Nilons

OOC: I'll post a sumry for those that don't want to read this.

IC: I slowly got out of the bed Michio put me in. It was the same bed I used when I was training with the others here. I walked around the room. I looked at the few things I set around the room. My skirt was in the same place I had left it, two years ago. The objects layed around the room, so care free. It's a wounder I ever new where anything was. I had been a fighter may years and still was. But the room wasn't mine any more, it had belonged to a difrent Nilons. Nilons the fighter not Nilons the planet killer. I'm a difrent person now. But now maybe I can forget the guilt of my actions and go back to the way I used to be.

I changed out of the remains of my armor which was a shirt and a thick pair of pants. I threw them into a corner hopeing to never see them again. I then put on my old skirt. I hated pants always have for what ever reason. Then I grabed my old black bra, a good luck charm of mine. Then I fished into my half unpacked, for any shirt. I found a white shirt and put it on.

"I feel better allready." I walked over to a full length mior in the corner. I looked at the reflection from top to bottom. I had the same blue eyes. My hair was a little longer now, if only an inch or two. My waist wasn't as thin as it once had. Prehaps the child was showing. Then I came to my tail. Prehaps the one constant reminder of my guilty past. But thats not what was on my mind. "I don't no why it hurt so much. He grabed my tail and all the suden I was in to much pain to move. Oh well, I feel fine now."

I walked out of the room, to where Michio was standing out side. 'Shouldn't you be in bed?' "I feel fine." He turned back around to face the earth far below. He gazed down, he was thinking of something. 'Nilons.... I should of known you where alive. But I didn't, I'm sorry.' I layed down and looked up at the Sky. "How, could any of you know." 'We gathered the dragon balls. 7 balls that allow a person to make a wish. We wished for you to come back to life but, the dragon told us "Your wish can not be granted." but before it siad why, Piccolo died.'

Okay, apearently my eleged death and Piccolos actaul death have taken there toll on Michio's mind. "Okay, I think I'll go home now." I walked back to my room so I could get my capsuls.

In my room I reached for my capsule case. "Huh, wheres my case." I looked around the room for a while. "Here it is." I fliped open the lid. Now wheres my plane? My plane, its not in here. Where is my plane? I'll take my copter for now.

Sumry

Nilons thinks Michio is slightly nuts after he told her of the dragon balls.

Nilons, knows the plane Ski took is gone and she will kick him in the nuts when she finds out who took it.

She is going to use her helicopter to go back to her old home.

 

[Kelson]

Kelson attempts to cut off Zeo's speech with a powered fist to the jaw, to be followed up with a mad scramble of power balls.

Zeo will die.

 

[bandman2000]

OOC: Geez guys, everyone seems to have messed up somewhat with the chronology and itching to kill each other... why me? Looks like I should try to restore the continuity of the thread...Edit OOC:Oh and Cats, if you could, please shape your last post so that just as you're about to take off, I come back with the other three meatheads? I know I'm asking a lot, but as I was writing this there were a couple more posts that sort of screwed up this one. Please?

IC: I get Nilons to her room in the Lookout. Ski had already come by with Laos and put him inside as well. Kelson and Zeo were AWOL and I was a bit stressed. This day just seemed to be getting more out of control by the second.

I let Nilons get changed, even though I was hoping that she would stay inside for a while and rest. When she came out we talked a bit then she made her way back to her room to get her extra capsules. I grabbed her arm to stop her.

"What are you doing to me?"

'Trying to make sense of everything right now. I don't want you to leave just yet.'

"Excuse me?" She seemed a little insulted by this remark.

Same ol' Nilons after all...

'Look, just please don't leave just yet. We all need to talk and sort all this out before everyone starts trying to kill each other or taking off for the Four Winds. For two years everything's been pretty much peaceful and controllable, now I find out that the death of one of my friend's is a lie and she is in fact with child. The accused killer of said friend is now supposed to be an ally and some other guy comes in to take both back to some Overlord that I HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT AT ALL!!! I don't know what Piccolo would've done about this, but I think we all need to take a damn "Sake Break" and figure all this out.'

"Michio..."

'Look, after what happened in North City two years ago, I swore I would never needlessly take a life again or allow anyone else to do it as well. Ski beat me to the punch with that Index guy and I'm a little saddened because he lost his life so needlessly. I won't let the others do it to themselves yet. If we're supposed to be working with you and Zeo, I want to know everything and it would be nice for the others to be told in the same room as well. So please... don't leave. I'll get the others here and you can explain everything to us. Promise me you won't ok?'

