"See?" Pikruel said as she rapidly punched and kicked whatever enemies came close to her. "These guys aren't a problem."

When she got no response, she stopped and turned to look for her partner. She found her in the crowd just in time to see her thrown into a mountain. "Oh, no!"

Pikruel started to rush toward Nion, but troops quickly swarmed around her and latched onto her. She struggled to get free, but their collective grip made any kind of movement difficult. Then one of them made the mistake of accidentally cupping his hand around her boob, and Pikruel erupted into an explosion of energy, sending the men flying in all directions.

"Honestly," Pikruel said with her arms crossed and her face all red. "You people have no manners."

"I don't care how many there are," Holly said to the Dashade. "Just eliminate them. Arcosian? Must I do everything myself?"

"No, Commander. You do not. I was merely keeping you updated" The Arcosian kept his eye on his increasingly angrier opponent, holding out the Ki blasts. "Now, you have my full attention" Without hesitation Dashade rushed forward, launching the Ki blasts at the Saiyin, one heading to collide with her front while the other aimed to circle around and wait behind her. When the front one got close enough for Dashade's liking his closed his open palm with a smirk. "MILKY CANNON!"

The first explosion of Ki from the ball manage to completly take the warrior by surprise, the sheer force colliding with her body and throwing her backwards and towards the other Ki 'mine'. But by now she had gathered her wits and came to her sense, her natural Saiyin instincts surging through her and helping her just launch herself over the 'mine, allowing it to go off on her terms. Th enext explosion gave her momentum to fly into the wall of the small crater she had made, instead of crashing through it though, she slamed her feet into it so that she could push herself off of it and into the air.

In the air she began to spin, gritting her teeth as a slight bit of motion sickness started to take place. The world around her spinned out of visability for her, all beside her target as she only got fast and faster. "WHIRLWIND!"

Dashade jumped back at he witnessed the woman avoid his second attack, not hesitating to fire a barrage of ki blasts at her as her feet slammed into the 'wall'. However with a yell of 'Whirlwind' she had become just agile enough to narrowly avoid the blasts, surprising the Arcosian as her body became a mid air drill, shooting towards him faster then he could blink.

Without a thought to get in his was the Arcosian doubled back away from the attack that still made good ground to catch up with him, he needed to stop it right in it's track, or wait for the spinning to dizzy his opponent. Digging his feet into the ground, he stood defiantly before her, moving his hands together before ripping them apart with a roar. "GRAVITY... IMPACT!"

With that battle cry, Dashade felt the Ki from quickly in front of him as the attack came close to hitting, he slammed his hands against the air with such ferocity that the Ki seemed to spark at it. A brief shock wave appearing before him.

The Ki blasts came swiftly and made for a hard time for her to avoid each of them, the smoke that would arise from them decimating the mountainside only served to increase the difficulty, but with enough sharp turns and determination she lessened any blows comming upon her. The only pain of the manuver was her out of control spinning and the Ki blasts that came to brush just past her skin, leaving a red tinge in it's wake.

Finally her whirlwind closed in on the creature that she hoped was Dashade (she really couldn't tell at the moment), ready to slam dead centre into his chest and knock him off balance. Unfortunatly for her the shock wave caused by the Arcosian stopped the impact of her attack, instead of her hitting Dashade she was pushed out of her spinning motions and flung up into the air with a large bruise under her white hair.

The counter attack was a surprise success on Dashade's part, he only expected the shock wave to knock her back a few pace or hold her off, not to actually send her sprawling above him. Aha, perfect! Quickly he slammed his feet into the ground to propel him up into the air, with the assist of his Ki he rocketed towards the airborne Saiyin and proceeded to slam his fist into the woman's stomach, hoping to leave her disorientated. After that he planned to grab a hold of her by her legs.

Damnit, damnit, DAMNIT! This was not supposed to happen! Getting launched up into the air by a simple counter attack was one thing, the attacker rushing upwards to ram his fist through her stomach was just down right degrading. But now he had managed to take a hold of her, his fingers diigging into her thighs while she attempted to regain her breath? Her pride wouldn't stand for this. "Nice try... Jackass-" She reeled back with a cough and a groan, the pain was getting to her, but she would endure. She had to.

