Battle on the Arc, All Hail the One True Chikimaru

[Reyzen Chikimaru]

Reyzen was at his mother's bedside aboard the Arc, for the last 5 years his mother had been battling a unknown terminal illness with all her might. As of late her condition had only grown terribly worse and Reyzen had stayed busy trying to come up with a cure, on this particular night her heart rate and blood pressure had dropped excessively and her son had been right by her side attempting to help. Reyzen pressed a button on his gauntlet calling for his father to come to the Arc and looked to his mother as she gasped for air.
"Don't worry Mother, Father will be here soon he'll fix this. Let me get you some more medicine to relieve some of your pain."
Reyzen said softly and quickly rose up to grab a syringe, he injected it into her intravenous tube and turned to grab some more things. As he reached down he heard the heart rate monitor slow and as he turned his mother flatlined. Reyzen ran to the table and charged his hands with electric ki to make a handmade defibrillator, he pressed his knuckles to his her chest and shocked her. Kara's body flailed lifelessly on the table Reyzen shocked her again, he kept at it for 15 minutes screaming for his mother not to let go as tears of rage and sorrow streamed down his face. Reyzen laid his head on his mother's chest and sobbed quietly waiting for Devlin to show, after a long moment he stood up his body shaking with rage.
"I'm sorry mother, I have failed you... But I promise I'll make it right."
He said and he slowly left the room, as he exited the room an overwhelming feeling of energy came over him. He knew that dark voice was coming again and he quickly made his way down to the Arc Core. As he arrived he placed his hands on the railing to the massive composite of raw physical data and peered into it.
He shall come soon and when he does you will be ready, it is time Reyzen to complete what your father could not. He is the Key to finishing Project Rune and we have waited long enough.
The voice said inside his head and Reyzen gripped the railing tighter bending it with the sheer force. The voice was right it was time for him to stand up against his father.

[Devlin Chikimaru]

Devlin appeared in the Main Hall of the Arc and looked around for a moment in surprise, Reyzen had done amazing works with what he saw so far. He reached out to sense ki and found Reyzen's in the Arc Core, he wondered why he was down there and made his way down. The Arc was weirdly quiet at this moment and it made Devlin slightly uncomfortable, Devlin pressed the button of an elevator and the door opened and he walked in. There were no buttons on the inside so he smirked and looked up.
"Ragnarok, take me to the Arc Core."
Devlin said and the elevator dropped at intense speeds, Devlin stood in the middle of the elevator tapping his foot impatiently a teleporter would have sufficed just fine. Devlin arrived at the Arc Core after a few seconds and stepped out of the elevator, he gazed around in wonder at the completed project he had abandoned all those years ago unbeknownst to him he was really looking at two of his trashed projects his son had completed. Devlin saw Reyzen hunched over a railing and went to approach his son when he was pushed back by a telekinetic force like none he had encountered, Devlin slammed against the wall and quickly regained his composure, as he looked up he saw Reyzen turn his pale blue eyes appearing as if they were slightly cracked.

[Reyzen Chikimaru]

Reyzen sensed as his father arrived to the Arc and he felt his heart begin to beat uncontrollably in his chest, he felt an uneasy calmness as his eyes began to hurt. Reyzen heard the elevator running and he gripped the metal railing tighter snapping it as he squeezed, once his father exited he waited for his moment. A few seconds passed and he heard the clip clopping of Devlins boots approaching him, Reyzen's rage fumed as he pushed out an immense wave of telekinetic energy sending his father flying backwards into a wall. Reyzen turned and stared his father down as he stood back up and he felt his eyes pulse from the strain of his pupil cracking.
"Where...the fuck... Were you!! Mother is dead and you are to good enough to be by her side in her final moments?! Let me guess you were off with Ruba, or was it your slag in Conton City and your bastard human son?! You have never been there for either of us! Look what I've done just to catch your attention, what I have constructed but you've never been there to see it. My training with Rasha, 14 years before I was allowed to be in your presence and then when I can off you go to be the perfect little warrior for your home world! I lost my damn arms to a son I didn't know you had and where were you? Mother has been dying for the past 5 years and not once have I seen your deadbeat face anywhere near her, maybe my Intel is right and you do have a new family in 13 you care about more than us."
Reyzen screamed at his father, the overwhelming energy coming off of him shaking the floor beneath him. He held his arms out and opened his hands as two short bladed katanas formed in his hands, the very swords he was gifted by Teelo.

[Devlin Chikimaru]

Devlin listened as his son spoke seeing clearly the pain and hurt his son was going through, his heart sank at the point of Kara expiring without him there for her. Reyzen screamed about how Devlin had never been there for him leaving his friends and family to raise and train him while Devlin was off doing his duty given to him at birth, Devlin sighed and crossed his arms as Reyzen summoned his dual blades knowing he had been a terrible father for his son.
"Reyzen, I'm so sorry I wasn't here... That I wasn't there for you, but you must understand how my life has been to make so I wasn't. Since the day of my birth I have had a target on my back, my own parents tricked to believe I died in childbirth, subjected to experimentation and torture until your uncle saved me then I was a target by Cold and his family. Once I realized I was the reincarnation of Akumo I was thrown into a clusterfuck of responsibility and I had to maintain them, what you seem to fail to realize is I stayed away to protect you and your mother. The woman in Conton City was a moment of weakness, after I said goodbye I had to let go of everything including you and your mother even though I didn't want to. I do not want to fight you but if you're leaving me no other choice then I'll allow you to get this anger out son."
Devlin said and used his nanites to materialize two swords into his hands as he shifted into a fighting stance.

[Reyzen Chikimaru]

Reyzen chuckled as Devlin explained himself to him showing emotion as he did, he twirled the swords in the air causing slight ripples around him and he brought them up in the air in a swift motion. The voice in the back of his head cackled madly and Reyzen honed in on his father's chest.
"The time for talk has well more than passed, I care not for your reasoning only your demise. So if you wish to keep babbling like I care and I'll cut you down where you stand, otherwise shut your fucking Gob and fight me Father!"
Reyzen chuckled and slammed his swords down against each other causing a sound wave to form and shoot directly at Devlin, which connected and for a moment suspended him in place. Reyzen saw the opportunity and kicked off delivering a stunning shoulder slam with his cauldron into the gut of his father and sent his right sword up slashing the center of his armor from waist to collar as he hovered backwards. He watched as a straight line of blood shot from his father's chest and Devlin stumbled backwards as his armor separated in the front.

