Destination: Dante's Abyss

[Old Dave]

Uub walked onto the ship, a little pissed he had to give up his scouter, but that was life...at least he got to keep his armor. The ship was large enough to hold him and at least another few hundred fighters. "Jesus....look at all these people..." He scanned the group infront looking for someone he knew and smiled "Hey..Paragus......" Uub waved his hand in the air as he fought to pass between the tightly packed group before him.

ooc: sorry not alot of time...but I thought I should post me getting on...Paragus if you want rp us doing something.

[Toshiro]

OOC: I assume the spar is over..

The warrior's slowly filed out of the gym. The aliens that had gathered & palced bet's had turned in to a few stray wander's. Looking around, a sign struck the demon. Med-bay. Looking to the other's, he motioned the direction & they went for it. All where pretty badly hurt, but all had had one hell of a good time in there. As the group procedded to the med-bay, the demon's mind began to work things over. The group seemed to have a common intrest in all of this. Looking them over, each one had their own diffrent mind. But each one of them seemed to have some form of sturggle.

They all martched in to the med-bay & where directed toward's the rejuvination tank's. Each one of them slipped in to one. The masks & pads being placedo n repsectively. All apart from Nail seemed to have abit of trouble getting in to the tank. Height had its own disadvantage's & so did tail's. But they all where in place after a while. The tanks filling with the rejuvination liquid & letting them heal up for the event's to come..

[Bra]

Bra quickly made it back to her room, trudging through the hallways, shivering from the cold, as she was still wet from the pool. Immediately after heading into her room and closing the door, she took the towel wrapped around herself, and used it to dry off her hair, and then headed into another room to change into a dry pair of clothes.

Dammit, the water's cold.

The cyan-haired girl yawned quietly. She had already been tired when Burter had dropped by, now after her harrowing experience in the water, and then almost learning how to swim, she was absolutely exhausted, and sincerely hoped she would be able to sleep uninterrupted from this point on, though something told her that wouldn't happen.

Must have left the TV on...

Bra walked to the night table in order to pick up the small remote control, turned off the television, and quickly set it back onto the table before climbing into her bed, pulling the blanket over herself. The young warrior didn't have much time to think about the day's events before drifting off into sleep.

OOC: Eh, I was bored.

[Ruhiel]

It seemed amazing to Android 20, that all these people who were being so friendly now, were going to be trying to kill him in a short amount of time. He had just met Yamcha, the super human, Pikkon, the green alien, Minoshia, Tapion's brother, Nail, the namek, and he had already met Tapion from his spar before. Just by looking at all of them, he could tell that most of them were far more powerful than he was. As they walked through the hallways of the ship, each began telling their own stories. Yamcha and Tapion got on quite a ramble about facing the archers, and it was actually quite an amazing 'come-from-behind' victory.

"And so that's how we ended up where we are right now. On our way to a bloody tournament on Dante. How do we get ourselves into these life-threatening situations?" Yamcha asked sarcastically, shaking his head.

Eventually, the convesation steered back to the upcoming tournament on Dante.

"So, there are a lot of strong fighters in this tournament. Right now I can tell that I'm probably going to be the first one to die, considering how Tapion beat the crap outta me in our spar earlier..." Android 20 moaned.

"Don't be so hard on yourself man. If you tell yourself that you're going to lose now, you will lose. Don't think like that. All of us have a chance at winning, we just have to keep a positive outlook things." Pikkon assured him.

"I guess you're right. I will tell myself this now! I WON'T be the first one to die!..." 20 cheered.

"That's the spirit." Yamcha said.

"I'll be the SECOND one to die!" he said smiling.

They all laughed, and continued walking down the hallway, towards the center of the ship.

OOC: OK, so nobody else wanted to take it anywhere, so I did.

[Burter]

This roleplay will follow an NPC who is competing in Dante's Abyss as part of a storyline.. She will be controlled by myself and any questions regarding her may come to me

NPC Name: ???

The tall woman walked quietly into the lobby area on the ship, not moving to greet anybody. Her skin was a strenge color, almost a mix between green and white. This could be explained by the vines wrapped around her legs and arms. Her rear end was barely covered by the leaves and thin vines, which acted as a primitive undergarments, covering her crotch just enough. The vines traveled up the woman's sleek sides and turned into leaves once it hit her breasts. The leaves covered her breasts just enough so nothing is revealed but the outline. Her hair was a dirty brown, falling down were teal back and resting there as she took a seat on a longue chair to the side.

She put her bony face on her sweaty palms, closing her eyes and quietly thinking about why she had decided to come. She was, of course, a very special kind of warrior, but not one who could stand up to the most powerful fighters. She remembered trying to stand up the green man, that fateful day long ago, and he banished her into that forsaken watch for so long. Only recently had she been freed, and now she came to Dante's Abyss. But she didn't come for the adventure, or even the money.

