Kenji Arc 3
(A/N: The long awaited third installment of the Kenji Arc. The title was the hardest thing to come up with, but this title fits to me. I'm not sure on the length of the third one. But I can say, this one is going to very important. Secrets will be revealed and connections will be made!)
Previously on the Kenji Arc, Kenji Victoria Blackthorn sent Peter, Chris, and Lois Griffin to hell to save another. Purging Meg of negative energy, Meg gained a new look. Deciding to chunk deuces, Brian and Stewie sided with Kenji. Now they along with Lana Lockhart started to hunt down their world's distortion. Karma came for Quahog, but some escaped it. The team scooped up Jillian despite her not being very useful to them. Now they were on their way to Farmer's Fields…
Chapter 1 – Connections and Crossovers
We finally got to Farmer's Fields and then I find out there's a warper living there trying to help some poor residential woobie. I'd do something, but like I said, I'm an anti-hero. I'd purge the place, but I'll give this guy a while. When I told the team this, Stewie was less than pleased.
"So we're going to not kill these idiots because one guy wants to do good for someone." Stewie said to me quite annoyed. "Why the duece do we care?"
"Because for one thing, he could be recruited." I remarked looking at my BlackTab. "According to the data, he's got real mixed blood. So I'll let him try. He might make our jobs easy and even find and fix the distortion for us."
"So what now?" Meg asked me.
"Well there is the matter of actually training you guys. While you guys have skills, I do need you guys up to par to be able to combat what we'll see in space." I said to them.
They could see I was serious about that, and I gave them a choice on what they could learn. Of course, I made training their bodies to resist bullets mandatory, but I gave them options to further their combat prowess. It was the choice of either ki combat, sword play, enhanced gun play, cybernetics, elemental abilities, power up combat, and mental abilities. Meg opted for ki combat saying she's seen what I could do and gladly wants to blow planets up. Brian opted for gun play because of his realism (I was hoping not to have a gunslinger. Damn!). Stewie wanted cybernetics, mental abilities, and elemental powers. Lana settled for power up combat. I didn't really want to teach Jillian anything mostly due to the fact that it would be a really bad idea. The last thing I need is for her to kill anyone by accident, but I was going to teach her defensive techniques to shield us. I want her to be useful for something! But that was the least of my issues...
-(Line Break)-
In the reaches of space lies many beings traversing the star systems. Warpers, space criminals, and space stuff. Among them was space's greatest hunters, the Space Rangers. Macy Atomix, Mindi Tygerson, and Allison Rose were the trio making that team. They came from different paths of life.
Pink haired, Macy "Deadly Flash" Atomix was the "leader" of the team. She was a former Galactic Federation cadet who finding out some secrets she shouldn't have about her corrupt force. She escaped killing her superior officer and being trained by badass woman incarnate, Samus Aran. She told at near Samus's height with a true athlete's body thanks to her training and mutation. She got her nickname thanks to her suit being easy to tear and being very deadly even when exposed.
Black haired, Mindi "Black Spark" Tygerson was the team's jack of trades. She was Macy's closest friends who opted for the independent academy Macy would soon go to. She got some training from Macy when they decided to work together. She's a quarter-inch shorter than Macy. She obtained her nickname for having an affinity to use electrical-themed weaponry.
Last on the team was the blonde, Allison "Cheap Shot" Rose. She was a typical slacker on Earth-M. She wound up at the independent school where Macy and Mindi due to losing a bar bet. She joined Macy's team due to being kicked out for her apartment. Despite being lazy and hedonistic, she's a prodigy with a blaster to the point she sometimes outshines Macy if she actually focused. She prefers using her "feminine wiles" on opponents at times. She got her nickname from not only being a ridiculously good shot, but being a lot more willing to do so in less honorable ways. She sometimes does fight Macy for leadership, but tends to lose often. Macy would either kick her ass six ways to Sunday, knock her unconscious in one hit, or put Allison over her knees to spank and humiliate her.
Now the crew traveled a badass gunship done in the honor of Samus Aran's own ship, "The Swift Strike"
The three used to work independently years ago, but allied themselves with a little known organization known as the Mach Fist. Now the Fist League, that group rose to considerable power in the small cluster of universes they watched over. Macy had a close friendship with the leader, Curt Powers, even though they hadn't seen other during the Fist League's last war with Onega Gigas*. Recently, Curt had hired the trio to explore beyond the cluster to gather information.
