Kai here with the second to last chapter—well, this is technically the finale, but I have an epilogue planned out for you… Not much to say here except that I got my first bokken and I'm really happy about it. It was my first time at a Renaissance Faire and I found a bokken as well as a cool skirt…

I wanted to post this yesterday, then decided to make you all sweat a bit, then said: Darn it! I want to post this and get it over with! Be happy I'm so darn nice... Moony, would Dodo let you get on the internet, or were you pointedly avoiding this story so I'd finish it before you got back?

This will be in third person omniscient for most of the chapter and will switch back to first person toward the end. All I can say is, enjoy the chapter!

Mystic Saiyan-Ch24-Trinity Blood Fusion! Vekisis Appears.

Piccolo watched as Goku reverted back to his normal form and flinched. Trunks paled and Gohan gasped. It was apparent to all three of them that Goku was about to fall. They didn't notice the light that Goku had seen before he blacked out.

These are the Mystics that walk this plane,
The physical fusion that causes the flame,
The binding of minds shall gather the strength,
To summon the force given to those of this name…

Alexis sensed it. All three of them were in complete synchrony in energy and breathing. He continued his deep breathing, keeping in sync with the two people next to him. He knew that Goku was having his own troubles deep in his consciousness, but couldn't contemplate. He had his own things to worry about…

The Mystics of shadow that swallow the light,
The ones of darkness that rule over the night,
Shall combine their strength—be one in the same,
And complete their revenge to finish the fight…

Vegeta sensed the other two energy signatures that were completely alike to his own in power. He then realized the weight that this fusion carried. He knew that he had to keep his emotions clear, easy for him. He sensed another energy rising dramatically, but couldn't lift his head to look. He was in his own trance; unable to move. The power that had risen so greatly before now dwindled to nothing. He pushed this information to the back of his mind and concentrated on keeping everything—his heartbeat, stance, and breathing—even…

Trinity Blood Fusion!

Sakidra unclenched her fists and held her arms out from her sides slightly. Her position in the middle meant that she had to start. As soon as the other two gently took her hands, she slowly lifted her own head, knowing that the others were following her movements perfectly.

The wind swirled around them at a rising pace. The wind in the mountainous area rose to a crescendo as it lifted the dust on the ground around them. Sakidra snapped her eyes open and grasped the hands tightly, noticing as the others mirrored her own movements.

No one noticed the light around them until Goku had passed them. Trunks saw the dust pick up before Goku blacked out. Gohan was first to notice the light as Piccolo made sure Goku was all right after the attack. All three of them looked to each other and ahead to the light, sharing the same thoughts:

'Just in time…'

Sakidra felt the familiar consciousness enter her mind as the fusion completed itself. Alexis and her have shared minds on more than one occasion, but—who was this? Another, lesser known presence shared the confines of her mind. She almost started, ready to force the consciousness from her mind when she found the power emanating from this presence had increased and she recognized the signature. She calmed down, realizing that this was Vegeta. She has let him into her mind before, but hadn't recognized his signature at the even pace it kept.

Alexis was confused at first. He knew Sakidra's presence when he sensed it, but who was this newcomer? Sakidra wasn't pushing the presence from her mind, so he assumed that it was safe to share their minds.

Vegeta was more confused than anyone in this situation. He may have fused like this once before, but was still unable to keep his former consciousness. It was nothing like the Fusion Dance that was expected to be known by them. It was three minds sharing a single space. This mind overall wasn't his, either. It was…Sakidra's. The name came naturally, out of the air. He let his guard down slightly, knowing that he was safe while in Sakidra's mind—

Focus Vegeta! We don't have time to waste here! Keep your power raised or we will split and our only chance at victory will be gone!

Sakidra sensed an uneven power level and realized a moment later that Vegeta's presence was becoming lost in the confines of this new situation. Alexis, whose presence was already successfully combined with hers, agreed.

Vegeta realized that it wasn't Sakidra's voice that had spoken to him, but a mix of Alexis's and Sakidra's. He realized what was happening a moment later: The Fusion! He had to focus on the combination or he would be forced from Sakidra's mind!

As the light faded and the smoke cleared, Trunks, Piccolo, and Gohan watched as the three beings that had previously stood there had now fused into one.

Kane covered his eyes and turned away, not wanting to get the dust in them. He knew that the bothersome siblings had fused, but the power emitting from them was more powerful than before. He squinted at the silhouette as the light dimmed to a natural level.

In the center of the light stood a singular figure. This figure stood at a reasonable height; probably 5'2" if you were to approximately measure. As the light dimmed completely, it was seen that this person had their silver hair in an upright flame do, a black stripe running up the middle and tipping the last inch of the hair.

The eyes were black with a blue and purple tinge that changed depending on the light that they were seen from. The facial features were undeniably male. That was accented by the flat chest and the wide shoulders.

