Incontinuity [Jorlaxl and Caius]

[Serori Yakedo-Satsumaimo]

Serori had just gone to the hospital to get some bloodwork done. The doctor told her that she still had some family, a mother and father, who lived on Panku Island, alone. And a rich as mess uncle, who the doctor didn't know where he lived. Serori went to pay a visit to her parents. Little did she know that she was followed by a Makaioshin, Caius, and a Bioandroid, Jorlaxl.

(The following is just a copy from another post, just for setup. This post is just to set up this thread, and not to be graded. I would like the rest of this thread graded, however. Thanks [For more info on what happened, see wodresurrection.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=sarucity&action=display&thread=1774])

Serori flew over Panku Island. There was a lot of greenery, and she could see little creatures foraging around the underbrush. She had passed a fishing boat, but hadn't even payed it any attention. The powerlevel coming from it was insignificant. She finally located a house on the edge of a water. It had a little home-made leaf shack for a boat, Serori assumed. The doctor said that Serori's parents were the only ones who lived on the island, so it had to be the place. Serori touched down next to the path leading to the door, walked down the path, and knocked.

There was silence for a while, then a scrabbling at the door. Someone spoke.

“Who is it?”

Serori wasn't sure what to say to this. 'The daughter who you abandoned as a baby and sent to live among aliens' just didn't have the right ring to it. She settled with “someone important. I think you should open up, I really need to talk to you.” It was lame, and sounded stupid coming out of Serori's mouth, but it did the trick. The door opened. Behind it was a tall woman, graceful looking, and an exact spitting image of Serori aged 25 years. Her hair was still just as luscious, still as brown. Eyes the exact same hue of brown, a sharp nose...only the slight sign of wrinkles gave away her age. When she saw Serori, she gasped, holding a hand to her mouth, and stepped back.

“Who...who are you?!”

Once again Serori was at a loss for words. The only response she could come up with was “I'm your daughter. I came to Vegeta from Earth nearly a year ago. I've been looking all over for you. Finally, I went to the hospital, had a blood test to locate you.” 'That sounded really stalkerish,' she thought, 'and her powerlevel...I can hardly feel it, it must be so low...maybe my dad will be stronger.' Serori's mother seemed to be in a continuous gasp. Serori reached out a hand. “Is something wrong?” Her mother said nothing, and suddenly flung herself at Serori, wrapped her arms around her, weeping. Serori caught her, and patted her back, not really sure what to do in this situation.

“Oh my God, we thought we'd lost you, I'm so sorry, we gave you to your uncle, and we thought he'd take care of you, we never had enough money, we would have been helpless, look at you, all grown up, I'm so sorry, wait until your dad get's home, I can't believe we sent you to Earth!” This flow of words came out of her mother's mouth. There were more following them, amidst huge, gasping sobs, before Serori's mother finally pushed herself back, still holding Serori's arms, looking at her through her tears, smiling. “Twenty-eight years,” she said. “You've grown up so well...and so strong!...and you still have your tail? But no matter, we can have that fixed. Just wait until your dad gets here...speak of the devil, here he comes right now, he is going to be so happy!”

A boat was pulling in around the cove. Serori caught a sight of her dad. He was big, had a moustache, black hair. Serori recognised the boat he was in as the one she had passed. 'Good God, both of them are so weak! And the house...just a stack of sticks! Are these two people really my parents?!' Her mother ran to her father, shouting about how their long lost daughter had finally arrived just like she hoped she would, and her father beamed at her. When all was said and done, Serori was invited into their house.

They sat on three chairs, Serori facing her parents. They were crudely crafted of wood, with slightly jagged edges. Her parents seemed to be perfectly comfortable, but Serori couldn't find a spot where some part of the chair wasn't digging into some part of her. Her mother kept going on about when Serori had been sent to Earth, how they'd had no money so they'd given her to an uncle, her father's brother, who was a rich eccentric, but he shipped Serori off to Earth, and that her mother's name was Suika and her father's name was Maskumeron, and that they were going to name her Suitopi. She kept going on and on, and Serori had finally stopped listening, and paying attention to other things. 'My father doesn't speak much. I guess that's where I get it from. They are so poor...and so weak.' Serori started to feel a little pang. 'And they gave me away to my uncle because of it. They are the reasons I had to go to Earth, and get made fun of, called names, ridiculed.' She was letting one of her mind's doors open. Anger flowed through this one. 'Twenty-eight years I lived on Earth as an alien, among aliens, I knew nothing of my kind, and all I have to come back to is two weak, puny, poor Saiyan's?'

