Black Gohan and Susanoo, but as a DBXV illustration! I'm still not totally convinced but for now I don't have any other ideas aside from a cover art so this will suffice lol

I swear if this DLC comes out when I’m out of town next week, I’m going to loose it xD

Also! I’ve been thinking about my Fu character analysis document. (Currently, I need to play through the game again to record or take pictures of parts to show as examples for my reasoning. But that will take some time as October is going to be a busy month) There is a part of me that wants to just release it straight up to the public, but then the other part of me says to just give it to people who ask to see it. This character analysis is how the Fu in my story runs off, so I am not sure if that would really count as spoilers or not for my story if I post it publicly ^^’

One of the hardest parts of A Light in The Darkest of Tunnels I had to write so far.

Probably going to be riding a lot more heart wrenching stuff at times.

Another one was definitely the letter too......

Hey, you! I've got a fun new side story I'm working on, and I even drew a cover for it! I would appreciate any and all reads and feedback, thanks!

Some additional information on this is that it's written as a side story for my main character in a DB roleplay server I run, that character's name being Marmalade. However, I'm writing it so that you don't have to have any prior context of what she's done in there, which is why I'm posting it here! Any context you may need is given to you, or can just be picked up through context clues. As I said, this series that I will occasionally update is mainly a side one based on fun scenarios and character building, so you can get connected even if you knew nothing beforehand! I can give any additional information as well, if requested. :)

What will be seen in this solo series primarily includes, but will not be limited to:

Marmalade's relationship with her family, mainly with her Uncle Heezit

Marmalade's relationship with her mentor, the enigmatic CEO of the modern day's Capsule Corporation, Dr. Jean

Marmalade's life at school

Low-scale, more down-to-earth, sometimes silly or strange time-related events that will occur in Marmalade's town. The kind of stuff that a Time Patroller wouldn't see as too important, but a vigilante "Unlicensed" Time Patroller would

And more

DRAGON BALL ALL-TIME: EPISODE 1!!

Welcome to DRAGON BALL ALL-TIME! An improvised story, written by two different writers! Please enjoy, if you follow along!=== [BEGIN] [WRITER 1] Years after the events of the DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE games, the Time Patrol was still a thriving group telling off all time-bending baddies! Due to the ever-changing operation though, the patrol was always expanding, so Conton City has since been made larger, and a new city is even in the works! You can already see some additions that have made their mark, such as...

The God of Destruction of Time

Like the Supreme Kai of Time, there too exists a God of Destruction of Time. There's much more to discuss about that, but... Today, we introduce ourselves to the newest to take on the mantle! 

The God of Destruction of Time must go undercover as an ordinary Time Patroller in order to properly dictate what timelines need to be destroyed, vs. ones that simply need their distortions cleared as usual. So, the newest god, Daquiri, is tasked with the same, currently on her way to being introduced to her brand new Time Patrol team!

But... Will she get along with them? Her team leader is quite strict and astute, so the surprisingly meek destroyer god may not be able to keep up her cover for long... Daquiri isn't too comfortable letting others know of her position yet, since if other Patrollers knew that the God of Destruction of Time was among them on missions, they may grow too intimidated and mess up their tasks! So, Daquiri must be the one to survive being intimidated instead... It's a cruel world.

A cruel world that's about to be burst open... Now! [WRITER 2] "So you really don't have any books related to Time Manipulation...? Asking for safety reasons, of course."

"I'm afraid that information is well kept in the Time Vault, or the Capsule Corporation database, depending on the manipulation method."

A pair of patrollers would be discussing matters inside of a lonely library.

One of them appeared to be a Kai, her pointy ears and attire being strong indicators. She wore a badge over her uniform, indicating that she was an 'Elite-ranked Patroller'.

On the other side, a Frieza Clansmen -or rather, clanswomen- listened to her leader.

"I understand that, thanks for clearing it up. In any case, I believe our new team member should be arriving soon." The purple-skinned Kai says, changing the topic.

"Hm? The one that Magma assigned to us himself?" The other woman inquires.

"That would be correct. He didn't rely much information to me, so I expect that they are able to give us more details about themselves." [WRITER 1] Soon, the library wouldn't be as lonely since a new lady walked in during the two's conversation.

The first thing you could tell about her is that she was tall, almost comically so, as she had to bend underneath entryways to not bump into them. The second key factor of the lady's appearance was that she had the face of a dog - not as in she's ugly, but a literal dog! Of course, the God of Destruction Beerus is a cat, so now we have a dog. "... O-oh, yoohoo!" But... The final inkling of her appearance was probably the most important of all. Despite being a big dog, her expression might as well have been a puppy's, her shaky figure joining her soft frame. She gulps a little, keeping up a polite smile.

