Hi not much to say except I hope that you enjoy the chapter.
They Grow Up So Fast
Zangya was standing in front of Trunks and the others.
"Why is she asking for Kibito of all people?" Trunks was confused.
"Not too sure, she didn't really explain to me, just to bring him in for awhile." She said. "I don't know what that girl."
Lazuli wasn't sure either she looked to Trunks.
"I guess we can make that happen, it's not like she's going against the rules we set." Lazuli wondered what she planned.
Trunks nodded not sure what to expect, he called on the Supreme to ask for his assistant.

Hyperbolic Time Chamber
Iolite threw punches and kicks in the air.
Strangely she wasn't turning into Super Saiyan 3, as if she knew that it would be pointless.
For now, she believes it is, as it does feel like her body was tearing itself apart.
So she has a new solution.
The door to the hyperbolic time chamber opened.
Once it did, Iolite stopped and turned.
It was a red elderly man with long white hair. "Excuse me, miss Iolite, you called for my aid?"
The young woman smiled as her fell on her shoulders. She walked over to the Kai.
"Kibito, thank you for coming to meet me." She said politely.
The elder appreciated the politeness though he still felt strange being here, only ever speaking to her as needed.
"It is no trouble, but why am I here?"
The Saiyan felt awkward asking this, she wasn't sure if this would work or if she was wasting his time.
"I need your help to become stronger." Iolite stated.
Kibito looked surprised and almost fell down.
"My help?" He grunted. "Um, I'd be happy to… however my power is minuscule compared to yours, your normal state would destroy me, I don't think I can assist you."
Truly it was astounding at how far these mortals have come. Years ago, they had grown far above the Supreme Kai with their transformations. Now, even in base they far outpower the Kais, including Trunks's daughter.
"Maybe not." Iolite looked down hoping that she was right. "But it's not your power I need, if you can I need you to teach me something while your here, with it i think I can manage something."
Kibito was confused hearing her but was grateful that he didn't have to try to survive a sparring session with the young woman.
"What would that be?"
Iolite asked, hoping that she was right.

The Lookout
Trunks crossed his arms looking at the entrance to the hyperbolic Time chamber, he wondered why she needed Kibito of all people.
No disrespect intended, but he couldn't figure out what she would gain from him.
"Trunks"
He turned to his wife.
"Come on, you can't wait here all day." She pulled on his arm.
Trunks followed along.
"Aren't you worried?"
She turned to him and shrugged.
"Our girl needs the training anyway, Dende said that he can't feel anything off about her energy right now." Lazuli explained. "Besides, Kibito is in there with her, if anything goes wrong he can get her out, now come on, let's let her train in peace."
Trunks realized that she was right, she needed to train either way, maybe he shouldn't worry so much.
"Besides, I have something in mind to keep us occupied."
The Half Saiyan wondered what she was talking about exactly.

Outside on the lookout
Zangya and Lazuli stood across from their husbands.
"Let's see how much we improved." Lazuli placed a hand on her ip.
"Don't go easy on us boys." Zangya gestured Lapis to attack her.
Lapis squeezed his knuckles and turned to the half Saiyan.
"Good luck, I'm sure my sis is going to enjoy this more than she should."
Trunks eyed his wife before glancing at Zangya.
"The same can be said about yours." Just then his hair spiked up, with blue lightning spread over his golden Aura.
Lapis eyed Zangya, even in her Hera transformation she was more or less equal to him without Kaioken. He wanted to see how well he'd do against her as he is.
He dashed towards her and threw a punch.
Not even transformed Zangya swayed her head fast enough to dodge.
He then threw a kick aimed at her side.
Zangya leaned back and let the leg hit over pass over her.
She then stood back up with a grin.
"Try harder honey." She teased before kicking him across the face.
Lapis flew past the lookout and caught him self in mid air.
He was surprised, he didn't expect her to improve like that without transforming. A light shade of red surrounded him, he'll have to use Kaioken right now.
Trunks in his Super Saiyan 2 raced towards Lazuli throwing punches and kicks at her. Like Iolite, his second Super Saiyan was on par with hers without Kaioken, at least it used to.
Lazuli was only using one hand to block each strike, still standing one place.
"Seems like Lapis is rubbing off on you, it's not like you to play games darling." She said still grinning.
Trunks stopped as his last fist failed.
