Opherla had finished sparring with Serena as she promised to meet up with her in the future to help them both train. But deep down, Opherla knew just Serena wouldn't be good enough. She needed more sparring partners.
One thing was for certain, deduced by Serena and Opherla both... Opherla was a Saiyan. There was no denying that now. As Serena told her, Saiyans loved to fight, and from their recent spar, Opherla definitely shared that love to fight. So... it was time to no longer run from the label. She was a Saiyan. But by God she was proud of it! She was proud she had a proper identity now, instead of just being confused about why she was called a Saiyan! She remembered the note... go to Planet Vegeta when she was ready... She would go there, when she was stronger. For now, it was time to pursue her some other sparring partners.
But, first off? The morning workout. Opherla headed off to the outskirts of West City, where she began her morning workout and combat training. Opherla had to admit, she had a lot more pep in her step after her spar with Serena! She must be getting a lot stronger already!
"At this rate, no evil's gonna be able to stop me! I just gotta keep going!" Opherla said with newfound confidence and energy as she kept self training, smiling as she was doing so. At long last, she could finally tap in to her latent power!

As of now, this was probably the closest Acsull had ever been to the massive human cities, the outskirts. Even here, where the massive tendrils of civilization had begun to taper off, they were still FAR LARGER than any village Acsull had ever seen back home. The (oddly) green grasses of the planet were paved over in a stone-like surface they refer to as "concrete", buildings taller than any trees, reaching higher than most cliffs sprouted from the center. If observed from above, one might see the city as one giant immovable creature, the humans inside of it, the cells, the buildings, the ridges of its flesh. For a man such as him, the noise of a thing simply existing drilled into his ears, like a million insects singing their song together all at once. He couldn't imagine how the humans stood being around it, a million pairs of feet marching, a hundred thousand buildings humming with their "electricity," a thousand vehicles rumbling as they moved...
...He wondered if the humans would have seen the serene silence of his world as something just as alien as he saw theirs, perhaps amused by the pallet swap of the sky and the grass. It was an interesting thought. Regardless, that thought would be interrupted as a female, he believed, wandered past him, chanting to herself! She... was human, yes? He had to assume so given her general body shape and hair-color but... her ears... they were poking out of the top of her head and were... animal-like? The Namekian couldn't help but stare in wonder as the woman passed, more intrigued with the subtle differences in HER form than the other obviously not-human aliens that flitted about the cities.
"Excuse me." Acsull began, reaching out to place a hand on her shoulder. "...Could you explain to me... what you are?" Acsull would then pause, realizing how that might come off as some kind of insult. He elaborated. "...I couldn't help but notice that peculiar set of ears you possess. I believe they resemble what you Earthlings call 'cats' yes? Yet I have seen no humans with such features. I am... intrigued." If the woman stopped to acknowledge him, Acsull extend his hand to her, mirroring the (seemingly) common greeting humans partook in.
"My name is Acsull. What is yours?"

Opherla had finished her little workout session and was ready to start looking for sparring partners by the time Acsull arrived. She didn't sense his ki whatsoever, heck, she had zero way to really sense him at all. So, she was oblivious to him as she hummed a little tune, what Acsull thought of as 'chanting.' When his arm touched her shoulder, it was enough to make Opherla jump.
"WAH!" Opherla exclaimed as she jumped and turned around, seeing Acsull before her... wow. He was... green. Very... very green. Still, Opherla didn't feel threatened by him, only startled as she shook her head at him. "Please, walk up to me face to face next time if you want to meet me."
Opherla would then hear him ask what she was. Was this gonna be the pattern now? Every new person jumpscares her then asks her what she is, then asks her name? Ugh... might as well get used to it. However, Opherla could properly answer that question this time. "I, sir, am a Hybrid. A Beastfolk at heart, and a Saiyan in will. Most people have called me a Saiyan, but they're only half right, as you can tell." Opherla explained.
Acsull then called her ears 'cat' ears, which infuriated Opherla as she pouted. "They're not cat ears! They're wolf ears! Broader, fluffier, softer! You aren't from around here, are you?" Opherla asked as she noticed his troubles with Earth greetings and speech. Opherla sighed and shook her head a bit with a smile.
"I'm Opherla. It's nice to meet you, Acsull."

