Drafted
After only being there a few simple seconds, already, this mysterious stranger has aroused quite a disturbance between the 3 Sayians. Trunks, Pan, and the Judge all stayed on their guard. The man known as Taron laughed.
Taron replied "Please, there's really no need for that. I am not your enemy".
The Judge growled "I'll be the judge of that".
Trunks nodded "I'd have to agree, you just appeared out of thin air and now you just expect us to just shake hands and smile?".
Taron shrugged "Your hesitation is expected but there is much to discuss, and I must apologize if I seem rushed to you. I am here on a mission of great importance from my employer, and it's imperative that we get started immediately".
"You're employer?" Trunks asked.
Pan blinked, confused as she also asked "You mean you're boss?".
Taron nodded "Yes, in a manner of speaking".
The Judge frowned "And just who pray tell would that be?".
Taron eagerly replied "I am the executive assistant and public relations Liaison to M.I.L.L.E.N.N.I.U.M".
The three Sayians just stared at Taron with blank faces.
The stranger explained "Millennium: master interdimensional liaisons of law enforcement, negating and neutralization of infinite universal malice. Or as we are commonly referred to as, the powers that be".
Trunks eyes widened "Whoa, whoa, WHOA, hold up a second. Are you saying?".
Taron smiled warmly "Yes, we are the ones who monitor, assist, and observe over each and every single different dimension, reality, and alternate universe. This is universe D294-B, you and Pan hail from universe D291-A. Millennium serves as a guardian angel to each individual world, assisting and preparing each world's designated champions".
"Designated champions? What are those?" Pan asked.
The stranger answered "Excellent question my dear. You see each universe has its own balance, an even proportion of light and dark, black and white, good and evil. And with each amount of evil that exists in a world, there must be equal amounts of good to counter balance it. That is where the champion comes in. Every world has a chosen one, a warrior selected to be its primary guardian.
Also known as the "prime warrior" of that world. He or she will defend his or her world from all evil, evil doers, and evil events that wish to cause harm to innocents or the world they live in. For example, in universe Y698-Z, a little boy who plays cards is the designated champion for that universe. I believe his name is Yoga or Yugi, or something like that, anyways.
Goku is the designated champion for your universe. Millennium keeps a constant 24/7 watch over all the champions from each different reality, and it is my job to prepare them".
The Judge raised a curious brow "Prepare them? Prepare them for what?".
"The apocalypse, my friend" Taron said.
The teen Sayians gasped, not liking the sound of that one little bit. Taron sighed a bit at their reactions.
The mystical messenger frowned "My spirit is unable to lie, I can only tell the truth. That is if anyone of you is under the impression that I am lying. I can assure you, I'm quite serious".
Trunks blinked "Hold up a minute, what does all of this have to do with us?".
Taron explained "Something terrible has happened on your world since you've departed. Something very, very terrible. Your world's very existence faces the threat of total annihilation, and I must return you to there at once. If we don't move quickly, another world shall be lost".
The Sayian girl gasped "Another world?".
"You mean this has happened before?" The Judge asked.
Taron sighed "Even with all our power, knowledge, and abilities, we can only do so much. Every world faces a doomsday scenario sooner or later, some more frequently then others. I am sent to help all designated champions prepare to face that particular apocalyptic event, and guide them to victory. But sometimes it all depends on the champion, some succeed, some don't.
The disaster varies depending on circumstances that exist in each individual world. Some events only cause risk to that particular world, some events can be so catastrophic, they could erase all of reality as we know it. Those are our "red alert" specials. I am their messenger and their agent; I have felt the joys of love and friendship upon thousands of many different worlds.
And I also have felt the stinging pain of suffering, loss, and death. I do not wish for your world's fate to become the latter. Trunks, Pan, please come with me, your destiny awaits as do the lives of an entire universe".
The blue haired man stepped back and revealed another gigantic, glittering rip in the space time continuum. It was a dimensional portal designed to take Trunks and Pan back to their own reality. The two Sayian teens looked at each other with surprise, gulping a bit and feeling just a tad bit nervous.
Pan looked to her beloved friend "Trunks?"
"Yes Pan?" Trunks responded.
The young girl gulped "I'm a little scared, what are we going to do?".
Trunks smiled "Its okay Pan. I promised you I'd protect you and that's a promise I intend to keep, no matter what".
The young girl smiled brightly and tenderly hugged her young friend with joy. Trunks blushed and hugged Pan back; they then nodded towards Taron and headed towards the portal. But Pan's curious young mind couldn't help but wonder what fate was to befall their friend in the black robes.
Pan looked to Taron as she asked "But what about Goku?".
Taron blinked "The Judge? Oh don't worry; I have something in mind for him as well. I assure you that he's going to be just fine. Now, it's time to be off with you, you've got a world of work ahead".
Nodding to each other, Trunks and Pan entered the portal and waved goodbye to their 2 friends. The teens smiled and cheerfully shouted.
