge, the powerful gust of wind that accompanied the surge of energy likely enough to be felt across the entire lookout. The silver aura had started to burn freely around her, sparks of electricity surrounding the Homunculus and three times it seemed this process repeated itself, before her aura wrapped around her into a visible cocoon of energy that removed her from the visage of everyone, and after a brief tense moment where her energy seemed to fade... the cocoon burst open to reveal the matured form of the woman.
"Sorry for the delay, if I was to instantly activate my Ascended Form it would be likely that the energy that was expelled would influence some of the 'less experienced' individuals training on the lookout. Either way... Let us begin shall we?"
While her gaze softened for a moment, those eyes soon returned their gaze upon Cipher like a predator, and with a swift dart she rushed forwards, her body disappearing mid-charge. It was a simple rapid movement, and while some of the participants would have been able to likely see her rapidly changing trajectory mid-sprint, her legs lowering for a moment before pushing her body sideways, quite literally bouncing upwards before descending back behind Cipher to create a triangle-shaped pattern, and while her elbow was raised upwards, clearly intending to smack into the back of the android, it would have looked like she had simply disappeared from her spot and reappeared in an instant behind Cipher to those that were too slow to keep up with her speed.
"Never underestimate a Saiyajin. It isn't just their strength that makes them dangerous, it's their pride and desire to win at all costs that make them unpredictable when driven into a corner."
Her tone was calm and carried a certain maturity in it, almost like a wise elder teacher instructing their student about something.
"The same could be said about us. Both of us have a family to take care of, and as a result we are determined to protect them at all costs. I failed to protect one of them, if one dares to threaten the other... I would unleash my full wrath upon them. I'm not going to experience this feeling of helplessness another time, that nightmare of losing someone dear to me. That's why I will help end the threat that the Saiyajin empire represents."
Whether Cipher succeeded in dodging her attack or not, Reikiko made a light hop backwards, seemingly awaiting to see the android's potential retaliation. It was clear she wasn't trying to seriously harm him, in the end despite the overwhelming power in her presence, and the speed at which she moved at, the strength of the elbow strike might had felt as if it was someone closer to Cipher's own level that had elbowed him.
---- 2/3 KP Reikiko uses a Rapid Movement to appear behind Cipher and strike him in the back. (Will be moving at 2.5m speed, but has lowered her damage output to be roughly equal to Cipher's own to prevent knocking him across the platform.
Dunno if we are staying in the same thread or not~

(Spiking this back to life. Let's take into account how we actually grouped up, eh?)
Was this really happening? Pieter found everyone immediately grouping up, having their own solo-minded expectations, infuriating..! The hunter's head throbbed a bit, as everyone went to each other and asking to spar without so much as a plan to build up. He let loose the anger outward, his voice hopefully loud enough to get everyone's attention.
"Alright, what the heck is wrong with you all?! Do any of you have a plan of action for this battle we're going in? Simply trying to train with each other isn't as simple as you'd think! For example, you two," Pieter pointed at Kaula and Reikiko, making his way in front, knowing he was going right in range for Zexama to punch him or whatever, "You just immediately came up here and, after stating we were going to die, just decide that you're gonna try to train with us without as much as any sort of information on whom we're going to hunt? A hunt, just like a battle, involves us figuring out what we have available to fight with. Right now, before any training goes down, we need to get on the same level with each other, mentally. Is that agreeable?"[/font]
(This felt more appropriate to post, rather than going about to spar.)

(Sorry guys, participated went pbt, didn't tell me anyone was posting.)
Kaula stood there for a few moments, a hand coming up to run her fingers through her glorious and well kept mane. However, she did frown at the talk of training. Train? Now? At a time like this? It was a little late for that. And, as much as she preferred to fight people, she shook her head. The announcement was a while ago, and they were nearing that so called deadline. She glanced at Zexama for a second before huffing, "Not now.." she muttered as she glanced at Pieter.. Who had.. Called her out.
"Hey. You're right not to trust me. I was in the empire, after all. I was a commander of the empire, too! In charge of the whoooole Saiyan planet while queen Zuccy herself was gone." the saiyaness said as she stuck her hands on her hips, "It's also nice to point out that I work with Reikiko, here. And if we were the enemy, we would have killed you all. Probably long before coming here." she continued with a scoff.
"But, as for the strength.." she muttered out as she glanced from Bing to each person there. "Listen up. Because I'm only going to say this once. I was one of five super saiyans in the army. There's the queen. There's that jerk Natto. There's Mayze. And then there was the former queen, now commander Vennel." Kaula stated as she stuck her hand up. "I have seen each one as a super saiyan. And I had been staying there for a while. I remember that there's not a whole lot of other strong people there. Still.. The first three you have to look out for. As for Vennel..? Eh. She went missing shortly after she was dethroned. I think Zucceta had her killed or something. Maybe sent to some backwater planet. Who knows."
Kaula stuck her hands behind her back, "Other then that, I would assume that they'd probably go all out.. Unlike against Arcose So expect every major city to be attacked. And, if Zucc knows about it, even this lookout here."
Still, after that, Pieter had some doubts. "Eh. I kind of agree with you. But it's going to be hard. I assume you all want to save the Earth's population as much as possible, so that really limits options.. As for who else is there, just a few nobodies. Can't be all too sure who else they'd send on top of the big three."

