Part IV.

Onward.


Yusuke pushed off the ground with a hand, and landed next to Ann after being thrown back by Beerus. Skidding back on the ground a bit, he narrowed his eyes, feeling something different about the Deity before standing upright again.

"... what's going on?" He muttered.

"Tarok… go attack him again." Ann suggested.

"And accomplish what?" Yusuke asked, looking back at her.

"... he might be using something new this time. And if I'm right… then this might actually be it for us now, if we aren't lucky."

The male Saiyan eyed her for a long moment before looking back at Beerus. It… looked as if he hadn't had his guard up at the moment, and currently had his shoulders slightly slouched forward. Besides that, he looked completely normal to Yusuke.

"Trying to get me be the scapegoat, huh?" Yusuke said with a slight deadpan tone.

"That's not it… but it'd be funny getting your ass kicked, not going to lie." Ann said with a grin, looking towards him with her long hair swaying about.

An electrical current coursed around both of them before Yusuke narrowed his eyes, and stepped forward. Ann's tail moved in anticipation when she saw the male readying himself. He leaped, causing goosebumps through her as Yusuke charged in, and immediately zoned in on Beerus as she watched.

As the male Saiyan punched, Beerus evaded again by the slightest margin. Then another, and then another to no luck of actually hitting the deity.

"Beerus… is he…-?!" Ann muttered at first but gasped as she saw the male Saiyan's hand being gripped suddenly by passive looking Beerus. But that description was a far cry of what he did next, as he punched Yusuke straight in his stomach. She wasn't sure if he had hit him so hard that she saw Yusuke's abdomen stretch out, but a moment later he came flying in her direction, zipping past her as the male Saiyan crashed into the group of mountains behind her. Wide-eyed, she whipped back to see dust and broken rocks in the air. "Tarok!"

Feeling the wind from behind her and having a sense of dread, Ann whipped back around to see a flash of Beerus before she felt an impact on her cheek before she was sent flying into the destroyed mountains behind her.

The line of mountains in the area all collapsed as the ground shook. It lasted for a minutes that seemed endless, as the entire structure of giant stones were now broken apart, resting on the ground into a sea of rubble. Dust particles littered the air, and everything stayed silent in a long, tense moment.

Beerus, appearing in the middle of the sky, blankly looked down at the destroyed mountains. Sensing where both Saiyan's laid, he waited with his arms to the side, staring down. A moment passed where nothing happened, and during that he closed his eyes briefly while inhaling a bit before exhaling more air than he let in. After doing so, he casually weaved his hands and placed them behind his head. At the same time, he laid sideways with one leg over the other while keeping his attention towards the destruction below, waiting for both Patrollers to appear visible once again.


"Ultra instinct …?" Erza asked curiously.

"... It's a really advanced technique that only a few certain people have obtained, let alone master it." Marissa explained with a worried look at the projection, that was currently showing the destroyed landscape. "I don't think Lord Beerus has complete control over it, but he has had experience of it. Whis… however…"

"Ohoho! A good explanation Marissa, but that isn't everything. Ultra Instinct allows one's body to act on their own to avoid any danger coming towards them, no matter how small or large it may be, hence its name. Master it, and you will never physically get hurt. Of course, as Marissa says, not very many people have mastery over it, let alone experience it. Lord Beerus for example, while being a God of Destruction, hasn't perfected it. He's able to use it, but only for a very short time." Whis explained while keeping his eyes towards the projection. There was a look of recognition that came from him a moment later. "Only one mortal was able to master it in a very short time, even if it was circumstantial at the time."

"Who was it…?" Lucy asked in interest after she, as well as a majority of the other members listened to the Angel's explanation.

"I'm sure you've all heard of him with praise from these Time Patrollers. It was Son Goku who was able to master it, even if it was only for about a minute." Whis answered happily.

'That name again. Yusuke has said he was a very important historical figure where they're from. I suppose I hadn't realized just how important that person really was.' Erza thought for a few moments before narrowing her eyes and looked back at the projection where dust still lingered from the broken mountains. She tightened her fists as it shook slightly, being surprised at first from the sudden blow dealt to both Saiyans before feeling a sense of frustration. 'Yusuke…'

Not far away, Mirajane could only watch with worry, waiting for something to happen as her eyes were stuck to the projection. Her hands fondled the locket around her neck anxiously, and she let out a shaky breath. Being so drawn in towards the battle, she was caught off guard when a hand was placed on her shoulder, and look to see her younger sister with a concerned look on her face.

"Lisanna…" Mirajane called out, relaxing considerably.

"You alright, Big Sis?" Lisanna asked with a gentle smile.

"I… can't help but be nervous. I just wish we could do something."

"... really? That's brave of you…" Lisanna said, making her older sister look at her as the youngest sibling's smile faded a bit. "When Yusuke was fighting back on Edolas… it was, scary. I couldn't move… until everything settled down. After seeing what that person could do, and if Yusuke or Ann wasn't there to stop him, who knows what might have happened to us."

There was a moment where Mirajane saw Lisanna trembling a bit before the latter looked back at her with a smile.

"But he's strong, right?"

"... ...he is." There was a sense of relief coming over Mirajane, and she slightly smiled after having a small talk with her little sister. 'He is strong… I should believe in them more.'

After a long moment of tense silence, sounds of rubble moving was heard within the projection, and as everyone saw Yusuke emerging from the pile of large rocks by lifting a relatively large stone several times bigger than him, and threw it to the side.

Bloodied, battered, and clothes torn, the male Saiyan was seen panting heavily with an eye closed, his now black hair draping over his forehead and slightly further down. He took a few steps before stumbling forward and catching himself with a broken rock to support him.

"He's not looking too good…" Gray called out.

"... I hope Ann is okay." Levy said in worry.

As if on cue, just a few meters away from Yusuke was a small explosion of rocks flying away as a bright light was seen before dimming down not a moment later. A tired, panting Ann was revealed from underneath the rubble as she made the effort to climb out, only to collapse onto the surface while heavily breathing in and out. Her hair, now back to normal and draping her face while bits of blood stained the stone under her from the torn clothes she currently wore.

"Ann…" Lucy sadly muttered, frowning and clenching her hands at the same time. 'They can do this… they can…'

"Marissa, you mentioned Ann having her new form, what was it again?" Levy questioned.

