18.
Shen's aura completely fades as Harvest comes back, and his ki level drops quite a bit, down to weakened. He manages to say, "Finally... I got you... you-" Before falling back, completely unconscious. If it wasn't for the fact that all his stamina is pretty much gone by sustaining kaioken x12, final impact and the ki loss from Harvest's tail, he'd still be fighting. The use of his life force weakened his body enough as well.

Harvest blinks... thankful that Shen passed out upon use of such an insanely overpowerful technique. He let his charge down, and walked toward Shen, while thinking... "I can't kill him in a place like this. As much as I want to after something like that. Damn him. How did he achieve such power?" He growled a little, and collapsed forward on his knees, propping himself up with his arms, while blood dripped from his face.
Soon enough, the healers would arrive to fix up Shen and Harvest. Shen would probably even gain enough ki back to wake up some time without feeling like he'd just woken up from hitting a speeding train.

Shen kip ups, not being the kind of person that remains unconscious after healing. Enthusiastic, he says to Harvest, "That was fun! I had no idea I could sustain kaioken like that... but I just need to get a little pissed off. Although... that last attack I did... still trying to figure out what happened there," he says, scratching his head.

"Right." Harvest doesn't seem too pleased with the end of the battle, walking away and not even looking at Shen. He makes his way to the edge of the arena, and returns to meditation. Nice guy. Real nice guy.

"Well hey!" Shen shouts, but still enthusiastic. "You did get what you wanted! My best attack!" He then walks inside the building, and decides he might grab a bite to eat. My match is next, so I can't leave this place to train. I guess I'll have to train right outside the Lookout.

Harvest is just silently floating, with his arms and legs folded, while blue energies emanate from his body gently. He's ignoring Shen.

Julia reappeared in the area she was before, and found some place to sit down... Gozu and Shiro were still fighting, it seemed. "Come back safe, Couric."

Julia was walking back and forth most of the time, only glancing at Gozu and Shiro's fight occasionally. She did feel pretty good when she heard Gozu had won, but was still worried about Couric.

Gozu was carried in here by a couple of Namekians healers after they had healed Gozu of all his wounds. His clothes aren't in the best shape and he's missing a boot cause he blew up when he fired a foot beam. For now he just rests peacefully in the room.

Julia would walk over and sit down next to Gozu, waiting for him to get back up... her mind is elsewhere the whole time, though.

Julia will hear a slight groan as Gozu wakes up laying down. "Man....what a great fight!" Gozu says excitedly as he raises up slowly a smile on his face. He then sees Julia. "Hey Julia!" Gozu says equally excited to see her.

"Hey Gozu... you got knocked out and you're in a good mood about it?! Wow. Heh." She smiles, but something seems wrong. She seems like she's trying, only a little bit, to act normally.

"Are you kidding me? That was an amazing fight! Came down to the wire. I'm happy I had that energy charged already otherwise I probably would have lost." Gozu says all rushed and happy from the thrill of a good fight. Then he frowns slightly "Are you okay Julia?"

"Oh... me...? Yeah... just got a lot on my mind, right now... an awful lot..." The act starts to melt away, but she's still trying to hold on to her smile, though she lost eye contact a moment ago.

Gozu doesn't say anything for a couple seconds not sure if he should push the issue. He decides it can't hurt to ask. "You wannna talk about it?" He asks gently and soft. Wonder what's on her mind?

"Hmmm..." Julia struggles for a moment on the answer, and then turns to Gozu. Her expression saying 'help me'. "It's a lot of things... it's all hitting me at once..."

Gozu can see the look on her face and he wants to help he's just not sure how. He can would take on an army of Changelings for her but talk about feelings and such isn't exactly Gozu's strong suit. "Well...I'm here for you...maybe I could take a couple of these hits with you..."

"Well... heh, thanks but... I know you won't be able to take any hits for me against that Blue Nai I've gotta fight. I'm worried about my match against him... something's strangely familiar about him, beyond his appearance and his ki signature..." "This is easy enough to talk about..."

Post by Gozu on Jul 10, 2009 17:50:25 GMT -5
Gozu nods his head. "Yeah I don't like him. Just something about him gives me the creeps." Gozu doesn't mention how Harvest looks at her not wanting to worry her more. "But don't worry you beat Couric and the blue Nai as you call him isn't in the same league as Couric...heck he's not even in the same sport. You'll wipe the floor with him"

"Yeah..." Her head drops, though. "Somehow, I'm just not so sure, though. It's like... I know how it's going to happen... but I don't... it makes no sense, Gozu."

Gozu doesn't quite know what to say to that. She seems quite sure of herself. "Well all you can do is play your game and don't worry about it but if by some miracle he beats you...I'll make sure I hit'em a few times for you in the finals".

Julia smiles just a little. "Thanks, Gozu." She would then let out a long sigh, her mind still troubled by other things, too... Gozu will see she's not all that much her usual self, still.

Gozu would shove her playfully on the shoulder. "Awww...come one Julia cheer up! We both won our first round matches....in fact we should celebrate." Gozu says not knowing what they could do to celebrate but Julia needs something to cheer her up.

Julia's body rocks a little and then back to the way she was sitting before. She turns to look at Gozu in all his cheerfulness and optimism, wishing it were all that simple. "I'd love to, but... Gozu... another thing... Cajabe showed up while you were fighting." WTF?!

Post by Gozu on Jul 10, 2009 18:05:41 GMT -5
What?....how did I not sense that? I must have been concentrating too much on my fight "Wait....where's Couric?" Gozu asks realzing that he wasn't around. "Did Cajabe take him?" Gozu asks not letting on how worried he really is.

Post by Katatonia on Jul 10, 2009 18:08:26 GMT -5
Julia decided to explain everything; after a moment to take in a breath and prepare herself, of course. "Cajabe's King wanted to see him and Couric use the Fusion technique and fight him one-on-one. So Cajabe arrived to collect Couric... I went with them, of course, and saw everything... even though I was restrained the whole time by the King's guards." She'd give Gozu a moment, and then say some more in a second.

So King Vegeta wanted to see Couric's and Cajabe's fusion. Makes sense it's a new challenge. Gozu nods his head to Julia showing that he had understood all of it. "And?" Gozu says in case she wasn't sure.

"Well, you'd be amazed... they actually tied... they broke almost every bone in the King's body, but before they could pull off their finishing attack, they split in two. But... the thing is, the King made a wager..." This is where it gets awkward... clear in her voice.

Post by Gozu on Jul 10, 2009 18:18:06 GMT -5
Gozu looks a mixture of shocked and impressed that the fusion actually hurt King Vegeta. He had heard that Vegeta was incredibly strong. Gozu nods his head again showing that he's ready for more.

"Well, the fusion seemed really arrogant about his power at first, even though he was still way over his head... but then he decided to say that he had one final trick up his sleeve. An attack that could break every bone in the King's body... the King was curious and let them give it a shot, but said that if even one bone isn't broken... well... this is difficult..." Julia seems to be struggling a little, now.
