Nexus HWR 12.3 Climbing the Mountain:
Two Weeks Ago…
Several miles above the ground, a single figure flew up a steep-slanted side of Mount Vegeta. He may have been several miles off the ground level, but the top of the mountain was still out of his view. He finally spotted a flat edge sticking out of the steep slope and he shot over to it before landing and instantly dropping to his butt. "Oh man," Sora said and he put his hands down on his knees, panting hard and taking some deep breaths to calm his heart rate.
"I have to practice flying more," he said, standing back up and turning to look at the slope of the mountain again. "Though, I seem oddly tired, even if I've been flying for a long time," he scratched the back of his head, then realized he was still panting even though he gave himself more than what should have been enough time to rest. "Oh!" He exclaimed. The kid opened his mouth wide and tried sucking in a huge amount of air, only to nod when he was done like he had it figured out. Air up here is thinner. Makes sense that it's getting hard to breathe. He lifted his gaze to the thick cloud layer covering the mountaintop above him and he frowned. Have to keep going though.
Sora started walking from the flat edge up the slant. Flying would wear him out too fast and the slope was gentler here than below the flat edge. Though it may have been gentler, it was still hard to climb and he had to reach forward and use his hands to climb at several sections that it became too steep to just walk up. The teenager rose and rose and as he entered the clouds, everything becoming misty and damp around him. The higher he went though, the colder it became, and before long he found himself stepping in snow and grabbing at it with his hands.
Sora stopped going as he was shivering too much, and since he was in the cloud layer he could not really tell, but he was pretty sure the suns had all gone down as it was getting dark along with a lot colder. Maybe I should sleep for a little, he thought, looking down at the snow that looked so soft. He was done talking out loud, breathing was hard enough as it was up there, he did not need any help losing his breath. Sora leaned down, then snapped up fast and shook his head around, Come on! You're not even that tired.
He rose his hands and a Keyblade formed in them. He swung Oathkeeper around and dispersed some of the clouds around his face, then pointed the weapon down at the ground and shot a ball of fire at the floor. It quickly went out in the snow, but the heat helped him stop being so hazy and become alert again. He rose up his Keyblade and white magic surrounded him, and when it was gone he was no longer wearing shorts and a t-shirt, but a heavy yellow winter jacket and red snow pants. The boy's huge yellow shoes transformed into big black hiking boots that kept all water out of them, allowing Sora's cold damp feet to dry off and heat up.
"Alright," he mumbled under his breath, turning his head and finding the upwards slant so he knew which way to go. Keep going, he thought, and the trek continued.
Sora rose and rose, hiking ever higher up Mount Vegeta. He had not seen any signs of life in over a day's time, having arrived at the base of the mountain late in the afternoon the day before so he slept close to the bottom that night. The teenager pulled his yellow coat's fur hood up above his head as at some point he did not recall, it began snowing and his brown spiky hair was getting covered in it. He crossed his arms as he continued to walk, rubbing his own arms that were starting to feel cold even inside his jacket.
He trekked out of the cloud layer, but it was so dark he could not tell, especially since it was the layer of clouds above the one he just climbed through that was dumping snow on the mountain. Sora looked up as the snowfall increased, each flake looking heavier and weighing him down as it collected on his clothing. How much higher is the top? He thought, his body and mind exhausted. Sora lifted up his gaze but he could not see ten feet ahead of him, let alone the top of the mountain. Alright, this time for real, he dropped down to his knees. I am way too tired to make it today, I'll just take a quick nap, and climb the rest, tomorrow. Sora's face was blue and he turned his body a little as he fell forward, making it so the side of his hood hit the snow instead of his face, giving him a soft pillow to lie on while snow continued to pile up on his body. Just, for a minute, he thought, while the last visible parts of his red pants stopped showing and his boots got completely covered in snow.
Just, need to, find… Sora's eyes fluttered shut. He lay there, breathing in and out slowly as his body covered more and more with snow. Soon he would be completely under, but he did not mind. His mouth curled up into a smile at the rest he was finally getting, and he let out one deep breath that hung in the air in front of him for a few seconds before fading.
On the eastern slope of Mount Vegeta, a lone traveler got buried in snow. The blizzard was one of the worst the mountain had seen in recent months. Temperatures were dropping through the night to ten, twenty, thirty degrees below zero, not even counting the wind chill. It was truly a freezing wasteland.
A mile up the mountain, an indented section of the slope that had a large flat surface on it was almost silent. It was silent despite the smoke coming off of the flat surface, or the wooden barricades surrounding the area, or the huts and longhouses in the camp that had chimneys which the smoke was billowing out of. Even the two standing in front of the one opening in the pointy wooden fence that surrounded the camp were quiet as they guarded the place.
The two blond teenagers had weapons on them, as well as fur coats and a lot more layers on than a boy buried in the snow not far from them. The boy teenager whose blond hair was almost as long as his cousin's, flowing straight down to the top of his spine instead of halfway down it, wore a green jacket that matched the round green shield on his back. Around his neck was a pendant, but that pendant was actually a sword in disguise: Sumarbrander, the Sword of Summer, otherwise known as Jack. On the other side of the gate as the teenage boy, his cousin only a year older than him at nineteen had a sword made of bone strapped to the left side of her waist, and a glowing red pistol on the other.
Magnus and Annabeth Chase stood guard quietly, not because they had nothing to say, but because it was frigid, and because the falling snow was so thick they could barely see each other across the gate. The younger teen turned towards his cousin though, and he cupped his hands to his mouth. "Hey!"
Annabeth turned to him, "What?" She called over.
Magnus breathed in heavily then called out, "You ever wonder why we're-"
"Annabeth!"
"Magnus!"
"Mother?" Annabeth asked, snapping her head in the air.
"Father?" Magnus shouted at the same time.
The cousins looked back at each other, then in the air again as the voices who spoke to them continued. They could both hear each of the voices, and they were stunned to hear them in their minds. "What's going on?" Annabeth exclaimed. "Mother, I have not heard from you in years! What is-"
"There is no time Annabeth," Athena, the goddess of wisdom, spoke into her daughter's mind. "Quickly! There is little time. Down the mountain there is a boy dying in the snow. If you do not save him, all is lost."
Magnus's eyes snapped open wide as he heard something similar in his mind. He spun to look towards the edge of their flat area where there was a cliff's edge before the slope of the mountain got gentler again. "Someone's out there in this blizzard?!" He shouted, already starting to run away from the camp.
"Wait!" Annabeth called after him. She looked up and shouted, "How will we find him?!"
The voices stopped, and Annabeth clenched his fists angrily at her sides. "Answer me!" She yelled. "I want some answers!"
