Chapter 1 : Is this the right thing to do?


3rd Person POV….


Zamasu's eyes adjusted to the darkness and the sat up. Something had woken him up, something was wrong. He narrowed his eyes, something was going on. He noticed something was off, Gowasu was supposed to be calling him, yet there was no old voice calling him. Zamasu was getting suspicious, something was bothering him. He couldn't help but notice just how quiet Gowasu was. Gowasu was never this quiet.

Zamasu raised an eyebrow, something had gone wrong. Zamasu was feeling an uneasy feeling crawl up his back. Zamasu decided to take a step forward and grab a tea cart. Zamasu strolled down the pathway, feeling the uneasy feeling grow heavier and heavier as time went on.

Zamasu's eyes widened when he felt another power level. The power level was much higher from what he expected and he felt it was familiar for some strange reason.

Zamasu narrowed his eyes, something was wrong. Zamasu dropped the tea cart immediately and rushed over to the door. Zamasu had a feeling that whoever that was absolutely dangerous. He noticed that Gowasu was near this person and Zamasu immediately felt his heart stop.

Zamasu felt worry wash over him within five seconds and jumped to the door. The apprentice slammed the door open to see Gowasu and some spikey haired man in black arguing. Zamasu saw Gowasu desperately trying to reason with the saiyan to no avail.

Zamasu's eyes widened when Gowasu's eyes met his. Zamasu was horrified by this and was frozen in place. Gowasu demanded him to run, but Zamasu's fear kept him in place. The situation was making Zamasu worry,his posture was no longer high and mighty, he was now akin to a shivering child.

"Gowasu! What's going on!?" Zamasu asked with fear and horror in his face. The young god took in his surroundings, his eyes widened when he saw the saiyan moving closer. There was no doubt within him that whoever this was wasn't hear on good terms.

Gowasu didn't explain and instead yelled at him."Zamasu, there is no time! Get away from here, he is too dangerous!"

Zamasu stared at him as if he was insane."What? I'm not leaving you here with him! He will kill you!"

Gowasu urged to get away and alert the other kai's about what happened. Zamasu refused to leave, saying it would be foolish for him to stand by and allow this monster to stay here. Zamasu prepared to fight, but Gowasu was yelling at him that this wasn't the time to fight and that he was outclassed. Zamasu didn't care and shouted back that whoever this was was dangerous and he wasn't going to leave him behind.

Before Gowasu or Zamasu could respond, they both heard crackling coming from the left. Zamasu and Gowasu turned to see the saiyan laughing at them.

"Aw, that's cute. You are trying to let him escape. Gowasu, you were always so foolish, that's why you need to be taken care of."

Zamasu was horrified."What!?" What was this man talking about?

"Zamasu, get out here! NOW!" Gowasu demanded, already knowing his fate. He was still trying to protect him apprentice from this psycho! Zamasu's fear crippled him, he wasn't moving from his spot. Gowasu tried to convince his apprentice to leave again, only for Zamasu to still remain frozen in time.

"Zamasu, get out of here now! Get out of-ARGH!" Gowasu's sentence was cut off abruptly when Black's ki blade stabbed him right in the chest. Zamasu's eyes bulged out his head as his master collapsed to the ground. Zamasu's instincts took over as he sprinted to his teacher's side.

"Gowasu! Gowasu! Get up! Please!" Zamasu desperately shook at his master, slowly coming to the dreadful realization that his mentor was no more. Zamasu's lively eyes started into Gowasu's dull and lifeless ones. Fear overtook the apprentice as his world came crashing down.

Zamasu's eyes were wide as he felt Gowasu's body disintegrate into tiny pieces, his eyes filled with horror as his dead mentor evaporated into thin air. Zamasu paled, feeling something watery from into his eyes. Zamasu's eyes narrowed with rage and sadness as the whipped around to the saiyan just standing there. Zamasu's eyes were filled with hurt and seething hatred as he glared at the man who murdered his mentor.

Sure, Gowasu could be rather naive and unaware at times, even when he told him how much the mortals were annoying to him.

