Scouting [Open, All]

[princesschichi]

Groups of people rushed past Chichi to get away from the chaos. She did not care about the gun shots that had went off. She used her hands to swat them to the side, but not being big herself, she was pushed and shoved constantly. This was not good for her. People were idiots. The more they pushed into Chichi the angrier she became until she could not take anymore.

"UGHHHHHHHHHHH!" When yelled at the top of her lungs, everyone around her fell the ground. They had finally stopped. In typical lady-like fashion, she had to thank them for moving out of the way.

"Thank you."

One girl that had fallen looked at Chichi and said;

"You're crazy lady!"

Chichi's polite attitude turned into one of fury again. She grabbed the girl by the shirt and tossed her across the street.

"Take that for crazy you bimbo! Chichi turned to glare at the others who were left watching in fear.

" Anyone else think I am crazy?" The other people shook their head no when she had turned to them to ask them for their opinion. They were fortunate they answered right or else there would be more bodies flying. Once again, she gave a polite smile before walking to the scene of where the smoke was coming from. She mentioned that she would search for Oolong, but that was just a pretext to get away from her father.

Ox King had walked to the vehicle to pull out his large ax. He knew his daughter very well more than she gave him credit for. He had taken out his ax and had managed to put on his armor that he used to wear. Whatever was happening, he was not going to let his daughter participate in the chaos. She could get hurt especially now in such a critical period on her life.

Ox King decided to practice using the ax. He swung it and sliced his vehicle in two. He did not need the ax to break the car, but he had to make sure it was sharp enough to sever some heads. Being satisfied, he started towards the smoke area himself. {Hold on Chichi, honey, I am coming!}

Oolong had been dodging everyone. He searched frantically for Chichi and Ox King. He did not want to get killed. He knew that he would be the definition of coward if it was placed in the dictionary. His main goal was to find Ox King rather than Chichi because he knew Chichi would make the situation worse.

Chichi continued walking towards the scene where the chaos had happened. There were some weird people on the street.

"Why is the circus always in town....? Better yet, what the heck was Oolong up to?" Chichi whispered to herself. There was no doubt in her mind that Oolong was the source of this trouble. She heard one of them shout about the dragonballs. Great here we go again. Another group of people knew about the dragonballs. Oolong had spilled the beans again. Well the good part was they weren't after Goku or anyone else on the planet. Rather then jumping in, she kept in the crowd awaiting for a good chance to jump in.

Oolong kept going in circles because he could not see over the people. He was so frantic that he bumped into Chichi. His worst nightmare had come true. Despite him being scared, he grabbed onto Chichi's leg.

"Take me home Chichi! I don't want to die.!"

Chichi felt someone bump into her leg. She glanced down to see that Oolong had been there. It's not like she was searching for him, but he came at a perfect time. She was just about to give him a piece of her mind for causing problems.

"WhatonearthdidyoudoOOLONGIwillkillyouifyoudontspeakup" She was muttering angrily because she did not want the henchmen to hear her.

Oolong stood firm to prove his innocence.

"I didnt do anything. They came from out of the sky or something. If anything, I blame Goku for these aliens that keep coming to the planet. He sure makes some good friends. Now we aer all going to die."

Chichi grabbed Oolong by the collar and lifted him up.

"Youstupidpig!" Oolong closed his eyes because he expected Chichi to hurt him, but after she had shouted at him, she dropped him. She had no time to deal with a pig.

"I'll deal with you later.." She warned. The situation with the henchmen was becoming a dangerous one. There was no telling what her father was up to either. Now that she had found Oolong her father was likely on a wild goose chase. She kept patient for her chance to interfere. Getting herself in danger was not smart, but these circus clowns had ruined her shopping day. Payback was inevitable.

[Malachi]

Malachi was unaware of the chaos that was slowly enveloping the planet thanks to these so called scouts. He was off in the middle of nowhere doing a little light training and meditation to clear his head. His job related problems still hadn't solved themselves, it seemed. He hoped that Mitsuki was having better luck than he was. They'd both turned up empty so far. With her wild set of talents he wondered if there was a notable job in this day and age that she would be good at... aside from stomping people into oblivion with her magic, of course. He had no doubt she could do that.

