Author Notes: I like throwing curve balls whenever I can.
Chapter 11: Universe 7's Crisis- Laplace
Earlier at Capsule Corps
17 was walking outside as he smiled out of the building, content that both his sister and her husband were now alright. He was wheeling out Krillin in a wheel chair, who like the others that were attacked, couldn't move at 100% due to the attacks of the other universe.
"I wonder where I'll take my family once I get that boat.," he said to himself.
"That boat won't be in your future. For your universe will be losing the tournament.," said a voice from above.
17 turned his gaze upwards to see an indigo skinned, yellow eyed alien with a red section on the top of his head with black spots on his body. He wore silver armor with extended shoulder guards and thigh guards.
"You're a fortune teller? You're not from around here I take it.," 17 said the figure.
"The past and the present always contain exactly the same knowledge. We also may regard the present state of the universe as the effect of its past and the cause of its future. Someone with the high enough intelligence to comprehend, which at a the current moment, with awareness of the past and future in addition to the present, would know all forces that set nature in motion, and all positions of all components of which all of nature is composed, if this intelligence were also vast enough to submit these data to process at an accelerated speed, it would embrace in a single hypothesis that the movements of the greatest bodies of the universe and those of the tiniest atom have always repeated the same process from its past and going into its future; for such an intellect nothing would be uncertain and the future, just like the past ,would be present before its eye.," explained the indigo skinned alien.
"You're all seeing is what I take from all the long-winded crap you're saying. Sorry to disappoint, but I don't like the kind of talk that things are inevitable...I know from first hand experience!," 17 replied as he created a barrier around the being and had generated several KI blasts to fire within the sphere.
As the blast detonated within the sphere, 17 smirked only for the indigo skinned warrior to appear behind him.
"Well, I'm thinking I should try something that 16 would likely do in this-," 17 said with a smirk before the being struck him, causing the android to turn entirely gray.
"Stay there as your universe vanishes into oblivion.," said the indigo skinned alien as he vanished. It had all happened in an instant, Krillin was shocked at the arrival of the enemy and then 17 was frozen.
Yamcha then walked outside as he noticed the now monochrome frozen in surprise.
"What the hell?!," he screamed.
"So that's what happened?! Damn! And I felt his KI briefly and he was like super tough now. The bastard who must've done it- has gotta be super tough!," Goku cursed aloud, which caught King Kai off guard.
"What was that?!," asked the blue skinned Kai.
"Eh, heh, heh...do you have anybody else that can fill the slot?," asked the orange clothed Saiyan.
"Of course not you moron! I bet the tournament's gonna be filled with monsters! At most, it'll be a few seconds of buying time!," replied King Kai angrily.
Suddenly, a car drove to King Yemma's offices and opened to reveal Freeza.
"Freeza! What're you doing here? I can pick you up later.," Goku replied.
"You seem to be in a conundrum of sorts. Allow me to remedy the situation...Are the Ginyu Force still here or have you already reincarnated?," Freeza replied.
King Kai turned around in horror as he yelled,
"Why is he here?!"
"Goku came to get him and Cell! It was a major risk by the way!," Baba replied.
A horizontal line opened up a dimensional portal and out stepped out Cell.
"I prefer to travel by my own means, rathe than traveling in that cramped car.," replied the bio-android.
"Oi, you're supposed to wait. I can handle this on my own.," Goku replied as he noticed Cell charging an all too familiar finger blast.
"...what you're you doing?!," Goku yelled as Cell fired a Death Beam at Gregory's chest, critically injuring him to the Saiyan woman's shock.
"He personally ruined the aesthete of the team so he's out. He's dying...given he already died because of you.," Cell remarked.
"Oh my, why are you capable of using my technique?," Freeza asked.
"I was made from his, Vegeta, Piccolo, you and your father's cells.," Cell explained to the white skinned alien with a tail.
"You have been a failure...since you only have two good donors after all. You lab experiment gone wrong.," Freeza chuckled with a snide comment.
"You merely can't comprehend perfection when you see it.," Cell replied.
"What was that?," Freeza said with slight anger.
"Knock it off! We can't go killin' each other before the tournament even starts!," Goku interjected.
"Oh right! Where was I? What about the Ginyu Force?," Freeza asked King Kai.
"Well, Ginyu, Jeice and Recoome have all reincarnated, but Guldo and Burter haven't due to their stubbornness keeping them from being reborn.," King Kai explained with a sweat drop.
"Good, their abilities are much more useful. Recoome's only usefulness is his endurance and lets himself gets hurt far too much. Ginyu's trump card is faulty on average and I get another skilled blaster like Jeice anywhere. Speed and Guldo's special tricks are more beneficial for this tournament. Though, Goku might not agree...not that he has a choice.," Freeza explained before turning his attention to Goku.
Goku grimaced in reluctant agreement. The Saiyan woman was very angry at Freeza's presence and now Cell for hurting Gregory so brutally.
Baba remained quiet as the tension grew thicker.
Capsule Corpse
Bulma had the Pilaf trio take 17 inside for testing in order to figure out how to undo his condition. Everyone had gathered, looking disheartened, angry and/or confusion at the events that had transpired.
"Seems like some sort of paralysis, but there's some weird energy coming from it, it kinda feels like sort my time machine juts out.," she theorized.
