“So, you’re going to ask him first, before wishing him back?” you ask Izzy and Tapion as you stretch a little, taking your stance as you stare down Videl.

“Baba was able to arrange for this, feels fair to at least ask. Plus she mentioned something about wanting to test something she saw in me the other day. So, hey, worth a shot.” Izzy replies, Pantea nodding alongside her.

Videl leaps at you, trying for an elbow strike you’re able to duck under and retaliate with a leg sweep, one she’s able to jump above and back away. A feinted chop has you dodging a quick-fired Ki blast from her, backing up a bit. She glances at Tapion. “You sure you’ll be back in time?” she asks Izzy directly.

“Time for what?” Gohan questions, walking in with mom.

“It’s the last day of practice for Cocoa’s play. We were invited to come watch.” you tell your brother, deflecting another of Videl’s Ki blasts.

“As if I’d miss capturing the look on your face when you see a certain someone in costume~” Izzy teases. Both you and Videl glare at her as you spar, multitasking your training with your clear look of disapproval directed at her. “...Oh come now. Joking.” Under her breath she adds, “Mostly.” As mom gives... an odd but silent look, Izzy thinks to ask, “You sure you don’t want to come with, Peppa? We won’t be long, promise.”

“Wasn’t really planning on it. What do you say, Videl?” you ask your friend as you slash at her with your tail, the girl dodging by jumping upwards and trying to hit you with a dropkick.

As you step away, Videl tries to chop at you, with you blocking quickly. She smirks. “I’m good. Take care, Pantea.”

“You too, Videl.” the purple-haired girl replies with a friendly wave. With all of that set, mom teleports them away, leaving you and Videl to continue your sparring match outside Capsule Corp.

Continuing on for a bit, your mind recalls something, and you tell Videl, “Thanks again.”

“For?” she asks as the two of you trade blows.

“Keeping the paparazzi off my back that night. I owe you big time for that.” You catch her fist and try to throw her over your shoulder, only for Videl to correct herself mid-air and grab on to your arm and toss you instead.

“You’d do the same for me, right? Besides, I kinda owed ya for before.” she responds with a sweet smile as you flip and land on your feet. “Anyway. You’re Champ now, but you’re definitely back in the routine of trying to improve. What’re you aiming for next, Peppa?”

>A. I need to master Super Saiyan 3, be able to use it with as little strain as possible
>B. I want to improve my fundamentals a bit more, try to improve at my base and see if I can draw out more of my strength without transforming
>C. I think I need some new techniques. What you and Teach managed to show off in the Tournament was cool, makes me want to try out a few new things myself

“Actually, it’s a twofold thing.” you reply, taking your stance again. “I’d like to improve my fundamentals some more, work on getting stronger in base and drawing out more strength without transforming, but... I don’t want this to be just about me. I saw what Gohan and Izzy did together, finally putting an end to Hirudegarn. It was great to see, even if I got blasted away before I could really leave a mark on the monster. So... I want to help others improve.” You dash at her and trade blows once more, putting a little bit more force behind each punch and kick. “You got me to achieve Super Saiyan 3, after all. It’s only fair that I help others reach new heights in return. I know you can break your limits, Videl. And I’ll do what I can to help you, and everyone else who needs it, too.”

She puts a bit more into her attacks as you push harder. “Don’t think I can do it on my own?” she asks teasingly.

“I know that both of us will get stronger the more we push ourselves. It’s not that I doubt you, it’s more that training together will give way better results than trying things solo.” You try the Jan Ken against her, Videl blocking each strike. “Even Vegeta’s started realizing that.”

“Heh, that’s what I wanna hear.” Her aura flares around her. “So come on, Peppa, let’s break our limits!”

The two of you continue, and after an exhausting sparring session, finally take some time to relax by the pond at Capsule Corp. You lay on your back, looking up at the bright blue sky. “Say, what’s your dad been up to, anyway?” you ask Videl.

“He wanted Teach to come to Satan Castle for a bit to help his students. They’ve been getting a little... complacent recently. He thought they needed something to get them to try harder.” she replies, taking a sip of lemonade. “Well... we’ve got about 40 minutes before it starts. Anything you wanted to do before? Aside from get a quick shower.”

>A. Weeeeell... when’s the last time you went shopping, Videl?
>B. Should be enough time to get a few rounds of Smash in. Betcha I can beat my previous record~

“Nah. Quick shower, and then we head on down there. Cocoa’s been working hard on this, and I wanna make sure we’re there to support her. No distractions!” You leap to your feet and start heading towards Capsule Corp. You and Videl walk past the area under reconstruction, spotting Baragon help mom’s camels affix a the support structure for some of the missing floor area, and then make it to one of the building’s many guest bathrooms.

Once you and Videl have showered and changed into some more casual clothes, though, you’re greeted by... Giru? “HELLO MEATBAGS!” the alien robot states, waving to the both of you. Oh great Gohan was right. Izzy what did you do...? “Observed the two of you training earlier, Giru, Giru! Ki signatures increased by a noticeable amount compared to where you started!”

“...Yeah. That’s how training works.” Videl tells it.

The robot beeps softly. “Increase was above previous calculations! Requesting permission to observe human and Tuffle interactions to understand the nature of such increase!”

“...That’s how training works.” Videl repeats, rolling her eyes. “Maybe you’re just underestimating us.”

