Dragonball M, Chapter 4: Kidnapping! Invasion! A new Threat Strikes First!

Geofront:


As they head towards the lab area inside, more explosions occur in the lab. Distantly, shouting can be heard in some sort of foreign language.

Two dead Threshling Priestesses lay about a 100 yards outside the lab, who’s doors have been blown inwards.

Lingering just long enough to confirm that the Threshlings had passed into the afterworld, Dash leaped the 100 yards to the damaged lab. There was no time, in her mind, to confer with the others who had responded to the call for help as she had. She needed to find out what was going on, or risk having a larger disaster on their hands.

Pausing at the entrance to the lab, she looked inside.

Praxat rushes towards the shouting, Using the springiness of her legs to propel herself like a rocket. Praxat stops short of bumping into Dash." There you are Dash, I have a birthday present for you. It's in my Lab in the mechanical engineering wing of Capsule Corp," Praxat said.

"However, it's going to have to wait, we have to deal with this situation first," Praxat said. On her back, Praxat is carrying a sword that resembles a Nodachi. Praxat is wearing a jacket as part of her current outfit. On the right sleeve of her jacket, there is a flag symbol, and on the left sleeve, there is a coat of arms symbol.

The coat of arms is a symbol of a shield with a raised fist on it. The flag symbol has three green vertical stripes, two blue horizontal stripes, black dots, a lightning bolt, a full moon, and six stars.

OT: Praxat's current outfit.

Parrying the lance, the Knight is blasted upwards by Lantro’s second attack.

As he was hit with the Nega-Dunk, Lantro calls forth another asteroid from the skies to strike down at the Knight with a Mega-Dunk.

"Boxed in, like a fly in a spider's web," Lantro shook his head with a smirk. "Your coach should've trained you better."

As suspected, the most egregious of the assault was undertaken here and the sounds of conflict still resonated from beyond the damaged lab doors. They had little time to react if they were to put an end to this, prompting Shōchū to move past Dash and Praxat and into the depths of the lab. Data flowed across her vision as her scanners picked up any detail of note, although her focus now was on detecting the threshling invaders rather than any miscellaneous notes left behind.

The Knight suddenly vanishes from sight.

Appearing behind Lantro he attempts to impales him on the lance.

The Geofront lab front doors lead to carnage. Blown open, another Threshling lay dead amidst a pile of automated turrets and security bots.

And there, unconscious and bloody and being carried out of a back room by a dozen Threshlings is Jinzi.

The dozen halt and a single figure in Silver armor steps forward from among them.

“Flee or fall, your choice.”

"Relinquish that man or fall, your choice."

The naginata blade popped out from the Tentsukuroibō as she raised it, pointing it towards the attackers, hoping the retort was loud enough to spur Dash and Praxat into the room as they were still outside at the entrance.

It didn't take long for the tension to grow thick in the room as Shōchū evaluated the best course of action to prevent further injury to Jinzi while keeping a close watch on the Threshlings.

"Man, Jinzi should really invest in a bodyguard or something," said Totoma walking up and stopping next to shochu. Dropping into a stance--partially a fighting stance and partially one of his weird poses--he pointed at the Threshlings with an equally weird weird two-fingered point. "Sirs and madams, you are on private property. I ask that you drop the smart guy and exit the premises immediately... is what I would say if I thought you would back down. But ya' won't, will ya? What is it with you threshlings, anyway?"

As he stood there, that trademark golden aura burst into existence, dust and debris swirling about him. Energy arced between his fingers and suddenly a piercing beam of ki erupted from between his fingers, aimed squarely at the Silver Knight.


If the knight had expected the hero of justice to begin with a warning shot, he would find himself surprised as this attack--the Final Justice--was exactly as its name implied. Swift, merciless, and precise... something his mother had helped him develop, actually.

A friend was in danger and, more importantly, he had people in this city to protect, including a new little brother and even newer children of his own. He was over messing around in fights against strong guys like these.

OOC: Not intending to be an auto-hit... just couldn't find a gif w/o the buu parts, lol.

About to respond to Shōchū, the Silver Knight suddenly unleashed an ax that cuts Totoma’s attack in half, the two beams diverging away from the Threshling and further obliterating parts of the lab.

However, oddly enough, in that moment ‘Jinzi’ morphed into a silvery Android that lashed out and skewered six of the Threshlings, surprising the interlopers.

Adam engages those he skewered, speaking over the group’s shared comm.

“Jinzi is safe. Let us dispose of this....garbage.”

Adam.

She had forgotten about him, repressed in her subconscious much as she had with Totoma; another specter from her time as Rex's "emissary". The fact her scanners did not pick up the discrepancies in his form made it all more concerning that the android had grown far more advanced. Once again she steeled herself, having to remind herself that these were not the vengeful dead from her time.

Her memories as Hibachi were pushed aside as Adam's announcement reminded her of her current situation.

"Unfortunate that you could not make your own choice," She remarked to the knight.

Dash's mind races, "What the H E Double Hockey Sticks ....." She knew that Jinzi wasn't on Earth, at least she thought she knew ....

Her surprised look quickly changed to a sly smile, "Adam, Ah like that plan." as she powered up and summoned the Pole Arm that came with the Spider Armor.

Using her speed, she quickly moved in on the remaining threshlings with her Pole Arm, having no qualms about cutting through them if needed to get to their leader and find out what is going on. Hopefully they will back down and surrender before that happens.

Praxat goes into Boost Mode. Praxat arms and legs get noticeably buffer, and steam starts coming off her body. Praxat takes out her ancestor's sword and points it at the remaining threshlings. " You come here to my place of work, make a mess, and massacre my colleagues. I'm not going to let that slide, and by my ancestor Disdemona's sword, I will strike you all down, and make you pay for what you did here," Praxat said.

Using her significantly enhanced speed in Boost Mode, Praxat rushes towards remaining threshlings with her ancestor's sword holding it improperly like a baseball bat." After I'm done with you bastards, your ******* leader is next!" Praxat said.

Lantro's eyes quickly dart behind him as he he shouted, "Rebound!" and a barrier materialized between his back and r the Knight's lance.

Shōchū couldn't help but feel confused as she watched not just Dash, but Praxat as well, run past her and the knight to take out the threshlings behind the latter, acting as if he wasn't even there.

A brief glimpse was given behind her to Totoma, as if to validate that she hadn't been the only one to see that before turning back to the Silver Knight, "You are outnumbered and outpowered at this point. If you agree to answer our questions pertaining to this attack, then you will live through what is to come."
