Go Golden!

The headbutt Broly delivered sent Zyleth to his knees, the ground beneath them crumbling away. 

"Urrgh!" 

That headbutt was the first time Zyleth had felt pain since this fight began, and it hit him like a freight train. 

As he pushed back, Zyleth felt something warm traveling down the bridge of his nose, his eyes widening once he understood what the sensation was. 

Blood.

The sudden realization that he was bleeding ran through Zyleth like cold water, causing his rationale mind to finally push itself back through to the surface despite being in his Evil Saiyan state. 

How long had it been since someone had managed to make him bleed? 

Seeing his position, he quickly powered up and tried to push back against Broly. To his shock, it didn't seem to have made much of a difference. If anything, they seemed as if they now were evenly matched. 

"He's struggling?!" Lila exclaimed in utter shock. 

"So it would seem." Cooler says, looking on with an unreadable expression. 

Lila just couldn't believe it herself. 

Just a second ago, Broly was getting beaten into the ground. Now he's suddenly on par with Zyleth whilst he was in his Evil Saiyan transformation? 

It didn't make any sense! Super Saiyan or not, Zyleth's strength and power should be far higher than Broly's!

Broly and Zyleth pushed against each other, neither one seemingly having any advantage over the other until Zyleth felt his feet slowly start to move backward. 

"RRAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!"

Broly let out a deafening roar as he started to push Zyleth back more and more. 

Zyleth groaned underneath the weight of the Legendary Super Saiyan, knowing that this was going absolutely nowhere. Going against Broly with raw power alone would end with him losing everytime. 

It's as if Broly's power had no limit to how high it could go. 

Every time he increased his power, Broly just responded by increasing his own, always managing to overshadow him just enough so that he was on the back burner. 

"Rrr-Rnnngg!" Zyleth groaned as he pushed back, his hair and aura flickering a bright fiery red as he tried focusing on redirecting his energy inward. 

Almost as if he felt the need to end this immediately, Broly suddenly let out another roar and increased his power even further, overpowering Zyleth and driving him into the ground. 

Not done with him just yet, Broly charged a powerful beam in his mouth and released it downward, hitting Zyleth again with a point blank attack, this time being much more effective. 

"Zyleth!" Lila called out to him with extreme worry. 

Lila's shout caused Broly to turn his gaze upward, seeing the two spectators floating off by the sidelines. 

Once his eyes fell upon the emotionless Frost Demon, his gaze widened before his power suddenly shot up to unprecedented levels. 

The Frost Demon himself flinched a bit as the Saiyan Berserker's power seemed to grow and overflow with seemingly no end in sight. 

"Fr- FRIEZAAAA!!!" Broly yelled out as his anger pushed his power to even greater levels, the influx of green energy turning the atmosphere around them into some sort of apocalyptic event. 

Cooler's eyes narrowed at the sound of his brother's name, but he pushed that aside and quickly shifted into his True Form, readying himself for a fight. 

"Don't think that you'll make it off this planet alive!" Cooler yelled in anger as he powered up. 

But before Broly could charge towards the Frost Demon, the ground below Broly's feet shook as a bright red light shone through.

A hand suddenly ripped through the soil and gripped onto Broly's ankle before Zyleth suddenly flew out of the ground, looking skinnier and sporting bright red hair. 

Zyleth gripped Broly's ankle with his other hand and started to spin him around before throwing him across the eroding marsh. 

"He's alive..." Cooler muttered, as he watched Zyleth blitz towards Broly. 

He should've expected it, Zyleth is not so easily killed, but he couldn't help but feel something was different about him. 

That change of appearance seemed more than just a power up. 

____________________

I reach at Broly and kick him down towards the ground. As he fell, I rushed towards him and hit him with a heavy punch as soon as he landed, pushing him down even deeper. 

Broly gets up and tries to power up again, but I quickly hit him with a kick to his gut before spinning in the air and landing another kick to the side of his head. 

