Friend or Foe Cast Reveals - Burter - 10-16-2005
Two figures appeared in the darkness.
A changling stepped forward first, already knowing who it was next to him by the disturbing smell of his scales. Furiza moved into the light around the center of the room, admiring it, examining where it was he had been abrubtly teleported to. The room was fairly large, enough room at least for the three dozen capsule chambers that resided there. All of them were empty, but Furiza was certain they wouldn't be vacant long. "Well, this is odd."
A hiss from behind him confirmed who he had thought it was that appeared with him. "Looks like trouble." Burter noted, stepping forward into the center of the room.
Furiza scowled, turning around. "Thank you, Captain Obvious! What other obversations do you have for us?"
Ignoring his rival's smartass comment, Burter looked over to the left, beyond the pods. Furiza could sense the incoming hostile oppenents before Burter picked up on it, since the reptile had yet to learn how to sense other's power with his head. A loud 'clang' to the right clued Burter into the fact that guests had showed up. Then the reptile spun about, he could see three uniformed warriors charging forward. They were purplish grey with large bug eyes, a little shorter then Burter in height. They all wore matching black outfits, with a large 'FoF' text on the front of the shirts. Both Burter and Furiza immediately recognized the name.
Burter instantly lept forward, jumping off the ground to meet the two incoming monsters with his feet. He jumped off each one in turn, flipping and landing perfectly behind them. Furiza, less of a 'hands-on' warrior took the smarter approach (hiding).
Two more of the greyish monsters appeared, upping the odds to five against one. The reptile spun around to avoid a tackle, then put three hard crushing blows against the face of the closest ugly brute. He turned half-way in order to kick one backwards, then rolled backwards, avoiding yet another tackle.
-----
As Burter battled the unintelligent and unattractive warriors, many figures watched from a one-sided glass window.
In the chair was the instantly recognizable Brim, the founder and producer of a once-famous show known as Friend or Foe. Things had changed about him however, like his once proud face being drawn over his battlescars. His legs, once part of his body had been destroyed, only to be replaced by metallic limbs which served his walking needs. Behind him was his heir, clearly his son. Around them were some guards, and a handful of weakling employees.
"He's gotten better," Brim mused from his seat. "Much better."
"Why did you bring that weak Changling?" Asked the teenage offspring of the producer. "He's just hiding like a coward."
The producer chuckled. In truth, Furiza was a lot like the green man. "He's far from a coward, my boy. Furiza is just...picky with who he chooses to fight."
"Can I go in there and kill them now?" Asked his kin impatiently.
"They don't die," Brim told him. "Yet."
-----
Always true to character, Furiza launched out of his hiding spot. In his hand was a glowing whip made up of his own changling energy. He had come just as Burter was finishing the job, and did some cleaning up of his own. The whip shot forward, clinging around one of the goon's necks and then coiling back, cracking it immediately. He launched a kienzan out next, cutting through the skull of another.
Burter took his kienzan dagger out of the final fighter's neck, having used those to eliminate the other three. He looked up at Furiza, who was smiling. "Thanks for the help."
"No problem," the changling responded, unaware of Burter's hard-to-spot sarcasm.
A clapping sound was heard from behind them. They turned, seeing where the sound was emitting from. It was a slow, sarcastic applause, coming from the man both men hated. Though Burter's reasons were sentimental, Furiza's was more selfish. The changling didn't care that Brim had made a television show to exploit the feelings of other people, he was just pissed it was him that had been exploited.
"You!" Both men shot out.
"Good show, boys," Brim grinned. "Good show."
Burter scowled, "Why are we here?" Both of the rivals took fighting poses, despite the cramped conditions. Neither minded if the building was demolished in the battle. "What do you want?"
"Why, you two are getting a great honor." Brim opened his arms, as if doing them a favor. "You are the first two contestants of a new Friend or Foe competition! A new format, a new style, a new everything!"
"Including a new pair of legs," Furiza noted. "Did you buy those from the dollar store or something?" He had secretly tried to use metal binding on the artifical legs, but the type of metal seemed to be untouchable.
"Funny," Brim frowned. "Regardless, all will be explained when the warriors arrive! The strongest, and biggest cast ever!"
"I refuse!" Burter jumped forward at the sound of another blood-thirsty contest. He wouldn't allow it. Brim was too quick, slapping a punch hard into Burter's armoured chest, sprawling him backwards. Furiza lept into the air, spinning sideways to avoid a ball of wicked ki. By defying gravity, he landed on top of a capsule chamber, only to get hit by a second ki ball and sent flying backwards into the wall.
A bluish set of sexy feminine legs moved towards Burter as his vision started to fog. He rolled onto his back, looking up into her face. It was her. Akira CoShava. The ice lady. "Friend?" The reptile asked, groggily. His time awake was short.
Her voice rang in his ears. "Foe."
She kicked him in the face, and all went black.
Two names appeared on the big screen inside Brim's office. People had already begun to place bets, even though only two constestant's were registered. The games had begun.

