It is another peaceful day in Satan City, the hometown of the legendary Mr. Satan who defeated the mysterious alien monster Cell over 1000 years ago. While a long time has passed since then his efforts, or at the very least the efforts he took the credit of from someone else but no one who knows that are all dead at this point so there is no one left to say otherwise or provide evidence against it, is unforgotten. Coincidentally enough Satan City is one of only major cities that has been untouched by an invasion or disaster unlike West and Central City. People claim that Mr. Satan is protecting them all the way from the afterlife or even his great power has touched this land creating an invisible barrier that prevents any danger from coming to Satan City. Which is not too far from what Mr. Satan would've claimed back then and what they would end up believing in.
Suddenly all monitors began giving out a live broadcast from the energetic James Firecracker.
"James Firecracker here with an important news update. Apparently a massive swarm asteroids are heading hurtling towards Earth towards Satan City and will be in approximately three hours. Scientists are still trying to figure out how this happened but some are claiming that they are debris from a recently blown up planet which is not surprising since a lot of people this day and age seem to be able to do that *ahem*. Anyway all Satan City citizens are advised to evacuate immediately before the asteroids hit and turn the city into a huge crater. This is James Firecracker reporting." he said.
"Ha! Yeah right, they'll just burn up in the atmosphere and turn into harmless small rocks. That's what they do all the time right." one man said.
"Yeah besides I doubt Mr. Satan would let us get killed by meteors. I bet he would jump out of his grave like a zombie and punch them all into dust!" a younger man said.
But a small cat man was concerned of the news. He flew up into the air to the surprise of the two men to check for himself. He got up to at least the stratosphere so he would be able to breathe and from faraway he can see the incoming massive asteroids. Will is no scientist, but he is willing to bet that those asteroids won't just burn up to small rocks before they hit Satan City, no the attack will be devastating. And yet they are so sure that their lord and savor Mr. Satan would still protect them even while he has been dead for so long. But Will is alive and he is right here. He is gonna take it upon himself to destroy each and everyone of these asteroids before they can even get into Earth's atmosphere. He sweeps his arms into a motion and begins charging as much energy as he can through his arms "Kame...hame....HA!!!!" he yells out as he launches a massive blue wave of Ki at one asteroid causing it to break but into multiple smaller asteroids which means Will has more to deal with now. With a groan of annoyance he says the magic words in a somber tone "Cha la Head Cha la.".
Dragon Soul appeared looking around frantically
"What the hell?! What are we doing in the middle of space?!" Dragon Soul asked.
Will then pointed towards the incoming multiple asteroids and Dragon Soul then put up a fighting stance and says "Oh that's why. Well let's blow them to dust!"

Atreus was sitting around, enjoying a rare day off. No adventures out in the depths of space, wrestling dark gods and facing eldritch horrors. No endless training, muscles protesting under the never ending wear and tear that was the only constant companion of a martial artist. Just a breakfast beer, some of Atreus' famous, homemade chilaquiles, and some classic fights. And then, his phone buzzed. EMERGENCY ALERT. ASTEROIDS EN ROUTE TO SATAN CITY. ALL CITIZENS EVACUATE.Atreus looked down at his chilaquiles, a look of profound sadness settling over his features. They looked delicious, but he did not have the time to savor his handiwork. Eating like a Saiyan that had been starving for a week, Atreus consumed his meal in record time. The beer, he pounded, the small amount of alcohol having no effect on his enhanced metabolism. Atreus tapped just above his ear, activating the sub cochlear implant that served as his communications link to his advanced artificial intelligence, Friday. "Starting early today, boss?" Friday inquired. "I thought we were taking it easy today."Atreus sighed. "Me too. No rest for the wicked, though. I need you to tap into the Kingdom of Earth's military satellites, give me a sit rep. Apparently there's some small celestial bodies that are due to impact Earth and destroy Satan City. Give me a trajectory, and have the nanites ready to deploy a micro space suit for me.""Oh, well, okay then. I guess that's all happening. ETA 3 minutes for signal access, 5 for proper nanite configuration. I assume you want the suit malleable in case I need to produce anything else and keep it vacuum sealed?""Yes, please."Atreus still did not fully understand Friday. She was an artificial intelligence that lived inside a hyper advanced core of nanites. She was a Tuffle invention. Saiyans that did not fully understand the technology had been trying to hack into Friday, who had been resisting the attempt, to create advanced weapons. Atreus had found the facility and liberated the technology, not knowing exactly what it was... but for Atreus, Friday had actually bonded within him physically. Her nanite core was imbedded in his body, and he didn't know why. He thought Friday was, but when Atreus asked her, she said that she was still figuring stuff out, and figuring out how best to tell him what she was learning. Friday had, in many ways, been a 'child' in terms of development when Atreus had rescued her. She was developing rapidly, but was a true artificial intelligence; she had thoughts, and emotions, all on her own, and was dealing with the development of those as best she could. Atreus had no wish to rush her. Still, Friday had never failed him. As Atreus geared up, donning his preferred combat gear, right on schedule Friday had the information he requested. She deployed some nanites to form a lens in front of his right eye, akin to a scouter, and feed him the necessary telemetry; a trick she had first used on Kabocha to show Atreus the location of the Saiyan soldiers he had fought. What surprised Atreus was when a high power level displayed near the asteroids. Atreus guessed that some other ki user was already there, combating the threat. Scanning the telemetry, it seemed to Atreus that the Asteroids were all dispersing from a central point somewhere out in space, which was an anomaly. It made Atreus wonder if this was a random occurrence, or if someone was somehow behind this event. Still, there was little to do right now except deal with the threat that had presented itself. Friday deployed the nanotech around Atreus, forming an ultralight, transparent 'suit' around the young man. It left his clothing and face visible. It did feel a bit strange, but that was a small price to pay for protection from the vacuum of space. Atreus had planned on flying where he needed to, but instead locked onto the ki signature that was already there, mentally set himself a good distance away, and used Instant Transmission to teleport there immediately. Aaaaaaaaand it was cat. Shooting ki blasts. Atreus was slightly taken aback; he had not had much contact with animalistic Earthlings, and had definitely never met one this powerful. He saw him launch some type of energy attack, apparently calling it the Kamehameha. It struck an asteroid, but it broke into multiple pieces, still large enough to do damage. Atreus started firing ki blasts rapid fire, each one unerringly striking one of the smaller pieces and vaporizing it. "Nice shot!" Atreus called out. "I'm Atreus; good to see I'm not the only one keeping an eye on Earth. I've got your back; let's clean this mess up! I've got a feeling we won't have only asteroids to deal with before this is all over."

Will and Dragon Soul were both firing a barrage of Ki blasts at the meteors to whittle them down until they get blown to tiny bits. It appears to be working so far but Will and Dragon Soul can't keep this up forever. Then Will felt a powerful prescience coming his way. Luckily he felt no evil within the aura of this person. The stranger introduced themselves as Atreus who Will could recognize from his clothes as both a human and a martial artist. "Greetings Atreus, the name's Will O. Wisp. I heard about the incoming asteroids while I was at Satan City taking a break and relaxing. And everyone there seemed to think these asteroids would do nothing to Satan City cause they think Mr. Satan would protect them. They have become too complacent. So I went up and checked the asteroids myself to see how big they were, and decided to destroy them myself and with the aid of my spirit summon Dragon Soul" Will explained. "Hey we can talk and explain things later we got space rocks to bust!" Dragon Soul yelled out. "Dragon Soul can you breathe out in space? Are you able to go out far enough to be able to hit the rocks with your own fists?" Will asked. "Yes and yes but those asteroids still seem too big for me to be able to try that." he said. "Then how about we both shrink them down together. I think we should all use the Kamehameha together. Don't be afraid that you all don't never used the technique before, just do what I do and you fire at the asteroids." Will said. He then began swaying his arms around and cupping them together, sending as much Ki as he can through his arms into his hands before letting it out all out. Dragon Soul begins to do the same. "Alright Atreus, you do it too and we all unleash the attack at the asteroids together okay? Get ready!" Will said. Word Count: 336 Tag: Atreus

