Phoenix Corporation Log 001
Username: Keroth

Is this thing on? Trippy. My name is Keroth, a Half-Human and Half-Saiyan of the Planet Earth. I’m a soldier for Tuffle Legion in the year 955, which I suppose makes me sound like a traitor, considering my heritage, but it’s not that simple. My mother was a farmer who supported the RRA, and when Capsule Corps raided the nearby base, they decided to take care of the base’s “associates”. I spent the next twenty years training on Rein, and now I’m a bit of a deserter, casually fighting the war in my own way. To be honest, I’ve spent the last month or so trying to just enjoy a good drink and cigar at whatever bar the galaxy will let me sit in. It hasn’t been that easy though, seeing as I’m a wanted terrorist by the Northern Alliance. When you’re this good, you can’t avoid making enemies.

Recently I stumbled across an underground lair that was actually the base to something called the Phoenix Corporation. Apparently it used to be a tech-based company that solely existed to avoid ‘monopolies and stagnant marketplaces’, whatever the hell that’s supposed to mean. Seeing as the place had been running itself with droids for the last two hundred years since the last owner died, the entire Corporation now belongs to me.

This brings me to the main subject, this journal log. The Primary AI of the Phoenix Corporation, which I renamed “Janice”, injected a nano-chip into my head that lets me access their computers from a distance. I’m using it right now to write this journal log. I don’t actually give a damn if anybody ever reads this, I’m just writing it for myself in case I get amnesia; you can only get so many concussions or resurrections before things start to get fuzzy.

Alright, I’m putting it on ‘Active Recording’ mode now. It should record a mix of the dialogue around me and my personal thoughts placed into past-tense. Try to ignore the personal thoughts, they’re mostly naked women.

I had recently discovered that the Phoenix Corportation Teleportation System actually worked, and I was abusing the hell out of it. Fred and I were teleporting half-way across Yardrat and back just because we could. Oh, I forgot to mention; Fred is a Changeling that got his mind wiped and turned into a Saibaman by a North Alliance laboratory; Saiyans and science really don’t mix. I burned down the lab so it shouldn’t be happening anymore. Nowadays Fred follows me around, and he’s been a pretty cool wing man. We pulled a few pranks, across Yardrat, and I might be wanted for public indecency in one of their cities now, depending on the law on this planet.

After a few hours, we found out that the Teleportation System needed some time to recharge, so we were stuck in the Hamlet of Prapra. Could be worse, really, Prapra was the city we landed on in the first place, and it made a damn good impression for the people of Yardrat. Though to be honest, the main appeal was that our ship was docked here. “Hm...Well Fred, might as well go sight-see. Once the TS is back up, we’ll head off to Earth. I’ve heard there’s a powerful Hao user there.” Fred grunted back and followed me. He was like a best friend mixed with a pet. Kind of like a…green, midget dog. With thumbs. And he’s butt ugly.

Fred and I wandered throughout the city, which was pretty uneventful. They didn’t sell cigarettes or cigars on this planet; I’ll have to get Phoenix Corp. to start manufacturing them. It wasn’t until it got a bit dark out that we finally found something to do.

Across the street from us, we noticed a suspiciously multicultural crowd around some strange lights. “Alright bud, let’s see what this is all about.” We wandered through the crowd until we had finally shoved our way to the front. As it turns out, the strange lights were from a multi-colored fire pattern in the middle of the street. I don’t mean some nicely made burning logs; I mean colored fire coming off of the pavement in the exact shape of a woman’s face. Looking up, I noticed that the face belonged to a Kaizoku-jin standing in the center, accompanied by a Yardratian old, wrinkly, ugly man.

“Come one, come all!” The wrinkly Yardratian shouted, “Alamo can do any family-friendly patterns you want, any patterns at all! Behold the master of Ki finesse!”

I looked to Fred, hiding my words below the roar of the crowd. “Hm, I suppose that’s cool. But what’s the point of putting so much practice into something useless like that?” Just as I spoke, a soft tap came upon my knee. Looking down, I saw another Yardratian.

“Well, young man, the point of it is entertainment! We are a peaceful people, and we take pride in bringing happiness to each other and to outsiders as well! My name is Palamo, and my sister over there,” he pointed to Alamo, “is the Ki designer of the city.” I turned away from the alien and threw up on Fred’s head. The old wrinkly man was a girl?! it was almost too gross to think about. Those poor Yardratian men…

“Ah-er…Right. I specialize in muscle memory, you see, and it has caused me a great deal of problems lately due to the fact that I require a fighter of much skill to mimic, and our city has not had many skilled fighters who would volunteer for entertainment work.”

“Yeah, sucks to be you. Peace.” I started walking off, dragging Fred behind me. He wasn’t for that though, and dug his toes into the pavement, pulling me back. I wondered what the little guy wanted, but I couldn’t stay mad at that face of his. He tugged on my sleeve and pointed at Palamo, who looked so sad. Sigh. “Fine, fine. I’ll talk to him. You guys must feel some sort of…midget bonding, or something.”

“Hey, Palamo, I’ll uh…I’ll spar with you. Do you know Haokiru?” His eyes lit up with renewed vigor. “No need, no need! I’ll just copy whatever you do! Our match shall be talked about for years!” Palamo rushed through the crowd and into the clearing that Alamo was doing her light shows in. “Step aside sister, my turn has come. Everyone! If I may have your attention! The Great Palamo will now display a true feat of muscle memory, thanks to the volunteer you see before you!”

Strutting through the crowd, I was surprised to hear a few cheers for me. I wasn’t exactly used to that. I shifted into the Haokiru Stance of Offence and bowed to Palamo. “Let’s do this.”
