Chapter fifteen

Final Dawn

Orion stared own at his mothers charred body. He had almost finished restoring her. He felt tears swell up in his eye's as he gazed upon her pinkish skin. All that remained was the single spark of life that once existed there.

He had been trying for ten minutes to bring her back. He just couldn't seem to grasp it entirely. His mind would bend and move in the direction instinct told him. He could almost see it. As he would reach for it, the spark of life would dim and soon go out entirely. It was hopeless.

Orion took his mother's hand into his palm and held it close. This was the person he depended on for so long. The person he vowed would never meet harm. And in the end, he just wasn't there. He could do nothing but sit here now and wish for things that could never happen. "Oh mother... I'm so sorry." Orion whispered as he felt the anger start to billow.

"Cia?" Orion slowly looked up. If there were ever a sight that could brighten Orion's spirits, this was one of them. There sitting beside him was his sister. Still as cute and pixie-like as ever. She too bore the look of great tears. He took her into his arms and embraced her. They sat like that for god knows how long. Speaking to each other in that familiar language of unspoken words.

* * * * *

Goku stood at the northern side of the ruined courtyard. His hand throbbed like nothing he'd ever felt before. Even Frieza never made him hurt like this. He looked over towards where Vegita and the creature were fighting. Amazing. It seemed no matter what the creature did, Vegita was staying one step ahead of him.

Goku scanned the rest of the courtyard. He saw Yamcha, Tien, and Piccolo near one of the fallen buildings. They were huddled together in the shadows. Krillan and Gohan were over there trying to help them as pest they could. They had taken an even worse beating than he did.

Goku limped his way over there as silently as he could. He wished he could help Vegita, but he stood no chance against the hideous creature that had done all this. Goku frowned as he pondered how this was all going to end. Vegita's power wouldn't last forever.

As he approached the other's he noticed Piccolo had regenerated his leg, and was sitting up and watching the action. Yamcha and Tien still lay there, almost lifeless. Goku fumbled through his pockets and brought out a small brown leather bag. Kneeling beside Them he gave two beans to Krillan, motioning to Tien and Piccolo.

He bent over beside Yamcha, shaking him slightly. "C'mon Yamcha. Dinner time. You know how Chi-Chi gets when someone's late." Yamcha barley cracked a smile. He opened his eye's slightly, coming to rest on the senzu bean Goku held in his left palm. "Goku. You little saint." He said as he opened his mouth to accept the Senzu bean.

The bean did it's magic with out fail in seconds Yamcha was on his feet and as good as new. Piccolo and Tien also recovered in amazing time. Goku too scarfed one as he looked inside the pouch. He gave a small grunt as the bones in his hand snapped back into place. His hand was still covered in blood, but at least the bleeding was stopped. Two beans were left inside the pouch. Hopefully they wouldn't need them.

* * * * *

Orion stared dumbly at his mothers body. He and his sister had fallen immediately back into they're old pattern. Like they could almost read each others thoughts. His sister nodded beside him and stared at they're mother, Cerifine. Her skin was still pink and hairless like a newborn baby. She could hardly tell it was her at all.

Mia got up and walked over to the side adjacent to Orion. Together they stared intently at they're mother. The body began to emit and Eire glow. Slowly the glow erupted into a full glare. The body began to regenerate itself at a rapid rate. Orion and Mia grunted in stress as the body's glow faded and then vanished all together.

Orion panted from exhustion. Never had he used such energy. It wasn't all his. Mia had lent him the energy he needed. She was now holding herself up with her arms, seeming more out of breath than he was.

Orion turned his attention back to they're mother. They had succeeded in full regeneration her body, but still not a spark of life existed with in the lifeless husk. Orion fought back a tear as he came to grips with the fact that there was nothing he could do. Rage began to fill his every being. Slowly his consciousness began to fade in a complete vengeance of anger. One day Orion would understand this moment to be the very beginning of his decline to utter destruction.

Mia stared in awe at her brother. She had been overjoyed beyond belief when she first seen him. Then she'd seen what he was trying to do. He had been working so hard to bring they're mother back to life and yet he didn't seem to have the strength. She had lent his the strength the he needed to complete his task, even though she knew in her heart that in the end would all prove for not.

Now he sat across from her. His face a picture of anger and hate. She only felt sorrow and remorse for him until his pupils completely vanished from his eyes. Then his hair started to get lighter and lift as though gravity no longer held it within it's law. Now she was afraid. Not just because she had never seen this side of him before, but because of the mental link the both share she could understand and relate to those very feelings, it would only be a matter of time before she could no longer tell the difference between his feeling from her own.