The figure was wearing a skintight, blue and violet suit with a small cape that barely reached the waist. Tied onto his back were two swords; one black and one a light lavender. Around his neck was a white scarf with black patterns covering it. The scarf was tied around his neck, the ends draping down to the back of his knees. The boots that covered the foot and the leg up to the knee were black with white soles and a white tip.

"Who are you?" Kane asked arrogantly, preparing to defeat this newcomer as well.

"Is that…? Whoa. That energy level is huge!" Trunks muttered.

"That's their fusion all right." Piccolo agreed.

"I wish Goku was awake to see this! This is amazing!" Trunks said.

"I hope they'll be all right." Gohan muttered, watching the impending fight.

"Who are we? I wonder…" The figure said, resting his chin on one finger, pondering the situation.

"Are you that stu—"

"I got it! We are…Vekisis!" The figure said dramatically. He rested himself into a stance, readying himself for the fight ahead.

"That was so Alexis. He's always the show off." Trunks said, trying to lighten the situation a bit.

"Vekisis, hm? Stupid name. Get ready to die!" Kane said, entering his own stance.

Vekisis drew the swords that were positioned behind him. The right hand held the black blade while the left hand held the lavender blade.

"Let's go!" Vekisis said as he rushed forward, slashing the swords in a bladed inferno, ready to block off any of Kane's attempts for an attack.

Kane dodged whatever he could of the blades. He jumped up and flipped over the fighter. So this is the fabled Trinity Blood Fusion…I'm not impressed.

"This is the Fusion that you three struggled to do? The Fusion that you sacrificed that sorry excuse for a warrior for? I'm not at all impressed. You'd be better off separating before fighting me. You might actually have a chance that way…" Kane said.

"Who are you calling a sorry excuse for a warrior? Goku is an extremely powerful person!" Trunks yelled.

"Stop it, Trunks. Don't let him get to you." Vekisis said. Turning back to Kane, he twirled the swords before throwing them both in the air. He then rushed forward, attacking Kane in a stream of kicks and jabs. Vekisis was hit a few times himself, but soon got Kane right where he wanted him.

Blocking a punch aimed for his jaw, Vekisis rammed his shoulder into Kane's chest and threw him over his shoulder. Vekisis let go of the arm and jumped into the air, flipping in flight. At the peak of his jump, he caught the swords, holding both of them together like a two-handed sword. He flipped in their fall, bringing the combined blade with him and forming an energy on the blades.

Kane had managed to stand, only to look up and see Vekisis flipping toward him. He jumped back, thinking he had dodged when he looked again and saw Vekisis directly above him, bringing the swords down toward his chest. It was too late to move as Vekisis landed, both the blades held in their respective hands behind him.

"Crescent Shadowtwilight." He said, watching as Kane was knocked back by the energy emitted by the blades. Vekisis twirled the blades a bit more before sheathing them and running toward Kane's body in mid-flight.

Kane flipped in mid-air, now facing down. He did a somersault in the air, managing to land on his feet and turn just as Vekisis was coming in for another attack. Kane managed to duck, bringing his foot under him to attempt a sweep kick. Vekisis jumped, turning it into a flip that landed on Kane's shoulders. Kane was knocked to the ground by this, getting up quickly and keeping up with Vekisis's movements as well as he could.

After blocking a kick to the side and a jab to the stomach, Kane made a reach for the head, attempting to catch another memory. Vekisis kicked at the ground as Kane's hand reached his head, overbalancing himself and managing to fall before Kane could get a good hold.

Vekisis moved his hands underneath himself as he hit the ground, propelling himself into Kane, more specifically, his stomach as he fell. Kane dragged on the ground at the force of Vekisis's kick. Vekisis jumped off of Kane and flipped some ways away, landing and twisting, sliding through the dust as he tried to stop.

"Damn you." Kane cursed as he stood, preparing to rush at his opponent again. Vekisis dropped into a stance that oddly resembled the stance for the Hassaru style.

The Hassaru style used pressure points to disorient the opponent and stop his limbs using the least amount of contact. Mystics seemed to perfect this style due to their ability to sense the pressure points on any body. Hassaru students had to be swift in their style or they wouldn't be able to strike with enough force to disrupt the limb's control.

Vekisis kicked off his feet and rushed at Kane with a speed not previously known. Using the two fingers that were most likely to do any damage to pressure points, he struck, trying to knock Kane back again. Elbow, knee, thigh, stomach, central chest, forehead, neck. All of these places were targets for the Hassaru that Vekisis used, but none of these hit targets were having any effect on Kane.

After Kane realized that Vekisis's attacks were doing nothing to him, he used both hands to reach for his head. Vekisis knew his mistake as soon as he made it, unable to block or even counter Kane's second attempt of getting into his head. There was nothing left to do but clear his mind of any emotion as—

No!

