Well the epilogue turned out shorter than I was hoping, but I'm not too good with the emotional tear-felt happy ending thing, and couldn't think of any good dialogue. At some point I think I considered blowing up the planet as a joke, but decided it was a terrible joke. Originally I was gonna continue the story a few years later or something like that to keep the story going, but I probably won't now. I've got another story planned, but it won't be Bardock based. It will probably still turn out a lot more violent than originally intended though.


"How did you-"

"How are you still alive?" tears ran down Tomita's face.

They were surrounded by their remaining allies. A few Serrated had shown up when they heard the commotion, and stood with the crowd. Their tension was silent but obvious.

"Aregano…" Svinich's face was delicate; his eyes were sad, "he showed up just as I realized I was about to die, he pushed me out of the way…"

"He didn't make it."

The surrounding Saiyans sulked in silence; They tried to be strong.

"I owe him my life."

As Bardock had expected, Svinich hadn't taken his brother's death too well. On top of Aregano's sacrifice, was too much to take.

He broke down crying; A rare sight to his fellow Saiyans. But they had always been different from their ancestors, so it was bound to turn out that they could feel emotions like that.

After a few days he was able to move on though with the help of Tomita.


Vinalla found a nice cave nearby and declared it her new home. She would often visit the village for sparring sessions with Bardock.

At first Thorza was a bit jealous over their relationship. Their first meeting resulted in the destruction of several mountains.

They eventually settled their differences though, and the Saiyans were glad that got cleared up.

Thorza still considered Bardock "hers" for a while, but they did eventually settle on a sort of odd friendship (Thorza was still overly protective, but at least she didn't keep him prisoner).

Svinich stepped up to take over his father's position as the mayor or head-elder or whatever Gin had been as they never really settled on a title.

Celera and Turna returned to a village in ruins, but they were thankful to have gotten the children away from it all.

The village was rebuilt with the help of Vinalla and some of the Serrated. Bardul decided to live with the Saiyans after the battle and join the guardsmen, but promised Thorza he'd visit often.

She was proud of her son.


Of course Tomita and Svinich ended up married, and left the guardsmen in Bardock and Cob's hands.

Junipa went on to join the guardsmen in later years too, and gained a reputation similar to her father's.

For the most part everything was fine (for the time being anyway…), and life got peaceful again.

Of course the planet was home to a couple of races who got pretty violent every now and then, so things were never too quite, but at least nobody died (well there may have been an accident or two…).


Bardock kept himself in shape, constantly sparring with Vinalla, Tomita, Thorza, Cob, and Svinich. Sometimes they all fought each other at the same time, sometimes they paired up or worked in three-person teams.

Bardock found his place in life. He was happy for once. He eventually found a wife (Not saying who) and had three children.

He may or may not have died in battle.


And that as they say, is that...