"Anna, come on," Magnus called back at his cousin. She turned and then gawked as she watched her cousin, a Son of Frey, hop right over the cliff.
The blonde girl growled in frustration and then sprinted towards the edge as well. She stopped and looked down, but the snowfall was too thick to see where her cousin landed. When this is done, I will get some answers, mother. Annabeth took a deep breath, then jumped off the cliff.
"I'll come back to you, I promise!"
"I know you will!"
Sora felt uncomfortably warm and he fidgeted around because of it. The heat did not stop though and his eyelids fluttered open slowly. He tilted his head right and saw a fireplace next to him only a few feet away, giving off a warm glow that filled the log cabin he was in. The room was tinted red and orange from the flames, and Sora smiled at the fire that although he felt annoyed at it, for some reason he felt grateful to see it.
"Hey look."
"He's awake."
Sora turned his head from the fire and looked the other way, which snapped him out of his calm, tired, and delusional state. He sat up and looked confusedly at the crowd of people all staring at him. "Um, hello," he greeted. Suddenly, them staring at him was the least of his focus, as he snapped his head down to see he was wrapped in several furry white blankets, and much more alarming, he was naked. He spun back to the people with a nervous look as they were all staring at the top half of his body that had no shirt on, and he pulled his blanket up a little to make sure nothing slipped into view. "Can, I help you?" He questioned.
"Are you an idiot?" a blonde girl snapped. She was standing at the front of the crowd and glaring harshly at the teen around her age who gained a surprised and confused look on his face.
"Annabeth," a taller, black haired teen next to her said softly. She humphed and crossed her arms, still looking pissed off since she got back with her cousin and the near-frozen mystery teen. The black haired teen turned towards Sora again and he stepped forward, "Hey there, my name's Percy, Percy Jackson."
"Sora," the boy greeted back. He pushed a hand down to sit up straighter, but his arm hurt when he tried and he felt too exhausted to really move well. "What the," he muttered. He looked back up as something hit him and he went, "Uhh, so, where am I? Last thing I remember, I was climbing Mount Vegeta. I decided to take a quick nap."
"Idiot," a tall, muscular girl with short blonde hair snapped at the teen. Sora turned his head left and saw this girl leaning against a wall with two guys her height and as muscular leaning at her sides. Clarisse La Rue had her arms crossed and she growled at Sora who looked over at her, "You were in a blizzard. You don't take a nap, in a blizzard. If you lie down, you die."
"Die?" Sora questioned skeptically. He chuckled and the girl frowned at him as did everyone else in the room. Sora spoke up though and questioned, "So then why am I alive?"
No one really had an answer for him. Magnus Chase stepped forward so he was at Percy's side, and the blond boy questioned, "You don't know?" Sora looked at him and shrugged, before yawning a long yawn and falling back down to his back.
Sora stared up at the wooden ceiling of the warm room and he nuzzled into his blankets again, appreciating them more now than before. Magnus turned to Percy and the son of Poseidon gave him a look that said, 'I have no idea.' "Well," Sora began and they all turned back to him. "Thanks for getting me out of the snow, I figure that's why I'm in here now. And if I really was about to die, then thanks for that too." His eyes were fluttering closed and he yawned again. "Sorry, I'm just, so tired. I have to get to the top of the mountain tomorrow, so I'm going to take another nap."
"Another nap?" Annabeth asked, throwing her arms up in the air. "You were almost frozen solid!"
"Frozen solid, napping, what's the difference?" Sora mumbled, fidgeting around as he tried to get in the most comfortable position to sleep in. "I just need to get to the top," he whispered.
"You can't," a harsh voice growled behind him, and Sora recognized it as the muscular girl, Clarisse, who sounded closer to him now than before. "Only Saiyans are allowed at the top of Mount Vegeta. Besides, you won't make it up there. The air is too thin for humans like you."
Sora mentally groaned but he had to open his eyes after hearing that. "Like me?" He questioned her wording. He tilted his head left and looked around at the people gathered there in the cabin. "Not, like us?"
Percy shook his head at Sora who opened his eyes a little wider as he did hear correctly. "Welcome to Camp Half-Blood, Sora. Everyone in this room, is a demigod."
"Demigod huh?" Sora said, his wide eyes going back to normal. "Oh, I thought it was something out of the ordinary," he said, then chuckled at the gawking looks the other teens gave him. His eyes started closing and he whispered as they shut completely, "Hope that doesn't mean, Hades is hiding around here. I'd have to kick, his butt, again," Sora chuckled his way to sleep and the next thing out of his mouth was a quiet snore.
The demigods of Camp Half-Blood stared blankly at that teenager, wondering if they heard him right, or if they were just as delusional as he was.
The Next Morning
Sora snapped up, breathing rapid and loud breaths that made a boy not far from him spin around in surprise. Magnus Chase stared in surprise at the spiky-haired teen his age, because unlike the night before when Sora roused, this was not a gentle awakening. Sora's body was covered in sweat from more than just being wrapped in half a dozen fur blankets that the demigods thought he needed to thaw him out fully. "You alright there?" Magnus asked, and Sora spun his head to the left fast as he was not expecting that voice. He was so lost in thoughts about the crazy dream he just had that the sudden voice disoriented him.
"Who are you?!" Sora shouted. He jumped up then snapped his head down and stared at his own naked body in panic. He brought his head back up while snapping his arms down to cover his privates, but the boy he looked towards had already spun away from him to face the counter he was originally facing before hearing Sora wake up. "Why am I-" Sora stopped shouting, as the brief moment of consciousness he had the night before came back to him. "Camp Half-Blood," Sora whispered, then shook his head to compose himself and stop standing so slack-jawed. "Sorry!" Sora exclaimed, as he realized he just flashed the teen in front of him who he remembered was one of the ones who said they saved him last night. Sora rose his right hand and a flash of light illuminated that Magnus caught out the corner of his eye.
Magnus dared turn around as he was not all that uncomfortable in the first place and really just turned away as a courtesy to Sora who he could tell forgot he was naked. When he turned, his eyes opened wide at the sight of Sora wearing a very similar outfit to him except Sora's furry coat was blue instead of green. Sora had on a long thick pair of pants and boots that came even higher up his shins this time. His black pant legs went over the tops of his boots to make sure that snow did not get in them, and Sora's hands covered in red gloves too to keep him extra warm. A green beanie was still in the process of appearing in a shimmer of golden light over his brown hair, and Sora reached up while Magnus watched to pull the hat down. Pulling his beanie down pressed some of his hair spikes to his head and two of those spikes stuck out the bottom of the beanie acting like bangs that stuck down over the front of his face, though leaving his bright blue eyes visible.