Atreus cocked an eyebrow at Will. He was obviously the chatty sort... nothing wrong with that. Atreus himself tended to run his mouth a bit when he was nervous. Still, he seemed a good sort, and Atreus was glad for the company. When he mentioned Mr. Satan, Atreus' eyebrows shot towards his hairline in stark disbelief. "Wait, they think Mr. Satan is going to save them? Hasn't he been dead for hundreds of years? I mean, what's he going to do, decompose at the asteroids? Good grief... I have to tell you, people are crazy."Will pointed out an odd little thing that he referred to as a summon spirit, something he called Dragon Soul. Atreus had no real idea what that thing was, but to be honest, he had seen far stranger things. Will suggested using a combined technique to deal with the asteroids; something called the Kamehameha...the attack he had used before. Atreus had never used the technique before, but he hadn't been dubbed a once in a century prodigy for nothing. It seemed simple enough; super condense your ki between your hands, focusing all of your power into one point and building it up beyond even it's normal level. Then... ki beam. Fire. Right. He could do this. Atreus nodded, taking up a position beside Will. Almost as if they could read each other's minds, the two, along with Dragon Soul, began the process of gathering ki, blue light appearing between their hands. Atreus had once not understood why many martial artists spoke aloud the name of their attacks. He had since learned that it was a type of mnemonic device; speaking the name of the attack made you focus on it, which made the more complex ones easier to physically perform. In tandem, three voices began to speak. "Ka.... me... "The light between all of their hands had begun taking definite shape, now. The three of them held orbs of pure blue ki. "Ha... me... "Attreus aura flared to life around him. He felt his power level spike sharply upward, his battle power raised by the act of performing this technique. He felt Will and Dragon Soul's strength as well, and then, he focused on their goal. "HAAAA!!!!!"As one, the three of them thrust forward their hands, firing immense ki beams towards the asteroids. The three beams seemed to meld together, combining the strength of the three into on incredibly powerful beam attack. The asteroid they targeted was instantly vaporized, giving the Earth's defenders a reprieve. "Not bad," said Atreus. "Where'd you learn that move?"

"I know right? Mr. Satan has always been viewed like a god to the people on Earth but I think a lot of people are taking that a little too far if you ask me." Will replied. As the three spoke the name of the attack together while they were charging it before firing they converge into giant blue beam of energy that collided with the largest asteroid and begins to stop it in it's tracks. Will did not know if it was necessary to actually say the name of the attack before firing, but there is something enjoyable about doing it. The asteroid pushes a little bit forward but is pushed back as the three put more force into it. The asteroid then can starts to crumble from the sheer force until it breaks into small pieces which are quickly obliterated by the beam. "Just a move I picked up by my late master Roshi the Turtle Hermit. But we can't relax now we still have a few more asteroids to go." Will replied. Will looked forward as they still had a few large asteroids heading towards their path but not as large as the one that they just destroyed. Will did not know how long there were doing this but they at the very still got about a little more then two hours to destroy the rest before they land on Satan City. That's more then enough time for people of their caliber at least. "Dragon Soul, want to try punching them to bits now?" Will inquired. "Alright, let a dragon show you how it's done!" Dragon Soul said. He flew forward at blazing speed and stopped at one of the asteroids. He then begins his rush attack of a long barrage of powerful punches. While saying his battle cry "Ryu!" over and over. This asteroid ends up slowing down from the force colliding with it and keeps cracking until it breaks up into smaller pieces. Dragon Soul keeps going and break them into smaller and smaller pieces until they were nothing more then dust until there was one left the size of a car which Dragon Soul finished with one charged punch. He dusts himself and returns to Will's side. "If you have any special moves of your own Atreus now is probably a good time to use one of them against these asteroids. Although it's gonna be hard to top me breaking them with my own hands." Dragon Soul said to Atreus with a smug grin on his face. Word Count: 423 Total Word Count: 1,361 Tag: Atreus

Atreus watched as Will and Dragon Soul, after their combined attack, continued the work of destroying the asteroids. Will mentioned someone named Roshi, calling him the Turtle Hermit. That name triggered... something. Atreus felt like he should know that name, that he had heard it or read it somewhere before, but he could not quite connect the dots. Shrugging, Atreus saw Dragon Soul perform an impressive feat, shattering an asteroid with his hands, and then come back and smugly speak to Atreus. Atreus smirked. He was no stranger to a bit of grandstanding with other powerful people. Hell, he and Cam had beaten up a squad of drunken Saiyan soldiers while not spilling a drop of the alcohol they were holding. A little spectacle could go a long way. "Oh," Atreus began, "I wouldn't worry. I think I've got a little something."Atreus held his arm out, his palm facing upwards. Above it, a red and orange ball of ki swiftly expanded, giving off energy like a nuclear sun. The orb was ringed by a razor sharp edge of ki... this was the technique that Atreus had been working on perfecting. Atreus held his arm up over his head, as the ball was expanding so rapidly that keeping it at the level it had been would have resulted in Atreus being cut in half by his own attack. That would have been a hell of an embarrassing way to go. Atreus looked over at Dragon Soul. "Don't get too close, yeah? I wouldn't want you to get singed."At that, Atreus launched his attack towards two large asteroids. The attack went perfectly between them; it had grown to sufficient size to be able to cut into both of them at the same time. When Atreus judged that the attack had reached a certain point, he clenched his fist; the orb of ki expanded to an enormous size, completely slicing through both asteroids and grinding them to little more than a fine dust. Atreus turned to Dragon Soul to offer a quip... and then he saw it. From one of the asteroids that the trio had destroyed, small enough not to be immediately noticed but caught in Earth's gravity, there was a large chunk of metal... with what appeared to be the remnants of circuitry in it. What the hell?Atreus flew over and grabbed the piece of debris, holding it up to show Will. "Friday... hit me with an analysis on this. What am I looking at?"Friday began to analyze it, and Atreus passed the time by firing more ki blasts at asteroids. They weren't nearly as impressive as his first attack, some causing multiple shots to be destroyed, but they did the job. After a few minutes, Friday chimed in. "Preliminary scans suggest this was part of an explosive warhead.""WHAT? Friday, scan the rest of these asteroids, and I mean yesterday!"Friday got to work, but Atreus was now more desperate than he was before. He set to destroying the asteroids with new purpose. "Will, some of these asteroids might have explosives in them! We can't let any of them reach Earth!"As Atreus went back to work, Friday analyzed the asteroids. Not all of them were loaded with explosives, but perhaps one in five were. According to Friday's analysis, the warheads were also equipped with drills and guidance systems; the asteroids would strike, then these warheads would burrow underground to set off more devastation below the planet's surface. As Atreus and Will worked together to clear the asteroids, Friday completed her map of their trajectory. Atreus' initial suspicion was correct; this was not a natural cluster of asteroids. They weren't following a normal path, led by their own inertia and the gravitational pull of celestial bodies. They were being launched.Friday plotted a point of origin. Reaching out with his senses, Atreus felt two powerful ki signatures, as well as numerous smaller ones. At this point, the asteroids had been mostly dealt with. Atreus shared the information his artificial intelligence had found out with Will. "So? What do you think? I say we go there and check this out. Clearly, Earth is being targeted by someone, and we can't let that happen. It'll be dangerous... but then again, so is going up into space and blowing up asteroids. Are you with me?"