Rasing her hands up to slam against his arm, she knew that she would be unable to unleash a Ki attack from this distance without hurting herself. So, she used her head. "But... I..." Abusing her flexability she brought up her upper half, her voice roaring s the whole battlefield would see her hopfully prevail. "...I don't swing that way" Not the worst one-liner I've come up with... With a roar she brought her head up to slam against the Arcosian.

From her perspective, it looked that the fight between her comrade and the Arcosian was not going in her friend's favor. Attempts to rush in to help would be futile, however, as swarms of enemies floated in her path to prevent her from moving very quickly. Then she had an idea. She released a ball of golden energy towards the enemies in her path, then closed her eyes and squeezed her hand to make the ball explode into a blinding light.

With her enemies stunned and unable to fight, Pikruel charged up her next attack. "Galick...Gun!"

The purple beam of energy cut a path through the swarm of invaders, allowing her to quickly approach the Arcosian with ease.

The hit to the stomach came as a shock for the Arcosian, knocking the wind outta him with a surprisingly strong forehead. "No! My gaspocket!" He reels back for a moment, but his grip on the Saiyin's legs still held firm. Wondering if maybe her headbutt would be stronger if she hadn't already been damaged so much.

When the cry of a Galick Gun reached his ears, he snapped his gaze accordingly to face the other Saiyin that now rushed towards him. Let's kill two birds with one stone Staring down the other Saiyin with out so much as a thought, Dashade swung around and launched Nion's body right at Pikruel. "Well, maybe you swing her way!"

...That was terrible

"That was in...terrible...taste..." Ninon choked out as she felt her body launched yet again through the air, heading straight on a course to slam into her partner dead on. She felt her pride slowly stagger again against the transpiring events, the Lizard man's domination of her was completly humiliating, and now she was about to be used to take dwn her partner as well. It was unacceptable, all she could hope that Pikuel made for a soft landing, or she would be worrying about the condition of her head after this. "Damnit...Damit...DAMN....it..."

Taao had arrived well in time to hang back and witness the heated exchange between with an alien who was obviously the same species as Frost, only his armor was black. He didn't think there was anyone one this planet really strong enough to appose an invading force so he was surprised to find that the army already being pressed, shocked when he realized it was only two female warriors. They where both giving their all, one stood alone against the army of grunts while the other battled who appeared to be the commander in single combat! It was an incredible sight that gave him a much needed boost of hope and confidence, he was almost beginning to think that they wouldn't need his help at all, so he decided to wait for the right moment to make his move and until then he would wait and passively store as much Ki as possible without alerting the enemy.

Using the momentary distraction caused by the violent Ki wave to close in on the battle, in the next second after blasting down the brunt of the armies forces she broke off, charging directly at her comrade who'd just lost upper hand of her own fight. Charging straight at an fully aware enemy like that, bad move as she quickly learned when the black alien hurled the other woman directly at her. The resounding crunch of their bodies slamming into each other was enough to make him wince in pain. By the time they where in a tangled heap on the ground Taao had made it to ground under the cover of the boulder sized chunks broken from the mountain. From there he only had to cross 15 meters and unleash his surprise attack. Easy enough. However in his current state, without much time to prepare, he doubted seriously that he'd have enough power to kill the guy, however killing for him was a last resort.

"1...", " 2.." on the count of three lept over the boulder with a front-flip. In the time it took to reach the ground he'd gathered all the strength into his leg muscles that he could while at the same time focusing all the Ki he'd managed to gather in his right hand. The moment his balls of his feet hit the planets surface he rushed at the enemies back at break neck speed, crossing 10 of those meters in almost a blink of an eye, right arm outstretched with his fingers together, sharp nails forming forming a blade as sharp or sharper than any blade aimed to pierce the alien through the left shoulder. He did all this in the matter of seconds, and there was no battle cry to give away his position or angle of attack. This was his gamble.

