"What are you fuckers waiting for? GET HIM!"
It was then that Goku turned his focus the other direction as all the heroes charged forward with the Blonde one hanging back and slowly walking towards the battle staring down Son Goku with curiosity.
Goku raised up his other hand and began to let out a yell as ki blasts began to shoot from his hand at the approaching team. They were caught off guard and began to dodge with the completely clad dark individual being the only one hit and thrown backwards. The female in dark themed clothing then began to have what appeared to be electricity envelop her as she then launched it at Goku. He had to then focus his ki blasts on canceling out the incoming attack while the other woman with the warrior-like uniform continued to charge.
When she was close enough to deliver a blow. Goku felt the heat beams from Homelander stop. As he also suddenly appeared in front of Goku next to Maeve with a mad glint in his eye and covered in dirt. As Maeve delivered a powerful kick, Homelander timed with her as all Goku was able to do was lift his free forearm to block the blow.
The kick was powerful enough to send him flying through the trees. As Goku opened his eyes while still hurdling he immediately threw his guard up once more as he saw Homelander right above him, having kept up, with his arm reeled back about to deliver a blow to send him into the ground. And so it was.
The impact was so powerful, that it not only left Goku in a crater in the ground, but delivered a massive shockwave that knocked down all the trees in the vicinity. Goku let out a cry as he definitely knew he had broken a rib with that blow. Before Homelander could deliver another blow, Goku quickly recovered and began to dodge more hits albeit slowly cuz of the new broken bone. He then saw his opportunity and delivered multiple powerful and quick jabs to Homelander's own abdomen before delivering a devastating uppercut that sent him hurdling skyward.
He had only a moment to recover as the lady that was conjuring lightning joined that battle and immediately tried to shock Goku who dodged jumping into the air. He then positioned himself above her and began to launch a tyrant of ki blasts as the woman then went on the run realizing Goku was above her.
Goku began to scream as he was releasing the blasts as he felt himself pushing hard to keep up and keep her on the run. He then quickly stopped and lifted his arms above his head blocking another powerful kick from Homelander who had recovered. By this point, the man looked extremely disheveled with some blood coming out of his lip. That being said, while Goku was able to block the powerful blow, he was still sent downwards and landed hard on the ground with his two feet with Homelander staying connected the whole time driving him downward.
Goku then seized the opportunity and latched onto Homelander's leg and tried to throw him. But before he could do that. The woman warrior rejoined the fight and came in with an uppercut while he was distracted with Homelander. So Goku had to let go or he would risk extreme damage.
Goku proceeded to then make distance flipping backwards in the air a few yards away breathing heavily. He stared down his attackers who all also seemed to be wearing out except for the female warrior and the blonde woman who Goku is seeing is just walking around. She has not engaged yet. He doesn't know where the dark clad one is.
Homelander was winded as well, wiping the blood from his lip with his glove while Maeve stared in amazement at Homelander as if she had seen God bleed. He gave her a hard stare back with pretty much the words "what are you looking at" being written all over his face.
"We don't have to do this!"
The attention of Maeve was then caught by Goku along with the rest of the team. Homelander was staring down Goku with a death glare as he began to imagine all the things he is going to do to him when he gets the chance.
"Huh?" Was Stormfront's response as Homelander was just too enraged to speak as he was letting his blood boil at the prospect of another sup actually damaging him.
"We don't have to fight! I do not know what had happened, whether I said something wrong, or I did something by accident. But I am sorry and meant no offense! We can end this fight right here, right now and go our separate ways."
The team was silent and staring him down. Goku continued.
"It is no offense to you guys. This was definitely a thrilling fight! I am pretty winded right now and my blood is boiling to fight some more and see where this goes since I am sick." Goku then changed his demeanor to his more determined side. "But I have an obligation to my friends and need to conserve my energy." For the Universe's sake Goku thought subconsciously
The team was confused on what to do with this information and waited for Homelander to make a decision. He just stared down Goku breathing heavily as Goku stared back with his own hard glare of determination he rarely uses and only does so to hammer a point home.
Homelander's eyes then began to glow red as Goku once again dropped into a battle stance. It was as he pulled his arm back behind him that he felt something grab it and pull him to the ground. Goku was caught completely off guard as the dark clad figure that was hit by the ki blast produced a syringe that he immediately stuck into his arm.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Goku let out a scream of both pain from the injection and pure fear of needles. He then proceeded in that said primal fear to accidentally punch Black Noir somewhere very sensitive in the lower area that sent him flying a few feet in the air as an audible small cry from the mute warrior can be heard when he came back to the ground and curled up into a fetal position while grabbing at the area.
Goku then began to slowly rise before falling back down on his behind.
"No… No…" he said as he then struggled again to get back up. Only to be met with Homelander's boot to his chest that shoved him back into the ground with Goku screaming. He was stepping on his broken rib with extreme pressure
"No… you-you don't understand… please… my friends. The Universe!" Goku was starting to feel himself grow desperate as he realized he might have to share with them what the Tournament of Power is. Perhaps then they will let him go and undue whatever he was injected with
"Oh don't you worry about them. I'll find them and take good care of them." Homelander said with a large smile as he pressed his foot down harder on Goku who screamed a little louder as his vision began to fade out with him seeing the rest of Homelander's team begin to encircle him. They all looked on with different reactions. Stormfront looked on with a sadistic smile while Maeve and Star Light looked on with almost what seemed to be disappointment. As for Noir… well.. he was still recovering. Homelander continued.
"What were their names? Bulma?... Chi Chi? Yeah don't worry you'll see them when they join you in hell when I am done torturing you."
