"Okay. What?" Shen forms a purple ki sword out of his hand. It has the shape of a sword, but it's not exactly even at the edges... it just has spikes of energy gathered where the edges would be. "What about it?" the judge asks.

"Am I allowed to use this in the ring?" Shen asks. "If you use it like a real sword, yes," the judge responds. "Wait... So I'm allowed to hold it in my hand?" "Yes. But you can't use it like a sword. You can throw it, since it's technically a ki attack if you do that."

"But attempt to slash or stab people with it, and we'll have to disqualify you," the judge warns. "Okay. Thanks for filling me in." "No problem. Train hard. You really have become a strong fighter since you were brought here. Don't beat yourself over it too much," the judge says, trying to make Shen feel better.

"Yeah. It's just this damn poison in my body. If I could kick all of it out right now... then I'd be right up there with those guys right now. And hell, I would have probably achieved a bunch of Super Saiyan levels by now." Shen and the judge nod to each other. He walks over to where he was earlier and sits there.

Shiro's body was soon released from it's hold. He stood there, keeping track of Issilude's ki as he travels through space, more than a little worried. Hope that kid's okay. He's not exactly the strongest there is.

Couric sat near Julia and Gozu, eyes closed as he tried to concentrate. But every dozen or so minutes, he swore he could hear something screaming at him...and his eye began to twitch, calm expression becoming one of annoyance.

The body of Tyson's arriaves, and he is now here as well as hoping not to late.

Gozu looks up as Tyson arrives he has been talking with Shiro, Julia, and Couric for the past few hours but now he's getting bored he wants it to start. He counts the fighters and counts seven. Who's missing? Gozu thinks as he walks over the tournament tree to see.

He doesn't have to look far to find out who isn't there. He had only skimmed through till he found his name so he didn't really read it so he missed Blaze's name right there on the top spot. Hmmm...I thought he would be here especially with the prize Gozu thinks as he walks back to the group.

Julia was getting bored with all this waiting, and after finding out the cause, she walked up to Couric, saying... "Turns out we've gotta wait for some guy called Blaze... what is taking him so long?!"

"Don't know." Couric replied simply, looking up towards the android.
"Then again, this wait isn't as bad as it was when I participated in the tournament on Earth...The wait for each match to finish seemed like days passing slowly..."

"Hmm... I remember finding out about the winner of that one... wasn't his name Blaze, too? Is he the same Blaze who's supposed to be here?" Such gripping questions.

"No clue...I've never met the Blaze who won the tournament on Earth. I was disqualified for a double knockout." He replied, grinning sheepishly as he scratched the back of his head.
"Could be, though."

"Hmm... well if he won one tournament... why's he not willing to show up for another?" She sounds impatient... but it's a rhetorical question.

"Who knows." Couric shrugged, pausing as he realized something.
"Wow...You really wanna fight in the tournament, don't you, Julia?" The teen asked, a bit surprised by the fact.

Julia blinks... she blinks again... "Oh..." A slight feeling of confusion starts to wash over her... "I... don't know... this is strange... I don't really enjoy fighting that much... or I didn't... maybe it has something to do with my latest power release..." But now she notices... something could be worrisome.

"Heh...You sure there isn't Saiyan in you, Julia?" He joked, glancing up towards the sky. He hadn't really noticed that the sky on Namek was green before, not that he really cared since it seemed just like Earth's...except for the two suns.
"I wonder when I'll have to fight Gozu."

Julia lets out a little laugh, and says... "Well... I'm definitely human... no tail here... but..." She suddenly makes a few quick palm strikes at the air... Couric might almost fall over from the force of the air being disturbed by her strikes. ...then she stands still again... "Hm... something about that was pleasing... this is definitely very strange... oh, and if you fight Gozu, it'll be in the finals... I uh... checked the match-ups..." Her voice sounded a little bit... awkward... all of a sudden.

Couric watched as Julia struck the air, eyes widening a bit. He could barely follow the movements of her hands.
/She's definitely improved.../ And then he paused as he heard her, a brow raising in confusion.
"Eh? If I fight Gozu, it'll be in the finals...?"

"Well... yeah... he's in the later half... you're in the earlier half... and your first opponent..." "Never expected this to happen, but how am I supposed to say this without it sounding awkward?"

"Alright! So I'll get an epic fight when I make it to the finals!" Couric exclaimed, pumping a fist into the air.
/Against Gozu's full strength, I'll have to fight all out if I even want to stand a chance. He's nearly as strong as Cajabe is.../ He definitely seemed confident that he'd make it to the finals without a trouble...though he didn't know who he'd be facing first...
"Oh...Right, you were saying, Julia?"

"Yeah... okay... your first opponent..." She shifts uncomfortably for a few moments in silence, and finally says... "...is me."

"...You?" Couric repeated, blinking as his expression turned blank. He didn't exactly quite know what to say to that, remembering the first time they had fought.
And almost immediately, his face turned red as he remembered just where he had accidentally hit during that fight.

"Yeah... we're fighting straight off the bat... awkward... huh?" She was blushing a little, herself... but not for the same reason...

Post by unholylssj on Jul 6, 2009 7:49:24 GMT -5
"Y-Yeah..." Couric muttered, a sweatdrop running down the back of his face. He couldn't even imagine what would happen if they fought again...and all of a sudden, he began to wish that Gozu was his first round opponent...

"Anyway... I think I can keep up with a Super Saiyan pretty easy now... so it should be a good fight... even though it'll be awkward as hell..." She'd say, trying to avoid silence.

"Definitely awkward as hell...but it could be far worse." The teen said, trying to drive away the awkwardness and a certain memory.
"B-Besides...the important thing is that it'll be one hell of a good fight..."

"Yeah, and I'll finally get to see how strong I've become. If I can take you on, then maybe I'll be able to be more useful with the whole hero thing." She seems pretty determined... but definitely not a saiyan.

/More useful...?/
"I'm sure you've become really strong, Julia. Even if I can't sense your energy at all.." He trailed off towards the end, having completely forgotten that Julia's level of strength couldn't be detected by normal means.

"Oh, that reminds me... remember when I first learned to see Power Levels? Well... mine's... about one-hundred and seventy thousand... almost. And yours is... uhh..." "One-hundred and sixty thousand?!" She can't finish her sentence... in complete disbelief that she's stronger than Couric... but maybe it's because he's holding his power back... unlike Julia, he can't maintain his full power all the time. Yeah, that's right. "...well, as you are now... it's one-hundred and sixty thousand."