He sat in the rocky wastes, his energy fluctuating lightly as he raised and lowered his energy level to practice his control over his power. After a few minutes of this simple exercise he stood up and looked over his surroundings to think of a method of training that he could use for this place. Seeing so many rocks and boulders laying around, some stacked up from rock slides and the like, he formulated a simple regime for his training and went to work.

He would practice focusing and aiming his energy attacks as well as working on the strength and speed of his telekinesis. He combined the two training methods by lifting boulders with his mind and throwing them. He would then shoot them like clay pigeons with energy blasts. Accuracy wasn't his only goal, though. He also focused on throwing the large rocks as quickly as he could and in rapid succession. This forced him to increase the rate of his blasting as well as splitting his focus between hitting the current rock and throwing the next rock in line.

He started off slowly, one boulder at a time. He lifted the larger rocks first, and as he blasted them apart he would aim to blast the smaller pieces into even smaller pieces as they fell to increase his blasting speed. Halves became fourths and fourths became sixteenths and so on until the previously vehicle sized boulders were little more than gravel.

He picked up the pace, sending two larger boulders at a time and still trying to blast them to gravel before they touched the ground. Each volley caused his energy to fluctuate higher and higher as the intensity of his training increased. His mind had all but tuned out everything other than himself and his targets.

[Frigid]

“You incompetent ingrains, just die!” After firing several blasts from his arm blaster, the leader of the group of henchmen panted in tiredness. He had been yelling and firing blasts since they got here, and yet they no progress with the whereabouts of the dragonballs. Nor did they even lure out any of Earth’s supposed heroes so they could finally have a bit of a challenge than these stupid thugs that managed to get themselves killed. Sweat evident over his purple face, he wiped his forehead and then grinned, why was he stressing himself out? Why don’t they just have some fun while doing their job, let the answers come to them instead of looking for them.

“That’s it men, play time is over. Since these fools cannot even answer a simple question, interrogating them later would be pointless. Kill them all, we don’t need any waste of space by the time we are done here!” The leader ordered his men, who all gave him a nod and a devilish grin. “Now to make things more interesting, turn the ‘kill counter’ feature on your scouters, the highest score gets to lead the group tomorrow, now let’s go!” So they turned it into a game, ironically quite like those video games Earthlings loved to play. Mass massacring for points which were tallied up with their scouters, the chaos jumped to a whole new level as every moving object was fired at.

[Gohan]

Gohan was nearing the city. The cool breeze of the wind felt just right on his skin as the sun did the opposite and warmed him. The feeling couldn't be described as to Gohan, earth seemed to be the best planet to live on. Even though he has never experienced living on any other planet aside from being on Namek for a bit, nothing seemed to compare to earth.

It wasn't log before Gohan noticed a dark mist in the distance."Hmmm...what's that?" Gohan thought to himself. As he drew closer towards the city, he had noticed that the dark mist, was actually a thick smoke and ash coming from the heart of the city. This was not good, his mother and grandfather could possible be in the city. Gohan actually knew for a fact they were there. There was no other place his mother would ever shop at. Instantly, the thought of his family members in danger rushed into his head. Gohan started to get worried, his aura shot out around him, surrounding his body as his speed increased. He was closing in on the city fast, revealing more thick dark smoke along with the feint noise of people screaming, and the destructive noise of explosions going off.

Finally, Gohan had managed to reach the city. He hovered high above it, doing his best to avoid the smoke. It was no use, if Gohan wanted to see anything, he would have to travel on foot. Gohan covered his face with both hands, lightly coughing from inhaling a bit of smoke. Once landing, he took of in a sprint, heading towards the sounds of explosions and cries for help. It was time to go hero mode. Gohan had no idea what was going on, or who was behind all this, but Gohan was there now, and it was time to put a stop to this chaos. Cutting corners, maneuvering around people in panic, Gohan managed to reach the area in which most of the destruction was being caused. To his horror, a group of alien like henchmen wearing a familiar armor, scouters and blasters were destroying the city. A cold shiver ran down his spine. Gohan has seen armor and aliens like this before. They reminded Gohan of Frieza's henchmen. But it was impossible, his father defeated Frieza. Could it be his army coming to earth for revenge? Gohan was so confused at this point.