Her reasons were of course unknown to all but her.

[Kami]

Kami sat on the ship, resting up for the coming torrent of physical and mental demands that is Dante's Abyss. He was mostly watching all the people file in, some new faces and old faces all jumbled together. He was also doing his best with his ki sense to size up the competition - there were of course the obvious power houses running around, but he wanted to check and see if there was anyone else he should keep a close eye on.

Aliens, people, whatevers, all came strolling in, one after the other. Nobody really caught his eye, until a greenish white woman came strolling in, clothes made of vines and leaves. She was truely beautiful and deeply intruiging - Kami was curious to know why she was here. He had learned to never underestimate anyone - especially atractive looking women. Kami made a quick mental note to keep an eye on her, if for nothing more than to check out her amazing back side occasionally, and then went back to resting and clearing his mind to prepare.

[Burter]

NPC Name: ???

Her expression didn't change when she saw the elder namekian walk into the room. Of course the woman knew exactly who he was, and what kind of power he hid under his calm exterior. To try and keep the man fixed on her, she caused one of the vines on her side to shift in place and wrap around her small tight belly, and lay there snugly.

She then looked up without warning when she saw the saiyan warrior walk into the lobby, carring a little boy on his shoulders. Her eyes bulged and the nails clenched into her palms. She had found not only one, but two of them. Without wasting a breath, she got up and stepped closer to them, shifting her leaves so they left some skin on her arms showing.

She hadn't planned to converse with the saiyan, but only to speak a few words. She walked directly to him, leaned against his body, and whispered into his ear so quietly that not even the young boy above them could hear.

"She is dying. You must save her."

Without giving him a chance to respond, the forest girl walked away and out of the room.

[]Goku has been met by ???[]

[Android-18]

The creature was rather amusing. This was the first time she had met a figure that had four eyes, not just two. Each one of them now peered at her, waiting for a response. So he was looking to make friends, as most people were at this moment. She had no idea how this whole event would go, and most likely everyone thought the same. Of course it was kind of funny; this fighter could not even sense her. He was not befriending her for her power, or hopefully not because she might look weak. Perhaps it was the fact that she had been sitting alone most of the voyage, and she couldn?t help feeling sad. No one had really cared to talk to her, not even those she knew. He prodded her shoulder and jolted her from her thoughts.

?That?s interesting,? she replied, ?it?s always good to meet new people, and make new friends.? She looked over her shoulder toward a window; it gave a nice view of the stars and space they traveled through. This was a nice lounging area for people to talk and wait, though they all knew their fate, ?And do you have friends here?? She asked the green figure that had started the conversation, ?You never did tell me your name.? Hopefully he really had just wanted to talk, otherwise if it was to get something out of the android, she would feel rather hurt. She kept that to herself and waited for a response.

[Reijin]

**OOC- Sorry for the wait, trying to install all my stuff on my new computer at the moment and type at the same time, and it's fast enough it won't give me time to stop and type while it's doing it, so sorry to make everyone wait.**

Reijin watched as Goku walked off through the bay, and shrugged. He had more to say, but it was apparent the other Saiyan simply wished to be alone. He turned, and followed the large crowd in the direction that Goku had gone, reaching into his pocket to feel for various items. He entered into the room, and an attendant shut the door. He turned, smiling. "Now, for a little privacy!" he laughed. The attendant didn't find him amusing at all.

"Sir, please remove all items from you body."

Reijin looked to the box that was in front of him. "I hope this will be big enough." He reached into his pocket, and soon the box was filled with all of Reijin's belongings. A small pouch containing a single Senzu Bean, another pouch containing five Super Saibamen seeds, a Cloaking Device, a Graviton Bracelet, a Rebreather, and two Stasis Field Grenades. He had left the HQ with Vejita to allow him his constant training. The attendant nodded at his items, and then asked him to remove his clothing.

"On the first date? We hardly know each other." His sarcasm was once again ignored. He simply smiled, wishing everyone had a sense of humor. He removed his Bio Armor and laid it on the table. The attendant walked over, and pulled out a scanner, quickly finding out how the Armor had been modified for it's tactical advantages and how it conformed to the wearer. The scanner showed that Weighted Clothing had been grafted inside of it, with a few other upgrades and modifications from Arlia to increase it's speed. Likewise, his Refined Ore Processing modifications from Vejita-sei appeared on the screen. Finally, the attached Focusing Cloak was scanned.

"Turn around." she said, having grown tired of her job. Reijin turned, spreading his arms out and waited while she ran the scanner up and down his muscular body. The small scanner found nothing on his immediate person, but she pointed at the large detector for him to walk through. He nodded, and stepped through.

