The battle continues! Nam vs Touketsuki Yakedo

[Nam Reikonaga]

Nam followed closely behind Touketsuki, but by the time he caught up his target had disappeared into the sky with his teleportation technique. The lizard had finally cracked. He stood above everything, its psychotic laughter echoing through the skies and remaining mountains while Nam remained close to ground peering from below. It seemed Nam hit a nerve with that last statement and revealed a side of Touketsuki Yakedo that nobody had ever seen. He lost his cool, he was going nuts!

There was an eerie yet ferocious wind in the air, Nam’s body shivering from the evil vibe that had invaded the area. Goosebumps ran down his spine as his dilated eyes observed the rapidly growing ball of raw energy; a giant orb of red and purple ki. Such a high concentration that Nam couldn’t help but cringe in its presence.

“What is this…” he pondered. Touketsuki continued laughing the whole time, it was horrifying. Nam immediately starting to think about his options, -there were no options! This attack was so concentrated and pure, that if Nam were to evade it, the entire planet would explode! And the only person between that and the planet in this very moment was the golden warrior. He couldn’t block it either; he’d just be taken with it. The only solution he came up with as the maniacal lizard thrust the ball down was to intercept it.

DAMNIT! Nam’s favorite word apparently, it was the best expression for any hardship he faced.

That thing ACTUALLY tossed THAT thing. The colossal ball of energy seemed to each away at the atmosphere as it descended any plant life around withering and burning to ashes before it was even halfway down. Nam was genuinely shaken beyond reality. To think this guy had so much destructive power since the very beginning. Nam would have made the perfect villain since he wouldn’t have wasted so much time playing with food –then again, he may think that, but he played with it anyway. DAMNIT! why didn’t he finish it right away? Why did he let his saiyan blood blind him? Why was he blinded by this power?

It was as Kami said. Power corrupts the mind, and although Nam said he would never submit to power, those words became dull and empty the moment he forgot who he was because he became some golden warrior. Instead of keeping his calm and taking his time to eat away at his opponent, he should have finished it the moment he realized he could stand up to him. Terror once again invaded his heart and soul as the blast continued to strike down.

”Finish… it…”

“NO!” He called out, his anger and passion returning with intense eyes. He wouldn’t let them down, not now. He wasn’t going to just stand here like a sitting duck and let the entire planet and its inhabitants vanish. He had something to prove, a mother to avenge, expectations to meet and rise to. He couldn’t die yet, he need to tell Zach about his saiyan heritage and show him that they’re not all the same. He needed to show Kami and everyone else that their faith wasn’t in vain. They placed their bets and they did right. Nam was going to defend the earth with everything he had.

The saiyan began to power up, making sure he had every single ounce of energy to his disposal. His screaming reverberated throughout Mt. Paozu along with Touketsuki’s insanity flushing down the drain with his evil crazy laugh. It seemed as if the entire planet was shaking as he crouched and brought his cupped hands back for another round.

“KA… ME….” He yelled out, his voice echoing within his voice and spreading to the air where it’d ring other’s eardrums. “HAAA… MEEE…!” the ground beneath him began to crumble under the pressure of both individual ki. Rubble surrounded him as he descended to firm land and his feet sunk deep into the rocky ground. The blue orb of energy grew and intensified, glowing brightly, the land rolled away from the epicenter, leaving stroked of pointy rocks standing and facing the sky. Nam was in the center of it. His turquoise eyes slanted on the red and purple ball that threatened the continued existence of their planet and race.

Zach… Kami… Everyone…

“THIS… IS –FOR –YOU”

Nam thrust forward, his motion a bit lagged by all the power in his hand. Never in his life has he wielded so much intense power and never in his dreams did he think he would. Touketsuki’s laughter still penetrated the troubled skys and thunder roared as the biggest Kamehameha Wave in history broke the sound barrier –but not because of its incredible speed, no, because of the heavy power itself that it wielded. Two powerful attacks so strong that could bend space and time.

