Thread Power Level 12,038 Heavy Weights Active! Restrained Power Level 3,010
A breeze blew over Mt. Pazou as yells resounded over the rocky plains of the mountain. Rafar had been training hard for the upcoming tournament, he was determined not to make a complete fool of himself in front of all the spectators that were almost guaranteed to attend. Many Earthling-based masters could possibly attend, looking for prospective students, and although Rafar hated to admit it, he needed their guidance if he wished to advance further in his training. His latest combo turned a large rock pillar into small pieces of rubble, the crashing sound echoing for miles around. He winced, that would probably attract some unwanted attention, as fun as it could be. Setting his scouter to scan the area for 5 minutes just as a precaution, he returned to his training, firing a string of ki blasts into the rocky turf.
Sorry about the lackluster opener, I suck at starting threads Shemha

(Current PL 21,867 - Heavy Weights on)
Up until today Shemha had yet to explore this region. The name, Mt. Pazou,was one she often heard mentioned about the cities. The landmark a well known one and due to its enormous height, visible from miles away. Her interest in the region purely informational, her only goal was to explore it and try to memorize it's layout for any future use that might provide. As such a unique section of the world, in structure and name, she found it a point to be cataloged and remembered. The last thing she expected was to find another out alone in this area of the world, much like when she came across the Arcosian, Polara, deep in the forest.
With his senses extended, Rafar would likely sense her approach far before she arrived. The echoes of crumbling rock was what drew her initially, the sound bouncing off the mountain side and up into the air. Head cocked curiously to the side, she wondered what might have caused the noise. It wasn't loud enough to be an avalanche or mudslide and yet it sounded like the tumbling of rocks over one another. Naturally Ki sensing ability employed, she took note of the above average signature along the mountainside. Pinpointing it, she honestly wasn't sure if the individual was the source of the sound considering how it echoed through the air around her, but she figured it worthy of investigation regardless.
Power level suppressed by her weights, she still stood out to anyone with the ability to read signatures. Considering his relatively lower strength when directly compared to hers, she felt no reason to try and conceal her approach. She meant no harm and hopefully, neither would whomever it was she had come across. As she approached, slowly descending towards him she let her arms hang at her sides, a non threatening stance.
”Hello...was that recent ruckus your doing?” A small smile on her face, the Majin learning to be a bit more friendly towards those she met.

Rafar turned, surprised at the high reading his scouter had notified him of, only to become even more surprised as he saw a reddish-pink Majin approach from above. He had only seen one Majin during his tenure on Earth, and he hadn’t had much time to examine the alien before it had scampered off. For all its big talk, Tarragon had not been inclined to engage him and Retsu.
He dusted off his hands as the Majin continued to descend towards the rocky Earth, his expression one of curiosity. When she asked about the recent explosion, he would nod and say, “Yes it was me, I guess I went a little overboard with the ki training.” He crossed his arms, slightly annoyed with the interruption. He sighed, maybe this Majin could assist him in his training, her power level was superior to his. “Soooooo, what’s your name? I haven’t met many Majins on this world, I believe you’re the third.”

The male looked to be Saiyan by all accounts, the hair and tail such a giveaway for the monkey-like race. As familiar as she was with the race she was also familiar with body language. The way his arms crossed over his broad chest clearly indicated a bit of frustration. With a quick glance to the rubble and the soon to be validation from him, she realized she interrupted some sort of exercise. She noted it, her curiosity often enough lead to this sort of scene so perhaps it the future she would approach with more stealth. Shemha enjoyed investigation, but she hated to be rude. It appeared, the two sometimes worked against each other.
”My name is Shemha, it is a pleasure to meet you.” She responded with a curt bow, head bent down far enough the tentacle that made up her hair nearly touched the ground. When she rose back up she shrugged in response to the rest of his statement. ”My kind aren’t exactly what you call common…I am surprised you have met three as it is.” In her time she only met two, those she passed by or saw in the distance did not exactly count.
Again her focus shifted to the pile of rubble not so far from where she stood. ”Please forgive me if I interrupted something…I didn’t mean to be a bother...” She added, dark eyes back to him as a small smile took place shape on her face once more. The words died off as she didn’t know his name. ”It seems I must ask for your forgiveness again, I did not even request your name in return. Who is it I have the pleasure of meeting?” Arms tucked behind her back as she stood at casual attention.

The Majin finally touched down on the rocky Earth, and actually bowed to the Sayian warrior. Rafar gave one of his expressive grunts, both and surprised and sort of flattered that someone would bow to the likes of him. He really hadn’t expected that much courtesy all the way out here on the outskirts of civilization. “Don’t worry about it I guess, ki blast training gets boring really quickly.” He hesitated for the briefest of seconds and continued. “My name is Rafar.” He didn’t offer anything further, you had to be careful these days when meeting goo people out in the mountains, you could never be sure about their allegiances.
He gave a cursory glance towards the mountain of rubble he created when Shemha mentioned it, wincing as he did so. It seemed he needed somewhere a little less……public to train his ki. It attracted far too much attention for his liking. This ‘Shemha’ was superior to his unweighted state, so he should probably step lightly around the majin, at least for these first few moments. “Can I help you with something? You were interested enough to track me, so there must be something you are interested in.”