"It's called Super Saiyan 3... Only a handful of Saiyans were able to reach that form through a lot of intense training. Much stronger than the previous forms, but in return it stresses the body too much and drains energy and stamina a lot faster." The Earthling explained.

"It's a lot different from what Yusuke had, it's not the same, is it?" Natsu asked.

"No, it isn't. But, it's not the first I've seen it happened from another Saiyan." Marissa answered, her thoughts going back to the son of Vegeta for a brief moment. "Since Saiyan's have been known to draw power from anger, it really must have pushed him over the edge after seeing Erza and Mirajane in trouble."

Erza, recalling back to being held by the throat by Beerus, unconsciously rubbed the spot before remembering the moment fully when she looked at the Deities' focused eyes. "... it wasn't too uncomfortable when he did it."

Mirajane, after hearing the Earthling and redhead spoke out as well. "I must have been scared at that moment when I thought he really would suffocate us, but it didn't seem like he was going for that at all."

While most was focused on the projection of both Saiyan's trying to recuperate themselves, only a few select listened onto conversation. As some did listen but also put their attention back to the battle, Gildarts took a moment to consider what had been said. After looking at the younger mages and the Earthling separately, the Crash mage then looked towards the Angel. Whis currently had his eyes closed with a smile, and if Gildarts hadn't known any better it was as if it was a knowing smile.

'Is it possible…' Gildarts started in his mind, and then looked towards the projection as well to see both Saiyan's struggling to stand. 'Both of you… good luck.'


Holding his abdomen, Yusuke continued to heavily pant, but covered his mouth a moment later from coughing. Blood spilled out from the gaps of his fingers before he used his forearm to wipe his mouth, and spat it out.

'Almost thought I'd throw up, this might be worse though…' The male thought as his breathing steadied out, and looked up to the sky, irritated to see the God of Destruction laying on his side in the air. "Bastard…"

He looked to the side to see Ann now getting up on her legs, her hair and tail down as she looked up towards the sky, panting heavily. Her clothes and body soaked in her blood, she tore away the remaining of her jacket so that she was left in her black tank top and denim pants.

"That fucking hurt…!" Ann sneered. Seething, she began roaring as wind was picked up and a visible force was seen around her. A moment later, her normal golden locks were seen once more with the ground cracked underneath her feet. With clenched teeth, she glared over at Yusuke. "Tarok, what are you waiting for…?!"

Without having to answer, Yusuke shakily stood up straight with gritted teeth. While giving a hard look at the God of Destruction, he began roaring towards the sky as well with power beginning to rage around him. As quickly as he began shouting, the normal golden aura came to life around him once more.

Both Saiyan's have had time to catch their breath to the point of panting slightly. Not affording to waste anymore time, they roared once more as the ground around them cracked more, their golden aura laced with electricity.

But they continued, their voices echoing across the area around them as the ground shook more violently. The debris began flying up into the air while being broken apart along the way. Larger rocks from the once, standing tall mountains near them were blown and torn away by their power until the brown earthy ground itself was seen around them.

Beerus had long stopped lounging around and observed both of the Saiyans below. 'To think they still have this much left in them. I suppose being dirty just now has only motivated them more.'

Yusuke and Ann screamed… and screamed… and screamed as their auras became more dense and grew around them.

As the female Saiyan's glow became more rounder around her, her hair began growing longer and longer by each passing moment.

A pillar of bright light shined where the male Saiyan stood, his screams continued on into a raging fit.

With a final shout from both Saiyan's and one final quake, a burst of light flashed from where they both were standing. As the area dimmed, Yusuke and Ann was seen in their new forms once more. Violent static electricity traveled around Ann and her long golden mane, and a dense golden and inner blue glow emitted off Yusuke.

Beerus floated down to where both Time Patrollers stood, but still stayed afloat in the air. With his hands behind his back, he grinned. "Seems like you're both still up for getting another beatdown."

"That was unfair Beerus, using Ultra Instinct, even if it was just for a moment." Ann shouted, briefly surprising Yusuke.

"Unfair? Hmph. This entire planet is on the line, and it's up to the both of you to try and save it. If not, then I destroy it! This is a fight of life, and death!" With that being said, Beerus immediately dashed straight down towards the female Saiyan.

"Tch…!" Ann launched herself upward towards Beerus, where both of them clashed fists.

The ground broke apart despite both of them being high up in the air, and Beerus immediately lunged forward to grab hold of Ann's neck. She choked as a mixture of blood and saliva was forced out of her mouth, and the Deity pushed her down in the air before throwing her away.

Beerus glanced back to see Yusuke finishing a front flip with a bladed hand ready, and he slammed his arm downwards toward the God. The Deity rapidly flipped backwards and caught the Ki blade with a hand, surprising the male Saiyan. Beerus pulled him in, catching Yusuke off-guard and kneed him right in the face while maneuvering his attack to throw him down to where the female Saiyan was at.

Flipping a few times backwards while gritting his teeth to endure the pain, Yusuke stopped in the air at the same height that Ann was at, who had just finished recovering while rubbing her throat.

A sudden orange glow could be seen above, and as both Patrollers looked up they saw Beerus with his hands slightly apart from each other in front of him. As the orange light came from between his hands, he expanded his arms outwards as a very large, giant, bright orange energy sphere was formed above him…

… and he threw it.


"L-Look!"

As Jet was the first to point out, many members took their attention away from the projection, there were gasps of fright and surprise. Looking past Magnolia was the same large energy sphere that was seen from Whis' staff.

It was a large, very large. Even from the far distance apart between the guild and the current battle, they could all tell the size of the attack.

"Is… is that going to hit the ground?!" Droy exclaimed.

"If it does…" Marissa's sentence fell short, as she began trembling. Feeling large winds being emitted from the God of Destruction's giant orb, her shaking only grew.


As Beerus' sphere was thrown down, Yusuke and Ann had little time to react as they both quickly flew upwards towards it. The Deity's attack descended at high speeds, and as it did, it slowed down as both Saiyans began pushing it back.

Their hands burned, but they endured. With gritted teeth, both Patrollers released more power to try and push back the very large sphere.

"Damn it…! Come on!" Yusuke shouted.

"...Nng!" Ann grunted, and looked at the male Saiyan's focused look. She knew he was trying to do everything he possibly can in his power to stop the attack, and so was she.

Almost.