To reflect this attack it would take every bit of Nam’s new found power. As the blasts clashed, a display of light was shown. Sparks flied as the giant ball of energy was suddenly put to a halt and its passing was blocked by Nam’s own Energy Wave. “HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!” he screamed, the vibration of his lungs and body, the energy expelling from his natural body helping further fuel the red and purple ball of ki until the Death Ball began to slowly retreat.

Fire, that was all Ki really was right? I mean legitimately speaking Fire is an energy that when fueled gets brighter, and bigger, and hotter, but without that fuel it can be weak and destroyed. Fire can be destructive, burning down entire cities, but it can also be constructive, serving as one of the greatest resources known to not only man kind, but to all races of life. Warmth, food, Fire provided all of these things, as did Ki. It was truly a clash of Fire. On one side, the destructive, Chaotic Fire burned within Suki, so much so that it even frightened him. He had never launched a death ball that was that large, because he had never been at his 100% form. The ball was literally the largest attack the universe had felt in over a thousand years. The very fabric of the planet was ripping away without even making contact with the ground. This fire, would burn a hole through the entire planet.

But that same fire, the same fire used to destroy, can be used otherwise, and has been. The hero of this tale, the boy whose faith was placed in by everyone, was now facing off against the greatest threat known to the universe. A creature undefeated in his own right, a creature that was so unbeatable that he in fact had never seen his true talents before this day. And yet using his fire, his burning desire, love, and even hate, shooting an attack that by any normal odds would be considered pale in comparison. Was holding off the creatures greatest attack.

The Ki clashed, creating physical lightning that crashed into the ground below him. Mt Paozu was no more, the second world monument destroyed by the tyrant. This was as expected, Touketsuki Yakedo had been feared for nearly a years time. Ever since his name was first echoed at the mighty universal tournament, warriors had clambered to face him. The first was Zach, who beyond his best efforts, hardly pushed suki into his second form, one that Suki knew all to well. The next was a saiyan general, whose pride won him a spot on suki's trophy shelf as making it to his third form. A feat never before accomplished by a single warrior. Toshio, Kami, Zach, Rensou, Royd, Gurin, Jorlaxl, Caius, Serori, and even Nam up until this point had been incapable of stopping these creatures reign of destruction. And yet now he stood, combating with his strongest attack, in his most desperate hour.

And it happened. The wave turned the attack, Suki could feel the energy as it made its way back towards him. Even slower than it had initially been thrown, Suki could feel the power escaping his grip.

No, it cannot end this way, it just can't!

Suki thought to himself, his mind racing, panicking even. Today was a difficult day for him to process, his truest form beaten by a common saiyan, and his best attack bested by the bestest attack of the bestiest warrior. There was only one thing he could do.

As Nam had demonstrated, Ki can be controlled even after its release. This was Suki's final measure. Before the Ki could get any closer, Suki yelled out, making sure that even through the Chaos, Nam could hear.

"If I can't kill you myself, then I will take you with me!"

And with that the death ball exploded, right their in mid air. The shock wave was impeccable, sending suki rocketting into the atmosphere. All of the nearby mountains were crushed, and likely the surrounding area's as well (Sorry victory school). The fire of the death ball burned out, engulfing the entire area for miles around, and even tearing into the earths crust that it had not hit before. From this detonation point it would not destroy the earth. But the crater it created would be far greater than any destruction the earth had seen in the last thousand years. This was the sort of destruction that legends were made of. Back in the days of old, where magically the cities would rebuild themselves in an instant. But in this case, the mountains were no more, as the explosive power of the death ball ripped through everything nearby, including Nam's Kamehameha wave which was more than definitely ended in the blast.

The explosion was loud enough that it could be heard for miles around, and the shaking could be felt likely world wide. But once it was finished, a deep, eerie silence overtook the battle field.