"I-i'm Eireni, your new teammate!... Wait--" The lady smacks herself immediately. "No, you're Eireni, I'm Daquiri! Uhm... Hi!"

"..."

She sweats. Not only was she feeling nervous about being out of her God of Destruction attire and donning casual clothes instead, but she even botched her greeting! 

“....................”

Daquiri keeps a big smile as she screams internally. "I hope we can be friends!" [WRITER 2] Eiréni and her teammate exchange glances, and then they both reply with a similar smile.

"Welcome, I'm Ava! Please, have a seat." The Frieza clanswomen gestures to a third chair awaiting next to their table.

"Welcome indeed, I am Eiréni, as you have already pointed out. I'll be your team leader from now on." The Kai replies, nodding to the chair as well.

"We can get on all that technical time patrolling stuff later on. But for now, we rather know more about yourself, if you're willing to share." [WRITER 1] "U-uh, thanks!"

Daquiri smiles, smiling and dying inside all the way towards the chair. She sits down, and... Crack! "!!" The chair snapped a bit beneath her large body. However, she just tries to hide it, using her long skirt to cover up the broken leg as she never lets up her intensely sweating smile. "Thanks for the warm greeting!" There was something else she was trying to 'cover up', too. "Oh, me? Well, like I said, my name is Daquiri, and I'm the new God of--" She immediately puts a hand in front of her mouth, thinking, "O-oh, shoot...!"

She almost slipped up already!

"...G-god of... Sewing...!" "I don't even know how to sew??" "Yeah!" 

“........... . . .. . .”

Daquiri kept shaking.

[WRITER 2] "God... of sewing? Can't say I have ever heard state something so daring." Eiréni comments, glancing at Daquiri's chair momentarily after hearing it snap, but continues as if nothing happened.

"Mhm. You must be really good at it, hm? Come to think of it, I could use a new suit, this one is a bit worn out after all these years." Ava pulls at her white suit. [WRITER 1] "Oh, I see! Well, it is quite the suit! I could help you fix it sometime!" Not unless Ava wanted it to be ripped to shreds.

"U-uhm, uhh..." Daquiri clears her throat. "Sooo... Magma, the head of the Elite Time Patrol! He told me some stuff about you two before sticking me in your team!" She says. "Ava, you're... One of the city's librarians, correct? That explains the surroundings then, haha!"

"Aaand... Eireni..." Daquiri began to shake a little more. Something about that Kai's gaze felt so critical... "...O-one of the newest Elites, right?" Gulp. She hopes she didn't get that wrong.

[WRITER 2] "Correct. I'm glad Magma took that into account when arranging our meeting. It would've been somewhat of an issue if you had come here on a busier day." Ava explains.

"Certainly one of the newest, I was ascended not too long ago. It almost caught me off-guard, I thought it would never happen at this point." Eiréni replies. [WRITER 1] "Oh, I see! That's good to hear." Daquiri smiles. "I'm a new Time Patroller myself. I joined because..." She racks her brain. "...N-no particular reason..." She gulps again.

But, then she clears her throat. "Sooo, Ava, got any reading recommendations?" She asks. "Anything on the God of Destruction of Time position, perhaps?" She almost couldn't get more obvious. "It better not say anything weird!"

[WRITER 2] "Hm? Oh, I'm sure there must be some volumes speaking about the topic on the Deities section. Don't expect much though, the position is still fairly new, after all." Ava points out, as she glances over to a specifc aisle.

"That's true. I wonder if they've even appointed anyone yet." Eiréni comments. [WRITER 1] "W-well, there have been a few in the past, but... They all seemed to..."

She shakes her head. "N-not that I would be too studied on the topic, eheh!" Daquiri adjusts her seating.

...

And that makes her fully break her chair. "GAAAH!" She looked like a spilled plate of spaghetti, laid out on the floor among wood chips.

[WRITER 2] "Erm, are you okay?" Ava goes over to Daquiri to help her stand up.

"Do you have any other chairs around here that aren't made of cheap wood?" Eiréni asks, not as concerned as her teammate. "They can't just go breaking down because someone is shaking nervously on them..." [WRITER 1] "I-I'm oka--" Eireni's final sentence almost made Daquiri burst out and cry. "I-I'm not shaking...!" She was.