"I'd go myself, but with the chaos in going on in the Pokémon universe, I need to stay here. However, since the attack on our Dragon World and losing Goku and our friends, I realize we need to expand our knowledge of the universe. So I want you and your team to go out and explore it. Report any data you can, and depending on what you gather, there might be a huge payday for you." Were the words he said before they took off.
So the group explored and got into a mishap with a certain council. Meeting the Merc with a Mouth, he sent them there. Arriving there, the three were treated as reality warpers registering. So the three were classified as 5th level warpers. While there, Allison had scarped secret documents off of them after slipping away to investigate. The three had to escape and run for their lives when they found out they were allied the Fist. Now the Order of Reality knew of the exploits of Fist, and found them a threat. This was why they left the worlds under them alone, in order for the Fist not to be aware of them. The trio escaped but not before Allison also stole Wander's hat from one of the Elites. Now they were just relived they gotten away and now were rooting through the information Allison stole along with the information that was given to them.
"Amazing, I couldn't believe that there were millions of people who traverse worlds like the Power Family." Mindi said reading the dossier on the rules of warping that they were provided. "Rules seems to imply that they don't step in unless it's a prime universe. Other than that, they let "warpers" do whatever the hell they want."
"That's a scary thought." Macy remarked remembering the villains she fought against in the past.
How many of them were warpers was a thought blaring in Macy's head.
"We should read these documents I stole." Allison pouted with the unopened files on the table.
"Not yet, Allison. We should at least run through the rules and basic information every warper should know. And apparently all warpers in some form or way were created by 7th level warpers, basically the people of Earth Prime." Macy stated. "With some exceptions."
After reading all that material, they cracked off the sealed files and the mother lode of information was dumped them. They had files on the Fist League and every member down to the janitorial staff. However, it was old and cut off by about the war with Onega Gigas much to their relief. They even found files the council had on them! Macy was horrified to see that these guys tracked her down to the warper who created her.
"This is deep shit." Allison said as she kept leafing through the files. "Even on everyone's children…they considered everyone a threat."
They found the Order even had connections to Commander Erde at one point revealing her to be a reality warper and spy for them. They knew Macy killed her and all they cared about was she wasn't exposed as a spy for them. Now Macy hated Commander Erde for treating her like crap, but she even found that disgustingly gray. But the last document was the one that scared them the most. The document expanded on an alien race, the Endurion race. Now all three already knew of the race, but were shocked to find out that Curt's family aren't the only survivors.
"According to this, there were two more people who survived and achieved the impossible by landing in Earth Prime. Their names…Akira and Kaneda Blackthorn." Macy read. "This part says, "It's imperative that the Blackthorn clans DO NOT discover their origins or meet Curt Powers.""
"Do you realize what this means?" Allison asked.
Macy shook her head and Allison pointed out that they were going to filthy stinking rich for this information.
"No, this is bad! If they realize that we stole that, they are going to do everything they can to stop us from getting those documents into the wrong hands!" Mindi said terrified. "We need to beeline for our cluster."
Allison rolled her eyes at that saying that there's no rush. She, of course, was always wrong on that regard. A laser blast hammered the Swift Striker, and Macy checked the monitor to find ships after them.
"We're hit!" Macy said trying to take control of the ship. "We'll have to land because I can't keep it stable!"
They had no choice to crash land the ship on the planet below with their hunter on their tails. The rangers were now the hunted.
Good luck.
-(Line Break)-
Leaving Farmer's Field alone, I decided to catch up on the active list of distortions. While I was going on, Jillian pointed up at a shooting star. Now I would ignore that, but I stupidly looked up. I did see a flaming ship crash several miles away from Farmer's Fields. I had to check that out and hope that the townspeople don't investigate it. Didn't help, that I saw several ships going in the same direction. And I knew those ships for they bore the mark of the Order of Reality. Yes, I'm aware of them. My two years of training after I left Earth (and before I came here for Meg) had me cross paths and learn about them. Let's just say, while their law of neutrality is good idea, those assholes are circumventing it for their own gain. I don't want to get involved, but I did have a rotten feeling about this. I chose to investigate, but I knew I was risking my barely trained team.
