"I think we've bought them more then enough time lil brother!" Val barked, catching a flailing limb and breaking it off at the source. Sending another alien howl through the air before silencing it. No point in trying to prevent a headache now, he thought darkly, there was too much squealing and shrieking coming from the angry green foot troopers. Even as pulses of energy wiped the last ones into nothing so much as purple smears and broken emerald. The old soldier's scouter clicked a warning, hissing in it's age but still functioning. Landing on the broken street with a huff, releasing his power. Clothing settling before he made a motion with his finger, swinging it in a 'gather up' circle. "Done all I can kid. The Saiyans will be 'ere pretty soon. And I'll last only a good ten seconds. You...not much longer. Saw the Queen once. Ten times your power level. And your double mine; so let's get moving."
His power level was raising rapidly, even for a Saiyan, and nobody doubted his dedication to the art of working out and raising his bar with the appearance of his race on the worlds soil. From the first day they landed to nearly five years later; any time not spent helping the folk out Val could be found either behind the Hall or in the forests and mountains working his body and skills for the day he would need to defend them. And that time was now; even if he had a long way to go to match the Saiyans, or even the Z Fighters. He had no interest in formally joining the band; as great an idea as it were he just was not strong enough yet. As an added point, Lucia needed him too much for him to go running off at every sign of trouble. But Earth would need all her defenders and warriors to survive the coming trials and times.
But even he knew the coming tide would be too much for him and his new friend. Eyes coursed over the ruins, checking for threats and hazards with the lazy skill of a motion done countless times. He swore under his breath, loud enough for Raisu to hear. "The damned girl found a hurt Saibaman. Definitely time for us to get going. Dashing off, before making his quick skid to land by Vivi and her new alien friend. "Damn it girl, ain't got time for this." He knew she'd work some argument up for keep the alien. So instead of bothering to growl and complain, both she and her oddly met companion were scooped up into broad arms.
Just in the nick of time too. A few lower class Saiyan grunts had arrived. Examining the damage with cold eyes. Val felt a rush of cold sweat on the back of his neck. Doing his best to balance the two little life forms in his arms. "We head for Lucia! Too far off the beaten path for them to find us. And none of us here have enough power to register. Follow up Raisu!"
THe energy flared, gaining him the Saiyans attention for a moment before he took off into the sky. Leaving the energy wake; and hoping they didn't bother to come after him.
//Petition to end this threeway rp; and start a new one of us three in Lucia?

Arlic called for an end to battle. Had they bought them enough time? Hopefully. It certainly had seemed like an eternity down in the streets, the battle raging. Either way, he had a point. The Saiyan Empire far outstripped him in power. There were many fighters among them that he could not even hold a candle too, let alone stand his ground. Sometimes a tactical retreat was better than a hopeless last stand, even for a Saiyan. But there was the small, animalistic part of him that nigh demanded he stay and fight the Saiyans tooth and nail. That would be a death worthy of him. Yes, why wouldn't he do that?
Raisu was scared to die. It hit him like a truck, the realization sending his mind reeling. The human part of him spoke sense and tried to smother the flames of battle rising in his blood. No, he thought, there was no reason to die here. Not while he could still do some good elsewhere. So, Raisu nodded. He's retreat for now, even if it meant abandoning his home to the flames of war. Damn, came the thought. Why here? At least his mother had escaped, but everything they had known was rubble and ash. He'd come back some day. Poke among the ghosts of the past, and see what was left.
But for now, he had elsewhere to be. And just in time too. Arlic had flown off to recover the pretty girl, and what seemed to be one of the Saibamen. But why? There were good Saibamen, but... No, not the time to question it. He just had to get out. He could feel ki signatures approaching, and these were more than Saibamen. Focusing, Raisu began to flick off switches in his mind, working to suppress his power level. And then he turned tail, quite literally and ran. While Arlic could fly, Raisu was bound to the Earth. But at least he was fast and hardy, more than the average person. He'd make it outside the city at least, but after thatm finding a ride would be a little tricky.
But at least Raisu knew where he was headed: Lucia. It'd be a nice trip. He always did enjoy the scenery. There was beauty in this world, even among the chaos.
(Agreed, that works for me. I'll personally take PL for this thread.)

Vivi winced, recoiling slightly into the side of the wall where she rested against. From the point of view where she sat she had seen the whole display of the two fighters across the field from her where they battled against more of the strange green men but it had been Apple man which caused her to shudder so. His fighting was uncanny, not just the way he fought but at the speeds in which he did, his limbs were like streaks of lighting, flashing so quickly that her eyes could only see but a fraction of what had happened. One moment she saw the diving attempt of the green men to lash out at Apple man only for the poor creatures arm to torn asunder from the rest of its body in a sputtering splash of blood from now detached limb which hung limp in the gruff man's hand. Hand filled with the arm of another the man still had enough speed and strength to send another one of the green men flying off into the distance with a whaling scream, it was cut off before he hit the ground and Vivi knew that the alien was dead in mid flight.
