Government Bureau
"A tail?", questions Reed Richards as his eyebrow is raises as Zane focuses on the conversation.
"Yes.", said Mig'Yil, "He doesn't know a lot about his race or even the name of his race, but he does have a name."
"What is?", interrupts Zane.
"You seem curious.", comments Mig'Yil, "What does he have to do with you."
"This young man seems to might have a connection to whoever this person you maybe talking about.", explains Reed Richards, "He landed to our planet about 15 Earth years ago."
"The same time as Scalli.", though Mig'Yil, "If my ask young one, do you have a tail."
"Not for the last 15 years no.", Zane jokes, "But seriously I never had a tail, that I know of."
"Do you know what race you came from?", asks Mig'Yil.
"Nope.", said Zane as he quickly shrugs his shoulder.
"All we have is this.", said Dr. Richards as he shows a holographic picture of Zane's space pod.
"In that case, if what you're saying is true, than I can't take you the other at this time.", said Mig'Yil.
"Why not?", asks Susan.
"Because we can't allow competitors in the Battleground tournament to interact with outsiders during this time.", explains Mig'Yil, "Don't be offended, it just a rule that we can't make any exception to.
"I understand that, but is there really no other way to meet this person?", asks Reed Richards.
"There is no other way.", said Mig'Yil, "The only other way for an outsider to meet him is be a competitor yourself."
"We're not here to fight.", explains Richards, "Can we wait until after the tournament?"
"You can, but there might be a problem with that.", said Mig'Yil.
"Why is that?"
"You see-"
"It might take an entire year.", interrupts D'Lon.
"AN ENTIRE YEAR!", shouts Johnny.
"The tournament is place into two events.", explains Mig'Yil, "The first and current event is the opening, where the battle royale and the 128 sections tournament. The final event, is where the final 16 of the 128 tournament and the surviving 16 of the battle royale compete in a 32 tournament."
"So for an entire year, nobody from outside this planet can meet with a participant unless the participant is from outside the planet or the outsider is a participant.", explains D'Lon, "It just a tradition we follow."
"So unless we enter this tournament, we have to wait an entire year for this guy!?", questions Johnny, "Well, that all for this trip."
"Don't get your underwear in a wad, Matchhead.", says Ben as walks forward, "All we have to do is enter this thing and than we get a chance to talk to him, it just that simple."
"I don't know about you "Tall, Dark, and Ugly", but I don't want my face to be pounded by some random alien.", said Johnny.
"I'm not a fighter, so I'll sit this one out.", said Susan.
"I'm not a supporter of violence, so I'll leave it to you Ben.", said Reed.
"In that case", said Ben as he put his fist into his other hand, "since there no killing involve, it just nice good fashion brawl. There nothing wrong with getting into a brawl once in a while. Just leave this to Aunt Petunia's favorite blue-eyed nephew. "
"Umm, actually", interrupts Zane as he nervously raises his hand up, "I think want to.. fight...too."
Everybody stops and looks at Zane as he finds himself in the center of everyone.
"Listen, kid", said Ben, "I know ya want to find out more about ya self, but ya don't have take part of this."
"Actually, it kind of looks interesting", said Zane, "and sort of fun. And like Mr. Grimm said, there is no killing so it almost like a sport like mixed martial arts competition. It also raise the chances of talking to this guy..."
"Dragon, I know that there no killing, but something might happen where you could die accidentally, also something could happen that could injure you permanently..."
"I know the risk Dr. Richards", interrupts Zane, "but it my choice and, no offense Mr. Grimm, but I want to rely on my power to do this."
"Don't mention it kid.", said Ben.
"Reed, I know you don't want this, but we don't have a say on what he wants to do.", said Susan.
Reed Richards just stood there,, holding his chin as he is thinking on what to do and to say. After 5 seconds, he reach his answer.
"Sue has a point.", admits Reed, "But we should see if you have the requirements to enter."
"That up to the sections that still haven't picked a representative for Battleground.", explains Mig'Yil, "You need to talk to the organizer of those sections."
"And your just in time", said D'Lon as she has a holographic tablet of her hand, "Section 41 and 92 still haven't decided on a representative."
"So let just go talk to them.", said Zane.
"Section 41 might be interested in bring in Ben Grimm, but as for you...", pauses D'Lon, "No offense but Section 41 might want someone who with more experience and reputation and let just say Section 99 had recent string..."
