Dragon Ball Saga


 * Hell Saga ←—→ Final Saga

Prologue – Eros
 It was a rough day in the Sandstream Desert on Planet Eros as the two robed figures strode through the desert towards their goal, the smaller of the two who was female and clearly in charge spoke up.

 “We’re almost there, once we reach the cave we will find him” she tapped a device that she wore on her face and numbers popped up on the screen. Her partner, who could still clearly be seen as massive and muscular despite his cloak, growled.

 The sandstorm whipped around them, but the female raised her hand and stopped it, pushing the sand away, the cave was right in front of them. As the two entered into the darkness, two red eyes opened up, and a booming voice echoed around them.

 “Please do come in…” spoke the voice “…It’s been a long time since I saw another Planet Trader…”

Chapter 1 – Olant vs. Acress!?
 It was early in the morning and Olant stood at the edge of the clouds staring across the distance, the clouds were always red – though since it was early in the morning they had a slightly darker colour. All of the other Saiyans who had reformed in Heaven were asleep, only Ache had re-appeared since the two days since Olant’s trip through Hell – and Olant had only learnt that this morning - but that was understandable… The Grand Kai did say that it would take some time for them all to re-appear. Suddenly Olant was hit from behind and fell below the clouds, Olant stopped himself from falling and turned up to begin flying up, but then stopped himself – there was something… odd… about Hell, Olant looked over the area and tried to sense if there were any new entities but found nothing. It’s probably nothing…

 Olant flew up and found himself facing Acress, her arms crossed across her chest and a smirk on her face, she was wearing red battle armor with yellow shoulders. “Acress…” Olant was stunned “H-How?” he questioned as he sensed her ki “You’re even stronger than me!”

 “You didn’t notice yesterday? Or the day before?” Acress questioned before her smirk grew and her eyes slanted slightly “Understandable”

 Olant smiled and rubbed the back of his head “But why did you punch me?”

 “Well Lanty” said Acress “You seem to be the big boss Saiyan around here” she pointed at herself “But Im stronger so I should be the Queen of the Saiyans, and to get the post I have to beat you” Acress took flight towards Olant and threw a punch at him, Olant channelled Supreme Energy to his fist and caught her punch, then vaulted over her to land on the grass.

 “I’m not fighting you Acress” Olant said sternly

 “You don’t have a choice” Acress smiled as she flew straight at Olant and began rapid firing punches at his face, Olant moved his head back and forth to dodge the punches and then back flipped away, he looked up just in time to see Acress’ foot collide with his face and send him flying backwards, Olant stopped himself in the air.

 “Acress, I really don’t want to have to hurt you” Olant shouted down at her

 Acress raised her hands up with her palms facing upwards and laughed as she saw the look of shock on Olant’s face. “Supremacy Cannon! Fire!” she said as she fired the blast up at him.

 Eh, there’s one way to stop this  Olant thought to himself. Olant raised his head to the sky and roared –his aura and hair glowing golden as he took on the form of Super Saiyan. Olant stopped the blast with one hand – the other behind his back – and kicked it down into Hell. Acress’ jaw dropped as Olant landed beside her. “What…Was - Is…That” she said with disbelief

 “Super Saiyan” Olant shrugged “Multiplies my power by fifty times, it’s part of the reason Im the ‘big boss’ as you say”

 Acress stopped her look of surprise “Well okay then” she began walking back towards the mansion “You can be boss for now”.

Chapter 2 – The Dragon Balls
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant sat having breakfast with his friends, they were all seated at the table: himself, Barb, Bage, Ache, Kale, Ciche, and Acress. They sat discussing the events that had passes up until now, they each spoke of where they were when Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta, Olant and Bage spoke of their battles with Indus, Zenkai, and Icer, and Barb and his team spoke of their adventures on the edge of the galaxy and the border of its neighbour.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “But why is Acress so powerful” questioned Ache

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress looked uncomfortable “Me, Amara, and Olivia where training when Frieza’s Death Ball hit, me and Amara tried to push it back and got stuck right in the middle of it, gave us both quite a big ‘Zenkai’ as you call it” she stopped “Though of course Amara and Olivia aren’t here yet…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress was interrupted as the Grand Kai spoke up, the Saiyans had not noticed him arrive and his appearance was quite jolting “How are you all” he spoke cheerfully before pointing at each and counting “Ah! I see two more have arrived” he patted Acress and Ache on the shoulders and they both smiled awkwardly.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Olant” Acress asked quietly “Who is this?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “This is the Grand Kai” Olant explained “He helps run the universe”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress and Ache were shocked and their expressions showed it, they respectfully quitted down as the Kai spoke.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “There is something that I wanted you all to be aware of, there are items called the Dragon Balls, they possess the ability to grant any wish, there are a set of them located on Planet Eros in the Mid Galaxy and I was wondering if you wanted to go and collect them, I find it unfair that you young heroes would have to die so early, so if you wanted you could collect them and brings yourselves back to life.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Kale grinned happily “Yes!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> But Ciche was confused “We’re dead so there is no way for us to collect them, how would we do it?” he asked

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The Kai nodded, acknowledging Ciche’s question “I was just getting to that; there is a witch living on a Planet named Earth, her name is Baba, and she can allow people to come to life for one day each”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The Saiyans were all listening intently, it was nice here after all, but being able to come back to life would allow them to live out the rest of their proper lives.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Of course you won’t be able to leave here and come back normally, I’ll need to teach one of you a special technique, and whichever of you is strongest would be best”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress immediately stood up “Me, Im strongest in regular form, I should learn it!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant and Barb had both been about to get up but instead stopped themselves and sat back down, Barb rolled his eyes.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “It’s settled then” said the Grand Kai “It should only take a few days, you should relax until then”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Grand Kai and Acress walked off, with Grand Kai speaking as they walked and Acress asking questions.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The group sat silently at the table before Olant spoke “Why were you going to stand up Barb” asked Olant “We all know Im the strongest”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Sure” said Barb sarcastically

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Hmm, you don’t believe me, whatever Bage! Come on! We’re training” Olant said, Bage got up and the two walked towards the training grounds

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Barb turned towards the remaining three Saiyans “You three are the weakest of us, Im gonna need to whip you into shape!” The three looked absolutely terrified.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Uh…” Ciche spoke up “I kind of need to get to work in some kind of Dragon Ball locating device, which means I’ll need info on them, and I’ll need to make a ship for us. So… sounds great but I’m kind of busy” he slowly got up – all eyes were on him – and then dashed to the workshop.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Several weeks passed, the Saiyans who had stayed behind had all increased their power levels quite drastically thanks to their rigorous training. Ciche had successfully managed to build a device he named the “Dragon Ball Locator Version 1.0” and also construct a spaceship from parts he had collected from several other friendly races in Otherworld – it was an almost exact replica externally of Olant’s old Class-3 Planet Trade Invasion Pod which was destroyed during the final battle with Icer, though Ciche had made a few internal upgrades.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> It was early in the morning and Olant and Bage were flying above the training grounds hammering punches and kicks at each other, while below Kale and Ache both desperately attempted to land a hit on Barb; who was easily blocking and dodging their hits. Ciche was busy in his garage building blueprints for several new prototype weapons and vehicles for future use. At that moment Acress appeared seemingly from nowhere, she had two fingers pressed to her forehead but dropped her hand back to her side upon arrival.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant was the first to notice and held up his hand as a signal for Bage to stop “Acress” he shouted happily “Your back”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Lanty” she shouted back “How is my favourite Super Saiyan today, getting some training done with Bage I see”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Yea” Olant said as the three Saiyans below him stopped fighting and began to rise into the air “How did you appear so suddenly” he questioned

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I was hoping you would ask” Acress grinned “That was the special technique that the Grand Kai wanted me to learn, he brought me to some pink creatures with big heads called Yardrats and they taught me how to do it” she put her two fingers onto her forehead and disappeared, reappearing behind Olant and shocking Bage “It’s a teleportation technique called Instant Transmission and it’s our way out of here”

Chapter 3 – Return to the World of the Living
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> It was evening time when the Saiyans had gathered together to determine their plan for returning to the living world, Acress had just Transmitted away to quickly collect the Grand Kai and the Saiyans were discussing plans.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Im afraid that it would be best if we did not all go” Olant said

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Why not” questioned Bage

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Well, we will each have one day, which is not enough time to collect the Dragon Balls” Olant stated

