Starting PL: 22,290
It had been a little bit since she left the Northern territories. It was almost nostalgic, leaving that place after she had done so much in such a little amount of time there. Earth was certainly an action packed place, and with some clever consideration when it came to training, it was also a place that could be extremely beneficial for someone in the pursuit of strength. So long as they used the right things at their disposal at the right time. Such considerations is what got Safe in the middle of a dense jungle with the occasional hilly clearing. Wading between trees, it wasn't uncommon at all for her to spot some sort of wild animal or monster. Specifically, the merit for coming here was that the remote and isolated location made for a perfect opportunity as dangerous creatures decided to attack again and again. What she had been subjecting herself to was a ruthless and seemingly endless cycle of Rage Gene outbreaks brought on by the incessant attacks from these monsters and beasts. From things as basic as tarantulas to as terrifying as full scale dinosaurs that roamed between the massive trees.
Narrowing her eyes, upon spotting a particular rustling in the trees she fell deadly still. Listening closely, she heard several more rustles circling around behind her until, anticipating an attack a beast jumped out at her! Spinning around on her heel, the tactic which never failed was exploiting her own perceptions to enter these uncontrollable rages that pushed her to her limits for her. Particularly, the fact that a mere animal decided it could attack her meant on a more primal level she looked vulnerable, weak, to even a basic creature of Earth. While that certainly wasn't the case, without the innate capability to sense Power Levels she did look fairly docile in her normal form. However that fact would be flipped right onto it's head as soon as she started to transform. Leaping off to the side, what turned out to be a Raptor flew passed her and into another set of bushes. Starting to audibly growl, Safe's right eye twitched and her hands crushed inwards into white knuckled fists. Her fists were so tight, that her nails almost broke the skin of her palm. As the anger built and she became more and more irrational, less provoking things got to her easier. How the leaf that brushed up against her calf sent pangs of anger through her entire form, making her hairs stand up where they were. As her growling got louder and louder, the form jumped from the bush again followed by an entire pack of raptors.
The fight was overly one sided, yet this training was not about the opponent. It was about constantly exhausting herself just before she would quite literally enter lethal territory, only so she could do it again and again to raise her maximum limits. Each and every time this repetitious cycle came to a close, she'd collapse and pass out. A single time she was quite literally woken up by a beast closing in to attack. Though the difference in power even at her relatively miserable level was so much higher than natural creatures that even if it did manage to bite down on her, the teeth would struggle to actually break skin. Rolling over and looking towards the sky in the midst of a clearing, she wondered just what to do. Did she continue, or did sh- That was about the time when her stomach rumbled. Pressing a hand against her midriff, her features contorted as her appetite got the better of her. She'd have to pull up all of that food she'd not intended to actually eat.
Ten minutes later, and that clearing was packed. A second hill of reptilian bodies had been formed, a lot of them charred and smokey, cooked just from the sheer explosive and thermal power that her attacks had. Some were understandably disintegrated, but the ones hit with eradication arrays had a surprising ability to just die and not actually turn into ashes. Recalling her time on the Death World of her home system, Safe reverted back to barbaric tendencies. With her hands she prepared the food, getting her hands messy as she divided up the various cuts of meat onto the ground. She had thankfully cooked these things so thoroughly with her attacks that the only prep work she needed to do was assort them into drumsticks and skin the things. Piling up an abundance of scaly hide behind her, she'd sit down cross legged and begin to feast. Drumsticks that dwarfed the size of her head disappeared in seconds as it appeared her Saiyan half had the better of her eating tendencies. Gulping down juicy morsel after morsel she found herself oblivious to her surroundings in the little clearing she had found herself in.
After all, it was pretty easy given the comparable circumstances to imagine herself seated within a cave on that world she needed to survive in, alone and for a long time, scared. Just another beast of the wilderness enjoying the spoils of victory, but even she couldn't be proud over coming out on top of a battle with literal normal planetary animals. This was nothing compared to the monsters she was familiar with dealing with. Rolling out some of the hide in the clearing to form a large smooth surface, she laid down after creating a massive pile of bones, letting out a long line of hiccups that seemed to have no end in sight. Eyes bulging with the force of each hiccup, she just stared through the canopy above her. To Safe, she was alone and free from any encounters. Though the reality would be considerably different with the emergence of two different figures she'd have never had the opportunity to meet before. With plenty of meat to spare even considering her Saiyan eating tendencies, if these new figures that would inevitably arrive were hungry; it was seemingly for the taking.

Auber had never actually took the time to explore the various forests of Earth, he'd mostly just used them for a little lunch break thanks to the diverse form of life that inhabits not only this particular region but also the entire planet, it's safe to say Earth had a lot of bio-diversity.
He made his way through the thick foliage, a good thing about these forests is that there were hardly any people in it, lest they meet a grisly fate at the hands of the aggressive wilflife that dominate these jungles, although if they were ever to take Auber, they would quickly discover he is an apex predator in his own right.
Putting these thoughts aside, he sensed quite the decent power in a particular direction, it was weaker than his but that hardly mattered nowadays, perhaps they had a transformation of sorts so immediately letting his guard down was not smart, he made his way towards the power, curious.
