45,000 [SUPPRESSED] PL His targets, a gang of bandits, were supposed to be meeting up at an abandoned gas station between South City and a neighboring town. The perfect location for unsavory and vile individuals to conduct business away from prying eyes. They'd probably held meetings there hundreds of times already without running into any kind of trouble. But that had been before they'd made enemies out of the wrong person, someone with enough capital to hire a powerful mercenary.
He was honestly surprised with how ill-prepared they'd been for any type of retaliation. He'd thought it was common sense that if you were going to make a job out of pissing people off, that you at least expected some of them to fight back. These genius had all been sitting around relaxing without a care when Scallio made his entrance. A blast of energy from his palm sent the gas station door flying off its hinges. The door shot forward and flattened one of the bandit's against the wall behind him in a comical display.
Two of the bandits quickly sprang into action, they charged Scallio, one with a metal bar and the other with a knife. The mercenary didn't bother to move, his expression neutral as the bat slammed into his face and bent backward. The knife followed shortly after but it was just as ineffective, shattering to pieces as the tip attempted to pierce his armor. "Nice try but none of that's going to hurt me." he was bored, even holding himself back like he was these bozos didn't stand a chance.
Placing his hand against the bat bandit's chest Scallio shot a beam of ki through his torso. Carried upward by the beam, the bandit's body slammed into ceiling causing it to crack and the gas station roof to shake. Before the corpse even had a chance to hit the floor Scallio had already moved onto the next bandit. His hand clutched onto his face tightly and he spun, flinging him out the gas station and onto the highway outside.
He'd meant for it to kill but the bandit's pleas for help made it clear he hadn't.
"Help, somebody help us! We're being attacked by the Saiyans!"

Today was proving to be a pretty boring day for Lao. He was trekking towards South City at what seemed like a snail's pace- he could have flown, but he had decided he needed the exercise. So he was running it, instead. The cloud of dust he left behind stretched far into the sky as his feet pounded the dusty road, and Lao had to admit the feeling of running down the highway at breakneck speed was at least a little bit fun. That is, until he noticed somebody in the road, and ate shit in his scramble to avoid running them over. Even scraping across the hot asphalt at the speeds he was, Lao's tough body prevented him from coming to any serious harm. His mood, however, was most definitely shot. Stomping angrily over to the prostrate form in the middle of the road, he shouted "Hey! What's the big deal, laying in the middle of the road like that! You coulda caused an accident, or somethin', dickhead!" only stopping his rant when he noticed that the man was covered in blood and apparently screaming for help. Whoops. As the injured man grabbed desperately at Lao's gi pants and pleaded for help, Lao couldn't help but make out the words "Saiyan" and "attacking" in between all the incomprehensible blubbering. Lao didn't really have any reason to help out this thuggish-looking man... but he couldn't resist the urge to at least check it out. There was a saiyan! Saiyans were always interesting people to talk to. With these justifications in mind, Lao strode towards the run-down building to seek out these 'attacking saiyans'.
Entering the dim and musty building, Lao was struck by the scene of destruction he was confronted with. The place was in shambles, the door blown off its hinges, and the remains of a battle were strewn all about the place, bodies bearing mortal wounds thrown carelessly about the building like rag-dolls. In the center of the room stood what Lao assumed was the main attraction, a tall, gruff-looking gentleman with a very punk haircut and- most tellingly- a tail swishing about behind his back. There was no doubt about it, this was definitely a Saiyan. As he entered the scene, Lao whistled in awe at what he'd seen. "Yeesh, you really did a number on these lowlifes, didn't ya?" Turning to the door of the building, which appeared to be embedded into the wall along with the crushed form of a person, Lao poked a protruding hand to check if the poor guy was, in fact, deceased. He definitely was. Turning just his head back towards the mysterious Saiyan, he asked "Didja really have to crush him with the door? You don't know the meanin' of the word 'restraint', do ya?"