Trunks waved "Good Bye Taron".
Pan added "Good bye grandpa Goku".
Taron returned the call "Good bye, far well, and good luck (sighs as the portal closes behind them) you're going to need it".
With the 2 young travelers already taking their first steps onto their greatest journey ever, there was still work to be done. The silver suited man smiled as he looked towards the Judge. Goku was kneeling with his black hammer in his hands, seemingly tuning out the rest of the world. The blue haired man smirked casually towards the dark warrior as he stood behind him.
The Judge growled "What more could you possibly have to say magic man? I'm not interested in some biblical quest; I've got nothing left to save".
Taron grinned "All the more reason why this job is going to be perfect for you".
The Judge curiously raised an eyebrow at that remark, "Job?" he asked.
Taron replied "For sometime now, Millennium has been interested in increasing their ranks in the open field department. There are a lot of other worlds out there facing total destruction, and we believe that perhaps they need more then just a guide to help them out".
The fallen Sayian immediately asked "What are you saying?".
Taron smirked "We need an agent, someone with the knowledge, the power, and most importantly, the skill to stop threats before they happen. An agent who could freely walk through countless worlds and enact his own unique brand of justice. An agent who, under our proper supervision and assistance, could do great deeds, deeds that could save millions upon millions of lives.
Just think about it my friend, with your power and our resources; you could finally do some real good. You can actually save people with your gifts.
Millennium wants you, Goku, Kakkarott, the Judge, to become the leading warrior in the never ending battle to vanquish all evil from each and every single reality, dimension, and universe in existence. So what do you say?".
The dark hood of the Sayian warrior was slowly pulled back, revealing Goku's black spiky hair. The stern, scarred face of the angry man who lost everything and everyone he ever cared about, stared firmly at Taron.
Meanwhile, in universe Y698-Z……
"NO, what have you done to them?" a spiky, golden haired boy said. A sea of dark, electric energy roared above the head of the spiky haired young teenager. He was wearing a dark blue suit, holding a disc of sorts, and sporting a golden pyramid with a single eye in it around his neck. Surrounding the boy were 4 statues, humans seemingly frozen in solid rock. A look of absolute terror and fear was painted over those 4 poor lost souls.
On the edge of the room where the spiky haired boy was standing, a second child stood. This boy was smaller, younger, and had light, blue green colored hair. His suit was white, and had purple, curled like lines shaping around his collar. The young boy laughed "How's it feel Yugi, how's it feel to be locked alone in a virtual funhouse? I've known that feeling for months, years even. But all that is about to change just as soon as I defeat you.
Once I win this duel, I'll finally have the power to escape from this virtual world and return to the real world. Thanks to my mind's direct connection to Seto Kaiba's super computers, everything you see is under my control. And now that I've frozen your pitiful little friends in solid stone, they won't be bothering us anymore". The spiky haired boy known as Yugi growled, clutching his duel cards in anger. This strange little boy was quite the devil.
Yugi shouted "This duel is far from over Noah, I will not sit back as you steal Kaiba's body for your own selfish desires. You're going to pay for what you did to my friends and when this is over, I promise that you will know the true meaning of justice". Noah laughed and casually shrugged off his foe's threatening words. A large boat hovered in front of Noah's form; poised to attack and finish Yugi off. "Game over Yugi Moto" Noah laughed.
BOOM!
A thundering crash suddenly tore the cybernetic skies apart in a flash of electronic fire. Explosions shattered the fictional boundaries that separated this false world from the real world. Noah screamed "AH what's happening? My world, my cyber world, it's being torn apart". The large boat suddenly exploded in a flash of melting computer pixels. Yugi gasped as his friends turned back to normal, a young girl gasped "Yugi, uh what happened?".
The shape of a gigantic, blue and green colored mechanical orb descended from the sky. Noah gasped as he saw the gigantic orb hovering above him. The orb was smashed, a gigantic crack laid down upon its left side, raw circuitry sparked wild explosions. "My brain, what has happened to my brain? How could someone have attacked my brain when it was still safe in the real world?" Noah screamed. A dark fog started to enter the cyber world.
Yugi blinked "Hey, what's that, there deep in the fog, it looks like a……person". Noah growled and turned to see the figure approaching him, his footsteps getting closer. GONG! A loud bell clanged loudly, its dark, haunting rings echoing through out the crumbling virtual world. "Who the hell are you, and what the hell have you done to me?" Noah shrieked. The shadow figure ceased clanging the bell; a large hammer came into view.
The shadow laughed "Who am I? Why it's very simple you see. I am the guardian for all that is good, I am the demon that haunts your dreams, I am the slayer of infinite darkness, I am the fury of god himself, I am the Judge. And beware Noah Kaiba, beware for whom the bell tolls". The young boy shrieked as the Judge materialized right in front of him, he shoved Noah down. The Judge raised his hammer "For the bell, IT TOLLS FOR YOU".
CRUNCH!
THE END (and just the beginning)
