Thread PL: 5,000 || Thread Items: Space Pod

Indulging in sports at two o clock in the afternoon is wonderful for spending the day outdoors, Russ visited East City's fairly enormous park and walked to a vacant basketball court, carry a ball in his arms. His attire is something different for today, a blue and white athlete tracksuit with matching gym shoes. The half earthling mused about his late mother, she would sometimes take Russ and his father here to practice for a game or to watch her play ball with her friends. She was very good at the sport and never cared if she won or lost, they would all go get ice cream to laugh and enjoy themselves.

Russ smiled in the middle of reminiscing, that visual of his mother and friends playing a game with him watching is a lot of fun, when reality kicks in those memories are in the past. "Been a while since I practiced, lets see if I still got it.." Russ stood in the middle of the court and lifted his arms to aim for a shot, he threw the ball at the basketball rim and it bounced off the white plate from throwing too high and landed on the ground.

"Damnit!" murmuring an expletive at himself, if his wriest didn't fling to the left he could've made the shot, he has all the time in the world to improve his game. Russ picked up the ball and started dribbling, he jogged over to the rim, jumped up, and slammed the ball inside. He picked up the ball again and stand in the middle to line up a shot and throw, the ball did not go inside as he hoped and it touches the rim before hitting the ground again.

"Nope, too fast" Russ picked up the ball and returned to the center to go for another shot, this time standing farther from the middle. He jumped up and threw the ball and it completely flew over the rim, looks like he's just a terrible three-pointer.

"Wow am I really out of practice?" rubbing his head, good thing no one is around to see him fumbling.

Ah, East City. Truly, the least West of cities.

Also, of Earth’s cities, it was the most infested with crime, the most dense with publicly available martial arts dojos (quite possibly this latter point was a natural response of the former point; with a police force too corrupt to deal with crime, citizens may have increasingly felt it was up to them to defend themselves through martial arts) and, truly, the most East-lying one. But, more than that, her research (various bits of snooping, hacking and algorithm-feeding) had indicated that the next of her potential helpers was there. And, given past behaviours, it seemed to indicate potential future behaviours, wherein Russ would be thereabouts...

5,000PL!

Oho? Now, was this the Power Level of the fighter she was here for? It was in a park, that much was definite, but more specifically he seemed to be in the general area of the sporting areas.

Was it the— yes, it was, her scouter confirmed. This powerful energy signature-holder notably had blue hair, a blue tail and was throwing a ball into a hoop for some reason. A game, she imagined, but what sort of purpose could something like that hold?

”Russ, I imagine?” Cheri walked onto the court. Being on the job as she was, she wore her battlesuit; clearly alien, clearly intended for battle, though with no visible weapons.

Usually, in shows and movies, when someone was practicing basketball by themselves and someone confidently strode onto the court and introduced themselves, it meant that that person was about to show off how good at basketball they were. This, was not that.

Entering with 35,000PL.

Russ scurried over to pick up the ball and contemplate on one more jump shot, getting it right will take a lot of trial and error to be as good as a professional player, months or years of training to get there. Russ didn't want to spend so much time in the park for too long, he has other things to do. He wouldn't want someone to spot him by his lonesome and accuse the half-Saiyan of loitering and call the cops.

And he thought too soon...

Russ's body stopped moving to detect very powerful energy edging closer to him, he couldn't tell if they are an ally or an enemy but they are far out of his league in strength to render the possible option of thwarting them away in battle a moot effort. The basketball wedged between his arms as he turned around to face an armor-clad pink hair woman who addresses him by name, surprising she somehow knew of his identity.

He noted a scouter mounted on her face and her short stature, he couldn't tell if she is a member of the Tuffle species or a human being born with a petite body, she must be an experienced fighter if she possessed this much power. So far she appears to be passive and didn't warrant any reason to fight but the skepticism is still there.

"You know me? Who are you?" getting straight to the point.

”I am General Cheri. I am a tuffle, of Planet Plant.” Cheri gave it a half-chance he knew what either of those things were. She had a slight smile— not the evil or smug kind, but an actual, warm smile. He didn’t need to introduce himself; she evidently knew who he was already. Or, well, just his name, but for most people that was all an introduction supplied.

