Power Level: 2,000

Current Transformation: N/A

He was instructed to hurry over to HQ, suggesting that today was the day he would face the consequences of his misdoings. He wasn't all too worried about it, since they were in the middle of a war (they needed as many soldiers as they could get) and he did what he had for the sake of his people, costing some of them. He had been ready to put his life on the line as well as their's for the purpose of protecting their secrets and was successful in uncovering the enemy within their lines, so, all together, it wasn't too great a loss.

Tarro was there in a flash. "Someone else would go and enjoy their last day... Maybe I should've," he pondered. His starting point was a wasteland not too far from Radditsu District, since it was there where the majority of the low-class lived. He calculated it would take him, at the very minimum, three hours to get there, but he was been gravely mistaken, having gotten there in less than one. He smirked slyly, knowing the reason behind his sudden increase in speed. Good times were ahead of them, with more of their kin joining the ranks and raising up them.

Upon arriving, his palms began raining bullets. He took a deep breath and exhaled just as deeply. For all he knew, this might be the last time he would get to enjoy this fresh air and warm climate. Speaking of fresh air, it wasn't everywhere that you found air as clean as this. "This is as good as it gets," he confirmed with a chuckle. He had been places, and in none of them was the air as enjoyable. "You get used to it, though."

His last statement set him off towards the place where he would receive the higher-up's judgement. He stood with his head over his shoulders in front of the office's door and clenched his fists. With a powerful "hum!," he pushed it open and stepped inside. The sole office man there searched through his papers anxiously and said, "there it is!" pointing out his finding. "Your new orders are to head to the Borgos Bluffs. There, you have to, uhm... learn how to control the Oozaru... so that doesn't happen again." The office man looked up from his papers and his way, slightly off-put by the fact that he, the one responsible for all that destruction, was here, standing riiiight there, in front of him.

Tarro was relieved, but, at the same time, worried. "I'm not completely outta the clear, am I?" he thought. It's not that he wasn't good with leaving unpunished, but all those people... How would they feel if their murderer didn't pay? "What does it matter what they think? They're dead. They can't think." He left it at that and snapped back to reality. He had been walking through HQ and just then bumped into someone. The man looked him dead in the eyes with a resting, angry-looking frown. "Haa? Why didn't you move outta the way? Idiot." His voice was carried with an uneasy wave of calm that could just snap at any time.

Thread PL: 5,000 | Anti-Sense is on!

A trip to the Palace was always a nerve-wracking experience for rookies and recruits into the military. Knowing that the hallowed halls you walk upon are a testament to their people's history, their very efforts to remain rooted in this world, despite the opposition that greeted them. Some would gaze all around at this sacred building in awe, being reminded of what they fought for. To expand this culture, this architecture and this history to the rest of this world.

For Auber, however, this would be his... seventeenth visit to the Saiyan Palace. Now, he certainly shared that initial experience since he began his days, fighting for their cause. But since then, the excitement, the wonderment and the feeling that you were part of something bigger died down with each visit, dulled by repetitiveness.

Now it's become part of an everyday routine. It was where he went for his next assignments and nothing else. Ever since the tension lowered since the disappearance of opposing figure heads, this place was less crowded. Back when they were in full-swing war, you could barely walk three feet without bumping into somebody!

Fortunately, or rather, unfortunately, the cosmos had decided that it would be humerous to enact that particular tidbit for nostalgia. Auber looked upon the Saiyan that decided to play the agent of said cosmos' amusement. He looked to be the sort of brat that was fresh off enrolling in the military, believing the solution to all his problems was the puffing of their chest like some sort of demented peacock.

Auber was much more clever and elegant at that time, bless his intellectual superiority.

Oh right, the kid.

"Say, isn't it kind of lamentable to blame others for your own misgivings? Or do you just expect people to make time to move out of your path when they have better things to think about?" With a mocking smirk curling up on his lips, Auber sneered with derision as he spoke to the younger Saiyan. "I'm on my way to the Cliffs for my task, so I don't have time to play with imps with you right now. If you wanna fight me, then meet me at the Cliffs later today." Auber waved him off with a dismissive hand, as if writing off a miniscule bother.

His intentions were unimportant in the face of his approach, but he had enough going for him- and then came this soldier. It was only natural he snapped at him, since he must've seen him coming. He had no reason not to walk around him, on account of that Tarro guessed the guy was messing with him. His words were close to sweet, but he was in no mood for playing teacher.

"You know, what's lamentable is you having such a big mouth- and if you were so busy, you would've avoided me. You're just using me as an excuse to fight," he said smugly. Tarro's brows furrowed one bit harder than they usually looked, to the guy's ignorance, giving the impression he wasn't enjoying their conversation. He had his own share of pride and wasn't going to let this narrow-eyed guy mess with him and get away with it. If he stole away his time? Then all the better... though, even he was on a time limit "Say, was it how your eyes are shaped that you missed me, or was it your superiority complex? You think you're so big and mighty, but I bet you've never touched foot outside the capital." Otherwise, they would've run into each other once or twice by now.