But, that didn't mean Gowasu deserved this! Gowasu was still a kind teacher, even with his flaws. Zamasu knew Gowasu normally dismissed his claims of mortals in the past despite him bringing it up in conversations and it got on his nerves, but even after all the disagreements between the two, Zamasu couldn't find it within himself to hate Gowasu. Gowasu was always so nice to him, there was nothing to excuse the act of murdering him in cold blood. Even if they had their differences that didn't justify murder.

The saiyan in black gave Zamasu an incredulous look. He seemed taken back when Zamasu looked visibly upset. The body snatcher raised an eyebrow, he never acted like that when he had the body, so this was something new.

Zamasu wasn't crying,but the look in his eyes was enough to tell the alternate version that he must've cared for Gowasu a lot more than he thought. Black sighed, this would only be a minor problem. It would only take a little convincing and Zamasu would be his. He just had to play his cards right.

Zamasu's eyes were glued to the spot his master had died. The apprentice had remained silent and didn't acknowledge the murderer that was right in front of him. Zamasu was still grieving over the loss as he couldn't help the feeling of remorse shoot him in the heart. Zamasu was still in shock over what happened he didn't seem to notice the saiyan approaching him.

The saiyan frowned, not liking the display of emotions he was seeing."Zamasu."

Zamasu's back stood straight upon hearing his name being called by a murderer. Zamasu's vulnerable light grey eyes darkened with fury and hatred upon laying eyes on the monster who took his teachers life. Zamasu got on his two feet and gave the so called lower mortal a hateful stare. Zamasu's voice was no longer calm, it was full of emotions that took the saiyan off guard.

Zamasu snarled at him with fury burning his eyes."How dare y-you...you monster! How could you do such a thing!?"

Black rolled his eyes, not understanding why it was such a big deal."Zamasu, it's not that big of a deal. It is honestly for the best that he is gone." Black put his shoulder on Zamasu's shoulder, only for Zamasu to whip his head at him with a seething hatred blazing throughout his once calm silver eyes.

"Remove your hand from my shoulder, you filthy murderer." Zamasu's hatred was evident by his voice. Zamasu glared at the saiyan, this caused the mortal to rethink this idea. Zamasu was making this difficult. Zamasu was still outraged about Gowasu's murder, so the bodysnatcher tried to calm his future partner down. Zamasu gritted his teeth as the saiyan continued to place his hand on his shoulder. Zamasu narrowed his eyes and smacked Black's hand away.

"Zamasu, listen to me. I know that you are angry, but you need to understand that this will be for the better future. Some sacrifices need to be made."

"Just why should I trust you!? You murdered my mentor right in front of me!" Zamasu demanded, managing to distant himself.

He knew that whoever this was didn't have good intentions and it appeared that Gowasu wanted to keep Zamasu away from this stranger and for a good reason. Gowasu feared the future if this man got a hand over Zamasu. It turns out he was having a hard time getting through to his soon to be partner than expected.

The evil saiyan put his hands up."Look, you need to calm down. You are running on your emotions and you need to relax."

"Relax? You killed someone I cared about right in front of me and you have the nerve to tell me to calm down." Zamasu was twitching as rage and hatred fueled his next actions."You...You insolent mortal! I'll….I'll kill you!" Zamasu lunged at the bodysnatcher with unknown speed as he summoned a purple ki blade. The false saiyan was stunned and barely managed to get out of the way as Zamasu was aiming at his chest. The kai was aiming to not to just harm him, but to kill him.

Black managed to evade the attack by an inch and almost jumped when Zamasu collapsed to the ground. Zamasu was too emotional to think properly and it was physically draining him. Zamasu was breathing heavily and Black to this chance as to invite him over to his team. Black actually felt bad and decided maybe it was best to explain.

"Now, if you just let me explain this would be easy to understand." Black grabbed Zamasu's hand and held him in place. The kai stared at the murderer with cold eyes, not wanting to hear the so called explanation Black was going to deliver.

"Just who are you!? What gave you the right to do that!?" Zamasu exclaimed not only because he was touching him, but because of the fact he murdered his mentor.

Black rolled his eyes, knowing at this rate it would be hard to explain."Well, I'm technically you."

