[THREAD PL: 29,598] [HEAVY WEIGHTS: ON] [CURRENT PL: 7400]
Finally. Finally the wounds have healed. And now it was time to continue her journey to figure out strength.
Raima had been out of commission for a while, because her shoulders were shattered when she fought against that Arcosian known as Lord Retsu. Her blood was just boiling and her spine shivering from the excitement caused by her memory of the fight alone. It was one hell of a fight, but the fact that he shattered her shoulders was a horrible experience for her, as she had to let herself rest. Time passed, and thanks to her saiyan biology, she was able to recuperate from her broken shoulders in quick time.
However, in the down time from not being able to use her normal arms, Raima had gotten herself a special trinket while exploring a human city. This trinket was called a power inhibitor, which locks down a portion of the user's strength in exchange for what would feel like a drastic boost to her power gaining. She was currently wearing it, and holy hell did it feel like she needed to do exert more effort in order to perform actions that were very easy to perform without it on. She bought the golden anklet and was now wearing it around her right ankle, and flew once more around this large planet known as Earth.
Her next destination was the middle of the Fortune Teller's desert, because she heard of something in this region of the world being a host to one of the strongest people in the world. Although that information came from someone who apparently lived in a cardboard box in the middle of an alley, the saiyan woman had decided to put some faith into his words as the inhabitants of this world really did hold the strongest people in the world.
However, she was starting to regret her decision as she would realize after walking for a couple hours into this desert, she would realize something.
"THIS PLACE IS TOO DAMN HOT~!" Raima would shout, letting out a heated exhale as she forgot to pack enough water. The sun was beating down on her, as she was wearing her light and loose looking clothing. Even her scar which encompassing the skin around her left eye was itching due to the sweat that was running down her face. She was half tempted to take off of anklet in order to fly towards the nearest watering hole, when lo and behold she saw an Oasis. Her eyes grew wide with happiness as she broke into a sprint for the large oasis surrounded by lush grass and a couple palm trees.
She hopped into the water and started swimming in it, having fun in the refreshing water. After swimming for a bit, she realized something odd. She was not getting any cooler. The saiyan woman turned her gaze downward and noticed the sad truth, which was that she was swimming in sand. As she would pull herself out of the sand, she cursed the damned hallucinations affecting her mind. With that little sad moment over, she continued her venture in the desert, hoping to find this supposedly strong person that could become her goal.

Powerlevel Without weights:34,027 Powerlevel With Medium weights:17,014
Plato walked through the massive desert, it was much like his home, a memory that brought pain and happiness. He didn't really have a clue why he was out here but, the place was nice and relaxing. The heat was somewhat unbearable though konats had heat most likely this during the day though it was quite cold at night. He walked through the Deseret as he spotted something in the distance, a person, a corpse or something worse. He walked towards the person starching his chin "Hey you alright..." He looked at her as she swam. He couldn't help hold his hands over his mouth. He wanted to laugh but that would be rude. However, he could not hold back the laugh. "Bah!!!!!!" He began to laugh at the woman as she swam in the sand "what the hell are you even doing." He said before calming himself down after laughing for a good 30 seconds.
He coughed looking at her "You must be having a dream need something i got food and water if you need it." he shaked his head looking at the saiyan. "I hope your not crazy..." He said looking around "Probley need to find a place for you to relax your gonna dry up out here like a baby weed." He looked at the saiyan trying to get a good idea who she was.

After snapping back to reality, Raima would hear something off in the distance. Turning her head, she would notice a man with long white hair walking over to her, having a boisterously loud laughter ringing through the air. Narrowing her eyes, she would half regret making herself look like a fool to some degree, as this weirdo now thinks that she is the weird one. He is not entirely wrong about that however, but it is not like Raima belonged in a loony bin or anything like that.
Raima would cross her arms and tap her foot impatiently, waiting for the man to stop acting like rude baffoon. She was even blushing a tiny bit because of how much he was getting a rile out of Raima having some sort of delusion in the middle of the desert. Once he quieted down, she would be glaring some daggers into him as this was extremely rude of him to laugh and not even apologize for his behavior.
Her mood lightened, however, once he started speaking about giving her food or water. She instinctively licked her lips at the mention of food, saying almost instantly, "Gimme. I am staaaarving and thiiiirsty, and I'd reeeeeally appreciate it soooo damn much!" After saying this, he would remark on how he hoped that she was not insane, which made her narrow her eyes once more and say to him, "You're not good at this socializing thing, are ya? Cause that's something that could make someone angry, after saying it in the same tone as you."
After saying this, he would continue to speak about finding a place to relax, to which she shook her head and stated with a straightforward bluntness, "Nah, that'll take too much time. Jus' gimme the food and water right now, and I'll be perfectly okay!"

