AN: - Author's Note
Last time...
Sam and Valian stare off outside of the hideout as Ophis and Kuroka look on.
"So Valian do you wanna go first?" Sam asks.
"Sure." Suddenly, two white and blue wings sprout from her back.
"Hm? What are those?"
"This is my Sacred Gear, Divine Dividing."
"Cool! What can it do?" Sam says with stars in his eyes.
"It allows me to divide someone's power in half and absorb it." Valian says proudly.
"Really! That's one hell of a coincidence, 'cause my new technique is pretty much the opposite of that!" Sam says.
"Oh? and what's that?"
Present...
Sam clenches his fists and shouts "KAIOKEN!"
Suddenly Sam is engulfed in a huge, red aura, causing his hair to wave in the air.
"W-What is that!?" Valian asks, shocked.
"This is my Kaioken! It doubles all of my combat abilites. Strength, speed, you name it, it doubles them." Sam says.
'It doubles his combat abilites?' Valian thinks to herself.
[It seems quite similar to the Red One's abilities.] A voice in her head states.
'Now that you say that, it is similar, Albion.'
"Hey, Sam." Valian says, getting his attention.
"Yeah?"
"Does your Kaioken boost your power every ten seconds?" Valian asks as Ophis looks on curiously.
"No. Only when I activate a higher state. But, enough talk." Sam gets into a fighting pose similar to Goku's. "Let's go!"
Valian rushes towards Sam. "HAAH!" Valian shouts as she goes to punch Sam in the face, but he blocks it with one hand. "Huh!?"
"That all?" Sam asks as Valian jumps back.
[Divide!] A voice shouts as Valian's power shoots up and Sam's aura shrinks.
'Did she just absorb my power? That means I'm at normal power now...'
"KAIOKEN TIMES 2!" Sam shouts as he aura expands.
"Say, Valian. What happens when you absorb energy?" Sam asks.
"I add it to my own. Why?"
"Well what happens when you absorb too much energy? So much that your body can't handle it?"
"It's expelled from my wings." Valian says, suspiciously.
"Well my Kaioken is similar in that when I can't handle the energy, it starts to destroy my body."
" "!?" " Kuroka and Valian are shocked at his statement.
"T-Then how much can you handle?" Valian asks.
"About times 6."
"Seriously!?" Kuroka asks to which Sam nods.
"However I think I'll test something while we're sparring. When I was is Kaioken, you Divided me, meaning it un-activated my Kaioken. After the division, I activated Kaioken Times 2, meaning Times 2 is now as strong as Times 1."
"What do you mean?"
"If I went Times 12 now, I would be as strong as Times 6, but can your body handle absorbing a Times 6 Kaioken?"
'Could it?' Valian thought to herself. "Then how about we test it?"
"Sure." Sam dashes towards Valian, throwing a barrage of punches.
"DADADADADADADADADADADADADA!" He shouts as Valian barely manages to dodge them all. Except one, to the stomach.
"GAH!" Valian shouts ash she's sent flying from the gut-punch. [Divide!] is heard again as Sam's aura shrinks again.
'Now her power's increased again. Gonna have to ramp this up.' Sam thinks.
"KAIOKEN TIMES SIXTEEN!" He shouts as his aura explodes violently.
"SAM DON'T!" Kuroka shouts!
"It's okay, Kuro-chan. After two Divides, Times 16 has as much power as Times 4 and I can handle Times 4, no problem." Sam reassures her.
"HAH!" A shout is heard.
"Huh!?" Sam turns to see Valian, faster than ever, sprinting towards him. 'She's quicker than before!'
Valian's right fist is cocked back, ready to hit Sam.
'Dammit!' He thinks to himself. 'No time to dodge!'
As Valian's fist grows closer he thinks 'Well, let's try it!'
"KAIOKEN TIMES TWENTY-FOUR!" Sam shouts as his aura explodes once again, this time knocking Valian back.
'Times 24 should be Times 6, but can Valian handle Times 6's energy?'
Valian gets up as steam comes out of her wings.
"So you can't handle Times 6 after all. Right now I'd say you're at about Times 5's strength overall."
Valian, out of breath says "Don't think you've won."
