Rukkora felt Radasha's hands grab her leg, then attempt to throw her off balance. Almost put off, she caught herself in the air, thinking it fortunate she can fly and stop herself. Just as that thought came, she saw Radasha thrust her hands forward and yell, her own arms coming forth to attempt to block some of it. The force of the shockwave pushed Rukkora backwards by a few feet, forcing the Saiyan to adjusts herself in the air.
Letting out a shout, she dropped her guard and brought both fists to either side, gathering energy within her hands. Aware that her spacepod and other items are nearby, she makes sure to try and close in her focus on Radasha as much as possible before loosing a volley of energy blasts at her, attempting to pepper the powerful woman with ki blasts and, at the very least, obscure her view and force her to move from the dust kicked up by the attack.
Naturally, having never had extended interaction with Radasha before now, Rukkora is unaware that her enemy can sense her ki.

Radasha raised a brow as her opponent seemed to be charging up something. Raising up her arms, she let the barrage of ki blasts the woman let loose hit her, not even bothering to dodge them. The explosions kicked up dust and debris around the Saiyaness. Lowering her hands she debated just making her come in the dust cloud after her. But a tickling sensation in her nose then a sneeze dispelled that thought. Radasha proceeded to slowly step backwards, away from where Rukkora was, out of the cloud. Still concealed sans the itchy nose from staying in the cloud. She hated dust...
Crossing her arms she waited for one of a few things to happen. More ki blasts could be expected.....She could attempt attacking at another angle. Or they'd just be standing there until the smoke cleared. The older Saiyan decided to wait to see which happened.

Waiting wasn't really what Rukkora had planned. Doing so would make the energy she just expended really pointless. Instead, she immediately began to move the moment the dust kicked up, getting a better view from above than Radasha would have from below. Rising above the dust cloud, rotating to the right, she could see Radasha back her way out of the dirt and debris of the ruined land below. She probably let herself get hit, something that irritated Rukkora but not to the point of humiliation. This was just sparring, after all.
Still, Rukkora wasn't going to show any less than her best to the other woman. Her pride wouldn't allow it. Energy began to form in her right hand, a glowing ball of power that she aimed by grabbing her wrist with the opposite hand. With a yell, her aura flared around her, glowing yellow against her features and lifting her hair slightly. Letting go, she attempted to catch Radasha partially from behind, letting loose a yellow stream of energy from her outstretched palm.

Radasha's eyes followed her movements even through the dust. Even without a scouter the Elite knew right Rukkora was. A slight smile played across her lips at what the woman tried to do. Oh she'd have to be a bit faster to catch Radasha off guard. With a crackle of purple ki, a blade formed around her hand. Kicking off the ground, Radasha cut THROUGH the beam, making beeline towards Rukkora.
Just as the blade neared Rukkora's chest, Radasha let it dissipate. If Rukkora didn't move, Radasha's bare finger tips would touch her in the center of her chest. Radasha just floated there, awaiting the woman's next move.

At this point, Rukkora began to feel a knot in her stomach as the other woman shot off the ground and straight towards her. Like nothing, her own attack was sliced in half, harmlessly dissipating into the air around Radasha as she flew forward directly into her direction. There was no way to avoid this kind of thing so long as Radasha was faster than herself, and yet she still had to try. This was a battle between Saiyans, she didn't expect Radasha to take her so lightly as to not risk any injury to her at all.
Of course Rukkora tried to move; there was no way she could know it was about to dissipate. Her beam finished, and she attempted to fly to the left only to feel Radasha's fingertips touching the center of her breast. The look on her face turned from humiliating fear to plain humiliation, her tanned face going involuntarily red as she stared silently at Radasha. Her lips parted and the knot in her stomach only grew tighter. Ever since she began feeling like she'd hit a wall, her pride had been hurting. Seeing how her attacks not only didn't phase the woman before her, but flat-out didn't seem to affect her at all made her recall how she used to feel training with her father. Not a pleasant memory.
Taking a deep breath, Rukkora, quite slowly, reached out to grab Radasha's hand in her own and gathered her face into a smaller, more natural frown, as opposed to the mortified grimace she took on moments ago. The larger woman swallowed in her throat. "You're really powerful," she said, her eyes affixed on Radasha's, "I guess it's only natural you wouldn't take me seriously, huh?" She was making it clear: she would have preferred Radasha stab her in the chest and either leave her to deal with it or get her to a rejuvenation tank. And yet, at the same time... "Cutting through the energy wave, huh? That was actually really impressive to look at." Cracking a smile, she exhaled through her nose and tilted her head to the right.
"So. Are we going to do this, or are we still warming up?"