45,000 [SUPPRESSED] PL The battle, which felt like an insult to the word, had been over quicker than Scallio expected it to be. He knew that the thugs weren't a real threat but he had at least expected for them to put up more of a fight. A sigh passed his lips and he bent down over the body of the gangs still breathing but unconscious leader. If it had been up to Scallio he'd have just killed him with the rest of his men. It was a fate that Scallio was sure the gang leader would have prefered but unfortunately it wasn't up to him. The mercenary flung the man over his shoulder and stood, turning around just in time to watch Lao waltz into the gas station.
Scallio groaned as he looked upon the disheveled appearance of the new arrival. He examined him closely, dirty brown gi, a face that was in desperate need of a shave, hair that probably hadn't been washed in ages. If Scallio hadn't recognized Lao as a martial artist, he'd have assumed he was nothing more than homeless vagrant who'd gotten curious. "Pretty brave of you not to turn and run after seeing all of this." he sighed, "But I don't really have time for chit-chat. I've got to delivery to make." the body flung over Scallio's shoulder moaned. "So either go away and pretend you never walked in here or..." Scallio nodded toward recently crushed bandit, "you can join everyone else."

Lao was a little put off by the Saiyan's gruff demeanor. Sure, this was more or less what he had expected from somebody who'd just roll up and massacre a shack full of bandits, but Lao had hoped that the Saiyan would be in a more conversational mood. He seemed like an interesting fella. It looked like Lao would have to push things, or the saiyan would just leave, and he wouldn't learn a thing. He couldn't let a strong person like this leave without at least getting a glimpse of their moves. "Aww c'mon chief, don't be like that!" It was said that saiyans only understood battle. He had only met a couple so far, but they sure did seem to like to scrap. Lao decided that he'd try to appeal to this side of his new friend. "Ya can't just wreck up the place like that and then leave without giving me a taste! Yer strong, I can feel it. Why not humor me a while?"
Lao would take up his loose stance, sliding his lead foot forward and raising his arms up in front of him. With his stance properly taken, he allowed his ki to envelop his body, surrounding him with a wispy white aura and signalling that he was ready to fight. Lao elected not to take the first move. He wouldn't force this saiyan into a fight he didn't want, if he was determined to leave then Lao wouldn't stop him. But Lao, with the beginnings of a grin on his face, really hoped the saiyan would take him up on his offer. He had gotten a taste of saiyan martial arts earlier with Auber, but he was left hungry for more. "Pretty please?"

55,000 [SUPPRESSED] PL Scallio wasn't surprised in the slightest that the stranger refused to step away, he'd come to expect Earthlings to make decisions that were opposite of what he'd like them to do. The whole planet just seemed to be out to make his life more difficult than it needed to be. Scallio frowned, "Of course." he let the bandit leader drop from his shoulder with a groan. The man's body hit the ground with a loud and audible thud. "Why do you Earthlings always have to get in the way? You just can't seem to help but involve yourselfs in things that don't concern you in the slightest." Scallio's frustration was written all over his face. Angry eyes glared at Lao, who just had taken to an offensive stance and shrouded himself in a spectral aura of white ki. It was a good thing for Scallio that the vagabond had chosen to make a display of channeling his energy. If Lao hadn't, Scallio would have gone into the fight assuming that the vagrant had been on the same level as the bandits he'd just taken care of.
The mercenary eyed the martial artist cautiously, now slightly interested in what kind of challenge the warrior might be able to provide. His being curious didn't change Scallio's temperament, however, he was still frustrated and angry with the Earthling's interference. Scallio was tempted to just blast him and be done with it but that would just be boring. He imagined that it be far more interesting if he prolonged the experience. Really hammered home how stupid of a choice Lao had made before leaving him clinging to life. "Remember that I gave you a chance to walk away." he said sternly before tapping into a portion of his full-power and pumping it through his body.
Orange energy erupted violently around him, shrouding the Saiyan's form in an aura of power that caused the cement beneath his feet to crack and splinter. The explosion of power was all Scallio did to ready himself, forgoing any type of martial stance in favor of a swift and sudden strike. In the blink of an eye Scallio moved from in front of Lao to behind him, the mercenary's hand already on the move to grab the back of Lao's head and slam him into the ground face first. If successful, Scallio would drag the martial artist's face along the ground as he dashed forward several feet, ending his assault by attempting to fling Lao outside through the gas station wall.