It wasn't long before he was smelling some roasted meat, Raptor, if memory serves him correctly, he made sure to remember the food he ate the last time he was on Earth, it seems this person shares in his tendecies, a Saiyan? Mayhaps.
He eventually does make it onto the scene, and find that his enigmatic person was not in fact a Saiyan, or at least from what he could see "Enjoying your meal?" Auber asked, striking up small talk as he crossed his arms.

Aurora Starting PL: 21,865. KP: 3/3
Aurora hadn't exactly planned on a jaunt to the large forest that dominated a sizeable chunk of this planet's, Earth's (she had to remember to give it an actual name), eastern landmass, but as she had been doing her best to try and find either a house to take or a cave to settle into until she could get her hands on some actual money, she had found herself flying over the forest. The trees here... looked quite different, in fact, to what she had thought was the common type found upon this planet. Cocking her head in curiosity, the Arcosian slowed herself down and descended into the bowels of the forest. Her bare feet touched upon the leafy ground, and she found the sensation... curious. Not crunchy like in the north. More just... soft. How strange, Earth was becoming to her. This planet was certainly very temperate, and while she was somewhat uncomfortable with the level of heat here in the east, it wasn't as bad as she had found it to be within the south. Looking around, Aurora glanced towards some of the odd looking trees. They were... rather strange. Looking far more like they were manufactured than anything sshe would suspect could grow in nature, but as her scanner registered the odd looking tree, it connected with her Ship's database and informed her that it was a natural construct found on earth, known as 'Bamboo'.
"Curious." She murmurs, before looking around and up at the sky streaming through the leaves found at the top of these 'bamboo' trees. While it was certainly warm all around... here in the cover of this forest things were a little cooler, and the Arcosian quickly found herself wandering slowly through the the green world around her. There was something... rather peaceful about this area. She wasn't sure what it was exactly, but she found herself quickly slipping into her thoughts. Of course there were certain ones that... weren't available at the time, yet called her incessantly, and so the woman was brought back to the waking world every few minutes in order to avoid falling down a rabbit hole she had been resisting ever since... the events that transpired upon Arcose. Even the barest thought of that time sent her mind hurtling back to her home, brought her back to that... dark place that steadily grew there. But every time, she found the will, whether it was inspired by fear, anger or stubbornness, to rip herself from its clawing grasp. There would be a time for that, and it was when her home was once again her home, and her people were free.
As for now, however... she was nowhere near strong enough to do any of what she wished to. Of course, she had been training. Doing her best to raise her own power level. But... compared to the saiyans, as much as she hated to admit it, she was disastrous at training. It just wasn't something her species often did, blessed as they were with their naturally powerful physiques. Even now a portion of her focus was expended upon restraining herself down to this form, to keep it suppressed. Perhaps that was why her progress had been so slow as of recently? It would be harder, she guessed, to get results from training if she was holding herself back. But then again... she wasn't sure if that was even true. She had no idea what she was doing, and the perennial frown upon her face deepened as her short tail swished in response to her emotions, tip just barely reaching and sliding through the foliage at her feet.
A sigh leaves her as she shakes her head to try and 'reset' her thoughts. All it meant was that she would need to try harder than she was at the time, put more thought in, put more... just put more in. It was her only choice, her only option, as failure wouldn't be allowed. Even the slightest setback prolonged Saiyan rule, extended the gap between her and those on high, those that had... that had... "NO!" A scream tore from her as, for a split second, her form rippled and shifted, as if something was trying to escape. Her back bulged, her tail rippled and her crystals spiked as a ripple of power burst through the forest and shook the closest bamboo trees, before she reigned in control once more and paused for a second. Leaning against a bamboo tree, which she would have noticed was surprisingly sturdy were she not a little busy, Aurora brings a hand to her chest and does her best to try and calm her breathing. She was okay. It was over. She was- She was on earth. Away from it all. She just- She needed something else, something to take her attention. The forest was calming. She just needed it to be calming in... a different way.
Fortunately for Aurora, and perhaps unfortunately for someone else, that was the moment when her scouter pinged her once more, having detected two power levels within a reasonably close vicinity. Her bio-armour raised in confusion and surprise at finding such beings in... well, in such a random place like this. Then again... her mind flashed back towards her meeting with Dion and Zhalla. Two extraordinarily powerful earthlings, who just so happened to encounter her as she was trying to get used to earth, with no prior experience with one another. Perhaps that was how things kind of... worked? There was an earthling saying she had heard of them say before in passing conversation. 'Birds of a feather flock together'. A very simple and basic metaphor, befitting such a species, but something... well she supposed simplicity was all that was needed as she began to head in the direction of the power levels. This was as good a distraction as she was going to get, after all.
Eventually the bamboo gave way to a small clearing in the middle of the forest, and in the centre was... well, actually it was all around her. Meat and corpses, with a good half of them seemingly cooked (or rather charred beyond recognition). In the centre of it all, laying upon a mat of bloodied and charred animal hide, was a... creature. Seemingly female in countenance, and with grey skin and ears that reminded Aurora of her own people in a way, except with the trappings of fur that the saiyans and earthlings had. Her frown only deepens when she sees another figure in the clearing, seemingly an earthling, but with a power level around Zhalla's. Just how many powerful Earthlings were there...? Or was there something more to this? Either way, she'd soon find out as she opens her mouth.