Unaware of how Nam was, how he had dealt with the blast. If he was dead, alive, injured, just fine. It was not important to suki, at least not at the current time. His body fell to the ground like a rag doll, hitting the edge of the crater, and immediately rolling down the hill of it, his body burned with the sensation of his own attack, and his pride hurt from the fact that it had come to such a blast. But there it was, the weakened Icer lay on the ground, not trying to move, or make a sound, Just listening, and waiting. What would he do now? All he could do was wait to see how the tale came to its conclusion. With, or without the icer lord as the antagonist.

[Nam Reikonaga]

Nam was lying on the ground, embedded into part of the crater with his arms apart. His long brown hair sprayed on the ground with dark brown eyes staring blankly at the sky. Every part of his body felt numb from the blast that now flashed through his head.

“Damnit…!” were his words after being taken by the wide blinding light as the Death Ball exploded. Everything that was Mt. Paozu was destroyed and left nothing but a giant scar on the earth. The winds were ferocious and unforgiving, he watched as everything that remained crumbled and was washed away by the blast, leaving absolutely nothing in its wake.

Nam coughed violently, shaking off all the debris over him. His body let off steam from the heat of the blast. His pants had miraculously survived, but how was beyond him. An entire monument had just faded from existence and his pants survived; it was definitely something to be recognized… Nam chuckled, and although it only worsened the intense pain, he couldn’t help be laugh at himself and his achievement. The planet was intact and it was thanks to him. As for him… was this the end? He thought, slowly closing his eyes as he struggled to keep his consciousness. If I die… it’ll be okay… right? he pondered.

He wouldn’t be able to avenge his mother, and he wouldn’t be able to speak with his friends for one last time –but maybe it was fine? Maybe everything was going to be okay now… Touketsuki Yakedo was gone and… and the world was safe. Everything… was… What!?

Nam’s eyes opened to the sound of something rolling down the crater. He didn’t have to stand up to see it but it was clear. No way… he thought. But maybe it WAS possible. After all, he was alive, wasn’t he? Nam struggled, as he tried to pick himself back up, but instead, he ended up crawling down the crater. After a while he decided to just let his body roll down until he reached the intercepting point of the other object.

“Y-you…” he said, with a weak voice. His weary eyes twitching as he glared with disdain at the thing.

Suki's eyes were fixated on a cloud in the sky, his muscles burned from the power he was emitting, truly he had never reached his limits, and as much as it burned him, he knew now exactly what those limits were. That death ball was all that he had, and as the brown haired saiyan pulled his head over the side of a rock pile, Suki could only feel more shame rolling over his body. Such a drastic measure, and yet he had still failed to kill the stupid kid.

"What....super saiyan"

He choked out, breathing heavily as the pain set into his chest. Every fiber of his being was in pain, but his will to fight still burned. He asked "what" but in reality he knew, Suki was casually ignoring the massive hole in the ground his body was now emursed in, and it was more than a little obvious that he had nearly wiped out the entire human race. So asking such a ridiculous question was quiete the ice breaker.

Suki laid his head back, he could sense Nam's energy, he had about as much power as Suki, or for that matter even less. Suki was still in his fourth, deadliest form. At least he could say that much. The saiyan had clearly lost his golden aura, which was something Suki did not plan on provoking out of him.

"You know what...Good fight saiyan"

He said closing his eyes. He couldnt say that he had lost, his track record was clean, but in a way, he was humbled. This little bastard had crippled him in a way no other had been capable of doing before, and in an odd way he respected him for it. However, that respect was quickly shadowed by hate, as was in his nature. Nam was a generally likeable person. But Suki had a kingdom to uphold, he could not give up, not when he had come so far.

Starting with one arm, Suki pushed his torso upwards, followed by his other arm, finally with all of his effort, The beast rolled onto his knee's reaching his hand inside a pocket of Icer flesh. It was as if the creature had slit himself open at the waist, as purple blood slowly dripped down his hand and onto the ground below.

"You...almost had me there...he...hehehe..."

He said chuckling, digging his hand deeper into the open wound he had created.

