I made a post as a custom I'm considering. Here it is.

Distraught with fear, Graep moved about the complex, slipping from shadow to shadow, hiding spot to hiding spot, and vantage point to vantage point. The guards shuffled past him, their feet stomping the hard concrete as the formation continued their march. No one even cared to notice the Saiyan crouching in the corner, under the cover of shadow.
Escape!, thought Graep, It?s my only option. Fighting won?t do me any good against those ki powered rifles. The strapping young Saiyan darted from concealment when the sentinels? footsteps were out of earshot, and quickly grasped onto and climbed up a shackle hanging from the crest of the citadel barricade. His ascent was quick, and his escape was set in his mind.
The strategist looked about, watching the paths of the spotlights and the patrols of the sentries. The cogs in his mind were working as he observed, and then he made a leap. Pushing his feat off the top of the wall, he glided gracefully over to the exterior wall, and then leaped down out of the limits of the fortification just as a spotlight was about to pass over the spot he landed on.
Cheering inside, the Saiyan sneered, running out across the concrete surface of the parking lot. Leaping, then, into a jeep, Graep quickly punched the ignition in, somehow starting the car. The jeep sped forth, rearing back like a horse might do. Soon, however, Graep was able to straighten it out?but not before he heard the booming sound of a megaphone behind him.
?Stop where you are! You are under arrest for attempted prison break!? called the man?s voice from the helicopter that pursued him. The pursuit was just beginning, so the Saiyan wasn?t about to give up now. Pushing his foot down hard on the gas pedal, he heard the roar of the engine as the jeep swiftly increased its velocity. The roaring noise was like a battle cry to the Saiyan, who embraced it warmly.
?Come and get me if you can!? he called smugly. The grin on his face grew wider as he leaned closer to the steering wheel. Abruptly, the roaring of the engine could not be heard anymore for the high-pitched squeal of an approaching missile. Attempting to swerve the car out of the way, the Saiyan did an 180o turn and was face head on with the tip of the helicopter?s torpedo.
A large blast of flame opened up the road as the jeep was flung off of the nearby precipice. Tumbling down the hill, Graep?s many attempts to flee certain death proved unsuccessful and vain, and the car eventually toppled into the canopy of the forest below, hanging itself on the outreaching branches of a large oak tree. Graep was very thankful?he was alive.
?Perhaps you didn?t hear me before,? boomed the man?s voice yet again as a rope ladder dropped through the branches and hung at a level where the man with the megaphone and Graep could see eye-to-eye. ?You?re under arrest for attempted prison break, Graep,? the voice rumbled. Graep?s smirk flipped into a grimace as the man gestured for him to hurry over to the ladder.
Standing, Graep said, ?Love to.? As he leaped over, Graep grasped a hold of the man?s hand, in a ploy to allow him to pull him up. The man did so, and Graep smirked as the man yelled up to the people in the copter that he had captured the Saiyan. In a move of trickery, the raven-haired man kicked his arrester off of the raising ladder to the forest floor below.
?What the?? yelled the man as he plummeted to down towards the Earth?s surface. Laughing, Graep watched as the man splat into the ground, sending himself to his demise in the process. The ladder rose upwards through the canopy, and Graep turned his attention upwards to the two people in the aircraft. As the ladder got shorter, Graep climbed it, and then ascended into the aircraft.
?Where?s Jack?? the man who had raised the ladder asked fearfully. Graep maliciously approached him, grasping him by the collar and holding him outside of the helicopter. The man in the cockpit threatened to crash the helicopter, but Graep would not be intimidated by thoughts of death or by the screams of the man who was dangling.
?The itsy bitsy spider crawled up the water spout,? Graep sang, ?Down came the rain and washed the spider out.? And with that, Graep dropped him to the same fate as his comrade. The Saiyan next walked into the cockpit and sat in the seat next to the pilot. ?You see, my friend, in this metaphor, you people are the spider and I am the rain. It?s quite thrilling, is it not??
?Don?t hurt me,? pleaded the pilot. The Saiyan laughed. He had no desire to show mercy to any of these pathetic humans who had imprisoned him. Standing, Graep grasped the pilot by the collar and sat him down in the other area of the craft. Taking the rope ladder, he tied him to a pole which people used to keep their balance while flying.
?You?re about to crash into that mountain over there, okay?? Graep told the pilot. ?Oh and when you do?Out comes the sun and out goes the rain and the itsy bitsy spider never crawls up the spout again.? Snickering, Graep backed up and back flipped out of the plane, grasping hold of a tree trunk just in time to get a good view of the explosion. His monkey tail flicked around in happiness.
He did good work.
