"Saiyans Don't Back Down"
Post-Namek | Age 762 | Outside Time Chamber: 2 Days Before Trunks' Arrival
Earth – Eastern Mountains, Late Afternoon
The wind swirls as tension begins to fade.
Krillin, Tien, Yamcha, and Gohan stare at you with caution. Piccolo, arms crossed, watches you with calculating silence.
Then—
BOOM!
A burst of sharp energy explodes from the sky.
A white trail cuts across the clouds.
He lands hard.
Prince Vegeta.
Wearing a battle-damaged Frieza Force bodysuit. Arms folded. Aura simmering.
He walks forward, his boots crunching stone, eyes locked on yours.
Vegeta (smirking):
"Another low-class Saiyan survivor? Or are you one of Frieza's leftovers trying to play soldier?"
Cumber (calm, deep):
"Neither. I walk a different path than yours, Prince."
SYSTEM SCAN ENGAGED...
Battle Power: 2,7million
Status: No known transformations
Body: Hardened. High Zenkai Adaptation. Elevated base strength through obsession.
You blink. Impressive.
He's stronger than you in base.
You don't fear that. You respect it.
Cumber (thinking):
He doesn't even need a transformation to close the gap. No wonder he survives everything.
Vegeta (cracking his knuckles):
"You just wiped the floor with Namek's finest and that brat.
Why don't you show me what you've really got?"
Cumber (shaking your head):
"Not here. You want to fight me… we do it properly."
You step forward.
Cumber (low):
"The Hyperbolic Time Chamber. One-on-one. Two years inside. Two days out here."
Vegeta (raising an eyebrow):
"Hah! You think you'll survive two years with me, boy?"
Cumber:
"I'm not going to survive. I'm going to evolve."
Silence.
Piccolo's eyes narrow. Gohan shivers slightly. Krillin blinks.
Tien (to Yamcha):
"Did he just… invite Vegeta into hell?"
Vegeta's smirk widens, but there's a twitch in his brow. He sees something in you.
That calm. That self-awareness. That weight behind your words.
It's not arrogance.
It's experience.
Vegeta (low):
"You've got guts. Fine. Two years.
But when we step out of that chamber—"
"—I will break you."
Cumber (calmly):
"Try."
System Update: Time Chamber Entry Confirmed
Cumber: Base Power – 500thousand techniques mastered: Ikari Demon form (×10-100), Jiren-style Combat
Vegeta: Base Power – 2,700,000, no transformations yet, but Zenkai-adapted elite with violent instinct
Time Chamber Conditions: 1 day = 1 year; no escape except door
Goal: Mutual evolution, one-on-one growth. Pressure testing.
The room in endless white I look then I turn to vegeta.
Vegeta
Why don't we start so, I can show the power of the Prince.
I watch him scream and raise his battle power to 3million. White ki and wind with the force hard and him covered in light .
Cumber
Well I match you in kind.
With a smirk my feel my heart beat slow down and an aura so primal, I hear the screams of the Oozaru, then my hair lifts up
..The tips of it turn a mix of red-green, my eyeballs pure white and my pupils gone, with only my irises flashing green erratically like I'm on the edge of losing control ,to madness and rage ,my aure the ki violent dark red with a black ....outline around my body .
Battle power rising
700thousand ...1million..1,5million
Cumber
This is all the power I need.
I grin and focus
Vegeta
Your not a super sayain ....but Your holding back on me I can feel it your power ,it's like the great ape but how ...your not big how can MORE sayains surpass me I'm the Prince!
Shockwave punch: A dense pressure in a fist shape shoots out.
Cumber
I punch forward and the air whistles and it hits vegeta he is ,launched back far...i follow him at high speed .
A trail of red and black chasing after a ,white light figure trying to stabilize itself.
Vegeta
Ugh... How did he get the upper hand it won't happen again.
Ki blast: shoot like bullets
They shot like bullets to me as I fly forward
Aura control:the dark red ki aura becomes more dense and shrinks to outline the body only.
Cumber
With a boost to my speed and agility I now dodge most the ki blasts, they get redirected with my dense aura barrier.
I appear out the dust cloud .
Infinity rush light: at high burst speed furry.