He looked at her smiling as she narrowed his eyes at him, "I mean well you were the one swimming in the sand, usually on konats we would say those type of people were crazy probley cause i'm use to the heat. Despite the pale shade of skin i have konatstian actually don't burn easy it is a wonderful thing." He looked around as he began to pace forward as he handed her some of the food and water he had on him. It was just bread and a bottle of water but it was better then nothing. He smiled as he sat down next to a rock taking out his own bread and water.
He opened the water bottle as he began to drink down the water "Got this at a earth market called...uh think it was ball mart, i can't remember." he shaked his head as he almost spat out his water thinking about it. "The front of the store there was this large man walking through the store i was behind him the whole way, it was as if he was a pyshic." He said drinking down some more water as he looked at her. "Every time i'd go to a new section of the store he would block my path and i'd have to follow him." He said "I probley should of just gone back but the one time i did he was there as well." He said as he sighed "took me two hours to get all the stuff i needed then i gave my friend the stuff to bring to my ship." He said finally finishing his story.
He placed his head against the rock "It seems to me your holding back well being forced too." he pointed to the braces on her legs "What do those do, i mean i wear weights probley should take them off since it was so hot." He said with a little laughter. He was wearing a full black tux with weights and it didn't look like he was breaking a sweat, He was just making light of that of her perdermient. "So were do you come from here somewhere else i come from konats the name is Plato. Use to be its guardian before some shenanigans went down and now i'm here, went from a high born to a low born what would you know." He said eating some of the breed. "So whats your deal i'll give more of mine but want an introduction to yours." He said as he finished eating the breed.

"Me acting crazy because of Desert heat is normal, as it happens to lots of people apparently... But don't insult me as a person about this," Raima would quickly say as the guy would rummage around his belongings for the food. The instant the man would pull out his bread and water, Raima would quickly snatch them from him and begin her little mini-feast.
She stuffed as much of the bread as she could, chewing and swallowing the wheat-based foot down her gullet. This went well with the first two slices, but the following two slices was what messed her up. She didn't chew up the next two pieces of bread too well, and so they were stuck in her throat, blocking off her own airway. Eyes widening, she moved her hand to her neck in order to try and push it down to no avail. However, she had an idea, as she opened the water bottle and poured half the bottle into her mouth, doing her best to swallow it.
Although it took a couple of seconds, the water was able to dissolve the bread stuck in her throat enough to go down the rest of her esophagus and into her stomach. Freeing up her windpipes, Raima took a couple deep breaths, thanking everything that she was now hydrated, well fed, AND having good oxygen to breathe. She would return her attention to the man in front of her, who would be finishing up his very pointless story about shopping behind a fat person, not really paying attention to the story in the first place.
And then the man would start talking about her having some sort of limiter placed on her, in which she was not able to use her full power. Taking another swig of good H2O, Raima would pipe up and start talking herself, "Nah, don't take yours off unless you're a wimp. I mean, this one anklet somehow being able to make me use more effort, thus makin' me stronger. I say hell to the yeah."
The man would speak up once more, inquiring of where Raima came from and then his speech devolved into a huge bit of blather that was hard to understand. She heard him say that his name was Plato, and that he was a guardian... correction, EX-guardian of a place called Konats, which was only somewhat familiar to the saiyan woman. After musing at how he was high class and now he became commoner class, he would say that he'd give her some food if she made an introduction herself.
Smirking, she would say to him, "I woulda done that even if you didn't tell me to. Anywho, the name is Raima, and I am saiyan that is originally from Planet Vegeta... Although I am unsure about where I was born because of my shitty father, I have lived on that planet my entire life, even after I killed my piss poor excuse of a father. I came to Earth, curious as to why everyone on this planet was strong enough to halt the Solar Saiyan Empire's conquest of this planet, and with the amount of people I have already met... Well, they already proved their strength to me a hundre-, no... thousand fold..."
After finishing her little spiel, she would take another water bottle from him and a couple more slices of bread as well. She held her side of the bargain, and was grinning cheekily towards Plato in a friendly, yet mischievous way.

