Another night spent tossing and turning, dreaming of the past. For the human, Sangu, the past was a dark one filled with betrayal and destruction. Not long ago, he was one of the four "Aces" for the Arcosian Planet Pirate Corporation, a secret society led by "King Cube", a powerful Arcosian who would send his group to small planets and moons to conquer them to sell on the black market.
It was that night of dreams though where Sangu would be awakened by the sound of a battle outside the small teepee he'd been given by his sensei, Shojiro. He sprung up from his cot and ran to the opening, seeing that same dreaded armor used by the APPC. He'd know it anywhere, as most of the Arcosians had worn it in his encounters them.
He felt his blood begin to boil as he saw the soldiers making short work of Vyrna and Shojiro, and exploded forward through the opening with an exclamation. "STOP THIS NOW, DUKE!"
Duke was a self entitled Arcosian who had led him many times into battle as the "Ace of Spades". He himself was once known as the "Ace of Diamonds" as King Cube had called him his "Diamond in the Rough", due to him being the rough human that he was.
The Arcosian held Shojiro by the throat for a moment before dropping the old Sensei, turning to look at his former friend with a smirk. "Well, well, well...I thought you may show your face if we just baited you a little."
A sneer crossed the face of the young human as he now stood in front of his two new friends. "You KNOW that I was never one to back down from a fight, Duke. You're not coming to THIS planet and terrorizing it's people! Oh hell no!"
"Oh really? And who's going to stop us?! You, a weak human, who has never beaten me in out eight years of knowing one another? I think not, Sanguinis. You're just having those pipe dreams again!" He thought he was right, as usual. His amusement grew ever more as he watched Sangu stagger his stance and narrow his eyes on him. "OHHOHO...you want to fight ME? And lose, again, no doubt?"
Vyrna looked on with worry. She knew that Sangu was outmatched and outnumbered by the aliens. She also knew, however, that there was no telling the bull headed man otherwise once he'd set his mind to something. She scurried over to Master Shojiro as the APPC surrounded Sangu.
Sangu stood strong, staying as calm as a still pond. He watched their every move, and almost found himself able to..."sense" them. Suddenly, his lips curled upwards into a smile. "Funny. Something seems different than before, eh? You guys just don't seem as powerful as you used to be."
"What is he talking about?" Vyrna thought as she saw his confidence rising.
"BAH! What are you babbling on about, Earthling?"
It was then that Sangu went on the attack, his movements deliberate and very strong. For each Arcosian set upon him, he would throw them off in different directions. Uppercut. Rising knee. Hard roundhouse to the face. One by one, Duke's men would fall. Needless to say, Duke wasn't a happy Arcosian right now. "YOU MORONS! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" He had to calm down. He knew it. As his men now cowered behind him, he smirked. "Oh well. I suppose if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself."
"You and what army? I just kicked their asses, easily. You don't get it, do you Duke-y? I have become more powerful than you remember. Heck, I can even tell that you're at your limit right now. Your power doesn't even concern me."
(Ki Sense Learned!)
Ever the arrogant prick, Duke refused to believe what Sangu had said. He lunged forward with a barrage of punches, each of which was blocked by the Fire Hearted Warrior. Sangu would counter with a knee to the midsection, and as Duke doubled over in pain, he would drive the point of his elbow into the back of his neck.
Face down, rump up. Duke shook his head and looked up at Sangu. "Ugh...you...where did you get such power?"
"Hard work? I dunno. But this is the part where you and your men get back into your little space pods...and get your arses off this planet!" There was that newfound confidence once again. Honestly, Sangu had sworn not to kill another soul if he could held it. The Ace of Diamonds stepped back from Duke and commanded him "LEAVE!"
Duke stood up, still clutching his stomach. Blood running down his chin, he shook his head and issued a warning to the human. "You may have won this round, Sangu. But mark my words, we will return! You can't escape your past!"
And so the small strike team got back into their space pods, and took off into space. Meanwhile, Sangu moved over to Vyrna and Shojiro and kneeled. "Are you guys okay?"
Vyrna smiled brilliantly up at the good hearted warrior who'd just protected her and Shojiro whereas the Sensei...well...
BOP!
"OUCH!" Sangu yelled out in pain as he was slugged in the chin by the old sensei. Our scene ends with Shojiro admonishing Sangu for bringing those, and I quote, "ugly aliens" to Earth. But at the end of the night, Shojiro chuckled. They all shared a good laugh, because Sangu had embarrassed the APPC.
Sangu was proud of himself for not killing the Arcosians, but this had a lasting affect on him. He didn't trust Arcosians...
