Chapter 1 Dragon Universe
The day was rather calm for Beerus and Whis, but that also meant that the day was also dreadfully boring. Goku and Vegeta had just finished competing in Champa's tournament, they would be either resting or training on their own. But what better way is there to train other than with Whis? "Ahh... What a dreadfully boring day. I should probably find something to do." Beerus said out loud. That was when his attendant, Whis came by. "Oh, did I hear that you were bored?" Whis asked. Beerus turned to look at Whis and sighed. "So you heard?"
"Well I assumed I was supposed to. If you want to keep your thoughts private, you should just simply not think out loud, my lord." Whis replied with a smile. Beerus simply turned away and huffed. "You have something in mind?" Beerus asked. Whis then chuckled, "Well, I wouldn't have called you out if I didn't." Now Whis had Beerus's full attention. "What do you have in mind?"
"You haven't really been doing your job for a while." Whis answered. This made Beerus groan. While he was good at his job, he much prefers fine cuisine and napping. Beerus immediately answered with a quick but firm,
"Nope! Not doing it!" Whis sighed at this retort. He then figured that he'll have to resort to threats. Whis then said,
"Are you sure, my lord, what do you plan to do when the Omni King notices you, how should I put it, being inept at your job as it were?" Hearing this, Beerus visually flinched. He then quickly turned around, jaw dropped low and eyes wide open.
AHHH! I Promised Lord Zen-Oh that I wouldn't be a slacker, but I've done more eating than destroying! "YOU WOULDN'T...!" Before he could finish, Whis cleared his throat and continued.
"I'm not threatening you Lord Beerus. But make no mistake, the Omni King will not take your slacking off lightly." Beerus said no more and immediately stood up and zipped right next to Whis.
"ALL RIGHT, WHIS! YOU WIN! I'LL SUCK IT UP AND GO, JUST HURRY!" Whis smirked.
Well that was shockingly easy, Whis thought,
"All right, then setting course for a repulsive planet to destroy, Lord Beerus. Hope you can stomach your lunch and excitement!" Whis said cheerfully.
"Whis, I'm fairly certain that that ten planet solar system is enough to fill the quota, let's go back home and eat dinner!" Beerus whined.
"Oh, pish, posh, Lord Beerus. You really think one solar system is enough for the day? You haven't even spent a minute destroying it." Whis replied. Beerus simply slapped his hand on his head and groaned rather heavily. He clearly isn't having the time of his life now. "Alright, Whis. Where should we go next?"
"Well, there's a system of solar systems that are filled to the brim with space criminals, all wanted by the Galactic Patrol."
"Criminals all wanted by the Galactic Patrol. Well they better be grateful for doing them a favor. Also, how do you miss a system of solar systems filled with criminals that you are actively searching?" Beerus asked rhetorically. Beerus then turned to and nodded. Whis smiled and floated next to Beerus. But then, both Beerus and Whis felt something that made them tense. "Whis you feel that?" Beerus asked.
"Yes, my lord. But his scent, the stench is retching." Whis answered, looking like he was going to throw up. Then, a purple aura appeared out of the blue, and out came a tall, slender man. He had strange blue clothing with gold lines. His skin was pale and his face had red markings and had red eyes. His hair was also red and had three spikes of hair. He carried a staff that looked more like skeleton hands and had a red crystal ball on the top. However, his expression was sinister and that of a stone cold killer. Whis didn't need to smell the murderous intent, the two of them could see it. But before long, Beerus stepped up and greeted himself.
"I am Lord Beerus, the Destroyer of the 7th Universe. Who are you and what are you here for?" Beerus demanded. The person smirked and answered,
"My name is Demon God Demigra, Lord Beerus."
Demon God, that doesn't sound like any god that exists in the multiverse. Beerus thought but he continued anyway. "Demon God Demigra you say?" Demigra smiled,
"That is my name and title." Whis kept his stare at Demigra with a hard glare. Demigra noticed, still keeping his smirk. "I understand you are rather anxious about me. I can assure you, those fears are justified."
"Alright Demigra give me one good reason why I shouldn't destroy you right here and now? I'd be doing Universe 7 a favor by making you disappear." Beerus threatened, Who is this fool, thinking I would be afraid of him. I'm simply waiting for the moment to destroy him completely. Beerus didn't get much time to think as Demigra actually answered.
"You simply can't." Beerus couldn't help but chuckle then, This man is really confident, probably because he's another blockhead. Beerus then pointed two fingers at Demigra and without warning, completely destroyed Demigra until he was nothing but cosmic ash. But Beerus noticed while Demigra was being destroyed, Demigra was still smiling. This unnerved both Beerus and Whis. Beerus then turned to face Whis,
"Whis, did you notice?"
"Yes, I feel that this isn't over." Whis replied. But then, another purple mist appeared and Demigra appeared from it again. Still smiling.