Lao had made a habit of letting unknown opponents take the first strike, as it usually gave him a good chance to prepare, and a good look at their moves while he was at it. This time, however, it had turned out to be a mistake. In an explosion of movement, the saiyan warrior somehow got behind Lao and grabbed him roughly by the head, slamming him face-first into the pavement and flinging him out towards the wall. Lao was more surprised than injured though, and rather than plowing through the wall, managed to kill his momentum and hit the wall feet-first. With a grunt, Lao kicked off of the wall, propelling him towards the saiyan at great speed. Lao didn't bother to turn it into a flying punch or kick or anything fancy, preferring to simply slam into his opponent's gut head-first with all his weight and momentum. As he sped towards the saiyan, a surge of ki burst from Lao's body and propelled him even further, turning him into a human cannonball. If it didn't hit Scallio, it would certainly send Lao rocketing straight through the wall on the other side of the building.
When his maneuver was resolved, whether it ended in success or failure, Lao would leap to his feet and perform a quick martial arts kata, as his ki swirled around him and coalesced into a somewhat more solid-looking form. "YEAAHHH! Now that's what I'm talkin' about! Right to business, I like that. Let's go, saiyan!" he'd shout, suddenly full of energy after their opening scuffle. Lao hadn't been this pumped since he fought Polarus! He was really looking forward to the fight to come, although the intrepid human warrior had no idea who he was actually fighting, or their true power... but that didn't matter to Lao at all right now! He had somebody strong to fight, and that was all he really needed to think about.

65,000 [SUPPRESSED] PL Scallio grinned, "Not bad." he muttered, impressed by the Earthling's swift reaction to his surprise attack. Lao's counter attack failed to similarly impress, Scallio had seen it coming the moment Lao's feet had touched the wall. Not that it had been particularly hard read to make in the first place. Truthfully, it was the speed of the strike that had the potential to be an issue. It would have made dodging difficult, if that had been Scallio's intent at least. He was going to take the blow head-on, concentrating his energy into his gut just as Lao's head slammed into it. Small cracks formed along the surface of his armor and he was pushed back a few inches from collision but otherwise he suffered no serious damage.
"But not good enough." Scallio said with smug and confident grin. He hoped that wasn't all Lao had to offer, because if it was then this was going to be over quicker than Scallio thought. "No, you have more tricks up your sleeve don't you?." he thought, eying the layer of ki that had formed around the martial artists like a shell. What was the purpose of it? An attack or barrier perhaps? He'd just have to hit him with something stronger than fist or a headbutt and find out.
His eyes widened and Scallio let out a yell, an explosive burst of energy erupting forth from his body. The orange energy coiled around the Saiyan like a twister and he reached inside himself. He dug deep and latched onto the beast within forming a connection with the slumbering Oozaru and pulled forth its power. The rapidly spinning energy responded, it's shape solidifying into a terrifying spectral Oozaru that layered itself overtop Scallio like armor. A wild and ferocious expression overtook the Saiyan's face and his formly black eyes turned a bright shade of crimson. Scallio glared at Lao, the bloodlust in his eyes saying more than words ever could. He charged forward his right arm extended and overflowing with power as he attempted to clothesline Lao. If successful the resulting explosion and concussive force would ideally send the Earthling rocketing backward and cause the gas station to start collapsing around them.

Lao was still a little concussed from his impact with the surprisingly sturdy saiyan's armored torso- but he wasn't so addled that he couldn't see that Scallio was preparing a seriously dangerous attack. The whole room seemed to take on an air of bloodlust as the saiyan's flaring ki sent all the small, loose objects in the room flying. Lao should have been afraid- or at least worried about his own safety- but he couldn't suppress a wide, toothy grin. As his opponent's power grew, he only found himself getting yet more excited. But there was no time to think about it, he had an attack to deal with! Think, what kind of defense do I have against something like that? To be honest, the answer was 'none at all.' Then, that left only one option... attack!
Steeling himself, Lao set his feet apart and let his own ki flare out of his body, strengthening his barrier of fighting spirit. He couldn't match the saiyan's attack for power... so he'd have to put enough spirit into this blow to cancel it out! He wasn't sure he was up to it, but it was worth a shot. As Scallio launched into his devestating lariat, Lao reciprocated with a lariat of his own, kicking off at speed to meet the saiyan halfway through his charge! As their arms collided together, the clash sent shockwaves of energy cascading throughout the building, prying up floorboards and sending old, crumbling walls tumbling down, until the two fighters were standing in nothing but ruins where a gas station used to be. Lao's barrier of spirit struggled against the sheer destructive power of the saiyan, and for a while, it held... but it wasn't to be, and eventually Scallio's attack began to win out, cracks spreading throughout Lao's shield of energy before shattering entirely, and sending Lao skidding back ten or more feet, his toes scraping the ground and leaving deep gouges in the earth as they struggled to stop his backwards momentum. He had managed to mitigate most of the damage, but Scallio definitely had an edge. Lao would need to get back on the offensive if he was gonna keep this fight going.
Finally stopping his slide backwards, Lao leapt into the air and fired a pair of ki beams from his outstretched palms directly at the saiyan, hopefully creating an opening for Lao to close in and go back on the attack.