'... It's a gamble we have to take…' The female Saiyan thought with narrowed eyes. A moment later, she looked towards Yusuke. "Tarok…"

There was a new sense of feeling within Ann that she couldn't explain in her head currently. But, it wasn't entirely new from what she felt and thought. It...was probably a sense of reliability, or trust for the male Saiyan. If she really had to recall, it might have been during the time TokiToki City was in havoc during Demigra's rise. Or even before that, while as little as that feeling was, it might have been when they were first partnered up during the mission Trunks assigned them on. And all she did was try to act as independent as possible, trying to rely on herself.

However now is the present, where both of them were facing off against the God of Destruction. Time has changed.

Yusuke glanced at her, and widened his eyes in surprise at what he saw.

A smile. Never in his life, would he ever see Ann smile at him, and it briefly made him lose focus.

"... Give him hell." Was all that Ann said.

She kicked Yusuke away from the large sphere of energy that could rival the sun. As powerful as Beerus' attack was, strong winds blew the male Saiyan away, and he watched on in disbelief as Ann continued holding back the orb of destruction on her own.

"Ann! Why?!" Yusuke hollered, and gasped as he saw her body being consumed within the sphere. "ANN!"


Ann's body racked with intensity within the dense sphere, and being able to keep up a thin film of energy around her as a barrier, she acted quickly as she screamed as loud as her lungs were able to.

'I'm trusting you… '

As the gold aura that surrounded her became more dense, it quickly expanded outward as she released all of her energy at once. Strong enough that an implosion occurred within Beerus' attack, that would shortly explode afterwards.


A large force blew back Yusuke as he tried to fly forward. But as he tried again he crossed his arms in front of him as he saw a large explosion occurred from Beerus' sphere, the male Saiyan grunted loudly as he was blown back hard and was only able to stop himself far away where the winds were weaker. Staring in disbelief, he could only let out a cry to the female Saiyan.

"ANN…!"

Yusuke's shouts fell on deaf ears, his whole body feeling the winds brushing against him. His eyes wide in surprise, as he looked high in the sky as it was littered with large plumes of brown and black smoke that, no doubt, everyone within the land could see after feeling the very large tremor of the explosion.

The ground, more destroyed than before that will definitely leave a permanent mark on Fiore. A bottomless hole of darkness was seen with crumbling rocks constantly falling down. Nearby forests and downed trees set ablazed, all of the damage seen possible spread across the land that covers a majority of the country, right down the middle.

His thoughts in array, Yusuke frantically looked within the dark unnatural clouds in search of the female Saiyan. He closed his eyes briefly with clenched teeth and fists, trying to find her.

'Damn it… come on…!' The male Saiyan did his best trying to find Ann's energy signature. However, no matter how far his senses went, he couldn't pinpoint where she was at. As sweat dripped down his face, he opened his eyes once more to try and look for her.

Out of his peripherals, he saw a spot of the smoke bloom, and Yusuke quickly snapped his head towards it to see a body falling down. Without wasting another second thinking, he went on auto-pilot as he flew at full speed with his aura glowing around him. Zoning in to the falling body, it was without a doubt the female Saiyan, and Yusuke shot a ball of energy far under her, exploding to create a softer impact for her as her body floated for just a moment before beginning to fall into the crater again. But just as Ann started to descend, the male Saiyan quickly caught her body in his arms, holding her back and behind her knees.

Flying through the thick smoke, he quickly made it out and arrived on the other side of the large crater. Landing on the ground, Yusuke gently laid Ann down to inspect her.

Large, dark burn marks were present all over her body. From the right side of her face, to her shoulders, left side of the waist and all the way down her leg and foot. Clothes more torn than before, but gratefully covered certain parts, continued being soaked in her blood apart from the already dried blood that had set in.

"Ann…-!" Yusuke gasped, taking a closer look at the female Saiyan's face as she shallowly breathed at an unsteady rhythm. A small cough came from her, and she spilled out bits of blood as she did so. "MARISSA…!"

As his shout to the sky echoed, the Earthling the male Saiyan called for appeared almost immediately, arriving while collapsing to the ground on her hands and knees near Ann. Marissa let out a shaky breath as she saw the condition of her friend, and placed a trembling hand on her arm.

"Yu-" Marissa began, however-

"Get her back to Wendy, right now. Whatever help she can do will help Ann. Stop her from bleeding out, get her breathing under control, whatever it takes. Understand?" Yusuke quickly said to Marissa, but didn't get a response as he looked up at her face, her eyes on the verge of tears. "Marissa…!"

"R-Right, right! I-I got it…!" Still trembling, she placed two fingers on her forehead and shut her eyes as her tears flew. It took her a moment to sense the other Fairy Tail members, and when she was able to locate them, both her and Ann disappeared from the battlefield.


Marissa arrived in front of several Fairy Tail members, arriving just as soon as she left just a few moments ago. With Ann severely damaged next to her, the wizards surrounded both Patrollers in worry.

"Wendy!" Marissa called out.

Not needing to response back, the Sky Dragon Slayer kneeled down next to the female Saiyan. She held out her arms as a green glow came from her hands, and began using her magic on Ann. Wendy trembled, being able to understand the current state Ann was in.

"How is she…?" Lucy asked after a moment.

"... It's not good… this is worse when we first saw Marissa." Wendy said, while trying to concentrate. Sweat began forming around her brows as she helped the female Saiyan with each passing moment. "I… I'm not sure if it's doing anything…"

"You are." Marissa said, and gave a hard but reassuring look towards Wendy. "Keep it up. You've healed others with your magic, Ann will be no different."

Wendy looked back at the Earthling wide-eyed. A soft smile came upon the healer and she looked back down at the female Saiyan. With a small nod, she continued using her magic for her.

"... it all happened so fast, what happened exactly?" Gray questioned, looking back at the projection to see an angered Yusuke looking up at Beerus.

"... Ann stopped Beerus' attack from directly hitting the ground, using the rest of the energy she had left. If she hadn't… I don't think we would be here right now." The Earthling answered darkly, resulting in a few murmurs and exclaimed remarks from the mages. She looked down briefly at Ann with a pained look, her mind flashed back to Yusuke badly damaged on the ground back on Edolas. But she shook her head briefly and looked toward Whis' staff once more.


"One down, one to go." Beerus called out from above, and showed a visible grin.

"Beerus…!" Yusuke snarled, veins popping out of his forehead and blood coming out of the palms of his hands from how hard he was clenching them. "AAAAGGGHHHH!"

