Mistress Paine paused for a second as she overlooked the deserted stretch of beach. She smiled and set off, stopping when she found ‘the right spot’ between the dunes flanking the beach and the sparkling water. She set up the umbrella she'd tucked under one arm, then set up the folding chaise lounger beneath the shade the umbrella offered. Mistress Paine settled into the chaise, stretching languidly, and sighed contentedly. "Perfect," she said, settling back into the chaise, "No Gullwings, no explosions, no swords or blasters or dress spheres…" She smiled, relaxing. "Just… Peace..." Just then, a tremendous explosion rocked the beach, and the water engulfed the beach, carrying Mistress Paine inland before slamming her hard into a field. “What happened to my peace?!” Mistress Paine yelled, head swiveling slightly to find the source of the explosion. A shadow blocked out the sun around Mistress Paine, and a thud filled the air from behind her. Not bothering to rise, she turned on her knees. "Did you cause that..." she paused, finding herself staring at a boot almost as big as her head. She gulped and pulled her gaze up and up and up, past muscular legs, an immense torso, way up to a head where blond hair was blowing gently. She couldn't ignore the pulsing golden aura around him, and knew what that meant. "Explosion?" she finished, her voice barely a whisper. "Mhmm.. Judging by your power level, you must be one Vegeta's minions. Hmph, I guess an insect can only assemble more insects," Sauron Broly snarled. "Minion?" Mistress Paine asked in spite of herself, insulted. She got to her feet, and tried, unsuccessfully, not to glare up at him. "I am not his.. ..minion," she pointed out. "Feh, what a pathetic waste of blood!" Sauron Broly growled, and swung his monstrous arm at her, only to have Ryoushi Yuna kick him hard against the temple, catching him completely off guard and sending him reeling into a tree. Ryoushi Yuna landed gracefully beside Mistress Paine, and held Mistress Paine's sword and clothes out to her. "I was nearby, figured you needed this," Ryoushi Yuna said with a smile. “Thanks Yuna,” Mistress Paine said, taking the items from her. With a nod of her head, she motioned to Sauron Broly. "He called me a minion," Mistress Paine grunted, and keeping an eye on Sauron Broly, Mistress Paine changed into her favorite outfit: black leather shorts and leggings, black leather top, all held together with various straps of red and black leather. She slipped one boot on easily, but struggled with the other, hopping around on her already booted foot as she tried to get her boot on. Mistress Paine caught her sword with the edge of her boot, and crashed. Her other boot slipped on easily, and she grimaced. "Very funny," Mistress Paine grumbled, getting to her feet while fighting the urge to rub her backside, picking up her sword. Sauron Broly stood up, and looked at Ryoushi Yuna. "Vegeta, and his minions, all of you are like insects. Crush one and another crawls out from the wall." Sauron Broly grunted. Ryoushi Yuna grimaced. “What are you talking about..?" Ryoushi Yuna asked quietly, and Sauron Broly laughed. "Oh, nothing.. Nothing at all.." Sauron Broly said with a grin. Ryoushi Yuna looked at Mistress Paine. "We've got to get him away from here, there's too many innocent people. I'll go get Gullwing Trunks, so lure him out of here to Bikanel Desert!" Ryoushi Yuna said, and Mistress Paine nodded, then did a double take. Her mouth opened and closed a couple times. "Lure him? Are you insane?" Mistress Paine yelped. "I'm depending on you!" Ryoushi Yuna cried, and a blue aura erupted around her, before she disappeared into the sky. Mistress Paine watched her go, grumbling, "Lure him, she says." Mistress Paine turned back to Sauron Broly. She forced a smile. "Hey Big Boy!" she yelled, "Want to play?" A red aura flared to life around her, and she darted up into the sky. Sauron Broly frowned. "Hmm.. I doubt you can even put up a good fight," his hand glowed green, "I'll end this now." Mistress Paine fired a blast of ki from one hand, even as she sheathed her sword. More of an annoyance than anything, she knew, but Ryoushi Yuna did say to lure him. Sauron Broly growled as the blast hit him, and he fired a massive ball of ki at her, leaping into the sky after her as his green aura burst to life around him. Mistress Paine barely dodged the massive ball of ki, biting back a yelp as she rocketed across the sky. Turning so she was flying backwards, a trick she'd practiced endlessly with Gullwing Trunks, she managed another blast of ki, which whipped over then past his cheek. "Catch me if you