Tarch PL: 112,000. Energy Setting: 40,000
It was a good feeling to come home without anyone worrying about you. No parents crowing you and bombarding you with concerned interrogations, wondering where you got the giant scar on your chest. No friends noticing you aren’t as talkative or energetic as you used to be. Just peace and quiet, everyone asking how your trip was and if you had fun. You know, like a normal vacation. Granted, Vegeta isn’t a normal vacation spot, but Tarch was just happy he could come home to a relatively normal scene. Soon School would be back in full swing, and he could go back to hanging out with his friends, and doing what a normal thirteen year old kid does.
For now, the young half saiyan wanted to do something he hadn’t gotten to do in a long time. Tarch was planted crosslegged in a tall tree, resting on a large branch. Until recently it had been a little too cold for him to go outside and just let his senses take over. Since he first trained under his grandfather, through Mr. Vocado’s time, and now even under Ms. Kayen’s teaching, they all agreed that taking time to focus and really sharpen his senses was an incredibly important part of his training. Not only that, but his doctor said it would indeed help him move past the trauma caused from Namek.
So there he was, lids hanging lazily over his eyes, yet still seeing everything around him. He could sense the birds zipping from tree to tree. The small animals trotting around on the ground below, even the flowing rivers and streams quietly washing down. To add to the wonderful sensation, the lightness of Earth’s weaker gravity left the hybrid with a very light feeling, like a feather wafting through the breeze. It truly was serene, and a perfect place for Tarch to practice his meditation. This was the only time the teen was really calm. Usually, he had to be moving in some way or another. But this was always different, the one time he enjoyed staying still. Tarch let in a deep breath of fresh Paozu air. Surely, nothing could possibly ruin such a peaceful and relaxing day. Right?

If you were to look at Bamboo, a single look would tell you that she wasn't having a very good day.
On the other side of Mt. Paozu, Bamboo was partaking in a hunt. It wasn't a hunt for furs or for food- nay, this was a hunt for the thrill of it, a hunt in order to have the time of her life tousling with the wildlife, a place for her to brawl until she passed out from exhaustion. The sentiment was clear on her body. One of her antlers was missing- she was pretty sure that a bear swiped it off -and her hair was even more disheveled then it usually was. An open wound on her head left a trail of blood down the right side of her face- she had been fighting for so long here that it even had time to dry. Her clothes were ripped, cuts and scrapes littered her body, and she was caked with dirt. Clearly, she wasn't having a very good time, here...
...or so you would expect, but in fact, Bamboo couldn't have been any happier!
She pranced through the forest with a wildness in her eyes, an unquenchable urge to hit and smash and hit and smash and hit and smash over and over and over and over again, until she couldn't bear to move anymore. She was well on her way to that point- but she was also hungry, so she would eat before continuing her hunt! In order to enjoy her snack in peace, she had scaled the mountain and scaled the other side, all within the span of about five or so minutes. The second her feet hit the ground on the opposite side of the rock heap, she removed the gourd on her back in one fluid motion, her mouth watering as she stared down at it's contents- rice!
The uncooked rice grains shook in their container, making a nice sound. Bamboo shuffled them around a few more times as she walzed around, enjoying how they felt in her hands. She soon grew bored of this activity, though, and stuck her hand inside the gourd. She came up with a few raw pellets of rice, shoving them inside her mouth messily and haphazardly.
But soon, something interrupted her feast. Something that smelled. Something that smelled strong.
It didn't take long for the nature psuedo-spirit to navigate the forest and rapidly approach the energy signal she had read. She kept on sniffing the air, savoring the smell of a new opponent- his power only seemed to be about half hers, but that didn't matter. It was good enough.
Her head would soon pop out directly in front of Tarch, having scaled the tree he was sitting on. She would soon flip around and land on her rear end adjacent to Tarch, all the while chewing on a mouthful of raw rice. The younger boy was in luck- Bamboo wasn't one to fight while she ate. Her unquenchable lust for battle had been quenched, at least until she was full again.
"Fouu! Fuer stronf!" Swallow. "Bamboo's name is Bamboo! After Bamboo eats her snack, fight her!"

