"Trunks, get back!" Goku shouted, frowning as the boy ignored him.

"Trunks..." Tapion hissed, gritting his teeth as he tried to hold back the monster inside of him. "There isn't much time left... Quick, strike my heart..." He pleaded, pushing the handle of his weapon towards the boy.

"T-Tapion..." Trunks mumbled, unable to think about doing such a thing to his friend. "I... I can't!"

"I can't hold him much longer... Do it now! Before the monster breaks free again!" He shouted, gritting his teeth as he used all his strength to contain the ancient evil. Trunks took a step back, shaking his head as tears began to form in his eyes. 

"Y-You don't know what you're saying-"

"Do you want to see everyone you care about die?!" Tapion shouted harshly, grabbing the sides of his head as Hirudegarn tried to escape. "Trunks..." The fighter urged, sending the boy in front of him a meaningful look. "I know it's not fair to ask you, but there's no other way....... I don't want to destroy you! I know death seems cruel but I welcome this blade..." He finished, resigned to accept his fate.

"There must be something else we can do!" Yuuki said angrily, clenching her fists at her side as she raced to come up with a plan. Just as she was trying to think, a dark portal began to open up as the destructive energy from Hirudegarn beginning to emerge once more...

"NO! Tapion!" Trunks shouted as the monster began to come forth.

The evil aura flowed out of the warrior, materializing in reality as Yuuki growled, watching the beast grin before resuming his destruction.

"What?! He's transformed!" Gohan shouted, clenching his fists before powering up. "Haaaaaa... HAA!" He yelled as a mystical silver aura surrounded him. Goku followed his lead, transforming as well before both fighters took on the upgraded Hirudegarn.

Yuuki watched anxiously as the two fighters tried their best, but the battle was still so one sided... Getting an idea, she dashed forward, grabbing the sword out of the still exhausted Tapion's hands before he could react.

"What are you doing?!" The red haired fighter shouted, wondering why she was hesitating to kill him when they could end this all right now...

Goku sensed the energy around the woman being gathered as he tried his best to distract the creature and buy some time. Gohan did his best as well, both Saiyans flying around the massive creature and dodging vicious attacks along the way.

Yuuki took a deep breath, closing her eyes as she concentrated, channeling energy into the weapon in her hands while praying it could hold the power to save you all. Somehow, the woman knew it to be true as a mysterious aura began to take over the blade. She continued to push herself, searching for every ounce of ki she could find... A massive blast of energy surprised everyone as the woman finally opened her eyes, the sword in her grip glowing brightly as she caught her breath.

"I'm not letting that monster destroy anything else..." Yuuki said defiantly, feeling herself becoming a bit lightheaded as she took a shaky step forward. I might have gotten a little carried away... She thought as her vision became more blurry...

Before she could hit the ground Tapion caught her, noticing that she was still holding the now enchanted sword with the last of her strength.

"Every bit of power I could gather..." Yuuki mumbled, passing out from exhaustion as Tapion frowned. He grabbed his sword from her hands, feeling the surge of power from the weapon flow through his body.

"Amazing....... How..."

He didn't have time to wonder he realized, turning to lay the intriguing woman down before glancing back at Hirudegarn angrily.

"This... This is for Minotia and my people..." Tapion growled, an intensely powerful aura beginning to surround him as Hirudegarn glared his way. "This is for everything you've destroyed!" He shouted, launching himself towards the beast as he aimed for his stomach.

"RAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Hirudegarn howled, cut in two once more as Tapion didn't stop there. 

Quicker than the eye could follow, he continued slashing until only large chunks of the monster began to fall towards the ground.

Goku, Gohan and Trunks powered up their respective attacks, all of them shouting in unison as they aimed for the remaining pieces. In a flash of light the rest of Hirudegarn was vaporized, leaving nothing behind as Tapion landed, the mystical energy of the sword still resonating as he was left speechless.

It's over... It's finally over... He realized, letting out a relieved sigh as he looked around to thank the other mysterious fighter.

Trunks was already at Yuuki's side, shaking her slightly as Goku pulled something out of his pocket.

"Here... She might need this." The Saiyan grinned, handing his rival's son a senzu bean for the young woman. "She used up a lot of energy charging that sword!" Goku went on, sounding impressed as he thought about the possibility of having someone new to spar with.

Trunks nodded, popping the bean in her mouth as Tapion watched curiously. A few seconds later the girl began to stir, waking up with a cute yawn as she started to come to. Yuuki looked around slowly, blinking a few times before frowning as everything came rushing back to her. That monster. The battle... Her temple. 

What am I going to do now?