In a bright explosion around him, Yusuke launched upward towards the Deity. Beerus sped downwards towards the Saiyan, and they both met halfway. Their hands intertwined with each other, and with gritted teeth Yusuke pulled Beerus towards him with a large tug.

"RAGH!" The Saiyan shouted, and brought a swift blow to Beerus' midsection with his knee.

"Tch…!" Gritting his teeth, Beerus pulled Yusuke forward this time and headbutted him, causing him to let go with a grunt. The God shouted, and delivered a punch towards his face, and followed up with another with his opposite arm. But not letting up there, Beerus continued a combo of attacks towards Yusuke.

A kick to his side, a jab to the abdomen, an upper elbow blow to the chin.

A roundhouse kick to his arm to send him away, but chasing right away with an ankle grab and pulling him in before striking with the elbow once more to the stomach.

Saliva was spat out from Yusuke as he crashed down to the ground once more with a loud and large tremor.

Beerus dusted himself off, and glanced down to his abdomen to see if any damage had been done.

None.

The earth broke apart as Yusuke shot up to the air once more. Extending his arms above him, a large energy sphere began to form until it was instantly broken apart. Yusuke suddenly felt himself being pushed back and saw that Beerus had grabbed his throat. Gritting his teeth, the Saiyan forced himself upright in the air while the Deity was the opposite. But before the Patroller was even halfway doing so, Beerus kicked him away and fired off a large energy wave at him.

"Grr…!" Yusuke crossed his arms in front of him as the attack hit. He held up, staggering back a bit in the air before flying through the smoke and quickly dashed towards the Deity with a kick above him.

He was faster, Beerus noticed, and blocked the kick while leaping back. Yusuke chased after him with a punch ready, and once more both the Saiyan and the God of Destruction went back and forth in the air with a flurry of attacks towards each other.

...BOOM!

They separated from one another after clashing fists. Yusuke stopped as he was above Beerus, and looked down a thim with a clenched jaw. Beerus focused on Yusuke, and narrowed his eyes by a margin as he saw the Saiyan crossed his arms.

"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Yusuke's roar echoed, and a burst of golden light surged around him as he spread apart his arms. Gold Ki flashed inside the palm of his hands before he joined them to the right side of his body.

'Oh…?' With some interest shown, Beerus paid more attention to the Saiyan's next move. 'With how much power he's putting out…'

'... this is all I have left. If I can't get him up close, then I have to do this…!' Yusuke said in his mind, and he narrowed his eyes down towards the God of Destruction, challenging him.

With a grin, Beerus balled his hands and looked straight at the Saiyan. "... come on!"

FINAL…!

Another very large, sudden burst of energy emitted off of Yusuke as a loud whirring sound was heard. The gold energy within his hands began radiating even brighter, and dense, azure sparks of electricity crackled around it.

KAME…!

A pillar of light appeared where he floated within in the sky, the lightning produced from the male Saiyan's raw energy spread out more in the air around him.

HAME…!

A subtle, yet noticeable ring of light seemed to come out from Yusuke's aura and energy, but not a moment later it shrunk and sank back to him… along with the pillar of energy that had suddenly been emitted, all condensed to one point where he was concentrating his energy towards.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Yusuke's roar resonated, almost as if an Oozaru had overtaken him. His body almost seemed to lurch, but he threw his arms towards Beerus…

… and the largest attack the male Saiyan mustered up was launched from his hands. In almost an instant, the golden energy wave that had cobalt sparks coursing around it had already reached the God of Destruction, destroyed more of Fiore underneath him and enlarging the crater, and any clouds that had lingered around were blown back immediately. The sky brightened from the streams of energy and darkened at the same time, the country shook, and Beerus quickly held his right arm in front of him.

Yusuke's blast seemed to hit and engulf the Deity, that is, until the attack was split into a V-shape where Beerus' spot was.

There the God was, resisting the Patroller's Final Kamehameha Wave with a single hand, outstretched from his right arm in front of him.


A large beam of energy was shown being fired off, until it suddenly split in two. It was fast, and it zipped past Magnolia in just mere moments as the ground shook violently and into outer space of Earthland . People lost their balance and fell to the ground once again today from the unstable tremors and as they did, their eyes only caught the large energy waves that filled the darkened blue sky.

Two scenes were shown within Whis' projection. One was Yusuke roaring as he continued to output his attack. The other was Beerus being shown with a concentrated look on his face, his mouth slightly open with gritted teeth as he had a single arm in front of him deflecting the Saiyan' blast.

Yusuke roared again, his energy wave increasing in magnitude, and everyone felt it instantly from the shockwaves. As the beams brightened and grew larger, the Saiyan continued shouting, putting everything he had left into his attack. When he did, the perspective from Beerus' side showed him being pushed back a bit. There was a split moment of, maybe a surprised look from his face that very few caught before he concentrated again, and pushed back more of the Patroller's attack. This time, the split widened, and did not let up the tremors that raged the country.

Wendy yelped and fell to the side from the quaking, interrupting her healing process, and the same happened with Marissa as she collapsed on the ground.

"Guh…!" Ann let out a small cry in pain, her eyes still shut and gritted teeth.

"Damn it…!" Marissa cursed, and saw a pool of blood beginning to form under her. Startled, she quickly got up and looked for the Ice-Maker mage. "GRAY!"

Hearing his name, Gray looked towards the Earthling who called him, and saw her waving her arm towards her. Trying to steady himself off the ground, he quickly made his way towards Wendy and both Patrollers. When he arrived, he noticed the pool of blood under the female Saiyan right away, and crouched down next to Marissa while still trying to ignore the current shockwaves.

"What happened?!" Gray asked out loud.

"There's too much blood coming out of her, I need you to use your ice where her wounds are so she stops bleeding out, can you do that?" Marissa quickly said.

"Yeah… yeah, I can. Show me where." He answered with a nod.

"Help me turn to her side. Wendy, can you keep up with your healing?" The Earthling asked, and received a nod from the Dragonslayer as she put out her arms once more with her magic shown, trying to withstand the ground shaking.

Marissa and Gray placed their hands under Ann, immediately feeling the wet cold blood. They both gently lifted her to the side, causing the female Saiyan to moan in pain.

"Sorry Ann…" Marissa apologized. There were large scrapes against Ann's skin on her back from what could be seen, and was the source of the blood loss from the Saiyan. Around the wound were the burn marks that were present prior, and is most likely the main problem for the current problem at hand. "There."