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “That is correct” Ciche cut in “By my calculations it will take at least thirty six hours, twenty minutes, and five seconds to collect them all with breaks”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Exactly” Olant stated “So three of us will go, and three of us will give up their days to the three going in order to get two days, the last day will be left in case of emergency”, Olant continued “Acress has to go because we can’t get there without her teleportation trick” he gestured to Ciche “and he needs to go because he’s the only one who knows how the Dragon Radar and ship work”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Well Im definitely going” Barb said defiantly “Im not letting you show me up Olant”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Barb seriously” Olant said in exasperation “It’s pretty clear that I should go, I am strongest”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “A vote” Barb said angrily

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I vote Olant” stated Bage as he looked at Barb with annoyance “Even Im stronger than you Barb, you should not go”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Barb cast a look of intimidation at Ache and Kale “Barb! I vote Barb!” said Ache as his eyes grew wide.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Kale stared down Barb and spoke up “I really don’t like your attitude Barb” he said “You won’t intimidate me, I vote Olant”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Barb snarled and walked away just as Acress arrived back with the Grand Kai

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ache and Kale quickly headed over to collect Ciche while the Grand Kai communicated with Fortuneteller Baba on Earth, Ciche arrived, and he, Olant, and Acress were ready to receive a day on Earth.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Oh!” the Grand Kai said with alarm “I forgot one thing, if you die in the living world, you will cease to exist”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The moment Olant heard that he spoke up “Acress is not going”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “But Lant---“ She complained

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “You’re not risking yourself” Olant said stubbornly “Bage will come instead”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Bage did not look too happy with the decision, he had planned to spend the next few days sleeping, and eating, finally having a well-deserved break from all the events that had passed.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I have to go, you can’t leave this place without me” Acress spoke angrily

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I’ll just spend extra time learning that Instant Transmission technique” Olant replied

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> At that moment Baba spoke up “Oh no you won’t, you’re wasting enough of my time” she made a few gestures “Olant, Acress, and Ciche, you know have two days in the living world, use them wisely” she vanished

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant angrily smashed his fist into the ground “Damn, fine, I guess we have to go” he looked upset “But at the first sign of danger to your life you will teleport out Acress” he pointed sternly at her.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress shrugged as she grabbed Olant, Ciche put one hand on his hand on their ship and the other on Olant’s shoulder. Acress raised her fingers to her head. “Olant” said Bage

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Ciche” spoke Kale

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Acress” spoke Bage

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Good luck” the two finished as Acress teleported herself, Olant, Ciche, and their ship into the living world.

Chapter 4 – Alive Again
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant, Acress, and Ciche appeared in a forested area with a clear view of a nearby city, it was around midnight by the looks of things, Ciche tapped his upgraded Scouter to figure out their location, the scouter tapped into the most nearby satellite connection and revealed their location “Planet Nin” said Ciche “Home to the Canie and Felie people, the Canie are dog-like entities and the Felie are cat like” Ciche turned off his Scouter “Average power level is not too high, we shouldn’t be in any danger here” he looked down at the city before tapping a few buttons on the Dragon Radar “Huh!” he exclaimed “There is a Dragon Ball in the middle of the city!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> As he looked up he saw Olant gesture “You mean that massive military compound there”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Yeh” said Ciche “That”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Hmm, no problem for us” said Acress

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant gestured at the two to follow him as he flew over to the city. On the street there were a group of three soldiers surrounding one of the Canie people. The first soldier laughed as he spoke “C’mon scum, give us yer money, we are needen some cash to buy a couple beers”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Please” replied the Canie, his eyes wide with fear “I need this to feed my family”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “You do realise that King Stris doesn’t care what happens to trash like you” the soldier spoke as he aimed his gun towards the Canie, as he pulled the trigger Olant appeared in front of him, “What the—“ he looked at his gun, well… the crumpled remains of it, and backed away before pointing at the grim faced Saiyan “Men, fire!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The two soldiers rapidly opened fire with their guns and managed to hit Olant with perfect shots, but were shocked to see that they had done absolutely nothing. Olant raised one finger and blasted a beam at one soldier, knocking him to the floor, before grabbing the second and smashing him into the wall, Olant hovered over to the soldier leader, who was cowering on the ground, “What is going on here” he calmly asked the soldier.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “N-Nothing” he looked desperately at his comrades who were both either unconscious or dead “We were just messing around”, at this moment Ciche and Acress hovered down from the nearby rooftop and Acress grabbed the soldier by the neck, lifting him up. Olant softly punched the soldiers’ mask, breaking it and revealing the cat-like face of a Felie beneath.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “That fortress” gestured Ciche “what’s it all about”, the soldier whimpered, and Acress delivered a weak punch to the Felie’s face.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Alright, alright. I’ll talk” he gasped “our king Stris just finished his takeover of this place.. the--the capital city” he stuttered “we Superior Felie have always been better than these stupid Canie, and the inferior Felie who get along with them” he spat. And with that Acress threw him into the air, waited for him to fall, and then drop kicked him into across the street.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Y-You people sure are strong” the Canie said as he struggled to his feet, his legs still shaking from the ordeal he had just been through “My name is Olf” he gestured at himself “Can you help us?” he pleaded “The Felie king is a tyrant”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant looked at Olf and then to Ciche “You said the Dragon Ball is in the compound yes” asked Olant. Ciche nodded. “I’ll get it and this Stris fellow then”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olf gulped as Olant disappeared faster than he could blink. Acress and Ciche both walked onto the street but Acress turned back to Olf “C’mon, you’re not gonna want to miss this”, Olf followed the two Saiyans out just in time to see a massive explosion engulf the entire right side of the compound, dozens of Felie soldiers came flying out of the building. At this point people were coming out of their homes to see what all the commotion was about. A figure jumped out of the compound, clearly holding another person with his right hand.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant stopped himself just before landing and held out the flailing form of ‘King’ Stris, the tyrant’s big green eyes were terrified; Olant had obviously grabbed the orange cat while he was sleeping, as he was wearing pyjamas. He yelped as Olant dropped him in front of the crowds of Canie and Felie. “Do with him as you please” Olant stated as the King’s forces charged towards the crowd from out of their posts, the crowd looked at the soldiers with fear as they began to get closer.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Look out!” shouted one of the Canie in the crowd as one of the leading soldiers took fire at Olant, Acress jumped in front of Olant’s back and flicked the bullet back at the soldier, before Olant turned around and launched a Kiai at the mass of troops, knocking them over like pins.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olf, who had been watching from the head of the crowd, ran forward and kneeled down in front of Olant “Thank you! Thank you so much” he looked at the other citizens gathered around “How can we repay you?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant held up the Dragon Ball he held in his hands, It was a white ball with red three red stars on it “This will be enough”.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant, Acress, and Ciche headed back to their ship with the citizens of the Canie/Felie capital cheering for them. As Ciche activated the ignition and locked in the co-ordinates for the next planet that a Dragon Ball, no, Dragon Balls, were located on, Sudni Iaknez, fireworks shot into the sky in celebration of the Saiyans.

Chapter 5 – Two, Three, and Four
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant and Acress were about the head to their room for some relaxing time when suddenly Ciche spoke up “Hold on a second people, there is something very odd about the planet we’re heading too” he gestured at two maps he had up, one featured the small Planet, and the other had a blank space – there was a time difference of about 28 minutes between maps “It did not exist until about half an hour ago” he was puzzled “But there are two Dragon Balls there” he looked at Olant “How can this be?” Olant looked puzzled.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “We arrived here about 35 minutes ago” he said “How could a planet that came out of nowhere have two Dragon Balls on it”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “There are two neighbouring Planets that have Dragon Balls” explained Ciche, “Six of the planets in this sector form a circle around the centre, each planet has a Dragon Ball on it, including the middle Planet. Eros, this ‘artificial’ planet I presume does not fit in with this chain, and I presume that the Dragon Balls from the two neighbouring planets were moved there”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant looked uncomfortable “Ciche, you keep the ship in orbit, me and Acress will jump down with Instant Transmission, it’s probably safest that way”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche nodded “That makes things a lot easier, we should be within range for an Instant Transmission in about…” he paused to calculate “two minutes, and thirty-six seconds”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> As the ship approached, Olant spoke to Acress privately “You know the rules Acress” he said sternly “First sign of danger and you’re out of their”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> She raised an eyebrow “How would you get back”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I would take care of the danger” Olant replied “And the drop my ki level down to about 10,000 so that you would know it’s safe”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress nodded, even though she had no intention of leaving the fighting to Olant.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “We’re within range” shouted Ciche, Olant, and Acress walked over to the command desk, Acress put her hand on Olant’s shoulder and placed her two fingers to her forehead. “Putting shields up to maximum and activating scanners” said Ciche “Go for it boss” he held his thumb up.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant felt his body dissipate and then come back together in one instant; it was an incredibly odd feeling. One minute he was staring at Ciche and the next he was staring right at an altar with two orbs on it, the Two and Four Star Dragon Balls!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Great” said Acress “We can just grab em and get out” as she took a step forward a red light activated on the ceiling and an alarm blared out. Several robots dropped from the ceiling, one grabbed the Dragon Balls and flew out of a door that had appeared in the wall, while the others engaged their blasters and began pounding Olant and Acress with laser fire. Olant and Acress easily dodged each shot and Acress created two pink palls of ki in her palms, she threw them at the nearest robot, and the two balls collided with it, destroying him, before ricocheting off and hitting each other robot consecutively, destroying each. Acress blasted open the wall and Olant fired two snipe finger beams at the escaping robot, cutting its arms off, Acress leaped and grabbed the two Dragon Balls. The ground began to shake and the roof above the Saiyans caved in revealing a sky as red as that of Hell. The walls to their sides folded down and Olant found himself staring down a familiar figure, he was taller than Olant, he had spiky silver hair, and wore white battle armor with a black jumpsuit. Olant gasped. “We’re surrounded” shouted Acress as she gestured at Olant to look around him, there was more than one of the figure, in fact there were four.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “What the…” Olant began

