Running through the hallway was Kuzuku, Zugo, Piccolo, Riley, and 21. They were starting to wonder how large is this place since their surroundings haven't changed in a while and there was no signs of it ending. Piccolo was starting to get frustrated and was about to oblige to Kuzuku's idea of blowing this whole place up. That was until a light was visible in front of them. Everyone rushed through it, hoping that it would take them to the room where the boss lies. When they entered, all you could see was a lit up room with various pillars that contain torches on them. The ground had purplish lining that created a series of incantation, circling the room. It all lead up to some sort of alter that was surrounded by various guards. On top of the alter was a giant purple crystal that refracted light in all sorts of angles and next to it was another cloak man.
"Stop! What do you think you are doing?! If you release that monster then you are not only threatening the lives of this planet but possibly the entire universe!" Piccolo warned. The cloaked man turned from hearing the namekian's command. He held the Etterix, a pitch black crustal in his hand while his face was barely visible. His underlings formed a barricade in front of him, expecting their intruders to pounce on their leader.
"I see that you've got passed my most elite pawns in this game." he said. Kuzuku stepped forward with a serious expression.
"What is your objective? It sounds like you know the risks of reviving Aereos, so why? Why do you want to endanger everyone?" Kuzuku questioned.
"Foolish boy, how ignorant can you be to not notice? I am merely trying to return the universe to its former state. A state where evolution is born from the chaos that is caused. The God of Destruction and the Supreme Kai have done a lazy job at guiding mortals to greatness so I am merely speeding up the process." The man said.
"So does that include the people who merely want to live happy lives?! What if they don't desire this evolution you speak of. It sounds like all you want to do is play god and forcefully enact your own judgement upon people by picking out the weak and favoring those who are strong. In the end all that would lead is disorder and chaos where senseless deaths will emerge!" Kuzuku shouted. The mysterious man chuckled at his speech.
"Those words are expected of simple minded people. If you wish to be strong, there must be a driving force that will force you there. Something that threatens your very life and pushes you beyond those limits. Isn't that how you Saiyans achieve such high level of strength? Don't think I don't know about your surviving warrior race. I heard there were some that were still out in the cosmos and I thought to myself, 'Why not try and recruit one of them to be my right hand man? A Saiyan's strength could be a great asset to my cause.'". The Etterix in his hand began to grow brighter, enveloping the room in its dark energy. The large crystal seemed to resonate with the sudden reaction as it shines as well.
"About time the seal is broken. Now witness the rebirth of our dark god." The man rejoiced, turning around and praising with glory. His followers began to chant and praise the awakening. Kuzuku had enough and charged at the man, trying to prevent the ritual from happening. The faithful soldiers intercepted his path but were blown away by Piccolo's demon explosive wave.
"Go! Your path is cleared now!" He yelled. Kuzuku flew at the man who turned around to block his punch with a force field. The barrier was quite strong considering Kuzuku had powered up considerably from obtaining God Ki. The electricity generated from Kuzuku's fist and the force field raged around the room along with the light emitted from the breaking of the seal. The barrier burst, resulting in a small explosion that sent Kuzuku backwards while the man took damage to the face. His hood was blown off, now revealing his true identity. The Saiyan looked up to see his adversary's face, hoping to burn the memory of a potential someone he may loathe. His hopes were drained as he saw his appearance in full front. It was someone that he'd already come to hate with all of his heart. Someone who if he ever saw again that he'd kill without a second thought. This intense feeling of dislike for someone was stronger than that of Frieza's and Goku's hate for each other. His scarred right eye, the evil smug, gray spiked up hair (Think of GT Vegeta) that had winged-like fringes, and pale skin was all too familiar to him. Behind him was Zugo who was standing there, just as shocked as he was.
"I can't fucking believe it..." Kuzuku muttered. His rage was rising by the minute. Kuzuku instantly turned Super Saiyan, rushing at the man with murderous intent. Zugo followed suit, transforming into stage 1 and aiding Kuzuku in destroying their common nemesis. Both Kuzuku's and Zugo's fist collided with his barrier, generating tens of times the amount of force before. The barrier broke as their fist overwhelmed his defense easily, colliding into the man's chest and slamming him into the ground, cracking the room all over. The man looked at their eyes, that were filled with rage. He started to become amused by this.
