If only that were the truth...
Sabrina, sneakier than her father... and probably more intelligent in the art of stealth, had indeed snuck to watch this brewing battle.
And she was horrifid by what was going on.
Her father... he was something... unnatural. Her father and sensai would have never used a friend to get to KenoTao.
She knew he hated this man. They had fought alot and User did not like it when she mentioned him. He actually, very rarely talked about KenoTao.
In fact, now that she thought about it she didn't know anything about his past. When she asked him once, User had simply replied, 'Things happened to me that I shall never let happen to you.'
Now, he was this... creepy monster thing. He once tried to kill her... and scared her greatly. She didn't hold it against him, when he was like this, his ki felt 'weird', like very evil and uncontrolled. Not the daddy she know.
"Daddy..." She said lightly, still trying to stay hidden from view.
User took the attack in head and went flying into a wall. The wall crumbled over him and for a second, there was silence. However, the rocks began to rumble and then User emereged, surrounded by a ball of green ki that disintegrated the rumble in front of him and produced a smooth curve where he had hit the wall, leaving about a quarter of a perfect sphere in the wake.
The Saiya-jin charged up a massive ball of purple energy in his right hand. Normally this amount of energy for this particular ability required User to use both hands but he was crazily powerful in this form.
It was User's signature attack: the Gyariku-Ho. Normally it was an attack performed very similar to the Kamehameha Wave, except instead of cupped, the hands were held with the back of the hands together.
Now he was holding the powerful technique in one hand.
"Hehehe... GYARIKU-HO!!!!" The Saiya-jin yelled out, releasing the beam towards KenoTao, and the entire arena being filled with the purple light of the Legendary warrior's attack.

Keno, still in a mood slightly different than before, not quite pissed, not quite docile, but somewhere in the middle, had commenced his pursuit on User the moment he emerged form the rubble. All along he was thinking about Jade's safety, as well as Sabrina, whose ki was caught here and there, presumably from her feelings about her father in this monstruous state. Almost on cue User was prepared with yet another signature attack. How long could he keep this up, Keno wondered to himself? Probably forever, until the strain killed him. Flying head first, he lifted up slightly letting the heat of the beam warm his frontside as he pulled back his left arm for another punch, once again holding the threat of ki behind it's force.
Why is this so simple? The Legendary Saiya-jin is fabled to hold nearly infinite power, but still I'm stronger and faster. What good is power if you can't hit your opponent? That's where the stamina and power come from. He'll never wear out. But Keno would. He knew this and had to think of something or else he'd lose simply due to a technicality. But then again, being the underdog made things more entertaining. His left fist shot forth like a bullet being fired from the chamber once again at the mighty head of the Saiya-jin for lack of anything else to hit. With that Gyaraku-Ho technique, User's entire lower body was inaccessible from mid air.

Raleigh looked up at the screen and noticed another unfamiliar figure off to the side. First thinking she was only seeing things she watched it begin to move, leaning forward she noticed that it was child's body. "What is a little one doing in the arena? Is that not safe?" She didn't think twice about it since she had such a soft heart for children. Not knowing how to enter the arena correctly, she walked back towards the reception area and silently called her child, "Duran." A silent thunderstorm took place, and she stepped in, and flashed appearing behind the little girl, "It's not quite safe for you to be here little one." Taking a step closer she found that it was a little girl, she almost squeeled with excitment. "You're so precious, what's your name?" She tried move closser not knowing who the child belonged to, but she didn't want to scare her off.

Jade had been watching the fight intently, when a flash of something in the distance caught her attention, dispite the omnious purple glow of User's attack filling the arena. Her eyes darted over, away from the battle, and she swore she caught sight of someone very familiar.
No.....it can't be her....
As silently, and as quickly as she could, Jade got up,a nd started moving swiftly over to where she saw the flash.
I did not just see Raleigh....right? If it is her...then this has the potential to become extremely dangerous....

Raleigh Faye Raleigh looked up at the screen and noticed another unfamiliar figure off to the side.

She didn't think twice about it since she had such a soft heart for children.

She tried move closser not knowing who the child belonged to, but she didn't want to scare her off. Sabrina stumbled back, "Uh... I... uh... my name is Sabrina..." She said quietly. She looked at User and then at the man named KenoTao. "I am... uh... User's... daughter..., "She said quitely, trying to still stay hidden away from the sight of her rampaging father. User had actully used Instantanous Movement. The fake copy that was firing the powerful beam was really just a clever after-image. In fact, the Saiya-jin was behind KenoTao and had his leg reeled back. He struck forth, attempt to confuse and hit the man, gaining an uppper hand.

Raleigh smile grew to a confused look, User has a daughter? She thought. That was a small suprise but then again Raleigh still knew little about everyone. Still not feeling the intense mood in the arena Raleigh stood in the opening to get a good look. "Well, they look like they are training really hard today. Do you want to get a good seat in the back, or do you want to be safe and watch it in the viewing room? Raleigh leaned against the wall seeing Jade over the other side, and gave a wave in the air, "Hello Jade!" She called out, not knowing if yelling would interrupt their training. "Would you like to come with me Sabrina?" She didn't want to leave the little girl alone.

