Pushing Limits (x15 Spar w/ Rensou)

[Rensou Hiruen]

The elbow spilled blood. Rensou was pleased as his own face dripped with the crimson, reinvigorating his utter need to cause bodily harm to whomever chose to stand before him. The Inaurian had used the impact and his own movement to evade the smashing joint between thigh and shin, and used that very knee as a platform to land a stomp into Rensou's chest. The torso was strong, lined with muscle, and though it hurt, it was not as damaging had the strike been aimed for the lower regions of the torso.

Keen eyes followed the graceful movements of the last of Inaurian kind, and Rensou anticipated the leg aimed for the back of his head. The Saiyan tumbled, rolling across the ground and avoiding any further onslaught the Inaurian hurled his way before nimbly rolling to his feet and spinning, only to realize he was between Ikezu and a blast clearly aimed for him. Using the momentum of the spin and Bukujutsu, Rensou quickly moved out of harms way.

With spheres churning the air around him, the Saiyan bared his teeth in the barbaric, animal-like way his race was apt to do – a sneer to rival the beast across the way from him. The chest rose and fell rhythmically as Rensou fed his tuned muscles with heavy oxygen. The Saiyan was choosing to bide his time, anticipating another charge from the Inaurian.

“Here, kitty, kitty. . .” he repeated, stifling a chuckle growing within his throat.

Rensou didn't have time to talk before the Inaurian was on top of him, if he could notice he would see a white fire beginning to manifest over Ikezu's hands and legs, each attack leaving a trail of heat behind. The first attack was a cross punch, the second a hook to the ribs, the third a forearm strike to the chin, and the last would be a knee to the opposite ribs. If any was evaded Ikezu would use his agility to keep on Rensou while simultaneously dodging those hellish balls as best he could (though rightfully he would be grazed and knicked alot despite his agility), and he'd be hit allot in the exchange with Rensou. However every attack he landed his smile grew into a grin, and the heat became more intense until it burst outwards a flame of power wrapping itself around Ikezu's arms and legs. Each strike would now feel twice as powerful, and as Rensou dodged (should he dodge) he would notice the trail becoming longer. Ikezu didn't know how he was doing this, but he would train this technique fully later. All he knew was that it was epic!

Punches, kicks, knees, flips, blocks, flashes of power, instant minute movements which the naked eye couldn't process, every thing coming down to this. Finally he would launch a blast of ki close range into Rensou's right knee and deliver an uppercut with his other hand who's purpose was to launch Rensou away.

As soon as Rensou was air born the White Fire wrapped around Ikezu's entire body, flowing freely into his hands forming into a warm ball. This was it, all or nothing.

"Iet Haijian, har ken Rensou. (Thank you, my brother Rensou.) Thank you."

Ikezu's mane blew back, the floor beneath him cracked as sweat left his body and blood did the same floating in the air around him. He was beaten, bruised, yet at peace with this bout. He was ready for whatever came ahead, life, death, or other wise.

His hands moved forward, his legs pushing against the ground, the warm ball of white flame left his hand and moved in what felt like slow motion towards the now stationary Rensou.

But in fact it would look like a bullet flying through the air at speeds, unnoticed between the time that passes between the blinks of an eye. Yet to Rensou, it would look like a rather fast ki blast, but no more no less.

They traded. To and fro, hands and feet and shins and elbows collided with flesh and with bone. Blood was spilled, both warriors marred. For every strike Ikezu landed, Rensou was landing, and then at opportune instances, his Tsurunoha would seek through and even the score, for his strikes were landing with greater frequency as opposed to stronger force. Around the gravity chamber the two fought, blurring to new locations to begin the fight anew with uses of Zanzoken, in hopes of gaining an advantage. Once one of them, Ikezu and Rensou, begin to attain the upper hand: a ferocious counter from the losing fighter would sway the battle.

Finally, the Inaurian chose against reengaging Rensou at close range as one of his strikes sent the smiling Saiyan airborne. With speed and focus, the lion let go of a powered blast of his ki which would win the day. It seemed the Inaurian was showing the Saiyan a new trick with the increasing damage of his strikes, well, the Saiyan had something to show the Inaurian.

Had the Tsurunoha not been so exhausted, the ferocity of the only blast technique Rensou ever needed would have overwhelmed what Ikezu's own could muster.

“Chou Tsuruha~” Rensou simply said, but before he could utter the words those twin orbs of destruction melded and became altogether something vastly more powerful. A flash of wave strength hardly ever touched upon even by the most astute ki masters. Cradled in his palms at the end of arms struggling to contain the full power of the single sphere, the glowing orb launched a beam that met and matched Ikezu's own.

If only those damned weights were off. . .

If only he had fired it earlier.

Too many scenarios played out, but the end of the fight mattered not. Ikezu had said something in his own language, and his tone was appreciative; Rensou got the message. This match was done. By the time the waves had dissipated, both fighters would certainly be too spent to continue without risking serious harm to the other. They had an intergalactic tyrant to face, neither could risk that.

“I'll buy the beer,” Rensou offered, for he earned the higher wages. Though, after this showing, Ikezu was probably due a promotion!

Bone met bone in clashes so powerful that even after the fight was over echoes of their battle still raged on throughout the chamber. Flesh cut, blood spilled, and Ikezu would need to hire a cleaning lady, because the once white room was now splattered red. The match remained even forever, with Ikezu pushing the battle into his favor through pure will alone, only to be hit hard by those damn hellish green spheres. Through perseverence, and power of spirit Ikezu kept pushing forward, and pushing forward. His hair becoming sleek with sweat. The flames in his eyes becoming more intense by the moment.

Finally the moment had arrived, Ikezu had released his most powerful technique, and a flash of green told him that Ren had done the same.

"Chou Tsuroha~ tsuroha- uroha- roha- oha- ha- a." Shouted the general from across the room. The echo reverberating around Ikezu like a voice from the heavens.

The two powerful forces clashed, and a wave as powerful as both combined would hit both Rensou and Ikezu shoving the later against the wall and too his knee.

The battle was done, and neither man was the victor. Which to Ikezu meant that he was the victor, technically being the one with the lower power level.

"I'll buy the beer," Rensou said.

Ikezu too weak to talk, stood up, cleared his throat and nodded.

The beast would pull out his controller and turn the gravity off, and the weight of a thousand worlds was lifted off of his shoulders as he approached Rensou.

"That was a glorious battle, brother. We should do this again sometime, and maybe then I'll actually beat you." Ikezu smiled widely, and patted his new friend on the shoulder. Rensou may not know this, but Ikezu calling him brother was the very pinnacle of respect, admiration, and loyalty. It meant that to Ikezu, Rensou was more than just a comrade. Ikezu saw him as blood, and would protect him, fight for him, and be loyal to him until the end.

The two brothers, born from different worlds would depart together and head to the nearest pub. There, Ikezu would order a glass of "Saiyan Pride", a drink deserving of its name. Sharing with Rensou, fond memories of his past, and old planet. Along with its fate, and Ikezu's resolution.