"I see, so you have met me before. I may recall the Astackian who joined you Ack* but you, Saiyan, may be someone who fell pray to a tragic past." He coughed but laughed.
"How ironic that you two share the same common enemy. Tell me Saiyan, how do you come to know me?" He grinned evilly.
"You took away the one person who was dear to me seven years ago! A kind and gentle lady who had lavender hair that matched with her skin and was wearing a nun outfit! Her name was Nana you twisted bastard!" Kuzuku snarled. The man began to laugh manically at hearing the answer to his question.
"HAHAHAHA! I can't believe that all these years that you, one of the rumored Saiyans we were looking for would come back for revenge after we came to this planet and ravaged it to the very ground! Do you want to know the reason why we want to come to this planet?! Your parents were the reason why!" his sadistic smile gave both warriors the chill but Kuzuku couldn't help but ask.
"You know my parents?" Kuzuku asked with shock
"Oh yes I did. I came up to them one day and offered to enlist you and your sister into my ranks. Of course they were skeptical at first so I gave them a few days. That was until I found that they were trying to send you two away. Your sister escaped from me but they weren't able to send you off in time. I fought them both and impaled them, killing them in the process but before I could get to you, they launched you off in a highly advance Saiyan pod. You don't know how many years it took searching the galaxy for you. When we arrived on Codia, I became fed up with the constant asking maneuver, so I purged this village from top to bottom." The man laughed
"You know what sickened me the most? That nun who so called protected you was the type of person I despised the most. Being ludicrously difficult and stubborn on giving you to us. Even when I threatened her with death she'd refused. Her smile at the end was one that got to me the most. What a sad and sickening smile, one that was for those who are weak. In all honestly she deserved her death." He remarked. Kuzuku gritted his teeth and clutched his fist.
"Do you want me to tell you-" he was cut off by Kuzuku's yell.
"SHUT UPPPPPPPP!" Kuzuku raised his fist and struck his head, creating a large boom to echo throughout the planet. The ground they were on shattered, taking the two of them with him as Zugo jumped back. Everyone covered their eyes from the debris being flown. The dust cleared while the group was recovering from the devastating punch.
"What happened? Why did you two suddenly attack out of no where?" Riley asked. Zugo didn't speak right away as hate was still triumphing over the rest of his emotions. He calmed down a bit but spoke with frustration.
"That bastard...he is the one that killed my father." Zugo answered. Everyone was shocked at his claim.
"So he was the one that did it..." Riley whispered.
"Okay but know why did Kuzuku attacked to? It doesn't make sense on why would he punch him that hard when he was already disabled. " Riley continued to press.
"According to what that man said, he was also the one who killed someone dear to Kuzuku. Her name was Nana. Also to add insult to injury he killed your parents as well but what set Kuzuku off was the fact he mocked Nana in front of him." Zugo said. 21 turned to look at the dust, hoping to see Kuzuku's body language. She knew he was most likely mad but she felt the need to try and calm him down. In the mitts of her thoughts came Gohan and Hudo limping towards them. Zugo turned around and greeted them.
"You guys are okay! Too bad you couldn't arrive here sooner." Zugo said
"Sorry but carrying Hudo who could barely walk delayed us from getting here. He put up a tough fight. As for me those two guys from earlier seemed to have some unique abilities but wasn't enough to beat me." Gohan informed. The dust cleared, revealing Kuzuku and the former masked man on the ground. Kuzuku's fist was still implanted in the same area what used to be the head was. Smoke covered the mans face, hiding the potential gruesome sight. Kuzuku was trying to control his breathing, almost calming himself down until he heard a voice.
"I must admit for someone who is this powerful, I regret not taking you when I had the chance." The man said. Kuzuku's eyes shrink'd in fear, disbelieving that he was still alive.