But this was no time for any of that. Gohan had to stop these things from destroying the whole city! Glancing over to the nearest henchmen, Gohan charged at him in a low flight. "HAAAAA!" Gohan let out a battle cry type yell as he sent a power kick towards the chest of the henchman. If he would land the kick, the sheer power behind it would most likely crack the armor, and even send the henchman flying towards a group of others.

[princesschichi]

The alien soldiers were causing a ruckess. All Chichi wanted to do shop, but both Oolong and these aliens had ruined her plans. It was not easy buying maternity clothing especially when this day has been the all sale day. Oolong was hugging her leg because he was scared that if he let go, she would send him into the aliens. Her attention remained on the aliens.

It was then that she heard a familiar voice that she knew all too well. Gohan! Gohan had attacked the alien visitors. It was just like Gohan to jump in and ask questions later. His father had taught him to do that. Her head shook at this. She knew Gohan could handle himself, but there were a few problems. One...had he even finished his homework. Two..why was he attacking them head on? The main problem was that she had not told Gohan nor Videl that she was going shopping so they'd likely think she was ditching them to satisfy her needs...which was truly the case. Back to problem two. This idea of Piccolo and Goku training her son to fight was a bad one because he would jump in head first. If anything happened to him, she would have to step in and protect him.

{Ughh....Gohan....where do you learn all your bad habits from?} She thought to herself in frustation. The manners she wanted to teach Gohan and Videl were often questioned by Goku's muscle head friends.

Oolong looked up at Chichi who looked furious. Oolong had also seen Gohan jump in, but he felt better now that Gohan was there. Rather then being scared of Chichi, he started to cheer for Gohan.

"Go gohan knock their blocks off!"

Chichi glared down at Oolong. She wanted to slap him so hard that he'd transform into deli meats, but she did not want to give out her location. It could endanger them all. Oolong could endanger her too. With that, she knocked him off of her leg and disappeared into the crowd. Oolong was so focused on Gohan that he had not noticed that Chichi left him there alone. Oolong felt safe with Gohan there.

Ox King had managed to grab his ax and was now on his way to the smokey area. With his large size, he was able to push people over to reach the aliens. The large ax helped his case too. Anyone nearby him would fall over in fear. He had not yet shown himself to the alien people. He was more focused on finding his daughter to make sure she was safe. If anything happened to her, he would feel responsible because it was his job to say no to her. He could not believe he had given into her requests as he often did. He should have put his foot down.

As bad as he felt for leaving Chichi's side, his eyes lit up when he saw Gohan attacking the Aliens. He felt proud seeing that his grandson was a warrior like himself and his father. He attacked with little fear.

"That's my grandson." Ox King said with a cheery tone. Ox King had no concern for Gohan because he was Goku's son as in a true, instinctive warrior. However, Ox King remembered that his daughter was somewhere in the area. He searched frantically for her, but the crowd made it hard for him to spot her.

The only way he could get her attention was by making a grand entrance. With his large ax, he decided to see how quick the alien people were. He smiled to himself. He wondered how strong his throw was in comparison to the last time he had fought.

"Alright here it goes" He threw his large ax at one of the aliens who probably had his back turned. The ax was sharp enough to slice through someone's body completely or several bodies. It was big too. As big as a normal sized human. If it managed to hit someone, blood would spill everywhere and his ax would get stuck into a wall. IF not, it would just cause a scare and get stuck to a wall.

“Hahahaha, so pointless, pointless!” The aliens laughed manically as they continued to blast at the scurrying humans, they were all so weak and fragile, around 5 to 10 in power level each, it was nothing compared to them! They hoped that such carnage would give them some progress, they didn’t want their heads cut off for failure.

Then suddenly a random kid came flying in and kicked the current captain hard in the chest, he could only marvel in horror as his chest piece cracked under the sheer force of the kick and sent him crashing into the alien behind him and into a nearby building. “How did, we did not even see him coming, what is his power level!?” One of others demanded, another Appule alien clicked his scouter and went to scan Gohan’s power level, he couldn’t believe it!

“25,500… but that’s impossible! He’s just a kid, what the hell is he!?” The alien yelled aghast, gritting his teeth as he pointed his blaster at the boy. “It does not matter, he’s powerful but he’s just a kid, we got our advantage in numbers, just shoot him dead!” he called, firing a golden energy wave at Gohan as the two others ran to surround him and did the same. There was a huge explosion in the centre as the beams collided, confident that Gohan was caught in the middle of it.

