Chapter 12: An Angry Kamehameha Unleashed! Articho and Flying Nimbus Reunited
Everyone present at the hospital had a horrific expression on their faces.
"W-What do you mean Katsch's been cut in half?" Mikoto asked.
Misaki didn't say a word as this concerns them.
"Don't tell me... Did Articho do that?"
She continues to remain silent and the girls want to know.
"My Queen?"
"Articho did indeed win the battle." The Fifth Level Five breaks her own silence. "But Katsch wouldn't accept defeat and further humiliation, so she became desperate to kill him by resorting to using 'amateur' attacks. She was so blinded by her own newfound power that in a twisted ironic way, Katsch fell victim to her own said attacks. Now she's half the woman she use to be."
After hearing that caused the girls to look at her, shocked.
"Literally."
Meanwhile...
Articho was still staring down at Wendy. Lightning continues to strike. Rain continues to fall as thunder rumbles in the storm clouds.
"Well, you might've had this coming." The Time Patroller says. "But I've got to say though, I don't think I expected you to fall so hard."
Wendy started coughing as she is distraught over her own body being ruined.
"One way or another, I'll still be able to make my way back to my friends at the hospital." Articho continues as he begins walk away. "Meanwhile, you can lie there and think about what you've done as you share the same fate as the lives you destroyed."
The evil telepath continued coughing as the hybrid Saiyan started walking away.
"Please... H-Help me..." She struggles to say. "I beg of you..."
The boy stops in his tracks when he heard those words. This wasn't the first time someone as rotten as her said those exact same words. But this was long before the Time Patroller was even born.
"D-Don't... D-Don't leave me to like this."
(Regret - Dragon Ball Super OST plays)
Articho grits his teeth, conflicted. How could he show mercy to an enemy when they'll just turn on you at the last second? He swore to himself to never give them that chance. Especially to a psychopathic, genocidal false god who thinks mortals are beyond saving.
"All told, that guy's too cruel. Even for me." Frenda expresses. "I don't know. There's a story behind that stoic poker face of his."
"Perhaps something similar happened back when he was younger." The Level 5 deduced, placing a hand on her chin. "Or he was told a story about someone similar to the story."
"It could ultra be the latter." Kinuhata figured.
"Well, we don't know." Mugino shrugs. "It's not like we can just ask him ourselves."
Elsewhere...
"So he's just going to leave her there to die, huh?" The dirty blonde asked.
"A bit cliche, right?" The young blonde girl pointed out.
"Did you say something?" He asked, looking at her.
"I'm just saying." She told him. "Besides, we have someone to be cautious over now."
"I believe Gokusai has a point." The other girl the group admits.
"Um, who's this someone?" Yobou asks, coming back from the bathroom.
"Take a guess." Kakine declared.
"You mean, that guy." The young high schooler asked, looking at the monitor.
"It would appear so." Gokusai told him.
Meanwhile...
"What a load of crap." A albino teen exclaims. "I wouldn't leave anyone to die. I will at least let them grovel for mercy."
"You can't...do this." She continues to say.
Articho remained silent.
"You... can't...do...this!" She raises her voice.
"How many people asked you for mercy? Hundreds? Thousands?! What gives you the right to expect any?! Especially from me?!" Articho questions with a snap in his tone as he turned his head around at half her upper body.
"Please...please..." Wendy continues to beg. "I...beg you."
The Super Saiyan looks away and grits his teeth in frustration and annoyance.
The Time Patroller fires a yellow blast at her. But instead of it killing her, it restored some of her strength in her mutilated condition.
A familiar image flashes before his eyes.
Flashback...
Age: 762
Namek
Minutes before the planet's destruction
"There. I've given you some of my energy." Another Super Saiyan known as Goku says to the injured tyrant Frieza. "With any luck, it should be enough to get you off this planet before it blows. But that's all you get. You're on your own from here."
He then turns away before making his way back to Earth.
Present Day
The telepath started to slowly open her eyes. Looking up, she sees her enemy walking away from her.
This infuriated her once again.
She looks at her lower naked half. Although her legs and butt cheeks are attractive, they no longer can move.
"My body..." She shutters, feeling disgusted with herself. Wendy tries to sit up, struggling as she is without legs. "I can't..."
"Yeah, that tends to happen." The Super Saiyan told the injured Wendy. "You should cut your losses and find yourself a doctor. My own energy I gave you will last for about an hour."
He then continues to walk away before he stops to hear her chuckle at him.
"And might I wonder where you'll be while I'm on a time limit?" She questions with a smug expression.
Her only response she got out of him was a scoff who doesn't bother to look her in the eye.
"Are you even paying attention to me?" She further asks before sighing. "Whatever. What I'm asking is...are you going to see that Rambo wannabe I took out? Or maybe...that girlfriend of yours."
Articho remains silent, not interested in her gloating.
"Always the strong, silent type. Oh, the irony." She laughs. "He triumphs and then loses everything. The defeat is victorious. I hate to gloat, but there's a lesson on the virtue of mercy. It's only value is to your foe."
The Super Saiyan closes his eyes, thinking carefully about her words before opening them with a stoic but determined expression on his face, still not looking back at her.
"We'll see about that." Articho says before he starts emitting his Super Saiyan aura and flies away into the rainy sky.
The telepath was about to go after him, before she gasped. Then she remembers what he told her earlier.
As the Time Patroller continue soaring in the air, Wendy grits her teeth in anger.
"Simian bastard." She told herself, as she continues to see him going farther away "I'm Wendy Katsch. None surpass me. No one, not even the Level Fives, come close. Etch this into your skull. I am the future of Academy City! The likes of you are only picked-up rubble at my feet!"