"Brim."
Kami recognized the power instantly. He had fought the monster before, and ever since his untimely defeat he had the scent branded into his retena. Nothing could make him forget the horrible battle against Brim, if not for the simple fact that it was one of the few he had lost.
"Yes, Kami. It's me." Came the familar voice. "Welcome back."
Kami had been teleported into chains, limiting his movement. He couldn't turn to face the voice, though he secretly didn't want to see the monster again. "I guess this means the show is back."
"It's more then back, Kami," Brim whispered. He was above and behind him, possibly up on a railing. "This year everything is new...upgraded, if you will. This will be the best Friend or Foe ever."
Kami chose not to answer. He wasn't much for pointless threats or idle conversation. Brim had him locked up, and Kami knew no matter what he said, it would remain that way. So, in this case, the elder chose silence.
"See you when the games begin, Kami."
"I hope so," replied the namekian.
Four circular walls rose up, emitting a warm steam. When it locked into place, Kami fell asleep almost immediately, hearing the familar beeping of a collar locked around his neck.
A new name appeared on the screen.

Brim watched as four new figures appeared inside the holding chamber. It was nice to have some fresh blood entering the show, as he didn't want it to be all recycles from the last version of Friend or Foe. This time at least he would have some newcomers to join the frey.
"Can I kill them?" Said the younger version of Brim. "Please?"
Sighing, the green-coloured man spun his chair around, standing up. "No. Is that all you think about?" Brim moved towards the radio on the wall, to call upon someone he trusted to do the job right.
"I can't help it." Came the reply from his son.
A 'beep' occured when Brim pushed down on the radio. "Get them," he commanded.
-----
Piccolo looked up over the three filled chambers that were standing front row. He recognized the man in the middle chamber, none other then the evil changling Furiza. The other two, despite being familar, hadn't rang a bell.
"Where are we?" Yajirobe asked from behind him. Yaj was admittedly creeped out by the three sleeping figures inside the chamber, as if they were forced in containment. The idea frightened him.
The cybernetic figure overlooked the wiring going into the wall. Seventeen had never anything so complex, except maybe the insides of his own body. Piccolo Daimoun came up beside him, looking over his shoulder to view the insane wirings.
A 'clang' came from somewhere in the room. All four immediately moved together, sending the hosility in the power level. "We've got company!" Daimoun warned, leading them in a fighting stance.
"Get ready!" Yaj told them.
A slender figure lept out like an animal from the top of one of the capsules. Her skin was blue, and her breath freezing cold. She held a rod made entirely of frozen water, holding it up like a weapon. When she rolled in front of Piccolo, he was forced to use his arm to take the pain and block the attack. The woman, infamously known as Akira Dezmon, ducked Piccolo's punch and kicked him back.
Using the rod, Akira expertly thwacked Seventeen across the face, then using it to block all three of Daimoun's kicks. Yajirobe jumped into the air to pounce on the woman, but her quickness allowed her to send an ice ball sprawling into his head, forcing him to fall back painfully. When Piccolo Daimoun got back up, Akira hit him across the head with her ice stick.
Piccolo was the last up, but he, like his friends, didn't last long. Akira kicked him into the chamber that held Burter, and then punched him squarely between the eyes. He was knocked out immediately.

