Although Reikiko had expected a potential attack, she certainly didn't think it would have come from the cloaked figure beside her. Even with her swift reactionary skills she was only barely able to drop her barrier into a guarding stance, the fist colliding against her raised arms had only been momentarily slowed, yet what followed afterwards was something she had never expected. The angry glare of the grey-haired warrior had made her eyes widen in surprise, her voice clearly betraying her disbelief.
"B---Bing?"
The momentary surprise had made her realize she had lost focus on her guard, the sheer strength of the punch forcing her briefly to grind backwards against the rooftop. Was it really him? If it was then his strength had grown enormous since their last meeting, but it was an impossible meeting. In the end the man known as Bing Gan had died. She needed answers, answers away from the potential deception of the queen so when her guard was on the verge of being broken she briefly allowed her lips to curve up into the subtle hint of a grin. The punch did tear through her guard after a moment had passed, sending her flying backwards through the air, while the bio-android swiftly regained her balance from the recoil mid-flight and with several backwards hops from building to building made sure the two of them had been a generous distance away from the brawl. She was pretty confident he would follow after her, but that rage within his voice was unnatural. Not to mention the metal pieces on his body. There was no doubt about it, something had happened during the day Earth's Kami had fallen.
"Is that really you Bing?"
Her tone seemed softer than a moment ago, but after whatever answer he had provided her eyes narrowed into a glare. She rubbed her wrists lightly, the impact of the Kami's attack seemingly having left some serious pain in them. Even her Namekian powers weren't enough to do more than slowly lessen it, rather than recover it instantly. That punch truly was beyond the capacities of the man she had known.
"So this... is the way Zucceta repaid you?"
Her tone had clearly grown darker, her aura flaring outwards as a gust of wind escaped from her body. She was angry, truly angry at what she had just witnessed.
"I came here to find out why Zucceta desires to conquer all I... no that WE sworn to protect! And instead she committed the worst possible taboo?!"
Her body lunged forwards, fist raised in an attempt to punch the cyborg's face.
"You were supposed to have perished Bing Gan! How! How could she have done this?! To reward the man who allowed her the challenge that would make her ascend to such a state... BY ROBBING HIM OF EVERYTHING HE REPRESENTED!"
Even if her first punch had failed she would have attempted to strike a second time with her other arm.
"Tell me it's a lie! Tell me you're just some creation she made to mock us! Does she even realize what she has done?!"
Her shout was accompanied by a sideways swing of her leg, seemingly an attempt to finish her flurry, yet she was certain the man would strike, if he didn't already do it by then. It seemed they had a lot to talk about, even if this was the worst type of battle they could experience.

[This thread is a direct split from Taking All Comers] [Thread PL: 319,546 | SSE Subservience Program Active. Current PL: 9,266,834] Bing's furious scowl persisted as he followed the Crane Sensei across the sky. He followed her quite a ways, stopping on the same rooftop as the Queen of Beetles. She seemed quite surprised at Bing's current fate, as was to be expected. The Bio-Android posed a worried question, but he responded with unnerving anger in his voice. "Yeah, it's the old Gan in the flesh! I hope my intrusion doesn't hurt your plans too much!"He stared with contempt as she rubbed her wrists. It seemed she was hurt a bit more than expected. Her voice turned to one with coldness as she spoke again, asking another question. Bing decided not to respond with words, simply nodding towards his former friend. She continued getting angrier, her once kind voice resorting to anger as she rushed forwards. She attempted to punch Bing in the face, but he was able to block with his metallic forearm. Her anger continued to rise as she attempted a second punch, which was blocked as well, this time by Bing's human arm. "There are no lies here, Crane. I am the real Bing Gan. This is my ... Punishment for failing to stop the Queen. I work for her now." There was a hint of sadness in the Old Guardian's voice, revealing he still had some small bit of his former self left inside this shell. As Reikiko's foot came in, Bing blocked the hit quite easily by bringing up his metallic forearm once again. He frowned as he lowered his arm, before suddenly jolting forwards, attempting to elbow the Crane Sensei in the stomach. Should the attack land, Reikiko would most likely stumble backwards. "You should never have come here, Reikiko. Staying home and playing Pretend Goddess would have been better for everyone." He clenched his fists as he moved forwards, his disappointed frown becoming one of anger instead. "I gotta be honest, I always wanted to smack you around for letting Kaula kill an innocent while I was busy with Realigner Red. I guess this is my time to shine!" He let out a shout, allowing a burst of Kiai to explode from him. Lightning danced around his form as he settled into his Serpent Style stance.
"Let's see if that Crane Style of yours can still keep up."