"I'd wondered why the forest was so quiet."

Sitting up as she heard some rustling in the treeline, Safe's eyes narrowed and she let out a yawn. She supposed she was full, so she figured she could at least offer some food instead of add to the pile. Assuming of course that these were actual people and not animals. She'd been in these forests long enough to know more often than not that wasn't the case. Though she'd become attached to interaction somewhat in her short time on Earth. Having been out on one particular Death World for such a long time, she didn't actually have too many memories with others. Perhaps in her youngest years, but it was incredibly easy to forget those earlier memories; and she had done precisely that. When what appeared to be a Saiyan stepped through the clearing, one part of her sighed in relief while another side of her was sighing because this could spell trouble. She only knew what Kraktus and her mother had told her, and if these people could quite typically reach some 'Super Saiyan' state, if this guy wasn't in the business of being a friendly face then she could be in for some serious trouble. After all, if she had been on Kraktus's bad side he'd have been much more privy to nip the problem at the root and not even give her an opportunity to become strong enough to serve as competition.
Then she was asked a question, which inclined her to believe perhaps this figures intention wasn't innately malicious. The question in itself felt weird to her, was he mocking her eating habits? Considering the massive pile of bones, she had certainly enjoyed her meal. Though if she thought about it harder- hard enough to make her brows furrow and her head hurt a little, she would realize that it was just a simple question. Taking in a deep breath and resting a palm on her forehead to hide the vein that'd popped up to the surface of her skin, it faded into obscurity as her stress levels were corrected and all once more became right with her own little world. Letting her hand fall back to her side, she'd give a response.
"Mhm. Earth food is surprisingly tender, it's yummy." She said, giving a smile as she pointed towards the pile of cooked food. Considering it's appearance, a bunch of reptile stacked on top of one another like some kind of horrific lasagne cooked to death and beyond, the charred nature and black burnt outer skin likely indicated that the meat had been dried to the point of no return. There was no saving that meat, at least if your standards were more geared towards proper food and not what fit the bill. It was in fact a flaky, rough and super dry meat now. Perhaps if it was prepared with the intention of being eaten it wouldn't have been scorched so hard that all liquid within it just evaporated into nothingness, but that wasn't the treatment intended for the creatures when they were taken down. Safe would encouragingly speak up towards the figure who looked like a Saiyan- she wasn't ten billion percent sure, after all. "Oh! Right, yes. If you want some you're free to help yourself. I ate my fill already, this Jungle is packed with different creatures. Though overall Earth's monsters are pretty tame." She stated, nodding her head once. Such was the ways of the Universe, some places got much scarier hands than others. Her mind trailed off to that horrifying planet, dwarfing even the environmental catastrophes of Ganmetar.
Regardless, so long as she remained unprovoked she sought to remain casual. Just making an effort to scrap off any dry meat from the pile of bones she'd procured from her meal, old habits died hard as she just naturally seemed to be trying to procure any useful tools from these. Even at one point in her trip down habitual and routine lane, chomping down on one with sharp canines to start grinding it into a more proper shape for her needs. To justify her behavior, she did figure she'd need to have a house on Earth if she was going to be here so long getting powerful and searching for the Dragon Balls, so there was that. That was about when she heard the next series of rustling. She spoke up towards Auber.
"I dunno who you are, and I'm not going to assume how strong you are, so that could be a monster. Just warning you." She said, still gnawing away at the bone like a jackhammer- almost comedic in how it appeared while staring into the bushes where she had heard movement. Within not much time at all, some really weird looking person walked through. Though almost immediately Safe's eyes crossed when she did some self reflection. She would be pretty mad if somebody called her really weird looking, especially if they just looked upon her in bewilderment or shock- especially the latter. She did notice some familiar traits this specific Humanoid being held compared to her. Namely just the box-like ears that she thought were signature of her own people. This being the first time she'd seen otherwise, a slow tilt of her head was the only sign that the figurative gears were turning in her head. Was this person like a distant species? Related to her father's people? She wondered, but instead of thinking when the person was all but twenty meters away, she called out.
"Excuse me!? Hi! Why do you have the same type of ears I have?! Are your people related to my people or something?" She asked, eyes narrowing near the end. How did that even make sense? A finger reached up to rub at her temple and she set the saw down bone starting to resemble an axe down onto the ground. Taking in a deep breath, she then followed up with more to say. "If you want, you can also come eat the leftovers too. I have too much here for even me, and I have a super big appetite ahahaha!" Queue gigantic pile of bones that she was currently makeshift building into tools and the likes. It had to be at least two whole raptors worth, if not more.

It seems this person was more civil than he imagined, well, that made things a lot easier, but in any case, he ponders for a moment if he should accept her offer, and soon enough, he comes to a decision, he already had his fill, he wasn't that hungry anymore "I'm good, thanks." He replied, waving her off.