Apparently, there were nuances to human greetings that Acsull had yet to master. It seemed as if approaching someone from behind was considered an affront, something to avoid lest he risk offending someone he merely wished to greet. The Namekian grimaced at this. He had seen other humans do something similar, touch the back of another individual to get their attention, then extend a hand in some kind of greeting gesture. Was this not universal? Did this planet have certain circumstances in which some greetings were acceptable and others were not? If this was the case, Acsull was going to get very confused very quickly...
...And what was more, he seemingly identified those ears as those of an incorrect creature. Her ears... were those of a "wolf..." whatever those were. How embarrassing. Well, this interaction was going through all kinds of interesting phases, wasn't it? Even moreso that the wolf-girl-hybrid noticed how... confused Acsull was, correctly assuming that he wasn't from around here. Slowly, the Namekian nodded, introducing herself... but shaking his hand. Slowly, the Namekian allowed his arm to fall by his side, offering something of an awkward smile to the girl.
"Yes, well... If it wasn't obvious, I would've been concerned for you... Opheria, was it...? My name is Acsull and I come from Planet Namek." The namekian glanced down at himself, as if gesturing to the obvious. Green skin, lined arms, muscle-pads? Acsull imagined he stood out to people like her, even if it seemed absolutely bog-standard to himself. Perhaps she was just being polite?
"I am curious... You are part sayain, yes...? Would that happen to be the origin of your remarkable battlepower?" Acsull understood Sayains to be some of the most naturally gifted warriors in the universe paired with being some of the most dedicated training types. Often, it was the pair of these attributes that lead to fearsome battlepowers so he assumed the same applied to her. "...If I could make a request of you... Would you, perhaps, spar with me? I wish to test myself against you."

Namek? Planet Namek? Opherla didn't have a clue what that planet was. Regardless it confirmed her suspicion that this guy wasn't exactly native to Earth. Opherla may have to give ol' Acsull here some pointers then. Regardless, he seemed to be very respectful... or at least, he was trying to be. Opherla definitely respected him for trying as hard as he was.
However, then he suddenly asked about her latent power as a Saiyan. Opherla nodded her head to this question, she figured the reason she was so strong was because she was a Saiyan. She may not know the quirks or how being a Saiyan worked, but she at least knew that it was the reason why she was as strong as she was.
Then came the question about sparring, and Opherla's eyes lit up at the suggestion. Yes, another sparring partner! Just what she was looking for! She couldn't waste this chance! "Yes, Acsull, I would be happy to spar with you. We can do it here in this open field. No one will get hurt and no one will bat an eye to you and I duking it out." Opherla said with a smile as she nodded with eagerness to her tone. She was so excited! Two new sparring partners! In such a short period of time! This was the best week in her life!

"My thoughts exactly." Acsull commented glancing at their surroundings. There were some buildings poking their heads over the horizon but, so longs they kept their enthusiasm in check, they shouldn't endanger anyone. The girl seemed excited, at least... Perhaps this would end much more amicably than that majin creature...
Acsull dropped into his defensive stance, taking a moment to observed Opheria. The power coming off of her was greater than his own, that much was clear. In any straight up battle going head-to-head, it would only be a matter of time until he tasted defeat. If he was going to get anywhere with this one, he was going to have to play it smart. Acsull would make the first move with a surprise attack, his antenna sparking before shooting out twin electric shocks at the woman's feet! If they connected, she would be encompassed in an aura of shocking voltage threatening to sear in with continuous energy shocks! If she dodged, the sparks would hit the ground, arching across its surface a short distance before dissipating, leaving behind only scorched grasses and soil where the woman once stood!
Either way, that was only part one of the Namibian's attack, Acsull suddenly vanishing from sight before reappearing behind the girl, hand straightened into a chop! He would bring his hand down sharply towards the girl's neck, aiming to strike it and take her down for the count in one fell stroke! One might call such a tactic "dishonorable," a tactic that didn't allow for any response from the opponent... But wasn't that what fighting was about? Namek had seen more than enough disasters to know that threats were not to be taken with a soft hand. You did not humor those that wished you harm lest they actually achieve their goal. Combat to a Namekian should be about taking the initiative and scoring a victory as quickly as you could and so... Acsull would follow his creed.
...Whether or not it worked, however, remained to be seen!

