Kasai stared at his father's former throne. His expression was plagued with pain and sorrow. He switched his gaze to his reflection on a nearby mirror. He greeted the image with a frown.

Kasai: “Who am I? But a pretender? With his absence, the throne will be passed down to me, but I am no king. Right now, I am only a son who grieves for his father.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVLAH3JBd7
The hurting prince listened to the ongoing commotion of his subjects as they awaited his presence outside the castle.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwm9IPvI93
Kasai: “They're out there, waiting for me, hoping I can relieve them of their concerns in these desperate times. I want to answer their calls, but I do not see myself capable of being the leader they need me to be.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZFtqhhHgN
Nozomu and Pouwar entered the room together.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KxDWsSGYb
Nozomu: “We're prepared for departure, Kasai.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTNMHNayZW
Pouwar: “Let's go kick some ass!”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF855dur9H
Kasai: “I'll be there momentarily. Reveal yourselves in the mean time, I don't want to keep fueling their impatience further.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleBrx24yzx
Nozomu: “Understood.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2Q6tneLRd
Nozomu nudged Pouwar who was zoned out at the moment, and the two retreated. Kasai heard the cheers from the crowd as his comrades went out to greet them. The pressure built up even more and his thoughts ate away at him. At last, he shrugged off his doubts and took a step outside. Kasai was instantly approached by an older Tatsu wearing a robe with a symbol on it.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeibYxe9ltv
"Kasai! Our greatest preachers have bestowed these holy pendants upon the three of you. We're praying you make it back safely, may Amaterazu guide you all towards victory!"
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNQwIqk4Ny
Kasai took the pendants, receiving them with a smile.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjyy6tEcA3
Kasai: “Thank you, I feel more confident already!”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zhReGUKyX
Kasai and his comrades stood by the pods they would take to travel to earth. Below them stood the residents of their planet. Kasai turned to his people with a bright look on his face. He raised his fist up.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6i2tj622L
Kasai: “My people! This journey is our final step towards salvation! I can feel it! Amaterazu is leading us towards his resurrection! Once he is restored, balance and tranquility shall return at last! Today we will fight, not just the 3 of us but every single one of us! Your hopes and dreams will carry us to victory, this battle will be one in which we all will win together! May Amaterazu be with us all!”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycXWc9jnJL
The audience cheered, some over emotional, others simply excited. Kasai smiled, embracing the love of his people, before turning around and entering his pod. Pouwar and Nozomu followed, but not before Kasai handed the pendants to them. Their pods took off into outer space, commencing their journey. The pods flew aligned to one another, the inhabitants of each could see each other through the glass that covered the front. Nozomu kept his view on Kasai. His gaze grew rather concerned.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvZRjD2dxk
Nozomu: “Kasai, what troubles you?”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbB0HQBR6nV
He communicated through a radio within the pods. Kasai broke out of his pondering head.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIcndhhjaZ
Kasai: “What do you speak of? My friend.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ubm0kCdiA
Nozomu: “Your roster displays unease, did your visions reveal something?”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXBb3WJIRf
Kasai: “No, it's not about my visions, not this time. My father, he was a good man, he didn't deserve the fate bestowed upon him. I'm the one who holds Amaterazu's will, and yet, I sometimes can't help but question his decisions. He's our savior, so why does he take from us? As a preacher of his will, I shouldn't be doubting him, but I can't help but wish things could have been different. I arrived today expecting to earn his utmost respect and praise. I wanted to make my father proud, I wanted to show him that all the faith he put in me wasn't in vain…. And now, I'll never have the opportunity to experience that.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE29djmjfLw
Nozomu: “….Well you are the wiser one of the three of us, I don't think there's much consultation I can provide right now. However, Amaterazu has gotten us this far, he's guided us to improve to levels we would've never imagined otherwise. Our trip to the sun for our training was from his vision and look at us now, we're stronger than ever! You surpassed your own father, perhaps his death was tragic but I'm sure he's resting well knowing a greater king is soon to rise to take up his place!”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCbTbDP8nc
Kasai: “You're right, Nozomu. But I still can't help taking this battle a little personal, I want what's best for my people, but I also want that bastard to pay for his actions. Amaterazu is testing my will, and I fear I may not be strong enough this time around.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CqX0prmva
Nozomu: “All we can do now, is trust Amaterazu will lead us to the correct path, lead you to the correct path.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadE8QhXAT2
Kasai: “Right.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYR2Eew2GT
Nozomu: “You're not in this alone, Kasai. I'll be by your side for every last moment!”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYpzuCGUNS
Kasai: “I can always count on you, Nozomu.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0FCcuQJeU
Pouwar: “Hey, I think that's enough chatter don't you guys agree? I need my rest; I can hear everything you say!”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9Y64w0eVu
Kasai and Nozomu were startled. They shut themselves off in silence out of shame.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RklpZwKKw
Kasai: “P-Pardon the inconvenience, Pouwar, I think we should all rest right now, for what is to come will be our greatest task yet.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5gp7i7R4Q
The three laid back and prepared for their arrival.