"You're right, Whis. This is far from over." Demigra said with a cold steel to his voice. This was a massive shock for the Destroyer and his attendant.
"B-BUT-BUT HOW! NOTHING COULD SURVIVE THAT!" Beerus cried.
"Did you actually think I would approach you, Beerus the Destroyer, without any contingencies in mind?" Demigra asked proudly. "That was simply an expendable mirage of my body. I exist in a place beyond this multiverse." This shocked both Beerus and Whis even more than what Demigra survived. Then, Beerus shook his head and immediately started to speak.
"All right, Demigra. What do you want?" Beerus demanded.
"Good to see that you understand who I am, Lord Beerus." Demigra replied. Beerus growled at this.
I am going to track down this arrogant bastard and completely obliterate him. Beerus thought. Demigra then continued,
"What I want is simple, control of time and space, and have my revenge against that little brat of a Kai, Chronoa."
"The Supreme Kai of Time?" Whis asked, "Now what did she ever do to you, I wonder?"
"Enough, Whis. This bastard's head is clearly not screwed in straight." Beerus said. Demigra simply chuckled,
"Why, Lord Beerus, is that fear I hear in your voice?" Demigra asked, slyly. Beerus was now shaking furiously.
"You really don't value your life, do you Demigra? Because the moment I find you, I vow to crush so hard that you'll rue the day you tested the FURY OF A DESTROYER! Then you will truly understand the failure of your logic!" Beerus threatened, growling at the last part. This did not stir fear in Demigra, in fact, he wasn't fazed at all. In fact, he almost seemed amused by Beerus's threat. This angered Beerus even more. Whis noticed that Beerus's anger was causing Beerus's divine power to spill out.
Oh dear, this could be a problem for Universe 7. Whis then immediately spoke up, "Lord Beerus, you must stop, NOW!" Beerus then turned around saw that Whis was serious and he attempted to calmed down. It took some time but he eventually calmed down. But Demigra then continued.
"If that's really your threat to me, I'll give you some applause for you effort. Now, let me give you mine. You find me, I get destroyed. Very well then. But when you fail, I will make sure that my pawns find you and destroy YOUR PRECIOUS LITTLE SAIYANS! And when that happens, when I control time, I will SEND ALL OFF YOU, THE DESTORYERS, THE KAIS, AND GRAND ZENO, TO OBLIVION UNTIL I, DEMIGRA IS THE ONE TRUE GOD! That is what I promise, all mighty destroyer! That is what you will understand!" Demigra growled, before his mirage vanished into nothing. Leaving Destroyer and Angel in shock and awe.
On a little blue planet in the quadrant known as the North Galaxy, a little blue planet called Earth, two of the most powerful mortals in the universe call it home. Their names are Goku, the Saiyan raised on Earth, and Vegeta, the prince of all Saiyans. These two mortals have bested their limits time and time again. And they have not stopped their training. In a barren wasteland, the two of them sparred, shaking the ground despite fighting in the air. Their immense powers are no lie and they know it. During their sparring, Vegeta was caught in an arm lock by Goku, unable to escape. Without any warning, Vegeta then transformed into a Super Saiyan Blue, signified by the shiny blue hair. The transformation also granted the user massive, unquantifiable power. With this transformation, Vegeta was able to break free from the arm lock and performed a reverse head-butt on Goku. "Jeez, man, what was that for?" Goku asked annoyed. "I thought we agreed, no going Super Saiyan Blue."
"Well too bad, we're dropping that agreement now, Kakarot. Now turn Blue, dammit!" Vegeta yelled. Goku was frowning at this point.
"Fine, but now you better give it your all, cause now I'm just ticked!" Goku said before transforming, turning his hair and eyes blue. Vegeta then smirked as the two Saiyans entered a battle stance.
"Let's settle this, once and for all, Kakarot!" Vegeta confidently yelled. Goku smiled with confidence of his own and replied,
"Don't have to ask me twice!" The two then charged at one another at high speeds, speeds that no normal eye could ever think to see. But before their fist could clash, something even faster came crashing towards the two Saiyans. Shocking both out of their little duel. The crater still had smoke coming out. But Goku and Vegeta already knew well enough what it was.
"Lord Beerus, is something the matter?" Vegeta asked trepidatiously. When the smoke cleared, Beerus and Whis were fully visible. But Beerus didn't really hear what Vegeta had said. The two Saiyans got closer to the point to where they heard a sound. The two Saiyans then inched closer to get more clarity on the noise. And it was the sound of arguing. "Whis! What the hell do we do now?"
"Lord Beerus, I recommend that you calm down before we do anything rash, or dare I say, idiotic."
"We're facing the threat of being cosmically deleted and you're telling me to KEEP MY COOL?!" This argument didn't continue for long, as Goku immediately bombarded Beerus with questions.
