Scene #1919: Saiyan VS Lantern!

Owner	Pose
Razer	If it weren't for his red power ring, Razer might actually be cold in this place. The harsh winter winds are the sort that might cut right to the bone, but the slight red glow around the Red Lantern's body provides all the warmth he needs to stave off the cold. Anger, it seems, does burn hot - or, at the very least, warm. In his distinctive red and black armored uniform, Razer hovers just above the ground. The iceberg-filled ocean is off to the east but this fight, it appears, will be on solid ground. Fists clenched, lips set in a thin line, Razer seems just as angry as ever, a red star burning around one of his fingers. But will rage be enough to guarentee victory over the Prince of All Saiyans? Time will tell.
Vegeta	Said Prince of All Saiyans is no stranger to rage, His arms are folded, tail wrapped around his waist, blue aura blowing snow in all directions away from him. The cold is hardly a concern for him, he's simply watching the Red Lantern with a seemingly permanent scowl. "So you're the fool who wants to fight me so badly. You don't look like much. Tell me, what did taking an entire planet entail?"
Razer	Razer turns his head up to glance at Vegeta. He doesn't scowl, as such, but there's a thinly-disguised veil of contempt over his face, radiating from behind that winged helmet. "Very little. There are plenty of planets that no one lays claim to in my section of the Multiverse. I'm not stupid enough to expend serious effort on a /trial/."
Vegeta	"It was for your own good. If you aren't powerful enough to take over an entire planet, then you're probably going to die." Vegeta states quite clearly, holding up his fist as blue energy begins to slowly rise around it like thick plasma. If Razer is capable of sensing energy, he'll sense the geomagnetic field of the area becoming disrupted. Then he rises his index and middle finger, causing everything to just go up in a massive atomic explosion. Snow, ice, and rock flying into the air all around them. When the dust settles, they'll be standing on a thick lower layer of ice, completely smooth like a large crater. Vegeta is standing there, arms crossed again.
Razer	Razer lets out a little arrogant 'hmph'. "Or perhaps I'd rather save my energy for the real test." He can't sense energy, but he sees the blue glow and makes ready. Raising his ring hand, Razer lets out a gout of red energy, just in front of him, like a fan of flames. It meets the exploding wave and seems to cancel it out, channelling the energy around him, leaving the Red Lantern standing on what might be the only unaffected part of the local area. t "Like this," Razer comments and, with a shout, swings his ring hand in a backhand blow - sending a lash of red energy squarely at Vegeta, slicing through air and ice!
Vegeta	Vegeta finds himself spinning in the air, then sliding across the ice when the lash of energy hits him in the face. He tries to stop himself, and inevitably slams his fingers through the ice. He watches the Red Lantern, considering what just happened. "Energy manipulation. So you won't be a complete disappointment. And you're not dead." He considers these two factors, and the red mark on his own face. He pulls at the ice, then launches himself forward, holding both hands out to his side as blue energy begins to charge. "I don't know what you are, but this should be fun!" He thrusts his foot against the ice and sends himself into the air, aiming both hands -down- once he's above Razer's head, and releases one combined beam of energy wide enough to consume the man's body. "HA!"
Razer	The beam strikes Razer true and dead on target, seemingly blasting the Red Lantern into the ground. Steam rises from the ice melting around him with the ice further away cracking under the blow. When the steam clears, Razer has been forced to one knee, ring raised above his head. Seems like he deployed some sort of shield, but the harshness of his breathing, the steam rising around him, and the look of immense /rage/ on his face says more than enough. That hurt. "Fun!? Taste the power of my /rage/!" Razer snarls, thrusting his ring hand in Vegeta's direction and leaping clear of the crater. A coruscating, crackling beam of blood-red hate slashes through the air, seeking out Vegeta! Blue and red. It's almost colorful.
Vegeta	Vegeta is blown higher into the air, until he's damned near in the clouds. He closes his eyes, his entire body smoking, then he begins to fall. That blast was a bit of a shock, he wasn't expecting -that- much power. He doesn't wake up until the middle of his descent, then suddenly smiles. That's when his descent becomes even -faster-. He turns around, leaving a trail of smoke behind him from the blast, mixed with a trail of blue energy as he pushes himself even faster. "Yes, that's right, you understand! Let me taste your rage, we'll see just how powerful you can become!" He isn't stoping, he's got two fists leading his body, apparently going to use himself as an incredibly powerful bullet to simply ram directly into the man's body.
