No sooner had the Saiyan spoken then everyone was suddenly enveloped with a flash of light. None of them had time to even throw up the slightest defense before it overtook them. All Reijin could think was ?Great. So there WAS a trap.?
It took him a few minutes before his eyes finally began adjusting to the darkness around himself. He hadn?t had a chance to gain his bearings yet, and he could only see dark forms moving about around him. Reijin decided that he?d simply listen to voices until his eyes could fully acquaint themselves with the lack of light. Off to the side, he heard a few voices that he couldn?t recognize. He tried to act unconscious, not knowing if these were fighters of Brim?s pay or what.
Suddenly he saw a spark of light. His eyes finally adjusted as he saw Raditzu standing next to Bojack, both of them smoking cigars. He was caught a bit off guard. Was Bojack turning on them and joining with Ragnarok? ?How about you come with me? Maybe we?ll save the world or something.? Those words flowed with Rad?s voice in them.
?Really??
?No. But we do have a winter cottage.? The flowing mane of the Saiyan seemed to shake furiously as he laughed a bit. Finally, he inhaled deeply on the cigar as Bojack smiled.
?I always was a sucker for romantic excursions.?
Reijin couldn?t believe what he was hearing. Bojack was leaving them for Ragnarok. He turned to his side and found Vejita next to him. He attempted to speak, but then Vejita began to run his head. ?You?ve got to be kidding me,? he mumbled. ?Let me guess, they teleported us again??
?More than likely. It appears that all the fighters from the beginning are here, minus a few hands full.? Reijin could only reply with what he knew. He finally just decided that Bojack could do whatever pleased him the most. He cared not. Next time, Reijin would not be healing him. Next time, if it came to it, he?s simply finish what he had started on Dante.
Another voice attracted his attention nearby. "Where I go I do not know. The road that lies ahead of me is dark and full of vengance. You are both my friends and my trusted alliance companions. Whom I would entrust with my life. To whom I shall always answer your call and stand true. Stand as one of you. Forever allied to you here and forever more. Know now if I fail, to where ever I head to. I just wanted you to know that.? Reijin saw Bebi walking up to them, babbling like a madman. The Saiyan was never quite sure on the mental state of the creature that they had found themselves allied with, but before he could speak a word about how Bebi was sticking by them while the Ader wasn?t, Bebi simply turned and walked away.
Reijin and Vejita shared a look. ?What was that about?? Reijin could do nothing but shrug in response to Vejita?s question.
Suddenly, Reijin clasped his ears as an unholy screech from hell filled the chambers, attracting the attention of everyone within. ?I?ll KILL him!? Reijin looked over and saw a very angry young girl. He had seen her once before on Dante, while he was inside of a healing chamber, but had never truly spoken with her. She was very beautiful, for a halfbreed Saiyan. He could see silky aqua hair hanging around her shoulders, and her very presence emanated both a beauty and sleek power that could not be denied. Reijin smirked a bit. She was acting just as she had been when he had seen her on Dante, except this time her eyes were soaked with tears. Tears of rage.
?Are you stupid?? Raditzu had walked up to her threateningly, throwing his arms in the air in frustration. Reijin was curious as to what they were talking about, and slowly began to walk towards them.
?This is none of your business, you cocky prick!? Truer words had never been spoken in Reijin?s presence and he found it rather hilarious.
?You really think you can succeed where Burter failed?!? Reijin wasn?t sure what Raditzu was talking about now, as he had no idea who Burter was. ?He was an experienced, powerful, battle-hardened warrior and you?re just a pissed off little the girlt.?
Reijin looked to Vejita, ready to say something light about the situation, when he noticed his Prince was deep in thought, a very somber look adorning his face. Reijin decided better to not say a word.
?What was that?? The younger woman stepped toward Rad, seemingly indifferent to massive power difference between them.
?You heard me. How many times did that stupid reptile have to come to your rescue? Or get you out of a tight spot?? Rad closed the distance with her a bit more threateningly. ?You fucked things up when he was around! What do you think you?ll be able to do now that he?s gone??
Vejita made a sound of anger from nearby. ?You know he?s lost his fucking mind.? Reijin gave him a glance, now as curious about Vejita?s stance on this as he was regarding the argument. The entire prison cell had grown quite, save for another smaller argument off to the side.
?He?s not gone! He?s died before and we?ve brought him back!? she screamed in denial.
?Are you stupid or something!? Look around. Where is he? Sense him anywhere? Need a scouter?? Raditzu removed his own scouter and thrust it into her face with great exaggeration, laughing at her loss. She slapped his hand away, sending the scouter rolling.
?Watch it.? Two words sent chills to most of the room.
?Or what? You?ll get mad? Do you really think I?m afraid of a little girl like you?? Reijin noticed Vejita begin to slowly walk forward at this.
?You stupid, arrogant piece of sh??
?Shut up!? Raditzu yelled, interrupted the girl.
Vejita began to step forward again, but Reijin grabbed him by the shoulder. Apparently he knew more of this girl than Reijin did. Vejita yelled at them, but his yell was drowned out by more furious quarreling.
The girl simply crossed her arm, and gave a very Saiyan-like smirk, very similar to the type that Reijin and Vejita employed regularly. ?Or else what? Hmm??
The sharp sound was something that penetrated even the deepest of warrior?s to the very center of their being. Raditzu withdrew his hand, as she hit the floor hard, and then returned her smirk. ?Or I?ll shut you up!? Reijin slightly widened his eyes. Rad had slapped the girl.
Nearly before hitting the ground, the girl was upon him, fists swinging furiously in uncontained anger. Before any true damage could be done, Reijin saw Uub grab her from behind, hoisting her up and pulling her away. He received assistance from another, and then he stepped in between the two, shooting Raditzu a look. ?That?s enough, Rad. You didn?t have to be so harsh.?
