Time was indeed a factor, there was 24 hours provided for them to train, at longest 47 hours and fifty nine minutes, though that is cutting it short. The point was to get stronger, and even if that meant training with a total b*****d, if there was any motivation other than revenge against those icejin... Raditz wanted to be stronger, he didn't want to be looked down on any longer. ||I don't care for Turles... I don't care for this world... I don't know why I've been acting so strange being here on this planet... there are many things I don't understand, like why would anyone protect a total stranger, and why within the few weeks that I've been here, why have I? So many things I don't understand.... but if any thing I'll set that aside for now... My focus is to grow in strength, I can concern myself with the rest later.||
He hadn't uttered a word as he walked into the chamber many thoughts swirled about in his mind, but now, now he'd cast those things aside... he needed to focus.

The time had come: he and Raditz, alone again after all these years. His disdain for the attitude his nephew had adopted only soured each moment he had to face it. Once Raditz was a proud Saiyajin, eager to prove himself and fight. Now it seemed as if he wanted nothing more than to just fade out of existence. Why? Where had his pride gone? Even Bardock had not lost his Saiyajin pride. Hell even Kakarot, raised amongst Earthlings still held his head high and accepted his destiny as a fighter. Just what the hell was wrong with the firstborn of Bardock's sons? The one he and Bardock had both personally trained in hopes that he would one day make a name for himself and surpass them. Painful as it was to him, the realization crept upon him that it may never happen. Though he wasn't as weak as he once was, Raditz was nowhere the level of the others; but by the end of this training, he damn well better be. Outside, time would pass as a mere day, but inside, to them, it would seem like a year. Allowing them to possess battle power they never imagined they could achieve. "Well," Turles said aloud, looking toward Raditz with his usual cold expression, "Now that we're alone, I think we have some issues that need settling," crouching down, Turles bent his knees then focused his ki into them, leaping toward Raditz with his elbow extended, aiming for his face. "Enough talk and sulking! it's time to see where you stand and if you can back up what you speak of!" he would make Raditz hate him and he would hate Raditz in return and in their anger they would transcend their limits and their powers would grow in their ever-present struggle to best the other. There was always a method to Turles' madness, even when it was dangerous. No sacrifice, no victory and there can never be victory without a few risks being taken along the way.

25●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●  RADITZI'm Back!!! twisted Location- Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate...-------Once upon a time it was merely a game a game that he strived to be the best at... he was small and he didn't quite comprehend the full extent of demise. It was like killing insects, the face of the creature holds no meaning, its life means nothing for it is but a mere vermin. It was child's play, the more he killed the more attention he'd received. To be praised by those who thought he couldn't do it to surpass those who expected him to never succeed. to take glory in returning home soaked from the shoulders down in scarlet blood, the blood of vermin, pests. Life had no value it was all about fun, fighting and glory... Even after both his father and uncle brought him through hell and back in what they called training; still he always obtained something, strength, experience, victory. But when did the confusion start, was it only on earth that he began to doubt or was it before?
Even after the accident in the days of his childhood, when his powers seemed to be placed at a limit, from then and years after he still held his head up high, a proud saiyan, a true weapon of mass destruction!
Perhaps it was later after planet Vegeta's demise when he started to fully understand death, fate, demise. When his mission consisted of conquering a planet and leaving some inhabitants alive to become slaves... seeing survivors mourn their dead loved ones, was the first step of connection.
It brought fourth memories of Kinoko... He remembered the day her crew returned from a victorious mission. Everyone was wounded, it was she that saved her crew and she that received the most damage... the doctors and rejuvenation tanks would do her no good. Raditz could never forget the pain from seeing her fade away, he could never forget the pain from seeing his mother die.
To experience death was to know death to come to a closer understanding of it. When Raditz had first hand view of these vermin mourning the loss of loved ones, this was th moment they had obtained a face, they could feel what he once felt as a kid, what he felt when he lost his mother and what he felt when his whole world was reduced to nothing. Ever since when he went to clear a planet the faces held meaning and he began to doubt. He buried his confusion under glory strength and saiyan pride. He'd done so for years... but what is it about Earth that pulled the veil away exposing who he was, a lost saiyan not knowing his place? Was it that through dying himself, he returned with the knowledge of what he put others through? Not only the pain of losing loved ones and an entire world but also losing one's own life? Now after seeing death from every angle he was capable of comprehending what he did to others, but was killing vermin so wrong?
He'd tried to bury that in his pride before, but there wasn't much pride left to hide how he felt, his convictions and confusion. he couldn't be proud of strength, working with Vegeta and Nappa it was instilled in him that he was a weakling, nothing more an insignificant member of the team. He didn't know to be proud or guilty of his acts and as for his strength, was it something to take pride in or be shamed because he's greatly lacking?
||Where do I stand? What do I have to be proud of? Am I of any worth or am I just another weakling? Who am I? Am I even worthy of a name? How can I call myself a saiyan? How can I call myself anything?|| It was true, he wasn't the proud saiyan he used to be, Raditz could never in his life remember so much confusion, guilt, and pain. ||Why... why does it hurt like this?|| To be in this state having lost his pride, to come to the true realization of what he's been doing brought only guilt in shame and he hadn't an adequate amount of strength to cover it up... Vegeta... Nappa and so many others were right weren't they he was weak... if he were stronger perhaps he'd find his way, if he were stronger perhaps this pain would go away?
"Well," Turles said aloud, looking toward Raditz with his usual cold expression, "Now that we're alone, I think we have some issues that need settling," crouching down, Turles bent his knees then focused his ki into them, leaping toward Raditz with his elbow extended, aiming for his face. "Enough talk and sulking! it's time to see where you stand and if you can back up what you speak of!"
Raditz stood there unmoving... he was supposed to be focused casting all things aside... but still he was lost in a void of confusion. ||For what reason do I exist, what purpose do I have?|| he wondered everyone else seemed to have their own destiny their own niche but what part does one as lost as Raditz take? Distracted by thoughts he took a hard hit to the face with Turles' elbow. It forced him back skidding backwards across the chamber floor as well the gravity made him start to stagger a bit until catching his balance.
Being pulled back into the situation at hand Raditz quickly regained his composure and took stance, eyes fixed on his opponent. ||D@mn! how could I make such a stupid flaw like that, in a real battle zoning out would get me killed!|| he mentally scolded himself. He didn't waste words on Turles just rushed in, ki forming an orb in his palm ready to be unleashed.