[Devlin Chikimaru]

Devlin listened as Reyzen stated that his words were meaningless and that he had only care for the demise of his father, before he could respond he was caught suspended in place by sound wave that felt charged with telekinetic energy. He was left defenseless with nothing to do but watch Reyzen capitalize and rush him connecting with a crazy shoulder slam to his gut with his shoulder cauldrons, Devlin shouted out in pain and was met with an upward slash to the body from hip to collar slashing his armor clean in half and causing a spray of blood from the wound just inflicted to him. Devlin stumbled backwards and growled as the wound closed from the nanites work of repairing it and he stood straight glaring Reyzen down.
"Good, now I don't have to hold back on you..."
Devlin snarled as shifted into a offensive stance as he pointed one sword straight and flat at Reyzen, his nanite sword began to glow with a bright aura as he whipped the other sword down on it and caused a beam of ki to shoot from the pointing blade directly at Reyzen. With the amount of energy he put into his attack Reyzen would be rendered immobilized giving him the chance to swoop in and put an end to this childish outburst, he watched as the beam closed in on his son and then stopped in midair inches away from Reyzen.

Reyzen watched as his fathers wounds healed and he spoke of not having to hold back, finally his father would fight him like he was Ruba and he grinned evilly as he watched his father use a move he had never seen him use before. when the beam had made it a few inches from him when he stopped it in place with his overwhelming psychic/telekinetic prowess. Reyzen chuckled as he made the beam struggle when he felt a sharp pain in his gut, as he looked down he saw Devlin there with a small ki blade stabbed a few inches into his stomach and was met with a teeth clicking uppercut sending him backflipping away. Reyzen quickly recovered from the blow a soft trickle of blood coming from his lip and stomach, he glared up at his father whom was slowly standing upright, hatred quickly consumed him and he screamed out not in pain but Agony as his power skyrocketed out of known measurement, under close inspection with a keen eye one could tell his ki was corrupted by a darker influence that most would assume to be from Akumo or his line but this one was different.
"Don't get a big head father, its gonna take more than a little poke and an uppercut to put me down. If this is how you and Uncle Ruba fight, then I must sadly inform you that I am disappointed and your fucking pathetic! No wonder you failed not only as a son but as a father and husband, this existence shall know true pain once i get rid of all of you and take my place as the head of all existences. HE HAS SHOWN ME EVERYTHING THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE WHITE MASK IS TO DESTROY EVERYTHING BEFORE HE IS REBORN! DARKRUNE HAS AWOKEN ME TO THE LIES AND THE VEIL COVERING MY EYES, YOU HELP LEAD A FRUITLESS MISSION AND CAUSE TO DEITIES THAT WOULD EASILY ERASE YOU IF THEY SO DESIRED FOR WHAT?! SO YOUR FAMILY CAN SURVIVE UNTIL OUR UNIVERSE IS TOO POWERFUL SO IT CAN WIPED OUT LIKE 13 AND ON!? FUCK THAT I REFUSE TO STAND IDLY BY WHILE YOU TWO DAMN US ALL!!"
Reyzen bellowed out as The Arc quaked from his sheer power, he roared out once more and shot at his father with a speed even Devlin was caught off guard by, each blow was delivered in accurate and deliberate succession that caused Devlin to shout out blow for blow. Reyzen lifted a knee and then roundhoused Devlin across the room and rose a clawed hand up causing a explosion to occur where Devlin was.

Reyzen lifted a knee and then roundhoused Devlin across the room and rose a clawed hand up causing a explosion to occur where Devlin was.

Devlin watched as Reyzen locked on to the energy beam suspending it in place in front of him, Devlin saw the concentration and took the opportunity set before him, Devlin shot into Godspeed and wrapped his hand in a small ki blade and ducked down and stabbed Reyzen in the gut with it. Devlin smirked as he felt the drops of blood hit the back of his head and absorbed into his obsidian black hair, after all this time being away from his son he couldn't help feeling slightly proud of his power until Reyzen looked down and Devlin instinctively shot up with an uppercut that sent him flying backwards. Reyzen instantly recovered and backflipped away landing a few feet away and slowly standing upright and screaming out causing the Arc to quake beneath his feet, after he was done Reyzen screamed of his goal and voiced his jealousy as if he had gone mad. Three things his son screamed at him stuck out, DarkRune, The White Masked Saiyan and killing everyone to prevent the latter's revival, Devlin was caught off-guard by his sons knowledge of a man he had no interaction with when his son rushed him with an overwhelming speed and delivered a barrage of body blows and finalized them with a roundhouse that sent him flying across the room and slamming against the ground. Before he could get up he was thrown against the ground due to an explosion on top of him, Devlin screamed out as the attack connected and a massive smoke cloud engulfed the Arc Core. Devlin quickly got to his feet and pointed towards Reyzen as a spark of purple electric ki formed on the tip of the pointing finger, he focused on where Reyzen stood and grabbed the wrist of the hand with his opposing hand for support.
"DRAGONS THUNDER BOLT!!!!"
Devlin shouted out and shot the electric beam which to his surprise connected and electrocuted Reyzen into a moment of paralysis, Devlin swiped his arm through the air and stared his son down with a look of disappointment and sorrow.
"The things you speak of you know nothing of boy, The White Mask Saiyan is dead and your uncle and I made sure of it, as of DarkRune even if you know about it you do not know what he truly is! his existence is a space time paradox that even the Omni King would not allow to continue to be in our reality. If you think you can kill me when even The White Mask could not then by all means Reyzen try me. If I don't kill you then someone else in the Pantheon will, but let me tell you this boy if you thought what your brother did to you was bad i promise ill make it look like a scratch! Now stand down or fall dead!! If any part of my son is still in there than please, just stop this!"
Devlin said and slowly began to walk over to the paralyzed Reyzen, he noticed the Arc Core slowly pulsating with energy as if siphoning the energy coming off of their bout.

Devlin said and slowly began to walk over to the paralyzed Reyzen, he noticed the Arc Core slowly pulsating with energy as if siphoning the energy coming off of their bout.

Reyzen watched as the smoke cloud grew when suddenly a beam of purple electric energy shot through it and covered him with paralysis inducing ki, Reyzen gritted his teeth as a familiar voice rang through his head.
"Bring him to me Reyzen, the time has come. If your father's death is what you want it is what you must do."
DarkRune said as Reyzen heard his father speak to him, he laughed in his head as he destroyed his father's restraints. he shot back towards the Arc Core in a hope that his father would follow.

[Devlin Chikimaru]

Devlin watched as Reyzen broke from his move and shot back towards the Arc Core, he felt confused for a second then rushed towards him. Right before he reached Reyzen he was filled witha paralyzing dead static as he looked down at his arm he saw a pale bone thin hand wrapped around his wrist. He knew this feeling it was DarkRune, within an instant he felt himself sucked into the Arc Core andbeing torn apart until everything ceased.

[DarkRune]

DarkRune waited until he felt Devlin get close enough and reached out and snatched him into the Arc Core and watched as Devlin was torn apart into various coded parts, he cackled as he took the physical DNA and began to construct a body in his image. He slowly emerged from the Arc Core appearing as a starved and dying version of the man who entered and looked up to the ceiling.
"Ragnarok, Overide 98799643 Omega Dark Fall 6667800432. Planet Azurath."
DarkRune said as The Arc's Omega Partical Collider adjusted to Planet Azurath's location and fired.

