Chapter 21 (Dax's Ultimate power)
After what felt like 4 hours we heard a couple voices heading our way. We figured it was the Saiyan creatures coming to get us. We weren't wrong, they opened the cell and I looked at Dax who was about to attack but I got his attention before he did anything. We walked down a long hallway followed by tons of creatures and we then entered a large room in the middle of the ship. We followed the two creatures who led us to the Large arena surrounded by bleachers, seemingly going on forever. Then we arrived in front of the throne where we saw the Saiyan and what we thought were the 5 lieutenants standing around him. We went to the middle of the arena and when we got there the Saiyan told us the rules. "no touching the ground outside the ring and no interfaces in a fight. Then YOU and the halfling with a good punch will take on two each and the Frieza Clan member will take one as to not break a nail." After he was done we went to our side and sat down on the bench. The only thing we could hear was cheering for the lieutenants to rip us apart. After a little while the Saiyan called for two lieutenants to come to the middle, then he called Dax. Dax just looked at me for a little bit, his eyes made it obvious he was trying to say goodbye. I just looked at him trying to keep from talking and then one of the creatures pushed him to the middle.
Dax looked terrified but got in his fighting stance and right when the sound of the bell was heard he went straight to Super Saiyan which shook the Saiyan for a bit. "it seems things are gonna be more fun than I thought." The Saiyan said. Dax ignored this statement and looked at his opponents who had by far the most features out of any of the ones seen before, they even seemed to have a bit of color but still seemed black to the core. The creatures Ki was even black giving it a soulless feel to all of them. This made Dax most uneasy about the fight ahead.
Dax took off at top speed just to be sure that he landed the first blow on one of the lieutenants. However when he did that the other lieutenant hit him hard in the face sending him flying back towards the edge. He recovered quickly and stopped just on the edge then took off at top speed again, after the one who had hit him, the larger of the two attackers. Dax then finally made contact with him but was quickly countered and kneed in the ribcage by the other one. Dax landed on the ground but had to scurry to get up and keep moving. Dax had to think of something or he was going to lose this fight, he then shot a ki blast at the larger one which made him fly back and gave Dax enough time to finally have a fair fight and get a couple blows off on the other one, before the larger one recovered and attempted to hit him. Dax dodged it but the muscular one toke the opening to hit him so hard it sent him flying into the air, before Dax hit the ground the larger one attempted to break his back on his knee. Dax fell back to the ground in so much pain that he was forced to return to his base form. He tried to get up but couldn't it looked like he was done for but I couldn't tell if his back was broke or if he was in too much pain. He then tried to power up to lose some of the pain. I then realized that he could achieve his ascended form and even go further than the ascended form so I yelled out to him "DAX LISTEN TO ME, LET IT ALL OUT DON'T HOLD BACK. LET OUT ALL THE RAGE FROM THE PAIN THEY HAVE CAUSED YOU, DON'T HOLD BACK ON THESE CREATURES". Just then he got up really slowly clearly struggling and charged, he went straight to ascended form and he just kept increasing his power, until finally he went past the ascended form, you could tell he had done it due to how his muscles bulged so much that his movements were slowed but his power output had dramatically increased. The larger one noticed this and charged at him but before he could make contact, Dax hit him so hard in the face that he flew out of the arena creating a dent in the roof. The Saiyan noticed and you could tell he was interested. Just then the muscular one figured that he could not get hit so got behind Dax and Dax tried to dodge but couldn't. Now you could tell it didn't do much damage but if he can't dodge any attack then he would lose the fight. I could tell Dax thought of the same thing because he went back to Super Saiyan, which made him a lot faster but at the cost of his damage. I could tell he knew this and that he had made a plan. The last one charged at him and Dax dodged his attack before the muscular one had the chance to move out of the way, Dax went past ascended again and hit him straight in the stomach. He was winded so Dax took the advantage and just kept hitting him over and over again, until he landed the final blow which sent him flying into the stands and breaking them. I then looked to Dax and he had turned to his base form just lying there recovering from what had just happened.
Immediately after the fight the Saiyan called out "We have a winner for this round." Dax raised his hand and flipped him off. "Could the next contestants please come to the middle which will be the Frieza clan and can someone get this contestant out of here." I flew out and threw Dax's arm over my shoulder and as we went back we went past Ice so that Dax could give him some advice "Don't hold back or you will die". "I won't, thanks". I got Dax back to the bench and we watched Ice in his fight.