Her mother finished talking. She had asked Serori if, even after all this, she could forgive them, and move in. Serori stood up.

“You want me to forgive you and move in with you?” She asked. She had put a little bit of an inquiring edge to her voice, to make it seem more believable. The door was slowly creaking open. Both her parents, her dad's arm around her mom's shoulder, beamed at her, nodding vigorously. Serori allowed the door to slam open, anger coursing through her veins.

“Twenty-eight years I lived amongst aliens. Twenty-eight years! Thinking I was one of them, thinking I could somehow fit in, with a tail? I put up with ridicule after ridicule, I stopped going to school. Then I found out I wasn't actually one of them. I was an alien to them. And I knew nothing of my kind. I was outraged. And so I came here, to find my two, weakling parents, who, even after all of this want me to move in with them! And there so poor, they wouldn't even be able to afford to keep me with them!! What are you going to do, give me to my uncle again?! So he can send me off to some alien planet I know nothing about?! Well, you're in for something else then!!” A blue aura had sprung up around Serori, and she drew her katana. Her parents, now with expressions of apalled shock, horror, fear, were backing up.

“Sweetie, you, you have it all wrong, I, we, that is...” Serori cut them off. She had been channeling Ki into the sword, her anger letting her push more into it.

“Save it for your maker.” She swung the sword, and the beam of energy lashed out at them, cutting them up, to their screams. It slammed through them, blood spraying everywhere. When it hit the wall, the wall exploded. Serori had made sure that they were still alive, she didn't kill them. Not yet. She blew off the ceiling. Her parents were making gasping noises, choking noises. They were dying, but not dead. Not yet. Serori flew up, out of the ceiling, readying a Death Ball.

“ENJOY YOUR STAY IN HELL!!!” She let it loose. It was a small one, she wasn't quite strong enough for a huge one, but it was big enough to blow up the house, make a good sized crater in the ground. Her parent's shack was obliterated, their bodies disintegrated. It left Serori drained, and she touched down. She walked to the approximate location of where her parents had been, all cut up. She kicked the ground, and finished with a 'hmph'. Her dead parents weren't good enough for words. Serori shepherded the anger back into the door, and closed it.

[Caius]

Caius and Jorlaxl followed the android for a few days. Something was different about her. The first sign might have been her self-imposed isolation in a psychological and physiological oubliette of her own making following her discovery of her deceased, murdered friends. Or were they ever really her friends? Was she pushing their deaths aside as if they were nothing, or did she simply grieve by pushing herself harder?

Jorlaxl was the first to suggest that her behavior, her displays of emotion, and her evident arrival on the planet by space-pod suggested a very different kind of Saiyan. Caius was having almost as much fun observing her strange behaviors as he did trashing Saru City. This strange Saiyan was different from the others, and most importantly more powerful. Maybe she could be turned to the WTO. A Saiyan ally would complete the WTO's pantheon of warriors, and if she was as pugilistically inclined as some of the other recruits she'd jump at a chance to train with fighters of such caliber.

Or maybe they could just torment the damaged girl with the tales of the murder of her friends and her co-workers before gutting her and leaving her to die in the back streets, devoid of hope and happiness. Caius wasn't sure which he'd enjoy better.

The monotony of observing her broke not too long after the bank robbery, and the Makaio and his newfound friend saw the Saiyan girl break her routine by going to a medical facility. At first, Caius predicted she was feeling either some illness or some psychic trauma from witnessing a murder scene, but she was doing something very different entirely. Trying to find her parents.

This was getting juicy indeed. Jorlaxl, who had reluctantly decided to help Caius stalk the Saiyan, appeared to be getting quite bored. His initial suggestion notwithstanding, the situation was becoming unfun for him. The slightly less level-headed demon was completely intrigued by the entire notion of surveillance in general.

The real fun started when she met her parents, who had apparently abandoned her as a child. Jorlaxl's attentions were drawn by the small, but noticeable spikes in ki from her, obviously mirroring her angry outburst upon finding her noodle shop ransacked. The yelling really woke up the bio-android, and he trained his eyes upon the small house, Caius already glued to the scene as if it were a T.V. drama.