"What in the world! He is still alive!" Piccolo exclaimed, shocking the group. Kuzuku began to have a tint of fear. The potential that this guy may be a even greater threat than he thought, despite the training with Whis.
"You know, instead of focusing on me you should of disrupted the ritual when you had the chance. You think that the light show stopped because you mistakenly thought you killed me? I am nothing more but a part of Aereos's being. A mere fraction of his power that he leaked out before his demised. Now since his revival is complete, I shall return to my origins." His face revealed to be nothing but a dark void of purple and black energy, revealing only his eyes and mouth. Kuzuku's fist merely fazed through him like he wasn't there. The Saiyan was at disbelief when he saw the mans body disappear into dark energy and flying over the where the crystal was. A giant eruption of energy sprung out, blasting Kuzuku to his friends only to be caught by Piccolo. 21 created a barrier to protect themselves from the impending wave of energy. The force generated, shook the millions of galaxies from the distance. On Earth stood Goku who was plowing a field but was interrupted by the sudden serge of energy.
"Whoa that power is actually frightening. I sure hope they are okay because this might pose a challenge." Goku awed. Back on Codia, the villagers were freaking out over the sudden earthquake that shook the whole planet. Bit by bit the temple was being destroyed until the energy finally dissipated. 21 let her barrier down and everyone took a look at their surroundings. The whole area was leveled as well as the majority of the forest. They stood in a large crater that was created by the energy burst.
"Is he revived? I can't sense his Ki." Gohan asked.
"Yeah me neither." 21 said. The two noticed Kuzuku was tensed up.
"Kuzuku are you okay? You seem agitated." 21 concerned. Kuzuku looked at her for a moment but was still in a worried state.
"Yes I am fine but that bastard was merely a part of Aereos. He is defiantly fully revived, I can sense his power right now." Kuzuku answered
"Wait that must mean he has god ki right?" Gohan said. The smoke cleared almost completely but was enough to reveal a figure floating above the crater. His harden, jet black devil wings with a dark purple membrane was the first thing notable. His arms and legs were also look like they were wearing armor that was black with a purple on his elbows and knees. The upper body was mostly black except for his abdominal area that had a pattern to it. On his squared like face had a small spike sticking out of his chin with two long spikes that trailed to his back on his head. His pupils were black and purple that went along with his darken sclera. His hands also seemed to have metallic knuckles that were noticeable and his feet were legs that resemble that of a dragon. All in all he had a demonic look to him in every aspect. He flared some of his energy, testing out his current state of power. Everyone froze at the amount of pressure he produced from merely powering up. A gale of wind startled the gang and watched him descend onto the ground. He looked at his arms clutching them and began to shadow box at unreal speeds of almost an endless amount of punches and kicks made way. He stopped on one of his punches and focused for a moment. He opened his hand to drop a form of darkness into the ground. A pool of void spread beneath him and out came two warriors. One was big and chubby with a cape and green and bronze battle armor. His head was balled with pitch black skin. The other was of a female with similar black skin. She had the curves of a perfect women and wore a purple battle dress and black heels. Her hair was long and wavy. Both of their eyes were similar to that of Aereos. They knelled down next to their majesty.
"I am extremely grateful to your revival, Lord Aereos-Sama" The woman said.
"Inzuna, I see that you've been in slumber for all these years and still look as beautiful as ever." Aereos replied.
"What will you have us do master? Do you want us to take care of those insects over there." The chubby one asked. Aereos looked over to the group, specifically Kuzuku.