He slams into the ground once more and I don't let him get the chance to get up again as I pelt him with a volley of powerful Ki blasts, using them to push myself into the air in order gain a fair bit of distance from him.

I need to finish this fast. 

If he manages to get even a small chance to regain his footing, I'm afraid that I may lose. 

After establishing a good enough distance away, I hold my arms to the sky and charge a bright red ball of energy. 

"Hhhraaaaaagh!" I shout as I point the attack down towards Broly and released it. 

The blast immediately broke apart into hundreds of different red beams that rained down from the sky and mercilessly hit Broly over and over again, driving him even deeper into the planet's crust. 

I relentlessly continued my attack, not wanting to take anymore chances. 

If I didn't put him down now, he'll keep getting stronger and stronger until he eclipses even the power of Saiyan God. 

As I keep up my attack, I fail to notice that my body switches from skinny to muscular, and my hair starts to flicker between red and black.

"Please..." Lila muttered softly under her breath. 

"What? What is it?" Cooler asked, still in his true form. 

"It's Zyleth..." She replied. "I'm worried about him..."

"Doesn't seem like he needs much worrying." He said as he watched Zyleth punch Broly into the ground. 

"That may be how it looks, but he's never trained using his God form..." She told him, her hand clutched over her heart. 

"What...?" Cooler asked, his brows shooting up in surprise. "Did you just say 'God form'?!"

Lila nodded grimly, her eyes and mind still heavily focused on Zyleth's fight. 

"You're telling me that Zyleth somehow managed to obtain the powers of a god?!" Cooler exclaimed. "How is this possible?!"

"I don't know! If you want to know so badly, ask him!" She suddenly yelled at the Frost Demon. 

Cooler was about to let his anger get the best of him when he quickly got a hold of himself. He was always a bit more prone to aggression in his True Form than in his Fourth, but he learned to get a handle on it. 

The woman obviously cared about Zyleth and she obviously was in no mood to talk whilst he was fighting for his life. 

"Oh no..." Lila suddenly gasped.

"What is it?" Cooler asked as he looked over towards the battle, seeing Zyleth rain down energy blasts onto Broly. 

As he watched, the color of some of the blasts Zyleth fired were a darkish yellow color instead of the bright red color of the blasts before and after them. 

"His God power is running out." Lila muttered. 

"That's not good... If he lets up before that berserker is down and out, we're all going to die on this planet." Cooler said as his hands clenched into fists. 

"There... There is something we could do..." Lila said suddenly, looking over towards Cooler. 

____________________

Damnit, no... 

I feel my blasts getting weaker and weaker until the bright red color shifts back into the normal dark yellow of my base form. 

I try and focus again on redirecting my power inward, but the rising panic I felt as Broly starts to push himself up causes my focus to waver.

My black hair pulses red as I try desperately to attain the focus necessary to transform, but I can only manage to hold it for only a second before it slips away. 

I'm panicking...

I hear Broly groan and I immediately establish a mental link between Lila and I. 

'Lila, use Kai Kai to get you and everyone else off this planet!' 

I wait for a response, but I don't hear her voice. 

'Lila! Take everyone and--!'

"Need a hand?"

I hear Cooler's voice sound off from behind me and I look over my shoulder to see him floating above me, the majestic shine of his Golden Form radiating a powerful pressure through the air. 

I can't see his face from underneath that bio-mask, but I know when he's smirking at me. 

"Move!" He yelled out as he held up his right hand, a small yellow-orange ball of energy forming in his palm. 

My eyes widened in shock and I quickly use Kai Kai to teleport behind him. 

As the last of my blasts rain down, Broly finally stands up and looks up towards the sky, seeing Cooler holding a massive Supernova. 

"GET OUT OF MY SIGHT!" Cooler yelled as he threw the Supernova down towards Broly. 

Not left with another option, Broly stood his ground and caught the Supernova, trying desperately to push it back. 