Nilons looked down at her feet. This obviously weighted down on her hard, but she nodded her head ever so slightly. I took that as a yes.

'Ok, just hang tight. I'll be back.'

I ran outside and powered up. I could sense very easily the three powers of Kelson, Ski and Zeo. I jumped into the air and took off without descending the tower so as I could have a "Bird's eye View." After a few minutes of flying, I could see the three of them on the ground. Zeo was fighting against Kelson, but he looked really tired due to the excessive use of the Kaioken and Ski seemed ready to join in any second, even if it meant 2-on-1. I came in over them then stopped just above. I took in a breath and yelled at the top of my lungs...

'STOP THIS AT ONCE!!!'

They all stopped in their tracks and looked up at me. I came down in the midst of them and used myself as a barrier between Zeo and my two comrades.

Ski: "Michio, get out of the way."

Kelson: "Yeah, we have a score to settle with Zeo."

'No you DON'T! Nilons is ALIVE and recuperating right now at the Lookout. Your needs for a vendetta don't exist anymore so Power down now.'

I looked straight at Zeo next.

'I don't know you that well. But Nilons seems to think that you're worthwhile to fight with, not against. For right now, I'll believe her but you need to power down now too.'

They all seemed to be belligerant and didn't power down.

'DO IT NOW! ALL OF YOU!'

By this time I had turned my back on Zeo, giving him a chance to take me down. He came in and before I could block he punched me square in my back, knocking the wind out of me and leaving me on the ground. Ski and Kelson saw this and start attacking 2-on-1 against Zeo. I try to get breathing again, but I'm struggling.

Gotta stop this now. Must stop fight.

I get up to my feet after a few seconds and getting my breath back. I then finally get the epiphany that had eluded me so far these past couple years. I get the concentration I needed. I start powering up more and more then I say the magical word..

'KAAAIII-OOOO-KEEE-NNNN'

A red aura surrounds me which changes my color to different shades of red and my power level goes up to about 35K. I fly straight at Kelson, getting my right fist ready and I hit him square in the jaw. In his weakened state after his Kaioken, he goes flying 20 feet and lands on his back. Ski sees this and tries to react but I grab his staff, impale it in the ground then swing myself around to plant both my feet into his chest, sending him 15 feet away and to the ground as well.

Zeo is another matter. He now had the time to get ready for my attack so when I jump at him, he sidesteps me and swings his right elbow down to take out my spine. He connects and makes me hit, but I then twist myself on my left arm and use my legs to sweep his legs out from under him. He starts to fall on his face, but he pushes off his hands and does a somersault to land on his feet away from me.

I get back up and try to finish it.

'Kaioken - Times 2!'

I get even more powerful, getting up to about 70k. All three of them can feel my power increase exponentially. I use my extra power and speed to then create an afterimage of myself. Zeo still watches it, but I then make another one to his right. He sees the new one while I make another one to his left and closer to him. By the time he sees the third one, I'm up in front of him and with one punch to his gut, I send him flying into the air, 35 feet away and he lands on his back, with I'm sure a hurting concussion.

After all this, I finally power down from the Kaioken and back to 14k. I walk towards the three of them.

'By the Gods, I swear you three won't listen to anything unless you're knocked on your ass! Now listen here and listen good: There's more going on here than just a need for a vendetta or just for some fun. Strange things have been going on today and I need some info and some time to figure all this shit out. Now I'm telling you guys; Stop fighting and power the hell down. Once you've all done that, you all will come with me to the Lookout so we ALL can be informed and figure out why this is going on in the first fucking place.'

OOC: I would like it if you guys would do as I say, even if just for a moment so that we all can be told what's going on for the new story arc. Thank you for indulging me.

 

[Dark Warrior]

Laos

The first thing Laos became aware of was a tiny ray of light. Then a splitting pain in his head. And then the splitting pain all over his body. And then the light stretched and ebbed, and his eyes blinked open.
"A-a-argh..." was all he could say as he used a hand to feel all the way down his body. He was in a lot of pain, but, thankfully, he didn't think he had any broken bones.
^All this training must be paying off, then.^ he thought with just a little satisfaction.
He then sat up and hoisted himself off the bed (This process took him a good 3 minutes) before hobbling out towards the lookout.

Nilons

OOC: Bandman no need to edit Your post could of happened before I even opened the copter. Seeing how I didn't do that in my post.