The revelation that Bing was actually working for Zucceta hit her like a knife, a knife that easily dug through her carapace, and while she wasn't sure she had one, if she did it would certainly have reached her heart. While her punches were blocked with surprising ease, the moment her leg collided against his arm, the metallic part easily absorbing most of the blow yet the elbow that hit her in the stomach made the bio-android stagger backwards, a gasp of pain escaping her lips before she regained her balance. Her eyes focusing on the cyborg she spoke, her tone a mixture of sorrow and anger.
"Is that it Bing? Is that how the successor of my father's legacy would meet his end?!"
The Kiai that exploded from him was intense, a burst of air nearly making her stagger, yet through sheer determination she kept herself from being blown backwards, gritting her teeth in frustration.
"I never was a goddess. I was, and still am just a fool trying to play the role of the savior she was never meant to be."
She shook her head lightly, tightening up her fists as she voiced her frustration, her words carrying a certain loneliness in them.
"Do you even realize the situation Earth is in? Do you even REALIZE what your 'death' had caused?"
She growled at the word she used, clearly agitated at the fact Bing was not 'exactly' death. Yet as the man tried to provoke her, dropping into the familiar stance she whispered sorrowfully.
"Do not use that stance... That one belongs to Etoru and the master he loved so dearly!"
At this point her aura flared outwards, a violent crimson flash erupting from her body while she continued.
"That boy... He could have grown up to become a splendid man, a worthy follower to your teachings... Instead he became forced to walk my path! Your death brought him such grief he lost sight of the things you taught him! He blindly follows the path of revenge for the sake of obtaining the power to kill Zucceta. Your death turned a boy who could someday become a hero into an avenger!"
The flash had clearly been accompanied by a rise of her energy, her aura burning more violently by the moment.
"And what about your Fiance?! Even now she tries to uphold the things you represented. Even now she is preparing to become the beacon of hope that you once were! How do you think Maeve will feel when she learns you are now a servant of the one who stole her husband?"
No, there was no other way for her to deal with this, just one possible solution to this nightmare.
"I... can't allow your loved ones to see you like this Bing. I might look like a monster, but my heart is still that of an Earthling. However, the true monster is the one who forced that destiny upon you! Consider it a gift from the daughter of your predecessor: I won't allow you to become like your master."
She took a deep breath, seemingly raising a arm upwards, pointing the palm of her hand toward him as she declared.
"For your sake, and for that of those you left behind. Let them believe the beautiful story that you died like a true hero. FOR I WILL KILL THE PUPPET YOU BECAME!"

"What? Earth is in turmoil and you LEFT?! You think you can just go off to dance around the stars with your wife while Earth is in trouble?!" He clenched his fist, shutting his eyes for a moment as he continued. "Do you think its right to leave our people with less and less defenders by the second? Soon enough, the only one left to defend the Earth will be Vi-Poi!" The lightning crackling around him increased in speed and intensity for a moment, before dying down again.
Reikiko seemed to dislike Bing's use of the Serpent Style, which caused a frown to form on the Fallen Guardian's face. Apparently, Etoru had become vengeful since he learned of Bing's 'death'. That boy was too innocent to be a harbinger of revenge! "Etoru is... Trying to avenge me? He can't ... I ... You shouldn't let him ..." As much as Bing tried to argue, he just couldn't find the right words. He simply stopped talking, shutting his eyes for a moment as Reikiko's aura surged to life.
As her power climbed, she brought up Maeve, causing the poor Cyborg's heart to sink. Even thinking about his Fiance was enough to cause him to lose any bit of happiness he might have had. The thought of her seeing him like this was simply unbearable. He grit his teeth in anger. "D-don't talk about Maeve... She won't find out about this ... I'll find a way to make sure she never finds out!"
The Crane Sensei raised her hand, allowing her power to rise further as she revealed her plan to kill him. Bing couldn't help frown in disappointment. "You think killing will solve this problem? Death brought this upon me; a second death won't save me from anything..."
Bing raised his metallic hand to match Reikiko's. While her energy climbed, his own energy simply burst outwards. A dazzling flash of light emitted from his palm, which would most likely blind the Crane Sensei just long enough for her to lose focus. Should she be stunned, he'd rush in quickly, letting loose a quick flurry of jabs aimed right at her mid-section. He'd finish off the flurry with a single, devastating uppercut, aimed for her chin.

