RPG Dragonball: Battlefield - Post Apocalypse

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue]PSM.......*unhappy visions*
~~~~~~~~~
[i]She sighed and got out from under the covers. Sleeping was quiet, null. Nothing bothered her for the time being, and Tornait was lying still, with his wings wrapped around his face. Folding her legs gracefully, she closed her eyes and concentrated. Her energy swiftly gathered in her hands, and she inhaled slowly.[/i]

Tornait: Don't sneeze now.

Sabir: Leave me alone. I am in a trance.

Tornait: Did I mention Xy is still asleep?

Xy: ......*snoring*

Sabir: What is the meaning of my existance?

[i]She rolled out of bed and stood up. She snuck over to the closet and got dressed, then she floated over to Xy's sleeping form and trickled her watercup on his head. He swatted the liquid away with one hand, until she dumped the whole thing on his chest.[/i][/COLOR]

[JesterSpirit]

After destroying yet another patch of dirt Laird sat down for a moment. Those nearly microscopic burst of energy didn't take almost anything out of him but he had been throwing quite literally thousands of them over the past hour and he was becoming somewhat exausted.

He leaned back staring at the sky and a slight beeping sound from his wrist grabbed his attention. He looked down and noticed the numbers on it for the first time and the fact that they had been updated.

Strength: 8
Defense: 10 >> 13
Speed: 19 >> 22
Ki: 63 >> 73

He pondered briefly over the significance. It seemed like such a vice to know exactly how little or how much he had advanced but he blinked such thoughts away and laid down on the dirt. Maybe he would sleep under the stars tonight, he missed doing that.

((OOC- I kept my stat growth low, he hasn't done much today.))

[Andrew]

[I]I apologise for my late entrance, I?ve been quite busy. Sorry if this inconveniences anyone.[/I]
-----------------------------

[I]Ageta's soft and weary gaze was left on the droid training area. He thought to himself that that was the best place to start since he had a thinking enemy to spar with and he didn?t have to worry about anybody watching him.[/I]

[I]Ageta?s mind wondered back to his first meeting with his new roommate - Alex. Although not much was said it was obvious they had a hidden respect for each other.[/I]

[I]With his fighting attire now on him and ready Ageta was going to put his power to the test. Uneasily Ageta strolled towards a door which had written in large grey text ?[B]Droid Room 4[/B]?. The door sensed Ageta?s approach and opened with ?Whoosh? noise.[/I]

[I]After stepping over the thresh-hold the door quickly and violently slammed shut behind him. The room was a large circular one, about 50 feet in diametre and roughly the same in height. On both the left and right sides were several robots in stationary position held to the wall by some restraints. Ageta thought that before beginning he would have a warm-up exercise to stretch his muscles. He stretched his arms high above his head and yawned. He then violently jerked his neck to the side with a large click, which echoed throughout the room for what seemed like an eternity. Ageta then brought his arms down quickly while at the same time leapt into the air performing a small summersault.[/I]

[I]He landed instantly back on his feet and then launched back into the air and touched the ceiling with his feet and shot off towards the far wall. This time he let his open palms hit the cold metal surface and used the strength of his biceps to throw himself from the wall. He then landed once more back on his feet and held his upright position for a few seconds before relaxing his body.[/I]

[I]Ageta always felt confident when he was with himself. He exhaled slowly and raised his arms to chest level. He could feel the power within him revealing itself. [B]Now[/B], he thought it time to begin the session. Ageta approached the Droid closest to him and looked it up and down. He flicked open the panel on it?s chest and looked at it?s controls.[/I]

[I]Ageta smirked to himself and began pushing buttons hoping for some result...[/I]

[conpiracymonki]

[i][size=1]
Yulaw put the bar onto its stand, and sat up on the bench he had been working out on for the past few hours. He wiped his forehead clean of sweat. He wasn't used to so much weight-lifting. He centred his left arm in his lap, and began to pull at the white loose string end on his wrist.

He tore at it, and after unwrapping both hands, he remained sat on the bench for a while. In his mind, he was deciding whether or not to continue. The answer came to him when he stood up and shook off his body. His triceps hurt. Maybe as bad as they did the time he had to sit in the garden in a painfully low horse-stance, under the glare of his mother, pushing and pulling a small weight. He had hated weights for as long as he could remember.[/i]

[b]'...'[/b]

[i]He walked out of the gym, towards his Dorm. It was getting late, and he was hurting.

Tonight he'd dream of home, and his tough-loving mother...[/i][/size]

[Flash]

[I]Xy bolted upwards, breathing heavily. His shoulder nearly hit Sabir's chin. He brushed his chest, before turning to Sabir, a sarcastic smile covering his face.[/I]

[B]Xy:[/B] ...May I ask why?

[B]Sabir:[/B] You just looked so peaceful... And we couldn't have that now, could we?