Her eyes dart around the room. She wanted to find something to take the attention away from her. "U-uhm, I know!" Spotting a board game on one of the shelves, a thought comes to her immediately. Without giving it much mulling over, she spits out, "H-how about we play '2 Truths 1 Lie'? That'd be a great way to get to know each other!"

She smiles.

...

And she also sits on her knees in front of the table, there not being much of a difference between that and a chair due to her height. "S-sorry about the chair, by the way! You can take it out of my paycheck!" The God in hiding tries to quickly move past it.

[WRITER 2] "A childish game as a method for an interview? Just who does she-"

"That sounds nice, Daquiri. May I ask you to go first?" Ava interjects, having noticed a subtle annoyance in Eiréni's expression. [WRITER 1] "E-eh? Uhm... Sure! I can try!" She was hoping to have time to think while they went first. Oh no.

"...Eeehm... Uuuhhhh..."

Why was Eireni looking at her like that?? She gulps, trying to think faster.

"O-okay!" Daquiri takes a deep breath. 

"I... Know how to sew."

"I've played basketball with Lord Zen-Oh before."

"I, uh... Like 'Skooby Snacks'."

She exhales. "N-now, you both have to pick which you think is the lie!" Nervous smile.

[WRITER 2] Both Patrollers squinted at Daquiri, carefully processing each statement.

"Hm... I'd say it was playing basketball with Lord Zen-Oh... I've never heard of him interacting with any mortal, outside of a certain incident." Ava replies, then glancing at Eiréni, who seemed deep in thought still.

"What is a 'Skooby Snacks'...?" [WRITER 1] "Oh, uh... They're, uh... Uh... Dog food..." Daquiri mumbles, before scratching the back of her head and laughing while saying, "E-ehehe, yeah! It sounds quite silly, but, uh, I did! He thought I was tall!" She looks around nervously. "No other reason he'd play with a mortal, haha!"

"And, oh, uh, yeah, I lied about being able to sew." She says. "I, uh, wasn't telling the truth earlier when I said I could... Uhhh..."

Death.

"Y-your turn!" Daquiri randomly points at one of them, wanting to change the subject. When she found her finger landed towards Eireni, she shook, and changed to Ava. "I-I meant you!"

[WRITER 2] "Oh? Alright." Ava nods, taking a minute to think.

"Let's see... I get my hair done often, I've taken books out of my own library without paying, and I can speak around 20 languages." She listed.

"Hm. You made it quite easy." Eiréni comments. [WRITER 1] "Oh, uh!--" Daquiri goes to comment immediately, but she hears Eireni's remark. "She made it... Easy?" Oh no! What if she gets it wrong??

She panics. 

"Uhm, uhh... Uhm!!..." Not knowing what to do with her hands, she flails somewhat before pointing a finger up and claiming, "Uhh, the lie is about your hair!"

"Wait, no--"

"You've taken books out!"

"No, that would be wrong--"

"20 languages!"

She stiffens. She ended up picking all three! "Aah...!" "U-uh, just go with the last one I said! Final answer!" [WRITER 2] "Wrong, I'm afraid. I would never take a book out without paying its respective value. I might the one in charge of this library, but that does not put me above the rules." Ava corrects.

"Polishing her hair also counts as getting it done, and last time I checked, she knows 19 languages, to be exact." Eiréni clarifies.

"yeah but twenty is a prettier number and makes me sound smarter-"

"Uh-huh. So I take it that it's my turn now, correct?" Eiréni asks, now slightly amused. [WRITER 1] "Wait, so I was right...?" Daquiri looks around, stunned. "Yay!!" She smiles gleefully, all tension from her fading for a moment as she claps her hands excitedly. "W-wow, Ms. Ava! That's wonderful! I only know one language, ehehe!"

She returns to panic. "U-uhm... Yeah!" Daquiri responds to Eireni, finding herself scooting closer to Ava.

[WRITER 2] "Hm." Eiréni places her hand under her chin, thinking.

"I like women." She states.

Dead silence.

"Uhm, Eiréni... You're supposed to state three different things." Ava remarks, nudging her leader.

"..."

"My contribution to this game has ended." She replies with a deadpan tone. [WRITER 1] "U-uh--"

Looking like a dog, one might assume that Daquiri was 'not too fond of gay people'. However, she only really seemed shocked by the suddenness of it.

"...Uuuhm..."

"Is that the lie??" Daquiri dimwittedly asks, having never had an intelligent thought. "I don't get it..." She looks at Ava for help.

[WRITER 2]

Ava merely tilts her head. "Why do you seem so confused?"

[WRITER 1] "I, uhh... Uhh..."

"I didn't know girls could like girls."