100,000 [SUPPRESSED] PL The Earthlings willingness to meet his attack head-on was unexpected but the mercenary didn't waiver in his assault. He instead found himself smirking as their two lariats clashed against one another. The tremendous shockwave that accompanied their clash caused the building to slowly collapse around them. Scallio's face strained slightly as he fought against Lao's reinforced barrier. Much to the Saiyan's surprise he found himself being pushed backward by the martial artist but he quickly managed to regain the advantage. Scallio's energy surged and the Oozaru that surrounded him let out a mighty roar and with it Lao's barrier finally shattered.
Scallio watched Lao skidded backward through the gas station ruins, using the brief pause in action as Lao struggled to stop his momentum to calm himself. Despite no longer being present, Scallio could still feel the influence of the Oozaru's power on his body. Wild and feral, the animalistic instincts that came with tapping into the power always lingered for a time after their use. If Scallio wasn't careful it ran the chance of overtaking him and that would spell trouble for more than just Lao. It took him longer than expected to suppress the influence, however, and he wasn't able to react to Lao's attack in time.
Twin beams of ki slammed into Scallio's chest and the impact forced him to take two steps backward. Once again the Saiyan's armor managed to absorb the bulk of the damage, the cracks on it expanded but otherwise the armor remained intact. Dusting his armor off, Scallio chuckled "Very impressive" he said, looking up at the airborne Lao with faint excitement in his eyes. "I wasn't expecting you to last this long, clearly holding myself back wasn't the right thing to do. So what do you say we kick things up a notch?" as he finished speaking Scallio's muscles flexed and his aura surged violently around him.
The Saiyan's power quickly raised from its previous level of 65,000 to an astounding 100,000 in a matter of seconds. The ground beneath the duos feet began to shake uncontrollably and an intense pressure filled the air. Awash in an aura of orange, Scallio took aim not at Lao but the unconscious body of the bandit leader. A stream of pale-orange fire poured out from his palm and engulfed the criminal completely. It was a horrible way to go, being burned alive, and the bandit's screams of agony drove that point home. Scallio kept a cold and callous expression on his face as he burnt the man to a crisp, only stopping the torrent of flame when the man's screams ceased to plague his eardrums. The mercenary had performed the senseless act of violence and cruelty to further motivate his opponent. Scallio wasn't concerned with the contract anymore either, besides, he'd probably saved the bandit from days of torture by killing him now anyway.
"If you don't want to suffer the same fate as that bandit then I suggest you fight to kill." he said, refocusing his attention on the martial artist and flying several feet into the air. Scallio motioned for the Earthling to attack him and dropped his guard completely as he did. Scallio's eagerness to see the full extent of what Lao was capable of was written all over his face.