"Got it…" Gray quickly formed a fist with his right hand before placing it on top of his left palm, doing his traditional way of using magic. It was only a moment before both of his hands were coated in mist, and he carefully touched Ann's wounds where the blood came out from.

"...Ah!" Ann yelped, her body jolting from the cold contact.

"Is she awake…?" Marissa asked, looking at Wendy for an answer.

"No, she's still unconscious…" Wendy replied, shaking her head.

As Marissa, Gray, and Wendy continued helping Ann, the shaking around them became much less noticeable. It was sudden, and caused them to look up towards the sky. Yusuke's attack was still present. Very large, and still very bright while split into the V-shape. Looking towards the projection, the two sides of the God of Destruction and Saiyan was still shown. Yusuke, with veins popping out of his arms and forehead continued pouring out more of his energy with gritted teeth. Then, there was Beerus who continued holding back the Patroller's blast, still having only a single arm stretched out in front of him.

"Did you learn all of this in the Time Patrol…?" Gray asked Marissa, after observing what progress between the Deity and Saiyan fighting.

"Not really… I had a lot of time on my hands before joining them." The Earthling answered softly. "Usually we have either Senzu Beans or other Patrollers that are more on the healing side of their abilities rather than fighting to fix us up. But we don't have them here, and the healing machines are gone now too. Now, we just need to improvise."

Marissa exhaled sharply, and use the sleeve of her shirt to wipe off any sweat from her face, mainly away from her eyes and forehead. When she looked back to the progress of Gray sealing Ann's wounds with his magic, out of the side of her eyes she caught blue hair, and looked to see Juvia behind Gray. She wasn't too close, but close enough to see how badly injured Ann was, and how hard those present was trying to help. Noticing Marissa's gaze, Juvia jumped a bit, but relaxed a second later.

"Is… is there anything Juvia can do to help?" The rain woman asked.

"I think we got it handled…" Gray said, still concentrating on his magic.

"Hold on, you can control water right?" Marissa asked with a curious gaze.

"Yes, Juvia can." She answered.

"... would you be able to control the blood so they stop flowing out? It'll give Gray and easier time to help Ann out."

"Juvia… Juvia has never tried working with blood before…" The water mage answered, downcasted.

"First time for everything, right?" Gray said, looking at the blue haired woman. "Try it."

Juvia locked eyes with Gray, and felt her face heating up. With a nod, she hurried to crouch in between him and Marissa, with the Earthling giving her room while she still held up Ann and being careful while trying not to step on the Saiyan's tail.

"Okay, Juvia will try." Juvia said, and with a deep breath she softly touched Ann's arm, slightly squeamish about the blood on her hand but ignored it as she closed her eyes to concentrate.

Marissa observed, from the slow streams of blood that leaked out of the female Saiyan were still there… until she noticed it becoming slower, and slower… until there were only drops of blood that came out of Ann's wounds now.

As Wendy continued keeping Ann stable, there was a noticeable ease she felt, and looked at her face to see the Saiyan in less pain than before.

"So far, so good." Wendy softly said, and smiled towards the Earthling.

"It's the least we can do… you guys helped us out so much before." Gray said, still carefully applying his ice, and eyed Juvia with a very concentrated look on her face.

"Thanks guys…" Marissa nodded with a small smile, and looked towards the sky with a worried look. 'Please Yusuke…'


He poured, and poured, and poured out more and more of his Ki into his attack. Yusuke roared again, his energy wave enlarging once more to break past Beerus.

The God of Destruction noticed himself shifting backwards in the air just slightly, and he readjusted himself immediately with a snarl, following up with a soft exhale.

'Not bad at all…' There was a moment when Beerus slowly closed his eyes.

That moment passed, and with his right arm that was extended out in front of him, he closed his hand.

In just an instant, from the spot Beerus floated in the air, to all the way outside of Earthland's atmosphere, Yusuke's Final Kamehameha Wave broke apart into many particles of light.

He stared in disbelief, his mouth agape as his arms shook in front of him. Yusuke saw the narrowed eyes from the Deity until he fizzled out from his sight. The Saiyan was about to react to block while crossing his arms, and he did. Unfortunately, while Yusuke held his arms in front of his chest, Beerus had dashed in with a jab towards his abdomen instead. His hair faded back to black, his vision shook, and Yusuke was forced to spit out saliva and blood while his eyes rolled back.

Unconscious, the male Saiyan began to fall in the air until Beerus caught him by his almost-torn tank top. The Deity looked backed to where everyone was, mainly sensing where his attendant. Upon realizing just how far he was, he let out an annoyed sigh.

"Whis!" Beerus shouted to nowhere particular, knowing he was being watched by the group of wizards.

Almost a moment passed before the Angel showed up right next to Beerus' side with his staff in hand.

"You called, my Lord?" Whis said with a smile.

"Take us back, it's time this ended." Beerus said.

"Of course." The attendant replied, and with the Deity holding on, a white and rainbow light enveloped them as they moved.

In an instant as Whis left the group of mages, he appeared once again in the air, but away from them. With Beerus appearing behind him with Yusuke in his grasp, he threw the Saiyan down to the ground, and he softly crashed as dust blew away from him.

"Yusuke!" Several of the mages cried out, more prominently Erza and Mirajane as they began running towards him.

Whis and Beerus landed at the same time Yusuke was crowded around with several Fairy Tail members. The Saiyan was lifted up by the S-class women, seen with gritted teeth and slightly opened eyes that were shaking, indicating he was now conscious.

"Yusuke…" Mirajane softly called out, caressing Yusuke's face, albeit dirty.

"... sorry guys…" Yusuke quietly apologized, tiredly panting as he fell forward, now supporting himself with his hands.

"You did the best you could…" Erza said, reaching out to Yusuke's hand and firmly grasped it. Not a moment later she reached out with her other hand to grasp and let out a sharp exhale, her hair covered her face but the Saiyan could feel her shaking.

"Now then, I don't care how tired or how hurt you are, we're leaving immediately after I destroy this planet, back to the Seventh Universe." Beerus announced, marching towards the group of mages that had crowded around Yusuke.

As Beerus walked, there were several glares directed towards him from the Fairy Tail members, but one thing that stood out was a lone man walking in front of the mages.

Makarov.