Articho growled under his breath, his tail bristling and flicking angrily. A week was all they were given to prepare for another threat. This had certainly been a hectic month. First, it was Vi-Poi for two weeks, now the Saiyans. The party never seemed to end on Earth. It got him thinking, at the very least. If the Saiyans were coming, then his father might be with them. Then he could track him down and punch his stupid face in before dragging him back home and handing his father over to his mother. After that, Articho figured his father wouldn't be leaving again anytime soon.
Articho looked over at the Arcosian that was approaching him. An image of Gleciar, smiling and happy, flashed through his mind. The hybrid's heart sank at the thought of his dead friend. Kaula joined Gleciar in his mind, quickly replacing the sadness with anger. He would take her down. Not now, but eventually and with no mercy. He refocused on the Arcosisn, Defrsch. "Sure, I'll take you on, he said. "Should be fun."

Super Saiyans..? That was a kick to a childhood memory, if that weren't one already! He had recalled his father gathering Waputhi, Bai, and himself around the fire, around the time Pieter had finally sprouted his tail. He told them that they were mighty warriors, that at one point were a rare group to even find, let alone hear rumors of in the first place many hundreds of years ago! But, they were showing more recently... Either it had been because the warriors' bloodlines were so spread out or it was simply a power that any saiyan could achieve, regardless of how 'diluted' it could be. The warriors had enough power to annihilate planets with a flick of their hands, his father told them. This was apparently now among the enemy ranks, as well as officially their own... Or some would believe. Pieter, though, felt as though this wasn't particularly the best interest for everyone to simply spar with each other and waste energy before they arrived. Kaula then reminded Pieter that they had taken down Arcose, having him recall the individuals he met and, last year at the tournament, fought in his Oozaru form... The saiyan power he had, and quite possibly the other saiyans coming in this invasion had was no doubt massive, but how much of a difference was there? She also asked if they were aiming to save as many as possible. "Indeed so, ma'am... But," Pieter responded, raising a finger to tell the others that he was not finished, "If the people get in the way, there is no guarantee of safety when the battle begins. The hunting grounds are the very planet itself, and if the people of this planet aren't evacuated from their homes to other places off planet... They will die. And I do not intend to waste energy trying to save others during greatest hunt of hunts. I recall meeting this Queen at one point, with a man I believe named Zasho. The woman, at the time, was weaker than I, but not so much... If you are saying that she is coming, and she is bringing an army of strong warriors, then we will need to act accordingly. I've an idea, but before I even express it... I'd rather hear the input of everyone here before they go off to train recklessly, with no abandon!"Pieter shouted this demand, looking at the people whom had grouped up here as per his request through Bing! (Rekindling this again. Come everyone! Bing Gan, Kaula, Reikiko, Articho Reville, Defrosch, Cipher 24, Maeve Rakshasa, Katagyu, @jarvis, Zexama, Liang, Etoru!)

It seemed everyone was already in the swing of things. Warriors began to mingle, and some had already begun sparring! Things seemed to be going well, save for a single complainer. Pieter was very against the idea of everyone simply punching each other and figuring out the plan afterwards, which worried Bing. He hadn't realized how downright silly an idea like this truly was! They needed to plan, not spar! Bing face-palmed, realizing the error in his thought process. "Hold up everyone! Reikiko, Cipher, hold off for a moment!"The Guardian quickly jogged over to Pieter, sidling up close to him and whispering into the hunters ear. "Sorry brother, I figured it might cool the tension a bit if everyone got to know each other through a bit of fighting, y'know?" After this, he moved back to the doorway. Soon after, Jarvis put his hand on Bing's shoulder, asking for a quick spar. Bing simply shook his head in response. "Normally I'd say sure, but I think now it's better to simply plan our strategy out first. We can fit in a spar later."Bing turned, listening to Kaula's explanation of the Saiyan battle-plan. It seemed the most likely strategy was a multi-pronged strike force, attacking each major city in unison. The grey-haired warrior pondered for a moment on a proper counter-stratagem. "We're going to have to split our forces into four groups, then. If Zuccetta really does attack all four cities, we'll need strong warriors gathered at all of them! Do you have any assumptions on where Zuccetta herself might touch down?" He asked Kaula inquisitively.
Remember to stick to Post Order! If you lost exactly what it was, just look at previous pages! Etoru is up next, followed by Liang! try to be courteous and tag the next person in the order when you post, seeing as it's been a while and there's a good chance this thread has fallen off of their "Participated" notifications.
