An hour after he had left, Bruss' ship landed right in the Hercule City area of the planet. Stepping out of the pod, he looked around, not very impressed with the scenery that had surrrounded him. "Wow...Well, this place looks extremely pathetic. I seriously wonder how it managed to get this way." Then, walking around, he decided to check the local area, maybe find a way to contact the Resistance people that there on Earth.

Shirin had been through the trials of this strange new Earth for only a couple of weeks now. During that time he'd fought the previous World Martial Arts champion and been told by said champion to train hard and meet him in the finals of the upcoming tournament. That was quite a boast from someone who'd only faced the demons of this world for such a short time. He was far stronger than most, and in light of his recent training he believed he could hold his own. That's why he was bold enough to travel through the badlands. Maybe there'd be more ways to train here. Who knew?
Even in the Badlands, though, he looked out of place. His clothes were weather worn and dirty. They had multiple holes in them from the rough treatment he'd given them recently. To top it off, his outfit itself was a lab coat, dress shirt and jacket, loose slacks, and close white shoes of the style often worn by surgeons. Still, the youthful looking man paid the strange looks and distasteful glares of others aside. No one had said anything to him yet, so he had no need to say anything...or do anything...back to them.

As Bruss walked through the area, he found himself getting deeper into the crowd. Hopefully, noone would notice a certain feature. Then, again, he WAS wearing armor... "Please don't notice, please don't notice, please don't notice..." Then, all of a sudden, someone shrieked, "AHHH, SAIYAN!" Bruss gritted his teeth. "d**nIT!" Then, all of a sudden, he started flying through the air, hopeing noone would get him. Although, there would probably be demons that could take him on in the air...

Shirin stopped for a moment at the sound of a scream. What was this commotion for? He looked up to see a young man wearing a suit of armor flying away. What really caught Shirin's attention, though, was the fact that this young man had a tail. Apparently that tail had brought him into dislike from these people. And a small posse of demons was heading his way from various alleyways and broken buildings nearby. Shirin shook his head. He'd only seen something like this once before. He put a stop to it then, too. It was just a couple of days ago, in fact.
He chuckled under his breath and lifted off into the air. He called out to the young man, "Calm yourself. You don't need to run away from these pathetic peons." The guy might have thought Shirin was off his rocker, and maybe he was right. Shirin's outlook on the world had become more and more twisted the longer he'd been on the surface. The fact that he'd obtained a great power before coming to the surface didn't help his mental state, but he was coping with everything in his own way.
Shirin glared at three of the five demons that had ascended to surround him. The other two from the group were going towards Bruss. Shirin closed his eyes for a moment and sighed, "If you don't crawl back into your holes right now, you're going to regret being alive." Shirin's tone of voice quickly shifted from apathetic to angry. How dare these creatures invade the world he called home and then claim it for their own...and in such a way that there was no rule or structure. There was no longer a feeling of safety even in one's own home in this world. Sleeping at night meant risking everything you owned, including your life. That kind of world...and they had created it....these demons. It made Shirin angry to the center of his being.
The demons around Shirin just laughed at him and prepared to attack. Shirin replied, "Prepare yourselves." And with that, they all rushed him. One made a horizontal kick for his ribs, another aimed a mighty heel at his skull from above, and the third began gathering energy into his right hand, quickly forming a growing orb of ki.
Although there were three of them, attacking someone more than twice your power head on was a foolish error to make. That didn't make it easy for Shirin to beat them, though. He only had two arms and two legs to their total of six arms and six legs. Luckily these demons weren't so bright, so their fighting technique was lackluster at best.
Shirin quickly brought his right arm up and placed his forearm horizontally over his head to block the heel drop. At the same time he caught the kick aimed at his ribs from the other demon that was currently attacking him with his left hand. That posed a problem, though, since the other was working on what appeared to be a pretty powerful attack.

As two Demons went after him, Bruss looked back and saw them there. Turning around, he curled up his fingers, placed both hands facing the same direction on his chest, then, thrusted his hands forward, and, yelled, "GALICK GUN!" Then, he fired a Fuschia-colored wave at one of the demons.

The Demons fighting Bruss didn't seem to consider his somewhat flashy attack a threat. As a matter of fact, they weren't expecting him to attack at all. They assumed he'd run away, defend himself, or just cower in fear like most people had done before them. The one that Bruss had aimed at took the beam head on with a very confused and surprised look on his face as he yelled, "What!?" The other demon growled and continued his rush towards Bruss, swinging a powerful one-two combination followed by a strong horizontal kick.
The two entangled in combat with Shirin quickly jerked their legs back and quickly responded to Shirin's defense with a strong kick from the demon who had previously attempted a heel drop and a fierce punch from the other. Both fists would find no part of Shirin's body to connect with, though. The shimmering image he'd left behind quickly faded as the demons' blows connected with one another where Shirin's head would have been.
Shirin knew that making this move was risky since he hadn't fully mastered flight at such high speeds as those attained by use of the after image. He didn't end up behind his target, which is where he wanted, but he was beside his foe, so that was good enough for now.
Shirin had rushed to one side of the demon that was gathering energy for his attack, and, just after firing off a fairly large orb of ki at each of the two he'd just escaped from, he spun around to build momentum and deliver a vicious roundhouse to the side of the demon's head. It hadn't even noticed that he'd moved until the other demon's attacks had collided. By that time it was too late, too.
Shirin's shoe smashed into the side of the demon's head and turned his head accordingly, sending him flying towards one of the half destroyed buildings that two of the other demons had come from. The energy he'd built up for his attack was lost. He'd spent all that time charging for nothing. That's exactly the way Shirin wanted it.
Meanwhile, at this point, the demon that Bruss had blasted would be recovering out of the small smouldering crater that the blast had left him in. His clothes were nearly torn and burned off, and what remained was singed cloth. The other two demons that Shirin had escaped had refocused their attention on him again and were rushing in to attack again. How would the two warriors make their way out of this predicament? Although these foes weren't smart powerful, they seemed highly durable and tough.