"But....you...are simply weaker than I am"

He said finally pulling his hand out, and making a painful exhale as he did. Although it would seem mysterious at first, what he had done would become clear soon enough. Obviously Icer's do not where clothing or armor in most cases, Minus his armor, which was currently residing with Aice, the Icer held no clothing, and thus no pockets, so the only way to keep something on his person, was to hide it in the epidermal layer of skin, below his touch armored exterior.

But to make what is a painfully long sequence of gore short, From out of his waist, Touketsuki pulled a small, round bean, covered in purple blood.

Suki wasted no time taking, and biting into it. One might consider this a bit unfair, but Suki didnt care, besides the human had done this on two separate occasions during their fight, so it didnt hurt his pride any to use one on his own.

Unlike Nam, the healing would not be instantaneous, the icer was weak, and had used most of his energy, but the bean's fast acting properties would not be lost on the icer.

Slowly, Suki's back began to arch upward, as he brought himself back to a slouching position on his feet, and then, step by step, began to make his way up the side of the crater towards Nam. He may have been weakened, but being able to stand was one step above what Nam was capable of.

[Nam Reikonaga]

Nam’s eyes widened. It was unbelievable. He was looking at it but he just refused to admit it. He clenched the dirt with his dirtied hands, his face flushed. He… he had a senzu bean… all this time… Nam struggled to get back up, but he couldn’t. It was helpless. He needed another bean –two weren’t enough! He shut his eyes tightly out of frustration. The grip in his so intense that his tail pierced through the skin of his palm and blood dripped.

Touketsuki Yakedo lamely walked little by little towards the fallen saiyan and all he could think about was how he was about to die. Nam didn’t realize it, but in all reality –he truly feared death. What happened? He was so readily able to accept such fate a few moments ago! But now… this guy was standing before him and Nam was shaken all over again. “Damnit!” he cried out, but the strain made him cough violently. He tensed his body, trying to achieve Super Saiyan again, but it was no use. He didn’t even flicker. His power was drained out completely and there was nothing he could do. There were no more miracles left, he used them all!

It seemed like all he could do now was lay on the ground and accepted defeat. Because frankly, he no longer had any options; he didn’t have a choice in the matter. He wasn’t going to turn silver or cosmic gold or anything like that. This… was it…

He heard the sound of Touketsuki’s footsteps as they slowly walked. Tap. Tap… Tap. It got closer every time. There was nobody around who would stop him.

[Deleted]

Trudging along through the dirt, Suki found himself coming back, slowly his body was returning his energy. His tail dragged in the dirt behind him, unable to move on its own. The stress of the fight had been to much for it, and now he felt its recovery taking the longest. But he didnt need it, not for what he wanted to do.

After several minutes of what can only be described as the most epic slow walk ever. Suki made it to his victim. Nam Reikonaga lay unable to move on the ground below him, And suki felt that this was just the moment to say what was on his mind, to a man that wouldnt live long enough to tell someone else about it.

"You know Nam, I must say, I have never before hit my ceiling, I was not lying to you when I said that never before had I found a limit to my power, and whats interesting is today was the first time that I legitimately thought I was going to die. So I want to thank you. You see now I have a new goal, Now that I know where the ceiling is, it will now be my purpose to not only rule over the known universe, but also break that ceiling, and again find myself at unlimited power. Our spat here has taught me that you never know what surprises lurk in even the weakest of trash. I mean even now I find it hard to lift a finger"

He said, bringing his hand to an angle facing Nam, concentrating all of the reserved energy he had built up from the bean.

"But maybe I can lift....just one"

He said, pointing his index finger out, a small red dot forming in front of it. He would fire his death beam into the fighters skull, ending their prolonged combat, and there was nobody around to stop him.

(Serori reserved the next post.)

[Serori Yakedo-Satsumaimo]

Serori had flown away from the battle, seething. Sitting down in a clearing, she had needed to clear her thoughts, trying to figure things out.

'I've had to do this too many times, in just this battle. Its time I really try to delve deep into my mind.'