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Hell… exactly!” spoke a small metal orb with a single red eye, the orb was floating just to the side of the entity in front of Olant. It was one of Ciche’s spy orbs. But that was impossible, Ciche only had two and they were both back in his garage in the Otherworld.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant gasped, that voice, these figures, how!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The small orb hovered over to a mech that had slowly appeared from the ground, the orb inserted itself into a socket in the mech’s head area, and a holographic face appeared.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I suppose you’re wondering how exactly I did all this” said Indus as the four silver haired Commander Zenkai duplicates advanced forward.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Indus… impossible” Olant gasped

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “No-not so” said the lead Zenkai Bot, the one directly in front of Olant

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Then How” Olant said angrily “How are you here!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “It’s simple” Indus said menacingly “We’re not, we’re still down in Hell. BUT. Think back to your last moments down there, You saw me order Zenkai to shoot at ‘you’ right” Olant could think of nothing to do but nod, Acress looked very confused, she had no idea what was going on. “Well” the mech gestured “Ciche had obviously been trying to recall his spy drones that he had used to allow you to follow the PTO Soldiers to the Bloody Pond, Zenkai shot one down with a weak ki blast and I was able to get to it and hijack it”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant finally understood “Nothing from Hell can go into heaven…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Except something originally from heaven” Indus said “IM A GENIUS” he cackled and Zenkai joined in. He stopped an continued, “and when you teleported back into the living world I made sure that this little orb was inside your ship! Then I immediately got to work, I activated a special code to make this planet appear here, it’s a Tuffle craft that I finalized on P2 and then launched into space in case I ever needed a backup base, at the same time I sent some drones to the two neighbouring Planets to collect the Dragon Balls located there”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Indus’ eyes grew wide “Once collect the Dragon Balls we will live again! And all you Saiyans will die”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The Prime Zenkai Bot, which was obviously being controlled by the commander himself from Hell, at gestured and the other three Zenkai Bots flew toward the Saiyans. Olant and Acress took up battle positions.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant powered up into his False Super Saiyan state and launched himself at two of the bots, he grabbed their right arms and ripped them off, and they kicked off him and fired consecutive energy waves which he easily managed to deflect back at them, causing heavy damage.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The third attacked Acress, Indus and Zenkai watched intently, expecting the bot to easily defeat the young Saiyaness, especially due to the fact that she could not use her hands without dropping the Dragon Balls. The bot flew at her... and she shot a powerful kick at its head, completely obliterating it.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant fired a Double Cannon at the two bots he was fighting and destroyed them. He then floated down and landed next to Acress. ‘HOW?” questioned Indus as Zenkai looked on with awe “Those bots had the same power as Zenkai!”. Acress walked over to Olant and handed him a Dragon Ball, Olant lighted up a small Supremacy Nova in his hand and threw it down, sending it straight towards Sudni Iaknez’s machine core. Acress grabbed Olant’s shoulder and teleported the two back to their ship.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Indus snapped out of his shock as the first explosion sounded; down in Hell he typed a command. “EVACUATION IN PROGRESS” announced a speaker as Mecha Indus’ feet lit up and he began flying out, Zenkai Bot Prime’s eyes glowed green as he took a brief look around, a scowl on his face, before jumping and gaining a hold on Mecha Indus’ leg. The two jetted off into space with a few surviving robot capsules following them as the planet exploded.

Chapter 6 – Oceanic Journey
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant, Acress, and Ciche were all asleep, it was about time for a break, as their ship headed for Planet Aqua – a planet composed entirely of water. This would be no problem for the Saiyans, as Ciche had known this prior due to research and as such their ship was suitable for sea travel, he had also prepared battle scuba gear in case necessary.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> It was about three hours before the ship arrived, Ciche left his room in order to guide the ship down onto the Planet, he converted the ship to sub-mode and lowered the ship down onto the planet, as he breached the clouds there was only ocean as far as the eye could see. Ciche checked his scanners, there were several dangerous fish living on the Planet with moderate power levels but nothing more. Though interestingly a power level just over the horizon was far above average, Ciche hoped they would not meet it, as it was higher than Olant’s base form in power.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The ship breached the sea and began to descended into the ocean depths, it was still very bright as they had landed in the tropical section of the planet. Ciche picked up a speaker and talked into it “Olant, Acress, get up we’re here”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> A few seconds later Olant walked out wearing his usual casual clothes with his Saiyan chest piece on top, Acress came out just wearing casual clothes. “You’ll need to remove the chest piece” Ciche said to Olant as he pulled out three Battle Scuba Gear and handed one each to Olant and Acress before he began putting his on.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Won’t these cause problems with energy manipulation?” Acress asked

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Nope” Ciche said “I designed them, they’ll work perfectly”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> As they finished getting into their Scuba Gear, Ciche attached two bulky metallic gauntlets to his arms and then tapped the Dragon Radar. “Dragon Ball is west” he said “It seems to be farther below sea level than we are”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche gestured and Olant and Acress followed him into a room, the room’s door shut tight and Ciche pressed a button on his scuba gear, causing another door to open and water to flood in. Olant and Acress began swimming out of the door and were shocked as Ciche flew past them “I told you it does not mess with ki, we can still fly even in water”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The three Saiyans headed toward the Dragon Ball’s location with no resistance whatsoever, as they neared the location, a boulder came out of nowhere and hit Ciche; he was knocked down into a dark trench.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche rubbed his head as he hit the sea floor, he pressed a button on his glove and his suit began glowing – allowing him to see, he turned and found himself face to face with a giant eel’s head, the eel screeched as it opened its mouth and began chasing him, Ciche zipped away further down the trench and the eel followed. Ciche dodged through holes in the rocks until he found an area that the eel would not be able to follow, he ducked into it and the eel swam past.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche went out of the hole and activated his scouter, the massive eel was moving in the opposite direction and Ciche began swimming back the way he came. As he swam through the caves he found that there were aquatic glow worms on the walls, and switched off his light to preserve power.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> After a few minutes he realised he was lost but noticed light up ahead, he began swimming towards it as his scouter finally locked onto a signal and found his co-ordinates; he was far too deep for there to be light… The light moved and then dashed straight at him, as it got closer Ciche could see that it had a fish’s face some kind of Angler Fish he thought. Ciche kicked off the wall and spun round, as he did so he pressed a button on his gauntlet and made a fist. Three green energy blades sprung out from the knuckles area and Ciche swung as he dived past the fish, cutting it in half, the noise attracted more of the anglers to the area, and Ciche activated the other gauntlet.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> One of the Anglers opened its mouth and fired an energy wave at Ciche, who raised his blades up to reflect it back. The rest of the anglers moved away in alarm as the blast hit the fish and roasted its body. One charged at Ciche, but he dodged to its left and cut down onto it, a group of the fish fired combined energy waves from their mouth but Ciche spun himself rapidly and reflected all of the energy blasts around the cave, causing it to begin collapsing.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The anglers sped away in fear and Ciche shut off his claws as pushed off the cave wall and back into another area. He tapped his scouter and the built in positioning system scanned for Olant and Acress signatures, he quickly began flying in their direction when the massive eel reappeared…

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Great” Ciche said to himself as he felt the eel’s presence behind him, he activated the jets in his boots and heard the eel screech as the flames burnt it, Ciche accelerated towards the cave top and raised his hands forward, releasing a burst of energy through the tips of his gauntlets as he launched himself through and out the other side.

