It was about a week after the take Shaoran had attacked the planet Vegeta, so there was at least some time to distance himself from the whole incident. That was likely the only thing that saved him from those allegations, since Shaoran should not have had the ability to release poison gas that didn't kill him, but did to major damage to the other Saiyans that had been around him. In particular, Shaoran had found that the gas that Syoaran used attacked their S cells in particular to cut down on the Saiyans' battle power and damaged their internal organs. The combination was rather deadly to weak Saiyans and strong Saiyans alike. Their only sollice was that it was a market place and one base attacked.
This still forced Shaoran through hardship, though, as he was temporarily taken to a holding cell. Even if he had helped Middy the Elite out with his mission to protect that crime boss, that didn't mean that he was not part of the people involved with his case. So instead, he decided that he'd go through with a different set of rules to do this. As he aws taken up to take the stand, the defendant Shaoran looked to the judge and when he was asked what his plea was, he spoke calmly and without hesitation. "Trial by combat." The right of a second class, even though it was small, still made those within the court laugh.
"Very well, Shaoran. But since you've insisted on this, and we still don't know if you can produce that gas... you will have to fight an Elite." They were confident that his strength was, after all, just tall tales. The judge slammed his fist on the table before a screen showed up. "Luckily, Middy, you are called in for this court, to defend the court's honor. But it won't be through testimony. It seems that our second class boy wants a trial by combat. You are called to defend the military in this matter." There wasn't a soul in the room that thought that Shaoran hadn't swindled his way into the military in the first place. Wasn't he just too weak in the first place, even to be second class?
None of them had seen the Saiyan fight, but they would have realized their mistake earlier as the man stepped over to the ancient ring. He was without his weapons, but that didn't honestly make that much of a difference with the Saiyan. He was a master of the arts of hand to hand fighting along with weapons. After all, to him, the weapons were just extensions of his hands. He still had the Morphing Weapon, the shard that Yua had left with him just in case. It would be a one time use, so he would have to make it count- be it here or at another crucial time.
As the Saiyan watched his opponent, whenever he came out, he would get into a stance. Shaoran was without armor, and had just street gear on. This would be a big hurtle for him, since he believed Middy would use his full array of armor. So Shaoran started off with a calm face as he released his full suppressed power, as he looked at the Elite. "I'll start then," he stated calmly. He sprung at Middy without much pause, only a millisecond was given to the man. Shaoran swung for the other's body, this a clear show to dominate the fight and the narrative. The punch would look like a Seraphin Punch, but Middy might notice in time the yellow energy had lightning behind it. Only half his armor would protect him, if he was struck.
"Now let's kick this up a notch. Warm up in base," he suggested as the Saiyan kicked up with the force of a mountain. His blow combined with a punch that aimed to stagger Middy first, and right after, launch the other into the air. Shaoran followed after him with a calm expression, as he sought to slam a fist at Middy's stomach once more, this time an open palm strike that would have sent him into the ground to crack the very earth below them should he connect the strike. A much different display from his android self.

Midnight was in the trial room, Shaoran was captured and tried by the saiyan empire and was recently in a cell; served him right for trying to assasinate fellow saiyans, this warrior was really a renegade to the empire, the saiyan elite now spoke freely. "You attacked saiyans, and me with a poison which nearly killed me but killed many others."
He said openly. "It would have to come to this, he did help me defeat the ginyu mercenaries who came to kill a crimeboss that didn't want to kick up to them period. I've seen the crimeboss, he's a short alien who's power is money and racketeering. He's scum to the saiyans, personally i wonder why he came to vegeta and not valhalla or ippen. The saiyan king isn't too fond of outsiders but this short alien called ahead of time and made an appointment and even had tribute to our great king. Even so, the great king isn't for sale, but money is a serious modivating factor, its either you make it, steal it, or cheat and lie for it as much as killing.... now we will start this, and if i win, you tell us everything...who you work for and who paid you. Was it a corrupt senator? A dirty congressman? A galactic crime family?"
He wanted answers to know why Shaoran was on vegeta and this was pretty much a legit reason for the questioning. He thought the rebels paid 2nd class saiyan soilder to attack, tricking and lying to him with money and patriotism.
Midnight had his gear on, his inscriptions were now active as he was primed to the tits to stand up and suppress this strong saiyan warrior. His inscriptions of endurance which gave him 10% more ki, constitution to make him have a better guard and grace to have more difficult to dodge attacks.
Soon the two were gonna go at it, the former 2nd class coming forward with a hard serafin punch to the chest which middy braced himself and grounded the attack which caused cracks to form in the floor underneath the saiyan war veteran. He actually felt it and upon impact, he now decided it was time to show Shaoran while at base what he was all about. He now using power fly screamed and shot in fast with a hard haymaker to the face then a spinning kick to the body but a hard palm strike while preforming the spin kick came as he left himself open, just about to hit the floor until he used an earth method of levitation called hovering vortex, so as not to touch the ground then by upping his speed he got right into the woman's front flank and with a ki infused turtle claw strike with both hands thrusting towards the solarplex of the saiyan in an attempt to take the air out of his sails.
Midnight didn't see this one attack him, something was different. !1) He didn't feel robotic from the touch and two) He could feel her energy, her ki. Before there were two and he thought it was deca form but he was wrong from what he felt and sensed from this warrior. As far as Shaoran being a lower rank, he didn't even cares... he hits harder then any second class soilder he knew, not even turles, black or raditz could hit that hard; the saiyan elite now using this battle as a benchmark to see where he stood saiyan to saiyan, they were on the same power level, close to equal footing but only time would tell the winner.