"I knew you'd be beyond this level, but I wanted to se for myself." He then closed his eyes, his hair turned back to lavender and remained spike, a white Aura spread around him and blue lightning.
Lazuli remained smiling as red Aura started to spread across her body.
Lapis was covered in cuts and bruises, he was on one knee looking up at his wife.
Zangya had to transform to match whatever level of Kaioken this was. "So what level is this?"
"Times 5." Lapis struggled as he stood and grunted. "Let's try times 10."
The two clashed again, though this time Lapis seemed to be holding his own this time.
Zangya grunted as she had to block with both arms.
He then finished the fight with a knee into her stomach.
This forced the new and improved Zangya on the ground.
Lapis smiled as he looked down at her. "Not bad, I have to use times 10 to beat you now."
Zangya chuckled, which confused him. A violet Aura surrounded her. "Oh my love, do you think after a year of training with someone equal to you, I wouldn't have something to counter." She stood up covered in her purple aura.
"I call this Phsycho State."
Lapis was impressed, but he had one comment. "That's all well and good, but your power's only increased by half, it's a little less than what I have."
Zangya threw a fist.
The Android rose his arm to block.
And his eyes widened as his arm was pushed to the side. His pupils shook as his Kaioken started fluctuating.
Zangya smiled and kicked across his face.
Lapis at times 10 Kaioken sen to the side and hit the edge of the Lookout.
The android stood up with blood down his lip.
Zangya walked towards him with a smirk. "You were saying dear?"
"Huh" Lapis was confused, there was more to this Psycho State than just power.
On the otherwise Trunks and Lazuli were still sparring.
Now his wife had to use her own Kaioken, but jugding from how she wasn't so stressed made him think she wasn't at her max.
Trunks threw various punches and kicks at his wife.
Lazuli blocked every strike with little to no effort, clearly maxed or not she still surpassed him with Kaioken.
She threw a kick at his side.
Trunks rose an arm to block the kick, the strike, he grimaced from the impact.
Once she pulled her leg back she looked concern.
"You alright, I tried to hold back with that."
Trunks chuckled. "Hold back? That's not like you, so tell me what level of Kaioken is this?"
She grinned as she played with her hair. "Times 7."
Trunks couldn't believe this, she was overwhelming him with only two thirds of her max.
"Don't be so surprised." She eyed Zangya who was putting Lapis on the defensive. "I had a good training partner, that technique of hers is monstrous, if she had that when we met her, we all would've been killed."
The husbands sparred with their wives, and it ended with the women without any damage. But Trunks and Lapis clearly were no match for them.
"Heh, don't be comfortable." Lapis said as he held his arm. "Just wait till we get our turn."
Zangya only smiled and kissed her husband. "I can't wait for you to punish me."
That made him roll his eyes, though he did blush lightly hearing that.
Lazuli helped Trunks up before grinning at him.
"I don't know, I could get used to this, protecting my dear husband."
Trunks chuckled lightly. "Sorry but it won't last long." He then looked to Zangya. "Still, this improvement is amazing, I think either one of you could have beaten the past Androids on your own, without your max, before their fusions that is."
17 and 18 had gotten so strong it pushed him to use his Ultimate Form to fight back. He would have destroyed them if they hadn't attempted to destroy the Earth.
"Speaking of" Lapis interjected. "What about fusion, you haven't mentioned it at all since this mess started."
Surely after they trained in the time chamber their fusions will be more than enough for both Super Androids.
"No" He responded. "Fusion is too unreliable, we split in less than half an hour, imagine if we defused before we could finish our battles. We should only use it as a last resort."
If Super 17 wasn't so damaged he would've annihilated them.
"I'm sure I can defuse them anyway." Zangya said holding up her hand showing Psycho Threads, remembering how she defused Super 17 and 18. "How's Bulma doing with the doubles?"
Another reason why they didn't want to resort to fusion. It might not be usable considering what their doing.
"She's making progress, as long as they don't attack they should be ready before we begin the fight."
That and also another project that his mother had worked on for him. He's not sure about the outcome, but he knows that it was an advantage that he couldn't miss.
He stared at the hyperbolic time chamber wondering about Iolite.
A few hours later, Trunks was about to go to sleep with Lazuli waiting in the guest room in the lookout when they saw Kibito out of the time chamber.
"Kibito" Trunks greeted him. "Eveyrthing alright? How was Iolite?"