Radasha raiseda brow when the other woman grabbed her hand. It seemed she was more than a little annoyed with Radasha treating the spar lightly. Well to be fair the other woman could've removed her weights to even up with her by now. She didn't blame her....it would be more beneficial if she wore them while training. "Hm...You want me to be more serious?" she asked, giving a slight chuckle. Well...the big woman asked for it. With small smile, the elite floated back a bit, hands held up in a shrugging gesture "Okay."
There was a moment of silence before Radasha suddenly shouted; "ON GUARD", before she suddenly spun, tail lashing out in an attempt to wrap around her neck. If successful, Radasha would quickly spin again and release to send Rukkora down to the ground below, flying down after her. "LET'S GET THIS DANCE UNDER WAY THEN!"

Rukkora reacted immediately as Radasha said "on guard", taking a defensive stance and raising her arm to take her tail. She instinctively tries to grab it as it wraps around her large forearm... but to no avail, Radasha clearly trained away that weakness already. Rukkora cursed herself for not assuming that sooner. Unfortunately, the woman's tail, regardless of whether it wrapped around her neck or her arm, was strong enough to toss her anyway. The larger Saiyan struggled to adjust herself in the air, turning to face Radasha as she fell. Putting her hands forward, she attempted to blast Radasha in the face with a ki blast, hopefully temporarily blinding her again.

Radasha had chuckled when the woman tried going for her tail. Why would she have used it in the first place if she could be weakened by it? No...The saiyan had trained that weakness away quite some time ago. It was now a fifth limb she could use to attack. Of course she probably would not try that against someone who could cut it off, but she no longer had to worry about being paralyzed from it being manhandled. Someone who grabbed or touched it would usually have gotten a severe response though...But since Radasha was already throwing the large woman around, she could let that slide.
Seeing the ki blast heading for her, Radasha crossed her arms in a defensive position then sped up her descent, purple ki erupting around her as she rocketed through the blast, coming at Rukkora like a Saiyan missile. Well....she couldn't see the way her arms were at least?

Too fast to dodge or outmaneuver, too strong to overpower, too tough to harm, and too skilled to weaken. Rukkora realized that her challenge had put her in an awkward situation yet, as she descended, flipping back and adjusting her feet toward the ground, she realized something. Radasha flying towards her, a purple bullet of pure Saiyan power... Rukkora was having fun with this opponent. That was something she really hadn't been able to say since her days as a gladiator! A genuine grin appeared on her face the moment her legs hit the ground and her weighted body cracked the lifeless, dusty earth beneath her feet.
Knees bent, Rukkora blasted back at full force towards Radasha, fist outstretched and hair flowing behind her. This wasn't a fight she could win, no point in worrying about it now. In fact, this was better than anything she could have hoped for. All hesitation or fear of losing, her feelings on inadequacy and her need to grow stronger seemed to disappear in the heat of the moment as the wind battered her face and her yellow aura surged around her body. This was what it meant to live, she thought, moments away from intentional collision.
A loud crack erupted from Rukkora's arm as she made contact with Radasha's body, the superior force of the other Saiyan overwhelming her. Rukkora didn't even feel the pain of her bones shattering, but she would the moment her adrenaline ran out. She'd sacrificed her arm rushing this woman and whatever was to follow was certainly going to be painful, as she hadn't done anything to stop Radasha's descent whatsoever. She'd probably get smashed into the ground. Totally worth it.

Radasha felt the impact of Rukkora's fist against her and heard the sound of something breaking. Well that hadn't been a good idea on the other woman's part. Suddenly braking her movement, Radasha stopped midair, letting the other woman continue to the ground. She looked down at her with a raised eyebrow. "You know you could've dodged that right?" she called down below. What was it with people taking her head on during spars. First that fool Natto did it now this woman. She just chuckled, slowly floating down towards the ground, watching the woman to see if she could get up and if she'd continue. Good thing Vegeta had much better medical care than Earth. Who even used casts and splints anymore in hospitals?
The last person she injured during a training match had some broken bones as well. Radasha got to see first hand how inferior Earthling medicine was to the SSE's. Healing Tanks had started becoming common on world within the SSE and even the AE. Namek didn't even need them considering their people's natural healing abilities. Earth's primitive medicine just seemed like another mark against them. That and their military's lack of ki-training.

Rukkora's body slammed back against the ground with a crack. She stared up at Radasha for a moment, letting out a laugh at the woman's words. She must have thought her a damned idiot for doing that, but even the incredible pain now shooting through her weighted and broken arm didn't seem to phase her. "Yeah, probably!" Rukkora yelled back, her legs raising as she hopped to her feet, arm limp at her side. "But I can't outrun you anyway! Can't overpower you, and even trying to outsmart you would only work for a little while - plus, it feels underhanded, and this is sparring, right?" She raised her unbroken hand into the sky, making a fist, "The only thing I can do, at least the only option that seems right to me, is to bash my head against the wall until either it breaks, or I do!"
Slowly, she lifted off the ground and pointed her palm towards Radasha. "It's like when I used to spar with my old man..." Energy began to form in her hand, the power making her wince in pain from the damage done to her broken arm. "Except, you know, there's one big difference..." she said as she began to charge up a blast at Radasha. She was either trying to test and see how much it takes to actually hurt her or willingly opening herself up to being attacked. No matter what, she was indicating that she wasn't going to stop the sparring match until one of them is unconscious. Even if it seemed stupid to Radasha, and it probably really was stupid, Rukkora was starting to have the time of her life. She got a big, wide, goofy grin on her face, the kind you'd see on a cheerful human child's, not a hardened Saiyan warrior's, as she exclaimed, "I'm actually having a lot of fun fighting with you!"

