Fukushu realized in the air that his attack wouldn't work. The Saiyan was too fast, or maybe he was too slow; was age finally catching up to him? No, he just telegraphed his intentions too much. He could have done better; he should have done better, but now he had to deal with the consequences. As he pushed forward with his blade it was met by Lottus' own strike, and though he pushed hard he quickly found himself overwhelmed by the Saiyan's prowess; his attack was simply more powerful than his own.

His blade shatters under the pressure, leaving himself open for Lottus to stab at his shoulder. A sheer cold is what he felt as his skin was pierced; it was the complete opposite of the hell fire that Derry had put him through. The Saiyan's blade cut right down to the bone, and it may not have stopped at that if Fukushu hadn't pulled away.

"Uaaaagh."

He didn't want to let out a cry, but considering how well Lottus was doing he had earned to hear it. The Heran hopped several steps back and covered his new wound with his left hand. Fukushu squeezed his right hand three or four times, with each one feeling weaker than the last. He still had functionality with his arm but every movement came with a new pain. "You've done well to surpass my expectations, but as you say we were fairly evenly matched. I say you've earned access to a bit more of my strength."

He had been holding back a significant amount of his power in order to make things a fair fight, but war wasn't fair. Lottus was still leagues below Derry, and even his female lackey and Celerous were near double of what Lottus could produce. Would he actually be able to challenge them, or would he only serve as a distraction?

Dropping his left arm back to the side, Fukushu pushed apart his legs and powered up. He wasn't going to let everything out just yet; this fight still had plenty left to go, but he ready to give himself a real advantage now. A quick flash of his aura appeared around him, but just as soon as it had come it was gone again. It wasn't near the maximum of what he could produce, but it should be enough to produce a real gap. "Now... allow me to start."

The Heran rushed forward; his new power provided some needed improvement to his wounded shoulder, though it was still clearly lagging behind his left. He came at Lottus in a flurry, firing off a variety of quick strikes at the Saiyan before finishing off the combination by planting himself of the ground, winding up and throwing forward a huge left high kick aimed at his temple.

There was a satisfying pop and Fukushu's skin gave way to Lottus' Ki Blade, and it sank a fair amount into his flesh before the Heran pulled away. He had hoped to disable the arm altogether, but this would suffice. The groan of pain from the Heran causes Lottus to lick his bleeding lip again, and he feels the chill of excitement shoot up his spine. Lottus stands still, watching as the Fukushu tests the arm for viability, and was pleased to see that he had damaged some of the nerve endings.

"So I've gone from not impressed, to surpassing expectations? My, this has been a good spar then." Lottus replies with a dark chuckle. "Let's have it then."

When Fukushu powered up, Lottus could feel it. It wasn't a great deal higher, but it would change the course of the fight. It was also at a familiar level - the Saiyan half breed, Dark, had this level of power when Lottus encountered them. Now, faced with a similar level of power, Lottus could properly test and gauge his own progress. He rolls his shoulders, and stretches out his legs in preparation, never taking his eyes off the Heran.

Lottus slips off his battle jacket, now garbed only in his black form fitting pants, boots, and bracers. He unfurls his long, black tail, allowing it to swing loosely. His torso is a story of scars - dozens of small scars denoting blaster wounds, and ragged slashing scars. The most prominent of them, is a large X shaped scar that runs across his pectoral muscles and down to just above his hips. A newer scar overlaps that - a straight horizontal slash just below his sternum. It was still slightly pink in discoloration having only recently healed. And though his back was hidden by his long hair, many more scars litter his back as well.

Lottus falls into his combat ready stance once more as Fukushu launches forth. This time, Lottus was only barely able to defend against the blows. Many strikes slip through Lottus' defenses, until finally the kick catches Lottus full in the side of the head. Lottus feels his body flipping sideways, and shoots out a hand to catch the floor. He curls his legs in for an instant, and then thrusts both feet at Fukushu's left knee, hoping to catch the Heran and possibly dislocate the knee if he was lucky.

Even if the blow worked, Lottus was still reeling from the heavy kick to his head. He rights his posture and takes to the air, trying to create distance to allow himself to recuperate.