"Ibunozo, you may take care of the Saiyan girl on the right and Inzuna will take care of the Majin over there. I will deal with the rest since I want to amuse myself first." Aereos commanded. In a mere instant Inzuna and Ibunozo appeared in front of their targets before anyone could realize. Kuzuku was about the only one who reacted but was interrupted by the sudden kick in the stomach by Aereos, sending him crashing into the rocky wall. 21 and Riley were swept away by the enemies in two different directions through being struck across the face, launching them through the forest. Everyone was shocked at the unreal speed feat and took on a defensive stance and were ready to fight. Aereos was now surrounded by five opponents but smirked anyways. Piccolo was the first one to dare take a crack at the unholy being before them. He transformed instantly into his Chaos Namekian state and launched a chop at his neck. Aereos effortless vanished before it could connect, leaving the Namekian's punch in the air. He appeared next to his arm and placed his hand over his stomach, generating a dark purple orb of ki. He smirked darkly as he made it larger, eventually launching the Namek into the sky before crashing in the middle of the woods. It exploded upon impact, leaving a desolated area and a wounded Namek. Zugo and Hugo charged in frustration, turning into their Stage 1 states. They unleashed a flurry of punches from both sides but were effortlessly being blocked one by one. Aereos was chuckling at their feeble attempt to damage him. The dark god caught Zugo's fist and pulled him close to him, punching him right in the face. Hudo attempted to kick him in the neck, in which it was a successful hit until he realized it had no effect on him what so ever. Hudo shook in fear as he grabbed his leg and lifted it off. Aereos laughed sadistically and slammed Hudo into the ground by hoisting him over his head. Zugo recovered his footing and dashed at the deity but was soon met with the body of his best friend being thrown at his stomach. The two were rocketed into the wall with back breaking force. Rubble fell over their heads as they looked up dazed, only to notice a Ki blast was heading their way. Hudo used his ground manipulation while Zugo used his ice manipulation to form a shield. The two were concentrating hard as the blast was pressing against their defenses. They inevitably give way by having their combined shield shattered, allowing the blast to overwhelm them completely before exploding, decimating the area behind them. Gohan rushed at him next with his own series of attacks. This time he actually had to block and dodge a few of them.
"This one is stronger than I thought." Aereos praised. He deflected one of his punches, resulting in the end of his barrage of attacks. Aereos then backhands Gohan in the face, stunning him a bit before kicking him firm in the stomach. Gohan gasped out blood before getting a barrage of punches up and down his abdominal and chest. Aereos kicked Gohan away, sending him flying towards the rocky landscaped wall. He stopped him self with one hand and flipped himself back into position. Aereos was awed by his endurance until he felt a sharp kick on his face that sent him flying for a moment but stopped himself in mid air. He looked up at the source of the blow, only to see a long blond hair Saiyan with raging electricity around his golden aura. He was pretty bruised up and his Gi gained holes in it. Both Gohan and Kuzuku jumped Aereos at the same time, hurling nothing but unyielding punches and kicks at the god. Aereos was struggling for a bit but relished the challenge. He kneed Gohan in the stomach and parried Kuzuku's kick. He then round-housed kick Kuzuku into Gohan, rocketing then both. Kuzuku recovered and charged at him once more but this time all alone. He fainted a punch to the face and went for the gut instead. His fist seemingly landed in the god abdominal area, causing him to smirk a bit till Aereos began to laugh.
"Oh my you were so close but too bad you lack the speed.". The deity retracted Kuzuku's fist, revealing that he caught it before it connected. He let go quickly only to gut punch Kuzuku flinty. The Saiyan gasped for air and was immediately lifted by the chest and rammed straight into the ground, creating a crack that spread halfway through the planet. He lifted the tailed boy once more and dropped him for a moment, kicking him as he free fall'd down. Kuzuku was sent flying again, this time keeping himself together. Once he came to a full stop and tried to straighten himself but struggled as his body shook in pain.
"Gahhk* This guy's power is unreal!" Kuzuku uttered. Everyone was slowly getting up even Piccolo who flew back into the fight. Zugo powered up into Stage 2 while everyone else began to raise their Ki to the maximum. Aereos, now surrounded by six fully powered fighters, was only amused by their heroic antics.
"You guys sure amuse me to a degree. After being sealed away for so long I haven't had a good fight in eons." Aereos commented.
"Well glad we could accommodate you. Now take that with you when we send you straight to hell." Zugo retorted.
"Oh don't be like that little Astackian. I am doing you and that Saiyan a favor. By sending you to the afterlife to be reunited with your deceased family that I killed" Aereos smiled darkly. Everyone charged at him and his dark aura once more. A huge eruption of dark energy enveloped the designated vicinity in dark menacing light that only showed the battle will rage on for a while.
