Chapter 27
Upon Nova's return she had a better idea and a possibility of achieving a higher form for her father excluding Ebba from the picture as this relied more of positive energy than negative he used against the so called blood father that almost killed him in a selfish brawl over Who could be her real father.
"My feelings were based of fighting for my family, but I believe that there is a real positive Divine form higher than MUI other than the negative opposite FGLB that Ebba used to push me to my edge and reach this Divine state. Vegeta would be able to use FGLB though due to almost being angry at everything, a perfect match!" Nova joked along as Vegeta scoffed looking away with crossed arms before a small smirk came across his face expecting much from her positive attitude while Goku laughed along excited to see if this could actually be possible.
"Alright! Let's get started already, I'm getting pumped from just thinking about it!" Goku explained clenching a fist in front of him with a wide smile ready to be pushed to his absolute limits.
"So, are we both fighting you or is it a free for all? Anything will do as long as I can have a piece of your power and take you down!" Vegeta asked growing impatient secretly wanting to fight as well depending on what she decides is better. Nova her index finger over mouth in a thinking manner as right now she was basically their teacher and failure isn't an option as they're her responsibility until the goal has been reached.
"What do you both want? I'm fine with both really" She replied not caring if it's 2v1 or free for all as the two saiyans were left to discuss for themselves which was kinda a change, but it didn't take them long to decide.
"Free for all sounds way for fun, lets go with that" Goku replied as Nova agreed expecting much as thing would not only make them stronger, but give her the opportunity to heighten her new form to improve beyond its current limitations and prosper if she wants a chance of keeping ahead of her unexpected pupils.
"I can't believe I'm allowing you to teach me how to get stronger" Vegeta slightly complained as she looked at him with a 'are you sure about that' expression silencing him for now.
"You do want to become stronger than my dad one day, right? Then don't complain!" She responded knowing him too well and what one of his huge goals are remaining the same ever since he first lost to the saiyan. Nova saw no movement as she flailed her arms in confusion on why they aren't moving before sighing looking slight upset when facing both palms at them as a smirk came across her face seeing their shocked reactions.
"W-wait! We aren't ready?!" Goku exclaimed in a panic as she groaned rolling her eyes knowing for a fact that he was lying as he quickly grabbed and quickly used instant transmission to avoid the blames she fired that weren't really that powerful as she looked up at them making it pretty clear that their training has begun.
"Get off me!" Vegeta yelled pushing Goku's hand off from his shoulder not thankful for the save as this was a free for all even though anything can happen in those type of matches including team ups especially that usually end with a last one standing between buddies, but for this Nova was thinking on going hard on them and force them to their best before bringing out her Divine form. However Nova's remained stood there staring up at them seeing them arguing mainly Vegeta as she took that as an advantage using her father's method and appeared behind them hitting the Prince in the back sending him flying straight down to the ground from just using both of her hands as she quickly glanced at Goku who got serious finally seeing that she wasn't planning on going easy on them.
"If you think I was really going easy on you then, heh. You thought wrong, pops" Nova replied still looking rather cocky as he smirked back as she knew better than to hold back on him or it wouldn't be any fun would it?
"You know me too well. HAAAA!" He replied before transforming into Super Saiyan Blue following his gut instinct that she too was holding back, but only until things become serious and more interesting. Vegeta finally got up seeing the two fighting feeling left out as he too transformed into his SSB matching at least one of them in strength before using the ground for better momentum and took off straight at Nova who felt his energy quickly grabbing Goku's Gi switching places which caused Vegeta to hit him in the face instead as he hissed knowing how much that could've hurt and quickly grew some distance as Vegeta realised who he had just hit regretting every decision he had made so far. "What the heck Vegeta?!" Goku yelled while holding the side of his face where the impact had hit him never having the thought on yelling at the one who choreographed the attack as she was literally just watching them from a safe distance.