"Now, with those two down I have a few seconds to spare. I must finish this before there are any more casualties" Dashade raised both of his hands together aiming down at the fallen warriors, briefly lamenting that these two could cause so much trouble. Was this the average power of the Saiyins? Could this Empire hope to stand up to the inevitable resistance they will all pose? These have to be rouges... Or else I only see more bloodshed in the future The Arcosian intended to finish the two off with a barrage of Ki attacks while they were vulnarable, and he almost came to doing it as well. Almost.

"Now, TO FINISH THI-" Before he could let loose the cry and finish off the two threats for good, he only just noticed the stretched out green arm moments before it's blade-like claws buried themselves in his shoulder. With a shreik of pain he let go of his Ki blasts, one flying off to the side and another falling to the ground, both resulting in unimportant explosions. "Damn, the third fighter! I had forgotten about him... He must be with the Saiyins"

A Namekian!?When the attack came, Dashade's head instinctively went to the source where he gaped at the single Namekian, his eyes drawn to the Ki blast charging in the alien's free hand. There was no time to plan, it was obvious what the next move would be. Thinking quickly, the Arcosian warrior grabbed a hold of the stretched arm with his other hand. Time to see how far this Namekian elastic limbs stretches

He charged up the Milky Cannon in one hand before dashing into the air, keeping his grip on the arm and hopfully pulling up the Namekian with him.

Sometimes Nion both windered and cursed the one who came up with the idea for the Saiyin's battlesuits, they were easily ripped (As she could see now, by the end of this she would be lucky not to become practically naked) and in the crux of a arduous battle the wear's aching body and sweat would only make the suit tighter and more uncomfortable. That was the feeling she experience as her head slammed directly into Pikruel's chest, sending them both to the ground, the fabric of her body suit scratching at her skin. I swear, these were made just because the Saiyins wanted to still be able to flex on the battlefield

The Arcosian's tactic of throwing her own ally at her was unexpected. At the speed that Pikruel was moving, she didn't have much time to react. She took the full brunt of the attack, flying down together with Nion at a supersonic crash collision to the ground. At least, that's how it would appear. But when Nion would come into contact with Pikruel, she wouldn't feel any resistance from her body. A second later, Pikruel disappeared.

A few feet away from Dashade, she reappeared, firing a standard ki blast from her outstretched hand. If successful, she would continue rocketing up to Dashade and uppercut him in the face.

"How do you like that?" she said. "I call it the Fake-Out Mirage!"

The Arcosian continued to pull the Namekian against him, growling to himself at the situation he had managed to move himself through. He was put off by how easily the warrior had simply let her friend fall just for an upper hand in the fight. "Take a load of this" Shaking his mind free of the thoughts plaguing it, Dashade continued pulling the Namekian towards him, either the Ki blast hit dead on, or he was taking someone with him.

As he'd hoped the alien's full attention was focused on finishing off his current battle as quickly as possible, too focused to become aware of the imminent danger until it was too late, Taao's gambit paid off as his attack found it's mark. The elation and victory he experienced was a fleeting one. The alien proved to be more resilient than he'd expected, giving no time for a finishing blow to be dealt he'd took hold of Taao's extended right arm just before dashing into the air, Taao's immediately understood he'd made a critical misjudgment in not going for a vital organ. The alien had begun to prepare a counter attack but Taao's paid it no mind, he already knew what he had to do to escape this situation and he did,'t hesitate for a second. This time Taao did let out a cry as he raised his left arm in a right angle above his head just for a moment before bringing it down on his bicep with enough force to lob it clean off. Unlike most creatures, loosing an arm or leg was hardly a hindrance to a nimekian warrior.

With the threat removed Taao immediately dashed backward putting even more distance between him and the enemy to avoid any counter blast the alien probably hoped to trap him in. It's only victim would be his already severed arm. He looked up just in time to see one of the women appear near to the alien, and using a ki blast propelled herself vertically, right for the alien. He marveled at their raw combat ability, Taao fully expected they would both be out for a while, but here she'd already recovered and launched a counter attack which was to her credit quite unorthodox. Weather or not her second attack proved more fruitful than the last Taao hoped she would keep his attention long enough for him to gather the energy he needed to regenerate his right arm and get back in the fight.