"That okay.", interrupts Zane, "Let just go meet with the organizer."
"Actually", interrupts Mig'Yil, "Before we leave, there something I need to ask Reed Richards. You five may go one on without us."
"Are you sure?", asks Reed.
"It actually crime that was committed recently. We are trying to to keep it away from the public, but we don't have the knowledge to analyze everything about the crime.", said Mig'Yil.
"I'm not a detective, but I can see what I can do.", said Reed.
"It incredibly important for our culture. If word about this gets out, there will be panic."
After a minute, Reed reached a decision and says, "Everyone, I'll meet up with you later."
"Are you sure Reed?", asks his wife.
"I can take care of myself.", assures Reed, "Just go on without me, I'll see you later."
As the others left the bureau, Reed turns to Mig'Yil who has a worried face.
"What is it that you need my help in?", asks Reed who a bit suspicious, "What crime was committed?"
"You see, long ago, the winner of the first tournament, Qien was buried deep in a temple outside of the settlement.", explains Mig'Yil, "Many years, we check on the temple twice per year, but a week ago, the entrance of the temple was broken into. There was no evidence that could lead us to the offender and the door that leads to the room of the tomb of Qien wasn't broken into."
"So your asking me to play detective for this mystery?"
"Yes.", answers Mig'Yil, "We are asking for your help."
Meanwhile
In Battleground, there were a lot of different locations. While criminals, mercenaries, lost soldiers and warriors usually comes to the planet for the tournament, they usually stay near the coliseum, where they have hotels and bars just for them. They usually don't go to the sections unless it for business. The people living in Battleground aren't warriors. At least 65% aren't. Most just watch the fighters from the stands. There are many businesses, schools, bars, and restaurants within the sections, but the quality of each depends on the sections.
In the bar known as the Crog, the Skrull known as Dait enters the bar. He sees at least 15 people in the bar, most are combatants who failed to enter the current tournament, except for one. He is sitting next to the bartender, a Centenarian named Loj. His spiky back hair is recognizable as Dait met him when he was a young boy. A young boy who was full of potential, but talked too big for his own good. It wasn't until Dait and other fighters beat some sense into him is when the boy shuts up and focus on improving himself. That boy turn young man name is Scalli.
"Aren't you a little still considered a hatchling?", says Dait, as hatchling is a term for someone who young for the Skrulls.
"Don't worry, it nonalcoholic.", says Scalli, who wearing a black garb with two dark blue strips and his tail being worn like a belt, who wearing a greeting smile, "What brings you from your government job, Dait?"
"I heard that a woman with similar features as you was here.", answers Dait as Scalli loses his smile, "I'm guessing that you came here looking for answers."
"I came here too late.", said Scalli, "As soon as I heard she was here, and flew immediately from Section 4 to here. I miss her by 15 minutes. I only got some information from Loj over here."
"Hey if I knew that she was important, I could have stopped her. Then again she had a mean look on her face so I would have backed off, but hey, I'm a bartender with no fighting skills.", Loj defends himself.
"So what is her story?", Dait asks Loj.
"From what I heard and told the kid here, she apparently space pirate turned privateer."
"Privateer?", wonders Dait, "Who is she working for?"
"Anyone that hires her. First the Shi'ar, than Kree, and now the Badoon. From what I got from a member of her crew, she came from a planet called Skaar."
"Skaar huh.", said Dait who was uninterested in the planet, "Is that her home planet?"
"No he said she landed there as a young child from somewhere beyond the galaxy. He doesn't know much about that. But after she apparently escaped the planet, but was found by the group of pirates she is with.", explains Loj, "Few years later she killed her captain, took over the crew and became well-known in her part of the galaxy to the point where the Nova Corps send squad after squad after her."
Loj moved in closer to the ears of both Scalli and Dait who both lend their ears.
"From what he said, they used to have a total of 15 battleships under their command.", whispers Loj.
"Used to?", questions Scalli.
"They had a little encounter with a former herald of a certain devourer."
Both Scalli and Dait eyes' widen as they knew what Loj was talking about. A being that guided the World-Eater to planet for him to feast upon. The Asgardian armor, The Destroyer, Firelord, Terrax The Tamer, both Air-Walkers, and the most infamous, the Silver Surfer. Each of them, especially when they burrow with the power the World Eater holds, the Power Cosmic, can destroy the species of an entire planet while most can just destroy it without the Power Cosmic. Just the fact that a few remains of the pirate crew remains boggles the minds of Scalli and Dait.