can!" Mistrss Paine turned around, doubling her speed. Sauron Broly's frown turned upside down, and he grinned, "This is new, a game of cat and mouse!!" Sauron Broly's voice boomed through the sky as he laughed, his aura forming into a shield as he sped up, overwhelming Mistress Paine in seconds. Mistress Paine came up short of Bikanel Desert, unable to bite back a yelp when he caught up so quickly. "You move fast for a big guy," she said, trying to keep her voice as cocky as before. "But can you do this?" She disappeared, then appearing twenty feet away, she waved at him. "Yoo hoo! This way, Big Guy!" Before she was finished, she heard Sauron Broly's laugh from behind her. "Got any more tricks, little insect?" Sauron Broly teased, and Mistress Paine yelped, but managed to bite it off before it became the shriek she wanted to let loose. She smiled weakly. "A few, but I have a feeling you know them already. Besides, we're there." Abruptly, Mistress Paine disappeared once more, appearing on the ground far below. Sauron Broly grinned, and plummeted, closing in on her almost immediately, but just before he could crush her a massive ball of ki hit his shield, the ki ball exploding and sending Sauron Broly just enough off course that he disappeared in an explosion of sand beside her. "IT'S ABOUT TIME!!!" Mistress Paine screamed, glaring at Gullwing Trunks and Ryoushi Yuna as they landed. "I've never encountered anyone as powerful as him," using her thumb, she pointed at Sauron Broly. Gulwing Trunks was in his Super Saiya-jin four transformation, with crimson fur covering his body, his white spiked hair grown halfway down his back and over his shoulders. His eyes were very obviously red, and his cheeks wet from tears. Ryoushi Yuna’s eyes were the same, and their auras crackled with sparks as they touched one another. The arriving duo glared at Sauron Broly, without saying a word. "What is it? What's wrong?" Mistress Paine demanded, grabbing Ryoushi Yuna’s arm. Ryoushi Yuna turned to her, her lip trembling, and eyes filling with tears as she managed to murmur "Vegeta..." "Father.. He's dead.." Gullwing Trunks growled, his voice filled with hatred and anger, "That monster killed Gullwing Vegeta!!" "So, the truth leaks out," Sauron Broly said with a grin, standing back, before leaping away from the trio and laughing. Mistress Paine’s hand fell from Ryoushi Yuna, and she staggered a step. "Nooo..." Mistress Paine shook her head slowly, then steeled herself. As much as she quarreled with Gullwing Vegeta, she did like the little guy. She added her glare to theirs, her red aura flaring brilliantly as she glared malevolently at Sauron Broly. "For father.. We have to take him out, and we can do it together!!" Gullwing Trunks cried, and he dashed forward towards Sauron Broly. Gullwing Trunks punched at Sauron Broly's head, and the monster stepped back, easily avoiding the blow. Gullwing Trunks then kicked at his temple, and Sauron Broly tilted his head behind the blow, then swatted Gullwing Trunks into Mistress Paine and Ryoushi Yuna, who staggered on their feet, but managed to catch Gullwing Trunks. “We can do it together!" Mistress Paine cried, clenching her wrists firmly before her. “FINAL BLAST!!” Mistress Paine roared, the beam of ki emptying from her wrists, before it raced across the ground to Sauron Broly, who smacked it away with a grin. "Vegeta tried that very same move on me, and again I show the futility of that attack,” Sauron Broly said cockily. Mistress Paine glared at him then yelled at Gullwing Trunks and Ryoushi Yuna. “Come ON! If all three of us try..." Mistress Paine pleaded, and Ryoushi Yuna nodded. “Yeah..” Ryoushi Yuna whispered. The three of them spread their arms, clenched their wrists, screaming "FINAL BLAST!!" as the powerful beam of ki erupted from their wrists. The three beams twirled around one another, forming one monstrous beam as they rocketed toward Sauron Broly, who grinned, holding his hands out and catching the blast, before firing a pulse of ki into it, causing it to explode and send the Gullwings into the sand behind them. Mistress Paine lay in the sand a moment, reeling. “We are so screwed." Mistress Paine said flatly, and just then she saw Dbzbabe Rikku looking down with her with a grin, waving. "Hiya!” Dbzbabe Rikku shirped. Mistress Paine sighed. "I repeat, we are so screwed." Mistress Paine said dryly. Ryoushi Yuna slowly stood up, and looked at Dbzbabe Rikku. “Thank you for coming..” Ryoushi Yuna whispered. “No pr-” Dbzbabe Rikku began, before they disappeared in an explosion of sand as Gullwing Trunks raced for Sauron Broly, drawing his sword and