The blond-haired teen shook his head in a bit of amazement, before turning back to the counter behind him. "How do you like your coffee?" Sora looked over the teen's shoulders and saw some smoke rising up past him, so he suspected there was a coffee pot there with some brewing already.
Sora shrugged his shoulders though as he did not really drink coffee. "However you normally make it," Sora said, while walking forward towards the other boy. "And thanks, not just for the coffee."
"When I found you under all that snow, I was shocked to find you still had a pulse," Magnus admitted, while turning and holding out a mug for Sora to grab. He had a cup in his own hand, and after Sora grabbed his, Magnus pulled his cup up with both hands and blew on the steaming hot liquid a few times.
"So you were the one who actually found me?" Sora questioned, smiling and lifting up the coffee mug the other boy handed him. He lifted it to his lips, "Ouch!"
"Careful," Magnus warned with a short laugh. Sora licked his lips a few times then blew on his coffee to prevent getting burned again. "And yeah, my cousin Annabeth and I found you out there. You're lucky."
"Yeah, guess I am," Sora said, smiling to himself at his luck.
Magnus started to frown as Sora smiled like that though. He put his coffee down on the counter behind him, then spoke while crossing his arms in front of his chest, "I'm Magnus Chase." Sora looked up and was going to reintroduce himself as he felt like he only had to the black-haired teen whose name he could not recall at the moment. Before Sora could say his name though, Magnus continued, "My father is Frey, a Norse God from my universe. My cousin Annabeth, her mom's Athena, a Greek God like Hades who you mentioned while delusional." Sora's smile faded a little, then his mouth flattened as Magnus interrogated, "Now tell me Sora, why did both of our parents, Gods who neither of us have heard from since the early days after we got to this world, decide to break that over-two-year silence to tell us to save your life?"
"That's gotta suck," Sora mumbled.
"Huh?" Magnus asked, a look of confusion appearing on his face. What is he talking about?
"Sorry your parents weren't talking to you guys, it sounds like they could have gotten in contact any time they wanted. I can see why you'd be mad at me if I'm the only reason they decided to call in." Sora scratched the back of his head with a guilty look. "I can't say it's really my fault though, so I hope you're not too mad. I don't know myself why your God-parents told you to save me, or how they even knew I was lost in the blizzard for that matter." Sora sounded even more confused at the end of his sentence than at the start as he started to wonder how the Gods knew where he was.
Magnus did not really know what to say to this teen, but the semi-hostile atmosphere he had tried to create was gone. He realized it too, and he chuckled to himself while taking another sip of his coffee. I've been completely disarmed. Who is this guy? "Come on," Magnus said, putting his coffee mug down on the counter and then motioning towards the door with his head. There was a brown wool coat at the door along with a warm pair of pants and boots, a full set of clothing that Sora noticed and opened his eyes wide at. "We got those ready for you, but we should'a guessed you could make your own after the wet clothes we got off of you last night vanished into thin air."
Sora blushed and chuckled a few times uncomfortably. "And uh, how many people were there when you did that?"
"Everyone," Magnus replied, and Sora's face turned even redder so he looked like a tomato. Magnus would have liked to keep messing with him, but the teen really did seem embarrassed, so he sighed and said, "But when we got you out of the clothes it was just me and Percy. He had the decency to tell everyone else to look away until we had you wrapped in those fur blankets."
Sora sighed a long breath of relief. The two of them walked towards the door and Sora thanked the other boy again for that. Magnus grunted in a response this time, before muttering, "Don't know why you would be embarrassed though."
"Did you say something?" Sora asked, turning to the blond boy.
"Nothing," Magnus replied, then he reached out and grabbed the handle to the door, pulling it open so Sora could step outside. While Sora stepped past him, Magnus looked down at Sora's feet and the size of his enormous boots. He glanced on the other side of the open door to the boots they had gotten for him to wear, and just shook his head at how Sora would have never fit into them. He then followed Sora outside and pulled the door shut behind him, before reaching up and grabbing the gray scarf he had wrapped around his neck and pulled it up so it covered the bottom half of his face. "Guess I should have warned you!" Magnus shouted, as anything less than a shout would not have been heard over the buffeting winds. Sora turned to the boy next to him who even from only a foot away was still blurry with the constant sideways-moving snow flying into and between them.
"The blizzard from yesterday?" Sora shouted.
"It's only gotten worse," Magnus yelled back. "Come on, you won't be going anywhere today!" He started trekking forward, and Sora looked down to see the snow got really thick just in front of them and he would have to push his legs through it all. He turned right before following Magnus, and he looked towards where he thought the slope of Mount Vegeta continued to rise. I can't see a thing. I don't really need to see to go straight up though. He lifted his gaze to the sky, I could fly straight through those clouds and get, up, there, Sora stopped his thought process as he noticed he was already panting heavily, and the thought of rising any higher in elevation made his throat and lungs hurt. "Sora? SORA?!"
"I'm right here!" Sora yelled in front of him, and he could see a silhouette through the blizzard that was coming back towards him stop. He sighed before taking in a deep breath full of snow particles, then shouted, "Right behind you! Let's get moving!" Sora trudged forward through two feet deep snow. It was so deep that he could not lift his legs fully out of it before pushing them farther forward. "Where are we headed anyway?" Sora called out when he started walking side-by-side with Magnus.
"Most everyone else will be at the dining hall! On days like these we can't do much outside, so the only ones not there would be people who decided to stay in their homes, and the guards around the camp!" As Magnus finished shouting, Sora started to think the snow in front of them was getting darker. He realized after a few more steps though that it was another silhouette darkening the air behind the sideways-falling snow in front of him that was making everything darker. He looked left and right, and in both directions he could not see an end to that black shadow. Then again, they were only ten feet in front of it, and he could not see far in any direction so he wondered how long the building really was. The one he woke up in was the one he recognized from the night before, so this was a place he had never seen inside of. Magnus walked straight towards the doors, but Sora sped up a little right as they got there, and the spiky haired boy pressed his hands against them and shoved them in hard.
His eyes darted to the right at the sound of a loud grunt at the moment he entered, and he spotted the tall muscular girl who taunted him the night before sparring with the two muscular men who were with her. They did not seem to like the idea that they were stuck inside all day and were taking out that frustration by doing what they would have been doing outside, training. His eyes darted left at the flickering light he saw, and the boy felt relief at the sight of a giant hearth at the base of a chimney on the left wall that was filling the room with warmth. There were a lot of tables and chairs set up over by that hearth, while most of the huge dining hall that he could now see was over eighty meters long and thirty wide had nothing on the floor. It looked to him like all the tables that would normally be spread out all over the place were brought closer to the hearth, and a glance at the floor and sight of skid marks told him that assumption was correct. The back wall thirty meters from him had some openings in it so that he could see through to a kitchen on the other side, though currently he did not see anyone back there working on cooking, and the smell of breakfast lingered in the air, so he figured he had missed the first meal of the day and the second was not yet in the process of being made.