The Kai smiled. "I think you will be surprised tomorrow, your daughter truly is something."
He said simply before vanishing.
Trunks was confused wondering what did Kibito being in there do for her? It had been 12 hours since Iolite was inside, meaning that it was six months for her. Just what was she up to?

Dr. Gero's Timeline
Cell in his new form stood in a glass chamber, he was covered in green liquid similar to what had grown him before he had his Imperfect Form.
Outside were five Dr. Geros, four of them were typing on a console, one was looking at him through the glass.
"This treatment will enforce your cells to evolve even further, it will propel fuse them increasing your power even more than that." He explained. "After this, it will be time, to absorb 17 and 18. Will you be ready Cell?"
Cell thought of that, the productive day he had. Taking in, Frieza's Soldiers, Broly, Bojack, and Hirudegarn into him has made him far above anything he thought possible, all before absorbing 17 and 18.
Also, both of these Androids are much, much stronger than the ones his familiar with.
"I will be, thank you Doctor."
Dr. Gero nodded as he looked over the form.
Behind him the door opened.
"Sir, they are ready." Android 41 said bowing down to him.
Two more figures walked inside the lab.
Dr. Gero turned and smiled.
"Ah yes you two."
One was a familiar teal skinned woman with long orange hair wearing a white outfit and a purple sash down her pant leg.
Another was a short young man with spiker black hair slanted to the left, with a brown monkey like tail, wearing white armor with orange patches.
"Greetings Doctor." Zangya spoke while bowing. "Android 100 at your service."
Tarble bowed down as well. "Android 101 ready."
Dr. Gero smiled at his newest creations. "Ah, you two came out nicely, be ready, I will require your services soon."
Just then a portal opened showing his associate.
"Towa" Dr. Gero acknowledged her. "The specimens are ready." He turned to his newest Androids.
She looked to Zangya and Tarble who looked back with void expressions.
"I'll bring them to my 21 right away." She tapped her staff.
Portals opened beneath their feet and took them away to be powered up the same way 17 and 18 had.
Towa turned to see Cell still inside. "Now we have two new Androids at our side, 16, 21, and my own project." She said thinking of Tapion merged with Hirudegarn. "And of course Cell, I say we have the advantage here."
"Your not getting 17 and 18 involved in the final battle?" Dr. Gero asked.
"Of course not, their ready to destroy them, not to mention they can undo their fusions so why waste time on them?"
Dr. Gero agreed, those fools would likely end up destroyed, not to mention that would be what their expecting. It would be better to have them just be absorbed and done with.
Now that things are coming to a head the Doctor thought of disposing of Towa, now, he doubts whatever she's done with Tapion would be worth much.
But she claimed that her magic was keeping this timeline hidden allowing them to be unnoticed by the gods, if she undoes it or if this magic breaks down after she dies, they may find Cell before his progress is complete.
That maybe the end of his empire.
"Soon, three days and Cell will be ready." He grinned as he looked at his creation. The pinnacle of his creations will be born soon.

Trunks's Timeline
The Z-fighters waited in front of the hyperbolic time chamber.
Trunks looked to Dende. "You've watched her right? How was she."
"Iolite is in perfect health, and from what I've seen I think you'll be happy with what she has to show."
Lazuli glanced at Trunks before looking at Dende. "Kibito said the same thing last night, what do you mean?"
"Sorry, Iolite kind of made us promise not to tell you."
That made Trunks panic a bit.
"Didn't you say you'd tell us if she put herself in danger?"
"Yes, and I assure you she was capable of keeping herself safe, she was never in danger." Dende stated. "She also promised me not to tell you what she did inside the chamber."
They were about to question him further when the door opened.
Iolite stepped out now a few inches taller matching her father's height, her green jacket having a couple holes on her arm area, her pants was missing the bottom of the left pant leg.
"Iolite" Trunks walked up to her to see now she matched his height. "You've grown."
"Literally" Lazuli said looking up at her daughter. "Guess you were still growing."
The young woman smiled before hugging her parents after not seeing them for a year.
"Oh my" Zangya said looking up at her neice. "Now your tall and fair, the boys will be all over you."
Trunks couldn't help but glare at that for a moment.
Lazuli chuckled lightly while Iolite seemed to blush at that.
Lapis seemed focused on something else. "There's not a bruise on you, you sure you've been training."