Zamasu's eyes nearly fell out of his head."What!? That is nonsense!" How was he supposed to believe that? Another version of himself killed his own master? Not to mention that god forsaken body! Where did that thing even come from?

"It's not nonsense! It's the truth!"

"Your lying! I should expect as much from a pathetic mortal! Even if I were to believe you where in all the hells did you get that body?" Zamasu was still letting his anger fuel him, but he refused to believe such a thing without proof!

"I'm you! Don't you understand!? I got this body just so we could work together! To fulfill justice throughout the multiverse and rid it of its flaws, especially the eyesore known as mortals!"

Zamasu's eyes were pinpoints, very few people knew about his absolute hatred of mortals. He never made his thinking violent and Gowasu had no reason to yell at him too aggressively. No one knew that he had thoughts of killing or disposing of them before.

Even then, upon seeing his teacher die by this alternate version of himself was making him have second thoughts. This wasn't something the kai would advocate for. The thought of killing Gowasu slipped through his mind a few times, but never once did the think of doing so. Gowasu was just too kind for Zamasu to hurt him, he would never be able to feel at peace killing his teacher.

"I-I…." He was almost speechless, this was crazy! Sure, he thought destroying the mortals, but he never acted on them before. He knew better than to allow his hatred to spiral out of control.

Black rolled his eyes."Come on, Zamasu. Shouldn't you be jumping for joy? The day of the retribution is upon us! Why aren't you happy?" Black didn't understand, he thought his partner would be filled with glee.

Zamasu's eyes glanced back towards the spot where Gowasu died as a scowl came onto his face. Black rolled his eyes."Zamasu, sacrifices for the greater good of the multiverse need to be made. Some people cannot be allowed to live, Gowasu would only hinder the plan. He's better off dead anyhow."

"He didn't deserve to die." Zamasu said darkly with sharp eyes burning into Blacks. Zamasu's tone was angry and hurt, yet his facial expression hid most of the pain he was feeling.

Black shrugged."It was for the perfect universe. The deaths of a few inferoros for the lovely multiverse is nothing to compare. All this so called suffering and misery will all be worth it compared to the vast multiverse and it's beauty."

Zamasu looked down, unsure why the feeling of guilt was crawling up his back. He wasn't sure if he wanted to do this plan that his alternate timeline came up with. The kai paused, giving Black a glare."Why do you need my help? Can't you do this plan yourself?"

"I need your assistance because we will be the perfect duo! Immortality and strength will overpower our opponents and we'll be unstoppable! In order for this balance to work out, I need you to join me in my plan to annihilate the mortals and succeed justice!"

Zamasu didn't seem convinced and narrowed his eyes before scoffing."What do even intend on doing if this plan of yours even works? This plan sounds rather….extreme even for me, are you even sure you know what your doing?"

"Of course I do! I have everything under control! I just need your help to finish what I've started! So, are you up for the challenge, Zamasu?"

Zamasu was conflicted. On one hand, he could get a perfect universe with no flaws and no mortals. On the other hand, was this truly the right thing to do, and would the harm he'd be contributing to in order to put this plan into action be worth it?

All the suffering and damage wouldn't be good. It was against Zamasu's nature to destroy, so the idea of genociding an entire species for hatred made him feel hesitant. Even if they deserved death, he wasn't used to taking life like it was nothing.

As a kai, he was taught to value life no matter who or what it was, killing the mortals wouldn't bug him so much if it weren't for the morals that had been installed into his DNA. Zamasu had a strong sense of right and wrong, and Zamasu couldn't shake the feeling that something about this plan was wrong. While he didn't like the mortals in the slightest, was killing them truly the solution?

Gowasu always told him to give the omortals a second chance or at least try to view them differently. He never thought about giving them second chance, but after seeing his other self murder his mentor right in front of him, was truly killing them the right thing to do? Was all this worth it?

Zamasu looked down at the ground before noticing his other selves different body. How did he get the body anyhow?"How did you get that body?"

"I….borrowed it. The original owner isn't alive to complain about me using him for out plan."

Zamasu's eyes widened."You...stole someone else's body for power?" From a race of barbarians and power hungry savages? What was wrong with his other self? Stealing a body of a saiyan for power? What had happened to turn himself into this? How did his other self stoop as low as to steal a body for power? To murder his teacher to get him to work with him?

