Alrighty mates, time to have some fun. J
As soon as Goku woke up after a good few hours rest he knew what to do. His original plan was to distract the creature with a couple of his shadow clones and then creep up on him and use his best move, the dragon fist, on the creature. But now he realized that the creature would be able to sense his energy, he would have to use a different version technique. The creature would undoubtedly by then have figured out that the apparition was not the real Goku; he would then be able to sense the energy of another Goku and focus on him in turn. And even if Goku choose to forsake the fist in favor of a beam of concentrated energy he was sure the creature would sense that too and dodge or block it. The creature's particular protective shield was a type that worked mostly the same as a protective dome, it required no effort on the user's part, however it was not as good for defense as a shield, which had to be consciously deployed and maneuvered. Goku planned on using the weakness of the creature's shield, to hopefully, break through and get a direct hit. He strongly suspected that though that fat though elastic might not be that resistant. There was also the fact that when the creature stretched out its arm it left the protective field, Goku thought of using this to his advantage, he might be able to dismember the creature.
Goku returned to where he had left his clone. It seemed rather lonely standing there by itself. After a quick glance around to make sure the creature was still a good deal away I focused my energy into making another clone next to the one already there. The original fake (catch the irony?) was looking a bit worse for wear so I gave it a brush up fixing that too. Goku was feeling definitive improvement. He did not require nearly as much time and effort as the previous time, he realized, how much this tactic could be useful in future fight. He made more and more and more, until he had over a hundred clones and could make one within the space of half a minute. He then moved to his astral form to make sure he had done it all right, what he saw was not very satisfying. Goku had, unintentionally, been defiling the memory, the feel of his signature energy. The clones looked like dead cell, of a tissue, just like they were supposed to. The thing was that the creature would not be able to differentiate, as Goku could not either. It would simply check the signature or in biological terms, the DNA. However this was becoming less and less like the original. The first few were carbon copies but slowly small changes starting creeping into the design that was Goku's essence. His conscience or astral form once again memorized the shape, feel and other nuances of his essence and retreated into his body, but just before he did he noticed something. In his astral form Goku was far more aware of the vibrations and feels of other sentient beings as compared to his physical form, intact he believed his prowess in this state could rival the creature's skills themselves. However as he retreated he noticed a glimmer of energy on the corner of his senses, the creature was near.
Goku did not know why the creature had not attacked him before, if he could sense it in his physical form from so far away then surely it could too. What was this thing planning, Goku was feeling some odd disruptions in the energy he was sensing, and it was as if it was stretching towards him almost like…
Goku realized what was happening too late, he managed to escape but his hard made clones were all destroyed by the huge tube-like whip like arm that swept across them, shattering them into millions of crystalline fragments of like that slowly faded. Goku understood why the creature had made this move as he surveyed the arm sweeping about. Part of his training had included the masking of his aura and creating so many clones of his energy had made him far more familiar and comfortable with his cloaking skills, he had no doubt he was invisible to the creature, however cloaking all his clones was more that he could manage. The creature was so confident in its strength it did not feel any threat from Goku, but when it sensed so many more replicas of Goku's energy it became worried and felt threatened, so it destroyed the threat while it could. Goku realized that to make his plan successful he would have to create flesh and bone replicas that would be linked to his mind; he would have to instill them with energy too, so that they could move. In fact as he realized, he could make his own army. However it required a much higher level of skill. He would need to cloak not only himself, but an entire army, of course he did not think he could maintain more than ten but that should be enough, he left his body hovering in midair and felt his signature energy once, then in his astral form he scanned for the creature it was blundering around confused, he felt he had destroyed his opponent because he could not sense his energy, yet nothing happened, was he trapped here?