"Is that what it looked like?! I came here to kill deal with Zucceta, and instead I got a traitor!"
Reikiko's tone was clearly agitated, preparing to unleash her attack. However, the moment the man seemingly had declared Maeve would never find out about his fate caused the bio-android to growl in anger. If only she had a bit more time to charge up her attack, then she could likely take him by surprise.
"She won't find out? Ignorant fool! By serving Zucceta you DOOMED Earth! At this rate Maeve's fate will be a cruel death or a eternity as a slave of the empire... because you started to pity yourself after one defeat?!"
However, the flash of light that followed had caused her to gasp in surprise, trying to raise her arm to shield herself from the energy, but it was a futile attempt. Her body had been paralyzed just long enough for him to enclose the distance, the flurry of jabs at her mid-section causing her body to be pushed backards, yet the uppercut never hit its target, instead making the bio-android grasp his arm with both her arms and in a desperately attempt tried to headbutt him with her crown.
"If you think I'm just out to kill you, then you truly have gone into the deep end. Just hope that you'll figure out my true intentions before it's too late..."
If her headbutt had succeeded in making the man flinch she would have suddenly pressed a hand right before his stomach, hoping to fire a ki wave against his body to knock him backwards, a motion followed by a swift pursue where she tried to lunge at him with a punch into hit gut.
"So are you about to try to kill me? Knowing that it will doom the planet you sworn to protect?"
She had to figure out if there was truly anything of the real Bing still there, a part of him that didn't become a puppet of the empire.
"Listen Bing..."
she sighed as she moved backwards, seemingly waiting for the serpent master to make his move in their brawl while she continued.
"There is a way to save Earth, and you but it's a way only you can accomplish! If there is still anything... anything left about the man known as Bing Gan then fight the empire's control over you!"
Her aura started to crackle more violently, but at the same time something happened... A sudden cough escaped from her mouth, her hand raised to cover it, and after a moment she could see the red stains on her hand.... blood.
"The only good thing that came from this is that you gained more strength. Pity you aren't using it for a worthy cause."
She suddenly darted forwards, her body seemingly wrapped in an aura of her energy when suddenly her body shimmered away from view, reappear right behind Bing's shoulder, a leg sweeping for his head, while her tail aimed toward the human skin on his back. Even if she couldn't get enough time to try to absorb the warrior, if she had just enough time to inject a bit of her venom into him her plan might still had a chance.

got charge interrupted by attack, Reikiko recovered just in time to avoid the uppercut, albeit the punches heavily battered her carapace and she is suffering from internal bleeding
Tried to use a ki wave at his stomach and then a punch at his gut to hopefully injure him
Finished this round by trying to ambush him and inject him with her venom
[UT:] Chimera Venom Stage 1: Bewitching Influence
If successful Bing will be given a telepathic connection to Reikiko, and at the end of his actions hear the following message.
There is only one way for me to save everyone... But for that to happen I need your help, fight the queen's control! If you can regain a grasp on who you truly are, the man you represented as Earth's Kami then I can ensure nobody will learn of your fate, nor will the empire make anymore Victims! If not for the sake of Earth, then for the sake of Etoru and Maeve! If there is ANYTHING left of the real you then give me a clue!"

"Maeve won't be hurt! We'll avoid Earth, I'll make sure of it! Even if we do invade Earth again, I can keep her from harm somehow if she shows up to defend the planet!"
Bing let out a shout as he unleashed his flurry of jabs, all of which seemed to hit their mark fairly well. It seemed, however, that the uppercut would be avoided -though only just barely. His arm was grasped by Reikiko, causing the Cyborg to let out a confused grunt. With his location locked, the Crane Sensei was clear to begin her counterattack: She moved her head forwards, attempting to butt heads with Bing. He smirked as Reikiko's cranium closed in, opting to match her headbutt with one of his own. Their heads smashed into one another, causing Bing to stumble back slightly from the force.
As he regained his composure, he felt a hand press against his stomach. Reikiko quickly fired a wave of Ki at point blank, causing Bing to get sent quite a bit a fair distance across the roof. He stopped himself with a small burst of Kiai, hovering in the sky for a moment as Reikiko kept up the pressure. She lunged forwards, aiming to slam her fist into Bing's stomach. This time however, he was a bit more prepared. He blocked the punch with his forearm, causing a small shock-wave of energy to burst from the impact point.
"I know what your intentions are, Crane! You wish to end me, then absorb me for selfish gain! Do you honestly believe yourself to be the only answer to the Solar Empire?! What of the Blue Banner, or the Zetto Senshi? Are they not important enough to help you stop us?!"
He sneered as Reikiko moved back, growling at her as she continued. She was trying to speak to the humanity left in Bing, but at the moment it was quite hard to reach him in anything more than small spurts. "Don't you get it? Bing Gan is DEAD! I can't use the name of a corpse ..."
It seemed Reikiko was a bit more wounded than she was letting on. She took a moment to cough, giving a somewhat excited look as she inspected the hand she used to cover her mouth. An odd compliment came from the girl, before she suddenly shimmered out of existence. He raised a brow hesitantly, waiting for her re-appearance with cautious interest. She certainly had a lot of options for approaching at the moment, meaning the Former Guardian would have to keep on his toes.
Soon enough, she reappeared, attempting to kick the Solar Cyborg right in the head. He swiveled around just in time, blocking the incoming leg with metallic arm. He was surprised to find that her next action was a stabbing attack with her tail. Was she trying to absorb him already?
The tail stabbed directly into his chest, injecting him with some type of venom. He growled angrily, grabbing at the tail with both of his hands as he stared at Reikiko with immense fury. "Can't control your hunger eh? It must be hard to stop yourself from absorbing your wife in the middle of the night while you're laying with her!" He let out a furious yell as he gripped the tail tighter, attempting to swing Reikiko around like a lasso, before tossing her towards the rooftop that lay just below them.
Regardless of whether or not he succeeded, he would descend back to the rooftop, where he would suddenly be afflicted with a mental message. It seemed Reikiko's poison had done more than simply try to soften up his insides for absorption.
The true Bing, one unaffected by his own decaying mind, replied in a somber tone. "Reikiko? Why are you talking to me? I thought I was pretty clear already: There's nothing you can do, and there's nothing I can do. I lost, plain and simple. You should just go home and warn the others before it's too late..."