“Your resting Ki from start to finish increased by 1.8%! Son Peppa’s increased by 1.5%! Giru, Giru. Outside normal calculations of 0.5%!” The robot beeps excitedly. “Requesting permission to observe increase discrepancy!”

Huh. That much in only a couple hours? Bah, no, focus. “Giru, we were going to visit one of our friends, she’s got a school play coming up. We’re done training for right now.”

“GIRU! GIRU! Requesting permission to observe Human-Tuffle social interactions! Wish to observe more Earth culture!”

Videl rubs the back of her neck and looks to you.

>A. As long as you’ll be quiet
>B. Nnnnno. You stay here
>C. ...Were you observing us while we were showering too?
>D. Something else?

>>3328918

>>3329026

>>3329026
>C. ...Were you observing us while we were showering too?
>Then again, not as invasive as living in a house where everyone can sense what you're doing all the time.

>>3329026

>>3329123

You cross your arms and glare at the little robot. “As long as you PROMISE to stay quiet when it’s happening, and do nothing to interrupt, then I guess you can tag along.” You lean down at Giru. “Is that clear?”

“GIRU GIRU GIRU GIRU GIRU!” it beeps out thankfully, running around both you and Videl excitedly.

You grab the robot and bring it to your face. “Which means none of this.”

“Affirmative! Giru, Giru.” It then becomes... oddly silent.

Videl looks to it uneasily. “Well... if you’re sure about this, Peppa.”

“Let’s get going.” You walk out the front door with Videl, Giru floating close behind. You both take to the sky, flying casually as you observe the streets below. Along your way you notice that bank you stopped a robbery at, laughing a little as you recall it. Videl tilts her head. “Something up?”

“Nah, just remembering the last time I took this route. Launch wasn’t too happy about my attempt to be a costumed superhero, but she was rather lenient and let me off the hook. Heh, and then she has another officer watch over me and Cocoa when we investigated the movie studio, trying to find that ninja...” You spot Cocoa’s school and... speak of the devil. There’s... Officer Tomato, outside with a few other cops, and what looks like most of the people involved in Cocoa’s play. What the...?

https://youtu.be/1q5RpBl3SY0

Touching down with Videl nearby, you both approach, catching wind of the conversation. “...looked everywhere, but the last few costumes still haven’t been found, along with... the other missing items. We’d have never picked up on this if it weren’t for one of our students noticing someone suspicious.” a lady with brown hair, probably one of the teachers at the school, tells the officer.

Akai Tomato flips the page on her notepad. “Do you have any idea who might’ve done this?” Noticing you approach, she gives you a nod. “Hey kid.”

“Peppa! Videl! Oh thank goodness you’re here!” Cocoa calls out to you. “It’s terrible! Someone’s made off with some of the most expensive costumes!”

“More than just the costumes.” a blonde girl behind her comments, pouting and moving awkwardly, shivering a little. With her a black-haired boy with glasses and a taller fox boy with green fur and a hat.

“We found one of the culprits before they ran off, but the most expensive costumes are still missing.” Cocoa explains. Awkwardly, she adds, “...Along with a lot of the school’s... gym clothes.”

>A. We’re on the case! Right Videl?
>B. But... why? Why would the do that?

“Officer Tomato, is there any way we can help with this?” you ask the police woman.

“Probably.” She looks over her notes, then glances at you and Videl. “Hmm... Launch is busy with Hopps busting those car thieves... eh, sure. Could use a bit more muscle.” She points her pen at you and winks. “Especially from little miss World Champ here.”

You rub the back of your neck bashfully, then glance at Videl. “We are on the case! Right?”

“Right! Heh, should be a bit different from my stuff over at Orange Star City.” She crosses her arms confidently. “So, let’s start from the top.”

https://youtu.be/WBuJxRQIxJQ

“Who’s the culprit you did manage to catch?” you ask.

Akai nods her head in the direction of a pig person who looks like a younger Oolong. “Some folks trying to make a quick buck, I’d say.”

“Quick buck nothing, they stole our... our...! Mmmhh!” the blonde girl protests, stomping her feet.

“Guys from the Southern Transformation Academy.” the green fox boy adds in calmly. “Shapeshifters like me.” He demonstrates by changing his appearance with a puff of magical smoke, copying the appearance of the black-haired boy, then a tall young man with long green hair, then his own self but with black fur, before finally transforming back.

Videl pinches the ridge of her nose. “Ugh. Great. Just great. Do you know where they’ve headed?”

“That’s the thing, nobody’s been able to find where they went.” the black-haired boy responds, adjusting his glasses. “It was our luck Cocoa was able to spot the one hiding, pretending to be a garbage can.”

“...Why would they be doing this?” you ask.

“School rivalries.” Akai Tomato tells you, flipping her paper over. “That’s my bet.” The teacher with her, while not saying it, clearly agrees.

“What all is missing, exactly?” Videl asks.

“The Princess Kaguya dresses, the Emperor Costume, and a... um...” Cocoa blushes a little.

“Several of the girls’ gym shorts, and some pairs of underwear.” Officer Tomato finishes. The blonde girl hides her face, shaking her head.

>A. Hmm... if one was trying to hide as a garbage can, maybe the rest are still in the area!
>B. Best to plan out the scenes of the crimes, see who could have come in and how they could have escaped
>C. Cocoa, did you sense anyone odd when you started to arrive for practice? Besides the garbage pig?
>D. Something else?