"All right, guys. We might have a fight on our hands. I guess I'll have no choice, but we'll have to wing it." I remarked.
"I got two laser blasters, Kenji. I don't know if it'll harm aliens, but they're better than using normal bullets." Stewie remarked getting them out of his bag.
So I decided to aid Stewie in upgrading those weapons. It might take a while, but I rather have effective weapons and take my time then rush into it. I can only hope it won't be late, but either way, I'm killing those Order bastards.
-(Line Break)-
The Space Rangers emerged from their ship with only minor cuts, and they came out blasters in hand. The flagship cruisers that had shot them down bore the mark of the Order. Out the first ship, stepped out a man who was a dark skinned red head with purple eyes that were cold as ice. He wore Saya-jin armor that was white and black with an added cape signifying high rank. This was Leo Frost, younger brother to Leiko Frost.
From the passenger side, came out a woman. She bore resemblance to a Native American down to the skin color and hairdo. She dons a brown brassard and belt combination, large brown gloves, a long green skirt, and yellow and black boots. She lacked a top and yet her modestly endowed chest didn't sag in the slightest. She was known as Song. She was one of many agents of the Order who took advantage of the lax uniform policy. She was an amazon who loved to show off her might.
The second ship procured another woman (a cyborg), this one fashioned after Android 18. Only differences were the tanned skin, freckles, tiny scar across her cheek, and red eyes. She had hoop earrings in both ears, but they were black. She wears a blue denim vest and skirt (with the Order of Reality logo on the back of the jacket) with dark blue tights, brown boots, and a black undershirt that has white and black striped sleeves. This was Crystal, who was Leo's lover. She loved him, but Leo was essentially Saskue to her.
Out of the passenger door of the second ship, was an elderly human man with a thick white fu manchu mustache and beard. Despite being old, he had a build of a bruiser. He wore a lab coat with a grey tank top, red shorts, and white flip-flops. He was known as Ginji. He was a sadistic old man who got reality warping powers after he tortured and violated a woman warper who crashed into his home years ago.
The four eyed down the rangers silently, but Leo broke it instantly.
"So these are the Space Rangers." He remarked putting on a scouter to scan the three. "Pinkie here, might be the only one able to give me a fight because the other two are beneath me."
Allison didn't take that well and foolishly fired her blaster as the Saya-jin, but he sidestepped it.
"Good shot, but fruitless. I doubt your blasters can harm a Saya-jin like me." He said confidently. "But enough of that."
He came rushing on his own at Allison, who kept firing barrage of laser shots. Some only managed to graze him before got Allison in a vice grip by her neck. Macy and Mindi took aim only for Crystal and Song to vanish and appear in front of them. Mindi got her blaster smacked away and took a kick to the gut from the wannabe Android Sakura. Mindi fought back, but she wasn't too skilled in close combat. Macy was the only one actually able to give someone a run for their money. She traded blows with the topless warrior woman.
"I will accept you as a fellow amazon, but you will fall to me and my chest of might!" Song said stoically giving Macy a haymaker punch.
Macy spit out her blood out her mouth onto Song's eyes blinding her long enough for Macy to overclock her blaster into Overpowered Plasma Mode. During this, her blaster glowed a bright green. Allison managed to free herself from Leo kicking him in the groin, but ran into Crystal. Before Crystal could say anything, Macy fired. The blast nailed Song through her throat ending her life who screamed she'll take her girls to the afterlife and hammered Crystal in the side narrowly missing Mindi.
Macy was glad to defeated the amazon, but her blaster was now completely unusable at this point. And she still had two people left to fight. Crystal staggered to her feet, as her left side was vaporized by the plasma side. She was in immense pain.
"Leo-sempai, a little help?" Crystal said holding the bleeding wound with her hands.
Leo looked her over and fired a ki blast from his middle finger into her head ending her existence to the rangers' horror. They couldn't believe he killed off his own teammate. Macy charged in with a punch for his face, but Leo got before tossing her into the wall of her wrecked ship.
"Unless you want Mindi to end up like Sakura here, don't move Macy!" Leo stated rummaging through his pockets.
Ginji was still silent eyeing Allison like a hungry wolf stalking it's prey. Macy didn't move and had her arms raised. Her eyes glazed over to Mindi who rubbing her bruises from Crystal.
