Chapter Three: Results
Weeks would pass and each of the warriors grew stronger. Mastering each of their own powers and discovering new ones as the end of the month drew closer. Little do the heroes know that they are about to face a fight unlike the others they've fought before.
"Whew! A Month in there is really tiring" Kento said opening the door with torn clothes.
"I'm exhausted!" Yuuki sighed, following after him.
"Thank god Goku did his own training after a week" Zato sighed exiting his room brushing himself off.
"Hey guys" Goku said walking out of his room naked.
"UNCLE! PUT SOME CLOTHES ON!" Kento yelled.
"GEEZ! NOT AGAIN GOKU!" Zato yelled.
"THERE ARE GIRLS HERE!" Yuuki yelled.
"But my room burned all my clothes off" Goku said.
"Well just hurry and get some new ones before any of the girls see you!" Yuuki said.
"Ugh...now we see why you two like that 'God Form' so much we learned quite an interesting quick as Neous" Nero said.
"...Someone care to explain why Goku is butt-naked?" Isamu asked with a sweat-drop.
"Same reason why we're soaking wet..." Zang said walking our rinsing his shirt.
"Training underwater will do that." Akihiko said.
"Wait...Serena and Tsukimi are a fire element like Goku" Kento said.
"...You don't think?" Yuuki blushed.
"Here we go!" Goku said putting on new pants.
"Serena?" Kento said knocking on the door.
"Tsukimi? Are you both alive in there?" Yuuki asked, touching the doorknob before quickly pulling his hand back "GAH! Oh man that's hot!"
"Serves you right" Serena said walking out in slightly burnt clothes.
"Of course we'd be alive, training in the core of the planet made us immune to burns." Tsukimi said.
"Of course we had to leave out clothes on some rocks" Serena said.
"Otherwise they'd turn to ashes." Tsukimi said.
"We had an excellent training together! Did you know we could move wind fast enough to slice a rock in half?" May said walking out.
"I have to say, I'm feeling very confident about our new chances!" Kimiko smiled.
"What about Kasumi and Naomi? Did they survive?" Tsukimi asked.
"Right here" Naomi said appearing out a thin air, "we just searched the whole castle in seconds, were as fast as lighting now."
"Now no one can touch us!" Kasumi smirked as she appeared.
"Did you know the Cosmo room has a bed made of a cloud?" Naomi said.
"I bet she sleeps like a baby every night." Kasumi said. "Hm, so where's the long-haired idiots?"
"Right here" Reyoto said walking out slightly more buff and covered in sweat, "stupid sun came out, now were all sweaty."
"Ugh, I need a shower. God my muscles are sore." Mamoru said, rubbing his shoulder.
"Oh~" Naomi said walking around Reyoto.
"Eh, seen better." Kasumi shrugged.
"Check this out" Reyoto said holding a large diamond, "we can make jewels in seconds now!"
"Mom is gonna be happy that I can do this now." Mamoru smirked, holding a large diamond in his hand.
"Well I had an interesting month in solitude" Zato said cracking his neck.
"Well you're not the only one, Akina went in there alone too but we haven't seen her yet." Tsukimi said.
"What can you do now Zato?" Kento asked.
"This" Zato smirked looking at Kento as Kento skin began to turn to metal, "I can now project shields on anyone I want."
"That is awesome! You look like a ripped Silver Surfer!" Yuuki said.
"Oh my" Serena smirked.
"That should come in handy." Tsukimi said before seeing Akina come out of her room wearing a purple hooded cape. "Oh man I'm exhausted!"
"I did all I can with her. She don't even need to take a Warlock Exam now" Azumuri said walking out.
"So you count as a warlock now?" Tsukimi asked.
"According to Azumuri, my magic power is now only about a third from being on Malagor's level." Akina smirked.
"In her Base form that is. I am interested to see if her power doubles in her God Form" Azumuri smirked before disappearing.
"Where'd he go?" Yuuki asked.
"Oh he was just a magic projection. He was never really here." Akina shrugged. "Man I need a bath my muscles are killing me!"
"Point me to the nearest shower" Logan said walking out shirtless and using a towel to clean his face.
"...first time I've seen his scars. Never lets anyone see his body" Kento whispered.
"Maybe the training did this?" Yuuki whispered.
"What can you do now Logan?" Nero asked.
"I see spirits...the Lost souls who could not find their way to Otherworld or Hell, the ones invisible to your eyes. I can also use the souls as a weapon."
"I guess that just leaves Harmony and Suki." Tsukimi said.
"Suki been on her own after I showed her some basics" Harmony said leaving his room, "looks like I can suck out one peace and make them fall into despair."