"CIA!!!" She screamed. The instant he looked up his eyes returned to normal and his hair fell. She noticed however that it still looked lighter than it did before. Almost gray.

"We shouldn't just leave her hear." She said, her voice sounding almost pleading. Orion looked down at they're mother. For a second she thought he was going to lose it again. Then he nodded and looked up at her. "Your right. Let's not bury her here though." With that he scooped his mother into his arms and got to his feet. Mia walked along side him as they made they're way out of the courtyard, and then out of the town. That would be the last anyone would see of Orion' sister.

* * * * *

Vegita grunted as he just barley dodged Sinder's fist. The damned creature just kept getting faster and faster. Eventually Vegita would not be able to keep up.

They're fight had taken them well out of the town now. They hovered almost two hundred feet in the sky, the town a distant speck in the horizon. Vegita had decided the town was far too dangerous of a battle ground. He wanted this creature in the air away from objects that could steal his attention and possibly his life.

This high in the air all there was was himself and the limitless behemoth that tried again and again to hit him. Each time Vegita would sense it coming at the last second, and dodge. He given up all attempts to strike back. he would need all his power just to evade the creature. Eventually he would run out of energy, that or the creature would finally move faster than his senses could track. Vegita believed the latter would happen first.

He just barely dodged the last attack. Each time his mind would try to think of a new strategy he would be driven back again by another of Sinder's blows. "Damn" He thought to himself. Just what had he gotten himself into this time.

* * * * *

Goku helped Yamcha onto to his feet. He turned his head slightly. He could feel Vegita's power wavering. Vegita wasn't going to last much longer, and he still had no clue as to what could possibly be done to stop such an evil. His thoughts traveled to attempting a spirit bomb, but he soon dismissed it. Even one powered with the life of every living being in the universe couldn't stop such a creature.

Gohan tugged at his dads pant leg. "Hey dad.. where did Orion go?" Goku looked around to find Gohan was right. Orion was nowhere to be found. Orion was the only possibility Goku could think of. The difference between Orion's power and Sinder's was almost non existent. If any of them could possibly stand a chance it might be him.

"Where indeed?" Came a strong voice from behind them. Goku turned to see a tall, blue cloaked man standing just a few feet away. Goku's mind boggled as he realized that he didn't even feel him approach. Gohan stared wide-eyed at the mans cloak. It seemed to be made of something not of this world. It's material was like nothing Gohan had ever seen before.

The man was kept a hood over his head concealing his eye's. Long strands of greyish white hair ran from the sides of the hood and from the mans chin. Slowly the man brought a young hand up and slid the hood up and reviled his eyes. Immediately his hair fell back and over the back of his robe. His haunting blue eyes slowly surveyed the others, taking in every detail.

Goku stepped in front of the others. Who or whatever this person was he wasn't that powerful. At least not as far as he could tell. But the past couple of days had had far more than they're share of surprises, and if this new guy was just another waiting to happen, he would be ready.

The man's eye's fixed on Goku's. Goku felt a chill run up his spine as he gazed into the mans deep-blue iris's. Something about them reminded him of Orion. They literally seemed to glow without shedding one bit of light. Goku sensed far much more power hidden within them. He wasn't surprised by them having the same feel as Orion's presence.

* * * * *

Vegita winced in pain as the Sinder's fist came into contact with his midsection. Twice in the past ten minutes that had happened. Not bad considering how powerful his opponent was. Never the less, had he not sensed it coming at the last possible minisecond, that blow probably would have left him in two.

Vegita backed of form the creature trying to regain some ground. Sinder didn't give him the chance as he shot a glowing beam of white light strait towards him. Vegita narrowly escaped the blast coming out with a fried shoulder. Vegita grunted in his agony as he felt his flesh start to burn and pop.

How was this possible. Just how did this nightmare get this powerful. It deified all the laws of energy that he knew. The universe itself is said to have a fixed amount of power. Yet this creature had more than could have fit in a million such planes. Vegita turned his head up to Sinder. He could feel him smiling a wicked grin. "OH sorry. Did that hurt. Wanna beg for mercy now, rodent." Vegita's mind swarmed with anger, his rage bursting in a bright purple aura.

* * * * *

"Goku..." Goku turned towards Tien. "I guess a Surprise attack is probobly hopeless?" Goku shook his head in dismay.