The creature was worried and Goku intended to keep it that way, he returned to his body and moved some miles away, then with infinite care, so not to let his energy leak, for he knew the creatures radar was piqued, he created a perfect copy, to create a clone under his cloak was difficult and took him several minutes, however the next came easier and not too much later he had five clones at his disposal, here he paused to let his body rest, but he knew that he could not go to sleep as that would mean his cloak would fall apart and that could not happen, the creature would be on him in less than a second. After some rest he made five more clones and proceeded to the difficult part of his plan. He needed to create a flesh and bone replica of himself if they were to contain true energy and not incinerate themselves in the process. He pricked his forearm with his nail and let a drop of blood fall before he allowed the wound to close. He held the droplet in the air and channeled his energy into it. All cells need to replicate is energy and soon he had enough blood to fill the human bloodstream. Then he left his body and through his astral form divided the blood into many segments, slowly altering the DNA based on the body of Goku. It was a lot like how a child learns to draw by copying the drawings of his elders. Slowly but surely Goku fashioned the body of a dead baby. This is also scientifically possible and humans have done it, it is the same as the cloning process that scientists have carried out with rats, plants and even sheep. They have yet to clone humans, but in theory the process is the same albeit challenging as the humans are the most complex living organisms on the planet. Now what Goku had wasn't exactly a baby, but a lump of flesh, bone, blood, and every other tissue formation in the human body, to create a full scale human body exactly like Goku would be extremely complex therefore Goku simply moved one of his clones forward and merged his clone's energy signature with the 'baby'. What this did was that it created a perfect baby Goku for the flesh bone's etc. rearranged themselves to form a rather deformed Goku, now Goku imbued him with large resources of energy. Because the original DNA was his the baby quickly matured into a body similar to Goku's. It was just like a Goku in a coma.
Now let me explain two terms to you, these respective terms are 'power level' and 'energy level'. A persons power level is the amount of energy his body harnesses at any given time or period, this is his basic strength. His energy level is the amount of power that is inside his body at the given moment; energy level burns itself out with use and replenishes itself based on power level. A person's power level is easy to sense and so is his energy level however the energy may also be given from another source, power levels cannot be transferred and must be trained to achieve. Lecture finished.
It took a few hours but by now Goku had ten perfect copies of himself however now that they were more than just light he could not simply think of them moving and they would move, he had to link them to his mind which was already done but they needed energy, he could do it the simple way or the way that would show the creature where they were and throw him in a panic. To put the poor beast out of its confused misery he chooses the latter. He gave them a little bit of energy and makes them stand in a tight circle around him. And then he charges his power to its max reaches, he is distributing his energy within his clones already, and because he wants them all to have enough energy to be able to stay safe of the creature if need be, he charges up to kaioken level fifty. Keep in mind that all this is similar to training for Goku and now he is far stronger than before. The massive outwash of energy scares the creature and it doubles its speed to get to Goku, its arms can only extend so much. Goku now has ten clones with five times as much energy he has in his normal state each. They sucked out all of his energy during his kaioken outburst. He is now winded but he knows that his clones will be safe; he links his mind with each of them to form a secure connection his intellect is now increased eleven fold, after he does now have eleven brains. Goku however has no chance to marvel and his own achievement and genius as he senses the creature getting ever nearer; he sends his clones away zooming away in different directions to further worry and confuse the monster. It senses eleven identical energy signatures; however one of them has next to no energy. It logically assumes this to be the fake and leaves in search of the remaining eleven; obviously it makes up in strength what it lacks in intelligence.
Goku allows himself a brief rest to gather his wits about him as he directs his many counterparts towards safety and slowly rejuvenates his own lost energy. When he feels he has recovered enough energy he charges up his energy and flies toward the creatures, his clones come from a legion behind him and follow. The eleven Goku's now land in a very loose circle around the creature and shoot a blast of energy meant to wind more than damage towards the creature each. The creature is dazed and confused not knowing where to direct his attack and during this period the Goku's channel all their energy towards the original Goku and promptly fall lifeless. Goku collects all the energy and shoot it in a single brilliant beams of white light towards the creature.
And then something horrible happens, the creature starts laughing, a low harsh guttural laugh that keeps going on and on and suddenly its hands shoots forward, tearing through the white light and grabs Goku by the neck. Goku realizes the true power of this alien creature. Its protective shield is shattered, but that was only the first line of defense, its skin is so tough it does not need the protection of the shield to keep it safe. As his grip tightens around Goku's neck he starts seeing his life fade before his very eyes.
Phew, well…that's it. This was a tough chapter to write took me all of three days to finish. I hope my hard work paid off. I pray that you all find this chapter very enjoyable and informative to read.
The only reason I write these stories is because I get ideas and I feel like I want to share them with my friends and family. And the world, and what better way than through this website. Looking forward to reviews if you leave any. I'll see you..