"So it's the lie, right?"

"But she didn't say anything else..."

"Uuuhm..."

"..."

[WRITER 2] "Perhaps we should leave it at that, lest you get further confused." Ava recommends with a slight chuckle.

Eiréni remained silent, just listening to the two while dying inside. [WRITER 1] "Uuuhm.. Okay??"

"Uuh, I guess it's my turn now..."

"..."

Daquiri puts a hand on her chin, thinking.

"Hmm... I should saaay... I should say that I'm a god! Then say it's a lie, because then they won't suspect me..."

"But, that would be an actual lie! Aw!"

"Then maybe I should saaay... I don't like Ms. Eireni's hair..."

"But that would be the lie!"

"But I'm supposed to come up with a lie!"

Before long, birds were spinning around her head. She was trying to figure out how to not feel guilty in a game about lies.

"O-okay, I have them!"

"...Uuh... I... Played basketball... With Whis..."

"I like Ms. Eireni's hairstyle."

"The sentence I'm saying right now... Is the truth!"

She smiles with flushed cheeks. "U-uh, guess!"

[WRITER 2] "Hm... You really like playing basketball, hm? However, this time I am certain that it's a lie. I doubt any Angel would dedicate themselves to sports when they have many other important matters to be concerned with." Ava guesses.

"A-and...!" Ahem. "And, should the sentence were you claim to be saying the truth not be true, you wouldn't have been able to state it as fact." Eiréni ends up re-joining the game. [WRITER 1] "Well, uhh... People just like playing it with me since I'm tall!" Daquiri says. "It was on the same day, too! Mr. Whis walked up to me like 'My, my, I had no idea that gods could be so ballin' then he--"

"--I mean, not that I would be a god, uhh--"

"..."

Eireni... Proved why Daquiri's lie didn't make sense. That was going to be the lie. "...U-uhm..." Trying not to look dumb, she blurts out, "T-the hair thing was the lie!"

"WAIT, I'M NOT TRYING TO SAY IT'S BAD--"

Daquiri holds her head in her hands, wanting to scream as she tries to incoherently murmur an excuse. "I-it's a lie because... I love the hair, not like..!" She really should have thought this game out before picking it...

[WRITER 2] Ava and Eiréni exchange glances once again.

"So we are expected to believe that deities approach you merely for your ability to be 'so ballin'?" The Kai inquires.

"Why not?" The other woman interjects.

"Ava, you should know well at this point that gods do not 'ball', did you forget?"

"Maybe you are the one that doesn't 'ball'?" Ava suggests, snickering. [WRITER 1] "U-uhm, well, I'm sure they would let you, if you wanted! The Supreme Kai of Time shows up for the games sometimes!" The god says. "...Though, uh, she's not very good because she's short... And, uh..."

"..."

"Y-your turn!" Dodging any other criticism, she nudges Ava. Despite it being just a nudge, she was so nervous that she couldn't control her strength, so it hurt quite a bit... "O-oh, sorry!!" [WRITER 2] Ava winced slightly, but she just nodded, accepting the apology. Where does all her patience come from?

"Hm..."

"I have more hobbies outside of reading."

"...My shirt size is between S and M."

"My favorite color is a very specific shade of blue. ...There you go!" [WRITER 1] "...Hmmm..." Daquiri puts a hand on her chin, inspecting Ava. She tugs at her shirt a little. "No, not it..." She looks at Ava. Daquiri gasps, having an epiphany. "Oh, I know it! You're blue, so clearly, you must like blue! The lie is about your hobbies!" 

She sounded very confident. "I-I don't have very many hobbies myself, ehehe..." She scratches her head shyly, blushing.

[WRITER 2] "uhm"

"Well, at least she didn't make fun of me for it, I guess...?" Ava sighs, nodding to Daquiri.

"You are correct. If I'm not reading or working, I usually find myself without nothing else to do." She admits, somewhat embarrassed. [WRITER 1] "Oh, well, uhm, maybe I could read with you, sometime!" Daquiri suggests, smiling gleefully. "I could show you some of my hobbies, too!"

"Like basketball."

"Which sometimes involves gods... For no particular reason!"

"..."

Sweat.

"U-uhm, your turn, Ms. Eireni!" Her cheerfulness began to fade into stiffness yet again.

[WRITER 2] "Oh, uhm, sure thing!" Ava smiles back.

"...Me again?" Eiréni scratches her head. 

"I thought I had lost the game." [WRITER 1] "Y-you did?" Daquiri asks. "I didn't know you could lose..."