She’d previously noted his blue tail which, at least in shape, resembled that of a saiyan. And, yet, he had blue hair (and, upon the tail, blue fur), which was not a hair colour a saiyan could naturally have. Sure, in all likelihood, it was just a quirk of the Earthling genome— with all those zoanthropes running around, it seemed inevitable that some animalistic traits would be found in some humans— but there was also a distinct possibility that this ‘Russ’ was part-saiyan and whose family had left Sadala early on during its apocalypse to leave for Earth. The Sadalans who had the foresight to leave early were few, without major leadership and tended to be a bit smarter than the average so, in reaching Earth, they’d have been more willing to naturalise peacefully.
But it was probably the Earthling thing.

”I saw that you entered in the Tenka'ichi Budōkai tournament. I’m here, on Earth, because my people are in need of assistance, and the Tenka'ichi Budōkai has attracted powerful warriors from the galaxy over. Tell me, are you the sort to stop any injustice you see?”

She was now properly on the court. There were a hell of a lot of lines painted in nice lines and circles on the ground, and she had no idea what any of them meant.

A General huh, now this woman's outfit has some merit. She explained she recognized him from the Tenkaichi Budokai Tournament, bringing his thoughts back to that day he participated with the intention to win enough funds for his work. Captain Sweetheart was the first opponent he faced and the last, her tenacious attitude overcame the half Saiyan's display of raw power and prowess, but his blundering rash decisions cost him the fight. He wondered how she's doing and hoped she made it to the top, he'd like to have a rematch someday.

He pushed the thought of that accident-prone superhero in the corners of his mind for another day, Russ is still trying to understand why this woman wanted to find a random dude on the street. "From the tournament? that's right, I was there but as you saw I didn't make it past the preliminaries" Assuming she watched the event during its live broadcast. There's always next year and he'll take it more seriously if he returned. She asked him if he is willing to stop any injustice he sees and her people needed help.

Russ placed the ball down and folded his arms, one eyebrow is lowered than the other. "Depends on the kind of injustice, what's happening with your people?" he asked with mild concern, he's always willing to jump in and help people around him but just in case this could be a set up he will be on his guard.

"Didn't make it past the prelims? What's that matter?" Cheri smiled, keeping an accurate image of the tournament's bracket as it had unfolded in her mind's eye... or, as a tuffle, one of her mind's many eyes. "The Budokai, for whatever reason, employed a random seeding," which was to say, of course, that it employed no seeding at all, "meaning that it's entirely possible that you were the second greatest warrior there, and simply happened to be paired up against the single greatest warrior there." She knew that that was not the case, for she could sense his energy signature. Unless he had the means to hide it (which, to be fair, was entirely possible, as that was a technique Earthling warriors were known to know), it wasn't all that much compared to many of the other energy signatures of powerful fighters Cheri had previously sensed, including her own. But those power signatures were only notable in that they were grand; this gent was still far and above greater than the vast, vast majority of people the galaxy over. A power like that could make a difference and, Cheri knew firsthand, a power like that could grow. Quickly. "You aren't, I can sense your energy with my scouter, but the power you have is still wildly impressive."

Ah, fair enough, he wanted more information; were Cheri in a position to help, and someone asked the same of her, she'd have asked something similar. Perhaps with a bit more nuance, but, still. "I assume, then, that you are not familiar with the sociopolitical goings on of Planet Plant." This was fair. The vast majority of life did not even know what Plant was... but, then again, the vast majority of life took the form of single-celled organisms, only marginally smarter than a Vegetan. "The Vegetans, as a culture, exist as the most debased and desperate form of the original, noble Sadalan culture. When they reached Plant multiple generations ago, they immediately fell to violence, and their corrupted prides would not let them seek any peace attained out of anything short of total conquest. The tuffles are an intellectual, technological species; we are not warriors, not in the usual, physical sense... so, needless to say, we've been having some trouble. Are you following along all right?"
