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.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2OKScIU2p
The hurting prince listened to the ongoing commotion of his subjects as they awaited his presence outside the castle.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWHguzVggm
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.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6T0BzEs9e
Nozomu and Pouwar entered the room together.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvNBhLKGzo
Nozomu: “We're prepared for departure, Kasai.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyW5bBMLcBu
Pouwar: “Let's go kick some ass!”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKZIKZq5Nk
Kasai: “I'll be there momentarily. Reveal yourselves in the mean time, I don't want to keep fueling their impatience further.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAwhL5lYpp
Nozomu: “Understood.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiZcSFUe1e
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.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLyBvFwJBD
"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!"
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0BJ9ju803
Kasai took the pendants, receiving them with a smile.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuzdVbNYr4
Kasai: “Thank you, I feel more confident already!”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8u5v4JcikI
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.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3loBVSg7Z
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!”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlYoG4Zx9k
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.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u2Hmp7znd
Nozomu: “Kasai, what troubles you?”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvj9CanH3WH
He communicated through a radio within the pods. Kasai broke out of his pondering head.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcuan1SIzs
Kasai: “What do you speak of? My friend.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqSmAcXSwo
Nozomu: “Your roster displays unease, did your visions reveal something?”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRjuQRTvZl
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.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEHYGHFg6P
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!”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaMzjFdoZs
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.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWduAfScanU
Nozomu: “All we can do now, is trust Amaterazu will lead us to the correct path, lead you to the correct path.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKcsnlKTT8
Kasai: “Right.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWTQ4eEMRR
Nozomu: “You're not in this alone, Kasai. I'll be by your side for every last moment!”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3xRZGtP0K
Kasai: “I can always count on you, Nozomu.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmN5jVBmlXJ
Pouwar: “Hey, I think that's enough chatter don't you guys agree? I need my rest; I can hear everything you say!”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DZ1ynEJ3a
Kasai and Nozomu were startled. They shut themselves off in silence out of shame.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qZ0uRNdR1
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.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhryiWB26C
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."
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3PQ0gj1qk
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?”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTxw7eJJox
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?”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAQF1nTEJR
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.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CUuE04nCD
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.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48zayUjRdX
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.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiap9i7zxW
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.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcJssmLQ2j
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.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjUTUXEeQw
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.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpixj0fZp7h
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.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9ocUYD5cE
Goku: Is that the other me? No. There's three of them. I don't recognize these energies at all!
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGLzeqoCEO
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.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQhYpL7LJx
Goten: “Huh? Woahhh! Who are these people?”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme6iNOZMS6
Chi-chi woke up and rushed to her son.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VdYJcTxJ4
Chi-chi: “Goten! What's going on?”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPW4EHWynBc
The door was smashed open, Kasai and the others entered the house. Kasai stared at Goten with a cold look and spoke no words.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvZZ0VgmDh
Chi-chi: “Get out of my house! You're not welcome here!”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiXu2jx3Dp
She took her fighting stance.
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5T2r8wgI80
Chi-chi:” Goten! Get out of here, go to Gohan, okay sweetie?”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrRF4AKb9T
Goten: “But mom, these guys look pretty mean, I don't want to leave you alone with them!”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxARuttaFE
Nozomu: “What's the plan, Kasai?”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipbAmR8z8q
Kasai: “The little one resembles our attacker quite a lot. I assume it's his child. The other one must be the mother.”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9oD7IL5mp
Pouwar: “So we give them a little scare to lure in the real target? Now we're talking!”
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw26pKvgEp8
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.”
