And here is the first big battle of this fic. Though lopsided since it does have Broly in it, I think it came out alright. Enjoy
A war cry rang from Broly's lips as he charged Cooler, throwing a punch at the purple lizard. Reacting, Cooler leapt into the air to dodge the punch, raising one of his legs up into the air. Then with a descending swing, he slammed his leg right on the saiyan's shoulder, causing a slight flinch.
Not bothering to take notice of his opponent's reaction, Cooler then flipped in midair and landed on his feet, his knees bent noticeably. Then pushing off the ground, the purple alien threw his own fist at the saiyan, nailing him on his chin and causing the giant's head to jerk back.
With a smirk on his face, Cooler was beginning to doubt all the claims that this monkey was invulnerable to physical attack when he finally took notice of Broly. Instead of wincing in pain or showing any other signs of damage, there was a smirk firmly planted on the saiyan's face, almost as if he had enjoyed that engagement.
Baring his teeth, the alien leapt back from his opponent, putting distance between the two. Thrusting his arms above his head, a large orb of energy appeared between his hands.
"Try this on for size!" Cooler yelled as he swung his arms down, firing the blast at Broly. Without the least bit of fear, the saiyan moved towards the attack, taking it head on as it detonated on him.
Not holding back, the lizard charged up another large ball of energy and fired it just as quickly, the blast impacting Broly as he appeared from the smoke of the last explosion.
And much to Cooler's dismay, the saiyan emerged unscathed once more and still showing the same evil smile. The next thing the alien knew, a very bulky arm had rammed right into him, easily picking him off the ground he stood on.
With a swing of his arm, Broly sent his purple opponent flying through the air, flipping out of control. Immediately, the saiyan powered up a green ball of ki in his hand and launched the attack at Cooler; the green orb colliding on the alien's back.
Cooler let out a yelp of pain as the attack exploded on his back, burning him badly. After the blast, the alien crashed into the ground and skidded until he came to a stop.
Getting back on his feet, the lizard growled deeply. Now he could see why the rest of his family was dead; this guy was a juggernaut, indestructible and unstoppable. But he wouldn't give in like they did; he would defeat this man and cast him into the depths of Hell.
But right now, he needed a better place to fight. Right now he was at a disadvantage, at least in the open. A place with some rocky edifices would be very desirable.
"Alright monkey, let's see how fast you are!" Cooler shouted as he flared his aura and took off high into the air, heading towards the horizon.
Watching his fleeing opponent, a stern look crossed over Broly's face. If that guy thought he could escape then he was sorely mistaken. Baring his malicious smile once more, the saiyan would make sure that mistake was realized.
Launching off the ground, the bulky saiyan gave chase, a wave of exhilaration welling up within him. There was nothing more exhilarating than hunting down one's pray in the middle of combat.
That line of thinking didn't last as Broly soon grew bored of it. Up in front of him, Cooler kept his current pace, almost as if he was looking for something. Well, whatever it was would have to wait; Broly's patience was all but spent and he was ready to relieve himself of his boredom.
The surrounding area soon began taking on a greenish tint, a prelude to the saiyan's upcoming attack. With a bit of focus, the green was pulled in around the legendary saiyan, forming a light green bubble around him.
Altering his course, Broly headed higher into the air until he reached an altitude he was comfortable with. With a loud cry, the green bubble around him filled up with bright green energy, masking his large form within it. Barely a moment passed when a barrage of green ki balls went flying aimlessly in all directions; their courses so random no one could possible predict where they would land.
And when they impacted the ground, great explosions erupted, destroying anything that was unfortunate to get caught up in the blast.
For Cooler, his once calm flight had become much more difficult as he found himself weaving his way around errant ki balls and explosions that cropped up unexpectedly. This would only serve to piss the alien off more than he already was. He was gonna make sure this oversized monkey was six feet under when he was done with him.
How he would do that though, would have to be put on hold. As unforeseen as the ki ball barrage had been, the sudden maniacal laughter of the monkey in question rang out and much closer than the purple lizard had thought he would be.
Flying mere feet off the rocky earth, the alien turned his head to look over his shoulder, catching sight of the saiyan closing in on him fast and with another green shield around him. Why he would need one was beyond the Cold heir; he was practically invulnerable as it was.
However, the true intention of the shield wasn't what Cooler had thought it would do. The moment Broly came close to the ground below them, the shield destabilized, sending the flames of an explosion all over the place.
The next thing Cooler knew, he was tumbling through the air, smoke pouring off his body. Out of the corner of his eye, he could see the resulting blast that had been caused by his opponent's attack.
That one glance told the fighter two things: one, he was out of the blast and not receiving any more damage from it; and two, the explosion was big.
Very, very big.