“GAAHCK!” Now Tarch noticed very easily a power level twice as large as his own heading right toward him, especially in his heightened state. What he was expecting was him being “attacked” so quickly by said power level and nearly screamed at, luckily in a joyful manner. So the teen’s eyes shot open as the rest of him nearly fell from his branch, his tail wrapping securely onto the base of the limb to catch him. Sitting playfully in front of him was a very ragged looking animal person. Unlike most Zoans though, they had a basic human appearance with many different animals parts, as opposed to looking like a single animal. The disheveled mess of a person introduced themselves as Bamboo and even referred to themselves in the third person. Also, they were a she, a little older than Tarch by the looks of her.
“Uhhh. Hi? I’m Tarch. And… okay?” To be honest, he was a little too overwhelmed to really think of a proper response. From what he could gather, apart from her name being Bamboo, was that she wanted to fight, and she wanted to finish her snack first. Tarch looked at the aforementioned snack, realizing almost instantly that something was wrong. If the sickeningly loud crunching didn’t give it away, then the rattle of the gourd she was carrying certainly did.
“Is that… raw rice?” Being an avid sushi fan, Tarch loved a nice bowl of warm rice. Really, in sushi, it was the only non-raw ingredient. The crunch from Bamboo before she finished made the young hybrid gag slightly, he didn’t even know you could eat that stuff uncooked. “I’ll uhh, I’ll still fight you but I just wanna make sure. You do know that you can cook the rice first right?” Normally the teen would assume anyone over the age of five knew that, but judging by the look of this girl, with her animal parts and torn clothing, it was possible she just didn’t know about cooking in general. He then made a second realization. Tarch was too busy reacting to the sudden situation of a strange woman demanding a fight to notice. It wasn’t painted on or a natural mark on Bamboo’s forehead, it was blood!
“Oh gosh nevermind that! Are you okay?! Jeez, how did I not notice that? Wait one sec.” Tarch hopped up to his feet and reached into the swarm of leaves above him. He then pulled out a simple black backpack, with his wooden sword strapped to the side. He reached into the front pocket and pulled out a small plastic baggy with a single small bean inside. “Here,” he motioned, letting the been fall into his open palm. “Eat this, it’ll heal up that cut on your head.” It was a lot smaller than regular senzu beans Tarch had seen, and it did nothing to fill up the person who ate it like it’s predecessor, but it was perfect for cuts just like hers.
Tarch offers Senzu Bonsai Bean to Bamboo for her cut. I guess since it’s not really PL damage it doesn’t have to count but I think it’s a great use of it

How unexpectedly cooperative of him!
Usually, when she inquired about a duel, it was all 'Oh, please don't hit me!' and all 'What the hell are you doing!?' Nobody ever just went along with it. Bamboo was starting to think the world had gone soft- Tarch had restored her faith in fighters everywhere. A true hero.
At his offer of a small bean, Bamboo cocked her head to the side. Her head? She placed her hand atop her head as a test, and brought it down to her eyes. As expected, it was slick with blood. She stared at it a few moments, her mouth dead-set in an 'o' shape. Surprise provided a segway into laughter, laughter as Bamboo stuck the two digits in her mouth and cleared them of any remaining blood. She then tenatively took the bean offered to her and popped it into her mouth, crunching it with an unreadable expression on her face. She swallowed, and moments later, her entire body began to relax.
She leaped back on the branch in suprise, patting herself down frantically as the unfamiliar sensation flooded her body. Her hand eventually stopped at her knee- her pants were ripped where there was a scrape -but now there was nothing but dark brown skin. She poked at said skin, not quite understanding what had happened. She felt weird all over, but it was kinda nice, she supposed. Not having any battle scars was kind of lame, but she supposed that if she ate more of these, she'd be able to fight longer, and thus, get more battle scars. She shot a thumbs-up to the boy in question, shooting him a toothy smile. "Nice! Those're cool!"
Once she was healed up, she addressed his question about rice. She popped her gourd out in front of her, opening up the lid to reveal the pure, white rice inside. She shook it around once more, seemingly reveling in the sound it made, before placing it down between the two of them. "Cook rice? Is that a new kind of rice? Bamboo really likes rice, so new rice is probably good rice, ri- ooh, ohh, ohh, what's that?"
In a flash, Bamboo's bamboo pole was withdrawn from it's holder, a tightly-woven vine sash. She swung it around with incredible speed, the pole poised to smash Tarch... but it didn't. With skilled preciscion, the pole stopped just shy of the boy, and lightly tapped the wooden sword on the side of his pack. "Tarch! Tarch! Teach Bamboo about cook rice! Tell Bamboo about weird bamboo pole too! Bamboo likes bamboo- can Bamboo make bamboo look like that bamboo?" It was a mess of a sentence, yes, but it was said with the utmost sincerity. She awaited his instruction, her free hand flat in front of her, her head tilted inquisitively.