They were, soon in the presence of an Arcosian, who Auber could never tell if they were male or female, but he'd refer to this one as female unless stated otherwise "I took no part in making it so." Auber stated, first and foremost, therefore placing enough faith in the Arcosian to put the pieces together on who the culprit was.
He then soon found himself thinking on something curious, and he unfurled his tail from his waist, letting it swing there in open-view, let's see how this Arcosian reacts.

As Aurora entered the clearing with the pile of charred corpses and two... beings, she rather obviously stared towards where the grey being sat, who had just greeted her in a rather... exuberant way, she supposed the words were. The pile of corpses... she, Aurora supposed, the pile of corpses she sat upon was rather impressive. What was more interesting than that, however, was the way the Grey alien seemed to take note of Aurora's own ears. So it wasn't just her who had noticed, hm? Although she hadn't bothered to try and offend her species by claiming possible relation to such a species, that obviously wasn't a problem for the grey alien as they addressed the Arcosian. "I'm afraid that I'll have to decline." Aurora responds to her invitation to come and eat the... food, she supposed it could be called, in the barest sense. Then again, just because it was cooked meat didn't really mean that it could be called food, and her face screwed up at the smell of charred meat that wafted towards her as she got closer. Of course, there was a greater reason as to why she had declined the offer to eat than mere pickiness. Despite her experiences upon the planet so far, Aurora was still suspicious by nature, and while she stopped a little distance off from the large pile of food and its creator she also made sure that she angled herself to not have to be so close to the Earthling that was also present. Or what she assumed to be an Earthling. Her attention was a little more captured by the grey alien.
Said alien seemed to have been... making something from the corpses of the monsters, a variety of materials and what seemed to be tools, or perhaps they were weapons, from the bones. How... quaint, Aurora supposed. Striding a little closer, her scouter analysed one of the more intact corpses and informed her that it was what was known as a 'Raptor' upon this planet, a being native to jungles such as this. "You realise that killing so many of these could potentially upset the environmental balance?" She asks, fully recognising the hypocrisy in her statement as her mind flashes back to her lessons and life when growing up on Arcose. Her home planet had very few still wild species roaming the planet at this point, with the majority of the still sruviving members being placed within zoos for preservation, safe keeping and experimentation. As Arcosians had spread and developed technology to augment their already impressive phisique, they had hunted predators and prey alike, whether it was for sport or actual containment however is... somewhat debated at this point. Either way, the end result remains the same. An arctic planet, with so little diversity left among it and dominated by the ones that had done the deed.
Here on Earth, however, things were so wildly different that Aurora was still trying to wrap her head around it. Instead of bleak stretches of nothing but cold rock and ice, dominated only by the most powerful of plants and beasts that still stalked the very few wild places left, here on earth there seemed to be... almost the opposite. Wilderness, filled with beasts and plants and all other manners of life, stretched as far as the eye could see in many places and it was only ever broken up by comparatively small pockets of civilisation. Perhaps it was different in the southern half of the planet, a place Aurora refused to go out of already disliking the heat here, but here in the north? It seemed as if the wild reigned supreme. It was... almost refreshing, in a way, even though she had never experienced such a thing before. Perhaps it was a racial memory?
Even the beasts of this planet were as strange and diverse as its landscape and people. Her mind flashed back to the creatures, the 'Yetis', that she had first encountered upon the steep slopes and snowy terrain of Mt. Frappe. They had ambushed her out of the blizzard that had started (something she meant to go check out sooner or later, having a small suspicion after talking to Zhalla for a while), and had been strong enough to give her trouble in her suppressed form. Now, here in the eastern part of the planet, there were entirely new types of these creatures. Scaled and leathery, instead of clad in fur. It was... certainly strange, to say the least. But in a good way. In a way that made Aurora almost want to see more of what this strange planet had to offer. Perhaps, once her home was free, she could set about trying to restore it to its former glory, much like... well, as much as it pained her to admit this, perhaps it could take a few pages from Earth's book.
Looking up from where she realised she had silently been standing for a couple of seconds, Aurora shook her head and glanced towards the two. The grey alien seemed to still be crafting tools, whilst the other- Tail. Monkey. Humanoid. Dark hair. Dark Eyes.
SAIYAN.
Her mind ground to a halt as images and sounds flashed through her head. Screams, flashes of bright light and panic. A colossal crash echoes through her mind, drowning out all attempts at thought. The sting of ghostly tears pricks at her eyes. The scent, the warmth, the feel of blood washes over her. A house destroyed. A family killed. A life ruined. A grudge sworn and a promise made. These all flashed through her within an instant as her body shifted, growing in size and strength as her horn extended and her bio armour began to grow over previously uncovered portions of her body. It flooded over her mouth, before condensing and becoming the ruby red of her crystals. Her red eyes almost seemed to glow as they narrowed to pinpricks of colour and she burst from the ground with enough force to crack it beneath her. She would close the gap between her and the Saiyan in an instant, and rear her fist black to punch him, rage and sorrow tearing their way through her as the walls of the mental dam she had put up burst and everything comes flooding out in a wordless cry.