"Hi!" Suki smiled as she was walking down the hall. "Isn't it almost time for Afternoon Tea Excalibur?"
"FOOL! Afternoon tea is not until noon exact."
"I want to kill that rat. Violently for some reason" Naomi said.
"Are you alright Suki? It looks like you managed to make it out of there alive." Mamoru said.
"Uh-huh! I learned to do a lot of things! Watch!" She smiled, looking at Reyoto and touched him as he fell over.
"What did you just do? I can see Reyoto soul leaving his mouth" Logan said.
"I can take away his life and give it back too!" Suki smiled as she touched Reyoto again as his spirit went back into his mouth.
"AH! MY LIFE FLASHED BEFORE MY EYES!...I had a very boring childhood in a past life."
"See? I can kill anyone I want!" Suki smiled.
"How can she say that so sweet?" Serena whispered.
"I have no idea.." Tsukimi whispered back.
"Oh! I can also fuse with Excalibur and Chiba in my god form!" Suki smiled.
"Did anyone else create their own Limit attack?" Harmony asked.
"Limit attack? We were just trying to pull a sword from the ground." Mamoru said.
"It's a Gods last trump card. When you find yourself near death and backed into a corner we God can use a Limit it restore our energy to MAX for one attack only and this attack has to be strong. Mine involves sucking my enemy inner peace and the minute they fall into despair I kick them in the air and hit them with my God Wave" Harmony said.
"So it looks like we're all nearly ready but I know for a fact that we're still outnumbered with Nightmare's forces getting larger by the day." Akina said.
"We got out a day early to rest up. Get cleaned and do any last minute things. I suggest the parents here go see their kids" Harmony said.
"...our kids" Kento said looking at a family picture in his wallet.
"Well we don't have any kids but we could go see our families." Kimiko said.
"It's best to say any goodbyes" Harmony said.
"Brace yourself Yuuki, when Mom hears of all this she may crack your spine in half with her hugs." Isamu sweat-dropped.
"My back already hurts.." Yuuki sighed.
"I will see you all tomorrow" Harmony said heading down the hall.
"I know that Harmony found another mage to help us out, but where is she?" Akina asked.
"In the only door here that is still closed" Zato said.
"I guess she's still training." Tsukimi shrugged before seeing Morgana come out of the room, still wearing her councilmen's cloak.
"Hmmm" Naomi said looking from her to Logan, "call me crazy but I see some similar facial features."
"You're right, they do look a little similar." Kimiko said.
"I don't see it" Logan said.
"I'm heading back to the council until the time comes." Morgana said simply as she started walking down a hallway.
"From what we learned this fight taking place at the Battle Field of the Gods. The War field for every battle Gods had with one another but this place is very unique" Zang said.
"Unique how?" Yuuki asked.
"Well except for the fact that you die you don't 'die' you vanish and if all of one side vanish the other can attack the Goddess/ God who that side. But if both sides vanish the war starts all over and neither side has memories of their homes or the past fight. It may be a never ending cycle" Zang said.
"So we could be stuck fighting forever?" Tsukimi said.
"Exactly. And with Titans on the other side they could take out Cosmo and then what happens? We all do die and with the Saiyan Gods all vanished our sector of the Multiverse will crumble" Zang said.
"I don't know if I can handle losing all my memories." Yuuki said.
"Better than dying a horrible agonizing death...actually you can in this world but you will have no memory of it when you are brought back" Zang said.
"This is sounding more and more like a pain in the ass to me." Kasumi said,
"I better get ready. The kids are not going to like this" Nero sighed.
"Neither is Ringo." Isamu sighed.
"I already know Dad's gonna hate this." Kasumi said.
Later that Day!
"Hmmm" Harmony said in the library looking through a book.
"Did you find something interesting?" Cosmo asked.
"With your fight with Chaos you split you powers into 10 crystals that ensure you're warriors would live when you were destroyed and they had the power to take out that God...even after they returned to their home worlds those crystal all rejoined to recreate you. That trick won't work again. Not with other Gods I was thinking of how to make our trump card " Harmony said.
"It would be a good idea to have a trump card like that." Cosmo said.
"If all the warriors that our Gods create their own crystals we can pass them onto a warrior that is not a God, Logan or Morgana" Harmony said flipping through the pages.
"But the current gods don't know how to do that at least not yet." Cosmo said.
"Exactly. Each of them will need to do what the last warriors did. Defeat an enemy with their own power and no outside help. Then there is the issue of getting Ash back."
"That is an issue, like I said before, his power is still unstable. But with the goddess of Creation awakened I think she may be the key to bringing Ash into our custody."
"I will have to keep researching."
"You need to rest as well Harmony."