Sora smiled and his eyes darted back to the left while he turned that way. "Hey," Sora greeted the people who got up from their tables, chairs, or seats on the floor if they wanted to be especially close to the flaming hearth. "Thanks everyone," he said, and he bowed his head a little as he did not know their customs, but he did know that a lot of people on this world expected it as a part of a respectful or grateful gesture. "You saved my life."
Magnus slammed the doors shut behind him when he walked in after Sora, then he turned and looked at Sora's back oddly as the brown haired teen stood back up straight. Really, what is up with this guy? "He woke up," Magnus called out, then started walking forward past Sora towards the area where all his friends were.
"It's about time," a girl's voice snapped.
Sora looked to the center of the group of sixty-five people to see a blonde girl who kind of reminded him of Magnus. He also recognized her from the night before, and putting two and two together he said, "Thanks especially to you Annabeth. Magnus told me that it was you two who found me in the snow."
Annabeth stopped storming towards Sora after only one step, and a look of surprise filled her face for a second. Realizing that she was getting completely disarmed, she quickly re-firmed her expression and kept marching towards him. "Annabeth, I'm sure he's still-"
"Percy, I want to know what he's doing here, and I know you do to," Annabeth snapped without turning back to the black-haired man behind her.
Percy! That's right, how could I forget an name like that? Percy, Magnus, Annabeth. Oh whoa Annabeth! Sora leaned back as the girl marching his way reached down and grabbed the short-sword made of bone on the left side of her waist. She drew it and stopped when she was five feet from Sora before extending her arm and pointing the tip of her blade at Sora. Sora rose his hands up next to his soldiers as a sign of surrender. "I don't want to fight," he said with a hesitant voice. "I really am grateful to you, to all of you." He leaned back more as Annabeth frowned deeper at the second apology and pushed her sword even closer to Sora's face like that was not the right response.
"I'm going to have to ask you to put that away though," Sora continued. What Sora said stopped Percy from opening his mouth as he was about to tell Annabeth to calm down. Instead, an intrigued look spread on his face, Magnus spun around from the girl he just walked over to, and the muscular children of Ares sparring on the opposite side of the room finally stopped their battle for a second. Annabeth herself lifted her eyebrows, but then instead of lowering her weapon, she just re-narrowed her eyebrows in and pushed her blade farther- Clank!
The eyes of all the demigods in the room opened wide at the sight of Annabeth's sword spinning up in the air. Her arm was still in the process of rising up, but Annabeth felt more shock than pain. In fact, she did not feel any pain at all, despite the strange weapon in Sora's hands who everyone else thought he just slashed her with. Magnus ripped the pendant from his arm, Percy leapt over a table, and Clarisse and the children of Ares spun with their swords lifted high and in battle stances now. "Wait!" Annabeth shouted. Everyone froze what they were doing. She stared in surprised silence straight ahead at the boy who never took his blue eyes off her own gray ones. Sora lifted his free left hand, and he caught her blade by the hilt with it. He tossed it up a couple of times like he was feeling out its weight and whether or not he liked it as a weapon, then he flipped it around and grabbed it by the blade. He lifted his right hand and rested his Kingdom Keyblade over his right shoulder so it pointed out to the left behind his neck, while holding the hilt of her Drakon Bone Sword out for her to take.
Annabeth reached out to grab it, all while looking into Sora's eyes that said to her, 'This isn't a toy.' The idea of threatening this person no longer seemed like a good idea to her, but she still grumbled as she grabbed her weapon back and re-sheathed it at her waist. "So that was unnecessarily tense," Sora said with a small chuckle, trying to laugh off the current situation of everyone glaring or staring nervously at him. "Sorry about that."
He, he's infuriating! Annabeth thought, because even though she was the one who was just embarrassed in front of all her friends, she suddenly had the urge to apologize and take fault for the awkward situation that arose. She rose her hands and rubbed her temples tog et rid of the emerging headache before it got too strong. "Can you tell me, any reason that the Gods would want us to save you?" Annabeth questioned. The tense atmosphere calmed down as Annabeth asked the question, confusing many people who did not understand why she was suddenly calm in front of that boy who disarmed her so easily.
"I, can think of a few reasons," Sora admitted, but he specified the word 'think,' and that made a lot of people in the room including Annabeth to frown in aggravation. "I know it's not what you want to hear, but, I'm kind of not allowed to talk about it," Sora let go of his Keyblade and moved his right hand a little farther from his shoulder to the back of his head that he started scratching sheepishly. His Keyblade fell, but it never clattered on the floor, and everyone staring at the strange weapon watched it vanish into thousands of little golden lights that floated up and disappeared into thin air.
"Well," Percy began. Annabeth turned, and she and Sora both watched Percy Jackson as he walked towards them. "Whoever you are, the Gods wanted us to save you and we did. But what you were saying last night, about wanting to climb the rest of this mountain-"
"I have to get to the top," Sora interrupted.
"It's suicide," Annabeth said quickly. Sora turned back to her, and she shook her head at him before explaining, "The Saiyans have rules banning other races from the tops of the tallest mountains in this range. The Saiyan King protects every town, village, and city within fifty miles of Mount Vegeta, but even the people and other humanoid creatures in his own domain cannot go to Vegeta's peak."
"What about people bringing up food to them?" Sora questioned. If he knew Saiyans, and he did, he figured a bribe of some good food could get him in good with their people.
Annabeth and Percy shook their heads though. Percy countered his suggestion, "Saiyans go down the mountain to get food and supplies that they then bring back up. The rule is not broken by anyone. Even though the Super Saiyan Gods know some secrets of this world, like we do, they would still kill us if we climbed to the peak of this mountain."
"They're a race of selfish bastards," a voice said behind Sora. The feminine voice was gruff and he recognized it, but unlike the night before when she taunted him, he was not going to let her comment go this time.
"No they're not," Sora said, turning and glaring into Clarisse's eyes. Clarisse had marched up close behind the teen a little shorter than her, but as she got ready to retort, he continued, "My friend Goku is the second best person I know. His sons are also great, and Vegeta's not a bad guy, once you get to know him." Clarisse's eyes were huge as soon as Sora mentioned Goku, but they narrowed in anger as Sora finished, "You shouldn't generalize their entire race because of the actions of a few."