Nion had expected to land on her partner when she slammed into the other's body, what she did not expect was to go right through what had in fact just been an after image. This did not bode well for the warrior, and before she had the chance to yell out in frustration her head collided with the groundwith a loud thump.I'm going to kill that Lizard bastard... When I can use my legs again...

In her downfall Nion was able to look up from her position, her mouth spitting out pieces of the ground that invaded her mouth, allowing her to witness the Namekian Warrior get Dashade in the shoulder. Before ripping off his own arm. "WHAT IS WRONG WITH EVERYBODY ON THIS PLANET!?"

The sudden loss of weight from the Namekian must have affected the Arcosian's aim, because Pikruel was able to circumvent it with a minor shift in her flight course. She decided against punching her target directly in the head. Because she didn't know how much punishment he could take, the blow could be potentially fatal. She instead aimed for the Arcosian's core, using stored energy in her fist to give her attack extra power.

"Leave this planet alone!"

When the Namekian warrior was suddenly disarmed Dashade's aim wavered a bit in surprise, he knew that Namekian's could regenerate, but he would of never thought that the warrior would voluntarily rip off their own limb. Dammit! He knew that his other opponent was coming straight for him now, but the thought came to mind that the Namekian had opened himself up for the perfect opportunity to be caught vulnerable. The energy for the regeneration would take time to gather after the blast that was thrown at Dashade, and it was doubtful there would be much of a fight against a one armed warrior.

And that's when Pikruel's fist implanted itself firmly within his chest "Arg! SHIT!" Was the only words he was able to gasp out as the punch threatened to tear right through his armour and skin.

"Leave this planet alone!"

The words got on Dashade's nerves slightly, making his retort as he reached out to grab a hold of her shoulders. "I will leave this planet when the threats against my men cease their pointless slaughter!"

Pikruel's attack made it through, but this foe was surprisingly durable. She was starting to get excited. Finally, a real challenge. She quickly pushed herself out of range of the grabby Arcosian, but his words caught her by surprise. He was concerned about his men. Maybe he's not a bad guy after all, but why is he with them?

"I'm not interested in hurting any of your men, but this planet isn't theirs, and I won't do nothing while your men slaughter them and steal their lands."

She backed off out of his reach in an instant but didn't attempt to counter attack, it irked him gravely that she came to a stand still. If there was something Dashade was never able to get over was his sense of paranoia in fights, especially when he's already been attacked form behind twice. Has she spotted a weakness? Or is one of her allies sneaking up behind me?

"We're not stealing anyone's land, we're defending ourselves. We arrived here to announce the death of Lord Frost and the ascendence of Lord Heeta, they reacted with violence. While I do not wish for a slaughter, I will not allow any more casualties of my people"

The sea of confused and sometimes blinded soldiers flooded what had been a battlefield minuetes before, the stage for what they thought would of been an easy fight. Just an unarmed monkey and some strange ice woman against an entire army? It should of been like stepping on an ant. But now half the army had fallen to the might of both the warriors, with an additional third slug creature comming in to add even further damage with Ki blasts. For some, there was no denying it, they stood no chance against these warriors. But they didn't have too. Commander Holly wold arrive soon, maybe with some enforcers. The most distant of hopes was that Lord Heeta himself would arrive on the planet to sqaush these bugs, but if Heeta was anywhere near, everyone would feel his presence.

So now, an army of 500 stood amoung the wastland that was their battlefield. Some dead some knocked out, some cowering and some ready to go and fight once more. But all stood watching the lone Arcosian that stood between them and death's doorstep. It was strane, from most rumors spreading around the empire of HIS clan, it was a surprise that the Arcosian was actually that strong. Maybe he could distract the attackers until the real help arrive... If it was comming at all.

"Common, you ass...holes..." THe random insult had come from the ground, where various rocks seperated for Nion to strugle to her feet. "I can take you all on with one arm tiedbheind my back... Then... Then I'll go after the lizard king up there..." I'll give you a chance to have your fun, Partner... But when he kicks your ass I'll be smiling... And I need time to recover some lost pride.