"If we get out of this, I promise I'll teach you some CQC." Macy said in thoughts.
Allison want going to offer herself up in exchange for their freedom, and Ginji rolled his eyes giving the blond one kick to face to render her unconscious. Leo found what he was looking for which was a cube. He threw it to the ground and from out of it came a tentacle creature. Macy rolled her eyes at it unimpressed. She's dealt with horny tentacles aplenty in her career to the point where it's no big deal for her. Maybe it was her days of training on her mentor's planet, making being drilled by those things a workout.
"Who to violate first?" Leo thought as he scanned the three.
Macy had a look indifference to him, Allison was out cold, but then he saw the terror in Mindi's face. So Leo commanded it to attack Mindi. This brought Macy to very high panic levels. Mindi was the youngest of the bunch and managed to go through space untouched by tentacles or anything for that matter. She was quite shy about that aspect. Macy wanted to do something, but her blaster was still shot from overpowering it and she had no idea what Leo and Ginji could do. She had the grey tendril restrain Mindi and tear off pieces of her spacesuit exposing her body to Ginji's sick pleasure.
"Stop this! Please, I'll take her place! I'll do anything!" Macy pleaded desperately.
"I have a feeling there's a reason why you don't her to be penetrated." Leo said with a slasher smile that only grew wider. "An untouched maiden, perhaps?"
"I don't want this!" Mindi screamed desperately fighting the tendrils. "Please stop!"
However, the tendril tied her hands downs and forced her to the ground. Mindi could only whimper and squirm as they tore the bottom of her spacesuit to prepare her. However, Mindi did managed to give the beast one good kick to it's center causing it's to release her. Mindi crawled away, and but the tendrils got to her leg. But before it could strike, a shot was fired. Macy still had her up and the two council cronies looked around. The tentacle beast slumped to the ground dead from a shot to the same spot Mindi kicked it. Mindi's spacesuit started to fix itself, and another shot nailed Ginji in a headshot. Leo looked at the wound and gasped to his horror.
"Eletcro-plasma rounds!" He said to himself in panic. "Those rounds I'll definitely need to avoid. But who's firing them?! Another warper?"
Macy was wondering if the sniper was on her side, but she didn't care at the moment. She did run over and hugged Mindi grateful she was fine. She felt terrible she wasn't able to save her promising internally to get stronger for her sake.
-(Line Break)-
"Nice shooting, Meg." I remarked candidly. "You too, Lana!"
We were able to make two Electro-Plasma rifles in the short time we had to prepare. The rounds take a while to make. It's a good thing we rushed them, because we wouldn't have been able to end the life of two scumbags. Sadly, we could have only make about two bullets and we fired them. There was one, and I was going to have to fight him alone.
"I'll go alone to fight the last one. You can come close, but try not to be seen." I remarked as I flew over to the crash site.
Meg and others took the car, so I arrived first. I had to assure Macy (Yes, I had the BlackTab ID them, but I couldn't get a pin on the home universe. I also ID'ed the council crones where I was informed of the jealously the Frost family had with my own.) that I was on her side. That's when Leo came out of hiding and saw me.
"Oh joy, one of the bastard children the Blackthorn whore." Leo said to my face. "Out of my way, I am preforming justice."
I was a man that had many berserk buttons. Racism, sexism, stupidity, politicians, and all that stuff. But insulting my mother was the number one for me. The anger in me shot up like a rocket and my ki rose glowing a primal and deep red.
"Angry, eh? Deal with it, Blackbrat. Attacking me will have the council on your head." Leo said smugly. "Now Blackbitch, if you excuse me."
He walked past me having a energy ball in hand to waste Macy. This council-loving piece of dog shit insulted my family name. No. He had to die!
-(Line Break)-
Leo made the mistake of insulting Kenji and thinking he wouldn't attack them. If this was Ryker or Ryder, he might gotten away with it. But Kenji give no shits that day about the council.
"Now Macy, after I kill you. I'll finish the job on Mindi." Leo remarked gazing over at Mindi with lust in his eyes.
Macy got in front of Mindi fully intent to take Leo with her if she must, but she wouldn't get the chance.
Neither would Leo as Kenji punched him through his own ship into the dirt. Leo got up to feet, his cheek bleeding from the wound Kenji left.