A perfect use of the After Image. Keno realized that as he felt his body crashing into the rumble, causing the dust and rubble to mix and stir about once again. It was quite annoying in fact that such a thing had just happened. But no matter. What was important now was the fact that it seemed USer now had three idle targets sitting about instead of just one. This was gonna make things very troubling unless Keno returned him to normal soon. He already got what he wanted from all of this so the rest of the battle meant little to him.
As the dust settled, the fallen form of Keno could be seen lying still slightly shaken from the kick. His ki seemed to be dropping a little as he was recovering himself from the attack. Then out of nowhere the form vanished like an illusion. After Image? No. It was different. It was one of Keno's new techniques, the Bushin no Jutsu. What's more is he compiled it with his Signature Confusion so that he could come up behind the Saiya-jin once more. His claws extended once more he thrust out viciously toward the Saiya-jin's neck and was prepared to unleash a small burst of ki that would leave most people gasping for breath, even if for a second. Who knew what effect it would have on User though? He was sure that User was beginning to come more to his senses again, so he'd have to increase his defense again, and not make the same mistakes.

Jade barely glanced over as yet another spectator came into the battle area, someone she didn't know. And because of that, if he go injured, then she wasn't going to worry about it much. Her eyes widened when Raleigh yelled to her, seemingly oblivious to the danger she could be in.
The Saiya-jin girl was now leaping from chair back to chair back over to her, and now that she could see better....Sabrina?!
Now this is a disaster waiting to happen...
Jade finally stopped next tot he two, hoping that her body wuold block the sight of them from User and Keno (not knowing that Keno already knew they were there).
"Raleigh...Sabrina...this isn't exactly the safest place for you two to be right now...The two of them, especially User, are very unpredictable right now...you could be targetted...."

Before Raleigh could greet Jade, she frowned a bit watching as the friend looked uneasy about something, "Jade...?" She then listened to what her friend had to say, and looked back over to the field, "I thought they were just practicing... Is User getting fed up that Keno always wins, and they are just trying to out do eachother?" She gave a small smile, but seeing as Jade's expression never changed she new it probably would be serious. She didn't mind staying either way just to make sure no one really got hurt, even though she couldn't do much. But having a child there was no exception, "Sabrina Darling. Let us go to the viewing room..." She opened and let out her hand.

Sabrina pratically latched herself onto Jade, "But... I want to watch..." She begged of Jade.
The young girl knew that User respected Jade greatly. She was basically the only person that User thought he could count on. It was odd, Sabrina thought. Jade was not the strongest of all the fighters, yet User showed more respect towards Jade than anyone else. Was it because, despite how User could come off, she still treated him with respect and kindess? Sabrina wasn't sure. But if User had anyone he'd a call a friend: Jade was about it.
Thus, to Sabrina, Jade was something of a surrogate mother figure for her. She would generally protect Sabrina whenever User started one of his great showdowns.
"Do we have to go...?"
The ki blast pushed forward, but had no real effect on the Legendary Super Saiya-jin. The warrior turned around and attempted to grab at KenoTao's face and then proceed to smash his face into the ground. User was becoming more sensible... however, the raw fury and uncontrolable power of the Saiya-jin form was still the dominate mindset.
"I'll crush you like a bug!!!"

Like a bug? User intended to crush Keno like a bug? Was that likely? As the Tiger ducked under the Siaya-jin's reach and slid back a few feet he assumed a calm pose that showed no intention to continue battle. It was all going to end very soon. So obviously the thought of a power hungry monkey crushing him was not running through his mind, if anything at all was. The tiger sent up out of nowhere a seemingly insignificant amount of ki. The energy rose straight above, discharging straight out of the being's head. He would have simply beaten the body beyond use, but that would require gambling with three lives that had nothing to do with their little quarrel. The ki simply sat there for a moment, a very pathetic piece of work, but suddenly Keno mustered a huge follow up wave which he fired, lending even more power to the piece of work. The stronger presence of the attack could now be felt, but he wasn't done yet. With a tensing of his body the ki burst forth and after a light faded there sat a vortex that resembled a black hole, glowing with the pain of blood. Its slow spiral began to absorb at something, but nothin within the stands seemed to be showing the least bit effect. However, any fighter able to sense ki would be able to tell the ki Keno had used wasn't completely his own. What's more is that whatever it was was starting to grow in strength and was resembling User's ki. Surely enough, it was starting to sap at him, body and ki, though Keno was sure it would be a while longer before the Saiya-jin was unable to resist it. So with that in mind he resumed another battle stance and prepared to wait it out.

Raliegh looked back out at the two fighting which now became an obvious hazard into her eyes, and walked up towards Jade, "Why are they going at it like this now? What had happened?" She asked looking no where in paticular with Jade in her field of vision, "Did someone die? Or get hurt? Or are they both just in horrible moods and fooled around with eachother during the wrong time?"
