Broly leaps out of bed, clutching his head and stumbling around his room "Kakarot… Kak- Kakarot!" He turns Super Saiyan and his energy causes the metal walls to bulge out slightly. Serenity pushes open the door to his room, running to him.
"Broly! Calm down!" He turns to her, his mind flashing back to the kiss that she had planted on him as a distraction.
His aura fades and he reverts to his base form, sighing deeply "Sorry, I was just remembering some things. Kakarot… apparently the person I was before obsessed over him and wanted him dead. Badly enough it drove him insane."
Serenity puts a hand on his arm "That's over now. That's not who you are anymore. Try to get some rest."
Broly nods "I would hate to impose, but, would you sleep in here with me? Being around you calms me."
Serenity giggles "My mom picked the perfect name for me, didn't she."
Broly nods and she looks up at Broly, blushing darkly "Yeah, I wouldn't mind… course there isn't much room on that bed, especially with all those muscles…."
Broly shrugs "You can sleep on top of me."
Serenity shudders and if she could blush any deeper, she did, her ears burning "Yeah, sure."
In the morning Broly wakes up in bed alone, stretching his tired muscles and working to wake up his right arm. The smell of breakfast wafts into the room and he walks into the kitchen, smiling at Ariel who greeted him with a bowl of rice "Eat up. Serenity says that you guys are all going to train together, since there are only 4 days left until the Cell Games."
Broly sits down with the two women, eating his fill, which was three times what Serenity managed to eat. He tilts his head a little "How do you expect to have enough energy if you do not eat more food?"
Serenity shrugs "Unlike you Saiyans, I don't require an entire buffet of food to have enough energy to walk five feet or throw a couple punches."
Broly chuckles "We do tend to eat quite a lot, don't we?"
Serenity nods and smiles, finishing her plate of food and then hugging her mom "I'm going to go get ready and we are going to meet up with the Z Fighters. Try not to get into too much trouble while we are gone mom."
Ariel giggles "Don't worry, you know me, I'll just be here tinkering."
Serenity smiles and runs into her room, putting on her gi and then she runs back out, taking Broly's hand "Bye mom." Ariel waves to her as they teleport away, causing her to fall backwards in her chair from shock. Serenity and Broly appear behind Goku, and Serenity grins "Hi Goku."
Goku spins around, jumping a little and yelling out "Jeez, did you do Instant Transmission again?! That scares me!"
Bulma, who was there with her infant son, Vegeta, Future Trunks and Krillin, smirks "How do you think we feel then Goku?"
He hangs his head "Okay guys, I get it, you don't like me materializing out of thin air."
Serenity puts up her hands "Okay, training session should go as such. I'll spar with Goku, and Vegeta will spar with Broly. Krillin… is here. Hi Krillin."
He shrugs "I'm here to spectate, same as Bulma."
Serenity nods "Of course. And when Vegeta gets tired, Trunks can trade out with him and Broly can spar with Trunks a while."
Vegeta folds his arms "Are you kidding me? I don't plan on losing to Broly, or bowing out to let my son fight him."
Serenity folds her arms "Leave it to Vegeta to make things difficult."
Vegeta sighs and tilts his head back "Fiiine, I'll play along with your plan. So what, we are just going to keep swapping out training partners?"
Serenity nods "Basically. It's easy to fall into a rhythm if you train with one partner. Falling into a rhythm will leave you open for surprise attacks. Goku is especially prone to leaving himself open, something I saw when he fought Broly. And Broly has good instincts but not a lot of experience."
Broly cracks his knuckles "Let's not hold back Vegeta. I'm going to start out Super Saiyan."
Vegeta clenches his fist and his hair turns gold and spikes up "Now you're talking." They fly off a short distance from the other spectators, trading blows and rocking the sky, clouds dissipating as the energy they let off vaporizes them.
Serenity turns to Goku "Alright, before we start Goku, I've noticed that I am able to learn moves as you perform them. I was wondering if you had any other powerful techniques you would be willing to impart. Anything that can help me with Cell."
Goku scratches his chin "I dunno. I can't think of any. You know the Kamehameha, right?"
She nods "I saw you use it against Broly, and I knew it just like that."
He whistles "That's impressive. I can't think of any."
Bulma tilts her head "What about Kioken?"
Serenity narrows her eyes "Kio-what?"
Goku snaps his fingers "Hey, that's right. But I don't think you can learn this one just by observing it."
Serenity shrugs "It's worth a shot."
Goku clenches his fists and his aura turns red "Kioken!"
Serenity nods a little "Impressive." He powers down and she clenches her fists, her aura spiking. Her aura turns red and her power doubles, making Goku whistle "Yeah, just like that. Man, you make this look so easy. I trained for what felt like years on King Kai's planet to learn that technique. Keep in mind, it wears on your body, so don't overuse it, and don't increase it's potency until you are used to it."
Serenity nods "Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. This will be perfect against Cell."
Goku clenches his fists "Come on, let's spar now, I'm excited to see how well you can handle yourself."