Reikiko's retaliation seemed to had some form of effect, and although the android's metallic enhancements made him suffer far less damage than he normally would have had, the moment her tail swished forwards and the stinger dug into his body was at least a small light of hope within this twisted abyss. Still, even with her venom spreading through his body she had to make a decision, pull back before he could retaliate, or endure what was to come and continue with her scheme.
"The Blue Banner Army is remaining passive! They are blinded by their leader's strength, willingly awaiting an invasion of Earth! The Zetto Senshi? Don't mock me with that suggestion! THEY BECAME WEAK!"
Yet the moment her tail was grabbed and she was spun around like a lasso, tossed rather harshly toward the rooftop, her body crashing into it and the surface cracking under the pressure. Was this it? Was this the limit of her body's strength? However, it was at that moment two things happened. The first were the taunting words spoken by the cyborg, telling about a taboo that made the bio-android's eyes narrow in a glare. However, at the same time a softer voice whispered in her thoughts in a somber tone... the real Bing.
Although her body was slowly getting back up from the crash, she knew all too well that the way things were going she couldn't focus onto both the fight and her secret plan. But perhaps... perhaps she wasn't without options...
Do I have no choice but to do that?
She would need to rely on a certain side to her, a side that she'd rather not allow the world to see, but against an enemy like Bing she might had no other option... Not to mention that comment... Perhaps it would be fine for her to hand over the control to that side of her for just a bit.
"You really think I am such a monster I would devour the one I love? Then so be it.... I'll show you a TRUE PREDATOR!"
Letting out a furious shout the bio-android's aura seemed to twist into a more violent and primal feeling, and for a moment the cyborg might had felt something, an odd presence within the darkness of the aura. It was as if a certain super saiyan from the past had been concealing his power. However, instead of the expected response Reikiko had suddenly bend her body forwards, seemingly crouching down on both her arms and feet, but for some reason the entire way she carried herself was different. A certain ferocity that seemed unlike anything a human would possess, a primal instinct that was making her eyes seemingly resemble the slit-like irises of certain predators and finally the savage bloodlust of a true beast.... She had turned into a predator.
With a sudden gust of wind the bio-android had disappeared from the rooftop, her body reappearing right before Bing as she tried to strike his chin with her knee, and even if she didn't succeed the creature spun her body, a downwards kick with her foot following with a sideways swing of her tail toward his head, seemingly attempting to hit him hard enough to make him stagger.
However, despite the smirk of the creature a softer voice would have resounded in the cyborg's mind.
That's not like you Bing... To just throw in the towel because you lost. When you didn't find the answers you needed to follow my father's path, did you run away and give up? No, you continued persistently, and even reached out to others. You failed, but does that defeat mean it's fine for you to allow the destruction of everything you fought for, everyone you loved merely because of your desire to wallow in self-pity?
In the meanwhile the predator who had taken over her body licked her lips lightly at the bits of blood that were still lingering in the corner of her mind, and if the cyborg had to make any guess she might had truly lost herself to her primal instincts, truly to become just a wild animal.
I won't be able to continue for much longer, but if I fall here, or retreat then the only future will be one where the Saiyajin rule the galaxy. Vivi won't act till it's too late, and your friends are too weak to stop them. However, there is a way Bing. A way for you to still right the wrongs that happened by your defeat.
Although her body had tried to prepare to renew her assault the bio-android had staggered lightly, a hand resting on the cracked carapace of her chest. Her injuries really were getting the better of her... It made her actually snarl in anger!
I... never told anyone, the fact I hate absorbing. While it's true that I gain a power beyond imagination, there are only two ways I can put that power to use. I either convert it to raw energy, or obtain the true potential from this sacrifice to ascend to a power beyond imagination... at the cost of losing a part of my own identity.
She wasn't sure the hypnotic suggestion her venom would provide would be enough, but if it did the real Bing would likely have briefly seen a mental image of the day Reikiko absorbed Athren and ascended.
When I obtained power by absorbing that Supah Saiyajin a part of his very existence became a part of me. It's the reason why I steadily started to fall into a cycle of obsessive desire and hatred. In the end my only choice was to submit to those feelings, or to seal away his very essence as a darkness I could never accept as a part of me. It's for that reason I am incapable of giving you the fight you deserve...
The Bio-android panted lightly, seemingly attempting to regain her strength, and judging from the slow rise of her energy she was recovering little by little!
I can't beat Zucceta by myself, I'd just end up following in your footsteps Bing. However, if you truly care about Earth and the people that depend on you: Lend me your strength. If you can fight one more battle... one more struggle to show the world the hero you truly are then we can defeat the danger Zucceta and the empire represents. To be honest it disgusts me to make this plea, a sign of weakness I would have only shown to my father... but as the one who followed so splendidly after him I think you're the only one... the only one I can trust with this request.
The bio-android smirked viciously, seemingly allowing her aura to start building up again, as if she was planning something deathly...
Help me defeat the shadow cast over you Bing, help me destroy this metal prison that contains your soul. If we were to become one I would be able to obtain a power without equal, one that would allow me to obtain perfection. This isn't a matter of power anymore Bing, this is the act of creating the savior Earth and the galaxy needs! With my body and your wisdom I could become a being that could defeat the empire and protect everything we love. Albeit I admit it's a bit embarrassing to consider the fact that a part of you would be mine, at least your personality isn't rotten.
And then it happened. Her aura seemingly having regained its former nature the bio-android raised her hands into a pose the cyborg would likely recognize.
"I guess it's time for me to honor you with the full power this body of mine can hold. Prepare to face the true power of the Crane Grandmaster!"
That declaration, the steady rise in her energy... she was about to prepare something devastating! Yet despite the grin on her lips a final warning was given to Bing.
This is it Bing, if you plan to let your failures destroy all that you care for, then watch as this shadow of yours slays me. Then again, at the very least you get to see my own version of my master's teachings. If not, then now is the time to rise and fight!"
A sudden rush of energy came from Reikiko's body, her injuries seemingly slowly closing while her aura started to flare more violently.
"People always like to tell me that Kikoho is a poor choice of last words, but then again... not the worst mistake I made today. HA!"
A sudden Kiai accompanied her shout, her aura seemingly flaring more violently as the Bio-android's hands were raised before her, the familiar diamond-shaped window formation pointing at the fallen hero.
One last fight Bing Gan, one last struggle. See your duty as Kami through till the end, that's all I ask of you... not as a warrior of Earth, or Scargot's daughter. But as a friend!
This was it, an all or nothing approach. She could only hope that Bing still had the willpower to struggle, even if for a bit.

