Chapter 28: Symbolic Power
A/N: Hey Guys! So just a reminder, chapter 27's place holder was replaced in case you didn't see it, so make sure you read Chaper 27 beforehand. Anyway, enjoy!
Some time later, a few Namekians came by with the large Dragonballs. Each one put them into position as Moori stood in front of them
"Porunga I summon you forth!!" Moori yelled in his native language
Many silent moments passed before the sky darkened, and the Dragonballs began to glow
Suddenly a large beam emitted from the balls, going straight to the sky
The beam curved and grew until it formed the great dragon. Eventually the light subsided to show the dragon, who looked similar to Shenron with a few key differences
Unlike Shenron, Porunga was more humanoid than dragon. He was more like a buff man with features of a dragon. His large tail curved once to touch the Dragonballs, and he had two large and buff arms with sharp fingernails. His upper body was also buff, and he had the same fingernail like material on his shoulders and head. His head was small compared to the rest of his body
"You who have collected the Dragonballs, state your three wishes." Porunga boomed as Moori turned to the two Saiyans. Goku cleared his throat
"Bring back those who were killed by robots of evil in the past months." Goku told Moori, who repeated the same thing in his native language to Porunga
A few moments passed before Porunga's eyes flashed a bright red
"It has been done, now state your next." Porunga boomed as Moori turned to the two again
However Vegeta was the next to respond
"I have a question. Ask him about any more tales of the Saiyans." Vegeta asked, which surprised Goku
"Wait what? Where did this come from?" He asked in confusion as Vegeta responded
"With Cell on the loose we have to find a way to increase our power, and Super Saiyan 3 isn't going to cut it, neither is fusion. We have to know if there is more in stock." He responded logically
Everyone nodded as Moori turned to Porunga once more
"Great Porunga. How many tales of the Legendary Saiyans are there?" Moori asked
There was a moment of silence before Poruna boomed once more
"This will cost you one wish, is that ok?" Porunga warned, however the two nodded
"Very well then. There are many tales of the Super Saiyan of Legend as well as two others. But there are two that have been deeply lost to time. I believe those are the tales in question." Porunga responded before continuing
"The first is of the original Super Saiyan. Who over time graduated into what is now known as the Super Saiyan 3. However, seeking further power he sought from one last source, the moon." He said, surprising the others
"He used his newfound power and graduated further, becoming an Oozaru with Super Saiyan strength. Overtime the Saiyans became more forgetful, leaving the legendary Oozaru as the staple of the Super Saiyan form." Porunga said
"The second is of the legendary Super Saiyan God. The tale states of evil becoming rampant in the planet Vegeta. Seeking the power to stop all evil, five pure hearted warriors channeled all of their power into another, creating the Super Saiyan God." Porunga continued
"The warrior used his power to defeat and destroy all evil Saiyans, but disappearing just as quickly. His effort however, was in vain as overtime evil bloomed and spread once more, and the tale was lost." Porunga finished
"Legendary Oozaru? Super Saiyan God? What in the hell?!" Vegeta took in the information
"Wow, I didn't know we still had more power left to unlock, this is exciting." Goku said with a smile
"Then that means there is only one thing left to do." Vegeta said as he turned to Moori
"Alright then. Tell the dragon to give those with Saiyan blood their tails." Vegeta said, to which Goku looked a little taken aback
"Wait...the kids too? I thought it would be just the two of us." Goku questioned as Vegeta shook his head
"No. We should make sure that everyone has access to this power." Vegeta stated
"I don't know, none of them know what happens when you stare at the moon, plus Goten and Trunks..." Goku said with doubt
"Those are problems that are easily fixed. And if my son ever tries anything stupid I'll nail his head to a wall for a day." Vegeta said simply
"Hehe, I get it. But you don't mean 'nailing to a wall' literally right?" Goku asked as he rubbed the back of his head
However Vegeta looked at him with a blank and emotionless expression, which greatly cleared things up for Goku
He gulped before he turned back to Moori and nodded for him to make the wish. The Namekian yelled out the same sentence that Vegeta stated
There was a moment of silence before Porunga's eyes flashed red once more
Just then Vegeta and Goku were startled by an oddly uncomfortable presence on their backs. Soon a strange feeling overcame them, as brown tails bursted from them
