Chapter 18 - Birth of a God

Harsh wind blew across the beautiful landscape as Mizuna and the God of Destruction, Beerus stared each other down. Mizunas golden aura was glimmering around her body and her hair stood up high. Lightning danced about her curves. She had assumed her second Super Saiyan transformation. She felt that he was no one to take lightly but she still wanted to test him, as well as herself. Her power had increased by leaps and bounds in the past few years. She'd definitely be able to defeat that Buu creature by herself now. Without much trouble. She had been focusing on making her base strength higher, instead of only focusing on transformations only as they all had for years now. Ever since attaining SSJ4, her progress had been quick and smooth. It felt like she had no limits anymore.

Perhaps this Beerus would be just what she needed to keep improving. He was standing perfectly still across from her, his arms were behind his back and he had a confident smile on his face. She knew what the Kais were like. Most of them weren't anything special power wise, but this destruction god, he seemed ominous. "Well? Are we doing this or not?" Beerus asked. "Don't disappoint me, or I'll destroy your world." He added.

Mizuna was briefly taken aback by the threat, but didn't let it distract her. Wouldn't be the first time someone had threatened her world. She dashed in then, aiming a sweeping kick at Beerus' head. Beerus caught her leg in his head. His grip was iron, and then casually tossed her away. She caught herself in the grass and rushed at him again. A ki blast forming in her palm and then launched it his way and then teleported directly behind him. Hoping to catch him by surprise with a blow to the back. He reached his arm behind his back and caught her attack and swung her in front of him to take the full brunt of her energy blast and then released her. She was hurting a bit after that, but she made some distance to catch her breath. He was incredibly strong and he wasn't even trying. She was significantly stronger in this form then Gohan had been in his Mystic form against Buu, and yet he tossed her aside casually. No matter. She grunted in concentration as she focused her power. "I guess Super Saiyan 2 isn't enough for you. How about level 4?" She asked and started powering up, the planet shook with her transformation, when she was done Beerus seemed to nod in appreciation. "This is a surprise. I see you weren't entirely full of hot air after all. This is fat higher then I expected from a mortal."

"Is this as good as the god power you were looking for?"

Beerus only smiled. "Hardly, but just go ahead and try your best."

Mizuna grew annoyed at that. "What was that?" All the hard work she'd done to get this far and he wasn't impressed? She'd make Buuhan look like a chump at this level. Then she charged in at him again. When she was close, she disappeared from sight and multiple after images of herself appeared around him. He looked around, bored. Then she zoomed in at his left with a punch aimed at his ribs. He caught her blow and brought her closer to her. He had a grin on his face as he brought his hand up in a flicking motion that tapped her on the head and sent her skidding across the around painfully. She picked herself back up then and moved in, unleashing an incredibly fast flurry of punches and kicks that he danced around, just narrowly avoiding everything she did was the least amount of energy wasted. Then he vanished from her view and she found him standing just a short distance behind her.

She gathered an immense amount of energy in her hand as he turned to face him and released it all at once in a brilliant red beam. That detonated once it hit him and kicked up a tremendous amount of smoke. Once it cleared, it revealed Beerus standing still, and unharmed with a large crater around him. Mizuna moved to follow up with an attack but once she got close, her body suddenly shot backwards away from him, as if on it's own to avoid a counterattack. "What the?" She asked and looked down at her body. "My body seemed to move on it's own?"

She could hear Whis make a fascinated hmm noise off to the side but Beerus seemed only focused on the fight. "Well, you showed me your power. Impressive as it is, it's not enough to hurt me." Then he slowly moved towards her. "Allow me to show you an inkling of a destroyers real power." Then he was completely gone from view. He was standing behind her, his back against hers and from pure instinct she turned around to hit him, but hit only air, he smoothly avoided her attack and then kicked her in the jaw, the hit was devastating as it sent her out of control into the air and then he met up higher up, put a hand on her shoulder and sent her slamming down into the ground. The pain was excruciating and caused her to drop out of her SSJ4 form instantly as she hit the ground. She could taste blood in her mouth and knew she was done. She managed to get up on one elbow as he landed on the ground. "Not too bad, you're still alive."

Mizuna sighed and shook her head. "What now then?"

"Now? I haven't been satisfied yet. Now, you've felt the power of the god rattle your bones. You will find a way yourself to acquire it. I'll give you a short amount of time to train and I'll be expecting results. If not, I will destroy the Earth." She knew he wasn't joking then, he had dropped any pretense at being pleasant. She nodded anyway.

"You won't train me instead?" She asked, she knew it was pointless but she was curious.

"No. You won't be worry of the power or my time unless you manage it yourself." She nodded, having already came to that conclusion.

"Fair enough." Then she stood up, "How long do I have?"

"2 hours."

"That's it?!" She exclaimed. Suddenly worried. That was no time at all and he was asking a lot.

"I could just destroy you now and save us both the trouble." He said without a care.

"No, I'll figure it out."