“Yeah, they are!” Tarch smiled, glad that this strange woman could talk sense as well. This would also be the first time seeing the beans work their magic from the outside. It was quite a sight seeing Bamboo's skin knitting itself back together, leaving only a few splotches of dried blood. After she had finished her little healing session, Bamboo went to ask more about the cooked rice, or rather, “cook rice.” Tarch just gave the girl a sincere but befuddled laugh.
“No no. Well, kind of? Might be easier if- HEY what the heck are you-” This girl had a shorter attention span than Tarch did! It wasn’t often he met people that had more energy than he did, and even fewer that were so readily willing to let it out like this. Before Tarch could even begin to react, The girl swung a hefty piece of bamboo toward the hybrid. He scrambled to reach for his own wooden sword, however, her pole was already prodding at it. Once more Tarch was stunned. She thought his sword was also bamboo? “Oh, this thing?” He quickly pulled out his sword, giving it a small flourish. “It’s actually not bamboo. It’s…” the young hybrid paused, then began inspecting his wooden blade. “Huh. Y’know I don’t actually know what this is made of. I know it’s a kind of wood but that’s it. I shoulda asked Ms. Kayen back on Vegeta. Anyway. Why don’t I show you how to cook rice. Trust me, it’ll taste much better than just… raw…” Again the teen shuddered at the thought of munching on raw grains.
Tarch would hop down from the tree, and assuming Bomboo followed him, take her to a nearby open river. Before anything he wanted to make sure he remembered to bring his grandfather’s old outdoor kitchenware. A quick rustling through his bag later and he pulled out several clanking metal dishes, including a couple of bowls big enough for what he wanted.
“Now cooking rice is pretty easy, though it’s also easy to mess up. Luckily,” he then pulled out a small timer, “This will help us know when it’s done. Now, all you gotta do it get some water boiling. So gimme one minute.” Tarch poured the contents of one of the water bottles he kept with him into one of his bowls. Then after a quick dash into the woods, he’d build a small fire which he easily lit with a tiny ki blast. “Then once the water is boiling, you just pour in the rice, but not too much. Otherwise, you just get half cooked goop.” Tarch decided would let Bamboo be the one to pour in the grains, since they were, after all, hers.
He’d then set his little timer for twenty minutes. “Then we just cover it up and let them sit for twenty minutes, maybe a little longer since it’s over an open fire. I’ve always been better at cooking fish when out camping anyway. But either way, I know exactly what we can do while we wait!” Tarch shot up, leaping over to the other side of the river. “That should give us plenty of time to fight, and have a nice snack after we’re done!”

It seemed Tarch was more than eager to teach her about the ways of the culinary arts. Good for Bamboo, since most of her meals were just animals she hunted down and ate raw. She sorta-kinda understood what he meant about the wood- either way, she wouldn’t question him any more over it. After all, rice was important.
She followed and listened to his words with absolute attentiveness, her mouth forming into a tiny ‘o’ at his technique. Interesting- Bamboo got the gist of what he was trying to say, even if she didn’t really understand a lot of it. She just needed to put rice in water, make water hot, then wait until it was done. Easy! Even Bamboo could do that. At Tarch’s motioning to put the rice inside of the pot, Bamboo withdrew her gourd and tipped it sideways, pouring a moderate amount of rice into the pot. After all, if she didn’t end up liking this kind of rice, she didn’t want to waste more than she needed on it. Directly following the rice-pouring, Bamboo pulled the knot of the gourd shut, placing it a few feet away from the fire.
She nodded at Tarch’s words- apparently, you could do the same thing with fish! At Tarch’s mention of a battle, Bamboo closed her eyes and sniffed, seemingly not paying attention. She got down on all fours, seemingly meaninglessly. Her nose poised towards the sky, she began to crawl sniffing the air with a knitted brow and unexpected intensity.
Moments later, she leapt into action like an uncoiled spring, moving at a blistering pace. In a matter of seconds, two thin, long stalks of bamboo popped into her hand- the next moment, they were chucked with intensity towards the water- water erupted from the spots which they landed. Bamboo then sprung towards the river, grasping the two poles she had created and yanking them from where they had impaled themselves into the ground.
Impaled on the end of each pole was a fish, pierced clean through. They were of a moderate size, with flat, slender bodies. She giggled as she looked at the freshly-caught fish, and waded through the water back over to Tarch, setting the two poles down against her gourd of rice. She giggled again, seemingly meaninglessly, before looking towards Tarch once again. “We can eat fish now, too! Yay! Teach Bamboo how to do cook Fish too!”
But, just as her interest seemed to be caught by something else, she bounded towards Tarch once again. The entire excursion lasted barely a minute. “Okay! Fight Bamboo first! Fight fight fight fight!” Bamboo grasped her main Bamboo pole tightly- before sending a moderately powerful swing at Tarch. Testing the waters, as it were.