"It is done. Farewell." Porunga said as he was encased in light
The light soon absorbed the Dragonballs, creating a beam that retracted back into the Dragonballs. The light immediately subsided, leaving the Dragonballs to be stone
The Saiyans marveled at their tails. Vegeta missed having his tail, seeing it as a symbol of the Saiyans. Goku sort of missed his tail, but didn't have too many memories of it
"Wow, I forgot what this felt like." Goku commented as he turned to Moori, while Vegeta wrapped his tail around his waist as had years before
"Anyway, thanks Moori, we really owe you." Goku said as Moori shook his head
"There is no need Goku, we're simply repaying you for all you have done." Moori said with a smile
Goku nodded as he put two fingers to his forehead. Vegeta placed his hand over Goku's shoulder and the two then teleported away, leaving the peaceful planet
Goku and Vegeta appeared once more at Bulma'a house. This time however, everyone looked incredibly confused as they looked at the Hybrids, each one had a tail that appeared without reasoning
"Uh... hey you two, did you do this?" Bulma asked
"Yeah, and there's a good explanation for it." Goku answered
"Well then spit it out." 13 said impatiently
Everyone gathered around Vegeta and Goku as Vegeta cleared his throat
"When we revived everyone again, we also decided to ask if there is more Saiyan power that we are missing, and there is." Vegeta explained, to everyone's surprise
"Really? Heck yeah!! We can get stronger!" Kid Trunks exclaimed as he fist bumped Goten
"Wow, I know that we always find new forms but I didn't know there were still more." Gohan said with disbelief
"What are the forms?" Future Trunks asked simply
"There are two actually. One is called the Super Saiyan God, and the other is the Super Saiyan Oozaru." Goku said
"Huh, then that explains the tails then." Gohan remarked as he remembered all about the Oozaru form, and the time he became an Oozaru as well
"Exactly, but that means that we all must be stricter with our schedules, especially with you two." Vegeta said as he remarked towards the kid Hybrids, who both snickered playfully
"Anyways, we can access the forms...we just have to know who gets them." Goku confessed as he rubbed his head. Vegeta however, already knew the answer
"If it's about the Oozaru, then I'm the only one here who can control the form, so I must be the first." Vegeta said simply
"Well how do we get Super Saiyan God?" Gohan asked
"Hm...well Porunga said that five Saiyans got together and gave their energy into one more." Goku recalled
There was a moment of silence before Gohan came forth
"If that's the case then we're set. Goten, Trunks, Mirai Trunks, Vegeta and me make five. Dad can be the last one." He said
Everyone looked around and nodded along. Goku and Vegeta were the best suited for the task, seeing as how they are the oldest Saiyans around
"Ok, then it's settled. Why don't we try to do this now?" Bulma asked as everyone nodded
"So...how are you supposed to do this?" Yamcha asked
"I don't really know...let's try getting in a circle." Goku suggested, followed by the Saiyans gathering in a ring
There was an awkward moment of silence again as everyone looked around in confusion
"...do we just...power up now?" Goten asked as he became a Super Saiyan
Everyone nodded and became Super Saiyans as well, and charged to their full potential
Gohan decided to outstretch his arm towards Goku, and remotely feed him his Saiyan energy
Everyone followed along as they pooled their power into the single vessel. As they did so Goku's power grew and filled to its brim, as he was surging with energy
Suddenly however, his energy seemed to slowly disappear as everyone was enveloped in a light blue light
"Wow, it's working." Bulma said out loud
Slowly Goku floated as the light that enveloped him lifted him up high. His figure was encased in a bright white light with blue edges
The light then exploded outwards, creating a bright flash that blinded everyone for several seconds like a flash-bang. Once everyone recovered, they found themselves staring at a marvelous sight
There stood Goku, with a curious expression on his face while examining himself. There was a faint blue outline over him, as well as his hair flowing against an invisible wind. However his hair, eyes and eyebrows were all red, and his power signature was gone. His presence was godly, yet strange as everyone was astonished
"I-is that what the form is?! It's so... so..." Krillin began but was cut off
"Empty." 13 said plainly. Though he was surprised by the light show, he was more focused on the fact that his energy signature was gone entirely
Vegeta was still in slight shock as he stared at the form. Never in his life did he ever expect something so...majestic to come from the power of Saiyans. It was like Goku had lost all of his primal power and truly ascended into what the name was supposed to be. A God