"Then stay out of my way then!" Vegeta yelled back as she remained floating there listening and hearing on as they continued to argue like kids over some toy or the last piece of candy. "Ans to correct you, Kakarot. Nova was the one that made me hit you! Not the other way around, you idiot!" He added on before quickly catching on as he looked over at her as she nervously waved along with a suspicious smile clearly very guilty from the stunt she had pulled to avoid one of Vegeta's heavy attacks.
"I'm guilty" Nova confessed putting her hands up to her chest in a surrendering manner before putting them down seconds later clearly a lot smarter than they thought her to be despite being an artist with a very creative mind so why no use it to get yourself out of very tight situation?
"You little cheater, heh. I guess should've seen this coming" Goku praised glad to see that she was using her creativity on the field than just in her sketchbooks as she shrugs her shoulders not expecting what's to come as out of nowhere Ebba landed a powerful blow to her back slam dunking her into the ground knocking her out almost instantly as the two remained shocked floating there expecting nothing other than a friendly due, but that soon went down the drain. "Grr. You bastard! You're going to pay for that?!" Goku exclaimed about to dash at him when Vegeta stopped him not wanting the idiot to get himself in the same situation like Nova, unconscious and easy to kill. However something was different this aura he had didn't feel like Ebba's so what's the deal?
"Your expressions never fail to entertain me, truly they don't. However playtime is over now that your last hope is out cold counting sheep. *brings out his spirit sword* It's time to finish what I've started" Ebba replied until another version of him came out of nowhere this time in front of Goku and Vegeta, but more badly beaten up actually wanting to protect them than what this opposite was trying to do.
"What is happening?! And why is there two of you now?" Goku yelled confused on who's who and what Ebba should be trust not really thinking that one could potentially be Xzander this entire time and they just haven't noticed? Or am I just over thinking it?
"You idiot! Can't you see the difference? The evil one is clearly Xzander and we've been training with the fraud without even realising. Why do you think he was trying to kill us? Our plans on overpowering him are gone and there's nothing we can do to stop it" Vegeta replied clearly already catching onto the situation finally piecing everything together so Goku wouldn't blow a fuse trying.
"You knew?! Why didn't you tell me?" Goku yelled back in shocked wanting to know why Vegeta kept this all to himself even if he really didn't other than piece the obvious pieces together. However Zora was somehow in the room too which was odd despite the circumstances of death being very high for someone his age and lack of fighting experience as he was beside his mother's unconscious body crying thinking she was dead yelling out for her to reply, but failed.
"I didn't know about this, you idiot! Like I just said I pieced up all the piec--Ugh! I don't even know why I'm even trying, you wouldn't understand anyway!" Vegeta gave up trying to explain as the real Ebba turned his head back at Goku looking serious at the Saiyan revealing how serious this has become and must be contained before it gets even worse.
"I need both of you to transform into your highest states and fuse! We haven't a lot of time left!" Ebba yelled giving them a direct order as the two landed before transforming into their current highest states being MUI and MUE (Mastered Ultra Ego) in their their glory before preparing to do the fusion dance seeing if both these forms catch actually combine and become one stable being.
"Do you think a pathetic fusion can match up against me?" Xzander replied being as cocky as always with the so called power he had stolen from Nova that doesn't seem to stop increasing despite always sitting on his ass on that throne he stole.
"Where's your little slave, brother? Did you finally get bored of him following you around all day?" Ebba asked not seeing Clyde anywhere to be seen which is odd as he was always by his side no matter where he goes as Xzander just scoffed with a maniacal smirk giving his brother what he needed to know before Gogeta was brought into the fight, but luckily for them the dimensional realm gives them an extra 25 minutes when fusion is used making last 55 minutes instead of 30 as the Ki is more balanced out not allowing the mix of MUI and MUE drain the time like it's supposed to do when out of this dimensional realm. "What's wrong, scared?" Ebba asked with a slight smirk feeling the fear quivering within Xzander and yet he neither of them was in their FGLB form so this could be avoided if he just transforms there and now.