[Ruba]

Ruba was training with the Grand Priest when an ominous feeling took over him. The time had come and Devlin's power vanished as the transdimesional being took form near his home. He and the Grand Priest looked to each other and nodded as Ruba teleport outside of Azurath and saw an Omega Partical was fired. He growled under his mask and rushed towards the beam and deflected it back towards the Black Hole.

Ruba dashed towards the Arc and broke through the hall and made his way into the Arc Core Security Chamber. A few moments passed as he smashed through the final wall and as the dust settled, Ruba stood with his black hair flowing and his golden eyes shining as he stared at DarkRune. His attention shifted towards the Arc Core, where Devlin was trapped and growled. He then noticed Reyzen, stunned by his arrival.

Ruba slowly walked towards the center of the room saying, "You're becoming a monster, little nephew. A monster like me, a creature of such weakness that I couldn't bear the weight of a past life. If you want to be mad at someone, then be mad at me! Don't kill your father, Reyzen. Don't become a monster.... A monster like me. YOU AND I ARE THE SAME! You are me... I was just the same! Don't you understand, this is how I became what I am!"

Ruba's dark aura permeated around him as his anger grew. The glass around him shattered as he stared at Devlin. He turned back towards Reyzen and said, "Let me tell you something no one knows Reyzen. I caused the death of my entire race, just by being who I am. I killed my father just to feel something before I was exiled from my home. And now your making the same decision I did. ARE YOU SO BLIND THAT YOU CANT SEE THAT DEVLIN IS SUFFERING?!?!? A FATHER WILL ALWAYS LET HIS SON KILL HIM IF IT MEANS MAKING HIM A MAN, AND THATS EXACTLY WHAT YOU'VE DONE!!! WHAT WILL OUR FAMILY THINK OF YOU?!?! RASHA?!?! YOUR UNCLES AND COUSINS?!?! THEY WONT SEE WHAT YOUVE DONE AS JUSTICE OR FIXING THE WORLD... BUT I WILL... BECAUSE THAT'S HOW MONSTERS ARE... WE ARE WRETCHED CREATURES THAT DESERVE DEATH THE MOMENT WE ARE BORN, BUT WE WERE GIVEN A CHANCE TO LIVE BETTER!!!"

Ruba walked right in front of Reyzen and toward over him. He looked down at his nephew and tears rolled down his face. He stared into Reyzen's eyes and said, "And now your throwing it all away because you are blind to the truth. The truth that your father loved you more than anything and he made a mistake by leaving you and your mother behind. Your father was afraid you and her would become targets for his enemies to exploit... and you proved him right by associating with something you have no comprehension of."

Ruba pointed at the creature in front of the Arc Core and yelled, "A being from a universe that doesn't value a human life! Doesn't value life at all! He is the cause of your family being torn apart and you helped him do it! YOU ARE THE SON OF THE SECOND SMARTEST MAN IN THE MULTIVERSE AND ALL YOUVE DONE IS MAKE A FOOL OF YOURSELF!!! YOUR MOTHER WOULD BE ASHAMED, RASHA AND OUR FAMILY WOYLD BE ASHAMED, BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF!!! YOU HAVE FAILED IN YOUR MISSION AND NOW YOUR FATHER SUFFERS THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR ACTIONS!!! AND YOU...!"

Ruba turned his attention towards DarkRune. He approached the being at blinding speeds and buried him into the ground. He stepped on the beings chest and watched as Reyzen doubled over in pain. He growled and got off DarkRune and walked to the Arc Core and said, "You should have been destroyed the day Devlin and I found you. It was a mistake yo allow you to live and now we all pay. Ragnarok, override 9700234 Omega Gamma 7. Divert all power from the core to the Black Hole Stableizers. Admin Security Clearance, Gamma 7 Omega 3467999."

Ruba heard as the colony responded to his request and the Arc Core dimmed and Devlin could be seen floating in the core. He placed a hand on the core and sighed as he prepared to ruin his brother's and nephew's life work.

[Reyzen Chikimaru]

Ruba was training with the Grand Priest when an ominous feeling took over him. The time had come and Devlin's power vanished as the transdimesional being took form near his home. He and the Grand Priest looked to each other and nodded as Ruba teleport outside of Azurath and saw an Omega Partical was fired.

Ruba heard as the colony responded to his request and the Arc Core dimmed and Devlin could be seen floating in the core. He placed a hand on the core and sighed as he prepared to ruin his brother's and nephew's life work.

Reyzen watched as DarkRune consumed Devlin into the Arc Core and slowly emerged from it, he was caught off guard by his similarities with Devlin but noticed one key difference pitch black eyes. DarkRune then gave the command for the Arc to aim the Omega Particle Cannon at Azurath and fire, he felt the Arc shift and shake as the Cannon moved to its designated position and charged up. A deafening boom occurred as it went off and Reyzen looked towards the camera feed on a nearby screen, he watched as the bright pink beam went off and two people appeared in front of it. The bigger of the two smacked the beam and redirected it towards the Black Hole which promptly consumed it causing the space colony stationed above it to tremble greatly. Within a few second Ruba came crashing through the wall and both Reyzen and DarkRune smirked as Ruba’s gaze fell on them, Reyzen watched as Ruba began to speak to him hearing the faint cracking behind it from his eyes. Ruba leveled with Reyzen in a way he did not expect and a small hint of doubt began to run through his mind when suddenly he was hit with an excessive pain, DarkRune was being hit. When Ruba realized that DarkRune was taking no damage and Reyzen was he stopped and stepped towards the Arc Core. Reyzen felt his heart sink knowing if anyone would be able to pull his father out it would be Ruba and he screamed as a massive psychic force began to fall down on Ruba.
“GET AWAY FROM HIM!!! THIS IS THE FATE HE DESERVES!!!”
Reyzen bellowed and rushed towards Ruba, he then pulled an item that no one had seen since the fight with the demon race and masked Saiyan’s, The White Masks Yamagato Mirror, which he used to teleport behind Ruba and lock him in a full nelson. Reyzen screamed out as he struggled to lift his Uncle and when he did he planted him firmly behind him on his head with a suplex and backed away.
“My mission is far from over Uncle Ruba, at the end of this nothing but my gaining of the position as the One True Chikimaru matters. So you can stay down there and keep trying to get in my head but the time to turn back has far since passed. Even if you save my father it will only doom everyone on this space station into being devoured by the very thing it’s above, and from what you said you came here with the intent to save not just him but myself as well. Tell me, what would you do if every night you were plagued with hell scape nightmares of everyone you love and care for dying by the hand of the man who raised you, would you not want to stop that from happening or would you sit back like a dog beat into obedience and watch him do it? He is no god, he is a monster and with the powers you and the Omni King have allowed him to obtain what do you think would stop him from doing what my actual father did?”
Reyzen said as he stared down at Ruba.