Lottus threw down his coat, revealing a lifetime's worth of scars across his body. No doubt each one had their own story, and had Fukushu removed his own coat then the same would have been seen across his own body. The burns from Derry's fires had muddled many of them, but the memories remained. He thought back to the many battles of Hera he had been apart of; some for good causes, but most for his own wealth or pride. How had Lottus earned his scars?

His flurry of attacks was successfully in penetrating the Saiyan's guard, and his head kick was the cherry on top. Instantly Lottus looked uneasy, though he still found the senses to launch his own attack. Maybe it wasn't sense though; maybe it was just instincts. Either way the shot to Fukushu's knee landed, buckling the Heran and forcing him to the ground as he fell onto his back.

The pain from the strike washed over him, distracting him as Lottus took to the air. He looked down and thankfully he saw no bone protruding, but he knew that trying to stand on it right now would be a waste of time. For the moment he was stuck on the ground, staring up at his foe, but he didn't need to stand to strike him down. Fukushu raised both arms up and locked his fingers just slightly above his head, all the while gathering energy from throughout his body.

Slowly a ball of Ki would form in his hands, starting at the size of an apple and growing soon to that of a basketball. When it was ready Fukushu would take hold and hurl the ball of energy at Lottus, still from his back. Before his shot would make contact with Lottus he'd pull his hands apart, and in doing so his attack would also break apart, splitting off into dozens of smaller spheres which would encircle and strike at the Saiyan from every angle.

Lottus had to shake his head several times to throw off the dizzying sensation, and allow his vision to focus properly. Before he could properly react to Fukushu's attack, the blast was already upon the Saiyan! It was all Lottus could do to protect himself - there was no time to gather his power - so he drew his arms and legs close, and disappeared in the flash of explosions.

The Saiyan is hurled from the cloud of smoke that came from the blasts, and bounces hard off the wall shielding. He falls unceremoniously to the floor, bouncing off the surface once before coming to a rest. His skin is seared, and varying degrees of burns - some still sizzling - pock his exposed skin. Growling, Lottus forces himself to his feet, albeit slowly. He wobbles on his back foot a moment, his head and arms hanging down. His body seems to be shaking; whether from fear or pain was not immediately clear.

Suddenly, Lottus throws his head back, laughing manically at the ceiling for several chilling moments.

"Now that hurt!" he laughs, dragging his eyes back down to lock onto Fukushu. Blood seeps from many of the burns, giving Lottus the look of a man who had just survived being set on fire. "I guess I can stop holding back as well. I still wont transform - but I'll show you my best without it!"

Saiyan Pride has activated! +10% to all Techniques!

Energy Drink x1 is consumed to fully fill KP! (Flavored as his power flaring)

Lottus' aura explodes around him, dazzling the room with a crimson glow. It was NOT, however, the same as the crimson and black aura so notable when his Wrathful state is active. His muscles become chorded with thick veins, tightening against his skin. His power levels remain much the same - but clearly some limitations on his power had suddenly given way like dams breaking in a hurricane.

Lottus rockets towards Fukushu, returning the Heran's flurry of melee strikes with a veritable whirlwind of his own. Lottus ends the flurry of strikes with an elbow aimed at Fukushu's sternum, and quickly hops away and into the air. He raises his right hand, and much like before, his Ki swirls up his arm. But this time, a massive ball of evil looking crimson and black energy expands to the size of a small house!

The ball of evil energy was one of his strongest attacks, second only to his mightiest technique. Lottus hurls the ball of Ki down at Fukushu, threatening to envelope the Heran in a massive, devastating explosion!

Lottus endures Fukushu's attack, suffering 88% damage!

The Heran's multi-sphere attack worked brilliantly, throwing Lottus down to the floor and giving Fukushu time to recover. Though his knee was still in pain it seemed to be capable of bearing some weight now. Fukushu got himself up to his knees before stopping to take a breather, still somewhat exhausted after that attack. It was at that moment that Lottus declared his intent to power up further, which intrigued Fukushu. Apparently the Saiyan too had a way to grow more powerful without increasing his power level.

The Saiyan's dominant aura flooded the room with a red-black light; his muscles bulged in a way not too dissimilar from his own power up. Somehow though this form seemed even superior to his own, which was just another way in which the Saiyan surprised and surpassed the expectations put on him by Fukushu.