"Sorry.... I just don't think I could ever make a Spirit bomb big enough to even come close to destroying such an evil." Goku's attention turned toward where the creature and Vegita were fighting. Vegita was getting angry, and in the process he was letting down his guard. It wouldn't be long now. Goku started to move when the cloaked man spoke up.

"What is a spirit bomb?" The man looked not one bit afraid of what might happen if the creature should turn it's attention back towards them. Like he had on a protective shield the creature could never penetrate. Goku smiled. He really respected such breviary. "It's and energy attack fueled with the energy from all living things. It can be a powerful attack but with this creatures power I don't think it will even make a dent."

The man brought his fingers up and stroked his beard. His hands moved upward towards a frightful bruise in his forehead. Goku couldn't help but wonder were he'd gotten such a nasty mark. Finally the man brought his hands around his staff and seemed to look strait into Goku's soul. "I am Merlin, Chief Mage of Avalon. Protector of the Southern Planes and Benefactor of the Twelve Gods. Make your Spirit bomb. True I too believe that it alone will not do any good, but perhaps with my help we can make it powerful enough to destroy an evil that has plagued the multiverse for eons on end."

Goku looked at the old man quizzically. Yet there was something about him that told Goku the he wasn't lying. Goku nodded and spread his arms. "The life of the planet should do." Were than man's last words before Goku started to concentrate.

* * * * *

Vegita rushed forward in a mad rush. He threw caution and reverice to the wind as he brought his fist up to strike. If he was going to die, he damn well was going to do it on his feet, not on his knees.

It seemed like everything was going in slow motion. Sinder smiled. Brought his hand up for what seemed like a block. Then at the last second Vegita felt the creatures hand form into a series of sharp talons. Vegita's scream of agony was cut short by a piercing feeling in his gut.

Vegita's mind went blank. The only thing he felt was the maddening pain screaming up his left arm, and the numb feeling coming from his midsection. Vegita's head bowed as he began to loose consciousness.

* * * * *

Orion stood by Mia's side beside the grave that they'd dug for they're mother. He could feel the tears trying to break through and gush out. No, he wouldn't cry. He'd shed enough tears already.

He looked over at Mia. She stood there, he arms crossed, her eye's closed. Orion could not decern a single bit of emotion from he face. He had to admit. She didn't seem the same as he'd remembered her. Like she'd become a whole different person and yet stayed the same. It wasn't like a drastic change. Just the way she seemed to looked at things. Her basic aura. The way she breathed. It was like all the Charisma had gone out of her.

"You've changed." Orion said after a few moments of unbearable silence. She looked at him for a second before turning away and taking a few steps. "So have you." Orion nodded. He couldn't deny that. He too ha notice the difference in his behavior. Especially since he arrived at this village. He doubted he never would be the same again.

"What happened to you. We really needed you. Where have you been all this time?" Mia. sobbed. Orion didn't need to see her tears to know that they were there. Orion opened his mouth to answer when he heard a familiar laugh behind him.

"Haaa. Where have you been!? What have you been doing?! He hehe heee. Who have you been doing?! Haha heh heh heee..." Orion turned around to face the creature. HE was shocked to see the sight in front of him. He'd felt warriors entire battle with the darkness. he himself was surprised that he had lasted as long as he did. what he hadn't felt were the final moments of the battle, when he was burying his mother and saying goodbye.

Now the warrior hug impaled on the creatures mutated forearm. his left arm severed from halfway down from the elbow. blood spilled from the corners of his mouth and around the creatures arm. Orion felt no pity for the warrior. He could sense not one shred of good or decency in his heart.

With a playful smile Sinder lowered his arm and threw the warrior towards the village remains. Orion looked at him with not a bit of concern. "What do you want?" Orion asked defiantly. Sinder continued smiling evilly as he pointed towards him. "You, little maggot. You are definite a piece of work." Orion stepped back towards his sister. She too seemed to look at the creature with a kind of defiance one would expect to see on a child looking at a disliked relative. Sinder floated down and sat on the gave marker that Orion had stuck in the ground to mark his mothers grave. Orion's brought his fist up and clinched his teeth.

Sinder not once lost eye contact with the boy. "Think about it. I could teach you things you never dreamed of. Show you wonders and nightmares that would drive FUNimation out of business. You have barely begun to grasp at your power boy. I now give you the chance to embrace it!" Sinder held out his palm for the boy.