"But, uh, I'll go instead, then!" In actuality, she took the chance to not accidentally end up saying something off kilter about Eireni.

"...Uuuhm..."

But now she has to rack her brain again!

"Aaagh... I-i can't keep lying! I'm running out things to say..."

"...Maybe I can..."

"..."

Daquiri began to hold her head, looking quite unsettled.

"I don't want them to judge me...!"

[WRITER 2] "Hm... I didn't know that either..." Ava comments, glancing at Eiréni.

"..."

They both turned their gaze back at Daquiri, expectant. [WRITER 1] "...!!"

She notices immediately. Her heart pounds!

"U-uh, just say something!"

"Uh, I just peed myself!"

"......"

"I also played basketball with the Grand Priest once."

"......"

"I am the God of Destruction of Time."

She began to shake like a cartoon skeleton, making chattering noises.

[WRITER 2] "Uh..."

"That is... disgusting, if true..." Eiréni speaks up. "However, I must assume that is the lie. I'm inclined to believe that you have at least enough dignity to be able to handle yourself in such a situation. Following your previous statements of having 'balled' with other higher ranked deities, I doubt you would lie about someone like the Grand Priest. Being the God of Destruction of Time would explain why you are able to meet up with said deities too." She analyzes, staring directly into Daquiri's eyes as she broke down her thought process.

"That's true, but maybe she did pee herself...? Sometimes you are a bit... You know..." Ava interjects.

"a bit what" [WRITER 1] "............"

With each passing word, Daquiri shakes more, her pupils dilating. There was some kind of strange puddle under her, too...

"Uh no I havent played basketball with the Grand Priest he doesn't like it"

"...."

"I peed and also I'm the god of destruction of time"

She screams internally.

"I-i didn't want them to look at me differently...! But... It feels worse to lie and try to be someone else!"

"......"

She looks at her wrist. "Oh, wow, would you look at the time!" She didn't have a watch. "Gotta go bye"

Within seconds, she was gone.

[WRITER 2] "!!!!?!??!?"

The duo was utterly shaken, to say the least.

"WE HAVE BEEN SEATING IN FRONT OF A GOD THIS WHOLE AFTERNOON?!" Eiréni exclaims. Ava merely replies with a sigh. "A god that peed on one of my chairs..."

[WRITER 1] Actually, she peed on the floor. She broke the chair a while ago!

Upcoming AO3 Fanfic Crossover Announcement!

Well it's that time of this year, folks. I'm currently making an AO3 fic that is based on my day dreams, a strong idea that is floating for a while now, and lots of inspiration. This is a massive crossover between Minecraft Modded and a huge amount of stuff (Including: Hololive, Treasure Planet (2002), Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 (2016), Super Dragon Ball Heroes, Spazmatic Banana (Youtuber), etc) for this fanfiction that i'm working on.

It's a big project of a fanfic and it contains a lot of swearing and some dark humor so i'm currently working on the first chapter as of right now. However, i'll need a bit of help as soon as i upload my first AO3 fic to the public so hit me up on Discord (selfKaiHarness) for any advice, assistance, heck even a co-creator request would be handy!

This is my magnum opus of a fanfic and i plan there will be a lot of chapters with continued storytelling as much as i can without facing burnout and writer's block. This will be also my first fanfic on Ao3 in a while so i've learned a lot through roleplays throughout the years while making this.

The Ao3 fic is called 'Between Many Worlds Vol 1: Discoveries and Explorations' in case if you're wondering.

Please be patient as i'm working on this fic to the smartest of my degree can handle as well as making sure this fic has little or no grammar errors as possible. Once it's ready, i'll notify you when it's all ready. But right now, it's half-way done in the oven and needs more time to bake.

(Note: I'll never do some smut fics and any kind of explicit fics. Just so that i can comfortably work on my future teen and up to mature fics and nothing more.)

Dragon Ball New Frontier tales of the Time Patrol: A matter of perspective, and the Ultimate Truth….

The trudging of the snow was heard as the Saiyan Prince of fire mountain trudged through the snow covered Forest. Thoughts swarming like a storm of tidal waves as he thought more and more about the voices he had been hearing as of late. The sounds of someone seemingly calling to him. This voice had been calling out to him for several weeks now. Months even perhaps. But the voice wasn't so loud before he entered this Forest, and the more he ventured into it, the louder it became. He was close. Approaching the ruins of a temple of some kind, Goku Jr could feel a strong presence as he drew closer and closer to the energy source of where it was from. Upon entering the ruins, he could feel the tension in the air. The cold freezing air so cold that a drop sweat could feel like a dagger lightly rubbing against your skin. Goku Jr fell to the presents nearby and it was clear that he wasn't alone.