He nodded as he listened to her story about why she was on earth. She was from Planet vegeta, something which brought good and bad memories. Memories of Shembha and Negi were good though his memories and memories of that arrogant ass wipe Carva were not good. She had came to see the strength of the earthlings and it seemed she ran into someone that had bested her in combat. It was not such a surprise to him not that she was weak but he meet many people who were more powerful then she was. "Yah when i came here i meet someone that who has the power beyond something i even thought was possible." He said looking at her. "It is nice to meet you Raima." He said smiling as he got more bread chewing on it.
He smiled seeing how she tore through his food as looked he out of food. "Oh well...guess were out of that." he said with a smile "Well guess i'll go get that back at my ship once i'm done here." He said as he finished eating the piece of bread. "Want to come along my ship is not that far." He said with a sigh, he wanted to walk around but he was out of food. "Guardian was actually now what i was though i don't really want to talk about that and why i am not anyhow." He said "Time to talk about something happy, any dreams and aspiration mine is to return to konats though based on the state i left him that won't be for a long, long time." He said with a sigh as he stood up waiting for her to follow him to his ship. "We can have an actually dinner and talk when we get there." He said as he began to walk hoping she would follow him back to his ship so they can have an actually conversation while not dieing in the heat.

"Yeah, nice to meet you to ya pale-lato," Raima said, making a half-assed attempt as a pun-like nickname. Plato seemed like a nice enough guy, although he had a couple issues in trying to interact with others in a social sense. Although she felt a little bad for going through all of this guy's bread, it was not like she was completely guilt ridden because of that choice. He offered food, and Raima pounced on the chance to completely devour the food. Plain and simple.
Then the realization that they ran out of food came upon them, to which the man would offer to go back to his ship to get more. Raima was dusting the sand off of her loose pants as he offered to allow Raima to follow him back to his ship, and she already knew her answer to that little question. Her little journey for finding that strong person in this desert can wait, as making sure she herself is fully sustained is of a much bigger concern to the saiyan woman.
Then he started speaking about how he was a guardian, but did not really want to talk about it at the moment. Quickly responding, Raima would say with a sly, "Pssssh, I don't even know you at all yet. So why should I care about you being a guardian or whatever, as you're just a stranger to me right now."
As they started walking, he would mention that the two of them could have dinner together, which made Raima chuckle. She would ask the man, "Wait, are you hitting on me?"

He turned looking at her as he walked, "I am not hitting on you what does that even me..." He said somewhat confused. He never been nor had learned about a relationship. He had no idea what she had meant as he walked towards his ship. Demetrius waited outside looking at plato and his guest. "I brought someone to eat with us, maybe train later." Plato said as he walked inside he bowing his head. He let Raima inside as they headed into the ship. The ship was not too big, big enough for three people, it had a living area with 2 bedrooms and some sort of chamber at the end of the hallway. The room had a huge library thousand apon thousand of books resting in the area with a table with only 2 chairs waiting for them while Demetrius pulled out a third so he can sit. Cups of water were already sitting on the table with some cooked Oyster already on the table along with a bowl of pasta. The oyster were well cooked though not anything that would make her think they were expert cooks. The pasta had a thin meat sauce and meatballs were placed on the side to put into the pasta at ones choice.
Plato nodded to Demetrius who brought out some more food "We been trying to enjoy earth cultured food, though on konats we mostly just have greens and meat, not a large variety of food." He said as Demetrius brought out a salad and then some mini chicken pot pies to finsh off everything that had on them at the moment. "I know it is not much but enjoy." He said as he got himself some of each thing though most of what he had was the pasta and Salad. He began to eat slowly wrapping his fork around the pasta before taking in the pasta and eating it with caution. He didn't want to seem as a rude savage from another world, he was trying to fit in at the moment. Though normally he would act this way anyway so he must be doing a great job.

"You don't know what tha-... You know what, never mind," Raima would begin, but shut herself in order to not complicate anything further. It did not seem like this man had any lecherous intent in his actions and, if anything, was completely oblivious to the very notion of what he was doing with the two of them. With a sigh of semi-relief that there were no ulterior motives in this man, she would continue moving alongside him.
Eventually the two of them would reach the ship, and the man would invite her on. Still being somewhat wary of this, the saiyan woman would cautiously hop onto the decently sized space ship, noticing the other person on board. Thankfully this other person was of no concern, as his power level was so weak right now. And if that Plato tried anything, she had a special surprise in stock for him.
She was lead to the dining area, as she fully ignored the giant piles of books scattered on shelves in a room and the other blatantly boring rooms. She was more than ready to eat her body weight's fill, and the first thing her eyes laid on were the meat balls. Finally some meat! Once Plato sat down and started, Raima instantly took the bowl of meatballs and popped each one into her mouth one at a time. This time making sure to chew it thoroughly and savor the taste of the meat, finding the meat to be a little better than what she expected, but only by a little.
The saiyan woman turned her gaze to Plato, who appeared to be eating slowly and with utensils. Curious as to why he was trying to be looking sophisticated, she had to ask, "Yo Play-dough... You do not need to act properly mannered around me. Just be yourself and shit. By the way, what were you saying about this training, cause that got me interested."

