It was a peaceful day in the Bamboo Forest. The sound of birds could be heard, singing their beautiful song for any who would listen. Crickets chirped, and a light breeze made the Bamboo stalks sway gently. A perfect day for a man to go fishing.
Enter one Sanguinis, The Ace of Diamonds. Recently, he'd defeated the evil Lord who'd once plagued him. The warrior had accomplished his primary goal, and now it was time to relax a bit, seeing as how there were no invading Saiyans or any aliens for that matter.
As Sangu stepped through the tall bamboo, he thought to himself. Glad that's over with. Though I can't remember the battle, nor how it ended...I beat him. But why was I so tired? Why did I pass out so quickly? That's never happened before, and I'd love to investigate further but going into the city? Naaaah. Doesn't seem like a good idea.
It was no big suprise that Sangu didn't trust city doctors. The cities of Cube's home planet were huge and full of thieves and murderers. The red haired warrior had found this to be true first hand, having had his first set of weights stolen as well as his first house. This was why the man had remained homeless for so long. But now, things were peaceful. Too peaceful. Eerily quiet.
He walked through the wilderness, wearing a pair of wohis wooden sandals, black training pants, and his weighted vest, his wild red hair tied up in a ponytail. In one hand, he carried a fishing pole, bent slightly as the hook held onto one of the rings, and in the other hand he carried a tackle box.
The man came upon a clearing in the forest with a large pond, small ripples appearing from time to time in the water. Sangu didn't fish for sport, oh no. He fished because he needed food, like any man. Just like he picked his own herbs and baked his own bread. The self sufficient warrior thought. I suppose it's time to catch tonight's dinner. Ahhhh...so peaceful. As he kicked his sandals off, sitting down on the water's edge and dipping his feet in the water.
Sanguinis sighed as the cool water soothed his feet, and he opened his Tackle box. The box contained a can of worms, night crawlers to be exact. They weren't store bought, they were caught. He would bait the hook, careful not to prick his fingers.
Swinging the rod backwards, he'd whip it forward and throw his line out into the water. He pulled a Y shaped piece of wood from the box and impaled the soft dirt with it, then propped his pool up on it. The ki master closed his eyes and laid back, his ki sense activated...he'd sense the faint ki of the fish, and wait...

Hunter sat at the bottom of the pond, crossing his arms. The red haired Bio-Android had went and grown himself a set of gills with his shapeshifting, allowing him to breath underwater. With no fear of drowning, he had dozed off. With his thick hide, there was little that could harm him, even down here. His naturally high Ki gave off an aura of power that kept most smart creatures away from him. And even the ones that weren't smart simply couldn't bite through his thick skin. He couldn't even feel it.
It wasn't until he heard something splash down in the water above him that he was stirred from his slumber. Opening his eyes -- now protected by a layer of mucus -- he looked up and saw the hook on the bobber, with the worm writhing about, desperate for air. It'd die, at this rate. Not that Hunter cared. Leaning back, the Bio-man wondered what he should do. Clearly it was a fisherman. A regular human, it seemed. Most Ki warriors hunted with their fists, and Hunter couldn't sense Ki. He had no idea just how outclassed he was.
With that in mind, Hunter decided it'd be a bad idea for whomever it was above him to find out he was here. He preferred to stay in hiding. Secret, away from the world. He saw no reason to go around destroying and pillaging. It was simply counter productive. He ate to survive, not to grow. No, his power would grow as he got older. It was as simple as that. The Bioman brought his right arm to his side, sticking the elbow out. The arm grew grey, and larger. A pillar formed where his elbow had been, and it extended outwards.
Throwing the punch towards the bobber, the pillar that had extended out of his elbow forced itself down again, causing a strong force that would cause a miniature explosion, sending the bobber, hook, and bait flying out of the water, and back onto the beach. Hunter hoped that this little display of his strength would cause this would-be fisherman to chose another spot to get his meal.