"Master…?!" Several of the members cried out, and Yusuke gasped as he looked ahead to see the master of Fairy Tail in front.

"Master…" Erza called out in surprise.

"Don't…!" Yusuke shouted with a strain.

"Who are you?" Beerus asked, stopping in front of the Dreyar.

"I am the one that watches over these children. My children. And I've had enough seeing how much harm it has come to those two. Every single one of them are precious to me, and we are all a family. It matters not if they are or they are not from this world, I love them all the same!" Makarov strongly and passionately stated. An angered look overtook his face as veins appeared on his forehead, and a dense yellow glow appeared around his small figure as he began to grow in size. He was at the same size as the other members for a split second before he continued to grow… and grow… and grow until he reached a size that was essentially the same as the Fairy Tail guildhall.

"Another one…" Beerus sighed.

Makarov's shout boomed as he lifted up an arm with a fist ready to attack, and he swung it down towards the Deity to hit him. The ground shook a bit as Makarov seemed to land a hit with a bit of dust picked up around them.

There was some anticipation as the people nearby waited for the dust to clear up to see what had happened. A minute passed, and the figure of the God of Destruction was seen within the dust as it soon cleared up a moment later. There, Beerus was seen blocking Makarov's punch with only a single finger from his left hand. Seeing this, the Dreyar stared in disbelief, and looked directly into Beerus' eyes as the Deity casually moved his arm away. A moment passed and the God disappeared from Makarov's eyes.

"In front of you!" Yusuke managed to shout out.

Hearing the Saiyan's words, Makarov quickly looked ahead of him. But it was only for a moment that he did as he saw a flash of the Deity himself before the large, old wizard was kicked away from his current spot on the ground. Makarov flew past the group of mages, and landed in between the group where Yusuke was at and where Ann was at. The ground shook once more from his impact, and he grunted loudly as he did before he began reverting back to his original, small size. From both sides, the wizards ran towards their master out of concern, soon crowding around him as well. Fortunately when arriving, Makarov was seen wincing from the pain, but nonetheless conscious.

"Then be destroyed with your family." Beerus lowly said.

"Master!" Erza shouted in worry, and was about to run towards him, but looked back at Yusuke.

"Go..." With an understanding look, Yusuke gestured his head for the redhead to check on their Master. With a nod, Erza rushed over to Makarov, leaving Mirajane with him along with several other mages.

Yusuke shut his eyes, balling his hands as he began standing up again, catching the surrounding people's attention, Beerus included as he touched the ground again.

"Yusuke…?" Mirajane curiously called out.

"I… I can still fight…!" The Saiyan shakily said. He clenched his teeth, as he raised his arms while his body trembled. "AAAAAHHHHH!"

Yusuke roared, and hair began defying gravity once more as it swayed upward in the air. Gold flickered back and forth from his black hair, and the yellow aura that paired up with the golden haired form began to appear around him.

"HAGH!" Yusuke shouted once more, a bright light exploding around him.

… only to reveal himself still in his normal, base form. His body, tired and battered, struggled to stand. The Saiyan spread apart his legs, shakily forming a martial arts stance to try and stand his ground. There was a brief staredown between him and Beerus until ultimately, Yusuke began to fall forward to the ground again.

Mirajane quickly went over to him, and caught him in her arms. He supported himself with just his hands and toes, his left knee almost touching the ground, and continued to tiredly pant for breath.

"That's enough Yusuke… please…" Mirajane pleaded, tightening her embrace around the Saiyan.

His heart tugged at hearing the crack in her voice, so Yusuke relaxed into her hold, and nudged his head with hers.

The male Time Patroller glanced back at the God of Destruction, and gave a defiant look at him. Beerus responded with closing his eyes before exhaling a few moments later. Knowing the answer from him, he brought out his left arm forward while his right arm was behind his back, and a magenta colored, orb of Ki formed in front of his hand. It brightened the area enough for everyone to take notice.

"This has been fun, but I can always say to the Supreme Kai of Time that we failed to find the missing Time Patrollers. Instead we simply ended up in the middle of space somewhere, where there was only a whole field of rock debris." Beerus announced, and his sphere of energy grew larger and brighter.

A sense of defeat came upon everyone else, mages and patrollers altogether. While everyone present knew of the upcoming demise, everyone else residing on Earthland haven't the faintest idea whatsoever besides the very obvious shockwaves that were the result of the Deity and Saiyan's bout.

Confusion was set upon the normal citizens of Magnolia, just wondering what was going on. They had assumed it was the usual everyday ruckus Fairy Tail does, but today was different as the guildhall had been completely destroyed, the body of water behind mentioned building had all been sunk deep into the ground from the destruction that ensued. Constant bright explosions were seen, not only from those in the city, but even from neighboring cities that housed Blue Pegasus and Lamia Scale could see them.

It was especially noticeable that a battle had occurred in the middle of Fiore, where a large fiery sphere had appeared out of nowhere in midair. And just as soon it appeared and descended to the ground, it exploded a moment later. An explosion large enough to create a giant crater that was very deep. How deep was the question, and only a few handful would know if one was brave enough to venture down.

With the results of the confusing, and panicked events, even the Magic Council had decided to act in the midst of it as a traveling army of Rune Knights were making their way towards the source at a steadfast pace.

Then the large energy wave launched from Yusuke that every single person in Fiore witnessed, if not felt, and no doubt what the rest of Earthland experienced from its magnitude in power as well. A last resort and the most powerful move that Yusuke had up his sleeve, resulted in him simply being overpowered by the God of Destruction.

And now there the male Saiyan was, being embraced by one of the people who he deeply cared for ever since coming to Earthland. It was a bitter moment, another loss he had to experience and worst of it all, he had dragged the entire planet with him as a damn bargaining chip from the Deity's forced proposition.

Because he thought he would have pulled through.

'Sorry everyone… Marissa, Satsumi…' Yusuke tiredly thought, and trembly wrapped an arm around Mirajane. Nuzzling against her, his mind flashed to one other person who he had loved as well. 'Chronoa…'

Mirajane moved her hands towards Yusuke's cheeks, and lifted him up so that they were meeting eye-to-eye. He saw her gentle, warm smile, and it only eased his nerves further that he still saw the care in her eyes for him.

