Gozu flies over the grasslands on his nimbus wondering what exactly the difference is between grasslands and plains and why there's a need for both words. "Language such a funny thing." Gozu says to himself and to his nimbus.

Gozu stops his nimbus he's had fun goofing off but he knows its time to get back to training. Gozu sighs. "Guess I should go and buy Roshi some more of those magazines he likes." Gozu says with a hint of disgust in his voice.

"Alright nimbus. To South City." Gozu says. Gozu leans back as his nimbus zooms off doing a 45 degree turn heading towards South City. Hmmm...wonder how much I'll need. I'll just buy a lot so he's sure to train me.

Jumping out from the water after his swimg from Papaya Island, Cajabe races across the land toward West City. "I may have lost the tournament, but that won't stop me!"

Gozu and Ava rocket across the grasslands after leaving West City now neck and neck with Ava Gozu looks over and sees Ava laughing. Gozu is happy he she's having fun.

As he looked to over to Ava, he'd notice Ava cupping her hands now, getting to her feet...
"Haha! This is fun, Gozu. You were right...."
A blue orb of energy begins forming in her hands at that, turning to face behind their course of action....
"Time for a speed boost! KAMEHAMEHAAAA!!"
And with that, she realeases the wave, causing her and her Nimbus to boost forward at amazing speeds.

Gozu sees Ava rocket past her using a Kamehameha to boost her. Gozu laughs as he yells. "Hey cheater!" And having no choice Gozu cups his hands and fires a Kamehameha behind him as well putting more power into his so he'll close the gap quickly.

Ava laughs yet again, holding the wave of energy to keep boosting, looking on as Gozu does the same now....
"Haha! You didn't say we couldn't do something like this! You're stealing my idea!"
He 'd eventually catch up, sense he was putting more power into his, though she'd continue pushing hers out, to keep a slight lead.

"I never said we could either. And hey I have to steal your idea I don't want to lose" Gozu says with a laugh. Gozu pushes out more power and he pulls neck and neck. With Ava. "Hey ya"

Looking over at Gozu now, as he caught up, Ava smiles...
"So.... You trained under Master Roshi too. That reminds me.... Well, I'll talk about it later.... I'm not gonna lose!"
At that, she begin pushing more energy into her wave, boosting out a bit futher...

"Oh yeah I trained under him." Gozu says turning to show the turtle kanji on his chest. "I won't lose either." Gozu says as he pushes out more power catching up with Ava and passing her.

Ava takes note of the kanji, and smiles....
Oh cool. He gave me his symbol too... See...?"
She turns to show him her kanji on the back of her jacket, then turns back...
"He said he didn't give it out anymore.... You must be really good..."

The two of them now rocketing back from the mountains, Ava's beam begins to fade away....
"A-Ah.... I've been slacking off ever since...."
Her beam dies out.... And she falls off her Nimbus to the left, free falling to the ground below...
"Heh.... You win, Gozu... I can't hold it any longer...."

Post by Gozu on May 24, 2009 0:55:23 GMT -5
"Whoa!" Gozu stops his beam and quickly swoops under her and will catch her. "Easy there. That's a long way down." Then remembering what she said. "You've been slacking off since when?"

Ava's Nimbus attempts to swoop down to catch her, but Gozu catches her. I'd assume he caught her in a cradled position in his arms, which Ava blushes at... Looking up to him, she responds....
"U-Um... Thank you.... E-Ever since we had to....you know...."

Post by Gozu on May 24, 2009 1:02:09 GMT -5
Gozu did not catch why she's blushing so he doesn't offer to put her down. Looking down at her "Since our fight with...the guy in South City?" Gozu turns his head confused. "Why?"

Post by Ava Truesdale on May 24, 2009 1:06:55 GMT -5
Ava's blush gets heavier at that, since Gozu had just ignored the fact he was still holding her in his arms.... She didn't want to be rude in the sense of just jumping out of his arms, or pushing him away... Though, she really lacked the energy to do anything at the moment...
"I-It's just..... I.... I can't kill anyone anymore.... I just can't get over it.... I have nightmares about it.... The stronger I become.... It....just.... It just makes me more of a killer..."