"Oh I don't, you can always Divide me again to bring my Times 24 to Times 12, but then I can use Times 48 to bring it back up, but you can't absorb any more than what you've absorbed now."
'Has Sam always been this smart? No way.' Kuroka thinks to herself.
"Fine, I yield." Valian says as her wings disappear.
"Already? C'mon it was just getting interesting!" Sam asks.
"You clearly have great combat smarts, something I strive for." Valian says, beginning to walk towards to house. "Who knows, you may be a better rival for me than the Red One."
'Red One? Does she mean Sensei?' Sam questions mentally.
"Sam! That was awesome!" Kuroka said running to Sam. "I've never seen anyone dismantle Valian in a fight like that before!"
"Ehehe, c'mon Kuro-chan. It was nothin'." Sam nervously responded.
"Even I, am impressed, you have come a long way from just a month of Baka-Red's training." Ophis says walking towards the two.
"Thanks Ophis-chan!"
"Say, have you made any progress on that gold-haired transformation of yours?" Kuroka asks.
"No, not yet. Sensei said he'd train me on controlling and harnessing my energy in my normal state before the gold transformation's energy." Sam explains. "I really need a better name for that form."
"Did Baka-Red teach you the Kaioken as well?" Ophis questions.
"No I just kinda learned it one day. It was wierd." Sam explains. "Hmm, well anyways, let's go back inside. I'm starving!" he exclaims, walking towards the house.
"Alright, Alright." Kuroka says.
A little while later...
Kuroka, Valian and Sam sit at a table, eating, while Ophis sits on the couch in the living room. The three girls are staring at Sam with various degrees of shock,as he is surrounded with mountains of bowls and plates, while still funneling food into his mouth at an insane pace.
"H-How are you doing that?" Kuroka asks.
"That's not physically possible, even for a Devil!" Valian shouts.
"What did Baka-Red do to you?" Ophis asks.
"Hm?" Sam looks up with a mouth full of food. "Shenshe shays ehts fhrom trhnhng."
"What?" Kuroka asks.
"I shed, Shenshe shays ehts fhrom trhnhng." Sam says again.
"Oh for the love of, SWALLOW!" Valian shouts.
Sam suddenly swallows all the food at once. "I said, Sensei says it's from training."
"Huh?" Kuroka looks confused.
"Many fighters require a lot of calories to burn during training, but I've never heard of someone needing this much." Valian explains.
"Ehehe, you should've seen my dad. He used to eat this much every day, three times a day!"
" "WHAT!" " Kuroka and Valian shout.
"How did your family not starve?" Kuroka asks.
"Can't talk need to eat!" Sam says as he shoves more food in his mouth.
"Seriously?" Valian asks.
'He, is very amusing.' the small Dragon God thinks to herself.
Later that night...
'... ... Dammit, can't sleep.' Sam thinks as he looks at the clock. 'sigh 2:37? Might as well get a drink.'
Sam heads to the kitchen to get some water. 'What is that gold form called? This is bugging the hell outta me!' He sits the glass down. 'I have to find out.' He opens up the door and uses his new skill, flight.
Sam surveys the area, looking for his destination. 'I am so~ glad Sensei taught me how to fly! Ah, there!'
Sam lands at his old village once again. 'Okay Sam, keep calm. You know where the bodies are, just avoid 'em and go to the house.'
After going through the remnants of many buildings, he finally comes across his house. 'I those three hadn't shown up, I'd probably still be here. Then again, I wouldn't have met Kuroka-chan, or Ophis-chan, or Valian-san or Sensei-Red...'
'It should be right around here...' Sam looks around for a moment. 'There!' He walks forward and lifts a few wooden boards from the ground, revealing a wooden trap door, mostly burned. Opening the door's remains reveals a small staircase leading downwards to a room, encased in cement.
'Here we are.' Sam flips a switch, turning on the lights, revealing many shelves of mostly burned books and a half-destroyed desk in the center of the room. 'Mom's library!'
Sam runs his finger along the books. 'Now where would-' Sam cuts off this thoughts when he comes across a book labeled 'Saiyans.'
'Saiyans?' He picks up the book, moves over to the table and begins reading it. 'Saiyans are a warrior race from a faraway planet, known as Planet Vegeta.'