"Which herald was it?", Dait asks in curiousness, "If it was the Surfer, than it understandable because he the one who most likely show mercy."
Loj shakes his head, saying no, "It was Firelord. 12 battleship in a matter of 2 or 3 minutes. They manage to escape him, only to encounter the Nova Corps. From what he man described, it felt like they sent 15% of their total members. They all fell one by one, only for their captain to be the last one still standing. 1 on at most 75 and for 2 hours from what the guy described as he was conscious at the time. She ether divide them so that one might stray off and she picks them off one by one or guerrilla warfare. Ether way, she killed 9 Corpsmen, 5 Millennians, 2 Denearians, and injured 13 Corpsmen, 7 Millennians, 3 Denearian, and 1 Centurion."
"16 Nova Corps members killed and 24 members injured.", Scalli counted as he is shocked.
In the Nova Corps, the space police force which contains 500 hundred members, all sharing a near limitless power called the Nova Force. Each member is given small fragments of this power. Centurions are the top-tier of the Nova Corps. Denearians is the middle tier and hold 75% of what Centurion are given. Than Millennians which are lower tier and hold 50 %. Then they're the Corpsmen who are entry-level and hold 25% of what Centurion hold.
"This sounds like quite a woman.", comments Dait as he is impressed and shock that a someone can take on 75 members that isn't a threat to the universe, "And that after her pirate gang met Firelord."
"So what happened after she was captured?", asks Scalli now that he is more interested learning about this woman.
"The man doesn't know much, but it seems the woman managed to get what left of them out of prison by means unknown.", said Loj, "Ether way, they escaped and became privateers, working with governments part of the Galactic Council. As a result, the Nova Corps can't touch them unless it worth facing the government they're dealing with."
"And now she here, in a planet that not under the Galactic Council.", said Scalli, "But than again, not many outsiders notice us unless they are people who want a good fight."
"That probably why she is here.", suggests Dait with a smirk, "She wants a good fight. In that case we should give her one."
"Hey you're not actually getting excited about facing her.", said a shocked Loj, "She practically fought 75 Nova Corps members."
At that moment, Scalli stood up. Loj and Dait looks at him as they can tell that what Loj told Scalli about the woman is affecting him. His arms are shaking as his face is hidden as he turn his head down
"Look even Scalli is afraid.", said Loj.
"What are you talking?", questions Dait.
Dait stands up and walks behind Scalli. He than raises Scalli's head to let Loj see that Scalli wasn't afraid, nervous, or losing his sanity from the power of this woman, but it was a more like smirk from excitement. Scalli than starts laughing from the excitement of facing this woman.
"Ka-ka-ka! I-I just can't wait.", declares Scalli, "It just damn too exciting"
"Your excited to face a woman to faced 15% of the Nova Corps.", said Loj confused before sighing, "Well that just like you."
"Did you sense this woman power?", asks Dait.
"Yes I did.", answers Scalli, "And let say this, in a scale between 1-10 between me and her, she is "10" and I'm only "1" because that how low I can go."
"And your still excited?", questions Loj as he a little dumbfounded from Scalli.
"In a fight between me and her, she has the better chances of winning. Like 95%.", said Scalli said with a serious face before smirking, "But I still have 5%. Just because she can win on paper, doesn't mean she going to escape that fight unscathed. I'll just have to bet everything on that 5% if I want to win."
"You always talked big, even as a younger hatching.", said Dait as he took a sip of his drink, "But it good to see that your unfazed. No... your more determined."
"You damn right I am.", said Scalli as he starts chugging his drink and finishes it, "Another Loj! I want to be less thirsty when I eat later!"
"Well he getting heated up.", snarks Loj as fills Scalli glass.
As Scalli and Dait are drinking their drinks, another guy comes into the bar. He is pink-skinned Kree with a thuggish face, shaved head with a brown vest, white sash, and black pants. He looks around and spots what he was looking for.
"It been a long time, you traitor.", the Kree said to Scalli.
Scalli turns around to see the Kree. His eye's widen a bit, but returns to normal as he sees the Kree glaring.
"Are you... Jarik?", wonders Scalli as he gets off his seat.
"Who else?", angrily said the Kree known as Jarik, "It been like what? 4 years?"
