Kong ((Entelodont, also known as the Terror Pig, was a prehistoric swine that's considered to be the distant relative of the current boar problem in the United States, particularly in Texas.)) The North was having a spot of trouble with pigs, of all things. You'd think it be too cold for bloody giant boars the size of a buss, the Sheriff thought to himself. Hand charging up a ball of sapphire energy before unloading it through the body of a charging swine, he'd never seen them gather in packs before. And while the hellish animals have never been endangered, it was still a problem; they were the exact opposite of a weak species. The'd been stampeding through, probably some issue with all the space pods slamming into the planet, Kail thought. But no, this problem had been happening for years. Too many boars were breeding and there was no real threat to them in the wild besides something rare like a t-rex. They were breeding like rats! The towering beasts were capable of knocking out a hundred babies a year with ease, and they just kept making more! Cybernetic arm cocked up, the boar still squealing and roaring as its razor sharp tusks tried to cleave the Sheriff in a few pieces. Power swelled up before unloading, finishing the pork laden beast in a slump. It's head digging into the ground as it came to a stop right infront of the law man's boots. At least they tasted good, he thought with a grim smile. Shifting aim a little to slow, instead of a blast he had to resort to metal arm grabbing tusk and slamming the boar's head into a handy boulder. Cracking, then shattering it. All that did was make the terminator of an animal's beady red eyes seem all the more angry. Backpedaling, Kail hopped up just enough to hover out of range, landing on the thing's back with enough force to slam it chest to earth. A few more ki blasts to the back of the skull, and the smell of bacon filled the air. The man's stomach rumbled at that, but then again when /isn't/ a Saiyan hungry? Putting the thought of a quick meal aside, the grizzled fighter licked his lips regardless. Every one loves bacon. "I'm a damn law man fighting giant dinosaur pigs. Arcosians and Saiyan Kingdoms running around, some weird disco ball dude killing people. And wild boar dinosaur aged animals tearing through houses and farms." He let a sigh out at that, but a law man's work is never done. These boars were simply massive, semi truck sized meat bulldozers that were tearing up homes, and ate anything they could get their snouts near. Living or not. The current breeding season had just ended last fall, followed by a blessedly quiet few months while mother boars and their litters were deep in caves and tunnels. Then they came out right about now, fully grown, mean, and ready to ruin anything in their path. And boy, did they like to travel in packs. A good wolf pack up here would solve this, Kail thought as he rode the newly killed pig to the ground. Hopping off and dusting his long leather coat off, taking worn and battered wide brimmed hat off his head to wipe a sleeve on forehead. Still plenty of the beasts running around, and he was currently keeping their route away from Central City. The norther towns in the mountains could handle the pigs, but it was the city folk that really had Kail worried. He doubted they knew how to work a gun, let alone aim at a giant boar the apparent size of a trailer home! A couple new squeals and snorts were all that the Sheriff needed to replace his hat and resume charging up his ki. This time sparks and bolts of power, sapphire and violet in hue, lurched up his forearms. Webs of power flickering and crackling on limbs both flesh and metal as he got ready for another wave of no doubt angry swine. "Alright, come on you big ugly boars. We'll be able to fill every soup kitchen in Central at this rate." And that was exactly where about a hundred tonnes of meat went every time it happened. A few big ass boars in every city, and one for himself. After all, he did all the work, and a couple of those boars in his giant meat locker basement was a reward he deserved!

Vegia was still getting used to the incredible power that had come to her since her near-death experience. It seemed like it was false, somehow; a dream. She half expected that every time she called up that power, it’d prove to be some kind of grand cosmic joke; a mistake that would be rectified just at the point she needed it the most.
When she saw the massive rush of oversized boars, though, she knew that she had to act. Aside from the threat they posed to the earthlings, the boars were a valuable commodity. There was enough meat there to feed all the refugees for quite some time! Plus, she’d never met a Saiyan who complained about haunches of meat. It seemed almost too good to be true.
When she saw a familiar warrior taking on the animals, she just knew she had to get involved.
“Good day, Sherrif.”
The teenager’s voice came from high above, and she clasped her hand tight as she looked down at the rushing animals.
“It looks like you’ve got a pig problem. I hope you don’t mind if I lend a hand?”
