Leo and Revas Training at 2x Gravity

[Leonardo Khan]

Leo walked into the gravity chamber and began flipping switches, turning the dials up to two times Earth's normal gravitational pull. He instantly began to feel heavier, like some giant weight was trying to crush him. Oh, yeah. This is gonna feel GOOOOOD. He turned towards his sparing partner, Revas, the Changeling he found interesting. He had a good plan for their training; a friendly spar to assess each other's levels of ability, since they were going to be working together, but also random attacks from training drones, which they would have to fend off, and even team up to beat. That way, they could train team tactics, as well as how to fend off attacks from other parties that might show up.

"Alright, Revas. The plan is simple; we spar, non-lethal, of course, we're not trying to kill each other here, and we fend off attack drones. The increased gravity should work to help us get stronger and faster." Leo pressed some more buttons and attacks drones came from........well, EVERYWHERE, it seemed. the drones immediately went on the offensive, attacking Leo with lasers designed to stun rather than kill.

Leo took off, slower than usual because of the gravity increase, into the open air of the chamber, his aura of Ki blazing with azure fury. He hit the first two drones that got too close, both exploding on impact with Leo's fists. The next two came up behind him, and he just barely managed to dodge out of the path of their blasts, returning two of his own, the brilliant spheres of blue energy launching themselves from Leo's palms to hit the drones with such explosive force that there was nothing left of them but dust. Leo cringed a bit, as he couldn't feel a small spot on his shoulder where the drone's laser had grazed him. He could still move his right arm, but the numbness in his shoulder made it difficult. He got into a fighting stance in mid air, and waved his hand, beckoning Revas to attack him.

[Revas Drakul]

So he had planned drones and her fighting him, she was fine with this though she likely had a advantage with ranged attacks. Even with heavier gravity she could still throw things with her mind though with more difficulty and more required focus. As the drones spawned several came after her as she focused grabbing the one to her right and quickly aiming it to slam into the one on her left as they two collided and exploded into a ball of fire. Another moved quickly behind her as she pushed off the ground with her tail, this felt many times harder then normal however as the drone blasted with her no longer there she quickly flipped midair aiming her foot in reverse to slam the drone into the ground causing it to explode into flames once again.

" I think this might just be fun, however time to play seriously with you. "

Another drone appeared close to Leo as she grabbed it with her mind sending it hurling toward Leo at high speeds, if he dodged she would prepare to fire her death beam aiming at his arm to cause him to have some struggles physically. Her death beam aimed to his right while the drone came from the left, if he tried to move right he would run straight into her death beam. Another drone appeared to her right firing off a sun type of attack nearly hitting her as she quickly lowered herself to the ground, she pushed hard off the ground with her feet letting toward the drone. This gravity however made her feel heavy as her foot aimed to connect missing the drone. Before it could fire however she span her tail around slamming it into the drone sending it flying toward the wall.

[Leonardo Khan]

Leo had not expected quite a show of force; perhaps he had set the drones too high? Nah, he thought. This would work out fine. The drone hurtling at him from his left didn't seem to bother him as much as the rising power coming from Revas's fingertip. Holy Shitake Mushrooms! DEATH BEAM!!! Leo couldn't really move left or right, since to his left was the drone and to his right was Revas's incoming Death Beam. He had to think fast. He decided a rush was the answer.

He threw another Ki Blast at the TK-controlled drone, destroying it before it could reach him. This gave him the opening he needed, but just barely; he could feel the heat from the Death Beam singe his boots as he dodged to the left. He shot forward while having to knock three other drones out of his way to get to Revas. He came up on her faster than he would have thought, though still slowe than usual.

Leo began to throw attack after attack at Revas, punches, kicks, elbows, and knees, as fast as the gravity would allow. She DID have over 1,000 Power Level on him, so the attacks might not do much, but he had to try. Besides, Power Level differences didn't mean much when one could still surprise his opponent, and that's what he went for; the shock of him suddenly being on her like that. Maybe it would do some good.

[Revas Drakul]

She was impressed he managed to avoid the deathbeam and he now ran right at her, though she would show him another interesting thing her race was able to do. As he came at her with his punches and kicks she tried to avoids as many as possible but this gravity made it tougher, as she quickly grabbed his arm during one of his strike using her tail to grip one of the bots behind her that was attempting to blast her from behind, she pulled the bot aiming to smash Leo in the head while holding his arm to try to prevent him from escaping.

" Leo, things about my race you should understand rushing full on is the worst possible idea. We have many counters to physical blows and this is just one way to stop it. "

The bot now bearing down on the boy she kept a eye on the bots this was bad many were going to be surrounding them soon, she would have to go on the defensive soon to face them she may even need his help. If the attack hit or missed she would use her tail to spring her forward driving her feet hard toward the boys chest, this would knock him back as well as protect him from the likely barrage of bot attacks coming. He certainly was making it interesting avoiding the bots and fighting him made it feel like a real life or death battle.