“Hahahaha, we got him, he is toast!” One of the men laughed before he felt his arm being chopped off on one swift swoop, seeing a large axe hitting the opposite wall in a building. “ARGH, MY ARM! WHAT HAPPENED!?” he cried as he felt his left arm drop to the floor motionless as blood spurt everything, he was glad his blaster was on the other arm but still… whoever did that was going to pay.

“There’s another power level in the crowd… YOU!” he turned around and picked up Ox King’s energy, he didn’t have to actually, the guy was a giant. “Damn it, there’s a giant with a power level of 15,000, where do these fools come from!?” he demanded, he did not understand, the populace here were utter weaklings! “Grrr… just die already you oversized oaf!” he yelled, charging some energy in his blaster and shot it towards the Ox King.

[Gohan]

Gohan spun around after his kick connected on the alien soldier. Once landing on the ground beneath, he watched as the alien collided into a few others before smashing into the wall. He smirked, whoever these guys were, they seemed to have no chance against Gohan. Judging by the energy readings Gohan was picking up using the neat trick he was taught when he was younger, he detected that these aliens held a powerlevel no where near as significant to even put up a challenge. Oh well, this made it easier to take care of, and Gohan wouldn't even have to break a sweat.

Suddenly, familiar energy signals were picked up by the young hybrid shortly after his arrival. Of course, he knew exactly who two of them were, but not the third until a few moments of trying to remember the feeling. His mother and Grandpa Oxking were the ones Gohan recognized first. Gosh,his mom was so predictable when it came to shopping/going out. As for the third, he managed to recognize it was Oolong, the tiny shape shifting pig. Gohan hasn't seen oolong in a while! A smile was present as he heard Oolong shout out words of encouragement. His smile quickly faded as he saw his angry mother come into the picture. He hoped she didn't see the kick he had just delivered. He was supposed to be home studying...not out here.

This all momentarily distracted Gohan. With his head turned and attention away from the other soldiers, they were given the chance to fight back against Gohan. Sensing incoming blasts, he quickly turned his attention back at the soldiers. Three blasts were headed his way. Gohan didn't have time to dodge, so he did the next best thing. Gohan crossed his arms, and squinted as he focused his energy to envelop his body. A sphere of blue energy formed around Gohan as the blast came in and struck the energy barrier Gohan formed. Due to Gohan's power compared to theirs, the blasts did indeed explode, but did no damage to Gohan, and did absolutely nothing to the barrier. Gohan heard a few cheers coming from the soldiers, typical.

As the smoke cleared, Gohan let go of the barrier and maintained a serious look on his face. He stared at the two soldiers in front of him by a few yards.

"If I were you I would leave this planet, NOW! If all you do is wish to take innocent lives then I'm afraid your days terrorizing people are over!" Gohan shouted in a demanding voice. He truly was like his father.

[princesschichi]

"Gohan my baby!" Chichi shouted as the blasts that came at Gohan were about to strike him. Gohan was probably embarrassed considering Chichi still treated him like a four year old. She had gone to a different area of the crowd that had left Oolong by himself so they were no longer together. She was about to charge in to attack when she had seen a large, familiar ax slice off a henchmen's arm. Her eyes widened at this. It had been a very long time since she had seen her father attack/kill anyone.

"Poppa..." She whispered.

Ox King approached the group of aliens with his menacing armor on. One of the aliens that had his arm chopped off shot a blast towards him. Ox King, being as large as he was, allowed the blast to strike at his armor. It did hit him and caused some damage. Then he rubbed the spot where he was hit with his hand. He acted as if it had not hit him at all. He was the definition of a human tank.

Despite Ox King not knowing any energy attacks, his physical ability was beyond that of a human's.

"That tickles." He had to walk over to the large ax that had been thrown to the wall. He pulled it out and allowed Gohan to take the reigns of the fight. When the aliens had blasted Gohan, Ox King was not worried. He knew his grandson was tough.

"See grandson. Your fighting runs in your blood. " He then turned to the aliens.

"I won't let you hurt my grandson or daughter."

Chichi had enough of the assault on her family. In normal circumstances, she could have charged in without thinking to protect her family. She decided to make a surprise entrance as well. Her father was likely to disapprove, but she did not like that they had attacked her son. Knowing full well that she could not charge in a maniac, she high jumped onto a nearby building. Her two cupped hands went nearby her ribcage as she started to chant Kamehameha.