Plato face palmed as she made another pun with his name as he stared at her "That pun is Raimaning with my brain." He said, it was a bad joke that made no sense but he didn't care as he nodded "well on konats this is how i acted, but i guess your right i'm being a little uptight." he said as he grabbed more of the small chicken pot pies throwing them into his mouth. "Oh yes the training, i need someone to train with and i happen to have a gravity chamber." He said looking around "It can modifiedy gravity up to 50 times normal earth gravity." He finished eating before cleaning slowly cleaning the table. "You seem pretty strong yourself, training on my own won't help me get any stronger but if i train with someone close to my strength then my strength will increase." He said puffing up his chest.
He looked at her before looking at Demetrius, "It is somewhat late you can sleep here for the night don't worry me and Demetrius sleep in the living room and you can have the bed, rather think you don't want to sleep with any of us that would be weried." He said with some embarrassed. He finishing cleaning up the dinner "You want to eat anything else." He said as he went back into the room "We also got ice cream and pie which we wanted to try for a while but we have not but i'd assume we want some, it is vanilla and apple." he said as he brought some pie and ice cream putting it in the middle of the table as he scooped out for himself and Demetrius before putting a hot slab of pie next to the ice cream looking at her if she wanted any.

She was still popping meatballs into her mouth when Plato made that god awful pun about her name, causing her to have a meaty spit-take as she would quite literally burst out and holler with laughter. She bent over as she slapped her knee in reaction to the bad joke, and said out loud, "There you go you pale bastard. Now you're learning how to have fun and relax!"
Raima would remain silent, however, in order to listen to listen to Plato's proposal about the training in that gravity chamber. This was really interesting to be perfectly honest, as the experience from training in an enhanced gravity zone will completely beneficial to the saiyan woman. Plus, there was also the benefit of learning how this Plato actually fights people, as he had claimed that he was guardian of a planet. There must be a reason that he was able to rule and defend a planet, and a good spar would be able to determine that.
Then this man just had to suggest that she sleep on the ship, and before she heard the rest of the sentence, Raima legitimately asked, "Okay, seriously. I'm getting so many mixed messages from you. You trying to pick me up or not!?" Then she heard the rest of the sentence, and put her hands on her hips and said with complete nonchalance, "You think I give a crap about sleeping next to someone? I'd walk through the middle of town in the buff if it weren't for the fact people would throw a frickin' fit all about it. Plus that damn bed looks like it can fit four people, would be a damn shame if you can't use your own bed and all."
Plato would start packing up the regular food and bring out dessert, to which Raima would shake her head and disapproval and say, "I don't need to eat fatty food before training. Makes me feel off balance and unable to give it my all in my spars. Just let me know when you are ready to start the training and all."

Plato nodded as she spoke looking at her with some embarrassment. He may of been dense but he was not dense enough to understand she basically just invited him into bed (Granted it was just to sleep and nothing more) But He almost dropped the food as she spoke before putting it down on the table. He gripped the table before calming himself looking at her "No you can just sleep in it i don't mind usually when i'm in space i am sleeping on the coach or at the piolet seat anyway." he said half heartily, He was trying to hide his Embarrassment. He pulled up his cloak to cover his face as he took himself some pie and ice cream before taking it back into the kitchen "Suit yourself." he said as he put the food away. "Well as for the training we can wait till the morning it is late, that why i offered you my bed." He said from the kitchen. He wipped the sweat of his brow before calming himself down as he walked back into the room.
He stared at the woman as he walked back out as he pointed towards the room "That is my room you can sleep there i will sleep here i rather not sleep with other people." He strached the back of his head as he sat back on the coach. He sighed closing his eyes of exhausting. He stared up at the roof as she was finshing her food. "But, i really don't want to sleep with another person cause it is really weried." He strached the back of his head. "When i was a kid if you had another kid in your cell you'd fight to the death." He looked up his eyes turning dark with rage as he spoke.
"When i lived on konats, it was a time where evil men ruled the world, having there iron fist on everything, When they telported our planet to the North Galaxy they took one hundred children and tortured us and...other things." He didn't make an implication what, he didn't want to talk about the beast that was deep inside him at the moment, the more he thought about as the White star got closer, he may of lost control. He was unstable, losing his people faith, failing to protect them from that bastard tree. He put his hand on his face as he sighed "Sorry i should not talk about my past i don't think you want to know..I just think about these things sometimes..." He wiped his face looking up again. "I was weak..I never could of protected my people that is why i am here, i need to train and that why i need you, because your seem like a fighter, if i can train with someone near my level i can improve, as can my training partner." He flipped off his back sitting on the coach as his fist tightened before he let out a long drawn out yawn. "Guess i better get some sleep." He muttured flopping onto the coach as he closed his eyes. He was still awake at the moment though he was getting ready to go to dream land.