Eyes fixed back to the pile of rocks as he spoke, she locked the name away with the signature. Rafar…that name almost sounded familiar to her, but she couldn’t quite place why. When he asked if he could help her with something, she returned her focus to him. It was strange how others always seemed to think she wanted something when the Majin crossed their path. A more sinister creature could think of a rather tasty way any passerby could help, but Shemha was nothing close to the darker versions of her kin.
”No, nothing in particular. I simple caught your signature on the edge of my senses and decided to take a look. You wouldn’t believe what interesting individuals my curiosity has led me to.” Shemha responded before she paused, expression shifting as if she just thought of something. ”Although we could potentially help one another.” Another slight pause to see if he offered an outright rejection of the idea and if he didn’t, she would continue.
”Why not take some time to test one another in combat, friendly competition of course, no lethal force. I am always interested to see how others carry themselves on the battlefield and I promise I can provide more of a challenge than any boulder.” The opportunity was his to take or leave, she wouldn’t press it if he refused. Shemha learned most she knew through observation and pitting herself against another in combat was the most efficient way to lean about their techniques. One never knew when you might come across a unique warrior with an even more unique skill. Diversification was key.

Rafar grimaced as Shemha continued to speak, apparently he was getting a little too suspicious of random beings that appeared out of the wasteland. “What do you mean help each other?” This didn’t sound good, his instincts screamed at him to retreat to a better position. Despite himself however, he continued to listen as she suggested a friendly spar between the two of them. Surprised he would say, “Um, sure sounds good. LETS GO” He sprang at the Majin, attempting to lead off with a heavy kick to the chin and a ki wave sending him towards the sky.

Eyes on Rafar, the pleased smile that her lips curled into indicated she was glad he accepted the offer. No matter who you came across and what their strength was, there was always something to learn from another warrior. Most people Shemha encountered she ended up engaging at some point or another and those she considered her closest friends were individuals she spent at least one training session with.
Rafar was quick to action, a leap taking him on a direct path to the Majin. A solid kick to the chin was her reward for not expecting the frontal assault, especially when she considered the difference in their power. Thanks to that, all the blow managed to do was jerk her head to the side some, neck tightening as he blasted himself into the air.
Head tilted up, she followed him, but had not yet made a move to launch her own attack. ”Allow me to restrain myself so that I can see the true extent of your skill.” With that she began to suppress her own energy levels, pushing them down to right around three thousand. Now on equal footing with the incredibly forward Saiyan, she shifted sideways into a stance. One arm tucked behind the small of her back as her right extended towards him. Palm raised up, her fingers bent as she beckoned him to come back at her.

Rafar's rather cocky manner rapidly vanished as his full power knee strike failed to even faze Shemha, only rocking her head back slightly. Confused, he clicked his scouter, which reported a high power level rapidly falling towards a level near his own. Was everyone on this damn planet stronger than him!? Everyone he met either had to restrain themselves or just flat out obliterated them with their superior strength. There had to be some factor, some path to strength that he was missing.
As the Majin's voice reached his ears,he would shout down to the red figure below "Fine, just do it so we can start!!" Seeing Shemha beckon him towards her, he would oblige, dropping his flight and attempting a gravity-empowered elbow drop right on her head! If this was successful, he would attempt a combo of punches into her stomach and face, ending with a sharp kick to the face. If the elbow drop failed however, he would pick himself up and chuck a bunch of ki blasts at Shemha's maw.

Up in the air above her, she could tell Rafar was impatient. Whether it was her relaxed nature or the some other factor she was unsure, but she would quickly oblige him. Ready to fully engage now that she had surpressed her signature this would be a fair fight. As he came down, she jumped backwards, dodging his descending elbow drop that would have likely driven her head down into the ground. Already moving away, she was ready for him when his launched his volley of Ki blasts in her direction.
A defensive fighter in many cases, she was plenty happy to counter his assault with one of her own. Hands pumping forward, she threw a number of her own blasts out to intercept his. Small detonations filled the air between them, blast after blast colliding with his as a string of bright flashes would hide the from one another for a moment.
Right as the last explosion took place, she rushed forward. Through the smoke of the ki blasts, she rushed, bursting through on the other side for a frontal assault of her own. Leading with her right fist cocked back, she went for a solid right cross aimed across his jaw. If it were to connect, she would follow up with a knee strike that rose for his chest. However, if the initial punched missed she would likely be off balance and over extended. A tough girl, she was fine with the gamble.
Ki blasts used to intercept Rafar’s before Shemha charges in with strikes of her own! 3/3 KP remaining[/blockquote]