[Leonardo Khan]

It's true Leo had forgotten about her tail, but not about her using drones to her advantage as she tried before. This was not a situation he couldn't adapt to. She held his arm fast, and that made things difficult, but not impossible right behind him was another drone about to fire its blast, and she had one in her tail, swinging for his head. This was going to hurt if he didn't think fast. But he wasn't about to go out without a fight.

"One thing you don't know about my race, Revas. We adapt." Leo's hand on his held arm snaked around to grip her wrist, twisting both arms in a somewhat painful for both parties stalemate. "And we're good at thinking on our feet."

Leo leaped into the air, twisting to relieve pressure on his arms while simultaneously increasing the pressure on her arm. As he leaped, his foot snaked out to kick the drone away from Revas's tail, to take the improvised weapon out of the equation entirely, causing it to explode in her grasp. He almost didn't time his leap right; His other shoulder was grazed by the beam of the drone behind it, causing it to feel a bit numb as well, but the full blast would take Revas full in her chest, if she didn't move fast. Which is hard to do in this gravity.

[Revas Drakul]

She was again both impressed and surprised he managed to pull away and avoid the bot bashing him. The explosion surprised her a bit but as he moved she could see the beam aiming toward her. She had to think fast she did not think she would have to use this technique against him but she had no choice. As she focused for a moment allowing the beam to get as close as possible as she left her image the beam going right through it before it vanished. The question for Leo would be where did she go she was now behind several droid as her tail slammed against them causing them to fly and slam into the wall except one as she gripped it throwing it once again toward Leo this time however she lifted her right hand firing a death beam that would arrive just after the droid but also blocking the sight of her death beam firing.

However she did notice her left arm felt numb she had waited to long causing the beam to graze her shoulder. She laughed a bit at herself she allowed herself to be hurt just to make it harder for Leo to evade her attack. Still this was a fun fight she even had a smile on her face, he was impressing her even more she already liked him a lot but this was just adding to what she liked about him. She did not have a lot of time to think however as the bots began to spawn faster and faster it was getting difficult to avoid them all as she continued to kick tail trash and slam them into the walls. This gravity was starting to slow her down some however as she got grazed on her right side causing numbness to now be effecting her right rib area.

" Leo this is getting a bit intense I think we have to work together now. This gravity is starting to tire me out and you set the bots on way to dam many, I cant avoid these blasts all day. "

She said this with a bit of sarcasm on the last part, he really did have it set to high but it was a challenge something she needed and he as well. Hopefully she did not damage him to much with her tricky attack, she needed him to be capable of fighting still after all, but she was sure he would be at least able to fight still.

[Leonardo Khan]

Leo could feel her Ki shift as the drone beam went right through her. He smiled at the thought. After Image. something I haven't learned how to do. Impressive. As he finished his cartwheel, he could feel just where she landed, which was only proven to be correct by the drones being thrown and destroyed from the area. He almost didn't see the weaponized drone come after him. But he felt the Death Beam, more than he actually saw it. Clever Girl.

Leo caught the drone and immediately threw it back, hoping to intercept the beam, and reduce the damage done, at the same time, he flew up, away from it. When the Death Beam hit the drone and the drone exploded, Leo was mostly out of the blast radius, but only just barely. It DID cause him to flail wildly into the wall of the chamber, right around the same time he heard Revas's pleas. He righted himself, also feeling like the higher gravity was starting to get to him, and launched himself at the drones attacking Revas.

As he got to them, he started fighting the drones off of himself and her, using the drones' own weapons against themselves by getting in between some and dodging, so that they shot themselves. He got back-to-back with Revas, so to speak, avoiding her tail by being a little higher. "I programmed the teamwork portion to kick in after about a minute of sparing. It kicked in a little sooner and stronger than I'd hoped, though." Leo punctuated his remarks by shooting more drones down, and getting multiples with single shots. He started laughing, too, having had more fun with Revas in the past three minutes than he'd had in at least two years.

[Revas Drakul]

She watched as Leo once again avoided damage, he certainly was clever for him to realize she had used her beam. Still it was nice someone that thought on their feet just as well as she did, he was a very interesting human and she grew more fond of him as the training continued. She watched as he flew over taking out several drones close to her and him getting behind her to cover her blind spot, so he seemed to program teamwork into these bots, this was very interesting.