Lao was astonished to see the saiyan's power rise even more, jumping to nearly twice as strong as himself! Just how strong was he?! Lao was giddy just thinking about it. This fight is gettin' good! So glad I decided ta run to the next town. But, with his current power, Lao wouldn't be able to keep up with the powerful saiyan any longer. It was time to kick things up a notch! When scallio said those magic words, "I suggest you fight to kill." Lao's grin became even more manic-looking, if that were possible. He couldn't contain himself any longer. "Fight ta kill, huh? Ain't never killed anybody before, but just for you friend, I'll give it my best shot! Time to go all out!" With a shout, Lao unleashed every scrap of ki he had been holding in reserve up to this point, overflowing his body with energy and releasing a burning aura of flickering white flames that engulfed his body and even further ruined what little was left of the building they stood in. Lao unleashes his (x3P) Focus! His PL is now 150,000!With startling rapidity, Lao kicked off his new offensive with a simple ki blast aimed directly at Scallio's face, meant more as a distraction than an attack. Almost as soon as the blast left his hand, Lao began to spin rapidly, like a top, and after a few seconds he began to quickly tunnel down into the earth, disappearing into the dusty soil like a human drill. After this, there would be a few moments of silence, as Lao positioned himself beneath the earth to strike, following Scallio's aura to line himself up. Then, with no warning, he would burst from the ground directly behind Scallio, arms grasping wildly for his waist. If his surprise attack went as planned, he would grab Scallio around the belly and heave him into a devastating suplex, slamming his head directly into the hard ground. Then, keeping up the offensive without even stopping to take a breath, Lao would aim a wild axe kick for the prone Saiyan's chest, bringing his heel down into the armor plating almost hard enough to injure himself from the impact. Then, to finish off the combo, he'd leap high into the air and unleash a barrage of ki blasts, saturating the area with dozens of explosive white balls of energy and kicking up a massive cloud of smoke that would obscure everything below. Then, Lao would hang in the air for a moment, chest heaving to catch his breath, and wait for the dust to clear.

350,000 PL [SUPPRESSED] [SSJ] Lao's fiery transformation caused Scallio to raise a brow, an eager smirk on his face as the warmth from the Earthling's white flames washed over him. "So I wasn't the only one holding back power." but it wouldn't be enough to stand against him, of that Scallio was certain. His opponent made the first move, firing off an energy blast that Scallio effortlessly swatted out of the air. The blast flew off to the side and slammed into the ground with an explosion that filled the air with dust and debris. He frowned and caught sight of Lao's hand just before it sank into the ground. Scallio wasn't sure what type of attack the Earthling was trying to pull but he was eager to find out, and he didn't have to wait for long. Just moments after disappearing, Lao shot up from the ground behind him and Scallio felt the man's hands wrap around his stomach. The Saiyan's whole world started to flip upside down as he was heaved backwards and suplexed into the dirt. It would have been a devastating blow, if Scallio hadn't reinforced his back with ki, mitigating the damage he would of taken. He'd left himself open to the axe kick, however, which came down onto his chest with enough force to cause his chest armor to shatter pieces. Scallio grunted from the pain, he was surprised by just how much the kick had hurt. He didn't have too much time to be surprised though as Lao quickly continued his assault. The barrage of ki blasts pelted into the downed Saiyan with little resistance. "Enough!" Scallio released a pulse of ki that forced the energy blast to come to a sudden halt in the air around him. He floated up from the ground and into a standing position with a scowl on his face. He dusted the pieces of armor that remained on his chest onto the ground "That was my father's armor." he glared at Lao, his eyes as sharp as daggers. "Not that I much cared for him but the armor still had some sentimental value." and getting it remade wasn't going to be cheap either. Scallio gritted his teeth "How about I show you my trump card?" it was overkill but he was officially pissed and didn't care anymore. "Time to see if all that training with Kayen has been worth it." he muttered underneath his breath before flexing his muscles and allowing his power to rise once more. The transformation into Super Saiyan required more than just a build up of power, however. Scallio needed anger, he needed the of kind of rage that was overwhelming and easy to lose yourself in. It didn't take him very long to find it. Dark and ominous clouds swirled in the sky accompanied by the distant rumbling of thunder and the crack of lightning as it streaked across the sky. "GRAAAAH!" Scallio roared out at the top of his lungs and a massive crater formed in the ground beneath his floating form. The air filled with a sudden and heavy pressure as the Saiyan's power soared to immense heights. His energy changed from orange to a brilliant gold that flickered violently around him. With an explosive burst of energy, Scallio completed his transformation and reduced the suspended ki spheres into nothingness. Something had gone wrong during the transformation, however, and his body was racked with an immense pain. The same thing had happened when he'd first achieved the form, at the time he'd chalked it up to it simply being because it had been his first time. That clearly hadn't been the case but those were questions for later, right now he needed to focus. He had to make sure he still had some level of control over himself and so far it felt as though he did. The mindless rage he'd felt during his first couple of transformations was absent. Scallio only felt the intense anger and heightened emotions that typically came from the form coursing through him at the moment. "This ends here." with a cold and angry expression Scallio extended his hand and took aim at Lao's left arm. Without wasting a second, the mercenary unleashed a beam of ki from the empty space between his thumb, pointer, and middle finger. Compact but extremely powerful despite it's smaller size, if it landed the attack would reduce the martial artist's arm to ashes.