Aurora has entered her Brute form, bringing her PL up to 43,730. She has attacked Auber with [A1] Break: Aurora rears her arm back, before delivering a powerful blow with her fist. Deals 33% of her PL as damage. Deals 14,430 damage.

Munch munch munch munch! Safe continued to contently enjoy the scraps that still remained clinging to the bones, a cheery expression over her face. And almost as if a pattern had been struck, she gnawed each bone she yummed clean into a tool. One had been an axe, and that was about it. Since as she thought about it more, why did she even need tools? Her fists could breaks rocks, fell trees and... Oh. Scratching the back of her head, she just lazily tossed the bone behind her and into the woods, looking towards the two that'd stuck around. The first guy seemed to keep it short by just saying no and lurking around. However one peculiarity she did notice was the motion of his tail. Wait, he had a tail? Raising one brow, she wondered if he was a monkey? Super Monkey? It was all making sense! Her mother had told her Saiyan stories, and even some relating to herself about turning into an Oozaru, a gigantic ape with little to no control. She'd talked about it a little with Kraktus. So does that mean pure Saiyan's are like advanced monkeys in the literal sense? Like, hoo hoo ha ha but more like- that explained her energy. Her eyes widened as horror as this dawned upon her like a piano from above. She just blinked. She was half monkey, she was half hoo hoo ha ha. She'd gotten she was half Oozaru from her angered form, but the full realization hadn't dawned on her that Monkey was a synonym for Saiyan. Almost befitting of this new realization, her left hand scratched her back and she went cross eyed, her other hand looking around to scratch at her spiky hair. She then just sadly looked to the pile of perfectly good food off to the side with an almost lazy and disappointed expression. In hindsight, she felt pretty guilty about how much food she would be wasting in that case. Maybe there was a way to preserve it until supper if she was optimistic about it, though! Aurora had also declined her invite to have some food, and she could only wonder why. Though, never in her life had other Humanoids been particularly in the realm of enemies, perhaps opponents was one way to put it. She was quick to naively trust others and believe that even if they had bad intentions they would show her mutual honor and respect. So she could only imagine they didn't want it because they didn't like it. She couldn't blame them, either. Despite having terrible standards from eating crazy monsters from a Death World most her life, even she knew that just frying them with an energy blast was way overkill for the purposes of eating them. Cooking them slowly over a fire until a moist tenderness came over them was essential! Thinking about that made her mouth water a little. She found herself scooting over on her bottom towards the food pile again, that made her want seconds. Munching away some more as she yanked off a drumstick, she'd respond to Aurora with an innocent look and poofy food packed cheeks. " Whuch do you mean?" She said, her words garbled a little from speaking with her mouth full. A flake of food even went flying as she was talking. She didn't seem to have the highest level of etiquette, only natural considering where she picked up all of her habits. Yet that was about the moment things took a heavy turn for the worse. When this Aurora looked at the Saiyan's tail, at first there was a silence only broken by the faint munching sound of Safe. She looked between them, confused from the silence until some sort of transformation began to be undertaken by the Arcosian who's name she had yet to learn. Turning into a much larger form reminiscent of her Rage Gene, she wondered just how closely they could be related. Tilting her head to the side, it wasn't until Aurora burst from the ground and went flying towards Auber that Safe was actually effected. As the ground cracked and the seismic force rocked the nearby jungle, Safe was launched into the air as if she'd been double bounced on a trampoline or something. Sitting cross legged with a drumstick in her face, she clamped down to hold it with her teeth to free both hands to just dangle in the air as she did a full horizontal flip from the force she'd been ejected from the ground with. It was sort of exciting, at least at first. Flying head over heels, she came around full circle with a nasty looking faceplant. Not only that, but with a drumstick in her face the entire raptor thigh got cramped into her face and ruined- not to mention the other side of it plowing through who knows how nasty jungle dirt. Applying some pressure, her face came free with an audible pop, and with it came the drunkstick that she still had her teeth sank into. Yet that was about where the fun stopped, as her razor sharp canines chomped through the bite she'd taken to secure her hold onto the food. Staring forward as she munched the final bite, a growl started to emit from her. Not only did that audacity of this creatures actions cause her to be humiliated with raptor leg squishing against her face, but furthermore that same meat had an entire side of it ruined! Fused with dirt from the force of their crash landing, that drumstick would never see the light of day proper again. The only ones caring enough to eat those remains were bacteria and insects, uck. Having been so blatantly wronged, the Gray and Saiyan Hybrid's right eye twitched while various veins began to pop to the surface of her body. The growl got louder and louder as her body began to grow. Her arms thickened with muscle while she stood up onto both feet. She grew taller, muscles forming a massive frame, a wall of pure beef that prioritized raw physical power over speed and technique. Letting out an enraged roar of anger, her vision becoming blurry and all conscious thought gone, she just leapt into the air and brought both hands overhead. Eclipsing the sky above, she came crashing down on what the enraged Safe thought was the middle ground between both of them. She was certainly correct, and that meant while her attack did no damage, the resulting shockwave might speak of the force of the attack. It looked like this had officially gotten messy.

Goddamn it.