It was a lot to take in all at once, when arriving she had wished for nothing more than to watch the combat with ever increasing interest, now she wasn't so sure with her eyes slowly beginning to turn from the scene through the gap in the buildings wall. War had been every thing Old Salty had told her and more, there was some parts that were romanticized, not all of it though she was fully being to understand, it was a part of life she assumed at least and about time she saw it, up close, with her own eyes and not through a picture box. So often what was displayed on the televisions was censored, blotting out the parts that were deemed intensive to viewers so a full picture had never really taken shape in Vivi's mind... she was glad she made the choice to come back... yet the images would haunt her for some time after.
Vivi neither cheered or booed for either side, for while she liked the gruff and tough man she hardly knew him other than their short encounter before he sent her off, she had known Yoda for nearly the same amount of time and liked him just as well, the only difference was that Apple man was still breathing. Her soft eyes turned towards the battered and bleeding alien, no longer did his chest rise and fall with even rhythms, the damage he had sustained to his body had been far to much on him, only minutes had passed since he had. It was a solemn sight, to see someone die right next to her, it never got any easier she thought. In the end of his life Vivi hoped that she had given the strange creature some comfort from what little there was to have in a battle torn landscape, a simple touch was all she could offer and she gave it willingly having little idea of who the creature was or even what his life had been like. Being the simple minded, happy person that Vivi was she liked to assume there was some good in everyone even if it was only the smallest nugget of it which existed through a blackened heart; some was enough. Her thoughts traced the idea's of what the aliens life must have been like, whether he was good or bad but... she didn't know, all she knew of him was what he looked like, and how he acted in the last few pain filled minutes; pain had a way of changing people however, the aliens first reaction was to lash out at her but Vivi liked to think it was because the creature was afraid and not trying to hurt her.
With only thoughts to keep her company she gave the alien's hand a light squeeze, she knew he was gone but some how it made her feel better as if a small part of him could feel her touch from where ever people went when they passed on. Chest rising out heavily with a sigh Vivi watched through the cracked wall once more to take notice that the fighting outside had ceased for the moment, eyes scanning what little view she had Vivi couldn't see any more of the green men, perhaps they had all been killed like Yoda or they left to avoid the same fate as the rest of their comrades. She shrugged gently at the thought, it would have been a short war had that been the case but Vivi felt as though she had seen enough for one day to last her quite some time.
Rising to her feet Vivi went to move forward but she was dragged back with a jerk from her hand. She squealed softly thinking Yoda was still alive and beckoning her not to leave but turning around with a shimmer of hope she notice that it was her hand that still clasped onto the little alien's. Vivi hadn't even noticed her grip on his thinking she had left go seconds before as to let her stand once more, some where in the back of her mind had held her hand on a little longer, perhaps to remember the little green man's face better. Stepping forward she studied Yoda's face in great detail, then slowly placing him against the wall once more she released her hand from his letting it droop down onto his lap.
"Good night Yoda."
She spoke softly but as she went to turn around she was greeted with the sudden appearance of the Apple man.
Eyes growing wide Vivi froze with shock once more as a sense of deja vu went through her head feeling as though this exact thing had happened before not that long ago but her memories couldn't exactly pull at the loose strings to piece the picture together. Much faster to recover this time around Vivi took in a large inhale of breath to greet the man but before she could get a word in edge wise he spoke first, his voice just as gruff as ever but with a thin layer of annoyance at her.
"I guess he's speaking first."
Vivi thought smugly.
He had all rights to be annoyed with Vivi, after all he had sent her away to avoid these dangers and here she was once more watching the battle from a broken down building, she knew this but had Apple man knew her better he would have known telling her to stay away would only drive her more towards it. Finishing quickly Vivi nodded gently towards him and spoke quickly.
"Good to see you as well! This is my friend... or was-"
Before she could finish Apple man's hand shot out and picked her up with a mere flex of his massive arms letting a high pitched squeak break through her lips before she took control of herself once more.
"So far I like where this is going."
She grinned sheepishly though it was blocked from the man's eyes with the way he was holding her but the smile that formed on her lips was quick to fade as he also picked up Yoda.
"No, you can-"
Once more she was unable to finish her sentence as in a burst of energy they were aloft, the ground growing ever further away from them. Vivi froze, she froze like she had never had before, her mouth growing dry and her hands digging into the man's skin, her nails prodding deeply against his skin as she locked onto him like a magnet. Vivi had never been one for heights and now the ground looked to be miles below them causing her heart to beat all the faster in her chest. She went to speak but all that Vivi managed to let out was a series of low whimpers and whines which translated to "LET, ME, DOWN!" at least to herself.
With no means to move or resist where it was she was being taken Vivi clung onto Apple man for dear life, for if either of them lost grip of the other she would fall to her death in seconds. Having no real control of the situation or the inability to even move her eyes Vivi hadn't taken notice of where it was Pretty boy had gone off to or even the Saiyan troops that had begun to descend from the sky above.