?Tch? when the truth really sinks in, that?ll feel like nothing.? Rad pointed at a smaller reptilian creature, and then said some things that Reijin could not hear from his present location. Finally, Rad peered around Uub?s shoulder at the girl, and prodded her once more. ?You think Brim would hesitate to wipe you out of existence? Or any of us? You think Burter would be happy if you got yourself eradicated? Is that what he died for?? Rad made a point of speaking loudly enough to attract the attention of all in the room. ?You guys can sit around all you want. I?m going to try and find a way out of here.?
Reijin saw Vejita close in the distance between he and Rad very quickly. ?I think you made a mistake.?
Raditzu spoke slowly and dangerously. ?Excuse me??
Vejita refused to back down. ?I meant about Bra. You must have made a mistake. Obviously you?ve lost your mind and thought she was me or something. Allow me to jog it back into place for you.? Mirroring the earlier slap, Vejita?s fist collided with the titan?s jaw.
Rad took one step back, and then gave him a look of blood. ?God damnit! What the hell is wrong with you??
The Prince of all Saiyans took a prideful stance. ?Still don?t get it?? Vejita was instantly sent reeling from the blow Rad sent his way.
?I get it just fine. You?re too worried about your own personal vendetta to think twice about you? tch? forget it.? Raditzu?s aura enveloped him and he tightened his fists coldly. ?It would just be a waste of breath.?
A sharp nod from Vejita showed this to be fact. ?At least we agree on that much.? He motioned toward his apparent rival. Reijin was curious, as he didn?t know that Vejita and Raditzu had even known each other, much less had some form of rivalry going. ?Warm up??
Raditzu spat openly and then gave him a look. ?You sure you wanna be embarrassed in front of your kids like this??
A great fiery glow lit the prison cell as Vejita?s aura surrounded him. ?Silence, you peon!?
?Oh, would you quit with the ?peon? bullshit?? Both of their golden streaked bodies began to crackle with energy, their hair rising in unison in an attempt to touch the sky. ?You?re just pissed because you can?t measure up to someone like me.?
The two began to fight in earnest, exchanging blows and words frequently. Reijin kept his ears open for any form of information that he could gather from them, but he decided to stay out of the fight. It seemed that Vejita could handle him on his own. After what felt like hours, though it was only a couple of minutes into the fight, two dual displays turned on behind them in the prison walls.
Reijin noticed that two other fighters that he had not seen before were also going at it in the other corner, but all stopped when the monitors came on. "Hello," the figure that all had come to recognize as Brim greeted them. Reijin could see bandages covering him, and a few swollen bruises. His face was as serious as it could get. "As I'm sure you all have heard, I have challenged your reptilian friend to a dual to the death, and I won. The battle has taken it's toll on me, as you can see." He gave a small smile. "I programmed Burter's collar to disallow him to exist when I killed him. I am sure you will be happy to hear this: I didn't kill him."
A few members of the prison cell began to talk amongst themselves while others simply made angry noises. Reijin simply waited for the punchline. He wasn?t sure who Burter was, but from what he gathered, the guy was well liked. "Burter killed himself at the last moment. He is still alive, somewhere out there. He did not go back to Arlia; but he is somewhere. I assure you, your lizard friend is still in this universe. Now, I know many of you want to battle me. I'm aware...but whether you like it or not, this is still my show, and this is still my game. You will play, simple as that."
Bebi was nearby once more, and could be heard audibly as he exclaimed ?We'll see about that..."
Then Brim gave a disarming smile. The kind of smile that was usually something Reijin did not want to see. "Things are being prepared for the game to continue. Until then, I will grant you this. If you have some frustration to let out, you can! Any fights will be taken into the gladiator dome, part of this building, where you can dual. Be warned: death can and probably will occur there." These words were spoken as the screens once again went dark, and everyone began to stir once more.
Reijin turned back towards Vejita, but suddenly Vejita and Raditzu vanished. A few cries erupted on the other side of the room as well. Then they were all teleported as well, being transported from cell to cell as an open display of power. Reijin found it a bit disorienting. He shook his head, but walked forward to see that they were once again in a cell, but this time instead of darkness in the distance, through the bars he could see an open arena. Down below he saw the earlier fighters, already preparing themselves for battle. Suddenly two other forms that Reijin did not recognize were hurtled towards the arena.
Reijin leaned against the left wall and slid down to a seated position as he looked down towards the fights. He could really do nothing more than watch. Everyone below seemed to have some form of history together, and Reijin was intending on asking about it later. He could see the aqua haired girl nearby, still in the prison cell. His eyes narrowly looked towards a form that was standing near her? He was familiar, but Reijin wasn?t quite sure as to? Trunks. The memory sparked in his mind and he snapped his fingers with a smile. The kid that seemed to think that everything was personal. It was truly a terrible thing to have to go through life constantly under the impression that everyone hated and despised you for personal reasons. Apparently Bra was this guy?s sister, from the similarities that Reijin now saw between them.
He turned and looked out through the bars. ?That means that they are both Vejita?s children?? he muttered to himself. What a tangled web they had woven indeed. Trunks had apparently not noticed him yet, and Reijin preferred to simply watch the fight. He had a feeling that if Trunks walked over, that they would end up below in a battle as well, and Reijin would then learn nothing from observing.
A loud sound erupted from inside of the chambers. Reijin turned suddenly, groaning a bit. How many of these people hated each other? Then he saw the fading form of Yamu lying on the ground, apparently dead. The youth was caught a bit off guard, as he knew how capable of a fighter Yamu was. The reptilian creature was standing over him, apparently saddened by this event.