"Kaa"

"Mee"

"Haa"

"Mee"

"HAAAA!" When she fired the blue beam, it was not as big or powerful as she could have done. It was to keep herself being strained from energy. The blue beam was headed at any of the soldiers. Ox King and Gohan were at a safe distance for her to be able to attack them with the kamehameha.

[Frigid]

[ OOC: Testing out the battle system here, some notes: (pretend this is tutorial in a game, lol. If you don’t get it, ignore the OOC for now)
- Defender’s PL is subtracted from attack’s PL if foe is defending (with/without a move). In this example Gohan is defending with an Energy Barrier that boosts his PL by x2. Appulemen’s blasters double their PL when attacking, and three shots were fired at Gohan at the same time.
- Therefore: 51,000 (Gohan’s Barrier) – 30,000 (3 shots) = 21,000
=> Barrier still stands, Gohan takes no damage.
- Energy Attacks cost 1/20 (or 5%) of the PL, in this case, 2,550.

Gohan: 22,950/25,500 PL (Energy Barrier used)
Actions: 3 + 5, (for being 5x Appleman’s PL) => +8 actions per post
-1 (kick in last post) -2 (x2 PL for Energy Barrier) => -3 actions
= 5 actions remaining (will get +8 actions at the start of his next post)
MOVES (from application)
Energy Barrier: x2PL (blocks damage)
Masneko: x2 PL
Kamehameha: x3PL
Special Beam Cannon: x6 PL
Super Kamehameha: x7PL ]

“No-no way! We got you, how are you still standing!?” One of the Applulemem staggered in surprise as the smoke cleared, there was not even a scratch on the kid! “Who are you?” he took a shaky step back, was there nothing they could do? Well seeing as the boy had demands, why could they not make a deal? “Maybe f you tell us where the dragon balls are, then we’ll leave. Unless you want another human dead on your conscience!” The alien said with a devilish grin, the two henchmen in front of him keeping their blasters still aimed at Gohan in warning.

+++++++

[ Appuleman #5: 7,000 (blaster PL, 2x3500 after arm cut) / 10 = 700
(Note: Damage is 10% of PL after defender’s actions)
Ox King’s PL: 15,000 – 700 (hit taken) = 14,300 ]

The alien behind Gohan had turned his whole attention to the Ox King, it was his turn to be surprised too as the blast seemed to explode on the giant’s armour and did little damage. “This makes a lot of sense, these two fools are related in blood!” he realised after putting two and two together as he watched the Ox King retrieve this axe. “It does not matter how strong you think you are, you are nothing to us, NOTHING!” he yelled, trying to intimidate the giant. Suddenly a blue energy beam came out of nowhere and the henchman was engulfed by its blue light, smoke coming out of where the alien once stood after it hit.

[ Chi Chi: 28,500x2 (Kamehameha) /2 (holding back) /10 = 2,850 dmg
Chi Chi’s PL = 28,500 – 1,425 (ki drain) = 27,075
Appuleman #5’s PL: 3,500 – 2,850 (Kamehameha) = 650 ]

“Who-who did that!?” The panting voice of the alien demanded as he smoke cleared, he looked very battle damaged. Most of his armour was blown off, leaving the chest around and the right shoulder guard intact, everything else was ripped or in tatters, he looked pathetic as a soldier. He growled as he saw the pieces of his scouter in front of him, he’d have no recollection of where that energy wave came from. “Show yourself, you coward!” he called aloud into the city, hoping to lure Chi Chi out of hiding.

+++++++

The two henchmen that Gohan kicked into a building seemed to be forgotten, however these two used their apparent demise to their advantage. Both of them sneaked up behind the Ox King and pointed their blasters at the back of his head, grinning like maniacs. “Say your prayers fatso, hahahaha!” One laughed before they fired their blasters at point blank range with twin shots.