Opherla took her own stance, which was more of a balanced brawler stance as she was prepared to get this spar going with Acsull. Acsull had made the first move without Opherla even questioning who would strike first, as she jumped back from seeing the electricity sparks. She wasn't about to become fried wolf on the Namekian's menu!
However, she suddenly noticed Acsull had disappeared. This was a classic technique that Opherla had used before, a way to get behind her opponent. And so, she knew just how to avoid a potentially one shotting move.
"Daiyō!" Opherla yelled as Acsull didn't chop Opherla's neck... instead, he chopped in half a collectible cat plushie, as its fuzz flew everywhere from Acsull's chop, almost as if he had murdered it with savage tearing!
Opherla was now behind Acsull, trying to go for a quick series of triple kicks to Acsull's backside! If they worked, the force of the kicks would send Acsull flying backwards, if they didn't, Acsull could likely block or dodge them, while Opherla could jump back just in case Acsull tried to counter.
With whatever spacing she had, depending on if it came from her offensive kicks or her defensive retreat, Opherla would form ki over her claws and grind them together before unleashing: "Sajīkurō!" Opherla yelled as she unleashed an X pattern ki slash that shot towards Acsull at fast speeds!

Little did Opherla know, Namekians didn't consume any bio-matter, cooked or otherwise, to sustain themselves!... But more importantly, the girl was far more crafty than Acsull had given her credit for! All was going according to plan at first, Opherla jumping over his antenna-beams with remarkable grace and agility. However, when he moved behind her to go for the chop, the INSTAND his hand would've connected with her neck, the wolf-girl DISAPPEARED, replaced with some kind of... thing...? A toy...? Do they make toys for children that large on this planet...? Regardless, the Namekian's hand SLICED right through it as if it were nothing but air, stray cloth and stuffing flying all over the place as the poor thing fell apart!
"What...?" Acsull grunted, staring down at his hands now covered in fuzz. "...What did she do- AUGH!" Suddenly, three sharp kicks NAILED the Namekian down his back, the green man FLYING forwards before thrusting a hand towards the ground, using it and his momentum to flip himself back to his feet, facing his opponent! However, before he could mount an effective counter-attack, Opherla was already charging up the next stage of her offense! Shouting a word that the Namekian could barely make out, the woman sent an 'X' shaped energy-blast his way, RIPPING across the ground at frightening speeds! Acsull gasped in shock before crossing his arms over his face, doing letting out a YELL of pain as the energy washed over him... and EXPLODED!
...For a moment, all was quiet and still within the cloud... BEFORE AN ELONGATED GREEN ARM SHOT OUT FROM WITHIN! If he had managed to catch Opherla by surprise, the arm would GRAB hold of her arm and DRAG her in, RIGHT into a fist aimed to SLAM UPWARDS into her stomach!

Opherla had him now! The distraction plus the attack from behind nailed Acsull perfectly! On top of that, her X pattern ki attack hit dead on! Opherla fist pumped at how well that worked out for her! She just needed to follow up once Acsull came out.
Or... not. Suddenly, she saw the green limb extending out of the smoke as she yelped, getting grabbed and drug to the smoke and then was SMASHED by the punch to the stomach, as Opherla was sent flying backwards from the punch!
"Kyaaargh!" Opherla exclaimed in pain before she stopped, shaking her head as she charged up ki. "Eat... THIS! DADADADADA!!!!" Opherla yelled as she unleashed a SALVO of ki blasts into the smoke cloud Acsull was in, hoping to pepper him with multiple shots of heated ki!

