Until the tournament begins, Cajabe will be training just a little distance further down the arch. Once the battle begins, he may decide to watch, or he may not. There's now way of knowing, but basically, this thread is so he doesn't clog up the arena with training posts while everyone else fights.

Currently now out of sight from the other fighters, Cajabe takes in a deep breath, and tries to relax a little. "Maybe I should try seeing how my speed is... just one more time... who knows, I might be able to do it any minute now..." He walks over to a corner, and designates for himself the longest distance possible to attempt his sprint.

Cajabe makes a dash, and... AND... HE DISAPPEARS!!! Reappearing and skidding to a halt, Cajabe is extremely pleased with his speed. "I think I can move fast enough now... the After Image technique... is mine!" He laughs to himself a little.

"Well this is just brilliant! My speed really has increased before the tournament after all. But I know there is a level beyond this... however, I realize that it is definitely too late to even think of reaching such a height now... even I couldn't get that much stronger in the short time I have here." He thought to himself.

"You picked that up just now?" Couric asked, arms folded behind his head as he approached the Saiyan, letting out a childish yawn, having nearly fallen asleep while waiting for his fight to come. /Looks like this may actually be interesting if he can pull that off and use it well enough.../

"Hmm?" Cajabe turns toward Couric, and asks him... "You mean... you can even use the After Image technique already?" He pauses, irritation setting in... "At least there's no way you could take it to the next level, I bet." He chuckles a little.

Couric simply shrugged, deciding not to give away all the he could do just yet since this was his opponent for the first match of the tournament.
"Who knows. Maybe I can't. Maybe I can. But I suppose you'll find out when we fight, now won't you?" He replied, a childish smirk on his face.

Cajabe smirks back, but his smirk is arrogant, rather than childish... "I guess we will find out." He lets out a breath, and leans his back against the wall. "Look, kid, I blow my mouth off a lot, but I guess I have a long wait ahead of me before I can beat the crap outta you... so, we should take things easy for now. What's your name?" Cajabe is acting very surprisingly mature... which... is surprisingly... something he's capable of doing, but only on rare occasions.

"Couric." He replied simply, deciding to sit down instead of stand up while he waited for his fight to come. Despite the fact he believed it may be somewhat easy, he did have to say that he was pretty damn excited about it. /It seems like such a long time ago that I learned about it from that flier at the dojo.../
"What about yours?"

"I'm Cajabe. Your name is weird... but so's mine." He puts his hands behind his head, and raises a leg up, planting his foot on the wall, showing just how laid back he's capable of being during this rare event. "By the way, how'd you get so damn powerful at that age?"

/He seems almost like a kid when he's not spewing out bull about being strong and kicking people's asses./ Couric noted, pausing as he heard Cajabe's question. He blinked and looked up towards the ceiling, trying to think of the answer.
"I guess it's because I've been training really hard for this for the past several days...and I guess being a Saiyan helps." He replied, remembering his trip to Vegeta and the fight he had with that girl in the dojo.

Cajabe's tail twitches out of its beltwrap for a second... "I'm a saiyan too, but I've been stuck on Earth for so long I must have fallen behind... Heh... the people of this planet have held me back for a long time... they're weak..." And wait until Couric tells him that he's been on Earth all he can remember, too.

"Join the club. I didn't even have any idea that I wasn't from this planet til a girl I met mentioned them...So that's why I headed to Vegeta." Couric explained, still looking up towards the ceiling overhead.
"Though...Something's telling me that I probably shouldn't head back. Dunno why though." He added.

"Huh?! If you've been stuck here, too... that means that... Oh shit..." He curses, realizing that there must be plenty of more powerful saiyans out there, just like him and Couric, but without Earth to hold them back.

"Eh?" Couric didn't quite get why Cajabe suddenly said oh shit. There was no massive beam/ball of energy in the area and there was no retard screaming about the fact that the person firing said technique would destroy the planet while a midget said let's go. Of course, Couric didn't know that that was the trigger for someone to say oh shit, but it was required to lengthen this post.
"Oh shit what?"