Next, Michio had to go past 36k. Nilons right now is the second strongest at 17k. How strong is Zeo supose to be. He hadn't even gone into his highsyain form and he is at an eaqual power? No offense but that is not all that likely. Then again he probably is just good at defending himeself.

Next, athough I would like all three of the remaining carecters to stop fighting and come to the look out, I will fallow Bandmans good example and not force them by posting there arival.

IC: I walked out with my copter and was about ready to open it, but then Michio grabed my arm out of no where. I was a little worried, I may be stonger then him but I don't want to hurt him.

"What are you doing." 'I'm trying to figure out whats going on and don't want you to leave right now.' "Excuse me." I said pulling my arm back to me.

Poor, poor Michio. I feel sorry for him. Maybe I should tell him "there is no such thing as dragon balls and it isn't possible to grant wishes." Yes I'll tell him so. "Michio..."

'Look, after what happened in North City two years ago, I swore I would never needlessly take a life again or allow anyone else to do it as well. Ski beat me to the punch with that Index guy and I'm a little saddened because he lost his life so needlessly. I won't let the others do it to themselves yet. If we're supposed to be working with you and Zeo, I want to know everything and it would be nice for the others to be told in the same room as well. So please... don't leave. I'll get the others here and you can explain everything to us. Promise me you won't ok?'

I looked down at the ground. Where the hell did that come from it has absolutly nothing to do with me leaveing. Should I say what I was going to, or should I wait here for him to return? I'll wait it will be easier to subdo him if the others are here.

...Five minutes later...
Laos walked out. "Laos, what happened to you?"

 

[Dark Warrior]

Laos

Laos stumbled a little, before falling to one knee. Nilons tried to help him up, but he gestured for her to leave him. He stood up and slowly his eyes met her.
"Nilons...? Is... is it really you?" he asked, rubbing his eyes as if to make them stop lying to him. He took away his hands, but she was still standing there, looking at him with a weird look on her face.
"It is you...! Damn it, what the fuck has happened?" he asked.

 

[cats]

Nilons

IC:

Laos saw me then fell to one knee. He must be more exasted then I thought. I moved over to help him up, but then he gestured me back. He slowly gathered the concentration to stand.

'Nilons? Is it really you?' No it's not. 'It is you Nilons... Damn it, what happened?' I should tell him of every thing.

First, I was tricked into going with Zeo. Then I met Mark, the master mind that sent Zeo to earth. I spent three months training on that planet. He transformed me from a fighter, to a warrior. Then he sent, to a planet... where I killed every one. But it didn't end there I then wnet to another planet and destroyed it. The enitire thing. I did this up until two months ago. Thats when I had the operation that made me pregnet. The entire reason for that is so Mark would have a child to train from birth. Some one to make into the perfect warrior. Another sole to take the inocents from, like me, like Zeo. And... And I was going to go threw it too.

My eyes where burning and red I couldn't hold back my tears any more. "I'm not the same Nilons.... I'm no longer inocent. I've comited to many crimes now. I've killed millions of men... women... and even children." I did die that day. Nilons is dead the only thing here is a shell of what I was.

OOC: Don't worry Nilons will feel much better after kicking Ski in the nuts.

 

[Dark Warrior]

Laos

Suddenly Laos felt very uncomfortable, and he began to shift his weight from one foot to the other.
"Um... that's not exactly the answer I expected." he said with a nervous smile, trying to make a joke of her response. Damn, this was serious, how could you laugh now, you idiot?
"I'm sorry, that was stupid." he said again, reaching up to run a hand through his hair. "I guess we have a lot of catching up to do... but first, where are the others?" he asked, his senses reaching out now in an attempt to find the other's power sources. But his mind was a bit foggy at the moment, and the concentration required made him wince in pain.

 

[Kelson]

Laying on the ground, his aura slowly beginning to fade, Kelson saw the light grow about Michio's body...then it all became dark...pitch black...unyielding to light and threatening to the mind. After a few more seconds, Kelson passed from the world (of the conscious...didn't think I would die just yet did ya?).

The aura about him faded and a trail of blood left the side of his lips. Were he to wake right then, he'd feel a badly bruised jaw on his face, despite his powering up it seemed he all his powers were useless.

OOC) Btw, I believe Kelson and Michio woulda been the same power level...as he did with Laos, Kelson actually would have attacked Michio so... -shrug- too late now though.

 

[Dark Warrior]

OOC: Well, yeah, but then Kelson had had the kaioken activated for some time... he would have been physically drained.