Post by Bing Gan on Apr 6, 2016 10:57:58 GMT
"So you call my warriors weak? Why not help them grow instead of casting them aside like peasants! You never had the Earth's interests in mind, you're just a selfish little girl who wants all the fame for herself! It's been that way ever since I met you! Have you ever given a thought as to why Virtual Poi and the Blue Banner have decided on hanging back for the moment? Maybe the Azure Administrator is using his head to think of a plan, rather than rushing in like a headstrong IDIOT!"He breathes heavily through gritted teeth as he watches Reikiko fall to the ground. It seemed his comment about absorbing Kaula had hit the softest spot the little Crane Sensei had on her. The Bio-Warrior let loose her maximum power; it seemed she had been holding back even though her life was on the line. As her power climbed, she taunted the Cyborg, calling herself a "true predator". Something about her Ki began to feel different now, however. She was ... Darker. A hint of familiar Super Saiyan Ki wafted through the murky villainy that coursed through Reikiko's aura. "That Ki... It's so very familiar..."The Fallen Guardian recalled a moment a few years ago. He was in the Serpent School dojo with his Father when they both sensed an incredible surge of Ki. It wracked their senses, causing Bing to worry a bit. Tang reassured him however, saying the Ki was simply connected to a shooting star that was passing by. At the time, Bing believed it. Now though it was quite clear what had happened to that Ki. "You were the one who snuffed out that Ki before I left my quaint little island in the middle of nowhere. Because of that Ki, my father pushed me so hard to get strong ... And when he stopped sensing it, he pushed me even harder than that..." He clenched his fist in anger, trying his best to simply forget the memory before mentioning more. It was clear the subject was something he wanted to avoid. He watched her curiously, noting her new, strange stance. It seemed a bit more feral; perhaps it was being used more as a distraction rather than a proper battle stance? Regardless, he would definitely have to keep on his toes. Suddenly, the Crane disappeared once more. He sighed in annoyance, waiting for her to return. "You better think up some new tricks, birdie. This one is getting old." As Reikiko shimmered back into existence, it seemed she was already primed for an attack. She launched her knee up towards the Cyborg's chin with ferocity unbecoming of a Martial Arts Master. As the knee closed in, Bing lurched backwards, narrowly avoiding the appendage. Reikiko wasn't done yet, however; she brought her foot back down quickly, aiming to smash it right into Bing's beautiful grey hair. He hopped to the side, once again just barely avoiding her attack. The Cyborg smirked at her new-found intensity. Perhaps this would actually be a proper challenge. Reikiko came in swinging again, this time using her powerful tail to smack into Bing's side. The tail smacks into him full-force, causing the Former Guardian to stagger slightly. As the two battle on the outside, a battle on the inside also rages. Reikiko continued to plead with Bing, but it seemed to be getting her nowhere. She pleaded as much as she could, but the kind voice of the true Bing Gan stayed mostly silent. He wasn't really sure what to tell her. His thoughts were plagued with insecurities the world over. "Rei... I ... Don't know what to do... I've lost before, believe me. But this? This is different. It's not something you just push past. Being strapped up with this machinery is something else entirely..."While the spirit of a former Guardian contemplates his actions, his shadow chuckles. It seemed that the Bio-Droid had been wounded quite severely if her battered shell was any indication. "What's wrong, Rei-Sama? Did I hit your carapace too hard?"He gave her a moment to recuperate, and it seemed she was able to do so quite quickly. Her Ki erupted around her once more as she began to prepare her signature move: The Kikoho. "Ah, the trump card! I was hoping you'd pull this out at least once more."As she allowed her power to climb, the Cyborg contemplated what move he should use to counteract this skill. It only took him a moment, before a sly smirk appeared on his featured. He clasped his hands together, allowing both index fingers to point outwards, directly at Reikiko. "You said you didn't want me using the Serpent Style, yeah? Well then, why don't I show you something I've been concocting for a very long time... If you look hard enough, it might seem quite familiar!"A small orb of Ki blipped into existence at his combined fingertips. Slowly, it began to expand, giving off a radiant light as it charged up to full strength. Reikiko would most likely recognize the technique instantly: It was the Dodonpa, only the hand position was altered quite a bit. The orb continued to grow in power, nearly mirroring the growth of the Kikoho! Although it could be stronger, something was stopping him from using his absolute maximum. It was a nagging feeling that made him want to hold back just a bit. It would make the victory all the more sweeter, after all. From the mindscape, Reikiko would hear a familiar, somber voice. This time however, he seemed just a tiny bit more upbeat. "Reikiko, I'm doing something! It's not much, but my full power isn't being used. Maybe it'll give you a small edge."