Well, at least Middy would take this seriously. That was honestly the best part for Shaoran, as he pointed was struck with a leg that held similar power to his own. "Ngh," he grunted, but his natural toughness was something that Middy was not ready for. His words meant nothing to the Saiyan as he slammed the other to the ground, and as Shaoran had the light lull in battle, he jumped back. That gave him just enough time to see the other Saiyan come for him, but that would be when Middy found that he made a mistake. "I was not paid by anyone but the Saiyan Empire for being one of Her soldiers!" Shaoran snarled as he snagged the other's arms and pulled him into a punch that struck him in the face, against the scouter against his eye in a counter. That was when Middy would feel the difference between them. Shaoran was strong, he was fast, and he was tough. All points for a Saiyan, things that all natural born Saiyans should have. He followed this up as he stayed within Middy's personal space, as he threw his elbow to strike at the Saiyan's face again, as he snapped, "Don't be fooled by mere appearances. I may have been stuck as a Second Class Saiyan, but that just means that I've had to train harder than anyone else. I returned to Vegeta a year ago, and I've worked my ass off." There was no pause in his attacks, however, as he followed his elbow with another ki-infused punch, this one was the Heat Phalanx technique that their ki taught, only enhanced. This one burned like fire, as the Saiyan then pulled his left hand to his mouth. "Ragh!" He puffed out, and from his puff fired out a massive fireball, something that was not able to be Kiai'd or Deflect away. If this was Naruto, it'd have been at least a B class fireball. He jumped back then, as he pulled himself into the stance that'd give him an advantage in their next exchange, as he pulled his arms to his sides, with his legs spread apart as he glared at the Saiyan. "Think with that brain of yours, Middy! Do I even fight like that other guy?" That was clear from this. There were no tricks, no sword, and no eyepatch. His power soared then as his aura flared to life, yellow as any Saiyan that had access to the Super Saiyan forms, but he didn't activate their elevated state just yet. But this just gave further proof that the Saiyan was a true blooded one. "I may be forever Second Class, but you shouldn't discount my efforts. I'll always push myself to go higher and higher." Middy would have to deal with Shaoran at his full power in base until he found the next opportunity to actually transform. 483 / 1,201 Counter SA Burning Heat Phalanx Fireball Power Up

Middy was now getting overtaken with shots from the saiyan soilder. From what he was seeing from the young soilder it looked like he was more of a first class soilder then second class, the way he carried himself as well as the heart behind his attack and the passion of a true soilder in his voice and the way he moved was showing Midnight the same thing he was shown about Kaine: Ramk means nothing without heart. He now got his 'touch' on Shaoran's elbow, bone on bone as it was a death punch he threw. "This is more interesting by the minute!" An elbow and then a hard punch collide but the punch was then caught and with a grunt, he tanked the attack with his palms and fingers; callassed as crane arts he learned from a earth trainer.
"You don't know me shaoran, i left here after i worked my ass off from boot camp to right now!" He now stood and transmuted the energy of the fireball, now gaining a body shield of flames about his body, thus was the benifit flame shield. He now got ready to go on the attack, powering up then with great thrust, shot straight forward using powerfly with a flying javolin kick which was a titan lvl attack.

