Chapter 8 - 8.) Aftermath and Discussions

AN: another one

Broly

I remember seeing Vegeta for the first time. All the memories I'd had of Vampa came flooding back.

The hardship. Isolation. Slave Collar put on by my own father. I felt it begin to rise. The beast in me. And I couldn't do anything to stop it once he confirmed what my memories of my last life already showed me.

I open my eyes to see I'm in my mind scape looking at my mentor. "Yamoshi," I begin, "I'm sorry." I say cutting eye contact as I felt like a failure.

I couldn't keep my cool for more than a few seconds before I lost my mind. Yamoshi smiled at me gently, "it's okay Broly. You must learn Afterall. But there is something to celebrate about this moment as well."

I was confused. How was there anything worth celebrating? My first impression on the Z fighters is tainted by the beast I know they saw. I get a headache trying to explain everything to them.

My sensei seems to read my thoughts and speaks, "now you know what it feels like to enter the true form of a saiyan. The green hair and Ki signature is the telltale sign that a saiyan is pushing their Ki to the limit.

The good thing comes with your body now knowing the path to such power. The more you train with it the more of the power you'll be able to access. Think of it like Goku and his super saiyan 1 through 3. While not an apples to apples comparison it does provide the needed context." He said to me and I began to understand what he meant.

I speak seeking to qualify my theory, So Goku's body can't handle ssj3 for long but his mind can, while my body can handle the legendary transformation but my mind can't?"

Yamoshi nods at me. "Okay, I guess it's not all bad then. Thanks sensei. You always put me back straight when I deviate."

He smiles at me. "That is why I am here Broly."

I decide to spend however long I have In here to just enjoy being in this place where everything is okay. The trouble of the world can wait.

Goku

After defusing with Vegeta I immediately took a senzu bean and took Broly to the sacred world of the kais.

I appear and see the ones I'm looking for. Elder kai and shin Kai. As soon as I arrive they protest. "Oh no goku. No way." Elder kai says.

"Please elder kai? If there's anyone who can help broly control himself it's you. You saw his power. Imagine if he could wield it instead of it being the one wielding him."

I see he's still hesitant. "Look, I have a lot of explaining to do to Vegeta. Well, more like to everyone. I'll be back after I go and do that. Please. give me until then to come up with something else." At his nod I sag in relief. "Thank you." I say and use instant transmission to go back home and begin explaining what exactly Broly's story is.

Broly

I feel like I've moved. I feel three unfamiliar presences. My eyes confirm what my senses tell me a moment later as I open my eyes and see the landscape around me. Beautiful grass and a calming two tone purple sky. In front of me stood two unfamiliar beings.

I try to get up but my body feels like what I imagine getting hit with a train feels like. My arms and legs try to respond to my brains commands but they don't have the strength to do so.

That's when I take in the appearance of the one standing in front of me. An elderly looking man with a white mohawk for hair, that same purplish tone of skin that matches the sky, and finally I see two little earrings hanging from his ears.

"Who are you? Where am I?" I say finally gaining a bit of mobility. My senses can't exactly feel this beings ki. Which is odd. I didn't know you could make it undetectable.

He answers my second question first. "This is the sacred world of the Kai's. Few mortals have ever laid eyes let alone foot on this place. I expect you to treat it accordingly." He said passionately. "And as for your first question I am elder kai."

I was a little bewildered, I didn't know what that meant. "Forgive my ignorance, but what is that supposed to mean?" I see him run a hand over his face.

"Well, I guess I can tell you."

What follows is a few hours of explanation. How the Kai's are creation deity's that fulfill a very important role for the entire universe.

I also ask another question. "Why can't I feel your Ki? Isn't it impossible to completely suppress it?" The old Kai chuckles.

"Tell me what you feel when you try to sense me." He says. I close my eyes and activate the Ikari to enhance my own perception.

"I feel a pressure." I say to him. He nods up and down.

"That's the result of my ki. It operates on a different frequency than the Ki of mortals. It's far denser that you can comprehend. Which is why you only feel pressure." He explained to me.

I nod along. I've learned that goku took me here in order to explain the situation and allow me some time to decompress. I truly just want to go somewhere I don't have to worry about people. And survive decently comfortable.

I decided to ignore the Kai giving me a suspicious look and got into a meditation pose. I needed to analyze my thoughts and try to recall the fight with Vegeta. I remember the power. It's always been there, lurking, waiting. Like a beast finally seeing it's opportunity to burst out of its cage.