"I think you've got it backwards," Annabeth scoffed. "It's more like you're using a small few exceptions to argue…" She faded off as Sora turned to her with a disappointed look on his face because of the side she was arguing with. At the sight of it, Annabeth interrupted herself, "Not that I think they're all bad. Of course I know Son Goku isn't a bad person-"
"Saiyan," Sora corrected. "He isn't a bad Saiyan," he said, and he looked around the room to see if anyone agreed with him. He mostly got blank and confused looks, as what he was saying went right over a lot of their heads. Percy was watching him carefully though, and Sora turned to the boy who he got a feeling of leadership from. "Anyway, I think Goku's up there, and I need his help."
"Well at least think it over for today, you'd never make it up during a storm like this," Percy told the younger teen in front of him. Sora hesitated, then nodded as he had already accepted that fact himself. "If you do go up to the peak, I won't tell you the Saiyans won't be trying to kill you, but…" Most of Percy's friends looked at him in surprise that he thought there might be an alternative to that scenario. "If the Gods wanted you alive, then maybe the Super Saiyan Gods do as well."
"What's a Super Saiyan God?" Sora asked.
Annabeth shook her head at the teen in front of her who she deemed hopeless. He's heading to the most dangerous place in the world and doesn't even know what Super Saiyan Gods are? What an idiot. As much as she wanted to dislike him for that stupidity though, the boy in front of her became more likable with every little thing he said and did. She was about to respond, but she noticed Sora still wearing the heavy clothes he came in with, and the warmth inside the cabin was melting the snow all over him. "You should get out of those before you get soaked," Annabeth mentioned.
Sora looked down at himself, then a glance to the side showed him that Magnus had gotten out of his outermost layer. Magnus actually looked up and smirked at him after his cousin said it, as he was there when Sora dressed himself and knew that Sora had nothing on underneath what he was currently wearing. Sora saw the smirk, and he smirked right back as he rose his arm and formed his Keyblade in it. Magnus frowned as he realized the flaw in his smugness, while Sora showered himself in magic and got dressed in more comfortable clothes. He had on a pair of brown sweats and a black hoodie with the hood down, and a pair of moccasins to complete the relaxed look. "Thanks," Sora mentioned to Annabeth as he turned back to the girl.
She was shaking her head at him after the casual display of that strange magic. Sora rubbed his arms inside the sleeves of his sweatshirt and added, "Mind if I go sit by the fire? I think I could still thaw out some more from last night," he joked.
Annabeth frowned at him, but Percy walked forward and said, "Go ahead. I've got some things I want to ask you."
"Alright," Sora said. He started walking with Percy towards the hearth, and he said while they went, "I'll answer what I think I can, but after each question I answer, can I ask one of my own?"
Percy nodded and replied, "Sounds fair."
The teens walked towards the fireplace at the side of the room and sat down on a rug close to the fire. Sora noticed but pretended not to that the other demigods around the room, who were mostly teens or children, were all staring at him when he took his seat. He held his hands out with his palms towards the fire and let out a sigh. "So," he began, and he turned to his right where Percy sat cross-legged, "what's up?"
He said he couldn't tell us why he thinks the Gods saved him, Percy thought while nodding back at the younger teen. But I could probably figure it out with the right questions. "That weapon of yours," Percy began, "what is it? You can create it out of thin air and use it for magic, it's an amazing tool."
"It's a Keyblade," Sora replied to the demigod.
Percy hummed at the name, but he could not recall hearing of it before. "And what is it for?" Percy questioned.
"Uh uh," Sora said, and he shook his head. Percy looked at him confusedly, and Sora smiled and said, "It's my turn." Percy nodded, though Sora then added sheepishly, "Also, I don't think I can answer that one, just letting you know for your next question," Sora gave Percy a wink and the older boy almost laughed, and probably would have if he were not also annoyed that he had to think of a better way to word his second question. Why is that? He can't tell us, which means someone told him not to. Was it the Gods?
Percy's thoughts were interrupted by Sora's first question, "So why did you guys build a camp here?" Percy looked at the other boy in surprise, while Sora took off the green beanie that was the only part of his first outfit of the day that he had kept on when he changed. He shook his damp hair out and then leaned his head closer to the fire while letting the wet beanie vanish in a bunch of golden shards of light.
"That's your first question?" A thirteen year old boy muttered at Sora's back from the bench of the table he sat on behind the older teens.
Sora gave the kid a smirk with his head tilted sideways, and he replied, "It just seems strange to me that you'd set up so high in elevation. My lungs are still getting used to it up here, though I guess it's different for you demigods."
"No," Percy said, and Sora turned back to him. "It was rough for us too, when we first got up here," he admitted. "As to why: well I thought that the higher up we went, the closer to the Gods we'd be. On my world it was like that, I could only find the Gods at the top of the Empire State Building." Percy examined Sora's face as he said it, but Sora showed no recognition to the name of that building and he frowned. So he's not from a world like mine…
"Is everyone here from your world?" Sora questioned.
Percy shook his head. "A lot of us are, but Gods from other worlds sent the kids they had with mortals to find this camp." After Percy replied, he noticed Sora grinning in a devious way. "What?" Percy questioned.
"Oh nothing," Sora said and tried to stop grinning so much. "So the Gods talk to you guys-"
"Hey, that's the third question in a row," the same kid who commented at Sora before mentioned, and Sora's grin reappeared spreading across his face.
Percy realized why it was Sora was smiling and he felt like putting his face in his hands. Might as well go at his pace, Percy thought. "He's right," Percy said, looking up and grinning at Sora like they had caught him. "Now I get two in a row."
"Haha, alright," Sora said, and he leaned back away from the fire as his hair was feeling drier now. He shook his head and got his hair spikes back to their normal crazy spikiness, then locked his hands behind his head and awaited Percy's questions.
"My father Poseidon told me that a war was coming," Percy began. "He said that we needed to prepare for it like we never had before, because the battle would not just decide the fate of Nexus." His tone was a lot more serious than his previous comment, and the mood of the cabin started to match it as Percy continued, "That was more than two years ago. Sora, do you know, what it is we're up against?"
Sora's spiky black hair shadowed his eyes as his head bowed a little. Percy's eyes widened, and all the kids and teens behind them leaned forward, then Sora's head snapped up with a big toothy smile on his face and the boy replied, "Not a clue." A few dozen people fell off their seats behind him and Sora started laughing.
