[Original Thread]Polar listened to the Saiyan go on. He seemed quite panicked and angry, like a wounded animal. It made Polar even angrier. How dare he? He claimed he was willing to back down. He claimed the Earthlings were agitating the fight. That Polar was agitating the fight. It was listening to a child. And then he kept going on, perhaps sucking up to Polar to escape his fate. It was pathetic, to say the least. "Why am I not surprised?" Polar scoffed, "Backed into a corner, and all you can do is cry victim." The Arcosian levitated forward, and his eye still charging. "What did you think would happen? Did you expect these Earthlings to take your incursion lying down?"
He began to float closer. "No, you wanted them to fight. You wanted to exert your dominance, like a simple monkey. Like you did on Arcose."
Closer. "But once you find someone capable of taking you on, you cower."
Closer. "Well, if you want to fight, you will have one."But before Polar could fire his beam, he heard roaring behind him. Turning, he saw that Mu-Kal had tossed a massive Great Ape toward him. With no choice, Polar fired his charged Eye Laser at the ape, which caused a massive explosion. The force of it shattered the windows of nearby buildings, and created a massive smoke cloud. ---- 2/3 KP *Polar fires a 33% charged Eye Laser on an Oozaru corpse.*

Riku stared at the Acrosian tagged as Polar, his response reaching Riku's very heart and making Riku's pride burst. He hated those words... Being called a coward, it was like a knife in the back. Riku stood unmoving as the blue lizard approached him, floating closer as he spoke, only to be distracted by a Oozaru flying right at him. Riku gritted his teeth and folded his arms, his mind contemplating and his eyes fixated on Polar. His scouter analyzed his power and Riku sighed, the difference in power was high, but Riku would prove he was no coward.
"I'm no coward, Acrosian. I am simply saying the truth, I never intended on destroying Earth, hell, I questioned if I should invade or not. I'm only here for my team, and if we had realized how bad things would get we would have left or not come at all."
Riku unfolded his arms and cracked his knuckles, waiting for Polar to get ready. Riku was beneath him in power, but it didn't mean Riku couldn't find a way to deal damage to the Acrosian. Sighing he got in his wide stance and waited for the blue Acrosian, his heart pounding. "Shit is going to get serious now... I can't hold back... I can't fail my team. I'm really hoping you understand Polar, it's inconvenient how our race has a burning hate for each other, but it's not all of us that are like that..."

Mu-Kal again tried to resist the Oozaru's control, fighting in anyway he could against the rage that clouded his mind, he saw a cloud of grey smoke and the smell of death fill his lungs, he broke through the clouds up wards and took a wide swing at Polar, seeing another saiyan advancing towards Polar, His simple thoughts led him to the conclusion of... friend, he needed to help friend beat bad blue guy. The rage consumed him and channeled it into his punch. Trying to knock polar into the ground.

Polar kept his back turned to Riku, still glancing in the direction of where Mu-Kal had been. He couldn't quite see through the thick cloud of smoke that had resulted from his attack. Of course, he didn't forget that Riku was still there, but he was only half-listening to what he was actually saying.
Damnit...it was foolish of me to turn my back on the ape. Now I have two enemies to fight.
Even though he thought he was prepared for the Oozaru, Polar didn't expect such a sudden attack as Mu-Kal burst through the cloud and his knuckles smacked against his entire body and caused him to slam into the ground below. Groaning, the bruised Arcosian pulled himself up off the ground. Judging by the distance now between them, he seemed to have taken quite the fall. Nevertheless, he took advantage of the interval for a ranged attack, extending his fire. He aimed and fired for the Oozaru who, at the moment, he deemed to be the most severe threat.

Riku glanced behind the Acrosian, taking notice of a Oozaru that launched himself towards him. Riku arched an eyebrow when his scouter read a power level of seventy thousand. Last time he checked, the normal soldiers that could become Oozarus were not of such a high level, and this one wasn't within the army if he recalled well. Riku concluded, either this particular Oozaru was a rampaging Earth saiyan or he was a soldier they had forgotten. However, it made more sense for him to be of Earth, considering he was never acknowledged before leaving Vegeta.
Glancing at Polar, the Acrosian turned his back towards Riku, occupying himself with the incoming ape. Riku floated backwards as the Oozaru came closer, attempting to get out of its reach, but it attacked Polar instead. Surprised, Riku seemed to see this Oozaru as a temporary comrade until it lost its Great Ape form. He had no intention of double teaming the Acrosian he approached slowly and stared as Polar went crashing into the ground, moments later pulling himself back up and firing a ray of ki at the Oozaru.
Instinctively, Riku turned towards the Oozaru and projected his voice loud enough for him to hear. "Dodge it! Descend from its path!" Watching the beam he didn't expect the beam to truly hurt the Oozaru. Riku turned towards Polar and folded his arms, he had no intent of going after the Acrosian, but he knew it was his only hope of defeating Polar without having the major power difference. For now he would wait for his opening to strike Polar and allow him to deal with the Oozaru.