A moment later, Cooler crashed into the ground, ceasing his midair tumble. Slowly pushing himself up, he got back to his feet and stared at the dying detonation.
He had been a fool. What had he been thinking? Taking on such a brute force and expecting to come out no worse for wear was foolhardy, if not stupid. He should've known better. It didn't help him to think that was what his father and brother thought they could do.
The results of that kind of thinking were quite obvious.
Taking a look around, Cooler soon found he had arrived at a place similar to what he had been looking for. Tall rocky edifices stood all around, growing out of the rocky ground they stood upon. He wouldn't go as far as to say it was perfect but it definitely was ideal.
"It's about time you stopped running. I was starting to get bored."
The deep voice of Broly jerked Cooler back to his situation. Before him, he could see the large saiyan walking towards him, looking imposing. He was just gonna have to change that.
"Don't think I'll go down as easily as my brother and father did," Cooler retorted. "They were both fools and died because of it."
That caused Broly to smirk as he stopped his march a short distance away. "And what makes you not a fool?"
This time, it was Cooler who smirked. "Because, unlike them, I have discovered a transformation beyond their limits."
That didn't phase the saiyan. "I've already told you, you can struggle all you want, your fate will stay the same."
"I think not monkey. Once I've reached my full power, there won't be anything you can do against me."
"Then transform. It should liven my boredom."
"Oh, it'll do more than that my friend. Much more."
And that was all Cooler said as he braced his body. It was gonna take a little time, but with the at ease stance of his opponent, he would have all the time in world. Gradually he could feel his power rising as his transformation began.
The first thing to happen was his eyes; a bright red light glowing from them. Following that, his body started to grow, becoming bulkier as well as taller. Over his shoulders, the white chest plate of his anatomy extended off his body, forming a sort of hoop between his shoulder and chest plate.
Yet it was his head that took on the most noticeable change. Four horns sprung right out of his head; two from the sides and two diagonally from the top of his head. After that, small bone-like structures grew from the sides of his face, crossing in front of his mouth and digging into the opposite side of his face. It was like it was forming a mask on the lower half of his face. The affect of it though, darkened the upper half of his face, allowing his glowing red eyes to appear from the darkness.
All the while, Broly watched it. When the time came that he felt the show was over, he spoke "So this is your new form huh?"
In response, a deep, haunting voiced answered him. "You are correct." A chuckle followed before he added "Witness my ultimate power monkey! Your death has been assured!"
"Sorry, but I plan on living for awhile. Care to make an appointment later?"
His red eyes narrowed. "Go on, laugh yourself to your satisfaction. They'll be your last in this dimension."
"Maybe if you decided to fight instead of talking, maybe I would take you up on your offer," the saiyan countered.
That last taunt sent the alien on the war path. With his greatly increased speed, he disappeared from sight, reappearing in midair as he slammed his foot into the giant's head, causing it to snap to a side.
Using his momentum, Cooler moved through the air until he was behind the hulk, landing on the ground with his back to his opponent. With his tail, he lashed it out from behind him, the appendage sweeping Broly's legs out from under him, causing him to fall towards the ground.
Before he could land on it though, Cooler had swung his body around and grabbed the saiyan by his shoulders. Twisting his body, he threw his foe high into the air and watched as he flipped around uncontrollably.
Using his speed once more, he was suddenly within spitting distance of the saiyan, slamming his knee into Broly's stomach and stopping his wild flight, the hulk bending over the appendage. Crossing his arm over his chest, Cooler than swung it back, backhanding the saiyan and sending him flying towards a mountain. Giving chase, the purple fighter planted his foot right on Broly's chest, just as the saiyan hit the oversized rock; imbedding his body into it.
Pushing off, Cooler drifted away from the unmoving body of his latest victim. Slowly, he landed on the ground a short distance from the mountain Broly laid on.
That monkey…pitiful. He did all that boasting and for what? To be easily crushed by Cooler's ultimate might. He had warned him, hadn't he? He warned him that he would crush him in an instant, though he hadn't used that many words. That's what that filthy monkey got for not reading in between the lines.
A slight movement caught his eye then, followed by the sound of a rock clattering as it fell down the rocky edifice. Soon, Broly was back on his feet and looking no worse for wear, though there was a small smile on his face.
A smile that shouldn't have been there in the first place.
"I hope that wasn't your best shot," the saiyan called out. "Otherwise, you'll end up just like your family; begging for your worthless life."
Rage consumed Cooler as his energy spiked. Raising a hand up with the index finger pointing, he shouted "Death Beam!" In response, a small purple beam shot from his finger tip, racing at high speeds to destroy its target. Once contact was made with the saiyan, a large explosion occurred, destroying the mountain.
However, before Cooler could settle down, Broly exploded from the flames, charging like a bull and slamming his large fist into the alien's face.