Today’s a very nice day cado thought to himself as he woke up from his sleep and stepped out from his makeshift Shelter along the forest edge. He had been living here ever since his space pod crash landed not far from here. He had been saving every bit of zeni he could earn for a place to live. He hoped that soon he would be able to have enough to finally get a decent roof over his head.
Cado looked out across the fields as the sun made its way across the sky. He figured he would head out into the forest for some food. He had found some fruit trees mixes into the bamboo forest that produced a great taste and was rather filling. So with a soft push of his energy downward, he floated off into the air over the forest ,watching the area down below him.
Soon enough cado ducked down into the forest where a tree,You could tell wasn’t bamboo, had mixed it’s self amongst the forest. So he grabbed a few apples one in his left hand, and two in his right hand. This time he stayed on the forest floor, walking through the sprouts of bamboo towards the sound of the water. He could hear the frogs croaking and fish jumping every few minutes. So he ate while making his was there.
One there he bend down at the pond edge and used his hand as a cup and drank a bit of the water. It was nice and cool, very refreshing. Looking up from the pond after his drink he glanced across the pond. There was a man, with long red hair. He thought to himself, he looked and his energy felt rather familiar , like he had seen him somewhere before. So cado stood completely up and started to walk his way around the pond, eating his fruit along the way.

Sangu sat there quietly, eyes focused on the still waters of the pond now. His Ki Sense had picked up a slightly larger ki, which had made his large, hunter green eyes widen with interest. Leaning forward, he rested his elbows on his knees and narrowed his eyes on the bobbing as it dipped slightly. Hrmf. Big fish in the pond today, I guess. No problem for me, I'm really hungry!
Watching. Waiting. Patience was a virtue when one went fishing, and it helped to remain silent. He'd also sensed Cado heading in the direction of the pond, but as his stomach growled and he salivated over what would obviously be a huge catch, he paid the man no attention. Not initially, anyway. He was a confident fighter, and he knew that he could handle any threat.
Sangu cursed as the small explosion rocked the water, sending his supplies flying halfway across the forest. The consequent splash created from the explosion had also managed to cover the crimson warrior with cool water. In any other situation, he'd be relaxed, but he was slightly startled by this recent development. "What the hell kinda fish tries to blow someone up?!"
As he looked around, he wasn't so angry as he saw the scattered fish outside of the water. The warrior blinked, his eyes once again going wide as a huge grin spread across his face. "Well now, this is definitely more than enough for what I need! Look at all these fi-" his gaze fell on Cado, and he tilted his head.
The hybrid without a tail. The one who looked very much like a Saiyan, yet Sangu couldn't be too sure. He offered a nod to the man, noting that he had more fish than he could eat himself. "Hi there...umm...don't tell me, I remember..." He thought back to their meeting, in the Frozen wastelands. There was an Arcosian there, but Sangu had wrote the Arcosian off at the time. His eyes lit up. "Oh yeah! Cado, I remember you!"
He moved his hand to indicate the large number of fish on the area. "I know you're hungry, right?! Help me gather these fish so we can cook them up, I have some rice in my Tackle box as well!"
The loud speech probably irritated Hunter slightly, as he was supposed to be resting.

Rafar was happily sleeping off his battle with Collan, when he suddenly awoke. Groggily, he looked around his meager campsite, containing what little supplies remained after his ill-fated trip to Earth. It wasn't much but it was home, at least for now. He also noticed a plume of water slowly receding down the tree line. "Umm, what the hell was that? Better go check it out, don't want a ki user knowing where I sleep." He would then run off into the ocean of trees.
Rafar had finally located where he believed the water had come from. To be fair, it wasn't exactly hard to find. The surrounding area was covered with dead and dying fish, and he had noticed several muted voices coming from up ahead. Strolling into the clearing, he noticed two people, a red-haired human and what appeared to be an Sayian hybrid wearing orange gi. They appeared to have known each other prior to their encounter, and the hybrid's name was apparently "Cado". Rafar would linger at the edge of the tree line, deciding to wait and survey the situation before he entered it. Caution appeared to be the best policy on this planet, at least until he grew strong enough to defend himself.

