Watching the success of his ambush putting Rose in the position to get completely pummeled by Celleri was a good thing. All that's left to do was to simply take her back. Almost completely forgetting about Rawber, not realizing the amount of ki build-up coming from his direction. Dropping to one of the remaining buildings that was halfway not destroyed completely, he watched as Celleri pummeled Rose with such a thirst for blood. "Alright Celleri, remember our orders are to bring her in alive not dead..."
Celleri retorted, "I'm not gonna kill her. Not just yet!" With the continuation of smashing the girl's face in with her fists, Rose attempted to fight on her back which only made the saiyan want to hurt her even more. That is, until she felt saliva hit her in the eye. Luckily she closed it in time but it made Celleri stop just for a moment. A moment where rage built up higher than before. As well in that moment, Rose launched a blast at Celleri point-blank that went off on her. "You lousy tramp! Don't push your luck!" Squeezing ever so tightly, much tighter than before, Celleri on instinct lifted the girl off the ground just to immediately slam her headfirst back into the grounds and repeated the process. Nothing more than merely pissed off, Celleri in that moment ignored the mission's conditions with full attempts to rip the woman's head completely away from her shoulders.
Watching the entire action go down, Rootaba swiped away the smoke from the blast that Rose made, seeing the first collision of Celleri just smashing the girl into the ground. He knew what Celleri was going to do and now just wasn't the time. The next two times went off, he could tell there wasn't going to be much life left if this continued. Before the third collision could happen, Rootaba's hand clenched the wrist of Celleri before coldly staring her down. "The mission's accomplished Celleri. Anymore and General Escaro is going to have our heads over the failure of the mission. I won't allow it." They both stared each other down. Celleri's eyes who were more of a predator instead of a soldier met with Rootaba's fierce look. The look always sent a shiver down her spine. She gradually came back with a few grunts realizing the situation. "Yeah...right. After we return her, I will kill her." Saying back looking at the body covered in bruises, cuts, and blood. Her skin almost going pale, merely lifeless. Shoving her wrist away from Rootaba still holding her clutch over Rose. Her nose picked up something strange and that was happening nearby. But it didn't matter, they got what they came here for. "Hurry up and open the transporter. I'm itching to beat the life out of this tramp.""Right...it'll form in approximately 2 minutes..."
As Rawber was about to rush his foe he noticed someone being assaulted by a woman he assumed to be an accomplice. They argued for a moment then it seemed the woman backed down to him. It didn't matter at this point. He shook his head and rushed forth, hands ablaze and raring to go, but he switched target halfway through.
As he approached, a familiar barrier formed around his original target. He was certain his signal would have had her leave, but she was stubborn. He was kinda glad as it would make this a little easier for him to hit her. He hoped. He stopped in arms reach and began to unleash a combo of clawing and punching attacks.
Erupting Wolf Fang Fist: Rawber concentrates his ki into a burning fire on his hands. He then unleashes a combo of clawing and punching attacks, finishing with a double palm strike to the face with a wolf head shaped ki strike that clamps onto the head and explodes after, often sending foes reeling back.
Just Close Your Eyes, The Sun Is Going Down, You'll Be Alright...,No One Can Hurt You Now, Come Morning Light..
The blast goes off, as Celleri would continue yelling saying that she isn't done with her yet. Though in the moments of what Rose herself did, Celleri got very angry and she felt her head being slammed. Slam...Slam...Slam... blood, bruises all of that was all introduced passionately to Rose. The struggles...fighting against them... all seemed to be washed away like it was a nightmare as she would enter further into her own mind. A flash back occurs, back to the time when she first created Avoca. The sound of the wrench, gears coming together, the gritting of teeth when something to design didn't work. Then finally in the flash back, Avoca was up and standing with the programming code in brain, and data just screening up and down in her eyes. That hug, the very hug Rose herself enjoyed from Avoca the first time, Avoca was so excited she seemed ready to protect and serve Rose, her creator.
It was like a beautiful dream, like being at the beach, orange juice in hand, getting their tan on. The description of what seemed ever lasting beauty in all the hard work Rose did. The sound of reality was shattered, nothing reached on deaf ears, neither could it stop such a flash back. Sure wished it could last forever but it was only a painful reminder on what reality would speak. It speaks "Accept it, Avoca is gone, you are no longer protected." Something like that ringed in Rose's head for a little while after arriving on Earth, after the tracker stopped working. The indication that Avoca's life was snuffed out, such a painful hour and it continued on in a endless spiral of hopelessness. It led eventually to her new will, to seek out the man responsible for her death. What she BELIEVES is responsible, the tallish man that Avoca fought once, his tail all extended, she can't forget his face.
That is why she spoke no word to Rootaba or Celleri, she was too quiet in her rage, her anger, her hatred of the man. Yet she doesn't have answers to what happened involving Avoca and many other things too. She needs answers first before she will execute him for his heinous crime against her one treasured creation. Perhaps the man will start begging for his life to be spared, but no, she will refuse to spare his life after he has admitted what he had done.
With about a minute passing, Both Saiyans were prepared to leave. Celleri rested her arm enough to drag the girl across the ground. The portal finally appeared as she proceeded to walk in front of and shifted her body to drop her inside. What she didn't expect was suddenly another person attack jump her. The collision course forced her hand open as the target toppled over into the portal, sending her straight back to Planet Articho without either Celleri or Rootaba recognizing but at the cost of Celleri being thrown in some rubble from the surprise attack.