She wasn’t actually asking the question, though. From her vantage point, she could see that there was only so much that any one person could do in a reasonable amount of time, if they were going to limit the collateral damage.
Back on Vegeta, it wasn’t unusual for the Royal Guard to act as escorts as spoiled nobles went hunting for Saibamen; their preferred prey. Such expeditions were boring for the Guard, as they were strictly limited to defending their spoiled charges in the event that the Saibamen got lucky and might actually pose a threat to the nobles. She had never been permitted to take part in the great hunts herself.
Her fist clenched, and she tried to summon up that power of hers. For the first time since her arrival here, she wasn’t thinking about the horrors of the past; she wasn’t fretting at the prospect of the future, or trying to put on a brave face. What she saw was a threat that needed to be dealt with, and a simple means of doing just that.
“NOVA CANNON!”
Her hand clasped tight to her elbow, and this time, she opened her palm as the power answered her call. When it erupted out of her outstretched hand, it was as an enormous wave of power – one which carved a deep furrow into the earth, blasting a curved ditch into the ground wide enough and deep enough that the irritating animals couldn’t simply hop over it.
She couldn’t completely surround them, but she could mark out the far border of their movement, herding them away from more people and damage, trying to clump them together for Kail and the technique he seemed to be in the process of readying against them.
It wasn’t just dumb luck, or a mistake, it seemed. She really was… much, much stronger than she used to be.

Damn, that girl just keeps getting stronger. The Sheriff made a mental note of that, his fighting grin spreading. Good, he was already by and far past the other members of the Kingdom he'd met. Wonder if my daughter would've been that strong, brief voice added to his mind. Shaking it off, the grizzled fighter flashed her a one handed salute, two fingers to forehead as his opposite arm charged. Bolts of lightning going from minor sparks and cracks to a major electrical storm wrapping around cybernetic limb. "Well aren't you just the sight of a solar wind! Is that little Vegia tossin' 'round fire like a King? I always knew ya'd be destined for greatness!" Far from discouraged, seeing a friend grow so strong so quick did nothing but rev Kail's engine. No time to be gettin' showed up by a little elite either! The crackling grew, faster and harsher as seconds ticked away. Bolts of sapphire and amethyst power coursing along his limb like a gauntlet crafted by Zeus. The boars, now stuck in the pen with the big dog so to speak, turning just in time to let The Sheriff unload one of his favorites.
Valkyrie Pulse was a combination of ki and technology, the inner workings of his cybernetic overclocking until nothing but raw lightning was spat out. Thin lines of power, dangerous enough, but where they struck there was no sign of damage but burn marks the size of a finger. Sparking along a veritable lightning storm until it sounded like the entire world was in a storm cloud. The rumble of thunder was a side effect, but still boomed along the forest to make birds a mile away flee in great flocks. The boars hides shivered, the bristly hairs along them standing up for a brief moment. Not a sound was heard after the attack, the sudden absence of the loud attack making the silence all the more noticeable. Then as one, they slammed into the ground, hearts exploded from the high voltage move, leaving the Sheriff to use his scarlet scarf to mop some sweat off his brow. I really need to work out more if Vegia can do shit like that on the drop of a hat, he thought to himself. Waving up at the teen in the sky. "Howdy Veg! Glad to see you runnin' around, when the hell havock wreckin' tower did you get so strong?"
He started walking to close the gap, after dropping the Pulse it always left him tired if it wasn't during a fight. Adrenaline worked great on Saiyans, just like it did anything else that had it! Feel like a young'un again when fighting, he grinned up at his friend. "Get ya scrawny ass down here so Ol' Kail can steal yer trainin' regiment? Get your ass kicked didn't ya!" His laugh was almost as loud as the Valkyrie Pulse. "Cause that'll do it! Why, one time my wife got near killed by a Namekian, ended up stronger then m-" The talk was interrupted, part by memory, part by distant sound. It was a dull rumble, building up rapidly, much like an avalanche. Just with less tempo and a lot more mean. Trees were felled, wild life that hadn't already did it was suddenly fleeing. The Sheriff turning to cast a baleful eye on the incoming....something.