Rain started falling from the sky. Articho continued to soar toward the hospital.
"Or better still. To die." The former student stares at him with hatred. "In disgrace...AT THE HANDS OF YOUR MASTER!"
In blind anger, she reaches out her right hand, and fire a red beam of energy at her enemy.
The long, black haired girl gasps in horror.
Articho quickly turns around, and gasped.
"YOU FOOL!" He roars, firing a yellow beam to intercept Wendy's own attack.
The yellow Angry Kamehameha beam pushes Wendy's back. She was doing her best to push the power back, unfortunately it proved too much for her to handle.
The blast started to head straight for her.
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
She cries out before being caught in the blast. Then there was a huge explosion.
Big enough to leave behind a huge crater in the street where it leads back to underground School District 22 as water from the rain begins to pour inside the hole.
(One Hit to Victory plays)
Articho, who is still floating in midair above the city, looks down with regret and anger as he clenched his right fist with enough pressure to cause his palm to bleed a little. Wendy had forced the Super Saiyan to break his morals that he swore, which was killing an opponent who still had some good left in their hearts that he can sense in them. The good that was enough to redeem themselves of the sinful actions they've committed. And now his one chance to save the Telepathic Esper from herself was all for naught.
With nothing left to save his fallen enemy, he turns away before flying at full throttle with his golden yellow aura active. As for those that have just witnessed Wendy's backstabbing and finally her death at the hands of the Super Saiyan, it shook them really hard with different opinions.
"Holy crap." Frenda expresses, shocked.
"He just ultra destroyed her with her own attack." Kinuhata pointed out.
"You mean, he overpowered her attack with his own." Takisubo corrects her.
"That appears to be so." Mugino agreed.
"Guys, did you see the expression he made after strucking the final blow?" The blond Norwegian asks. "He looked...regretful."
The girls were surprised hearing that from her. Then Mugino laughs it off.
"That's a good one, Frenda." Meltdowner compliments. "I didn't know you even have a good sense of humor. Wait. You're not joking, are you?"
"Afraid not." Her best friend sheepishly chuckles. "I have a keen eye for things like this."
The response Frenda got from the Fourth Ranked Level 5 was being constantly pounded to the ground by her foot.
"Are. You. Seriously. Being. Smug. Now?!" Mugino yells, completely annoyed by her friend's idiocy. Then the tea haired teen started grinding her barefoot on the girl's head. "Do I have to further your education, Bimbo?"
"Hehehe." Frenda started sheepishly giggling like an idiot. "Maybe."
Takisubo and Kinuhata sweatdrop once more at their weird relationship.
"Here we go again." The small chested girl pointed out, as she takes off her sweater. "You coming, Takisubo?"
"You guys go ahead. I'll catch up." She told her.
"If you say so." Kinuhata shrugs her shoulders, following their leader as she drags a giggling Frenda to one of the rooms.
Meanwhile, the girl wearing the tracksuit looks at the monitor with curiosity.
"So his name is Articho." She whispers to herself curiously. "I wonder if he's like my grandfather."
Elsewhere...
"Well that was unexpected." Rakko pointed out.
"So that girl got herself killed." Yobou comments. "That's a bit disappointing."
"Serves her right." Kakine says before spitting out some food in his mouth into a trash bin. "Pathetic. She was already outmatched and yet she continued to waste her strength in a fight she's lost."
"It doesn't surprise me at all." The blond girl casually admits. "She was way over her head."
"Looks like we found a very good reason to not underestimate this Level 4 Esper." The Level 0 sniper shrugs.
"It would appear so." The Level 5 answers. "But those moves of his aren't Level 4."
Everyone was surprised hearing that.
"You can tell?"
"Of course I can tell the difference!" He snaps. "Take a look at the screen! Does that kind of destruction look like that of a Level 4?!"
"I thought you said he's not stronger than you and Accelerator." Kaibi pointed out. "Then it would seem that he's stronger than all of the Level Fives. Including you, Kakine."
"Now let's not jump to conclusions just yet." He told his girlfriend.
Meanwhile...
"Well, it's over now." The albino teen exclaims, finishing up his coffee. "Better meet up with my 'appointment' soon."
Using his ability, he glided down the antenna.
"Oh my God." The black haired girl was shocked. "I can't believe that guy is so strong."
She then drops onto her knees, traumatized seeing a girl cut below the waist and then said girl backstabs him only to get herself killed.
"And that girl... Why couldn't she just give up?" She added, as she looks at the only remaining body part she can see. "Just what is going on?"
Curiosity got the better of her as she walks toward it. Examining it, she started poking at it to see if it will still move.
"Huh, nothing's happening." The girl then notices the color of the toe nails. "Peach color, huh?"
The teenager gazes at the feet, curiously. She rubs her fingers delicately across the nails. Then she went over and noticed that the area above her vagina had a slight patch of black hair.
"It's a good thing I can't grow pubic hair." She admits, before looking towards the sky.
The clouds the begin to dissipate, revealing a beautiful sunset in the distance.
"Everything seems to be back to normal now. Hopefully that'll stay for a while." The girl looks at her finger nails and tilts her head to the side, smiling. "Maybe I'll try out that color after all."
Unbeknownst to her, as she started walking away, both the feet and severed hand were starting to move.
Meanwhile...
"I failed." Articho told himself. "This wasn't supposed to happen."
He grits his teeth in anger and continues to fly to the hospital.
At a Certain Hospital...