 

[Phoenix]

Well Ski is not too far from Michio powerlevel and he punked me out too. Humph figures y'all would go out and make my character seem like a candyass again

 

[Phoenix]

Ski in "Battling Cleanup"


I saw Kelson and Zeo go at for a while but Lord knows I never had any patience so I jumped in and attacked Zeo. He may have had the upperhand against Kelson but with both Kelson and myself he was overmatched. It was only a matter of time before me and Kelson overwelmed him. I could practically taste victory. Finally the danger that Piccalo predicted would be over. Finally the nighmares of the world's hambringer of destruction would finally be gone. Finally the looking over my back every second of the day would be over, because Zeo would be dead and the horrific spectre would stop.

I backed up for a second and began to charge up to release a big time Kammaehamaeha wave. However just when I began to gather enough energy, Michio flies by and yells "'STOP THIS AT ONCE!!!", Thus completely fucking up my concentration and making me lose the energy I was gathering for a Kammaehamaeha wave. Looking at Michio with a look of pure contempt and growled out a warning. "Michio get the fuck out of the way."

When he replied that Nilons is alive at the Lookout I wanted to say "Duh Jackass. I was there when you took her there. Instead I just raised my energy level back to battle mode. Nilons is very important to me but these dreams are possibly glimpses into the future and according to those dreams there was a dark and dangerous evil that was going to destroy every life form on this planet unless he is stopped and dammit with Zeo having this much power. He had to be the Hambringer of Destruction.

Before I could attack Zeo hit Michio in the back and knocks him several feet away. Reaching behind me I remove my staff and extent it and attack Zeo at the same time Kelson did. Once again the 2 of us set out to annihilate Zeo but behind me I heard someone yell out 'KAAAIII-OOOO-KEEE-NNNN.'

Turning around just in time I saw Michio lay out Kelson and head toward me. I did not have enough time to raise my power level, hell I had barely enough time to attempt to blow and counterattack. I attempt to try to knock him out but somehow his speed was so fast that he disarms me and kicks me in the chest sending me flying. That sonovabitch. Wiping the little trickle of blood from across the side of my mouth, I was even more pissed than I was before. Gee I hardly see that jackass for two years and now he turns on people he called friends.

The madder I got the more powerful I became. It was one thing to attack someone head on, however it is another when you attack your friends/teamates from behind. That action has no honor.

I suddenly felt Michio's power rise exponentially, however I remained unimpressed. That fool wouldn't he realize by now it is not how much power you have it is how you wield it.

Somehow he managed to get the drop on Zeo and knock him a few feet away from me and Kelson. I was just about to get up do irrepairable damage to my *ahem* friend when he launches into a tirade about strange shit and needing time figure shit out. Personally I did not give much of damn what he was talking about. I had a mission and I will be damned if Michio or someone else stops me. Focusing my energy, I make my staff remove itself from ground and come to me. Giving a look of disgust at Michio I explode toward the Lookout. Fuck him. The only thing I am going to do is check on Nilons, then I am going back to Crystal. Let the others save the world, it is not that important to me anymore. The only thing that matters anymore is my family.

 

[bandman2000]

Damn!

OOC: Ok, I seemed to have made things worse. Not exactly how I was hoping things would've gone, but guess I'll have to deal with it anyhow. First off, I need to set some stuff straight.

Phoenix - I never intended to make you a "Candyass" as you put it. I had only intended to have you all stop fighting, that's all. I didn't say you were knocked out, just on the ground. If I insulted you, I apologize.

As for power levels Cats et. al., if I remember correctly about the Kaioken, it doubles your power then with every increase in the Kaioken level, it increases exponentially. 15k+Kaioken=30k 30k+Kaioken x2=60k (give or take a few thousand.) Correct me if I'm wrong please.

IC: Ski had gotten up by now and tore off towards the Lookout with a look of disgust directed squarely at me. Obviously well-warrented in his mind. I had powered down to normal by now and went over to Kelson. He seemed out of it.

Damn, it was too much for him. He must've been in the Kaioken longer than anything I've heard of. Better get him back to the Lookout as well.

I pick up Kelson and sling him over my shoulder while grabbing hold of his ankles to make sure he didn't slip off. I go to Zeo who seemed to have gotten up by now and didn't seem too out of it. I walk right up to him.

'Hit me again, and I will take you out myself.'

He just looked at me with a smug look on his face, almost like a Poker player telling someone that they're bluffing and calling said bluff.