Acsull's fist DRILLED into the girl's stomach, a great deal of the Namekian's strength expended in the task! The cloud of dust EXPLODED with the impact of the punch, bursting out a small clearing of clarity amongst the clouds, allowing the wolf-girl to see her opponent! Long diagonal lines of burns arched along Acsull's skin where he had blocked her 'x'-like attack, thin purple lines of blood ebbing from the wounds. Had he a moment of rest, such damage would have been easily repaired. Namekian regeneration considered limb-damage of this level trivial... however, it was not time-effective. Unlike Majin who could regrow entire organs exceptionally quickly and, seemingly, without much issue, Namekians had to actively force their bodies into regrowing lost body-parts... and it was an exceedingly painful process.
Acsull wouldn't be so lucky, however, as Opherla took his attack in stride! Quickly recovering from that gut-scrambling punch, Opheria unleashed a rapid barrage of energy blasts Acsull BARELY had enough time to defend himself against! Pulling his arms back, Acsull's hands moved in a blur, swatting aside blast after blast as they came in! Each blast, though, felt like swatting aside an IMMENSELY heavy object, as if humans were asked to swat aside BOWLING BALLS thrown at the speed of baseballs! Gradually, the Namekian began to slow as the exertion of his defense had started to build, a blast slipping past his guard and SLAMMING into his chest! Acsull let out a harsh grunt of pain before his own mouth dropped open, firing a quick energy-blast from deep within his throat, hoping to NAIL Opherla in her own chest, perhaps even stunning her out of her barrage!
If Acsull had been lucky enough to manage this, the Namekian would LUNGE for the wolf-girl seemingly in a straight shot... before springing HIGH, raising his knee to SMASH into her upper jaw and send her flying into the air! Should this connect, Acsull would SHOOT out a hand to grab Opherla by the collar of her shirt before WRENCHING her down, aiming to slam her FACE DOWN in the dirt like a judge might his gavel!

Opherla's eyes widened the moment she saw Acsull batting away her ki blasts almost as if it was nothing! Opherla watched in awe as Acsull pulled off such an incredible feat! Although, only for a few moments, as Acsull was being battered by the ki blasts mercilessly! But then, he opened his mouth and fired... a blast of ki!? Opherla was completely caught off guard, as she was indeed NAILED by the attack!
Opherla had recovered from the initial blow, though, the ki blast didn't hurt as much as Opherla really expected it to. Regardless, she skidded to a halt from the Namekian's blow. She had to admit, she and Acsull were a lot closer in power than she previously had been led to believe! But, that wasn't the important part right now, what was important on making sure she and Acsull could properly gain strength from this sparring session.
Opherla was helpless as Acsull KNEED her in the jaw! Opherla was sent spinning and hurtling as she flew up into the air, before she managed to stabilize a bit, and caught the Namekian's follow up attack, a hand that had aimed right for the collar of her shirt! Well, she didn't even have a shirt, that perv had been aiming right at her bra, and that, well, that was a big no-no.
"Sorry, Acsull, but it's rather inappropriate to shoot your hand at a woman's top, even if I had been wearing a shirt!" Opherla said as she would flip the script, and drag Acsull to HER instead of the other way around, before she SMASHED his face with a hefty, ki enhanced right hook! Should it connect, Acsull would be sent SOARING through the air, and the moment he stopped, he would be met with Opherla once again, as she was now in blitz mode, blitzing him with red aura slashes from her claws, as she sped around him on all angles in all attacking directions, before she then stuck her palm out.
"Lycanshoto Secret Technique! Ryunotsume!!!" Opherla yelled as she fired the ki blast from her single palm, as the shot COATED Acsull with painful ki energy that was angled right for the ground! Should Acsull be unfortunate to be caught in this devastating one-two combo, one very well might say this would be the coup de grace of the sparring match!