" You sure thought this through, or did you make it teamwork so you could be closer to me. "

She was trying to lighten the mood as several bots rushed them she fired sever death beams in a arc taking out all in front of her as she grabbed one with her telekinetic powers and threw to off the wall causing it to explode. She watched as more bots spawned it seemed as if they spawned two for every one destroyed, he really was trying to make this difficult. A bot quickly fired several blasts toward her as she pulled another bot into its fire causing it to shot the bot causing it to short and crumble to the ground. She was beginning to breathe heavily even if she was using ranged attacks it was using ki and it was becoming tiring to stand in this gravity.

[Leonardo Khan]

The gravity was starting to be a little too much, but Leo managed to stay upright. Gotta get through this. Kairi won't avenge herself. He flew tired circles around the drones, punching, kicking, and using other drones to take them out in order to save his energy somewhat. By now, the drones were starting to disperse a little, not quite as many coming out as before. He smiled at Revas's question.

"We're friends and partners. If we don't have good teamwork, can't trust each other to watch each others' backs, than we shouldn't claim friends and partners status." Leo ducked under a blast from one drone, which destroyed the drone behind him preparing to fire. He than came up under the first one and gave it such a vicious uppercut that it flew into the paths of two more drones, all three exploding on impact. "Besides, you're kinda cute, for an alien. I like the tail."

Leo turned and spotted a drone heading towards Revas's blind spot. His hand shot out, throwing another cerulean Ki blast a high velocity, destroying it before it could attack her. "Careful, Rev, these things are smart." Leo, breathing heavily from the intense workout at two times gravity they were getting, fought off two more drones that came from either side of him, using one as a shield to block the other's attack, than hitting the other so hard, it blew up. "You think Capsule Corp. would like us breaking their toys like this? I mean, we paid good money already."

[Revas Drakul]

Leo continued to battle the droids as she watched him she was rather impressed despite him being weaker then herself he put up just as much of a fight it was rather shocking. However he threw her another curve ball as he once again called her cute and said he liked her tail her face was now bright red as she grabbed two droids slamming them together repeatedly to cover up the fact she was blushing so badly. Sh grabbed another set of droids with her telekinetic powers pulling the two and throwing them in front of Leo as several other droids blasted the two causing them to shut down.

" Do... well... do you think I am cute.... really... I... well... you like my tail...I... you know... "

She did not have time to finish her train of thought as two droids appeared rapidly at her side as she fired a death beam from her right and left hand causing the two to fall and explode. She was feeling more and more tired it was insane how this things seemed to be learning their fighting patterns. As a droid came from above her firing a beam down, she quickly lifted a field around her and Leo as she breathed even heavier he would notice he was now surrounded by a force shield of some sort as she panted heavily.

" We need to think of a strategy this is hard to maintain for more then a minute or two. How are we going to fight these, they are learning how to avoid my ranged attacks and likely are going to learn how to avoid your strikes. "

[Leonardo Khan]

Leo noticed that by this time, no new drones were being spawned, so all they had to deal with was about 50 that were still active. But Revas was right; they were learning. As Leo was getting more and more tired, he was slowing down, making it harder to defend against the drones anyway, let alone keep up the pace he started at. And yet, the drones stayed the same, learning his attack patterns, and dodging what should have been easy strikes for him.

"Damn, this is getting monotonous. You're right, Rev. We need a new plan." Leo thought about it as he went purely on the defensive, blocking and dodging rather than simply striking. the drones weren't falling for his get-them-to-shoot-each-other trick anymore, but he was still able to take some out by grabbing one to use as a shield and getting a new one when it was destroyed. It suddenly hit him like a strike from Revas's Death Beam. the new plan, not any of the attacks.

He landed right beside Revas, both of their backs to a wall, all roughly 42 of the drones that were left after Leo's defensive actions in plain sight of both of them. He began putting all of his power into one single sphere in front of him, both hands outstretched and grasping it. His aura had a slight red tinge to it, like when Kairi died, and he released his fury, but stayed, for the most part, blue. "Use your Telekinesis. corral them into one spot. They haven't learned that you can put up a TK bubble. Once corralled, I'll blow them all up at once."

[Revas Drakul]

She listened to his plan it was a good one but this would require a lot of her power, if anything else needed fighting it would require her to change into her true power and not hide behind this first form. She nodded at Leo as she grabbed the outer bots and began to pull them into a cluster, it was clear this was hard work as the sweat poured down her face forty two targets was no easy task. She could feel her body getting heavier, this was a lot rougher then she had thought as she gathers more and more thirty eight, thirty nine, forty she began to fall to one knee but continued to grip the droids closer together.