[Uhh... you guys are blowing the explosion out of proportion. It was only strong enough to move the bobber, not rock a forest or wake someone up.]

Cado continued to make his way around the lake. Soon enough he would recognize who the man was on the other side. It was sanguine. He remembered from his exploration in the northern part of the planet when he first arrived on earth.
Looking around at all fish Sangu had , cado started to help pick them up. “ how did this happen?” cado would ask, while grabbing a few of them up. “by the way, how have you been lately?”

He still had no idea what caused the small explosion which sent a few fish to fly forth from the water. If the human wasn't a sporting man, he could have used his own power to get the same effect, but Sanguinis believed that such a vulgar display of power would be unnecessary. Power should only be used for the good of the planet, not to kill fish, especially when you could simply fish. But still, his peaceful moment had been ruined by something. Or was it someone? As Cado asked him the question, he'd look at the young hybrid with a sigh, running his fingers through his bright red hair. "Well, I'd come out here to relax, you know. But as I was fishing, all of a sudden my pole, my bobber...everything went flying, which really harshed my mellow, ya know?" His hunter green eyes would once again focus on the lake, and he'd shake his head. He knew good and we'll that fish didn't cause explosions, unless of course they were fish with explosions strapped to their sides. He narrowed his eyes and tried once again to sense, finding the power once again, just sitting there. Dormant. Docile. Something just isn't right. What fish throws a man's pole back at him?
As his senses were keen, especially his ki sense, he felt yet another person's ki. It was weaker than his, but he could tell it was there just by his Mastery of the technique. The warrior called out. "You can come out! I mean noone any harm!"

Hunter closed his eyes again, now returning to his rest, with the annoyance dealt with. Several fish had flown out of the water too, so he figured that'd pacify whatever human was up there. There was really no reason for him to get involved with human affairs. That was, until, he heard several muffeled voices through the water. Annoyance crossed his features, and he sighed. Great, he'd gone and attracted more of the annoying bastards. Then he heard a voice call out to him, saying that they meant no harm. And now they knew he was here. Fucking wonderful.
Sitting up, Hunter debated if he should show himself or not. After all, the Bio-androids terrifying apperance might very well cause him to be attacked. Then again, he did say he 'meant no harm'. Perhaps, maybe, he should give the human a chance. Besides, he could regenerate. There was very little capable of killing him before he was able to get away. With his mind made up, Hunter pushed himself off the ground, heading up towards the surface of the water.
First, his bright orange hair broke the surface, then his eyes, and his nose. But aside from that, no more would reveal itself. He simply stared at the group, not saying a word.

(Ok have fun)
Rafar was getting bored with watching what seemed to be a warrior's reunion, until he heard Sangu's statement, and assumed it applied to him, since he had no idea about ARES's presence. Calling out towards, Sangu,"Ok, fine I'm coming out." Rafar stepped out from beneath the dark pines, and only then realized that Sangu had been talking to the new figure that had risen from the lake. "Ummm, guess you weren't talking to me." He would walk closer to Sangu, noting the Sangu and ARES's strange appearances. "What's with the the fish carpet, gonna smell in a couple days." He would look pointedly around at the piles of dead fish.
Walking around the pond towards the pair, he would note the clearing's serene and beautiful aesthetic, feeling more relaxed by just being there. He wondered if this would be a good place for his eventual house, if he bought one. It was certainly sheltered enough, with miles of forest extending in every direction
Arriving at a spot about 5 feet to Sangu's right, Rafar would sit down on the spiringy, soft grass. Calling out towards ARES, he would ask, "Why do you have gills, looks stupid if you ask me." Rafar said this, not caring that much if ARES took offense, considering that he had grown considerably stronger in the past couple of weeks. He doubted the figure could seriously hurt him now.