This girl was insane! It was amazing how much she could accomplish in such a short time. Even more impressive was her attention span and focus. She never missed a beat, while also being completely oblivious to the world around her. Honestly, it was a skill Tarch wished he had. Her movements were just so natural. He supposed with all of those animal parts, she would be a very sort of ‘natural’ person. She even skewered some freshly caught Paozu Tuna, Tarch’s favorite.
“Oh boy! Yeah we’re definitely gonna have to cook those up when we’re done. For now- OH JEEZ!” Bamboo was already swinging, literally. Her bamboo pole was hurling towards him and fast. Should he grab his own wooden sword? Would he even be able to keep up? Perhaps he should focus on dodging before possibly arming himself. Tarch ducked below the pole, feeling it graze along his black hair. The teen quickly rolled past her, his gaze shooting toward his backpack. It was nestled securely on the cooking side of the river, his practice sword propped up on the side.
He quickly shook his head. This girl was easily twice his strength at least. There was no way he could possibly keep up with his sword at his basic level if even that. So he’d just have to fight the good old fashioned way. With his fists and his feet. Worst-case scenario the half saiyan would come out with a few more bumps and bruises than usual. So he’d send out his own attack to see if Bamboo could react as quickly s she could act. Tarch would pivot around and try to plant a firm kick in the girl’s back. Nothing too fancy, just enough to see if she too could think on his feet.

Tarch seemed to catch on fast- it was good he did, or this would be a laughably short fight. It seemed he was able to react to her surprise swing- twas a first for the ravenous natural being, as the surprise bamboo whack was both a potent opening attack and as a finisher. Usually, it did both simultaneously.
Those types of fights were no fun, though.
Instead, he ducked behind her and planted a kick on Bamboo's back. Woah! He had a bit more force than she had anticipated, and she didn't expect him to hit her back right away. She showed this suprise by stumbling forwards at his attack, almost as if she were falling over... but the battle-addict had a bit more tact than that. Before she could hit the ground, the ground hit her bamboo pole- she used it to pivot her fall forwards into forward momentum.
She landed adjacent to Tarch, spun around to face him, then brandished her bamboo pole like it were a spear. In one fluid motion, she rushed him, emerald green hair splaying across the surrounding sky. On her face was a pleasant grin- after all, she was doing what she loved the most.

It seemed Tarch’s hit went over well. Very well, too well in fact. Tarch could sense the difference in power between the two. A regular, albeit decent, strike like that would hurt but likely not be sending a fighter that was twice as strong as himself tumbling down. Sure enough, the wild girl was swinging back to her feet with no trouble at all. Admittedly, Tarch was glad to see his attack taken so well just as much as Bamboo was to see hers. Where would the fun be if someone that strong couldn’t bounce back? Then you’d just have two strong people kind of flailing at each other and hoping it worked.
So the young half saiyan swiftly landed back on his feet, getting ready for whatever Bamboo had to dish out next. From the looks of things, she still opted to continue using her bamboo pole. Only this time she used it more like a spear, poking out at Tarch. Though Tarch could vaguely tell which way the spear was coming, he was still just a little too slow to avoid most of the jabs.
Tarch would be pushed back, grunting with each it. Maybe he should have used his sword after all? He wasn’t too good at attacking with it, but he seemed to have a knack for blocking, and boy would he have loved to be blocking with anything other than his bare hands right about now. He already knew he couldn’t keep up with a sword, but maybe using it purely for defense would be better? Even as he brought his arms up in time to stop any major hits, the pole still left plenty of marks. He had to put some distance between the two of them. Tarch would try to send a large ki blast as Bamboo’s feet, trying to throw her off balance long enough to jump back. Then he would dash forward, his feet gliding above the ground. Just as he would move to try and punch Bamboo in the face, she would instead find the boy going straight through her as he left a simple moving afterimage.
“Sorry, just wanted to grab my sword!” Tarch called out behind her, now trying to land another very real kick to her back. This time though, he hoped to be ready if she did her little stumble forward like before, that is assuming his attack hit at all.