And the outcome had surprised her. She had stood up, shocked at her sudden realization. She knew what she needed to do, but this wasn't the place she needed to be.

She needed to be with Suki.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


"You know Nam, I must say, I have never before hit my ceiling, I was not lying to you when I said that never before had I found a limit to my power, and whats interesting is today was the first time that I legitimately thought I was going to die. So I want to thank you. You see now I have a new goal, Now that I know where the ceiling is, it will now be my purpose to not only rule over the known universe, but also break that ceiling, and again find myself at unlimited power. Our spat here has taught me that you never know what surprises lurk in even the weakest of trash. I mean even now I find it hard to lift a finger"

He said, bringing his hand to an angle facing Nam, concentrating all of the reserved energy he had built up from the bean.

"But maybe I can lift....just one"

Serori landed beside Touketsuki. She kept her voice soft and calm, yet was unable to hide her trembles of fear.

"Stop, Touketsuki Yakedo."

These bold words rang out in the silence, echoing through the emptiness that used to be consumed by the mountain. Dust did not stir, her voice was not powerful. It was soft, a woman's voice, strong, stern.

"This isn't what you want to do. You need to stop these pointless killings. People are calling you pure evil, but you're really not. You just...I don't know, but you need something. Something is missing from your life, and I think I know what it is."

She took a step forward towards him.

"Touketsuki Yakedo, I love you. You need a queen. You are the ruler of the planet of your race. A strong ruler, capable of protecting them from any source of danger. The strongest in the universe."

She raised her hand, touching his arm.

"Put your hand down Touketsuki Yakedo, and come with me. We will leave for a far away place. You can't kill Nam. That will just complete a circle. Kill him, and everyone will still be after you. Leave him, and you might have a chance of redemption. Killing him solves nothing, just makes more problems. Please, Touketsuki Yakedo. Killing your rivals is just the cowards way out. A true, powerful warlord like yourself doesn't need petty deaths like this. Besides, what's the point of being this powerful, if there's no one challenging enough to flaunt it off at? So just leave now, and come with me, My Lord Touketsuki Yakedo."

[Nam Reikonaga]

The dark clouds had dispersed with the end of their battle and allowed the sun to shine down on the barren land once more. The winds were but a gentle breeze on the ground, picking dust and dragging it to the side. Nam’s eyes were shut tightly. It was going to happen. He was about to die. His opponent had gotten back from the brink of death and was now casting his shadow over the brunette warrior. A single finger aimed at his skull; a purple shining dot of light emitting as he spoke his regards to the fallen saiyan. Good fight? A new goal?

For a second, Nam thought he managed to change the lizard’s ways by simply exchanging fists. He thought Touketsuki’s eyes had been opened to a world he had not considered, and although it was true, they still had very different views towards life. He would continue to pursue his goal of ruling the universe, but he would also train to become stronger. In other words, all Nam accomplished today was to make everything much harder for those who stayed on the living realm while he escaped to Other World.

“Safe your breath!” he cursed, pounding the ground beneath him. He wished he hadn’t. The sudden abrupt motion only made his pain worsen; blood gushed out of his struggling body as he coughed vigorously. His breathing ragged.

Soon after, right when Nam’s life was about to be severed, a second shadow was cast upon him with a soundly thud of landing. A cloud of dust rolled away before fading within seconds. Adjacent to Touketsuki’s the voice of that woman was heard. What’s she doing here? He thought. There’s no way they’d escape, -or was she challenging him? Idiot!

Nam opened his sorrowful eyes and gazed above. The sun blinded the half-saiyan. He could only see the silhouette of both figures standing before him; Touketsuki’s dreadful eyes looking down upon him, and the woman’s slender sensual body closely behind. Nam tried to speak, but every attempt he made only resulted in mouthful of blood. She’s a fool! He thought. ‘Love’ wasn’t going to stop this thing. He had plenty of ‘love’ as a child and he killed those very same beings. The only beings – besides her apparently, who could possibly ‘love’ such a creature regardless of what he was. But there was one point he might buy. The thought of letting Nam live and realize how he was powerless to stop him despite all of the power he possessed. The shame, eating away at the small but potent pride in his saiyan blood; that he had failed everyone.

