She pulled her hands up to her stomach right when he poked her belly button and let out a short giggle. Ichi rose from her kneeling position when Kenta started to get up. She stood in front of Kenta when he put his hand out. Ichi started to blankly stare at Kenta's hand, but then she look up at him and did that grin of hers again. Quickly, she stepped forward and pressed herself against Kenta, lifting her arms up around him neck and squeezing. "Nice to see you too!"

Seeing her on her feet, Kenta removed his hand just in time to catch her in an embrace. It made him happy to be able to hug her, and he purred, albeit lightly as he pressed his cheek to the top of her head. Considering both of his parents' height, he was abnormally tall.
"Miss Ichi," he said suddenly, a thought coming across his mind, "how often do you leave the Orion? It doesn't seem like there's a lot for you to do here, but I never see you actually enter the club. You always come from upstairs."

"Eh?" Ichi pulled away and looked up to the right to think. Why didn't she leave much?
"I guess it's because I don't really need to... Or I do go out a lot, you just don't catch me when I'm gone."
She grabbed Kenta's right hand in her left hand, moving towards the kitchen. "I'm hungry, make me something."

Before he could argue, Kenta was being jerked about from the bar all the way to the kitchen. Why did he have to cook, he wondered. He wasn't particularly good at making anything, even though he knew a few basic recipes here and there.
Entering the kitchen, Kenta began looking about obediently for some idea to spark, and it did so rather quickly. He hadn't expected to find any red bean paste. He cut corners with the pancake mix, but he was in a bit of a rush to make something to hold her off until he could think of something else.
"Have you ever had Dorayaki before?" he asked as he placed a pan on the stove moved to the fridge for some butter and milk. Placing the items on the counter by the stove, he searched next for a mixing spoon and bowl, a spatula, and a plate to put everything on when he was done.

Ichi pulled herself onto one of the empty-spaced countertops and sat down. Dorayaki...? "Is Dorayaki like Riichi Mahjong and takoyaki??" She paused after she asked the question and realized what she said. "A-ah~ Forget I asked such a silly question. My mind is kind of everywhere right now." She looked down at her feet and they began to swing. "I've never tried it, but I'll eat whatever you make me..."

"Are you okay," he asked with genuine concern as he poured milk into the bowl and cut one of the eyes on. "You're a lot less active all of a sudden. It's not like you at all." He'd have put everything down to talk with her were she not hungry, so instead he began to mix the pancake batter, eyes darting back and forth between her and the bowl. Somewhere in the process he realized he was still wearing his haori and hakama and second guessed cooking in such clothes.
With a bit of focus he was able to change clothes once again. This time he had on a casual pair of khakis and a black muscle tee to compliment it. He decided to just go barefoot in case he had to change again.

Ichi looked up and smiled at him. "Yeah! I'm fine, really. I was just thinking about how silly I was." She began to whistle looking all around the kitchen, her legs swinging to and fro. "What's is doradorayaki anyway?"

"Well, if you've ever had mochi cakes, imgine the sweet bean paste stuff in those sandwiched between two small pancakes. In essence that's what it is. It's really more of a snack than a meal." Turning his back to her, he applied a bit of butter to layer the base of the pan before pouring two modest size servings of batter into it. Reaching for the spatula, he brought his gaze back to Miss Ichi, keeping careful attention on the food being cooked.
"I couldn't think of anything else that I'm really good at making," he explained shyly before changing the subject. "Like I said though, it's only a snack, so if you want anything else I could make it for you."

[Very true. But if it wasn't for the clothes I have on, you would be able to see that the sunburn is actually too large for the Vampire skin. The Vamp bodies are slighlty smaller than a standard avatar, and there's a red outline where the burn over extends.]

User-Name User looked at Cado up in the sky, trying to move his body to attack. But it protested against him, to thrashed to really do anything but stand uneasily on his legs. But suddenly, a ki blast was coming at him. And with a last burst of his ki reserves, the Saiya-jin Prince jumped to the side.
It didn't help much, but it saved his leg. Sorta. The powerful blast still hit it and thrashed it hell. He felt the skin burn away from his left knee. Through the ringing in his head, he heard and felt the bones within and around his knee shatter apart. He fell to the ground from his sudden movement, tumbling and rolling.
He grunted in pain, through gritted teeth trying not to yell. He had his pride to maintain even as this new knee wound bled profusely. Once more he tried to stand, but this time it wasn't happening. The leg was useless now.
The Saiya-jin Prince laid on the ground, turning to his back. He realized he was gasping for air, spitting out a great deal of blood from his mouth through ragged breathes. User cursed the gods and his own weakness, trying to move his body which could only respond in token efforts.
He looked at the sky. Waiting for his fate. At least he'd die defending this world, this adopted home... < >
The Orinian Emperor was halfway to his destination, able to see his guard and his would-be assassin a little clearer now. The smoke and dust was beginning to settle, revealing their battlefield to be a mess. What was left of the islands was scattered about in the ocean, nothing more than a series of scorched jagged rocks. For the two monkeys, the fight was practically over now. Cado wouldn't end it until given the order, but there was only so much User could do. Like cough up blood or be in pain. The battle would be reduced to the big man toying with User until called off or given the order to kill. Which would come soon.
Now that Cado had immobilized him, he needed only occupy the one-kneed Prince of the Saiyajin. The big man descended with bolts of lightning coursing through his body as he reached the ravaged earth. His great weight hit the ground a few meters from User, which he closed with a couple long-legged steps. The smaller warrior was a mess. It was a wonder he could maintain his ascended form for so long, but given how little strength he had left soon that too would leave him. Without fear of attack, Cado reached down with one of his big paws and took hold of the ankle on User's good leg.
Pulling the little man from the ground, the imperial guard stood up straight and held the defeated Princeling upside down. Though he had to hunch, he was only a short ways away from staring at the boy at eye level.

User spat at the great mountain of a Saiya-jin's face. It was a mixture of saliva and blood, mostly blood. Pain rolled over the warrior prince's body in waves... no, tsunamis. It was threatening to drown him out of his conscious but he continued to fight off blacking out. So far, he was winning that fight at least.
The Saiya-jin grinned, "T-that it? J... just getting started, b*****d..." He started to chuckle then laugh, a laughter of a man knowing he was about to die and had nothing to lose. Nothing but pride was left now and nothing could ever beat that out of User.
He glared angrily at the Saiya-jin hold him by his good leg. He held his good arm, it shaking violently with the incredible effort. User's palm was open though covered in blood. With all his might, he tried to focus ki into his hand. All that happened was a small sphere of yellow energy forming, barely a few inches in size. It quickly died, the energy simply fading away. The arm succumbed to gravity, going back to dangling lifelessly past User's head.
User just grinned, "W-w-what now? Kill... m-me? My friends... w-will avenge my... dea... death..." The grin faded, his face becoming almost sad. The too proud warrior didn't say it out loud, but he knew how much his death would hurt his little girl.
Then his face became one of resolve, "No... matter... j-just what happens... you're... you're m-master will never get Earth. Never... get the... the galaxy. H-he'll... die... y-you'll die... and the u-universe... will be s-safe..."
