I slowly opened my eyes when I heard the morning birds chirping.

I yawned and sat up on my bed.

I realized that I was laying down on my bed.

I remembered I fell asleep on Tapion's shoulder last night.

"Where did Tapion go?" I asked myself.

I got out of bed and looked through my window.

I could see Trunks playing around with Tapion out in the yard.

I smiled at the sight of the two of them playing.

With that, I took a quick shower, brushed my teeth and changed my clothes.

I made my way outside and joined the two.

"Hey Saiya! Look how strong Tapion is! I'm swinging!" Trunks shouted as he held onto Tapion's arm and swung like a monkey.

I was laughing. It was nice to see Trunks enjoying his time.

Trunks let go of Tapions arm and started running out with his dog.

I walked next to Tapion as we watched Trunks.

"Morning." He said.

"Good morning" I smiled. "Sorry if I fell asleep on your shoulder last night."

"Don't worry about it." He said. "You were sleeping quite peacefully."

I blushed as his comment.

How embarrassing! I thought to myself.

"Oh..uh...heh..." I was too nervous to talk.

"Hey!"

Bulma was shouting from the balcony, waving to catch our attention.

"It's done! Your room is ready Tapion! Wanna check it out!?" She shouted.

"Now this, I gotta see!" Tapion said in excitement.

"Cool!" Trunks yelled

"Come on Tapion." I said as I grabbed his hand and headed inside.

Once we got to Bulma's lab, she led us to a different department where Tapions room is.

"Welcome to your new chamber" Bulmas said as she pointed to a life-sized model of the music box.

"Woah. This looks awesome Bulma!" I said, complimenting her job.

"It took me the entire night but I tried my best." She said as she yawned.

"This is perfect. Thank you so much." Tapion said as he bowed towards Bulma.

"No problem. The frequency in the room should be sufficient enough for you to sleep peacefully. Basically, you shouldn't have a problem sleeping." She said with another yawn.

"Great! You can finally catch up on your sleep!" I shouted in excitement.

"Now if you excuse me, I think I'm gonna head to bed." Bulma said with a third yawn.

"Thank you all so much." Tapion said with a smile.

"We'll let you catch up on your sleep. I have to talk to the others about Hoi at Goku's" I said

Tapion nodded his head and smiled.

We all left his room so he can get comfortable.

"I already called them about your meeting. So they should be waiting for you." Bulma said.

"Got it. Thanks again Bulma" I said as I gave he a thumbs up.

"No problem. Take Trunks with you. I'm going to sleep." She said as she waved off and headed to her room.

"Come on Trunks." I said as I headed off to Goku's house.

"Wait for me!" Trunks called out.

Inside Goku's house, there was Goku, ChiChi, Gohan, Videl, Goten and Krillin.

I explained everything that happened from the moment Hoi attacked us to Tapions past.

"Woah. I owe that guy an apology. I thought he was the one who summoned the bottom half." Gohan said.

"Sorry if we second guessed him" Videl said with an apologetic look.

"No need to apologize. Tapion is a very understanding person." I said with a smile.

"Well, where is the guy now?" Krillin asked.

"Bulma managed to build a life-sized music box for his room. He should be sleeping now." I said.

"Has he slept at all?" Goku asked.

"Based on what he told me, Tapion hasn't slept ever since he was freed from the box." I answered.

"Woah. That's crazy to not sleep for so long." Videl said in shock.

"He's so cool." I hear Goten whispering to Trunks.

"I know! He's really cool!" Trunks whispered back.

"Anyways, do you know where Hoi went ever since the attack?" Gohan asked.

"No. Sadly I don't. He managed to escape before I could catch him." I said, closing my fist.

"Well, at least you are safe and not badly harmed from him." ChiChi said.

All of a sudden, the phone started ringing as ChiChi answered it.

We were all silent as we let ChiChi talk on the phone.

At first, ChiChi sounded cheerful on the phone but then she had a serious look on her face.

"Is everything alright ChiChi?" Goku asked.

"That was Bulma on the phone." She said, sounding worried. "She said that something has happened to Tapion and she needs you all there now!"

"What!?" I got up and ran outside.

I didn't wait for anyone. I just went straight to Capsule Corp.

"Wait for us Saiya!" Gohan said as everyone else followed after me.

I flew as fast I could to Capsule Corp.

I hope Bulma and Tapion are okay!