flashing at Sauron Broly over and over, while Sauron Broly easily dodged side to side, avoiding the blows, before gripping the sword firmly in his hands, and punching Gullwing Trunks hard on the jaw, before smacking his face with the back of his hand to send him twirling and crashing into the sand. "Join up all you want, you can't beat me!" Sauron Broly gloated with a laugh. “Bullcrap!!" Mistress Paine growled, getting to her feet, and racing toward him, drawing her sword as she went. She slashed at Sauron Broly, who back stepped out of the way. “Instant transmission!” Mistress Paine roared, blinking out of sight before appearing behind Sauron Broly to slash at his back, whirling around when he appeared behind her instead. “Bastard!" she cried. Unexpectedly, her sword glowed with the same red aura that surrounded her, and bolts of ki flashed from the eye sockets of the skull as she slashed at him with her sword. Sauron Broly smacked her sword to the side, his hand filling with ki before he slammed it into her, the ki exploding on contact and sending her crashing into Gullwing Trunks. Mistress Paine scrambled off of Gullwing Trunks with effort. "I said it before..." she glared at Sauron Broly, then sighed, "We are so screwed." Ryoushi Yuna and Dbzbabe Rikku dashed after him together, kicking at him in unison. He jumped over them, letting them slide harmlessly beneath him, before twirling and gripping both of them by their feet in one massive hand, before he swung them at Mistress Paine and Gullwing Trunks, following the throw with a barrage of ki blasts. Mistress Paine and Gullwing Trunks leapt over Ryoushi Yuna and Dbzbabe Rikku as they crashed, before holding their swords before them to absorb the balls of ki. Even still, they rocked back on their feet, sliding back from the force of each explosion. “Gullwing Trunks, what do we do?” Mistress Paine asked. Gullwing Trunks grimaced, and glared at her as Ryoushi Yuna and Dbzbabe Rikku slowly stood. “We have to attack him at once, from all sides!!” Gullwing Trunks screamed over the sound of the explosions. Mistress Paine nodded, and all four of them shared a long look, before turning to Sauron Broly, who stopped firing the blasts of ki and crossed his arms over his chest. “Have the insects decided to crawl back into their hole, or have they attempted to find their stingers? Ha!” Sauron Broly teased, smirking. Gullwing Trunks instant transmissioned behind Sauron Broly, Dbzbabe Rikku to his right and Ryoushi Yuna to his left, leaving Mistress Paine before him. The four of them kicked at him simultaneously, before pummeling at him with a barrage of kicks and punches, all of which Sauron Broly dodged mindlessly. Sauron Broly’s laugh filled the air as he thrust his arms out, gripping Ryoushi Yuna and Dbzbabe Rikku firmly by the skull, before twirling with them in his grasp, using them as clubs to bash Gullwing Trunks and Mistress Paine before letting them go, unleashing powerful beams of ki that consumed the Gullwings, and sent them reeling from the pending explosion into the earth below. Sauron Broly laughed, surrounding himself with a shield as he dropped to the ground, and raced for Mistress Paine and Dbzbabe Rikku, the ground beneath him disintegrating from his speed. Mistress Paine struggled to her feet, groaning softly. "This is hopeless., He's too powerful,” Mistress Paine grunted. Dbzbabe Rikku pushed herself to her feet. “I want my Veggie-baby!!” She whined. In spite of herself, Mistress Paine rolled her eyes. ‘Veggie baby, indeed. Still, his shortness would prove help right about now,” Mistress Paine conceded softly, her voice tinged with sadness. Sauron Broly plowed into them, carrying them on his shield as he flew forward, while every second they were on the shield they were burned from the intense ki. Dbzbabe Rikku cried out in pain as they were dragged. Mistress Paine, biting her lip to keep from crying out, thrust her arms downward and fired a ball of ki, blasting her off of the shield, only to drop down to the ground, landing hard. Sauron Broly ignored her as he spun around, trapping Dbzbabe Rikku between the shield and the ground as she slid down it, and he raced for an oblivious Gullwing Trunks and Ryoushi Yuna. Mistress Paine shakily got to her feet, then took off after them. With one mighty swing of her sword, a blast of ki behind it, and Sauron Broly came to halt, sending Dbzbabe Rikku crashing into the ground, burying the front of her in the sand. "Pick on someone your own size!" Mistress Paine yelled at him. She cocked her head to one side. "Then again, no one IS your size, you overgrown monkey" Sauron Broly