"Look! There he is!" Mikoto says, seeing Articho flying in the distance towards the front entrance to the hospital. "It looks like he didn't."
"He sure did. But why does he look so sad?" Junko pointed out, looking at Articho's depressed expression.
The Super Saiyan then lands in front of the four Tokiwadai girls.
"Articho, did you defeat her? What happened to..."
"Are they all right?" He completely dodges their question with his own.
"The older man is alright." Kuroko answers. "He's already awake. Always telling us that he's alright."
"And Arisa?"
They all have dreaded faces on them.
"She's in stable condition." The blonde haired girl told him. "Her lung is badly damaged."
Articho, unfazed by her explanation, then puts his right index and right middle finger onto his forehead.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm going to talk to the old man." He answers before teleporting to Bardock's position inside the building. The girls were still surprised from that.
Articho reappears in front of the veteran Saiyan who slightly got spooked.
"Damn it, kid! At least enter the room the normal way."
Articho ignores his annoyance and tosses the older Saiyan a small bottle of healing medicine.
"Thought you might use it again." He says before using his Clothes Beam on Bardock's damaged armor on a table, reverting it back to it's clean state.
"You didn't have to do that, Articho." Bardock deadpans. "But nevermind that. I sensed what happened over there."
"Is Arisa still in her hospital room? The girls downstairs told me about her current condition. I need to get her to the rejuvenating chamber that's back at the house."
"Glad to see you came prepared before coming to this universe." His teacher chuckles.
"This isn't the time to joke about it, Bardock!" He snaps at him. "Do you know where she's being kept at? Her ki is too faint for me to lock onto with Instant Transmission. I need to see her. Now!"
"How should I know?" He casually shrugs. "It's not really my problem."
"Bardock!"
"Calm the hell down." He told him. "If I remember correctly, she's somewhere in the room above mine. That's all I know."
"Thanks." Articho nods before he runs out of the room.
"That kid really is in love, huh?" The veteran Saiyan smirks. "We Saiyans always like strong women."
A few moments later...
Sliding the door open, Articho sees an unconscious Arisa hooked up on life support.
He sighed in relief.
Articho walks toward the girl's bedside and got a better look at her current state. Taking a a deep breath, he lets it all out and reverts back to his jet black haired base form.
"She's really been through a lot." He pointed out, caressing her cheeks.
The boy disconnects her from the life support machine and picks her up, carrying her in bridal style as an alarm goes off.
"You're gonna be alright, Arisa. I'm gonna get you all fixed up." He assures the unconscious and injured girl.
Arriving on the hospital roof, Articho sighs while carrying Arisa.
"Man, I can't believe I have to carry her while flying simultaneously." He groans. "Argh, if only I have my flying Nimbus with me!"
Soon he started to levitate, hovering above the air. Just then, he sees something in the distance from the horizon.
And it was getting closer.
"Wait, is that...?" Articho questions, realizing what it is.
He sees a flying cloud heading towards him, with incredible speed.
Articho gasps with his mouth open, smiling.
"Yo, Nimbus!" He waves at the sentient yellow cotton candy looking cloud. "Over here!"
He then descends back onto the ground for a proper reunion.
The flying cloud started moving around, like a puppy.
Nimbus then reaches ground level, excited to see her owner.
"I don't believe it. You're here!" Articho happily exclaims.
"I'm glad to see you girl." She then perform a few spins as a form of sign language. "Huh? You followed me and Black through the wormhole, and then ended up in the middle of a giant desert?"
Nimbus replies with two spins. She then continues to spin again, talking.
"My clothes?" He looks at his torn up gi. "Oh! It's a long and awesome story. Minus the tragic ending, but hey! Glad to see you here."
Nimba started moving around, excitedly.
"Alright, alright." He chuckles. "I'll fill you in later. Right now, this girl needs our help. Can you take us to the Capsule house? It's in the city's forest outskirts."
The yellow flying cloud gave a nod.
"Awesome!" Articho grins. "Let's get going."
Nimbus lowers down to the ground, and started extending her size.
Articho carefully lays her down on top of the flying cloud.
"Wow. It looks like Arisa has a pure heart of good in her." Articho then hops onto Nimbus and smiles.
"Cha la, head cha la!" He sang before sitting down and points his finger in the direction they should be going. "All right, girl. Show me how fast you can get us. Full speed ahead!"
The cloud started zipping away, heading for the direction her owner showed.
"What?!" The Tokiwadai girls exclaimed at the Frog-face doctor. "She's gone?!"
"I'm afraid so." Heaven Canceller nods.
This annoyed Kuroko.
"Why in the world would Articho take Arisa out of the hospital while she's on life support?" She questions. "She can't go anywhere in her condition."
"Do you think it might be possible that he has a way to heal her?" Junko guessed.
"He does." Bardock answers, spooking the girls as he just came out of nowhere.
"What do you mean?" The chestnut haired girl asked, confused. "And you should be resting."
"I'm a grown man, kid." He eye rolls. "Articho gave me an old remedy I've been using long before he was born."
"Seriously?!"
"My injury was only minor." He explains. "That girl of his ended up with a damaged lung, so she'll need to be in a tank full of S.P.U.G."
"Spooge?" The girls were confused.
"Super Polymorphic Unleashing Gel." He says. "Don't ask about the weird acronym. I didn't name the damn thing."
"And are you sure that's going to help her?"
"I've lost track of how many times I've almost died on the battlefield." The veteran Saiyan crosses his arms. "But the recent batch is powerful enough to repair damaged organs or regrow missing limbs. Even eradicate blindness. As long as the injuries aren't beyond the medicine's efficacy."