"What in the ever loving fu-" The Sheriff was big for a Saiyan, in fact he'd never met one taller then him. But the tusk was easily the size of a tree, slamming into him with enough force to send him into a rock face with enough impact to launch him through it in an explosion of powder and rock dust. This wasn't a regular Boar. It's smaller cousins would have stood up to it's kneecaps, and unlike their dark leather hide, this beast had odd, violet and white plates.
"Ah hell, it ate an Arcosian." Kail mumbled to itself, the fact of the matter had him mentally laughing that some dumb Changeling had become pig food, otherwise this was terrifying. "Yo Veg! Don't think you know this, but these Entelodonts seem to have gotten into somethin' they shouldn't!" The massive, alien swine snorted. Swinging tusks and a snout that would've made an elephant look like a pansy. Angry red eyes, dumb and vicious, zeroing in on the Sheriff as he recovered his wits in a pile of broken rock. Swinging himself back onto his feet, the Sheriff brace just in time to catch the thing's tusks, dragging him backwards and leaving two neat furrows where his boots were planted. Making a rough, twisting motion of arms and spine, the veteran slammed the snout into the ground. Both palms raised, the spiral opening in cybernetic palm swaying open to blast bright blue ki bolts into the beast's face.
Really, all it did was piss it off. Snorting and shoving it's head left and right, it send the Saiyan up. Letting him get control of himself as he floated near the other monkey tailed fighter.
"Huh. Arcosian Boar. If anyone asks, I'm saying this is yer fault." He stated dryly. He figured she knew exactly what his own mind did, that thing needed to be put down and fast. Giving a shrug at life and it's mysteries, and it's miseries, the Sheriff slammed back down onto the monster boar. Boots landing on it's thick hide, the monster squealing and snorting in rage as it bucked and bounced. The Sheriff, for his part, held on with a wild grin, hat in one hand, the other holding onto it's arm sized hairs like a saddle.
//Yes, I did make an alien dinosaur boar. Because I can.

The loud sounds of his stomach grumping echoed through the darkness of the forest. His right hand firmly pressed on the center of his stomach. A bush rustling to the right of him causes him to suddenly raise his guard. Staring in the bushes direction, the rustling continued. As the shadowy figure in the shape of a man emerged from the brush, Kong sent a strong right jab forward aimed for its jaw. Only stopping inches away to what now seemed to be a feeble old man, an injured one at that.
"Oh oh my young man *huff *you startled me. I thought you were one of them." The old man was gripping the part of his chest that held his heart, while his other hand rested against a nearby tree.. "One of what? Are you okay old man?" Kong asked a bit more worried than he should be, he motioned over towards him and rested his hand on the old man's shoulder, for support.
"I'll..i'll be fine. Just need a second to rest." Slumping down onto the ground, he finally gathered the strength to look up at Kong once more. "You don't look like you're from around here." "Yeah it's because I'm not. Just passing through." Kong rested his back up against the tree. " What has you up here old man? You know it's too dangerous to be wandering out here alone." "I could say the same about you, whippersnapper. But I'll have you know that I'm an animal researcher." Licking his chapped lips, he motioned up towards Kong. " You wouldn't by any chance have any water would you?" Kong sighed and reached for his backpack, unzipping the top portion before bringing out his flask.
"Yeah I do, but don't drink al-" Kong was interrupted by the sounds of his flask's top being through on the ground. The old man was going to work drinking his water, in fact, he barely left any for Kong in the first place. "Hey!" The old man stopped and let loose a heavy exhale. "That's the good stuff, thank you, young man. " Kong reached and took his flask, feeling how light it felt brought sadness to his heart. "Don't..mention it."
"Now." The old man grunted as he came to a stand. "I'm here because there were rumors of a new breed of boar roaming the lands. As a researcher, I came to study it. But..I didn't account for how hostile they would be and I barely made it out alive. With that being said I'm going to get out of here, and I advise you to do the same." Kong's stomach began to growl. "If it's such a problem I'll take it off your hands. I'm sure a boar tastes great." He forced a tiny grin at the thought of how many boars he would manage to eat, it was a bit exciting.