"Good. I'll be waiting for you on Earth. Perhaps we'll try some of their delicacies." Then he walked away back to Whis who bade them farewell and they were off.

Mizuna was growing more worried at that. Bulma was having a party in an hour, and she didn't think anyone would take kindly to Beerus threatening then. She better get to training. The Time Chamber would be the best place to go for this. She'd get two months of training in.

"Mizuna." Kibitoshin said as he approached her and started to heal her. "I have no idea what you just got us into. I should've warned you about him."

She shrugged. "I thought he'd be more like the rest of you guys."

"That's not the case at all."

"Guess so. So, how do I learn to use God ki?" Mizuna asked him.

"I couldn't explain if I wanted to. I've always had it so I couldn't really teach attaining it is unheard of."

Her face dropped at that, but her spirits stayed high. "Can you explain what it is at least?"

Kibitoshin nodded and began. "Mortal Ki that you've always used, that's fueled from your own body. You generate it, and it's generally easy to use. Divine Ki comes from outside. It's the ki of the universe. Being like King Kai can't use it, but being such as Supreme Kai, or a God of Destruction can. Whis can as well, I believe. That's why they couldn't be sensed. Mortal Ki usually relates with emotion, as anger can boost your strength. Divine Ki is going to be completely different for you. Calm and mediation are key. It's far more potent, and incredibly dangerous."

"Dangerous? How?"

"Because it's all relative to the power you already have. I'm a relatively weak fighter, so I'm no threat. Someone like you and Beerus could threaten the entire universe if you're not careful."

Sweat beaded down her head at that. "Is that right? Don't worry. I'll be safe."

Mizuna stood up, fully healed and then focused on the Earth. "Thanks for everything, I'll see you later." Then she teleported to Dendes lookout where Dende and Mr. Popo were standing on the edge, and looking down at the Earth, they had worried looks on their face as they turned to face her. "Who just arrived on Earth? I can feel them. Their power is vast."

"A destroyer god and his aide. We had a run in about 10 minutes ago." Mizuna asked, not really in the mood to explain.

"What?" Dende asked, confused and fearful.

"Don't worry. I can handle it. I just need a little while in the chamber and I'll scare them off." She said as she quickly jogged away from them directly for the chamber, and ran in, shutting the door behind her. She looked around at all the empty space and sighed. She really didn't like this place, especially alone. But she didn't have much choice really. She knew there were a few different ways at attaining this power, but they didn't have the number of Saiyans required, so she'd take the slow way. She sat down in the middle of the ground and focused. Ki of the universe. Easier said then done. She stay in the time chamber for the entire two months trying to figure it out.

Once she had ran out of time to practice she left and joined the others at Bulmas party on her yacht. When she arrived, she found Gotenks and Gohan facing off with Beerus while the other fighters were either hurt or unconscious. Gohan and Gotenks were no match either, but they had all become very serious fighters the last few years. She was glad to see that at least. She placed herself right behind them and they turned to face her. "I'm glad you made it. We could really use some help." Gohan said with a pained smile.

"Who the hell is this guy? We can't even put a dent in him." Gotenks exclaimed.

"His name is Beerus, he's a God of Destruction. Who set him off?"

"Buu, of course. Wouldn't share his desserts."

"Figures. Well, I can handle him." Mizuna said confidently, but they only backed off a bit. They were being protective. A sweet gesture. Though she was also covered in bruises and smut too. She wasn't feeling confident at all about fighting him again. Beerus smiled at her as he noticed.

"I see you've finally shown up. Have you done what I asked?"

"Maybe. You'll be able to tell better than I can." Then she closed her eyes and steadied her internal energy. She drew on the energy from around her, from the Earth, and from space and stars. She noticed it was significantly easier to do out here as opposed to the time chamber. She felt a different sensation as a fiery aura surrounded her, but it was unstable and flickered, her eyes had turned golden and her muscles had slimmed down, and finally her hair turned a blazing red, but didn't spike up. She noticed a huge surge of strength that far surpassed even SSJ4, but it was fleeting and wouldn't last currently. She was too new at it still but she think she accomplished it. She could feel both Beerus and Whis now, even their relaxed power was staggering to behold. She took a fighting pose again and smiled at Beerus. "How's this?"

"I'm impressed. You actually managed to pull it off, but it's an unstable transformation. You're a total novice." He said with a sigh. "Still, after only experiencing it once and you've gotten this far. That's worthy of praise. Now come test yourself again me!"

Mizuna attempted to power up further and nearly felt the power slip away. She relaxed herself again and charged in. She threw a punch directly at him and he caught it again, but she could feel the difference. His hand moved back a bit and he smiled. The ocean below them was a nightmare of waves from that single hit. "That's more like it." He murmured, and then he kicked her in the head, sending her spiraling down into the sea.

SSJG will look roughly the same as canon, just with golden eyes because I think it looks better. There is no Super Saiyan Blue in my story as having two god forms always felt like clutter to me. I also explained Divine Ki better because the canon version is bad.

Not going to try power levels with the god stuff just yet. Not sure how to calculate it with my system.