"Bastard! Are you deft? Attacking me is an offense to the Order of Reality!" Leo said transforming into a Super Saya-jin. "Plus, I'll splatter your body parts across this land."
"So the council condones rape, murder, torture, killing it's own men, and incident exposure? Good to know!" Kenji said powering up. "I'll send them your body in pieces."
Kenji was a bad disadvantage due to Leo having Super Saya-jin transformations to back him up, but Kenji decided to play smart.
"Hey, if you're so confident you'll splatter me. Hit me with your strongest attack! Power up at high as you can go, and fire your biggest blast!" Kenji screeched at Leo.
"And why should I play along?" Leo said sarcastically.
"Well then, I guess my father was right when you told me the Frost family was full of bitches." He said coldly.
That was a lie, but Leo bought it. Kenji walked away from the crash site so Macy, her ship and her friends would not be caught in the crossfire.
-(Line Break)-
Leo was pissed at me for that, and he powered up to the highest form he could reach. Apparently, it was that ridiculous Ultra Super Saya-jin form. He produced two medium-size flaming energy spheres in his hands and brings them above his head to create one single energy sphere resembling the Sun. I wasn't scared at the slightest. What surprised me was he threw it me, he fired a Full Power Energy Wave behind to send it at me with more gusto. This was going to hurt, but I had to brace it. The last thing I hear before the blast hits me was Meg's screaming my name.
-(Line Break)-
Meg and the others arrived just in time to see Kenji get vaporized by the blast and a smug Leo looking on. Meg nearly fainted seeing the attack obliterate half of Kenji's torso. Lana threw up on the ground while everyone else was in stunned silence except for Jillian.
"Is this Dragon Ball Z or Mortal Kombat?" Jillian asked.
They thought it was over, but they were wrong.
-(Line Break)-
After the blast, I was in so much pain. Being stabbed would have felt like a bee sting compared to this. I could hear Leo at me asking if it was hard enough.
"So you think this is funny, huh?" I said in pained breaths.
"Yes, I do. Blackbastard." Leo said with a glee.
"Haven't you forgotten something?" I said sounding normal and unhurt.
"Wait, weren't you in pain?" Leo remarked shocked.
I screamed at the top of my lungs shooting out a new half of my torso and a new arm. Then it was a matter of spawning a Senzu Bean to heal the rest of my wounds. Everyone was slackjawed at what I just did.
"Hey Leo. Let's see how strong I've become thanks to Zenkai. And by the way, you called my mother a whore!" I said angrily.
And so I let out my anger, producing a crater where I was standing with my now golden ki. My hair flared and bio-electricity sparked around my body. I wanted one thing and one thing only now. To beat this jackass to a bloody pulp. All the newfound power I had gotten, and I let it out in a scream.
-(Line Break)-
Now Kenji was merely expecting to achieve Super Saya-jin, but he had no idea of what would happen to him. His body received a slight bulk in his torso and his lower half. All while a familiar tune played. Now everyone couldn't pin what the tune except for Leo. He knew that tune and he realized he was screwed. In that scream, a bright shining golden light blinding like them for a moment. And by the time, their eyes cleared. Standing there was a Kenji, but he wasn't the same guy. Kenji's golden hair become longer and rigid and stood up. And there were the spark emanating on his body.
Kenji had transformed into Super Saya-jin 2, but the worst part of it was he thought he reached Super Saya-jin 1. He had no idea he skipped the first form. His eye opened showing everyone a face of pure unadulterated rage.
"Death awaits." Kenji said quietly.
Leo fell to his knees pleaded for Kenji not to kill him, powering down involuntary in the process. Leo had burnt out all his energy on giving Kenji what he wanted. Leo had forgotten why his sister lost to the Blackthorn matriarch and patriarch in the first place, and he was going to pay for it. Leo looked at Kenji as he walked towards him. Leo thought about his situation and he had a look of anger.
"How dare this brat use me to make himself strong? He won't…he won't WIN!" He screamed out in his thoughts.
Powering back into Ultra Super Saya-jin with new resolve, he pelted Kenji with a barrage of ki blasts. However, Kenji was walking through it casually like it didn't faze him. Kenji cleared the smokescreen made up from the blasts scaring Leo.
