Seize the Day (Private)

"I feel a strong power... approaching," the Jackal Demon thought to himself in the recluse of his thoughts, as he woke from his slumber. He had been taking a rather peaceful nap on the top of this rock formation, his ki undetectable due to his sleep. Someone was training on the plains below him, enhancing their skills. Someone strong. "Perhaps the answer to my plight has revealed themselves... time to..test my mettle... heheheh....," he muttered to himself with a light, vibrant chuckle. The Jackal Demon was six-feet-tall and of medium build, as he had been fighting nearly throughout all of his blimp of an existence. He had a brown pigment to his skin that many confused for fur, along with vibrant red eyes. he wore yellow plated armor over his legs (going from his calves to his knees), along with bracers on his forearms to his wrists and a torso plate that also covered his head. He also wore shorts and a belt. Implanted into the armor was special jewels that increased the weight of the armor for his training with magic.   

It was an under statement to suggest Heizen stood out among the masses, but he cared relatively little. 

The Jackal Demon enjoyed the show as he watched the boy play with his ball, training furiously as a real warrior should. The boy would probably enjoy a more challenging sparring partner however, and so he leapt off the platform after growing bored watching. Landing on the ground with a crashing thud; Heizen looked into Suusao's eyes with a dry smile. "Hello young warrior... I have come seeking entertainment. Do you care for a challenge?" he asked confidently, his low and raspy tone serving as intimidating to most. Charging his ki inside as excitement rushed through him - the Jackal put up his fists. 

How strong would this mortal prove, he wondered?

Heizen listened to the boy's introduction. He seemed rather polite for a mortal, considering his company was a demon. Perhaps he did not know who he was addressing (or rather- what he was addressing). Heizen let out an audible chuckle at the man's introduction though, once the words Namek reached his ears. "You look a little too pale to be a Namekian...and short for that matter," he commented. It was obvious he was part of some other race instead. Perhaps he was a Saiyan - given the rather enthusiastic way he looked athe Jackal Demon.

As per the question the boy asked - Heizen didn't feel like disclosing that information. People usually got a little weird when the "Demon" moniker came up. It appeared the people of this realm either hated or feared Demons (the difference between the two was based off how strong you were in comparison to them). Heizen instead just kept up his grin. "Beat me in our duel and I might," he said rather coyly. The young Jackal Demon made a stance: raising his arms bent up to the level of his torso as he tightened his fists together, his left leg faced forward with the right one back, and his knees lightly bent. He was ready. With his dark blue ki aura shimmering vibrantly, dust began to raise itself from the ground along with small fragments of rock from the pressure of his majesty. 

Heizen charged at Suusao at full speed - attempting to strike with a left-handed hook punch swinging straight for his face. It was time to see just how well he could dodge. He hoped this young warrior would be worth his time.

Punching Suusao for 616 PL/12337

Heizen had rushed at the boy with all of his speed and power - planning to blitz the boy and score a powerful attack on the lad's face. He had swung with plenty of might, but it seemed to come up empty against this lad. The lad raised his forearm in sync for a perfect block of the Jackal Demon's fierce strength (showcasing the lad's incredible fighting prowess). He definitely proved himself to be more formidable than Heizen had first pegged him to be. "A sparrow can fly past a single lightning bolt, but it cannot evade a storm...," he calmed himself in the recluse of his mind. The kid had gotten past but a single attack. Eventually he had to slip up. And when he did he would know Heizen's power. He had come so far- and he still had reserves of untapped power at his beck and call. The boy was swift in his disengaged maneuver- flying away from Heizen as if to taunt him to follow. The boy made no counter-attack or any type of maneuver to fight back. It was as if he was toying with the demon (intentionally trying to get him angry). To most demons that strategy would be perfect and quite clever indeed. But Heizen was not the normal demon. His rage did not make him sloppy, nor did it make him lose focus in a battle. 

It merely enhanced his focus, and gave him a drive to crush his contenders into the dirt. "And you talk big for such a little fellow," he chimed in retort. He was still fairly composed and calm, but that didn't mean he couldn't partake in some of the fun himself. Taunting Suusao back might even the psychological playing field, and Heizen sure wasn't going to miss out on that opportunity. Feeling the midnight blue aura encase him once more - Heizen continued on his assault. He charged once more at the young warrior, his dark blue aura leaving off a streak of light as he flew, whilst his fists were tensed. When the demon got within striking range, he let loose a swift and fluid volley of punches. A barrage of jabs would come Suusao's way as he tried to drive his fists into the man's wide torso. He wasn't going to lose this fight. Eventually Suusao would have to get hit! 

The Demon knew he could just power up further and dominate this, but he had to admit to himself that this was the perfect training for him right now. The whole point of wearing his Weighted Jewel Enchantments on his armor was to progress his powers even further. Having to move around this intensely against a spry opponent would allow him to get more comfortable with the weight and increase his powers. He... was actually surprised with himself that the man he had found could be such a perfect training partner for him. Perhaps he was a Saiyan - they were known to carry such impressive power levels for mere mortals.