Orion didn't even need a second to think it over. "NEVER! I'll never accept you as a mentor. You snake, you killed my mother. Why would you ever even think I would ever join you!" Orion blood was boiling.

Sinder withdrew his hand. "Don't forget your father.. opps. I guess I got him just before you were born. There's no way you could remember him. He heee." Sinder playfully laughed. Orion's eyes went wide open in shock. Slowly they turned downward and closed all together while he tried to hold his anger in check. He'd never come so close to losing it like had done in the village. He didn't want to come that close again.

Sinder laughed maniacally. He'd hadn't had a day like this since he sent Viridian to his grave. He looked downward and suddenly got a n Idea. "Hmmmm Let me guess. You finally gave up trying to bring you poor dead mother back so you buried her here. Aw gee all you had to do was ask." Sinder rose tow finders on his bloody hand.

The ground started to shake violently as the loosened soil around Cerifine's grave. Abruptly her body came out of the ground and hovered there. It was still as pink as ever with a dirty tinge from being placed in the dirt.

Orion looked up. He didn't know what was going on. Soon he would wonder just what had happened.

Sinder floated to just behind the body and a little over it. "Aw poor lidle lady.... Meyhap we could fix ya up a spell. he heh...." Sinder brought his arms to his side and slowly stretched them out. The air around him seemed to darken as he called upon the small mana the plane possessed. "Des mana cor geainter fe massa toeain!" Sinder said, his voice seeming so not like him and almost at a whisper. Cerfine's body began to glow a feint white. "Des mana nec geainter fe horsn toeain!" Sinder shouted. The body began to glow far more brightly now with a hint of white and black circling it like a cyclone.

Orion watched teary-eyed as the body started to regenerate far better and faster than he could ever had managed. He felt Mia's hand in his as they both watched as the hideous creature reanimated they're mother.

Finally Cerifine looked like her old self as long blonde hair grew from his head and other nonchalant places. Orion let out a tear and part of a sob as she opened her eye's. Sinder smiled in unparalleled glee. Orion held out his hand. "M... Mom.?" Cerifine too reached out to her son. "Cia...?" She softly whispered.

"Yes that's right for your viewing pleasure, the new improved, miss's.... Whats your name?" Sinder said as he brought up his taloned fist. "SIKE!" Sinder said as he brought his fist down and strait through Cerifine's body cutting through it like it was tin foil.

Orion's face was one of unparalleled shock. HE stayed like that for seconds that seemed like hours. Blood shoot out in all directions landing on both Orion and Mia. Mia held he hands to her face and screamed. Orion's face continued to be in shock.

"Damn parents. Just when you think they've come around they leave! How rude!" Sinder laughed clutching his stomach.

Orion's face went from a picture of shock to unequaled hate. The ground trembled as massive bolts of energy erupted from nowhere. "You... You........." Orion's body was quickly enveloped in a bright greyish aura.

Sinder hardly noticed as he continued to laugh about how hilarious his most recent prank was.

Large pieces of land lurched themselves from whatever kept them one with the planet. The slowly floated upwards into the sky. Orion's aura grew stronger and stronger as a whirlwind of bolts of every color of mana leapt out and came back in.

"You... You... BASTARD!" Orion screamed as he launched himself at Sinder. Orion's fist collided with the right side of Sinder's face. Sinder's mind went black as he could have sworn he heard he cheek break. The pain that came few seconds later told him he was right.

Orion didn't give him the chance to come back. Again and again he pounded his fists into Sinder's face. Just as Sinder brought his arms up to block at an unprecedented speed Orion claimed a blow to his midsection, sending Sinder flying up towards the air.

Sinder twirled in the Air as he saw Orion wasn't wasting time catching up. His face a complete vision of anger he waited for Orion to catch up before striking. Orion brought up his fist ready to aim for Sinder's back when the creature swung around slicing Orion's gut. Sinder smoothing brought both arms around and impaled Orion shoulders with his talons. Orion screamed in pain. Sinder didn't waste time to reflect. He brought his right talon out of Orion's shoulder and swiped it along the boys face, ripping it clean off. at the same time he threw the boy down like a piece of garbage.

Breathing heavily Sinder landed just a few feet from where the body lay. Why couldn't he have just left well enough alone. He knew the power the boy possessed. He knew that he could have just killed the boy at any time with barley any resistance, but no. He had to push it. Old Viridian always said he never knew when to quit.

Sinder fell to his knees. He hadn't been hurt like this since the fight with Viridian. His ribs ached and throbbed as he felt his face. Felt like his skull was damn near shattered. His mind was a haze as he got to his face.