Everyone was shocked hearing that.
"Sorry, who the hell exactly are you again?" Kuroko rudely questions with a suspicious glare at the adult. "You just randomly showed up to save Articho and clearly you seem to be well acquainted with him."
"Who me? I'm the kid's old mentor." Bardock answers to the group. "No wait. That's not the right word. I'm his drill instructor. You may not believe me and you don't need to, but let's just say that I'm a distant relative of his."
"I guess that explains the hair." Mikoto deduced. "And if what you say is true, then we'll hope for her safe recovery."
Nimbus lands in front of the Capsule House.
"Home sweet home." Articho says, getting off his flying cloud.
As he starts to walk, the young Time Patroller winced in pain, holding the side of his upper body with his hands before getting on one knee.
Nimbus started to gently bump into him, concerned about his injuries.
"I'm fine, Nimbus." The boy assures her. "We've got a job to do. So let's bring her inside."
Articho unlocks the front door to let the flying cloud carrying the unconscious Arisa inside the household before he follows inside, and closes the door behind him.
The girl on the cloud was groaning in her sleep.
"Articho..." She mumbles.
He gave a small smirk.
"Hang in there, Arisa."
Entering a small room, Articho sees the rejuvenating chamber in front of him as he turns on the light.
"Here it is." He announced, as the yellow flying cloud brings the unconscious Arisa.
"Now I need to get her naked for this to take full effect." He mutters, blushing slightly. "Too bad I don't have a sports bra and undies for her to wear while inside the tank."
Careful not to hurt his injured friend, he starts removing her damaged school uniform till she was completely naked.
Gently putting her inside the tank and put a breather over her mouth, he closes the front hatch and begins to press a few buttons.
The tank then begins to be flooded with an aqua blue warm liquid, enveloping the girl inside the machine.
With the tank full, he sets the timer on how long the effects of S.P.U.G. take effect on Arisa's damaged lung.
"Two hours should be enough." He deduced, as he takes out the same medicine from earlier.
Articho takes it, and started to feel rejuvenated as his injury started to heal from the battle he had.
"Much better." He sighed in relief. "Since she's going to be in there for a while, I suppose I could prepare dinner and tell you everything what happened. And knowing them, they'll show up as well."
Nimbus was very curious about who he was talking about.
Inside of Arisa's subconscious...
Arisa was floating in darkness, inside of her mind.
"W-Where am I?" She wonders. The popstar looks down to see her nude form.
"And why am I even naked?" She blushes as her long pink hair floats in the empty space. "My hair..."
Suddenly, the ground appears out of nowhere as her feet then touches it.
"Am I supposed to be dreaming now?" Arisa questions to herself. Looking around, she still sees an endless void. "I guess I am."
In the distance, she can see some light.
"Hmm? What's that light over there?" Arisa asked curiously walks towards it.
As she walks closer, the popstar was able to see several specs of light floating around what appears to be a small lake.
"Oh wow. It looks like a whole universe." She was amazed, examining the water.
When Arisa got close enough, one of the small orbs of light then touches above her right breast. The girl yelps at this.
"Hey! That tickles!"
But then, it latched onto her, making a part of the girl's body glow.
It begins to slowly spread.
She tries to pull it off, but touching it only got onto her hands, spreading all over her fingers and the rest of her arm.
"What the?!"
One by one she starts screaming as the orbs of light latch onto her.
"Why is this happening?!" But her screams were then silenced.
Soon after that ordeal, the popstar is now completely covered. Head to toe.
Everything went white.
Eventually, Arisa opened her eyes.
She finds herself to be in outer space. Or to be more specific, she's floating in orbit above a large red planet.
"Whoa." She says in awe. "This is amazing."
Then she covers her mouth, realizing that she spoke in a different voice.
"Wait. What's wrong with my voice?!" She says, now knowing that something is wrong. "I wish that I had a mirror to see what's wrong."
Arisa looks at her hands as they are pink skinned. Not to mention that her height has shrunk to that of a child.
"I'm tiny?!" She exclaimed, beginning to freak out. Arisa puts her hands on her head, to try and relax. That was until she felt her ears. "..."
They were pointy. Like a certain green Jedi Master or even an elf from a few movies she watched throughout her childhood.
"Are these what I think they are." She told herself, feeling all around her new ears. "They are."
Just then, a mirror suddenly shows up in front of her. Surprised by this, the popstar decided to look at her new appearance.
She is short in stature. Sports shoulder length bright pink hair (compared to her faded shade of colored hair) and has a pink skin tone. Aside the pointy ears, she wears a pair of cool looking earrings with the orb shaped jewel being yellow. And her nails are glazed as the same color of her skin.
Not to mention the snazzy outfit she's wearing.
"This is a very peculiar outfit. This makes me look like a miniature genie." She theorizes before shaking her head. "No, no, no. That's not it. A genie is supposed to be half naked."
Still keeping her gaze towards the red planet, Arisa believed it was best to go down there and see what's going on.
However, the real action is right above her as an army high above the world in the lower atmosphere simultaneously collided their ki blasts at something.
"FRIEZAAA!!!" A familiar voice in the dust shouts with a war cry.
Emerging from the dust was none other than Bardock - battle damaged and bloodied due to the state of his armor - elbow punches one of the soldiers in the face with his left arm's elbow joint before continuing to fly towards a large spaceship as more soldiers wearing identical armor as the veteran Saiyan is tried to stop him. Of course, he easily overpowers them as he plows through his only obstacle standing in his way.
