(Gohan-POV)
He and his dad arrived upon the scene, or the desolate area where Tien, Raditz, Yamcha and Qrow arrived to assist in whatever Eighteen and Seventeen were doing, those two being unable to be sensed didn't help though, where Seventeen was… it was all wrong, they way he looked and the way he stood, while Eighteen was imprinted into a crater, her brother chuckling from every punch he launched upon her. Tien was then upon Seventeen… this guy who reminded Gohan of Seventeen, though with longer hair and a purely brutal way he'd look at his own sister… Gohan immediately knew that this scene was all wrong. Yamcha was also within a crater, holding his right arm while Qrow at the moment was getting Raditz up onto his feet when Gohan and his father landed.
"Damn, what is this now-" Gohan said aloud, though his gaze which was sweeping across this mountainous tundra area, then pinpointing two person of interest, watching the fight from up high, side by side. Gohan noticed one immediately to be someone they knew, someone who also should be dead. Dr. Gero, the guy who created Cell, who was also alive, along with Sixteen, Seventeen and Eighteen. The other, he couldn't know who it was and it looked like his dad had no idea either.
"-You see them dad, those two up on the cliff."
"Yeah… I see them, Gero and whoever that guy is." his dad went to help Yamcha up, who was the most brutalized of the guys here, though he was still alive. Yamcha blinked, one eye open as he pointed towards the cliff. Struggling, he rasped out, coughing up blood.
"T-That guy is, I remember him… The guy, the blue o-one is, the Tuffle s-scientist guy who made Baby. H-Hope that parasite isn't-" he coughed once more, Gohan's dad speaking up.
"Hmm, right then Gohan. Seventeen isn't acting like himself, you get in there and try and diffuse the situation. Seventeen isn't himself… Stop him and I'll take Yamcha to the lookout for a quick second. I'll then go after those two up there. I recognize Dr. Gero there and whatever happened to Seventeen is most likely his fault. Alright Yamcha, let's go." Goku placed a finger upon his forehead, a arm holding Yamcha up and the two of them vanished, Gohan getting to his feet and blasting forwards, flickering multiple times in quick bursts, then managing to catch Seventeen's right fist then nearly came downwards upon Eighteen when Gohan, within his 'Super Saiyan Four' transformation, he felt a strain in holding… Seventeen's arm, the guy then looked at him with a smirk-
-Gohan took the kick the suddenly struck him in the stomach, wheezing and caught himself before he could continue to be forced through the rock and dirt of the crater that formed in an instant, Seventeen didn't move from his spot but he held his position, his right leg straight in the sky while his posture supported himself, Seventeen then turned to Eighteen who managed to get to her feet and give herself some room, watching Gohan and Seventeen. Gohan then went on the offensive, flickering towards 'this' Seventeen, now engaging with him, as Seventeen's Ki flickered into a red blaze that meant he was using 'Kaio-Ken', The two of them were then joined by Tien and Raditz, now found themselves in a three versus one all out brawl.
"You'll be mindful to stand aside; I've not finished telling Eighteen over there what happens to her should she insist to resist our master… Now you three, do not interfere!" his arms came stretched out in a second, his Ki then encircled him in a sphere of energy that blasted Gohan, Tien and Raditz backwards Seventeen then cackling while powering up.
"Raditz, what the heck is going on now uncle, I see Dr. Gero and Yamcha mentioned the other guy is a Tuffle, possibly also a scientist… But why is Seventeen attacking us?" Raditz growled, purple Ki fired from his hands, small spheres, his 'Super Saiyan Four' form in use also, Tien empowered due to his own 'Kaio-Ken'. Eighteen and Qrow blasted off towards Dr. Gero and the other guy, while Gohan also sensed his fathers sudden reappearance, then Qrow, Eighteen and Goku went after the two at the back. Seventeen turned his gaze slightly, to view Dr. Gero and the other being attacked as well, but he seemed unconcerned with them while he engaged with Gohan, Raditz and Tien.
Also, Gohan witnessed the Ki blasts that Raditz launched appeared to have been absorbed by this Seventeen, who only cackled, the spheres also seemed to make Seventeen's body bulk up slightly from each Ki sphere that entered into him.
"Why a-are you d-doing this Seventeen, what is wrong with y-you man?" Gohan asked through their melee engagement, Seventeen turned to sneer at him.