[I]Xy grinned, and stood up, grabbing a towel from his bedpost. He dryed his toned chest, and then grabbed his tanktop, and a shirt. He pulled them on, leaving the shirt unbuttoned, as per usual. He grabbed Sabir softly at the wrist, and pulled her towards the door.[/I]

[B]Sabir:[/B] Where are we going?

[B]Xy:[/B] Come on, I wanna show you something.

[I]Xy and Sabir walked through the empty East Wing corridoor of the Sanctum. They reached the main door, and Xy led them outside. It was nearing dusk, and the entire forest was golden.

Two dorms over, Tonberry lay on his bed, while Cactuar sat at a desk on the other side of the room, working on some new training device. Tonberry glanced over, and smiled. He admired Cactuar's dedication to his work. Tonberry got up, and walked over to the door.[/I]

[B]Tonberry:[/B] I think I'll go train some more. It's far too early for bed.

[B]Cactuar:[/B] Alright.

[I]Tonberry pushed the three-and-a-half foot door open, and closed it quietly behind him. He noticed the main door closing, and caught a glimpse of Xy and Sabir walking outside. He chuckled, and strolled down the corridoor that led to the Colosseum. He felt like fighting some droids, and he certainly intended to.[/I]

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]She smiled and stared at the sunset for a moment. A few dark memories pounded their way through her skull, and she ground her teeth silently. A bright sun, a reminder of her past. She looked at Xy, like she couldn't see him, and turned and ran back into the Sanctum.

He followed her retreat, but said nothing...to call her back.

As she ran, she held out her arm and whispered a few well chosen words. Tornait appeared in a river of black energy and stared at her.[/i]

Tornait: Why did you call?

Sabir: We are going to train. And I am not going to let this damned bloodlust take me over.

Tornait: Finally....

[i]Running down the hallway at full tilt, she slammed herself against the door and it gave. She tumbled into another training room, and concentrated.

Tornait brushed the door shut, then flapped across the room and expanded to his full size. His body became that of a humanoids, but he was still, unmistakeably Tornait. Huge wings, blacker than the blackest pitch. Golden eyes, brighter than the brightest sun. And a soul of pain, more painful that anything else.

Sabir growled and snarled. Her teeth bared themselves, and her body rippled. Energy collected around her body and her hair flew out behind her. Sabirsing brought her hands fowards, fingers slightly curved inwards, and eyes half shut. Tornait smiled to himself.[/i][/COLOR]

[Shinobi]

[i]Shin sotes about the Lobby just beside the main door, he is not sure what he want's to do. As he pulls out his PSM it reads:[/i]

[b][center]Stats

Strength: 35
Defense: 27
Speed: 30
Ki: 40[/center][/b]

[i]Pleased with his work, he does to work on his defense, he heard some of the others speak of "Droid Rooms" but it they didn't tickle his fancy...just now. His mood was more for gradual build up, rather than his usual "Must, Fight...Always win!" routine. He decided to once again, use a makeshift trainging scheme, since his last one, worked a treat on his Ki. He decided that outside was his best resorces. He walked out near by the river and waterfall werehe was earlier on in the day. He picks up a bundle of rocks, and closes his eyes. He squeezes tight, and finally he starts to levitate. He hovers slowly up and upuntil finally, he picks up speed and a small blue aura apears around him. He flies high into the sky and then when he is almost 3 miles in the air, he catapults the rocks, even FURTHER! He half flies, half drops to the ground and swiftly takes his Bandana off and ties it over his eyes so he is blind from his beautiful surroundings. His sights sense is away, but he ususes one of his others. He can practicaly pin point every rock falling, as soon as it was in range, he would destroy it, shattering it into many thousands. He is jumping up, down, left and right. Legs, arms and head swinging everywhere, he even usues some Ki, but very little. After about an hour or so, he finally decides to step it up a notch. He ties his hands behind his back and repeats the process. Acter that he un-ties his hands and ties his legs. All in all his Legs, arms and any other bidy parts used, got there fair share. He could feel them buldging, he got the same rush as he did with the G-Chamber insident. This was becoming a regular thing, his power was really increasing, and somehow, hefelt a small burning of a rage, of pure fury...ready for explotion. He loves his new home and the training....and the rewards.[/i]

[Andrew]

[I]After a few seconds of mindlessly hitting buttons Ageta got the hang of the contraption. He hit a few more buttons and the droid?s joints ?[B]clanged[/B]? as metal and metal struck. It?s head raised and it?s black eyes lit up with two great crimson lights. A fuzzy noise was heard just before the droid spoke.[/I]

[B]Droid:[/B] Single opponent; Saiya-jin... Power level set at Warm-up level, Simple defensive manoeuvres. Training session begin.