Kane placed both of his hands on Vekisis's head, trying to find a useable memory. Within moments, he pulled back from his head, stumbling backward and holding his own head. He rubbed his temples, trying to clear his own throbbing headache.

As soon as Vekisis regained control over his body, he realized that there was no emotion clouding his vision. He looked to Kane to see him holding his head.

What…? He was overloaded by the combined memories of three people in a single mind! We are immune to his attacks as long as he can't get into our head!

No. Unfortunately, that isn't the truth. There is still his last resort. We need to finish this, now.

I agree. Let's go!

Vekisis backed off and lifted into the air, charging his energy and transforming in the process. The silvery hair brightened and converted into a platinum blonde color. The hair lengthened, straightening and resting just above his shoulders.

The cape was blown back, but revealed something growing out of his back. The swords were dropped, the straps holding them broken. The wings were huge, covering the wingspan of a small plane. The wings had red feathers that had a silverish tinge to them. The energy level of Vekisis increased more than tenfold.

"What's going on? What is that?" Gohan asked.

"It looks like a Super Saiyan, but it couldn't be! The hair's straight! And there's wings!" Trunks exclaimed, confused as well.

"It's a…combination…" They heard a rough voice say from under them. They looked down, joyous at the sight before them.

"Goku!" They yelled, helping him to a sitting position.

"What's going on? You seem to know. Have you seen this before?" Piccolo asked.

"N-no. Alexis told…me that one of the Mystic transformations was a phoenix hybrid. However, the hair is supposed to remain silver. The hair is the major tip-off that it's a combination transformation. It's blonde, just like Super Saiyan." Goku explained before laying back down.

Vekisis didn't waste any time gathering the energy needed. Soon enough, there was a reasonably sized ball of energy in Vekisis's hands. Kane, who had stood after the transformation had stopped, started gathering energy of his own, knowing that this would decide life or death in this fight.

"Final…" Said Vekisis, whose voice seemed more like Vegeta's at the moment.

Kane had gathered enough energy within his hands and made sure to keep the energy coming.

"Chaos…" Said the voice that was closest to Sakidra's.

"Shadowtwilight…" Said the voice of Alexis. Vekisis raised both hands in the air, still holding the ball that was now a swirling black, blue and violet energy.

Kane held out the one hand that was holding the energy that he had gathered, a red mass in his own hand. His left hand was holding on to his right arm as if to steady it.

"Big…" Vegeta's voice said as Vekisis's hands moved to his side, oddly resembling Goku's position for the Kamehameha.

"Bang…" Sakidra's voice rang out as the hands were brought in front of them, preparing to shoot out the beam.

"Blast!" The combined voice of Vekisis screamed as the ball of energy released at a swift rate, rushing to Kane.

"Evil's Retribution!" Kane shouted, releasing his own energy to clash with Vekisis's.

Trunks and Gohan were nearly blown back by the energy emitting from the combined blasts. Piccolo's cape was snapping violently behind him and Goku's hair looked like it was in the Super Saiyan do without the actual transformation.

The two beams of energy clashed and retreated back and forth; a struggle of power that was dangerously even in this case.

Vekisis understood the weight of this beam. He had to win this struggle. It was their only chance for survival.

Alexis! Vegeta! I need you both to transform! Now!

What? We're already transformed!

What he said. How can we simply transform our consciousness'?

Just raise your power level! I need more energy for this attack, now! Kane's overpowering me!

He is not! You're even with him! We're even with him!

We need to overpower him! Not be even with him! I'm powering up, I need you both to do the same or we risk splitting!

We'll try.

The energy of Vekisis rose dramatically and the clashing beams moved closer to Kane. He tried inputting more energy, but he couldn't regain the lost ground, only stand where he was.

Only…a bit more…

"Ahhhh!" Vekisis screamed as the energy burst forth from his hands, completely overpowering and disintegrating Kane where he stood.

"No!" Came the faded voice from the explosion.

"Agh!" Vekisis grunted as he landed on his knees, close to collapsing after the energy struggle with Kane.

"Guys!" Trunks yelled as he flew to their side, making sure they were okay.

"Is he…gone?" Came the voice that sounded more like Sakidra.

"Yeah. He is." Trunks said.

"Good—" Sakidra choked out before collapsing. A light surrounded Vekisis before dimming and revealing the three solitary warriors, all three on their knees or less.

Alexis was the first one up, soon kneeling down and helping his sister on to her feet. Sakidra looked down to Trunks who was making sure Vegeta was all right.

"What's wrong with him?" Trunks asked.

"He's asleep. He was exhausted." Alexis said.