>>3329451
Ask the shapeshifter kid how the technique works.

Is there any ki control to it or anything we can pick out when someone transforms?

We actually as a whole don't know much about the technique. like I doubt Maple knows much about it too.

You look over to the green fox kid. “Say... if this is the work of shapeshifters, I’ve got a question. Could you transform again, real quick?”

He shrugs and nods, transforming with another puff of magical smoke to... look like you. But as he does, you pay careful attention to his Ki, as well as using your nose to keep track of his scent. While slightly different from how he is normally, you know for sure that his Ki doesn’t match your own. What’s more, his scent is masked slightly, but still is recognizably different, especially since you’ve just taken a shower. You then think about Churai and the differences when she tried to replace Yamcha. She was clearly better at masking herself than this kid is, but even that wasn’t perfect.

https://youtu.be/4-LfZ00Ef2M

A lead. You give him a thumb’s up and he transforms back. “So... this-” you point your thumb in the direction of the culprit, “-guy was trying to hide as a garbage can, right? Then maybe, just maybe, the rest are in the area still!” You look to Ms. Tomato. “Officer, could we look at the scenes of the crimes with you? Maybe we’ll be able to trace their tracks, see how they entered and exited the area, and potentially catch them before they can make off with the costumes!”

“AND EVERYTHING ELSE THEY STOLE!” the blonde girl adds angrily.

“Y-yeah. That too.” Wow that girl can yell.

“A’iight. Come on.” She guides you and Videl along with her, the teacher following along with Cocoa and her friends. Sectioned off areas and officers keeping watch are around the auditorium, with you recalling your quick little change of clothes a few months ago as you reach the dressing room. “Door was unlocked when they arrived, but not broken into.” Akai states.

“Picked with this.” a dog man comments, showing you a bobby pin. He then looks past you and spots Cocoa and her friends. “...Tomato, you’re not involving civilians again, are you?”

“Witnesses, trying to gather evidence.” she responds dismissively.

“Hmm... any hair on it when you recovered it?” Videl asks.

“Tiny broken strand, but the most I could smell from it was orange-scented shampoo.” he tells her. You approach it and can smell that it does smell slightly of oranges. Hmm. Suspicious.

Videl twirls a finger in one of her pigtails. “Does mean that it was something actually worn... Peppa, I’ll check this area out. Might be best for you to search out for anyone trying to hide in the area.”

“Probably. That okay with you, officer?” you ask. Akai nods, and you start searching, trying to figure if you can spot any escape routes.

Cocoa follows, looking around the school and clearly trying to sense for Ki. “Mmh... you know, the funny thing is I think this eased my nerves just a bit.”

“Yeah?” You spot a janitor mopping up the cafeteria, noticing his Ki... and something else. Something odd. Might be someone else in there. You nod for Cocoa to follow.

“Well... it’s weird, was starting to worry that I’d flub a line or two, but having someone come and steal the costumes... it kinda reinvigorated me. Like, I want to get this done now more than ever. Just to prove that this won’t set us back.”

You giggle softly. “Determined to do your best. That’s the Cocoa I know.”

The two of you enter the cafeteria, a strong pine scent coming off the recently cleaned floors. The janitor warns for you to be careful as they’re still wet in certain places. But... the other Ki signature isn’t near him. It’s deeper inside, near the kitchen. The pine scent is stronger there... but you catch a whiff of something else. And you wince when you do. “AUGH. It’s that bodyspray garbage.”

“I can’t smell anything other than the cleaning fluid, what do you mean?” Cocoa questions.

“You know the boys who put on WAAAY too much of the stuff and it just smells like the absolute worst thing?” you ask her. Cocoa shudders, nodding. “Someone clearly has been using it near here. And it isn’t-” You look in the direction of where you smell it. “...It’s masked under the pine scent, but I think I know why.” You walk closer, sensing a very weak Ki signature. Coming from...

...

A bucket.

Quietly, you ask Cocoa if she can sense that too. She nods. You then glare at it. “Last time I sensed a bucket with Ki it tried to take over the world.”

Cocoa blinks. “What.”

“Majin Ozotto.” You pick it up, turning it around. The bucket... shivers. “Jig is up.”

“AAAAAAAAAA!” it begins to scream, the surprise causing you to drop it. It transforms into a white cat-like animal that looks a bit like Puar with a red scarf, the cleaning fluid inside spilling out as it does. You leap up to avoid getting splashed by it, the cat scurrying away and bolting right past Cocoa... only to reach the wet cafeteria floor and slip, falling face-first and dropping a Capsule as it does. It tries to run again, but Cocoa picks up the Capsule, opening it up and... revealing a box. Filled with gym clothes... most notably, bloomers. And a girl’s underwear... oh wow that’s a really cute pair of panties!

“Peppa! It might have the rest!” she calls out to you, tackling the cat. It tries to run again, but the slippery floor keeps it from getting far, your friend catching it just in time, holding it up by the tail.

>A. Okay, where’re the others, buddy?
>B. Bring him to Officer Tomato, and get the girl her panties back
>C. Cocoa, you take him back, he’s probably alerted the others. I’ll find ‘em myself!

“Cocoa, you take him back ASAP! He’s probably alerted any others!” You float up slightly. “I’ll find ‘em myself!”