"It was for the better of the multiverse. Don't you want to seek justice for all the wrongs mortals have done?"

'Yes, but the way we are doing this doesn't feel right…..' His future partner had relied on stealing and killing for that body, something made his blood run cold. Zamasu was not comfortable with this anymore.

Zamasu averted his gaze."Is this the right thing to do?"

Black looked stunned."Of course! Retribution for the multiverse is going to have it's costs, I don't get why you don't understand that. If you become my partner, we will have everything we want! We'll be the true gods! Hell, we are the only gods at this point!"

Zamasu's eyes widened in realization."You...you killed everyone. You murdered them all." Zamasu was unsure if this was justified or not.

" I wouldn't call it murder, I say its more of how should I put... was for the best. And besides, don't you want to be part of this? Being one of the only true gods left!? Come on Zamasu, together we will be unstoppable! We'll be able to do anything together!"

Zamasu was conflicted. He didn't feel comfortable, but he had a feeling that his other self would never leave him alone. The saiyan would probably drag him along for the ride if he refused. However, he did say anything he wanted….

Zamasu covered his eyes and sighed,"Fine. I'll help you." Black smirked, but Zamasu didn't finish his sentence."On one condition."

"Hm? What could you possibly want now?" Black was started to get impatient.

"After we are done with exterminating the mortals, bring Gowasu back to life. I should also have a hand in creating the life that we replace from the mortals. That is all I ask for."

Black was taken back by this request. He knew if he did this Gowasu would be no threat to them, if he tried alerting Zeno about the desturction he would just kill him. However, why was Zamasu requesting this wish?

"Why?"

"So we can show him the perfect multiverse we created together. I'm sure it would be rather lame if we were the only people around to see what we have done to the place." Zamasu was still unsure about the 'Zero Mortal Plan', but he knew that if he could get something out of it then it would be a good thing. However, all these sacrifices he was making made him hesitant into thinking that this was right. Was killing them the way to go?

"I suppose that is fair, it's nothing that can't be granted after all." They could just travel to another timeline and use another set of dragon balls to revive him. Wouldn't be too difficult.

Black gave Zamasu a hand, which Zamasu begrudgingly accepted. The deal was on, for now….

Zamasu was still hesitant if what he was contributing to was right. This thing didn't seem like something his teacher or anyone else for the matter would condone, besides, would the multiverse really benefit if all mortals went extinct? What would the do from there afterwards? Everyone is gone and it'll literally just be himself around to talk to.

Black could still see his partner was hesitant, and said that it would be for the best if they got rid of the mortals. Sacrifices like the lives of others and destruction would be necessary to fulfill that goal. Zamasu averted his gaze to the spot where his mentor died and watched Black give him something. Zamasu's eyes were wide upon realizing Black had given him a potara earring. Zamasu shook his head

Zamasu looked down before sighing. Zamasu no longer felt comfortable with the decision he was going to make. Was Black honestly expecting him to fuse with him!? Was he insane! The kai didn't want to join a body with a mortal, that would ruin his entire image. Zamasu narrowed his eyes and cringed as he put the earring on. Zamasu watched Black tell him that the there things they still needed to do.

Zamasu followed him, he had wished for immortality and Black destroyed the Super Dragon Balls to his surprise. Zamasu didn't show his disagreement out of fear, and Black assured that they didn't need someone making a wish to reverse the damage they've done. Zamasu nervously laughed, but a closer look would have made anyone see that he was contemplating if this plan was truly worth it. This damage they were causing made Zamasu uncomfortable.

Black explained that he had already done most of the work, making Zamasu realize that Black had already killed an unknown amount of people. Zamasu felt uncomfortable but he tried to shake the feeling off.

Zamasu watched Black fly off, saying they needed to head to the other timeline. Zamasu looked at the ground before flying off with Black. A small seed of doubt had already been planted, now he just wanted to know if he truly wanted to do this. His mind said yes, but his heart was screaming no. He didn't know which one to pick, because something in his head was telling him that something was didn't know what, but he didn't like it.