Razer	Boom! Vegeta's fists collide with Razer and only a split-second dodge prevents the Red Lantern from being crushed against the ice. Instead, he goes bouncing along the ice, cracking it with each impact. He rolls himself onto his front and rises, wiping at his mouth, spitting up blue blood. He breaks into a run, and leaps at Vegeta. There's no blasts of energy this time, because it has coalesced around his hands and feet. He swings a powerful hook at Vegeta and, should it hit, the red energy around his fist will detonate like a shaped charge!
Vegeta	Blood immediately flies from Vegeta's mouth, and the ground fractures for several yards as the kinetic energy is transferred from his face, right through his feet. "Rage. I can feel it in every blow, -taste- it in every blast. But I don't get the feeling that you're going to -crush- me with it, I can still sense an ounce of -civilty- in you. No, you're not nearly angry enough, I can still sense -weakness-." He holds his hands at his sides, balling fists. Then the ground begins to rumble, pieces of ice rising into the air. "I'll -smother- you in -true- rage! HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" he roars, energy exploding from his body in waves, enough to blow one back like an incredibly powerful wind. His hair explodes into a bright yellow, aura shifting from blue to a wild yellow as well, eyes flashing green.
Razer	Razer /pauses/ as Vegeta changes. He's not sure of the significance but he can guess at it - his opponent just got a whole lot more dangerous, particularly as the simple process of his golden-haired ascension sends Razer stumbling back a few feet, teeth gritted. He blows air out through his clenched fangs. "Weakness?!" Razer snaps. "That's an impressive trick, but that's all it is! My name is Razer, Prince, and I am the right hand of death itself!" Well, let no one say he's short on bravado. Evidently deciding to brave Vegeta's golden aura, Razer bursts forward, lashing out with a flurry of blows! Fists, kicks, elbows - he's strong, sure, but lacking much in the way of fighting finesse.
Vegeta	More blood flies from Vegeta's mouth, bruises appear on his face, and he even finds his stomach caved in. He seems doubled over for a long moment, and he does have to catch his breath. But after a few moments, he -vanishes-. It's not teleportation, he just moved -very- quickly. One might expect him to appear -behind-, but instead he just appears standing up straight, right where he just was, and swings both hands inward, trying to smash them against the man's ears. "Death?! What is death?!" he asks, blood spurting from his mouth with every word. "Just another challenge that I've overcome!"
Razer	Razer shouts out, in pain and disorientated from Vegeta's palm strike. Without the protection of his ring, he'd probably be deafened! The Lantern stumbles, blinking against the shock. There's nothing more than a shouted roar, some inchoate word, and Razer blasts red fire from his hands. Initially, thanks to the incessant ringing in his ears, it goes wide - but then Razer recovers, and brings his hate - a very real force, as it turns out - to bear on Vegeta, scourging away everything it touches!
Vegeta	Vegeta covers his face as that beam starts blowing him back. He can feel the burning against his skin, his spandex starting to tear, armor beginning to melt. He finds himself breathing and smoking heavily again, moved quite a long way back by the blast. "I wonder... Just how far -does- your energy manipulation go. You get your power from rage, but can you truly -channel- that rage, or are you simply a wild beast?" he asks, a good 100 feet away, but his voice carries quite well out here. He points two separated fingers at the Lantern, then begins firing small yellow beams of energy quite quickly. It's difficult to tell what they're for, but if they impact him, they'll immediately expand into solid rings of energy, and -constrict-. They aren't to restrain him, they're going to try and squeeze the -life- out of him. And the Prince of Saiyans starts to slowly walk back toward the man. "I have to wonder what it is that you have to prove. You have the anger of a -boy-, a boy who hasn't learned what he's living for yet."
Razer	"I don't need to channel it," Razer sneers, "I have more than enough focus to defeat you!" Perhaps because the first of those yellow bands doesn't seem to hurt, Razer makes no move to dodge, block or deflect them. It's a mistake, as it turns out, because they /hurt/ and Razer becomes aware that he's fallen into a trap. The bands constrict and crush and Razer doesn't give Vegeta the satisfaction of hearing him cry out. The talk of someone being dead - that stirs memories. Ilana, dead. His fault. Accepting the ring, the promise of power... And then Razer /screams/ and detonates in a burst of bright red energy. He's not really living for anything. His blue eyes dull to a malevolent, demonic red and Razer glares undisguised hatred in Vegeta's direction. They might be on more even footing now.
