Having finished his initial task, Vegeshin set about patting down his attire that had managed to catch fire from the explosive blast of the missile he'd sank. His attention then swiftly fell toward the mercenaries that now surrounded them. As he'd previously thought, the Draconic creature that was now at full capacity alongside him was certainly something to be felt. He could sense the raw capabilities Rynhart could unleash. His attention fell away to Lyssa who'd somehow managed to get caught up in all of this mess and as he witnessed her actions, a sudden grin fell to his lips. A sense of nostalgia once again washed over him as he took time to recollect the past. Another day in Wing City, despite it truly being Westeria. Watching her take her chance at disarming those that had spilled out of the VTOL, his attention snapped next to the sudden appearance of the TNG. Disbelieving eyes narrowed some as they, too, set about surrounding the lot of them.
As the TNG fell into positions that had them surrounding everyone, a dedicated memory knew what was about to take place. The call to disarm. He didn't need to hear it to know it was going to happen. He'd been apart of the Militia. Seen them in action. Knew their course of action. Immediately his hands went up and he'd begun to take a knee just as Rynharts deafening roar was let loose. Unable to prevent the reaction, his hands fled their surrendered position and instead instinctively clasped to his ears as he fell to one knee. He'd been momentarily deafened but it wasn't long before his hearing was regained, his body far from that of a mere human. Seconds after, the impact of steel on steel brought him to crane his neck, his eyes taking in the sight of what had become of the few lowly mercenaries caught in the wake of Rynharts fierce attack. Bodies limp, he watched the shattered glass clatter to the ground before he turned his focus on the hulking giant. Realization struck him, in that very instant, that things wouldn't go as smoothly as he'd hoped.
Hair matted to his face, a hand rose to slick it back as he lingered on his knee. Knowing full well the consequences that were about to take place, due to the assumed knowledge that the TNG weren't just floating in the air, pointing weapons at them, for nothing, he weighed the options. Would he take the path he assumed had been laid out for him, raise his arms, and fall into the routine suspected? Or would he take his chances and do what he could to protect Rynhart and Lyssa? His choice was made for him, though, as the reverberating voice of an unknown entered the surrounding air. Glancing around, he saw the inbound figure. He was large, and unsettling, in appearance. Watching as the atmosphere shifted, a pathway before the lumbering figure clearing, Vegeshin's own eyes narrowed at the words of the individual. There were no cocky retorts initially, and he found his power slowly beginning to unfurl, his Ki reserves rising at a rather steady rate. If what he thought was about to happen...was about to happen, he'd need it as such.
The gravitational increase that had began to take effect was felt on Vegeshin as well, given his proximity to Rynhart, and he felt a slight wobble overcome him in his knee. He'd need to rise. There was no surrendering to the TNG now. Watching as the lampost was pulled from the ground, Vegeshin began to rise in haste. Steel and concrete careened through the air as he rose to his feet, albeit not as swiftly as he would have liked due to the gravitational increase. But it was as he made it to his full height and began to move forward that he was swiftly caught by an inbound car. As it struck him, he was taken along with it before crashing into a diagonally parked bus that had been abandoned amid the citywide panic. Pancaked, he was silent and didn't stir for a moment.
As Lyssa managed to evade and use her inbound vehicle as a springboard, Vegeshin's energy continued to climb at a rampant pace, despite his silence. He'd been wedged between the two constructs, but used this as a front to hide himself. If the individual wasn't aware of his condition, he would be free to collect his energy, and ascend. Rynhart had been enhanced, and Lyssa remained. He could sense them, and figured he'd act now. "Haaaaaaa!" Came the bellowed warcry of a hybrid Saiyan, the car and bus that had contained his figure thrown aside. Blown back, the bus managed to upturn onto its side, skidding along the ground at such a pace as to collide with the barrier the Alteran had erected. The car was flung forward, the force of the transformation shredding it into two, both pieces clattering to the ground before tumbling along the pavement. Golden locks licked the air as clothing fluttered in the sheer winds his transformation had brought to life. Static flickers swaddled his form and his emerald eyes narrowed on the Alteran. He could go toe to toe with the being but he had a far better plan in store. The dome that had been thrown up appeared to prevent any escape as well as interference and that would bode well for what he'd planned.
"You made a big mistake, my friend. Like the misguided fool you are, you need to be taught to play nice the hard way!" He bellowed, fist drawing closed before he threw it out in front of him knuckles down. Lifting it just as swiftly as he'd extended it, two fingers escaped the closed fist, summoning forth a wave of Ki from beenath the Alteran's figure. The ground swiftly began to superheat, glowing a hellish orange and red, transitioning to white, before exploding in a cacophonous, thunderous, roar. The blast radius would more than encompass him, his very figure the epicenter, all the while spreading searing flames and choking smoke throughout the dome.
Vegeshin clear of the event would only suffer the blow back of the attack, as would the others, the soles of his feet skidding back along the pavement as he fought the wall of pure force that had been unleashed. Hair thrown back, he glanced toward either of them, a solemn face depicted in a bid to offer them the notion that teamwork was going to be at hand.