It seemed that Middy had a bit of a masscistic streak to him, though the Saiyan was sure that this was just how the Saiyans felt when they put their lives on the line. The true Second Class warrior put up great efforts against an enemy that had many advantages against him: armor and accessories, along with the potential of items. But it seemed that Middy was more than honorable about this, as he had yet to utlize anything beyond his fists and body thus far in their skirmish so far. "I would hope that you did take an interest, but that won't stop this trial," he replied calmly.
"Just boot camp, huh? Child's play." Shaoran had been a soldier for over ten years now, be it in the employ of the Saiyan Army or the Paladins. He merely referenced his latest return to the planet. Middy rushed him straight on, and the Saiyan sighed as he pushed off of the barrier that had been place around the two. His body flickered in and out of sight for those that were not able to truly see Middy and Shaoran's level of speed, but he was sure that Middy could tell that he had just haired him out on speed here with a much faster movement ability used. He dodged the kick as he pushed his arms onto the other's leg, before he smiled.
Middy was at least worth his title of Elite, even though he had transmuted an attack that had no ki behind it. "Nor do you know me that well." The fire didn't seem to phase Shaoran at all, or at least that's what he lead on. He had trained within the Fire Temple, so this damage was even less than Middy would have hoped for. He spun around on the Saiyan Elite's own leg as he aimed to strike him in the head with a powerful kick before he snagged for him leg, and if successful, he spun around and around as he roared his power to life and threw Middy towards the ground, if he'd grabbed him successfully in the first place.
"I will admit, you are a tough warrior. But you have to take blows to hand them out, Middy. Otherwise you are just delaying defeat." He landed after his combination with ease as he allowed his body to be taken by his most trained form, the Elevated Super Saiyan. No ki aura rolled off of him, as this version of the state seemed even more powerful than the normal version. His training with the Celestials had paid off, along with his last natural gift of pure power in his transformations. "No. More. Games."

Midnight was now going to show this second class saiyan soilder...no this warrior that called himself shaoran what a true elite can do. He now saw her come in with his saiyan eyes as well as feeling vibrations in the air around him that the man came in with a heavy kick and he rose his intercepting arm and grounding the impact it came in pretty hard.
BOOM! Middy now took the kick on his intercepting arm and broke tke ground underneath him for preforing a physical grounding method, the whole area around him for a 8 feet in diameter cracked and exploded from the force he pushed down. "This is just another day on the job and i'm older than you and with age comes!" He now saw him come in and manuvered around then attempted to preform a mule kick to the very left flank of the warrior, such was the way of saiyans.
"Very well fellow saiyan solider, i'll show you mine. HAA!" Instantly he was in refined super saiyan, stronger than he was previousy and stared at the saiyan then shrugged "When ever your ready."

Well, he certainly had enough skill to try to nullify some of his attacks, but Middy still didn't attack them. Shaoran rolled his shoulders as he looked at the Saiyan as he raised his own form, a Super Saiyan form that he really didn't know much about. However, his form was trained over many, many years. Age didn't matter in anything but a Saiyan getting closer and closer to retierment. He just tilted his head. "You really don't know how old I am, do you?" Shaoran might look young, but that was just how Saiyans were. But he supposed that this worked in his favor.
Nor did the Saiyan really care much about his "day on the job" comment. As Shaoran saw, he just wanted to get information out of him. Well, it was about time that they resumed this match, so Shaoran hunkered down and launched at Middy, as one leg flung out like a kick, aimed at Middy's chest, but if he tried to evade or just block, he'd encounter a blue after image instead, as Shaoran stopped just short of actually striking Middy as he instead launched many energy blasts right in his face as the dirt skid marks still roiled in the air.
But he was not nearly done yet, as the Saiyan engaged once more with his Burning attack, as he punched at Middy with a lariat, as he rushed at him with is arm outstretched to catch the other by the throat, this one charged much like the light delay he'd given before the Renzoku Energy Dan. "Still got any questions for me? I know you want to ask me about that being that you saw. The one with the eyepatch, right? You could have started with that and not put us through any of this, ya know?
Then again, we are Saiyans," he added at the end with a grin. Though this was a trial, he guessed that they could entertain the crowd a bit more. The charged attacks he had used were not all that lethal. Not yet. He was not here to murder Middy, but to tire him out to show his resolve and innocence in the mater.