"This is a bit creepy," Goku admitted as his eyes tracked over the filled capsules. He recognized most of them; Burter, Kami, Furiza, and Seventeen. The other capsules had two nameks and an overweight human, all sleeping soundily inside their little station. Normally Goku would think it was a prank, but the 'FoF' logo on each capsule clued him to what was going on. "Where are you, Brim?"
Steam emitted from a capsule nearby. The door had opened, and several wires had awaken as if they had minds of their own. Goku backed up, realizing that the claws on the end of each wire wasn't just there for show.
"I guess that capsule is mine," Goku realized. "Time to go!" The wires shot after him as he turned and zoomed away.
It didn't take long for one of the wires to wrap around his ankle and pull him backwards. Panicking, Goku rolled over and violently kicked one of the electronic devices away. By the time he yanked the cord off his ankle, another one had grabbed his shoulder and tugged him towards the capsule. Using his feet as a sturdy shield, he planted both on the outside of the capsule opening and ripped the cord out of it's hole.
"I'm not playing your game this time, you animal!" Goku lept off the capsule, moving to fly away and stop Brim before his plans began.
His ankle was once again invaded by the coldness of a wire. He was yanked back towards the capsule, this landing fully inside it. He put his other leg out to stop the door from closing, but an electric shock caused him to stop resistance. The door shut and the sleeping gas invaded his breathing area.
From behind the glass window, Brim smiled. His killer had been tamed. Vengeance would be sweet.

Raditzu pulled on his the chains that held him. "Well, this is random." He noted to nobody in particular. One second he was in a fierce battle for the championship of the Furiza Fiesta, the next second he was locked up in some kind of ghetto prison. He was raised up, so he could see the many capsules in the room. Almost three dozen, by the looks of it. "Eighteen? Trunks?"
"A little tied up?" Came a sarcastic voice from below. Trunks lept onto the platform in front of Raditzu, chuckling.
"Cute," Rad replied, not amused. "Any idea where we are?"
Trunks overlooked the bounds on Raditzu. They were made of metal, but like the material on Brim's legs, they were untouchable to the Metal Binding technique. "Not a clue," Trunks told him in response. "And I have no idea how to get you out of there."
"Oh shit," Raditzu whispered. "Never mind the chains, look out!"
A large thick wire had raised itself to be height level with Trunks. As if it had a mind of it's own, it shot forward, wrapping around the saiyan's waist and yanking him backwards. Trunks crashed painfully into the ground, while Rad struggled in his place.
-----
On the other side of the unnessecarily large room, Cell and Android 18 was overlooking the filled capsules, around the same time Raditzu was awakening. The cybernetic woman recognized Kami, Burter, Goku, and even a couple others. Her mind filled with different scenerios of what could have happened, and none of them were pleasent ones.
"Looks like somebody has quite the collection." Cell observed. His was massaging his knuckled, that being the most sore part of his interupted battle with the saiyans.
A 'clang' was heard from the side. "Trunks! Trunks, get up! Look out!" Eighteen looked up immediately.
"Rad!" She moved towards his voice on instinct, wanting to help. Another female figure appeared, blocking her way. The android moved forward to force her way past, but the blue woman raised the icy staff in her hands and blasted a ball of snow into the woman's face.
"He's a little tied up at the moment," Akira smirked.
Behind her lurked a certain space pirate who was not in the mood for jokes or riddles. Bojack lept forward, slamming his elbow into the small of her thin back. She grunted and fell forward, rolling back onto her feet to meet an incoming Cell. Using her ice stick, Akira forced it into his gut three times, then bringing it up directly into his face, causing a painful smack that forced him back.
With momentum on her side, Akira spun about to avoid Eighteen's attack. She cracked her staff onto the woman's back, with full force, causing her to painfully keel forwards. Bojack lept forward, missing his downward punch. As he stood up, Akira shot out one of her ice blasts, hitting him in the chest like a hail of snow forcing itself into him. He flew back, hitting the capsule that contained Piccolo Daimoun. He fell forward, beaten.
"Welcome to my world," Said the arrogant shapeshifter.
-----
A sharp looking wire shot down towards Trunks, one that he had no interest in getting to know. When he rolled out of the way, the wire crushed through the ground. Trunks literally ripped apart the wire around his hips and jumped up, trying to avoid the attacking machines. "I'm getting attacked by a bunch of can openers!"
Steam began to pump outwards from the bottom Raditzu's capsule. The four walls were raising to close around him. "Uh, Trunks! That's nice and all, but this thing is about to close!"
Rad began to pull with all his might on the chains, though the most he could do was get it to creak. Trunks lept back onto the platform, grabbing the front wall to try and pull it down. As he did, two wires snagged around his waist again, pulling him back. "Damnit!" He grunted, getting flung back into his own capsule.
Raditzu finally stopped struggling as the door to Trunks' capsule closed. He could tell he'd be unable to stop the machine from trapping him. When the sleeping gas was let out, he fell immediately into a dreaming state.
Brim stepped forward from his spot in the shadows. He wanted to view this one up close. The strongest warrior in the North Quadrant, was now his actor. His starring role. "I have many plans for you, my saiyan warrior," Brim whispered to the now sleeping saiyan. His capsule was being lowered back down to ground level. "Don't fail me."