[Ruba]

Ruba watched as Reyzen roared at him for getting to close to the Arc Core and pulled out a familiar mirror that he saw the White Masked Saiyan use so long ago. He steadied himself as he watched Reyzen appear behind him and wrapped him in a Full Nelson and lifted him and slammed him on the ground. Ruba laid there listening to what Reyzen said and sighed. He stood up and his eyes flashed as he scanned the area for other relics of the White Masked Saiyan, but only saw the mirror. Ruba looked at Reyzen and said, "You don't need a gimmick like that to fight me, Reyzen." Ruba snapped his fingers as the Yamagato Mirror was erased from existence.

Ruba saw the stoic facade of Reyzen crack for a moment and took the opportunity. Ruba slapped Reyzen across the face, but only enough to get his attention. Ruba looked at Reyzen and said, "Wake up to reality! Nothing ever goes as planned in this accursed world. The longer you live, the more you realize that the only things that truly exist in this reality are merely pain. suffering and futility."

Ruba walked back towards the Arc Core and placed his hand on it. He began to focus his ki into the Arc Core causing it to overload. He kept his back to Reyzen and said, "Listen, everywhere you look in this world, wherever there is light, there will always be shadows to be found as well. As long as there is a concept of victors, the vanquished will also exist. The selfish intent of wanting to preserve peace initiates war. And hatred is born in order to protect love. There are nexuses causal relationships that cannot be separated, you claim this is what your father deserves. I say your wrong."

Ruba watched as the Arc Core began to deteriorate as he grabbed Devlin by the leg and pulled him out. As Devlin laid on the ground, Ruba turned back towards Reyzen and said, "Do you know the true identity of the original owner of that mirror? The dark being that nearly killed all of us and had the same goal as you?" Ruba watched as all the screens on the Arc began to flash red and the Arc began to get dragged into the Black Hole. They had at least fifteen minutes until the station was fully swallowed into nothingness. Ruba turned towards the unconscious Devlin and commanded, "AWAKEN DESTROYER OF THE THIRTEENTH UNIVERSE!"

[Devlin Chikimaru]

Devlin awoke to the command of the Left Hand with a deep gasp and quickly kipped up to his feet and saw Ruba in front of him.
“Take DarkRune the boy is mine, if I knew he’d grow to be like this I would have pulled out!”
Devlin said bluntly giving Ruba the look of his own personal determination.

[DarkRune]

DarkRune watched as Ruba arrived and attempted to talk sense into Reyzen and he chuckled to himself as he slowly sapped the life force from the young boy, there was no point in trying now the boys eyes had already started shattering and any second now the White Mask would be reborn. He felt his body slowly begin to return to its natural form rather than the goody two shoes Devlin he replicated at first, when he focused on the man who had just prevented his attack again he was approaching and speaking of how they should have destroyed him when they had the chance. Before he had the chance to react Ruba attacked him and diverted all power to the Core to the BHS systems by an override code, Ruba ceased his assault when he watched the damage affect Reyzen and then made his way to the Arc Core to save Devlin. Ruba was met and temporarily stopped by Reyzen when he got close enough but he soon was prevented from using the gift DarkRune gave him and promptly slapped across the face and yelled at some more. Seemingly this Ruba fellow reminded him of Kora, the best friend of the White Masked Saiyan, but soon enough he had pulled Devlin from the Arc Core and risen him from his death and they were conversing.
"Leave it to the left hand of a God I've seen fall to stop what I set forth but it's already too late. You may as well Kill him now because the boy has finally lost it, the White Masked destroyer has been reborn. So if there are two of you now it is an even fight, I'll take the big guy."
He said cockily.

[Ruba]

Ruba watched as Devlin popped up quickly after calling him awake and spoke poorly about Reyzen. Ruba put his arm in front Devlin and said, "We have more concerning problems then a family dispute, Devlin. Your son is about to become the next White Masked Saiyan unless we can work this out civilized. Besides any damage I do to DarkRune is afflicted to your son. I think it's time we show him what happened the last time we fought the White Mask."

Ruba then noticed that DarkRune was trying to talk to him, but couldn't understand a word. He leaned forward to listen in, but decided to say, "I'm sorry could you speak up? I can't understand beings I hate. Well I shouldn't say hate should I. How can I hate something that is weaker than myself and too afraid to fight me without the need of a bond. I only feel pity for an abomination like you." Ruba looked to Devlin and waited to see if he'd expose his mark from the White Masked Saiyan.

[Reyzen Chikimaru]

Reyzen watched as Ruba erased the mirror gifted to him and then pulled his father from the Arc Core starting its self destruct process, before Reyzen could respond his father was revived and the two were convering about the White Mask, his interest began to peak when he heard DarkRune speak and he shook his head no.
"Clearly they know something I don't so let them speak, we're all gonna die anyway."

[Devlin Chikimaru]

Ruba watched as Devlin popped up quickly after calling him awake and spoke poorly about Reyzen. Ruba put his arm in front Devlin and said, "We have more concerning problems then a family dispute, Devlin. Your son is about to become the next White Masked Saiyan unless we can work this out civilized. Besides any damage I do to DarkRune is afflicted to your son. I think it's time we show him what happened the last time we fought the White Mask."

Ruba then noticed that DarkRune was trying to talk to him, but couldn't understand a word. He leaned forward to listen in, but decided to say, "I'm sorry could you speak up? I can't understand beings I hate. Well I shouldn't say hate should I. How can I hate something that is weaker than myself and too afraid to fight me without the need of a bond. I only feel pity for an abomination like you." Ruba looked to Devlin and waited to see if he'd expose his mark from the White Masked Saiyan.

Devlin listened as Ruba explained why Devlin was wrong and the suggested showing them what the White Mask did to them and Devlin nodded tearing his shirt off to reveal three seperate black spots on his body all in the location of major organs.
"Yeah. The White Mask was capable of decaying what he touched and if it were a god it would seep in and work its way around their vital bodily organs and functions. Since that fight I have been fighting against major organ failure, it is a wonder i stand before any of you. You needn’t worry Ruba, I won’t kill him or at least I will try."
Devlin said and grimaced in pain and anger for a brief second

[Ruba]

Ruba watched as Devlin tore off his shirt, or what remained of it, and showed the blackened marks on his body from the White Masked Saiyan. Ruba proceeded to do the same, but his affliction was far worse than Devlin's. The mark on Ruba expanded acrossed his entire chest and was making it's way toward his upper abdamon. Ruba then listened as Devlin told him he would try his hardest not to kill the boy and smirked. He looked at Devlin and tapped him on the chest as the dark marks disappeared. Ruba doubled over as the black mark on his chest began to expanded rapidly. Ruba took a deep breath and said, "There... now that gives you a reason to hold back Devlin... I took your curse so you can show your son what his father is capable of without the need for destruction. As for me I've given DarkRune a severe handicap so I can enjoy an actual battle."