Suddenly, Dende, Old Kai, Kibitio and Shin teleported in front of the group.
"Oh, you're back. Where have you been? Everything's gone to-," Beerus interrogated the Supreme Kai before being interrupted by another group suddenly appearing before them.
Goku, King Kai, Baba and five individuals, four of which were very well known by the others.
"Shit...," Beerus concluded with a blasé tone of voice.
"Indeed, a shit storm is about to occur.," Whis said indifferently.
"I AM SORRY LORD SUPREME KAI!," yelled King Kai.
"WHY DO YOU CALL YOURSELF KING KAI?! IT'S BEYOND PRETENTIOUS!," yelled Old Kai.
"I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY!," apologized King Kai.
"It's alright-What- WHAT HAPPENING?!," asked Shin the Supreme Kai.
"17's FROZEN! AND THAT'S THE GUY WHO DID IT...OH SHIT! IT'S ONE OF THOSE FIVE GUYS THAT PLAYED A GAME TO KILL US ON NAMEK! TWO OF THE GUYS THAT TRIED TO KILL US ON NAMEK! THAT GUY TRIED TO DO IT WITH A TREE!," shouted Krillin as he noticed the two aliens with Goku. One was a tallest, reptile like humanoid with bluish-purple skin, red irises, pupil-less eyes, and many small spots on his body. The other was a short round alien with light green skin and four eyes; two small ones located like a humans eyes and two much larger eyes located at the sides of his head.
"Wait, there's other universes that we have to fight or else ours will go kaput? And there's guys higher than Lord Freeza? And...," the small green alien in a asked Goku before noticing Vegeta.
"VEGETA!," Guldo yelled out before Vegeta threw a dog biscuit at him.
"GULDO! HOW'S HAVING YOUR HEAD BACK?!," Vegeta yelled to Guldo with a smirk.
"LORD FREEZA LET ME KILL HIM!," asked Guldo.
"FREEZA?! YOU BROUGHT BACK HIM BACK?!," asked Vegeta as soon as he noticed the white tyrant.
"OH VEGETA! TIME TO SEE IF YOU LIKE BEING PUMMELED THIS TIME!," Freeza yelled as he turnt into
"THIS WAS LORD FREEZA'S TRUE FORM?! AND HE'S NOW GOLD? WHY IS VEGETA BLUE?!," the blue alien asked aloud.
"Clearly, he's still processing the faaaacts-OH YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING!?," yelled Vegeta as he noticed the familiar green armored bio-android.
"I'M BACK!," Cell declared.
"EXPLAIN KAKAROT! HE HUMILIATED ME, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, HE KILLED TRUNKS ONCE!," Vegeta yelled in anger.
"FATHER-WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!, HE KILLED 16 AND YOU! WHAT'S GOING ON YOUR HEAD TO THINK THIS IS A GOOD IDEA?!" asked Gohan angrily.
"WAIT, IS THAT CELL?!," Videl asked in shock.
"HE TRIED TO KILL OUR BABY BOY!," Chichi screamed.
"WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?! HE ATE 17 & 18 ONCE TO REACH HIS PERFECT FORM!," Krillin yelled out.
"HE HAD HIS CHILDREN NEARLY BEAT US TO DEATH!," yelled Yamcha.
"I NEARLY DIED TRYING TO HOLD HIM BACK!," Tien acknowledge.
"THAT GUY ATE COUNTLESS PEOPLE!," yelled Piccolo.
"THAT THING NEEDS TO KEEP THE HELL AWAY FROM ME! MY DAUGHTER! THE BOYS! AND VIDEL'S BABY!," 18 yelled out uncharacteristically.
"THERE BETTER BE REASON FOR THIS GOKU!," yelled Bulma.
"OH MY GOD! HE'S BACK TO KILL ME FOR SAYING I BEAT HIM!," Hercule screamed.
"WHO'S THAT LADY! CAN YOU FIND A WAY FOR ME TO DATE HER?!," asked Roshi.
"I DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE YELLING ABOUT!," Buu shouted.
"EVERYTHING'S GONE TO HELL!," Pilaf yelled aloud.
"GOKU, IS THIS WHAT YOU THINK WILL LEAD US TO VICTORY?!," Shin asked.
"I DON'T LIKE THIS!," Goten cried.
"WHY IS YOUR DAD DOING THIS?!," Trunks asked aloud.
"YES! I HAD NO OTHER WAY!," Goku yelled out.
"Sigh...is there anything else that-," Beerus asked before a time machine rippled through the sky and landed in the front yard and a young man with shoulder length purple hair emerged from it. It was a Trunks from an alternate timeline where the Dragon Balls were destroyed and 17 & 18 were destroyed.
"Hello Goku, I see that you're...," Future Trunks said before noticing Freeza and Cell.
Without a word, the shocked Future Trunks went back into the time machine and traveled back in time.
After that moment of confusion, Beerus said with a cold amount of seriousness-
"You've got the team together, but you're sure as hell not going to be the team leader this time around. You've caused a lot of crap this time around to be excused by having it laughed easily."
Goku looked around with the others nodding with a look of betrayal, intense fury, confusion, dismay, etc. He lowered his head.
This is worse than I thought it was gonna be.
Next Chapter: Everyone is dealing with the team members that Goku has selected for the Tournament of Power while the members train to get stronger.