The back wall blew out, and a horrible gout of blood came with it. The girl had gone over the edge. She levitated, and then obliterated the house and her parents with a concentrated ki attack, before calming herself with great effort. Caius was totally engrossed. Had Jorlaxl's pernicious deed sent the Saiyan girl over the edge? Why had she reacted like this? Was she already predisposed to this aberrant behavior?

Just when it seemed she'd reached some modicum of inner peace. Caius let out a loud cackle. He subsided into a series of deep breaths, then unable to hold it in, gave an extended higher-pitched giggle.

"AHAHAHA...oho...aaah...oh my gosh...Ahem...sorry about that but...pffffftttt YOU KILLED THEM AHAHAHAHA I DIDN'T EXPECT THAT AT ALL!"

Caius found the entire situation just a tad too funny for his own tastes. She'd gotten so angry that she took out her emotions by killing her parents? He wiped tears from his face and turned to his comrade, their positions now revealed, as if appealing to him for his opinion.

[Jorlaxl]

This has been an interesting few days. Jorlaxl and Caius have been following an interesting saiyan specimen for quite a few days. She seemed different from the others. Calm wasn't the word, because that's definitely not true. She was perhaps more... civil? That might be it. She didn't lack aggression, or passion, or any of that. She just seemed to go about her business in a different manner, one that seemed to have potential.

Jorlaxl wasn't sure about this, but he thought that maybe she could find a place in the WTO. She seemed to have great power within herself, and that could easily be exploited by lord Suki. However, he didn't know how he would feel about having a saiyan underling. Was he too racist to even allow a saiyan soldier? He didn't know for sure. He supposed that even if he and his friend convinced her to join, Suki could just laugh at them both and kill her for fun.

Not to mention, although he kept this to himself, he always felt that the World Trade Organization lacked a female presence.

At any rate, he and Caius stalked the unaware saiyan for quite a few days, monitoring her, seeing if she truly had potential, or if that power they felt was a fluke. Judging from the fact that she just murdered her parents, he was fairly convinced that it wasn't. Caius was loving every single moment of this. From the surveillance to the murder, he was getting immense pleasure from her deeds.

That was the difference between Caius and Jorlaxl. Although they were both evil to some degree, they had different ways of manifesting it. Caius seemed more chaotic in his dealings, which betray his nature as a makaioshin. Jorlaxl, on the other hand, was more reserved about his doings. He was a thinker, above all. Therefore, all this watching was boring. He would much rather confront her now, and get a straight answer. Finally, the time came.

Following her to what he assumed was her house, Jorlaxl and Caius waited around the perimeter, anxious to see what happened. They had scrounged up a passing semblance of what she was up to, seeing her parents and all. Finding out that she came from a different planet was just hilarious to find out; Caius laughed for hours. Jorlaxl found it quite amusing as well. At any rate, they waited anxiously for her business to conclude. Was she going to let them live? He hoped not. That would have been such an anticlimax.

He was not disappointed. He heard yelling, indeterminate. Then, he heard an explosion, and saw that Serori blew up a wall of the house! How absurd, she can't live in a house like that. Jorlaxl assumed that she has made her choice. His assumption was confirmed when he noticed that her parents were on the ground, gasping for air, with crimson blood on the floor around them.

"This is just too good to be true. Her emotions are so deliciously uncontrollable. Just look!" He pointed, talking to Caius. Suddenly, the roof exploded, showering them both with debris of spackle and the building materials of their house. Flying above them both, Jorlaxl was amazed at the technique she began to employ: the death ball.

Charging it up, she screamed "ENJOY YOUR STAY IN HELL!!!" and then let it loose over her parents. Caius seemed to enjoy their screams quite alot. But Jorlaxl was paying much more attention to Serori. How did she learn the death ball? He noticed that she looked very weak, it seemed that the miniscule death ball drained her power. This would be the best time to act, when she was weak, and vulnerable. He nudged Caius, and nodded. She slowly fell to the ground, and they both started walking towards her, where they were sure to be seen.


"AHAHAHA...oho...aaah...oh my gosh...Ahem...sorry about that but...pffffftttt YOU KILLED THEM AHAHAHAHA I DIDN'T EXPECT THAT AT ALL!"


Jorlaxl started clapping slowly.

"Hello. How have you been?"