The force of the blow completely overwhelmed the purple fighter as he went careening into a nearby mountain. Not done with him, the Legendary Super Saiyan rushed after him and went head first into Cooler's crash site, dust being kicked up in the aftermath.
On the other side of the towering rock, two figures burst out of it. Running, Broly held both of his arms out at shoulder height; one of them carrying Cooler off the ground. Continuing his course, the saiyan plowed into an unfortunate mountain that was in his path. A reoccurrence of the previous mountain happened as Broly broke through the tall rock from one side to the other, leaving this one to crumbled behind him.
The same action occurred once again as the hulk ran into yet another mountain, tearing right through it. However, once he busted through the other side he swung the arm carrying Cooler in front of him, sending the alien flying into the next mountain.
Pulling the same arm back, he continued his crash course until he was a couple yards away from his opponent. At that point, he threw his cocked back arm, slamming a fist right into Cooler's unguarded midsection, creating a small crater around the fighter as his body was forcefully rammed into the rock. A cross between a cough and gag left the alien's covered mouth, his red eyes wide open with pain.
"I'm disappointed in you," Broly taunted then. "I suppose trash is exactly that; trash."
Almost as if a switch had been flipped, fury filled the alien's eyes. With a loud cry, an eruption of purple energy was released from his body, causing a huge explosion that covered a large area.
Once the flames had extended to their full range, Cooler shot out of the top of the explosion, a purple aura surrounding him as he flew high into the air.
This was it, he had had it! That monkey had mocked him one too many times and now the planet would suffer the consequences! He'd blow the whole thing up and be done with it all! Not even this flea bag could survive that kind of blast!
However, due to his mind being distracted, not to mention keeping his attention down at the dying explosion, he never expected to run right into the so-called flea bag. As he turned his head to look in front of him, he was completely surprised to see Broly hovering in midair with both of his hands clasped over his head. With a mighty swing, the saiyan landed a jackhammer blow to the alien's head, sending him crashing into the smoke covered area of the now dead explosion; a fresh cloud of smoke and dust flying up from the landing zone.
Coughing, Cooler managed to get onto his hands and knees, trying to recover from that last strike. How…how had things gotten to this point? He was not only being outclassed by a low leveled monkey, but being annihilated like a bug going up against a bug zapper. There couldn't be any greater insult than that.
And that insult wouldn't go without reprisal.
The sound of boots landing on the ground alerted the alien to his opposite's presence. Looking up, his hate-filled eyes fell upon the giant.
"So, is there anything else you want to do trash? It's getting to that time where I toss you into the scrap heap with all my other broken toys."
It took all of the purple alien's will to suppress his anger, even going as far as to clench his fingers so tightly that blood began to trickle in between the digits. Slowly, he raised himself to his feet, deciding his next move instantly.
Drifting off the ground and into the air, Cooler began gathering his energy. All the while, Broly watched him with a smirk on his face. The confidence radiating off the saiyan's body was unquestionable, even from the growing distance the tyrant was putting in between them.
Raising one of his hands over his head and extending a finger, Cooler then focused his energy and pushed out of his body, allowing it to form into a very large, bright yellow ball of ki. "This is the end of you monkey," the alien coolly announced to his opponent. "No one has survived my Supernova technique, including a solar system. Your fate will be decided in the blast; one of death and darkness."
There was no reply from the smiling saiyan.
"Now be a good monkey and die!" Cooler shouted as he launched his attack, the large yellow ball flying fast at its target.
Unfazed by the large ki ball of destruction, Broly floated off the ground and held one hand up, catching the ball with ease.
"No one's survived this attack huh?" the giant saiyan questioned, holding the halted attack. "Let's put that claim to the test, shall we?"
Cooler couldn't reply. To say he was stunned by the fact his ultimate attack had been so easily stopped was an understatement. A foreign feeling of doubt and despair began to well up within the Cold heir. Was this what hopelessness felt like?
In the meantime, a malicious smile worked its way onto Broly's face. A second later a green light shown in the space between his hand and the side of the golden energy ball. And with that, Cooler's Supernova was flying right back at him, ramming right into his body and pushing him high into the air.
"There he goes," the Super Saiyan commented before letting a green orb of ki appeared in his still raised hand. "And now he dies."
On cue, the green ball of ki shot from the palm it sat on, racing along a curved flight plan as it headed towards the large golden attack. The moment the two different sized ki orbs made contact, a huge explosion that ignited the sky erupted, expanding until it touched the ground far below. If one were to be watching from space, they would've seen it as plainly as if they had been standing by it.
For what felt like an eternity, the ball of flames burned brightly. But like all things, it came to an end, leaving a mile wide crater in its wake; bellows of smoke rising from the hole.
And the only thing left standing to even witness the sight was the saiyan juggernaut Broly.