"Yusuke… I-"

*BOOM!*

Mirajane yelped, and went to hug Yusuke without thinking from a sudden burst nearby. It surprised the Saiyan as well as he looked towards Beerus, and gasped as he didn't see the large sphere of energy in front of him anymore. With surprise and confusion, the rest of the Fairy Tail members observed the God as well until they heard one loud…

*GRUMBLE!*

… rumbling from a stomach… more specifically from Beerus himself. He slowly closed his eyes and lowered his left arm to place behind his back, and cleared his throat.

"Oh my, you seem to be famished Lord Beerus." Whis said, walking up next to him.

"It appears so…" Beerus replied, and looked away from the mages and Saiyan. "If only I were to happily chow down on some food… slip into a food coma, I might feel so, so much better afterwards. Well, this is an entirely new planet in an entirely new universe we found out. I do wonder what sort of delicacies can be eaten here."

As Beerus looked away, he spotted some trees that were still intact despite the destructive battle that had ensued prior. Seeing shade under it seemed to resonate within him, and he began walking towards it with the Angel behind him. As he moved, Beerus looked back at Yusuke with a knowing expression.

"I do hope you have something good for me soon." Was all Beerus said, as soon as he arrived under the trees, he lazily laid down under it, putting his hands behind his head.

Still confused, every single person in the Fairy Tail guild looked at the God and Angel in a disbelieved look.

"What… what just happened?" Lisanna asked in bewilderment.

Feeling an enormous amount of relief, Yusuke fell down on the ground. Mirajane looked back at him, still puzzled.

"Yusuke… what's going on…?" She asked.

"... he spared us." He answered after a moment, surprising the nearby wizards.

"He did…?" Mirajane questioned with hope in her voice.

Yusuke looked back at the Beerus, seeing him a leg over the other as he laid down, while Whis was simply standing next to him with his staff in hand.

"If I didn't know him any better… yeah…" Yusuke answered, panting slightly. He narrowed his eyes, and balled his hands as they shook.

It took a moment for the nearby mages to process what he had said. And after that moment, they began cheering and hugging each other in joy. Not soon after, the members where Marissa and Ann were at began doing the same as well. Some let out tears of joy, and went on their knees or fell to the ground from the immense relief set upon them.

Mirajane leaped towards Yusuke, hugging him.

"Ow…! Ow!" Yusuke winced, and took a sharp deep breath in from her suddenly embracing him as he was pushed to the ground.

"Sorry…" She said, and lifted off from her hands as she looked down at him. The white-haired woman leaned down, and kissed him while touching his cheeks. The kiss was long, and needed from both of them until they separated about a minute later. Mirajane panted a bit, and licked her lips from the taste of iron.

"... you don't mind the blood in my mouth do you?" The Saiyan jokingly said with a small grin.

"It's worth it…" Mirajane replied with a smile, and helped Yusuke off the ground so that he was sitting up again.

Yusuke looked back towards the small group surrounding Makarov, and then to where Marissa and Ann was next.

"Come on, let's go check up on the others." Yusuke said before blinking and looked at Mirajane curiously. "You were going to say something before, what was it?"

"Eh?" Mirajane knew what he was asking, right before she thought Beerus was really going to end it all. She began blushing, and shook her head at him. "Mm, I'm just glad you're alright."

A bit confused, he nodded his head in her response, and Mirajane allowed him to stand up while helping him. Yusuke took a step forward before almost collapsing to the ground again before he and his girlfriend stopped himself from doing so.

"Thanks…" Yusuke grunted, and wrapped his abdomen with an arm.

"Come on. Let's go over to Master first." Mirajane said, and supporting him with an arm over her shoulder, they both made their way towards Makarov.

"You're not hurt are you?" The Saiyan asked the barmaid.

"No, I'm fine. I wish the same could be said for you." She said with a chuckle.

"Yeah, well, I'm used to it…"

"... that's not an answer I like to hear." Mirajane said, the both of them stopping as he looked at her frowning.

"Don't really know any other way to answer."

"Maybe 'It won't happen again?'"

"... can't guarantee that." Yusuke answered, and took another step forward but felt Mirajane resisting, and looked back to see her with a defiant, but worried look. "... I can only promise to try."

"I suppose that's the best answer I'll get…" Mirajane said with a relenting sigh, and they both continued their walk towards the Fairy Tail Master.

When they arrived, Makarov was seen supporting himself with a hand on the ground behind him, simply staring where Beerus was at. Erza got up from her knee when they both arrived, and immediately went over to hug the Saiyan. This time Yusuke was ready, being able to stand his ground when the redhead embraced him, and he wrapped his free arm around her in response.

"How are holding up Old Man?" Yusuke asked, and Erza pulled away but still stood by his side.

"I'm fine, I suppose… Yusuke, can we really trust him to not do anything else?" Makarov cautiously asked looking back at the Deity.

"Just… don't provoke him and give him something to eat that he'll enjoy. You'll get on his good side that way." Yusuke advised, and looked at Makarov more closely. "You sure you're alright? it looked like he kicked you pretty hard into the ground."

"Hmph, as if something like that can get this old geezer down. I'm just that tough, or I wouldn't be the Master of this ridiculous guild." Makarov boasted with a grin, making the people near him smile.

"... what does someone like him eat?" Kinana asked, who was one of the people who rushed to Makarov's side.

Yusuke looked back at Beerus for a moment, trying to think of what he hasn't eaten before that he'll enjoy or at least giving him something he's eaten before to enjoy, and looked back at the purple-haired women. "Don't know, you're gonna have to try and ask Marissa about that. Maybe, a pizza or something. Speaking of Marissa... I gotta go check up on them."

The Saiyan continued past the Makarov, seeing that he was alright. With the help of Erza included now, the three of them made their way back to where the Earthling and Female Saiyan was.

The closer they got, the louder they could hear the rest of the members celebrating. While he was happy they were doing so, Yusuke was more concerned for Ann, hoping she was awake. When the three arrived, they looked to see Marissa still on her knees looking over the female Saiyan, along with Wendy, Carla and a newly arrived Porlyusica, who was in the process of carefully bandaging Ann. The dragonslayer was panting slightly, her magic was being used this entire time almost nonstop to try and help Ann was much as possible. It did help, but only so little from what Yusuke observed, and he felt bad for her that Wendy was doing the best she could. Unfortunately, when Yusuke looked at Ann, she was still unconscious while having bits of ice covering parts of her body that had a red hue to them.

"How's she holding up?" Yusuke gently asked, and Marissa looked back at him and stood up.