"Prepare to be squashed by the Ultimate Fusion!" Gogeta yelled as Nova was slowly regaining consciousness thanks to Zora continuously shaking and yelling at her really getting on Xzander's nerves as he aimed his hand down and blasted a deadly attack straight at the poor boy as the blast seemed to have hit them covering the area with smoke, but when it faded nothing was there until looking to the right as Gogeta could be seen cradling Nova while Zora remained stood closely clinging to his silk trousers while the fusion coldly glared at the evil saiyan wishing nothing, but death upon them. Nova was laid down in a safe alongside her son allowing her brothers and Zorion to deal with her leaving the fusion to do his job.
Gogeta transmission beside Ebba in silence making no eye contact whatsoever leaving Xzander to remained glued onto the fused warrior. " And who are you meant to be?" he asked not sure of what to call this being that is merged between the current strongest warriors in this room that are capable of fighting against a monster like Xzander.
"We're Gogeta! You're not getting out of this alive!" The fusion responded making the villain laugh hysterically not taking the Saiyan seriously enough anymore even with their intense combined strength of the power of the Angels and the Destroyers.
"You wish! I have the power to destroyer now, and there is nothing you can do about it" Xzander replied exposing that he too has a new power brewing within him just like everyone else here training nonstop in there own way to stop this mad man from destroying the everything they've worked so hard to achieve.
"Oh really? Why don't you show us this so called power you have, huh? Unless you're lying" Gogeta said in a mocking manner successfully managing to anger Xzander as Ebba groaned rolling his eyes feeling his twin's anger begin to grow, but that all changed when the mad man began to transform reaching the state that was most definitely higher than FGLB leaving Ebba in shock as he hasn't gotten that far yet let alone thought that anything could surpass it. Xzander's form was obsolete and very negative as it was very similar to SSJ4, but his hair was longer and wilder, purple with long black bangs so was his fur matching the colour his hair as a red X was painted on the center of his forehead as a huge pinkish red V was painted on his chest as two distinctive red stripes could be seen on his cheek bone, but nowhere else on his body while both retinas were blacked out leaving only white eyes and black pupils to remain glaring at Ebba and Gogeta who was stunned by the power he had gained throughout a short amount of time.
"How did you manage to surpass it? It's practically impossible! There is no form in history that can surpass the Fiery Godly Limit Breaker!" Ebba exclaimed refusing to believe that his own brother surpassed the form that only they posses, but Gogeta too thanks to Goku and yet he refused to use it die to the negative that resigned within it.
"It even surpasses SSJ5, MUI and MUE too, hm. I think we'll be able to match up with him if you fuse with me since Nova is still unable to fight" Gogeta said turning to Ebba willing to fuse with the God this one time even in his injured state they can possibly out match Xzander if they continue to push themselves to higher limits.
"I don't think I'll be compatible enough, and the power he has is far greater than mine now so even if we fuse it won't be enough to take him down" Ebba replied as Gogeta gave him the 'really' look seeing their chances of beating Xzander was now slim to none, but how long do they have to waste until the sleeping beauty wakes from her slumber before it is too late. Ebba was easily pushed aside allowing the two higher beings fight things out knowing exactly who will come out as the victor and yet the fight continued with endless beams and punches dealing heavy damage to both of the warriors gradually make one another weak with every successful punch that never fails to deliver.
"Ugh, my head" Nova complained sitting up on a bed that was set up inside the training room far away from the fight that was taking place and has been for the past 45 minutes as her awakening brought some light on the situation as she looked around seeing Zora sleeping sounding beside her despite her endless explosions going off in the distance. Gohan was notified rushing over to her like a brother should over a younger sibling especially a sister.
"Don't move so much. You took quite a punch" he said leaving her to sit there in silence hearing the heavy brawl between the two, but something seemed to catch her attention when Gogeta's power suddenly became split causing her to jump out and rush outside just as the two warrior that made the fusion came crashing down forcing her to rush over to her father who was heavily damaged luckily still in his MUI transformation before looking up at him as if he hadn't expected her to be there to pick him up.
"Oh. When did you wake up? Hopefully for awhile as we really need your help.." Gorky responded as he looked up at Xzander who lost interest now had Ebba's neck tightly gripped in his hand allowing her to see him in such a powerful state a form she despised more than anything.
