Intermission 2
The ground rumbles as an ancient form begins to awaken from its slumber. Fissures burst open in the hard packed earth, steam and sulfur and gaseous death billowing out from them, shrouding the whole area in an unpiercable fog. Sharp cracks filled the air as rock and tree break from unbeleivable forces. Viscious lava bursting and pouring from a volcano, overwhelming and burning all in its path...
...all because some jackass finally re-read his old fanfiction. He cringed at certain chapters. Admittedly, he knew it was way back in the day when he wrote some of the entries, and he wouldn't dream of doing the same thing today, but still...so many missed typos, bad grammar and-look, he admits he probably shouldn't have done the crossover with the self-insertion fic.
He had been going through his college experimental phase.
It's a thing, don't question it!
Still, he had no intention of re-writing the previous chapters. They exist, they're a thing, so he'll run with them. And apologize profusely to the people who come to this part of the story that they had to suffer through those portions to get to this.
That said, ideas are in mind, and the story will be made tighter, with a definite end. A true antagonist will appear...or perhaps it's two? Heros shall rise, the self-insertion shall not appear again, and power unimaginable (and likely un-writable by the author) will be attempted to be written.
He grins, feeling the old sense of inspiration burbling in his mind once more, and starts to write a new chapter. He paused, and then decided to leave one last little teaser for those long suffering, waiting readers: a snippet from the next chapter.
Ryoga's face blanched as his bloodshot, wild eyes locked onto his target, prompting him to thrust an accusing finger at the man. "YOU! Because of you, I've seen hell!" Beside him, an equally enraged Shampoo drew her bonbori with lethal intent in her eyes.
"SHAMPOO! KILL!"
"That's the spirit, show no mercy!" Vegeta laughed as his two students took off, dust billowing from their forms, closing in on their target.
"Awww, come on, it wasn't that bad, was it?!"
See ya in the next chapter, ladies and gents!