Arisa looks up when she heard the explosion and voice, becoming shocked as she recognizes him from a distance. Who else wears a blood soaked bandana like that?
"That's Bardock." Arisa guesses. "Wait. How do I even know his name?"
She continues to observe the battle above the planet.
"Frieza! Show yourself! Come out and face me, you coward!" He calls out with rage in his voice.
The top hatch to the spaceship opens up as a horned alien in short stature - sitting in a hover chair - rises out.
The Emperor of Universe 7, Frieza, hears the chatter going on between his men as they are relieved to see their leader joining the battle. He simply ignores them, focusing more on the rebellious Saiyan before his very own sinister eyes.
"So this is the legendary Super Saiyan?" The unfazed tyrant questions aloud before a giving out a sarcastic remark to his foe. "How very unsavory."
"Frieza's personality reminds me of Katsch's."
Suddenly, Bardock's (and Arisa's) surroundings glitched out due to a time distortion.
Frieza's appearance changed as he is in his Golden form, smirking evilly. But it wasn't at Bardock, however.
Confused, Bardock hears an aura but with a shimmering sound. He turns his head to see what confuses him even more.
"Goku?" Arisa wonders but realizes that she somehow knows the name. "I know his name, too?"
Before her is Son Goku, who is the spitting image of Bardock. He wears an orange gi with a blue sash, arm bands, and boots. Of course, his gi is much different from Articho's due to how it's designed and all.
But what caught the girl's interest was the form he's taken. Sporting cyan blue hair that spiked upwards, matching eyes, and a blue aura, Goku is a Super Saiyan Blue.
"Allow me to continue my vengeance."
The two archenemies then got into their fighting stances before charging towards each other, resulting in a blinding explosion that made Bardock snapping back to reality where first form Frieza is looking down at him.
"Heh, heh. Everything changes." Bardock chuckles, losing a bit sanity of having visions of the future. "It all comes down to this: my fate, planet Vegeta's, Kakarot's!"
The evil emperor raises his index finger to form a tiny ki orb, unfazed by the veteran Saiyan's words.
"And yes..." The Saiyan grins crazily, opening his right palm as he chuckles again. "Yours too, Frieza."
His hand then forms a blue orb of ki that's the size of a dodge ball.
With a battlecry, Bardock throws his Riot Javelin hard at his foe.
Frieza then begins to laugh as the tiny orb grew in size.
The Riot Javelin then collides the giant ball resembling the Earth's sun, completely absorbed.
"W-What the-?!" Bardock gasps in shock.
Frieza's Supernova continues to grow up to be the size of a giant meteorite. Laughing, the evil emperor throws his attack with his finger.
Bardock then charges up more energy in his hand and with a roaring yell, fires a beam of energy called Tyrant Lancer.
The beam collides with the Supernova and tries to stop the attack, but it proved to be too much for a Saiyan with a power level of over 10,000 as the sun like death ball continues to overpower Bardock's attack.
"AAAHHHHHH!" He screams as the Supernova engulfs him, as it slowly vaporizes him. "K-Kakarot."
He then smiles and chuckles with Saiyan pride, seeing one last vision of his grown up son as death takes hold of him.
"KAKAROOOOOOOOT!!!"
Unbeknownst to him as he is inside of the giant death ball, a mysterious purple wormhole tears open and pulls Bardock inside just before the Supernova could disintegrate him.
"Bardock!" Arisa called out.
The giant sun ball then collides with planet Vegeta, tearing it apart. Until eventually the planet was destroyed.
Frieza started laughing, about what he has done.
Then everything turns to white.
Opening her eyes again, Arisa finds herself in a city in ruins with a huge rainfall from a thunderstorm.
Lightning flashes in front of her from a distance before a loud, monstrous roar is heard.
This scared the elf-looking girl.
"W-What was that?!" She asked. "That sounded like-"
Something rather gigantic crashes down a bunch of wrecked buildings and Arisa jumps out of the way, avoiding being crashed into.
When the dust cleared, Arisa gasps in fright, covering her screaming mouth and hides behind cover.
What she saw was a giant gorilla looking monster lying on the ground, covered in bruises and cuts. The creature sports glowing red eyes, sharp teeth, and a monkey tail. And instead of chocolate brown hair covering his body like normal primates do, it's fur is literally a gold yellow color.
"Is that a giant gorilla with a tail, and why is its fur gold?" Arisa whispers to herself.
The giant Golden Ape growls, extremely pissed off as it gets back up on its feet. The monster's movements shook the ground the girl walks. Suddenly, a blackish green cloud drops from the sky like a tornado as it bears glowing red eyes as well. The cloud then lands on a rooftop, glaring at the Golden Ape.
The popstar gasped in horror.
The misty cloud hiding its true form dissipates, reveals itself. Correction: reveals himself.
"It's him." Arisa whispers. "The man in black."
Goku black smirks, with a evil grin.
"Is that all you can muster to test my limits?" He mocks the giant gorilla monster. "What a disappointment. To think that this possible future of a version of the main timeline would offer me a challenge."
"Black." Arisa grips her hand into a fist. "That name I somehow know as well. And yet, it always scares and disgusts me."
She was still surprised that she knows all these people, even if she never seen them before.
"What I don't understand is why he looks like Goku. It's true that Goku resembles Bardock. But the shape of their eyes are way different." She pointed out.
"Face it. A monster like yourself should die. Alone. In the dirt. Just. Like. Your. Family. And the rest of humanity I mercifully ended."
"My family?" The monster speaks, completely catching the hiding girl off guard. "There's only one monster around here. YOU!"