Enough being enough, the man raised his hands to his nape with his fingers intertwined for the purpose of stretching his back. "I'll meet you at those cliffs... Just make sure you're not hiding your energy when I come lookin' for you," he said as he took a step back. "Dick," the thought followed. The guy was free to go if he wished to leave, but he half-expected him to come back before that.

"I'll be on my way myself," he muttered whilst separating his hands. "And there's only one exit... This guy was headed that way while I was wandering around and bumped into him," he assesed. If the other Saiyan had left, this would mean he would run into him at the exit, unless he was in the hurry he claimed to be in. "And I need to head to the Borgos Bluffs, and they're a bunch of cliffs..." It wouldn't make sense if he was sent there to train on his own. Someone else would have to be sent there to subdue him, since he was certain to lose control more than once during their training. "Way to go, dry roots. That just might've been the guy I'm supposed to meet." He scratched his head and sighed, figuring the guy wouldn't mind their interaction at the end of the day, so neither should he!

It was around the end of his train of thought that his blurple-colored scouter began beeping. Tarro turned it on and checked out what it was happening. "Hrrmn?" he sounded. The thought of this being the Queen reaching out to him about his punishment crossed his mind, so he hesitated to hear the audio file.

How adorable. This one barbed back. A decent effort, for a kid his age that was, however, all his efforts amounted to was widening the mocking smirk that adorned Auber's facial features. "Kid, I don't need an excuse to pick a fight with you. If I want to beat an imbecile like you senseless, I can just pick you up and toss you onto an isolated spot for a fight." The older Saiyan laid out, crossing his arms as if exercising patience with a petulant child. Regardless of his words towards the youngblood, Auber had to admit he liked the kid's spunk.

He wasn't too strong either. Certainly much more powerful than the average Saiyan, but compared to Auber, he fell flat. It was best to assume this was a temporary state of power though. More times than not, Saiyans will always work to get stronger and beat the competition.

Turning his gaze back to the adolescent running his mouth, "Okay, just hear me out here.. What if.. You're just that insignificant? Valid reason for missing you, no?" Auber snickered, openly making fun of the other Saiyan. Nine times out of ten, warriors his age were particularly big on their power, their egos sat primarily on their toughness and their ability to display that toughness.

Pondering on something, Auber shrugged after and piped up the interaction with a question, "Hey, brat, if you're not doing anything better with your time, which obviously you're not, how about heading to the Cliffs with me? You can watch a pro work, maybe learn something, and then we can duke it out. How's that sound?" He grinned as a challenge towards Tarro, placing a hand on his hip. He predicted the little shit would accept out of pride or try to slick his way out, again, out of pride.

Saiyans were not humble creatures, by any means.

"Hah?" he bit back. He was in the midst of checking his incoming transmission when Auber went back at talking, solidifying his belief that the older man was biting more than he could chew. "If you were as strong you claim, you would've struck when I gave you the chance to. You won't get another again." His hands behind his back act was a test to figure out whether Auber would strike when given the opportunity to, since he claimed he had places to be and he was eating up time better spent elsewhere. It turned out he was right about this guy, he was here to attempt wearing his nerves out- a tactic used by many other high-ranking officials.

"I don't have to prove my worth to a fool like you. You'll just have to see what I can do," Tarro answered. He was taught not to, but he wasn't going to let this guy, who might as well be the higher-up he was supposed to meet, get away with messing with him. A tail for a tail, they said. He would take to his ancestor's teachings and talk back, despite not being a fan of so much talking. Communication was a hungry beast that can deal blows as powerful as a punch to the weak-willed, so perhaps practicing comebacks wouldn't hurt occasionally.

Now, with their conversation out of the way, he listened to the transmission, that spoke, "you're to head to A200B13 for your training. Be hasty, time is of essence at times like these." Tarro let out one heck of a relieved sigh. "Not the Queen. Safe, for now," he thought, leading up to him checking on Auber. "We're headed the same way. Are you my instructor?- I was told I'm gettin' trained to control the Oozaru. A lot happened, and I guess they consider me more of a threat to us than to them." He stretched his right arm behind his back and grinned back. "Sure, let's see how this 'pro' does what he's good at," he raggedly agreed.

Out of the sudden, he shot forwards through glass, speeding towards the coordinates he was given, all the while watching his scouter's indications about Auber's changing location. He was sure the prideful veteran would want to close in on him to answer his questions.

He certainly had interesting ways to test someone's hostility. Though perhaps in his gusto, he forgot to remember one tiny, rather inconsequential detail that one would like to think wouldn't pull his entire plan apart. But... "Newsflash, idiot, we can't fight in the palace." Yeah, the officials were rather adamant about people starting trouble here. It's why Auber decided to have him tag along to the Cliffs in the first place.

"No, it just sounds like you have to prove your own worth to yourself, first." Ah, aiming for the insecurity of power. Low-blow, Auberino, but an effective tactic in the art of verbal warfare. Saiyans were very proud of many things, but their power and fighting prowess ranked at the very top. To be a weakling is a fate few choose to embrace. Auber observed with interest as the younger Saiyan convered on the Scouter.