"He had to use the most of his power in order to not only keep up the fusion, but also do the combined transformation that we were forced to keep up. I still had to scream at him…" Sakidra said, weakly chuckling along as Alexis guided her to the area where Goku and the others were.

"We ought to get back to Capsule Corp., eh?" Alexis mumbled weakly to Piccolo.

"Yeah." He responded.

"Let's go then. Gohan, I'll need your help with her…" Alexis said.

"Shove off… I don't need any…help." Sakidra said as she collapsed onto Alexis. Alexis shrugged in response.

"See what I mean?" He said. Gohan came up and balanced Sakidra over his shoulders before lifting off and flying her back to Capsule Corp.

"I'll take my father. See you there." Trunks said as he too started his flight with Vegeta sprawled over his shoulders.

"I have Goku. You go back alone. You can manage it, right?" Piccolo asked as he started his flight.

"Yeah…" Alexis said weakly as he hovered into the air, following Piccolo…

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next day, the entire group, including Roshi and Eighteen had come to send us off. Alexis and I had decided to take his own pod back, realizing that it would be the fastest.

"Do you really have to go?" Gohan asked before we jumped into the crater.

"I'm sorry, Gohan, but we do. I have to go back to Kamorae and relieve Charakka of whatever he's doing. I'm sure he's constantly exhausted by now. I have a planet to lead so I have no choice." I explained.

"Man! I wish you could stay here. I liked having someone other than Goku that really got on Vegeta's nerves." Yamcha said.

"Um… That's not exactly the wisest thing to say, but I guess you have a point." Alexis said.

"I'll miss your company." Bulma said to the both of us, giving Alexis and me a hug before going back to Vegeta's side.

"I'll be back, I assure you. I just can't say when. I'll admit that I have a lot of things that I have to take care of. Charakka will be exceptionally happy that I will be able to come home now. Right, Alexis?" I asked, turning to him.

"Yeah. I think he will be. He and Sukara will be ecstatic." Alexis replied.

"Charakka? Sukara? I don't remember you mentioning them." Vegeta spoke up for the first time.

"Oh. Charakka would be…your step-brother and Sukara would be your niece." I explained…

"You never mentioned that you had a daughter." Chi-Chi said.

"Yeah… She's about seven now. She's turning into an excellent fighter. I haven't seen her in a long time." I explained.

Beep, beep.

"Speak of the devil." Alexis said, taking out the black communicator that he had on him.

"What is it, Charakka?" I asked. "We were just about to go back to Kamorae."

"It's Sukara! Her power's fluctuating!" He yelled into the screen.

"What!" I yelled, almost as shocked. "Alexis! We have to go!" I yelled, dragging him into the pod.

"Bye! We'll be back, eventually." I called as I shut the automatic door.

"Bye!" Chorused the outside group.

"Are you in?" Alexis asked, setting the controls as I sat down in the co-pilot's seat.

"Yeah. Let's get out of here. 5 G thrust should get us out of here just fine." I said, setting the controls and readying the jets.

"Five…" Alexis started, typing madly.

"Four." I continued, finishing the commands.

"Three." He replied, setting his own commands.

"Two." I said, pressing the boost release.

"One." Alexis responded, pressing his own boost release.

"And we're outta here!" We both yelled, pouncing the boost buttons at the same time as we lifted off and out of Earth's atmosphere, heading home with the guarantee of being safe for the first time in ten years…

Fin

How did you like that? I loved the way I wrote it, but you may have a different opinion. If you could give me feedback on this chapter, finale, or story overall, I'd really appreciate it.

As for the name Vekisis, there is a combination of all three names in this. In case you're a bit slow and haven't caught on, Vekisis is a perfect combination of the names: Vegeta, Sakidra, and Alexis. I know there adds up to be an extra 's' but I don't care at this point.

As for the final attacks, Kane's was 'Evil's Retribution' and Vekisis's was takes breath :Final Chaos Shadowtwilight Big Bang Blast… I know, long but it was necessary.

As for the mental conversations. The first one is in this order: Vegeta, Sakidra, and Alexis. The longer one goes in this order: Sakidra, Alexis, Vegeta, Sakidra, Alexis, Sakidra, and Vegeta. The mental conversations are the more than one paragraph mental speaks with the bold, italic and underlined type.

As for another note, If you could look on my profile and give me a suggestion as to which fic I should start now that I'm practically finished with Mystic Saiyan. I probably won't start it until later this year or next summer, but it's nice to know. If you could either review or PM me with your suggestion, I would be appreciative. Thanks! The link for my profile is at the top…just click on my name…

Well, thank you for reading and sticking with this story but now is the end—WAIT! FREEZE! This isn't over yet! There is still an epilogue so stick around. Don't remove this story from your alert lists yet! There is still one more chapter of this so, I'll part with my excellent words: Till next time!