"No reason, besides I was dealing with personal business, while also showing my sister that I am the strongest among us and therefore, she should just… fold into line and do what I say. That is, until you all arrived and attacked me, getting in my way-"
"-You were attacking your own sister man, is it because of something to due to Dr. Gero-"
"-They? They allowed my rise to come to this point. They are nothing to me. I am now back, all powerful and have a new goal… to prove myself I am the strongest, those two? Dr. Gero and Dr. Myuu? Man, they are about to die I suspect… and their revenge plans against the Saiyan Goku and the Saiyan's Kron and a few others… they will face me soon enough as I prove my superiority. But first lads, you three first. Then I'll see how Goku fairs against a superior fighter. Then they foolish sister, I'll deal with her last for defying me."
Whatever was wrong with Seventeen now, it most likely was due to those two, though looking over there Eighteen already took out Dr. Gero with a blast, then went after and brutalized the other, now standing over him with Goku looked to be holding a hand on her shoulder. Gohan didn't see much else, the fight against Seventeen here and now was to be his focus, for he was much stronger than normal.
(Vegeta-POV)
"I've been revived before you fools, I'll find another way when I get back out of that wretched hell-" Cell took more blows, from multiple of them, he used his all and even attacked with his tail in long piercing blows, though it was for nought. The guy was getting stronger certainly, for Vegeta could tell that he was shrugging off more attacks and this… contest continued to struggle on but with himself and the others in a combined attack that left him no time to recover to his full strength, he was also weakening at the same time. Namekian cells or no, he was barely worth the combined effort, but giving this guy even an ounce of breathing room could spell doom for their efforts, for he could very well try and escape, Vegeta noticed the increasingly rising fear that swelled forth along with the burning rage of Cells gaze. Mira, Dabura and the alien Pikkon would attack, then Piccolo, himself and Sixteen would strike with nimble aim to not pose a threat to one another, while the last, who was usually that idiotic fool that Kron picked up on some remote world, Cumber coming in for his brutal frontal assault. The shadow dragon Nouva, as he was called and Vegeta learned through this bout, also aided them as viciously as he could, though seemingly a little reluctant to do so, most likely because of how many of them were fighting the same waste of space.
"-Heh! Trying to put in the towel you coward, what a let down you've turned out to be. Though I suppose that with seven against one, your naturally on the downward slope. I could ask my comrades here to see if instead of all of us, one of us could-"
"-Shut it Vegeta." Piccolo said, narrowed gaze though Vegeta only laughed, a sneer towards Cell as he continued speaking.
"-You heard him Cell, looks like the plans not going to happen. Now stand still and have some dignity while we kill you, we've got other, more important matters to arrange than to entertain ourselves on using you as a punching bag." Cells eyeballs were bloodshot, the disgusting filth was frothing at the mouth, a combination of spit and blood from his fatigue and anger getting the best of him, Dabura then shouted to them all, Cumber kicking Cell into the air suddenly and was about to blast upwards after him.
"Quickly you fools, overpower your most powerful attack and lets get this boring fight over and done with. I've a mind to test myself against a more worthy opponent and since that opponent I know is elsewhere, I'll just have to track him down-"
"-'Final Flash' yaaaaaaaaaahhhaaaaaaaaa!" Vegeta interrupted the monologuing Dabura, shouting out as he unleashed one of his signature techniques against Cell, who took the beam in both hands, though Vegeta wasn't alone in launching attacks.
"-'Super Beam Cannon' Roooooaaahhh!" Piccolo roared out, quickly followed by Sixteen at the same time.
"'Hell's Flash'" the android said simply, neither winded nor intensely like the others, Dabura then roared out, half annoyed at Vegeta.
"'Evil Impulse'!" Cumber, and the alien also launched their own blasts, Cumber doing so while his 'Evil Aura' spawned those shadow hands of his, as those two plus his actual hands spawned four black and red colored spheres, then fired together all into his real hands, the energy wave targeted at Cell found its mark easily, being such a large attack. Pikkon, that guys attack was used even before Vegeta's own attack, some kind of tornado made Cell unable to move, making the rest of their techniques able to strike all at once.