There was, of course, a catch. Would this… thing, risk the survival of someone this powerful? Who forced him to the pinnacle of his power? Who lowered him to his physical state? Would he take the high road, or was he a coward? Nam seriously couldn’t decide which side to label him as. Touketsuki already made the mistake of playing with his food, and he made sure to express his regrets about it. But would he foolishly do it again just to prove a point?

Then there was the question of this ‘love affair’. How could a lush and attractive young woman like this one get the hots for something so vile and hideous like Touketsuki Yakedo? They weren’t even the same race – no, they’re biological standards didn’t even match at all. Then again, Nam has never been in a relationship himself, which proves of little he knows. It was all such a mystery for him. Unless…

Was she trying to save him?

[Deleted]

The bitch! How dare she intercept his final moment before the kill. Her voice rang through the mountains like a sharp sword ripping through the wind. She had interrupted their fight several times now, and Suki was sick of it.

Turning his head he was prepared to respond, rip her a new one as it were, but she continued speaking, she continued pleading just like every other animal he had slaughtered. Please dont kill him blah blah blah, he isnt worth it blah blah blah, people will hate you blah blah blah, I love you Blah blah....what!?

Suki listened closer now as the saiyan explained her fixation with bestiality in professing her live to the Icer. Was it his blood lust, or perhaps his charming good looks. He had never before had an admirer of this sort, and was reasonably confused, choosing to tone her out now just to look over her. Considering the humanoid outlook she was not a terrible looking creatures. Human's and Saiyans did have a charm about them, the way their skin was so soft and squishy, and the way they had hair, hair was interesting, smooth and in serori's case well kept. Yes, yes perhaps that could work, I mean in reality he had never considered marriage, but then again that had never presented himself.

Tuning back into the conversation, suki was just in time to hear her explain that he would be a coward for Killing nam, and for the first time in his life, Suki realized she was right. Suki respected Nam a lot for both his power, but also his command of such a dark situation, and especially for his loyalty. The only reason Suki even rose from that ditch was to prove he still could, and to prove that he was better than the blasted saiyan.

But was he? I mean really, if it weren't for that bean, he may not be standing now, and in reality Nam was better spirited, he had far more friends, and far greater relationships than any other he had ever met. Suki's only 'friends' were henchmen whom had abandoned him, with the exception of possible Boki and Aice, but certainly they would follow suit.

If suki had really been out for conquer, why not take on the planets leader. He had never faced off against the leader of earth, he had beaten the guardian but that was not even his first target. And he had yet to face King Boliko. No Suki knew that this was not the reason for his conquest. Suki was the youngest of his family, and as he watched his father kneel before other races, and teach his children peace and love, a hatred for it grew in him. The World Trade Organization had been stepped on since the days of Lord Kold, and it was because of friendly diplomacy. But suki had jumped off of the deep end, he had become the opposite of his father in the worst way, and this was no better. In this world he was not helping his planet, or his organization, he was simply spreading fear. And although Suki could not say that he did not enjoy striking fear in their hearts, it was true that his bitterness had been misplaced, and that this cycle of near defeat, pointless skirmish, and even more pointless death would never end until he did.

"I....I'm....."

Speechless Suki couldnt believe the girls words had effected him so much, the death beam faded from his index finger as his hand reached down and grabbed the wrist of Nam, forcefully pulling him from the rubble, and standing him on his feet.

Nam of course would have to make the effort to stand, but assuming he did, Suki would let go, letting the saiyan stand at eye level to him. And so he spoke.

"Human....Saiyan....Nam.... I have been fighting this war incorrectly...I will rethink my strategy...and...come back....one day..."