"I can't. I have to make sure nothing happens to them again."
"I know you are worried about them, I know that this is a situation that caused you a lot of grief before, but you need to rest as well."
"I will rest in a little bit."
"Just don't overexert yourself." Cosmo said as she started walking out.
Elsewhere!
"Man I hate doing that" Kento sighed looking to his kids, "how do you tell your children you may die tomorrow and not expect tears?"
"Well we're here to help you, you have to tell them, it's better they expect it then learn when you're already dead like I did when my dad died." Yuuki said. "Besides… I'm dreading telling my mom what's going on. She may kill me."
"Man up. Got to tell her sooner or later" Nero said.
"You're not the one she'll hug until I pass out from lack of oxygen." Yuuki said.
"Even so take a deep breathe before you break it" Serena said.
"I know how you guys feel, I don't know how my little sisters are gonna take this let-alone my mom." Tsukimi said.
"How it go with you Akihiko?" Zang asked.
"Of course my parents disapproved, my father knew that this was something that had to be done, I believe my mother is still in tears, as for my maids, I believe Saffron wished me luck but I suspect she may be crying. Rosemary wished me luck as well and Anise began crying." Akihiko sighed.
"Nothing but tears all around" May said.
"My parents were heart-broken but they wished me luck during this battle." Kimiko sighed. "It made me a little more apprehensive about this war. To be honest, I'm a little scared.."
"That's nothing. Ever seen four grown men cry? I have watching Kasumi break the news" Naomi said.
"It's not as funny as you may think it is." Kasumi said.
"It's disturbing! Puffy eyes snot running out of their noses UGH! I need a bath!" Naomi shivered
"How do you think I felt? I had to scrub for a good hour after that! And they were slobbering all over me!" Kasumi shuddered.
"...My mother nearly drowned me in her tears" Kento said.
"Yeah nearly died there, our mom wouldn't let us go. I was tempted to get the jaws of life." Isamu sweat-dropped.
"Bardock seemed confident we would win, even though he confirmed his visions stop at when we leave tomorrow" Nero said.
"I would be more comfortable if my baby sister wasn't fighting with us." Mamoru sweat-dropped.
"So after we win, you two can come home and live with me!" Suki smiled at Excalibur and Chiba.
"Then we shall partake in my 12 hour storytelling party!"
"12 hours?! Good luck Mamoru" Kento said.
"Don't remind me!" Mamoru yelled.
"Excalibur I thought you said mid-day yelling wasn't for another hour." suki pouted.
"It isn't!"
"Oh shut it rat! I'm already sick of looking at whatever-the-hell you're supposed to be!" Mamoru growled.
"FOOL! Would you like to hear of my legend? It dates back to the 12th century you know?"
"Well I hope the rest of you are happy! This is what happens when you get Suki involved! This is what you all get!" Mamoru growled.
"Shut up Mamoru. None of us likes the idea of a child in this war and you don't see us complaining about another child being held captive on the other side, try being more sensitive to other feelings" Nero said.
"Talk to me when you have to live with this!" Mamoru growled, holding up Excalibur. "I don't even know what it is!"
"That was divine punishment. You probably did something very naughty to earn that rat in your life" Harmony shrugged.
"I didn't do anything! If anyone deserves punishment it's Kasumi! She even made the principal cry!" Mamoru said.
"Oh no this is her punishment too. He can't die so he can annoy the hell out of Kasumi and never die" Harmony said.
"You know since you're a part of this circle that the rat will mess with you too right?" Mamoru sweat-dropped.
"I've known him long enough to avoid his actions you on the other hand good luck."
"...Now I'm hoping that I'll die in this stupid war."
"You know, I just noticed that Akina isn't here yet." Tsukimi said, looking around.
"Magic requires a different kind of rest, she passed out in her room" Kento said.
"I don't blame her, she looked exhausted when she came out." Tsukimi said.
"We only have a few hours before we can all pass out. Hmmm what to do?" Naomi said.
"I still don't have blackmail material on you people." Kasumi smirked.
"That's cause you were too busy going after Bardock" Serena said.
"Speaking of which, I hope he likes his little going away present from me." Kasumi smirked.
"I'm back" Zato sighed walking in rinsing his shirt.
"What's that on your shirt?" Yuuki asked.
"Tears! First from my mother, then from Aunt Chichi and the last from Mia" Zato sighed.
"We know the feeling, I think our mom may be dehydrated now." Yuuki sweat-dropped.
"Ugh~! I'm bored you people are boring!" Kasumi sighed.
"Were going to war tomorrow! What do you want to do? Have a party?" Kento said.
"Now there's an idea." Kasumi smirked.
"You want a party?" Reyoto said.