Meanwhile with 21
21 was weary from the hit she had received. She got up from the pile of trees that tumbled over her and walked through the forest. Eventually she found an opening and walked out of it, seeing a safari zone with various large pillars of rocks. She kept one walking until a random Ki blast stopped the majin in her tracks. She looked up to see the female attendant that Aereos had summoned.
"About time you arrived. I was getting bored from waiting." Inzuna said. 21 got ready to fight, knowing that she won't simply let her pass by. Inzuna then raised both of her hands, creating various dark orbs. She commanded the mysterious orbs to rain down on the majin by extending her hand out. 21 avoid all the blasts but couldn't help that each one of them had an oddly destructive effect when made impact with the ground. Each one left a moderate size creator in the ground. She then wasted no time and created a barrier, hoping to reflect the barrage of blasts. But almost instantly when the orbs made contact with her shield, it disappeared into nothing, allowing the orbs to collide into 21. She screamed out in agony as it left a devastating effect. When it dissipated, she knelt down to try and recover from the pain. Inzuna floated down, smiling at her accomplishment.
"I see that you got a taste of my dimensional orbs." she said
"Dimensional orbs?" 21 asked through the pain.
"Yes, you see I have the power to manipulate dimensions and space. I can covert the energy of the space in this universe and use it in my attacks. Its a very destructive ability that takes up an enormous amount of energy to do. I am surprised you lived through such an attack. Normally it would of instantly vaporized its targets." Inzuna explained. More orbs generated around her.
"But I wonder how long will you last before fainting.". More dimensional orbs came 21's way. She dodged each one of them, countering some with her own energy. 21 then rushed passed the vaporizing balls of energy and elbowed her across the face. 21 then followed up with a kick that hurled her through several rocks. 21 proceeded to fire several large Ki blast at the recovering adversary but her energy blasts were somehow vanished from thin air. The majin android was shocked until a dark portal opened behind her. She turned around, realizing what was happening.
"Oh no! If she can manipulate dimensions and space then she can obviously create portals!" 21 panicked. Her very own blast exploded on her back. She cried out as the waves she made were intended to finish the fight. 21 rolled across the ground, covered in bruises and was leaking blood from her right shoulder. She looked up to see more orbs coming at her at life threatening speeds. She got up and narrowly dodged them again but failed to avoid them all as one of them connected in her stomach. This time it expanded into a dark bubble that contained a painful sensation that was unbearable. The concentrated dimensional energy raged as it ravaged its target.
"AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" 21 screeched at the feeling of having her insides and outsides being crushed from the immense pressure. The orb shrunk and disappeared, allowing her to collapse onto the floor. Inzuna walked over to the majin and stood over her womanly.
"Oh my, you are a strong one I'll give you that. After all those attacks you still aren't vaporized into nothing." Inzuna complimented. She then generated another ball into her hand.
"But now I guess this is where it ends. You've been a entertaining little play thing.". Before she could fire, 21 swept the evil woman off her feet. Inzuna gasped in surprised and was punched across her beautiful face. She stumbled back a bit, rubbing her check from the clever punch. She found that blood was trailing from her cheek. She growled that her face was damaged.
"You insolent bitch!" she raged. Inzuna charged at 21 with murderous intent but was effortlessly maneuvered around. Her eyes widened in shock at her attack being dodged so effortlessly.
"You've lost control and left yourself vulnerable. If you were to keep yourself composed and continued on with your strategy then you would of lived." 21 said from behind extending her hand onto her back.
"No wait please..." Inzuna begged. 21 ignored her plea and emitted her blast anyway, engulfing her in it.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Inzuna yelled before getting turned into dust from the blast exploding. 21 waited for the smoke to clear to reveal that nothing was left from her opponent.
"You can't call me a bitch if you complain about a little scratch on the cheek." 21 uttered. She felt her legs give up as she fell to the ground. She was panting heavily since her regenerative abilities were overworked. She looked up to see flashes of light and heard loud booms. She could only assume that the others were engaging in a intense battle. She folded her fingers together in a prayer.