The young woman looked at her uncle before smiling.
"Trust me uncle, I think, I've done it." She turned to her father and smiled. "Come on dad, let's see if I can join you now."
Trunks was suprised by the amount of confidence, but nodded.
It was time to see if she was ready, he hoped in his heart that she wasn't, but something, perhaps his Saiyan side hoped to see her results.
XXX
Trunks stood across from Iolite on the lookout.
She stared at her father before sighing. It was time, she shook off her nervousness and immediately powered up, her hair spiked up showing Super Saiyan.
Just then her father seemed suprised, this energy it was quite a bit beyond his first transformation.
And then she started sparking lightning, showing she was at the second stage.
Lazuli was shocked at the amount of energy she was putting out. "Like I thought, before i entered the time chamber I would've needed Kaioken to compete with her."
Her father was a bit suprised seeing that, he expected progress but not to this degree.
"So dad." Iolite stated. "What do you think?"
Trunks was more than a little bit impressed at this. He smirked with pride seeing her rise to these heights.
"Good, but I don't think you can join, the deal was you can fight me with this." His hair spiked as if he were Super Saiyan showing spiked lavender hair.
It let out a gust of wind towards her.
Iolite was pushed back lightly by the power up, she can feel it, her power may surpass his second transformation, but as she is she can't hold a candle to him now.
"Sorry Iolite but I think you know what happens now, your going to wait with-"
"Wait" His daughter said. "Trust me dad, this isn't all I have to show you."
Trunks realized what she was trying to do, and remembered the process he went through when he attempted the transformation.
"Don't" He warned. "I told you the form has different effects in the living world, don't try it."
Iolite smiled at him. "Relax dad, my training with Kibito really helped with it."
That suprised him as well as everyone watching.
"Kibito, what could he have done?" Trunks asked.
Before Iolite answered she let out a scream, that sounded more primal.
The lookout shook from the weight of her Ki
As did the planet tremble from her scream.
Her golden aura glowed brighter and brighter over the whole lookout.
Mr. Popo and Dende shook as the lookout was breaking.
Just then Lapis created a force field around the group to prevent them from falling off the lookout.
Iolite's hair started to grow and extend in spikes. Her started reaching down her back.
Trunks was ready to knock her out so she wouldn't do anything lethal to her like he did. But to his surprise her energy was still rising, and he can't sense anything fatal.
This was nothing like his attempt all those years ago after after he came back after Daburack was defeated, he had nearly been killed and decided to try and find an alternative, which he found in his Ultimate Form.
Her energy was rising more and more, still no signs of injuring her body.
"Aaah!" Her golden Aura spread and her hair reached past her back with long spiker strands.
Finally her transformation had settled.
Iolite stood tall, her long spiker hair was down her back, her eyebrows now gone and her whole body glowing gold as if it were made of life.
Shorz was beyond excited seeing his sister in this form, he loved the look of it in otherworld, but seeing her do it was something else.
Lazuli couldn't believe what she was seeing, this was the transformation Trunks had attempted, only to nearly get himself killed before achieving it.
Trunks can sense her immense energy and eyed her up and down.
"Iolite, how did you this?" He asked but then he thought of Kibito. "Wait, did you have Kibito help you by healing you from the strain? But he would've told me if anything fatal happened to you, and it's fatal to even to even get close to finishing the form in the living realm."
Iolite chuckled hearing that.
"I know, and if that happened, the deal would've been over and I would've been over, and I would have to be on the sidelines." She gripped her fists tightly thinking of when she had to wait for the battle to end, her family risking their lives while she sat and waited! She grit her teeth in anger but she calmed herself to continue her explanations. "The first time I tried this, I could feel something wrong, my bones felt like their were being crushed by the overwhelming energy, my heart paced faster and faster as if I overtrained, I couldn't just train and get stronger, I needed something else to help me tame the form."
Trunks listened to the conversation and realized something. Wait, she didn't get Kibito to help she-
"But more on that later." Iolite said smirking before pointing at her father. "Come on dad, let me show you that I'm not just a kid that needs to be protected!"
Trunks can hear his father from her, looks like that little time he had with her triggered something for her.
"Fine, but if anything-"
"If anything fatal happens, I'm out, I got it." Iolite interrupted before taking on her own fighting stance, her left arm down by her waist, her right arm raised over her chest area. "Now come on, I'm ready."