“Got it, good luck Peppa!” she replies, running off with the cat.

Okay, so there has to be one more, potentially a girl... hmm. You sense a few weak Ki signatures, agh, but where could they be? Flying around the school grounds a little, you check classrooms, a lounge area... wait! There’s someone headed to the ladies’ restroom! Might be it! You bolt down and head inside!

“AGH!” a girl screams out in surpri- oh. Ohh that’s... the blonde girl. And she has... those panties. “W-what are you doing?!”

“...Did you see anyone suspicious headed this way?” you ask, looking away.

“No!”

“Sorry! Sorry!” you exclaim, running out and looking around. Craaap crap crap where could they be now?

‘Peppa, found ‘em! Head out north-west!’ Videl contacts you.

“GOT IT!” You bolt up into the sky again and head out, flying past a treeline near a baseball diamond and-

...

That tree is magenta.

And is an evergreen.

A tiny one.

“You’ve got nowhere left to run!” Videl calls out, cornering the tree with a bunch of the cops. “Give back the costumes!”

The tree shapeshifts back into a girl with long, magenta hair, the same as the tree, who digs around her pocket, pouting slightly as she pulls out a Capsule... then without warning tosses it towards a pond as she opens it, laughing deviously.

Only for you to swoop down and catch it. It opens up to reveal a fancy-looking kimono on a clothing rack. You float back and present the costume to Cocoa. “Certainly fit for a princess.” you tell her with a wink.

https://youtu.be/wldgoeEL_CQ

“Oh Peppa you are a life saver!” She gives you a tight hug. “That thing would’ve been ruined if it ended up in there.”

“Grrhhhh... I’ll remember this, twerp!” the girl calls out, shaking her fist as the cops move out to her.

You sigh out in relief. “All over then?”

“Looooooks like.” Akai tells you, blowing a bubble with her bubblegum. “So that’s four of ‘em. Trash pig, clumsy cat, the fab boy, and tree girl over there.”

“...Fab boy?” you repeat.

“Videl caught that one.”

You look over and see a boy in a skirt and blouse being escorted away with the others. Huh.

>A. So, what DID they want?
>B. Everything recovered?
>C. Could someone explain why they went for that poor girl’s panties too?
>D. Something else?

Something isn't adding up here, how can she have panties if they stole them?

>>3330340
Either their perverts or their going to sell to perverts, or they have a perverted buyer.

Or someone wanted to sabotage the play?

>A. So, what DID they want?

Looking over at the captured shapeshifters, you have to ask, “So, what DID they want? And more importantly, could someone please explain why they stole that poor girl’s underwear? Was this like, just an attempt to sabotage the play, or...?” Please don’t let there be an “or” here. Please.

“Just like I told ya’ kid. School rivalries.” Akai replies, blowing another bubble with her bubblegum.

“Apparently this group of troublemakers was just doing it as a ‘prank’ on Cocoa’s school here.” Videl explains. “Bad blood between them and a few students of this one. So, they wanted to ruin this special event as much as possible. Wasn’t gonna stop there either. Setting up whoopee cushions in some of the auditorium seats, even a few ink bombs in the props. As for the panties... kind of a different thing. Unintentional theft coinciding with the theft of the bloomers.”

Hhhhuh. “...That sounds unnecessarily elaborate. Why go to all that trouble?”

“Been trying to get back at a Senior in this school for some time now...” Cocoa’s teacher remarks, sighing softly. “At least it’s not as serious as one of their previous prank attempts.”

“Well, everything back in order at least? Still able to get on with the practice?” you ask.

“Thanks to all of you.” Cocoa states, smiling sweetly, hugging the kimono tight.

“We’ll be taking these folks off then. Good luck with your practice and whatever.” Officer Tomato waves to you all, walking off with the delinquents. “Still owe ya a Bloody Mary, kid!”

“When I’m old enough!” you call back to her, laughing.

Videl brings her fist up, grinning at you. “Nice work, Peppa.”

Bumping yours against hers, you compliment her back. “Nice work, Videl.”

Giru finally approaches you. “Interesting display, meatbags! Giru, Giru! This school play was a valuable learning experience in regards to Earth culture!”

You hang your head. “It... hasn’t even started, Giru.”

The alien robot beeps lowly, getting everyone to chuckle. Finally the practice starts in earnest, mom teleporting in with Izzy as you see some of the students’ parents arrive as well, including Cocoa’s mom and dad. And you have to admit, all of them seem to give their best at the practice. You’d never know that they almost had to cancel the whole thing because of the costumes nearly being stolen.

The whole thing takes about 50 minutes, starting off with the Princess (Cocoa) being found inside a bamboo stalk by a poor family (the blonde girl and black-haired boy). The bamboo stalk gives them riches, and time passes showing the princess growing from a little girl into a beautiful young woman, accosted by several suitors. She rejects their offers of marriage by sending them out on impossible tasks, each one failing in their own way, until the Emperor (the green fox boy) becomes enamored with the Princess... and yet he too is declined. Though her reason is finally more direct, blunt:

The Princess is from the moon, and will have to return one day.

The Emperor still showers her with gifts, guards her against those who would take her away, out of compassion, out of jealousy, perhaps both. But his efforts are moot, as the lunar host descends to bring the alien princess back. And once she returns home, she will lose all memory of her time on Earth. In one final act, the Princess thanks her Earth family, and the Emperor who loved her so, giving them parting gifts, and even presenting the Emperor with the gift of... a potion of immortality.