This caught Goku's attention who's fading vision then began to slightly clear up as he knew the implications of what Homelander was saying. "Awwww what's the matter you don't like that?" Homelander said with a pouting face mockingly down at Goku as he saw the comment he made had made Goku's eyes widen from almost fluttering shut from the drug that Black Noir had injected. "Don't worry, I assure you it won't be quick." Homelander then looked up pretending to ponder with a finger on his chin and then looked back down. "Hmmm, actually want me to tell you how I'm gonna do it." He had a very large smile on his face as he saw Goku's face turn into a look of anger.
Goku then felt deep down a bubbling began to build.
"First I think I'm gonna find this Bulma. Then what I am gonna do is I am going to slice off every single finger and toe. Once done there, ill move on to her legs and her arms until she is nothing more than a fucking stump. Then finally, ill hang her up by her own entrails and watch her bleed the fuck out." Homelander was extremely upset that this Goku was able to damage him. So much so he didn't even realize some of his team was staring him down in disgust except for a few members. But he didn't care, the ecstasy of seeing anger and hate in Son Goku's eyes and knowing he can do nothing about it was too intoxicating.
"Don't… you… Leave her alone!" was all Goku was able to get out before Homelander pressed down harder with Goku releasing an even louder scream. But as soon as that was released he continued to glare at Homelander and feeling ever so slightly the bubbling begin to build.
"Oh and as for Chi Chi. Oh you don't even know what I am gonna do to her. From what you told me waking up in bed with her, she must be a significant other?" Homelander asked with a curious smile. "Is she a good fuck Son Goku?" As stated, Goku was dense. But he knew exactly what that word meant in that context from Vegeta and the implications Homelander was alluding to. Of course neither himself or any of his friends curse. Not only was it just unnecessary, but it was just dishonorable.
"You… You monster…. You STAY AWAY FROM HER!" Goku roared. This really got Goku mad as he started to try and push his body against Homelander's foot to get up. "AWWWW are you getting angry." Homelander stated as he pressed his foot down harder. However this time as he did so, Goku gripped his boot with both his hands. "Don't worry, Ill give her the ride of her life before I laser her brains out. Oh wait! Tell me Son Goku do you have a kid? I would really lov-"
That was it. That was when Goku felt the boiling inside of him just stop. And a sort of snap just deep inside of him. All he saw after that was red.
"You.. YOU STAY AWAY FROM MY FAMILY!" GOKU roared as he followed it up with an almost primal shriek as the force from his ki exploding sent everyone flying away. Homelander rolled across the ground before coming to a complete stop and turning to face Goku with his cape flailing widely behind him as he had to almost cover his eyes completely from the hurricane-like winds that appeared out of nowhere. As he finally was able to peak through and see Son Goku, he can say for probably the first time in his life he felt a feeling he never thought was possible of another being.
Fear. Pure absolute fear.
There the man in the orange gi rose from the crater in the ground with a drug injected into him that was meant to put down 1000 elephants 5 times over as if nothing happened. It was truly heartstopping for himself and his team wondering what in the fuck are they dealing with.
The clouds grew dark overhead with Stormfront staring skyward knowing she could only dream of conjuring storms such as this. Lightning began to strike the ground in the immediate area of Goku with the team backing up. Except for Homelander who was on the ground propping himself up with his arms just staring in shock, horror. And disbelief.
Meanwhile Goku then suddenly began to scream. But not in pain, but as if there was something inside that was trying to break out. Everyone just stared as they saw Goku's head of black spikey hair begin to rise slightly and seemed to have taken on a new style compared to his original one. His spiky hair seemed to slowly rise skyward calmly even with the hurricane like winds swirling around him.
Then the ground began to shake as Goku's hair began to somehow flicker. No one could explain it, but Goku's hair was visibly flickering between black and gold with each time it flickered Goku throwing his head back a little bit.
They then began to hear him speak in a deep booming voice. "Don't… DON'T…" then it felt as if the pressure in the air suddenly dropped. "DON'T YOU HURT MY FAMILYYYYY!"
Goku then exploded into golden flames releasing a shockwave that sent everyone rolling back a few more yards and trees flattened with only Homelander able to withstand the force and staring up at this…man with utter shock and disbelief to the point he cannot comprehend what is happening. He just couldn't process what was happening.
Goku suddenly disappeared from the sky. And appeared in front of Homelander with a face full of rage. Homelander barely had time to register as he attempted to look down at the man who was only a few inches shorter than him when he felt again a deep DEEP pain in his gut. He also swore he heard a crunch.
Homelander was once again curling around Goku's fist. Except this time, he spat out blood and was hurdled skyward flipping in the air as he tried to gain control. But by the time he did, he felt a gust of wind behind him and before he could defend himself, Goku came down with two fists and sent him hurtling straight towards the ground before once again appearing where Homelander should have collided with and delivering a kick sending him upward.
Goku then broke down into a stance as he cupped his hands behind his back.
"KAAAAAAAAAA MEEEEEEEEEE"
Homelander finally was able to control himself in the air and once he recovered he looked downward. WHO THE FUCK. WHERE DID HE… THIS CANNOT BE HAPPENING! Even though Homelander finally came to his senses, he began to think as a spoiled child would when they didn't get their way.
"HAAAAAAA MEEEEEEEE."
Homelander noticed the entire environment around Goku began to suddenly have a blue hue as a ball of light appeared in Goku's cupped hands. Homelander just started knowing deep down this was really really really bad. He couldn't move. Whether from shock or anger or just pure terror, he just stared down as Goku winded up his attack.
Shit… All Homelander was able to think.
Goku then pressed his cupped hands forward.
A.N. OOOOO Cliffhanger OOOOOOOO. Is Homelander gonna die? Was Goku pushed too far and has absolutely lost his shit? Did I just accidentally shit my pants writing this? Find out next time on The Lost Saiyan!