"Well duh! We might as well have some fun before this stupid war begins!" Kasumi said.
"You have your idea of fun and we have ours, a party before a war? This is Cosmos place we can't just turn her home into a loud party" Zang said.
"Feel free to do what you wish, I agree with her. There is no harm in some merrymaking before going to battle. I still have a few reinforcements to call in anyway." Cosmo said.
"You heard the lady!" Naomi said.
"If we're gonna go out! We're going out with a bang!" Kasumi smirked.
"The last time you said that, we started summer vacation cleaning spray paint off the inside of the school gym." Mamoru sweat-dropped.
"No vandalizing my lady home!" Harmony said.
"You know the way you say 'my lady' makes me think you think of her as more than just a boss." Kasumi smirked.
"It's out of respect I address her as 'My Lady or Her Grace' she my boss" Harmony said.
"I'm surprised Akina hasn't gotten jelly of her yet." Kasumi smirked.
"Why would she? She just my boss" Harmony shrugged.
"Think about it, you spend time with a beautiful woman, that'd make anyone jelly." Kasumi said,
Women this century get so jealous of such little things" Harmony sighed.
"Never underestimate the heart of a woman, we can be as sweet as sugar and then become psychopaths in the blink of an eye." Kasumi chuckled.
"Exhibit A" Serena said pointing at Naomi and Kasumi.
"Hey that's only if someone pisses me off." Kasumi said.
"See what I mean?" Serena said.
"Are you sure we should be throwing a party if Akina's passed out in her room?" Tsukimi said.
"Each room sound proof" Harmony said.
"I mean she'd miss out." Tsukimi said.
"So you wanna wake her?" Harmony said.
"Uh not really. No one should wake her, her reflexes make waking her painful." Tsukimi sweat-dropped.
"Just throw an airhorn in and close the door she'll come out already punch free" Naomi said.
"You wanna do the honors?" Kasumi smirked.
"Sure" Naomi said holding out ducktape.
"Oh this should be entertaining." Kasumi smirked as she picked up an airhorn.
"Where did you get that airhorn?" Mamoru sweat-dropped.
"A real demon never reveals her secrets." Kasumi smirked as she put the duct tape on the air horn and threw it into Akina's room.
"...Okay she hasn't come out yet." Yuuki sweat-dropped.
"Maybe I should check on her." Kimiko said as she slowly opened the door and saw Akina still passed out on the floor.
"The hell? She has to have earplugs in" Naomi said.
"And where would she get earplugs from?" Kasumi said.
"Hello? Magic? Piccolo made items appear out thin air all the time" Naomi said.
"Man messing with her hasn't been as fun since she became a mage but there's one thing that will wake her up." Kasumi smirked, looking at Harmony.
"Why you lookin at me?" Harmony said.
"Oh come on, do I have to draw a picture?" Kasumi said.
"She has earplugs in, I can't wake her without getting punched."
"Yes you can, go kiss her." Kasumi smirked.
"Kasumi, you're terrible." Tsukimi sighed.
"What? Every girl wants to be woken up by a kiss by someone like him, I'm doing her a favor." Kasumi smirked.
"This isn't Sleeping Beauty" Harmony said.
"I know you want to~" Kasumi smirked.
"And I know all I will get is a slap."
"Man I thought a god would have more balls, than again your name is girly. Are you scared of her?" Kasumi chuckled.
"Fine if I go and do that you got to go over there and suck out Mamoru soul again."
"That would get him to shut up." Kasumi shrugged.
"Exactly."
"Well get in there, your princess is waiting~" Kasumi smirked.
"Fine" Harmony said walking in and closed the door behind him.
"BOO! You're no fun!" Naomi said.
"We wanted to see!" Kasumi pouted.
"Oh well, better go get the snacks and steal Mamoru soul" Naomi shrugged.
"Man I wanted blackmail material." Kasumi sighed. "Yo! Mamoru! Get over here!" Kasumi called.
"AND ANOTHER THING- Wait here, I'll kill you when I get back rat!" Mamoru growled as he started walking over.
"FOOL! You shall partake in the 12 hour storytelling party!"
"What is it Kasumi? I'm this close to taking a golf club and-" Mamoru stopped and his eyes widened when Kasumi kissed him.
"Reyoto! Get in that kitchen and prepare food!" Naomi said.
"Please can go a long way you know!" Reyoto said.
"You get a please when that rat gets a knife in the eye." Kasumi said, dropping Mamoru on the floor as his soul started coming out.
"AHHH! Not again! Get the plunger of life!" Kento said.
"Oh not again! Hang on Mamoru! You can't die on us yet!" Yuuki yelled as he ran over with a plunger.