Fast and defensive- that was the read Bamboo was getting on the Saiyan child. He seemed able to block her rush of hits, no small feat considering the difference in their strength. Bamboo tracked his movements with a practiced ease, continuing her assault all the while. Until, at least, Tarch sent a blast of Ki at Bamboo's feet.
She yelped and leaped up a little, not expecting the ki blast. She had fought fighters who used Ki before, yes, but she wasn't really used to the small, acute type of blast that had just been flung at her. She was ready for big, superfluous shows of power- but the tiny one caught her off guard more than it likely should have.
However, the gesture indicated to Bamboo something much different. It showed Bamboo that using her own powers were fine.
She wouldn't pass up the opportunity- normally, she would refrain from using her authority over nature in a fight. She thought it to be cheating, since no matter how hard a fighter trained, they couldn't do the same things which she could. Now, though, she knew that Tarch had a way to fight back. There were no other reasons stopping her from taking action, now.
As Tarch attempted to kick her from behind, she did not move from her spot. Instead, she bent over and rooted herself in the ground. Moments later, spikes erupted from her back, piercing the back of the sweater she wore. They were made of bone, with a sheen whiteness and uneven surface. They extended outwards like a spiky shield, blocking her back from harm.
Assuming that Tarch was stopped, or at least caught off-guard by the sudden protrusion, Bamboo would leap forward. She would then spin, materialize a blunt Bamboo pole in her hand, and toss it towards the Saiyan child.

Tarch smiled widely. Once more it looked like he was going to land a hit on the animal woman. Unfortunately, this couldn’t have been further from the truth. Just as his kick was about to make contact, what looked like a large horn or maybe a tusk jutted out from her back. Either way, Tarch’s foot slammed right into the new bony appendage and did far more damage to himself than to Bamboo. The poor teen hobbled to his other foot, feeling as if he just kicked a steel slab without any ki behind him. Tarch wouldn’t get a chance to rest though.
As the young hybrid jumped back, Bamboo followed his unsuccessful attack with a much more potent one of her own. Somehow this girl created yet another pole, this time purely to beam at her opponent. Tarch brought his sword up to block, though with only one foot to properly balance on, the bamboo shot right past it, catching Tarch in the shoulder and knocking him to the ground.
“Well okay then!” he grunted before hopping back to his feet. “Guess we’re getting serious now!” Tarch took off his trademark jacket and tossed it over with the rest of his gear. His shoulder and foot were definitely bruised from those two heavy hits, but it was nothing that could stop even a half saiyan like Tarch. Minor ache aside, he was still having the time of his life, as evidenced by the wide smile on his face. His unarmed hand would then ignite in a blue fire. If his years of gaming taught the kid anything, it was that fire beats grass. Something about that line of thinking felt familiar for him though.
Tarch would then disappear, leaving behind a single smirking afterimage. Then he’d appear behind Bamboo but wouldn’t strike yet. Once more he’d vanish from sight, only to pop up directly in front of his opponent. The teen would then attempt to land a clean hit to the animal woman with his flaming fist.

Success! It seemed that her little trick was successful- after all, she was pretty sure that the kid didn't expect bones to pop out of her back. Most people didn't.
However, he took the turning tide of battle rather well- a clear sign to Bamboo that her instinct of the kid was spot-on. He was definitely a fighter, and more than capable of, well, being capable. He wasn't as strong as her in terms of raw power, sure, but disrespecting a fighter because of an arbitrary sense of strength seemed silly. Bamboo wouldn't have liked it done to her, at least. She was sure that there was something he could do- something which he did, when he vanished from Bamboo's sight for a moment. Confused, she turned her head back and forth, momentarily losing her sense of where the Saiyan child had ran off to. She would soon get her answer, though-
Eep! Fire! Bamboo didn't really expect that- since she didn't, she was hit, the hot flames brushing against her face for a moment. However, she recuperated quickly, dropping low and somersaulting backwards to put distance between herself and the Saiyan. She wiped some burnt material off her cheek with the back of her sleeve, a smile never leaving her face. Not bad! However, Bamboo had more tricks up her sleeve as well- she wouldn't be outdone so soon.
In a single bound, Bamboo took to the treetops, leaping from one tree to the other. Eventually, she would be nothing but a green blur running circles as she hopped from tree to tree, hoping to throw off Tarch's sense of where she was. Her hopping would come to a halt a few moments later, replaced by a fist flying down towards Tarch from above!