Lao could only stare on like a deer in headlights as Scallio, evidently unfazed by his onslaught, merely proceeded to get mad about his antique armor and transform in a way Lao had never experienced before. The saiyan's power jumped to ridiculous levels, nearly blinding Lao with the radiance of his energy, before slowly fading back to a more reasonable level. It was then that the reality of the situation dawned on him. The bastard was holding back on me! More than anything else, this revelation just made Lao angry. When Scallio's enormous attack came barreling towards him, Lao could only react with an explosion of his own power, and a single word, shouted to the heavens: "AAASSHOOOLE!" As the beam of ki impacted his brand new barrier of sheer outrage, Lao swatted it aside with a casual-looking wave of his arm. In reality, the effort had nearly snapped his arm in two, and that was with his barrier soaking up most of the damage, but it certainly looked impressive. Lao tried not to think about the fact that his arm probably would have been vaporized if he hadn't defended himself.
Lao's face was twisted into a snarl of disgust. "How dare you hold back on me like that! If you could have done that from the beginning, you should have! What kind of warrior are you?!" Holding back to keep a fight going a little longer was one thing, but this was like an insult. Lao couldn't accept it. "You know what? This is no longer fun. And it was going so well, too." Lao spit on the ground, more blood than saliva, and continued. "What a fuckin' disappointment. I'll be back, saiyan! And then we'll have a real brawl, none of this holding back shit!"
With a swift spin, Lao used his Chikyū Suiei to kick up a cloud of sand and dust, intended to momentarily blind the super saiyan, and then just like that Lao had disappeared once again, tunneling deep into the earth in an attempt to make his escape.

5,000 PL [SUPPRESSED] The surprises never seemed to end with Lao, Scallio had been certain his beam was packed with more power than the Earthling could handle. But he'd been mistaken and with what appeared to be very little effort, Lao had swatted the beam away. The beam curved and exploded as it hit the ground behind the martial artist. An intense heat briefly washed over the pair as the explosion from the attack settled. Mouth ajar with an edgy remark already having formed at the tip of his tongue, Scallio paused upon noticing Lao's face.
Since the battle had started Scallio had yet to see Lao show anything other than excitement or eagerness towards him. So why was he now looking at Scallio with such loathing in his eyes? The mercerny matched Lao's disgusted expression but he quickly found himself staring at the Earthling perplexed. Apparently the reason for his sudden shift in mood was because Scallio had been holding back. "What?" he asked dryly, "Are you fucking serious right now? Surely you're joking because holding back is valid strategy. You were just doing it yourself earlier." but Lao didn't seem to care what Scallio had to say on the matter.
Like a scene from an old cartoon, Scallio listened as Lao adamantly declared he was done with the fight now that it was no longer fun. The Saiyan frowned, an uneasiness forming in his stomach with Lao's vow to return for a rematch. "Okay..." he muttered "See you later I guess?" said Scallio in a questioning tone. Scallio didn't bother to stop Lao as he spun himself into the ground and disappear. If he really wanted to Scallio was sure that he'd be able to hunt the Earthling back down without much of issue. Lucky for Lao then that Scallio didn't care enough to go searching for him.
With a deep breath in and slow but steady exhale out, Scallio canceled his transformation. For a moment he worried he worried that he wouldn't be able to. Powering down from Super Saiyan into base still hadn't gotten any easier for him. And in many ways Scallio considered canceling the form to be more difficult for him than triggering it. Something about the rush of power mixed with the raw adrenaline made turning it off harder than it needed to be. Still, he managed to power himself down, his hair return to normal and the golden energy faded from around him.
"Today was weird." he said and glanced at what had been a run-down gas station until a few minutes ago. It was now nothing more than a mound of rubble in the middle of nowhere Earth. The dead bodies of the thugs Scallio had killed prior to his scuffle with Lao had found themselves scattered around the place because of the brawl. The mercenary frowned, "Oh fuck that's right.