Trunks took on his own, one arm raised forward with two fingers pointed up showing his palm, his other arm behind his waist.
"Get em sis!" Shorz yelled.
"Your rooting against your dad?" Joyaku asked.
"Not against, I just want to see her give him a good fight, don't you?"
The half Hera shrugged his shoulders and watched.
Father and daughter stood across from the other as if wanting to look for a weak point.
But for Trunks he was doing something different, he was sensing her energy, trying to see if it was harming her. But nothing, it didn't seem to harm her.
"Guess I'll go first!" Iolite stepped off and raced towards her father.
Trunks decided to focus on defending to see how she was faring to the strain of the third form.
As soon as she was in the right distance she swung her elbow to his face.
Trunks rose an arm to block it, grunting as it harmed him to block.
She then threw a punch for his face.
Her father caught it with great effort.
Iolite then rose her knee for his gut.
Trunks lowered his arms to block, once the knee landed it actually sent him into the air.
The half Saiyan couldn't believe the force of those strikes, he imagined that Kibito wasn't exactly a sparring partner, so she achieved this power on her own.
"Stop defending!" Iolite yelled as she raced upward and slammed a kick for his midsection.
He blocked again and it sent him back.
She again charged at him. "Just admit" Iolite threw a kick across his head, again he blocked it. "that I" She then kicked his midsection which he barely blocked and was sent back once again. Finally she fired a powerful wave of yellow energy. "can fight with you!"
Trunks moved up to evade the blast he turned to see that she vanished, he sensed her energy above, he looked up.
Iolite already had her hands over her head, gripping together. She then slammed them down on her father's head.
"Gah!" He was suprised by the hit and sent downward.
The Saiyan was about to stop himself but then Iolite appeared flying right in front of him, she then kicked across his head, forcing his body to be horizontal, she then rose her knee up his back, she pulled it back and rose her other leg into a rising kick up his back.
Her father was sent back upward.
And Iolite wasn't done, she flew up, she had and angry look on her face. Still he was refusing to fight back, he still saw her as a helpless little girl like she was against Baby. No more, she was going to prove to him once and for all that she was a capable warrior worthy of fighting by her family's side.
Trunks finally caught himself in midair, he was covered in bruises and blood all over.
Iolite floated in front of him with a hand on her hip similar to how her mother would.
"You gonna fight back or not dad?" She asked. "If your not, then just admit I can fight with you guys.
He had one eye opened, she hasn't slowed down once, and her energy doesn't seem to be decrasing. She was hurting him in his Ultimate Form, something she couldn't do before the time chamber. And shouldn't be able to do in her second form.
"I don't see any strain." Trunks commented. "How are you doing this, you couldn't have gotten to this without your life force dropping and Dende would have warned me."
Iolite was annoyed that her father kept questioning her achievement. She only rose a hand. "Fight me, and then I'll tell you."
Trunks realized that she wasn't going to say anything unless she got it out of her. Besides, he needed to see how well she can handle an actual fight instead of blocking. "Fine Iolite, but know this, if your form drops then the deal is over."
Iolite smirked in a way that would've made her grandfather proud. "Just as long as you finally start fighting me."
Trunks powered up before he finally flew to his daughter intent on attacking.
Iolite flew forward intending on doing the same.
Father and daughter clashed fists once they met in the middle, the impact was enough to shake the ground miles beneath them.
They both then entered a clash of punches and kicks.
Iolite tried to do a swift chop for his side.
But Trunks blocked and threw a straight.
His daughter caught in her hand and threw kick to his side.
Again Trunks caught it but then she slammed her head into his face making his head rear back.
She pulled back an arm intent on gut punching him.
But her father rose his leg kicking his daughter's chin upwards.
He then threw a fist into her stomach, grabbed her shoulders before kneeing her face, and ending the combo with a shoulder bash into her stomach.
This forced her back but she caught herself mid air and smiled. Finally, her father was actually taking her seriously.
Trunks decided to try his hand at energy attacks, he aimed his hands forward, then rose them and threw them forward again.
Iolite mimicked her fathers movement.
"Burning attack!" Father and daughter yelled at the same time, their orange fiery attacks met in the middle pushing each other back.
Their attacks pushed into each other.
Trunks actually tried his best to push against his daughter's identical technique. Meanwhile Iolite seemed more stressed as she screamed.