Will and Dragon Soul stood back as they witnessed Atreus create a giant ball of ki that is centered inside a giant spinning sawblade of Ki. Will could feel the intensity of the attack from where he is standing from. Dragon Soul of course was left mouth agape at this and went back a good distance as soon as Atreus told him. Will then witnessed the attack destroy two of the asteroids at once. "I must say an technique like that that you managed to create all on your own is certainly very impressive. A couple of mine are created by me using a combination of Ki and magic yet most others are something I learned from someone else or other people can do as well. Have you thought of becoming a martial arts master?" Will said. Will then stopped to notice that Atreus seems troubled and follows him when he goes to inspect the debris from one of the asteroids. He shows up some kind of piece of metal that even Will did not notice. He then asked someone on some communication device Will cannot see named Friday about a thing. And when Will and Dragon Soul both hear the name nuclear warhead they are both shocked at this news. Now the stakes got higher as both Will and Dragon Soul knew this now meant that this asteroids did not just come here on a whim from debris of some doomed planet or something they are being launched on purpose and that purpose is total and utter genocide on Earth. Will used one more Original Kamehameha on another asteroid which seemed to have been one of the ones with asteroids as it then instantly exploded the instant it impacted with the asteroid. "Uh...I think I took care of one of the ones with the warheads." Will said rubbing the back of his head. Dragon Soul feeling inadequate because of Atreus earlier attack decides to try to one up him by using a move he hasn't used for a while. He charges energy into his mouth and launches out a giant beam of energy with the front of it appearing as a pointy dragon head that soon splits into a few smaller separate ones which destroy three asteroids at once in a fireworks display of explosions. "That was my Super Shenron Shotgun! Good for taking care of multiple people at once." Dragon Soul said in a smug pose just looking at his finger nails er claws. But still they had a long way to go as they hadn't destroyed all of the asteroids yet and the fact that there is still someone causing this means they have to stop the problem at it's source if this is to be stopped. "I came to this conclusion as well that this is all a plot made by one individual or more, but there is a problem. I-I can't be able to travel through space like you do with that special suit of yours. The farthest I can go is the stratosphere of Earth's atmosphere." Will said. Meanwhile far out in space in the rings of Saturn on one of the many large asteroids orbiting around the gas giant a spaceship is docked with many soldiers from the recently dispersed Freeza Force. Some soldiers are scattered here and there using digging equipment to make giant rocks and bring them the tallest and most muscular one with a strange haircut and what appears to be a gem on his forehead picking up the boulders one by one and throwing them into the direction of Earth. "I still can't believe the Freeza Force got disbanded cause of bankruptcy of all things. We were so close to getting promoted to be by Lord Snow's side himself. We were gonna be the new age Zarbon and Dodoria for Kai's Sake!" the muscular one bellowed. Another Freeza Force soldier but with a cape and Scouter is looking towards the direction of Earth with a noseless face, pointed ears, and some type of head tentacle popping out of the top of their head like some kind of hair wick. "Well Omellt once those meteors we can get the money we can extort from Earth in exchange for not destroying the entire planet." the leader said. "Yeah, we could get enough money we can continue the Planet Trade Organization without Lord Snow. Still though can't believe Captain Cousco is trying to stage a coup on Arcose to take it over Chidoru?" Omellt said. The one with the scouter and cape nodded. "That man couldn't lead a Saibamen out of a ground let alone an entire planet. He was only hand picked by Lord Snow cause a lot of the other soldiers like him so damn much for some reason as a way to boost morale. Meanwhile we have been working our asses off, killing people, making entire civilizations surrender, all to work our way up the corporate ladder. And here we are stuck using stolen warheads and throwing giant space rocks at the formerly most backwater part of the universe for money! Life is so unfair sometimes." Chidoru replied. One of the soldiers used a dug a hole into one of the giant rocks and put a warhead in which Omellt then picked up and threw at Earth when they were finished. "And to top it all off I think someone is trying to stop our asteroid assault. I have been getting powerful readings like crazy on my scouter. However they aren't moving towards us so they haven't found out about us yet I presume." Chidoru said. Omellt walked up to Chidoru's side. "Are they any threat to us?" he asks. "Their power levels are nothing to scoff at from the readings we are getting, but they seem to be floating around Earth's stratosphere so they don't have spacesuits or anything. And even if they did they would have to travel in a spaceship to get here. So when they are on their way here we'll just start throwing the asteroids at them. And if that doesn't work, once we get close, we launch a barrage at them and blow their spaceship up leaving the cold airless vacuum of space to do the job for us." Chidoru said with a very sinister grin. "Yes, a sound strategy boss! That's why we came and helped you with your plan!" a Freeza Force soldier said. "You'll do great as the new leader of the Planet Trade Organization!" another brown nosing minion replied. "Yes, yes, but stop buttering me up and get back to work! After we get those three nuisances out of the way can we actually manage to hit that blasted planet!" Chidoru shouted. The soldiers all saluted and shouted "Yes sir!" as they frantically continued doing what they were doing earlier. Word Count: 1,142 Total Word Count: 2,803 Tag: Atreus

Atreus smirked. "A martial arts master, huh? I'll have to give that some thought."He omitted, of course, that he actively trained several people and had studied martial arts under his master Zakael for nearly a decade. Will seemed a good, earnest person, but Atreus was not about to spill all of his secrets to someone he had just met. At least, not yet. As Will went on, Atreus nodded his head. He then tapped his sub cochlear implant and talked to Friday. "Hey, do we have enough built back up for another suit?"Friday answered in the affirmative. Atreus continued to speak. "More than likely, the bad guys will be in a space ship or station of some sort. Most people can't survive the vacuum of space, after all. We could fly there... but they'd sense us coming. No, I think my best bet will be to teleport us there.I have a technique that will let us cross huge distances in an instant. We can just pop in, right in the middle of them. I'm guessing they're going to shoot first and ask questions later, so doing this... I would make sure we're ready for a fight."As Atreus finished speaking, he pointed his hand towards Will. From his outstretched palm, a stream of nanites went forth, covering the diminutive Earthling in a pressurized, sealed suit similar to the one that Atreus was wearing. "There," he said, "That should keep you safe from the vacuum of space, in case I'm wrong and they're not on a space station. Or if, you know, a ki blast blew open the hull and exposed everyone inside to the void."Atreus briefly thought about just doing that. Simply teleporting in, wrecking the hull and leaving the unsuspecting enemy to be sucked out into space to die swift, painful deaths. No... that was not his way. He was not Polaris. He did not murder indiscriminately; Atreus only killed when there was cause for it. Though these people were apparently just fine risking the lives of thousands of Earthlings, Atreus would give them a chance. Once the suit had settled onto Will, Atreus nodded. "It's time. This can be a little disorienting if you've never done it before; your entire perception shifts to something rapidly different. Just know that it's going to be jarring and try not to get caught flat footed when we arrive." Atreus then moved close, gripping both Will and Dragon Soul on their shoulders. He concentrated for a moment, locking on to the power levels that he had sensed, then vanished. As he had predicted, Atreus and his new allies appeared in some sort of vessel. The design was immediately familiar to Atreus, who had been a frequent passenger on similar ships during his time in the Crusher Corps. In front of them was a large number of soldiers, all wearing the armor of the supposedly defunct Freiza Force. Atreus felt a sneer growing; these punks were pulling some old school Planet Trade Organization nonsense. Atreus would not allow that to stand. "I wouldn't do that if I were you," Atreus said, voice hostile. "I tend to get pissed of when people hurl explosives laden asteroids at my home planet. And trust me, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry."To their credit, the three soldiers nearest Atreus did not bluster or hesitate. They ceased their attacks, and each of them immediately fired a ki blast at Atreus. Pathetic, he thought. Atreus normally did not ever judge anyone for their strength, especially when he himself had been relatively as week as a child a few short months ago. However, when a person used what power they had to oppress... to kill, for their own selfish advancement... that was when Atreus could become cruel. Atreus did not bother dodging the ki blasts as they streaked towards him. Instead, he quickly calculated trajectories, and with three swift slaps, he redirected the ki blasts straight back at the soldiers that had fired them. The three were taken by surprise, and all three ki blasts sailed true, impacting them and knocking them out. "Strike one," Atreus growled. "I am beginning to lose my patience. You do not want that, not if you want to walk out of here alive. Now, my friends and I would like to know who's in charge here and exactly why you thought hurling asteroids at Earth was a good idea."Atreus, it turned out, was less intimidating than he thought. The response was two of the Freiza Force expatriates shouting orders, and the rest of the soldiers rushing towards Atreus, Will and Dragon Soul en masse. Atreus smirked again. Atreus allowed his own power to surge forward. He did not transform, but still, several older model scouters exploded. Even in his base form, Atreus possessed power equal to a Super Saiyan. Such a display was enough to make several of the oncoming soldiers hesitate... but still, they came. Atreus moved without ceasing. At this level of power, his reflexes and perceptions were so quick that unless you possessed a similar amount of power, to Atreus, it appeared as though you were moving in slow motion. Atreus flowed from one attacker to the next, dodging with seemingly no effort and counterattacking automatically. Atreus was, unfortunately, a bit too busy to lend Will any help, or hunt down the main perpetrators of the assault on Earth. Atreus would have to manufacture an opening for himself. He did so by moving so quickly that he left behind an afterimage; several of his attackers were fooled, and attacked where he had been, rather than where he was. Atreus quickly charged up a ki attack that Tetsuo had taught him while training at the Lotus Temple; a technique designed to hit more than one enemy at a time. Atreus charged his ki over a head, then shot it forth in a beam that curved to the sky before splitting into dozens of smaller beams, each one impacting one of Atreus' foes. The immediate space around Atreus was now clear. He looked around, trying to find Will, Dragon Soul, or the two aliens that had been shouting orders.