Power... If there was one thing Reikiko had always desired, then it was without a doubt power. To obtain power meant she would be a step closer to true perfection, the ability to ascend to the state she was born to be. Yet this time she desired power for a different reason. Taking a deep breath Reikiko prepared herself for the inevitable clash, but it would be a clash where she would force the cyborg to fight to his fullest. She was already aware of the malevolent presence she sensed within her, and in the back of her mind she knew who it was. The twisted presence of the super saiyan of West Capitol had emerged in her thoughts, his essence forming a psyche of its own as she saw the mental image of the man known as Athren manifest beside her.
So finally you decided to accept it, didn't you? The fact that we are more alike than you want to admit.
The voice disgusted her, but yet she couldn't help but feel the power gathering in her aura steadily growing more violent by the second. Yes, this was clearly the result of the super saiyan's essence lending her its strength. Although she had tried to convince everyone she had been freed of that tainted power, the truth was she had not burnt it away, but forcefully sealed the power, refusing to use it at all. The hand of the Super Saiyan stretched into the direction of the cyborg as he declared in amusement
Show him... show him true terror and power!
No, this power alone wouldn't be enough... If she wanted to defeat Bing she needed to pull out so much more. Even the super saiyan who had been consumed by the madness of his own power wouldn't be able to match this strength. Her lips briefly curving up into a smile she allowed her body to channel another source of power, the one that had allowed her to ascend to this form in the first place: Walker. The tall treeman towered behind her, his body concealed under his attire, and the large hood covering most of his face.
It's a pity it has to be this way... But before creation there has to come destruction.
They were oddly nostalgic words, but even with the bark-like hand resting on her shoulder she knew this level of power wouldn't be enough... she needed more before she could stop the cyborg! Perhaps... perhaps she had no choice but to even ask 'her' for help. In the meanwhile, seemingly determined she took the opportunity to whisper something, and yet her words didn't seem to reach either Bing or the Cyborg
Yuki... I'm sure you'll be able to hear me. I'm afraid that I'll likely be taking a bit of a vacation, a vacation you or Hikari can't accompany me on. Don't be too upset please, I did this so that I could ensure you'll be able to continue experiencing those happy days we shared. I promise you that I'll be back, let's go and have some more ice-cream then shall we? Maybe I'll ask Katsu to join again, and invite you to meet someone really special.
And then she decided to proceed with her plan, the plan that would possibly save the galaxy.
Hikari, I don't have much time. I want you to listen carefully to what I'm about to say. I left for Vegeta in the hope of assassinating the queen, but ran into some... troubles.
For a moment she couldn't help but smile wryly at the way she described the situation.
I... failed. I'm going to try to take down her triumph card, but at this rate Earth will be doomed if nobody takes action. Knowing you, you'd likely be aware of my decision, and tried to gather people to save me, but it's too late. However, please rally the strongest people of Earth to attack the empire as soon as they can. I'm sure that after what I'm about to tell you Vivi won't hesitate anymore.
She looked at the cyborg for a moment, her lips seemingly forming into some soundless words and an apologetic smile as she continued.
Bing... he is a prisoner of the empire, Zucceta seemingly turned him into a thing that is neither alive or dead, a weird mixture of human and android... I guess they call it a cyborg. At this rate I'm expecting that within the near future any chance of saving the galaxy from the empire will be gone. However, tell him to keep this a secret from everyone. I'm sure he'll find a way to deal with Bing, but... Make sure he can ensure Etoru and Maeve not to find out about him.
Her energy had already doubled beyond her normal capacity, and yet it seemed she was charging even beyond the usual limits of her power!
Tell Letu I'm sorry... and that I'll try my best to keep my promise, both to train her and bring Kaula back with me, albeit might be a bit tough when I'm about to die. Then again, you got your way with words and convincing people when you truly want to. Also, you can give Etoru permission to use my old training module, tell him that until he finishes it... that he won't have graduated from 'revenge against Zucceta' school.
The Bio-android's lips curved up into a smirk as she finally conveyed her last words to the Earthbound warrior
Hikari... thank you for everything.
There was nothing more to say...
"Yo Zucceta's Metallic Whipping boy, to call this just a mere triumph card is rude! This isn't an ordinary Kikoho, if you are getting wet feet you might better start running!"
It was a playful taunt, but if she could hit his pride then she might had a chance.
Kaula... Really wish I taught you the ability to sense ki... But if I'd call you now... we'd likely both die...