Their blasts detonated, turning into an explosion that can be seen from space.
When the smoke of their attack Trunks was shown flying with a neutral expression.
But Iolite showed that she was panting, finally she had shown some strain.
'That decides it, we've only been fighting for a short time and already she's exhausted, it's clear that she can't join us.'
Before Trunks could say any of this outside, she placed her hand on her shoulder, she glowed more golden for a moment, before grinning and raising a fist.
"What the, just now she seemed-"
Iolite dashed at her father as if she wasn't tired at all.
Trunks blocked a fist to his face.
And his daughter kicked at his left leg, forcing him to tilt, she then threw a palm strike across his face, and another palm up his face. She then rose her left hand and fired Ki up close to his stomach.
Trunks was flung back from the short combo and rose his hands. "Finish Buster!"
Iolite merely kicked the energy blast upward.
Her father was already right in front and punched across her face. He then rose a leg kicking at her side, he then threw a left straight punch to her face.
The young woman was forced forward but caught herself mid air. She looked forward to see him missing, she sensed where he was and flew back as he tried to kick upward, he was upside down with his arms raised again.
"Masenko-Ha!" He fired it close to her face.
But she reacted accordingly and leaned back.
Trunks took advantage of this and slammed an elbow down her abdomen.
Iolite was sent downward and stopped herself, again she started panting.
The half Saiyan would've noted that but instead he watched.
Iolite put a hand on her shoulder, and glowed. Once it faded she was shown to be less strained.
Trunks couldn't believe it, she can heal herself? Kibito, he taught her how to heal?
Iolite roared as she dashed upward determined to continue the fight.
Her father did the same deciding once and for all if she was ready.
As they clashed again, Iolite landed a vicious punch across his face, she landed another on the other side.
Trunks recovered and tried to throw an elbow.
But Iolite aimed a finger on each hand down his legs, and fired energy beams at his legs.
This forced her father to be stunned from having his legs struck.
She took advantage of the opening and threw fist into his stomach.
Trunks's body flew until it crashed into a massive and thankfully uninhabited mountain. It began to crumble and fall on top of him.
The half Saiyan pushed the boulders aside as he stood up, he panted, it was official his daughter had caught up with him after only one year in the time chamber.
Iolite landed not far in front of him placing a hand on her shoulder, she glowed and again she seemed to be ready to fight.
Trunks looked at her, she truly was willing to keep going and it wasn't just stubbornness, she could keep going.
"So, Kibito, he taught you his healing technique."
Iolite nodded. "That's right, like I said, trying Super Saiyan 3 strained me to the point where I knew if I tried the form, I wouldn't be able to move my body. I couldn't just have Dende heal me over and over, it's not like we can afford to take him or Kibito with us, we'd need to protect them so I decided I had to learn it for myself if I wanted to join you guys."
She remembered back in the time chamber.
XXX
First she would do her usual physical training.
Then she would study under Kibito learning the healing arts.
"Focus on where the damage is the most, focus your energy to your body down to the cellular level, and then gently close it."
Iolite would listen but more weeks she couldn't get her wounds to heal until eventually she noticed that she was able to heal minor cuts and bruises.
"Good, remember you must be aware of whoever your healing and apply the energy gently, do not force it, doing so would not only decrease your energy but possibly make the wounds open."
She nodded but wasn't satisfied.
"Patents is key for this technique, you will need to accept that this isn't like your explosive waves you enjoy." Kibito explained.
Iolite growled but went along with it.
After six months of doing physical training she was able to finally heal actual wounds, and restore her stamina.
"Very good." Kibito smiled. "Remember, never force you're healing and you will use little energy, I believe that's the most I can teach you."
Iolite smiled back at him before politely bowing. "Thank you Master Kibito."
The older Kai bowed in return, never having the pleasure of teaching another his healing technique.
'Finally after I learned how to heal it was time to test out my theory, I finally got back to attempting Super Saiyan 3.'
Iolite screamed as her hair slowly grew long and blue lightning spread across her body.
'For the first time I actually pushed forward and was able to obtain Super Saiyan 3.'
She had the long spiker hair and only stood tall for a few seconds.
Then she dropped to her knees.
'Just like I thought it was too much of a strain on my body to keep for long, if I stayed in it I knew that it would be fatal and you would make sure I would stay out of the fight. I knew my only hope was to learn Kibito's ability.'