[Attacking Suusao again with 616 PL with Barrage of Punches... I know how this is going to go >_>] 

Every hit Heizen fired time after time was shrugged off easily. Suusao was so damn quick, Heizen was starting to question his own ability. "Am I seriously this inferior to this mortal. He hasn't even taken one hit!" he thought to himself worriedly. The two began to take off into the air during Heizen's rampant volley of melee strikes as the Jackal Demon continued to pursue him so viciously. Perhaps the time had come for Heizen to showcase his true power against this foe. A small streak of sweat rolled across the Jackal Demon's brown-skinned face as nervousness began to sweat in. It was the first time in awhile he had come in contact with someone who could resist him this well and seemingly effortless. As the final punch was launched with an extra case of his battle might - his red eyes widened as the boy caught the punch in the palm of his hand and contained its force. Was the gap between their powers this wide? The lad complimented him as a good sparring partner, but it hardly seemed so with the way this guy just shrugged off all of his attacks. "It appears I've underestimated you, young warrior. Perhaps it is time I unveil the curtain - and show you the true depths of my power" he responded back with a frown. He really felt self-conscious having to go so far against the lad. But clearly the man would be able to handle it. 

After being pushed back somewhat by the man's air pressure, Heizen tightened his fists. His dark blue aura grew enormously in size as he unveiled the full extent of his power. Beyond shining around Heizen's body, the dark blue light radiated off of Heizen's skin giving off a dark blue glow. "This is me at full strength, mortal. The power... of those from the Demon Realm," he explained. Demon Heart was an enhanced state channeling the powers of the Demon Realm for their own battle prowess. It was something that the lower demons relied on in order to fight against mortals. "Let's see if this proves a greater challenge for you." 

With his ki fully charged and ready to go, Heizen rushed at Suusao again until he got within close reach of the boy. With an arcing fist the Jackal Demon sought to smash his fist into the boy's stomach with excellent force to cause a gasping effect. Following up with a rising knee, Heizen aimed to collide right into his head to knock him in the air. Assuming that Suusao took the attack and indeed was launched up into the air - Heizen would seemingly disappear from view until he rained down an extended fist as he punched Suusao in the stomach with enough force to send him crashing against the ground with sufficient force. Heizen wasn't holding back anymore, and was fighting with everything the Demon had. The boy's boasts and impressive dodging and blocking had proven he could take it and had a lot more power than Heizen had first assessed. Surely he could handle this too, right?

TWC: 1616

What was this? The Jackal Demon just couldn't seem to figure out what had just happened. The man had so easily evaded his earlier attacks... was he now going too far? Just a few moments ago he felt hopeless, and now he was dominating the battlefield by a landslide. Suusao didn't even block the incoming strikes as his punch to the stomach made him gasp for air (Heizen had hit his solar plexus), and seemed just completely stunned as the knee came straight for his chin and knocked him straight into the air. As the Demon launched Suusao crashing down into the earth below with a mighty boom, a crater forming where he fell from the blast, he couldn't help but question what had just happened. "He has still not thrown a single attack towards me... why hasn't he attacked? Perhaps... that was because he could not. Could he have done something to sacrifice speed and durability for attack power?" he muttered to himself as he began to float down slowly, his arms at his sides nonchalantly. He had never heard of such a technique - he could see it's uses when trying to evade or frustrate his opponent. Perhaps that had been the man's plan all along. 

Inciting the Demon's wrath could have resulted in him being sloppy (and in a way it had worked). He had gotten Heizen to show his true power and therefore his identity. "Hmph, what a cheeky little brat," he thought to himself in a rather amused fashion. He was a true warrior. Heizen watched as the lad crawled out of the crater still reeling from the intensity of the man's blows. Heizen sensed a fluctuation in his energy - perhaps that meant the trick had seceded. Just then, as the warrior appeared to try and get on his feet, he hollered at the Demon in rage and frustration. Such things could only make the Demon smile (though he was unaware of the change in expression himself). The lad had tried so hard to frustrate Heizen only to end up having it turned around. It was actually quite entertaining. 

Though in that rant he had noticed the word "Half-Demon". So that explained everything. Why the warrior's ki was so strange and yet familiar. It also explained his temperament. Half-Demons were usually more volatile than normal due to their conflicting natures (though those who were mixed with human genes were more susceptible to this effect). The way the boy was excited about battle and cocky had been more reminiscent of a Saiyan. "A child of both the Demon World and the Brutal Saiyan Race.... it would seem his potential is most staggering....,"  he reflected to himself. If the boy could learn to control both aspects of his heritage he might prove even more powerful than many of either species. 