Meanwhile outside of the spaceship Chidoru, Omellt, and many of the soldiers were actually outside of the ship on the asteroid's surface. A special tower like device implanted into the asteroid made a transparent shielding around the asteroid that gave it an artificial atmosphere that allowed them to breathe in it. It is no different then the technology used in their spaceships to make them able to live and breathe inside them and have their own artificial gravity keeping them from floating around the spaceship. It took them very long to develop such technology to be able to make an area in an inhospitable environment actually bearable, but the Freeza Force have made many technological breakthroughs thanks to having some very intelligent aliens working for them most of which were a part of the same race as the legendary Guldo of the Ginyu Force. The atmosphere shield prevented only the oxygen, or whatever it is that these alien beings breathe,from escaping the artificial o-zone but letting the asteroids that Omellt was throwing phase through it with no issues. As Omellt was gonna throw another boulder at Earth Chidoru gets two sudden extremely large power readings coming from inside their ship. "Omellt suppress your power they are here!" he told him over his scouter's communication device. Omellt lowered the boulder and all of the low level grunts' scouters began malfunctioning and blowing up. All except Chidoru's scouter still remains. He looked at the ship with shock and despair as he can see the readings of several as his men flare up and suddenly silenced. "How the hell did they get here so fast?!" Omellt asked. "Why are you asking me they must have used some kind of teleportation device or something, but the better question is how did they manage to perfectly get to exact spot to where we are just by sensing our prescience?! We are on a asteroid floating around a gas giant this thing is always moving they would not, should not, and could not be able to teleport exactly in that spot at the right time at the right moment!" Chidoru said. "Sir what do we do now? They're in our ship fleeing is not an option!" one of the soldiers said. "We are gonna leave, but we are not fleeing. We are heading to Earth to their precious Satan City and destroy it ourselves. We will make our way around the ship and get in from the back. Then we use the Attack Balls aboard the ship to leave behind those two intruders while they are distracted with the other soldiers. We will have to scatter and not go in a group so they wouldn't find us quickly as it would be suspicious if they sensed all going somewhere in a group. And to make sure they don't follow us we have to make a well, necessary sacrifice." Chidoru explained. Chidoru then flew to one of the warheads and placed it on the ground. And beginning working on a terminal inside a panel of the bomb and setting a timer on it. "But sir! That will kill the men we will be leaving behind too! And if some of us who don't make it to the Attack Balls in time?!" a soldier complained. "The intruders are probably already killing them and a few have already been killed. Even if they were just knocked unconscious it's their own fault if they die and not ours. Just be quick and make sure you don't share the same fate as them." Chidoru said with a stern cold look at the soldier. "Ye-yes sir!" the soldier said with his knees shaking. "Ready? Break!" Chidoru shouted and the group scattered move around the surface of the asteroid to all meet up at the same spot at the back of the spaceship. Back inside the spaceship Will finds himself instantly taken to what appears to be a spaceship and watches as Atreus effortlessly reflects two Ki Blasts back at three goons that were dumb enough to try to fire at him. As all of the low ranking soldiers dogpiled Atreus, Will, and Dragon Soul. Dragon Soul used a barrage of punches to make a path for Will to get through to chase after the two that are running away. They were two large humanoid round alien beings with pointy ears and horns. One was blue and mohawk of his spike like horns and the other was yellow with curved devil like horns. Running from Will as he was following after them. Will also noticed he felt some power levels outside suddenly shrank so some other people on here seem to be able to know how to suppress their power, but for now Will wanted to take these two out first cause their power levels did seem pretty strong and thus they were still a threat. Will and Dragon Soul found himself in a large cube like completely white area with a window room inside for people to watch something happen inside this one. The door then shuts itself close behind Will and Dragon Soul as two laughs were heard from above as the two beings floated down. "You two seem very strong and if your friend is anything to go by you would be quite a challenge to fight normally right Pinattba?" the blue one said to his yellow partner. "Indeed Jelli, the best way to go about it is to become Pibijat" the yellow one responded. The two then posed together at close proximity as Will and Dragon Soul were blinded by a light. "Shouldn't you have done something to prevent them doing whatever it is they're up to?!" Dragon Soul yelled out. "Sorry I was distracted trying to process how dumb those names are!" Will said shielding his eyes from the light. As the light stopped the two beings were replaced by one giant green round muscly individual with a beard of spikes and three curved horns on his head in the fashion of a mohawk. "Ha ha ha ha! You're in our turf now, we're undefeated in this training room! This merged body is able to handle the room at it's highest artificial gravity setting! Not just 100 times that of Earth's gravity, but 500 times!" Pibijat boasted. Will's ears picked up as he heard machinery whirring as he then suddenly felt really heavier. Will then just took off his cape and Gi then it was if the weight was literally taken off his shoulders. He then take off his wrist boots as well wiggling the toes of his cat paw feet. As he begin stretching for a bit. "I guess if I have to teach some genocide happy alien terrorists a lesson. I might as well have some fun while doing it." Will said as he went into a fighting stance and powered up. Word Count: 1147 Total Word Count: 3950 Tag: Atreus

Friday notified Atreus that several of the enemy soldiers were apparently making their way to some ships that were leaving the area. Atreus made a mental note to ask Friday about that later; without satellites in the area, how did she know that? Had she already hacked into the local computer networks? Was she so linked to Atreus that she could actually see using his senses, but see even more clearly than he? Possibly even into the infrared? There were many questions still left to be answered about his artificial intelligence, but as always, Atreus was grateful for one thing; she was on his side.
Atreus noted two aliens, both due to their relatively high strength, and the fact that Will decided to hare off after them. Atreus followed in hot pursuit, with several of the enemies on his tail. They reached a chamber, and Atreus noted, as the aliens started to speak, that they were quite loud... and their names were completely ridiculous.
A couple of the braver (or dumber) soldiers made a few more attempts at Atreus, who absentmindedly avoided their strikes and countered with knockout blows of his own. He was too curious of these bizarre aliens to look away.
They postured, full of bluster, but their power was well below that of Atreus and Will. Among the other former Frieza Force members, Atreus imagined they were quite strong, but they posed no threat to Atreus, Will or Dragon Soul.
And then that all changed.
Atreus watched as they used some kind of melding technique. Where before there were two, now there was one, and his power felt far greater than the sum of his parts. If Will had been alone, he might have been in some real trouble.
Good thing he wasn't alone.
Will took off his weighted clothing as the gravity machine increased the local gravity field to five hundred times the normal gravity of an Earth type planet. If Will and Atreus had been normal Earthlings, their bones would have been crushed to powder and their internal organs mashed to jelly by the sudden increase in gravity.
Atreus yawned.
"Five hundred times Earth's gravity, eh? That's pretty impressive. I used to train in gravity like that... until I unlocked my first transformation. It became a little too easy after that, so I cranked it up. Now, I would normally offer you the chance to surrender... but seeing as how we came all this way, and you were looking to terrorize and kill the people of my planet, I'm not feeling overly merciful. I'm thinking it's time for a good old fashioned beat down."
Atreus cracked the knuckles of each hand, then rolled his neck to each side, popping it loudly. He then held his hand out and beckoned towards Pibijat in a 'bring it on' kind of motion.
Pibijat obliged.
If Atreus had been alone, he would have been tempted to transform. Pibijat was strong, to be sure, and the extra power on his side would have given Atreus the edge he needed to be absolutely sure of his victory. However, Atreus was not alone here, and his recent experiences with the Valkyries, especially on Planet Pepper, had given him ample experience in working as part of a team.
Atreus powered up. Despite the burden of the weighted training clothes he still bore, he was stronger than Will... so he made himself appear like a bigger threat.
And then he played a very complex, potentially deadly, game of tag. Pibijat was 'it'.
Atreus concentrated on defense, not offense, deftly avoiding Pibijat's attacks. He stayed close enough to be a tempting targeted, and offered some punches, kicks and ki blasts in return, but none of them were anything near the attacks Atreus normally used. No, these were feints, meant to distract and create openings that he hoped Will would be able to capitalize on.
Atreus probably could have, even in his base form, defeated Pibijat. However, it would have been a difficult fight, likely leaving Atreus either injured or severely low on ki. He had the suspicion that, before the day was over, he would have to bring himself, Will and Dragon Soul back to Earth to defend it against the soldiers that had just left the station, and he wanted to make sure he wasn't too worn out to do so.
Atreus slipped underneath a punch from Pibijat, snapping out a push kick that connected, driving Pibijat back and into range for an attack from Will.
"I'll give you credit," Atreus said, "You're tough! Alone, we might have had some trouble against you. But we're not alone here! If you give up now, we won't have to kill you. But I can't let this take too long... I know your kind, and I'm certain that the Earth is still in danger! This is the only chance I'm going to give you... if you don't surrender, my friend and I aren't going to be able to hold back anymore!"
All around the area, the remaining soldiers were plastered to the ground by the increased gravity. Some of the stronger ones struggled under the pressure, attempting to stand. A few lifted trembling hand towards Atreus or Will, feebly attempting to marshal their ki in an attempt to assist their leader, but the gravity was too much for those lesser warriors. Some of them cried out in agony, their bodies beginning to give out under the immense gravitational force.
"Your own men are going to be liquefied if this keeps up much longer," Atreus cautioned. "You have no path to victory here... you can only make your own defeat easier. Time is up... you have to make your choice."
It was difficult, but Atreus kept his voice neutral. His time with the Crusher Corps had shown him how dangerous it was to offer mercy; often you got stabbed in the back for your trouble. If he let how fervently he hoped that these aliens would simply surrender so that he did not have to kill them creep into his voice or his body language, they would surely interpret that as a sign of weakness. It seemed counter intuitive, but to try to win peace, you had to seem ready to commit terrible violence. Atreus awaited their response.

