Elder's Blessing
When Bardock and I heard the screaming, we flew back to the village as fast as we could. When we got to the village, the village was being destroyed by these humanoid creatures that had the ability to use ki. They had green skin the same as the Savix, but they were much smaller and significantly weaker than it. In the distance, I could hear this loud but faint stomping, I looked to Bardock to see if he heard it, but he was too busy looking at the scene before us.
"Bardock, where is the space pod?" I asked gathering ki, getting ready to fight.
"Hymn took it to his people's temple he said it would be safe there,"
Before I flew down to help with the battle, I saw a figure out the corner of my eye, watching from a safe distance. I ignored the figure's presence and flew down to fight. I vanish in front of one of the creatures and punch it in its stomach, making it cough up this purple liquid, I then jump up above it, landing a devasting blowing to its head. The creature dropped to the ground with his head split open, leaking the same purple liquid.
I turned around to see a little boy crying and the creature approaching it. The creature began to charge a pure black ki blast, aiming for the kid. I dash toward them and with no time to spare, I grabbed the kid, flying into the air just as the creature released the ki blast.

'All I need is one more but that still doesn't guaranty anything" I thought scanning the area looking for a safe place to put the child.
20 meters away I see a group of women and children in a group, being guarded by 5 people, I look back to Bardock and it was a massacre, Bardock was punching holes through the creature's chest, ripping off their heads with brute strength. In all honesty, it looked as if he were having fun. I fly as fast as I could holding onto the child so he wouldn't fall. Coming up to the group, I blast a hole through one of the creature's chest to make a clear path to them.
"Where's Hymn?" I asked setting the kid down for him to run to his mom before hugging me for saving his life.
"We haven't seen him all day," A man said after killing another creature.
"Ok, three of you go back to the village, get any more people who haven't made it here, and help Bardock. The three of us are going to the temple, that would be the safest option and Hymn might be there" I said.
The three of them nod their heads and disappears toward the village. I nod my head to the two men and they start running toward the temple, followed by the women and child in the middle and me at the rear for better support. It took us about 8 minutes to reach the temple, When he got there it was a long rectangular rock covered this moss. One of the men took out a knife and cut his hand while saying something in their language, After that, the moss on the rock glowed a bright green. The man walked through the rock like it wasn't even there, the rest of the women and children did it and so did I.
While walking down a hallway with bright red flames as a source of light, we finally stopped in the big opening to see a small waterfall and ancient antiques. In the middle, was Hymn sitting completely motionless. He had his shirt off which displayed the many markings on his body that were glowing a dim white. When he opened his eyes, he seemed a little shocked to see so many people there but even more confused.
"Why is everyone here?" Hymn asked confused while putting his shirt back on.
"Sir, these creatures attack the village so we had to find a safe place for the women and children," The man in front of the group said.
"I see, is everyone ok?" Hymn asked with concern.
"We don't know yet sir, we have three men helping Bardock and looking for anyone who isn't in this group," The man said.
"Ok, where is Sato?" Hymn asked sounding like a worried dad.
I make my way through the crowd and present myself.
"Sir, he was the one who saved this child's life and gave us instructions while we were panicking not knowing what to do," The man said lowering his head looking ashamed.
"Lift your head, you have nothing to be ashamed about. Now everyone take a seat, everything is going to alright" Hymn said with a friendly voice.
"Sato, come here," Hymn said with an excited look.
I walk over to Hymn, looking at the setting around me. It seemed so familiar but I have never been to this place before.
"I think if anytime would be a good time to do this, it would be now," Hymn said with a serious look.
"Let's do it," I say with a determined look.
Hymn tells me to take off my shirt and sit on my knees. I do as he says and the men in the group look over with confusion along with the women and children. Hymn started chanting something I couldn't understand, He must have been talking in his native language or something else because the people around looked just as confused as me. After chanting for 5 minutes, the floor started to glow this bright blue, filling up the runic pattern. When Hymn saw this a huge smile appeared on his face, Then Hymn began to write on my body with this cold black paint.
When the black paint covered my upper body except for my head and neck, Hymn stopped. He sat down behind me and began to push his ki into my body, at first I felt very energetic but after a while, my body started to burn. The burning got so bad that I couldn't hold back my yells, The markings on my body began to disappear and my body began to engulf into this white light with a shade of blue.
While everyone was confused about what Hymn was doing and why I was yelling, the man who was protecting the group before I got there, their face turned from confusion to horror. Though he had never seen it, he has only heard about the ones who were deemed worthy to receive their elder's blessing.
"Sir, you can't be serious he could die"
"I'm well aware of that and so is he, I believe that this child is something different. He is beyond anything that I have ever seen" Hymn said pushing more ki into my body.
I let out another yell before my vision went black and I ended up in this dark void. I looked around to see that the void was endless and no one was here.
"Hello, is anybody here," I said in a loud voice that echoed in the dark void.
After 30 seconds of waiting, four people that looked like Hymn appeared in a circle around me, The only difference was that they were much older.
"Oh my, we have a young one this time," A woman said in a shriveled voice.
"Yes indeed," A man said in a low voice.
"You are not one of our people, who brought you here?" The old woman said with a curious face.
"His name is Hymn," I said sounding confident.
"Oi, Hymn you say?" The old man said rubbing his white beard.
"So you think you are worthy to receive our blessing?" The man who was the quietest along with another old woman.
"That isn't something I should decide," I said taking a knee and lowering my head.
"I like this kid," The old man said with a smile with the woman agreeing.
"I don't think he is worthy of receiving my blessing," The old man said with an uninterested face.
"I agree" The old woman turning her head.
"If I am not worthy of receiving both of your blessings, I'm sorry but I cannot take your blessings either," I said with my head done in an apologetic tone.
Once I said that the old man and women who rejected giving me their blessing face turned to pleased and accepting one.
"You have proved to us that you are worthy of our blessings," The man said with a smile.
All four of them walked up to me surrounding me, then this white light came from their hands, dawning on me. I felt a rush of energy come into my body, it was the best thing I have ever felt. When I came back to the real world, Hymn was talking to one of the men, when he saw I was awake, Hymn's face had a big smile on it. Everyone else in the room was shocked that I received the blessing of their elders when I am not apart of their race. As I'm really analyzing the crowd, I didn't see Iwa anywhere. I could felt only two emotions. Worry and Anger.

'So this means that means if I go through a Zenkai right now, My power level will increase by 10, and on top of that the power from the Zenkai.' I thought with a huge grin on my face.
"Hymn, how do I get out of here? I need to go back and fight" I said with a stern look of determination.
"Follow me, Sato" Hymn said walking back to the brightly lit hallway.