Chapter 7 - Guardian
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant saw Ciche come flying out of the rock followed by the giant eel, and raised his hand in the air to prepare an energy wave. Acress beat him to it “Dominance Burster” she yelled as she shot a two handed energy wave at the eel, the eel recoiled as the blast came towards it and tried to swim away, but the blast hit it directly in the head, killing it.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche let out a sigh of relief “Thanks”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The three Saiyans continued on, with Ciche leading them using his Radar. The three suddenly found that the water suddenly stopped, they were hovering above a bowl-like platform and they were surrounded by water… but none of it was falling, it was as if they were in a massive bubble. There was a large house in the middle of the bowl-like area and the Saiyans flew down towards it. They landed to find a green humanoid entity with antenna coming out is head waiting for them, he wearing a pure white Gi and held a spear in one hand, to his right there was another humanoid with a fish’s face.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Welcome” spoke the green humanoid “my name is Esiw and I am the guardian of this planet” he gestured at his companion “This is Oish; he is a member of the Gish people native to this planet and my attendant”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Gish bowed respectively “Greetings” he said

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I have been watching your travels” said Esiw “You are competing with two other groups for my Dragon Balls”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Your Dragon Balls?” asked Olant

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Ah! Of course” said Ciche “You must be a Namekian”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Esiw nodded “You are wishing to use them to bring yourselves back to life, and—“

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Hold on a sec” Acress said “we are competing with two groups?” she looked at Olant who now looked confused “But we’ve only met one”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “The others are a group of Planet Trade members; they have collected one Dragon Ball, and are currently collecting another”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Damn!” said Ciche “We’ll need to go soon then”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Do you have your Dragon Ball here?” Acress questioned

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Yes, normally I would not give it to anyone, but you three are using it for a noble enough cause, you are determined” he then looked at Ciche “and while you are the weakest of the group, you still passed my test”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Test?” he asked

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I materialised the boulder to drop you into the eel trench, and I scrambled your radar, but you survived due to you ingenuity” He gestured to Oish “Go and collect the Dragon Ball” Oish nodded and ran inside the house

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “When you collect all seven my eternal dragon, Shindraco, will appear” Esiw said “You must refer to him as eternal dragon, and then speak your wish, he will grant it, it is not a problem for him to bring the three of you back to life”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Oish returned with the Dragon Ball and handed it to Ciche “Thanks” Ciche spoke, Oish bowed again as he returned to his master’s side.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The three Saiyans began floating away when Olant turned around “Which planet are these Planet Traders on at the moment?” he asked

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “It is a volcanic planet, Planet Magmas” Esiw replied

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant nodded “Thank you”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Esiw smiled “Good luck to you three” he said as the three Saiyans disappeared back into the water.

Chapter 8 – Revenge of the Unit
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The three Saiyans were approaching Planet Magmas at a steady pace, Olant stared at the planet from a viewing window, it was a hot red-orange colour, and the land was a dark brown colour.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress walked up to Olant “Hopefully these Planet Traders will have already grabbed the Dragon Ball” she said “We can take it, blow em up, and get going”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant nodded but looked uncertain What Planet Trade members would come to this galaxy he though as they neared the planet. Ciche’s voice came over the loudspeaker “We’re about to breach atmosphere, in 3, 2, 1!” they breached the atmosphere and a burst of lava hit the ship, the advanced shield that Ciche had installed had been switched to heat resistant mode, so the ship was undamaged and the interior temperature remained the same. The ship landed on a relatively safe hilltop. Olant and Acress walked out of the door and into the blistering heat, Ciche followed out moments later and pressed a switch to shut the door, before activating the interior cooler to cool the ship down for their return. “I got us as close to the Dragon Balls signal as possible” Ciche said as he tapped his radar “Huh… the Dragon Ball is heading right for us” as he heard that Olant shot into the air, and Acress followed him. Ciche activated his jet boots and sped after them.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant stopped as he saw two robed figures heading for them, the two figures stopped as they saw Olant “You” said the smaller figure, the small figure gestured at the larger and they both dropped down onto a large rocky platform. Olant followed down, joined by Acress and Ciche. The figures powered up, shattering their robes and revealing their identities.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant raised an eyebrow as he stared down the two figures, the smaller was female, with light blue skin and green Mohawk-like hair, she wore a black leather outfit “Villi” said Olant. The other was a massive yellow skinned lizard wearing black battle armor with spiked pauldrons, his body was covered in red spots, and he had pure red eyes “Whipping” Olant remembered his name. “You two were with the Destructive Unit, how did you survive Mild’s destruction?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Your idiot friend didn’t finish us off” said Villi “A mistake”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Whipping continued, his voice very rough and deep “We escaped in our space pods as soon as we saw Icer’s ship leave, and then we came to this galaxy to collect the Dragon Balls”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “After a bit of research of course” Villi finished

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Stand down and give us the Dragon Ball” Olant commanded “You are no match for us, Bage beat you back on Mild, I defeated Milkus, and I am even stronger now”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Villi laughed “Don’t underestimate us. We too are much stronger than even Milkus was, courtesy of some special training”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Villi and Whipping both yelled as they powered up.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche tapped his scouter and his eyes widened “Villi is at 9,700,000” he gasped “and Whipping is even higher, with 10,600,000!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant powered up into his Super Saiyan state and prepared to fight his enemies. Villi leaped at Olant and created an energy sphere in her palm. She launched the sphere at Olant, who smacked it with his arm, as the sphere hit Olant it split into twelve smaller spheres and they each bombarded Olant, while recovering from the shock Whipping grabbed Olant by his face and smacked him into the ground headfirst, before proceeding to run at his max speed, painfully dragging Olant along with him, Whipping stopped and leapt into the air, as Olant tried to get up Villi kicked him back into the ground, and Whipping came straight down, landing on Olant with his full force. Olant’s eyes widened and he gagged. Whipping and Villi did not let up, and they began firing a barrage of punches and kicks at Olant.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> On the sidelines, Ciche looked terrified, not knowing what to do, their power was so far beyond his! And he couldn’t risk even trying to attack with his blades and one hit from Villi or Whipping would likely kill him.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress looked at the scene angrily, she also had no idea what to do, but then she went for it. Acress created two pink energy balls in her hands and tossed them at the ground, causing them to bounce up and hit the two PTO members. She then used instant transmission and delivered a kick to the side of Villi’s head, her attacks had not even fazed her two adversaries, and Villi hardly looked as she slapped Acress away. Acress went flying into a nearby rock “Stupid little girl” Villi laughed as she turned and prepared an energy wave, she winked at Acress “You don’t know who you’re dealing with”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress’ eyes grew wide with anger and her aura began to rise, it shook her hair. Olant screamed in pain. Ciche desperately prepared an energy wave and closed his eyes as he prepared to fire. Acress roared and her pupils disappeared, her hair gained a red tinge, and her aura turned gold. Acress dashed at Villi, who yelped with surprise as she was sent flying by the force of Acress attack. Whipping was about to hit Olant again but stopped and stared with surprise as Acress began beating around Villi with rapid punches and kicks. Whipping stared at Olant, who lay bruised on the ground with both eyes closed, before launching himself towards Acress to help Villi, Olant’s right eye whipped open, he snarled and shot his arm out, grabbing Whipping’s leg, Whipping felt himself stop in mid-air and was even more surprised when he felt himself falling backwards as Olant smashed him into the ground.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant surrounded his fist with Supreme Energy and delivered his heaviest punch to Whipping’s head, almost knocking the brute unconscious in one blow; Olant grabbed Whipping and tossed him ahead, before flying after him and delivering a heavy kick to send him flying into the ground.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Villi tried to wrestle out of Acress hold, but found herself completely outmatched by the False Super Saiyan. Acress cried out as she released a Super Explosive Wave from her body, and Villi screamed as the energy enveloped her body.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Whipping understood that he and his ally had no chance of victory and flew into the air; Olant prepared a Supremacy Cannon, but was shocked as Whipping landed beside Ciche and grabbed him in a can-opener hold.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Stop” Whipping commanded “Allow us to leave or else I will break this fool like a twig!” Acress was holding the almost unconscious Villi by the neck, her fist raised to deliver a punch, but she stopped and turned to look at Whipping, Olant let his arms fall to his sides, calling off the Supremacy Cannon. “Good” said Whipping as he pointed at Villi “Toss her to me!” Acress angrily did as commanded. Whipping looked at the two Super Saiyans before he began flying away, “Don’t try anything!” he said, but still kept watch on them in case. Villi opened her eyes and realised what was happening, she touched her scouter and two space pods burst out of the ground, flying straight up to the two Planet Traders, Villi belted herself into hers and smirked triumphantly at her adversaries, she mockingly held out the Dragon Ball that Whipping and herself had collected. At that moment Ciche’s eyes opened and he winked, he activated his energy blades and drove them into Whipping’s arm, Whipping cried out as he fell back into his pod, caught off guard, Villi was shocked as Ciche grabbed her Dragon Ball, and flew down to Olant and Acress. Villi stared angrily at the Saiyans, but quickly activated her pod, causing the door to shut and her to jet off. Whipping did the same, a snarl on his face as he held his damaged arm, green blood dripping from the wound. The two pods jetted away into the atmosphere.