"She'll make it… just barely though…" Marissa sadly said, a hurtful expression on her face when she looked back at the female Saiyan.

"Porlyusica, when did you arrive?" Erza questioned.

"Just now." The healer answered in a stern voice, and narrowed her eyes. "With all the ruckus I've felt I had a feeling you people might be doing something dangerous again. And I was right."

Porlyusica looked all around her of the mentioned destruction, and then back to helping Ann. "Your friend here really was on the verge of death. If it weren't for your other friend's help she might not be alive right now. I gave you a warning the last time I was here, I don't wish to be the one to tell you the worst."

"... thank you, Porlyusica." Erza said after a moment.

"Don't thank me. Thank her." Porlyusica answered, looking up at Marissa before glancing at Wendy. "And her. As well as those two mages that can use water and ice. They were the ones keeping your friend here alive."

"Gray and Juvia…?" Yusuke mumble to himself.

"And you." Porlyusica suddenly said, giving a dangerous glare to Yusuke that almost made him stumble back. "You're almost just as worse off. After I'm done here I'll take a look at you."

"Uh, thanks…" Was all the Saiyan said in response. But coming back to his senses, he directed his attention towards the Earthling. "Marissa."

"Yeah?" Marissa responded, looking back at him as her ponytail swished behind her.

"Go back to the apartment. Get the Dragonballs." Yusuke said, surprising her.

"W-What? A-Are you sure?" She stuttered, and blinked in confusion.

"Look at what we did…! I'm not just going to leave the way things are..."

"But once we're done with them…"

"I only have two in mind… we can use the last one to track them."

"... alright. I hope you know you're doing…" Marissa said, and with that she jogged a bit away from everyone else before flying towards the direction of their apartment.

"What are you planning to do?" Mirajane asked in curiosity.

"Fixing my mistakes…" Yusuke answered solemnly. He began staring off while looking at Ann, thinking back to what had transpired between them just before that large blast, and tightened a fist in frustration. 'Why did you do that…'

It wasn't long when Yusuke had asked Marissa to do the task, and the Earthling came back just a couple of minutes later with her Instant Transmission, appearing near the Saiyans.

"Will it even work?" Marissa asked, walking up to Yusuke and handing him her backpack.

The Saiyan allowed himself to stand on his own and took the Earthling's bag. He opened the pack to still see the seven orange orbs still intact, and sighed in relief. "We'll just have find out right now.

Yusuke turned around, to see the members coming back to the rest of the majority who stayed put. Then, he looked over to Beerus, who was still casually laying on the grass and under the tree. "I got a way for him to talk."

Slowly treading forward, Yusuke was a little bit away from everyone else, and he slowly crouched on one knee. With Marissa's backpack still open, he reached in and grabbed a Dragonball, one by one. It didn't take long for all seven magical orbs to be present on the ground, and he stood back up to look at them.

All seven flashed orange all at once repeatedly, indicating they were ready to be used. The constant glows caught some attention, including those a bit far away.

"Well would you look at that…" Beerus commented, now getting up to get a clearer view, and indeed confirm that they are Dragonballs he was seeing.

"I did hear them mention one of the recent Time Patrollers missing carried them. It seems we have found that answer as well." Whis said, observing.

Yusuke backed up to where Marissa, Mirajane, and Erza was at, and while still in pain, he wrapped an arm around his stomach again.

"Ready to see a dragon?" Yusuke asked, not to the Earthling as she already knew well about the wish-making creature.

"From… there…?" Erza asked confusingly, looking at the seven glowing orbs.

"Yup, that's all we need." Marissa answered.

"Will it really grant a wish?" Mirajane questioned.

"... here? hopefully." Yusuke skeptically said, and took a deep breath of air, readying himself.

"ARISE, SHENRON!"


Hey guys! Here's the next chapter another 3 months. Now, before I get lynched, this is just one part of this chapter. I do actually have the next part about 90% finished. I was thinking of finishing that up and putting it all in this one so it'll be one entire chapter that's like, 20,000 words but I figured I'd break it up and give you guys an update. Having that said, Do expect the next chapter in just a couple of days! I promise, if not in a few more days. If I go past 4 days then you can hurt me.

Beerus Vs Yusuke and Ann has concluded! Didn't go the way both of them wanted, or did it?

Ann vs Beerus. Uh... let's be real, there's so little both Ann and Yusuke could do against Beerus. While we don't know the full capabilities of Beerus, Ann and Yusuke can't do much, even in their Super Saiyan 3 and Super Saiyan Rage form, respectively. I'm sure Toriyama will keep his true strength hidden for a long while, even though it's already surpassed by Jiren and Goku (Ultra Instinct, mind you.) But don't you think Ann getting rid of Beerus' energy sphere was still rather impressive? I sure think so.

Yusuke finally showed off his Final Kamehameha Wave. I tried to make it flashy as possible, so for those who was able to visualize what I typed out, I hope you enjoyed. Powerful was what I was going for, but did it seemed so for Beerus? Hmmmm

There might be some slight confusion on Marissa's part aiding Ann since she really did almost die after pulling that Vegeta stunt, but she had to do something, despite her at times where she might not seem like she's able to think of ways she did this chapter in saving Ann. She's smarter than you might think, couldn't go with Natsu's help with the already burn marks she had from the explosion so Gray was the next best option followed up with Juvia. Now with Juvia, I'm aware of her (SPOILERS)blood-make magic during the last arc in the series(SPOILERS). I tried to make it so that she struggled with it instead of easily doing it right off the bat. Granted, it's not exactly the same thing she did in the anime, but with things considered I thought it'd be a nice touch for her magic to be put in use like this. I mean, think of what you might since this is coming from the note of an author, but it's best I clear it if there was any confusion in her quick thinking.

But what do you guys think? Did Beerus really just spare them? I couldn't possibly be copying this just like in the anime. Almost.

I'm going to hold off on reviews until the next chapter since I'm close on completing it. But for now, enjoy this for a few days and look out for the next one very soon. I still get emails for people following and favoriting my story, so thank so much to the recent readers! I really appreciate it, and if I could, I'd buy stuff most people like and just sell them for a dollar. Stuff like PS4's, Xbox One's, 70-inch HD TVs, you name it. Recently discovered MrBeast on youtube and I binged most of his videos as I was typing all this out, so I wasn't completely idle from it, don't worry.

Until then~