"That sounds... about right.", Scalli said as he pauses in the middle of the sentence, "What brings you here?"
"In case you've haven't heard, I been picked to become the representative of "my" section, Section 128.", declares Jarik, "But I bet you been too busy living in such a high-class section to even care now."
"I told you, I don't care about high-class, it just that since the organizer of that section promised me a training ground to help me get stronger."
"And you abandoned everybody that you said you care about.", said Jarik.
"I do care!", shouts Scalli.
"Than why haven't you visit since 4 years ago!?", questions Jarik., "That always been one of your problems! You care too much about becoming stronger that you say that you still care for others, but then you leave the people who took care of you and kept away the thugs until you stand on your own feet!"
"I grateful for that! I'm really am!", declares Scalli.
"Than why haven't you visit Rami?", said Jarik in a grudge like tone, "Her grave has been exactly that same as the rest of us left it."
Scalli just stood silent as he looks down for second. He then looks up and glares at Jarik.
"Why did enter? In matter of fact, how did you managed to have the strength to become a representative?", questions Scalli.
"This.", said Jarik as he removes the vest and sash.
Revealing on his lower torso and parts of the upper torso that were covered by the vest and sash were cybernetics. It was like his veins, but more techno.
"Those are...", said a shocked Scalli before Jarik cuts him off.
"Cybernetics.", explains Jarik, "Found a guy who willing to make me stronger for free, as long as I can be his test subject."
"For free!?", questions Scalli, "And you don't care about the consequences!?"
"Ronan the Accuser did the samething and he one of the most feared beings in the galaxy. I'll defeat you, win Battleground, and tell everybody why Section 128 is not a dump!", declares Jarik.
"Jarik, your not Ronan and I don't care what your reason is, but I won't lose to you.", declares Scalli.
"I'm not the same 4 years ago.", says Jarik as the cybernetics start to glow as his muscles starts to grow, "I'm different. More powerful. More than enough for you."
"In that case", said Scalli as he looks at Jarik, who about more than a feet taller than him, "Try to hit me."
"Hey!", calls out Loj, "You guys are part of the tournament! I don't want to my bar or get in trouble because you two can solve your problems!"
"Don't worry Loj", said Scalli in a cocky tone, "He won't lay a finger on me."
"Don't.", growls Jarik, "You of all people shouldn't underestimate me!"
Jarik goes for a fast punch at Scalli, which he easily dodges with little movement, fast reflexes and fast motion speed. Realizing he missed, Jarik than swings the arm he just used and try to back swing Scalli. Scalli ducks, but Jarik, with both arms away from each other, goes for a thunderclap at Scalli. As Scalli claps his hands with all his power, the resulting winds destroyed 3 tables as the others in the bar all start to get away from the battle. The thunderclap created a mess, but it didn't get Scalli as he is nowhere.
"Where did he go.", thinks Jarik as his eyes looks for what in front of him.
Suddenly, Jarik sees that his shadow was getting darker. He than sees that the shadows in front of him are getting darker as well. He than sees a violet light coming from behind him. He then realize what it was. He turns to see Scalli, making his hand like a gun as his index finger gathered his violet ki. He was holding his finger about an inch from Jarik's head. Using his thumb like a trigger, Scalli practically told Jarik "You can't win." Scalli disappears his ki as he than returns to his seat. Jarik, with an enraged expression, storms off out of the bar, before stopping and then looks at Scalli.
"Next time, it won't be that easy.", proclaims Jarik as he leaves as Scalli stares until he was gone.
As Scalli returns to his drink, he remembers his childhood. The orphanage in owned by the daughter of an exiled Spartoi. There, she took care of many children, because they remained of her when her father died when she was little. Her mother left her father to stay in the home planet of Spartax and allows her own daughter to leave as well. The daughter name is Rami.
Section 92
Section 92, if you were to determine the income this section is, it is lower middle class. In this section, there was less crime committed than most sections in Section 90-128. Two people are walking towards to a building in the middle of the section. It was Dragon (Zane) and D'Lon both of whom are now standing in front of the building. Awhile back, they arrive to Section 41 where they found the one floor building for Section 41 along with Ben, Sue, and Johnny. The organizer there wanted to see if Ben can pass a couple of test to see if he can part of the tournament. Due to the time they have, D'Lon and Zane left to the Section 92 immediately while Sue and Johnny stayed. Sue to support Ben and Johnny because a few Kree ladies caught his eye.