The Emperor rejects the immortality offered to him, for he dared not live an endless but empty life without the woman he loved.

The play ends, the cast taking a bow, to the applause of their parents and the few guests who’d come to watch the practice. You notice... Izzy’s eyes watering up slightly near the end, the girl doing her best not to cry. But... even Giru seemed strangely enamored by the play.

Izzy pats the robot gently. “S-see? Haha, Earth culture’s pretty great, isn’t it?”

“...This play has brought back a memory.” Giru tells you all.

You do a double-take, and you’re not the only one. “What? How?”

“Marginally similar events have allowed fragmented pieces to be pieced together successfully! Giru, Giru!” It beeps a little more enthusiastically.

“Well, can you tell us it?” Izzy asks.

“Memory recovered indicating being sent off from unknown planet, with expectation of return!”

“Wait... you think someone is going to try to come back for you, Giru?” mom asks.

“Highly likely probability! Giru, Giru.”

“You... guys should probably get him to Bulma or something.” Videl states.

Standing up, you stretch a little. “Well, that’s cool you’re finally remembering things, Giru. I’m gonna go talk with Cocoa. She was great!” You hop up and walk off with a slight skip in your step.

Mom seems to look at you awkwardly as you do, but keeps from saying anything. You reach Cocoa rather quickly, the girl finally out of her kimono and back into her casual clothes. “Well? What’d you think?”

“It was so good it made Izzy almost cry. Heck, it was so good it made our lil’ alien robot tagalong remember a bit of his home.”

Cocoa fakes a pout. “You don’t have to butter me up that much, you know. You can just say you liked it.”

“No, seriously, some of Giru’s fragmented memories clicked back into place as he watched it, or something.” you explain. She raises an eyebrow. “Really! You can come look if you want!”

Cocoa laughs and shakes her head. “You dork.”

“I did like it, though. You were great.” you tell her sweetly, tail swaying behind you happily. “Practice has certainly paid off.”

“You are kinda the reason I was able to get the part in the first place...” Cocoa admits, walking to you. “So, thanks, Peppa. For everything.”

“Thanks for being there for me.” You give her a wink. “Looking forward to the final thing. I know you’ll knock it out of the park!”

Maple teleports you all to Baba’s Palace, the air a little cool as it’s so early in the morning over there, but the sun steadily warming the area up. You stand with Tapion and begin walking forward, Maple and Pantea with Gohan behind the two of you. One of the ghostly ushers bring you forward, Baba smiling. You can... sense someone behind her.

“Long time no see, bro.” a young voice calls out to Tapion.

His eyes start to water. Baba floats away. “MINOTIA!” Tapion runs to a young boy, not even a teen, with a halo above his head, and hugs him tight, picking him up and twirling a bit.

“It... it’s good to see you too, bro.” Minotia replies, hugging him back.

Tapion... starts laughing with joy. Heh, first time you’ve really heard him laugh like that. Maple looks to Baba. “So... he’s got a day, huh?”

“That he does. I believe it would be best to let them catch up a bit.” She glances in your direction. “While they do, I have some things to ask of you, Izumi. And of you, Gohan. When wielding the blades, what did the two of you experience?”

“...Pardon?” Gohan repeats.

“I’m curious about what both of you’ve experienced in wielding those swords. What was it like?”

>A. Masa and Mune talked to me!
>B. Well... when I held both, it was like I could feel everyone cheering me on. Not just hear it, but feel it
>C. There was this feedback loop between the Masamune and Sword of Braves, that’s what really ended Hirudegarn, I think
>D. Something else?

“Oh! Masa and Mune talked to me!” you blurt out a little excitedly. Maple nods, recalling you telling her about that after the little victory party. “Directly, I mean.”

Baba chuckles. “Ah, so they did. Then you’ve managed to form a connection with them like your father could manage, and like Mark was able to do.”

“They talked with me when brobro and I fused.” Maple adds in. “Though that was more because I was fused with him more than anything.”

“Masa and Mune are spirits who’ve allowed themselves to be sealed within the blade. They are the key to the sword’s power, pure souls who manage the magics that cast out evils. That they spoke with you directly means that they were sharing a bit of their power with you when you wielded your father’s sword.” Baba explains.

“Huh... didn’t feel anything like that when Tapion lent me his blade.” Gohan comments.

“I doubt there is a spirit inside the Sword of Braves. Instead, the magic is woven into the sword itself.” she states.

“So... speaking of, when you gave me the sword, Gohan, there were some interesting things I could feel. While wielding both, I could like... feel everyone cheering for me. Not just hear it, but feel it. And then there was like... this feedback loop that seemed to have both blades sharing their power together. I think that’s what really ended Hirudegarn.”

Baba grins. “I knew it.”

“Eh? Knew what?” Maple asks.

Baba floats towards you. “I believe, Izumi, that while you are correct, you are underselling your own abilities in this. You were a part of this, harnessing your skill with magic as a conduit for such a thing. Your own potent skill in this field could be the final piece that allowed Hirudegarn to be slain.”

“So congrats, kid. You really slay a Majin.” Beelzebub praises, approaching you all from the shadows.

“...B?” Minotia exclaims. “B! Oh wow it feels like it’s been so long...”