"Why…why WON'T YOU DIE, BLACKBASTARD!" Leo screeched before receiving a punch to the face sending him into the ground.
"You should have learned your lesson, the first time." Kenji said looking down on his fellow Saya-jin.
"What lesson?" Leo said weakly.
"Don't butcher our family name and DON'T FUCK with the Blackthorn family!" Kenji screamed kicking Leo into the air.
Kenji zipped up and delivered the finisher. A sickening crunch and a bloody scream was formed from Leo when Kenji broke the man's spine. Leo's limp body crashed into the dirt, his body returning to his weakened base form blood seeping all over the ground. Kenji landed beside him with an outstretched hand fully intent on finishing the job. You'd except someone to stop him and tell him it was wrong to kill him. However, his cohorts encouraged him to do it yelling to end his life. Mindi and Macy could have stopped him, but after what he did, Macy was calling for his death too!
"Please spare me, I can tell you secrets of your bloodline! The real reason the council fears you!" Leo pleaded.
"Don't bother with him. Allison stole those documents so we can tell you what these guy hid from you." Macy said sealing Leo's fate.
Now Leo had no idea those were stolen, if he had known, he would have immediately killed him. For those documents were not meant to be available to all the other warpers. The information would not only expose past crimes, but make the Blackthorn look better by comparison.
"Give me the files." Kenji said to her.
Macy brought to him and Kenji had them scanned with BlackTab. What he said next stunned the BlackTab's A.I.
"Post this out to every reality warper's news station out and to all the other BlackTabs…." Kenji commanded before the A.I. interrupted him with, "Master Kenji, if you do this, you'll put yourself and your allies in danger! Your family could be at risk as well!"
"You didn't let me finish. That's why I want you to stamp it with Leo's DNA. Make it look like he leaked the information to the worlds. But before you do that, send it to the other BlackTabs." Kenji remarked.
The BlackTab did so and then grew metallic limb climbing up to Leo. It used one of the limbs to stab an open wound of Leo's. Taking his DNA, it made the stamp on the online file and sent it out to the public.
"You think you're some kind of hero?" Leo asked.
Kenji put his foot on his head and said to the fallen Saya-jin, "No, I don't. I'm an anti-hero. And don't worry, I'll repay your family for what you've done."
"You stay the hell away from my family!" Leo threatened.
Kenji crushed his head under his heel silencing Leo once and all. A member of the Frost family fell that day and no one shed a tear for him.
"And Kenji wins with a fatality!" Jillian cheered to him.
-(Line Break)-
I had to laugh at Jillian's words for once, and then I let my team grave rob the others before I blew up the bodies. I returned to my base form completely drained. I also had a closer look at the documents and all I could say is damn. When Mom and Dad find out, the Council is going to have to answer. Hell when this "Curt Powers" guy finds out about this shit, he's definitely going to want to strangle them. Fellow reality warpers will definitely call them out for hypocrisy on their own law of neutrality on matters of spying on the Powers family and suppressing information of my family's alien heritage. As for Macy and her team, I fixed their spaceship and the three quickly took off thanking us for saving them. It was then I thought of a team name.
"Hey Meg, what do you think of calling us the Outsiders?" I asked her.
"I like it. Fits with the motif of being on the grey line." Meg said trying on Crystal's boots. "So we're calling ourselves Kenji and the Outsiders."
"I think that's taken, Kenji." Brian pointed out.
I proceeded to confirm that by looking it up…and DC had a team called the Outsiders. I looked at Brian with a gaze of indifference.
"Screw DC! We're calling ourselves the Outsiders!" I said sparking approval from Stewie, Lana, and Meg.
"Marvel was better…." Jillian said with a nod.
"No….Civil War 2 still sucks as bad as the first one." I pointed out. "And when we get the chance, we're going to kill Carol Danvers."
Either way, after all of this, I wasn't really in the mood for hunting distortions at the moment. I really wanted to sleep. I was completely drained due to skipping State One and going to State Two straight away. Secondly, all this "Endurion" stuff was a load to swallow. While I did a good thing by exposing the council, I wound opening a can of worms. It was both a blessing and a horrible curse.

All over the 'verses, every Reality Warper News Network got their hands on this story and being the people they were gleefully decided to air some of it uncensored. Let's just say, reactions were mixed.