[Serori Yakedo-Satsumaimo]

(Sorry this post is short/not good, my brother keeps talking, and I'm in a crowded place, very noisy -.-)

Serori had just killed her parents. She was getting good at holding down her emotions, and forced her anger away. She felt...indifferent to everything. Suddenly she heard an outrageous laugh.

"AHAHAHA...oho...aaah...oh my gosh...Ahem...sorry about that but...pffffftttt YOU KILLED THEM AHAHAHAHA I DIDN'T EXPECT THAT AT ALL!" followed by a very slow clapping. Turning around, she saw a Makaioshin and an Android descend from the clouds, and walk towards her. The Makaioshin was laughing, and the Android spoke.

"Hello. How have you been?" He had a tail, unusual for an android. Also unusual for an android, she could feel his powerlevel. Both he and the Makaioshin had about equal powerlevels, which were greater than Serori's. Serori thought quickly how to respond. These two "men" were definitely stronger than she, so she would have to play it cool, lest she angered them.

"I am...alright. What are you doing here? Did you follow me?" Then she'd remembered the news in Saru City...there had been many fights in the Scorched Plains, and she'd felt the powerlevels coming from them...these two felt similar. "Are you two part of the WTO?" Then she wondered how long they'd been watching. Had they seen her blow up the house? Even if they hadn't, what would they be able to deduce with the huge crater behind her? She hoped like hell they weren't here to kill her for sport.

[Caius]

At the mention of the WTO, Caius pulled himself together and tried to converse with the startled girl like a normal individual. It was hard for him, the fact that this Saiyan had gone from finding her friends dead to killing her parents out of pure rage was just a hilarious story.

The WTO? So you've heard of us? Then you know that your planet is now entirely at the mercy of Lord Yakedo. Or is this really your planet? You make your home out of a space-pod...are you really from Vegeta?

Caius noticed that Saiyans rarely let their emotions get the best of them. He'd seen much over the past few days. The guards and the civilians in the bank had shown little outward emotional reaction to the demon and the bio-android causing a massacre in their midst. This one was markedly more human though. She'd let her anger get the better of her. Or did she want it to get the better of her?

You're going to have to teach me how you do that thing you did with your sword. An impressive energy wave, that was. But back to the point. Who are you, and why aren't you a professional comedian?

[Jorlaxl]

As Caius was questioning the saiyan girl, Jorlaxl went over to the smoking crater behind her, and started looking for survivors. He moved past Serori, mumbling "Excuse me," and started his search. Caius asked about her origin as he was looking over the bodies, checking for a pulse. As he walked closer to the bodies, he was having a harder time determining what body part was where. He didn't need to look any further to find that both of her parents were dead ducks.

Grinning to himself, he walked back to the group just in time to process that she's heard of the WTO. But how? It must of been their impressive power levels that tipped her off. He didn't mean to brag, but he could tell that combined, the World Trade Organization's member's power was much greater than the main forces of the Vegetan military.

As he listened to Caius speak, Jorlaxl decided that now was the time to see where her allegiance truly lay. Smiling to himself, he looked over at Caius, and figured now was the best time. You're going to have to teach me how you do that thing you did with your sword. An impressive energy wave, that was. But back to the point. Who are you, and why aren't you a professional comedian?


This was it. Using his tail at breakneck speed, he wrapped his tail around Serori's torso, catching her arms in it as well, and held her tight. This would be the first time Caius saw his tail. Constricting her, he put his face next to hers, and whispered.

"Listen, saiyan. We are in control around here. Lord Suki is stronger than both of us combined, even if we both showed our full power, which is much stronger than what you see here." He allowed that to sink in before continuing, "You could join us, if you so chose. If you do, then fine. We could use another ally on our conquest. If you choose to stay, then do it knowing that we will be back. And if you are strong enough, you will be sought after, and killed. The choice is yours, monkey."

He looked at Caius and winked.

[Serori Yakedo-Satsumaimo]

At the mention of the WTO, the Makaioshin appeared to pull himself together. He had questions to ask Serori, and held nothing back.

The WTO? So you've heard of us? Then you know that your planet is now entirely at the mercy of Lord Yakedo. Or is this really your planet? You make your home out of a space-pod...are you really from Vegeta? The Android walked past her with a muttered excuse me, as Serori thought about what the demon was saying. They seemed kindly enough, if that was the right way to put it. And she honestly had nothing to lose with telling him the truth.

