The war in Conton City raged on as Time Patrollers fought an endless battle against the Planet Trade Organization's massive armada, the downtown district was engulfed in flames as numerous battles began taking it's toll on the environment. Many Patrollers were forced to flee due to exhaustion while foot soldiers continued advancing past Conton forces, but few fighters remained to battle until their inevitable end.
"How ya holdin' up Choi?" Tama asked a fellow patroller who was also cornered somewhere in the Business District.
"I've certainly been better" Majin Choi replied panting as a result from numerous battles, the duo quickly stood back to back against each other as more foot soldiers surrounded them blocking anyway of escape.
"Do you think we'll survive this?" Choi asked staring down the endless sea of PTO forces that continued to pour down on Conton CIty as warships eerily flew past the city's horizon down towards the Earth.
"Well I ain't gonna lie to ya...it ain't lookin' good" Tama replied as a drop of sweat slowly slid down the side of face before splashing down to the ground. At the exact moment the bead of sweat dropped Tama and Choi started their offensive strike. "Tama! Go Super!" Choi shouted fending off soldiers buy turning them into candy and a series of Ki wave attacks.
"Alright then" Tama quickly responded as he immediately turned Super Saiyan causing his shaved and beard to turn golden as the power released from his transformation blew weaker soldier away from his position. Tama began making short work of foot soldier near him knocking them out with single blows and then proceed to rid Choi of his excess opponent with a powerful Ki blast attack leaving the Majin patroller to defeat those closest to him. In the midst of battle Tama searched for his young pupil concentrating on a small trail of Ki had linger from Kaioken attack.
"Shit! Rind the hell happened to you!" Tama thought to himself locating his energy that was quickly fading.
"Choi! I gotta go rescue RInd! Do you mind?" Tama asked the Majin patroller as they found a small break between waves of soldiers.
"Go on ahead Tama! I spotted Reso, I'mma join with him!" Choi responded taking a few seconds to catch his breath "Stay safe brotha!" Choi said before he flew off towards the other Time Patroller.
Gold Series: Prophecy
Tama raced off towards Rind noting the damaged across Conton CIty before spotting the young Saiyan near death's door along with the corpse of Trunks. "...Trunks? JUST WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED HERE?" Tama said racing down towards the two warriors, he immediately checked Trunks for any signs of life but to no avail noting the hole in Leader's chest. "Ain't no Senzu gonna fix that" Tama said before radio-ing in Trunks' death to the Elites.
"This is Tama, Rank A, ... Commander Trunks has fallen. I repeat Commander Trunks has fallen" Tama reported with a few seconds of silence before a response was heard.
"Understood Tama...give your coordinates" the elite patroller asked.
"Uhh... Section D... 244 W" Tama responded before the emergency signal interrupted Time Patrollers' frequency signal.
"All available Time Patrollers report to the Earth...an invading force, the size of which has never been seen, is heading directing towards Central City. All Patrollers on missions will be directly transported to emergency station on the Earth, those in Conton City will have to fly directly towards Earth space. I repeat all available Time Patrollers report to the Earth." the message continued to play non-stop as Patrollers readied themselves for a grim scenario, Earth may be conquered.
"Damn it!" Tama yelled in frustration as he slowly fed Rind a senzu bean. The younger Saiyan slowly chewed before quickly sitting up and reawakening to the chaos of Conton City. Rind looked around slowly processing the state of his reality at that moment with Tama seemingly yelling at him in which the sound of his voice was distorted before Rind spotted Trunks dead on the ground. A single tear flew from Rind's eye as he softly mourned the death of Time Patrol's leader, a death in his mind in which Rind felt responsible for, before Tama smacked the side of his with great force.
"WAKE THE HELL UP RIND!" Tama yelled smacking the shocked teenager into awareness.
"The girl...SHE'S IN THIS BUILDING!" Rind said before flying into building at blinding speeds.
"Oh what now?" Tama complained as he looked back at Trunks covering his body with his own jacket. "We'll come back for you sir!" Tama said before chasing after Rind.
The Golden Eyed assassin stared down a young Kaioshin-like boy in a white room that was seemingly used to imprison him.
"Come with Shiru, Father awaits us" the assassin said as she glared down rare being.
"You know nothing... there won't be anything left!" Shiru cried hysterically.
"Are you speaking of the Planet Trade Army? They are nothing but small fries compared to father. Shiru if you join us you will be sa-" the Assassin continued before Shiru interrupted with frightening yell.
"THE BEAST IS NIGH! AND THERE WILL BE NOTHING LEFT! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND THERE WILL BE NOTHING LEFT!" Shiru continued wailing as he unveiled a sharp object in his hand and placed it towards his neck. "Your plans were for nothing...and I apologize for that. But I'll ask you one request...leave while you can. Take anyone you can and leave before the Beast arrives" Shiru said before ending his life with the object.
"Pathetic" the assassin said before leaving "Father...our target off'd himself" she said looking upwards before hearing a distorted voice in response "Understood" she replied to the voice before being sent crashing through walls by an enraged Rind.
"What the hell? He caught me off guard?!" The Assassin said as she blocked Rind's attacks which became faster with each strike. "Damn it, gotta counter" the Assassin said to herself as Rind's furious assault continued grew stronger with each attack, his eyes flashed between black and green as sparks charged around the young Saiyan before his hair turned golden.
