He had already gotten into the chair, as the cute waitress came over to serve him. After he ordered, he was waiiting for his beverage top be served, a nice sweet-tea blend. In the little shop he found the kind one could get on Earth. 'We serve Earth delicacies in YOUR part of the universe!' read the sign in front of the shop. Raiosu had ordered some Matsusaka beef for himself, deciding to treat himself as he had gotten a small raise on his cost of living wage from the paladins.
Then, a stone from his satchel floated out, into the air as it made it's way to his forehead. Suddenly, there was a small vortex of energy around him, until he finally found his way into his mind, in a realm he came to to fight and hone his skills with others. He hadn't heard from Gosai in a short while, so he decided to pay a visit. He came rushing for him, sword drawn and ready for battle.
"Gosai, it's been too long. I've missed practicing with you. I will give you a moment to ready yourself, as you know why I'm here.

(Human!)
Earth was as lively as ever, Gosai noted. But the human had been dealing with other issues, which had necessarily cut into his training time. Family matters and the legalities of returning from the dead meant that he had been spending significant time merely 'maintaining' his power rather than improving upon it. Well, today that was changing! The youthful martial artist had disappeared into the Diablo Desert for the necessary training excursion and was waiting out a sand-storm in his tent.
With little else to do while he waited, the human's fingers curled around his telepathy gem. "Might as well get some work in, eh?" He suggested to himself.
Almost as soon as he'd materialized into the hazy realm of sparring, he was 'assaulted' by his current sparring partner. The Saiyan fighter "Raiosu", and a grin crossed his features. "Oh, I think I get why we're here." He mused, twisting and stretching out his back. "And I'm glad t'see you. I need to get out of this slump my training has fallen into, and I think you're just the guy to help push me." He declared, before sliding a leg forward, his head tilting down while his fists came up to protect his face...
And like a shot he was off, testing the waters with a couple of quick jabs, but mostly attempting to keep himself close enough that the length of the blade couldn't be as effectively brought to bare.

Raiosu raised his sword upwards, as the punches hit his sword's hilt, bouncing off but still making a strong impact. Raiosu turned around as he performed a low leg-sweep, aiming to throw Gosai off balance just long enough to follow up and strike with a sword slash as he stepped forwards, to reduce the chance of Gosai dodging. He then brought it up to perform a sword-sweep angled down so that it would slash below Gosai's chest area, finishing with a quick knee-kick to his stomach. He then jumped up, into GOsai's trajectory once more as he spun through the air,adding strength to his kick as it might contact him, a powerful dynamite kick that crackled with energy.
"Having fun, Gossai?" He inquired as he jumped backwards, throwing a volley of beam ball energy blasts from his left hand towards the human.
"Might as well enjoy what ya gotta do." Raiosu then held his right palm up to his face, turning his palm forwards towards Gosai.
"Masenko-HA!" Suddenly, a wide, powerful beam fired at Gosai from Raiosu's palm, threatening to engulf him.

Well, the blocking of his punches was honestly what he should should have expected, still he would have liked to see Raiosu pushed back at least a little. He didn't have time to dwell on it, though as the saiyan fighter brought his blade into the match quickly enough, sweeping the weapon towards his legs. Despite the nature of the Astral Realm, the human fighter attempted to jump over it which, unfortunately, left him somewhat open to lower chest slash. The blade cut through his shirt and drew a thin red line of blood along his chest.
"Wow-" He grunted, bringing a grin to his features. "this new VR is really good, huh?" He inquired, bringing both hands down to block the knee at least, even if the momentum of the attack was still enough to project the human's comparatively light body upwards through the air.
Before he could recover from the blow, the martial artist felt the flare of Raiosu's ki behind him, attempted to shift in the air until he was facing the fighter's leg head on with just enough time to utter a short "Craaaap!" before the blow struck hard. Almost immediately his body bounced back off of the 'ground' of the realm, which he used to his advantage, pushing out a short wave of ki, reminded suddenly that he could fly, to push himself out of the way of the incoming balls of ki.
"Okay, that was a good start," He remarked before tapping down lightly, flexing his arms a moment, only to realize that he was being spoken too again... and what was coming at him. Another sudden burst of ki. "...Nuts." The human muttered, bringing his arms before his body in a tight X to block the worst of the ki. While it was still coming, however, he attempted to strafe to the side and launch himself towards the saiyan, targeting his jaw with a suddenly glowing fist.
"Alright, now we're hitting a good stride!" He called out cheerfully, swinging his hand towards Raiosu's jaw.

Raiosu's brow furrowed slightly as his sword swipe hit, watching as a rather small amount of blood splashed. Then, his spinning kick struck true, damaging his foe. As the beam balls flew Gosai jumped out of the way, nimbly dodging Raiosu's first attack ever. Then Gosai decided to take one of Raiosu' most powerful attacks head-on with a block, certain that it would leave the human with quite a bit of damage. Then came the fist to his face, as Raiosu leaned his body to it's right, letting the blow fly through the air, missing it's mark.
Raiosu sheathed his blade. "Let's have some fun with this." Raiosu opened his palm and jumped through the air, as a yellow energy glow in his hand. He then reached out to Gosai, trying to shock him as the palm fluctuate with yellow energy. His hair turned blue.
"Hey Bersimmon, how'd ya like my impersonation of you?"