[ Appuleman #1&2:
7,500 (blaster 2x3750 after kicked by Gohan) x2 (x2 blasts) = 15,000 PL
15,000 / 10 = 1,500 dmg (if Ox King does nothing/is off guard)

+++++++

Gohan remained where he was. He shot a cold look as one of the alien henchmen decided to speak. It was obvious to Gohan that these henchmen were nowhere near as strong as he was. The power behind those blasts felt like nothing. If these people wanted to take on Earth's special forces, they would stand absolutely no chance. But then again, they did look like a low class soldier patrol. If this was just another scouting patrol and something was out there, then that was why Gohan had a reason to worry. Just like Frieza, the person behind this whole opperation must be powerful, if there indeed was one. But there was nothing around, no huge powerlevel, no other ship, just these aliens cowering in front of him.

"I am Gohan, the son of Goku! Protector of Earth! If you don't leave this planet now....then I'm afraid things might not end up too well for you!" Gohan replied when asked for his name. Keeping his arms crossed and the stone cold stare on the henchmen in front of him, he managed to hear his grand father, ox king, join in on the battle. Gohan's grandfather was strong, far stronger than many human's on the planet. Judging by the power Gohan was sensing from the henchmen, his grandfather could easily handle himself.

Gohan's eyes widened when the henchmen mentioned the Dragonballs. How did they know of them? This is exactly what happened with Vegeta. Gohan was disgusted by these aliens. They came here terrorizing people just so they can get information on the Dragonballs. It was more than obvious they would use them for their own selfish reasons. Probably aiming to do exactly what both Vegeta and Frieza wanted, wish for immortality.

"Heh...If you honestly think you will ever come close to obtaining the dragonballs, you're sadly mistaken." Gohan shot out. There was no way Gohan would let any of these guys go now that he figured out their intentions.

[Mist]

A figure silently watched from the shadows themselves, his very form nothing more than intangible darkness. Feral gold eyes watching from the silence of his position. This entire event had become quite interesting! The figure's toothy grin widened as the family of fighters had arrived on the scene, their defiance taking the worthless fools by surprise, causing more and more substantial damage than his orders would allow. After-all! He'd been told to make sure the interrogation of the residents would go smoothly and what else were these cro-magnon ant's doing than interfering. A sick smile crossed his lips as the soldiers began to panic during the child's explosive decleration

"I am Gohan, the son of Goku! Protector of Earth! If you don't leave this planet now....then I'm afraid things might not end up too well for you!"

It was enough to make him laugh if the child himself wasn't already proving himself capable. This was quite an interesting turn of events and Mistroma was more than happy to continue watching the carnage with glee until...

"Heh...If you honestly think you will ever come close to obtaining the dragonballs, you're sadly mistaken."

Finally, someone who knew what the peons were talking about! Now, Dar'kon finally had someone worth interrogating. Clapping his hand's together, the small child-like figure whom was no bigger than Gohan himself began to appear. His figure reconfiguring in the form of tiny squares that gathered together until his full visage stood before the child and his two elders. His black cloak covering his narrow, demonic face, the child-like fighter spoke with a shrill voice, similar to that of an adolescent.

"Well well! I was curious if we'd ever find anyone that knew of the Dragonball's in this damnedable area. I guess the soldiers orders to kill anyone who didn't cooperate was a good thing after all! I mean...it brought you simpletons out didn't it?"

A chuckle escaped his tiny lips as the figure pulled down his hood and revealed his long, wild white hair. Twin horns protruding from his skull, the little figure didn't seem to look too threatening, and yet...his eyes. Those cold eyes took each of them in with a practiced assesment. He didn't require a scouter like the rest of Frigid's men, and as a result could gather all the information he needed from his opponent's massive auras. Smirking he pointed a finger at the Ox-King.

"You."

A soft word uttered and before the giant could understand what the dimunitive character meant, a thin, compact black and white beam of energy passed through the air at an alarming speed passing inbetween the child and the woman and ripping a hole through the stomach of the giant, right beneath his chest cavity. Blood would pour profusely from the wound and it would most likely take the large man out of the picture, damaging him to the point of inability. The blood wouldn't stop as the wound punctured straight through the stomach and out the back, narrowly missing the man's spine.

A sadistic smile crossed the little fighter's lips as his black cloak flew off into the air, revealing a fighting Gi with an ecliptic purple and black sun emblazone on the chest. Ropes tying cloth around the feet and wrists as well as large meditation style beads resting firmly around his neck, each emblazoned with the same symbol and glowing with puprle light. White hair rose up into the air as a sickening black and purple aura errupted from every pore on the tiny figure's body, casting him in an eerie glow. Staring at the one named Gohan, he spoke.

