Sara floated in a reinforced, glass pod. She vaguely remembered the reason she was here. She had been given a chance for revenge; she had agreed to undergo an experimental treatment that combined her DNA with an extinct alien race known as the Saiyins. This, in theory, would make her like the one who defeated her. How they had come by this alien DNA she did not know, nor did she care, as long as she could do her job and repay that lout who had nearly killed her.
Rodriquez had been patrolling the skies for five hours now and his quarry was nowhere in sight. Suddenly, Rodriquez's internal scanner bleeped and pointed to the southwest. He had found his target at last.
The adumbration had been searching for any military bases he could find. He had destroyed fifty all ready, but none of them were what he was looking for. He gasped as the pain of a powerful energy blast nearly knocked him from the sky. A quick glance revealed that his attacker was one of those humans who had pestered him before.
"I thought I killed you." growled the adumbration. His opponent just stared back at him with a level gaze.
"I am Captain Mathew Rodriquez. I have been ordered to terminate you." The adumbration gave a smirk and fired an energy blast from his right hand. His opponent easily dodged it and countered with another energy blast of his own.
The adumbration winced as the blow struck home, but quickly recovered and brought both fists down on Rodriquez's backside. Rodriquez's right hand launched from its socket, connected only by a stout cable, and grabbed his opponent arm. The adumbration gave a start as Rodriquez quickly reeled in the line and slammed his opposition squarely in the chest. Rodriquez pressed his advantage and unleashed a furious assault followed by one powerful energy blast from a shoulder mounted laser cannon.
When the smoke cleared, Rodriquez's opponent was still there with his head down and his arms crossed across his chest. He was relatively unscathed, even his clothes were intact, if not a little worse for wear. Rodriquez drew an energy sword from a compartment in his left arm and charged.