Yet again Tarch found himself smiling as he landed a nice hardy hit on Bamboo. Naturally, he was a little worried he may have burnt er a little too much as she wiping some of the blackened marks from her face. But if the smile glued to her face was any indication, then she was doing wonderfully. Perhaps a little too wonderful. As he let his worry get the better of him, Tarch would allow the animal girl to leap up into the trees without so much of a puff of ki to stop her.
However, after a few moments, he was actually glad he did. “Ohoho YES!” That was one of his favorite moves. Tarch watched a green blur barely distinguishable from the leaves darting around the forest canopy. He himself often enjoyed turning into a blur of speed circling an opponent and confusing them. The problem was, he had no idea how to counter it. After so long of using this move himself he ever once faced it. As such it came as no big surprise when he was decked perfectly in the face by the wild animal. Now it was his turn.
“You’re not the only one who likes going fast!” he called out starting up his own speedy dash. The teen would follow Bamboo, trying to keep a close tail on her even if it meant flying back up into the trees. As his excitement grew, so to did his speed his aura shining just a touch brighter than before. As soon as he was sure he would get a clear shot, Tarch would go under his opponent and attempt to deliver a small rising kick to her side.

Wow, he was getting stronger! The kid had far more surprises up his sleeve than Bamboo had anticipated- ki attacks, nifty maneuvers, and now this! His increase in strength caught Bamboo off-guard, and his rising kick connected with her gut. The force of the strike sent her flying upwards, though the canopy of trees.
Bamboo stared down at the sea of green for a moment, distracted by the fact that she had just been hit. She smelt the air, confirming the increase in power, as well as the location of the boy, below her. Bamboo liked to be surprised- so far, the kid had been providing her with more than she had expected. A battle-addict would not be done in so easily, though.
From the sky dropped a squirrel- the rodent dashed over the treetops, tracing Tarch's scent. They plotted out their movements carefully, as their small size temporarily cost them power for a mobility advantage. Eventually, though, they found the boy they were looking for- the squirrel dropped down from the canopy to the branch Tarch had a foothold on.
Then, the squirrel would morph from a rodent into a bear, and the newfound weight bent the tree backwards!
The bear would then morph back into it's most comfortable form- which happened to be Bamboo. However, Bamboo was much lighter then a bear- the tree certainly agreed with her at least. The tree released it's kinetic energy, with the aim of sending both Bamboo and Tarch flying haphazardly though the trees!

As the battle shifted into the trees, Tarch would be met with the most confusing sight. Though he lost visual signs of his opponent, he could still sense her. So it was only natural that he was incredibly shocked when a little squirrel came back down instead of Bamboo. At first, he dismissed the rodent as just part of the local wildlife until he realized his inner senses directed him right towards it.
She could shapeshift?! That’s so cool! Unfortunately for her, Tarch knew that no squirrel could possibly have that high of a power level. Could they? Maybe an alien squirrel. Or a zoan. But a regular earth squirrel? That’d be ridiculous, to say the least. So Tarch took aim, pointing his palm toward the small animal. He had a perfect shot at one point too. Yet, even if he knew this was his opponent, blasting a small squirrel felt just plain wrong.
The rodent didn’t stay long, however. Soon a large bear took its place. Well, that wasn’t any better. Tarch didn’t want to blast a bear either. The Bamboo hurling toward him atop a whipping tree was a different story. Now the two were flying uncontrollably through the woods. The teen tried to throw a punch, but instead clumsily tumbled through the air. That’s when he got an idea. He ignited both of his fists in blue fire. Then, instead of trying to connect them with Bamboo, he’d fire them off behind him, with his legs stretched out in an effort to propel himself right into her face.
[UA2] Torrent Crash used for 39,600PL as a way to launch Tarch into a kick. KP: 1/3