[I]The droid?s hand shot out at Ageta at a reasonable speed, not too hard to miss and not too easy to not try. Ageta?s left arm flew out to counter the droid?s right. They exchanged blows like this for a couple of minutes; The droid throwing out an arm or leg and Ageta blocking it with the opposite arm or leg.[/I]

[I]Progressively the droid got quicker and would make a more unexpected move. This did not surprise Ageta but some blows did make it a little more difficult for him. The droid suddenly stopped. It?s chest panel opened and a small blindfold came out. It?s metallic arm gripped the smooth cloth and handed it to Ageta.[/I]

[B]Droid:[/B] Increased warm-up level; defensive blindness.

[I]Ageta quickly tied up the blind fold and awaited the droid?s attack. At first the droid threw its right arm and punched Ageta clean in the stomach. He coughed slightly but took his stance once more. Next, the droid?s left leg was flung at Ageta. This time he was ready, he gripped the leg with both hands and threw the droid behind him. The droid stopped in mid-air and flew back at Ageta and they quickly exchanged punches and kicks as before.[/I]

[I]As Ageta was about to slam his open palm into the face of the droid it flew directly over him and gave a mighty kick to his spinal column. Ageta bent backwards in pain but quickly recovered to throw his right fist straight into the droid?s face. The sound of bare flesh hitting metal echoed through the chamber as did Ageta?s furious scream.[/I]

[I]The droid suddenly stopped and it?s electronic voice rang out.[/I]

[B]Droid:[/B] Warm-up level complete, Level 1 training begin...

[B]Ageta:[/B] I was wondering when this was going to get harder.

[I]Ageta removed his blindfold just in time for the droid?s charge. It slammed both its fist at Ageta but he quickly put up his arms in a cross to counter. The bones of Ageta?s fore arms clicked as he backed away and then kicked furiously with his left leg. The droid ducked and dodged each attack and flew straight up into the air.[/I]

[I]The droid?s hands joined together and some electricity formed over its body but mainly in it?s hands. Ageta guessed that this was the droid?s form of a Ki attack. Ageta quickly jumped forward in an attempt to strike the droid before it could fire but it failed and Ageta only ended up having the blast right in his face. Ageta quickly fel to the floor with his face in it. He pushed himself onto his elbows and looked at the droid who had now dropped to the ground and began to speak. Ageta could feel his legs going numb.[/I]

[B]Droid:[/B] Single opponent paralysed; Fighting technique ranked at ?Pathetic?. Ending training session.

[I]The word pathetic echoed through Ageta?s head over and over until the word lost all meaning. The last thing that Ageta?s father had called him was pathetic. It was this word that had made Ageta flip out and attack his father in the first place. His hands clenched together so that his muscles tensed and his palms bled. His energy was brewing all around him; the air in the room became thick. A large white aura encircled Ageta?s form as he rasied his head. A rage was brewing within him and he had no control over it. His eyes showed no emotion but one of rage and fury. Veins and arteries showed themselves through his skin and Ageta?s sane mind left him.[/I]

[I]The droid was preparing to shut down when Ageta launched his entire body at it. His fists flew at it?s face, severely damaging it?s face covering. Ageta gripped the droid?s left arm with his right and grasped his left shoulder with his left hand. In one fluent movement the arm was ripped from its socket and Ageta commenced to strike the droid several times with its own arm. The arm was flung behind Ageta and then his right fist embedded in the stomach area of the droid. It collapsed forward towards Ageta and he placed his left open palm in it?s face and screamed at the top of his voice the words ?[B]TETSA BLAST!![/B]?. The droid?s head was no-existent and Ageta continued to smash the battle droid to pieces.[/I]

[I]The droid was now in many pieces scattered over the floor. Ageta backed away, his eyes still wide open with rage. His teeth gritted together and he breathed hard. He suddenly slammed to the floor clutching his head in his hands. A slight whimper came from his person as his aura dispersed and his power dropped to it?s resting level.[/I]

[I]His PSM had fallen from his pocket next to him and it blinked with some numbers. His eyes glanced across at them.[/I]

[B]Strength:[/B] [I]25 >> 27[/I]
[B]Defense:[/B] [I]20 >> 23[/I]
[B]Speed:[/B] [I]40 >> 42[/I]
[B]Ki:[/B] [I]15 >> 18[/I]

[I]Ageta slumped over, his entire body aching and sore. He could feel the pain in his face from the blast the droid had given him, his legs still felt numb and his right side was bleeding. Ageta's consciences-ness was taken from him as he fell further, his face ?[B]banging[/B]? as it contacted the floor.[/I]

[Chaos]

[i]Arano now sat in the hallway that lead to the dorms on the bench he favored before. Simply thinking, and nothing more.[/i]

[b]Arano:[/b] [i]I already got it. I can't believe it was so simple. I didn't even have to strive very hard for it. Hah. Fire Saiya-jin at this low power level? He would kill me out-right if he knew how easy it really was. Well, all there is is the next step. I believe the base requirement was 100,000..And I'm at 144. Cripes. Long way to go. But not as long as it was for him. Hahahaha...[/i]

[i]Arano looked to the wall, peering at the clock. Three in the morning?! Arano cursed slightly, ad made his way back to his dorm, to get what little sleep he could. He would have to start training in only four hours again. Guess it's true what they say; 'No rest for the weary...'[/i]

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]Calling up the strength she had learned from her mother, she released the white energy from her hands.[/i]

Sabir: Spirit Force!