The Cyborg's body pulsated with hateful Ki as his specialized attack continued to build in strength. Despite his higher power, Reikiko's Kikoho was keeping a steady pace with him. It was interesting, to say the least. Perhaps if she had taken the time out to teach Bing this skill, this bout would be over a bit quicker. He could have fired his attack now, but doing so would be a definite risk. In the time it would take to fire his own blast, hers would most certainly gain a lead in terms of power. He scowled as Reikiko taunted him. "That's all your fancy technique is, Crane. It's a simple trick, nothing more."

Reikiko couldn't help but smirk at the response of the cyborg, it seemed she did succeed in hitting a nerve or two. After a moment the bio-android's eyes shifted down to her hands, watching the energy slowly manifest physically. It wasn't a crimson glow however, but a yellowish golden as sparks of energy erupted around her aura. Although her body was starting to feel the strain of burdening itself with so much energy she wasn't going to give up. Not here, and certainly not now! Still, as her heart secretly called out for more power she could hear a faint whisper, a nostalgic voice calling her from afar while suddenly the energy of her absorbed sister Keiko started to manifest into her body.
The old man is waiting for you Onee-sama. However, before we go... let's go out with a BANG!
Reikiko couldn't help but smirk at her sister's suggestion, making the bio-android take a deep breath when she finally cast her gaze onto the cyborg, silently whispering to the real Bing.
Hope you're ready to see fireworks Bing... If this fails I guess I just got another failure to add to my list~
"Sorry to disappoint you robopot, but this isn't going to be an ordinary Kikoho!"
Well, with her aura flaring so violently that much was certain!

The two warriors continued to climb higher and higher in strength, reaching levels others could only dream of! Clouds started to form above the duo as their Ki climbed, setting the perfect backdrop for this deadly confrontation. The Cyborg glanced upwards, noticing that the clouds looked ready to drop a rainstorm upon them. "Alright then, let's see what's so special about this one! Hit me with all you've got; I assure you it won't be nearly enough!"Bing spoke from inside, a happier tone in his voice than before. "You can do it Rei, I'm sure you can!"

Post by Kaula on Apr 6, 2016 22:52:19 GMT
Kaula - JOINS THE BATTLE! Power Level: 262,300 The Saiyaness had quickly left the capitol's square where queenie mc queen was. However, she hadn't gotten here fast enough. She stopped, midair, as she stared at the scene below. Her hidden eyes first glanced at Reikiko. She was using the forbidden technique. Sure, Kaula was quick to use it.. But Reikiko.. Her sensei.. She was more.. Reserved when it came to the Kikoho. Not only that, but Kaula was sure she was charging it to dangerous levels. But the Saiyaness had faith that she wasn't going to over charge it, at least. After that.. That was when Kaula saw.. Him. She almost didn't believe it at first. It looked like Bing.. But it wasn't him. The hair was still there. He looked human on first glance. But now.. He definately wasn't. He had no Ki. Parts of him were a metallic kind of shiny. "No.." Kaula first mumbled. It wasn't Bing. This was some weird.. Fake.. Bastardization. It had to be. He died. However. Kaula had no time to be sure about what it could be. She let out a loud shrill yell as she powered up. Her hair spiked outwards, obtaining that lustrious golden glow of the Super Saiyan as she took her place near Reikiko. She was building up energy. The golden aura flared around Kaula as she stood up straight. Whatever she was doing, she was mustering up her energy to help Rei. "Someone's going to have to tell me what the fuck's going on after we kick this tin can's ass for looking like Bing!" the Saiyaness roared out.

