Chapter 20: Patience & training is a virtue.~


A/N: Hey peeps, I FINALLY FIGURED OUT HOW TO MAKE THIS WORK! I managed to combine a bit of the movie I followed about Beerus and Goku fighting, by adding a bit of my own plot afterward to it then slowly step into the golden Freiza saga! :D

That's right, I'm on episode 15, I hope Eglantina gets to meet Frieza in the future...heheeeeeee~~ ;D

In this chapter, I made a few edits in the scenes from the actual anime, so I could mention some things that were in my own plot. Please don't be mad, I tried to make it as natural sounding as possible D:!

-----------


In the hyperbolic time chamber, Akasma was out in the white void standing on the pallid flooring. Her eyes were shut and her hood was over her mask, preparing for something. I must train my speed if I wish to be faster to keep up with Eglantina... she mentally stated, the mask over her mouth sucking in and out as she breathed. Instantly opening her only visible Aeronan eye, she crouched down, leaned forward slightly with her hands behind her, and narrowed her gaze. I will not stop until I'm on par with her skills! Exclaiming in her head with her soft voice, she had determination lacing her words and it showed in her irises. As if on cue, she used her Whistling Wind technique and vanished.


Just to make it visible to see her, it showed her sprinting like a rogue with her arms behind her. Her hood had been brushed off her head from the gust and her hair extension flailed behind her majestically. Her legs moved at a rapid pace, wind whirled all around her body and her hair was pushed back. The scene changed to a faraway view, exposing how fast she was. Faint white blurs zipped all over the void, almost making her blend in with the pallid environment.


She decided to try one of Eglantina's techniques and began to zoom around in a large circle. She slowly closed in towards the center with the sound of whistling wind echoing through the atmosphere. Soon she reached the middle of the room, disappeared, and reappeared above the center in the air. Her legs up to her torso and her arms up behind her, you could tell her irises were strongly focused...cause her turquoise pupils had shrunk.


She took out her short whip sword from its sheathe, whipped it out, and struck the tile in the center. With the tile uprooting from the strike, she used her technique and flashed past it, causing it to break in half; her arm out to the side and in a kneeling position. She spun slowly, soon picked up the pace, then became almost invisible from the Whipping Wind technique.


Her whip sword had extended after she picked up the pace, looking like a top-spinner. She jumped up and continued whirling, moving sideways to be in a horizontal position. The girl vanished once more, using her Whistling Wind and keeping her Whipping Wind active; soon appearing out in the distance with a long crack trailing from her path. As soon as she froze in place, she waited for the final touch and kept her sword to the side, whilst leaning slightly on one knee sideways. It wasn't long when the tiles flew up in the air in chunks behind her, soon crumbling into pieces.


Disappearing once more, she zoomed past the crumbling chunks in the air and sliced through them again. She did this a couple of times, going back and forth with her sword hitting every tiny debris that the crumbling chunks would make. After she was done, she appeared back in the spot where she was before and watched as particle-sized debris fell like soot or ash along the crack. Turning a direction away from the falling particles, she leaned forward, tucked her sword underneath her other arm against her hip, and gripped tightly on the handle. Swatting it out, multiple swipes of her whip blade extended out quite a long way and looked like a flashing light before her. Her Whipping Wind skill coated both her arms, as she did this. Seeing as her sword is made of metal, a light would gloss across it from the environment and make it look like streaks of gleaming white flashing.


She stopped, kneeled down, and took a hold of her dagger that resided in her rogue shoe, then flipped it to where the blade part stuck out the outer-part of her hand. She reverted her sword back to its blade form and did the same, as she did with her dagger. Crossing both weapons in an X formation, she jerked her arms back out and took a stance. One knee stuck out and kneeled while the other leg was straight, almost laying flat. She vanished, swiped her dagger countless times, and imagined a target in front of her. Pretending the target jumped back after blocking her dagger swipes, she twirled to the side and struck her whip sword out. She'd move it like a dagger and switch to its whip form, then to its sword form constantly; acting like she was brushing ranged attacks away then swiping out her whip to attack back.


Seeing her invisible target getting closer, she vanished and appeared almost to its feet. She spun in an almost crouching position, aimed her dagger out sideways to cut its legs, and barely managed to hit it. The target appeared behind her, only for her to jump, flip forward quickly in place and have her sword in between her legs so she could cut him. It worked, the target got sliced on its chest and it made it stumble back. She took that chance to act, so she jumped up, wrapped her legs around its neck, and pushed it down on its back.


The girl did a backflip, landed on its stomach, and rose her dagger up to pierce its skull. Though one thing made her stop...even if it was an imaginary target...she couldn't do it... Her hand wavered from hesitance, her back straight and her irises looked down at the foe. Her grip tightened and she shut her eyes, soon bringing it down and stabbing the flooring beside its head... She couldn't do it at all... I...I can't... I can't take a life... I don't want to hurt anyone...and when I was determined to kill that blue man from earlier...I wouldn't have done it either... I'm too weak-minded, too soft...I can't kill... I'm pathetic... Mentally doubted herself, Akasma put herself down due to not being able to even pull off a simple imaginary kill. She shook her head, stood up, and sheathed her sword along with her dagger.


