Returning To Namek (IO)

Apexle gave a smirk towards Gandigan. "As expected Gandigan you know the land well" He stated before the pair even took off. He figured if Gandigan had decided to claim this land that he must have some knowledge of the vast areas that Apexle himself hadn't explored. Although the Tufyan never really explored outside of the Outer plait area either. As Gandigan sped off Apexle tried his best to keep pace with the Namekian, however the time they spent apart showed a clear result. Gandigan was much further ahead than him, and it took everything Apexle had to keep their distance somewhat close even if it was nearly thirty feet apart with the Namekian pushing the distance further.

Apexle was barely able to make out what Gandigan had said with the distance between them. "Yeah! But I'm sure more will come along after your name is spread around the Planet" Apexle shot back with a louder tone. Attempting to have Gandigan hear him even beyond the large distance they had between themselves.

Apexle was relieved as he followed Gandigan into the clearing letting himself land on the northern side of the area right in front of Gandigan. As soon as he touched down the Tufyan began to stretch while listening to Gandigan. "I wouldn't mind the handicap, but I'd rather we fight in our base forms. You know maybe we'll destroy less of the forest around us" Apexle spoke back finally finishing his stretches as his toes began to push his heels up sending him bouncing in place. "I'm ready whenever you are. Feel free to start us" Apexle said with a smile back towards Gandigan assuming the Namekian would happily start them off.

"Well said. A good warrior knows what to hide and what to show after all" Apexle commented. He agreed with Gandigan he had too many eyes on him due to his ambition. Apexle didn't want to reveal either of their true strength to the Namekians whom weren't allied to Gandigan so soon.

"I'd agree. Fifty thousand sounds like a good place. After all we wont have to worry about destroying mountains if we take it at that pace. You wont need to worry though. I'm sure once I've bled myself a bit my power will soar after the battle" Apexle promised with a gleam of interest in his eyes. "Normally I wouldn't, but since it's you I'll also avoid my blood getting on you. I got a nice trick to make sure you stay clean" Apexle said with a joking tone towards Gandigan as he cracked his neck. "Don't worry. Crown or no crown I'll spar with you Gandigan. Just if you do have a crown it'll need to be out of sight so your residents are none the wiser" Apexle said with a smile taking up his own battle stance.

Apexle watched as the Namekian spoke. "Of course. I'm always a gentleman" Apexle shot back as Gandigan raced towards him. The Tufyan took in a breath as he lowered his upper body downward as he rushed forward with his right hand to his right shoulder. As the two grew closer Gandigan launched an arm out towards Apexle. "Bladed Fingers" The Tufyan spoke as ki surrounded his fingers on his right hand.

Just as quickly his hand slammed against the arm lunging towards him. Dealing no damage, however the Tufyan was quick to kick himself off the ground attempting to have his bare hand glide over the Namekians skin. Twisting his body in the air and attempting to send his hell into Gandigan's jaw. All in hopes of pushing the Namekian back, but deal no real damage to his ally.

When Apexle felt his heel connect he realize just how strong Gandigan must have become. Had anyone else taken a strike like that they'd most like had been on their rear ends asking the Kai's above to rescue them. Apexle couldn't help but smirk at Gandigan. "Oh no. There is definitely some rust on these bones of mine, but I picked up that move one Earth not too long ago" Apexle managed to get out as his feet met the ground once more. He figured Gandigan would keep a gap. Assuming the namekian was more of a ranged combatant than someone who preferred Melee.

Apexle gave a curious smile towards Gandigan as he distanced the gap. His eyes scanning up and down Apexle. "Don't worry Gandigan I promise it was just a lucky blow" The Tufyan cooed as he let his arms fall to his sides limp as a dead fish swaying from left to right in a rhythmic motion. "I'm sure I got a beat down with my name on it coming" The Tufyan predicted with a friendly tone as the two looked over eachother.

Apexle would easily admit he was outclassed. Gandigan wasn't showing the ruthless side he'd seen when Amon took over. For that he felt a good bit of relief seeing as the Namekian could easily power up and break his body with ease.

Apexle's eyes watched as Gandigan spoke once more, and then quickly took to the air. His lip screaming what seemed like an attack, and in response just as quick Apexle's legs tensed up filling with strength. "Black Shadow" The Tufyan spoke as he kicked off the ground at extreme speeds leaving behind a shadowy image of himself that was quickly engulfed by the explosive beam. It took but a millisecond to engulf the shadow and turn the ground where he once stood into a crater.

Just as quickly Apexle appeared on the ground behind Gandigan. "That. That was dangerous" The Tufyan teased from behind and below the Namekian. "Guess I'm lucky I'm pretty quick" The Tufyan said in a jest as he took several paces further back watching Gandigan with thoughtful eyes. As if inspecting his every move very carefully.

Apexle let out a laugh. "I already hit you though" He said with a childish smile back to the Namekian as he spoke. "That's one for me. none for you" The Tufyan had to tease as the Namekian turned on him. The Tufyan was below him. His cloak flowing as a nice breeze blew threw the clearing as if battling against the wave of air that Gandigan had created. "You have to remember Gandigan I'm a Tufyan. We fight a bit differently" Apexle announced to his comrade.

Gandigan had faced him. Once again scanning over his body. Perhaps figuring out what the Tufyan was planning. Or perhaps examining the distance. Apexle couldn't be certain as his right hand moved up unclipping his robe to reveal his all white outfit underneath. His hand stood next to his shoulder as he listened to Gandigan once more.