The beast then opens its mouth open, and fires a giant fire ball of ki at its prey. Black had a panicked expression on his face, realizing he dropped his own guard.
He crosses his arms, blocking the attack that exploded upon impact.
The Golden Ape reappears from behind, floating in midair and raises its foot over the false Saiyan.
"DIE!"
The gorilla-like creature then slams it foot down. How, the false Saiyan was stronger than he looks.
"Weak." Goku Black exclaimed, holding on to the Golden Apes foot. He then attacks, sending the gorilla backwards.
Then everything turns to white again.
Arisa opens her eyes, finding out that the battle is about to end.
The Golden Ape flies toward Black with a roar ready to fire another fireball from his mouth.
However, the false Saiyan had other ideas after realizing that he cannot defeat him even though the former is stronger than the latter. And the injuries he has sustained were proof of that. Unfortunately, not severe enough for a huge Zenkai boost to his Saiyan cells.
"I never expected a mortal child to last longer than Trunks has ever done." Black admits in his thoughts. "I must retreat. Look for another timeline to travel to in an effort to become stronger before that sword swinger finds a way to return to the future I've laid waste upon."
As the monster's mouth lights up to fire (no pun intended), the false Saiyan quickly spun around, forming a yellow ki disk with a black core in the center.
"Haaaaa!!!" He yells before throwing the projectile at the beast.
Black controls the disk telekinetically and have it aimed at the Golden Ape's tail.
In a split second, it sliced through it.
The beast roars in pain, losing focus on powering up its attack and crashes the ground, wrecking it.
"You should feel honored, Saiyan." The victor chuckles, before wincing in pain. "You're the first ever mortal to have force me to use up almost all of my ki. Goku and Trunks never came close to pull that off. Well, not Goku since I've killed him before."
"C-Cowardly bastard." It curses in anger. "I'll kill you. I'll damn well kill your ass!"
The tailess Golden Ape loses its hair color, reverting back to brown. It looks up to see Black raising his hand up, doing something.
Now pissed, the gorilla monster grabs hold of Black, who gasps in disbelief.
"Your resisting the change back to your normal form?!"
"You're not going anywhere."
The Great Ape then crushes one of Black's arms, causing him to scream in agony.
After letting go of him, it clenches its right hand into a fist before raising it over the false and crushes him with it. Raising it again, the beast sees Black lying in a crater.
With a sadistic grin, it crushes him with its fist again.
And again and again until the Great Ape can no longer remain in its current form due to losing its tail.
"Puny...god." It utters with a painful grin before roaring as the sound of crushing bones was a sign of losing its current state.
After reverting back to normal, Arisa saw a very familiar person.
"A-Articho?" She was confused. The popstar then blushes deeply.
The monster turned out to be Articho, no older than eight years of age. And literally naked with the cut off stump of his tail lodged inside the back of his waist.
She ran over to see a 8-year-old version of her friend falling unconscious.
But as she does so, her mind went blank. Then her eyes dilated for a moment, before returning to normal again.
The elf-like girl continues walking walking towards the young hybrid Saiyan.
"Thankful he's still breathing." She deduced, smiling. "But who exactly was that? And was he wearing a Time Ring?"
The young Articho started groaning in his sleep.
"Mom... Dad.…"
She gave a sad smile, feeling sympathy for the boy.
"Poor kid. He no longer has a family." The pink skinned girl says. "He's all alone."
The boy started wincing in pain, at the loss of his tail.
"This future timeline is now out of balance. And all of its Dragon Balls have been destroyed." She continues to express sadness before looking at the rubble burying Black. "And whoever this Saiyan is, he's gone through a lot of trouble to do all of this...senseless genocide."
Just then, time begins to distort and the elf-looking girl holds her head with both her hands, screaming in agony.
"AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" Arisa suddenly started to have another vision.
What she sees disturbs her to the core. In front of her is Articho, with a knife through his stomach.
Her eyes widen in fear.
"Articho!" She screams in horror.
The injured hybrid Saiyan begins to fall on his back, but the popstar catches him in her arms.
"Oh God, I'm so sorry!"
The boy started to mouth something to her, but no words were heard from him. Then her vision started to fade out.
"No. No." Her voice begins to echo out. "NOOOOOOOO!!!"
The girl's eyes open and sits up in bed with a gasp. Arisa started panting, as her skin is glazed with her sweat.
"What a nightmare." She told herself, as the blanket falls off of her. The popstar then realize that she was naked.
She then looks around to find herself in a hospital room.
Then there was a knock at the door, which got her attention.
"Who is it?" She asked, covering herself back up.
"Arisa?" Articho's voice calls out behind the door.
"Articho!" She called out, smiling. Without knowing it, she took off the blanket and spread her legs wide. "You can come in."
The door to the room slides open, as the young man walks in. He was surprised to what he saw.
"Whoa."
"I'm so glad to see you." She coos, seductively. Inside her head, she is screaming to herself, confused from what she is doing.
"I-I can see that." The Time Patroller admits, sheepishly. "Trying to seduce me?"
The popstar giggles.
"You obviously know the answer to that." She told him, waving one of her fingers. "Want to make love to your goddess, my champion?"
Without being told twice, Articho quickly closes the door and removes his gi in a flash. Now that his clothes are on the floor, he stands before Arisa with his muscular body and hard throbbing cock. He was around 13 inches long and 3 inches wide. She was surprised to see that the Saiyan was so big, for someone his age. And no public hair to begin with.