I must keep practicing, I may not be able to kill...but I can knock them out! If I have to kill Eglantina...then she'll just have to kill me instead... I will not kill... I refuse to... she said in her head and grew a determined look in her eyes, soon taking out her bow. Her eyes closed then pictured several targets ahead of her and opened them once more. Round targets appeared all around her now, in the air, on the ground, and in all angles. She could do this, she believed in herself that she could get stronger and that's what she believed will happen.


Disappearing, she jumped into the air, pulled the string back, and fazed red ki beads out from her body. She performed her Star Burst technique, making thousands upon thousands of red arrows shoot out from all angles. She looked like a red gleaming star, shining brightly from the distance. Though with every arrow hitting its invisible target, it actually hit nothing as the void had no limitations within.


Though one could see big and red explosions appear from afar, indicating its power. The same happened when they hit the tiled flooring, only with it being closer in range, massive spheres of red explosions occurred and covered up a good amount of space. She began to slow down and the barrage of arrows decreased, soon spinning slowly upside down with her legs separated. She fell, landed skillfully after correcting her position, and pulled back another red ki arrow. She aimed it upwards above her head, fazed red ki beads out from her body and into the projectile. The arrow grew brighter and brighter until its radiating color shined on the ground strongly.


I need more in order to perfect the power, I need more so I can get used to its strength! She stated in her mind with courage and tried pulling out more beads, but the more she fazed them out, the more exhausted she felt. She was already panting, heavy breathing kept escaping her masked lips as she focused on her target. Now! she shouted in her head then released it. Large red rings expanded in the arrow's trail, it soared blindingly in its direction and soon faded after going too deep into the white void. Soon, a gigantic red sphere of destruction appeared and had a ring around it like some supernova. Behind her mask, she smiled happily and her turquoise marbles wavered in delight. Soon...I'll master it and when I do, it may just be my most powerful technique yet.~ She cooed mentally and giggled, a cute blush painted her cheeks at the idea of mastering a new technique. I'm so excited!~ Adding to her thoughts, she lowered her bow and kept her gaze at the red giant in the sky, watching its radiance glow brightly on the surface below.


She inhaled then exhaled, taking slow breathers before continuing her training. The girl decided to take it easy now since she used up a lot of her ki for channeling that attack.


~~~Elsewhere~~~


After some time, Goku had returned from training and visited his home. He was sitting down at the table where food was littered and was accompanied by his own wife who ate with a pair of chopsticks. Goku picked up his spoon and took a bite of his food, having his eyes shut while enjoying its flavor. He put his spoon down and happily exclaimed with a big smile. "I'm glad we get to spend time together Chichi, especially since I'm going back to King Kai's world to train!" With Goku's words, Chichi had a hard time swallowing her food but gave a pouting face to her husband afterward.


"You're joking, right...? That, Eglantina woman isn't coming back anytime soon!" she exclaimed angrily at him with a none-too-happy feature, eyes darted towards him whilst holding her chopsticks up close to her mouth.


"Course not, I mean I'm not sure about her...but... I'm all healed up from battle so why would I wait?" he asked with a slightly nervous smile, before pumping a fist to the side of his torso. The determination was clear in his features when he narrowed his eyes and a big smile appeared. "I've gotta train harder than ever now, so I'm as strong as Lord Beerus, can fight off that pink-haired woman, and be ready for the next time we fight!" he stated happily, making Chichi mentally scoff.


"After you came back home, I should have known that's why you were wearing that..." she irritably stated and lifted her head a bit, not once changing her angry features. "You can't go!" she shouted, she did NOT like the idea of her husband training again... Even though she approved of the idea before, her mind completely changed...


Goku's features grew surprised by her words, soon standing up from his seat with his hands planted on the table. "That's not fair, Chichi! You said it was fine after I told you about her, not to mention before Beerus showed up!" he exclaimed in disbelief, then leaned his head in closer to her, from over the table. He thought about the money that he got for the family, then thought that it might help her remember. If he couldn't train to fend off Eglantina, then he would train to get stronger to go against Beerus. "You know when I got us that one hundred million Zenny!" he yelled, hoping she'd understand by that reminder and let him go.


All she did was blink with her mouth agape, then smiled up at him. "But I thought I told you, we spent that already.~" With that, an awkward silence filled the room and a goofy ding echoed through the atmosphere. Soon Goku fell backward on his head comically, mentally face-palming all the while and groaning out loud. "Uuhh..." That was all Chichi said in response and confusion was written on her face.


He got up and groaned then looked over at his wife, he wasn't very pleased... "Seriously...!?" Yelling once more, his eyes were widened from shock.


"Basically, and we're saving the rest!" she yelled, standing from the table in anger. She paced up to the man and continued. "And besides, Gohan and Videl are about to have a baby!" she grasped his shoulder and shook her head, with one hand on her hip "And we can't have our grandchild look up to a grampa who does nothing but fight crazy Aliens!" Pointing a finger, she got up close to his face and gazed deeply into his eyes. "From now on you'll work for a living like everyone else and be a responsible role model for our family and that's final!" she shouted, whilst walking away, making a stunned Goku stand there near the table.


"But Chichi...c'mon... I have to train..." he pleaded, hoping that she'd finally let him go.


"You've trained enough and fought enough, you're not a young man anymore..." she said with slight mourn, before grabbing a tall rectangular wrapped container and holding it up for him to see. "Just do it, this should last you till dinner...!" she stated, soon walking forward towards her husband and handing the container to him. "Here..." Adding to her words and the rectangular object dropped into his hands. He nearly dropped it but managed to hold it anyway. She glared at the man, seeing him blink in question and peek around the corner of the large box.