-4th Dimension
"No way in hell!" Chronoa said on the video screen.
The Council was desperate for the Supreme Kai of Time's favor due to the lessened flux of warpers from Time Patroller. Jeremy hated going to the branch of the Dragon World where Frieza was still around to get scouters and armor for they were too expensive. Despite that, Jeremy did legitimately want to make things right with Chornoa. Rebecca was another story. Bat-Mite and Mr. Mxyzptlk had taken a sick day just to avoid this.
"Please, Supreme Kai of Time, consider. We'll pay well for your imports to us, please!" Jeremy pleaded.
"I would be willing to consider an alliance under some terms." She remarked coldly to Jeremy.
Despite his flaws and faults, he generally did respect her. So he was willing to comply, but Rebecca wasn't so willing.
"And when can you make terms with us, Chronoa?" Rebecca said putting out her cigarette.
Before she could reply, one of the guards for the Order burst into room in a panic and on the other side Trunks came for Chronoa. Both were alerted of the leak with the news.
"This is Asuka Miza, ace reporter for Reality Warper News Network, reporting a humongous leak of information revealing some shady dealings by the Order of Reality."
Rebecca wasn't concerned, but Jeremy started to sweat profusely. He was hoping it wasn't important.
"Endurion Population Control among with two other sub-documents were sent out to every news network and every device reality warpers use. From what we can gather, it was sent out from a BlackTab but not by a Blackthorn, but by Order's High Commander, Leo Frost."
Jeremy's jaw smashed into the ground in complete terror. He could deal with the leak of any of those documents. The ones pinning Rebecca to some dealings in the 34th Universe involving the sex acrade, the ones where Bat-Mite was illegally selling Batsuits, Batmobiles, and Batweapons. But this was worse! Chronoa was shocked at what the council had done. Spy programs and repressing information from the Blackthorns basically shot down any chance of Chronoa wanting to ally at all with them. She hung up on him and Jeremy couldn't be mad at her. He was wondering how did those document leave the building. Rebecca was still being the indifference person she was asking what was the big deal. Jeremy grabbed the woman by her neck for his control on his anger was slipping.
"First off, if Akira and Kaneda find out that we were hiding shit about their heritage and spying on their fellow Endurions, we can consider ourselves freaking dead men!" Jeremy said in a panic. "And I don't think Curt Powers will take kindly to us on the fact that we had spies on him since the beginning of his career."
"It's not like they are going to kill us. They need us to keep the order whether they like it or not." Rebecca said confidently.
"I would agree, but what's stopping Akira from teaming up with Chronoa and Curt Powers and overthrowing us! Or if our fellow warpers do that! Right now, we don't look good!" Jeremy said getting more and more upset.
Then another guard came in and stated security footage revealed that Allison stole the documents. Jeremy threw said guard into a rolling chair and pushed him out of the room.
"What's next?!" Jeremy screaming.
Rebecca got an alert on her communicator and checked it out. Her smile fell.
"Uh…Leo's dead. So's Ginji, Crystal, and that topless warrior girl. We can't confirm where they were killed. We can confirm Macy killed the two women. The other two, we can't. " Rebecca stated.
Jeremy turned blue for he wasn't an idiot. He had a feeling that a Blackthorn killed Leo. He won't assume the evil Blackthorn, but he was nowhere near the areas of space Leo was chasing the Space Rangers. Jeremy dropped Rebecca and proceeded to walk downstairs to ground level. He got into his space cruiser and flew for the 34th Universe. He was going to need the relief he could get…and he made a phone call to a hotel chain there.
"Yeah it's me...have a hotel room with Lauren Taylor**, Mey Mey**, Inkette**, Queen Cloudia, and Posion in it. I need stress relief."
-Beyond Time and Space, the Void.
There is a place beyond time and space that humans of Earth Prime reach in their dreams briefly, a void of endless opportunity. This was where two beings were able to ascend to this void wide awake. A man and a woman meditating. Here, the two were capable of using their full warping power as 10th level warpers could.