Two figures appeared out of nowhere. The soldiers doing repairs on the capsules started back, surprised by the sudden entry. Every immediately recognized them, the second and third placed fighters of the last Friend or Foe: Gohan and Goten.
"Ahhh, you've come early!" Both saiyans turned to see the one man they wished they'd never see again. He looked towards Goten, who had gotten surprisingly bigger and grown much longer hair. "And how you've grown!"
"Why are we here, Brim?!" Goten pointed at him threateningly, enraged just by the sight of him. "What have you done?"
"I'd love to have a nice long discussion about it, but unfortunetly, we're in the middle of repairs."
Brim took out what appeared to be a pistol. Both fighters backed up, knowing what Brim was capable of. It turned out to be a ki pistol, and when he fired Goten was forced back agressively, hitting a capsule. Gohan didn't fair any better, ending up right next to his brother.

Brim was waiting inside the capsule room when the three figures appeared. One he recognized very well, the saiyan girl named Bra who he himself had killed. The other was a larger figure, a heartful human named Yamu and the son of Burter, Burter Junior. "How nice to see you again, Bra."
Bra, never one to hold back her rage, snapped immediately. "Why are we here?! What have we done!? Why is everyone locked up!? You stupid peice of shit, I'll kill you!"
Bra lept forward into the air, her eyes wide with rage. Brim, still leaning back on the capsule that contained Kami, shot a ki blast upwards. It hit her on the smooth shoulder, forcing her backwards and onto the ground painfully.
Burter Jr. moved forward, but Yamu put a hand on his shoulder, knowing the little kid couldn't add up to that kind of power. "What do you want with us?" Yamu asked, clenching his teeth. He was about as pissed as Bra was, but unlike the little girl he could control it when nessecary.
"Why, we're just going to play a game." Brim smiled broadly.
"Somehow I don't think we're going to be playing checkers." Yamu retorted, still a frown across his bulky face.
Brim chuckled, "Are you going to go into your capsules peacefully, or should I just knock you out like your friend here?"
Yamu debated it. Probably smarter to just be quietly. He was a lot of things, but he wasn't stupid. He nodded quietly, still holding BJ by the shoulder.
"I knew I liked you Yamu. You're my kind of guy."
"I'm honored," Yamu answered, sarcasm dripping off his tone.

When his tracked over the capsules, his heart began to beat just a little bit faster. Goku. Raditzu. Eighteen. They were all here, as if taken from their lives to be put on display; like a museum. Why were they here?
"You must be Bardock," came a youthful voice. The saiyan spun around to see a skinny green man, though this was not Brim. This man was much younger, not even out of his teen years yet. "I've heard a lot about ya."
"Where am I? Why are my sons in there?!" Bardock demanded.
"All will be explained later," the boy responded, "But for now. You need to take one of your own."
Bardock prepared himself for the battle. The boy vanished without warning, appearing behind Bardock to plant his elbow painfully into the saiyan's neck. He kicked Bardock whilst he was down, forcing him to the side. Bardock slowly tried to get up, but the shot to his neck had left his spine in too much pain. The man came up to Bardock, and punched his lights out.