"Kuzuku please be safe for me." she whispered.
Some time after this
Riley found herself waking up on a beach. Behind her were raging waves that crashed beneath the large rocks.
She clutched her head in pain only to hear a faint sound coming at her. She instinctively dodge an explosion that was aimed at her. She looked at the wasted ground where she used to stood in but looked up way too late to see the punch that was aimed at her. She was able to block her face, taking the full force of the punch that essentially sent her into a side of a cliff. The force of the punch blew up the rock formation completely, burying the poor girl in rubble. Ibunozo smirked for a moment until he saw a yellow light seep through the pile of rocks. It then flared into a golden energy, revealing the former long-spiky haired girl. Her hair spiked up completely in all direction, only leaving a bang over her green emerald eyes glared at the dark god subordinate.
"I see that you Saiyans have a little trick up their sleeve but don't think that will be enough." Ibunozo said. Riley vanished and reappeared next to the man, aiming a punch at his rib cage. The hurling fist embedded itself firmly in his side, causing him grit his teeth in pain. She then reverse roundhouse kick him across the face, leading an opening for a array of punches in his stomach before elbowing him hard. Ibunozo keeled over in pain at the force of the attack. The Saiyan girl smirked, launching an uppercut to finish the job until the giant disappeared from her sight. She was taken back a bit but tracked him down from sensing his Ki. She turned around, ready to counter his next move but was sent sliding across the ground from yet another strike. She clutched her face, pondering on how was he so big but yet so fast. She then notice something below his feet. Electricity or some sort of energy allowing him to levitate off the ground.
"What in the hell..." She uttered but was still heard.
"I see you've taken notice of my ability girl. I can manipulate Kinetic Energy to where I can either allow myself to accelerate beyond my normal speeds and launch punches at an incredible rate and force. I can even make the destructive force of this pebble exponentially greater." Ibunozo stated, flicking the pebble at an absurd speed. The pebble went through the side of Riley's stomach, causing her the cry out in pain. Ibunozo laughed at that sound and fired a few more. Riley started to move, avoiding the deathly enhanced rocks that crashed into the ground, creating large craters. She thought for a moment and rushed straight into the kinetic user. She tried her hardest to avoid a direct hit, obtaining scratches and scrapes along her body. Ibunozo took the opportunity to take advantage of her desperate charge and channel kinetic energy into his fist, enhancing its destructive force to the maximum. He hurled the punch into Riley face, connecting and generating a gale of wind that nearly leveled the surrounding area. He grinned evilly, assuming that he had killed the girl until he felt movement. Riley motioned her face, revealing that she was still alive and grinned slyly as blood trickled down to her chin. Inbunozo was shocked to see her still alive until a hole was blown through his stomach.
"GRAGHHHHHH!" He cried out in agony. He took a few steps back, clutching his stomach for a moment. Riley then charged up two giant orange energy balls in her hand, extending her arms outwards and firing with all her might. Ibunozo countered with his own, trying to push back the attack. The Saiyan girl was struggling to keep up the pace. The damage she'd sustained from that desperate attack was starting to take it's toll. With all her might she made one last push in defeating the enemy in front of her.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!". Ibunozo's blast was overthrown, allowing her energy wave to consume its target.
"GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Ibunozo shrieked from getting his body reduced to nothing. The wave extended far enough to create a path in the sea, eventually exploding in the middle of the sea. As the water began to reform again, Riley fell to the ground, deforming from over exertion of energy.
She cough up blood and applied pressure onto the wound in her stomach. She heard sound of people nearby, knowing that the village was probably near here. She hoisted herself up off the ground and limped through the forest in order to get some help. She could hear the sounds of battle, aware that her brother and the others are still fighting. She could only hope that things were going well in their favor but she couldn't get so hopeful. She couldn't sense god Ki but she knew the pressure she felt was beyond comprehension. All she could do now was find help and hopefully recover fast enough to help out. Riley's prayers were eventually answered as she entered the village. She saw everyone standing around, looking at the light show from the distance as loud galaxy shaking booms could be heard.
