AN: This is my first Dragon Ball fanfiction, and I am not well-versed in canon, so there may be some inaccuracies. This takes place in the anime continuity directly after Broly, so no Moro or Granolah. Without further ado, let's get to the story.

[Age: 781]

In space, directly above planet Xilia

"It sure is nice to get back to destroying planets, eh, Whis?" Beerus said.

"I still don't know if you should be destroying this planet, especially with the fact that it has an above-average mortal level," Whis spoke, gazing at Xilia.

"Relax, I've heard good things about the food here. I'll only destroy this place if the food is a disappointment," Beerus replied.

The planet was the fourth planet from a yellow dwarf star. It had lush, purple grass and a pale blue sky. The inhabitants, named Constellatians, were remarkably similar to humanity due to the similar circumstances of their origin, however, they had a longer lifespan and were much stronger due to the extreme 5x gravity of the planet. As a side effect, they were shorter than us, with the average person ranging in height from 4'11 to 5'7 for the males and 4'6 to 5'3 for the females.

On the planet, a 5'6 male alien that resembled a Caucasian/Japanese mix with reddish eyes, named Orian, celebrated his graduation from the planet's education system, at the age of 29. He was partying with family and friends, eating delicacies, swimming in a pool of the nutrient-rich water and playing the native sport of Xilian Chess Boxing, which sharpened both mental and physical acuity. Life was good.

At the top rated restaurant in Xilia...

Beerus and Whis make their entrance, pushing and shoving through the long line to enter the restaurant. The burly male owner tried to make them wait, saying, "You guys can't just barge in like that. Get to the back of the line, or I will have to call security, and that won't be good for either of us."

Beerus was simply indignant. "Tread carefully, mortal. You are speaking to this universe's God of Destruction. Prepare us your planet's best dish, or I'll destroy you." The Hakaishin aura emanating from Beerus told the owner that Beerus wasn't joking, and he recruited his best chefs to make an amazing dish.

Twenty minutes later, the divine duo was seated at the most luxurious table available with three courses at their fingertips.

The appetizer was a chowder made from the planet's oyster and clam equivalents. It had a thick, creamy broth and was lightly salted. Beerus and Whis took a bit in unison. Whis liked the dish, however, Beerus was unimpressed. "Too salty," he plainly stated.

The next dish was a fish and rice platter with an exotic sauce made from the hot water from the planet's geysers. Again, Whis enjoyed the dish, but Beerus thought that the sauce was "too hot".

The final dish was a fruit smoothie that had gelatin chunks strewn throughout. This time, Beerus enjoyed it as much as Whis did. "Delectable! However, your other dishes were too bland and seafood heavy. I suppose that I'll only have to destroy two-thirds of your planet." Everyone in the room let out a gasp of shock as their entire world turned into a blinding white light.

At the graduation party...

Orian was deliberating his next move in Xilian Chess Boxing when the ground started to be ripped apart with chasms forming all around the party. The sky turned blood red and the air started to crackle and spontaneously combust. Orian's father, Pherseus, was first, getting killed when his blood boiled and exploded from the heat, his body disintegrating into nothingness. His friends were killed instantly when the sonic shockwaves rippled across the planet, delivering a fatal concussive blow to the brain.

Orian emitted a scream of pure terror, as he watched everything and everyone he loved die, one by one.

"No, no, nononononono, please no!" Orian saw his mother, Scorpias, pinned beneath rubble. "Please, mom! Stay with me..." Blood poured out from her back, immediately vaporizing as a giant rupture in the ground neared her. "Orian... How you've grown. Remember, I will always love-" She was cut off as the fissure reached her and dropped her limp body into the molten core of the planet.

A shockwave launched Orian beneath a temporarily stable structure created from fallen rebar, concrete, and bricks, knocking him out.

Above the destroyed remains of Xilia...

"Hmm, it appears that I accidentally left my staff in the restaurant..." Whis admitted.

"The Grand Priest will not be pleased, but I guess we can go get a new one. The only problem is that it will take a whole hour to leave this universe, rather than the usual 30 minutes."

When Orian awoke, the structure had sealed him as if it was a tomb. Only one-third of the planet remained, barely having enough mass to hold an atmosphere with the core destroyed. It was merely a barren rock floating through space.

He used a small ki blast to knock the structure down, tired, crying, and bleeding from open wounds. He found Whis' staff on the ground, which piqued his interest, as staves were not a traditional weapon on Xilia. He picked it up and a hologram appeared above the circular section of the staff. The icons "Universe Status", "Store Object", "Divine Hierarchy", "Highest Power Levels", "Crystal Ball" and "Fast Travel" were visible.

Over the course of a few hours, Orian learned of the twelve universes, the GODs, Angels, Kais, and Zeno. He could not fast travel, though, likely due to his mortal status. While he was looking through the database, Orian spotted a few curious objects throughout the universes, labeled "Super Dragon Balls". He learned of the properties of these and made a plan.

"So this reality is ruled by obese or weak gods, indifferent angels, and a literal toddler, huh. Well, I won't stand for this! I will never kneel to the "gods" who killed my family. I will kill all of the gods and make the universe equal with the Super Dragon Balls!"

P.S.

I don't know if this will be the darkest chapter, or if I'll keep it edgy throughout. I'm thinking about Orian teaming up with Broly, what do you guys think?