~~~Elsewhere~~~

(Decided to skip a few scenes with Videl and Gohan, because...well...that's a lot of typing honestly XD!)


In a deserted wasteland where Vegeta and Akasma once trained, the very Veggie-man stood on top of a tall earthen structure. Mental thoughts roamed his head as the wind brushed his spiky locks, clearly thinking about how Goku managed to get his God form and hating the fact that he didn't. His teeth gritted into view with his eyes narrowing, he vowed that he would surpass the man and would see to it until he does. Soon he saw a faint pink appearance on a nearby tall structure similar to the one he stood on, he gasped at the sight. He couldn't believe that the very wanted criminal who was CAPTURED by Whis and Vados, was back again... How did she come back?! I thought for sure she was taken into custody and was sent to be judged by higher-ups! he exclaimed in his head, wondering how she got there without him being able to sense her power level.


He saw the pinky in her pink get-up, hood over her head, and a masked mouth. She was sitting on the edge with her legs dangling off the side, swinging them, and had her hands in her lap. She appeared to be staring up at the sky, it was obvious that she was caught up in her own thoughts. If I can't sense her power level, it's obvious she's hiding it! Her guard is up too I can tell, if it wasn't then she wouldn't be hiding her ki... No matter, the Prince of all Saiyans will never cower to any warrior! Not mattering if it's a woman or not! Before he could burst out at full speed and attack her, he saw her stand. He froze on the spot and prepared himself, he thought she was going to attack him.


She stepped off the edge as if she was about to cross some sort of street, fell right off the cliff, and turned her back to the ground. She giggled, thinking about when she gets to kill her prey without her escaping her grasp. The fall was long, so she had time to think to herself. Akasma's presence was here not long ago, I would say a few days maybe...before I came here.~ Hmm...perhaps exercising my skills for a bit wouldn't hurt, wouldn't want to get all rusty on my target now would I?~ mentally stating, with a few giggles escaping her lips and shutting her crazy red irises.


She spun halfway in place, swatting her arms out as if skydiving. Soon she put her hands out before her and looked like she was diving into a body of water. She saw a branch sticking out the side of the structure, so she grabbed it and swung herself over to the nearest top of another tall surface. She landed on the other surface, bolted, and jumped off, doing a series of flips and unique turns to get to each other platform.


She would glide with her legs and arms out behind her then grab a stray, almost dead vine that was hooked to the side of another surface and swing herself; letting go of it once the vine reached its limit. Back flipping forward then grabbing onto the next vine, her skills looked so graceful and professional. Once she landed on the ground, she stood to her full height and looked around. If her mask was off, one could see her smiling from the murderous thoughts in her mind.


She took both of her crossbow guns out from behind her back, loaded them with metal bolts, and aimed at a fly that was soaring towards her at high speed. She shot it, piercing it through and causing it to fall instantly. "Sorry Mr. bug, you cannot live today! Hahahahaha!~" she laughed maniacally, closed her gaze, and blushed whilst doing a spinning motion. "Laaaaa-LA-laaaaaaa-la-.... Laaaaa-LA-laaaaaa-LAA!" she began to sing as she started to skip happily over to a big dinosaur-looking beast. After a minute of skipping merrily towards it, she giggled and aimed the loaded gun at its eye. She stopped and lowered it, thinking it was a waste to kill it since it was too big of a target.


I need something smaller...~ her monologue echoed then looked around and spotted an odd creature on four legs. It seemed to run pretty fast, so she smiled behind her mask and skipped over to it. "Come and play with me, little creature! I want to play!~" she happily exclaimed with her eyes closed and both guns in her hand. "Let's play tag!~" her voice sounded like that of a child then soon opened her eyes and her aura got dark... "You're it..." Going from a childish, high-pitched voice to an intimidating, deeper one. Her red pupils shrunk from excitement and shade covered the light silver skin on her face, making her look creepy...