'I have no idea how you act other than how you did two years ago and right now. Normally, I would've helped Ski and Kelson kick your ass into the next century.'

"Well why didn't you?"

'Because Nilons said that we can trust you and that there is something out there more dangerous than you. For now, I'll go on that info and deal with you accordingly. Now, if you want to see Nilons and help her explain what the hell this "New Evil" is, then come with me to the Lookout. I swear as long as you're there, no one will attack you. But I'll leave that decision to you. I need to catch Ski before he takes off to God-knows-where and hopefully show him that he can trust me.'

I start running towards the Lookout and after a couple steps, I jump up and take off with Kelson. I can feel Ski burning atmosphere around him with the speed he's going at. I could only hope that Nilons could keep him there until I got there with Kelson. Eventually, I could feel Ski make it to the Lookout, but I could feel that Laos and Nilons were there.

Good, Laos should hopefully keep him from going too.

A couple minutes later I finally make it and land with Kelson in tow. Laos, Nilons and Ski all look at me. A lot of emotions are flashing through their expressions as I'm sure. I walk up to the three of them and let Kelson down gently.

'Mr. Popo! Get the Stimulant!'

The short black Gentlemen's Gentleman comes up to the 5 of us with a glass of steaming liquid and hands it to me. I put it to Kelson's lips and try to get him to drink the natural stimulant in the hope that it would help him break out of his unconsious state.

As I'm doing that, I stare at the three of them.

'Ok, now everyone, none of you are going to leave until I get some answers:

Ski - Why the hell are you so gung-ho about taking out Zeo when it's obvious that the need to kill him is null and void?

Nilons - Who or what is this Evil we need to help you stop and what's happened to you these past two years?

Laos - How you feeling man?

 

[Kelson]

A minute after the stimulant is introduced to his lips, Kelson is fully awake...though his eyes remain closed and he feigns sleep. Obviously they have captured him...Michio must have been converted, just like Laos had. Deep down, Kelson hoped Laos was alright...he had never blasted him that hard in their training though.

Attempting to hide it, Kelson began to power up...he wouldn't let them hold him any longer. They had taken Nilons last time and, apparently, messed up her mind. Who knows what it is they have now, but Kelson would be damned if he'd let them defeat Earth's defenders so easily. And speaking of damned...the pain he was starting to feel was evoking mentally damning swears.

 

[cats]

OOC:

Phenix, Ski by no means are a candy ass. Ski blew the shit out of a 20k power. That must of used some power. Then Ski got hit by a person with a 30k power. A punch Ski didn't expect. Now had you been in a kayoken or at the high sayain level. Then your right, Ski is a weakling. But those wernt the case, any carecter save Zeo (I figure Zeo at 26k) would defenitly be knocked back.

Michio your power thing may be right but the higher the power the less efective it must become and that also go's with further levels of it. Example 14k to 28k level2 28k to 50k. The second one is no longer a double other wise kayoken*10 would take you up to 14336k. That could of easily beaten Friza, but Vegeta was able to survive it.

Finnaly is Kelson going to go comando on us or something?

I'll try to post latter today.

 

[Phoenix]

Naw it wasnt the fact that you beat me. It is the fact that you beat me and Kelson with two moves. I mean nothing personal but if we were almost you equal as far as power levels. I mean it is kinda demeaning to know that me (another Saiyan) and Kelson (supposed to be the world's strongest human) got beat with 2 moves (1 each) by someone that was close to our equal. Nothing personal but come on.

 

[Dark Warrior]

OOC: Well, my opinion is you're all getting a bit too serious about what should/could/would happen. First off, if the basic laws of ANYTHING were followed on any Literotica posts, I'd be surprised. Second off, this is DRAGONBALL for gods sake. People may do weird stuff and just plain stupid stuff, but it wouldn't be Dragonball without that. So, relax, sit back, and ride the spiral... (Sorry, just had to chuck that in )

IC: Laos.

Laos smiled at Michio's question.
"Me? I've been better. But I'll be fine." he stretched a few limbs to show that he was ok. "Just never knew Kelson had so much power in him." he said, looking at the rapidly awakening fighter.
"Uh... here he comes." Laos said, his senses suddenly picking up Zeo approaching them. "Look, I know it's hard to believe, Ski, Kelson, but we need to listen to what he has to say. Please, for the sake of the Earth... it might be important." he said, his jaw tensing as he tried to persuade Ski and Kelson to forget their vengeance, if only for a few minutes so they could learn what all this was FUCKING ABOUT!