Chapter 9 – To Eros
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant powered down from his Super Saiyan form and watched proudly as Acress powered down from her False Super Saiyan state. She walked over to Olant and came close to his face, Olant smiled but then she closed her eyes and turned around “Looks like I’m a Super Saiyan too now Olant!” she grinned “And I had to save you” she laughed.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant smirked back as he transformed into a False Super Saiyan, and the into a real Super Saiyan “Your using a premature version of the form” he said, tilting his head slightly “Mine is twice as strong”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress stopped laughing “Don’t care, it’s good enough”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant laughed happily “Yes!” he spoke “Yes it is”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche finished walking over to his friends, he was massaging his head from where Whipping had held him “If you two are done” he said in an annoyed voice “I got the Dragon Ball, you two would never have succeeded without me!” he looked at Acress “so… could I get a head massage”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “No” said Acress “All you get is a ‘Job well done!’ from me”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “And a pat on the back” said Olant “you deserve recognition, we could not have gotten this far without you” Olant patted Ciche’s back.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche sighed and handed the Dragon Ball to Olant, before pressing a button on his gauntlet, their ship flew over towards them. Ciche walked inside and was followed by Olant and Acress, Olant shut the door. Ciche arrived at the control panel and tapped a few buttons, two blips appeared on the screen “I put a tracking device on their pods” he explained “It’s tiny, so you two would probably not have seen it, they most certainly did not” Ciche checked their flight path “their heading to Eros, that’s where they have their last Dragon Ball”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant looked at the screen “We’re heading there then”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress slumped down into a chair “and those stupid Planet Traders will be there, but we can take em”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant smiled at the comment before speaking up “If we are going there, and so are the Destructive Unit, then Indus and Zenkai will head there as well”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Okay” Ciche sighed “We get there, we have one last battle which Im sure we can handle, and then we summon the Dragon with plenty of time to spare”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The three Saiyans stared out of the view screen as Ciche activated the ignition

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Eros  thought Olant Here we come before his eyes closed and he collapsed due to his injuries.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress quickly grabbed Olant as he collapsed “You have a healing chamber I suppose?” she asked Ciche

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Yeh, just over here” he gestured at her to follow; they entered the next room and placed Olant inside the chamber.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche returned to the pilot station, and tapped a command into the keyboard, Olant had earlier told him that sending this signal to Planet P2 would bring help.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Four Hours Later 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The Saiyan Squad’s Class-3 Planet Trade Invasion Pod touched down on Planet Eros, it was early morning of the Saiyan’s second day in the living and Ciche was exhausted, he headed inside his room in order to get some sleep, it would be about an hour before Olant fully recovered and they all needed a break.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress went outside and spent some time collecting sticks for a fire, after collecting a decent bundle she lit the sticks on fire and sat by them on a chair that she had found inside the Invasion Pod. It was after about ten minutes that she heard a heavy thump and her eyes flew open, Ciche burst out of the ship, his eyes wide “What’s going on?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> In the distance the two Saiyans could just make out pods falling from the sky, as they disappeared from view more tremors were sent through the ground, signalling their landing. Ciche quickly tapped his scouter, nothing came up, he tried the Dragon Radar and found that another Dragon Ball was approaching the Planet at a fast pace.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Look” Acress pointed and Ciche could just make out a huge number of figures heading towards them from the horizon.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche’s shoulders slumped “Those must be Indus’ soldiers, and the Dragon Ball approaching must be with Indus and Zenkai”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “We can’t let them get to the ship!” said Acress as she took to the air and fired a Dominance Burster at the wave of approaching soldiers, before zipping off to face them.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche ran back into the ship and geared himself up, strapping on his paralyse glove, and then his energy blade gauntlets, he was about to run out of the door when he remembered… the help he had sent for… Ciche grabbed a small object from the counter before taking to the air himself and jetting off to the explosion covered battlefield.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress dodged the energy blasts fired by Indus’ robotic commandos and tossed Ricochet Balls at the robots, timing it perfectly so that the balls would bounce off the soldiers and create a domino effect. She had taken out the entire army before Ciche even arrived.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Wow” said Ciche, he eyes wide “You didn’t even need my help”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress was about to reply when a much larger craft appeared in the sky and came crashing down onto the planet’s surface.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The door of the craft opened and the massive figure of Mecha Indus appeared, standing on his shoulder with his arms crossed was Zenkai Bot Prime.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The two figures approached the Saiyans. Indus smirked as he spoke “I see you managed to take out my I-Droids” he raised his hands as if to clap but then stopped “Not much of a feat really, I was hoping you would be caught off guard and they would destroy your ship”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Zenkai hovered off Indus’ soldier and slowly lowered himself to the ground to face the Saiyans.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> It was at this moment that the fully healed Villi and Whipping decided to show their faces the two stepped out from behind a nearby rock and quickly powered up from their supressed states.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Villi looked at Indus while Whipping cracked his knuckles “Who are you, what do you want” she asked calmly

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “We are here for the Dragon Balls, Planet Trader” Indus said ‘And—“ Indus was interrupted as Villi gave a signal and Whipping dashed at Indus and launched a powerful punch at him, Indus caught the fist and Whipping attempted to go in for another with his other hand, but Indus managed to grab him by their wrist before he could, the two wrestling for dominance over each other.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Villi launched into the air, and energy ball in her hand and prepared to throw it at Indus when Mecha Indus’ chest opened up, revealing a TV Screen.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Villi, Whipping, stop!” shouted Milkus, whose face had appeared on the screen, Villi immediately powered off her energy ball and Whipping released his hold on Indus, who also let his arms fall peacefully to his sides.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress and Ciche stood in fighting positions, ready for any surprise attacks. “Milkus I thought you were dead” Villi said in a confused tone.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Milkus laughed “I am!” he spoke “And so are these two” he looked up at Indus’ holographic face “Indus” he then turned to the prime Zenkai bot “and Zenkai” Milkus looked back at Villi and Whipping “we are in Hell, but Indus managed to hijack one of the Saiyan’s drones and produce these mechs, you must help them gather the Dragon Balls”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Although now much more powerful than her former commander, she still held him in high esteem and trusted him “Of course general!” she bowed respectfully, before looking at Whipping, who nodded.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Indus spoke “Sorry Milkus, but Im gonna have to shut off the screen now, all power is going in to battle mode”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Of course” Milkus gave his former subordinates a quick salute before the screen went blank and Mecha Indus’ chest closed up.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The four villains turned to face the two Saiyans, who stood ready to fight.

Chapter 10 – Fight for the Dragon Balls
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Villi laughed and stared down Acress “Silly little girl! You got me by surprise last time but it won’t happen again” Villi ignited her aura and flew at Acress, who grunted as she took on her False Super Saiyan form and leapt towards Villi, the two met mid-air and began firing punches and kicks at each other.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche had quietly slipped his hand into his pocket and taken out the small seed, he gripped the seed tightly as he activated his energy blades and leaped at Indus “So the weakling would dare attack me” Indus laughed “I’ll give you some playmates then!” four holes opened up and a gang of Hypamen leapt out, just as the holes closed Ciche grabbed a chunk of dirt up in the hand which he was holding the seed in and tossed it into one of the gaps. Indus looked confused and did a quick scan “HAH!” he exclaimed “Dirt? You think that will shut off my machinery? Think again!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The four Hypamen jumped at Ciche, who held up his upgraded Paralyse Glove and froze them all into place at once, before zipping into the air and cleaving them in half with his energy blades.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Why you—“began Indus before regaining his composure “You are stronger than I expected!” he took a step forwards before Whipping reached out and stopped Indus from continuing

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I’ll take care of him” the giant rumbled

