Chapter 3: Psycho Power

There was the endless crying. Then... There had been nothing but screaming. Then, Broly felt like his body was being incinerated.

Was that the sensation of death?

Broly barely had time to think it over, as he awoke with a start. Another dream. Once again, in his pod, as a baby… H felt like his entire world had been destroyed, as he could hear screams from people around him. The image, and the scream horrified him.

He looked at the clock. It was barely 5 am in the morning. After something like that, he could guess that he wouldn't be able to get back to sleep. So he got out of bed, and went out quietly. Coming into the main room of the complex, he was surprised to see Eggman Nega awake as well, in front of two capsules, each with alien-like life forms, though both retaining human-like shapes. One was mostly white, and very sleek indeed, and had a tail, as well. The other had his tail hidden, but the more complex shapes on his form and the fact that he was slightly more muscular, was an indication that the second one was more powerful than the first.

Nega, noticing Broly's sudden arrival, smiled. "Can't sleep either, eh? No matter. At least I'm not the only person who'll witness this. I am essentially cloning two of Goku's enemies. I suspect that their souls may enter these bodies, but we'll see."

The capsules suddenly opened, and both beings emerged. The sleeker one complained, "About time someone bothered to bring us back… Being in Hell isn't a picnic!"

Broly was actually impressed. Nega was looking very pleased with himself. "Greetings, Freeza, Cell… I see you have retained your memories of your time in the other world. I am Dr. Eggman Nega."

Cell chuckled, looking around. "Impressive, doctor. And my I ask who this Saiyan is…?"

"Oh, yes… This is my prized creation, Project Legend, but he prefers to call himself 'Broly'."

Freeza was annoyed. "Broli, Broly, what's the difference? It's the same vegetable. I HATE saiyans…"

Cell chuckled. "He meant no offence to you, Broly…"

Broly had a small smile on his face. "None taken. I want to see your abilities in battle."

Nega suddenly interjected. "For all his power and instinct, Broly has little fighting skill…"

Cell laughed. "You want us to teach him? Well… Why not. I can see that he'll be a star pupil!"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"There we go. Well-executed!"

In the training simulator, Broly had managed to execute a decent Kamehameha Wave, which Cell had just taught him. Freeza was barely able to dodge it. Cell was clapping, as Freeza went in for a tail swipe, but Broly blocked it, and fired an energy ball at him. Freeza easily dodged this. Cell suddenly suggested, "But before we can move on... I want to see if you can go up to the Super Saiyan level. After all, you won't be able to take on strong opponents without it."

Freeza laughed. "He's just a newborn! Going Super Saiyan, at this time? Compared to Goku, he's a weakling!"

The very mention of Goku made Broly's mind snap. Something about the dream he had, he felt was related to Goku... And he hated it. With one blink, his irises and pupils suddenly disappeared, taking both Cell and Freeza by surprise. His voice became rather horase, as he yelled, "Don't... Compare me... TO KAKAROT!"

BOOM. Broly's furious scream echoed, as the incredible rise in power created an explosion. Broly suddenly felt faint, before he came to his senses, finding himself in a ruined simulator chamber. Cell was horrified. "That... Power..."

He dashed out of the chamber. Freeza was rather impressed. "To destroy this chamber just by increasing your power, AND scaring the hell outta Cell... That's impressive..."

Broly nodded, as he suddenly noticed Mirage by the door. "Looks like it's your first time experiencing 'anger'. If you can't control it, don't expect to win any fights."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cell dashed into the main chamber, where Nega was waiting, watching the simulation tapes. "Doctor... Broly's power..."

"Yes, I know. Incredible, isn't it?"

Cell panted, as he continued. "How the hell did you create something like that...? What is he? His power... I could feel it! It was at least the power of four Super Saiyans combined! Goku wouldn't stand a chance, nor Gohan, or any of the other Saiyans!"

"That's the power of the Legendary Super Saiyan. Greater than all Saiyans... And greater than any other being in the universe! And he's mine to control!"

Cell was absolutely horrified. "Legendary... Super... Saiyan...? Incredible... But I must advise, I need to train him further! If his anger goes out of control..."

"I am fully aware of that! Yes, you will. I have several other training rooms for you to use. Also… I see that Broly has a negative reaction to certain ways Goku is mentioned. Only mention him if you must."

Suddenly, there was a nasty explosion at the side of the complex. Nega noticed, with one of the cameras, that a forces of men with guns were being lead by a muscular man with a red general's outfit. "That's... M. Bison! Bastard must have created a new body for himself."

Cell chuckled. "Bison? How about sending out Broly? He won't see that coming."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

M. Bison smirked, as his troops had already blown up a wall, and were prepared to storm the complex. But something happened that he didn't count on. Several of his men were sent flying, as Broly emerged through the hole in the wall. Bison stood his ground. "Ah, so this is Nega's creation… A Saiyan? Bah!"

Broly smiled, as he suddenly went Super Saiyan. "You came at a convenient time. You're the perfect punching bag."

Though the others were fleeing, Bison charged at Broly, unleashing his Psycho Crusher technique. "Punching bag? I am M. Bison, the ultimat-"

With one energy blast, Bison had been sent straight into the ocean. Watching the troops recover their leader, and flee the island, Broly laughed. "Clear off, and stay off!"

"Impressive. I heard Bison was one of the finest martial artists in the world, and you beat him with one attack."

Mirage walked up beside Broly, watching the scene with a hint of amusement. Broly chuckled, as he remarked, "Shame we won't be getting any more challengers. I was hoping he would last longer."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Broly decided to take a nap, before his next round of training, satisfied with taking Bison to the cleaners.

But the dream he had disturbed him. Nothing but darkness. All he could see... Was himself. There was no mirror. This 'Broly' had no irises or pupils, as if he was completely soulless. The 'clone' suddenly burst into laughter. "Legend... You don't need 'training'. You already have all you need."

"Who the hell are you?!?"

"I am you. To be precise... What you were before your death. You could say, I am 'Broly'. You're just the personality carved out to reflect this new body... And Nega never saw it coming."

With a start, Broly awoke. Mirage was standing by the door, looking rather impatient. "Are you going to keep napping? We have to train, you know."

Broly nodded to her, standing up, and following her, as he pondered what the dream meant...

To Be Continued

Author's Notes: Well, that was an interesting chapter, wasn't it? And to clarify, if anyone has guessed... Yes, the 'eyeless' Broly is essentially the same mad, bad Broly from DBZ. That explains why 'Legend' isn't insane.

Anyways... Expect a link to the page containing the 'commentary' versions of chapters to be up in my profile very soon, if not immediately.