"I will defeat him, but at what cost?" Nova thought gently putting him back down leaving the Saiyan alone as she slowly walked forward giving herself one space stopping in one spot especially before closing her eyes clearly all negativity in order to be one with herself again transforming into her Divine state and reappeared in front of him finally getting his interest.
"Ah. The sleeping beauty has finally awoken, it took you long enough or I would've killed all your friends and then yourself, but clearly destiny had better things set out for us" Xzander said with a satisfied smirk finally seeing a worthy challenge. However before things could get interesting a unknown KI made itself known confusing the ones that could sense it as it was familiar with God KI making the Xzander 'tch' in response of feeling this energy that was very familiar to him. "Grr! Why do you have to ruin everything for me?!" He randomly exclaimed no longer looking at Nova as she was glancing at this new person that had somehow entered within her domain forcing her to out up her defences.
"You should know better than to fight someone like her? Are you trying to piss her off?" The mysterious challenger replied referencing to another her other than Nova making Xzander roll his eyes while growling as he turned around to face him pausing the fearless God in his place on realising who exactly who he was looking at while giving us a better glance at what this being looked like and how they have such a dangerous villain stuck in fear.
He appeared to be young like Nova, but a few years older than her. Possibly a Saiyan? Sadly he wasn't completely one as his tail was light brown slightly longer and fluffier closely resemblance more of a Zire-Jin than a monkey or a Toura-Jin and yet his hair was brown match his tail by colour as it was spiky and soft like a Siayan's as it appeared to not be too long, but it seemed to have reached a bit over his shoulders as he was currently in his SSJ4 Limit Breaker transformation with two respective bangs that were visible at the front with his serious looking yellow eyes as a scar could be visibly seem over his right not blinding it in anyway as another could be see on the left side of his cheek bone proving that he was no ordinary warrior. He was wearing a black form-fitting short-sleeved shirt and black pants with black Kung fu shoes and stockings to match. A ripped red flowing vest could be seen fighting secured about his waist with a a blue obi tied tightly around his waist, wrists and ankles just to make his appearance more appealing and far more mature due to taking his duties seriously when confronting strong opponents like Xzander himself.
"Don't you even dare try and intervene with my affairs, Xeno!" Xzander exclaimed as the newcomer just tossed his arms together slowly shaking his head as if he wasn't afraid of his guy at all or was just acting all big an hard because he was in front of a lady.
"I have to, I'm her bodyguard" He responded exposing his duty there and then confusing Nova lightly tilting her head at the guy who looked back at her knowing that he would probably have to explain everything later after the threat is taken care off.
"NO! You can't be serious!" Ranging to himself Xzander quickly glanced back at Nova who was caught off guard as he lifted his hand up growing increasingly impatient. "I might as well end your lousy contract then!" He growled causing Xeno to grit his teeth in response as the deadly attack being charged up. "HAKAI?!" Yelling in all of his glory wantin to rid his own niece fro the face of the Multiverse, but just when it was coming at her the brave newcomer got in the way taking the attack for himself forcing him to use a force field hat required a lot of energy as an explosion was made allowing the unaware Xzander to laugh at what he thought was double kill. However when the smoke began to Lear all became clear making the God wide eyed seeing them still there untouched and completely intact, but Xeno's face remained serious glaring at the blood shedding mass murderer with killing intentions only. "Tch! You silvery brat! Why won't you just die?!" Lashing out at the guy who blocked the first before grabbing Nova and transmissioned over to Goku grabbing him then Ebba until completely disappearing from eye view leaving Zorion and the others on their own as the ones he chosen to tag along were dropped off on a unfamiliar looking planet, peaceful and yet beautiful.
"Welcome..." A familiar and yet welcoming voice called out at them making the two look up and when they did both Nova and Ebba were left speechless at the familiar they're seeing while Goku was out cold on the floor possibly sleeping unaware of the change in the scenery or who he'l be met for the first time.