Hoh. So the young-blood was going to be heading the same way regardless if Auber challenged him or not. Perfect. And it seems his gung-ho attitude once more got the best of him as he shot through the glass that some poor worker most likely wasted hours of their day on. With a grin of his own, Auber shot out of that same made exit.

Once outside, he didn't immediately close in on Tarro. He could, yes, but why bother? Especially when he can do stuff like this. Cupping one hand on one side of his mouth, Auber took a breath and then shouted..

"Hey, moron!"

He merely floated with the usage of his ki, grinning at the hot-blooded Saiyan contemptuously.

"That's the wrong way!"

With that, his grin died down to something more casual and lazy, and he gave a two-fingered salute before speeding off towards the correct direction. Demonstrating to Tarro his own speed as his aura flared into a crimson-coloured ball of colour in the motion. He didn't go full-speed though, courtesy of his curiosity on if the other Saiyan will recover enough from his blunder to catch up to him.

They couldn't fight in the palace? Those were news to the starting-out soldier. "It doesn't matter. We'll just fight at the Bluffs," he answered. Auber's insults went to deaf ears; he had been on his way out when he spoke.

He realized he was headed the wrong way thanks to Auber's shouting. He had never really understood what A or B stood for, and instead occasionally checked his scouter to figure out whether he was close or not. Tarro exploded in white chi prior to speeding after Auber, who he would've caught up to. The experienced soldier was exactly five feet ahead of him, had he decided not to speed up in reaction to his closing the gap.

Out of nowhere, the battle-weathered lad raised his left hand to fire a condensed energy sphere that shot after Auber at speeds far beyond what either of them could muster through flight alone. He grinned, knowing this would be a tough blow to Auber's momentum, and hopefully pride. He deserved it for all that talking without anything to back it up.

"Idiot," he murmured.

Tarro sped around Auber, taking the long way to avoid being surprised by any of his attempts. He knew the battle was not over yet. I mean, besides Tuffles, who could die to a homing explosive blast?

Tarro fires a Charged Blast (Renamed Galaxy Breaker) with Homing properties through Tactician for 2,000 damage! Tarro's anger amplified this attack's power! The transformation: Anger (x5) was used for solely this turn!

The younger lad caught up to Auber in a few moments. He might have been weaker but the gap wasn't that big so he supposed he'd need to put just a bit of effort into teaching this whelp who the superior fighter between them was. At the very least, it'd teach him a lesson and would probably put some drive in his life.

Auber was doing him a favour really. Imagine being so kind.

His eyes snapped to the whelp once he sensed Ki being built up somewhere, finding Tarro with his hand outstretched, about to shoot him with what looked to be a forming-sphere of energy. How amusing. It didn't take him long at all to try to turn the stage to his favour.

Auber was sort of proud, actually, many Saiyans have a bit of a one-track mind when it comes to winning or losing and may not think outside of the box. Unfortunately, for Tarro, Auber wasn't one of them and is just as adept at pulling someone's leg to drag them down the mountain, before climbing over them.

With a thrilled grin, Auber also built up a sphere of energy into his right hand, which was aimed at the younger Saiyan. Despite being a bit behind the opposing sphere, Auber fired it anyways. The purplish-red orb collided with his opponent's in a brief clash, that ended up with the two spheres disappearing, as if fizzling out.

"Hahahaha! Gonna have to try harder than that, kid!" Auber laughed, hoping Tarro could hear him over all the wind and attacks. The older Saiyan continued to be ahead of his opponent.

The charged blast completed its goal of slowing Auber down. Tarro shot his energy outwards to stop mid-air and cup his hands up-front. A clear-blue sphere swirled into existence and charged up to its maximum power, shifting the flow of the air. His energy levels raised as he charged up his attack, which would've been picked up by Auber had he the means to, those being a scouter or the ability to feel others out. He smirked. "He's in range and my attack is faster than he moves, and his back is turned..." This was a to-take-for-granted hit if he had ever seen out.

Without shouting out his beam's name, it flowed through the sky at an amazing pace, catching up to the fleeting Auber in hopes of shooting him down. Had he been hit, his back would be scorched and a scar resembling a spiral would remain.

"How's that for a change?!" he roared. He waited to see whether his overpowered attack gave him the edge or not. The other fighter had been taking him for a weakling. His Galaxy Breaker was meant to show him that, in a battle, he wasn't one to mess around. He was taking this challenge seriously and would do everything in his power to get to the cliffs first!

"I've got to win! He was right... If I can't prove my power to myself, then I can't speak about showing it to him," he thought. As much as he didn't want to agree with this ass, he had a point. He guessed it came with experience or age, or maybe both!

KP: 4/6

MP: 2/6 -> 4/6 -> 2/6

HP: 0/250%

Tarro amasses enough energy for a Galaxy Breaker (30%) and fires it off at Auber's unguarded back for 600 potential damage!
He spends 2 momentum on a power boost for his attack!