looked over his shoulder at her, his face full of disgust. "Getting a little big for our britches, are we? Better go on a diet, goth" Sauron Broly grunted. "Big or not, you'll never get in them, no matter how... Big... You are, psycho monkey boy" she said, shaking her butt just a little. Sauron Broly growled, clenching his fist as it glowed with ki, and suddenly Ryoushi Yuna kicked him in the face, then kicked off of his chest and fired a beam of ki into his eyes. Sauron Broly swatted at her blindly, and Ryoushi Yuna dove behind him. He looked behind him, and he thrusted his arm forward for her skull with astonishing speed. Ryoushi Yuna stared at him, frozen in fear. "NO!!" Gullwing Trunks cried, tackling Ryoushi Yuna out of the way, and Sauron Broly gripped his skull firmly instead of hers. He kneed Gullwing Trunks hard in the gut, then punched his skull over and over before tossing him before his feet, spinning and firing a ball of ki which exploded as it hit Gullwing Trunks. Sauron Broly then surrounded himself with his shield, and rocketed toward Gullwing Trunks, trapping him against the edge of the shield as he flew high into the sky, then torpedoed downward into the earth, crushing Gullwing Trunks between the planet and his shield. Out of the smoke Sauron Broly leaped backwards, both of his hands held forward as a ball of ki formed in his hands, which grew severalfold until it was as large as Sauron Broly, before the legend fired it into Gullwing Trunks, where the prince disappeared in a fiery explosion of flame and ki. "TRUNKS!!!" Ryoushi Yuna cried out, holding her hand toward the Saiya-jins as her eyes filled with tears. "TRUNKS!!" Mistress Paine yelled, staring down at the carnage, stunned. As the smoke cleared, Gullwing Trunks lay in his normal form, unmoving in the center of a crater. Sauron Broly stood tall, and laughed maniacally. Mistress Paine landed next to Ryoushi Yuna, gripping her arm gently but firmly. "It's up to us now," she said, "There's nothing we can do for Trunks at the moment." “Trunks..” Was all Ryoushi Yuna could muster as she fell to her knees, tears trailing down her cheeks as she gagged, crying. Mistress Paine knelt next to Ryoushi Yuna, one hand lightly stroking her back soothingly, her gaze straying to Sauron Broly. "Yuna, I... I can't do it alone,” Mistress Paine whispered. Sauron Broly laughed, and turned to Ryoushi Yuna with a grin. "Aw, did I just break your sex toy?" Sauron Broly crowed. Ryoushi Yuna looked down, her hair covering her eyes as she clenched her fists, and pure ki slowly oozed around her. "He.. Wasn't my sex toy... I LOVED HIM!!!" Ryoushi Yuna roared, her blue aura exploding around her, disintegrating the earth around her as she splayed out her limbs. Mistress Paine reeled back from the explosion, sprawling. Ryoushi Yuna glared at Sauron Broly, then narrowed her eyes, and cried "You'll pay for what you've done!!" “If I had even a penny every time some one has said that to me,” Sauron Broly snicked, tilting his head. “Mistress Paine come on, I can't do this alone either!!" Ryoushi Yuna cried. Mistress Paine quickly got to her feet, her own aura spiking red around her as she cried "I'm with you!" The remaining Gullwings dashed at Sauron Broly together, upper cutting at Sauron Broly's midsection, but the behemoth stepped back out of the way. They kneed at his skull, following with a siege of punches and kicks, all of which failed to meet their mark as Sauron Broly kept leaping backwards. Suddenly, he spread out his arms and dove forward, his massive biceps colliding into the duo, sending them flipping head over heels into the ground. Sauron Broly spun around, burying his fists in the ground to slow him down then leaped at the two, his hands glowing bright with ki as he thrust his arms forward, firing a powerful beam of ki which consumed the two Gullwings, rocketing them into the ground beside Gullwing Trunks. Mistress Paine and Ryoushi Yuna slowly pushed themselves up, only to be buried under a rain of ki blasts, which quickly overwhelmed them into unconsciousness. Sauron Broly laughed as he stopped, grinning ear to ear. "This was far too easy, and too much fun. Too bad it must come to an end.. Now!!" He held his hand up, opening his hand and forming a large, ball of ki equaling him in size, "To the end of Spira!!" Sauron Broly swung his arm forward, and the ball of ki raced for the planet. Then suddenly, a tiny turquoise ball of ki slammed into it, breaking the ball into several pieces which exploded in the sky. Sauron Broly glared at the direction of the blast. "Who dares get in my way?!" Sauron Broly demanded. All he saw was