I was patrolling YouTube when I stumbled across the video "Dragonball Baddie Building - A How To" By MasakoX (who you may know as the voice of TFS Abridged Gohan and Goku). Now, the overall concepts he presented were so intriguing I wanted to flesh them out into a story. And no, this will not become a common theme, as I generally do not do commissions and prefer to generate my own ideas, but that basis given was detailed enough to give an idea of what this character should be like, but open ended enough to give me plenty of room for creativity and originality.
Universe 6
"Kale! How are we supposed to train together if you won't transform?" Caulifla was baring over her protege, while Cabba has taken several steps back; last time Kale transformed here Cabba almost lost his life. Caulifla's expression softens "Come on Kale. I know you can do it. I have a faith in you. You just need to focus." Kale frowns, finger on her chin "But... sis... the tournament is already over. There's no reason for training, is there?" Caulifla folds her arms "That's what you think. I intend on getting stronger and beating old man Goku. And you're going to help me." Kale nods a little "If you insist sis..." She clenches her fist and her hair sways in the breeze generated by her energy. Her hair flashes green and the ground is disturbed by her surge in power. But like pouring a gallon of water on an ember, it's over as soon as it has started.
"I'm sorry sis, I can't. I just... don't feel the need." Caulifla sighs "Well Cabba, I hope you are ready to go again because I'm not leaving here till I reach Super Saiyan 3." Cabba turns Super Saiyan "I suppose." Cabba suddenly becomes alert "You... sense that?" Caulifla nods "Feels like a powerful energy." From behind a boulder walks out a tall frost demon, with grey skin, red body gems and black bioarmor. He has spikes on his wrists and elbows, with long horns on his head and a mask over his mouth. His mask distorts his voice, giving it a demonic infliction "Kale. I am here for you. You two, stand aside. Girl, I suggest you come peacefully." Cabba clenches his fist "You're one of Frost's people. If this is about the tournament, your business is with me first!"
The frost demon's red eyes fix on Cabba "I believe I told you to leave. You can heed my advice or you can suffer for your stupidity, the choice is yours. But I won't warn you again." Caulifla steps in front of Kale and turns Super Saiyan "I don't know who you think you are, but you don't get to walk up to us and just start making threats. I'll have you know that we happen to be three of the strongest beings in this universe." He chuckes "Is that so?" Caulifla turns Super Saiyan 2 and dashes towards him, connecting with a hard right to his jaw. The frost demon is barely moved, and Caulifla growls in frustration, hitting him with a flurry of kicks and punches. He catches her kick, pulling her towards him and backhanding her away into the side of a cliff.
Kale watches Caulifla get sent flying and rushes to her side as Cabba dashes towards the frost demon. Cabba does not fair any better, receiving an uppercut to his gut that renders him unconscious. Caulifla puts her hand on Kale's shoulder "Run. I'll take care of this loser." She forces herself to stand "Lucky you I'm so winded from all our sparring or I might of finished you off already. Wadda you say to round two?!" She turns Super Saiyan 2 again, her aura pulsing around her and lightning arching around her aura. The frost demon brings his feet together, arms spread out wide "Very well." Caulifla dashes towards him, hand held back for a punch. The frost demon knees her in the gut, then grabs Caulifla by her throat, holding her in the air.
Caulifla struggles in her grasp and the planet shakes violently, Kale's aura destroying the ground around her and causing large chunks of earth to rise into the air "How dare you hurt my sis! You'll let her go if you value your life!" She roars out in rage, her eyes becoming blank as she transitions into her Berserk state. She fires a ki blast from her chest at the frost demon and he backhands it away casually, tossing Caulifla to the side as Kale dashes towards him. He holds out his hand and Kale suddenly transitions into her base form, the demon catching her by her hair before she could collapse from exhaustion. He puts two fingers to his forehead and vanishes.
Kale wakes up in a small bedchamber. The walls are metal, and the room has very few fixtures other than a few shelves and the bed she woke up on. She rolls out of bed and make sit to her feet, and the bed folds into the wall. She jumps a little and then turns to the door. There is no visible way to open the door from her side, so she tries to step closer to see if it is motion activated. She runs her hand along the face of the door, when suddenly it opens and Kale stumbles back from it. There, framed in the doorway is a 6 foot tall woman with light blue skin, kaioshin features including pointy ears, green eyes and even a set of Kai earrings. Her long white hair is tied back in a ponytail, with two long strands framing opposite sides of her face. She has on a black long sleeved shirt under her red and white trimmed jacket, complete with matching black pants and red boots.
Kale clenches her fists, and seeing no other way out, throws a right hook at the kaioshin. She grabs Kale's punch easily. She smiles down at Kale "Perhaps introductions are in order? My name is Unmei." Her voice was sultry, and she spoke with an eloquence that threw Kale of a little. She had recalled being kidnapped, and she knew the woman in front of her was no ally, yet Unmei's air of calm and her soothing voice set Kale at ease. She relaxes her stance, then she cups her chin "Well, I'm Kale. And..." She takes a step forward, fists clenched suddenly at her sides "I demand to know what's going on here!" Unmei raises her hand and Kale flinches. Unmei giggles and touches her head softly "So cute when you're flustered. Follow me, and I'll explain your purpose here."