His arms were certainly dinged up, the sleeves of his shirt more than a little shredded up as well, but the martial artist felt fairly pleased with his attempted offensive, even if his sparring partner handily avoided it. But hey, at least be put the sword away! That was always a good thing in Gosai's book.
"My charming personality isn't enough fun for you?" The human teased, hopping back and shaking out his arms a bit to finish getting the last of the scraps off cloth off and get the blood flowing again. His eyebrow rose in curiosity as he saw the glow about Raiosu's hands caught his attention. "Who's Bersimmon-?" He began to ask, only to realize the trap he'd been lured into as the energy struck him, pulling right... or so it felt at any rate.
"Ookay... this is new-" The martial artist admitted, flexing a bit as he tried to force his body to move.

Bersimmon smiled. "That's for me to know... and you to fight against." He said as he sneered slightly, brushing back a lock of his hair.
"Charming? Are you try'na hit on me? Well, whatever. here." Bersimmon, the dominant personality of Raiosu, walked over to Gosai as he was stunned. Suddenly, Bersimmon began emanating a red aura. It began to emanate faster and faster and faster, until it began to give off a sensation of static charges.
Then a large explosion of chi emanated from Bersimmon's body, red chi spreading outwards. The explosion rang through their area, damaging everything that was too close to Bersimmon, including Gosai as long as he couldn't move.

"Wait, I don't think that's how that saying goes-" Gosai protested towards the pretty boy persona's sneering as the human tilted his head to the side. Appearing relatively content in spite of his situation.
"Oh-" The martial artist blinked at the approaching aura surrounding... Raiosu? Bersimmon? Whatever or whoever he was now. "This isn't gonna end well." He acknowledged, straining against his bindings again as he tried, futilely, to hop away from him. "There's no need to do whatever you're thinking of doing, ya know. How about we just try arm wrestling, instead?"
But, the explosion came, as explosions are wont to do. Finally able to move, Gosai stumbled forward, soot and a few burns covering his form, his shirt now in tatters. All in all, he looked very much like a comical cartoon of a man who'd been caught in an explosion. As he opened his mouth, a puff of smoke even escaped from it.
"Did you order... original recipe... or extra crispy?" He inquired before pitching forward. Half losing his balance and half... well, simply attempting to headbut Bersimmon (or Raiosu?). "I might take a nap, though. If you don't mind..."

"What a waste of a move. You only let me hurt your friend, after all. And besides that, why did Aimee disappear from your psyche when you attained Elevated Super Saiyan?"
"I thought it was we... not me."
"You're thinking too much about friends. I despise that. And so I shall be as brutal as I want. Even if it scares your friends."
"..."
Raiosu's hair turned back to yellow as he quietly approached Gosai once more.
"Arm wrestling would be just fine, actually."
As Gosai attempted to headbutt him, falling as he did, he threw out both arms top catch him.
"I can't help it when I see a human in pain. Even if this isn't real."
He drew his sword and held it high. IT crackled shortly, surrounded by yellow energy. He then lowered it towards Gosai, finally contacting him with it. "Healing Blade." Suddenly, Gosai's wounds vanished as the energy disappeared.
Raiosu held his hand outwards, as if he was offering a handshake. "Do you need a hand up?" ----------- free: take headbutt 1 healing blade

For his part, the human martial artist remained half slumped into his sparring partner's grasp seeming somewhere between comfortable and in excruciating pain... so... mostly comfortable? As he pricked up his ears, though, it seemed as if the saiyan swordsman was having some sort of external-internal dialogue with... himself? A split personality? Something else entirely?
Well, Gosai wasn't exactly a psychologist... so he mostly nodded along with the words he could hear as he debated whether it would be better to continue the match or simply slip him a phone book with a page marked for therapy. Though that might be a little presumptuous, I guess... He acknowledged to himself, only half aware as Raiosu chose to heal the human rather than pummel him further. He chuckled a little as he felt his muscles moving a little more freely.
"Mm... I think I'm okay." Gosai remarked, grinning as he accepted the hand. "Tell ya what... next time we can do the arm wrestling thing. I'm likely to get a little less scorched, ya know? Not that this wasn't fun, mind. Just... something I might wanna wind down from." He acknowledged with a cheerful wink towards the Saiyan Swordsman. "Sound good?"

Raiosu laughed.
"Thanks for the match, Gosai. I just wish I knew even where the heck we are supposed to be right now!" He said with a chuckle.
"I'm going to be applying myself to working for Avalon again. I lost a lot of cred thanks to my irritable laziness. Gotta get back on track with that. Next time I see you, maybe we can stop and get a drink. I hope you like pina coladas."
He smiled at the human. He then put his hand into his stomach and pulled out from seemingly nowhere a ball of pink energy. "I'm not sure what this is, but I've had it there since I left the next dimesnion. Maybe we could see what it is sometime."
"And an arm wrestle sounds fun, too. Sorry, I guess I let my Saiyan blood control me today. Among other things..." He muttered before looking away.
"Anyway, g'bye."