"Lord Beerus, what's going on? Are we in danger? What's cosmic deletionism? Who is this guy you were talking about? Is he strong, super strong even?" Beerus's brain was still trying to handle the situation he was facing, he simply didn't have the mind-power at the moment. Beerus quickly turned to Whis and motioned him towards Goku. Whis smirked, cleared his throat and began,
"Goku, to answer all your questions, yes, we are in terrible danger, a being named, Demon God Demigra has threatened Universe 7 with cosmic deletion-"
"Wait, hold up. What's so bad about cosmic deletion?" Goku interrupted.
"Well, cosmic deletion is quite literally removing something from existence." Whis answered. Goku still scratched his head.
"Really, that just sounds an awful lot like dying. Dying's not that bad, isn't it?" Whis shook his head.
"I'm afraid that deletion is very bad. You don't just die. Your soul is also erased. Meaning no afterlife, no revival with any Dragon Balls." Goku was still confused, Death that you can't come back from, that does seem pretty bad. But before Goku could ponder some more, Vegeta shot in front of Goku and asked Whis a question of his own.
"Hold on a second Whis, this Demigra guy, what makes him so special? What makes him different from someone like Frieza or Cell?"
"Well, Vegeta, Demigra seems to have the ablity to create mirages of itself. Meaning he could basically survive anything as long as his real body is intact, I'm assuming."
"So he can create some puffy little puppets. Is there something else we should know?" Vegeta barked.
"Careful, Vegeta. You always underestimate your foes. Something that will cost you everything." Beerus asserted. With that, Goku chimed in.
"Yeah, Vegeta. I mean for all we know, this Demigra guy could be super strong. Maybe even stronger than Lord Beerus."
"You better watch what comes out of that chew hole of yours! Demigra is nowhere near my power! He probably isn't even a god like he says he is!" Beerus loudly retorted.
"Wait, he's a god?" Goku asked.
"NO MORE QUESTIONS! WE'VE GOT MORE IMPORTANT MATTERS TO ATTENT TO!" Beerus cried out. Vegeta had the face of confusion.
"Like what, exactly?" Beerus then turned to Whis, again, to answer Vegeta's question. Whis sighed before glancing at Vegeta and stating,
"Demigra appears to have some magical techniques that are very difficult to counter."
"Well, Vegeta and I could get stronger and just push through can't we?" Goku chimed in. Beerus planted his palm firmly on his face while groaning heavily.
"Did you pay any actual attention to anything we just said?" Beerus exclaimed.
"Well he would, if you let me finish, Lord Beerus." Whis replied before clearing his throat and repeating, "Goku, his ability to be anywhere at any given point is no simple technique, it's practically a cosmic cheat." Goku was scratching his head before his face lit up in excitement as he said,
"Ohhh, I get it." Whis then nodded before continuing.
"Like I said, we need someone or some people to not only figure out where the real Demigra is, but to also counter any possible magic that Demigra might use." The two Saiyans were able to understand and they stood readily and eagerly. Whis and Beerus then turned to eachother and spoke,
"So, Whis... Which universe should we go to?" Beerus asked. Whis smiled smugly while shaking his head.
"I don't think the universes in our multiverse would help, but my father has spoken of other, more diverse multiverses." Beerus then placed his fingers on his chin while crouching down on his knees, silently mumbling to himself while he was pondering his one option. Goku and Vegeta stood there waiting for the two divine beings to say anything to them. But of course, Goku, being the impatient one, slides right next to Beerus and leans in close enough for his breathing to tickle Beerus's ear. It did take a short while for Beerus to notice but when he did, Goku found himself with his cheeks squished together by Beerus's fingers.
"Goku, I swear one day I will destroy you completely. We just have to deal with Demigra and his folly first."
"Oh, come on, Lord Beerus. You don't have to say those things, we're tight buds are we not?" Goku happily said through squished cheeks. Beerus then quickly threw Goku down to the grassy ground and stood up, his eyes filling the air with a chilling cold with his glare. Goku immediately felt the seriousness of Beerus and stayed on the ground.
"I sure hope you haven't forgotten who I am but if you're in need of a recap, I'll gladly help you. I am Beerus the Destroyer, and if I want someone dead, there will be absolutely nothing, not even ash or dust, that remains. So before you think we are 'tight buds' just remember what my job allows me to do. Or what my position is life gives me." Goku immediately put his hands to his face, clapped them together and looked up in absolute terror.
"OKAY, LORD BEERUS! I UNDERSTAND YOU NOW!" He cried desperately, "I'm sorry." He added sheepishly. Beerus then looked at the rest of the group and spoke.
"All right, now that that's settled. Whis, take us to one of these multiverses." Beerus said with high authority. Whis smiled before raising his staff,
"Very well, Lord Beerus. Now everyone, HOOOOLLLD ON TO YOUR BUTTS." He cheerfully shouted. And before the minute passed, everyone held together near Whis before a bright pillar of light appeared from Whis and as quickly as the pillar appeared, the light vanished, taking all four godly beings with it.