Kale curiously looks around at all of the soldiers on the ship as they went about their business. These soldiers ranged in skin color, build, and sizes, from 4 feet tall to nearly 7 feet tall, wearing black body armor with the kanji for fate on the top right corner and on the back. Kale looks out one of the portside windows, unable to see anything other than the light of distant stars and maybe a distant planet she assumed to be her own. She looks up at Unmei "Um, Unmei, was it? I... would like an explanation of why I am here, if you wouldn't mind." Unmei nods and stops outside one of the windows "It's beautiful, viewing it all from here. Even more beautiful than viewing it from outside your house wouldn't you say? It all feels within your grasp."
She clenches her fist, then sighs "Enough distractions." She holds her hands behind her back as she turns to address Kale "I have need of your strength Kale. I watched the events that unfolded that led to the Universal Tournament. It was sad to hear that we nearly lost everything." Kale nods a little "Well I suppose the situation was sad." Unmei nods "And it was partly due to that Son Goku. But he is of little importance. The true cause of our woes was the God of Destruction, Champa." Kale tilts her head "How is it his fault?" Unmei turns to look out the window again "His job is to maintain the universe's mortal level, by destroying planets of well developed or violent races." Kale frowns "I don't understand how that maintains peace."
Unmei smiles "Think of the universe like a bush. The Supreme Kai is the roots, providing nutrients to make the bush grow. The God of Destruction is like a pair of sheers. When a part of the bush becomes sick and dies, that branch must be cut off." She raises her hand and the planet in the far distance explodes "Otherwise, the entire bush could die." Kale is too shocked to speak, and when her ability to speak returns she gasps out "Was... w-was that...?" Unmei smiles "It was. But don't fret my dear. You were always different from them. You are no more one of them than I am. No, now you are a Child of Fate." Kale stares up at her "C-child of Fate?" Unmei nods "Yes. Now, onto what is expected of you." She takes Kale's arm and Kale pulls her arm out of her grasp. Unmei turns to her "Come." Kale growls "I won't do a d-damn thing you tell me, you vile woman!" The ship begins to shake "Y-you blew up my planet, my friends, family, all those innocent people, and you killed my sis! That's unforgivable!"
Unmei nods "Grief is understandable, and to be expected." She snaps her fingers and they appear in a barren wasteland "So, by all means, I will allow you this chance to express your rage, so that we may begin taking steps towards you coping with your grief." Kale lets off pulses of ki, roaring as her bulk increases. She let's off an explosion of ki that sends rubble in every direction, Unmei covering her eyes to shield herself. Kale was on her in a heartbeat, the distance between the two of them spanned so quickly the ground under Kale is torn to pieces. Unmei turns aside Kale's frantic punches with her forearm, backing away as she effortlessly defends herself from the rage filled beast. Kale lets off a chest blast that detonates between her and Unmei, sending Unmei flying back. She digs in her heels but seems mostly unfazed by Kale's blast.
"As your anger towards your loss begin to consume you, you may be overcome with self-doubt and anger aimed at yourself, at what you could of done different. But don't allow it to control you." Kale howls in rage "Kill Unmei!" Her fist slams down on the ground and Unmei leaps back out of the way. Kale punches a rather large portion of rock towards Unmei, who uses a wave of her hand to send it away with telekinetic. Kale closes the distance and this time she manages to hit Unmei with a powerful uppercut, before sending her into the side of a cliff with a hard right to her torso. Unmei spits up blood, then closes her eyes and clenches her teeth. Kale charges towards her and she uses her energy to blow away the cliff behind her, closing the distance and appearing behind Kale. She chops Kale on the back of the neck and the resulting shockwave clears all of the rubble and dust in the air, cracking the ground under Kale's feet. She reverts back to her base form and Unmei grabs her by the back of her shirt "This one may take time."
Caulifla and Cabba land in a heap on Champa's planet. Vados lands in front of them, having transported them both to Champa's planet. Caulifla makes it back to her feet "Thanks for agreeing to train me Vados. This guy, he was like Frost, but his strength was insane. Like 20 of Frost." Vados smiles "Oh, you mean like that Frieza fellow?" Caulifla nods "Right, except this guy was big, not short and scrawny. And he kidnapped Kale. I intend on getting her back, but first I need to get strong enough to beat him." Vados' staff glows and she looks at it "My, looks like I got you two just in the knick of time. It would appear Planet Sadala is in ruin now." Caulifla goes wide eyed "I-it is? Is... is there anything left?" Vados brings up a holographic image of the asteroid field that was Planet Sadala "I'm afraid not." Caulifla drops to one knee, her expression blank as she tries to take in this new information.
Cabba looks at the image in horror "It... can't be true. You're lying." Vados sighs "I'm afraid not, Cabba. This is an unfortunate situation for the two of you, with only three of you left alive after this tragedy, one of whom is captured and possibly dead." Caulifla sobs into her arm, and Cabba puts a hand on her back, trying his best to comfort her "We will avenge them, I promise Caulifla." Caulifla makes it to her feet, her face weary, eyes red and puffy from crying "What are we going to do, get beat down again?" Cabba frowns "Caulifla, you're not giving-" Caulifla turns to him "Of course I'm giving up you moron! What hope do we have against that monster?!" Cabba clenches his fists at his side "Caulifla, I know you are distraught, but this isn't like you. The Caulifla I know would never back down from a fight. And the Caulifla I knew would never abandon her protege!" Caulifla hangs her head "I wasn't strong enough to protect her. And I'm not strong enough to avenge them all." Cabba nods "You will be. We both will be."