"I have heard of the WTO, they are all over the news here. Yes, I've heard that Lord Yakedo controls many planets around the galaxy. This is indeed my planet, though I was sent to Earth when I was just a babe. That's why my home is a space pod. I am originally from here, but I'm not really sure what I call my home."

While the Android kept snooping around the smoldering ruins of the shack, the demon continued talking spiritedly to Serori. You're going to have to teach me how you do that thing you did with your sword. An impressive energy wave, that was. But back to the point. Who are you, and why aren't you a professional comedian?

This made Serori laugh. A professional comedian? Where did he get this from? The last thing she was was comical. She ignored that point, and went on to state: "I am Serori Satsumaimo. And thank you, I spent a month trying to teach myself that. A...friend...no, more an acquaintance, someone I used to train with, showed me how to do it, but never got around to teaching me. He was weak, so I left him." Then, suddenly, something snaked around Serori's torso and arms with a blinding speed. She struggled briefly, before realising it was the tail of the Android. 'Definitely not any normal Android,' she thought to herself. Her anger began to rise, before he leaned over and whispered in her ear.

"Listen, saiyan. We are in control around here. Lord Suki is stronger than both of us combined, even if we both showed our full power, which is much stronger than what you see here." He allowed that to sink in before continuing, "You could join us, if you so chose. If you do, then fine. We could use another ally on our conquest. If you choose to stay, then do it knowing that we will be back. And if you are strong enough, you will be sought after, and killed. The choice is yours, monkey." Serori let her anger subside. A chance to join the WTO? She'd heard that they were some of the strongest warriors in the galaxy, stronger even than the king of Vegeta. And as for Suki...stronger than both of her captors combined? A chance to join the strongest, to help her get stronger...this is what she had been waiting for. Finally, life was doling out something swell. She harbored much resentment to being called 'monkey,' but stored that away for later use.

"I will gladly join you in your conquest of the planets. After all, even if I didn't want to, it seems I don't have much choice," she said pointedly. "And besides, the strongest of the strong, having that title to your back? I'm surprised more people haven't jumped right on an offer like this. And as for Lord Suki...I'm assuming he's responsible for the two pillars of purple? If so, he is indeed very powerful. I would definitely like to meet him as soon as the opportunity arises. Now, sir false android, would you please remove your tail from me?" She meant this term not in a demeaning tone, but more a questioning one, as he looked like an android, but did not have the characteristics. Jorlaxl might notice this, and let her know what he really was.

[Caius]

The Saiyan identified herself as Serori Satsumaimo. A traditional Saiyan name, despite her upbringing on Earth. Caius still found her quite the funny character, even though she refused to acknowledge her own natural talent for making others (others being specifically Caius himself) laugh. But there were many things Caius found funny that others didn't. He thought she'd make an interesting pet...or if she proved herself capable of the strength she'd displayed earlier, maybe she could be a useful ally. Or as Caius would most definitely have it, tenure comedian for the WTO. He was sure Suki would appreciate the humor.

Jorlaxl went to inspect the wreckage, and after searching for a short while, or maybe he found what he was looking for, he came back, and for the 2nd time, surprised Caius with a trick he hadn't seen yet. A musculatured appendage emerged from the bio-android's back, and wrapped around the Saiyan girls midsection, pinning her arms.

"You could join us, if you so chose. If you do, then fine. We could use another ally on our conquest. If you choose to stay, then do it knowing that we will be back. And if you are strong enough, you will be sought after, and killed. The choice is yours, monkey."

Serori appeared receptive to Jorlaxl's suggestions, and then voiced in the affirmative. Of course, they'd have to present her to Lord Suki and ask for his approval first, but if she was truly interested in joining, Caius didn't think Suki would mind.

"Jorlaxl! You never told me you had a tail! And Serori, we welcome you to our fold. We'll have to ask Lord Suki for permission for you to join up with us first, but why don't you show us your full power, first? I'd like to get some measure of your true fighting strength."

Caius looked forward to her acceptance of his offer. He was sure Jorlaxl would also like to see what this strange Saiyan was capable of.

[Jorlaxl]

Jorlaxl was glad to hear that his words were well received, and he was relieved that she caught the true meaning in them. He didn't want to kill her, he just wanted to make sure she wouldn't explode at him. He didn't want all of her power to be on him at once, especially when he wasn't completely prepared. Uncoiling the tail from her gently, he said, "Sorry about the tail, Serori. hope it wasn't too uncomfortable." He grinned, and looked at Caius as he was speaking.