Cumber
With hundreds of punches a second , the impact on vegeta body over and over again,then I kick him.
Vegeta
He grabs my leg and reverse my momentum,then kicks me in the back.
Purple ki surrounding his out stretched back hands.
Galick Gun: A gathered beam of ki
Vegeta
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh..take that your lunatic.
He lunches it onto my backas I feel it push me into the ground.
Cumber
Ahhhhhh...he really is the Prince, but I won'tlet him go that easy.
The door to the time chamber opens, it'sbeen two days in the out side world.
I walk out clothes worn out and damaged and a pressure leaves my body subconsciously .
Piccolo
Woah that pressure and his ki i can't even feel HOW dense it is .
Vegeta stepping behide has a new glow and the power coming from him, is much higher then before.
Gohan
Woah even vegeta is much stronger then before .
With both my hair and vegeta hair now longer and now I'm 17 years old .
Piccolo (to himself):
"He's not just strong. He's methodical. This guy's… dangerous."
Gohan:
"He looked so calm standing in front of Vegeta."
Krillin:
" crazy... How is he's hiding so much power I can sense it's suffocating ."
Lyra (arms folded, soft smile):
"He's not hiding. He has reached a new level and I won't be left behind."
Paths of Flame
Time: Age 764 | Weeks Before Trunks' Arrival
Kami's Lookout – Midday Sunlight
The light pours across the white marble of the sky-temple as Piccolo and Gohan spar fiercely below.
Gohan now moves sharper — more confident — and Piccolo pushes him to his limits.
Standing at the edge of the platform, arms folded, you and Vegeta watch in silence.
Your cloak flows in the wind — a robe of white and gray.
The only armor you now wear is your mask, still hiding your mouth, your breath, your origin.
Vegeta (side-eye):
"That girl… she's not human. But she fights with instinct."
You nod.
Cumber:
"Her name is Lyra. She's a Cerealian.
One of the few left after Frieza used the Saiyans to wipe her people out."
Vegeta (jaw tightens):
"Tch… another world the Saiyans destoyed they were weak."
Cumber (calmly):
"She doesn't blame us. She sees warriors — not ghosts. But I blame our weakness.
And her left eye? It's supposed to be red. Hers is blue. Unique.
It lets her see ki like a sniper — track pressure points, flow lines.
A single strike from her in the right place… even I'd be dropped back to base."
Vegeta watches Lyra dodge Piccolo's sweep and strike his wrist with two fingers — making the green Namekian recoil.
Vegeta:
"She could be… dangerous."
Cumber (softly):
"She's worthy."
Moments Later – Bulma Arrives
A blue hovercraft zips toward the temple.
Bulma, radiant and curious, steps out with a tablet in hand.
Bulma:
"So you're the mystery Saiyan with the cool armor and glowing eyes?"
Cumber (nodding):
"Cumber. And you are…?"
Bulma:
"Bulma Briefs. Inventor, genius, and the only reason Vegeta eats decent food."
Vegeta grumbles and turns away.
You smirk beneath your mask.
Bulma (grinning):
"We're having dinner back at Capsule Corp. You and your friend are coming."
Capsule Corp – That Evening
Around the table: Bulma, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, Krillin, Yamcha, Lyra, and You.
You eat quietly, watching them all joke, bicker, laugh.
Krillin (to you):
"You're… not what I expected, man. We thought you were gonna blow up the Earth or something."
Cumber "in a serous tone ":
"So did I."
Lyra (laughs softly):
"He changes his mind when he respects you.but we did not intend to harm the earth "
Bulma:
"Well, lucky us. We need more quiet muscle around here. Goku's still off in space."
Your eyes flash.
Cumber (thinking):
Kakarot. The Saiyan who changed everything. Soon we shall meet.
The Next Day – Kami's Lookout
You float before Kami and Mr. Popo, eyes serious.
Cumber:
"I want to stay here. The silence. The gravity. The space. It's perfect for my training."
Kami (smiling faintly):
"You're welcome here, warrior. As long as you bring no darkness with you."
Cumber ():
"Only strength ."
CUMBER'S NEW TRAINING REGIMEN
You create your own chamber — just outside Earth's atmosphere.
A floating, rotating gravity shell, reinforced with your ki.