He said, not sure if he was apologizing, or challenging him again, or threatening him, or what he was doing. His words were genuine, and fairly confusing, but there it was, Nam had been spared, as had the planet earth.

"Serori....Gather what crew plans on returning with us and meet me at the ship, I think the Earth has seen enough of us."

He said turning around, preparing an instant transmission back to his ship. If Nam or serori were to say anything, it would have to happen quick.

[Nam Reikonaga]

Unbelievable. There had been silence between them for almost a full minute when Touketsuki replied. Confused, dilated eyes watched from below as he was lifted up from the ground and placed on his feet with a single hand. Nam was shaken a bit but he managed to keep himself standing as his surprised eyes looked into the others with utter confusion. It worked? He bought that? He couldn’t decide whether to look at the saiyan woman or the changeling standing before him. Was he… apologizing?

Nam was baffled beyond belief. It was almost frightening to see his opponent this way. His mindset was changed just like that and Nam’s life spared. What were they even fighting for? Nam couldn’t even remember anymore. He almost felt like Touketsuki Yakedo wasn’t the enemy. But then… who was? It seemed evident now that he wasn’t the heartless man he appeared to be. In different circumstances, could Touketsuki and Nam have become friends? Maybe… But this didn’t change the fact that he wanted to rule the universe, and that alone was enough to set them apart.

“Why… are you so fed up over ruling the universe? Isn’t your planet enough?” he asked. It just didn’t add up. Why rule the universe when you could rule your planet and form alliances, bonds –make friends. “You know… it’s not too late… If it’s friends that you want, all you have to do is change your ways.”

Nam wasn’t lying. He knew it’d be hard, but Touketsuki could still go back from this. It’d take a while but someday everyone would forget and accept him. Of course, he’d have to deal with people like Zach who just needed a little more convincing. But… Nam would help bring that peace back. Nam could be a friend if he wanted…

It was all so shocking that he still thought it was some sort of trick or joke. Where’s the catch? He tried talking already and it failed. But maybe he was going about it the wrong way; Touketsuki Yakedo didn’t seem like someone who was looking for love or friendship – yet this woman single-handedly made him withdraw with nothing but words.

[Deleted]

Suki began to chuckle, His finger had only just tapped his forehead before Nam finally spoke up, and Suki was not a man of many intimate words, so his response could only be in a cold and devolved manner. The saiyan had gone from dying on the ground, to attempting to convert the Icer like a common missionary.

"My ambitions are none of your concern anymore, I will rule over the entire universe, that much I know, and if you came from my shit hole of a planet you too would want something more"

Taking an ironic look around at the scenery Suki smiled, content with his destruction of the landscape. He had not turned over such a leaf that destruction did not suit his fancy, but its effects were more impressed on his memory now.

"As for friends you are hardly one to give advice super saiyan. Your best friend doesn't know what you are, and your master is no longer playing for your team, so I dont see how anything you say can be relevant."


Suki had determined this in several ways. The first being that Zach and Gurin were in fact alive. There were not so many powers on the planet that were as high as theirs, so the fact that he could still sense them told him that they both had survived his attack. Zach had voiced, rather loudly, his hatred of all alien's and since he was clearly attracted to Nam, there was no way in hell that he could have known that he was not fully human. And his final assertion came from a power far greater than his own. Suki had felt it and said nothing before, but he knew what it was. When his father explained of Gurin's past, and when he met the Kami his thoughts were confirmed, Gurin had jumped in strength using Kami's abilities, that much was proven by the Bikkuri that had been lodged into the chest of his second form. But if Suki remembered correctly, Kami, or Tenshu as he had heard, had split them mentally due to an evil presence, one that any person with coherent ability to sense energy would feel.

"Unfortunately my time here is done saiyan, So pick up the pieces of your pride quickly because you have a few other issue's to handle. Containing your master's power being priority"

He said still chuckling. Suki had come here thinking he was the mightiest warrior in the universe, and in the last hour had felt two energies that surpassed his own. His laughter was not in contempt of Nam, but rather in foolish surrender. Clearly he had been humbled today, but he would work diligently to fix such a dilemna.