The Demon Prince heads towards the boy, bumping his fist against the kid’s. “And you’re free from that burden.”

Baba draws your attention back to her. “Ahem. I believe, Izumi, you could harness your magics to a further degree. Allowing you to harness a power like what you did when accessing the swords. Similar to the Kaio-Ten that you and Maple have managed, Pantea, but... perhaps more of a different path, so to speak.”

“Huh. Different how?” Pantea asks.

“A focus on magic, first and foremost, enhancing those abilities rather than focusing on Ki control alone.”

>A. Great! How does that work?
>B. Nah, doesn’t really interest me
>C. Could others manage this kind of power?
>D. Something else?

>The language is still quite... dense, but you seem to understand it better after giving it a good study, you finally seem to understand how it works. To be blunt, magic is... complex. It requires a fine and focused mind, and strict memorization of the EXACT right techniques to do. It is also apparently tied to ki, though in a more roundabout way than regular energy attacks.

Did we ever connect that ancient and archaic magic language to anything?

Is it Nemurian language?

“Great! How does it work?” you ask excitedly.

Baba laughs. “Hoho, so eager. Well, I would suggest focusing first on testing the limits of your Magics, and seeing where you can improve with them. Focusing more on how your Ki manages Magic. From there, you can work to channel Magic through the Raio-Ten. That may be the best way for you to manage this type of power.”

“Awesome!” you declare, thrusting your fist into the air. “Could others learn such a thing?”

“Yeah, I’d like to give it a shot myself.” Pantea comments.

“Perhaps. In fact, it may be a good idea to have someone to practice this with. And you, Pantea, are quite skilled with your magical abilities. As are you, Maple. However, note that this may be easier for Izumi to truly master.” she states.

Maple pats your shoulder. “Well, there you go Izzy. Something to start training for.”

You see Beelzebub and Minotia are done catching up, and looks like Tapion’s explained what all happened since he was released too, given the relieved look on the boy’s face. The three of them approach your group. “Mrs. Maple, Lady Baba, we’ve come to a decision. You say the Dragon Balls of Namek could be used to bring Minotia back, yes?”

“That they could.” Baba replies. “And I am sure, explaining your plit to them, the Namekians themselves would be willing to help you.”

“Then we would like to head there as soon as possible.” Tapion requests.

“What do you plan to do after that, Tapion?” you ask, trying your best not to sound too hesitant and worried as you do.

Tapion and Minotia look to one another. The heroes then look at your group. “We wish to see Konats one last time, to deliver the news that Hirudegarn has been slain. Though before that, we do have some catching up to do. If you all would allow it, the two of us would like to stay on Earth for a short while longer.”

“I’m sure none of us would mind.” Maple replies sweetly.

“I’d offer the both of you a place too, but things are... not exactly the best for a couple mortals, to be honest. Plus that sword of yours would freak out a lot of Demons down there.” Beelzebub comments. “And sadly I don’t have much time left before I need to head back myself, but... good to see you again, Minotia.”

You... guess that’s the best you could ask for. You give a little laugh, then bring your hand forward. “All right. Best of luck then, Tapion.”

“Actually... might I be able to come with you guys?” Pantea requests. “I’m friends with a few Namekians, and I’ve been to the planet before. I could help put a good word in, and collect the Dragon Balls with you.”

Gohan looks like he wants to say something, but hesitates.

You nudge Gohan in the arm. He needs the push. He looks to you and you grin at him... just a little teasingly. You expect him to protest. He doesn’t. He smiles back and nods. “I’ll go with you, Pantea. Wouldn’t hurt to have a little bit of help there.”

Pantea’s surprised, but doesn’t protest. “All right, sure. Whatcha think, Maple?”

She ruffles her son’s hair. “I’ll get you all there soon. You behave yourself, Gohan.”

“I will mom.” He places his hand on her shoulder, with Tapion and Minotia gathering around her under Pantea’s instruction. They all teleport away, leaving just you, Beelzebub, and Baba.

The Demon Prince looks up into the sky for a moment, then addresses Baba. “Any more luck trying to determine Towa’s plans?”

“Fragments. With Hirudegarn’s defeat, a wrench has been thrown into her plans, but not as big as one would hope.” Baba looks down. “I still see flashes of an unknown demon, with a fearsome presence, lurking somewhere.”

“...Unknown to even me?” Beelzebub asks curiously, implying a lot that you can’t quite pick up on, but take note of nonetheless.

She nods. “A new presence. Though I feel it comes not from the Demon Realm... but from Hell.”

You give her an odd look. “...Er. Hell as in...?”

“Hell’s ‘above’ the mortal plane, where the dead who are judged unworthy of Heaven are sent to be purified and eventually reincarnated. Nice place actually.” the red demon explains. Maple teleports back a moment after he says that.

“Baba, if you have the chance, can you look into Giru’s future at all too? Or, er, have you, at all? I’ve been curious about it for a while now, since he’s clearly gathering data for someone.”

“Hmm... bah, I’ll give you a freebie.” She hops down and laughs a little. “But next time, you’re gonna have to get it like everyone else, Izumi. Challenge or cash.” As you and Maple laugh a little, an image swirls around in her Crystal Ball, slowly starting to take form. “Hmm... curious.”