Inside, you train daily under:
×100 to ×200 gravity
Simulated solar heat, mimicked through condensed fire-infused ki
Aura density training — turning your aura into a burning field
My ki burning like flame slowly and the ,pressure has increased from the heat.
Cumber (mid-training):
"Jiren's ki was like a star… I must feel that pressure in my bones."
Your body begins to heat up with each blow you throw — leaving trails of burning aura.
Overheat punch: condensed heat red ki on my fists.
with the combined damage of ki blasts but now in each fist.
Cumber
This power...is devastating.
You forge your fists in living plasma.
NEW SKILL ACQUIRED: Flareburst Ki
All melee attacks now burn at the molecular level; contact with your aura causes light ignition on impact zones — particularly effective against regenerators and energy shields.
TIME SKIP: One Month Later…
The sky darkens.
Thunder rolls.
A bolt of light streaks down from the clouds — tearing the Earth sky.
The energy that follows… is unlike anything before.
You step out of the temple with Lyra beside you.
Vegeta walks past you, arms crossed.
Vegeta (quietly):
"You'll want to see this."
Outside West City — Ruined Highway
A purple-haired warrior stands in the dust.
His jacket bears the Capsule Corp logo.
In front of him lies the slaughtered corpse of Mecha Frieza — bisected.
You sense it.
SYSTEM SCAN:
Unknown Warrior – Battle Power: stable (rises above 5 million during burst)
DNA: Saiyan / Human Hybrid
Weapon: Ki Blade Construct
Timeline: Discrepancy detected
Cumber (thinking):
So... the winds of time have shifted.
You step forward, cape flowing. Lyra walks beside you.
The young man turns.
You meet his eyes.
Trunks.
Trunks (startled):
"You're… not in the files. Who are you?"
Cumber (deep voice):
"Someone who waited too long.
Someone who's ready now."
"To Break Limits: The Heart of Absolute Strength"
Time: Age 764 | The Day Goku Returns from Yardrat
West City – A Wide Plain Near Capsule Corp
The sun glistens on the green earth. The air tingles with energy.
You, Vegeta, Trunks, and Lyra stand facing one another — battle-scarred, but exhilarated.
A moment ago, father and son tested each other.
Cumber (arms folded):
"You're strong, both of you. But I want to evolve. Not later. Now."
You lift your head and gaze beyond the clouds.
Cumber:
"When Kakarot arrives… I want to fight all four of you. At once."
Vegeta
Some nerve after 2 years, I still want to wipe that grin off your face.
The Arrival
A capsule ship streaks down from orbit. It lands gently, the hatch opening.
Son Goku steps out, wearing Yardratian garb.
He looks peaceful… until Lyra appears in a blur behind him, striking his spine with a kick.
Goku (yelping as he's launched forward):
"W-Woah—HEY?!"
As he tumbles, you appear in front of him and fire a quick ki blast.
Goku flips in the air, dodging with surprising ease, then lands in a crouch, smiling.
Goku (grinning):
"That's one way to say hello."
Cumber (serious):
"You'll be fighting with them. Right now."
Vegeta
Yeah lets beat up that lunatic he pisses me off.
Goku (stretching):
"All four of us? You sure?"
Future Trunks
That's what he wants.
I just simply nod.
Cumber (coldly):
"I didn't train to watch."
The Combatants
Lyra: 150 million BP, using sniper strikes & weak point assaults
Goku: 250 million BP, refined Yardrat movement & Instant Transmissionsuper sayain
Trunks: 150 million BP, Super Saiyan Sword Style
Vegeta: 500 million BP, Grade 1 Super Saiyan
They all power up, surrounding you. The wind howls under the crushing pressure.
My eyes close.
hair lifts.
The ends flicker red-green , with sharp flames forming around my body.
body radiates burning ki. It feels like a star taking form. In a dark red glow much more intense and the heat pressure.
SYSTEM LOG:
Activating Ikari Demon State – Martial Flow Phase
Battle Power: 300,000,000
Technique Comprehension: x2 efficiency
Combat Instinct: Predictive Optimization engaged
Aura Signature: Solar Density Type – Burn Effect: Active
They all feel it.
Vegeta (gritting his teeth):
"That pressure… it's heavier than a Super Saiyan's ,even after all this time that bastered."