Ruba snapped his fingers and both Reyzen and DarkRune glowed as their bond was erased from existence. Ruba looked at DarkRune with a smirk as he stood tall and the mark on his chest was now seen going across his entire torso. Ruba beckoned DarkRune over with a finger. Ruba hovered up into the air with a sinister black and purple aura floating around him.

Ruba hovered up into the air with a sinister black and purple aura floating around him.

DarkRune watched as Ruba healed Devlin of his ailment and chuckled to himself until he felt Ruba sever the bond between him and Reyzen, Reyzen grabbed his head and screamed as his power skyrocketed and DarkRune began to laugh hysterically as his power rose higher than they would have expected and his pupils slitted turning a glowing blood red.
"You really are just another power hungry Saiyan from a backwater timeline that wont exist for much longer!! Breaking our bond will only push Reyzen to the finale of his transformation and as for myself I will regain my true form and then everyone will be done for!!! The only man who can kill me has been dead for centuries!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!"
DarkRune cackled as a black aura surrounded him and he shot off at Ruba splitting into 5 of himself and attacking him from all directions.

[Reyzen Chikimaru]

Reyzen watched as his uncle aided his father and his blood boiled at how easily he had ended his plan, he was bout to strike when he felt a something snap deep down inside him and his vision cut out. Reyzen screamed out in pain as his power shot up and his iris' completely shattered a dim white aura slowly srrounding his body soon turned into a blood red as he looked up at his father. He could only see the outline of his father from the vibrations of the Arc rumbling beneath him and he shot forward as what appeared to be two arms of nanite and ki formed on his body where his old arms once were. He then began to overwhelm his father with a barrage of punches as he insanely cackled, to which his father stood strong and blocked the blows.

[Devlin Chikimaru]

Devlin watched as Ruba took on the damage he was given by The White Mask Saiyan and told him to show his son what he was capable of without inducing destruction, before he could respond Reyzen blew up in power and rushed him locking him into blocking punches from not just two arms but four. Devlin planted his feet firm standing in place as he took the blows he couldnt block and stocked up the energy he could use for his Ultra Ego form, when he did assume that form he wouldnt kill his son, nay he would wish he had honored him with the gift of death. Devlin saw an opening as Reyzen sent a furious right hook and planted a hefty punch to his side making a few of his ribs break and causing him to side step, when he did that Devlin cocked a fist back and swung landing directly into Reyzen's face and causing him to backpedal. Devlin jumped up and firmly planted his feet into Reyzen's chest and backflipped off of him as he summoned chains of dark ki to form around Reyzen and restrain him to the ground.
"THERE HE'S NOT DEAD JUST SUFFERING A FEW BROKEN BONES! I REALLY HOPE YOU FIGURED A WAY TO KILL THAT BASTARD IF WHAT HE SAYS IS TRUE THEN WE MIGHT BE FUCKED!!!"

[Ruba]

DarkRune watched as Ruba healed Devlin of his ailment and chuckled to himself until he felt Ruba sever the bond between him and Reyzen, Reyzen grabbed his head and screamed as his power skyrocketed and DarkRune began to laugh hysterically as his power rose higher than they would have expected and his pupils slitted turning a glowing blood red.
"You really are just another power hungry Saiyan from a backwater timeline that wont exist for much longer!! Breaking our bond will only push Reyzen to the finale of his transformation and as for myself I will regain my true form and then everyone will be done for!!! The only man who can kill me has been dead for centuries!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!"
DarkRune cackled as a black aura surrounded him and he shot off at Ruba splitting into 5 of himself and attacking him from all directions.

Ruba watched as everyone reacted in a multitude of ways to him healing Devlin. He smiled as he watched Reyzen and DarkRune's power skyrocketed as he seperated them from each other. He watched as DarkRune changed and focused on Ruba as he spoke of only one imdividual capable of defeating him. He smirked as DarkRune charged him and split into five different versions of himself and said, "Interesting..." As all five DarkRunes slammed into him, Ruba was unfazed by the attack as a shroud of destruction ki enveloped him. He cracked his shoulder as he looked at the one directly in front of him and said, "Thanks for the massage. Your attack kinda tickled if I have to be honest." Ruba sent his aura outward as he grabbed all five of his opponents. He continued to look forward at what seemed to be the main one and placed two fingers on his forehead. Ruba smirked as he asked, "So, what makes you think I don't have the capabilities to kill you?"

[DarkRune]

Ruba watched as everyone reacted in a multitude of ways to him healing Devlin. He smiled as he watched Reyzen and DarkRune's power skyrocketed as he seperated them from each other.

Ruba smirked as he asked, "So, what makes you think I don't have the capabilities to kill you?"

DarkRune cackled as all five of him swarmed Ruba and attacked to his surprise Ruba blocked it with a dark energy and then began to mock him as he used his aura to restrain them, then asked what made DarkRune believe Ruba wasn't capable of destroying him. This made DarkRune laugh out loud as a bright white aura surrounded him and two tendrils formed from it slashing the darkened ki away from his bodies and allowing them to move freely, DarkRune then split each body into two once more making himself into 10 seperate bodies which surrounded Ruba.
"Please forgive my audacity, but if you were truly wanting and able to make my demise occur you would have done it by now instead of blowing smoke out of your ass and stalling. That's one of the many things that amaze me about this existence, you Saiyans mouth off more than you throw down which makes you very easy targets! The only way I can die is by the hand of that who gave me life, The One True Chikimaru!"
DarkRune cackled as all 10 of his bodies began to rapidly swing punches and kick in various directions at Ruba.

[Reyzen Chikimaru]

As Reyzen continued his body shots to his father he swung a heft punch and was met with a rib breaking punch to the side that caused him to sidestep and as he did he was met with another straight to the face causing him to stumble backwards. Before he could respond Devlin jumped up and planted his feet center into Reyzen's and backflipped away as he summoned chains of dark ki and used them to bind him, Devlin then shouted out to Ruba that Reyzen was still alive and the most damage induced were a few broken ribs and he chuckled through winced wheezes.
"Still after all I have done and caused, the two of you still try to see the good in me when there truly is none. You can kill me if you want but killing DarkRune is impossible without the individual he speaks of. Heheheh its a pathetic fight for you both to be in!"
Reyzen chuckled and turned his head to watch DarkRune

[Devlin Chikimaru]

Devlin began to watch as Ruba and DarkRune began to fight and noticed that DarkRune seemed familiar with the multiform technique as he split in five before he could respond Ruba had seemingly countered it until the entity countered and split into 10. As he went to approach to help he heard DarkRune mention the One True Chikimaru and then Reyzen began to taunt him and Ruba claiming their attempts were fruitless and he quickly delivered a snap kick to the side of his head dazing him for the moment.
"You good Ruba? Even Reyzen is backing up his shit talking, for some reason he wont stay down!"
Devlin asked as Reyzen began to stir and he snap kicked him in the side of the head again.

