Chapter 66: The Reason to Fight
Vegeta… Goku… Mirai… Gohan, Goten, Trunks, Earth… forgive me. There isn't anything I can do anymore.
Frieza, I guess you were right. I'm only a monkey.
Mom, dad, I'm sorry I couldn't avenge you.
Roxx, you win. You killed me, and I won't be able to come back this time.
But if I'm dead, why aren't I at the check-in station?
Cell, what is he doing here?
"You have to fight. You can't let him win."
"Its too late. If you're here I must be dead."
"That's the thing about angels. They don't die. Not this easily, anyway." I turned and Mirai was there.
"Its too late, I felt my body die."
"Your body? Katie, you have all eleven elements in you arsenal."
"Eleven? What's the last one?"
"Life, the most powerful element. Without life, there are no other elements." Cell said.
"Why are you two here anyway?"
"We're not here. We're just telling you the reason you're here." Cell said.
"I know my reason."
"No, you don't." Mirai said.
"Then why am I here?" I screamed.
"To fight for all of us who can't. You are stronger than anyone, and you always were and will be."
"I'm not strong enough. This is Goku's thing, not mine."
"Why do you think you were brought to this dimension so early? You were needed to defeat the three tyrants." Mirai said.
"So what? It would have been okay."
"No, it would have been a disaster. Think about your influence sometime, you'll see. And since you helped destroy them, you gained power and knowledge. Without you, all of the dimensions would be gone already."
"Why me? Why was I chosen?"
"Your inner power. Even without your Inner Light you were strong. Your sprit can't be broken, not ever." Suddenly everyone, people I knew and didn't know, appeared in front of me.
"We are all counting on you, even me." Frieza said.
"I have to beat Roxx. But how?" I called out to everyone.
"You know how."
My eyes fluttered open as I got up, moving slowly, and saw Roxx as he stopped laughing.
"You should see the look on your face." I sneered.
"What! You were dead!"
"You can't kill an Angel!" I screamed as I threw him over the side of the castle. I jumped after him, using my wings fully spread out to fly.
"How did you do that? You were dead! I felt the warm energy of life leave your cold body!"
"I told you, even if you kill me I'll haunt you."
"You won't defeat me! I won't allow it!"
"All the bad guys say that." I powered up an attack, one I didn't even know I could do, but I was about to use it anyway.
"A Sayjin grows stronger after every near fatal injury, so it makes since that dying and coming back would increase my strength, too. And it did. You are a gnat to me, and you always were. I will destroy you." I powered up at my fullest power, a power that could have crushed Buu with a thought. It was so much I could see it all around myself in a white aura.
"How dare you! I am Roxx, the Destroyer of Dimensions! The Prince of Pain! The Crusher of Souls!"
"Well so far you've got the pain part right. Pain in the ass!" I launched my attack, "Destiny Blast!" I launched the attack, using all my strength and all my power to attack.
"You won't stop me!" Roxx held the blast away as I continued to push myself harder.
"I have to stop you, and this will be the final shot!" I pushed, causing the blast to grow twice its size. Roxx couldn't hold it any longer.
"No! This is impossible! No!" I could see Roxx deteriorating right before my eyes, but at this rate I'd run out of power before he was dead.
I'm not strong enough! I can't beat him.
"Katie! Fight him! We're all counting on you!"
"Cell? Am I hallucinating again?"
"No, you're not. Remember that thing about the dead hearing your thoughts? Its true, if they're willing to listen, as I am. You can do it, you have to!"
"Hey, let me talk!"
"Frieza?"
"Yes, it's me, monkey girl. I didn't think you could actually do it, but now I see you are the one. You have better stop him, for all of us."
"But how can I? I'm at full power and I still can't break him."
"For Gohan to defeat me, it took all of his strength and emotion. I believe that's what you need to do now. Use all of your emotions and you can do it!" Cell called.
"Yes! I can do this! Roxx, with this attack, I give you all my hate, all my love, and all of my power!"
The blast tripled its size and Roxx's body was finally being torn apart. I was straining to keep up my power long enough to beat him, and finally when I was drained and my energy left me, I looked over to Roxx. But he wasn't there, and his Ki was completely gone. Roxx was dead.
"Oh, praise God!" I was drained, but I had more work to do. I went inside to see my friends alive and less inanimate than they were before.
"Katie, is that you?" Mirai asked as they all stepped closer.
"I don't believe it! You look exactly like an angel." Goku said.
"Duh! That's why its called Angel Sayjin."
"So, I take it you beat Roxx?" Vegeta asked.
"With a little help in low places, yes, I did. I'll explain later, but right now my SG is telling me we gotta go."
"Your SG?" Goku asked.
"Yeah, it doesn't hurt or anything in this form."
As on cue, the castle started to break apart.
"Oh come on! Give us a break!" Vegeta called in a rage.
"We have to stop the castle from falling, or it'll make a crater the size of West City!" Mirai said.
"Lets go." I said, leading everyone out of the castle. We set up at the four corners of the castle, getting ready to blast it into pieces.
"On the count of three, one… two… three!" I had to communicate telepathically because of our distance, but I could clearly hear the attacks.
"Burning Attack!"
"Kamehame-Ha!"
"Big Bang Attack!"
"One last shot tonight, Gatlik Wave!" we all struck the castle and it blew apart, into dust. There was nothing left to show how close our planet, or this dimension even, had come close to destruction.
"We did it!" Mirai cried.
"No, Katie did it." Vegeta said, coming over next to me.
"I had to. If I didn't, then all those lives lost would have been in vain."
"You saved the… well, you saved everything, and you avenged your world. I'm proud of you, Katie."
"Thanks Goku."
"We're all proud of you, and I expect so are the rest of the old gang." Mirai said. I reached over and we hugged.
"I couldn't have done it without you."
Silently we flew to the Lookout, where everyone had gathered, but my energy was fading on me.
I need to get these new powers under control before I hurt someone.
"Katie? Is that you?" Gohan said, first and nearest where we landed. Chi-chi ran over to Goku, and Bulma ran over to Vegeta and Mirai. Piccolo came over and placed his hand on my shoulder.
"Yes, this is my Angel Sayjin form."
"Alright everyone, lets here it for Katie!" Pan called.
"It wasn't just me. Without any of you guys I would have died. I saw all of you. Not just you, but everyone on earth, and everyone in this dimension and all the remaining dimensions. It gave me the strength I needed."
"Guess you're not that little kid anymore, are you?" Yamcha said.
"No, I'm a warrior with great friends and even greater enemies. But I know with all of your help I could do anything. Even Frieza and Cell have seen that."
My body was tired, but I was fine. Everyone was congratulating the others and me.
"Katie, are you sure you're okay?" Chi-chi asked.
"I'm just tired…" I started to float then, falling out of my new form and into a deep sleep.