Polar gave a glance to Riku, a magenta beam still firing from the former's finger. The Saiyan had flown near the Oozaru and cried out for him to dodge. Naturally, the Arcosian suspected that Riku was fraternizing with the ape, and it certainly strengthened his belief that the Oozaru was on the side of the Saiyan Empire.
The Oozaru was feral, and initially Polar didn't think much of it. But this made him wonder. Could Riku be some handler of sorts? Was he the beast's master? It made sense, given the beast had not targeted the Saiyan. If that was the case, Polar's strategy had to change: kill the head, kill the body.
Hopefully, with the Oozaru occupied with Polar's attack, he wouldn't intefer. The Arcosian blasted into the air, and rushed the Saiyan. At this speed, his body was a blur, and it took him only seconds to reach his target. He extended his foot and attempted to kick Riku to the concrete, away from the raging beast.

((Which form are you in polar?))
Mu-Kal was still trying to break free of his monkey prison, after smacking the acrosian into the dirt he found it pointing up at him, the monkey side of Mu-Kal thought "He point to say winner!?" Mu-Kal however thought "INCOMING!!!" he assumed the monkey had heard him somehow and prepared to dodge when the saiyan also to do so, he moved as quickly as he could for a giant monkey but wasn't able to fully dodge the blast, it winged his left leg at the thigh, building excruciating pain in it swelled throughout Mu-Kal's Giant body. "RAAAAAAAGGHHHH!" He cried out in pain to little or no effect, he saw the blue guy trying to hit the saiyan and desperately launched [Jump Flight] himself to intercept the kick with an outstretched hand.

This was glorious, his team was greatly outnumbered and now he was facing off against a blue lizard with armor. Riku looked at the blast, barely following along as it went in to strike the Oozaru who was currently his comrade. Riku gritted his teeth as he saw the Oozaru try to dodge, only to still be hit with the beam but only his arm. The roar was intense and it shook the saiyan in black.
His attention drifted back towards Polar who was looking at him strangely, as if planning something. Riku arched an eyebrow and he only saw a minor glimpse of the Acrosian before their faces were only inches away and a kick came in between them. Riku sucked his teeth, "This is fucking great," he thought. Riku threw his arms up, desperately crossing them in front of him to reduce the kick's impact.
He'd expected to have a bit more time before Polar had decided to attack. Just as the kick came within millimeters of distance, through his peripherals he saw the Oozaru's hand outstretching towards them. Riku then felt the kick on his arms and it sent him backwards, stopping himself before crashing into a building. Riku shook his arms, the kick leaving slight bruises. "Nice kick there, mate. Let me show you what I can do."
Riku rushed towards the Acrosian, red aura surrounding him. He intended on throwing a fake punch at the blue man, then striking him with a leg sweep.

A quaking deafening roar was screeched by the Oozaru, causing Polar to squint briefly. He opened his eyes to the sight of the approaching Saiyan who threw a left hook at him, which didn't connect. Polar jerked his head to the left, but it seemed like Riku had no attention of hitting him at all. Suddenly, Polar fell an unexpected his to his shin, which caused the unsuspecting Arcosian to start spinning in midair like a pinwheel.
Stopping upside down, facing the Saiyan's boots, the Arcosian prepared for a retaliatory punch, but once again heard the familiar growling and a loud swoosh. Spinning around, Polar saw the ape's hand reaching out for him.
"I'm starting to notice a pattern," he noted joylessly, and extended both hands with each forefinger pointed at the Oozaru. Simultaneously, he fired not one, but two Death Beams, each with their power equally halved from a normal Death Beam, but they weren't aimed for the ape's hands, feet, or even torso. No, Polar wanted to blind the creature. If he couldn't see, he wouldn't be able to fight. Not effectively.

Riku smirked as Polar was hit by the saiyan's leg sweep, spinning in mid air and stopping upside down. Riku's eyes darted towards the Oozaru's hand as it closed in on Polar. Riku backed away, not wanting to be caught in the hand.
As Riku backed away the Acrosian held his hand out and shot two beams at the Oozaru, aiming straight for the eyes. Riku watched helplessly as he couldn't reach his temporary comrade in time to stop the attack from hitting him."Dammit! Stay down, Oozaru! I'll be facing off against this guy now..." Riku paced towards Polar and gritted his teeth, attempting to formulate some type of strategy to deal damage to the Acrosian. Just as he brainstormed he heard Aspa's voice saying he loved Tomo and that she was the final one of house bloodburn. Riku's eyes widened and his eyes began to water, Aspa was gone. Riku's courage began to fade, his comrade now dead. He had no will to continue in this war, it was suicide plain and simple.
He looked at Polar with darkness and sadness in his eyes, his soul empty now. Him and Aspa didn't get along that well, but Aspa was like a master to him, a teacher, and now he was gone. "Polar... Fuck this war. Fuck this idiotic invasion. My comrade has just died due to the deceptive ways of our queen! Don't you see the true fault is of the Queen!? If you still feel like killing me, come, end my life if you will. I do not wish to go on if it means more deaths will come. I do not wish to witness more bloodshed of my team. If you let me go, I oromise, you will never see me invading Earth again."
Riku let his arms open slightly, embracing Polar if he were to strike him down now. He would hope the Acrosian would allow him to keep his life and leave with his team.

