The wild places of Earth were perhaps some of the most lush, picturesque places in the galaxy. They were filled with an abundance of life in all sorts of forms. Some were conventional, others just plain strange. They were wonderful places to behold, though hard to find. A particular forest nestled in the mountains was a rather wondrous place. It was remote, with fair weather, and peaceful. It wasn't quiet, as there were birds chirping and singing, and all sorts of animals making calls and cries. Yet it was peaceful, and bereft of any sound made by man. At least until a rather loud crashing noise filtered for miles around.
The source of that noise had been a tree hitting a mountain-side... With the speed of a car. Hence why the noise was so loud, as the tree hit with enough force to explode upon impact. The reason? It was thrown. By a rather small man wearing a most garish outfit. It was a gi of sorts, with an aqua blue top, orange pants, and a neon green belt tying the thing together. It made one wonder... just what rank was a neon green belt? Oh, and who would consider wearing such an outfit in public. Especially with hot pink boots and mirrored shades, all topped by a rather large mullet... mane... thing. Said man was grinning like a loon as the tree hit the cliff, before moving to target another one as he narrated to himself.
"And the Unbreakable Mister Steel throws another tree-person from Galexerian 7 to the rocks!" The man glanced about as he said this, still wearing that big grin. "And the crowd goes wild cheering for the hero of Earth!" He then raised his arms, re-enacting a crowd with whisper-level volume. "Aaaaaaaahhh.... Aaaaaaahhh.... Mis-ter Steel, Mis-ter Steel, Mis-ter Steel." He then began to focus and channel his power as his eyes locked onto another tree, one with a trunk as wide as a person. If not a bit thicker. And this one seemed juuuust dead enough that it wouldn't be missed if it was chopped down.
He then flew forward at lightning speed towards it, building up power within his fists. And then his fist connected with the trunk, and ripped through it like paper. The trunk of the tree was severed from the stump and floated for a moment, it seemed. Then, he spun around with charged up leg to deliver a mighty kick. Much like with the first tree, this second one slammed against a bit of rock, "Incredible, Mister Steel has managed to take down almost all of the invaders! But what about... the master of them all?! Can he defeat the ELDER TREE?!" He then glanced around as he asked this, looking for something to serve as the "Elder Tree".
"Now let's see... need one that's grown fer a while. Preferably one that's blocking out the light for some smaller saplings so that way I'm not just mindlessly destroying them." As he searched all around, he started to rise in the air. Slowly, ever so slowly rising above the canopy to find another tree that he could toss about. However, once he got above the tree line, he put a hand over his eyes to peer about. He then noticed the position of the sun, and opened his mouth wide in surprise. "AW NUTS! It's already past noon? ...Man, I gotta keep better track of the ol' time when I'm training. Maybe I'll buy watch."
He then went back to the ground and grabbed his bag containing all of his earthly possessions. Well, the important ones at least. After that, up he went into the air, before flying off to find something he could use for lunch. Either berries... or bison... He wondered if bison lived in forests. He knew deer did, and deer got pretty big. Or he could nip to a truck-stop somewhere and get some food there. He should still have enough zeni for it... Yeah, truck-stop. Truck-stop was way easier. He might even be able to get some zenii out of a fight or two.