"Think about it... if the two of us are as strong as we are now, even though we've been living on this planet of weaklings all our lives... just think if there are others like you, others like me, who remained on Vegeta their whole lives! Just think how strong they could be? Now you see why I said 'oh shit'?"

Couric blinked, turning back to look up towards the ceiling for a second. He considered the scenario Cajabe had suggested, deciding to go with his belief that Saiyans raised on Vegeta were far stronger than they were. His lips slowly curled upwards, the Saiyan turning to face his future opponent with a smirk.
"If that's the case, then I'll keep training until I can kick their asses." He replied quite simply.

"You think so?" Cajabe lets out a short laugh. "Why does that make you so happy? Personally... it pisses me off... it puts me one step further away from being the best... being the best is everything to me..."

"Simple. Stronger the opponent, the better the fight and the stronger I'll get. Higher the goal, the more I'll be pushed to train as hard as I can to get there." He replied, folding his arms behind his head, looking back up towards the ceiling.
"So why the hell would it piss you off? Just means you'll have more motivation to work at getting to your goal."

"You know, I don't actually know the answer... guess I'm just used to being the best all the time here." He wouldn't say it, but Cajabe admired the ability to just enjoy the challenge of a stronger opponent in such a way as Couric could. Cajabe would enjoy it just as much, to be honest, what with being a saiyan, too, but he'd be angered by it at the same time. Ruining the fun.

Couric chuckled a bit. "Well if you expect to be the best, then you'd better be prepared for a few ass kickings along the way." He replied, tail wrapping itself around his waist after sliding his belt.
/I wonder how long it'll be til it's my turn to fight.../ He was nearing boredom and that'd probably lead to a quick nap to pass the time. But then again, he could always train a little.

"Hah, funny kid. Nobody kicks my ass. Not even a cocky brat like you." He smirks, and looks the other way, also feeling bored, and with his tail starting to twitch, as it always does when something's bothering him.

"We'll see." He replied, getting to his feet and looking around the room, trying to think of something he could do to pass the time until his match started. Of course, he hadn't quite noticed that some heavy shit was going down in the cardinal cities and probably wouldn't for a while longer.
/Sheesh...I must be bored./

He closed his eyes, facing the wall as he tried to decide between training and falling asleep until his match came. If he chose to train, he'd go into his match a bit lower than one hundred percent. But if he chose to rest, he might not wake up in time for his match and could possibly miss out on it.
/Which one...?/

"Maybe I could manage to head off and get back before my match begins to see if anything's happening..." He considered, yawning as he looked towards the window above, thinking that he could probably get out and get back before his fight began. /It's worth a shot...maybe.../ Couric noted, looking around quick.

It was about then that Couric would finally notice that numerous signals were dying all around the world, his eyes widening a bit as he was hit by a sharp pain. Wincing, he looked out the window. "Just what the hell's going on out there...?" He muttered, leaping up to the window and looking out....only to come face to face with the Flying Nimbus.

"Guess you read my mind, eh?" He asked, the cloud just 'staring' at him as though he were stupid. Slipping out the window and onto the fluff ball, Couric smirked. "All right, Nimbus! Let's get going to Korin's to see what the hell's going on."
The fluff ball was just about ready to go when the announcer made the call that Reiji was disqualified.

"Well...Looks like we'll hafta be quick then.." Couric concluded, holding on as tightly as he could as the cloud 'revved' up and then took off into the air at top speed. /Korin should probably know what the hell's going on...He can read minds after all. If that's all he can do, I'd be a bit surprised./ He chuckled mentally as the cloud disappeared into the distance.

A few minutes and a good few falls later, Couric would find himself just below the window to the waiting area. He leapt up, grabbing onto the window sill and pulled himself up, looking in to see if anyone had left. Cajabe was still off who knows where and that was about all he could see. He pulled himself in and slid down the inner wall, sitting just below the window once more, yawning and waiting for his match to come as he had before heading to Korin's Tower.

Cajabe paces around, having heard that the first match was over, he now couldn't wait for the second match to be done with. "They better hurry up, I want my fight!"