Percy ground his teeth, but he sighed and couldn't find a reason to stay mad as he did not think the easygoing teen in front of him was lying. He tried thinking of a second question, as he really only said he got two in a row because Sora did, but he couldn't think of anything he wanted to ask that did not build off of a different response for that last question. "I've got a question," a voice started, and Sora and Percy looked up and behind them to see Annabeth marching forward. She frowned down at Sora and made a bead of sweat roll down the side of his face as he realized he could not get away with a joking response with her like he had been doing with Percy.
"My mother told me last night that if I didn't save you, 'all is lost,'" she put her hands up to make air quotations as she said it in a sarcastic tone. "Now why are you so important?" She snapped at the boy, and she expected a good response.
Once Annabeth said what her mother told her though, Sora's sweat doubled and the boy's face became troubled. Holy crap what does that mean? I get that the Keyblade is important and all, but why does that sound so grim? "All is lost?" There'd still be Riku, and Kairi, and a bunch of others who could take my place! I'm not that important, am I? I mean, I guess I've saved the multiverse before, Sora started grinning, and I'm probably going to do it again. Even the Gods think I'm going to do it huh? Guess I should take that as a confidence booster! Even if there is a lot of weight on my shoulders. Sora's shoulders slumped, and he replied in a weighted-down voice, "I actually, don't know. I mean," he continued quickly as Annabeth opened her mouth to complain. "I know that, because of certain things that happened to me, and because of the weapon I wield, I'm now important. But as to 'why' those things happened, 'why' the Keyblade chose me," Sora shook his head and leaned it backwards with his hands still behind it. He leaned back so far that he fell all the way to lie flat on his back. Sora stared at the ceiling and his mouth was straight as he finished, "I never really figured it out."
The Next Day
"Are you sure about going to the top of this mountain?" Percy asked. The blizzard had stopped and though Percy wanted Sora to stay behind for another day to let his body adjust better to the elevation, and to rethink his plans on climbing the mountain, the spiky haired boy refused.
Sora looked up and to his right where the slope continued to climb steeply towards some unknown peak high above. "I'm sure," he said. The spiky haired teen looked back down at his new friend. "So, if you guys are all demigods, that means your parents were Gods, right?"
"It means one of them was," Percy corrected.
Sora nodded his head as that made sense with what he knew about demi-Saiyans. "So a bunch of other Gods besides Hades are here huh?" Sora put his hands behind his head and leaned back. "What do they do?"
"Gods?" Percy asked, lifting one of his eyebrows. Sora looked like he really had no idea though so Percy sighed and decided to try explaining. "Well, they have lots of different powers and responsibilities. For example, my father Poseidon is the God of the sea. That's why I can control water."
"Just like Theseus," Sora remarked and Percy's eyes opened huge. "Haha, I guess that means he's your brother? I met him at the Dread Fort-"
"Half-brother," Percy corrected, and Sora could see the other teen did not want to continue talking on the subject from the tone of his voice.
Sora kept smiling, but he did switch the conversation back on track as he kept talking. "I never really heard much about the Gods before. Other than Hades, I don't think I've ever met one."
"Most people haven't," Percy said. "The Gods, at least the ones I know of, don't normally interact with humans. Why they told Annabeth and Magnus to save you still confuses me."
"Yeah, me too," Sora mumbled. I wonder… he thought and he eyed Percy carefully. "Hey Percy," he began. The black haired teen turned to Sora while the younger boy stared straight up the mountain. Sora's mouth was flat and he asked in a serious tone, "Would the Gods know why the barriers between the worlds broke down? Would they know why they became connected on Nexus?"
Barriers between worlds? Percy nodded his head instead of asking the questions he wanted though. "They probably do," Percy replied. "My guess is that they are responsible for it."
"Really?" Sora asked, spinning to him in surprise. "Why do you say that?"
Percy shrugged and answered, "They are the only beings powerful enough to do something like that. They created the worlds after all."
"They did?!" Sora shouted. Percy nodded at him and Sora started scratching his chin thoughtfully.
I have to find one of these Gods and ask them what's going on. I don't know if King Mickey has done that yet, but I don't know where he is anyway and if they're strong enough to make worlds, maybe they could tell me where to find him. Sora nodded his head and he turned to Percy, a demigod, son of one of these extremely powerful beings he was just learning about. "Percy, before you met me did you ever hear about the Keyblade?" The blank expression on the other boy's face told him he had nothing, and Sora sighed. "Nevermind."
Sora started walking towards the mountain's steep slope. A smile came to his face and he asked, "Hey Percy, do you know about Olympus?" Percy's eyes opened wide and Sora continued, "So do you know Hercules?"
"Hercules?" Percy repeated. "Of course I know of him. Everyone here knows about him."
"You know of him?" Sora questioned, pausing where he was.
"Yeah," Percy said in a little confusion. "He was one of the greatest heroes ever. Why do you ask?"
"So he wasn't alive when you all came to Nexus?" Sora questioned.
Percy shook his head while staring blankly at Sora's back. "No, he's a legend, but from Ancient Greece."
"So you were from his future," Sora mumbled, mainly to himself but Percy heard him anyway. Sora smiled and looked into the sky, "Good for you Herc. You became a legend. Can't wait to tell you someday." He chuckled and then leapt off the ground and floated ten feet off the ground. "Thank you Percy, and tell those Gods thanks too for getting you all to save me." With that, Sora shot away from Camp Half-Blood while demigods all over the mountainside watched him fly off.
Magnus walked next to his cousin towards Percy and he said loudly, "So, who do you guys think that guy really was? There's no way our parents had us save some random dude."
Percy stared at the bottom of Sora's large boots as the teen flew away, and he had no response for Magnus. Annabeth looked less pissed than earlier but she still humphed as she reached her boyfriend and stood at his side. "Whoever he was is in the good graces of the Gods."
"He didn't even know anything about them," Percy mumbled. "Yet he said he fought Hades, and I'm pretty sure he knew Hercules."
"Hercules?" Magnus asked, wondering if he just heard his cousin's boyfriend correctly. Percy nodded, and both Magnus and Annabeth lowered their bottom lips.
"How could he have known Hercules?" Annabeth asked. "That would mean he's thousands of years old!"
"No," Percy said, turning around and looking at the blond teens behind him. "He said something about telling Hercules he becomes a legend."
"So, what?" Magnus asked. "You think he can go back in time?"
"I have no idea," Percy muttered. "But my guess," he turned back around and looked up, but no longer saw Sora's dot in the distance. He continued, "I think he was able to travel between worlds. I think he hopped into places in their timelines, and not specifically the times right before those worlds became connected."