The aliens deceleration of heroic intent was a quite a surprise but not one that came unwelcome, in fact it was a relief to hear those words and how the alien truly believed that the cause he and his men fought for was just, even if they where mislead. To Taao that that his enemies had honer, they all valued each other's lives as much as any warrior who would fight beside each other would. In that very insect they became more than just grunts in the enemies army, yet even so he would do what he must to protect this planet from another Tyrant's war, even if it meant killing good men. But maybe, maybe they didn't have to fight? They're own commander had revealed weakness to them with his words, a weakness they could exploit with violence, sure they could ransom the lives of all the soldiers but there was an even simpler solution, talking. Perhaps Taao could bargain for the peace and freedom of the maintains, or at least for a end of hostilities for now It was possible, it had to be, he hoped it could be for the sake of the meltains.

His hopes where quickly dashed as a pile of rubble transformed into a woman who'd clearly not had her fill of fighting. To his lament the one he perceived to be more than a little high on battle with no intentions of coming down soon. He admired to woman's fighting spirit, and wonderful complexion, but he wished she would have stayed down a little longer

"I can take you all on with one arm tied behind my back... " She boasted to the remaining soldiers proudly, and while he could tell by their beaten down expression that most of them knew they where completely outmatched which was a relief. However there where plenty among them who their unneeded fighting spirit on their faces and who knew well before they actually charged forward that it was time. The soldiers charged, and not just in the blue woman's direction but some where headed for him as well, a good 50/50 of a hundred or so fighters. He too felt as though he could take them on with just one arm but he wasn't about to take that chance.

" AHHHHHHHH! " Taao roared as his power level would suddenly begin to spike. He focused his energies within him on the task of regenerating damaged cells in a similar manner as when he healed the beaten up meltain boy, only this time it was his own body he was working with which made it much easier. In no time at all another arm slick with greenish-yellow slime was born in place of the stump attached to his right shoulder, which gave both groups of men pause long enough for Taao to remove his cloak and prepare to fight.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________
"Crush them! " one of the more burly soldiers with a red scouter called out to his comrades. " Look how Dashade fights for to protect US! Are we mice or are we men, Shall we fail Lord Heeta here?! " All the men who'd initially stepped forward to fight answered with a resounding NO, even a few of those who'd formally accepted defeat chose to step out with strengthened resolve

"FOR LORD HEETA!" The cries of determination from the many soldiers threatened to cross the planet, even in the middle of his own fight Dashide could hear the battle cries loud and clear. Their confidence and willpower astounded him, even against odds that were demonstrated to be impossible, they were prepared to fight for their cause. The Arcosian couldn't help but smirk. Lord Heeta could ask for no finer followers While he didn't want any casualties, he would not forbid these men from fighting for their Lord, he could only hope that he wins his current battle and is able to aid in theirs.

His scouter COM was still on for the moment and with a quick glance to the remaining opponents he attempted a few pieces of advice towards his comrades. "Do not underestimate your enemy, men. The green one is a Namekian, a race known for their healing abilities and, as you can see, self-regeneration. I suggest attacking the heavily wounded warrior first before the Namekian has a chance to make her an even bigger threat. Fight with vigour, for Lord Heeta!"

The Saiyin in front of him seemed to have the same distaste for any more killing as him, but as her partner has already proved. A peace would be improbable.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The battle cries of many Soldiers filled the battleground, some charging towards the suggested blue target, while others sought to hold off the healer. The name of their Lord left the mouths of many, their spirits rising as they began their assault yet again.

The Saiyin woman rose from the groundwith a slow grow rising in the back of her throat, her eyes swept over the battlefield at the opponents that charged before her, her aching muscles tensing up. If Pikruel would hog the lizard Nion would just have to settle for these weaklings. Maybe they would at least put up a fight together.

A quick glance up had her staring at the Namekian that dis-cloaked, preparing for the upcomming battle; the thought of a Namekian fighting made Nion chuckle. "I'd say its best if you leave while you can, Namekian. This is a Saiyin's fight, no place for a paccifist"