"You don't actually think you can kill it can you? I know you're young but there's no way you can handle something like that. I would really advise you turning back now. I know i'm getting the heck outta here. "He began walking in the opposite direction. "Thanks again for the water. " Waving back without even turning around.
"Leaving in such a hurry before of a boar? How scary could it be?" He felt two larger energy sources nearby and a smaller one, however pinpointing what they were exactly was too difficult. "Wonder if that's it..I can kinda see why the old man left in a hurry. " Having a sharp turning in his stomach, Kong ventured forward. Walking behind a tree that leads into a large opening, where he saw this one girl and this other guy, the sources of the huge energy levels, but his eyes soon fell to the boar. He stayed where he was, watching from the shadows a bit. Not sure how exactly to approach the situation, from the looks of it, they were just playing with it.

Scrawny? Tch…
“Careful, old man, or I might just start to go off you!”
Vegia was joking, mostly. She’d been called a lot worse than scrawny in her time. Besides, after throwing out that Nova Cannon, she was starting to feel a bit tired. Yes, she was a lot stronger than she was when they last sparred, but she had her limits as well. Such a huge expenditure of energy was still draining for her – and it seemed that it wasn’t enough to scare off the most dangerous pig in the universe.
Some might wonder why Kail was down on the ground, fighting the boars hand to hand when – presumably – they couldn’t fight back if they kept to the air. Vegia understood, though. This was part of the thrill as a Saiyan; if the enemy couldn’t fight back, it wasn’t an honourable fight at all, and it’d injure his Saiyan pride if he was forced to retreat and finish the fight in a cowardly fashion.
She never really saw it that way, herself. She was used to long-range fighting as her preferred mode of combat. But, she’d seen the attitude commonly enough in her brothers.
The sheer size and scale of the boar that came in next was impressive on its own. The white and purple patches were just bizarre.
“I’m pretty sure pigs don’t work that way.” She said at the idea that the boar had just, eaten, an Arcosian and then taken on its power. She wasn’t an expert in biology by any means, but if all you had to do to gain their power was eat an Arcosian, she was pretty sure that the old Saiyans would have devoured that race hundreds of years ago.
“Try and keep it occupied, Kail, I’ll back you up when my energy’s recovered!”
It wasn’t the best plan, but it was the only plan she could think of. Something that big and dangerous would be a royal pain to deal with, and she didn’t have the power to do so right now. She needed him to buy her a moment or two.
Both hands clenched into fists by her sides, and the girl began to power up. She’d been nervous about doing this before, for fear that the World Trade Fleet or their allies would locate her based on the energy signature. But, right here, right now, she didn’t have time to worry about potential problems; she had to deal with the problem right in front of her face.
“HYAAAAAAAAAAAAH!”
Brilliant sapphire energy burned around the girl as she drew deep on the well of power inside herself, the ki flaring like a bonfire as she tested these new limits of hers. It was invigorating! She felt invincible! But, she still didn’t have enough to be sure she could finish this off…
The many scattering smaller boars, corralled by the earlier attack, stopped in their wild stampede and stared with dim porcine curiosity; the larger one, though, didn’t even seem to notice.

"Oh, just try and distract it. Lovin' the plan. Distract the giant boar the size of a city block, no big deal. I'll just stay up in the air and charge." The Sheriff grumbled, still firmly mounted on bucking beast. Might be taking the entire cowboy thing one too far here, he thought to himself. Do most law men have to worry about this sort of thing? "Alright, better not hit me with whatever yer doin'!" The man hopped up, then brought both work boots down on the swine's back with enough force to near buckle it's back legs into the earth. Skidding down the side of it, the Saiyan elder was quick to get under it. Side stepping flashing tusks and hooves, he was safe as one could be this close to a giant pig. Raising fist in a brutal uppercut that had all the strength of his lower body raising up to add the momentum to the punch. Damn near broke the sound barrier with that one, he thought rather smugly.