"I know you're here," the time patroller said calmly but assertively. Making it clear that he was aware of their presence. And knew they were there. "Make yourself known." He paid attention to the energy signatures and realized it was familiar as if he had met this before. It was at that point he had realized that this was the one that had been calling him all this time. Seeing a cloaked individual walking towards him calmly and quietly before sitting down in a part of the Temple a few feet from the Saiyan. It was at that point Goku Jr could realize that this man was merely here to talk.

"I heard your voice calling to me in my dreams," Goku Jr. finally spoke again with words to confirm that this was the same person to which a nod was given as confirmation. "Who are you? Why have you called me to this place?"

The concealed figure took a moment to observe the time patroller as he was asked these questions. His posture was calm and collected as he sat up. "Who I am matters less than why I have called you here," the mysterious man answered truthfully. Taking off his hood revealing similar messy hair that Goku Jr would recognize before removing his own mask revealing a similar face, a similar red bandana on his forehead worn like a headband, and a scar on his cheek that the Saiyan Prince of Fire Mountain immediately recognized. "You already know who I am. All of the various gods have whispered it to you."

Goku Jr took a moment to process what he had just heard and then recognized that this was a Saiyan. "Bardock from an alternate future," Goku Jr finally said and he saw the man before him and acknowledgment. "To be specific a version who was a time patroller that became a Time Breaker and then came back to the light. Why would you call me here to this place?"

"Because even after all of the accomplishments you've made in the Time Patrol, you still have such little understanding of the world," the alternate version of Goku Jr's grandfather simply answered. His demeanor was much calmer than what Goku Jr had expected as he continued to sit there but his eyes were piercing towards the younger Saiyan. "You've learned so much but yet you still know so little.... You still don't understand the world and how it works. Not fully."

Goku Jr could not help but feel a great sense of confusion from hearing all of this. There was so much he wanted to ask or to counter. What was this version of his grandfather saying? "Along with the rest of the time Patrol, I've been working so hard to make sure that the world has been in balance," he slowly began to explain trying to find the words carefully as he thought about it deeper. So much he wanted to explain all of the things that not only he has done but everyone that exists in the Time Patrol. All of the accomplishments of every mortal in God who have actively tried to preserve balance in all of reality. To protect it at all costs. "We serve the light to the best of our ability, and try to resist the temptations of the dark..... As many of the gods have intended..."

The strange version of Bardock took a moment to process everything he was told. Taking every detail in before taking a deep breath and letting out a sigh. It was clear that he had called him for the right reasons. It was time to share the truth about the world. The world that Goku Jr will be forced to live in, the world that all living beings have to live in. A world that many do not understand, nor the problems with the true world. And how every single living being may unintentionally be playing a part in the many problems of it. "The light..." He then began to explain. "The dark... These are nothing but fragments of a much greater truth. A truth beyond the understanding of most people in the entire Omniverse." He then took a moment to think about how to word his next thoughts carefully. "Tell me Goku, do you genuinely believe that the world that we live in, across all timelines realities, universes, realms, and multiverses are as binary and straightforward as all of your friends, family and comrades, along with other gods and angels teach?"

Goku Jr took a moment to think about what he heard as he thought about the words carefully. Trying to figure out how to say the words that he needed to say. The thoughts swarming like a storm is he slowly began to think about what he wanted to say. "The world is balance," Goku Jr tried to explain. "The light preserves life and the darkness consumes it. And I've seen the consequences of both."

"Ah yes, balance," the alternate version of Bardock then said in a calm manner. "A word spoken so often, but rarely understood. You believe that the light and the dark are separate. Opposites in an eternal struggle of chaos. But what if they're not? What if they are one? A river, or perhaps even an ocean of many currents, and many directions flowing endlessly."

"That sounds like the teachings of a Time breaker or a demon god," Goku Jr pointed out as he thought about it more and more. "I've seen the power of darkness twist minds and people's way of thinking. Bending it to various types of selfish will. I've seen that darkness twist the minds of individuals that were innocent at first but became monsters in the end. It destroys."

The alternate version of Bardock then took a deep breath before he then spoke the words carefully. It wasn't the fact that what he had to say was meeting to be watched but rather how he could explain it to the best of his ability. "I was a time Breaker once, as well as a soldier of the Frieza Force," this version of Bardock said. "I wielded the darkness as my power multiple times, and yes, it destroys. But so does the light, Goku. Those not willing to listen or to truly understand different perspectives have destroyed, on all sides. Demons, mortals, and gods alike. Many individuals with their refusal to act. Their blind adherence to their own principles, regardless of what they were, destroyed civilizations, worlds and even galaxies, and more. Entire generations throughout history lost because many clung on to their own sense of righteousness."