That amazement was quickly overpowered by fear as Lottus launched his attack, firing a barrage of strikes in quick succession that Fukushu struggled to deal with. Though superior in battle power the Heran found himself winded and letting in more shots than he was blocking. The shot to the sternum threw him back down to the ground, this time landing face first. Fukushu's rich red blood stained the floor as his forehead skidded across, being reminded of the still very much open wound across his face.

By the time he had rolled over Lottus had already powered up his next attack, holding an enormous sphere of energy up above his head. Fukushu had no idea how the Saiyan had managed to find the energy for this sort of power, but right now he had to worry about defending it. As Lottus launched his attack Fukushu got back up to one knee and extended out his arms, hoping that he may be able to catch the attack and send it right back at Lottus.

In an instant the sphere made contact with Fukushu's hands; he could hear the searing and charring of his palms already. As much as he tried to bear down and hold his own the power of Lottus in this instant was too much to handle; Fuksuhu was forced to pull back his arms, throw them around his chest and pray that it was enough to survive. With nothing stopping the sphere's trajectory it pushes on forward and slams into Fukushu.

A chaotic storm erupts from the impact, causing an alarm to go off in the room. The shields protecting the training hall and forced into maximum charge, and the entrances to the secondary rooms are shut off for protection. For a moment Fukushu forgot where he was, but it was that alarm that brought him back. When the dust covering his body cleared away he saw Lottus looking down on him, and remembered that battle waited for no one.

Slowly, but surely, Fukushu rolled onto his stomach, momentarily hiding the brand new burns that Lottus had painted across his stomach and chest. He tried pushing himself up with his right arm, but his weakened shoulder gave out and he face planted into the cold, unforgiving steel of the Acheron. He tried again, but this time with his left, managing to make it back to his knees. He looked up at the Saiyan, and wondered whether or not he was happy that Fukushu had survived, or disappointed he hadn't killed the Heran.

"Once again you surpass expectations, and in doing so surpass even me. But I am not yet defeated." Part of him was humiliated, to be humbled by someone so much weaker than him. Even if he were suppressing his power he still should've had enough to deal with Lottus. But the thrill of battle was something he craved, and not a cowards battle like Derry had lured him into. A one on one battle; two men fighting for nothing but to test each other. That was what he had missed in his life for so long.

And so the battle called, and Fukushu answered. Using his left arm to support himself Fukushu pushed back onto his feet and threw down his shirt, mostly in tatters after that last assault. He slowly hovered into the air in order to match Lottus' position, and without hesitation launched his next attack. His flurry this time wasn't as quick as before, and his attack was more lethargic. But it was no less aggressive as he came at Lottus with a barrage of strikes, relentlessly pushing forward in an effort to pin him against the walls.

The dazzling thunderous roaring as his blast exploded upon the Heran brings an energized smile to Lottus' face. He had been experimenting with that power, and had not had the opportunity to really test it in a real combat scenario. If nothing else, the Heran was aiding Lottus in discovering how to truly tap his own power more efficiently. When Fukushu proclaimed further of being impressed, and then of his not yet to being defeated, Lottus smiles.

"Kai's above, I hope not." Lottus guffaws. "But don't stroke my ego - I am well aware of how outclassed I actually am in this. Now, COME!!"

And Fukushu did just that. Injured though he was, and the slower for it, Lottus was in no better condition. Lottus met Fukushu's charge, and collides his left forearm against the Heran's first thrown fist. Lottus takes more blows than he can deliver upon the Heran, but even as the sting of Fukushu's assault came, Lottus was thoroughly enjoying the bout. One of Fukushu's blows catch Lottus across the face, making his head whip away, and Lottus catches himself from being knocked away, and flies back into the fray with reckless abandon.

Some of the power Lottus had enhanced bleeds away during the melee as the Saiyan became increasingly exhausted, but he was not soon to yield. He could call on that additional power when it was necessary; for now, he needed to conserve energy. Lottus brings his right knee up at Fukushu's stomach - if it should land, Lottus would follow the blow by clasping his hands together, and bringing them hard into Fukushu's back between the shoulders!