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Of course” Indus stepped back “He’s all yours my friend”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “YOU’RE GOING TO PAY FOR HURTING MY ARM” Whipping bellowed as he raised his arms into the air, sparks appeared in his palms before he moved them down at high speeds, two electric whips forming. “Time to die” Whipping said as he lashed the whip towards Ciche, Ciche raised his energy blade up in Defense, and then dodged to the side as Whipping’s other whip came lashing down.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche leapt into the air Whipping aimed his whip and lased it straight at him, but Ciche raised his right arm and activated his paralyse glove, freezing the titan. Ciche zipped at Whipping, and aimed straight for his face. The paralyse effect wore off and Whipping moved to the side just in time to dodge the slash, but Ciche turned as he passed   and managed to hit the back of Whipping’s neck with a powerful slash.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Whipping collapsed onto his knees in pain, one of his energy whips being called off as he reached to stop the flow of blood.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress acrobatically jumped from rock to rock as Villi flew after her, rapidly firing ki bullets at the Saiyaness. Acress had not had this transformation long but could tell that it was running out, she threw a ricochet ball at the ground below her, Villi’s eyes widened as the orb flew at her and exploded upon contact.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> As Villi shook off the effect of the ball she raised her head and saw Acress flying towards her, Acress fired a barrage of punches and kicks at Villi, who was knocked to the ground beside Whipping.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Indus nodded at Zenkai who leapt over towards Mecha Indus, his chest opened up to reveal a charging station. Zenkai inserted himself into the charging station and energy began flowing into his body, his eyes began turning green. Acress leapt at Mecha Indus who fired a full power energy wave out of his hand, Acress dodged to the side but was hit by a group of missiles that Indus had launched from a compartment from his back, the missiles exploded with heavy force and knocked Acress back.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “CHARGING 50% COMPLETE” the on-board computer spoke

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche cried out “NOW”, Indus staggered to his knees as a barrage of energy waves began flying out of the area where Ciche had earlier launched the seed. The blasts cut through the charging stations cables and Zenkai collapsed onto the ground.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Zenkai snarled angrily as he stepped up. At the same time a glowing green Saibaman burst out of Indus mech and flew over to Ciche landing beside him, Ciche patted the Saibamen’s head, this was the help that Olant had mentioned “Indus. Meet Frank” the Saibaman giggled.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “What have you done to that Saibaman” questioned Indus

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I used the schematics from your Hypamen to upgrade him” spoke Ciche as Frank powered up, increasing his glow “He’s far more powerful than your designs now!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Indus shook his head “No! I will not be out done by a Saiyan” he launched three Hypamen out of his compartments and they flew at Frank, laughing as they went. Frank raised both his arms and fired a bright green energy wave using energy from his glow. The blast hit the Hypamen and completely disintegrated them. Indus snarled angrily

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Zenkai got to his feet “Indus” he spoke “I’ll take care of them, 50% power is enough isn’t it”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Indus’ snarl vanished and his eyes lit up “Of course! Go ahead my friend”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Zenkai raised his arms to his sides and clenched his fists, his green eyes glowing, his aura lit up golden and his silver coated metallic hair changing to a golden colour.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Here he is!” Indus spoke “Super Zenkai Bot”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche was speechless “H-How”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Hgrauuh!” Frank leaped at Zenkai, his claws prepared to swipe at the robotic Saiyan, Zenkai backhanded Frank, sending him flying into a nearby rock.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “When my prime Zenkai Bot’s power is charged to 50% he can transform into an emulation of the ‘Super Saiyan’ form” explained Indus “Now Zenkai, Kill those fools!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Gladly” Zenkai smirked as he fired off is ki burst attack, the Blast ZX, at Ciche, Ciche raised his swords to block the attack but Acress, and now a False Super Saiyan once again, swept over and smacked the attack away. She charged at Zenkai and her fist flew at his face. Without blinking, Zenkai grabbed her fist and tossed her at Ciche, Acress smacked into him and the two went tumbling into the ground.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Zenkai hovered over to Indus and landed beside him, he raised his arms and prepared his Blast ZX, Indus laughed madly as his palm opened up and revealed a red cannon.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “HAH!” yelled Zenkai as he shot the Blast ZX

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “HYPER CANNON FIRE!” yelled Indus with glee as he launched his blast, the two blasts merged as they met and soared towards the Saiyans. Whipping and Villi stared in awe at the power that the blast was outing.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> In the distance, an even more massive Ki suddenly exploded outwards.

Chapter 11 – One Million
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> As the blast closed in onto the two Saiyans, who were finding it hard to get back up. Olant appeared as if from nowhere, he powered up into a Super Saiyan briefly and reflected the blast into the air, the blast flew into the sky and hit one of the planet’s moons, destroying it.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant powered down as his four adversaries looked in awe, Olant stared angrily at them before turning and helping his two allies to their feet.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Zenkai, still in his ‘Super Saiyan’ form, looked at Indus “Power Level?” he asked

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche stared at Olant in awe as he tapped his scouter.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Both Ciche and Indus stepped back as they reported their readings “One Million!” the two said in unison.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Zenkai’s eyes grew wide with worry as he turned to face Olant, who powered back up into a Super Saiyan.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Zenkai leapt into the air, energy swelling around his body, Villi leaped into the air, and two energy balls formed in her palms. Olant disappeared and re-appeared in front of Villi, he raised his hand and fired a Kiai at her, sending her flying and forcefully crashing into the ground, her back snapped as she landed.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Zenkai turned to face Olant’s back and roared loudly as his fired an energized punch at him, the punch past through Olant, revealing that it was in fact an afterimage. Zenkai’s eyes widened as he felt Olant’s palm touch his back. Olant fired a single handed Supremacy Cannon at Zenkai, destroying his body, Zenkai’s head fell and Olant kicked it towards Indus, Indus opened one palm to catch it but Olant raised his finger and fired an energy blast, obliterating what was left of the Zenkai Bot.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Indus’ eyes widened and he began backing away. Suddenly, Whipping leapt up behind Olant, his arms outstretched. He stopped mid-air and fell to the ground, gagging. Ciche stood over him, his green energy blade embedded into the giant’s back, he lifted it out and walked over to Whipping’s head “D-Damn you” whimpered Whipping, Ciche raised his sword and plunged it into Whipping’s brain. Whipping’s arm snapped up quickly, causing Ciche to jump back, in his last moments Whipping crushed his own scouter.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Indus’ eyes grew wide and he began cackling, his insanity setting in once again. His chest opened up, revealing a massive red orb “FIVE SECONDS TILL DETONATION” the computer announced.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “DIE SAIYAN!!!” Indus leapt at Olant, who jetted up to Indus and delivered a Supreme Energy powered kick at the mad Tuffle. “DAMN YOU OLANT” Indus cried as he was sent flying into the air “YOU HAVE’NT SEEN THE LAST OF M—” Mecha Indus exploded, the force of his Hyper Bomb causing a sonic boom in the air.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant lowered down to the ground and powered down to his base form, he let out a sigh and stared ahead. A Dragon Ball fell from where Mecha Indus had exploded and he began walking to collect it.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche and Acress ran over to him, Frank flying after them “LANTY!” exclaimed Acress “That power! It was incredible”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I did not expect that you could get that much from a single Zenkai!” Ciche said

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant smiled “It feels incredible to have so much energy”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “You destroyed those idiots like they were nothing” said Acress as she fist pumped the air

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Well…” said Olant “After I got out of the chamber, I sensed the massive energy from Indus and Zenkai’s blasts and I came here as quickly as I could”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The three arrived at the Dragon Ball “And this makes… six?” Ciche said in confusion.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Then where’s the last one?” Acress questioned

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant gestured at Ciche to check his radar “The last Dragon Ball… is heading towards us? NO wait, now it’s…” Ciche’s eyes widened “Right behind us”

Chapter 12 – The Strongest Planet Trader
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The three Saiyans turned around and found themselves facing a massive entity, Olant could tell that he was the same race as the elite soldier Burter, only this entity was orange, twice as tall as even the ginormous Whipping, and did not wear an Armored chest-piece. In this left hand he held a Dragon Ball.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Hello Saiyans” hissed the orange giant “My name is Gelato” he looked around, spotting the bodies of Villi and Whipping “and it appears you have killed my students”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “How did you know to come here?” asked Ciche

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “When Whipping’s scouter stopped transmitting I knew something was wrong, so I rushed here to find out what” Gelato stated “You surprise me, I thought that they alone would be able to easily take care of the three of you” he stopped, but then continued “It matters not, for once I defeat you I will take your Dragon Balls and my students will be resurrected” he began powering up.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant and Acress looked at Ciche “Power Level?” they asked

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche tapped his scouter and gasped “It—it’s the highest reading I’ve ever seen! Ninety-million!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant was shocked and spoke quietly “That’s even higher than Icer…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Gelato finished powering up and stared down the three Saiyans “Which of you wishes to fight me first?” he questioned