 

[Phoenix]

Ski in " In Need of Anger Management"



Taking off I was so pissed. I had him. I had him dead in my sights and Michio fucked it. Why? The possibility the hambringer of evil might be a teamate. Like this is some fucking game. This is definately not a game, there is the chance many people would lose thier lives. This not a game. This aint baseball, basketball or football. It ain't Monopoly, Shoots and Latters or Wheel of Fortune. This is real life and in real life people get caught up in the crossfire of these battles.

With that anger pushing me I flew faster and more reckless than I ever allowed myself in the past. I felt different that I did before but I don't know why. My body felt stronger, faster and just all around better than it ever did before, but mentally I was mad enough to check nailed and spit raw iron.

Getting back to the Lookout I stayed in the shadows while heading towards Nilon's room. Right now I did not want too many people aware of my presence here. I was disgusted with this whole thing. For two years I spent looking over my shoulder. Worrying about whether there was going to be world left for Crystal, my daughter and my upcoming child. Two I spent worry if there was going to be world that my loved ones can live without the possiblity of some horrid creature coming down from space and destroying everything they live for. Two years I spent having visions of everyone I cared about dying at the hands of the evil Piccalo predicted. I spent two years training extensively in a room who's gravity was 10 time Earth's own in preparation for a final battle and now thanks to Michio the man who is in part responsible for this darkness is allowed to live long enough to reach his potential.

Every second Zeo lives Crystal is in danger. I can not allow those seconds to pile up. I had finally found Nilons and Laos at the Lookout when I felt the others behind me only seconds away from arriving. Instead of powering down, I raised my power levels back to battle ready and brought my staff into fighting worthy position.

Once the unconsicous Kelson was given the stimulant, Michio said "'Ok, now everyone, none of you are going to leave until I get some answers:
Ski - Why the hell are you so gung-ho about taking out Zeo when it's obvious that the need to kill him is null and void?
Nilons - Who or what is this Evil we need to help you stop and what's happened to you these past two years?
Laos - How you feeling man?"

Walking over to him with my staff firmly planted in my hands I stood eye to eye with Michio and said " First of all I come and go where ever I damn well please and there ain't shit you can do to stop if I wanted to leave. The only reason I came back here to check on Nilons and Laos. After that I go back to where I came from. And two I don't owe you or anyone else any explaination. The only thing I owe is to my loved ones for letting you get the drop on me before I could do to that sonovabitch (pointing to Zeo) what I did to his buddy earlier. If you don't like that then you can haul off and fuck yourself. Personally I don't really give a damn what you think."

 

[bandman2000]

I give Kelson the stimulant. I could feel his powerlevel rising a bit so I at least knew that he was coming out of it, as to when I had no idea. I ask my questions and smile a bit when I hear Laos' answer, but then Ski gets in my face.

I could read his face like an open book. He was severely angry at me for stopping him against Zeo. He looked like he wanted to rip my head off and shit down the hole, then I hear his words. Now I'm starting to get pissed at his arrogance.

'How DARE you!? How dare you call yourself a Earth Defender when your saying all that matters to you is your loved ones. Newsflash Ski, you're not the only one on this shiny blue rock with loved ones. There's over 9 billion people on this planet that you have an obligation to, not just your family.'

'Do you think your daughter is worth saving, but not her friend or her family?'

"What the... How do you know about my daughter or my family for that matter? You've never met them!"

'One of the side effects of being up here on the Tower and being an Interim Kami of Earth, I can be able to check in on people and things from time to time. I might've never see then or been introduced to them, but I do know they exist and I also know that they're not the only ones on this planet.'

'When you agreed to be a Earth Defender, you didn't just become a defender of just your family, but of all the other families on here. Life is precious to everyone, not just your wife or child, but to everyone in the universe as well.'

"Ok, how about Zeo?"

'Zeo...how did I know the conversation would come to this... ok; Zeo has done some bad things I'm sure, *Looks at Nilons* as I'm sure Nilons has done some things she regrets during these past two years. Two years can change people, whether for the better or for worse.'

*Looks back at Ski*

Kill Nilons.

Everyone looks at me with shock, especially Nilons herself.

"What?"

'If we follow your logic that Zeo is bad and should be killed no matter what, then Nilons should follow the same path as Zeo since she's been with him for these past two years and it seems that she didn't resist him and helped him on a few things. She's as guilty as Zeo. Kill her.'

"I won't"

'Why?'

"Because she's my friend and..."