You lean down with Maple. Looks like... Giru’s on a spaceship of some sort. He’s looking out a window as it orbits a planet... looks to be a desolate desert one. Maple raises an eyebrow. “That... looks like Imeka. Wait, there’s something else...” The next image shows Giru on the same spaceship... huh. Strange planet, looks rather silvery, with a bit of blue and green in it.

“Can’t say I’ve seen that one before.” Baba comments. “But it does seem like these are not too far off. No more than a year.”

Maple takes note of the silvery planet. You don’t really know what to make of it, but looks like the lil’ guy will be on some trip to space soon. Well, that’s cool. You stand up and then ask your aunt, “Heeeey, auntie Maple, wanna help me train with my magic a bit?”

“Hah, sure Izzy. What did you want to practice first?”

You and Maple get to work practicing Magic together, Baba giving some pointers as Beelzebub returns to the Demon Realm. Things start off fairly well, and with something she’s quite familiar with: Lightning. And while for her it seems to mostly just be a review of the basics, you start to understand some of the concepts behind it better. Most notably, when she shows off a chargeable Lightning-based spell, Phantom Galvanizer or something, you’re able to pick up on how she uses the spell to charge it for greater damage, applying it to your Phantom Spark spell for an extra kick when you fire it off! What’s more, now that you understand this, you might be able to apply it to other techniques as well, with a bit more practice.

Next up, a focus on Light Magic, and this one even Maple’s able to improve a little with. She picks up on how you’ve been able to enhance the Solar Flare to cast out illusions, applying what she’s learned from Baba’s instructions on casting out the phantoms in the Forest of Terror to it for greater effect. And as she does, you learn a neat new trick with it: enhancing it further to not only cast out illusions, but also leave a lingering “shine” of sorts that allows you to more easily track anyone that the flash of the technique touches.

You feel like you’re on a roll! ...Sadly, though, you’re not. In trying to manage your Magic combos and your typeless magic like the Clothes Beam, all you really accomplish is review of what you know. You do well, but not well enough to get anything new out of it, aside from Baba’s helper Undine yelling at you for freezing part of the pond she was swimming in. Aheh, woops. Sadly, neither does Maple, but at the very least it proves fruitful in the two of you showing off what skills you know, with Maple showing off her phenomenal Trinity Spark technique, a massive enhancement of her Spirit Bits. Hmm... you might be able to pull something like that off too, with the right kind of training!

But what you do start to understand better is how you mix your Magic and your Ki together, and this proves to be one of the most important in your training with her. You take in Baba’s instructions as you power up, trying once again to use the Raio-Ten, your aura turning purple and sparking with raw power. But more than that, you realize that your aura is... different from Maple’s when she transforms. Hers seems to spark more wildly, static discharges going off in the air. Yours seems to be calmer, more focused as your power flows around you. And as Baba takes note of that, she instructs you to try to infuse more magic into it.

“Okay... here goes...” You spread your legs a bit, then calm your breathing as you focus on this. Magic and Ki. Two sides of the same coin. Both a part of you. You’ve done so much learning how to infuse your Ki attacks with Magic, but now’s time to try more of the reverse, powering your Magic up through your Ki. After a substantial amount of effort, you feel... a pulse of some sort. Like a heartbeat. There’s something. Something of greater power than what you have, still out of reach, but in view. And you’ve just taken your first step towards it. For a brief moment, your aura flashes... a slight pinkish color, then red, then green, then blue, then gold, then pink again, before finally returning back to normal. You collapse backward. Wow that took a bit out of you!

“That settles it.” Baba declares happily. “You are most certainly on the right path, Izumi.”

Maple approaches you and looks to you curiously. “...Huh. Your headband’s changed a little.” She pokes it slightly. “It’s got... a bit of a pink and gold tint to it now.”

“A bit of a side-effect of her magic, doubtlessly.” Baba comments. “Regardless, I hope this has proven fruitful.”

“Definitely!” You thrust your fist into the air. “...Ah crap. Maple, we still have time to head back?”

“Heh, yeah, been keeping track. Bet Peppa’s already there.”

And a thinning down, like SSJ God, and Ultra Instinct does. Condensing muscle rather then bulking it up.

Just because someone has god ki doesn't mean they'll get stronger, it takes knowing how to use it to become godly. Like, Goku was channeling the powers and techniques of the SSG, but that doesn't mean he was physically stronger. Perhaps that ritual makes someone a better fighter, and Goku could instinctively learn some bits of it?

It's sorta like how Roshi says that a stronger fighter doesn't mean a better fighter. Goku can do some neat stuff with that God form that he doesn't in any other form. Perhaps that form imbues him with some cool knowledge?

“So, what did you find?” you ask mom over dinner the day after Cocoa’s practice play. “Giru tell you anything new?”

“The memory he’s recovered is... interesting.” She taps her chin. “We still only have fragments, but they’re more coherent fragments than before. Visually, we know of a blue alien who seems to be Giru’s creator, but nothing beyond that. He doesn’t look familiar, rather old fellow, but he does have rather large, pointed ears and red hair, rather large mustache too. Kinda reminded me of...” Mom shakes her head. “Well, whatever he was, those were some of the most notable features.”

“Like... Tapion’s? Or like one of those Herans?” Gohan asks.