Tornait: Chaos Barrier.

[i]A black wall appeared around him, and Sabir's attack bounced off harmlessly, before whipping itself around and getting Tornait from the back. He hissed through his beak and flew out of range. Not only did Sabirsing's attacks obey her thoughts, they didn't seem to lose much power from it. Sabir curled her lip contemptuously.[/i]

Sabir: Nice try hawk.

Tornait: ...Look behind you girl.

[i]Her back automatically bent away, but by then it was too late. Black magic enveloped her body and she screamed. Tornait smiled and increased the power. Sabir moaned, but didn't cry out for him to stop. Instead, she used the mental conditioning from her childhood and willed the power back into her mind. Ignoring the stabbing pain lancing through her body, Sabirsing launched herself forwards at Tornait, staff in her hands. She unleashed a furious comination of blows and slashes acrost his body before Tornait let loose, and the blackness took her.

She sat up, rubbing her head ruefully.[/i]

Tornait: You're funny.

Sabir: You're cruel and unusual.

Tornait: You wanted to fight.

Sabir: I wasn't expecting a one sided fight. I was hoping for something fair.

[i]He merely smiled at her in that infuriating way, that pissed her off to no end. Then, without warning, disapeared, leaving Sabir with a rather injured pride, and a testy mood.[/i]

Sabir: ....damn him.

[i]The doors opened again, and she leaned on her staff casually. It was Arano, rubbing his eyes and yawning...showing all of his teeth in the process. Sabir cocked an eyebrow and smiled[/i]

Arano: What the hell are you doing up so late?

Sabir: I like the night....it's when the freaks come out.[/COLOR]

[Chaos]

[i]Arano checked the clock outside of the training room; four in the morning. A ****ing hour of sleep. He could sense the clashing energy even in his sleep. How wonderful. He drug his left hand over his face, and wiped some drool away.[/i]

[b]Arano:[/b] "Guh. How anyone could want to be awake at this hour is beyond me. I'm tired as ****.. ...Then again, I've been training almost nonstop."

[b]Sabirsing:[/b] "Did you just wake up?"

[b]Arano:[/b] "Yes, thanks to that damn bird. His energy kept diving and rising. Woke me the Hell up. But where did he go? I'd love to teach him a lesson for waking me up."

[b]Sabirsing:[/b] "I know a trick that'll wake a guy up in less than ten seconds."

[b]Arano:[/b] "Oh really?"

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]She prowled lazily around him...watching him carefully. He followed her movements, until, she brought her hands forwards and planted them on his shoulder blades. Light built up behind them, and she sent a surge of energy through his body, via the bones of his back. There was an audible crack as she knocked them out of, then back into place. He arched his body and turned around.[/i]

Sabir: Oops.

Arano: That....actually felt pretty good.

Sabir: I think I over did it. Sorry. It's been awhile.

[i]He rolled his body to one side and stared at her. Sabir bowed apoligetically and tipped her staff to one side.[/i]

Sabir: Awake?[/COLOR]

[Andrew]

[I]Whiteness. Things had never been so white. Ageta?s mind was wondering deep into his sub-conscious. Memories long forgotten were returning quickly. Scenes of blood stained bodies were all he could see outside the white. The bodies he instantly recognised as his mother and father.[/I]

[I]Suddenly Ageta?s eyes snapped open and he jumped to a sitting position. He could still feel the aching wounds of his ?spar?. The robot had nearly killed him before his brief moment of insanity. Ageta dragged himself to his feet with help from his tail, which was now untied from round his waist. Despite his low quantity of Saiyan blood Ageta still claimed the proud mark of one, a tail.[/I]

[I]He slowly made his way to the door. It opened in the same way it did when he entered and slammed again behind him. Ageta slowly made his way from the training quarters, back through the beautiful corridor and back to his dorm. He approached his bed and sat on it. Ageta?s eyes fixed on his bag next to him. He quickly pulled to him and began to rummage around inside and pulled out a small capsule. In large letters it had ?[B]01[/B]? written on it. Ageta threw it to the floor and the room filled with smoke. When it cleared, in place of the capsule, there was a large tank fitted with breathing apparatus. Ageta Sat himself inside and put on the breathing mask. The door to the tank closed and it began to fill up with a blue coloured liquid as Ageta drifted off once more into slumber.[/I]

[I]Several hours past, the soft ?humming? of the machine ended and the liquid drained. The tank opened and Ageta lazily stepped out. He stretched himself upwards, then to the left and finally to the right. He felt great. He could feel the Saiyan blood in him increasing his power after healing.