Rootaba who was shocked by the fact that this guy was still standing but also stopping them from achieving their mission. It was the same guy, fury grew within the saiyan as the attempted to move, he caught on the fact that he suddenly could not move. Some kind of barrier surrounded him that prevented him from being able to perform any action. ”What the?!” His eyes traced around for what could be causing him to be utterly still while Celleri had to deal with the unwanted guest.
After colliding with the rusted debris, Celleri took notice of the face of the man who attacked her and chased her down with a combo of strikes. Immediately, she let off a ki blast to produce enough smoke for her to bounce out for a moment to breathe. Fueled by anger, her entire head brushed off from one side to the other looking for her teammate. Spotting him, looking like a deer in headlights exhumed fury out of her soul…”You MORON! Why’re you standing there like a scared little boy!””Shut up! I can’t move!” Suddenly, a light sparkled in the corner of Celleri’s eye. Something going on in the distance. Without a second thought, she shot a ki blast in that direction that eventually faded about halfway there…unbeknownst to whatever in that direction left a small sparkle of her own that continued to fly before reaching the end of of where it was going. Firing off a blast in its own as if it were a land mine. Not knowing that the blast was gunned at Rawber’s accomplice.
At the sign of Celleri blasting the air randomly, he was sure that Rawber was still going to pursue and fed up with the annoyance, Rootaba let out a burst of ki that broke the barrier. Seeing something in the distance blow up, he floated higher into the air to intercept a strike that was coming for Celleri with a grin on his face. Holding the man in place. ”Let’s take care of this matter Celleri.” The girl didn’t even bother to look as a laughter came up on her before flying around the both and assaulted Rawber from behind. ”Absolutely!” Both let out a flurry of strikes in conjunction with each other on Rawber as he attempted to fend off the both of them. Both fighters, despite relative in their sense of power and skill, taking on both at once who prioritized in precise, aggressive teamwork eventually overwhelmed him to the point where the scale of power smoothly took over to the side of the saiyan duo.
Ultimately, Rootaba started getting disappointed while pressing verbal jousts over the saiyan defender, taking the mental struggle on a higher level than desired of the Earthly defender. Celleri didn’t bother, she just wanted to battle, break and brutalize this person simply for the thought of wanting to take part in business he had no place in. The fact her anger was already riled up, increased the desire without a fact. Suddenly Celleri took advantage of a blind spot that they manage to open and struck it with full force out of pure hunger. Laughing furiously, it opened enough room to deliver a stronger strike to the temple, allowing Rootaba to take advantage with continuous ki blasts before knocking him below to the grounds. After looking amongst each other, they both stalked down the body of Rawber before blasting him together from above.
The blasts went on for minutes before Rootaba cut it off completely. Both gradually dropped to the grounds, opening another portal after looking around. As the portal opened Celleri noted how she’s not wasting anymore time and going to head on ahead before taking off. Shaking his head, Rootaba stepped closer before taking a moment to look over, he caught sight of Rawber’s body, walking over to see him laying there. Applying his fingers to the neck, amused to see that though the severe beating, the fact he was cleaving to life, he still managed to breathe. ”I knew it…a saiyan. Lord Xiutyr and General Escaro would be pleased to know a new recruit joining the forces… Especially since you’ll be blessed with the saigon’s nature. You’ll be quite useful for sure.” Looking at his face, noticing the portal was about to fade off, the soldier picked up Rawber’s body and carried him off his shoulder before chugging him into the portal. Who would’ve thought that not only they recovered that package, but increased their forces many times over. Finally picking up the data of what’s going on in the distance, sensing higher levels of power. Grateful that their veils continued to mask their presence but figured someone would learn this one’s missing. Oh well, bad luck for them. Stepping into the portal, the door vanished leaving no trace of any of them left behind. Both now this mystery woman and Rawber himself gone.
It hit had her faster than she was expecting. It knocked the wind out of her and planted her halfway through the corner of a building. By the time she was able to properly catch her breath she saw them carrying Rawber off into a portal. She tried to crawl over to stop them. "N-no! Stop!" It was sadly too late. The portal had closed behind them.
As she approached where they had been she saw his "battle skirt"™. Tattered, bloodied, and heartbreaking to see, she picked it up and began to cry. "If I had just been stronger. If I hadn't been scared. " She wondered what she'd tell his family.

┗ Flying from one city to another, Ryuzu caught notice of the ruins and destruction. Landing on the rugged terrain, the saiyan warrior looked around recognizing something interesting. "There definitely was a fight. This rubble is fresh from the rest. Exactly what happened here?" ┓
╚════════════════════════════════════════╝ doesn't mean I will not hesitate in killing you...
She watched as someone new approached. Someone with a tail like Rawber's! Another saiyan? He wasn't one she recognized from the village, so maybe it was an enemy? Or could he be - "E-excuse me, but would you happen to be Ryuzu?" She carefully approached, hoping her hunch was right. If not, she hoped the Flashscreen she was hiding under Rawber's battle skirt™ would be enough to get away.
Just because I adapted to Earthly living... ╔════════════════════════════════════════╗
┗ Ryuzu couldn't fathom in that very moment the potential brutality of what could have happened. Continuing to investigate, the sounds of a woman rang afar that had gotten closer to him. Asking for him by name. Ryuzu didn't know this young girl so his guard obviously went up. "Depends, who are you? Are you responsible for what'd happened here?" His muscles tightened to defensive measures. Awaiting for any kind of attack for him to exploit if he so had to. First Rawber disappears then all of a sudden a girl shows up looking for him by name? Could she play a role in Rawber's disappearance? If so, is she targeting all the Saiyans? ┓