Raima just chuckled as Plato blurted out his answer to the sleeping in the same scenario, as she knew that he would either pounce on the chance or be completely shy about the entire ordeal. It was the latter as he just straight up told Raima that she could take the bed all for herself, which Raima had to respect out of him because he was not looking for action in the perverted sense. She could barely keep herself from bursting into full out laughter as he covered his face while putting the desserts he pulled out away. While doing this, he said his plan for the training, which were the cause for Raima's sudden jaw drop as she said to him, "That's not what you promised!"
The pale guy walked over to where he called his room, and explained further upon why he would rather not sleep in the same room as someone else. Her standing posture stiffened as the guy mentioned the fact that children had to fight to the death if they shared the same cell, which was kind of shocking for her. Not enough to make a big scene, as she was put through hell due to her father's trials by fire as he assaulted her as a masked man for such a long time.
She would remain silent as Plato would continue to talk about his and his planet's cruel overlords, to which he would abruptly stop as he seemed to start feeling actual pain from his memories. After the suggestion that they should both go to sleep, Raima would remain silent for a short while, before blurting out, "Fine... Fine! I'll go to friggin' sleep!"
She would enter the designated room and jump on top of the mattress, and splay herself outward on the bed for a long long while. Raima would stare at the ceiling, feeling her muscles practically ache out from inactivity after gorging herself on a lot of meat, without being able to work off the food she ate nor able to get rid of this excess energy from Plato teasing her with the idea of using a gravity chamber.
Unable to contain herself, she used her flight ki in order to hover on the ground without touching it, just so she would not disturb the sleeping pale man. Slowly she hovered out of Plato's room, and down the hallway into the room that had the gravity chamber was, opening the room up and closing it as quietly as possible. Still hovering in the room, she made her way to the console of the gravity chamber, and noticed that it's default function was on the x50 gravity section. Smiling to herself, she pressed the activation to the room and found herself pressed against the floor with fifty times the planet's gravity.
Feeling her body nearly getting crushed, she pulled herself up the console to turn off the gravity, barely being able to pull herself up to do so in the first place. She was currently resting on the ground, ready to start over once the pressure of a room too heavy wore off of her, now that she sees that gravity training requires baby steps, not giant leaps of gravitational increases.

Plato sat on the Coach Asleep as Raima passed by opening one of his eyes to see her past. He waited her to go inside the room, so she could not here him as he let out a sigh of pain gripping his chest. He didn't want to be seem as weak though he could not hide the pain for much longer. He slammed his elbow down in the coach with complete pain causing it to shake his pale eyes turned red before he calmed himself laying in the bed stareing up at the roof. His Creature seem to be getting more wild and forcing its powers on him more often. He didn't want to think about it, he summoned his monster a couple times and had gained a small sec of control though no where near enough to allow him to use the beast for combat unless he was going to die. He tightened the grip on his shirt as he could here the gravity chamber turn on before quickly turning off. He made a long sigh before laying his head back down to pretend he was sleeping when she passed. He didn't make any noise but once she passed he would grip his chest trying to hold back the pain before pressing his pillow into the face trying to muffle his cries.
After about 5 minutes of this he would settle down as he began to drift into sleep. What would the training be like? He tried to focus on other things rather then his monster, though it always came back to that. Could he control it, would the monster unleash itself when the star passed over? This made him hunger as he sleep, always dreaming wondering what would happen in the coming days. If the pain was this bad and there was a week and a half before the star what would it be like tomorrow. He didn't want to know he just wanted to rest.
Gonna Exit here think this is a good spot for powerlevel with weights bonus