[B]There?s nothing like a nice relaxing bath to make you feel better...[/B] he cockily muttered to himself. From his wardrobe Ageta pulled out a pair of jeans. He quickly slipped them on and exited the Dorm.[/I]

[I]By this time it was early morning, around 6ish. Ageta decided to take this opportunity to meditate outside in the peace. He flew up about four foot into the air and stopped. His legs crossed and his arms folded, he closed his eyes and began to focus his energy. As before a white aura of light surrounded his form and his power raised itself to it?s maximum. Ageta concentrated his thoughts and all his body on his power, he needed to be a hell of a lot more powerful if he was going to go against that droid again, well, another droid. He wouldn?t even think about taking on a level 2 droid until he was happy and confident with level 1.[/I]

[I]The leaves on the trees fluttered with the light morning breeze and a few birds chirped their little song. Ageta, for the first time in his life, felt a sense of safety and felt he truly had a home in this sanctum. His aura flickered around him slightly, making his body tingle.[/I]

[I]His meditation halted. Ageta was confident that this days work was very good and was ready for more training perhaps later in the day, after breakfast maybe. He once again entered the doors of the huge building. He headed back over to the training area. He halted when he heard talking from a nearby training room.[/I]

[I]The door to the room was slightly ajar and, although Ageta never was one to pry in others affairs, he was curious to see who-else was up at this time. Inside he saw a man and a woman. The one known as Arano and the one known as Sabirsing. He then walked to the centre of the main room and looked around at the other activities this little play area had to offer.[/I]

[conpiracymonki]

[b][size=1]'Huh?'[/b]

[i]Yulaw was sitting in his bed, head pounding, body sweating. He had had a nightmare. He couldn't remember what it was about, but it had made him jump out of his sleep with a start. The alarm clock. He looked at the time. Six o'clock. he still had another hour before everybody'd wake up to train.

Wiping his forehead clean, and shaking the sweat onto the floor, he lied back down on his bed. He crossed his arms behind his head, and looked at the ceiling. He might as well sleep for the next hour; he was obviously going to need it.[/i]
[/size]

[Shinobi]

[I]Shin was still outside training, he was pleased with his intense Stat Building earlier, so he decided to calm it down a little. He firstly used a very easy, yet effective, ?calm? training as he calls it. Shin threw a stone into the river, but immediately shot a Ki ball following its every move about 3 inches behind the stone. Shin then jumped in following the Ki ball and grabbed the stone pulling it out before the Ki ball explodes and the water implodes and soaks you. Shin didn?t do so well on his first attempted but his second claimed victory. Another of his silly little training schemes, is to leap from rock to rock, but as you?re in the air, pull off two roundhouse kicks. Then next time you jump, pull off three and so on. Shin was having fun with himself, until he slipped on a slippery rock when he reached 250 roundhouses. By this time, he was bored and decided to go for a small dip in the river before proceeding back to The Sanctum. As he entered the front door of the lobby?noisily as usual, he noticed something strange, no sight nor sound of life![/I]

[color=Red][size=4][b]BEEP BEEP![/color][/size][/b]

[I]He quickly pulled out his PSM and noticed his stats had raised since he last checked:[/I]

[center][b]Stats

Strength: 49
Defence: 44
Speed: 50
Ki: 50[/center][/b]

[I]This, but, was not why his PSM beeped, it was an alarm set?.IT WAS 6 IN THE MORNING! Shin was shocked as he had no sleep and didn?t even feel tired. He spoke to himself:[/I]

?Meh, a real warrior doesn?t need sleep?

[I]He chuckled as he walked away to his Dorm, not to sleep but to just to get a shower, sit and maybe polish his Katana. He was bright and ready for MORE training, maybe sleeping in helped him a little?[/I]

[PiroMunkie]

[color=indigo][i]As early morning came around, Piro was no longer practicing the Zanzoken technique. Instead, sight came upon him sitting upright in his bed with his back against the wall. His eyes were open, but the rest of his body seemed entirely limp. Though, he was able to keep his head up, and every so often he would blink. His eyes themselves often darted across the room. He was in the euphoric state of rest that had been described earlier. The body sleeps while the mind stays alert and awake without attracting any kind of fatigue. A few more moments passed in tranquility.

Piro closed his eyes, and, as if his body had been shocked back to life, he jumped up from against the wall now finding himself in a very low crouch/squat keeping his balance and the balls of his toes. His hands were stretched out in front and off to the sides; his fingers spread wide as he maintained his balance for the next for moments. Following this time, he lowered his heels to the bed slowly. As soon as they came in contact with the bed, he pushed off to the side towards the closet straight of the bed and into a somersault on the floor. After completing a full roll he swiftly lifted himself so he was standing. He felt great. As he always did after he was able to rest like that. He was full of energy, and just ready to go and the slightest hint of a call. He decided to leave his cloak in the closet, as it was a bit of an inconvenience to have to carry it around. He pulled out his PSM and looked at his statistics once more, just to see where he was starting from:[/i]

[size=1][u][b]PIRO[/u]
Strength:[/b] 40
[b]Defense:[/b] 30
[b]Speed:[/b] [strike]45[/strike] » 50
[b]Ki:[/b] 30[/size]

[i]It seemed that practicing the Zanzoken non-stop paid off a bit. He could not recall exactly how long he worked with it, but it was definitely a while. He only acquired about an hour or two of rest.