That was Auber's first thought as all Hell broke loose, first, the Arcosian got stupidly mad and went into their Brute Form right away, Auber prepared to defend himself and already had used his aftermirage technique to avoid being manhandled when suddenly the other alien being crashed in, sending Auber quite a few feet back thanks to the shockwave.
Seriously, he just unfurled his tail and already he has to deal with this absolute idiocy "Wow, what bad did I do to you for this to happen?" Auber asked with genuine curiosity, not that he really cared, she gave him a reason to use his strength to fight back, though first, he would like an answer to his question.
His base form should be enough, but just in case things get hairy, he might as well take his pod into consideration.

Aurora's eyes widened as the grey alien leapt forward between her and the saiyan, the shock wave forcing her back and her punch missing her target. A feral grown comes from behind her facial mask as her ruby red eyes narrow to nothing more than pinpricks. Her mind was overwhelmed by the screams of the past, the emotions she had locked and barred away, but that didn't mean she was acting mindless. Jumping back and using her tail as a support, she flips backwards with the force of the shock wave, landing with a hand in the earth to hold herself and keep from being blown away. Looking towards the grey alien, her brow furrows as she realises the differences and her mind ran through what she knew. It was larger than it had been at the beginning, a bulky form of nothing but pure muscle that restricted movement. While that should mean that it was slow, the raw power in such a form could easily make up for whatever it lacked in speed if the grey alien knew what it was doing, and even then it was strong enough to completely obliterate the ground they had been standing on. All in all, however... It wasn't a problem unless it tried to get in her way. Tried to stop her from- from making the Saiyan feel the same pain she had.
The Saiyan, the MONKEY, said something. Aurora didn't care what the words were, or what they were about. Instead, her only response was a feral growl that slowly began to lower in pitch and increase in volume. Her body began to swell once more, even as her form shifted and her horns grew and curved. Her muscles bulged almost unnaturally as her top half outpaced her lower, neck stretching forward jaggedly as her face elongates and her mask begins to swell. All over Aurora's body her bio armour seemed to spasm and flex, trying to push through to... something, but being reigned in by her at the last second as it flowed like liquid over her body before solidifying and shunting into place. Her powerful tail slammed into the ground as it too grew, cracking the earth with the sheer force behind it. Yet even once the transformation ended her body didn't stop swelling as she brings her new, powerful arms together for a moment and begins to grow once more, swelling to almost comical size, the growl now practically shaking the air as she strides closer.
A hand reaches out and grabs the shoulder of the large grey Alien, small in comparison with Aurora at the time and hauls backwards, throwing the raging beast into the air. It wouldn't be hurt that way, but would also think twice about trying to stop her as Aurora turns her attention to the Saiyan. She knew that in this modified form her defence would be weakened, but that was fine. All she needed... was one good hit and then she'd be able to have her revenge, or... she didn't know. Which was okay. That wasn't important right now. Right now all that mattered to the Arcosian was the Saiyan before her and anything that got in her way.
Aurora has entered Minotaur form, boosting her PL by 4 to 86,460 PL! Her KP is currently 3/3, regenerating at the end of this post, and she has used the Technique Bulking, boosting her Offence by x1 and diminishing her Defence by x3. Her final PL stats are: 109,325/21,865.

As soon as she slammed into the ground and started standing up to do something further, she felt a massive hand grip her shoulder. Too angry to really be afraid of such a force, she was about to spin around when she was lifted into the air and ejected from this mortal coil. Flailing in a cartwheel like shape, the angry half ape went flying into the canopy and with a poof of leaves disappeared from sight. With nothing but the faint roaring in the distance to go off of, it would seem like she had been handled. Yet that couldn't be further than the truth. Her Rage Gene was unreasonable, and she'd give everything she had against an opponent one hundred thousand times stronger than her until she was completely exhausted. The canopy started to shake as Safe bounded from one to another after having recovered, her hair having a couple sticks sticking through it as well as leaves being caught in her clothes.
Roaring again, it became clear that the gap was closing. The ground started to tremble and the sound of wood splintering got louder and louder and more frequent as the Gray and Saiyan Hybrid got more and more momentum beyond her bounding and leaping charge. Perhaps it truly was dangerous to have a fight in a forest, but at least with all of this commotion the animals had been scared away! Then it happened. Rebounding like a bouncy ball slammed against the floor, Safe had sprung back from the way she was hurled off with renewed vigor. Bursting from the canopy above the clearing, she was positioned in between the sun and them, the area darkening as the rage filled creature had set its target. This wasn't a neutral anger anymore, it was heavily skewed towards Aurora considering she had quite literally thrown her away. Raising a fist high in the sky, her body angled into a twist and her muscles tensed. Ambient power began to accumulate as her aura intensified to give a nasty smash. Then striking down like a comet from above, she aimed to slam a fist right into Aurora's face! It was almost in the blink of an eye, bursting down with a flash of light and attempting to dig her fist right into the big mean monsters face! If she was successful, the force of the punch would be so significant it would carry through and both fist and Aurora's head would slam into the ground to create another massive crack riddled crater amidst the mess that had already been created with their combined tantrums by this point. No matter how silly the idea was, it was undeniably a Safe idea.