Radasha chuckled as she watch the other woman stand and speak. She responded as Rukkora charged up her attack. "If an opponent falls victim to something they didn't take into account, some weakness they did not guard, well....It's not your fault for their lack of foresight. I think it'd be more impressive taking down a opponent of greater strength with a well thought out strategy than just assaulting them head on. If the wall doesn't break through brute force, then find a crack.....That said, it WAS pretty underhanded going for my tail..." she said, laughing a bit. "Unfortunately for you I've trained that particular weakness away. I still dislike people touching it...so you're lucky you're in as good a shape as you are. I figured the slam into the ground was punishment enough."
As she landed, she crossed her arms again, tail swaying in anticipation, similar to how a feline's would. "You could've dropped the weights at any time to become even with me I bet. But I'm under the impression you don't care about who wins or loses this spar. Let's see how much power you can muster in your weighted down state. Give me your best shot.." she said, uncrossing her arms and holding them out as if welcoming the upcoming attack. Her aura erupted around her like a purple flame, giving the woman a rather sinister glow. Leaning forward a bit, she braced herself.

Rukkora could already tell based on her previous readings that this wasn't exactly going to work out for her. At most, her basic energy wave would get up to something like 4800, and that was nowhere near good enough to harm Radasha. The smile on her face widened a bit and she began to reminisce for a moment.
In that moment, she was small, her skin missing scars and a frightened expression on her face. She was standing in a gravity chamber, the white, square-tiled floor and domed ceiling given a red and black color scheme that gave the area an unwelcoming, evil vibe. With a power level of 100, she couldn't believe she was forced to stand here. Her eyes turned to a furious-looking Saiyan with long, black hair. He towered over the Saiyan child, a man whose shadow could engulf even other adults. He turned to look at her, his long, black mustache grown to belt-length and his spiked, black beard making him look every inch the savage barbarian he was. His muscles were massive and his left shoulder bore black tattoos. In his hand was Rukkora's current weapon - the energy axe she'd eventually taken from him.
Makotsu spoke wordlessly, informing Rukkora of what was about to happen. Rukkora tried to protest, tell him she wasn't ready. He turned the gravity up regardless and, in a flash, he was in front of her and his knee sunk into her stomach, sending her flying into the nearby wall. His fists were like rain, pouring down furiously onto her tiny body. A blood vessel broke in her eye, her lips busted, her ribs shattered, and she could barely breathe. He grabbed around her neck with his tail and held her aloft, flying effortlessly in this gravity, his power level reaching close to the then-incredible height of 10,000. As the chamber tugged Rukkora's broken body down, Makotsu seemed intent on holding her until her neck broke, staring into his daughter's eyes with something more sinister than a simple desire to train her. Folding his arms, he berated her, then tossed her aside. It would be almost half a day before her mother, Marantha, would find and gather her broken body up to be rejuvenated.
Energy pooled in Rukkora's palms, growing larger, large enough to wipe out a village, but nowhere near large enough to put a dent in Radasha. She was beginning to appreciate the nostalgia.

Well it was obvious Radasha was not going to be as harsh as her father. While indeed she had broken something, she was actually taking this as a spar and not an excuse to beat down someone weaker than her. She probably could've ended the fight very quickly by now. But that wouldn't have gotten the best results. As Rukkora charged her attack, the other woman began to slowly approach her. She wouldn't reach her before Rukkora fired at the pace she was going but, well she hadn't planned on dodging anyway. "Heh, getting a good work out?" she asked as she stepped toward Rukkora, fingers flexing in preparation of Rukkora's attack.

"You know it!" replied Rukkora as she prepared to release the energy held in her hands. She let out a growl, the weights hampering her full potential. Had she taken them off, this would have made a dent, but Rukkora only had a very small idea of how powerful this woman really was. If she wanted to test her limitations again, if she wanted to really know how much more she'd have to gain to count herself among the strongest, she'd have to see the gap between her and someone who hadn't even breached the Super Saiyan wall yet (to her knowledge) and judge it with her own eyes. Pushing her hand forward, the yellow beam of energy shot out from her palm and shot directly toward Radasha's body, encased in violet ki. Her yellow aura pooled into the blast, dark hair blowing in the wind behind her. The flash of light blinded the warrior for a moment, then the dust kicked up and obscured her vision. She stared where Radasha stood, still able to hear the other Saiyan's power surging.