“I guess he seemed more Heran-like. Oh! Did have these odd sunglasses.” Maple ponders on this. “Hmm... might be something to look into. In addition to that, we’ve got bits of a goal for Giru recovered. It seems like he was sent out to locate any rare alien species... I guess for preservation purposes? Saiyans being among them, though I’d guess he isn’t supposed to engage with Saiyans directly, given he’s programmed to see them as a potential danger.”

Huh. Interesting. “So what’s this guy doing, trying to make some alien petting zoo of endangered species, or does he have some ulterior motive?”

“Nothing we’ve been able to recover could tell us. And we still don’t have any clue on where his home planet might be, but Bulma suspects taking him to space may provide us with more clues. Izzy and I did see him in space, after all.”

>A. Think he might be able to recover more memories if he sees the play again?
>B. Say, Gohan, how was your trip to Namek? Tapion and Minotia doing okay?
>C. Count me in if you do, I’d like to help. I did first discover the lil’ guy, after all

“So, think he might be able to recover some more memories if he sees the play again?” you ask your mom. “I mean, he was able to behave himself during that practice.”

“Possibly. But I wouldn’t put too much stock in it, at least not as much as trying to retrace his steps.” Mom smiles a little. “But you could take him again, if you’d like.”

You shrug after finishing another bowl of rice. “Maybe, maybe. Could also see if other media triggers any memories before that... hmm.”

“Izzy certainly has given him a lot already.” Gohan mumbles out.

“Well, whatever. Count me in when you do decide on that! A trip to space to finally solve this sounds like fun! Aaaand I did discover the little guy, after all.” Heh, training with uncle Raditz and Daikon... might be a good idea to see them again.

“Heh, if you don’t have some more important things to do.” mom tells you. “Might be a few people you should spend some time with first.”

She does have a point there. But... you’ll manage. “Speaking of trips to space, how was Namek, Gohan? Tapion and Minotia doing okay?”

“Yeah. Heh, Tapion was actually rather surprised by how much his brother knew about other planets. Guess spending time with Beelzebub hunting those other Dragon Balls was quite the learning experience for him. Pantea got to catch up with her friends Dende and Cargo again, heh, they’ve actually gotten some other Namekian kids their age and younger into some card games and a few handhelds.” Gohan smirks a little. “Though they’ve got quite a ways to go before they can handle Rainbow Road nearly as well as I can.”

You roll your eyes. “That all you did over there?”

“Well, no. They did agree to let us use the Dragon Balls, but their Elder requested we help some of their warriors train a bit. There was that Nail guy from the Tournament that Piccolo fought, man, he’s something else. After that, they summoned Porunga, their Eternal Dragon... heh, man, you should’ve seen that thing, Peppa! It’s bigger than even Shenron! Guy could wear Shenron like a scarf!”

Mom and dad look at your brother as he describes everything, a nostalgic look on their faces. Once he’s done, dad asks him, “Say, Gohan, feel up for a little training later?”

He looks over to Goku. “Hmm? Er, sure, I guess? Why you ask, dad?”

“Just been a while since we really practiced together. And I know you’ve been improving a lot recently.”

Gohan seems receptive, but... not especially enthusiastic. Hmm.

>A. You know, Gohan, dad still believed you’d do the right thing, even after you had your... run-in with the ninja and everything
>B. We should train some more too, mom! I’ve got a few things I’ve been meaning to practice?
>C. Count me in for that too, dad! I wanna test myself against you, Gohan, since we never really got the chance in the Tournament

“You know, Gohan, even if, I’ll admit, I worried about what you were doing, dad never stopped believing you’d do the right thing. Even after your... run-in with the ninja.” you whisper to your brother.

Initially he doesn’t really seem to react to your comment. But his face softens a bit. “Heh. You know what dad? There might be a few things I’d like to practice with you. Fair warning though, they might be some pretty big surprises. Think you’re up for it?”

“Yeah! I’d love to see it, Gohan!” Goku declares cheerfully.

You yourself turn to Maple. “Hey mom, while they’re at that, we should train some more too! I’ve got a few things I’ve been meaning to practice. You up for that?”

She grins wide. “Heh, beome Champ and you’re still eager to train with me, huh?”

“Like I’d just rest on my laurels! You’ve taught me better than that.” You stick your tongue out at her. “Oh, but before I forget, I’ve been wondering, dad. You remember the technique Vegeta used? That Helix Galick Gun? He said it was like my technique, but without any magic. Do you have any thoughts on that? Or how about your Hyper Kamehameha, it was able to hold off his attack even with how strong he was. Ooh! Could you combine them?!” Okay getting a little excited there, down a notch, Peppa.

“Hmm... well, I designed it because I tended to have trouble matching Maple whenever we had clashes like that. Dunno if I could combine it with what Vegeta does... hmm, maybe if we fused...” Dad rubs his chin.

“Like Vegeta’d fuse with anyone. Hah!” Gohan laughs a little.

Goku shrugs. “Either way, his did seem to work like yours, overpowering defenses when it connects. Mine’s not so much stronger as it is more focused, I guess.”

“Well, your cousin’s got some impressive techniques too, you know.” mom comments with a sly grin. “In fact, you two better watch out, she’s improving quite a lot on her own.”

“Hah, great!” You thrust your fist into the air. “I’ll keep getting stronger too! Not gonna give up!”

A few days later, with good ol’ Friday finally here, you and mom stretch a little in preparation for your practice. “Okay Peppa, what were you hoping to improve on?”

>A. Go all-out, mom! I wannt test my limits!