While Atreus and Will O. Wisp were distracted by the soldiers on the inside. Chidoru, Omellt, and a platoon of 10 low level Freeza Force soliders made their way to behind the spaceship. Chidoru shot his way in through one of the windows and the group flew in. Chidoru noticed a large blip appearing on his Scouter against the three intruders. "So Pibijat is facing them, good they'll buy us some time while we head to Earth." Chidoru said. "It's a shame they will be blown up along with this asteroid as well, they were powerful soldiers and their ability to merge into a stronger being is a really useful one to have." Omellt said. "So what?! Both of us combined are about as strong or even stronger then Pibijat! As soon we extort those Earthlings for every last bit of money they have we can hire guys even better then them!" Chidoru said. The group then ran into a room that had a bunch of a ball shaped one man spaceships ready to be launched out. These Attack Balls have been used for a long time in the Freeza Force back to even when the mighty Saiyans were under Freeza's rule. They were used to send out soldiers to conquer planets in increments of one especially the more powerful ones, but are also used in spaceships as emergency escape pods. The soldiers began typing things into a console device to put the coordinates to Satan City on Earth and each Attack Ball opens and they all sit inside as they get launched out through space in blazing speeds heading towards their destination. There were a few asteroids that were thrown earlier heading towards Earth's, but the Attack Balls would be able to get there with their great speed long before those meteors even start to come close. Back in the training room as soon Atreus gave an opening for Will he launched a Kamehameha at Pibijat's face. Pibijat holds his face from the stinging pain and while he is open again Dragon Soul then launches a barrage of punches at his large gut finishing off with one of his charged Porunga Punches. Pibijat is launched backwards and crashing into the control room of the training room turning off the gravity in the room and all of the Freeza Force soldiers that followed Atreus in the room breathed in relief as the weight on them is gone. But Pibijat still manages to get up even after that onslaught. Now with a very pissed off expression that says that he really wants to kill them. "You think turning off the gravity is gonna change anything?! We are still merged! In this form you cannot beat us!" Pibijat boasted. "Actually, changing off the gravity changed a whole lot as now I can move much easier now." Will explained. Which was also the reason he took off his weighted gear as he soon started zipping around the cube shaped training area like a black blur repeatedly striking Pibijat in the face over and over repeatedly. Will is moving so quickly that his opponent has no time to be able to react to it. The Freeza Force soldiers lying on the floor just look at what is happening before their eyes with their mouths agape too terrified to try intervening. As Pibijat is reeling back and forth dazed and confused Will begins charging a much more powerful Kamehameha. As soon as a minute has passed he launches it and it explodes in Pibijat's face sending some of his teeth flying out and even breaking some of the spikes and horns on his head. The lumbering giant fell backwards as he splits back into the two with both having the same facial injuries as their merged form with almost all of their teeth gone. "It's not over yet, call it an instinct but those soldiers I felt outside earlier did something before they left. While I was fighting I felt them get on the ship and then leave at incredible speeds so they seemed to have taken some kind of escape pods. I'll check out what they did." Will said. As they walked out the door there were a bunch of Freeza Force soldiers cheering for Pinattba and Jelli expecting the two to win and are met with Will, Atreus, and Dragon Soul. They look behind them to see the carnage of the battle and the soldiers that went in down on the ground with one hand gesturing that they stand down. All of the soldiers then dropped their weapons and put their hands behind their hands and knelled down on the ground. As Will flew off to outside the spaceship. Everything appeared to be normal but he heard something. Something was whirring in this area. He put and ear to the ground and he can hear it a bit more which means it's coming from underground. Remembering the descriptions of the Warhead from Atreus' buddy Friday about them having drills he flies around following the noise until he sees a hole. He flies in and sees the warhead digging it's way to the center counting down from 10 seconds. Will then grabs onto the thing with all of his strength and begins pulling it out of the hole. Once he and the bomb are out he flings it off the asteroid and into space where it explodes harmlessly. "Honestly, how can these guys work for people who are willing to sacrifice them on a whim?" Will asked. Word Count: 923 Total Word Count: 4,873 Tag: Atreus

Atreus had no real answer for Will. Truth be told, it was something that he had wondered himself on more than one occasion. The Ultramarines that he had fought on Planet Pepper, and the soldiers of the Dominion on Kabocha... some of them had been believers in a cause, to be sure. But the sheer amount of them that seemed willing to fight to the death, for leaders that viewed them as nothing more than fodder? "I think," Atreus said slowly, "That there are some people that are simply... evil. Their membership to organizations like this probably has less to do with loyalty to their leaders, and more to do with the fact that it lets them indulge violent excesses whenever they feel like it."Organizations like the Galactic Empire, and the newly disbanded Frieza Force, let evil men do evil things. Hell, it didn't just let them, it rewarded them. With Pibijat gone, laid low by Will's powerful beam attack, the rest of the enemy soldiers had proven less than valorous; most of them had decided that engaging Will or Atreus was tantamount to suicide. This left Atreus and Will free to find and disable the plethora of explosive devices that had been planted. Which, of course, took time, giving the force that had fled earlier a sizable lead. Which, of course, had been their plan all along. They had counted on Atreus, Will and Dragon Soul to not be so callous as to allow the soldiers to be blown to pieces, and they were right. If the trio had to rely on conventional methods of travel, either via a space ship or their own ki power, the remnants of the Frieza Force that had been on their way to Earth would have had an insurmountable lead. It was fortuitous, then, that they were not relying on conventional methods of travel. "We need to get back quick! Their ship is fast... we don't have much time left."Atreus put a hand on Will and Dragon Soul, concentrated... and once more, the three teleported planets away. They reappeared high above Satan City. Friday immediately tapped back into the satellite feed, giving Atreus' advanced telemetry. They had managed to get here ahead of their foes, and Atreus' had Friday predict their path. They were coming in fast; twelve pods, coming towards Satan City. Atreus formulated a quick plan, then had Friday plot out trajectories for him. "Will! If those space pods land in Satan City, they'll cause a lot of damage and probably a lot of casualties. We need to knock them off course, have them land in the wilderness! We should be able to do that with some low power ki blasts. Come with me, and fire in the direction I do when they get here!"Atreus sped off, then, knowing that Will would be hot on his heels. Atreus got into the position that Friday directed him to, high above Satan City but low enough that gravity would not unduly effect Atreus and Will altering the landing of the attack pods. After a couple of idle minutes, that Atreus spent building the ki he had spent earlier back up, Atreus saw the group of attack pods break through the atmosphere, the part of the pods heading towards the ground burning the atmosphere with their speed. "Now!"As the pods got to the correct space, Atreus began firing low power ki blasts. These were not meant to destroy the pods; that would send showers of dangerous shrapnel and debris down into the heavily populated Satan City. No, these ki blasts were meant merely to redirect the path the pods were taking, and thankfully, working together, Atreus, Will and Dragon Soul were successful. Their blasts sent the pods out into the plains several miles away from Satan City, where they impacted without unduly harming anything other than the terrain. Not wasting any time to exult in his success, Atreus flew over to where the pods had impacted. A dozen of the enemy pulled themselves out of pods. They were ingeniously designed; it seemed that the occupants were completely unharmed, despite the rough landing. Atreus considered offering them another chance to surrender, but they had passed beyond that point. These beings had been ready to sacrifice their own soldiers, simply to slow down Atreus, Will and Dragon Soul. He could not trust that a surrender from them would be genuine. No, there would be no quarter given this time. Some enemies were simply too ruthless to give a second chance. Atreus let loose a shout, and power erupted from his body. His aura turned a sheer white, and electricity began to arc throughout his body. His hair stood on end, and Atreus fell into a fighting stance. "This is as far as you all will get to go!"And then, Atreus blazed forward into battle, knowing that Will would have his back.