...Acsull was confused. He was under the impression that males and... females on this planet were considered equal. Is this yet another nuance that the young Namekian Guardian had yet to master? Was there some kind of taboo unique to the female experience that made grappling of this nature somehow... inappropriate to the situation? Opherla claimed that to be the case... and made him PAY for it! As his hand LOCKED around her top, Opherla took advantage and used it as leverage, LIFTING and PULLING him toward her before the girl SMASHED him in the face! Between his own confusion as to what he'd done wrong and that skull-rattling blow, the wolf-girl had all the time she needed to gather the energy for her secret technique!
"Urgh..." Acsull grunted, opening his eyes... only to see a ki-charged claw arching toward his face! It was all the Namekian could do to cover himself, tuck his body and head behind his arms and legs as the woman's assault BORE DOWN ON HIM FROM ALL DIRECTIONS! Every time it seemed like Acsull was getting a grip on Opherla's position, she would disappear AGAIN and reappear at a different angle! She was coming at him, it felt like, a hundred blows a minute... and it was all he could do to shield himself from them all!
...And just when he thought it was over...
"WHAT!?" He gasped as a massive energy wave enveloped him! "RAAAAAAAHHH!" Acsull roared as he CRASHED down into the ground, carried by Opherla's blast!
...When the dust cleared, Acsull lay still upon the ground, his eyes clenched shut, his green skin marred from burns and bruises!
"RRrr...gh..." He groaned weakly before flicking an eye open... and chuckling. "...You... are quite formidable, aren't you...?"

Opherla huffed a bit as she folded her arms, still a bit ticked about Acsull tugging her top. "You got a lot to learn about Earth if you think you can just tug on a woman's top like that, Acsull." Opherla stated with clear irritation. "So crash course on women and their chest. A woman's chest is an elegant art design, created on their bodies as alluring devices for men. Of course, men a lot of times are greedy for our chest and get a little grabby. They never learned to just look at art, and not touch, so, we women put on clothes over our chest to keep from having our elegance abused by the greed of the male species. But of course, men still couldn't get enough! So when a man tugs a woman's top, that usually means he wants to take it off in a greedy manner, and abuse our elegant art! It's so insulting to the point we refuse to ever show our art again! Only to men who truly earn our respect do we show our chests to, and only if they promise to treat our chests right! And that is why I got pissed at you for grabbing at my top!" Opherla exclaimed.
Opherla hoped that at least helped Acsull understand that women's chests were meant to stay hidden underneath clothing. She tried approaching it from a perspective the Namekian would understand, as opposed to just making him more confused about what she may have meant. Still, she sighed and looked down at Acsull as he commented about her formidability.
"I wish I was formidable. To tell you the truth, Acsull, I pale in comparison to a lot of warriors on this planet. That's why I train. That's why I spar. If I falter for a moment in my training, then it ultimately leads to me falling behind when threats lurk around this planet. I can't allow those threats to get too far ahead." Opherla said as she descended down. "Still, I'm glad to know I have a sparring partner who's about even with me. Some of your punches hurt me good!" Opherla admitted. "You just... yeah, need to learn the customs of this planet... I'll teach you what I know if you'd like." Opherla added with a soft smile.
She couldn't stay mad at Acsull long. Even if he DID almost get a free look at her breasts from tugging her top. But he was new to this planet so why be mad at him for too long? She only hoped her crash course stuck with him. FIRMLY.

So, Opherla would make it a point to help Acsull learn the customs of this planet, in any manner or way she could. Picking him up and dusting him off, Opherla would begin a quick crash course on a little course she called:
"How to Not Get Punched in the Face on Earth 101: Opherla's Guide to Earth Life."
...Okay, the title needed some work but, hey, it was a start. That's what matters the most, right? More importantly, Opherla had made a new friend and a new sparring partner all in one day!