"...'Nova Death Ray'." the shadow dragon yelled out, last to attack but by no means was he holding back, that orange colored technique was as impressive as Cumber's attack in radius, a large wave overlapping their own techniques. The combined mixture of Ki energy melded into one super sized beam of a kind of rainbow beam, that then turned to brown, the beam easily overwhelming Cell while the android could be heard resisting with all his might, a sphere of green colored Ki constantly been suppressed around him. That defensive technique of Cells was then swallowed whole as Cell was swallowed, their combined attack finally touching him and then-
-The resulting explosion pushed even them seven backwards from the powerful shock waves that continued to pulse out in all directions, rippling the very landscape around them as even dirt and rock mounds the size of small houses rose into the air, being pushed outwards from the center of the explosion, Vegeta's half gaze upon the flared result of some of their most powerful attacks brightly shone across the world in a extended duration, then darkening the world where at least, they were situated in this fighting before after some seconds, the explosion was beginning to settle into place.
"That should be it, will watch for this bastard to get a rise out of us this time! He and the shadow dragon remains should, this time around, disintegrated entirely from that combination. What a fool he was, should have run when he had the chance… Now then-"
"-Now we see what state those others are in, their energies are in various states of distress, including Goku's. Shadow dragon, have you decided on your next course of action. Truly now, fighting at our side. By that admission, you have decided then." Piccolo asked, Dabura then adding before Nouva could even mumble a murmur.
"Another stray… welcome to the fold shadow dragon, though watch your step. I'd wage a bout against you one day in the near future." Dabura smirked, the eight of them idly watching the explosion now dispersing into smoke and dust now, their gazes peering carefully, Vegeta becoming impatient while they continued to scan for any piece of Cell to have survived, for even one small piece would be enough for him to regenerate, or so Vegeta believes. So far, nothing at this moment.
"This group is one big army of strays Piccolo, just look at this lot. All of them stray dogs, what a group we are. Now less wasting time, we've got one last brawl to see to. Then I go after Kron." Vegeta growled out, pointing out this in a moment of boredom, still no sign of Cell.
(Tien-POV)
Laid out once more, Tien took in a deep breath, watching this Seventeen fight the others, except for Yamcha, who was knocked out cold. Krillin was dead from those shadow dragons… yet they let one life, Tien would give that one a pass, Gohan nearby to him had mentioned that he bet that Oceanus Shenron until he forced her to surrender, then took the dragon ball and knocked her out under the ocean… where she should still be, Gohan told him just before while helping Tien stand. The two of them watched Seventeen and Goku fight, Eighteen and Tien had dealt with those other two guys, those scientist bastards were destroyed but whatever they done to Seventeen, there was that to deal with.
Raditz transformed into a golden Oozeru, using a power ball he created, then tried to transform further within the great ape form when Seventeen dealt a powerful blow to his noggin, knocking him down and then blasting the power ball above.
Goku to his credit, was doing much better than the rest of them, even his own son Gohan, who let them two fight it out, Eighteen did so after Goku told her to let him have a go at beating him by himself. This Seventeen was very much different that the one they knew for years, very much malicious and arrogant, much more arrogant than then normal and his new abilities were nothing to scoff at, Tien felt the fighting over where they were previously, nearby the half desolate West City that was going to be needing repairs… not to mention about all those innocents that they would wish back, once everything here was put to rights.
"Gohan, with all seven of earth's dragon balls brought together once more, we're going to have to start wishing. We should have a couple months until they can be used once more, am I right. Well, I remember we need to wish back Moori, the other wishes? Man I cannot recall those ones, it's been a busy couple days." Gohan nodded, both their gazes and Raditz, who was finally regressing to his normal size, transforming out of the great ape form, plus Yamcha who was conscious but pretty shook up.
Pyrrha and Zangya returned with Senzu beans, a whole capsule full, Korin and Kron had a whole storage facility under Bulma's name and a large greenhouse somewhere which Korin visited regularly, growing there as well as his place in his tower, Kron and Korin were very much appreciated by them now, having countless stored up though Zangya and Pyrrha only grabbed two capsules, distributing a Senzu bean bag to each of them, Raditz eating two of his own, while he and the others all ate one, except for Yamcha who only waked up before. With Zangya, Pyrrha, Gohan, Qrow, Raditz and Yamcha watching Goku fight Seventeen, Eighteen making sure all of those other two guys they both took out before were truly destroyed, they were watched this fight from the sidelines.