When he mentioned Suki, Jorlaxl spoke up. "Caius! Do you think Suki would so lightly add a saiyan to his repertoire of henchmen? He just finished killing their leader, and seems to hold resentment towards them. However, I guess we'll just wait and see."

He stood by Caius, examining the saiyan. She didn't look too bad. Definitely passable. She seemed quite confused over his race, so Jorlaxl decided to enlighten her. He looked her in the eyes, and started: "Pleased to meet you, Serori. Now, I am what's called a bio-android. As you could ascertain, I was created in a lab. Not with machinery, no, but with genetics. You see, I'm a culmination of the best parts of all the prominent races of the known galaxy."

He was delighted to explain his inner machinations to people, as he was quite proud of it. He started pacing back and forth before continuing. "I have the Saiyan's Zenkai, which I'm sure you're familiar with. I have the Icer's durability, which is what Suki is. As such, I can take hits harder than normal. I am also able to breathe in space. There is a race I'm sure you've never heard of called Namekians, and I have their ability to regenerate. Yes, I'm basically the perfect warrior." He liked giving people the idea that he was arrogant. That way, they could see weaknesses that weren't there.

He finished just in time to hear Caius ask about her battle prowess, and he was more than happy to agree with him. Now we could see her abilities!

"Oh yes, go ahead. Show us your full power."

[Serori Yakedo-Satsumaimo]

Serori listened intently as Jorlaxl explained his makings. A being with the combined abilities of different beings? He seemed to be the perfect warrior, capable of winning any fights. Serori had never heard of such a thing, but did not argue.

"Why don't you show us your full power? I'd like to get some measure of your true fighting strength." This came from Caius, and Jorlaxl wholeheartedly agreed.

"Oh yes, go ahead. Show us your full power."

This took Serori by surprise, she was almost wiped from the death ball, though she had had time to gather her energy during their conversations. But still, they wanted to fight her? Both of them were much past Serori's own powerlevel, it would be nothing to them. And besides, she was still training herself to tap into her emotions to use them to fight. She'd need them available before she can push more into herself. She voiced her thoughts.

"Uh, right now? Against both of you? I'm not sure...you are both, so much more powerful than I..." 'I need to impress them though...show them I'm stronger than they think.' "But, if it's to assess my abilities, I can try..."

Serori closed her eyes, trying to envision the anger she had just felt when she murdered her parents, and......yes, there it was. The feeling rushed through her again. She was beginning to enjoy this power, as her blue aura showed up startlingly quickly, little flashes of silver mingling with the blue. It was coming much easier now. Maybe soon she'd be able to do it without a thought.

Her kaioken activated as the anger pulsed through her. But this wasn't her normal anger, it appeared to be a...fun, anger. A rage for power. The Makaioshin had asked her to teach him her blade technique, and the false-android (she knew he was a bio android now, but she liked that term, and hoped every time she used it, Jorlaxl wouldn't take offense) had said he could take a hit. So she pushed some Ki into her katana, swung it at Jorlaxl, releasing the energy, and using the momentum of the sword swing, spun, aiming a kick at Caius. She knew they could both take it, as she wasn't able to use her full power, being tired from the death ball, and because they were stronger than she. Serori was going to give them her all, and hoped they would not do the same, but give her something to go for. (IE don't go all out, but don't go easy either, in case that didn't make sense)

[Caius]

"Uh, right now? Against both of you? I'm not sure...you are both, so much more powerful than I..."

Serori thought about this for a short while, before closing her eyes and taking a deep breath. Caius saw her ki build up about her center first, before spreading as an aura to her limbs and extremities. First, her aura sparked blue, with silver flashes to it. She was definetely stronger than the average Saiyan.

Caius's approval of her strength was quickly replaced by amazement as she displayed the ability to channel her ki in such a manner that it multiplied her fighting level, similar to Jorlaxl's technique and Caius's own Demonic Aura. If Caius's own senses were to be trusted, it scraped the 15000s. Impressive, to say the least.

She opened her eyes, and looked at the demon with something of a power-hungry gleam in her eyes. She'd fit in at the WTO, all right. She drew her blade, and used the same technique she'd used on her parents to fire a blast of ki at Jorlaxl, then continuing her rotational momentum, she sent a high kick towards Caius's head.

