Noise.

Fire.

Explosions.

Tears.

Cold.

Warm.

Speed.

Space.

Destroyer's first memories that he can recall, along with an association with his original homeworld. Throughout the years he has come to theorize that his original home was destroyed, and that somehow, some way, he ended up on Earth. He lives alone in the woods, being mostly self sufficient. He knows of one other of his kind on the planet, although he does not know of their whereabouts, or who they are. He sometimes wants to go search for them, but often abstains as he is busy. This day however, would mark the first day in his journey

"I suppose I should get going then, there's a lot of ground to cover and only 24 hours in the day." Destroyer says to himself. He has a funny habit of doing that often. He finally decides to leap into the air and chooses a direction to fly in.

3 hours pass. No luck

Destroyer changes directions.

3 more hours pass, nothing as of yet.

Getting annoyed, Destroyer decides to finish what he's started.

2 and a half hours pass.

Just as he's about to turn around and head back, he notices a seemingly fresh crater, and a broken open space pod in the middle.

"What the-. Okay, I guess I found what I was looking for." Descending, Destroyer can't sense any nearby energies. He approaches the broken space pod and begins to inspect it. He notices traces of hair and blood, fresh blood. Feeling he's not alone, he continues to inspect the pod, looking for machinery to determine where the pod came from.

????: "Who the hell-! Get away from my pod!"

Destroyer has no time to react, but as he tenses up to prepare for a heavy blow, he feels weak ki blasts impact his back. Strange... Spinning around, he manages to catch a punch from a Saiyan woman, who seems to be battered and bruised. He does not counterattack and simply throws her onto her back.

She suddenly rushes at him and lands a clean blow to the underside of his jaw, which he quickly recovers from. He proceeds to dismantle the female warrior in a few light blows, due to her injuries.

"Damn. That one actually kind of hurt. Anyways... That pod looks awfully familiar. You're a Saiyan, right?"

"Yeah, what's it to you?"

"I was looking for a Saiyan, seems today's my lucky day. I'm one of the only ones of our race left, but I had heard rumors of an odd object approaching this planet, so I searched to see if it's another one of us. Although, you appear to have taken a rough landing."

"Hmph. I'm fine!" She exclaims, clearly not in any state that could be defined as 'fine.'

"Yeah right. And I'm the Super Saiyan of legend. Come with me, I need to make sure as many Saiyans survive as I can."

????: "Whatever. But don't expect me to thank you."

"Don't worry, I wasn't." Destroyer states. He truly wasn't expecting any gratitude, nor did he need any. He had one goal in mind.

"By the way, what's your name?"

"Shai. And you?"

"I don't know my original name, but I've been going by Destroyer on this planet."

"Sounds edgy."

"Shut up."

And with that, the new duo of Saiyans return to Destroyer's home in the middle of nowhere. Once they finally land, Shai strikes up a small conversation.

"This is where you live, huh? It's nowhere near anything else." Shai said apprehensively.

"Yeah well, I prefer it that way. It's quiet and peaceful out here, although a place in the city where I could enjoy the same peace wouldn't be half bad."

"Some Saiyan you are."

"I have no idea what you're talking about. Now come on, let me patch you up and you can be on your way."

"Yeah yeah, whatever".

The pair enter his home, where Destroyer motions her to sit down as he goes to retrieve his limited amount of bandages. After some time, he finally returns saying:

"You know, if I hadn't found you then, you might have died."

"Yeah, you're probably right. I suppose I should thank you, although that would go against my promise."

"I suppose it would. Set your foot up here so I can bandage this part easier."

5 to 10 minutes pass and Destroyer steps back and checks one last time to make sure he bandaged everything.

"With that, you should be good to go."

"Wait, I kinda don't have anywhere to stay... or a way home."

"Where would home be for you?"

"Well... uhhh... point is is that I need somewhere to stay."

"I'm sure as the powerful Saiyan you are you'd be fine out there."

"Hmph! Just let me stay, atleast until I can acquire another space pod."

"Sure, atleast I'll have a decent training partner now."

With that long day over, Destroyer finally goes to sleep, having accomplished his major goal for the last few months: find and establish contact with more members of his race.