[Ruba]

Ruba watched as DarkRune broke free from his grasp using his white ki and chuckled as he spoke. Ruba listened as DarkRune spoke about him blowing smoke out of his ass and started to chuckle madily. He then heard as Reyzen spoke out about how it was pointless to fight DarkRune without the certain individual and Devlin telling him that they need to hurry up and deal with this. Ruba then took a full barrage of hits as DarkRune seperated into ten versions of himself. He felt the pain and only smiled as his body began to bruise and bleed in some places. Ruba looked over towards Devlin as suddenly the smile vanished and all that remain was rage.

Ruba's golden eyes flashed as he stared at DarkRune's true form. Ruba systematically dispatched the nine remaining copies with a single strike. As the dust settled, Ruba could be seen covered in the blood and gore of the nine copies. He cracked his neck and flexed his muscles as the blood disintergated around him from the overwhelming pressure he expelled. He opened his eyes slowly and stared at DarkRune and said, "You think I'm blowing smoke out of my ass, big guy? Since when have I ever lied to anyone in my life? You sit there and mock me as if you think I can't kill you. I could end you right here and now, but I think he has every right to kill you since he was the one who made you."

Ruba snapped his fingers as the black hole ceased sucking in the Arc and went practically inert. Ruba looked at DarkRune and then to Reyzen as he said, "You two probably don't even know what this Black Hole is do you? This was the same black hole I forced The White Masked Saiyan in, do you know why? It was because he told me he would finish the job and make sure he would never harm my family or myself again. This black hole is a doorway to where you are from DarkRune, it was just a one way door... until now." Ruba's eyes flashed once more as forced the black hole to shrink down and appear in front of him as a small orb.

He looked at DarkRune and said, "Why don't you help me with welcoming your creator, DarkRune. Force activation... Gate of Nirvanna!" Ruba squeezed the orb in his hand and scattered the dust across the wind as a shimmering doorway appeared next to him. Ruba kept his eyes on DarkRune as the door opened and a blinding white light covered the area. Ruba smirked as footsteps drew closer and closer. Ruba then stepped aside and said, "Allow me to introduce my partner from your universe. The One True Chikimaru, Reyzen Chikimaru."

[Alpha Reyzen Chikimaru]

A doorway opened before everyone and slowly emerging from its pitch darkness was an older appearing Saiyan, ancient one would say. His appearance was that of an elderly man with a somewhat viking braided long beard and scruffy moustache and what was revealed of his face from his long silver white hair was ridden with scarring and aged skin, his armor and clothing appeared to be that of Saiyan design but old and made of what appeared to be dragon bones that were browned with age and gripped tightly in his right gnarled hand a long & foot katana whose blade was a blinding white light with a faint blue inscription in a language none knew that roughly translated to In the darkest Shadows my Light will burn Forever Bright. As he stopped outside the doorway a breathtaking force hit everyone as a soft angelic hum began to ring in everyone's head currently present, this force rang amongst the universes righting every wrong caused by DarkRune even going as far as restoring destroyed planets and races. The One True Chikimaru slowly looked up and scanned the room, what appeared to be an inferior version of himself who had lost himself to the anger was chained to the floor by dark energy and the one restraining him appeared to be... it couldn't be Devlin, his father had gone insane from the same anger he saw in the boy before him. His pale greying purple eyes slowly fell on Ruba and a soft smile formed on his face until he saw what was in front of him, his last attempt of bringing back what was good of his best friends from all those years ago.
"The boy will have to wait, it appears I had a lapse of judgement in trying to give you a second chance at life Benjamin. To think a mere human could have achieved such feats and powers through mere genetic manipulation and recoding that they could indefinitely imprint a God complex into every living molecule in there existence. I awaited the moment my father was weakened enough that I could deliver the killing blow swiftly and ensure his resealing within the Darque Blade for what felt like eternity and then he came to this distant existence and was bested by the two full blooded Saiyan warriors before you, so unlike him I won't give you the pleasure of final words instead, ERASURE!!!"
Reyzen said calmly as he pointed his sword towards DarkRune and at his final word a blinding light slowly consumed DarkRune as he let out an inaudible scream and was erased from existence instantly, the old man stabbed his blade down into the ground and dropped to a knee wheezing and coughing as he attempted to catch his breath. Part of the deed was done, now that the flower was killed it was time to fry the seed that was planted from it, what surprised him was how disoriented he was feeling at first he thought it was DarkRune but after erasure it still lingered like the stench of death on a slaughter planet.

[Ruba]

Ruba watched as his partner from the other side of Nirvanna walked through with a shimmering bright katana. He focused his eyes a moment and read the inscription on the blade and smiled. His training with Zalama had paid off, for he knew exactly what the sword was. He felt a harmonic hum enter his mind as the ancient saiyan entered their plane of existence. He watched the fear on DarkRune's face turn into pure terror and relished the feeling. Ruba listened closely as the real Reyzen spoke towards DarkRune. When he spoke of the creature's origin, everything became clear to him. He watched as the saiyan erased DarkRune from existence and felt a wave of relief wash over him. The nightmare had ended, but the dream was not over yet.

Ruba walked over towards the saiyan and offered a hand to him. As the saiyan accepted his hand and rose to his feet, Ruba stared at him and sighed. He looked back towards his Reyzen and said, "This what you were meant to become, nephew. You were to become a god of your own design, but instead you allowed yourself to harbor doubts and frustrations toward your father. Instead you nearly became the thing that nearly killed everything in this universe and his universe. You will die today, Reyzen... but your death will bring balance back to the multiverse. I won't allow this version of you to do it... I should be the one to set you free from your eternal torment that was forced on you by DarkRune. I owe you that much don't I, nephew?"

Ruba turned and face Reyzen, who was still being held by Devlin's ki. Ruba looked at Devlin and gave him a nod. Ruba then snapped and the restraints vanished as his Reyzen fell to his knees.

[Rasha]

Rasha was on Azurath in the throne room talking with Bussel when she felt a major influx of ki happen. She stopped and looked off in the distance as she both listened and felt the changes in the air. She then glance at her son who also felt the ki and she went outside. When she did she looked all around then looked up and realized it was coming from her brothers space station The Arc. She then said to Bussel, "Something is happening on the Arc...we should...." She then stopped as she felt Ruba's ki and she gave a gasp and said, "He's back...your father is back!..." She then saw beam activity as one of the stations beams got diverted. She then looked at Bussel and could see he was concentrating on something else.