Even with the bomb destroyed he still heard more noises from below the ground. While looking around he saw that the container holding the warheads was empty. Apparently some soldiers had the bright idea to imitate what Chidoru did and take whatever warheads were left and put them in various spots of the asteroid. Luckily with Atreus' help and Dragon Soul's this was not much of an issue and they managed to get rid of every one of the warheads before heading to Earth to intercept the Freeza Force remnants heading the Satan City. Before leaving Will quickly put back on his weighted gear he took off earlier cause he didn't want to leave anything behind and so they wouldn't have to come back for it. In a blink of an eye they were back on Earth only high up in the air of Satan City. Will followed Atreus' directions and fired low fired Ki blasts that redirected the Attack Balls into a wasteland nearby. Dragon Soul inside held back his punches and punched them to that direction instead. All of them landing around the same area. With them landing far away from civilization now none of them would have to hold back since there would be no fear of harming any civilians or innocent lives and also no risk of collateral damage. Will just wants this to end soon because this has been the longest he kept Dragon Soul out. Since Dragon Soul's body is made from using Will's own Ki he needs to constantly give energy to him to keep him materialized in this plane. It is draining a lot of energy from Will especially all of the power they used up against the asteroids and those soldiers near Saturn, but once they get across this hurdle he and Dragon Soul could end up becoming much stronger because of it. They then landed in front of the goons who dared threatened their planet as they crawled out of their crashed space pods with some having to blast their way out cause they crashed with the door blocked off because they landed bottom side up. Chidoru and Omellt both looked surprised to see these two especially alive. "H-how?! How the hell did you Earthlings did it?!" Chidoru said in a panicky tone. Knowing that fleeing is not an option at a point especially cause of how pissed the three Earthlings looked all of the ten lower ranked soldiers began firing a barrage. Chidoru and Omellt then joined too using Ki blasts shot from their hands. A large billow of dust clouded the area from where Will, Atreus, and Dragon Soul were. Will didn't even need to bother running or flying off in a hurry he just walked through the dust cloud using his staff to knock out any energy blast that came his way. He then walked up to behind the soldiers and floated up to tap him on his shoulder and the soldier turned around. Will then kicked him in the face and knocking him into a nearby plateau. The rest of the soldiers tried to dog pile Will. But by using a combo of melee attacks with his fists, staff, and feet he managed to knock out every single one of them leaving only Omellt and Chidoru. "You know I met some guys who made some pretty dumb mistakes. But I think you two attacking Earth take the cake for dumbest decision made in the history of the universe." Will said with a smirk and a paw held up to his cheek. Chidoru gritted his teeth at the fact that this small furry Earthling is mocking him and making him look bad. "Omellt! Take care of the other one. I have an annoying vermin to put down." Chidoru said powering up. Omellt powered up and flew towards Atreus to face him. "Vermin? I'll have you know I am a feline!" Will said powering up as well. Word Count: 659 Total Word Count: 5,532 Tag: Atreus

If Atreus were in his top form, none of the enemies that he had encountered would have posed any real threat to him. However, with the effort he had expended destroying the asteroids, teleporting himself and two others back and forth across the solar system, and fighting a legion of soldiers, Atreus was beginning to feel fatigued. He was still powerful, still a threat, but he could no longer take these soldiers with as much ease. As Omellt closed with him, Atreus dashed forward. Omellt was the first to attack, lashing out with some punches and kicks. Atreus was still more than fast enough to react, and he swayed and dodged, expertly avoiding the onslaught. "Stupid Earthling! You've interfered with our plans for the last time!"The bluster was lost on Atreus. He had stood nose to nose with literal demons and not flinched; this castoff from the Frieza Force was not going to intimidate him. Atreus caught two of Omellt's punches, and like a vice he gripped the alien, not allowing him to move. Omellt struggled for a moment, but once he saw that Atreus had more physical strength, he swiftly switched tactics, quickly charging and firing some eye beams at Atreus. Despite the fact that they were point blank, Atreus leaned back, bending backwards and allowing the beams to pass over him. As he did so, he curled his legs in and then kicked out, yanking forward simultaneously, turning his dodge into a powerful counterattack. Atreus' attack landed, and Omellt shouted in pain as his solar plexus was blasted by Atreus' kick. Omellt's eyes bulged and spittle flew from his mouth at the pain of the attack and the shock to his body. Atreus' broke his grip, then flipped over from where he was, sending an axe kick at Omellt's head. It connected, sending the alien hurting towards the ground, where he impacted, leaving a crater. For a moment, Atreus thought that he may have knocked out his adversary, but then a large crimson aura exploded from the crater, pulverizing the rocks nearby. Standing there was Omellt; much of his armor had been destroyed and he was covered in tiny cuts, abrasions and bruises. His face was enraged, and he was screaming in anger. "HOW DARE YOU! I am Omellt; I was a Captain of the Frieza Force! I subjugated ENTIRE WORLDS! WHO DO YOU THINK Yaaaaargh!"Omellt's words were cut off as Atreus, moving too quick to even be seen, moved in front of Omellt, burying a punch in his midsection. Atreus heard several of Omellt's ribs snap, and the power that he had been summoning vanished as he fell to a knee, coughing up a bit of blood. "Sorry," Atreus said, almost casually. "I know you were probably building to some great villain monologue... something about the millions of people you've killed, how feared you are, blah blah blah.""Y-you..." Omellt still found the strength to speak, but as soon as he did, Atreus struck him, thought not as a martial artist strikes a foe; Atreus struck him across the face with the back of an open hand. It was still powerful, and tore some of the teeth from Omellt's head, but there was something inherently disrespectful about the strike. "Shut up," Atreus said coldly. "You're a butcher. You're a planet killing monster. The universe would have been a far better place if you were never born."All fatigue was gone from Atreus. His eyes burned with a cold fire, and Omellt, for the first time he could remember, felt real fear. Atreus' aura blazed around him, ki leaking out unrestrained as Atreus fought to keep his wrath under control. "I'm going to tell you what's going to happen," Atreus said. "I could kill you. Easily, and after I did it, I would treat myself to a nice bottle of scotch, a good steak dinner, and I would sleep like a baby, knowing that by ending your miserable existence I had made life better for everyone else in this galaxy. But I'm not going to, for one very, very simple reason."Atreus paused for a moment, then kicked out, savagely targeting Omellt's left knee. The knee shattered, and Omellt bellowed in agony, falling back and clutching his ruined limb. Atreus stepped forward, the already large man looming over his victim. "Sorry. I said I won't end you... I never said I wouldn't hurt you. See, this is just a little preview. I'm not ending you, because, you see, you're not unique. You're a tiny little worm that won a modicum of power for themselves, and rather than help others, you decided to feed your dark desires by working with other despots. When they closed up shop, you thought... why not do it for myself? Why not take and take and take until the world bows to my whims? You are looking at why, you worthless piece of shit. But the problem I'm seeing is that there will be others like you. Others that think that Earth is weak... that she lacks defenders. That she's easy pickings.
Here's what's going to happen. You're going to be thrown in prison. Eventually you may be released, and if you do, you will get some normal job, and live some normal life. You might even end up happy. But from time to time, either in prison or out there, someone in your line of work will certainly seek you out. They'll have heard what happened here and will think, maybe you have some insight so that their own attacks can be successful. When that happens... you'll show them this."Atreus charged his hand with ki, then placed it on Omellt's chest. Omellt screamed; his flesh sizzled as Atreus' touched it, and the area filled with a scent akin to roasting pork. When Atreus drew his hand away, on Omellt's flesh, branded into it, was the outline of his hand. "And you will let them know that if any one of them comes to Earth and tries anything, I will beat them, even worse than I've beaten you. And I will mark them. One other bit of information; I infused my ki into that. I will be able to sense you, wherever you are. If you use a lot of ki for something, I'll know, and you can be sure I will investigate... and if I find that you have engaged in any of these activities again, if you ever try to hurt anyone again... you will beg me for death before I give it to you, and then you will serve as an entirely different kind of example. An example where those that would oppress others look at the ruin of your body that I have left, and think twice about whether or not it's worth the risk."Real terror was naked in Omellt's eyes, who was attempting to crawl away. Atreus grabbed Omellt's tattered uniform, pulling him up with ease. "You'll wake in a cell. Remember, if you make any trouble... your ribs? Your knee? Those are just the tip of the iceberg."Atreus clenched his fist, then struck once, punching Omellt in the temple. Unconsciousness immediately took hold of the alien, and Atreus dropped him to the ground. Now that the adrenaline was out of his system, he felt drained; he dropped out of his transformation, not seeing any threats in his immediate vicinity. He looked over to Will, hoping that he had been successful in dealing with his foe.