"Whoa! Rind turned Super Saiyan!" Tama cheered in excitement "turns out all he needed was a ass-kicking, go figure" he continued following the fight throughout Conton's ruins. "That girl is impressive though, the only reason Rind has the upper hand was due to his surprise attack and his convient timing in his power up" Tama commented.
Rind's power continued to increase as the Assassin kept his offense at bay but blocking each strike became an increasing challenge for his opponent. Rind's pupils disappeared as his power increased but rise in power began to make the young Saiyan become unstable as he fought without focus and relied solely on instinct.
"That technique doesn't seem to work right now" the Assassin thought to herself before finding an opening against the enraged Super Saiyan kicking him hard in the right-side of his rib cage. The blinded fury disappeared from Rind's eyes as his pupil became visible, a signal of his self awareness returning, as he grabbed his ribs out of pain.
"Damn...it...I have to...keep going!" Rind panted as he struggled to breathe.
"Just give up. I was not ordered to take your life, there's no need to fight anymore" the Assassin ordered glaring at Rind before turning her attention on to Tama. "Tell him to fall back."
"Sorry girly but he's never listened to me before, why would he start now?" Tama replied.
"Thanks Tama...I'm going to finish this!" Rind declared while powering up.
"So be it" the Assassin answered readying herself as Ki swirled around her along with a gold aura that began oozing out her body.
"That might be an issue" Tama thought to himself witnessing the focus in the Assassin's eyes. Rind charged into battle attacking furiously but to same result as before, the Golden Eyed fighter quickly gained the upper hand effortlessly dodging each attack before blocking a punch with a elbow/knee combo to Rind's left arm breaking it. Rind yelled in agony but continued to fight the uphill battle.
"Just give up" the Assassin warned as she kicked him in the injured ribs again knocking the Super Saiyan back into his normal state. "That's enough Rind! My turn" Tama said jumping into the fray with a series of large hay-maker strikes. The Assassin dodged each attempt before striking Tama in his sternum with her elbow. Arms quickly wrapped around the Assassin's body catching her off guard as a state of panic was seen on her face.
"Awww... don't like hugs?" Tama taunted as he squeezed his arms into her body "Well you're gonna hate the next part even more!" he continued taunting before diving down full speed towards the ruins of Conton City.
"TAMA!" Rind yelled witnessing this last resort type attack.
"IT's A DAMN SHAME GIRLY! YOU'RE A REALLY TALENT FIGHTER...AND PRETTY CUTE IF I DON'T YOU MIND ME SAYIN'!" Tama taunted as he and Assassin barreled down towards the ground at sound-breaking speeds. Tama quickly released the Assassin at the possible second before the impact sending her crashing down hard into the Conton's ground while Tama rolled on to the ground as Rind followed.
"Have some faith in won't ya!" Tama scolded Rind who chuckled out of relief seeing his master safe.
"Is she dead?" RInd asked looking at crash site.
"God no, it'll take more than that!" Tama said as the Assassin bursted out of the rubble absolutely livid.
"Now you'll die! BOTH OF YOU ARE DEAD!" The Assassin raged rushing at the pair of Saiyans as they both powered up in response.
"Like hell!" Tama yelled throwing a punch at the Assassin, he was certain it was going to connect but his vision suddenly became distorted as she glared directly into his eyes. The Assassin unleashed a near lethal barrage of palm strikes onto Tama's body as fell to his back while she readied her final strike before Rind intercepted.
"You're quite the glutton for punishment" the Assassin snarked staring Rind down.
"You talk too much" Rind replied spitting out blood to the side but never breaking eye contact. The two warriors shared a awkward chuckle both trying to anticipate the other's next move. Unbeknownst to them during the fighting the sky had become blood red with black clouds swirling above Conton City.
"What the hell is going on?" Tama asked slowly getting back to his feet looking at the sky as he sensed a strange but powerful energy. The few Time Patrollers that remained in Conton City also reacted nervously while fighting off remaining PTO forces who seemed oblivious to eerie situation that was brewing around them.
The Assassin readied herself but suddenly dropped her guard as she also became aware of the ominous skies above, she looked around, almost seeming innocent, searching for the source of the strange presence that engulfed the ruins of Conton.
"She's wide open!" Rind thought to himself as he readied to attack. Something in the distance captured his attention, a behemoth figure slowly began to appear. The figure's appearance could not be identified due to translucently of it's body but the outline of the massive creature was visible.
"LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT THING!" Tama yelled in shock "THAT GOTTA BE AT LEAST 200 METERS TALL!"
"Friend of yours?!" Rind asked with panic towards the Assassin but was in shock of the expression of fear that she wore on her face. Eyes burned red on the behemoth as it moved around restlessly, the earth shook with each step made by the creature as Patrollers and PTO soldier watched in awe of the massive creature.
The dark clouds swirled violently around the behemoth before a powerful bolt of lightning struck the creature revealing itself to doomed city of Conton.
Shiru's ominous message circled in the Assassin's mind, repeating over and over as every living soul in Conton froze insight of behemoth. The creature's body was cover in deep tissue scars, it had near black skin and burning red eyes, a masssive tail and ripped wings. It was dragon-like in appearance with the body shape of a dinosaur seemingly looking like something out of a famous Kaiju film.
"...It's almost God-like" Tama comment to himself.
Rind remained silent in awe of the massive creature that towered over Conton. The Assassin simply stared remembering the words of Shiru.
"The Beast"