He had mixed feelings, to say the least. But at the end of the day, it was Saiyan power that Goku held
Goku looked up to see everyone staring at him, and smiled
"So I guess I'm not imagining things." Goku said simply. He felt incredibly odd, both with himself and with the form
While he couldn't feel the form at all, it didn't feel empty, in any sense of the word. Instead he felt powerful, godlike even
Goku also couldn't help but stare at the symbolism of the form. It was the accumulation of all the power of his friends and family. In a sense, if it wasn't for them he wouldn't be as strong as this, at all
It was incredibly symbolic, yet something inside of him churned. It was as if something deep inside of himself didn't like the form
Vegeta scoffed audibly as he crossed his arms, ignoring his previous thoughts
"If we're done gawking, then I'll get to my form." He said as he flew up towards the sky
"Kids, don't look at the sky alright." Gohan advised as he turned away from the sky, along with Goku, Goten, Kid Trunks and Future Trunks
Vegeta created the white ball of energy as he recalled all of the memories of him using the ball. This would be like any other transformation...right?
He launched the ball straight towards the sky
"Burst Open and Mix!!!" Vegeta exclaimed as the ball grew large in size, emitting a familiar energy very clearly
Vegeta felt his heart pump much faster as his face itched with joy. His teeth grew, and his face slowly enlarged to make a snout. His body grew long strands of hair all over as it also grew and stretched. His cloths, unsurprisingly, also stretched to match his size as well
Once he finished growing, he roared with power as he was encased by a bright yellow light that lingered for a few seconds before disappearing
Vegeta slowly fell to the ground below, everyone observed the large ape closely. Unlike the normal Great Ape, Vegeta's form had yellow hair instead of brown, and it glowed its respective color as well
For some people, it was their first time seeing a Great Ape, and for others it was their second or third time
Vegeta observed himself as he felt his power. Luckily, when he landed he stomped on the empty street below, cracking the concrete
To his surprise, the form wasn't all too different from Super Saiyan 3. Sure it was just as powerful, maybe even a tad bit stronger. However the disadvantage was that he was large, and just as slow
The form, didn't feel powerful at all!
"Damnit! It's useless! Utterly useless!!" Vegeta raged, his voice booming loudly
"Damn...I thought the form would have more power than that." Goku said sadly. Although he couldn't compare his form from Vegeta's, it was clear that his wasn't the power up they needed
"I don't understand, this form should be stronger than Super Saiyan 3, what gives?" Gohan said out loud
"Because this is the primal power of the Great Ape with the power of a Super Saiyan 3." Vegeta said simply and emotionlessly
Everyone frowned at the revelation. It seems that the new form isn't what it's cut out to be
"Hey Vegeta, can you revert back?" Goku asked
"Of course! Those with royal blood are privileged with expert control over their Great Ape forms." He boasted as he concentrated
After a few seconds he finally found it within himself to forcefully revert back into his normal form
However something surprising happened. Instead of dropping in power, his ki skyrocketed. His body didn't slowly shrink from his Great Ape form as it should, but instead he was encased in a crimson light that slowly shrank in size, but not power
Everyone was astonished by this turn in events as the crimson light slowly died down
When it finished, Vegeta was left aghast as he felt his raw power. He was back to his usual size, however one noticeable difference being that he was more ape-like
His spandex above his waist all burned off due to the light show, as well as his armor, leaving him bare chested. Everything but his abs, neck and face had blood red fur, even his tail was colored red as well. His face had a red color just below his eyes, acting like and eyeliner. His hair had the same shape, however he had extra hair that all fell towards his back, and he even had two large strands of hair that sat at his shoulders
While everyone was taken aback by the form, Goku was the most surprised by the form. He could just feel the raw Saiyan energy coming from him. It was like a gate that opened to a whole world that he never knew about. Unlike his majestic form, Vegeta's form was very primal. It represented the raw power of Saiyans, so much so that Goku couldn't help but feel compelled to stare at it more
Vegeta was in the exact same boat as Kakarot. He could feel his Saiyan pride well up as the power just Oozed from him. The form felt tough, strong, and extremely powerful, like it could rival a god