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche looked down in disgrace “Im sorry guys, I stand no chance”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress looked ready to fight and raised her fists, but then lowered them and dropped her shoulders “Olant… You can beat him can’t you?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Let’s find out” Olant powered up into his Super Saiyan state as Acress and Ciche backed away.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant and Gelato faced each other down, Olant leaped at Gelato and threw a punch at the giant’s head, Gelato’s fist shot up and caught the fist, he threw Olant down and kneed him in the stomach, before rapidly firing punches into his gut and then throwing him into a nearby rock, Olant tried to get up, but before he could even move Gelato had swooped over to him, scooped him up, and was dragging him along the ground. Gelato threw him and then created a ring of energy balls and shot them at Olant, the orbs hit him as he fell, launching him back up into the air. Gelato was there immediately, he smashed him back down to the ground with a Double Axe Handle and then raised his arm into the air, charging a massive orange energy sphere and throwing it down onto Olant. The explosion was massive and a huge crater formed. Gelato flew down to the centre of the crater, where Olant lay with his face in the dirt.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I was hoping that you would be more of a challenge honestly” Gelato stated disappointedly, he turned around and began walking in the direction of Acress and Ciche before stopping when he heard a rustle in the sand behind him. Gelato turned and saw Olant standing, a grim look on his face. But the… Olant smiled “Hah! Hahahaha!” Olant laughed.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Gelato looked confused “You stand no chance” he tilted his head slightly “Have you lost your mind?” he questioned

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant clenched his fists “Gelato, you are pretty strong, but this is only half of my power” Olant powered up, his hair spiking and electricity surrounding him “Now Gelato! Here’s my full power!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Gelato smiled at the thought of a challenge and dashed at Olant, Olant stayed still until the last second but then moved to the side and kneed the massive lizard in his stomach; Olant front flipped over him and pushed Supreme Energy into his feet before smacking them into Gelato’s back, forcing the giant into the ground.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Gelato leaped to his feet, his contact with the ground causing a minor tremor, and lighted up his fists with fiery red energy, Olant’s fists glowed with Supreme Energy as Gelato began throwing punches at Olant. Gelato aimed low, but Olant caught his fist and released a small burst of energy, causing Gelato to stumble backwards, Olant zipped behind him and kicked him in the back, causing Gelato to stumble back forward. Gelato snarled and threw a flaming fist at Olant, who dodged it by leaping into the air and then roundhouse kicked Gelato’s fist with his foot, causing his wrist to snap. Ciche and Acress watched as Olant began to completely dominate Gelato, he smacked him in the head twice with his knee, and then elbowed the back of his head, smashing him into the ground.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant jumped back as Gelato let out a massive roar, causing a fiery tornado to surround him, Gelato’s body was surrounded by an orange inferno as he flew into the air and then zipped a quarter of a field away from the Saiyans.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “YOU’RE GOOD SAIYAN” shouted Gelato as he pushed his arms forward “BUT IM BETTER” he pushed his flaming aura out through his palms, shooting a massive stream of flaming ki at the Saiyans.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant raised his arms up to his sides with his palms facing upwards. “SUPREMACY CANNON” he shouted as he placed his arms in front of him and fired the red energy wave at Gelato.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “SUPREMACY CANNON” Acress said as she transformed into a False Super Saiyan, raised her arms to her sides, and fired her own Supremacy Cannon into Olant’s wave, the two combining, and shooting up, easily overwhelming Gelato’s blast. Gelato used his incredible speed and powered up another flare aura, this team using it as a shield against the combined Supremacy Cannon. Ciche shot up above Gelato and came straight down, cutting his back open with his energy blade. Gelato cried out, the shock causing him to lose his flaming aura and the double Supremacy Cannon to overwhelm him. Gelato’s eyes widened with even more shock as he was disintegrated by the blast, and then… it was over.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche grabbed the Dragon Ball that Gelato had dropped and flew over to Olant and Acress.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant looked at his two friends “Well, it’s about time we summon this dragon isn’t it?”

Chapter 13 - Shindraco
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> As Ciche placed the last Dragon Ball in the circle of Dragon Balls they had collected, all seven of the mystical orbs were gathered. Frank had been sent back inside the ship the make sure that Indus had not pulled any tricks and hijacked it.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant, Acress, and Ciche stood back, nothing happened…

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Why is nothing happening?” Acress questioned

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche looked mystified, and then a look of realisation came to his face “Of course, Esiw told us we would need to say something”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt">   “What was it?” asked Olant

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Eternal Dragon, hear our wish!” Ciche announced. As he finished speaking the sky began to grow dark and the Dragon Balls began glowing. A massive burst of light exploded out of the balls and from it a dragon appeared. The dragon was a serpent-like Eastern Dragon but had two long wings that hovered at his sides. The Dragon had a pure white body other than its golden eyes and teeth.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I am Shindraco, the Eternal Dragon” announced the white dragon “State your wish”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Olant, you can have the honours” said Ciche, Olant nodded

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Eternal Dragon!” announced Olant “Please bring back all of the members of my Saiyan Squad, and also the members of Acress and Barb’s Saiyan Squads onto this planet!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Your wish…” the dragon announced “Will be granted… if…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant looked confused “What?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Shindraco’s white skin suddenly changed and he turned pitch black, his golden eyes and teeth changed as well, becoming blood crimson “IF YOU CAN CONQUER YOURSELF!”. Shadow tendrils appeared from Shindraco’s fingers and coiled around Acress and Ciche, the tendrils pulled them to Shindraco, who materialised two dark cages, trapping the Saiyans inside, he grasped the cages in his hands.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant leaped into the air, but to his surprise he stopped in mid-flight, something was gripping his leg. Olant looked down and saw a puddle of shadow below him; a hand was reaching out of it. The hand moved and Olant was thrown to the ground. Olant watched in horror as a figure rose out of the ground. The figure had the exact appearance of Olant but completely black, the figure’s eyes and mouth opened, revealing that they were a glowing red colour. The figure smirked.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Olant” spoke ‘Shadolant’ “Conquer Yourself!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Shindraco spoke “DEFEAT YOURSELF AND YOUR WISHES WILL BE GRANTED. LOSE AND YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS WILL DIE!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant got to his feet and stared down Shadolant, In the back of his mind Olant heard the voice of Esiw ''What have I done… the dragon was not meant to turn out like this. Olant you must defeat him! Or the universe could be destroyed by his negative energy!”''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Shadolant’s crimson smile grew wider as he raised his hand, energy swirled around it and a black Supernova began to grow above him. Olant stood ready to stop it but was surprised when Shadolant’s other arm raised up, firing four cutting beams into the Supernova, creating four smaller ones. Shadolant turned around, his back to Olant, and threw the mini-novas into space. Olant could only watch as each nova hit one of four planets, and on contact, destroyed them.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant roared in anger and powered up into his Super Saiyan form, he charged at Shadolant, who turned back around, his aura glowing purple, and caught his fist.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I didn’t realise I was this stupid!” spoke Shadolant as he face palmed himself, Olant struggled as he tried to pull his fist out of Shadolant’s grasp “I am as strong as myself! Thus I cannot win!” he smirked at Olant “We will both die!”. He laughed madly at the situation at hand.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “That can’t be true!” Olant shouted as he powered up further, taking on his Super Saiyan 2 state. As he did so, black lightning began to spark around Shadolant.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant kicked off Shadolant and went flying backwards. Shadolant spoke mockingly “Everything you can do, I can do! You will die here Olant! It’s over for you and your friends”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant powered down from his Super Saiyan 2 state, and Shadolant did the same. Olant quickly raised one hand into the air, creating a Power Ball “If you can do everything that I have done up until this point! Then what if I do something that I have not done since the days of Planet Vegeta!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Ciche cried out from the cage “That might just work! If he can only do things you have done up until this point, his power level in a Great Ape form will only be 70,000!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress grinned “Get him Olant”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Shadolant cackled “Go ahead, it won’t make a difference!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant grunted as the tossed the power ball into the air “We’ll see!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant turned and stared at Acress and Ciche, both trapped in the shadowy cages. He grunted, and then looked straight up at the Power Ball.