"So, your father's the protector of this planet? Interesting, that means you'll tell me what I want to know! You see, that hulk of a creature wont last long...I suggest telling me where the Dragonballs are lest he bleeds out. You see..."

The appule like aliens surrounded the group in a circle, keeping all of their blasters trained on the three warriors of earth. They're gaze hardened and bolstered by the appearance of Mistroma Dar'Kon. They looked as if they were ready to fight to the death and it was very likely they may have to soon. Yet for now, they played their part just like all good pawns.

"My men wont just...let you leave. The longer you keep me waiting the more people are going to die in this city. This isn't all of our forces...oh no no no. This is but a fraction! Haha, and if you think they're bad? You should see my partner. Why...by now he's probably killed oh...I don't know...ten..twenty of your pathetic inhabitants?!""

Mist truly wanted the boy to understand the situation he was in. His voice was strong and calm. This was not a fight that he'd win just by throwing punches and taking out fodder. No. For every little appulian he killed there were more all over the planet slowly interrogating every last one of the inhabitants trying to find the information. This was not a battle he could just win! Still, Mist hoped that his words made sense and the boy was as smart as he was strong.

"So, going to tell me about the dragonballs? Or are they going to have to keep killing your people just to get an answer? I'd really perfer we end this now without any more innocent blood being shed. That's not how I like to do business."

ooc: The Ox-King shot was planned with Chi-Chi

[mightyoxking]

Ox King was in a cheery mood after seeing that his ax had chopped off one of the alien's arms. He was chuckling to himself. He also noticed how his grandson was able to handle the fighters himself without much struggle.

The laughter heard from him went silent when he had seen a blast similar to Master Roshi's come down from the distance. He had already known who it was from even if he could not sense ki. His daughter in the distance had also fired a kamehameha wave which had worried him because now she was in the danger. All his attention was on his daughter now who could possibly get hurt.

He had reached for his large ax and would get struck from behind by a a blast to his head. His helmet and his large size kept his him fairly protected from the attack. Although the beam did hurt, he turned around to look at them. He put a grin on his face as he held his giant ax. He was about to swing it down at them when more terror stuck. Ox King had been too long gone from the battle scene that he had not noticed anyone else walk into the area.

The small shadowy figure would not have been spotted by him considering his massive height. A beam shot through his stomach, but this one was more powerful. He immediately dropped his large ax that could shake the area if he dropped it hard enough.

His eyes widened through his helmet. He looked over at Gohan and then Chichi. The way he fell over was slow and gruesome. First he landed on his knees and then he fell onto his stomach. His massive body caused a small, but noticeable tremor that could be felt from the ground.

"Chichi.......Gohan.." He muttered said before blacking out. His life was now on the balance as his world turned to darkness.

**Ox King out**

Watching from a safe distance, Chichi noticed her father had joined her son to attack the aliens who had come to Earth. It was like a family reunion, but a much more violent one. She had to shake her head in disapproval. Her father had told her to take a step back while in her current state, but he had decided to jump into battle after not being in battle for years. Even at his current state, he was enough to chop someone's arm off.

She had to chuckle to herself.

"Oh Poppa..."

Her moment of bliss would be short lived. Her kamehameha had done some damage, but it was not the aliens she was concerned with. A small figure had walked from the shadows. She could not particularly see how small he was from where she was standing, but she could sense his energy.

Another blast went off. Her focus went onto her father who was struck from behind to the head. She saw as he started to chuckle, but another thing she noted was that he was distracted. As he spun around to show no mercy to the alien who had blasted him, another blast had pierced through his stomach like a bullet, but worst.

The blast was as if she was watching it in slow motion. Her eyes widened in horror as her mouth gasped. She did not breathe at all as she watched her father collapse to the ground. It took her a few moments to register what had happened to her mind. She rushed from where she currently standing. Anyone that was in the way was shoved to the side with such a force that they were either knocked into the ground or into another person who pushed other people around.

She didn't care what the aliens did to her while she aided her father. Her knees skid against the ground as she looked over her father. Her knees were now bleeding from the scrape, but she felt no physical pain. The only pain she felt was in her soul..her heart. She pressed her hand on the hole that was caused by the creature from the shadows. Blood her father rushed onto her hand. She thought this was the worst that could ever happen to a daughter.