"Alright alright, enough with your guesses," Annabeth smacked Percy on the back and he stumbled forward. "We'll find out for sure soon enough." Magnus and Percy looked at her, and Annabeth lifted her head to the sky, "Because I'm going to make my mother tell us what's really going on here."
This has to be the last cloud layer. I know it! Sora's optimism was partly because he really was getting tired again and did not want to keep flying for much longer. He sped up his ascent while keeping his breaths steady and calm. It seemed like spending a day at Camp Half-Blood allowed his body to adjust to the air this high up though, and he appreciated how it was not blizzarding today either.
The teenager saw the clouds thinning and his mouth curled into a huge grin. He could see three big circular lights shining on the top of the clouds and he sped up even more, then burst out of them like a dolphin splashing out of the water. He made it above and snapped his head left where he saw just the tip of a smaller mountain coming out of the clouds, and past that there was another one with a peak three hundred meters higher. He turned right and saw a mountain that must have went another mile or more into the sky from how wide it was down here, but when he looked straight up he was thrilled to see he could actually see the top of Mount Vegeta now too, though it hurt his eyes to look at it as the suns were directly above its peak.
Sora did a three-sixty degree spin to take it all in, but he paused when he was fully turned around to stare in awe at the massive mountain right behind him, only it was not a mountain. He knew, one- because it was floating above where he knew Mount Vegeta's base still extended out beneath below, and two- because he could see the bottom of this giant floating island in the sky. It was green and rocky and covered in vines and trees, and as he looked at it he heard roars and screeches of animals coming from inside its dense foliage.
He finished his turn and looked up Mount Vegeta, smiling ear to ear as he saw the top. Sora started flying up towards it, then came to a short stop as he saw three white blurs up there flying around. Are those Saiyans? I should go say- All three blurs shot out of the sky at once and Sora's eyes opened wide as they were coming straight towards him.
Sora opened his mouth to call to them, but as they got closer he saw all of their fists clenched and his eyes opened wide as one of them created a ball of white ki on his hand. "Wait!" He shouted while creating a Keyblade in his hand. They did not wait, and the one with the ball of ki threw it down at Sora.
All three of the men flying towards him came to a stop as an explosion filled the air where Sora just was. "Intruder taken care of," the fattest of the three said. He turned to the more muscular man next to him with longer, spikier hair. "You'll have to be quicker than that to get the kill before me Raditz."
"Shut it Broco," Raditz snapped at the fat man who actually did shut his mouth at the furious look Raditz gave him. "Whatever," he said, annoyed he was going in for a punch instead of taking the boy out from afar. "Back to work then, let's-"
"You know," a voice called up from below them. All three Saiyans snapped their heads down and as the smoke faded, so did a light blue translucent sphere surrounding an unharmed teenager floating there. Sora's Power Blocker had kept them from noticing he was still alive. The teen chuckled and continued, "That wasn't really nice. Should have seen it coming though after Percy's warning."
At Percy Jackson's name the Saiyans hesitated. "So you passed through that camp of freaks on your way here?" Raditz scoffed down at Sora, making the teenager frown as he thought of many of those 'freaks' as his friends now. "And yet you still came here knowing what we do to humans-"
"I recognize you," Sora said, lifting a hand and pointing it at Raditz. The Saiyan frowned deeply as he was interrupted and his fists clenched harder at his sides. He did not go straight for Sora's throat though, as what the boy said intrigued him a bit. "Yeah, that's right," Sora frowned deeply and glared into Raditz's eyes. "You killed Goku, right?"
All three of the Saiyans went wide-eyed and Sora continued in a dark voice. "Goku said that he had to kill you because you were trying to kill everyone on Earth. And I remember watching you both get that hole blown through your chests." Sora smiled at the reaction on Raditz's face, and since none of them had attacked him again, Sora decided to continue with a question, "Did Goku come here? I'm looking for him, and-"
"He will never know you came here," Raditz snarled, lifting his hand and creating a ball of purple ki on it three times the size of his comrade's previous one.
Now it was Sora's turn to go wide-eyed, but before Raditz could blow the teen to smithereens, a high-pitched voice called from above, "Sora!" Raditz froze and his hand shook like he was on the fence for whether to attack or not. "Raditz, stop!" The same voice shouted only much closer to that man's back now.
"You do not give me orders," Raditz snarled.
"But I do," a deeper voice said right behind him and Raditz froze. The ki sphere on his hand vanished, and he lowered his arm as he moved to the side for his father and brother.
"Goku!" Sora exclaimed as Goku flew down in front of him. "Haha, still a kid I see. Guess that Devil Fruit power may never wear off."
Goku laughed along and agreed, before turning and saying, "Sora, that's my dad, Bardock."
"You have a dad?" Sora asked in surprise.
Raditz sweatdropped that this teen really looked just as surprised to hear that as Goku did when he first arrived. Bardock lowered towards his youngest son and he frowned at Goku, "Since this is your comrade, I will stop Raditz from killing him. However, there are rules against humans coming to the peak of Mount Vegeta."
Sora knew it was a shot in the dark, but figured it was worth a shot anyway. "Um, how about a Keybearer?" Bardock's eyes turned into saucers as did Raditz's, but the other two Saiyans there just looked confused at the King and his eldest son's reactions.
Bardock's eyes lowered down to Sora's right hand and the question he had for him no longer seemed necessary at the sight of the oddly shaped weapon he was holding. Bardock spun to Raditz and growled, "Did you just try to kill, the Keybearer?"
"I had no idea," Raditz began.
"He's holding a Keyblade!" Bardock yelled.
"Whoa, that worked better than expected," Sora said while he watched this in amusement, glad the guy who attacked him and got Goku killed was getting scolded in front of his comrades. "How do you know about the Keyblade?" Sora asked. "And, it's nice to meet you Bardock, I'm Sora."
"Sora," Bardock said and he scratched his chin thoughtfully. He turned to the men with Raditz and said sternly, "This boy is not to be harmed on our mountain."
"But sir, he's a-" the fat Saiyan named Broco began, only for Bardock to give him a glare that got him silent instantly.
"Whoa, seems like your dad's a big shot around here," Sora whispered to Goku.
"Yeah, he's the Saiyan King," Goku replied, making Sora's jaw drop.
"But isn't Vegeta the Prince?" Sora asked, and the Saiyans around him heard Sora which made the two Bardock just ordered look hesitant to comply with his orders.
Broco opened his mouth, then a voice growled behind him, "Do you have a problem with your King's orders?" Raditz was no longer where he used to be floating, now behind his comrade whose face covered in sweat. Broco shook his head back and forth and Raditz smirked menacingly, "Good. Now get to work damn it!"
"Alright!" Broco shouted and shot up in the air.