Rasha then heard a harmonic hum and she knew bigger things were happening. She then said to Bussel, "Come with me we need to see what is going on!..." She then felt Bussel grab her arm and she instant transmitted onto the Arc.

Once on board it didn't take long to go find the cause of everything and she stopped and looked at Ruba and she said, "What is going on?..." She was confused at the sight of two Reyzen's. She then asked, "How is there two Reyzen's?..."

[Bussel]

Bussel was still hurt after his father left after the fight he had with his uncle Sebas. He was left to grow up fast and his attitude turned cold and hard. He had lost alot of the love and compassion he used to have and he found it hard each time his uncle tried to ask forgiveness.

He wanted to run away but the responsibilities placed on him left him feeling trapped so his attitude grew cold and serious.

Then one day he was talking with his mother about things to help their people when he felt his Father's ki return. He could feel it as if someone placed a hand on them and he could see his mother felt it too. He also felt other ki's that got his attention and when he felt Reyzen and then another that felt like a duplicate he grew silent and focused.

When his mother suggested they go investigate he didn't hesitate. He grabbed her arm and allowed her to Transmit them to the Arc. And when he found the scene he looked at his father and then at the two Reyzen's and at Devlin. He then said, "What is going on here??!!..." and his eyes fell back on his father for explanations.

[Reyzen Chikimaru]

Reyzen watched as Ruba held his own against DarkRune and then evaporated his 9 shadows and smirked as he spoke of a partner of his from Nirvana and he condensed the black hole beneath them into his hand and made it into a door. What terrified him was the fact of what came out of the door, an elderly man in old Draconic armor stepped through and the visions he was plagued with throughout his life washed away with the angelic choir coming from him. All of what he had done quickly fell down on him as he was left to do nothing but watch DarkRune be erased from existence and his uncle help the elderly man up, Ruba then turned to him and spoke introducing the old man as Reyzen himself and how this was what he could of been had he not acted out of anger and jealousy and then released him from his binds causing him to fall to the floor to his knees. Reyzen knelt there his long white hair stained in blood covering his face completely as he stared down at the ground and held his arms out wide accepting his personal demise.

[Devlin Chikimaru]

Devlin watched as Ruba held his own with ease and then in an amazing display of power he condensed the black hole in his hands and made it into a doorway, before he could respond an elderly Saiyan warrior stepped through it dressed in Dragonic bone armor that resembled that of Saiyan armor. He watched as the old man slowly stepped out and ended the monster in a single technique and fell to his knees where he was promptly helped up by Ruba, Ruba then turned and introduced the man to Reyzen as the man who he was destined to become. Devlin's hearth sank as he watched the alternate version of his son get ready to approach his son and then noticed Ruba release his chains and raise a palm at Reyzen after he hit the floor and he noticed Rasha and Bussel arrive. Devlin shot between them and held his arms out in defense of his own blood, showing that rare treat of his emotions.
"NO!! I WILL NOT ALLOW MY CHILD TO BE ERASED! THERE MUST BE A WAY TO SAVE HIM!"
Devlin shouted out as he glared through Ruba at the older Reyzen, he did not trust him even if Ruba called him his partner.

[Sebas Bloodborne]

Sebas was on the throne of Azurath, not sure as to what he should do now. The fight that he had with his brothers took them all to a level of power that he never knew he had. But now, because of him, his family had been broken apart once more. He's not sure if he was truly at fault, but with the knowledge he had gain over the years, things may be awful now, but things could always improve.

However, his feelings disappeared at the moment he felt powers going haywire on the Arc. He could sense Devlin and Reyzen but Reyzens ki felt more malicious than ever before. Just before he left, he could sense his brother appearing with them. Realizing that things must be serious, he immediately teleported and appeard right beside his family.

He quickly looked around and noticed things werent going good. His eyes turned to the old man and felt a strange sense of deja vu, almost like he knew this person before. Shaking off this feeling, he looks at his brother and noticed that he had gotten very powerful since the last time he had seem him. He saw Devlin standing in front of Reyzen, shielding him. Not sure of what's going on, he remains on guard.

[Ruba]

Ruba was preparing for what he had to do when, suddenly, Rasha and his son appeared on the Arc, with Sebas showing up shortly after. Ruba heard as both his wife and child question what was going on and Devlin stepped inbetween himself and Reyzen. Ruba first addressed his wife and child and said, "I am bringing balance back to the multiverse by destroying... destroying the young buddding flower that is the White Masked Saiyan. Reyzen has strayed to far from his path and will bring ruin to the multiverse. As for the second version of Reyzen behind me... this is what Reyzen was meant to become. A God in his own right that was to serve with me, but he fell victim to DarkRune."

Ruba shifted his attention back towards his brother and best friend with pain in his eyes. He stepped closer towards Devlin and said, "I'm sorry brother, but this needs to happen. I know this is something you can't accept, but its already too late. Reyzen has already unlocked the shattered eye and he will slowly fall into madness and become the next ruiner of the multiverse. He will become what we saw all those years ago when we dealt with your counterpart from Nirvanna... It's ironic how your roles switch in this universe."

Ruba used his telekinetic abilities to raise Reyzen's head and show Devlin the same eyes they saw when they dealt with the White Masked Saiyan. He looked from Reyzen back to Devlin as he let Reyzen go and said, "I don't want to kill him, Devlin. What uncle would ever want to do that? I will always do what is right for my family, but the fate of the multiverse is at stake. I have to do my job and protect what is all of reality." Ruba was about to push past Devlin, when he collapsed down to a knee. His chest hurt and his insides felt like they were boiling. Ruba looked down at the mark on his chest and watched as it expanded across his entire body. Ruba began to vomit violently as black sludge spread across the ground.

Ruba held his chest and slowly rose back up as he wiped his chin of the black substance. Ruba looked at Devlin as his skin began to grow taught against his muscles and his eyes went from the brilliant gold to a dull yellow. He placed a withered hand on Devlin's shoulder and said, "This is what will happen to all we care about if we do not stop him from becoming that monster. I hope you understand what I'm saying to you, brother. If we don't do this, then we lose everything and the Omni-king will just start over." Ruba collapsed to his knees once more as his breathing became labored and he struggled to keep himself concious.