Just wait for me Tapion!

"Thank goodness you guys are here!" Bulma shouted as she hugged Trunks.

She was standing outside of home, waiting for us to come back.

"What happened Bulma!? Where's Tapion?" I asked, trying to catch my break from flying so fast.

"I was sleeping in my room until I head a loud explosion coming from my lab. I rushed to Tapions room and noticed that he disappeared. Even the room I built was destroyed." Bulma said in a disappointed tone.

"Oh no!" I shouted as we all ran to the destroyed room.

The chamber was broken into pieces. There was a huge hole on the wall that led outside.

"Let's just hope he's not in bad condition like this room." Goku said while looking around.

We were all wondering around the room investigating.

Where are you Tapion?

I walked through the gigantic hole and noticed Tapion, just a couple feet ahead of me.

"Tapion!" I shouted as I ran towards him.

"Saiya..." Tapion said with all the strength he had.

He succumbed to his injuries and fell to the ground.

I ran next to him and held onto him.

"Tapion! Tapion!" I screamed, trying to make sure he's alive. "Say something Tapion!"

"Is Tapion okay!?" Trunks asked worriedly.

"I'm...fine..." Tapion said in a weak tone.

"What happened to you?" Krillin asked.

"Did that monster get out!?" Bulma questioned.

"No. It tried to escape but I managed to stop him. But we have another problem. The lower half of Hirudegarn is attacking the city again." Tapion said.

"Oh no!" Videl shouted as she looked at the direction of the city.

"I don't know how much longer I can hold it. The upper body is really struggling to free itself. If it gets out, it'll get stronger and Hirudegarn would be whole again." Tapion said

All of a sudden, he started screaming in pain.

"Please! Hold on Tapion! You need medicial help!" I said as I held his hand.

"No! The only way to stop Hirudegarn from becoming whole is if you kill me!" Tapion shouted.

"W-What?" I was shocked.

Kill Tapion!?

"Don't touch him!" Shouted a voice.

We all looked around to find the source of the voice and we see Hoi along with Hirudegarn's legs.

"Hoi!" Videl said in disgust.

"Oh no! It's Hirudegarn!" Tapion shouted in fear.

"Come on Gohan!" Goku shouted.

Gohan nodded his head as the both of them went to fight Hirudegarn's bottom half of the body.

Tapion lets go of me and picked up his ocarina.

He was about to play the instrument but Hoi used his kunai and hit the instrument away from his hand.

"I will not allow you to play that stupid thing." Hoi said.

The instrument skidded across the floor until it hit the wall.

Trunks ran for the ocarina and picked it up.

"No! Don't you dare!" Hoi shouted and he ran after Trunks.

"Here Goten!" Trunks shouted as he tossed the instrument to Goten.

Goten caught it and ran towards Tapion.

"Give that back!" Hoi screamed

He started chasing after Goten.

"Saiya!" Goten tossed the ocarina to me.

"Here you go Tapion." I said as I gave the ocarina back to him.

"Thank you Saiya." Tapion said as he got up and grabbed the ocarina.

He was going to play the instrument but then dropped it.

He held onto his body as if he was in massive pain.

"Aahh!" Tapion was shouting.

"W-What's wrong!?" I asked.

"I can't...hold it in!" Tapion screamed.

"No! Fight it Tapion!" I shouted back.

"I-I...I can't!" Tapion screamed once more.

I sense a great aura coming out from Tapions body.

It was making it's way towards Hirudegarn's lower body.

"Woah. What the heck is that?" Goku said.

We all looked up at the sky and saw Hirudegarn's true body.

He was a gigantic bug like demon with wings.

This is the demon god Hirudegarn.

"Saiya..." Tapion called my name weakly as she fainted on the ground.

"Oh no! Tapion!" I kneel next to him and held his head on my lap.

"Is he okay?" Trunks said as he and Goten ran up to us.

"I don't know. He's really hurt." I said worriedly.

Soon, we heard an evil laugh coming from Hoi.

"Hirudegarn is finally free! I would like to thank you all for the help!" He said with an evil grin.

I looked at Hoi and glared at him.

"No...He's free." Tapion said softly.

"Don't speak Tapion. You're really hurt." I said.

"Please...stop him.." He said.

"Our problem just got bigger guys." Gohan said.

I looked at Hirudegarn and then Tapion.

What should we do?