"I'm no saiyan, but I've seen this happen many times before, son. You were always just too pure for me to ever consider such behavior on your part, Goku."
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTG6e90yzQJ
Goku: “I just feel lost, Master Roshi. I always believed I had my life figured out but the truth is, I never realized just how much battle meant more to me than everything else. I've put myself and others at risk for a good fight a few times already. I always thought I would make up for it by defeating my enemies and ensuring everyone's safety, but would someone that cared for others willingly put those people at risk?”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ758Ba7ABa4
Master Roshi: “Your problem is not the fighting, my boy. Even those born for a certain lust can find balance in their life. Saiyans grow old too, eventually you will have to stop fighting one day, and when that day comes, do you know what you're going to do?”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YKJK7hQhR
Goku: “Well, honestly I never thought about it. I never focused on the future unless it involved my training. I just preferred living in the moment and enjoying every second, that always worked for me. Until now.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpS6cIWX8m
Master Roshi: “There's no shame in enjoying the present, but the present soon becomes the past and eventually, the future. You have to start considering what your plan will be once your past is no longer the reality you face in the present.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHxUvUHPLb
The old master and his former student remained in silence while they laid down each on their own hammock like they would many years ago.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYw7vhMhJG
Master Roshi: “Go home, son. Face your problem with the people who care about you the most. You're only avoiding the inevitable and fixing nothing.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gLNBNUhG6
Goku: “You're right, Master Roshi. I just can't yet, tomorrow, tomorrow I will make things right, but tonight, the comfort of my wise master might be just what I need.”

The pods landed on earth, in the middle of a small town. Kasai and the others stepped out of their pods, revealing themselves to the startled citizens who were awoken from the crash. Pouwar and Nozomu gazed around their surroundings. The environment was foreign and mysterious to them. Kasai on the other hand, did not bother to examine his location, his sight was set on a certain point.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSFSfixQ9f
Kasai: “My visions guide me to a house, a house residing in the middle of large, green lands. Follow me, I shall lead us to our destination.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuFs08Zu5l
Without uttering a word to the people around them, the three took off, rapidly crossing miles and miles in less than seconds. Goku immediately raised his guard as he sensed the powerful trio crossing the planet.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdg1m6UzFU
Goku: Is that the other me? No. There's three of them. I don't recognize these energies at all!
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdHgK1QS4v
The house trembled, waking Goten from his slumber. He rubbed his eye as he walked up to the window to figure out where the commotion came from.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlDS7TrUHy
Goten: “Huh? Woahhh! Who are these people?”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtTFAVkAoX
Chi-chi woke up and rushed to her son.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGV4stpPB2w
Chi-chi: “Goten! What's going on?”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowSEfzC0zC
The door was smashed open, Kasai and the others entered the house. Kasai stared at Goten with a cold look and spoke no words.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVzvWWSGGa
Chi-chi: “Get out of my house! You're not welcome here!”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5krgb9eur9
She took her fighting stance.
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJhnO2wedG
Chi-chi:” Goten! Get out of here, go to Gohan, okay sweetie?”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOE98zxaKd
Goten: “But mom, these guys look pretty mean, I don't want to leave you alone with them!”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTLZ3cLGcM
Nozomu: “What's the plan, Kasai?”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltmOteqg6E
Kasai: “The little one resembles our attacker quite a lot. I assume it's his child. The other one must be the mother.”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjbjmMeQ5Y
Pouwar: “So we give them a little scare to lure in the real target? Now we're talking!”
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdY4k5dxl0B
Kasai: “No. A mere scare is too generous, forgive me Amaterazu, but as a soldier, I do believe in an eye for an eye, and one of his most valuable ones is standing right before us.”