[Alpha Reyzen Chikimaru]

The Old Man was helped to his feet by Ruba and when he touched him Ruba felt a slight moment of no pain until the old man let go. Suddenly, a Saiyan woman, a young Saiyan man and a darker skinned Saiyan appeared and assessed the current situation and begun directing questions towards Ruba, the Old Man couldn't help himself from chuckling softly. So this was what a family actually looked like, his mind began to flood with sudden memories of his brother and sister and of course his bastard father, the Old man watched as Devlin jumped between Ruba and the boy who was currently giving himself up and protested against killing his other self. A sudden wave of emotion flooded through him as he gripped his Light Blade's handle tightly, his father cared enough for him to willingly throw himself into Death's touch to save this version of himself and a small stream of tears began to run down his cheeks and dampen his beard. Ruba then began to explain what was going on to what the Old Man could only assume were his wife child and someone the Old Man thought he recognized and decided to point it out after he had finished his business at hand. He watched as Ruba began explaining the situation at hand to Devlin and that there was no other option but this and slowly approach him as the damage of what his father did to Ruba began to worsen, there was his secondary objective. When Ruba began to get sick The Old Man began his approach rushing to his side and placing his palm on Ruba's chest filling him with that same feeling from before. Let me relieve you of my Father's Jealousy for he is no more but an eternal soul trapped within a sword in an empty void. If the man between us and the Deceived One is my Father it may be within our better interest to let me do the talking.
The voice of the Old Man said as he filled Ruba with blessing light removing the damage killing him from the White Mask, the old man pulled out what appeared to be a red rag from his pants pocket and began to tie his hair up in an extremely long ponytail, what parts of his face that was no uncovered was greatly tanned and covered with scars but the most predominate feature was his eyes or at least the lack there of. His eyes were nothing but empty sockets with what appeared to be a bright purple light in them and they appeared to be locked onto Devlin that eerie soothing feeling still flooded the air as the Old Man dropped to a knee and bowed his head to Devlin.
"I have dreamed for the day for centuries to be able to help you Father, until the day you and Ruba bested the White Masked Saiyan I was convinced he was the only Devlin left in existence ensuring his place as The One True Chikimaru. I fell to my anger centuries ago and my eyes shattered, but I didn't do what you did I ripped them out... I stopped his deceit from consuming my mind and the Elder's blessed me with sight once more. I was cold and alone for so long after Reku and Rose....but you! You look so great and not a total fucking sociopath, which is awesome by the way. But in all seriousness, his eyes are donezo which means there is no saving him not even my Eternal Light could heal that. I know, pretty tense situation but in all honesty you got lucky he gave up so easily because if he's your White Masked Saiyan he's pretty tame. Now if we get this over with I should have enough time, as contrary of a concept as it is, to actually talk. Lord Left Hand, please proceed."
Reyzen said with a tone of cynicism and sarcastic energy as he stood up and bowed his head once more the backed up until he was behind Ruba.

[Ruba]

Ruba knew he was on the verge of death, when a familiar sense of calm washed over him as the Elder Sage place his palm on his chest and purified him of the White Mask's curse, Immortalitas Languorem. He listened as the Elder Sage spoke to him within his mind and made it clear he would explain everything. He rose with the help of the Elder Sage and listened as he spoke towards Devlin about the current circumstance. Ruba watched as the Elder Sage walked back behind him.

Ruba gave a nod to the Elder Sage and could see that everyone was still confused about what was going on. Ruba gave a sigh as he thought how to describe the history of DarkRune, but decided to just tell them everything. Ruba turned towards his family and said, "I can see that some of you are still confused by whats going on. Allow me to explain the story of DarkRune and how we got here." Ruba walked over towards the broken Arc Core.

Ruba placed his hand on the shattered Arc Core and gave a long sigh as he said, "Almost twenty years ago... Devlin and I came across a capsule floating not too far from Rothg. We noticed that it had an immense power and was the perfect source for the Arc. Devlin and I conducted experiments on the capsule and found out something was within it, but was locked within a deep hibernation. We decide to leave it be and focused on using it for what we needed. I should have realized once Reyzen took over the Arc, he was going to find it and look into it further."

Ruba paused for a moment and then continued saying, "I gave it to Devlin to continue studying and he deemed it worthy for the core. After dealing with Reku and the demons, Reyzen took over the Arc and the thought of the capsule causing a problem was an after thought. Fast forward to the fight with the White Masked Saiyan. I had already made a connection to a being similiar to me, but on a different plane of existance. Little do any of you know, I was training with Zalama. Zalama, as you all know, is also Super Shenron and I am currently the only one who has seen his true form."

Ruba turned his back towards everyone and his tattoos of the multiverse symbols and his Azurian family crest slowly vanished as a golden dragon tattoo appeared around his arms and his back in the design of Super Shenron. He then said, "Zalama isn't from our reality. He is from the same reality as the Elder Sage and the brother to the dragon that taught the elder Reyzen. Because of this, I made the connection with the Elder Sage and he was the one who told me to send the White Masked Saiyan into the black hole. He made the promise that he would make sure he would't hurt anyone again, and even though i had never met him until today... I knew i could trust him."

Ruba turned back towards his family and gave them a soft smile. He knew this was a lot of information, but he had to make sure everyone understood. Ruba took a deep breath and began to speak once more, "What has happened to Reyzen has been written within the sacred texts of the Chiukimaru clan for centuries. He allowed his emotions to shatter his eys and has only one path left, to fall into an overwhelming madness and destroy everything in creation. I have a plan to stop this from happening, but Reyzen will still need to die. You are all my family and i need to you if you can accept this. If you have any questions, please ask them now."

Rasha listened as Ruba spoke of what happened and she remained silent as he spoke. She knew what he was saying was both harsh and needed and as she listened she thought of everything that had transpired over the last few years and the personal changes that have transpired with their unique roles. She then stepped forward and said to Ruba, "I admit coming here and seeing took me off guard, but knowing the roles we now have I must trust your judgement...Though I am worried Bussel still doesn't fully understand what your role as left hand fully is...and by the look on his face he is in shock..."

Rasha then looked at the other Reyzen and then at Devlin and she asked, "I do hope we aren't gonna run into another situation like this again...we always seem to attract situations and I don't know about you Ruba, but it being so close to home makes me greatly worry...we don't need mortals coming and finding out treasure..." she said thinking of the super dragon balls.

[Devlin Chikimaru]

Devlin listened as Ruba explained in more detail of what was occurring and he soon found his gaze locked on to the older version of his son, his expression grimed and he clenched his fists as he stared down the ancient Saiyan before him. He didn't care who he was, where he was from, or what his capabilities were all he knew was that for the first time since Reyzen was boen his fatherly instincts kicked in and he wasn't gonna stand by and allow him to be erased.
"How do you know Ruba? You expect me to believe this dust bag is my son from the existence of the White Masked Saiyan? The same Reyzen he made damn clear he disposed of completely, because if so then why did HE allow that bastard to transcend Realities unpunished?! Why did he allow such things to come to us and do everything we've been forced to deal with since that fight with the White Mask?! I understand your role as the Left Hand but in all honesty this could have been prevented if the Omni King from his time stopped it!"
Devlin snapped as he heard Reyzen begin to chuckle behind him and Rasha speak to both him and the newcomer.
"IF it goes the way these two want I'm sure there will never be a problem like this again, considering the Black Hole was just destroyed. I understand your worries sister but I doubt anyone would be able to get close to home without you or Bussel noticing."