But something inside Vegeta didn't like the form. The form itself had seemingly brought him back to his bare and charred roots as a Saiyan. Long ago he had forsaken his Saiyan pride for the sake of family, for it was his Saiyan pride that compelled him to destroy planets, to terminate entire races. And even more so, to torture Cell
Being in this form reminded him all too much of his past, one that he never thought he would return to in this sense. But fate seemingly brought him full circle
This form, felt bittersweet. It was a harsh reminder of what Vegeta truly was...a prideful Saiyan
Vegeta tried his best to ignore these clashing feelings, and instead smirked as he floated in the air while gripping his hand. Goku floated up to meet him up close
"So...you ready to go a few rounds?" Goku stated with a smirk of his own as he could feel his heart begin to pump
"Gladly!" Vegeta said as he took up his old fighting pose, Goku in turn took up the classic turtle school pose as well
The two stood still as the wind calmly blew, their hair flowing slowly with the light wind
Suddenly they used their raw speed to disappear and reappear in the middle, both with their hands outstretched
The two punched each other's faces with their opposite arms, both blows causing the very Earth to shake a little
The two dashed backwards only to dash forwards and begin two assaults that shook the Earth further
The two were blurs in the air as they gauged each other's power, and both seemed to be very equal
The close range fighting lasted for a full minute before they disappeared from everyone's sights
Just then, several burst of air were created as the two warriors would dash back and forth to clash at high speeds. Each explosion created a loud boom that caused everyone to cover their ears
The explosions only grew fiercer as they spread out more in the air until the whole sky was their battle grounds
A full minute passed before the two warriors abruptly stopped just in front of each other, their stops also caused the air to move violently
From their warm up they could tell that they were even, however being unable to sense Goku's energy was difficult for Vegeta
"So, you thinking what I'm thinking?" Goku said as Vegeta smirked once more
"We should move somewhere else." Vegeta suggested as Goku nodded in agreement
He put two fingers to his forehead as he floated forwards. He used his spare hand to touch Vegeta's shoulder
Goku and Vegeta soon teleported away, leaving the rest of the gang to finally take in the full extent of their shows
Goku and Vegeta both appeared in a familiar rocky landscape, full of yellow sandstone and red mountains littered around
"Huh, just like old times eh Vegeta?" Goku mentioned as Vegeta looked a little upset
"Yes...like old times." He said in a slightly saddened tone as Goku looked at him
"Hey what's wrong? Is it something I said?" He asked as Vegeta gripped his right hand
"This form...it's powerful alright. It just may be the true pinnacle of our primal power. This power can even rival yours, which is the power of a God with Saiyan blood." Vegeta said before sighing deeply
"But it reminds me all too well of my past. My arrogance, my ego, and especially my old pride." Vegeta confessed, which surprised Goku
"When I became what I am today, I decided to leave my pride behind, to try and create a new sense of pride that had nothing to do with myself nor my lineage, but instead my family." Vegeta continued as Goku listened in
"But this power...it is the embodiment of my past self, of my primal roots. This power is a cruel reminder of all the mistakes I have committed in the name of my Saiyan pride, all of which I deeply regret." Vegeta finished
Goku however, rubbed the back of his while chuckling lightly
"Wow, and I thought I was the only one who had a problem with my form." Goku said suddenly, which shocked Vegeta
"What do you mean? You don't have to deal with having a past full of mistakes." Vegeta said, however the other Saiyan sighed as well
"Yeah, I guess that's true. All of my life I've been protecting everyone from so many dangers, some of which were my fault to begin with." Goku said before looking a little upset as well, which confused Vegeta
"But I've never had to rely on them this much. I've always been able to reach new heights on my own, sometimes with support from everyone." Goku continued before staring at his hand
"But this power...it was just given to me. I didn't have to work for it, and I didn't do anything for it. It feels kinda cheap. Everyone had to get together and give me so much power, I can't thank anyone enough for it." Goku confessed
Vegeta was still in shock about what he heard, especially since Goku sounded so serious about it. He chuckled out loud
"So you really are a Saiyan, deep down." Vegeta said before hardening his expression