Goku Jr remains calm but he felt every word that he heard as he took a deep breath trying to explain everything. "The Time Patrol has learned from their mistakes," Goku Jr began to explain as he slowly but surely thought of the words to say. "The Time Patrol serves the people of the Omniverse. Not dogma and principles."

The alternate Bardock looked at the other saying as he slowly began to challenge that perspective. "Have you?" He asked him carefully but it was clear that he was challenging the younger Time Patroller's perspective but not in a condescending or hateful way. "Or do you simply wear different chains? The world does not belong to the Time Patrol, the Time Breakers, nor anyone else in that matter. It is beyond your teachings, and even beyond mine. Beyond anyone's of that matter. It is Life, death, creation and destruction. And yet you, like many before you, from various different sides of the world spectrum, simply seek to control it. Turn it into something safe. Something that you could comprehend."

Goku Jr looked down a bit as he thought about it more. Staring deeply at the snow beneath him as he finally took a deep breath. "Perhaps that is true," he then finally confessed. Clearly deep in thought as he thought about everything and taking the words he heard into consideration. Perhaps there was a clear intent of understanding this perspective and way of thinking rather than trying to outright denounce it. "But without guidance, the world becomes pure chaos. We have both seen and experienced what happens when power is completely left unchecked by anyone."

The alternate version of Bardock then slowly but surely looked down a bit before looking back at the Younger Saiyan. It was clear that there was more understanding from this Saiyan than he originally believed. "Unchecked power is not the world's flaw Goku," the Scarred Saiyan then reminded the other. "Rather it is ours. You, like some, fear chaos, so you impose order. There are others who fear insignificance so they seek and impose dominance and self-validation. Both are prisons, built by those too afraid to face the ultimate truth if the world."

"And what is that truth?" Goku Jr then questioned as he slowly but surely showed a bit of caution with the words spoken next until they were spoken.

"That the world simply does not care," the alternate version of Bardock simply said. His voice was still calm and collected but there was adamancy and absolution in those words. "It does not choose sides. Nor side with anyone. It simply is. The Time Patrol, many of the demon realm, and many others across the Omniverse, we've tried to bend it to our will and our way of thinking, and to define it. But the world does not bend to our will and it is beyond definition. It is freedom itself. And freedom is terrifying."

Goku Jr then began to look down and it was easy to see the doubt in his expression. Not of what he was hearing but of the world as a whole. It was clear that he was now questioning his own beliefs and philosophies. "If what you say is true, then what would be the point in fighting?" He then began to ask as he slowly but surely was showing more of his doubt as he began to question more. And he had every right to question what he was hearing in fact it was encouraged by the one he was speaking to. What the Saiyan Prince of Fire Mountain did not realize was that this version of Bardock wasn't trying to force him to believe one way. But rather to question every belief, including his own. "What would be the point in struggling at all against anything?"

"Because it is the struggle that defines us, Goku," this version of Bardock said softly, but firmly as well. Clear words of wisdom rather than condemnation. "Not the outcome. Not being right or wrong. Not victory or defeat. Nor success or failure. It is in the struggle that we go through that we find meaning. It allows us to broaden our horizons and perspectives. It is the struggle that gives us purpose. Allowing us to grow and improve. I fought as a savior, as a destroyer, and as something in between. And through it all, I've learned this very truth. I've learned that if you truly wish to understand the world, you must let go of your need to control it."

"To let go of everything?" Goku Jr then began to question and there was a bit of hesitation and fear in his voice. Clear doubt and for the first time ever here, uncertainty in this entire conversation.

"Of your fear," the older, and even wiser saiyan then began to say. The words now truly understood from the other as he spoke further. "Your pride, Your certainty, and your need to be "correct". Only then will you be able to see the world for what it truly is. Infinite, untamed, unpredictable, and beautiful. The answers you seek will not come easily, but if you are willing to open your mind and allow yourself to truly see, they will eventually come."

It was at that point the two began to part ways in different directions with the alternate version of Bardock walking further into the forest and Goku Jr going back the way he came. Once this version of Bardock had disappeared from Goku Jr.'s line of sight, he fully began to head back home. His mind swelling with thoughts of this whole encounter. He came here seeking answers. Now he was leaving with much greater wisdom.

Reign of the Super Saiyans!