The machine's alarm began to go off. The lady quickly pulled out a Ki Rifle on him, and aimed at him. "One move, and I call security."

He stared at her. "You really don't want to do that. I think your equipment is malfunctioning."

She shook her head. "Sir, are you willing to stand by your claim of having removed all items from your body?"

Reijin thought for a moment, then slapped his forehead suddenly, the lady jerking back with her rifle. "Stupid me." He reached up by his eyeball, and touched the corner of his eye. Seconds later, a small film disconnected from his eye and popped out into his hand. He then walked over to his armor and reached into a pocket, pulling out a small capsule. He placed his LENS scouter inside, and then snapped it shut, tossing it into the box with the other things. "I forgot my scouter."

The lady eyed him, but lowered the rifle. "That's a scouter?"

He gave her a cocky grin. "Indeed. From the planet Frost itself."

He saw a shift in her eye in regards to the name Frost, but thought nothing of it. "Very well. How do you wish to lock the box?"

Reijin contemplated, remembering the comment about lost appendages. "Retinal."

She nodded and held up a small imagery scanner for his eye. "Look into this." Seconds later, and image appeared on the screen, an exact copy of his iris. "That'll do it." She programmed the image into the box, and Reijin heard it lock in front of him.

"You may get dressed. I thank you for your cooperation."

Reijin reached over and began to pull on his Armor. He gave her another smile. "What, no cuddling after?"

Moments later he exited the room, a large hand print on his face to cover his large grin. The grin was short lived as he nearly bumped into Raditzu, the long haired Saiyan from before.

"I don't know if anyone's ever told you this but you make being an asshole look easy." he responded, grinning. His eyes shifted to the mark on his face.

Reijin simply chuckled. "Fiesty one. So what are your plans for the tournament? Other than to try to win, of course." he said, rolling his eyes. "How many do you think you will take out?"

[Amadeus]

Jackie meditated quietly in his quarters but returned to normal soon. The elderly human realized he had no chance of survival unless he found someone to go with. So he was gonna have to get to work. He searched the ship for Kirano, but finding the young fighter was very difficult. When he finished his search, he did not find him anywhere. Chun took a deep breath and entered the bar. He ordered himself water and sat behind one of the wooden tables. As he drank the bad water and listened to cheap music, he searched around with his eyes, trying to find someone that could help him in his quest.

OOC:Little, but I dont have any more ideas at the moment.

[Raditzu]

"Try to win?" Rad chuckled. "Nah, I'm gonna win. Anyway, I haven't really decided on how many I want to take out. Last time I was in one of these, I think I only killed three or four people. So I think I'm going to try and double that, as a minimum."

Now that Raditzu thought about it, the last time he had been in the Dante's Abyss tournament, he didn't even have the ability to transform into a Super Saiyan. And now, not only had he grown much stronger, he had ascended beyond a the Super Saiyan level of power. That thought, of course, brought back the haunting thought of not having control over himself. Luckily for him, that kind of berserk rage wouldn't be entirely out of place in something like this. Hell, it might even work to his benefit, who knew?

"What about you?" Rad cocked an eyebrow at the youth. "You sure you're gonna be able to handle something like this? After all, little old me freaked you out, and I can assure you I'm not half as bad as some of the things that'll be in this."

[Reijin]

A small eye raise was all the reaction Raditzu got. "I agree. I do believe I'll have far stronger inferior opponents than you during this little event. I'm hoping to kill at least... all of them!" he responded laughing.

"You may be at a level beyond that of a Super Saiyan, but unless my memory fails me, I do not believe you are the only being in this universe to be there. Which means we may have to team up to take down someone that could be beyond your own power. Speaking of power over you and yours, how is your caretaker?" he wistfully quipped.

[Raditzu]

"Hahaha." Rad shook his head. "Couldn't tell ya, at the moment. Haven't seen her since I signed up. Hard to find the woman, with no ki and all." The long-haired saiyan waved his hand dismissively. "She can take care of herself, though. As for finding people that are stronger than me," Rad flashed a grin of mocking superiority, "I'm counting on it."

As had happened in loading station, a voice rang out over a loudspeaker system, directing everyone to follow the arrows to another sort of debriefing. Everybody moved slowly, in a large line. It was easy to tell that they had either already landed at Dante, or they would be landing very shortly. The atmosphere was quite and somber, giving the prosesion a very death-march-esque quality. Murmering from some of the other warriors announced previously unconfessed doubts about being in this tournament. Rad's tail whipped back and forth, and grin of unchecked mirth spread across his face.

"You feel that?" He turned his head from side to side. Reijin tilted his head to one side in response. "They're all going to die."