Midnight now was getting his shit dealt with. King kai now spoke in his mind, (Underestimate much? I thought you'd learn your lesson from your fights with halycon not to underestimate your opponent, now your getting a dose of the bad news because your too afraid to present shaoran with the good news....get it together man, i got odds on you and queen aqua is going to triple down!)
Midnight now nodded and then saw the incoming attack and stood there and took it, a strong sonicboom was heard and a strong shaking sensation was felt from the kick he braced his chest to take. He then smiled and turned to Shaoran. "I'll take the remaining 10 kicks,"
He said as he shot his right hand forward and discharged a mastered lvl power blast to the very center of Shaoran's pectorials, him being a MAN, as the saiyan warrior took the strike his endurance and constitution inscriptions allowing him to take such a damaging blow.
But as he fired his attack, it went through an afterimage which suddenly he was being peppered with energy blasts at his face, using his speed, he placed up his shield and began to block the barrage of blasts, the recoil he was feeling caused alot of anger and fustration, now running forward while covering up with the shield then with power fly now attempted to ram him with his power, he was getting in close and it looked like he was going to get a 'touch' on him only for a Burning Heat Phalanx to strike the shield, the power midnight felt behind that attack was next to scary, he took the strike on the shield and kept going forward, <I'm going to do it! I'm going to cancel out her attack!> The attack was overtaxing and Midnight held his ground until a large KABOOM was heard, smoke took over the room, and as well the room shook... Midnight now appeared above the saiyan and he hurled down his shield like a boomerang to the top of the head in an attempt to make an opening and if she moved, a hard ki infused straight kick would be launched to the solar plex to let the saiyan warrior on trial know that Middy was still in this and wasn't going to hold back nor back down from this warrior, he was a fellow soilder however so he had to show his A-Game.

Shoran smiled then, as Midy finally understood. This little match turned out to be a lot more interesting as the Elevated Super Saiyan Shaoran watched the shield flew down towards him. It wasn't enough, really, but he did appreciate the offer of an attack beyond the throwing of hands. He moved forward towards it with a hard jumped as he punched right through the attack, his yellow hair blew in the wind as he used equal power behind it with his strength. This was likely the lesson that he took from Lilim, his former mistress. Strength to conquor all, and he had more than enough control to equal it by touch, so long as the stregth was under his own.
As he landed, the Saiyan saw the next attack with his precognition, a strike to his solar plexus, but this time he took the attack. The other Saiyan was relative to Shaoran, so the blow was rather painful. "Nngh...well, this much pain is to be expected without any armor..." His smile never left his face as he pushed back the kick from his chest, however, in his stubborn show of defiance. A bruise mark appeared on his bare chest as he said calmly, "Still. I'm glad that I get to use my full power against someone that understands effort for power."
What Middy didn't understand was Shaoran's mind set. They were warriors, in a warrior race, and so the Saiyan would not back away from this challenge. The judge looked like he wanted to say something, but he likely recognized the look in Shaoran's eyes. He was calm, yet the thrill of battle rang out around him. The sensations and vibrations of fists on impact, the taste of dirt and grime on his tongue. The sounds of the arena. They all stood there, bare to the world as the two Saiyans fought. "You've shown me your resolve, Middy. What else ya got?" He wiped blood away from his mouth from that previous blow. Even without armor, his natural toughness showed the other Saiyan that he wouldn't go down easily.

The Saiyan Elite now was standing hard,not even breathing hard,he put his right wrist forward and using telekenesis he summoned his annointed shield back to him when it was deflected away. "Hrm, not bad Shaoran, you have my respect as a fellow operative in the business." The judge spoke serious, "Now we know about your time in the saiyan empire but also, after looking over the scans of you, we know your not affiliated with the space wolves since that where the poison came from. Also there was a mistake, we thought you were using a method to make two of yourself but it seems we have two seperate people. There's you and there's an assassin cyborg which looks like you minus one fact, it has an eyepatch and you don't."
Midnight frowned. "I HATE WHEN THEY DO THIS shaoran! They do this to everyone... they send you to do a job and its a trap or your a diversion or someone blows the whistles or it's in this case a set up! A damn good soilder who fights with more resolve and pride than any elite in the empire is being framed! I will personally request for this man to be put under consignment, jail time isn't going to do anything except make Shaoran wanting to purge all saiyans when and if not even when, 'if' he gets out, saiyan jail isn't a fun place and this warrior from what you've seen fights as a saiyan soilder first and a renegade contractor second. If he can stand against me naked and perform like this then why not hear him out, he's one of us who aged out.... technically he's a Non Commisioned Officer in rank but an elite in battle experience. So lets give him a chance to explain what his involvement was and who knows, we might find out something useful about the whole situation." He said to Shaoran, and the judge. Saiyan court was different then earth court. More dangerous and serious.... "All i ask is for this fellow saiyan soilder to have a fair trial. No fluff or bullshit." He said coldly and sincerely to the saiyan law and order. Middy was happy to see that this 2nd class soilder was so strong and such a good combattant, he wanted this man to talk, he wanted the one who sent shaoran here only to be fucked over. He hated operations like that, made dead soilders and jeperadises officers....