It seemed that words would not get through this beast, normally Auber would refer to it as a really angry person but this fits everything that is a beast, relentless, enraged, and in most cases unstoppable, it reminded Auber of the Great Ape when Saiyans try to enter the form for the first time, of course, the mere Arcosian could never compare to a mighty Saiyan.
After the Gray Alien tried to get in-between the fight in a way, the Arcosian forcefully flung them away, clearly intent on having nobody get in it's way, and to reach it's objective, which was, in this case, him, he prepared to raise his arm and click his wrist in order to bring his pod over, once again, he would have to rely on his Ape form.
Or so it seemed, but then the Gray Alien returned once more, now just more furious than ever and went right for the Arcosian, Auber made sure to stay out of it's way if he was in it, after all, wouldn't want to get caught in front of that charge, would he? Now that he thought about it however...
Yes, this could work nicely, Auber supposed, the Arcosian was relentless, which meant it would do anything to get to him, and if that includes provoking or moving other individuals out of the way then so be it, of course, there are those who will fight back when provoked, thus is the case of the Gray Alien..
Hm, this could actually be quite the show, Auber jumped back onto a safe distance and watched, arms crossed, he could certainly use this enraged being to fight the other enraged being who was coming for him, he saved energy, he had protection, and most of all, he got a front row seat to a show! What's there not to like?
He only wished he could have brought some popcorn.

Aurora strode towards the Saiyan, now that the interruption had been dealt with. He would not escape her, nor her fury. Each step shook the ground, the earth rumbling and cracking beneath her as her aura flared. Her roar echoed out, except... that wasn't her. Ruby red eyes glanced to the side from where she was looking at the Saiyan, sitting there with an almost smug look on his face (something she intended to rip off), and from where she heard the distant roars coming she saw the trees shake and the earth tremble for a reason that wasn't her. It seemed the grey Alien was more mindless in this form than she had expected. Less animalistic, more all consuming rage. Alright then, that simply meant a change of plan. Break it to the point it couldn't interfere. She could apologise later, but at this point the Arcosian was already getting sick of any interruptions. She looked towards the Saiyan once more and took another step towards him before a grey blur burst from the treeline and a roar of Aurora's own bursts forward from behind her face mask, born of frustration mixed with the rage and sorrow she was feeling and she wheels to face the enraged Safe.
Her fists dart forward in a blur, far faster than she had any right to be moving in her current size, as her fist meets Safe's. Their fists clash as ki explodes from the contact, bursts of their own unique coloured Ki screaming through the air and rocking the world, bamboo trees snapped off from the very force of it as her and Safe's fists clash for a moment before... Aurora's fist begins to push back, and eventually continues on, pushing through and blowing the grey Alien's arm back. For a moment there was nothing as the Alien seemingly hovered in the sky, but the moment was broken as Aurora's fists impacted against her torso and arms in a bursting flurry of blows before finally punching her forcefully in the centre of the stomach, a titanic clap echoing out through the forest as flesh met flesh. Safe's form would burst away from her in a blur of movement, except this time Aurora would follow after her, and would aim to grab the raging alien as she flew through the forest, holding her up by the neck and forcefully ramming her through a multitude of Bamboo trees before twisting mid air and hurling her towards the ground as hard as she dared. "Stay down." The Arcosian growls, success or not, from behind her mask as she floats, looking towards the Alien. She could find the Saiyan soon, she just needed to eliminate this random factor in the fight. "I'll apologise later when you're sane. For now, stay. Down. This isn't your fight, Alien. And I promise that you want no part of it." She forced her voice to stay firm and calm, even as her mind raged and tore at her. She NEEDED to find that FILTHY MONKEY. TO MAKE IT FEEL THE PAIN. THE ANGUISH. MAKE IT SCREAM, CRY, BEG FO- Control yourself. If she focused on the simple rage, she'd be no better than the Alien before her. She would need her mind to fight the Saiyan, not this... thing.
Aurora has used her [UA2] Crush: Aurora delivers a devastating flurry of blows. This 66% of her PL, for a total of 72,155.
This Technique has Clashed with Safe's Extinction Spike and succeeded with a difference of 72,155 - 44,580 = 27,575.