Post by Gozu on May 24, 2009 1:10:55 GMT -5
Gozu still oblivious to why she's blushing just addresses the situation at hand feeling he has a pretty good idea as what to say since he just had this same talk with Couric yesterday. "Those guys were evil we had no choice. You shouldn't feel bad about it."

"Did we though, Gozu.....? Did we really have to kill them....? I-I mean... I did cripple him before I threw him up to you... I should have told you to stop your attack...."
She looks away from him now, from the embarrasing situation they were in, though also from the shame of what she had done....
"It's my fault.... You didn't know he was crippled.... I should have said something...."

Gozu backs up on his nimbus and sets her down on it in front of him. Not because he realized the awkward situation, but because he wants to talk to her better. "Look you saw him that guy was practically a robot as it was had we left him alive he would have rebuilt himself or something. We had too." Gozu says in a comforting tone.

As he went to put Ava down, her eyes widen....
"N-No Gozu!"
She quickly reaches up at that, wrapping her arms around his neck, and hanging on to him. He may wonder what's wrong, though if he looks down, he'll see Ava's legs, well.... Her feet going through his Nimbus.... She was neutral, and couldn't stand, sit, etc. on his yellow Nimbus...
"U-Um.... Sorry.... It just... I can't stand on your Nimbus...." Going back to the matter at hand though, she responds, "Maybe... But, I just can't accept it.... No matter how hard I try..... I just can't kill anymore.... Never again..."

"Oh" Gozu says for the first time noticing that her cloud was gray. To make it easier on her. Gozu brings his hands back how they were so she won't have to support herself. Gozu nods his head. "Ok that's fine, but what happens the next time something like that happens? If you don't kill them they'll kill more. Could you have innocent blood on your hands?"

Ava blushes yet again once Gozu had taken her up in his arms once more....
"U-Um.... Here.... Let me just... Um.... Come here, Nimbus...."
At that, her Nimbus flutters over, and Ava manages to float out of Gozu's arms, landing on her Nimbus as it wasn't too far away, not too much energy needed to float to it. Once again sat atop her Nimbus, she looks to Gozu and responds....
"I-I.... I don't know, Gozu.... I just don't know.... You and Nai are better cut out for this, than I...."

Gozu let's her go as she her Nimbus picks her up. Gozu smiles at her. "And that's ok. I'm a trained fighter. It's in my blood to fight and kill. I get the same feeling from Nai. A beautiful girl such as yourself should be out being the prom queen not fighting off evil troops." Gozu says with a smile.

Ava blushes BRIGHT red at that, quickly looking away from Gozu at his complements.... "U-Um.... I-I... S-Shut up, Gozu...." She stands up at that, she didn't really know how to respond to that.... She sort of took it as he was poking fun at her... "W-Well, it's getting late.... We better call it a night.... I-I'll see you later, Gozu... Take care...." Not wanting the awkwardness to last any longer, Ava quickly flies away, heading back for Korin's Tower. She would wave goodbye to Gozu though at least....

Gozu nods his head. "It is getting late. Goodbye Ava, have a nice night. See ya around!" He says with a wave. Gozu turns his nimbus and flies off oblivious to the awkwardness that he indirectly caused.

Shiro left West City, still thinking about what he had seen and heard there. The man he had helped had told him what had happened. So their attackers came up from the ground? Those guys didn't look like zombies to me, though.

Shiro stops after a short while and sits down, surrounded by grass that was about two feet tall by that point. Still, it looks like things have settled down. I guess the fighting's over. And I wasn't needed. He leans back, smiling. And that means there are more people here willing to protect this planet.

Shiro's mind continues to wander. There are plenty of people here willing to defend this planet, so I can rest easy. But how many of them are going to stay around to help rebuild, I wonder?

He thought back to hwo he was just helping clear the doorway of one of the buildings. That was oddly fun, actually. I'm so used to using my strength to fight that I'm not used to this heavy lifting.
