After Meloka returned to the world of the Destroyer Beerus and Chaya departed for her fight, Karn went to his students to train them, only to encounter the Heeters. After a tense first meeting, Karn agreed to aid them in reclaiming their fortress home. Towa and Freeza accompanying Karn, Gas and Elec, the five reclaimed the Heeter's fortress and secured the sensitive date Elec wished to hide, data that he implies to be dangerous to Lord Cooler. After the battle concluded, Karn decided to take a more scenic route back to New Salda, using his Instant Transmission to travel from world to world. And as we rejoin Karn, a local of the frozen world you and Towa find yourselves on is ready to fight.
“HRRAAAA!” the blue-skinned man bellows, raising his axe overhead and lunging towards you. Standing your ground you wait until he's in range, then taking a single step swing. With both hands holding your blade overhead horizontally, in the classic Djem So stance, your practiced swing disarms the creature. Slicing straight through the man's shoulder, the limb flops down into the snow. “GYAAAAAAA!!”
Recoiling in pain the man staggers back several steps, clutching the stump of where his arm used to be. Dropping to a knee, the creature begins gathering icy energy around itself. And as you watch, it freezes the injury shut.
“Oh. That's quite unexpected.” Towa says casually, tone rising a bit with her curiosity. You consider executing the man but decide against it, watching as it looks around for its weapon. You see the man see his axe by you, and on a whim decide to kick his arm and axe over to him. The man looks from his weapon up to you, expression contorting as emotions vie for dominance.
“It's over. Try again, and you'll die.” you tell the creature, who looks again from you to his weapon. He then takes it, prying it from his already-frozen fingers. Seeing this you retake your Djem So stance, but the giant doesn't attack. Instead, it hangs the axe through a loop in its belt, then the blizzard kicks back up again. Blinding you both for a moment, only for the storm to die back down, revealing the monster'd vanished. Leaving no trace he was ever there besides several drops and a small puddle of frozen blood, and his frozen arm. “Smart call.”