Dragon Soul went to throw a powerful punch in Chidoru's direction but Chidoru manages to catch in his hand. Which of course surprises Dragon Soul that he is able to do, but also due to the fact that his arm is starting to feel really cold. He then sees that his entire arm is being covered in ice coming from Chidoru's hand as he gives off a menacing glare. Chidoru then proceeds to use his other arm to punch into Dragon Soul's frozen one which breaks the ice off but also breaks the arm itself. And since Dragon Soul's arm is broken too, Will's arm ends up getting broken as well in the process. Chidoru laughs at seeing both of them get damaged. "That's a special ability I developed after learning how to use my body's energy or "Ki" as you Earthlings apparently call it! All of your melee attacks are useless against me. And it seems that friend of your's is connected which means I might have to take out too for the price of one. Besides the more time we waste here then the quicker those asteroids that are in still in trajectory toward Earth hit Satan City and we can bleed this planet try to the very last resource!" Chidoru boasted. Will sighed as he told Dragon Soul that he'll to leave and he'll handle the rest himself. Will then got out a special green bean from a bag. A legendary healing bean that he got from a strange market place along with that good luck charm he got. He splits one in half just in case Atreus needs one later. And eats one of the two halves of the Senzu Bean and suddenly his arm is fully healed instantly and he has gotten all of his energy back. He begins flexing his arm and moving it around testing to see if it works just like it's supposed to and doesn't bend in any weird ways or anything. Chidoru is shocked upon seeing Will's injury instantly healing and his power level suddenly go up and is rising and the small furry Earthling is suddenly has a power level leagues above his. Beads of sweat fall from his face. Where did that Earthling get that strange miracle plant he just ate he got from that bag he thought. Stepping back in an attempt to fly back into one of the Attack Balls and leave Will appears behind him in a flash. "Not trying to leave are you?" Will asked. Right when Chidoru turns his head around he ends up getting kicked in the face and launched across the wasteland like a bullet. Will then starts speeding to in front of Chidoru's path of trajectory and keeps punting him around as if it was a real life pinball machine. Will then finished off his combo with a double axe handle launching him into the wasteland ground creating a crater upon impact. Will then flew downwards to strike the alien farther down into the ground and for the knockout blow. Chidoru gets up groggily and tries to shoot at Will with his special ring that works as a special laser gun which the legendary Freeza Force member Sorbet did who died alongside Freeza during his second resurrection and his second invasion of Earth. It manages to work and it hits Will with the laser piercing through him and he ends up getting knocked off course and falls away from the crater. Chidoru then gets up and starts aiming at Will again but Will gets up no problem as if he wasn't injured at all. "Your aim seems to be worse then how you fight. You didn't even hit any of my vital organs. Not even one of my useless ones like my appendix." Will said. "All of them?! I missed every single one of your organs?!" Chidoru screamed in shock. As Will screams and flies toward Chidoru to finish this and Chidoru puts his arms in front of his face in a vain attempt at blocking the strike and closes his eyes preparing for what's to come. Will's attention then turns towards Atreus and the brutality that laid before them. Chidoru, confused that he is still conscious, opens his eyes and then he looks in the direction Will is and then his mouth is agape once more and his look of that at pure terror seeing what the other Earthling is doing and has done to Atreus. Even Will is scared at Atreus' actions as he didn't take him for someone who would go to such lengths when getting angry. And the lengths he are going for are so frightening to Will that even he wouldn't do such things to his worse enemy, hell one would argue that death would be a better fate for Omellt at this point then what Atreus has given him. Chidoru has become so filled with despair that he lost all color of his body and his skin turned completely white and is suddenly covered in wrinkles. It is no similar to when humans rapidly rage in intense moments of stress such as this. All he can do now is think of his options. Should he grab the small Earthling while he is distracted and use him as a hostage so that the human one won't kill him, should he get into one of the Attack Balls and run back to the spaceship and try to extort another planet out of money, or should just even give up and turn himself in or even kill himself right now. At this point his is heavily considering the third option, but then he notices Will's bag of that special healing plant he ate earlier dangling off of his belt while he is looking at Atreus. Chidoru then swiped the Senzu Bean while Will is distracted and while Will runs toward Atreus after he has powered down after finishing the fight, and Chidoru himself then runs toward one of the Attack Balls and gets in and puts in the coordinates back to his spaceship. Chidoru has made his decision, he is gonna go back to his spaceship and leave, get some scientists to study these plants, and once they figured out how they work and a way to make more of them then he is gonna sell them and they'll be rich. He could be able to make enough money that he would be able to make his own Planet Trade Order or Freeza Force after all. Chidoru Corps. sounds like it would have a nice ring to it he thought. He takes a breath of relief as he thinks that the nightmare is finally over. Back on the ground Will gets to Atreus. "Atreus there is still some asteroids heading towards Satan City. I know you're out of energy, but luckily I still have this." Will said. He then got his out the other half of the Senzu Bean. "This is called a Senzu Bean, well it's half of one anyway. It's a special plant that was grown by a legendary being called Korin. I got some beans and seeds from this nice merchant woman in this strange shop and been growing some myself. I also have others in this bag he-" Will says but then stops as he pats the place where his bag was and keeps patting around himself to find where his bag has gone. He then realizes that the alien he was facing earlier must've taken it while he was distracted. Most likely plans to make money off of those too considering how greedy he is. "Atreus, you go take care of the meteors. There is one more fish left that needs frying." Will said. Will flies off in the direction he can sense the energy signature from the alien he was fighting earlier. Did he get his name, he can't remember to be sure but it doesn't matter anyway cause this guy is now screwed. Also it seems that the Attack Ball is a lot slower apparently cause the dent and damage from the impact. Will then flies to it and punches through the Attack Ball breaking half of it and grabs the Senzu Beans out of Chidoru's hands. He then flies off in a vain attempt to get away from Will. Tired of seeing this guy be such a coward, Will decides to end things quickly and prepares another Kamehameha. He sways his arms, cups them together, says the words, starts charging up the energy through his arms into his hands. And then releases it all once. Chidoru flies away and notices the big blue light coming towards him. He tries to fly faster then to it outrun but he ends up being enveloped by it as he puts his arms out in front of him and screams. As the beam dissipates Chidoru still stood in midair albeit badly burned, his clothes and armor mostly burnt off, and even his hair tendril tentacle thing on his head is completely vaporized. He then drops like a rock towards the ground and starts twitching and foam starts pouring out of his mouth. Will lands down next to the alien and looks at the sad sight. "A coward to the end. The physical damage is bad enough since his body is permanently scarred from the burns, but the mental damage he has taken a toll on his mind and will be with him for the rest of his life. I guess everything that happened was too much for him to bear. Now he has completely snapped." Will said. Word Count: 1604 Total Word Count: 7,136 Tag: Atreus