Chapter 14 – Conquering Himself
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant’s eyes turned a deep crimson and he began to grow in height, finally taking on the form of a Great Ape. Shadolant’s body went through the exact same change, though he retained the appearance of a shadow and his eyes and mouth were still a deep crimson.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant opened his mouth and fired a Supremacy Cannon out of it. Shadolant dodged out of the way at the last second, the blast hit a large rock and caused it to explode. Olant’s dark counterpart grabbed chunks of the rock and threw them at Olant. Olant roared, causing the rock’s to shatter in mid-air.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant rocketed towards Shadolant and aimed his massive fist straight at his counterparts face. At the last possible moment Shadolant raised his own massive fist and blocked Olant’s attack with his wrist. Shadolant’s massive mouth grinned as he spoke “This form is nothing new!” he announced “My power is exactly the same as yours!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant cried out in anger as he was punched in the stomach by Shadolant. Olant threw a heavy uppercut at Shadolant’s chin, causing him to fly up into the air; Olant caught Shadolant and threw him towards a nearby mountain. Shadolant disappeared into shadowy vapour and then re-appeared in front of Olant, smashing his elbow into Olant’s head and sending him tumbling into the dirt.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Shadolant fired a black Supremacy Cannon out of his mouth, hitting the power ball and destroying it. The two Saiyans reverted back to their base form.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant struggled to one knee.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “C’MON OLANT” shouted Acress as she banged her fists on the cage wall “GET HIM!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I… I can’t win…” Olant said as he tried to stand “He knows all of my techniques, he can use all of my forms… and he’s a shadow, he can’t die!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> At that moment Esiw telepathically spoke to Olant ''There is one way to win! You have to do something you’ve never done before''.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant finally managed to get to his feet and stared down Shadolant once again. “It’s futile” the shadow said “Just lie down and die!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant grinned and transferred Supreme Energy to his fist “It’s a shame you destroyed the Power Ball shadow. A shame for you! I would never have thought to do this as a great ape”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Shadolant looked confused as he transferred his energy to his fist “I can use Supreme Energy too you fool!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant transferred his energy into his left arm, then his leg, then his chest, then his right arm. Olant constantly switched the area where he was transferring his energy, until the energy began moving around his body so fast it was as if it was in all areas at once.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “This is my new technique!” Olant revealed “Hyper Supreme Energy!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “I-Impossible!” Shadolant staggered

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant lunged forward on his Supreme Energy powered feet and then drove a Supreme Energy powered fist straight into Shadolant’s face. Shadolant desperately tried to keep up, but he had no knowledge of this new technique. Olant had invented it on the spot!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant zipped around Shadolant at high speeds, barraging his body with punches and kicks. Shadolant unconsciously kept charging Supreme Energy in each limb in an attempt to duplicate Olant but it was no use, he could not accomplish something Olant had never done before.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant delivered a heavy kick to Shadolant, smashing him into the ground, before taking to the air. “SUPREMACY CANNON” yelled Olant as he fired the power up blast at Shadolant. The shadow screeched as the blast overwhelmed him, transforming the dark entity into a mere puddle of darkness on the ground.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> As Shadolant was defeated, the negative energy which had overtaken Shindraco began disappearing, and he dropped Acress and Ciche to the ground.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant powered off his Hyper Supreme Energy and began walking towards his two friends.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress ran over to Olant and embraced him. Olant patted her on the back and held his thumb up to Ciche.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The three looked at Shindraco, whose back half still retained his dark colouration.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant noticed that Ciche’s eyes had widened and turned around just in time to see Shadolant completely finish rising out of the puzzle once again.

Chapter 15 – The Ultimate Attack
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant moved away from Acress and zipped straight into the air, raising his arms as he did so, Olant took on his Super Saiyan 2 form and charged Supreme Energy into his palms; he created a massive Supernova above his head and shot two blazing Supremacy Cannons into it.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Down below, Shadolant quadrupled in height – becoming the same height as Gelato, his arms and legs lost their muscle mass, becoming similar to Indus’. Shadolant’s body grew into the shape of Zenkai’s armor, and his head shaped into a helmet with two spikes – becoming the spitting image of Icer, finally a glowing red M appeared on his forehead. “YOU CAN BEAT YOURSELF OLANT” the transformed Shadolant screeched in a warped voice “BUT CAN YOU DEFEAT ALL OF YOUR ENEMIES AT ONCE!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant pushed all of his energy into the Supreme Nova; this was it, his Ultimate Supremacy Nova. Olant threw the nova at Shadolant, but unlike with previous Supreme Novas, Olant kept pushing Supremacy Cannons into it as it rocketed towards Shadolant.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Dark tendrils whipped out of Shadolant’s back and grabbed the Supreme Nova, holding it back. Shadolant raised his arms and opened his mouth, charging energy all over his body he fired three blasts into the Supreme Nova.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> The two were locked in place, almost exactly equal, but Shadolant’s blast was slowly pushing forward.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Acress raised her fingers too her forehead and disappeared.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Shadolant’s blast had almost surpassed the Ultimate Supreme Nova in power when Acress reappeared; she was holding the shoulders of Barb and Bage, both in their strongest forms.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Bage had his arms raised in the air, his fists were clenched, and energy was swelling around them. Bage pushed his arms forward “GIANT BUSTER!” he cried as he shot the massive yellow energy wave at Shadolant.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Barb’s palms faced at the ground and two energy balls had formed, they were yellow with red energy surrounding them. Barb moved his arms in front of him, the two balls merging into one “Here’s my new finisher! PRESSURE NUKE!” he shouted. As the blasts were fired Acress, Barb, and Bage disappeared. The two blasts cut through Shadolant’s blast, destroying it, the Ultimate Supreme Nova flew straight at Shadolant, nothing holding it back.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE!” Shadolant screamed as he was completely overwhelmed by the nova, vaporising every essence of his being.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant powered down and landed beside Ciche, who patted him on the shoulder “Nice one boss!” he said.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Shindraco completed his transformation back into his white state. His eyes glowed and then he spoke “Your wish has been granted!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> All at the same moment: Acress, Barb, Bage, Ache, and Kale all appeared in front of Olant. “Look!” said Ciche as he pointed above Olant’s head. Olant had noticed it too there Halo’s had disappeared.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> With a quick flash, Eed, Aspar, and the two members of Acress’ Saiyan Squad: Olivia, and Amara appeared from out of thin air. Acress ran over to her two friends and the three groups hugged. Aspar looked around in a confused manner as Bage walked over to Eed and patted him on the head, all the while looking shyly at Amara.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> At that moment Olant spoke “It’s great that we are all alive again” he stopped briefly “we have a lot of catching up to do, it would probably be best if we went back to our pad in otherworld. The Saiyans formed a circle, with Ciche touching their ship, and Acress teleported them back to Otherworld.

Epilogue – Death Returns
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant smiled as he watched his revived friends speak with each other, he suddenly felt a presence behind him and noticed the Grand Kai standing a short distance away, a grim look on his face. Olant approached him “hey Grand Kai, what’s up?” he questioned in a confused tone.

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;text-indent:36.0pt"> Eros 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Shindraco hovered in his place; he had only granted two wishes and was awaiting his third wish. One would assume that he would leave, but he sensed an entity nearby and was waiting for them to make a wish.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> A figure crawled along the ground. Villi. her back was broken and she could feel her life slipping away, but she had survived her confrontation with Olant and had one final act of defiance planned out.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Eternal Dragon…” she whimpered “Hear my wish…”

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;text-indent:36.0pt"> Otherworld 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Grand Kai spoke “Grab my back Olant… there is something you need to see, and If you hold onto my back you can see what I see” Olant did as he was asked without hesitation.

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;text-indent:36.0pt"> Eros 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Bring back… LORD ICER!” Villi cried out

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Your wish…” Shindraco began.

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;text-indent:36.0pt"> Otherworld 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant gasped in horror of the presence he suddenly felt

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;text-indent:36.0pt"> Eros 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Cannot be granted…” the Eternal Dragon spoke

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Villi’s face fell “Why not?” she questioned.

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;text-indent:36.0pt"> Otherworld 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> A Black Hole materialised in Olant’s view. Olant peered closely at the Black Hole’s core, not wanting to believe what he was witnessing.

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;text-indent:36.0pt"> Eros 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “The entity named Icer is still alive” Shindraco announced.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “HA” Villi laughed “HAHAHAHA” she let out a final laugh before her head hit the dirt and her eyes rolled back in her head. Dead.

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;text-indent:36.0pt"> Otherworld 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant watched as Icer, the same tyrant who had caused the death of himself and his friends on Planet Mild, clawed his way out of the Black Hole at an incredibly slow pace.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> Olant pulled his hands off the Grand Kai’s back, a look of deep shock on his face.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> His friends had noticed and approached him. “Lanty what’s wrong?” Acress asked with concern on her face. Olant faced his friends, shock coming to most of their faces as he spoke.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:36.0pt"> “Icer…” Olant said “He’s alive, we have around three months” he looked at the Grand Kai, who nodded. Olant looked grimly at his friends “Let’s get training…”