Goku (serious):
"You're radiating power like… nothing I have felt before ."
The Battle Begins
You vanish from sight.
Shockwave punch:dense pressure coils around my fist.
Infinity rush light: high speed burst combos.
A fist-shaped shockwave explodes across the field — impacting all four warriors at once with a chain of phantom punches.
Trunks is launched back.
Vegeta tanks the blast, sliding.
Goku blocks with one hand — his arm burning from the contact.
Lyra slips under the blast but coughs — the heat ignites the air.
You reappear in the middle of them and immediately shift stances — flowing from counter to strike to parry.
Aura Control: my ki gets denser around the outline of my body .
Every movement evolves mid-fight — you adjust your entire body weight, breathing, eye focus, even elbow alignment between hits.
Cumber (in thought):
Adjust the weight to the left — Lyra's lining up a strike—
SNAP! — You twist midair, narrowly dodging Lyra's sniper ki-bolt aimed at your right rib.
You land — only for Trunks to swing his sword down. You catch the blade between your palms.
It burns — but you redirect it just enough to slap his neck with ki, forcing him back.
Goku appears above — Instant Transmission punch!
Cumber (growling):
"Too slow."
I drop and spin, sweeping Goku's legs and dragging his momentum into a parry that sends him into Vegeta's charging blow.
The two collide — stunned — and you explode forward.
The Flow Shifts – They're Learning
I begin to struggle.
Your body starts to feel the toll of tracking four warriors.
Lyra tags me with a precision strike to my shoulder joint — it flares with pain, weakening your blocking form.
Goku begins teleporting with less pattern — unpredictable flow.
Vegeta is now adapting to my counter-rhythm.
Trunks begins swinging his blade in arcs to disrupt my flow.
Cumber (bloodied):
"Good… this is what I need."
BREAKTHROUGH — Martial Flow: Harmonization
My mind shifts — like water to steam.
You stop resisting the flow. I ride it. Redirect it. Predict it.
Your techniques become lighter, smoother. Transitions from offense to defense require no thought. I act faster, more efficiently.
Your energy output drops by 10% but efficiency increases by 40%.
The Final Sequence
Lyra
drops out first — overwhelmed by your rapid momentum change
Trunks
burns out next — his blade bounces off my improved counters
Goku
goes after an Instant Kamehameha
but i dive inside it
Pressure Barrier:reactive black aura of ki shield.
A small defense shield closely around my body , with high pressure like gravity.
hit my figure directly
Then I fly through it.
Flareburst ki:the red ki becomes like fire .
Cumber
I kick goku in the chest.
Only Vegeta remains — breathing hard, fire in his eyes
Vegeta:
"You damn bastard… always one step ahead."
Vegeta panting and gasping for air.
Cumber (grinning):
"Because I fall harder. And get up sharper , strength is my path now."
I trade one final volley — fists colliding with the sound of thunder.
Vegeta
swings wide
i let it hit my ribs — and step through it to strike his gut.
He drops to one knee… then base form.
So do you.
My body shudders.
I smile… and collapse, unconscious — body flickering back to base.
Victory by Edge
Goku (catching his breath):
"He pushed all of us. And still… stood above."
Vegeta (looking down at you):
"He doesn't fight like a Saiyan…
That lunatic he surpassed kakarot and me."
Lyra (sitting up):
"He's not a fighter. He's… a martialist."
SYSTEM UPDATE: Martial Growth Achieved
Unlocked
Combat Transitions reduced by 50% strain
Aura now has Active Burn Buff against higher-level enemies
Overall Comprehension Rate of Jiren Techniques: 8%
Closing Scene
Night falls.
I rest at Kami's Lookout, your cloak pulled over your form, Lyra by my side.
My body aches. My lungs are raw.
But i resolve burns brighter than ever.
Cumber (thinking):
I'm not just trying to catch up anymore.
I'm carving my own path. One step at a time.
I will become… the strongest!
Flash back end
In the canyon with rock around the terrain.
King Cold
Ho...ho.. Not bad
A smaller figure in front of him looks around.
Mecha Frieza
Heh... For an Earthling...
As we all arrived to see frieza ,trunks flys ahead and speaks out.