"We could ask Dende to make the wishes now, he should know all four of them so, since we've got them now, at least Moori should be brought back and also with his return, the Namekian dragon balls. Whatever has happened Seventeen… Dad will be able to handle it. Dende…" Gohan said aloud, focusing and Tien seen his face squint, he must be trying to communicate with Dende upon the lookout. Might as well get things moving, what with that guy Beerus and his uh, his regent or whatever was here on earth, with him… whatever they had planned for some of them, plus there was Kron, out there and being controlled by that other Towa woman.
"Shadows dragons… bar the two still alive, Broly… Cell, those two were brought back by that woman possibly. Frieza, and his family might be also alive as well… Whoever else is going to turn up here and start wrecking our world? I'm going to get done some serious training after all this is over and done with. The others can go ahead and find Kron and fix this mess, I'll be busy doing more productive things." Raditz said annoyed,
"Goku's energy blasts are getting absorbed out there, and Seventeen is bulking up in size plus power and your talking about what you will do, after this mess is done with. Just shut up Raditz, no one here likes listening to your complaining." Tien said, annoyed, all three of his squinted suddenly, like the others as large flashes and shock waves came up between Goku and Seventeen, their energy beams they launched at one another blinding the entire area while the ground they stood on shook from the pressure their energy strained against.
"Why are we standing around here? We should be engaging Seventeen, knock some sense into him and overwhelm him together, except for you Yamcha, you wont hold up well I think. Raditz can watch over you-" more energy waves pulse out, shock waved towards their positions, forcing them all to squint in place, their eyes half closed while trying to witness this beam clash.
"What is this? Raditz, why aren't you out there fighting. You little runt." Tien heard Nappa, joke out, he landed with Goku and Raditz father, plus Vegeta's father… Vegeta, those two only watched the clash of energy attacks, squinting too along with them while Nappa, his back to the clash, smirked down at Raditz, holding up a hand and pulling Raditz to his feet. Raditz begrudingly stood, as Vegeta, Dabura, Mira, Sixteen, Piccolo, Cumber, that alien… Pikkon? And one of the shadow dragons who changed sides, flying over head, right for Seventeen, Eighteen and Goku.
"Ah, the rest of us is here then. And here are the others." Tien heard Gohan say, looking back, his eyes now open fuller for he was no longer glancing towards the fight, Tien also now seeing as Raven, Majin Buu… who was still eating and Chiaotzu… who looked to be using his telekinesis to carry along a couple of fridges along with him, for Majin Buu's body occasionally shot out tendrils for them, feeding him quickly. Majin Buu then flew for the fight, joining the other eight who flew towards Seventeen, Goku and Eighteen.
"Hey Tien, looks like… besides Krillin… we've all made it to the end, the shadow dragons gone or uh, changed sides."
"Seems that way Chiaotzu, why was Majin Buu still eating? I thought he was supposed to fight. Heck, he was supposed to be already here! Though he vanished a little afterwards." Tien said, looking towards where Majin Buu was, joining the fight and Goku looked to have let him fight instead.
"Uh, I think he was not done eating and came back for his capsule Mr. Hercule gave him, that Majin Buu left somewhere. He must have got it all and returned now. I, we also ran into another shadow dragon on the way here… Raven was going to kill her but Majin Buu turned her into a snack. I used my telekinesis to take her before he could eat her. She's here." Tien seen Chiaotzu hold the chocolate and then, he replied with a nod towards Gohan, who was now listening.
"That must be the other shadow dragon that Gohan spared, having beaten and then knocked out. Well then, make sure she doesn't melt Chiaotzu, put her into one of those fridges and keep it here for now, she should transform back to normal soon enough when Majin Buu forgets about her. Will question her then." Tien glanced around at everyone here. Tien and Chiaotzu… Yamcha, Raditz, Raven, Zangya, Pyrrha, Qrow, Nappa, Bardock, Vegeta the older… Gohan. Then Sixteen, the golden shadow dragon Nouva, Dabura, Cumber, Vegeta the younger, Piccolo, Mira and Eighteen. And those fighting now, Majin Buu, Goku against a mind controlled Seventeen…
They only lost Krillin, this was… well, it wasn't good news, but he could be wished back in no time.
All the children of theirs were safe on the sacred world of the Kai's, the elder Kai was supposed to be training them for their stay there and they also had their capsule gravity room that Blake and Weiss, Yang and whoever else of the adults went to watch over them. Shin was elsewhere, possibly locating Kron, Kibito with him and then there is Bulma, she should be with that lord Beerus and the other dude.
'All in all, we've just about sorted this all. Krillin, Kron… will save you guys, after this.'
