19 Chapter 18

You looked behind you to see Amina, back to normal.

Y/n: Healthy again.

Amina: Yeah, and stronger.

Y/n: Not stronger than me.

Amina: Of course. Especially with super saiyan!

Y/n: What?... How'd you know?

Amina: I came over and heard the last bit of the conversation, or some of it.

Sage: Some conversation.

Amina: But how?

Neros: Lots of pain.

Sage: And training.

Y/n: Yeah, that.

May: In three months time?

Neros: Yep. Pretty much.

Taz: What do you mean-

Kore: Pretty much.

Y/n:*sigh* I don't really want to explain... but the main deal is that we're stronger than Prince Thomas but weaker than Prince Victor at our base power.

Kore: So what happens when you go full.

Y/n: We surpa-

Sage: I'm pretty sure the super saiyan boost is the same for everyone.

Taz: It's also rumored that he can go past a super saiyan.

Kore: Super Saiyan 2, the ascension of a regular super saiyan.

Y/n: If I'm not wrong, that doubles your power.

May: Yep.

Y/n: So my point stands. Sage, Neros come.

You go to a private location. You then explain your reasoning and tell them about the backup plan.

Sage: Well, we did master super saiyan.

Y/n: Exactly.

Neros: So it'll basically be like our own version.

Y/n: More or less.

Sage: Great idea.

Y/n: In stages though, slowly reaching up.

You go back to the group, it was time for the Round Three draw. On your way there, Skip asked a question that left you in a pause.

Skip: So how are you gonna do it? You can't just go all out.

Y/n: It'll be quicker.

May: They say that if you or your brothers one-shot anyone again, they'll change the rules.

Sage: In what way.

Liz: Prior to the match every elite that has the ability, will go super saiyan.

You laugh a little.

Y/n: Why?

Amina: To stop you three.

Neros: He sees us as a threat doesn't he.

Skip: Yep.

Y/n: Bittersweet, this can change, it can change, there is going to be a change! I will change!

You exclaimed, happy within your self.

Skip: So?

Taz: What's the game plan?

Sage: Stay within nine hundred million, and give a good match.

Neros: Make them think we were flukes.

Y/n: We should struggle by a lot too. Make it seem like we were barely able to stand up to the "overwhelming power" of an elite.

Neros: Solid plan.

Sage: Indeed.

That's how it all went down when you fought you showed struggle to your opponent, you would show them that the first two rounds were due to luck. Due to speed and the cockiness of your opponent. Once you went up you let your opponents beat you down into a pulp until it was time to fire back. You slowly raised power to beat your opponent and once you finished, you showed definite pain.

Letting everyone know that you barely won, especially the royal family. When it was time to return back to the fighter's room you showed pain while walking off. After the three of you finished your matches, and you were the last one to fight of the three, Sage asked:

Sage: Think we've fooled them.

You looked at the royal balcony seeing the family talking.

Y/n: Yeah definitely.

He patted your back and the both of you entered the room to spectate.

Liz: You guys need a senzu?

Neros: No, not at all.

Out of the rest of you, Taz went up next. You didn't think much, you already knew he was gonna go out. He told you so, he said he wanted to go out knowing he went his all and knowing he didn't use anyone's help.

Like a true warrior. Excepting his fate but still ending up going at his maximum effort. That alone, was one thing that stood out.

He created his own statement with that. Work hard to achieve something, don't cheat your way there because in the end... when times get too hard for you... how are you gonna cheat your way out of that one?

After Taz lost.

Taz returned severely injured but smiling. You told the medics to leave, and that you could deal with this yourselves. You gave him a senzu bean, and everyone gave him a pat for giving it his all total best. The mood wasn't bad and depressing, but hopeful. Taz had shown what it meant to fight with heart, he didn't just forfeit from strength, he kept on going with his head up high.

Regardless of what was the result was gonna be. Soon after you took him outside where you could here the after-match chants. They were negative but you were there to look at the positive.

Y/n: That... doesn't matter. Them.

You pointed at the Vegeta family, then the elites, and then the crowd. You nodded.

Y/n: They don't matter. Forget'em. They don't know much you've tried to get here, how much effort you put in to go beyond your limits. They don't know. The change. The dedication we have in our blood.

Taz: Our low-class blood.

Y/n: Don't worry about class either, that doesn't matter. What matters, is the amount of heart we have towards fighting.

Taz: And the hard work.

Y/n: Exactly.

You paused for a moment.

Y/n: Don't let society corrupt you... Don't let the world force you to follow its rules. Don't let them change you so that you'll go by there wishes. Don't change for them. Don't let anyone drag you down. Follow that small light... and bring yourself up to depths never seen before.