Future Trunks
Now it's your turn.
I will bring you down in seconds.
I know it.
We all watch as frieza and trunks face of but I notice vegeta and the rage building up.
Future Trunks
You'd better bring everything you've got at me.
I'm no pushover like Goku.
And with that frieza shows interest.
Mecha Frieza
Goku...? That's.....that Super sayain the name of that monkey.
So..you're one of his allies are you.
Future Trunks
You said you'd make the Super sayain suffer by killing all the Earthlings.
But a scream is heard then a golden light then a glow.
Ssj1 Vegeta rushes at mecha frieza .
Vegeta
You Basterd I will show the power of the legendary Super Vegeta!!!!
Mecha Frieza,King Cold
What!!!not
With an energy blast in purple moves fast in frieza , Cold direction.
Galick Gun
Vegeta
Ahhh go to hell!!!
A dust cloud rises as it clears.
Two figures broken an bleeding. With body parts missing.
I move my hand
Power impact: no in an orb slowly compresses smaller being denser and more powerful.
Cumber
I make it the size of my palm, then through it at the creator .
All the remaining parts are burned to dust as it exploded.
Goku
Woah vegeta just went there all out and killed them.
Krillin
I get why he went in there but that...could have ended bad.
Piccolo
And cumber destoyer the remains.

"The Future Cries Blood"
Time: Age 764 | Days After the Battle
Kami's Lookout — Nightfall
The moon hangs high.
I awaken slowly, every part of my body feeling heavy from the battle. Lyra sits beside me, gently dabbing a cloth across a cut on my jaw.
Lyra (quietly)
"You really pushed too far again…"
I smile faintly beneath my mask.
Cumber (calmly)
"I had to. Each blow forged something new in me."
Across the lookout, Trunks stands with Vegeta, Gohan, and Goku — speaking in hushed tones.
I rise to my feet and walk over.
The Warning
The air around Trunks feels... tense. His expression is worn. Eyes older than his face.
Trunks
"Three years from now… two Artificial Humans will appear. Androids. They will wipe out everything."
He breathes slowly, trying to contain emotion.
Trunks: "In my timeline, you're all dead. Only me and Gohan survived. My mother… Bulma… she built me a time machine to come back and warn you."
I scan him again.
SYSTEM SCAN:
Emotional Trauma Level: 92%
Battle History: 46 battles / 23 survival escapes / 12 fatal encounters

Cumber (coldly): "Tell me. Everything. Leave nothing out."
Trunks' Story (Flashback Style)
Trunks (narration):
"It started after Goku defeated Frieza. He came back to Earth sick… a heart virus. He died in bed before anyone knew what was happening."
I see flashes — Goku coughing blood, Chi-Chi screaming, Gohan in tears.
"Then… they came. Androids 17 and 18. They were merciless. Not machines — monsters."
Capsule Corp in flames. Yamcha gutted. Piccolo pierced through the chest. Krillin turned to dust. Gohan screaming.
Trunks (voice trembling):
"They destroyed everything — cities, towns, resistance groups. They killed for fun."
"Vegeta fought. He died. So did Tien. Only Gohan survived, training me. He lost an arm in battle… and eventually, his life."
A vision of Gohan's body in the rain. Trunks kneeling beside him, sword broken.
"I couldn't stop them. Not until I came here."
Everyone Reacts
Gohan holds his chest, stunned.
Goku looks… unusually quiet.
Vegeta turns his back, fists clenched — jaw tight.
I step forward.
Cumber (quietly): "What are their power levels?"
Trunks: "Unmeasurable. They don't have traditional ki… You can't sense them. That's what made them so deadly."
Cumber (thinking):Machines with no ki flow. Impossible to track. I'll need to adapt Lyra's precision to internal sensors...
Cumber (aloud): "Three years is enough. I will be ready."

That Evening — Capsule Corp Roof
I sit under the stars with Lyra.
Lyra: "Machines that can't be sensed. That kill for pleasure. You're not going to hesitate, are you?"
Cumber (softly): "No. I don't just want to fight anymore. I want to end threats. Burn them out. Like a star… nothing left behind but ash."
Lyra: "Then let's start tomorrow. Together."
She leans against my side.
For the first time… the future has weight.