Rafar watched as the last piece of burning ki left his hand, spiraling towards it's destined target a couple meters away. It was quickly intercepted by a twin as his foe pumped out a series of blasts to meet his own assault. He was fine with this, his fighting style was best when on the offensive, aided by momentum and powerful bursts of ki. Let her put up a solid defense, it would only play her into his hands. He was so distracted by this thought that he almost didn't notice Shemha bursting through the the dust-made cloud, though not enough to completely catch him by suprise with all his recent battle experience. He threw up a arm, gritting his teeth as Shemha's fist smashed hard into his forearm. Afer deflecting this strike, he would use her confusion to launch a quick jab at her face, followed by a sweeping kick to the legs. If this was successful, he would jump into the air, before coming back down and slamming his foot into the Majin's gut.

The element of surprise was almost enough to catch the male off guard, but it was clear he did not lack battle experience. Quick with his own movements, his arm rose to intercept her initial strike. The block halted her momentum for just a moment and in that moment he was able to capitalize. A solid punch connected with the Majin's face, her head snapping back just long enough for his leg to sweep her feet out from under her. Weightless for an instant she then hit the ground with a thud. No stranger to being knocked flat on her back, she anticipated what was going to come next and his jump into the air only backed up her assumption.
Before his foot could find its way to her belly, Shemha rolls to the side, his boot likely driving into the earth instead of her gut. After a half roll, on her belly in the dirt, the Majin's arms press to the ground in order to launched herself up into the air. Aided by her ability to fly she would lift up parallel to the ground as he body begins to rotate. Performing a full 360 degree spin, she aimed to bring her right foot crashing down into his shoulder and neck, wanting to drop the tough warrior with the kick. If Rafar wanted to brawl in close quarters, she would be happy to engage him.
Shemha gets knocked to the ground, but dodges the stomp and tries to deliver an acrobatic kick of her own.
3/3 KP remaining

His combo had worked almost perfectly, his initial strikes hitting hard and fast, driving Shemha straight to the ground. However, the Majin had managed to dodge his stomp, his foot shattering the hard earth instead hitting her back. "Impressive, but dodging won't help you forever." Before he could react, Shemha had launched a flip kick at his shoulder, knocking him into a nearby rock pillar. Annoyed, Rafar stuck out a hand, launching a bright red beam of energy at his foe.
KP 1/3

Her kick connected perfectly, the Saiyan’s body send straight into the closest rock formation. With enough force behind the blow, his momentum was enough to split rock as it momentarily buried him in the rubble. Saiyan warriors were tough though, a fact Shemha was well aware of and she began to ready herself. The problem was a thick cloud of dust had arrisen from Rafar’s impact with the pillar of rock. Eyes narrowed to try and track his form, a figure isn’t what she saw first.
Instead she saw a point of red light, that intense collection of Ki quickly evolving into a beam as the powerful energy blast obliterated any rock particles set before it. From the cloud the energy erupted and a moment later it slammed into the center of her chest. Detonating on impact, Shemha felt the blast wash over her body and it was her turn to be sent backwards.
The Majin spiraled through the air for a number of yards before she hit the ground only to bounce and hit it again. Blinking as she tried to gather herself, she used her bukujutsu to twist in the air after her third bounce. Her body rotated to bring her legs back down under her, both boots dragging in the dirt as she pressed them down to negate the last of her momentum. Smoke still rose from her chest at the point of impact, dark eyes narrowed after the solid strike.
In retaliation Shemha’s right arm shot up, index finger extended. In similar fashion red Ki launched from her the tip of her finger. Concentrated into a thinner beam than the blast Rafar just hit her with, her destructive lance technique traveled with twice the speed as she attempted to repay him with a blast of her own.
Shemha gets send flying by Rafars attack. Able to get her feet back under her after several bounces, she fires back with her own attack, Destructive Lance!
1/3 KP Remaining
[UP2]Destructive Lance:By concentration energy into the tip of one of her fingers or the tip of the long tentacle stop her head, Shemha is able to release a concentrated beam of Ki that travels double the speed of an average Ki blast. This is a power up version of her Lance technique.

Rafar grinned as his Impact Crasher hit Shemha right in the gut, sending the Majin bouncing across the landscape. He hadn't had much of a chance to use the intermediate form of the Impact Cannon, most of his encounters had required either a little of his power or everything he had. It was strange really, his blast could have once vaporized him like a ream of paper thrown into a reactor, yet now it was nothing compared to the full power of his Final Impact technique. It just goes to show how far he had really come from that weakling who had crawled out of his Spacepod in the Bamboo forest.
Shemha was clearly not out of tricks yet having sent a bright red finger laser to smite him where he stood. Despite his best attempts to dodge out of the way, it hit him head on, sending him through yet another rock pillar. "You know the geologists on this world aren't going to be happy about this right? Just thought you should know!" He picked himself slowly up, and flew towards her with a heavy punch, but swerving at the last second to instead attempt a flying lariat.