The demon saw her momentum, and upon seeing the muscles in her thighs flex, he knew the kick was coming. At what might have seemed to be the last second, he reached out with his left hand and grabbed the Saiyan's right leg. Surprisingly, he felt her strength almost make his arm give way at the elbow. She was indeed as strong as Caius thought she was.

He wrapped his hand around the other side of her leg, and pulled it towards him. He crouched down as he took a step towards her, planted one knee on the ground, took hold of her leg with his other hand, picked her up, and threw the Saiyan towards Jorlaxl.

[Jorlaxl]

The saiyan girl started charging, focusing her ki, and Jorlaxl was ready. The ki blast came right for him, and Jorlaxl deflected it with a quick swipe of his hand. He redirected it at Serori, who seemed to be flying at him at a great speed. He saw Caius, and saw it was he who shot her toward him. The ki blast that she shot at him went flying toward Serori, and they were on a course to collide into eachother.

Jorlaxl laughed wholeheartedly as the events unfolded. He wasn't ready to show her his fighting style. Not yet.

((Sorry for the super duper short post D:))

[Serori Yakedo-Satsumaimo]

As Serori turned to kick at Caius, instead of making an impact, she felt her leg caught. The arm gave slightly, but strengthened up again, and then her other leg was taken. She was picked up, and thrown at Jorlaxl, who had blocked her Ki strike, and aimed it at Serori. There was nothing she could but take the hit. She landed on the ground, hard. In a mere matter of seconds, the two had managed to get her down. They were definitely as powerful as she thought they were. And if Suki was even more powerful...She had to impress, or they might kill her where she stood, or lie, at the moment.

Beaten and bruised from her Ki blast, she stood up, shaking. Her Kaioken deactivated, and her powerlevel dropped down to 5000. She was significantly weaker than she would like to be for this fight, but nevertheless, had to do her best. She sheathed her sword. She didn't need it broken. She wouldn't set up a defensive stance. If she relied on retaliating after one of them attacked, since there were two, the other would have a free shot, making it pointless. But if she put both of them in front of her, then maybe only one could take a shot at a time...

Mind made, Serori took a defensive stance, right leg forward, left foot making an "ell" to her right but back a bit, fists raised in front of her face, on the balls of her feet, ready to move, and waited for the next attack.

[Caius]

Caius summoned his katana to his side, and it stood in its sheath. He placed one hand on his sheath in a relaxed gesture he was fond of, one that both enabled him to quickly draw it and display a false weakness to his opponent. His other hand swept outward in a vaguely arrogant inviting manner. She had strength, but her combat skills required refinement. He was sure that with training, she could unlock her potential. General Rensou Hiruen of the Vegetan Army was a testament to what a Saiyan could become, with determination.

That was only slightly disappointing. You displayed great power when we first sensed you. Possibly the strain of your recent experiences has left you under the weather. I have a proposal. Rather than draining it all fighting us, why don't we go and have a bit of fun?

He turned to Jorlaxl and raised an eyebrow. He knew the bio-android was ready for more action, he'd been bored throughout the entire process of following the wayward Saiyan girl. He'd also been quite the zeni-pincher lately, maybe getting his hands on some more would be a welcome morale boost for him. Caius himself knew he'd like to try causing more chaos in Saru City.

[Jorlaxl]

When Jorlaxl absentmindedly deflected the ki blast, he was met with a feeling of drollness and boredom. It's been too long since his life was in danger. He loved the thrill he got when he was fighting for his life, and he hasn't felt it since his fight with Endive. He didn't want to slow down one bit. He kind of hoped that Endive was training at her best to meet them all on Namek. Jorlaxl thought of all of that as Serori fell to the ground, obviously outclassed by Suki's men.

When Caius offered her the chance to go on some Vegetan Shenanigans, his ears basically perked up immediately. He needed some more money, as he was looking to purchase something very particular and unique: weighted armor. He saw that his lord had some, and not even the best kind. If he had that armor, it was advertised that his training would be almost twice as effective. Something that useful had to be obtained as soon as possible.

Jorlaxl said, "I'd be more than happy to help you to cause a little chaos in this hellhole. If you two are interested, I heard of a museum here on Vegeta. Yeah, imagine that; artwork that was Vegetan made. Anyway, some of it is quite valuable, and will certainly fetch a pretty penny on the market. Interested?"