It's still kind of surreal that I'm here, posting the part of the fic that I'm currently posting. I guess I should explain the significance of "The Kid Goes Wild" while the moment is fresh.

So in 1990, they made a little movie called Robocop 2, and the trailer captured my imagination and never really let it go. I was only 13 at the time, so I hadn't seen the first Robocop, but I had seen his crappy animated series, and I knew enough kids in school who just got to watch R-rated movies whenever they wanted, so I had some general idea of what it was about. All that mattered to me was that in the sequel, they introduced a second Robocop. The characters in the movie acted like it was easier to just replace the guy with a new model, except Robocop 2 was built with a criminal brain, so now it's up to original Robocop to arrest him. So the movie was promoted as this awesome fight between the classic original and the upstart succesor, and this badass song plays through the trailer, like all hell has broken loose.

Decades later, I finally sat down to watch all the movies, and it doesn't quite live up to the hype. The whole movie sets up this inevitable fight, and then it finally happens, but there's really only so much you can do with these two characters. Robocop 1 isn't exactly what you'd call "nimble" and Robocop 2 is depicted almost entirely in stop-motion. Just getting both of them in the same shot is a logistical challenge. Most of the fight is them chasing or shooting each other.

Much of the early 90's was spent having various powerful characters get into fights with newer versions of themselves. Batman broke his back and appointed a new Batman, then came back to fight him. Terminator 2 turned the villain from the first movie good, then pitted him against an even deadlier Terminator. Superman died and then four new Supermen showed up to take his place, and then all five of them fought in what might as well have been a tournament. The original Superman won, of course, but only through the combined power of mullets, partial nudity, and vibration...

... I'm sorry, did you think I was joking? No. This is why Goku can never beat Superman. Saitama who? What good is one punch if you never vibrate your arm afterward?

Obviously Goku was no exception to this phenomenon, as Vegeta turned into a Super Saiyan shortly after him, and Cell was introduced as a superior version of both of them, and then Broly was introduced as a more "worthy" claimant to the "Legendary Super Saiyan" title. Of course, I didn't know about any of this going on in Japan, but once I did find out about it around 2000, I got on board very quickly.

When I came up with Luffa in 2004 or so, I was trying to think of fanfiction ideas for Dragon Ball Z, and I decided the one avenue left unexplored was the ancient Super Saiyan that Vegeta spoke of in Episode 66. In a lot of ways, defining that character was sort of a critique of Z-Broly, who was presented as a sort of realization of the Super Saiyan Legend, but never quite checked all the boxes for me. My biggest gripe with Movie 8 is that Goku needed help to defeat Broly, when the point should have been that Goku is the true inheritor to the legend. Basically, I wanted Goku to crush Broly and expose him for the impostor he was, the same way Superman demolished the Cyborg Superman in 1993.

My aim with Luffa was to make a Super Saiyan who could be in the same throughline as Goku. Not a carbon copy of Goku, but also not a dark reflection like Z-Broly either. For a lot of years, I never got serious about actually writing the story, but I thought about her a lot, and imagined the sorts of things I could do with her, and I couldn't help but imagine how she and Goku might react to one another.

I suppose that's why Xenoverse 1 inspired me to actually write my fic, because the game provided me with a way to get the two characters in the same scene together. It wasn't just the time travel in the story, but the way both characters had to team up to complete the same mission. And then at the end Goku challenges your CAC to a friendly match, except when it's my CAC, with all this unspoken emotional connection to Goku, it takes on a whole new meaning. I soon realized that Xenoverse 1 could function as the basis of my story. All I had to do was write the stuff Luffa was doing before she exploded and got recruited into the Time Patrol. How hard could that be?

So it took me a lot of years, and I was always looking ahead to this moment, where Luffa and Goku finally fight. He doesn't know her well at all, but he still has this interest in her. And she knows him mostly by reputation, but this her literal dream opponent. Luffa sees him as her heir. For everyone else, this is Goku vs. another fan OC, but for her, this is Luffa vs. Luffa 2. She has to see how she stacks up against the new model.

And that's why I've had the song from Robocop 2 stuck in my head for so many years. I've been looking forward to these two characters slugging it out for a long time, and I finally wrote it in November and then I had to put it away for a while because I found that I couldn't stop writing it. Like, I kept thinking about cool spots I should add to the fight, except I had already written it all, and there really isn't room for everything. Eventually, I managed to get some distance, and I was able to edit the thing. It may not be perfect, but like Robocop said, "We're only human." The important thing is that I got it out there where people can see it.

I hope you enjoy it.