With that, he pocketed the PSM and made his way back out towards the training areas. He thought he would try one of the gravitational chambers for starters, and maybe something lighter afterwards...[/i][/color]

[Shinobi]

[i]Shin was bursting with energy, he felt a mixture of emotions all flowing through him at one time, the feeling couldn't not be explained by words. He was thriving for power, strength, speed...he [b]needed[/b] training. He sat up on his bed eager to get on with his training, Gigaslave still was no were to be seen. Shin decided to have a shower, that usually calmed him down and made him feel a little big chilled and relaxed. He walked into the bathroom, undressed and walked into the shower, he didn't even wait for it to warm up. After his higenical routine he felt very much relaxed.[/i]

Shin: Man, i'm pretty bored....hmmm....what to do, what to do.

[i]An idea flew into his head. He had seen many of the other fighter in hypnotic like trances. He had never took a hand at meditation but there is a time for everything he thought and decided to have a go. He lay back, his head resting against his bed's headboard. He calmed himself, closing both eyes and finally cleared his mind. The black mist started to open up, exploding almost. Quick flashes of his early fights as a boy appeared, snippets of the hundreds and thousands. They cut off, the next flash image was not a fight seen, it was when he was only a tot. He sees a man in a white coat like garment, a small boy sitting on a table naked. The man in white turned the boy over, and to Shin's suprise...THE BOY HAD A TAIL! It was long and covered in brown hair. As the man in white pulled out a large knife and drove it down snapping it off, the boy thrived in pain, screaming! Shin shook his head violently to get the buzzing scream from his head. He sat up with his eyes wide open. He faintly remembers that Arano had a tail very much like that. Shin stood up and walked back into the bathroom, he felt the lower part of his back, whiles looking in the mirror, there was a tiniest of scars..."Was that me?" he thought. He shrugged and walked back. After about 15 minutes Shin was still very much bored, but was puzzled over the small meditation fiasco. He was itching to clear his mind again, but wasn't sure. After another 10 minutes of this self argument he decided to go for it once more. This time however it was much more pleasant, he felt much more tranquil and calm. But suddenly boomed a voice.[/i]

???: Shin.....SHIN!

Shin....F...Father? Dad? Is that you?

???: Yes my son, Isee you have mastered the great art of meditation! I am watching on you every second of the day my son, i like what i see!

Dad: Shin, that flash back you had...That was you...

Shin: I figured...but i can't remember that!

Dad: You were just a child, we were very concerned about that tail of yours. Yet we made a mistake...

Shin: How? I mean, i should'nt have a tail....should i?

Dad: Well Shin, i have met all of our fore-fathers before us up here, and they are a very special race!

Shin: I knew that i had a it of the race - Saiyan in me, but....

Dad: Yes my son, that is of what i speak! You and I are Half Saiyans! That tail, it was the tail of a Saiyan, it was a very powerful device indeed...But i think you can definitely make it without one, you have the power, strength and wisdom...go my son...Do It!

[i]The image of his Dad starts to fade but Shin bursts in![/i]

Shin: Dad! Wait! One last question!

Dad: Quickly my son!

Shin: Is Arano a half Saiyan too?

Dad: Ah no, he is a Full Breed! One last thing...there are higher levels!

[i]The picture snaps out of view with those words ringing in Shin's ears. He wondered to himself?.?there are higher levels??. He sat up in his bed and decided to go for a small sleep, although it won?t be much for it will be soon time for the eagerly awaited training to start once again![/i]

[Chaos]

[i]Arano leaned backwards, forward once more, and repeated this simple process a few times over. It was odd, really. He wasn't too used to having his bones shifted around so...liberally.[/i]

[b]Arano:[/b] "Well... Thanks, I suppose."

[b]Sabirsing:[/b] "Glad to help. Now then, since Tornait has taken leave... ...Would you like to spar?"

[i]Arano said nothing. His eyes grew dark, his face turned sour, and his snake-like veins slithered up underneathe his skin once more. Energy flustered outwards from within, forming an icy blue aura, which pulsed dangeriously and angrily.

The Saiya-jin drew both fists back swiftly in a classic powering-up pose. But instead, he was ready for the fight now. This was his defensive position. His right foot lightly scraped the floor as it came to rest under his right shoulder; his left side following suit.[/i]

[b]Arano:[/b] "Ladies first..."