a blue of feathers, then a pair of intertwined wings sitting upon a hill. Then, out of the feathers Guardian Dante appeared. Standing tall with his wings spread wide behind him as he watched Sauron Broly. "Do you always pick on the weakest first?!" Guardian Dante spat, his voice cold. Sauron Broly grinned. "I do what needs to be done. What do you expect, from a true freak?!" Sauron Broly laughed insanely, and Guardian Dante snorted, instant transmissioning to Dbzbabe Rikku‘s side, picking her up before instant transmissioning beside the other Gullwings. He dropped her beside them, then held his hands before the team. "Curaga.." Guardian Dante mumbled, the Gullwings glowing green for a moment, before the glow faded, their wounds disappearing as their eyes opened and they awoke. Mistress Paine blinked, then sat up. She looked up at Sauron Broly, and groaned. "Not a nightmare, then." She saw Guardian Dante standing there, and could have wept. "Dante!" "No need to fear, your hero has arrived! Here I've come to save the day!" Guardian Dante laughed, grinning, before he turned to Sauron Broly, his grin returning to a frown. Dbzbabe Rikku wiped her eyes, then grinned as she spotted Guardian Dante. "Wahoo!! Alright! Time to see the angel kick some booty!" Mistress Paine fought the urge to slap Dbzbabe Rikku. "He can't do it alone, Barbie." Mistress Paine grunted, scrambling to her feet. “The hell I can’t,” Guardian Dante snickered. Ryoushi Yuna slowly opened her eyes, then sat up, crying "TRUNKS!!" She looked around frantically, then spotted him as he began to stand. She leapt up and hugged him tightly, crying. "Oh I thought you were dead.. Trunks.." She mumbled into his chest, and he hugged her back. "I'm ok..” He whispered. Mistress Paine ignored them. "Dial down the testosterone, Guardian Dante,“ Mistress Paine sighed, “To defeat psycho monkey boy over there, we're going to have to all work together." Guardian Dante shook his head. "I want you to stay out of this, you are nothing but a liability to me in this. Leave it to me." Mistress Paine gripped his arm. "He took out Vegeta. He took us ALL out. If we do this together, we stand a chance. So shove your pride, and let's all do this... Together. As Gullwings." Mistress Paine pleaded. “He only beat Gullwing Vegeta because he was delirious,” Guardian Dante snorted, “Gullwing Vegeta was so filled with emotion, anger and fear that it clouded his mind, and forced him to fight sloppily. He had more than enough power to defeat Sauron Broly, and I'll prove that right here, right now!” “He’s too powerful!” Mistress Paine cried, and Guardian Dante glared at her. "I've defeated warriors that had a bigger power deficit over me than Sauron Broly! Just trust me!!" Guardian Dante demanded. “I do trust you! But... Just... Be careful..” Mistress Paine sighed. Guardian Dante turned back to Sauron Broly. "Alright Sauron Broly, I hope you're ready for the hardest match of your life!" Guardian Dante spat. Sauron Broly yawned. "Finally done chatting, insect? Ready for me to pluck your wings?" Sauron Broly asked with a grin. Guardian Dante flexed his muscles, and was engulfed in a bright, silver aura. With a flap of his wings, he was behind Sauron Broly, slamming his shin into the monster’s temple, before launching a series of punches against his chest, knees at his chin, then elbows his face. The blows met their mark, thundering down in rapid succession across his body. "Concussion Blast!!" Guardian Dante roared, thrusting his arms forward and unleashing a blast of pure energy into Sauron Broly, the legend disappearing in a cloud of smoke. Guardian Dante dashed into the cloud, and in an explosion of light the cloud dissipated, and Sauron Broly staggered back. Guardian Dante raised both hands above his head, energy flaring in between them in an ever-growing ball of silver white ki, growing larger by the millisecond as he let it charge up to an extremely large amount of mass. The ball flashed brighter, more insistent, anxious to rip into its target. In the air above them, clouds circled, darkening the skies while the ground cracked, shifting as pure energy was moving through the planet itself. Guardian Dante's smirk grew wider as he glared at Sauron Broly. “You made a mistake by coming to Spira-sei, Sauron Broly! Now, PREPARE TO LOSE! SUPERNOVA!” Guardian Dante roared, and threw down the gigantic ball of energy, consuming Sauron Broly in its wake as it plummeted towards the ground Sauron Broly screamed as he disappeared in an explosion of light that destroyed the entire area, sending the Gullwings flying into the sky on the shock waves. The Gullwings