Bardock called after the fat man and the other who flew away with him. "Let our people know that this boy is not to be harmed. If they disobey, they will die."
Sora's eyes opened huge now and he stared at the Saiyan King nervously. "So, I'm guessing you know a little about this world." He wanted to catch up with Goku and talk about why he came, but there were very important things he had to do and if Bardock could help him out, then he wanted to know whatever the King did.
"I do," Bardock replied. "All of the Super Saiyan Gods are given a crash course in this world's fate and what we should do about it."
"'A crash course?'" Sora questioned.
"They summoned us," Raditz snapped. "The Originals. They told us a little about you Keybearers, about Nexus, but not much else." Raditz looked pissed like he did not get as clear of an explanation as he wanted.
"I could really use some of that information myself," Sora said. "Seeing as I'm supposed to fix all this, I think." He thought about Mickey's message to him that he left in Atlantis, and how confident he was back then that he would accomplish his mission. But it's been a month and I'm still not any closer to finding the other Guardians, or King Mickey, or Donald, or Goofy, or the Keyhole!
"We will discuss that later," Bardock said to the boy in front of him who he only now noticed was panting pretty hard. "Follow me, we will go to my home on the top of Mount Vegeta."
"All the way up there?" Sora groaned, glad he got a minute's reprieve but tired as soon as he looked up and saw he had well over a mile left to fly before reaching where he needed to go. The Saiyan men other than Goku frowned at him and he closed his mouth. "Yeah, I can do that," he said, then started flying up to prove it to them. Crap, I totally underprepared myself for this. The Saiyans here are like Vegeta, worse even. I have to be careful.
As Sora flew up ahead of them and Goku flew by his side, Raditz and Bardock followed below. "Father, what are we doing? Why bring him up at all? He has no reason to be here." Raditz spoke while glaring at his younger brother and the supposed Keybearer's backs.
"You know as well as I that our roles here are insignificant compared to his," Bardock said, though he himself looked pissed as he did. "I dislike it as much as you, but we need to help him if we can. That boy is the best hope for the Saiyan race's survival." Bardock said 'that boy' while looking up at Sora, but his eyes drifted to the other boy flying at his side when he finished. Both of them are.
A/N Sora's arrived with the Saiyans! A disaster almost takes our young hero's life, but luckily Sora's got some people* looking out for him. What do the Gods, and Super Saiyan Gods, want with Sora? What is the importance of the Keyblade? The demigods don't know, but it seems like Bardock and Raditz have a little more information. Two weeks have passed since the last chapter, where we're now at the point not just after Dressrosa where Goku split off from the group, but after the main group split in half, and then after that when Sora left after the Dread Fort to go find Goku. We're catching up to the present and the shaking world! What will happen next?!
Limit-Breaking chapter 80 . 23h ago
Well it looks like I am going to lose my sanity, why. Because this story is making me lose my mind. Where do I even begin, first bardock vs blizzard god of destruction was so interesting and I love how the story was going with it. But it was sad to see bardock die in the end. Also he can just give this god power to other Saiyan's is crazy very very crazy this means that there are what 6 super Saiyan God's, I'm sorry but even I can't see the ant king and his army taking that on especially since pitou was damaged by tien if anything this will definitely be and interesting development to see. And raditz is a super Saiyan god, well poor Gohan is getting kidnapped again. But I wonder than since the super Saiyan god is a transformation for pure hearted Saiyan's does that mean bardock and his group are fully good people even raditz but they sorta have their pride like Vegeta does. Wow man first Timmy is mind controlled by the wizard king,than Zoro and his group trying to set sail towards the Saiyan's but fail I honestly can't wait to read more about that as welk than super Saiyan god appears, now they can give this transformation to anybody who can handle it. But than again bardock said to not give it away so easily since it can kill them but man it's basically a super Saiyan god bargain sale. OH YEAH I BEEN MEANING TO ASK BUT HOW BIG IS THE PLANET NEXUS, sorry for putting it in big caps but I just wanted to make sure you read that since I really don't remember if you mentioned it before. Besides that I look forward to reading more from this story and wish you luck on those finals.
Thanks! Really happy to hear it that you're liking the story! I originally had the plan to do a flashback for making Bardock a Super Saiyan God, but then it hit me that if that happened before the Saiyan race and far in the past with a God before Beerus, it had to be in a different way than in DBS. So far 6 SSGs, that you know of ;)... or maybe in all XD. How could the Ant King and his armies possibly stand up to those odds? Won't say anything on the good-heartedness, 'cause of the current vagueness of the transformation process, though Bardock said some Saiyans couldn't handle it (maybe cuz they were too evil?). As for how big Nexus is: I had given a few hints earlier on in Nexus, where I think I mentioned how Awul alone was as large as the surface area of the Earth one of the characters was from, or wait I think I had Mace Windu compare it to the size of Coruscant but had heard people compare it to Earth. Anyway, that's pretty big, and I think I've also mentioned that Aebrith is about 3x as large as Awul, not to mention all the water on the world, and any other possible continents and islands hanging around. So I'd say probably at least 10x as big as Earth, and probably no bigger than 20x. Thanks for the luck (hope I didn't bomb my test yesterday, or my one in 6 hours that I should be sleeping rn for instead of editing XD), and thanks again for the review!
joebob323 chapter 80 . 4h ago
I had to re-read the entire middle part of the chapter, I had thought for some reason that Blizzard was Chilled's dad, and I was confused at why Whis was there too. :/ RIP instant super saiyan god... I guess that Goku will have to wait his turn, or unlock it through training like Vegeta in Canon.
Lol XD Blizzard there for revenge over Chilled! Nah, Blizzard was just God of Destruction before Beerus, looking for his successor. Bardock giving a hold on Goku for becoming a God makes sense to me cuz of the risks coming with it, since Bardock does seem to care about Goku and doesn't want to see him get torn apart like some other Saiyans have from the process. Wish I knew how Vegeta unlocked his, would make it easier to write canon ways of Saiyans getting God form! Thanks for the review!
cyber chapter 80 . 21h ago
so I'm figuring there this god of destruction blizzard(which you made up) killed bardock, good plot and whis is with I don't know what that is all about but I'm liking whats going on, I cant wait to see what happens next.
Blizzard killed Bardock far in the past, don't know if you caught the FD - 5 million which meant (First Day on Nexus minus 5 million years), to show it was in the distant past. Blizzard was just the God of Destruction before Beerus (who I did make up). Don't know if you realized it was in the past or thought that was happening currently, but I'm glad you liked the chapter! XD Thanks for the reviews everyone, and thanks to everyone else who just ready too! 'Till next time!