Fukushu made it clear that Lottus had surprised and impressed him - but now Lottus sought something with more substance; he sought to gain the Heran's respect. This was but the next step - he would eventually settle things with Rhapsody, and the next time he and the demon Sankishin Kamae met, the battle would end very differently. He would see to it.

Back and forth the two warriors went, neither one able to maintain the upper hand for long. Fukushu was surprised yet again, though for the first time in the battle that surprise had been disappointment. It seemed that unlike himself, Lottus was unable to maintain this powered up form, as the Heran could clearly see the transformation having an adverse affect on the Saiyan. His muscles were beginning to wither back down to their usual size, though even that was still impressive.

"You've not learnt to master the form? A shame." The Saiyan brought his knee up to Fukushu's stomach, slamming it hard into his abdomen. The shot forced the Heran to keel over, but he wouldn't Lottus follow up. Being still in the air, Fukushu would let the momentum carry him as he rolled over Lottus' knee so that the two were face to face. He brought his weakened right arm up across his body to protect himself from the Saiyan's strike.

Though the shot still slammed hard into his chest he at least had some sort of protection from this position. With his left arm still free Fukushu would attempt to slaw his elbow into the jaw of Lottus. If he was able to rattle the Saiyan then he'd follow up by straightening his body out, grabbing a hold of Lottus' right leg and throwing him into the ground, where he'd follow up with a diving elbow drop.

The elbow that whips into his jaw momentarily stops his assault of the Heran, making Lottus see stars before his eyes and make his ears ring. The next thing he knew, Lottus was being dragged suddenly by the leg, and hurled down. Lottus manages to turn over during the fall, slamming hard against his back rather than on his face and chest. Even still, the impact knocks the air temporarily from Lottus' lungs. Thus, he was wholly unprepared for when Fukushu came down with a vicious elbow drop.

The elbow struck Lottus square in the chest, causing Lottus to spasm and hack up blood. He curls his legs up, setting his feet to Fukushu's chest, and thrusts them forth. This would both shove Fukushu away, and allow Lottus to slide away in the opposite direction on the floor.

Despite being unable to breath, Lottus grits his teeth, and throws up his left hand. He takes aim at Fukushu, and fires a thick beam of Ki at the Heran. Gasping in ragged breaths, Lottus rolls over onto his right arm, sucking in air in as much as the almost collapsed lungs would permit. Punching the floor a few times to rile himself up, Lottus pushes off the floor and turns to the Heran.

But his coal black eyes are not dark with anger - they gleam with the pleasure of having combat he was able to really enjoy! Lottus wobbles on his feet, but catches himself and lets out an animalistic roar - both to further hype himself up, and to announce that he too was far from being defeated just yet.

Fukushu's throw and elbow dropped worked perfectly, though as it expected it was still far too little to finish the Saiyan off. He was pleased at that however, as he still felt as though this fight had plenty of life left in it yet. Before the Heran can push advantage Lottus is able to shove the Heran off of him and scoot away, freeing up enough space to fire off a quick energy wave. The speed in which the wave barrels toward him is too fast for Fukushu to properly defend himself, leaving himself open for the attack to fire directly into his chest.

The force of the energy wave hurls Fukushu across the room and into the far wall; his back clattered against unwavering steel. He thought that elbow drop would have taken him out for longer, but that was little more than wishful thinking. As soon as Fukushu made it back to his feet he spotted the Saiyan standing across the hall from him, letting out a thunderous roar.

Despite the gap in power between the two of them if was the Saiyan who still held the overall advantage. The skin covering Fukushu's chest had been rearranged several times over courteously of Lottus, and his right arm was beginning to lose it's function; every passing second it became more numbed. That wasn't even mentioning the open gash that ran down the middle of his face; far nastier than anything he had managed to give Lottus.

The Saiyan was right to roar. Right now it appeared as though he had nothing to fear; Fukushu needed to change that. The Heran kept his right arm down to his side as he charged the Saiyan once again. This time there'd be no fancy Ki attacks in motion; instead it was an old fashioned clothesline coming in from his left arm, and thrown with enough force to rip a man in two.