"But you aren't a true Saiyan. You are a pure hearted warrior who has been able to single handedly carry everyone and everything on your back for years, never asking anything in return." Vegeta stated like it was obvious, surprising Goku
"You should feel thankful. You have done so much for everyone here, that this form of gratitude was long overdue. So quit whining, because you deserve this form more than you realize." Vegeta lectured Goku, which truly shocked the warrior
All of that really was true, and Goku was surprised that it came from Vegeta of all people, he really has come a long way
Goku smiled as he looked at his hand again. This time he didn't see the form as something that was handed to him with no reason, but instead a gift that he will treasure more than almost anything
"...Thanks Vegeta, I really needed that." Goku said as the prince nodded
"And Vegeta, I also have something to say about your problem as well." He said as Vegeta nodded
"You aren't a bad person, in fact you're a good man. You've realized that you did something wrong, and you regret it, and you're trying to change." Goku stated
"But you don't have to change, you don't have to feel ashamed for being prideful Vegeta. You shouldn't see your pride as something that you have to throw away now, but something that can help you." Goku continued, which surprised Vegeta
"I should know, I've seen firsthand how far you've gone because of your pride, and you've become my rival because of it too. You shouldn't throw it away because you did something bad, but instead you can use it to do more than think about yourself. You can use it to protect everything, especially your family too." Goku finished, deeply surprising Vegeta
Goku's words resonated within Vegeta. Kakarot has always been a kind hearted man, which is something that Vegeta recognized long ago, and even grew to admire recently
So having Kakarot, his greatest rival, tell him that he can become better...that connected more with him than anything else
Vegeta smirked as he looked at his hands. The realization that Kakarot provided was something that he really needed, for a long time
"Thank you Kakarot." Vegeta said with a smirk as Goku returned his smirk as well
"So, are we gonna fight or not?" He asked as Vegeta smirked
"Yes." He said simply as he got into a charging position, while Goku did the same
"HAH!!!!" The two yelled as they charged their power to their full extent
As they yelled Goku's white aura grew brighter, while Vegeta's red aura grew brighter as well. At the same time, the clouds darkened as lightning brewed from within them
The two warriors charged their ki for two whole minutes before they stopped to admire their own power, Vegeta being the only one who can scale his power correctly
They got into their fighting stances once more and stood still for a few seconds before dashing forwards at Mach speeds
The two clashed fiercely as they punched, kicked, blocked and dodged at full power
This went on for a while before the two dashed backwards
Vegeta brought his hands together and shot a volley of ki blasts that Goku dodged and punched out of the way while flying
After a while Goku used his Instant Transmission to disappear and reappear above Vegeta. He used this opportunity to punch Vegeta's face, creating a yellow line of ki that Goku's fist followed, which was created using sheer power
Vegeta was taken by surprise and was promptly launched towards a mountain of rock
"Damnit, I couldn't sense him coming. I have to fight with my wits." Vegeta thought to himself as he recovered to see Kakarot flying towards him with his left fist ready to punch him
At the last second Vegeta was able to use his right fist to parry the punch, surprising Goku
"Flash Fist!!" He yelled as he quickly used his left arm to punch Goku in the gut as hard as he could, causing the Saiyan to cough up spit
Vegeta then brought his right hand to Goku's chest and quickly shot a wide yellow beam from his hand, sending the Saiyan away many feet
Vegeta took the opportunity to bring both hands behind his head and quickly charge a large blue ball of ki that was similar to his Big Bang attack
He threw it after Goku, however the Saiyan was able to recover in the air and punch the ball of ki violently, causing it to explode violently like a ball of plasma. Goku's gi was torn to shreds, leaving his shirt as they only thing covering his chest
"I let my guard down!" Goku said to himself
Vegeta dashed after Goku and brought a high kick towards the Saiyan. However Goku managed to block the strike and grab a hold of Vegeta's leg before spinning violently
Goku then threw Vegeta away before teleporting to punch him in another direction
Goku teleported again to kick Vegeta to the ground, and teleported once more to send a high kick after Vegeta
However the prince smirked as he recovered and grabbed the base of Goku's leg, and used his flight to fly quickly towards the ground