" Leo... you have one shot at this if you miss I wont have the energy to do this again, make sure you aim straight and pure. I don't want you to suffer anymore under Freizas control I want no more deaths and suffering for humanity or those I care about. So show me your true resolve, show me the power of humanity, show me your true strength Leo, now they are gathered...FIRE ! "

She felt empowered by how hard he tried despite being weak, he never gave up hope he had such resolved and passion. This is why she loved humanity so much they never would surrender and be a lapdog for Freiza, no they would fight till the bitter end even if they all died. Humanity was both stupid and stubborn but that side of them is what she loved so much. She waited for his blast, she wondered was her speech enough to inspire his true power, to have him show his true potential she only hoped it was enough. She realized now she loved this man, yes the care the ache in her heart when he suffered, it all made sense she did not wish him to die more then any other person. This was someone she deeply cared for, someone she had this love for.

[Leonardo Khan]

Leo was sweating profusely and breathing heavily, his arms, legs, even his head felt like they weighed a ton. The red-blue sphere gathering into his hands glowed brighter and brighter as he put everything he had into it, not just his energy, but his resolve, his passion........and his anger. Anger at not saving Kairi. Anger at Frieza, for enslaving his race. No, not anger. Rage. Pure Rage. He heard Revas's voice cut through the red haze he saw heard her tell him to show her his true resolve, show her the true power of Humanity, to aim true.

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!" He screamed as he brought his hands back and thrusted them forward, releasing the Ki Blast as a wave of energy, backed by all his power. The attack splashed over the remaining drones, causing all of them to detonate, just as he'd planned, the noise deafening and the smoke thick.

As it cleared, he stood there, arms still thrust in front, fingers up and curled, palms down. His aura died down as his energy gave out; he would probably read on Scouters as a 6 instead of his full power, even without Masking. He smiled as he slowly brought his hands down to his sides and turned to look at Revas. "'Show me your true resolve'? Really? A little cliche, don't you think?" He still smiled as he dropped to one knee, now almost too tired to move, but at least he had gotten somewhat used to the higher gravity. He KNEW he would feel stronger and faster when they left. "Ha, but it's cool. And, yes, I meant it when I said you were cute. The tail really does kinda do it for me."

[Revas Drakul]

He managed to destroy the remaining droids as she stood but it was clear he was completely out of any sort of energy. She had yet to tell him that she was only using half her true strength but in reality she had to show him just what makes Freiza and them so much stronger. To have him understand you had to become more then double their power to stand even a chance. She moved to Leo offering her hand to help him up when he said it again she was cute and he loved her tail causing her to flush many shades of red as she pulled him standing close to him.

" I... well I think you are really cute as well... I... well I need to tell you something you may not understand. I did not use my full power, my race you see keeps its true power locked up unless we need to remove our limiters. I guess the only way to explain it is to show you. "

She began to focus for a moment as her body began to grow much larger her height keep going higher and higher until she was almost eight feet tall, her muscles began to expand and grow as she was quite visibly more powerful. As her form changed she released a burst of ki around her the wave likely making Leo see just what she meant. She was many times stronger then she was before, this was her race. It was likely Freiza could go many times father then she could, this is what her race could do he had to understand just what type of power they really had.

" This... is my true power, but... I really do not like showing off and I think... it isn't very cute. However I can tell you, now you would stand little chance against me, Freiza and other changelings likely can go a lot father then I can. We need to train and find moves which can harm them regardless if they have a monstrous amount of power higher. "

Leo would likely be shocked and could more then certainly feel how much stronger she had become, it was to such an extent he could feel the ki surge in her body as if she had not lost any energy training just now.

[Leonardo Khan]

At first, Leo didn't know what to say. He could sense her Ki was many, many times greater now, and that even at full power for himself, it wouldn't be enough. My Gods! How can we even..... Leo shook his head to get rid of the thought that ws about to cross his mind. NO! We can still win this, even if it takes a Hundred Years, even if I die trying, MY RACE WILL BE FREE!!!!!! Leo's own energy began to rise again, almost as if the very thought of winning was enough to pull out what he never thought he had. No, not winning. A refusal to loose.

Leo looked up at Revas, now stronger and........well, Space Amazonian. He stood up, albeit somewhat slowly do to his tiredness and the two times gravity they were still sitting at. He didn't have enough energy to fly, yet he STILL looked Revas right in the eye. "Even if it takes a hundred years, Rev, my race will be free. Even if I die trying. If others of your race can be as kind-hearted as you, maybe we even stand a chance at peace."


Leo walked very slowly over to the controls and put his hand on the shut off lever. He didn't pull it down yet, but instead looked over at Revas, all eight feet of her. He smiled and laughed. "I can't BELIEVE I'm falling in love with a freaking Space Amazon Woman. Well, I guess I now know why they call your race 'Changelings'."