Iolite placed a hand on her shoulder and closed her wounds. She managed to stand up, but she grimaced.
'At first with healing it only slowed down the strain, but it was fine, I knew it was part of the process, I trained with Super Saiyan 3 for the first time putting my body at the brink of exhaustion, and then heal myself after words.'
Iolite was on the ground covered in sweat still in her third form. She healed herself once again gently applying her Ki as Kibito taught her. And now after two months of this tedious progress, she can feel it, her body didn't feel strained at all.
'It took a long time, but eventually my body was starting to adjust to the form, I didn't even need to heal at the start of the transformation anymore, I was able to train longer and only had to heal a few times.'
XXX
Iolite rose a hand and clenched her fists.
"I'll admit it isn't perfect, I do have to heal when I push myself, but it's now really quick, too fast for an opponent to take advantage of, as you saw."
Trunks heard the whole story and was flabbergasted.
Kibito's healing, he always assumed it was an exclusive power for a few races, like how Dende's healing is only something the Dragon Clan of Namekiens can perform. But Iolite decided to try it for herself and it paid off.
"You, you thought of this on your own?" Trunks asked.
Iolite nodded before getting into her combat stance. "That's right, now come on dad, let's keep going."
Trunks eyed his daughter for a moment, he can still see the little girl he swore to protect at all costs. But now he can recognize that she was truly a warrior, someone capable of holding their own in the universe.
He smiled before his hair became relaxed.
That suprised Iolite. "What are you doing? Let's keep going, I still need to show you everything I have."
"No, I've seen enough." Trunks said smiling. "Iolite, you did something I couldn't." He said walking forward.
Iolite watched as her father put a hand on her shoulder.
"I gave up on the form because I saw it as impractical." He admitted. "But you, you found a way to tame it, make it your own. You didn't need the Elder Kai to unleash your potential like I did, I always see you as my little girl, someone I want to ensure a safe future that I couldn't have growing up. That's why I wanted to keep you out of this, I'm sorry that i couldn't see it, but you're worthy of fighting alongside us Iolite."
Iolite's eyes widened hearing her father's words, her form dropped reverting to her long lavender hair. She smiled at him and closed his eyes,
"Thanks dad." But then she glared. "But can you please give me an actual fight next time?"
Trunks chuckled. "Of course."
"Trunks! Iolite!"
Lazuli flew in and looked at the two. "This was amazing, you've come along way Iolite."
She smiled at her mother before smiling. "Thanks mom."
"Iolite!"
Shorz flew to her and smiled looking up at her. "That was awesome! Can you teach me the form? Please! Please!"
She ruffled her brother's hair smiling.
"Look at you little gem." Zangya descended down with Lapis. "I told you, you could do it."
Lapis scratched the back of his head. "Sorry to doubt you kid."
Iolite smiled at her family and squeezed her fists. She had done, it she had proven that she was ready.
'Get ready Uncle 16, I'm coming to take you home!'

An Unknown Area
16 was standing tall waiting by Android 21 who was looking at a message from Towa on the screen.
"Have the new Androids ready by then." Towa explained. "Once Cell is ready, he will take the brats into his own."
21 nodded looking forward to what was to come. "Poor 17 and 18, it's shame they lost their chance to shine."
The screen faded leaving 21 with 16.
Android 21 stared up at 16 who seemed to be staring off into space.
"Oh, mommy's happy to have you here, I hope your looking forward to play with your friends again, it's only a few days, and remember to play for keeps." 21 grinned with a toothy expression.
16 did not respond his computer mind drifted to recordings of his memories.
Of his battles with his friends.
Playing with a five year old girl that only knew peace.
But it stopped and he looked down at Android 21.
"I…. will destroy them."
21 looked up at him and noticed his unhappy expression. One of her majin eyes turned to normal for a moment before reverting back to their distorted look.
She only smiled looking forward to the final day.
Ok, so Iolite has healing now, a sort of nod to Trunks in the manga who learned healing I hope you like it and her path to mastering Super Saiyan 3.
Now there is only one chapter before the final conflict and we end the story, I hope you guys will like it.

Shadowwriter01: I'm happy you enjoyed it because it was hard to write for me since Hirudegarn is a mindless beast.
Yes Towa has a contingency plan also it's in their interest to keep her around so they can remain hidden until the time comes.
Ok, guess that's it.
Have an awesome day! :)