All things considered he was lucky. The boy wasn't using just chi or mana, but a combination of both. Sinder grunted. That was exactly what that old hag had prophesied. A child of Avalon not born in Avalon, with all the powers of the universe would emerge and bring holy destruction upon the nine spheres and bring order to the chaos. That child would be of Viridian's blood. Sinder hadn't though the old slut had been telling the truth at the time. But now he couldn't help but wonder. Oh well, the child was dead now. Both he and Obveron could rest easy now. The thought hadn't but come out of his mind when he heard a sound from behind him.

* * * * *

"There.. It's finished." Goku said as he held out his palm. The spirit bomb form from his hand and emerged as a bright glowing sphere. IT hadn't taken Goku nearly as long as he'd thought to gather energy from the planet. Maybe because it was his second time doing it, or maybe because every life form on the planet could feel the evil emitting from here.

Goku hadn't lost his concentration once. Not even when Vegita came flying out of nowhere, and landed almost directly in the middle of the ruined square. Gohan had hurried to his with one of the last remaining two senzu beans. Probably just in time as Piccolo said he could hardly feel a spark of energy left in the once proud Saiyon.

Vegita had recovered quickly but was understandably pissed off about his arm. It was completely severed just below the elbow, leaving only a hideous stub.

"Yes, your right this is powerful. but alas it is nowhere near powerful enough. allow me." Merlin suggested. he brought his staff just in front of the sphere. His throat started to hum as the staff turned a mixture of blue, red, green, white, and black.

"Des mana cor hade rey toren nec fe deshn rey gortain, des mana cor geainrer fe rento!"

Merlin chanted. He continued to chant this over and over again. As he did the spirit bomb became engulfed in the same colors as the staff. Goku could feel the power being drain into the sphere. It was almost impossible to measure. Yet Goku realized that the sphere was getting smaller.

* * * * *

Sinder stared in total shock as Orion's body began to lift and the hover off the ground. "Impossible!" Sinder screamed as the body became drown in the colors of mana. Suddenly Orion's face regrew itself piece by piece. His wounds on his chest healed as did the slice wound in his gut.

Finally the aura silenced and Orion placed his feet on the ground. His eye's stayed closed for a few seconds before opening. Sinder looked at his in total disbelief. Even the twelve gods didn't have the power to regenerate from that sort of damage, let alone that quickly. Finally for the fist time that day Sinder wasn't enjoying himself.

Orion looked at Sinder evilly. Orion smiled at Sinder in a way that sent shivers down Sinder's spine. Orion said only one word before attacking. "Die." Orion disappeared in a blinding movement even Sinder couldn't follow. A second later he felt Orion's fist ramming his gut. Sinder coughed blood out of his mouth as he went flying back wards. Never had any one creature made him bleed.

Sinder didn't have time to ponder the validity of his thought. Orion was right there beside him as he flew. With a smooth swift kick he sent Sinder flying in a new direction, landing right in the middle of the square.

Sinder Got to his knees just before Orion landed behind him. With a fluid motion he brought his talon around and under, Impaling Orion in the heart. Orion Looked up at him and stared into his eye's. Regeneratable or not there was always one sure way to kill and immortal.

Just before Sinder rose his fist up to bring the killing blow he heard a familiar voice behind him. A voice he had not heard in over six millennia.

"It's ready! Now!" Sinder turned just in time to see Merlin and the Piss ant Saiyon from earlier. The Saiyon was holding a mana/chi powered sphere. No he had already thrown it and it was zooming right for him! What a jerk.

Sinder Ducked and brought his talon out of Orion's chest just in time. The bomb zoomed over his head. Orion Looked strait into the bomb as it collided with him. For a split second he felt nothing but serenity and peace. Like the whole world just became a little piece of heaven. The peace was abruptly replaced by shear agonizing pain. He screamed out in horror at the bomb seemed to be taking him apart piece by piece.

Sinder stared up in fascination. This bomb would have really hurt. Maybe to the point of having to retreat. How excellent. His mind suddenly understood. This was supposed to be they're last chance. One last once of will before they succumbed. And they just hit the boy with it! How wonderful!

Sinder surprised a sniker as he got t his feet. He put his palm forward to feel the heat radiating off the blast. The boy was still screaming. Amazing he hadn't expired yet. Sinder actually wonder weather it would even kill the boy. He felt the skin of his palm start to bubble and pop and abruptly brought it back.