"Rrrr-rrrr-RAAAAAAAGGHHHH!!!!"

Broly dug in his heels and actually managed to start pushing back against it. 

"Zyleth!" Cooler called out. 

"Right!" I responded. 

I close my eyes and focus, transforming into my Saiyan God form once again before holding my left hand up towards the sky. Cooler flew next to me holding his right and we both charged another Supernova, this one red in color with a golden core. 

""STAY DOWN!!!""

We threw the Supernova down on top of the other, causing Broly to stagger. The GodNova consumed the first and added it to its own power before slamming down on Broly with incredible force. 

This proved too much for the Legendary Super Saiyan as he lost his hold on the Supernova and was slowly being consumed by its light. 

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHHHHHH!!!"

With that last pain-filled roar, Cooler clenched his fist and the Supernova collapsed in on itself, causing a massive, powerful explosion that we had to shield ourselves from. 

I conjure a barrier around the both of us. We watch as huge pieces of debris start hitting the barrier, the planet below seemed to be engulfed in a massive bright light until the explosion finally dissipates, revealing a giant hole in the planet's crust. 

"We... We destroyed the planet's core..." I muttered softly.

"We're just lucky that we didn't immediately destroy the planet itself." Cooler said as he reverted back to his Fourth Form. 

I quickly search for Broly's energy signature but turn up empty handed. 

"Damnit..." I said through gritted teeth before letting out a deep breath and sitting down on the floor of my barrier. 

"What's wrong?" He asked. 

"Nothing. Just looking back on our near death experience" I told him. 

Since I was going to bring Broly back anyway, there was no point in fretting about. Especially since I'm gonna wish for their memories of this situation to be altered.

Although I considered Cooler an ally, I don't think it would be beneficial if he knew about the Dragon Balls. 

And Broly suddenly being alive would definitely cause him to start asking questions. 

"Shouldn't be too shocking. How many times have you almost died?" He asked with a shit-eating grin. 

"Ha. Ha. Fucking asshole..." I muttered before asking, "Mind explaining the whole... gold... thing that you had going on?" 

"That, we both would have to get explained to us." He replied. 

I raised an eyebrow, wondering what he meant by that exactly.

"There... There is something we can do..." Lila said suddenly, looking over towards Cooler. "You need to go Golden." 

Cooler looked at her with a strange expression. 

"Excuse me?" He said. 

"Inside especially exceptional Frost Demons lies a dormant transformation that, once released, gives you the power to rival even the gods." She explained. "It's locked deep within you, all you have to do is tap into it." 

"Golden form... The power to rival gods..." Cooler muttered. "How do you know this?" 

"I just... I just do." She said, looking away from him, seeing that Zyleth's God form had run out. "Please, save Zyleth and I'll answer whatever questions you have later!"

Cooler stared at the woman with an analytical eye, wondering what secrets she was keeping inside that mind of hers. Eventually his focus turned back towards Zyleth and he clicked his tongue against his cheek. 

Clenching his fists, Cooler yelled out as he pushed his power to greater and greater levels than he had ever attempted. 

If this woman was telling the truth and there really was a Golden Form, he will achieve it! 

For he was Lord Cooler! Supreme Master of the Universe!

"Haaaaaa--HAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

Cooler's energy burst from his body, but the normal purple glow was instead a bright gold. 

His body changed, taking on a golden sheen with some small parts of his body becoming a purplish pink color. He looked down at himself, feeling more power coursing through his body than he could have ever imagined.  

This was entirely different than Zyleth's Godly power. 

Zyleth's gave out an unfathomable amount of pressure, the result of keeping your energy inside and tempering it with ridiculous amounts of control. 

Cooler's energy wasn't like this. 

This was power. 

Pure, simple, unparalleled power. 

"Cooler!" Lila called out. 

Snapping out of his trance, Cooler turned his gaze upward and saw Broly slowly rising from to his feet. 

"We'll talk about this later." Cooler told her before rushing towards Zyleth.
