Opherla would get interrupted from her training in 36X gravity to turn and see Tanya looking in. Opherla could smell the power this girl was exuding, and it only made her excited! Someone showed up, here in the middle of nowhere, so Opherla could spar with her! Even better, the girl wanted to come on in and help Opherla break in her Gravitron!

"You better believe it! Come on in, let's spar for a bit!" Opherla said excitedly at Tanya. Even if Tanya was stronger, Opherla could tell they were much closer in Power as opposed to like, her and Callion or her and Athren, so on and so forth.

"Name's Opherla, what's yours?" Opherla asked Tanya with a smile as she took her stance, looking ready for the two of them to start sparring!

"Nice to meet ya, Tanya!" Opherla would greet back as she took her stance, staring down Tanya. She was excited for this. She might have been a Beastfolk, but she was a Saiyan too! And she was ready to duke it out with a fellow Saiyan in 36 times Earth's gravity! And she was gonna get it started now!

The moment Tanya asked if Opherla was ready, Opherla answered her by dashing right for Tanya and going for a massive left hook, SLAMMING it into Tanya's cheek to begin their sparring session! And Opherla wasn't gonna let an advantage like this go to waste, as she unleashed a massive flurry of blows upon Tanya!

Tanya could tell from the get-go that Opherla was FAST. A Brawler for sure, with how much energy and/or stamina she was focusing into her fists, as Tanya could barely get her guard up before being attacked with even more attacks, kicks and punches of all sorts as Opherla attacked Tanya with her speed and full weight behind every punch, wanting to see just how well she could do against this slightly stronger Saiyan warrior!

Opherla and Tanya hadn't even been going for that long, and Opherla was already enjoying this fight A LOT! She almost didn't want it to stop, but, well, it had to stop eventually, when one of them gave out or stopped fighting. Still, this pure blooded Saiyan was among the best Opherla had met while on this planet, and she was absolutely wanting to be friends with this girl after this fight!

Opherla would have her punch grabbed by Tanya, and avoid the incoming counter punch Tanya would throw, but the kick and flurry of blows MERCILESSLY slammed into Opherla! The wolf Saiyan did all she could to block the incoming blows, but she had to admit, Tanya hit HARD! But Opherla wouldn't just let her get these hits for free! Opherla would start clashing fists and feet with Tanya, the two now starting to properly clash like two warriors in a heated battle!

The Gravitron was holding up nicely, and the gravity plus the weighted clothing was allowing the two girls to fight to their hearts content! They might not be as strong as Earth's mightiest warriors, however, they looked like the mightiest warriors ever with how they were fighting! It was a glorious spectacle to behold! ...Even if there was no audience. But who would care!? They were two Saiyan girls having an absolute BLAST!

Opherla could only smile the entire time she and Tanya were trading blows with one another. This was the best fight Opherla had ever had since the moment she started doing something with her life instead of just winning Earth-level martial arts tournaments for a living! She had always faced foes that were usually way above her. But right here, right now, against Tanya... Opherla was having the greatest, best, most glorious fight of her entire life! Sure, was Tanya stronger than her? Yeah. Was she gonna lose to Tanya? Likely. Did she care? NO!

Opherla didn't care because this was an opponent in her striking range. In her realm of being able to reach. Someone she could aspire as a rival, a proper, full on rival. And Opherla LOVED it. Her eyes fired up at the prospects of just what she and Tanya could do going forward past just this Gravitron fighting session. She and Tanya were close enough that Opherla felt like she and Tanya could go as high as they wanted to against one another. Tanya, as her rival... yeah, yeah that's EXACTLY what Opherla wanted! She didn't just want Tanya as a friend, no, not at this point! She wanted Tanya as a full blown rival that she could aspire to! That she could aim for and overcome! And at the same time, push Tanya in a similar way, so that the two of them could rise as Earth's mightiest Saiyan duo!

It wasn't too much longer before both girls had to stop for a moment and recover their stamina. Opherla had to give Tanya the question now before they started up again, otherwise by the end, Opherla might get too tired to ask or be caught up in the battle so much she would forget her question!

"Hey, Tanya... You're really good." Opherla panted as they took the moment to recover. "And I gotta say, I've had more fun fighting you than anyone else I've come across on this planet. I can tell, you want to protect this planet just as much as I do. But you're not strong enough to do it, at least, not alone." Opherla would blatantly state as she would soon hold out her hand to Tanya with a wide smile. "Whaddya say we become proper training buds? Pushing each other to keep getting stronger and stronger, until we are both strong enough we can protect this planet on our own? Ya know, maybe like a friendly rivalry?" Opherla asked as she looked at Tanya with knowing eyes. "Whaddya say?"

Opherla wasn't exactly sure how Tanya would feel about this preposition. She thought it was a good idea, at least. She just hoped Tanya believed so as well, so that Opherla could at least have someone she could actively seek out and spar with to get stronger and stronger alongside her, day in and day out.

Opherla smiled as she watched Tanya fly away into the distance. Master Roshi, huh? Opherla hadn't heard of the guy before but, he sounded like he was someone reliable to train under, at least, that's what Opherla hoped, and look how far Tanya had come while training under this Roshi guy! She was unbelievable! But what really made Opherla happy was the fact that Tanya was more than willing to become her rival, and Opherla was all the more grateful for that as she watched Tanya leave, as she had a bright smile on her face. Looks like now she had a goal to aspire to, a massive goal to aspire to.

And so, with what time she had left, Opherla would go back to her training in the Gravitron, now understanding that the little trip to Planet Vegeta was gonna have to go on hold for just a little while longer! Now, now she had a rival she needed to match, and a rival she needed to get just as strong as, considering they both wanted to protect this lovely planet they lived on! But as she kept training, Opherla couldn't help but suddenly have flashes in her head of all the people she met when her new journey had begun.

First, there was Serena. What a kind soul she was, a warrior at heart but more than willing to make sure that Opherla would get stronger, and Opherla's very first friend. Acsull. Opherla didn't know where he had gotten off to, but he was a good friend to have around too. Callion. The only one where Opherla had come in contact with him multiple different times. She saw Callion as her idol, someone she wanted to aspire to, and someone she wanted to be like, one day. Athren. Athren may have been rough around the edges but he had his good bits. Hey, he was the entire reason Opherla had these awesome weighted clothes that helped her with her training! Little Terra... Terra was just a big bundle of joy wrapped up in a tiny package that Opherla wanted to protect with everything she had in her body, even if it cost her life, she never wanted anyone to harm that tiny Majin...

And now, Tanya. The closest thing she had to a proper rival. Their power levels, almost the same. One day, one day she and Tanya would stand tall as Earth's greatest and mightiest defenders! Hm... Master Roshi, hm? Opherla just might have to swing by wherever this Master Roshi guy was, and hopefully get accepted as another one of his students. Opherla had to chuckle a bit. She made it this far all on her own... Maybe a Master was what she needed to go even farther.

"Get ready Tanya, your rival is about to become your fellow student! ...I hope." Opherla giggled as she hoped that Master Roshi would accept her like he accepted Tanya.