* * * * *

"Ahhhhh NOOOOO!" Goku yelled as the scene played out in front of his eye's He looked over at the old man. His eye's looked lost and hopeless. "How? The spirit bomb can't hurt a person with no evil in they're heart!" Goku flustered as he fell to his knees. "What have I done?" The old man put his hand on Goku's shoulder. "It's not your fault. You didn't kn...." Merlin stopped midsentace and stared at Orion "Impossible."

Goku Shook his head and looked at Sinder, then at the others. "You guys go, there's no way we can beat him but maybe I can stall long enough for you all to get away.."

"No! Get close all of you..." Merlin's voice sounded almost on the verge of laughter.

* * * * *

Sinder face became quizzical as Orion Ceased his screaming. Was the little brat finally giving up and letting go. Orion's head bowed and swayed. Sinder took a step closer. Orion's head raised and looked back into Sinder's eye's "Die." Orion's said softly. Orion's screamed out in anger. "What the hell!" Sinder screamed as Orion's body disappeared in a bright flash of white blinding light.

For a second Sinder though he might have inadvertently jumped dimensions. Then came the pain. Searing tormenting pain. He screamed out as he felt his own muscles give way and his own body buckle under the power of Orion.

* * * * *

Merlin Barely completed the spell in time. Orion's body burst out in an indescribable blast. Within seconds the blast engulfed them and half the countryside for several miles. The last thing they saw was Sinder's body disappearing in a blast of purple on white flame. Merlin did his best to keep the spell up. The onslaught lasted for seven hours, without letting up once.

When at last the blast had fully subsided the landscape was completely bare. The ground looked as though it had been smoothed and polished in to a vast chasm of glass and marble. One thing was unmistakable, Orion and Sinder were nowhere to be seen.

Goku felt out with his mind. He couldn't feel the presence of either of them. IT seemed as though Whatever Orion did, it did it for good.

* * * * *

Mia had just barley escaped the blast. She lay beside the Lake that had just the day before been the battleground for Piccolo and Tervin. The small cave inside the lake caved in behind her as the ground was assaulted by go no's what. It didn't matter to her. All that mattered was what had happened this day. She got to witness he mother dieing twice, He brother come back form the dead just to abandon her when her mother was lost. His screams of anger continued to ring in her mind as she lay on the beach.

Suddenly the air in front of her seemed to shift. Suddenly a small figure seemed to phase in with reality. She recognized this person. It was the creature called Sinder.

The creature hair had gone back to a bright purple with his tattooed chest and face back to they're original black. He grabbed her by the face and lifted her into air. "The other one was stupid. How bout you?" With that they both disappeared in a bright flash of blue light and purple fire.

* * * * *

"What happened to you. We really needed you. Where have you been all this time?" These words continued to play out in the spirit's mind over and over. they looped around like a scratched record. Any thought of who, and where he was was lost in the yellow mist. It had no body. None that it could see anyway. It just continued floating upward through a heavy fog of thick yellow clouds.

Finally a name came to the spirit. Orion. No Cia. What was his name? Cia felt right, but Orion felt stronger, like it was what he was meant to be called. With this startling revelation came Memories. Memories of everything. Memories of his infancy. Of his first birthday. Of the day he was taken from his family. Of the day he met a boy Named Gohan. Of the minute his mother died. After that there was nothing. How did he get here? Were was here?

"What happened to you. We really needed you. Where have you been all this time?"

The words kept appearing in his mind. The last words he heard from his sister. In his sorrow the sprit didn't realized that sometime in his accent through the clouds his body had formed.

Suddenly the clouded gave way and he saw a reddish violet sky overhead. His body shoot out of the clouds and landed on a small platform. Ahead of him he saw a long line of bluish clouds all waiting to enter a large building at the end of the line. For as far As Orion Could see there was nothing but yellow clouds outlined by the violet sky.

"Now there's something you don't see everyday."

The end

Auther's note.

Well I'd just like to thank everyone who e-mailed me and gave me they're support while writting this story. As you can tell it dosen't end here. Far from it. I got at the very least four more volumes planned out. I just hope they write themselves the way this one did.

What an we hope to see in the next volume. Well I got several new characters planned out as well as a final battle with Tervin and Vegita. I'm not going to saw much about the volume after except you can expect it to take place in a completely different diminsion (Several actually).

Speacial thanks to the PlanetNamek Staff. If it wern't for them posting the story in the first place it probobly never would have been completed.

Thanks for reading