"More reps? You must want to be as muscle bound as Marimba don't you?" Apexle teased as he noticed Gandigan's arm raise well above his head. The Ki around him gathering into his palm, and finally a disk like shape formed. Thin enough to rival that of a stick, however the surface reminded him of the assault pod he'd landed in. "Using me as a test subject? Not the first time this has happened" Apexle teased back. A smile brimming on his lips.

"I'll see your new trick with my old one! BLADED FINGERS!" Apexle proclaimed as his fingers were once again coated in Ki, and with diagonal path moved forward, however this time the ki from his fingers extended out far enough to touch Gandigan before swinging forward slamming into the disk, and after a brief struggle cutting through the disk moving forward in a stabbing motion towards Gandigan's left shoulder attempting to break the skin of his companions shoulder and not run him through.

Apexle allowed his ki to disperse from his fingers giving a whistle. "Yaknow I honestly didn't think I'd hit you with that." Apexle admitted. He was sure the Namekian could have avoided it, but most likely allowed it to hit him only out of the kindness of his heart and not because he had no other choice. Apexle couldn't help but widen his own smile as Gandigan smiled back at him. Obviously enjoying himself against Apexles style of fighting.

"I wasn't speaking Ill of Marimba. I've been hit by him, and I can attest that he is one hundred percent muscle" Apexle shot back to clarify himself to Gandigan. A smile still hung on the Tufyan's face as the two were head to head. He couldn't help but feel as though Gandigan wasn't trying his hardest.

"I love the sound of tha-" Was all Apexle was able to get out as Gandigan lunged forward once more his body moving in a different motion this time. Instead of his arms the Namekian's head come first. His jaws parted, and immediately Apexle realized what his friend was planning. "YOU'RE A MAD MAN!" Apexle screamed as his left arm raised.

His left arm raised to shoulder level. Apexle didn't try to defend, but instead sent his arm down the Namekians throat down to his shoulder as seething teeth bit into his shoulder. Sending a massive spray of blood around the pair. Sending nearly crippling pain throughout his entire body. It took a moment as the Tufyan fought back the pain of having large mandibles stuck into his shoulder. "But. That makes two of us" Apexle spoke through rasping breaths as the Namekian wouldn't taste the foul liquid, however Apexle tilted his arm ever so slightly allowing whatever blood was released inside Gandigan's mouth to trickle further as the Tufyan attempted to pull his shoulder from the teeth lodged in it.

As Gandigan's teeth left the Tufyan's skin it was surprising that none seemed to pour out further as the Tufyan willed his blood to stay inside. He wasn't done yet, and he was still very much awake and alive. With luck he intended to keep things that way. Watching as Gandigan took a few paces back obviously thinking over the harm that Apexle's blood might do to him the Tufyan gave a thin smile letting the Namekian speak.

"Don't worry. You won't need any medical treatment. It's more or less a tranquilizer as I've said before" Apexle said his brow raised. "You may however feel a bit tired and weakened, but I made sure that most of it except for a few drops stayed on my arm" Apexle explained to the Namekian. "Although knowing what you do I'm surprise you took the risk on little ol me" The Tufyan teased as the wounds on his arm shown clearly now.

"Ahh you want to see one of my tricks? I don't have the ki to show my ace in the hole, but I can most definitely show you something new" Apexle said as his right hand raised. His hand cusped as if holding something. "Gungnir" The Tufyan spoke as ki began to swirl into his hand much like Gandigan's disk. Instead it took the form of a spear almost made of light. Lightning seemed to crackle from it as Apexle threw his hand forward releasing the homing spear towards Gandigan's left leg letting the air crack around it as lightning seemed to spark off it.

Apexle gave a glance towards Gandigan the entire time it took for his spear to meet Gandigan's flesh. Although he didn't enjoy putting a hole in the Namekian he didn't have a choice considering his spear technique was meant to draw blood any time it could. The comment Gandigan had made prior passed completely over the Tufyan's head as his face winced at seeing Gandigan's leg grow a new hole. He knew it must have hurt worst compared to the bite wound he'd received. However the comment Gandigan made after brought a laugh and smile back to the Tufyan's face.

"A bite or a hole in the leg. Neither of our wounds sound fun to have" Apexle jested back to Gandigan. "Sorry for the hole, but that technique doesn't hold back it's more or less a move I save in case I really need to hurt someone" Apexle explained as Gandigan fought to get to his feet. "I don't mind moving to the air. With the ruckus we've been making I'm sure nobody is still around" Apexle agreed knowing that Gandigan was better off nursing his leg. The Tufyan wasn't against ending their spar there, however he felt as though that might be disrespectful to Gandigan's warrior pride, and thus his only option was to agree.

As the two made their way into the air. Apexle enjoyed the soft breeze that was blowing against his torn flesh. Taking a moment to balance himself in the air before the fight began again.

Gandigan started them off once more. Apexle watched as with blinding speed the Namekian closed the distance between them. He barely had time to react as Gandigan's knee slammed into his gut causing him to curl in the air a bit, however as Gandigan would raise his hands high in the sky and joining them together, Apexle would reach out for the garb the Namekian used to cover his torso. Attempting to grasp ahold and pull while bringing his head up in an attempt to headbutt the Namekian hoping it would stagger him and allow Apexle to avoid the assault from the Namekians joined hands.