'Planet Vegeta?'
'Planet Vegeta was the home of the Saiyans until, long ago, it was destroyed by an unknown force. Now, the Saiyans are few in number and are scattered across the Galaxy.'
'Destroyed? What could be so powerful, that it could destroy a planet? Besides, Sensei of course. And maybe Ophis-chan as well.'
'However the Saiyan bloodline has not died out. Many full-blooded Saiyans have mated with denizens from other planets, creating half-breed offspring.'
'Half-breed.' He turns the page to find a note. 'What's this? !?'
He opens to note to see his mother's handwriting on the note. 'Mom...'
'Sam, if you're reading this then I didn't get the chance to explain your heritage to you.'
'M-My heritage?'
'In all honesty, I am a Devil. Well, a stray to be more accurate.'
'Mom was a D-Devil!?'
'Most Lower-class devils are members of a High-class Devil's group, also known as a peerage. However, if a Devil leaves a peerage without the High-class Devil's, or King's, consent, they are marked as a Stray Devil. My master was a cruel bastard, pardon my language, so I ran away. Eventually, I came across this village, where I was welcomed, despite being a Stray.'
Sam began crying. 'M-Mom...'
'In truth, this village was created to hide Stray Devils from other Devils, permitting them a somewhat normal life once again. One day, I left the village, knowing not to, and was attacked by Fallen Angels.'
"Fallen Angels..." He muttered with venom lacing his words.
'However, a brave fighter saved me. That man was your father.'
"!?"
'Soon enough we got married, and had you. However, not too long before we married, he revealed something to me. He was, in fact, a full-blooded Saiyan.'
"WHAT!?"
'Sam, you really are half-Devil and half-Saiyan.'
"...so I'm a, half-breed?"
'I'm sorry I never told you, I wanted to wait until you were older, but I suppose that time never came. One day, you may tap into your Devil and your Saiyan powers. Your father had the powers of a Saiyan. Incredible fighting capabilities and natural bodily energy, or ki. They also possess an insatiable appetite for fighting, as they are a warrior race. As for my powers... I probably will write them down some other time...'
'Fighting capabilities? Appetite for fighting?'
'Saiyans also get stronger every time they come close to death. But try to stay safe, okay?'
Sam's crying slows. "Ehehe... okay."
'Also Saiyans have a legendary transformation, only known in their myth. It is known as a Super Saiyan.'
'Super... Saiyan?'
'When a Saiyan's emotions reach a limit, and break through said limit, the power within them will grow to immeasurable new heights, their eyes blue and their hair golden and spikey.'
'Super Saiyan. That's it's name!'
'Your father could never activate the transformation, but maybe he will one day, and maybe you as well. Half-Saiyans, in theory, should be able to activate the transformation, however you have to be pushed over the edge. I just hope you never go through that.'
"..."
'Oh, one last thing. Devils are weak to Holy energy, so beware of that. Stay safe, son. I love you.'
Sam's crying begins again. "Mom..." He wipes his tears and closes the book, taking it with him.
He then leaves the library and the burned house. He begins flying and eventually reaches the hideout.
As he reaches the hideout's living room, he comes face to face with Ophis. "Sam."
"Super Saiyan." Sam says, confusing Ophis.
"What?"
"My golden haired transformation, it's called Super Saiyan."
"How, did you find this out?" Ophis asks.
"This book." He pulls it out from his jacket. "It was at my old house, in the underground library. You can look at it if you want."
Ophis nods and grabs the book. "How did you get to your house so quickly?"
"Oh, I flew. Sensei taught me how to use my energy in many different ways. yawn~ Anyways, I should probably go back to bed. G'night Ophis-chan!" Sam says before walking back to his room.
The Dragon God scans the book over for a moment. "Saiyans, huh?"
And END! I'm not sure how good of an idea revealing Super Saiyan's name to Sam was, but whatever. What's done is done.
By the way, I hope the fight scene was good. I'm not very good at writing fight scenes.
Oh and by the way, here's how old everyone is for anyone who was wondering.
Sam - 7
Valian - 8
Kuroka - 12
Ophis - Who the hell knows; Physically - about 10
Harems (Any harem suggestions are greatly appreciated!)