"You there! You are one of Kuzuku's companions!" Kashu called out, rushing over to the girl as fast as he could. He body guards were urging him to not push himself too hard.
"What happened? Did you guys succeed in preventing the revival." Kashu asked. Riley gave him a regretful look as she tried to avoid eye contact.
"No...we couldn't prevent his revival. My brother is now fighting him along with his friends. I got separated by one of his minions but I took care of him..." Riley answered but nearly fell over. She was losing the adrenaline that was keeping her conscious this whole time.
"Whoa now, don't go passing out on me yet. If what you say is true then that means we are in great danger." Kashu replied, helping the girl stand on her feet. She was panting heavily and Kashu couldn't ignore the other thing she had said. The fact that she was non other than Kuzuku's sister was enough reason to get her help. He then turned to his guards and gave them a commanding look.
"Go get the best medical aids we have in the village. We need to treat her injuries, she seems to be in critical condition." Kashu ordered. His body guards wasted no time and move along. Kashu took notice that blood was leaking from her lower abdominal area. He cringed at the sight and hoped help would come soon. Then out of the woods came another familiar face. It was 21 who was damaged but most of her serious injuries were healed already. She ran over to Riley and Kashu, relived that they were okay.
"Riley, I'm so glad your alive." She hugged. She pulled back and noticed the amount of blood she lost.
"My word you've lost a lot of blood!" 21 exclaimed. Riley looked at her dreary and smiled.
"Well if I look like this now after fighting fatty then I can't imagine how the other would look when they beat that Aereos guy." Riley joked. 21 began healing her wounds but couldn't get most of them since her energy was low. She only hoped that she can prolong the process enough to get real help. Kashu looked at the majin girl with curiosity. He wondered how such a lavish and kind heart-ed girl end up in Kuzuku's group. She kind of resembles someone he knew and guessed.
"Excuse me miss. How did you come across my little rascal that's all grown up." Kashu asked, obviously referring to Kuzuku. 21 looked at him and blinked for a moment. She blushed a bit, not knowing how to properly answer that question. Kashu smiled a bit, confirming his suspicions from earlier.
"I see, so he finally found someone he wants to protect." Kashu muttered as he looked towards the direction of the battle. He was now even more proud that he has grown this much from that day and began to think.
"Kuzuku, you've grown up haven't you. Ever since that day no one wanted you to live. No one depended on you or ever wanted you to help them. You've always been alone from the very beginning. The people of this planet scorned you, despised you to their deepest core, before you were even conscious about the world. Even when you've returned I can still feel the hate they have for you, simply because of your race. It was evident that things may never change. But as of right now, maybe I have forsaken that possibility. The possibility of change happening and that proof is right now. You can feel it can you? The people are watching your battle from afar, radiating with hope that you and your friends are victories. Placing all of their hopes upon your shoulders, relying on you as support. Even your friends back on your new home must be hoping for your return. So all you need now is to reciprocate those feelings and prove that you are worth putting your hopes in because as of now...you aren't the cursed Saiyan that this village damned in the past. You are this villages light of hope in the darkness and it's hero."
A/N: Phew this chapter is the longest one to date. I got inspiration in the speech from BNHA and Naruto but twisted it to fit this scene. I aimed to add more special abilities in this story such as Dimensional Manipulation, Kinetic Manipulation and Vibration Manipulation. I may be going over the top but I had lots of fun writing this chapter to be honest. It got to the point where I think I lost track of time and slept at four o clock in the morning lol. I guess the main reason behind this was because I wanted to give 21 and Riley some spotlight by having them defeat two powerful minions on their own. Of course you could say the most shafted character in this chapter was Piccolo since I had him pretty much bodied by the main boss but I don't feel too bad since I had the other get decimated in a similar manner. I was also kind of iffy from the emotion displayed at the beginning of the chapter. I'm not too sure if it was executed perfectly but I'll leave that to your opinion. I also had to say that this is by far the best battle chapter that I've written, especially with some cool battle music I found. Well that's enough rambling and thanks for reading.
