Flying towards the direction of his master Suki's ship, Jorlaxl was thinking hard, as usual. It seemed that as he improved, he began to become more and more thoughtful. At first, all he wanted was to become stronger, and to achieve his perfect form, as per what his creator Pharaun intended. However, now it seemed that that was only a goal to be reached eventually, and not to be Jorlaxl's focus. Besides, from what 2B has been telling him, even if he found the android he needed, he wasn't strong enough to absorb him or her.
Speaking of which, how was he supposed to absorb an android? Does he... eat them? Jorlaxl shuddered to himself as he was flying towards Suki's ship. That would be horrible. 2B's reception has become stronger since arriving on Vegeta (a further indicator that Pharaun was on Vegeta, at least fleetingly,) and Jorlaxl saw it fit to ask him of his opinion.
First of all, I must applaud your fight with Endive. It seems you're advancing rather nicely, even without my help. Now, as per your question, there is a part of your body that I chose to hide from you, for your own good. When you are powerful enough, you will absorb your prey from your tail. That will trigger your transformation. However, you can still absorb energy from any enemy.
Puzzled, Jorlaxl stopped flying for a moment, and he was over what seemed to be a restaurant on the ground below. He had a tail? He never knew this! Looking at his back, he certainly didn't see one. Are you serious? I don't see a tail... Jorlaxl wasn't sure if 2B was playing a prank on him (if he even had a sense of humor,) and if he was, it wasn't very funny at all. This knowledge was essential to his evolution!
No, I'm not joking. Your tail is inside of your body, and able to come out and retract back inside whenever you choose. Apparently, your creator did his research, and didn't want your tail to be easily seen, and therefore, sliced off. Of course, you could grow it back, but those vital moments could well be enough for the android to escape.
Disbelieving, Jorlaxl concentrated. He imagined a tail growing out of his body, no matter how gross it sounded or felt. Slowly but surely, he felt an extra appendage slide out of his backside, and Jorlaxl turned his head around. Seeing a dark purple tail with black lines through it, he smiled to himself.
"A tail, huh? Interesting... You say I can absorb energy from enemies? Most interesting, indeed."
He felt like it was time to test out his new-found abilities on the unsuspecting Vegetan populous below. He wasn't feeling his best after the fight with Endive (Damn Gurin! Interrupting our fight!) and wanted to get back to full power.
Slowly descending to the ground, he entered the shop below, which he noticed sells noodles primarily, along with other small meals. It wasn't particularly busy, and was only occupied by a few people. The workers hardly noticed him, and the customers cast him no more than a cursory glance. Until, of course, they noticed his tail. It was whipping in the air behind him, excited to be around finally. Jorlaxl saw that it had a dark crimson stinger on the end, razor sharp and menacing.
He walked up to the counter, and said to the cashier, who was a weakly looking saiyan:
"I come with the World Trade Organization, spearheaded by the Icer Touteksuki Yakedo. The general of your army lies dead, killed by Touteksuki. Your king has fled the planet, seeking refuge from my lord. We Traders have taken out the key figures of your military, and your planet has no leadership anymore. And you're probably wondering why I'm here, correct?" His tail was coiled around his left arm.
The cashier gasped at the news, and said, shaking, ""Yes... what are you going to do with us? We aren't in the army, we're simple civilians!" He took a few steps back from the front counter. Everyone else in the shop was quiet, awaiting the strange creature's reply.
The entire noodle shop was quiet.
Laughing, Jorlaxl reached forward with blinding speed and grabbed the saiyan cashier by the shirt. Putting his face right in close proximity to the saiyan's, Jorlaxl whispered to him, loud enough for the rest of the store to listen.
"We've come to take what you filthy creatures don't deserve. If you don't submit, you will be destroyed."
With that, his tail finally sprung into action. Uncoiling around his arm, the tail plunged deep into the cashier's chest, squirming and drilling its way through. Jorlaxl felt exquisite ecstasy course through him as the tail went to work. With a mental command, the tail began sucking the saiyan dry, absorbing all fluids and nutrients from his body. After a few moments of pleasure unmatched before now, Jorlaxl freed his tail with a quick snap, and let the body to crumple to the ground, little more than a dry husk.
This was when the store burst into righteous fury.
Everyone began shooting ki blasts at Jorlaxl with surprising speed, but none of them were fast enough. He noticed at that moment that none of these pathetic saiyans were half as strong as he was, and the strongest was still weaker than he was when Jorlaxl first was created. Chuckling to himself, he blocked the ki blasts the patrons were shooting, and they bounced back and struck the walls, the scenery, and occasionally, even the person who shot it at him in the first place. One ki blast hit the zeni register, sending coins flying everywhere.
Jorlaxl felt completely restored after sucking one fool dry. A very useful technique indeed. But now wasn't the time for contemplation. He needed to fight his way out of here. The patrons were getting angry at their blasts being useless, and they started to run at him, in an attempt to subdue him with hand-to-hand combat.
All 4 of the customers charged at once, and Jorlaxl was ready. With one hand, he punched one in the torso so hard that it slammed his body into the wall, knocking him out. With his other hand, he grabbed the foe by the face and threw him at another attacking enemy, where they slammed into each other with blinding speed and collapsed. The last one was stopped by his tail, which slammed into him hard, splitting tendons and breaking hard bone underneath.
Dazed and confused, the saiyan fell to the ground, bleeding both externally and internally. The one he threw into the wall came back towards him slowly, more cautious this time. Jorlaxl threw a left punch, feigning an attack, and the saiyan took the bait. Grinning at Jorlaxl's "mistake," the saiyan grabbed his arm, and started to kick him. Jorlaxl saw his opportunity, and slammed the tail into the attacker, corkscrewing into his chest. Sucking vigorously, the tail gave Jorlaxl back all of the strength and power he lost during Endive's fight, as well as any that might have been lost here.
Making sure the enemies were dead, Jorlaxl left them there. Slowly, he looked around and picked up all of the money he could find. If he could save up enough, he could afford something he's had his eyes on for a while now on space-craig's list...
Gathering all of the money, Jorlaxl flew out of the store, back on the course to Suki's ship. He didn't want to get left behind on this backwater planet. His work here was done.
((Finished! Zenni, please. And life-draining tail technique added.))