Kaula's arrival was a reassuring presence, that much was sure, yet at the same time it also filled her heart with grief. If Kaula had decided to show up it meant Bing would very likely target her next, and that was something she wouldn't, and couldn't allow to happen. Despite the restlessness she felt at the sight of her lover charging her attack Reikiko did have an idea, or rather a thought. The way things were right now Bing would likely need to make a decision, and fast. If he focused on Reikiko's attack he would likely be hit by Kaula, that much was certain, but at the same time the bio-android wanted to make sure she could at least allow her lover to escape.
"I'm sorry you had to see this Kaula... SHIN!"
Her body suddenly emitted a bright flash as the glowing energy in the window her hands had formed manifested physically, a gigantic ray of burning energy crashing toward the cyborg. However, even if he had tried to clash with her attack, or negate it somehow he would likely notice the moment the ray faded that the energy in her hands had not yet faded away. However, didn't she fire a Kikoho already?!
"KI!"
The first shout was accompanied by another violent burst of ki, the power manifesting physically in the form of a second ray of scorching energy that headed straight toward the cyborg and his potential assault. However, as the smoke would settle from the first two beams Reikiko's aura had truly reached its peak.
"KO!"
A third beam had been launched, this one even more violent than the previous ones, yet at the same time she fired it the bio-android felt the muscles in her body tear at the strain, and the cough that followed clearly was a bad sign as hit the back of her hands. Yet wavered and determined she shouted as her final projectile was ready.
"GO TO HELL!"
The final ray was unleashed, but by now the backlash had grown so intense that her sight blurred and she collapsed backwards, her body rocketing toward the surface. With the fast decline of her energy it was clear that she had only a few seconds, perhaps at best a minute or two before she would die. However, with her body so severely damaged there was no way even a Senzu bean or her Namekian regeneration would have saved her...

It seemed both Fighters were soon to peak in strength. Their powers reached unspeakable levels as they continued to charge, causing the winds above to howl madly in response. Planet Vegeta itself trembled under the might of these two titans. The Cyborg grinned as he felt his power pulse. His customized technique was primed and ready to take down the fabled Kikoho and its user.
As he awaited Reikiko's blast to fire, his senses alerted him to the incoming presence of someone familiar. A second Crane Warrior had arrived: Kaula Flahwur. She seemed to be confused by Bing's appearance, despite his apparent death. As one would expect, the Super Saiyan began charging up her own Ki, hoping to assist her lover in some way. With a helper on Reikiko's side, things might be a bit more difficult. Regardless, the Cyborg was confident he could prevail. "Don't you get it? You can't win here! This is where the Crane School will meet its bitter end!"Lightning struck the ground far in the distance, causing the ominous sound of thunder to echo through the world. Someone's final moments were closing in, but who's they were was still unclear. The power difference between the Kikoho and Bing's attack were fairly small, meaning this upcoming clash could go either way. The Crane Sensei took only a few more moments, before firing her Kikoho. She let out a mighty shout as the diamond of Ki rocketed through the sky with immense force, aiming to smash right into Bing and end him permanently. The Cyborg smirked, raising his intertwined hand a bit higher. He used his thumbs as iron sights, making sure to hit the Kikoho dead center with his attack. He let out a fearsome shout as he fired his own beam. "CRANE'S END!"A large beam of crimson red Ki erupted from his fingertips, shooting through the sky to meet with the Crane specialty. The mixture of white and red shrouded the entire city in a strange pink light as the two energy beams struggled against one another. It seemed the two beams were evenly matched, causing the two of them to lock into a stalemate. The two beams exploded upon each other in the sky, showering the battlefield in sparks of Ki. Despite the fact that she had used the Kikoho already, she had more of the taboo energy left in her hands! The Cyborg was primed and ready to fire more shots however, meaning this would become an all-out firefight, rather than a single clash. The Crane fired her second Kikoho, which was matched by a second beam of deep red energy. They smashed into one another as before, though this time their impact caused them to explode much quicker than the previous set. Yet another Kikoho was released from Reikiko's diamond-shaped stance, causing Bing to prime his own third attack. The Crane's End shot through the sky again, and the two attacks collided. The Crane's attack was seemingly pushed back just a bit, before the two beams exploded once again. By this point, both warriors were already quite winded. If this kept up much longer, Bing would need to use some type of healing to keep himself afloat for the battle with Kaula. As the final Kikoho barreled through the sky, the Solar Cyborg's eyes narrowed. He could feel it; this battle was ending right now. "HRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"The Cyborg's fourth beam of death fired from his fingertips, colliding with the Crane's Kikoho one last time. They struggled, but Bing's attack seemed to have the upper hand. Though it should have exploded by this point, the two attacks persisted. The crimson beam forced its way forwards, pushing the Kikoho back as it advanced. With a shout of ferocity, the Cyborg poured more power into this final beam, causing it to rip right through the Kikoho! The energy of Reikiko's technique slowly dissipated, leaving the beam of crimson death free to fly forwards. If Reikiko stayed in the sky long enough, the Crane's End would pierce right through her stomach, lowering her time on this world by a fair amount. If she had already fallen to the ground, however, the beam would simply travel upwards, before fizzling out in the atmosphere.