The first thing Olibu did when he appeared inside the capsule room was reach up for his halo. It was gone. Just like that, without even lifting a finger, he was back in the living realm, and he was alive. Though the blonde warrior chose to look around the room before celebrating, as it wasn't everyday he turned up inside a random place.
Most of the capsules had somebody in them. He didn't recognize anyone, maybe one or two but the names slipped through his head. Two goons, with a white 'FoF' on their shirts turned up behind him, grinning. When he spun, he could tell they were a hostile bunch. "I guess you're the welcoming committee."
The goons jumped forward, though neither were enough for Olibu's power prowess. Olibu punched one in the gut, then the chest, then finally right square in the nose. The other one only took one shot to knock down.
Another goon appeared, already in the air to pounce on Olibu before he realized it. He turned just in time to see it crashing towards him...
A bright light emmited across the sky and slammed painfully into the monster, sending it back across the room. Olibu turned to see one man he never thought he'd be happy to see: Metal Koola.
"Good to see you too," the metallic changling remarked at Olibu's shocked expression.
Olibu's relieved face turned to worry, backing up, "Is this your doing? Is that why I'm here?"
The changling shrugged. "I don't know what's going on either," he admitted.
A crashing blow to the back of Olibu's head put him down instantly. Metal Koola backed when he saw the female warrioress. Before he could use his unmatched speed to burst out of there, something shot him hard in the back, causing his metallic spine to stop responding. He grunted, falling forward like Olibu.

"I think we might have taken a wrong turn somewhere," the Saiyan Prince told his companion. "I knew you should have let me handle the directions."
"I don't think this is a case of taking a wrong turn." Vegeta turned to see that it was the grey figure who spoke. Bebi was overlooking the capsules, like many had done before him, noting that there were actual people inside them.
"Kakarot." Reijin observed from off to the side. There he was, the saiyan warrior sleeping soundly inside a capsule of his own. He was so helpless, just laying there.
Vegeta found an interesting capsule as well. Raditzu lay in one, asleep, as if he had been put in there willingly. Vegeta had a feeling in his gut that this wasn't the case. Off to the side, the mohawked human found his friends laying in their own deep sleep, inside capsules as well. "This is insane," Uub whispered. "I mean...what the hell?" He was starting up at Burter Jr at the exact moment, but had seen Burter and Yamu as well.
"I don't think we were brought here just to view the collectables," Reijin told them, moving towards the center of the room, inside the spotlight. "We are the collectables."
A light began to form above them, as if a ki shot was being created in someone's palm. This however, was a machine above them, making ki like it would make a spark. All four fighters stood, looking up at it, observing it.
A flash of light ensued, and all four dropped.

The Konat moved towards the open capsule, unsure what to make of it. He was already a little creeped out by the filled capsules of people he knew, seen, or respected. There was no name on the capsule, but since it was the only one open, he had a strong feeling it was meant for him.
A hard blow to the head, sent him sprawling inside. Reacting quick, the Konat kicked back, stopping the door from closing. When he jumped out, the young green male punched to the side, then using his shirt to fling him back into the capsule. The door was shut before he could react.
"Sleep well," he could hear as a strange has was sprayed inside his pod.

"Twenty?!" Krillin jumped forward, wiping his eyes to make sure he was seeing things right. There he was, alive and well, the noble android who put his life on the line to save everyone. The half-robot just blushed, looking to the side. "You're...alive?"
As if to confirm what his friend said, the man put his fingers up, though didn't feel any halo. "Wow..." he whispered. "I am alive. But...how?"
"I think the real question," said a figure from the side. "Is where." The two turned to see a saiyan leaning against the pod, watching them quietly. Apparantly, he had been teleported there with them.
"Looks like a museum," came another voice from the side. A handsome teal man was overlooking the pods quietly.
"Excuse me for ruining this moment so early," all four figures looked to the left to see a young scarred emerald body standing there, a ki rifle in hand. "But we're on a tight schedule, so let's hurry this up."
He shot four times.
And four bodies fell.

"So what's so special about this guy?" Said the son to the father. Brim looked up when his blood-line spoke, interested.
"He's...unique." Brim answered.
The android they were speaking of, Hellfighter 17, had been watching them since he appeared randomly in the room. He backed up, looking at the two relatives, unsure of what was going on.
"He looks like a wimp to me," the boy noted.
"Try him out."
Hellfighter took the insult personally, changing to a fighting stance. The green boy stepped forward, grinning, ready to put the hurt down. Out of nowhere, a large green figure launched it's way into the frey, landing on the smaller figure. Hellfighter backed up, surprised, as Bido violently punched the boy. Finally he was kicked back.
Brim chuckled, "And you must be Bido," he gave hardy laugh. "How amusing."
"Where are we?!" The android demanded, moving next to Bido. Clearly, the two were in the same problem, and would have to work together.
"All will be known in time. For now, sleep tight!" Brim held his hand out, and prepared to put them down.