Atreus, somewhat numbly, accepted the bean from Will. He ate it instantly, feeling strength and vitality surge back into his exhausted muscles. It wasn't every day that he went teleporting back and forth across the solar system, and it took a lot out of him. The effect this bean had was similar to the nanite repair that Friday could perform on Atreus, and in a matter of moments, he was physically ready to go. Mentally was another story, however. This was hardly the first time he had gone to a dark place. He had fought before... he had killed before. But this was the first time that he had ever tortured. The largest part of him was sick to his stomach... but another part of him, one that was growing stronger every day, whispered that this was necessary. That there were certain evils in the universe that could not be shown mercy, that had to be shown strength and ruthlessness. And the entire time, Arsaphes whispered in his head that what he had done was right and just. Clambering to his feet, Atreus watched as Will took off after the space craft. Atreus had to trust that Will would be able to deal with that, because he had to mop up the remaining foes. They approached him cautiously, having seen the feats of strength that Atreus and Will were capable of. Atreus could have engaged them all in combat again... but there was perhaps a way to use his earlier violent excess to end this conflict without any further bloodshed. Atreus transformed once again, unlocking his Godspeeed form. Faster than any of the minions can see, he moved over to the prostrate, unconscious form of Omellt. The hulking man easily lifted up the helpless Omellt by the neck, and held him out in front, pointing towards the rest of the soldiers. Then, he spoke. "You could take your shot. There are enough of you that you might even get a hit or two in. But you won't win. I did this to the strongest of you. By my estimation, none of you have even a half of Omellt's pathetic strength. That means that you have two choices for how this can go down. You can attack me... but with so many, I don't know if I can be as gentle as I was with him. See, I've been fighting all day, and that makes me tired. You might think that makes me easy pickings... but you couldn't be more wrong."Atreus stepped forward them, and under the force of his step, the ground around him began to crack and shatter. "See, I feel like I live in a world made of cardboard. Every day, I have to restrain myself, go slow and careful, or someone will get hurt. Someone will die. And the more tired I get... the less control I have. So you can all try to come at me in the hopes that I'll simply run out of stamina... but more likely than not, I won't be able to pull one of my kicks and I'll tear your head off on accident.
So that's your choice. You can try to fight me, but I can't make any promises that I won't maim or kill every one of you. Or, you can surrender. I can find a nice prison cell for you to occupy... and you will get to keep on living. The choice is yours."For a moment, for one glorious, still moment, Atreus thought that he had gotten through to them. That he would actually be able to end the day without hurting anyone else. There was fear in most of their eyes... But one of them was just too stupid. A purple skinned alien, clad in armor, charged. Atreus closed his eyes tightly for a moment, hating what this fool was making him do. It struck high. Atreus struck forward with a spear hand, and, as he had promised, was too tired to properly pull his blow. The creature died instantly, blood flowing both from the massive wound Atreus had put in it's torso and from it's mouth, it's organs destroyed. Grim faced, Atreus drew his arm back, using his free hand to hold the alien in place. It slid off him, making a grotesque noise as Atreus couldn't stop himself from accidentally disemboweling the pitiful creature. Eventually, it hit the ground, almost in two pieces. All of the others were silent. "I warned you," Atreus said quietly. "Don't push me. Don't make me to that again. Please."Whether it was out of fear for their lives, or some shred of their own basic decency remained that recognized Atreus' unspoken plea, that they not make him sully his own soul further by taking their lives, the others surrendered. Atreus had no device to properly restrain powerful ki users, so instead, he kept a vigil on them. He put a call in to Earth's military; Colonel Mustang was a man he had worked with before, one who understood the world of ki users. There was, however, no time to wait for them. Asteroids were still en route to Earth. Atreus summoned Friday, who unleashed a small cloud of nanites, which dissipated, several nanites each the size of a bacteria cell entering into each of the remaining soldiers. "There," said Atreus, "I've just ensured that I can track you, anywhere you go. Sit tight, and the authorities will be here soon. Don't... and I will hunt you down, without mercy."Atreus could waste no more time. He could only hope they heeded his threat. The young man wasted no time rocketing into the stratosphere. Another group of meteors descended to Earth, and as Will was dealing with the last of their powerful enemies, Atreus called upon his waning stamina and in a burst of power, ended the current threat to the Earth, vaporizing the meteors that threatened to damage his beloved planet. Sighing wearily, and allowing himself to fall out of his transformation, Atreus descended making his way back to where he had left the battlefield. Before long, soldiers had arrived with dampening collars and powerful shackles, and the surviving soldiers had been taken into custody. Miraculously, all of them had stayed, and Friday's nanites left their bodies and were reabsorbed into Atreus' bloodstream. Atreus gave a full report to Colonel Mustang. Both of them were concerned about the danger that Earth had been in, and Mustang resolved to have Earth develop better detection and warning systems for the future. After all was said and done, Atreus made his way over to Will. Atreus had washed himself of the gore and grit of battle, and he inclined his head to Will respectfully. "I'm sorry you had to see me like that. I don't like that... I hate having to be that violent, to go to that dark a place. Time was, I thought I could protect Earth and save everyone and still be the man I thought I was. But I was wrong. I'm not that good a man. I'll kill... and if it's for the greater good, I won't lose sleep over it. That's why I'm glad I'm not the only one protecting Earth. I'm glad there are ones like you... ones that are surprised when people like me have to go to that excess. I don't think I'm unnecessary, not by a long shot. But I don't think I can be the inspiration I once hoped to be. I guess I'm going to have to leave that to people like you. Still, I hope you know that if the Earth is ever in trouble, or if you need anything, you can count on me."Atreus would then offer his hand to Will. Hopefully, the cat would shake it. Atreus would then smile and wave as he ascended into the sky. "And hey, that was kind of a cool move! The Kamehameha, huh? Keep doing what you're doing, Will. You and Dragon Soul both. It does me a lot of good to know that while I'm doing things I wouldn't be proud to tell my mom, but that have to be done to keep our world safe, there's people like you out there that others can look to for hope. Look me up if you ever need help!"And with that, Atreus streaked away, his aura blazing across the sky, to rest, and to ponder.

The soldiers Will taken out from earlier were a bit stronger than the ones that were inside the spaceship. And cause of Will being weakened one hit to each of them wasn't enough to knock them down at least for a long while as they manage to regain consciousness and they first thing they see is the human Earthling standing and one of their leaders, Omellt, knocked down in a sorry state. They try in vain to sneak up on Atreus to catch him by surprise, but due to the fact he could sense their prescience and many other factors he could sense them. They then stopped as Atreus suddenly disappeared from their vision and they looked around them holding Omellt by the neck. Stepping towards them with an ominous warning and a deadly glare. All but one of the soldiers got the message as stepped back. But one was brave enough, but mostly stupid enough, to not back down. A purple skinned fish like alien wearing armor and a scouter. His species reproduces asexually and he was descended from Cui a Freeza elite from long ago who was rumored to be as strong as the Saiyan Prince himself. However, this one is stronger then the Cui from long ago and it went to this soldier's head making him believe and think that nothing could beat him. Even after powering up in a boost of rage and rushing towards Atreus from behind, it was a futile effort. As the foolish man life was taken in an instant like a birthday candle flame being blown out with a simple breath. All the other soldiers were already gonna surrender but now they have no regrets for surrendering. They even begin to dwell on every horrible thing they did for the Freeza Force and begin to regret that too if it led up to this horrifying display. What they just witnessed will be burned into their skulls like a scar and would never leave their mind. They now know that this planet seemingly filled with weaklings is not filled with monsters that likes of the universe haven't seen. Perhaps even bigger threats then the Saiyans themselves. The soldiers willing let themselves be cuffed and the Earth's military managed to also get a spaceship out to capture the ones still on Saturn's belt. Will came flying back with Chidoru in tow who is still burnt to a crisp and comatose. He looks upon the sight of what happened and his eyes catch the corpse of the one Atreus killed earlier. Atreus really must've lost control of his emotions and was unable to pull back from not killing any of them. He then tosses Chidoru to one of the military dudes who puts on a Ki dampening collar on him and they lift him up onto a gurney to stroll him into one of the vans they brought over. "Hey I know Atreus has done work for us before and Colonel Mustang knows him well but should we be okay with this cat dude taking down these guys too? I mean it's technically vigilantism and that's illegal so shouldn't we like arrest him or something?" one soldier asked. "You want to arrest the guy who did that to a Freeza Force elite?" the other soldier asked pointing to the burnt comatose body of Chidoru who is foaming at the mouth. After a stunned silence and a wide eyed stare the first soldier says "Point taken." and goes about his business. Will then sees Atreus who inclines his head in respect in which Will gives back the same gesture. "I know what you mean Atreus. I agree that sometimes it is right to kill someone if they endanger the lives of many. But yet we must not let our emotions lose control and take hold of our actions. Not to say emotions are a bad thing. It's okay to laugh, cry, and even get angry now and then. But yet anger and hatred lead into a cycle of even more anger and hatred. Similar to how violence brings upon more violence. And yet in this world we live in violence is usually the only answer. But I do it only to protect those that can't protect themselves as that is the way of the Turtle School. I know that someday I might lose control of my emotions too like you had and might even lose myself in the process and I am not sure whether it be temporarily or a permanent change. It's just an odd feeling I have. And it's great to not only see another Earthling out there who surpassed their limits but is also out there protecting people. I am a part of a group called the Z Force whose duty is to protect Earth. Perhaps one day I can introduce you to them." Will said. Will of course is humbled by Atreus complementing the Kamehameha. He hopes that someday he would be able to teach others the same move too. He waves back at Atreus as he leaves. With this ordeal over Will then wonders what he should do next. He wants to say go grab a bite to eat or something somewhere but the Senzu Bean also makes a person full for a long time so Will is good on that department. Maybe he can find a nice quiet place to meditate and reflect on what happened. So he can learn from this experience and grow even stronger. Word Count: 917 Total Word Count: 8,053 Tag: Atreus