Polar turned to face Riku, who was now shouting louder than ever, though his voice was cracking. His face was red and tears were streaming down his face. The Queen, Riku shouted. It was the fault of the Queen. But how could he believe the Saiyan? What if was a trick? Could he really trust a Saiyan after all the strife they had caused? The destruction of Arcose? The fall of Taiga's army? The death of his dearest friend, Hakuri?!
He clenched his fist, and closed his eyes shut whilst gritting his teeth. Why was the decision so difficult when the right choice was plainly in front of him? Opening his eyes, Polar lost his composure and charging toward Riku in a blur. Clenching his fists together, he brought them overhead and tried to bring them down onto the Saiyan's head to slam him to the concrete below.

Riku stared at Polar, his arms still outstretched and ready for whatever Polar decided to hit him with. He only saw frustration and anger on the Acrosian's face. Riku could tell something was bothering Polar, yet he had no clue what. As he continued to stare at the blue lizard he clenched his fists, and Polar launched himself at Riku, slamming his fists onto Riku. Riku went straight down, crashing into the ground and releasing a cloud of dirt from impact.
Riku picked himself up and stared upward, then floating back up and huffing, the attack was immensely strong and took the wind out of the black armored saiyan. He sighed and outstretched his arms again, still waiting for Polar to unleash his power."Come, Polar, unleash your hate unto me. I see that you are troubled by something, and if you must unleash your pain, bring it forth in your attack. Do as you will, I will not retaliate, I've had enough of this invasion and wish to cause no more harm to this planet... Who would believe I was raised here, and look at me now, invading it under a deceiving Queen... I only wish my family were alive to see what I have become..."

Polar hovered down to the ground and walked toward the downed Riku, who sat up and demanded that the Arcosian finished him. Although he looked quite agitated, he seemed remorseless and cold, beginning to raise his finger for the final blow. But on the inside, he was conflicted and he didn't know why.
Strangely, enough, the Saiyan wasn't fighting, just as he didn't when they first started. Even when he was occupied with the Oozaru, Riku didn't take advantage of it. And the same line kept coming up. He kept stating about his disapproval of the Saiyan incursion. Polar didn't know whether or not to believe him.
Why didn't he take the shot? And why can't I?
Polar found himself frozen in place, and then he spoke of his family, which really made Polar think. It reminded him of that little girl he saw roaming the streets, who Polar suspected to be an orphan. The one he had saved. She and Riku had reminded him so much of a female Saiyan he had met so many years ago; one who his late father, Chilleon had ordered dead. Then, he remembered Cabba, the Saiyan invader Polar had killed so many years ago.
Funny, that this moment was almost a mirror of that moment. Yet it was also so much different.
Could it really be different this time? Do I really have the choice?
Polar lowered his finger. He couldn't bring himself to do it. Not after what he'd remembered. He turned away, and crossed his arm as he gazed into the direction of the Oozaru.
"Leave," commanded the Arcosian, "Tell the other monkeys what you saw. Tell them what will happen if they come back."
Polar would only tell the man once. It took a great deal of willpower not to kill the Saiyan then and there. He doubt he had the patience for a second mercy, nor did he desire to have it. He'd already been charitable enough today. There was a battle to be won.

Polar descended, his finger ready to blast Riku away to Otherworld and Riku only stood and readied himself. He had no intent on blocking or dodging, this would be his grave. However, Polar hesitated, his eyes showing greater frustration, as if remembering something. After a few moments the blue Acrosian dropped his hand, cancelling the blast and turning his gaze towards the Oozaru. His words were clear, he was giving Riku his life, mercy at the hands of Polar.
Riku only looked at the Acrosian, astonished he actually spared his life. The black armored saiyan nodded, understanding Polar's words clearly. Riku lifted off into the sky and looked towards the Star Javelin, wondering what had been going on lately. He turned back towards Polar once more and he smirked slightly."Thank you, Polar. I promise,I will return one day, as someone different, and we will fight once more. Then we will see who truly overpowers who. Until that day, Polar. Good luck."Riku lifted off into the sky and rushed towards the Star Javelin, wanting to check on whoever it was that had been injured. He had saw a drop in power on his scouter following a skyrocket, but it was greatly reduced now, it felt like Tomoroko and it was located at the ship. Riku hoped she was okay, he couldn't bare another comrade dying.