Vegeta	"That's right!" Vegeta yells, and suddenly swings his finger forward, launching a ball of energy that trails yellow behind it. It moves in an arc, almost like a mortar, and if it lands it'll cause a rather explosive blast with the force of a large missile. "Come get me!"
Razer	Consumed by rage, red flames seeming to lick and roll over his armor, red eyes like they can glare a hole in a fortress wall, Razer focuses and darts forward, shattering the bands of energy. He raises his ring hand and goes to slap the energy ball aside. It doesn't quite work. The ball detonates on contact regardless, obscuring Razer behind the blast. He slams on through it, smoking and burnt, powering on despite his injuries through sheer anger. Oh, and his hands are more like ridiculously huge /claws/ now. When did that happen? "I'm coming for you!" Razer roars, and he swings his claws - they hum as they cut through the air, leaving a malevolent red afterimage in their passing! One wonders how long he can maintain this level of rage. Surely it'll pass?
Vegeta	Blood goes flying as his armor is sliced clean through, and Vegeta can't help but yell from being cut by that red hot energy. He's bleeding out in the ice, but he's already flying backward, trying to make some distance. "I don't know what exactly you are, but you were not a disappointment. Rare is the warrior who can make me bleed. And even more rare is one so unpredictable as yourself." He holds his finger up, large arcs of electricity starting to roll all over his body. He points at Razer with a gun finger, thumb even up like a trigger. "But you -are- still a boy... Bang." He fires a condensed beam of purple energy going at about the speed of a bullet, aiming it directly for his stomach.
Razer	"I am a Red Lantern!" Razer spits out, whirling his claws once again. "I am /rage/! I am /vengeance/! I am /death/!" He stalks towards Vegeta as he bleeds out, and it almost seems like the ice is melting and hissing and steaming under his feet. "I am the bloody hand of Atrocitus' vengeance! And I-" And then he's shot. The purple energy punches through his defensive forcefield before Razer can even realise what's happened and punches through his abdomen just a moment after that. The Red Lantern drops to his knees, one hand on his gut, eyes wide with shock. No. No, he didn't come this far to get shot and go down like this. He's not finished with this prince, yet! It begins as a low groan in the back of his throat and Razer wavers on his knees. For a moment, it seems like he might topple over onto his side. But then he raises his head and opens his mouth and /roars/ - and a gout of red energy, like some sort of cyclone or supernova, bursts forth, threatening to utterly swallow up Vegeta! He probably doesn't have much left, after that.
Vegeta	Vegeta is no stranger to massive blasts of energy, nor to getting the hell out of the way of them. He has to time it -just- right, but at the last moment, he vanishes again, and this time he appears in the air, high above the Red Lantern. "You are a powerful warrior, this much I don't doubt anymore. But you should never consider yourself to be -done- with your training. And you should never allow your past success and fancy titles to cloud your judgment. I've done such plenty of times. But here, allow me to show you. The difference between one who compares himself to death, and one who -delivers- it!" "Big Bang... ATTACK!" He holds his hand down as energy begins to charge within the palm of his hand. But this is different from the others. When he releases this bright white sphere that emits golden light, unlike the others, it brightens the -entire- area, so bright that it even washes out the sky. "If you survive this, perhaps I'll train you." When it impacts, even if it's -dodged-, that tiny sphere of light will explode so powerfully that it actually leaves a massive mushroom cloud that reaches into the sky.
Razer	Razer stares up at Vegeta, floating above him, baring his fangs. He still has one hand pressed to his gut, even as he listens to his opponent. His breathing comes in ragged gasps, pushed through his teeth through sheer stubborness. As Vegeta hurls down his final attack, Razer raises his ring and blasts at it with red light. It vanishes into Vegeta's golden sphere and, all in all, doesn't even seem to slow it down. There's no way he can dodge that. Maybe if he wasn't so injured, but not in his present state. The blast strikes him dead on and Razer, the ice around him and everything else vanishes in that colossal flash, the ice having been flash-melted into vapor. But, at the bottom of the crater, on his back in a pool of water and obviously unconscious yet still breathing and alive, Razer lies silent.
Vegeta	Vegeta's hair fades to black, holding his own stomach wound to slow the bleeding a bit. Then he begins to descend, reaching down to grab Razer by the scruff of his costume, intent on carrying him back to Confederate medical. "Fine, I suppose I'll train you." he decides, flying off for the nearest gate.