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]Her eyes glittered silver with anticipation, and she dropped into her own fighting stance....Sabirsing's energy slowly concentrated itself in her veins, then sped up her entire body. The blood began to flow faster and smoother, her heart sped up and her pulse began to flutter. Then she smiled.

With a swift twist of her body, she arched to one side, doing a double ariel. Her left hand touched the ground twice, before she brought both up. The palm of her right smacked solidly against his chin, but not doing enough damage. Immediately after, she bent backwards, avoiding his punches, and turned to one side. Her right leg went down and she went into preperation again.[/i][/COLOR]

[Chaos]

[i][center]The leg touched the ground. Go.[/center]

Arano's body blurred as he jetted forth, such extreme speeds that seemed impossible by such a burly figure. His right hand came out, balled into a tight fist, but hit nothing more than a mere open-palm block. He kicked left, and got a dodge to the side in return. Sabirsing was quite the nimble one.

Taking a quick chance to power up, Arano burst forward once more, and slung his fists out madly. Sabirsing took her leave, and bounded backwards; as soon as her feet touched the ground, she disappeared, an afterimage there-after fading away.

Arano assumed his previous position, and waited the strike. It came in the form of a blow to the neck, a kick or chop. It was barely anything, but the single blow was then followed by many. Headshots, kicks to the back, and elbows sent the Saiya-jin sprawling to the side.

He instantly shot up, and threw his hands above his head. A sphere of ki molded around his skin, and expanded ever so quickly. It found the target Arano could not. It wrapped itself around the girl, and trapped her deep within a ball of pure energy. She tried her best to move, kicked, punched, and swung her staff. Nothing freed her, and nothing would.

Arano dove upwards, daintly floating above the girl for a moment, right fist drawn, legs brought up in habit of style, and the blow was landed. A deep impression was left in Sabirsing's cheek, as a shockingly loud smack was heard. Energy had been slid into the punch, and the visible aftermath was a potent shockwave which rocked the nearby training facility.

As soon as the sphere of light made contact with the ground below, a hellfire was unleashed upon Sabirsing. The ball exploded, and knocked her back up into the air, where she regained what composure and pride she had left. She snarled and bared her fangs towards Arano. But he saw none of it. Instead, he was too busy.

His eyes flashed white, and kept the color after a moment or two, his body cut down and still bulked up. His aura changed drastically, mimicing flames. His hair spiked up ever so slightly, but noticibly. It came at that fine line where you could tell it had moved, but not much at all. His power seemed off the wall, and it was just that. His PSM beeped several times, but only after rushing his ki out of his body did he look, while wind whipped at he and his opponent.[/i]

[i]Arano shoved the PSM into his pocket angrily.

[center]**** that piece of junk. This is who I am. I will regain my former glory![/center]

Arano blitzed forward, unable to be seen by Sabirsing, and punched her square in the gut. She started to fall downwards, winded, grasping her stomach. Her eyes gained a furious red tint to them, and her body began to change...[/i]
-- -- --
Geheheh. Fire Saiya-jin ownz j00z.

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]The female Laporin clenched her teeth and her energy level plummeted to rock bottom....and Arano smirked. The look was immediately replaced by one of shock. Her eyes were not only rapidly changing from red to silver...but her body was morphing. Her spear was forgotten on the ground as her psyche changed from normal to completely feral.

Several things happened at once. Her teeth elongated into fangs, her hands changed to talons, and her forehead quickly changed from humanoid to dragouret. Three horns sprouted from either side, and she began to look decidedly posessed. She hit the ground on all fours, spine changing and crackling to suit her needs. Her feet had been changed from five toed to only three, and all of them were covered by thick claws. Her shoulderblades itched, but didn't sprout wings yet. She shook her mane like hair and growled at Arano.[/i]

Sabir: ....jerk.

Arano: ...the hell?

Sabir: You'll get used to it.

[i]With a leap and a slight turn, she caught him on the shoulders and dug her claws in. Both sank deeply into his neck, and he shook her free, only to get kicked in the face. She whirled and landed on her toes. Then she stood up again and waited for his next move.[/i]

[PiroMunkie]

[color=indigo][i]Piro walked through the threshhold of one of the gravitational training facilities. It was more or less a big empty room with a control panel in it, which would work with the gravity. Piro walked nonchalantly over to the panel and examined it. Nothing seemed to be operative.

A small blinking green light to his left caught Piro's eye. It seemingly being the only working button on the panel, Piro pushed it. A medium-high pitched beep bounced off the walls of the spacious room. This was soon overtaken by a low hum of the gravitational machine warming up. Obviously, nothing had changed yet due to the fact that the gravity was still at one times normal. Piro searched the panel for how to raise the gravity and soon found a little keypad of numbers. He pondered a bit, and pressed on the five. The numerical symbol appeared flashing on a little screen. Nothing was different, still. Piro noticed an "enter" button below the keypad, and pushed it. Just as he did, the entire atmosphere of the room seemed to change immediately. Piro began to step back from the panel as his steps slowed as they became heavier. The change in atmosphere gave the air a faint reddish tint. Piro stopped and braced himself as the final increase of gravity settled in. He found it not too be too much of a struggle to stand, but moving was going to be a bit more difficult.