Lottus can feel the muscles in his legs twitching, though he ignores the sensation to keep his attention upon Fukushu. His blast had the intended effect; every bit of damage he could muster against Fukushu mattered. At this point, the Heran probably already had it in mind that Lottus could be useful - but that wasn't enough. Lottus wants to be part of the real fighting, not just told to go and deal with the refuse like he had been with Vocado.

He had no intention of being relegated to grunt fighting. But when Fukushu rockets forth, Lottus could only throw his arms up to protect his neck and head as the Heran's clothesline takes the Saiyan clear off his feet. Lottus tumbles back head over heels twice before catching the floor with his feet, and slamming his hands down to slow his momentum, skidding to a halt. The impact had nearly cracked the bones in his forearms, and Lottus was beginning to have difficulty getting back to his feet.

But manage to his feet he did, and Lottus slams his fists together four times in challenge. Flying was going to expend his strength at this point, so Lottus crouches, arms held wide and fingers curled like talons. He runs at the Heran, coming in low like a beast charging it's prey, and begins throwing harsh left and right haymakers aimed at Fukushu's head and sides in an attempt to simply batter the Heran!

Fukushu's clothesline was successful in taking the Saiyan off his feet, yet as he turned to face him he found Lottus somehow back on his feet once more. It wasn't just the fighting strength that was on display here; it was a level of resolve that would be needed soon. He was asking Lottus to follow him into battles where they'd no doubt be the underdog, fighting against foes who would likely outnumber them, and right now he was proving that he could handle those odds.

The rush forward came soon after, with the Saiyan aggressively moving forward and throwing a variety of strikes his way. Lefts and rights were coming his way, and though he was able to block most there were still a few that managed to eek through his guard. His weakened shoulder meant that the right side of his face was more exposed than his left, and Lottus took full advantage of that as he curved a strong left hook around his high guard. The shot cracked the Heran right on the chin, wobbling his legs and causing him to tumble back.

Once against he found himself seeing stars, unable to think properly, but that's what instincts were for. Hopefully now Lottus would see the weakened opportunity as more encourage to rush in; if so he'd have prepared a counter uppercut for the Saiyan upon getting within range.

Sparking Water consumed - MP now fully refilled!

MAX POWER activated! +10% to all techniques!

Lottus, fueled by his battle fervor, seems to forego his earlier caution and moves forward to continue pummeling away at Fukushu. But the Heran had an answer, and Lottus was caught wholly by the attack. Fukushu's fist connects with Lottus' chin, making the Saiyan's head snap back violently. Lottus is lifted off his feet and falls to the ground in a heap. For a moment, Lottus was too rattled to do anything by lay there on the metal floor and heave heavy breaths.

Blood wells up in his mouth, and Lottus coughs harshly, spewing the blood across the floor in front of his face. Groaning, Lottus rolls onto his chest and shakily pushes himself onto his hands and knees. Lottus growls, and manages to slowly push himself back up onto his feet, and turn to the Heran once again.

"...If this is what constitutes as training for you... then consider me sold!" Lottus says, grinning broadly. Despite his face being a mess of blood, and his body ravaged by bleeding burns, the Saiyan seemed very pleased with the bout so far. "If this next effort doesn't work... well, I'll worry about that after!"

Lottus straightens his posture, and tenses. Once again, his muscles grow, and his veins pop up all across his body as his form takes on a crimson glow. Lottus unleashes another bellowing roar as his power skyrockets!

Spending 4mp to use Transformation Boost, raising his PL from 34,000 to 68,000 for this turn only!

Lottus lets out a long sigh as his power escalates and finally stabilizes. Showing a wicked smile, Lottus extends his right arm, and Ki snakes down from his shoulder and to his hand. Once more, a long blade of pure energy extends from his finger tips. The Saiyan berserker's aura flares as he blasts off the floor and rockets towards Fukushu with renewed speed beyond what he had shown thus far!

Lottus thrusts the Ki Blade at Fukushu, tip first, almost a dozen times before finishing the deadly flurry with a final horizontal swipe that would carve a line from Fukushu's right shoulder all the way across the Heran's chest and ending past the left shoulder!

Lottus takes the full damage from Fukushu's Basic Arts (44%).

Lottus "consumes" his remaining Sparking Water (flavored as him powering up) and activates Max Power! Additionally, 4 MP is expended to use Transformation Boost, raising Lottus' PL to 68,000 for this post only!