KP: 1/3
Total Damage Taken: 0%

As her fist slammed into Aurora's and an explosion erupted from the collision, Safe tried to press the advantage and put more force into her strike to carry it through. Yet deep down, it was almost unsurprisingly familiar that it was not her who was gaining ground. Instead, it was the person in front of her. Her brooding feelings of inferiority aside, her expression almost became something of a neutral bottled anger as opposed to that active screaming and rage that she expressed before. It was in that moment that Aurora fully overpowered Safe's punch and her arm launched back behind her and left her main body exposed that the flurry of blows could follow through and begin dotting her form. With each strike her body contorted in a various direction, seemingly having gone limp through either being knocked out, having given up, or some strange instinctive measure to just ride out the wave of strikes for whatever reason. With a final massive blow to send her into the air, Safe went soaring back from where she'd burst out from- this time not alone. Gazing with empty eyes forward as crystalline drops broke free from her eyelids to sparkle and fade to nothingness in the canopy, a hand gripped around her throat. Each time her back slammed into a tree, it only heightened her sense of inferiority. Just how long would it take to be on the other side, and how could she one day prove them all wrong if she couldn't even hold herself up in what she at first had thought was an even fight. Though, of course it wasn't. This person like all of the rest, had been holding back. Maybe not even for their pride, but because they pitied her. Smashing her through several final trees that splintered and littered the forest floor, she was pulled back and slammed down towards the ground. With a massive burst of sound that echoed through the nearby area like a thunderclap, the dirt around her pressed inwards from the excessive force and made a crater that she laid in the middle of. She had nothing left. Even in her barely conscious state, her form was already using the absolute last of her reserves. Doing nothing more than sputtering on fumes, she hated herself in this moment. Despite all of what just happened, and despite the fact that she hated it, even she would've done the same thing had she been given the conscious choice. Fight with everything you have, until you can't fight anymore. Her body creaked almost mechanically as she overrode every impulse to just stay lying down. A feral growling of exertion to do so until she staggered up onto both feet. Those red eyes of hers almost faded back to normal before reigniting with a feint layer of what looked like almost flame? So small and compact that it just made her eyes look red. She could barely see, as small plumes of flame poofed from between the cracks in her closed fist, her ears and even a faint flowing flicker as she breathed out from her mouth. She had to give this last attack everything she could. Out of respect to her opponent, even in her rage, she needed to be respectful. She needed to... That was when the massive ball of energy began forming. A boulder sized violet orb of fluffy energy without little to no precise capability. Such an uncontrolled mass of energy pumped into a haphazard shape. Yet as the open upwards facing palm shot up into the air above her began to slowly close into a fist, the orb under an almost invisible giant hand like pressure began to contort until like a blob split into five smaller orbs. Each one settling over a single finger, her hand at the half-way clenched point continued to exert force. At this point she let out a roar to finish the attacks preparation, and as her hand and fingers slammed inwards into a fist, the energy hyper condensed into five tiny orbs about the size of a golf ball levelled over her back most knuckles. Pulling her hand back, she let out another roar as she slammed her fist forward. Five super condensed energy orbs tracing towards Aurora, ducking and weaving through the environment clumsily but effectively enough. Each one eventually circling around trees and foliage to come flying into a proper trajectory to strike if nothing was done about them. Each having a solid wallop to them, at least... If she were on even standing with the other fighter... With her fist held into the air, she felt the last of her energy leave her. With a raspy murmur as she slipped into unconsciousness, halfway through receding into her base form she said, "...One... Day..." Before slamming down on her knees, and toppling over sideways in the crater that'd been made with her.

Aurora turned to walk away from the fallen body of the gray alien, noting where amongst all the destruction around them that she was being left, but as the Arcosian lifted into the air to make her way towards the Saiyan she noted two things of almost equal importance. The first was the fact that the Saiyan? Completely gone. no longer being tracked by the scouter somehow, it was was if he had vanished into thin air. For a moment Aurora considered simply burning down the forest around her to lure the Saiyan out, but she was hesitant even at the very idea of it. The natural places of planet Earth wee beautiful, and one of her few solaces against everything that was happening around her. To simply burn this forest down... It was a close to anathema she believed she could get, as she quickly tossed the idea aside and decided to try and find a new solution. Unfortunately for her, however, before she oculd think up an idea better than wanton destruction her scouter began to ping her once more and she realised that the grey alien she had downed? They were not down. Instead, as she turned around to look at the grey alien, she saw that they had stood up and were looking directly at her.
Safe's eyes were red, and even as Aurora approached to end the fight, its arm shot up towards... towards a rather large ball of energy that had manifested and Aurora had somehow missed. Speeding up as she approached Safe, Aurora was barely metres away before the orb split and landed upon each finger of the hand of the grey alien and she stared towards Aurora, before clenching her fist. The energy flooded from the grey Alien and through the sky, even as Aurora twisted in the air to try and avoid it. Yet a single one managed to clip her on the way past, and from there it was over. The energy slammed into her body as the Arcosian was sent flying to the ground besides where Safe had fallen unconscious and reverted, Aurora's body smoking from the power of the ki and the impacts she had felt. Her bio armour was blackened and cracked and even as she began to drink down once more, the restraints and inner chains looping over her body's power, she hissed in pain. Scorch marks ran along her sides, but they were so debilitating that she couldn't rise.
Sitting up, looks over towards where the unconcious body of the grey alien lay. A part of her raged at the beast for getting in between her and the Saiyan, but the larger part... it had seen something in the eyes of the alien, just before she had fallen back to the ground. A feeling Aurora herself knew all too well. The powerlessness, the anger and rage at being tossed around as if they were nothing. Just the fact that Aurora realised that she had done it to her was enough to motivate the Arcosian to stand up. Wobbly on her legs, she walks over towards the somewhat larger woman and looks down. A frown marred her face, before she bends down and easily picks up the unconscious alien. She could fix things, and explain what... why she had acted like that. even had a medical bay, which is where she was headed now. Her feet lifted off the ground, carrying Safe in her arms bridal style, and Aurora made her way north.