"Poppa...poppa..." She whispered. Tears of sadness started to flow from her eyes. Mucus even poured from her nose from the acheness of her heart. Her father was the only person left in her family as her mother had died when she was born. The woman who rarely showed emotion to anyone was forced to show it to a whole crowd.

Not only had her tears started to flow, but she had started to hyperventilate uncontrollably. A side even Gohan, her own son, had not seen. The sobbing lasted a couple of seconds until she glared in the direction of the shadowy man. If looks could kill, he would have been completely oblirated to oblivion.

Once again her attention turned to her father, she kept her hand on hsi wound to keep him from bleeding. The sadness she felt was in the mixture of desperation and frustration. Desperation that she wanted her father to live and frustration that she could not take down the shadowy man for hurting her father.

"Someone get help...." She whispered at first because her voice was too choked up to even let out a tone that people could hear. After a few moments, she noticed that no one moved a finger. Her head snapped to the side and she shot a glare up them where her immense presence could be felt by even average humans.

"I said someone get help!!!" She screamed in such a shock that Oolong who had been waiting in the crowd decided to help. He was shocked by the whole situation. He knew there was one thing that could save Ox King, but he'd have to go get it himself. The only problem is that it would take him awhile to reach kami's tower.

Chichi no longer had any patience. She looked at her father's fallen body with complete sense of unfeeling for anyone in the area. The pain was too much for her to bare. A father and a daughter was one of the most sacred relationships in a daughter's lifetime. Something that was hard to break for anyone especially her father who was the only parent figure in her life. A sudden surge of energy began to emerge from her body. In one last desperation, she called out for her father as if that would magically heal him.

"POPPAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" She cried out in agony. The cry could be heard echoing through the city even at a mile's distance. The hidden power that Gohan often displayed had errupted from Chichi. It exploded in opposite directions. Not as an attack, but as a way to release the inmeasurable pain she felt. The whole area around her where Gohan, the aliens, and the shadowy figure stood had buckled under. A crater had formed around the area causing bystandards to fall over, cars to crush, and sewage tops to pop into the air.

Windows of nearby shops had shattered. A nearby fire hydrant had imploded sending water squirting onto the streets. She no longer noticed anyone in the area as her head placed on her father's large chest. She had not noticed the destruction she had caused nor had she fainted from the sudden energy she had emmitted. She sobbed uncontrollably, but it was now a soft uncontrollable sob. Her body shook. With her head laid against her father's chest, the only body part that coudl be seen from Chichi was her chest and back shaking from the terror that had struck her heart.

Oolong who had fallen from the immense power of Chichi glanced over at her direction. He was usually the cowardly pig, but after seeing Chichi's sadness, his instincts to help out a woman had kicked in. There were sirens in the distance who were probably for the fallen Ox King. Oolong knew there was the kami's tower, but there was no way he could get there himself. Ox King's life depended on the humans as sad as that may be.

“You stupid brat, you think you are some hero? Take a look in the mirror for a reality check!” The Appule like alien in front of Gohan scoffed at the heroism, he was sure these Earthlings were delusional. If it wasn’t for their superior’s orders, he hoped their commander’s name would bring fear into the boy. However he had to stay put for now and bide his time, surely some higher power had noticed their predicament now. They may have outnumbered their enemy, but they were obviously outclassed in every way, they didn’t even hit the kid yet!

“What is he? How is he still standing!?” The two henchmen cried in unison after shooting their blasters at him at point blank range, they did see and hear a hit but it barely did anything to the human giant. Eyes widening in horror as the Ox King grabbed his axe, they heard a brief screech as a beam went straight through the giant, obviously someone with great power.

Then their savior came to them from the shadows, Mist had finally came out of hiding. The henchmen were spared from more grunt work, grinning gleefully at how futile it was for the Earthlings. The henchmen went to gather behind Mist, and then bowed before him. “Thank you for your timeline arrival, Lord Mist.” they said in deep respect, before turning their attention to the boy who thought he was a hero, his demise would still come due to such stupidity.

OOC: Mist’s PL is at 20,300 as of this topic. To stop the topic for dying, we will keep going as if Gohan gave them the silent treatment.