"So what is the organizer here?", asks Zane who pretty excited.
"Yep, but it not going to be easy.", explains D'Lon, "Gim, the organizer here is pretty desperate for a representative. Section 92 haven't made past the first round since 100 years ago. And rumors have it that a lot of people from pirate crew also want to enter by becoming Section 92 representative."
D'Lon than realize that Zane has already opened the door as about to go inside.
"Wait kid!", shouts D'Lon, who both a little flabbergasted and little insulted that he already left, as she though, "Wow, he remains me of Scalli when he was young."
Zane goes inside and found himself being looked at by a lot of tough and strong-looking people. All of them ether have weapons, scary looking armor of garbs, or all three and with Zane just wearing a gi with a cloak and a mask, he feels out-of-place.
"Please tell me this is the wrong place.", thought Zane nervously, "I feel out-of-place."
"Dragon! Don't take off like that", scorns D'Lon.
"Sorry, I got a little side track.", said Zane feeling a bit embarrassed.
"D'Lon!", yells an 8 feet human looking lizard or Badoon with a huge scar that goes across the left side of his face, "What brings you around here?"
"It been awhile Palace.", greets D'Lon, "I brought a new potential competitor for you."
"This brat?", said Palace as he inspects Zane, "Is he any good?"
"I don't know about that, but a member of the Earth team, the Fantastic Four, can vouch for him. You know", explains D'Lon as she leans in closer to Palace's eyes, "the ones that stopped the devourer from eating their planet."
"Really?", wonders Palace as he walks to Zane.
"Umm hello.", greets Zane as he is more nervous, "I'm Dragon. I can't give you my real name because I'm with people who don't know my real name. But then again they seen my face so they could just look up-"
Zane was than greeted by Palace with a punch to the face. Zane is sent crashing into part of the wall as he is seemingly knocked out.
"PALACE!? WHAT WAS THAT!?", questions D'Lon as she goes to check on Zane.
"If he couldn't dodge and block a punch like that, than he can't enter this.", Palace says as he felt it was justifiable.
"So you hit him when he was talking!?", said D'Lon who flabbergasted.
"OW!"
Everybody turns to the sound to see Zane getting up from the pieces of the smashed part of the wall.
"WHAT WAS THAT!?", complains Zane as there is a bruise of his left cheek, "WHAT KIND OF GUY RANDOMLY PUNCHES SOMEBODY WHO WAS TALKING!?"
Palace looks at Zane. He watches as Zane gets up and curses under his breath.
"Okay.", thought Palace as his impressed that Zane got up after a punch like that, "He can tryout."
Outside Crog
"Hey, do you really want a drink now?", asks a blonde female with a ponytail, blue eyes, and a black and blue sleeveless combat suit with armored leggings, blue gauntlets and with a sword to her right side, "Your master might get mad."
"He just told me not to grab any attention.", said a man with a gray robe, curly black hair, and blue eyes with glasses, "I can trust myself."
With them, is another male, but with white short hair, purple eyes, and wearing the same clothing as the woman, but his combat suit has sleeves and it black and purple, with dark purple gauntlets. The trio than walks into the bar. They looks around to that the bartender is picking up tables and two others, Scalli and Dait are looking at them.
"Crap.", comments the woman as she looks around, "What happened here?"
"Those three are-!?", thought Scalli as he remembers them from the battle royale, as they were part of the last 16 still standing.
We know more about one saiyan, but now we have more questions on the other. Just who is this other saiyan? That it for the latest chapter of Saiyan of Marvel. Remember to "Follow" if you Like the story enough to have alerts on when the next chapter is up and/or to "Favorite" it. Please feel free to leave a review if you want. Go to my profile as there is poll that ask the question "Should Shinji Ikari (Rebuild) be part of the shared Marvel Universe with Lelouch of the Atom and Saiyan of Marvel?" Go to my extras for more detail on the chance that he does gets his own story. Also, for visual aid on Scalli, he looks like a young Madara Uchiha.
P.S. The fact about the Nova Corps's lower tier using a certain percent of Centurion's power is more fan scaling. For this story let treat it like it true. Also, did anyone see the poster for the new Dragonball Z movie. I'm not going to spoil anything, but let say that a familiar face is playing a big role for the movie.