'...and you don't want to take her life. But see Ski, if we go by the way you're thinking, then she is as guilty as Zeo. Not everything is as cut and dried as we would like them to be. Nilons has as much a right to live as you, your family, those people I'm sure she's killed, those men I killed... and Zeo too.'

'I'm not saying that that we should just let bygones be bygones. Nilons will have to come to terms with what she's done the same way I had to. Zeo will have to as well, but through his own way. What I am saying is that there seems to be something more important than just taking out Zeo. From what Nilons has told me, there's a sort of Overlord that called the shots for her and Zeo. He's someone that needs to be stopped and she believed enough in us to be here and in a condition to be assets in her battle. For right now, stop the vendetta. I'm not saying that you can't fight Zeo or you HAVE to be friends with him, but there might be a evil more destructive than Zeo and as a Earth Defender, we need your help... and Kelson's too'

Now I can only hope that I hit that one part of his humanity that will calm him down and help us all.

 

[Kelson]

Kelson had been listening carefully to talking above him. They were trying to trick Ski into falling for it. And everyone did have a point, Zeo had killed Nilons. The woman who had stood on the lookout earlier was not the one who had made fun of Kelson those two short years ago. Even supposing that she was the same one, she wasn't acting the same and had obviously conceded to doing many wrongs! After all, she had the child of someone from wherever she went...that doesn't indicate resistance...

Enough of this banter, Ski can't be allowed to fall to Michio's lying tongue.

Kelson reached deep down into his slightly depleted reserves and began to funnel the power up rapidly. Then, after a mere second or two of this activity, Kelson's eyes flashed open and his powerlevel exploded upward. Pushing himself in a back flip towards the unoccupied back wall, Kelson landed with a growl then stood quickly, more and more power raging through his "system as he prepared for what would most likely be his most difficult battle yet. Ski and him would have taken Zeo out, eventually, but never would Kelson have attempted to take out Zeo, Michio, Laos, and another opponent potentially alone. It was suicide, and deep down Kelson knew it, yet he was here to protect the Earth from those who would destroy it, as Zeo declared his intentions to be, even if it meant his death.

"SKI, RUN!" shouted Kelson, a spinning maelstrom of energy forming in the palm of his hand as the air began to spin turbulently about the rising powerleve.

Not daring to risk retaliation, Kelson delved deeper within himself for powers never before opened to him. He would win this battle no matter the cost. This was the great evil Piccolo had spoken of and if Kelson was to drop, so would they. Even if those people down there never knew what he was going to do for them, they deserved it in their own way.

"KAIOKEN TIMES 2!" cried Kelson, his blood coursing like wildfire through expanding blood vessels. The walls around the Earth's most powerful human exploded outword and the winds howled their fury even as they acceded to exploding out around the wildly glowing body of a very pissed human. Inside his head, Kelson heard the rush of blood, the crackle of energy, and Piccolo's thoughts repeating endlessly. Nothing else reached him as his energies exploded far beyond anything he had before touched upon and the wind grew stronger- starting to gouge out sections of the lookout in its horrendous cries for freedom.

Continuing to increase his powerlevel, Kelson screamed again, this time an incoherent vow, and released the beach ball-sized red maelstrom of energy directly at Zeo.

OOC) I'm assuming Zeo accompanied us since he hasn't posted...if we decide he didn't...assume the attack to be targetted on Michio.

Nilons "The plan."

OOC: One last thing Phenix. In a DBZ fight if your carecter dosen't hit a wall, floor, ect. then he isn't fighting. Now when they can't get up thats when they had there ass kicked.

DW is right were takeing this way to seriously. We need to go back to fun mode.

IC: Michio finished a speech. I was thinking of how to go about explaining Marks unfathumable power. When Kelons poped up off the floor and became surounded by a red glow.

Shit he tragets Zeo/Michio. (Who care who it was.) So I jumped in before the blast just in time to push Zeo/Michio out of the way. Kelson was defenitly not in a talking mood. Maybe he is the one person here that hasn't changed the only way to ever negosate with him ment useing your fist.

"You know what Kelson now is the time for us to finnaly fight." I looked at him, and he looked back at me. "Here are the terms, If I win you sit down and talk this out. If you win I'll probably die. Any complaints?"

I didn't wait for an answer. Kelson, needed to be defeated so I would use my trump card. I began to think of the desprate situation I was in. I needed my full power. I just hope it dosen't effect Ray. (The duaghter's nickname.)

I white glow of energy surounded me and my eyes flashed green. Now wasn't a time I could lose now, was a time when I must win. The flashing speed up until my eyes were a solid green.