"I thought you'd never ask." He smiles, preparing to give his goddess the best fuck of her life. The two embrace into a hug, and started making out with each other. Articho leans over to her left ear. "I have to ask you something."
"Go ahead."
"Arisa...why did you lie to me?"
She was confused, hearing that.
"What? I don't understand?"
"You know what I'm talking about. Liar."
The girl gasps at the harsh word he gave her.
"Articho, I..." She tries to explain herself."
"I don't want to hear any of your excuses. Not this time." He coldly told her. "You said you could help me get my family back."
Hearing that, got her to realize what he was talking about.
"I..."
Articho slaps her across the face.
"I can't believe I put my trust into a selfish bitch like you." He blurts out, with venom his voice. The hybrid Saiyan pushes her back onto the bed. "We're done."
Arisa became heartbroken, hearing that. She couldn't do nothing as tears started falling from her eyes.
"I think I should punish you for not keeping your promise."
"What?!"
"Let's see what happens when I decide to pop your beautiful cherry." He whispers. "And get you knocked up."
Using his strong strength, he moved her hips apart and drives his shaft straight into Arisa's virgin pussy. Her hymen was instantly torn, as she screamed in agonizing pain, from the forcible loss of her virginity. Looking down at her pussy, she sees that his penetration made her bleed out a lot. The hybrid Saiyan moved backwards. Then he drove forward again, but this time, he held his place, tight against Arisa, his dick buried deep into her, pushing past her cervix, and into her womb. He was never gentle to begin with. He grabs onto her breasts with a vice grip, as he started fucking the popstar faster. Arisa was crying that her friend would rape her.
Articho continued humping into his goddesses deflowered cunt, driven mad with lust. The warmth and slickness of the popstar's pussy was heaven-sent. His only concern now was dumping his load into her fuckhole.
"Are you enjoying this?" He sarcastically asked, not slowing down with his thrusting and giving out a sadistic grin.
"No! No, I'm not!" She told him, clawing at his chest to stop him.
"Too bad." He told her, going even faster. His balls slapped against her rear.
Articho growls, furiously thrusting away at the pink haired female as she continues to let him use her however he wishes. She started to moan, making her shocked that her body was enjoying this. Then, he grabs her knees, and fucks Arisa like a beast. The popstar started crying and moaning like a bitch in heat. And then... She realized abruptly he was close to cumming, and he was going to do it in her pussy. She shook her head, but he just grinned, and started picking up the pace.
"Here it CUMS!"
Articho roars, as he released his enormous load into her fertile pussy. She clearly understands that she is now pregnant. He pulled out, as his cum leaks out of her. Articho leans over to her left ear.
"It's done, Arisa." He's smirked, nibbling at her ear. When he was satisfied, he decided to fuck her again.
Arisa continued to cry, embracing the fact that her best friend violated her body. Her vision started to turn black.
"Now don't look at me like that. You only have yourself to blame." He told her, continuing to use her as a pleasure toy.
Back in the real world...
Arisa gasps awake in bed as her pink eyes open with tears in her eyes.
Slowly sitting up, she finds herself sleeping in Articho's only bedroom in the Capsule house.
"So it was just a dream." She sighed in relief, but was still afraid. "But it felt so real."
Looking underneath her blanket she checked her most important thing between her legs.
"Thank goodness." Arisa announced, seeing no blood at her womanhood. "You know, I never seen Articho so furious with me. Well, with the exception of me being an idiot sometimes. But never to sexually abuse me."
The girl pulls off the sheets to find herself in her white laced bra and thong.
"Hold on, how did I get here?" She questions. "Last thing I remember was..."
She gasped, remembering what happened to her. Wendy shot her with some kind of energy beam, causing her to collapse with her blood coming out.
"Articho!" Jumping out of bed, she accidentally stubbed her pinky toe. "Fuck!"
She curses before covering her mouth in shock.
Massaging her toe for a moment, she grabs a pink colored loose shirt to cover up her modesty and started searching for the hybrid Saiyan.
Entering the living room that's just across the small dining room, Arisa finds Articho's torn up gi pants, wristbands, sash belt, and boots littered on the floor.
She finds her friend sleeping on the couch with a blanket over him from head to toe, snoring.
Arisa smiles, seeing his sleeping face.
"Can't...I can't...eat another bite." He mutters in his sleep. "I'm so full."
The pink haired girl started giggling.
"He must have eaten a lot." Arisa deduced, before she started to blush from a certain area on Articho.
She had just witnessed his manhood spring up and grow in size beneath the blanket. She also notices him smiling in his sleep without him even noticing the erection.
"Hang on. If he saw me naked the other day, then seeing him naked makes us even, right?" She pointed out, getting a little embarrassed.
"Arisa... You're cooking is amazing... If you weren't my friend, I would marry you." He chuckles. "Well, I don't mean that literally."
Arisa was surprised hearing that, as her heartbeat started to race.
"Do you think I should tell him?" She told herself, remembering what happened in her mind. "Maybe I should tell him about my original identity to him."
She was about to wake him up, before hesitating.
"But then, he'll do the same thing to me in my nightmare." She realized. "Oh man. This is so hard."
Arisa started pacing the floor, wondering what she should do.
The young Time Patroller turns in his sleep for a moment. Then he suddenly opens up his eyes, staring at the sight of the girl he saved moving around.
"Eh?" He questions before his eyes widen and jumps out of bed. "Arisa, you're finally awake!"
She was surprised hearing his voice. Then the next moment shocked her even more, as Articho hugs her for behind and started swinging her around.
"I'm so glad you're awake!" He called out with joy. "I thought you would never wake up. But you have."