The woman was one of African/Japanese descent obvious in her skin tone which was close to Ryker's tone. She stood six foot-five towering over most women. This was due to her Saya-jin mutation in her genetics. Her build was purely athletic and amazon with well-defined abs and muscles but still having the feminine charms. Her bust was about comparable to Ivy Valentine and Black Orchid's. Her eye color shifted from color to color, but she tended to keep them a fierce blue. Her long black hair cascaded down to her shoulders. Despite her being a mother and in her 40's (which is debatable because of the mutations), it didn't hamper her style of dress. She wore a black blazer had an orange flame pattern along the bottom and on the edge of the right sleeve, a grey shirt that bared her muscled midriff, and black low-rider jeans that had the same pattern on the left leg. Her grey shirt had the kanji for Black on it. This was Genevieve Farah Vega Blackthorn, the matriarch of the Blackthorn family.
The man next to her looked similar to Ryker. He had a similar look except his skin was lightly tanned skin (a lot like Kenji). His Endurion blood allowed him to endure and became a tough man of the galaxy. He wore his hair somewhat spiked and had light stubble on his face giving him a mature roguish look. His build was of a hardened fighter. Despite being a father, he wasn't hampered in his style of dress. He wore a long, open onyx black coat closed on his waist and is held by a white sash, in which his lone katana was tucked. His coat exposes his bare chest, revealing his grey haramaki underneath the coat. He stood at 6'1'' He was Akira Tangen Blackthorn, the patriarch of the Blackthorn (of his kids), and twin brother to Kaneda Blackthorn. The married pair both wore wedding rings.
In this zone, they can observe multiple things at once. They knew Kenji pulled this stunt.
"So it seems Kenji's got the most guts so far. He exposed not only the truth, but eliminated that Frost pest. He's even formed his own little team." Genevieve said gushing. "Leo was quite strong but in the days."
"It's too bad, he grew so weak. He grew complacent with Ultra Super Saya-jin." Akira said seriously. "But I will give Kenji credit for using his head despite being on Super Saya-jin 2."
"What about Leiko, though? She's still planning to attack Ryker." Genevieve said a bit worried.
"Well she's not aware of news outbreak which might work in Ryker's favor. Plus, Ryker has to fight her. I have faith in him that he could win." Akira said confidently.
Genevieve nodded and said, "What about Curt Powers though?"
"I must admit, it's bittersweet finding out. This means the Blackthorn family is under the ruling Power family. We're technically subject of Prince Curt and his mother Queen Lila." Akira said with a sigh. "It's time we paid them a visit."
"Are you actually planning to overthrow the council?" Genevieve asked surprised by Akira wanted to go after Curt.
"No. For once, those council pricks are right. The law of neutrality works, but the issue is that their bending to their advantage. It's not helping that they don't even put limits on their guards. I don't want to take over the council, but I want an alliance with the Power family." Akira said to her, "I want to assure my kids' safety from the Council."
"And what about Jōshō?" Genevieve asked him.
Both saw his rise to evil, and had mixed feelings on it. They were both disgusted by the fact the idea the council even thought to use Jōshō to clip their children.
"All warpers are bound to the law of neutrality. Besides the worlds he ridded weren't exactly worth anything. So we leave him alone for now. But if he comes after our kids, we end him and his crew." Akira said to his wife. "And I don't care if Kaneda tries to stop me."
The two vanished out of the zone heading off for the parts of space where true strange things lie. Curt Powers would hear of this news, but that's another story. And Jōshō would hear of this as well, but he was also another story to come.
(A/N: Surprise! Today, 9/11/16, marks my 19th birthday! To here's my surprise, a complete expansion on Project Blackthorn along with the pieces of my old trilogy, the Power Trilogies. I must admit that this was a tough one to write, but a fun one. So allow me to explain some things that Macy said:)
(A/N:* - Onega Gigas was the main antagonist in the second part of the old trilogy, the Alternate Tales of Rocket. The council would have lost contact with most of their spies during the wasteland wars. )
(A/N:Macy's backstory is fully told in my remake of the first part of the trilogy, "Power Trip". I will definitely do to expand on who was the spy and on how this affects the final part of the trilogy, "Ultimate Fist: The Blade Sagas". I might return to it, and if I do, I might move them here. )
(A/N: And for those expecting Molly, she's next chapter. They will switch between Kenji and Molly. Even chapters will be Molly-centric and odd will be Kenji-centric.)
(A/N: Update, I fixed up the grammar and added on more on the story here and there. Also ** means it's an OC of someone else's that you should look up.)