From what I remember it did just that. I hope I didn't kill anyone. That's not me. Never will be. I will fight because that's what a saiyan does, not to mention I'm not bad at it.

I like the evolution. From how naive I was of this world to how far I've come in but a year and a half.

I got the basic super saiyan down. But now that the legendary has been let out of its cage, can I even retain that form?

All these questions are making my head hurt. I decided to clear my mind. Focus on nothing but breathing in and out and slowly fall into a deep state of meditation, my Ki beginning to bubble out but I compress it. Control it.

I am the user of my ki. Not the other way around. Slowly but surely I feel the energy that'd begin to leak out slowly draw itself back in. It was incredibly difficult. But I did it.

For less than a second though, I felt something. Something else. Power I'd never felt before. Unlike the swirling rage that was the legendary saiyan, this was a calm serenity that seemed like a body of water as still as glass.

I don't know what I just did, but I will never stop trying to find it again.

Elder Kai

Seeing the rampaging saiyan calmly sit in the lotus position and begin meditating was shocking enough. However, as the hours went on I watched completely fascinated by this broly. A being with so much raw power it should be impossible for a mortal to contain such violent Ki. Especially in the amounts young Broly has.

It literally couldn't help but to leak out of him while meditating. He was surrounded by a swirl of green energy that made even the sacred world of Kai's tremble. Eventually though, it began to receed. Not because broly was done meditating, no. He was far from surprising me today.

When all the green energy had leaked back into him something extraordinary happened. For a flash of a moment, the black spiky hair used to identify most pure blooded saiyans became a different color. A Divine red. For a moment, I could feel Broly. Not as the mortal he was. But as what he was going to be….

Goku

Back on planet Earth

When I get back I'm met with Vegeta still on the ground panting after our separation from the fusion. "K..Kakarot," he begins, "what the hell was that?"

I sigh. "Broly was born a few days after you with an extraordinarily high power level. King Vegeta, being scared of a potential threat to his or his sons rule…" here I paused and looked to Vegeta before continuing. "Decided to send Broly away to a world where he could never escape, ending his threat to the vegeta family."

I see vegeta shake his head. "Dammit," he said. I try to comfort him.

"It's okay Vegeta. We'll get through it."

He snaps at me. "You don't understand! What my father did is a disgrace to saiyan tradition. We thrive on fighting the strongest, yet he sent him away. Think what we could've been with him when freiza tried to destroy the planet? Would he have stopped him by becoming his true self?"

It was piccolo who interrupted him this time, "what do you mean true self?"

Vegeta scoffs. "I don't expect a weak civilization like you namekians to understand." He said mockingly.

"Vegeta!" I said in warning.

"Tch. Anyway, I mean the true super saiyan. That green haired abomination."

Before I can ask a question he answers it. "I'd never understood why the legends spoke of them destroying themselves after I gained the power of the super saiyan transformation. However, after seeing broly's version of it…" he trailed off.

"What are you saying?" Piccolo said.

"Gah. What I mean you Namekian fool is broly is similar to freiza, a mutant among his race. The reason the super saiyan of legend destroys themselves is because nobody can handle that ki. We saw what it did to broly." He said seriously.

Then it all began to click. The unconscious rage that took over. I'd never seen anything like it other than when gohan became a giant ape in my first fight with Vegeta.

"Then I'll go talk to him. Maybe I can help." I say preparing to use instant transmission to go back to the sacred world of Kai's.

"No need." A voice comes from behind us. Then appears Broly and shin Kai.

"Elder kai has assessed brolys ability to control himself is now adequate."

Everyone, including me gave skeptical looks at that. But broly shocked us by releasing his Ki in a wave, his hair briefly turning green before he reeled it back in.

"I think I just need to train in the chamber of time and spirit to gain enough control to transform at will." Broly says confidently.

I see Vegeta step forward, instantly everyone tenses. Even Vegeta himself. "Forgive me on behalf of my father. A saiyan who runs from a fight is no saiyan at all. I'll go into the chamber with you." He says not even waiting for broly to accept his apology. Broly follows along with an easy smile on his face.

"Classic Vegeta," I say.

"That's it?" Piccolo says?

"It was never about Vegeta or his father for broly. It was about the abuse of his own father that lead to his outburst. I believe everything is okay now." I say confidently.