OOC: Kelson don't ruffle me up to much before my next post, to night.

 

[Kelson]

Zeo landed from were Nilious (sorry if i spelt the name wrong lol) "Nooo i could have defectled that with no problem" Zeo shouted out, If you heird clearly enough there was a sign of hurt and pain in his voice, Zeo looked at Nilious ^Could it be yes she's almost there^ Zeo thought "Stop it now your that enrgy beam will be your last" Zeo said angerly (is that even a word lol).

Zeo knew that nothing he said would reach Kalson "STOP IT NOW" Zeo was getting fired up "If you distroy her i will kill you and this planet" Zeo said hopeing that would stop him. The beam continued for a few more seconds "MY CHILD IS WITH HER STOP IT STOP IT" Zeo Shouted and with that Zeo powered up "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Zeo continued as he powered up. "You life is now mine" Zeo shouted as he pointed to Kalson.

Zeo lept forward "ZEO SWORD" Zeo comanted.

(The Zeo sword is one of Zeo's powerfulist wepons and his only one)

A deep growl blasted out from Kelson as Zeo's attack met with the hardened resistance of an energy blast holding him at bay. At Kaoiken x2, Kelson knew his power must exceed his adversaries, never before had he felt anywhere near this powerful or invincible.

A simple grunt denoted the change in tactics, forcing more and more energy into the counter attack in an attempt to overwhelm Zeo and destroy him with the backlash.

OOC) Zeo, you posted a new thread so I copied it here with typos and all.

Nilous

OOC: Zeo, shit, now you got me doing it. oh I guess my eforts where in vain. Kelson already solved the Zeo post thing.

This is in high sayain form.

IC: Zeo made a mad dash, charging in and attacking Zeo. What the hell, gose threw his mind I will never know. And to think Mark thought I wood fall in love with this guy. I walk over to Kelson. Shit he dosen't even relise I'm here.

I push Kelson on the side. "Kelson remeamber the challenge is one on one." I turn to Zeo "Don't interfer. Um, go do some male bonding with the others. Like eating or something..."

I turn to Kelson move into a traditional stance. "You ready." 'I'll teach you not to pose as the dead.' "Hey I found out all of you were still alive yesterday and you don't see me freaking out." Kelson lets out an energy way wave. I deflected it with one hand. He rushed in while I was doing so and tried hiting me in the face. I caught his fist.

"Either your testing my power or you don't relise how strong I am." He then kciked me in the jaw. I had expected a come back not a counter. I did a back flip and threw an energy ball at kelson. Who promptly countered.

'Come on now, fight me, with your full power.' He flew into the air. Even though this was a seriuos fight, and I had grown in power. I just didn't like being up high. 'If you won't come here then I'll come to you.' He dissapeared with out a trace. I began to worry.

Just then I coaght a glimps of him if only for a second to my right. He was there just moveing extreamly fast. I lanched a defenseive tatic. I shot wave after wave of energy balls blanketing the area were he would be.

I herd a voice from some distance behind me. 'Nilons wouldn't of fallen for such a simple trick. ' I turned around to see the energy gathering in Kelsons hands. 'Deflect this.' Shit Nilons got to do something quick. 'Energy shield.' I ball ball surounds me just as Kelsons attack hits. The explosion cleared and I remained standing.

OOC: Kelson some time before you end the fight tomrow. Use what I pmed you. As for enrgy sheild. It's a move from "history of trunks". It blocks only enegy attacks and disapears win I resume combat.

Laos

Laos watched on in awe as Nilons and Kelson battled it out. At their current level, he would probably stand no chance against either of them. How was Nilons keeping up with Kelson's Kaioken 2? Was it something to do with her tail? Come to think of it, Piccolo said that the saiyans of old had tails...
Laos cleared his mind, knowing any distractions now might be fatal. His job was clear: he knew Nilons was in the right, but he was perhaps the only one of the Earth Defenders who knew Kelson well, and would do nothing to hurt his friend. (You heard right, friend! lol)
So, his job was clear. He was ready to jump in at any second, as soon as one of them took it too far. The second they tried to take the seriousness of the fight up a level, he would be in there, even if that meant taking a fatal hit for one of them. They were stronger than he was, and when this evil guy they were talking about came down to Earth, Nilons and Kelson would be needed more than Laos in the upcoming battle for the planet... his mission was clear, and he was ready to throw his life in to succeed.
^Please... please don't let it come to that...^