Shaoran looked up at the judge with a very plain expression, as the man placed a hand to his chin. Yes, Shaoran did not fight like a coward, the whole court could see that. He didn't flee from Middy, and Elite soldier. Even if Shaoran was just Second Class, the joke about him being the forever second class shouldn't have really meant much. He was a soldier, first and foremost, for the Empire. He didn't hold back against the Elite, who most Second Class warriors would have folded to much faster. The judge had a lot to think about, but it seemed that Middy's request made more of a difference than he might have thought it would, "Considering how well the man fought against you... I believe that I will hear what he has to say for himself. A Super Saiyan with the power to match your refined state is something to behold in the first place. As stated, Tako does not wear an eyepatch, and we can see that he does not need one. He has the scars to prove that he's fought his whole life, at least since he first joined this Empire. So go ahead, Super Saiyan. Tell this court why you should not be confined to the Saiyan jails." The Saiyan in question looked betwen them, and then for the first time he smiled over at the judge. The battle pause had given him a bit more clarity as he zoomed out of it an he placed his hand on his hip. "First of all, I offer into evidence that Crime Boss Taco is at least still 'round. I believe I wouldn't have helped those Ginyu Squad goons without alerting the Empire's soldiers. At the same time, I also fought against them in order to stall them out. Even a second class warrior can do his or her duty without much complaint when they have a mission handed down. Secondly, what Middy fought used to a part of me. I was once almost killed while a child. My adoptive Earth father was forced to make me a cyborg to save my life at that time. The reason that he looks so much like me is that he was once me. The split happened about eight years ago. We've fought on an' off since then. It's only been recently that he's went after my reputation. Why, is an answer I can't give ya." He nodded towards Middy as he crossed his arms, "Consignment I can agree to. Just have me stay in the Second Class or send me to Valhalla to train again." It was there that he allowed the Elevated form to all off, as his hair went from golden to brown again. The judge placed his hands on the desk as he laced his fingers together in thought. His gaze turned to Middy as he asked, "Hmm. How does that sound to you, Middy? We send him back to Valhalla so that he can be trained hard once more by Master Luther?" It was forced time away from the planet, but it was better than prison. A far better "punishment", since someone needed to be punished. Shaoran looked satisfied with that. Unbeknownst to those here, he was actually good friends with the master from a long time ago. 2,920

Middy was more than pleased with the verdict but still however kept his resolve, it was a serious fight, they both went all out, even though and Middy thought that Shaoran was holding back some of his power as was the jet black haired saiyan warrior. He really got a good run for his money today, this saiyan soilder was seasoned as he was seasoned as an elite, he could have gone up to super but he wanted to build his foundation and stayed elite and got strong.
"Work ethic, loyalty to one's own character and having rolemodels is why Shaoran is the way he is. He's a soilder, he took the court martial and didn't try to escape, no one came after him to get him out of this court martial, the ginyus are a threat to the saiyan people and he didn't run, he did his job while i was poisoned, so consignment is a very fitting punishment, the real torment is going to be training under saiyan's teachers, coaches, sensei's and instructers. It won't be easy shaoran but you won't be second class forever, before long you'll be first class with a battle group to command in time. It's gonna be difficult for you, with the power you have, taking orders from someone who's weaker or less experieneced... it happens."
He turned to the judge, "Thank you very much for having me here in this day where one of our own fellow saiyan soilders earned the liberty of respect, by fighting like a true saiyan warrior, not begging or cry for mercy. It was a proud day for the saiyan people.