He then stops swinging her around and sees Arisa having swirly eyes, completely dizzy.
"Oops, sorry." He told her, placing her down. "Couldn't control myself."
"No, it's okay." She told him, swirling around all over the place. "I'm glad to be alive."
The young man smiled, before holding her head to stop her spinning.
"What happened with your fight with Wendy?"
His face became filled with regret and anger, clenching his fists.
But before he could explain, the front door started knocking.
"It must be them." He figured it out, making his way towards the door.
"Articho, your-!" She warns him with a deep blush on her face.
Not hearing Arisa, he opened the door.
"Hey guys." The Time Patroller greets.
The people in front of him had blushing faces as they all gasped at seeing him butt naked.
"What's wrong?" Articho asks, confused. "Is there something on my face?"
"More like what you're not wearing!" Mikoto pointed out, turning red like Mario's hat.
"Huh?" He blinked his eyes twice before looking down.
His face becomes completely red and turns around to see Arisa all freaked out while still blushing.
"Oh, crap baskets." He sighs with a slouching pose.
"AHHHHHH!!!" The popstar screams the top of her lungs.
(SLAP)
Elsewhere...
In a dark room, there is a lit up vat in the center.
"So it would appear that the legends are true." Inside said tube was something that could only be described as a human, but an odd one at that. The person floated inside the tube, upside down and wore a hospital gown. He or she, on one could really be sure, had both male and female features, having waist length hair, a petit yet masculine build, and a face that would fit on either a man or a woman. "I always thought they were nothing but a myth."
The human in question was looking at a few holographic monitors of Articho. Most of the separate footage shows nothing that not even he can see since the hybrid Saiyan was fighting at instant speeds. Almost or literally faster than light.
One particular monitor, showed the area that Wendy was originally. While another shows Articho going Super Saiyan after Arisa and that mystery man wearing a red bandana were shot unconscious.
"Miss Katsch was a very formidable opponent to the Saiyan."
Then something came up on one of the other monitors. He believes he saw the corpse of the former student, however the body was slowly moving.
"Hmm? What have we here?" The monitor zooms in, showing a badly damage Wendy struggling to stand up. "So it appears that she survived."
Just then, a familiar dirty blonde hair teen landed in front of her as she collapsed.
"So Dark Matter decided to be involved, huh?" The man questions curiously. "Curious."
Just then, two people reappear out of nowhere and the man in the vat closes the monitors.
"Thanks, Musujime." A blond spiky haired teenage boy wearing shades says to a girl with maroon haired pigtails wearing a school uniform coat as a cape.
"No problem." The girl tells him, before disappearing.
"Yo! How's it going, Aleister?" The boy greetly waves to his superior.
"Today was sure eventful. Wasn't it?" The one called Aleister asks, confusing his spy.
"You mean from all of those earthquakes? And the storm?"
"Correct, Tsuchimikado." He telepathically confirms. "That was the result of a Saiyan fighting his opponent."
"A Saiyan?" The boy asks. "You mean like the one from the legends?"
"Possibly." The being in the tube answers. "I just need to observe him more to confirm my theory."
"I hope you're right about this." The spy optimistically says, fixing his shades back in place. "But anyway, you wanted to see me?"
"Of course." His superior tell him. "I have need of your expertise once more."
"Sure, I'm always here to help. So what do you need me to do?"
Aleister brings up holographic footage of Articho fighting Wendy to Tsuchimikado.
"I want you to investigate of how Wendy Katsch was able to obtain her newfound strength." He explains. "Discreetly. She is now in the care of SCHOOL."
This got the teenagers interest.
"I'll see what I can do." Tsuchimikado told him. "But what do we do about her survival?"
"As far as that Saiyan is concerned, she was eradicated from the explosion." Aleister pointed out.
"And since you're continuing your observation on the new guy, what do you hope to learn from him? I don't think he'll like it that he's being watched."
"Leave that to me." The Superintendent casually replies. "Your concern is noted."
"Oh, I wasn't being concerned about you." The blonde boy explains, walking away. "Just know this: he isn't like Kami from the footage you showed me. He wouldn't like it if he was being manipulated for your own purposes."
The girl from earlier came back to teleport the teen out of the room.
When he was gone, the man in the tube gave a wicked smirk.
Unbeknownst to him, however, someone is lurking in the shadows, watching.
"Well then. It looks like my little test has paid off." The mysterious figure who is invisible to Aleister's eyes says. "Now that I know that I can make even espers have the strength that can rival a Saiyans, I can be able to continue my research."
The figure steps out the shadows to reveal himself.
He's a purple-skinned male with red eyes and white hair. The man also has pointed ears. But his most iconic feature are his katana - sheathed behind his waist - and a pair of glasses.
"That last fight between Articho and Zamasu the other day was something else, but turning the renegade Supreme Kai of Universe 10 into a cookie and then seal him away in a teapot with the Mafuba?! I'm definitely geeking out about it! The irony, man!"
He started laughing hysterically.
"But then there's Bardock." He started thinking. "I never expected to see him still kicking around. He's one tough bastard."
The purple-skinned man then straighten out his glasses.
"No matter. That won't be enough to stop my plans. Bardock's not Vegito Blue or the Goku and Vegeta I know, who have a really annoying habit of trashing my lab. Ruining my experiments!"
He then decides to grin.
"Now I need to find some more test subjects." He declares. "But for now, the real experiment begins."
This in the end though the New World Saga. Next time will be the Level Upper, see you then for more Super Dragon Ball Heroes: Articho's New Mission!