Once he reached the ground he slammed Goku's body down and stood over him with his right hand outstretched
"Big Bang Attack!!" He exclaimed as he shot a big blue ball of ki at Goku, causing the ball to explode
The explosion created a large and wide hole in the ground with a large cloud of dust over it
Vegeta looked around for any sign of Goku, but just then there was a yell a few feet in front of him, followed by a very strong gust of ki powered wind that instantly blew away the dust, as well as pushing Vegeta back
The source of the yell was Goku, with his blue undershirt gone and his gi now filthy
He quickly took the opportunity to dash after Vegeta and punch his gut, before quickly getting behind him without turning around
Goku then kicked Vegeta's back with his right leg before teleporting in front of him and punching his face, causing him to be sent many feet away
"Kamehame...HA!!" Goku yelled as he charged up his signature move and shot it after Vegeta
Vegeta on the other hand, recovered and saw the blue beam fly after him
"Galick Gun!!" He yelled quickly as he shot a purple beam that met Goku's blue beam, causing the two attacks to stop in the middle
The struggle lasted for a full minute before the two released their beams, only to shot two volleys of yellow ki blasts after each other. The two assaults clashed violently against each other causing clouds of dust to appear after every explosion
This lasted for many minutes before the two stopped, by this point there was a thick fog of yellow dust between both warriors
The two dashed straight after each other inside the dust, and when they saw each other they both delivered a hard punch that met the other, causing all of the dust to be blown away once more
However something had happened in the middle of that. Something that caused both Goku and Vegeta to gasp
The two had involuntarily reverted into their Super Saiyan forms. Goku's hair and tail went back to their original colors, as well as his eyes and eyebrows too. Vegeta's fur was all gone, his tail was back to its original color, and his excess hair was gone, as well as his eyeliner
But the most notable detail was that Vegeta's power didn't seem to fall, in fact it had stayed relatively the same. Goku's power was also back, and it was equal to Vegeta's power as well
"What the? What happened?" Goku exclaimed as he could feel his power once more, and he could see his yellow aura as well
Vegeta also realized that the hair over his shoulders was gone, and his yellow aura was back as well
"Hm...it seems we might have absorbed the power of our forms, that's the only explanation for it." He stated as he tried to grab the hair over his shoulders, only to grab air instead
"Wow, I didn't think that I had that much power behind me." Goku exclaimed as he felt his power as well
The two stood there silently for a while as they took in the situation. Once they did Vegeta smirked
"There's only one way to finish this." Vegeta said simply as Goku returned the smirk
The two nodded in silent agreement as they flew a ways away from each other
Right when the two were roughly a mile away, they turned to face each other
Vegeta held his hands together in front of him as a small yellow ball grew to life. Meanwhile Goku cupped his hands to his sides as a small blue ball grew to life as well
"Ka...me...ha...me!!/Final!!!" The two said as they stretched the syllables of their attacks, while their attacks grew large in size
"HHAAAA!!!!/FLASH!!!" Both Saiyans yelled as they launched their attacks towards each other
Once the beams met, the ground below their interception was slowly destroyed as the raw energy of the attacks was able to reach the ground
Neither Goku nor Vegeta let up in their attacks as they poured all of their remaining energy into their attacks, keen on seeing who wins
Time inched by in suspense as the attacks shook the Earth, causing everyone worldwide to panic at the anomaly
Several minutes went by as the two Saiyans began to slowly decline in strength and stamina
It took a while, but once the warriors tired out they let go of their beams, as well as their Super Saiyan forms
The two huffed heavily for a full minute before smiling to themselves. The power, the excitement! This is something that wasn't available before, but with their new forms the two were able to reach brand new heights
And with this power they can protect what is dear to them, with this power they can defeat any threat that comes their way
Goku slowly flew towards Vegeta while smiling. When he reached him he held two fingers over his forehead and his right hand out
"We should get back now." Goku suggested as Vegeta nodded
Goku placed his hand over Vegeta's shoulder once more, and teleported away once more