"Oh, and you have a visitor, I believe he was for me, but since I will be leaving now you will have to inform him I am gone. Feel free to brag about my defeat as much as you like, I couldnt care less. But do tell King Boliko I said hello, and that our time would come, but not on this planet."

With that Suki waited for no response as his figure began to slowly flicker, and then abruptly stop, causing him to turn around once more.

"Oh dear, and have this"

He said holding his finger out, causing a Senzu bean to appear.

"I won't be needing this ever again, so you had might as well have a go at it."

He said, flicking it at Nam, and then just a second later, disappearing from the area, power level and all.

[Serori Yakedo-Satsumaimo]

Outside, Serori kept her features strong and stern while he talked to Nam, but inside she was sighing in relief. She was exceptionally happy, and very glad she hadn't been turned into a greasy stain in the Earth. Clicking her heels together, she brought her hand to her forelock.

"Yes sir, Lord Yakedo." It was all she could do to make sure her smile didn't play across her face.

As Suki disappeared, she turned away, then back to Nam. He still looked completely demolished, and she felt really bad for him. She let out her inside sigh, and let her smile stretch across her face, before talking to him.

"Nam, you were really brave. I'm pretty sure that I've legitimately changed Suki, and Earth will never see him again. You're really injured, and I just wanted you to know that we have a medic on the ship. You'd make a great recruit, although I would definitely understand if you didn't want to join him. In that case, just tell me what you need me to do to help you."

After she completed her interactions with Nam, she would then go to attempt to gather her friends, though she had her thoughts about their rejoining.

(PL please)

[Nam Reikonaga]

Nam remained silenced as the image of Touketsuki flickered for the last time after finally disappearing. Behind that image was the woman that saved his life. She smiled. Although Nam’s mind was still stuck on the fact that he was given a senzu bean by Touketsuki Yakedo, and his words... He understood what he meant about Zach, which reminded him he still had things to settle with him. But what did he mean when he said ‘your master is no longer playing for your team’? Was he talking about Kami?

“Y-you…” he said, returning back to the present. “…Serori, right? You were pretty brave too… thanks.”

Nam’s eyes were lost in hers, taking one last look before she left. She had long brown hair –like him. Tan skin and ocean blue eyes. He watched silently as her back was turned and she walked away, gripping the bean in his hands.

“I wish you bliss…” he whispered, but probably loud enough for her to hear. Regardless, it was meant as a desire and not something he necessarily wanted her to hear.

After she was gone and there was no sight of Touketsuki or anything related to him, Nam cringed to a sudden sharp pain that charged his chest. He collapsed to the dry land, wary eyes looking at the bean resting on his hand. It seemed the effects of their battle had finally gotten to him. Nam still had things to do, but maybe he could just close his eyes for… just… a little… while… he thought as his eyes suddenly felt heavier to the point he couldn’t resist and his consciousness lay rest to his tortured body.

In this battle, nobody one – but the voice of one saiyan girl and the confessions of her unconditional love for a beast of thick white leather skin. But it wasn’t over. Touketsuki Yakedo’s goal would sooner or later lead him to Nam once more, and the two would battle for dominance yet again.

I’ll see you then…

(I’d like PL and possibly Zenkai with a plot bonus to the side? Also transferring a bean from Suki to Nam? xP)

(PL for Bass too, although I only posted as him once. xD)

You bastard didnt even use the bean

PL, and a non saiyan Zenkai with plot.

[Geurin]

Nam: 6150 X Plot + Zenkai = 15,375
Suki: 4425 X Plot + lesser zenkai = 11,000

Nam had a little higher word count per post for the most part, that is why his turned out higher, that and General zenkai is very low whereas Half Saiyan Zenkai is well...much much higher than that.

But overall a great performance, the fight we had all been waiting for. With a nice twist ending. A must read for the site.