The Heran's uppercut is able to break through Lottus' guard, knocking the Saiyan clean off his feet. The same sort of resolve that Lottus has displayed all battle is still there though, as he rather quickly climbs back to his feet. "I expect all of my soldiers to be ready for war, no matter what department they work in. This is what war is: brutal, unforgiving; I expect you to go to the brink of death before coming back. This is only the beginning."

In an instant Lottus' power grows greatly, surpassing that of even Fukushu. "What is this?" The Saiyan produces another blade of Ki, though this one felt much more powerful than the others. Rushing forward, Fukushu is forced on the defensive as Lottus stabs at him rapidly. The combination is finished off with a heavy slash which threatens to carve the Heran from shoulder to shoulder, but Fukushu desperately taps into whatever reserves he has left and tenses his body, bracing for impact.

The Saiyan's cold, chilling blade easily tears through Fukushu's already compromised skin. Instantly the Heran jumps back, but the delirium and pain cause him to stumble as he falls ass backward onto the ground. Within seconds the entirety of his torso is painted red, with more blood still coming. It wouldn't be long now; as much as he hated to admit it this fight was nearing it's end. One of them would soon be finished, but he wasn't prepared to go out just yet.

The Heran laughs as he climbs back to his feet, making no effort to stop the flow of blood pouring down his chest. "If I were not a Heran that strike likely would have finished me, but as I'm sure you've noticed we're quite difficult to kill." If the fight were to end then it was going to be on his terms. Spreading his feet apart and bringing each arm down to his side Fukushu began one final power up, raising his energy up to it's maximum in preparation for his final technique.

"I implore you to hit me with whatever you have left."

As the Heran is slashed and falls back, Lottus drops to his knees, wheezing in a heavy rasp as the effort of his attack weighs heavily on him. His skin steams as his sweat evaporates on suddenly very hot temperatures as his power declines - having spent almost everything he had in reserves.

Almost everything.

Lottus leans on his hands, heaving breaths as his muscles twitch from the intense exertion he had just put his body through. He hears a laughter, and raises his eyes to see Fukushu returning to his feet. It felt good to push the Heran so far, and now the violent spar between them was coming to a close. Neither of them had much more to give. And while Lottus was a dangerously violent warrior - he was still a man of his word. He would not tap into the Wrathful power just to take an arbitrary advantage. The results mattered too much.

Lottus shakily returns to his feet, returning Fukushu's wicked smile.

"Killing you wasn't the intent - just proof that I'm not some grunt. I'm no fool though; I am well aware that the only reason the fight went on this far, is because you chose to hold back. Well, don't hold back now, Fukushu!! Give me what you've got!!" Lottus retorts with a smile. Energy swirls around his arms, both this time, and coalesces into his tightened fists. If he was going to go down, it would be in the only way acceptable of a Saiyan. He didn't have enough power left for a major offensive - only this next attack. "I'll hit you with all I have left..!"

Lottus' fists flare with crimson and black energy as the Saiyan hurtles towards Fukushu, and likely his own defeat. The first fist would be aimed at Fukushu's stomach, and the second blow would be aimed at the Heran's jaw!

Lottus charged everything he had into one final shot. The power was admirable, considering just how weakened he was from the fighting, but Fukushu knew that it wouldn't be enough. He let the Saiyan lunge forward at him, holding off on his own attack until he was fully charged and ready to fire. As Lottus got closer Fukushu realized that he wouldn't have the time he needed to counter the Saiyan's incoming attack, meaning he would be forced to tank the shot.

The first shot came at his stomach, forcing the Heran to keel over which left him in prime positioning for an uppercut which soon followed. The power that Lottus generated was enough to take Fukushu off of his feet, and practically had him beat, but as he fell backwards he threw up his arms and fired off all which remained of his power.

The twin spirit cannon was his most powerful attack, and now that he was no longer holding anything back he was sure that it had enough power to take the Saiyan out. The force that came from releasing the attack combined with the lack of control he had over his own body resulted in Fukushu being launched backwards, not stopping until the energy wave threw him backwards into the wall. His eyes would remain open only long enough to see what happened next.