The Jackal Demon supposed it was up to him to bring such a thing out of him. It was hard for the demon to discern what to do with him, and thus he engaged himself in deep thought.  "This might be a little dangerous... but I guess it's for a good cause. A Half-Demon is still a demon, after all..." Heizen stared at the boy with that same, cocky smile. It was time to push the lad to control his....demons. 

"Ah, so you're a half-demon then?! I guess that means you're only half as strong as I am!" he roared at the boy in confrontation. "Was it your mother or your father who was the weak, shameful Saiyan? I'll bet it was your mother.  I'll bet that harlot's disappointed to have produced such a fragile, worthless heir!!!" 

Heizen knew that by targeting the boy's emotions he might be able to instill rage. Rage would increase his power and force him to fight with everything he had deep inside. The conflicting natures would both be focused on their mutual hatred of the Jackal Demon, and it was that mutual hatred that would allow Suusao to tap into his hidden power. Heizen prepared himself. If and when this boy snapped, he would unleash a fiery fury onto him that he wasn't altogether sure he could contain. But if it worked...

He would know a power unlike anything he had ever felt before. 

Heizen charged his dark blue aura at full... waiting in patience to see the boy's reaction to his taunts and insults. Whenever he lashed out - Heizen was on his guard and ready to bring this to a whole new level...

Heizen smiled at the Hybrid as he began to power up. The taunting and the pushing seemed to be doing its job. That coupled with Heizen being able to now effortlessly beat him down must have triggered some kind of defensive reaction in the boy. Heizen could feel the tremors of his power as the boy's ki began to rise and plateau. "He.... is just as powerful as I've imagined. He's right at my level in Strength, and yet I fear he may be hiding even more under the surface....," the Demon thought worriedly to himself. And then suddenly in a far-off place Heizen could sense even greater powers afoot in a battle high in the Sky. "At the very least-  I can find solace in that this will probably go unnoticed. The other inhabitants of this world are involved in something much uglier." 

Heizen's eyes widened as Suusao's power began to manifest into a transformation of sorts. The boy's muscle mass had begun to swell and enlarge while gaining a strange ki all throughout his body. His hair had changed. There was - There was no way he was already becoming a Super Saiyan, right? "Perhaps I pushed him...TOO far....," the Jackal Demon realized. If this was the beginning of a Super Saiyan transformation, then he definitely would have to flee! This was far beyond what even he could manage. After a few moments however these fears were thankfully abated by the truth. Suusao wasn't a Super Saiyan yet. 

This was something a bit different. 

Suusao's skin was yellow and his eyes had lost all color. It wasn't a Super Saiyan transformation, but it seemed like something rather similar to it. Heizen couldn't believe his eyes. Heizen was confident that this could end very badly for him, even in his full-power. However things got even worse as Suusao began to place his hands over his head. Heizen could feel him charging an immense amount of energy! As the yellow sphere began to form, the Demon knew he had to intercept it or one of them would die! "Time to test out my new attack!" he thought to himself as he put his hands over his head. Forming a black energy sphere behind his head, blue streaks sparking all across the growing energy, Heizen began prepping his ultimate energy wave. "I'm sorry boy, but I can't let you do this!" he shouted as the enormous black energy wave charged toward him quickly. The boy had no choice but to take it full-force having wasted his energy trying to gather such an enormous charge. The wave carried dark blue streaks racing across it as it was a highly unstable attack. Heizen called this attack "Midnight Bomber". 

If the attack hit (which it likely would), Suusao would find himself overwhelmed and knocked unconscious as a result...

37011 PL Damage to Suusao if it hits, which will knock him unconscious. 

Heizen sighed as the blast propelled the boy across the river and into a nearby rock, his head bleeding from trauma. Heizen knew that the boy would likely drop in and out of consciousness. Out here unconscious in the wilderness. The Demon knew the kid definitely wouldn't be safe out here, at least not until he woke up. Heizen's feet lightly touched the ground as he walked slowly to the unconscious boy. "Your power is most impressive," he muttered aloud to the boy. "One day you might even be my fiercest enemy, and yet I can't help but keep you breathing." 

Heizen leapt over the river and straight towards the rock the boy lay against. "Perhaps it's the demon blood in your veins that I feel responsible for your well-being. Or maybe I'm simply not as evil as you mortals perceive demons to be," he whispered mostly to himself, though it was loud enough for the boy to perceive. Heizen lifted the boy by the color, though suddenly felt a great weight as he tried to push him up over his shoulder. Gasping in exasperation - Heizen realized the boy was wearing weighted clothes as well! His weight... it was even more severe than the Demon's own training regiment. He possessed all that power, and yet he was still holding something back. If the boy had shed his training gear, then this might have been even uglier than he had first assumed. "You... never cease to surprise me, kid." 

Heizen lifted the boy and plopped him over his shoulder - flying off toward a cave he knew of not too far away where he could rest safely from the fight. When the boy awoke - the two would converse a little. He had a few things he was curious about the boy. Namely who he was...