So to begin his increased gravitational training, Piro began walking as well as he could. Starting without the pave of about a step per ever three to five seconds. Some faults were made at first, and he would fall. He just got right back up, and continued. He would get used to it eventaully.[/i][/color]

[conpiracymonki]

[i][size=1]
Slowly, the numbers on the digital clock Yulaw was squinting at began to focus and clear. His head hurt. As if he had only slept for about half an hour.

|[/i][][i]FO...He couldn't see what the time was yet, but he knew he had overslept a little. He turned over in his bed. And turned back. The best way to get rid of a headache this big would be a quick shower. He shook his head and smothered it in the pillow before attempting to check the time again.

10:58...10:58?! Why wasn't he woken up? They let him sleep in? He jetted off in the direction of the shower.
[/i]
[b]'Dammit..'[/b][/size]

[PiroMunkie]

[color=indigo][i]The room was quiet. Dead quiet... all except for the rhythmic, soft grunting of the warrior as he had managed to string himself up at his ankles hung upside-down from the ceiling. With his hand crossed firmly over his chest, Piro strenuously lifted his torso over the heightened gravity of the room. Aside from that, the only other sound that could be heard was the small beads of sweat plummeting to the ground. The sound of which remarkably echoed perfectly in the tranquility of the chamber.

Piro put forth his final effort as he folded himself almost entirely in half. His eyes shut tight as sweat collected heavily on his brows, then proceeding to roll down his face and find their way to the jaw where they would begin their to descent to the smooth, solid floor. Piro lowered his body, finishing his last set as he then let his arms dangle; tiny beads periodically falling from the very tips of his fingers. His eyes remained closed as he took a moment to relax. Then, with a snap movement from his feet, he let himself drop to the surface as the sharp smack of flesh against floor pierced the overall calm of the air. The hum of the gravitational machinethen seemed louder in Piro's ears, as if he had just woke up from some obscure daydream. His body squirmed and writhed on the ground for a little bit; not from pain, but simply from fatigue. Flopping over onto his stomach, Piro proceeded to push himself up and eventually get to his feet. His stance was anything but erect. The effects of the training were more than apparent, but there was a look in his eyes that said he was not done. If anything, he was far from it.

With lazy movement, Piro manage himself into an upright position. Feet together. Fists fit to his sides. Straight spine. Shoulders square. His head, though, was bowed forward as his soaked hair dangled forward. If someone had not seen him before, it would seem to them as if he had only begun his trainging. Aside from the profuse perspiration, he seemed quite out of his fatigue. Piro took in a deep breath; his torso expanding with it. He held it like that for a moment... Then let is loose with a controlled exhale. As this happened, his body developed a distinct, misty, red aura that even with its slow, hypnotic movement possessed a sweet sense of calamity. He seemed so peaceful on the outside, but inside his destructive power lurked heavily as it waited.

Breaking from his mold, Piro widen his stance and allowed his fist to come over in front with his arms staying straight down. His aura flickered more anxiously now as he did this. He drew in a deep breath once more, but this one was abrupt as Piro then whipped his head back releasing an earth-pounding yell that seemed to shake the chamber. Though, even the great force of this vocal display was overwhelmed by the violent fury of random, chaotic energy that overspread throughout the room...[/i][/color]

[Shinobi]

[i]Shin sat in his room, doing various fancy moves with his Katana he decided he would have a little bit of fun. He ran about the room furiously grabbing random pieces of normal household items. After about 15 minutes a half-human shape manikin was formed. He quickly slapped some old clothes on it and decided to try a little bit of controlled power and speed. As fast as lightning his Katana flew from each shoulder, above his head, down to his up thigh, and repeated its over and over. It was over in merely one or two seconds, he stopped as a bead of sweat ran down his nose. It plunged in slow motion, almost as if it was doing a diving routine. When the splash hit the ground all throw clothes shredded and fell to the flow. This showed the speed, of Shin's action. He gave a quick smirk and thought to himself:[/i]

"This isn't what I want...I need MORE...this is petty pansy ********! Is that what they take ME as?!?"

[i]He was snapping, Shin did this once in a while, but has been occurring much more often lately. His hand snapped forward in a jab motion and then he started to pound into the manikin. Hands and Legs flew affray as he leathered into it. The small piece of rubbish obviously couldn?t take it and crumbled very quickly. Shin's head snapped back. Veins popping out and sweat pouring down his face. He ground his teeth and walked over to the door slamming it shut and stormed to the training facility.[/i]

Shin: I need to hit something *pounds wall* There must be someone or something!

[i]He looked frantically around him when he spied the Driod Chambers. An almost Phychotic smile appeared on his face as he ran to the chamber...he was in one hell of a mood.[/i]