When Goku and Vegeta reappeared, they saw the gang stop what they were doing to look over at them. Everyone was startled to see both rivals in such poor condition
"Holy crap! What happened to you two?!" Krillin exclaimed as everyone surrounded the two, who seemed to smile proudly
"We had a little battle." Goku said simply, almost causing Vegeta to laugh
"Little!?!? You almost blew up the planet!! What were you thinking!" Chi-Chi exclaimed with great shock as she could easily recall the ground shaking several times nonstop
"Looks like ya'll had lots of fun out there." 13 commented with a chuckle
"Such power! You made the Earth shake so much!" Chocolata exclaimed with surprise
"Don't you two know how to hold back?" Piccolo said with a hint of anger, the constant shaking was getting annoying
"That was awesome!!" Kid Trunks exclaimed loudly, as he and Goten ran around with glee
As everyone made their comments, Goku and Vegeta never stopped smiling
The two looked at each other and bumped their knuckles together, feeling proud of their fight
Bonus Bit: Saiyan Tails
A few days had passed since Turles and Zangya left, and Goku and Vegeta had their fight. In that time the Saiyans and Hybrids trained together
Their training was instructed by none other than Vegeta, being the only one who had knowledge of Saiyan tails
Everyone was gathered in the Gravity Room. Vegeta stood tall, with his tail wrapped around his waist. He also wore a new outfit, one that he used often due to his new form making his spandex a little uncomfortable
He had black leather pants with a yellow belt. His boots were the same as always, only this time they were a very light shade of purple, and they had straps on them that made the design more complex. He also wore a simple blood red tank top, and fingerless gloves that had the same shade of purple as the boots
"Alright, your training is coming along well. But you must get more accustomed to your tails. If you don't, then you'll surely lose them. They're the source of your power, but if you don't take care of them, then they'll become a liability." Vegeta lectured everyone, all of which were sitting crisscross on the floor in front of him
"Yeah right. I won't let anyone sneak up on me!!" Kid Trunks exclaimed with arrogance
Just then Vegeta disappeared and appeared standing behind Trunks. His tail, which was purple, was outstretched on the floor
Vegeta simply stepped on the tail, causing an extreme pain to immediately shoot through Trunks, freezing him stiff
Vegeta kept his foot on his son's tail before taking it off of him. When he did Trunks jerked his tail to his hands so that he could caress it
"Watch your mouth, because you're the one who's the most vulnerable." Vegeta stated as he walked back to the front of the room
"Now, we're going back to endurance training for today." Vegeta said as everyone groaned as they stood up
"You know what to do. Grip your tails as hard as you can." Vegeta stated as he brought his own tail to his right hand. He gripped with with all of his strength, causing a pain to shoot through him. However it wasn't an extreme pain, unlike when he was young
Everyone gripped their tails, garnering a mix of results
Goku was the best out of everyone, being able to grip his tail and feel minimal pain. Behind him was Gohan, who had some trouble with his tail
Future Trunks had lots of difficulty with his tail, since he never had a tail before. The shooting pain was something he could never get used to. It was like all of his nerves were on fire!
Goten and Kid Trunks were the worst off. Their legs wobbled and their knees buckled. However through all of that they still reluctantly gripped their tails
The class gripped their tails for a few minutes before Vegeta let go of his tail
"Stop." Vegeta ordered as everyone stopped as well
Goku, Gohan and Future Trunks were able to stop easily. However Goten and Kid Trunks fell to the floor in pain as they huffed
"Goten, Trunks! Get back up and wrap your tails around your waists unless you want me to step on them again!!" Vegeta barked as both kids reluctantly got up and wrapped their tails around themselves as told
"This isn't fair...you guys are adults! We're just kids!" Goten exclaimed
"No whining, unless you want to do 100 push-ups with your tails again." Vegeta warned as both kids shook at the very memory
"Now, on to the next part, more endurance training." Vegeta said as he punched his fists together, with his tail in the middle of the fists. He got a sharp pain all over his body
"I hate this part..." Gohan said as he prepared his tail, along with everyone else
After a second everyone punched their own tails. The adults were fine for the most part, however the kids fell to the floor tiredly
"Ah...ah...can we get a break..?" Kid Trunks said through his pain, it was just too much to bare
Vegeta sighed deeply as he put his right hand over his face in both disappointment and annoyance