caught themselves, skidding to a stop to float in midair. “Good Kami, his power level, it’s huge!!” Gullwing Trunks cried, and Ryoushi Yuna nodded in agreement. "ARE YOU INSANE, DANTE??? You could have killed US with that one!!!" Mistress Paine roared angrily. Guardian Dante landed with his feet firmly in the ground, spreading his arms to his sides, his palms facing outwards. He smirked, glaring at the cloud of smoke where Sauron Broly lay. “The Final Blast..” Guardian Dante whispered, almost inaudibly to himself. His eyes flickered and began to glow brilliantly, body shining as his aura began to flicker, flames licking silently in the air as his body began to vibrate, the ground around and under him crackling, energy flowing into the earth and cracking it as his muscles began to tense. A small cry of power began to build inside his throat, and yet he held it in, his jaw lax as his breath began to intake sharply, energy forming in front of his palms as he brought them together, his arms shimmering in silver as his energy began to flow out of his body into the material realm, coating his limbs and body. Lightning crackled off his form, stretching across the arena, licking at the ground with fierce intensity as it began to rip the ground apart around him, his eyes shining with brilliant white light, the cry in his throat beginning to release itself slowly. “Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....." he began to shout, his fingers tightening around each other in a small cup, the silver light growing in-between his palms, materializing itself as energy began to suck inwards, causing a large updraft to form around him, sucking the air towards himself, making his wings flap in the wind. His cry became louder; his body shone brighter; slowly, the energy began to build up, like an avalanche that continued to build on itself, his muscles tensing tighter as the ball of light in his hands expanded in a rush, flashing outwards to overtake the area in silver light. Fading, the image of Guardian Dante, silver aura engulfing him stood, his mouth curved up into a grim smile, the ball of energy collapsing on itself, concentrating, and expanding once more. “The preparations are complete..” Guardian Dante said with a grin. The other Gullwings just stared, their eyes wide in disbelief. "His power.." Gullwing Trunks trembled, "It's just.. Incredible!!" "Gullwings!! Take cover!! He's going for broke with this one!!" Mistress Paine cried out, and taking her own advice, she gave each of them a shove, and headed for, what she hoped, would be out of striking range. From Guardian Dante’s hands erupted the beam of ki, which raced for Sauron Broly, vaporizing the sand around it as it rocketed toward its' target. Sauron Broly stood up, and glared at the beam, before it completely consumed him, and raced off into space. The sound of Sauron Broly's maniacal laughter rang out as the last of the clouds raised from the sand and dust fell away. Sauron stood, his skin slightly singed and his hair a mess, smirking at Guardian Dante. Mistress Paine grabbed Gullwing Trunks's arm, gripping it tight. "Did you see that?? He's completely unharmed!!" Mistress Paine cried out. “N.. Not completely..” Gullwing Trunks observed, as blood began to drip from Sauron Broly’s mouth. "Well, well, well, insect. That did tingle a bit. Seems you have a bit of a sting as well as Gullwing Vegeta did,” Sauron Broly grinned, his teeth red with blood before he ran his tounge over his mouth and his teeth, wiping them clean of the blood. Gullwing Trunks just stared, his eye twitching. "But.. But how.. Dante hit him with.. With the best.. He had.." Gullwing Trunks mumbled, shaking with fear. Guardian Dante was panting, and staring at Sauron Broly, his eyes wide with surprise. "Even if we all work together...I don't know." Mistress Paine whispered. "Nothing more than a few scratches? Well, I guess it's time I took it to the next level,” Guardian Dante said matter-of-factly, grinning. Gullwing Trunks’s face was filled with a look of confusion. “Next.. Level?” Gullwing Trunks asked. "Seems I've heard something like that before. And we know how that turned out, don't we?" Sauron Broly laughed again. Ryoushi Yuna looked at Gullwing Trunks, and began to explain, "He did mention.. Archon Turbo in his resume.. I saw something like what he described in the tournament, but I guess that’s nothing like what he's capable of.." “I just hope it will be enough..” Gullwing Trunks gulped. “Don't believe me? Well, then watch this, Mr. Legend..” Guardian Dante laughed. "I do too," Mistress Paine ran a shaky hand over her face. "I really do." |