The swine, however was not happy. Deciding the best course to get rid of the man was to simply squish him, body slammed down. Barely caught by two hands in time to prevent Kail turning into Kail jelly. Broad shoulders slamming against underside, the Sheriff fell to one knee. A crater from impact forming around him as he held the alien hog up. "Alright, you want a target Vegia? I got you one right here." He slowly but surely moved his way out from under the hog, shoulders dragging against unpleasant smelling belly before popping out with a gasp of breath. Air not tainted was rather delicious now that it wasn't giant pig smelling. Dodging another swipe of razor sharp tusks that left deep furrows in the ground, the fighter was swift to move to the back of the pig. A few dashs and rolls needed to avoid being skewered, crushed, or similar style killed. He'd never live it down if he was killed by a giant boar, alien or not. Things like that just don't happen to a a Saiyan.
He could feel Vegia charging up, letting a low whistle out as he locked his hands around the wirey tail of the boar. "Damn, she's gettin' pretty damn tough. Paint my ass red and call me a wagon, she'd kick all our asses. That includes you, gross bacon monster." Lil Vegia was all grown up, still scrawny though. Girl needed a steak or two. "Oh well, who am I to judge? Why am I asking you this, you're just a dumb pig." He was thinking out loud again, too much time alone in the mountains will do that to a man. Muscles tensed, and he started to spin. First the hog just ground against the earth, squealing and huffing in annoyance. The Sheriff had to make some quick moves to avoid being kicked by hooves the size of a car. Furrow in earth showed the pig's trail, but the Sheriff was speeding up. Soon legs left the ground, the hog raising slowly but surely.
It had taken effort to get it this far, but Kail wasn't done yet. Around and around the big boar went, before with a grunt of effort he let go. Sending the thing flying and slamming right through the same stone he himself had a few minutes ago. Setting hands on his knees to catch his breath. "Damn. I need to train more, shit was heavy." He spat on the rock dust coated ground. He didn't have illusions that had killed the bloody thing, boar skulls were to thick on the normal ones to be knocked out that easy. Least it baught the yelling girl some time. Why did everyone yell when they charge? Maybe it helps, questions for later, his mind raced.
The sound of angry bacon and the rattle of stone was audible before the actual sight of the swine shoving its way back from the crater it'd just been so kindly thrown into and/or made via high impact violence. "Are you done charging yet or do I have to get beat up again?" The Sheriff asked, rolling his neck so the crack of bone was audible, rolling shoulders to get ready for no doubt more angry boar muscle. The thing snorting and lowering its snout, pawing the earth to prepare for another heavy set charge.

He continued to stay hunkered down beside the tree, at first in bewilderment but that soon eased away. After all this alien stuff that's been going on with earth lately, more and more strong people are starting to appear from the works. Coming left and right, it was no surprise that these two were the same. The readings he was picking up from the girl that looked like she could be younger than Kong, and this other guy who look like he came from a western movie. But that didn't take away from the powerful energy signature he was picking up from the boar, but those two were smacking it around like it was nothing. In fact, it looked like they were just playing with em.
"There power is unbelievable, it's like they are not even human." Kong murmured underneath his breath while staring at the boar. One thing was certain, it didn't look like it was from around here, and it sure was ugly. He flashed back to the old man.
"A new species of boar have appeared in the area, and i'm here to study it."
From the looks of it. It was definitely not any type of normal bull that Kong has seen. "Could be an alien." He thought to himself, it was better than any other idea he had, and these two? Some sort of animal collectors? He was trying to put the pieces of the puzzle together. But a lot of things caused him to not want to get involved. What if these two weren't friendly, it would defiantly be bad on his part. Did he want to risk it?
It seems like these two couldn't sense energy, either that or they were just ignoring him. "Let's get a closer look." He murmured once more, sliding into a nearby bush, then an even larger boulder. "This should be good enough."
His eyes suddenly widened, as he began to feel a large amount of energy building up, but from who? Shifting his attention over towards Vegia. "S-so much power..it's unbelievable." It was unlike anything he's ever felt, he turned to get away from the area, whatever was going to happen was going to be big. But his eyes looked down towards the ground, as a tiny shadow began to increase in size drastically over his position.
He looked up and saw this tiny dot that grew to a size of a truck in seconds. It was the boar! Jumping from his post, the boar landed where he once stood, creating quite the crater with Kong laid out on the side.
A few seconds past before Kong could be seen coming to a stand, and dusting himself off. "Hey watch where you're throwing that!" He yelled angrily towards the cowboy. "Someone is gonna get hurt!"
