Planet Sadala and the start of the Saiyan civil war

[Grand Priest]

After hearing Yamoshi's resolve and agree that something needs to be done no matter the cost, he smiled and looked towards Yamoshi's frozen friends. He closed his eyes and shifted his attitude into a more serious expression. He looked to Yamoshi and said, "You six righteous Saiyans shall gather in a circle, all holding hands in the process. Two of them will place their palms onto your back, while you face away from all of them. Next, instead of concentrating your ki Yamoshi, you must pour in your heart. Take everything they offer to you and you shall become a God. Are their any questions?" The Grand Priest looked to Yamoshi, wondering if he was up to the task.

[Yamoshi]

Yamoshi listened as the Grand Priest explained what needed to be done. He looked to the Grand Priest and said, "This going to kill them isn't it? If I do this I want you to promise me we will be together again after this is over. I don't care how, but this is what I want." Yamoshi was serious and even though time was frozen, the air around him vibrated.

[Grand Priest]

The Grand Priest heard Yamoshi's request and agreed. He looked to the others who were frozen and said, "You won't have much time after I return things to normal. You'll have to perform the ritual quickly and ascend. This will be your only opportunity." The Grand Priest snapped his fingers as time resumed and he returned back to the Omni-King.

[Zuchi]

Zuchi was looking at Banero when he spoke back to her and she was about to say something but then there was nothing. Then when she came back to it was as if something happened but she had no clue what, but she saw the Grand Priest was gone and she looked at Yamoshi confused. The look on his face however was silent and serious and she was left with silence. She then looked as the others also came to confused then she looked at Roma and she was looking at Yamoshi.

[Roma]

Roma was speaking to Grand Priest one moment then he was gone and she was left standing looking around. Then she looked at Yamoshi and silence was so deep. She didn't have words to say she only looked at him and gave a nod of understanding.

[Banero]

Banero watched Roma speak to the Grand Priest and then everything stopped. When everything resumed Banero looked around confused with the absence of the Grand Priest.

[Butarega]

Butarega was starting to get irritated by the squabbling between Zuchi and Banero. He was about to tell the to stop and show respect to the Grand Priest, but suddenly everything had stopped. When time resumed for him, he noticed that the Grand Priest was gone and Yamoshi's attitude had changed drastically. The silence was defeaning and he finally said, "Brother are you ready? It's time for us to help you ascend and make you the God you were meant to be." He looked to the other and back to Yamoshi as he waited for his response.

[Yamoshi]

Yamoshi was still trying to process what he was informed by the Grand Priest. His friends and family would die just so he could fight Cumber and save his people. Though his friends will die honorably, he couldn't bare watching them all die. He was snapped out of his thoughts when Butarega spoke to him. He was sitting on the edge of his and Roma's bed as he raised his head and looked to his friends with tears in his eyes.

He wiped his eyes and stood up and looked to everyone. He smiled and said, "My dear friends... I'm sure you spoke to the Grand Priest as well? You know what we need to do." He walked towards his friends and looked at them one by one. He new this was going to be his last time seeing their face.

He looked to Zuchi and said, "Zuchi... you are a strong and dignified saiyan woman. I appreciate all your help in making our troop proud warriors. Youve helped them see the passion of fighting and compassion of having a heart of gold." Yamoshi pulled Zuchi in and hugged her tightly. He released her and shifted his attention to Banero.

Yamoshi walked over and stood in front of Banero. He gave Banero a cocky grin and said, "Lieutenant Banero, my strong and powerful saiyan champion. You are my most powerful lieutenant in my army and one of the few I trust. I appreciate all you have done for me my friend." He leaned forward and embrace Banero in a hug. He held it for a moment and then let him go. He turned his attention towards his wife, Roma, and his brother, Butarega.

Yamoshi slowly approached his family and said, "My family... you are the one's who have kept me going all this time. It saddens me that Leatz cannot be here with us. We will see him again one day when we all make our way to the Otherworld." He looked over towards Butarega and smiled. He looked to his brother and said, "Butarega... you are my closest friend and ally. You are my best friend and I appreciate everything you have done for me. You kept me in line when I lost myself in emotion."

Yamoshi turned his attention to his beautiful wife and unborn child. He looked to her and smiled as he said, "My lovely wife... you are the only one i was able to open my stone heart. I had always feared you would choose Cumber, but when you chose me I was beyond ecstatic. Then you blessed my with Leatz and now our other son who dwell within you now."

He continued to smile as he pulled both of them into him and held them to each side of his head. As he held them there, his emotions surfaced and he whispered to them in a stuttered voice, "I know what I must do, but I dont think I have the strength to do it." He pulled himself back together and released them from his hold. He raised his head and said, "We must start the ritual now, before Cumber tries to stop us." He took a few steps ahead of everyone and remained with his back turned to his friends.

[Zuchi]

Yamoshi was still trying to process what he was informed by the Grand Priest. His friends and family would die just so he could fight Cumber and save his people. Though his friends will die honorably, he couldn't bare watching them all die. He was snapped out of his thoughts when Butarega spoke to him.

He looked to Zuchi and said, "Zuchi... you are a strong and dignified saiyan woman. I appreciate all your help in making our troop proud warriors. Youve helped them see the passion of fighting and compassion of having a heart of gold." Yamoshi pulled Zuchi in and hugged her tightly. He released her and shifted his attention to Banero.

Yamoshi walked over and stood in front of Banero. He gave Banero a cocky grin and said, "Lieutenant Banero, my strong and powerful saiyan champion. You are my most powerful lieutenant in my army and one of the few I trust. I appreciate all you have done for me my friend." He leaned forward and embrace Banero in a hug. He held it for a moment and then let him go. He turned his attention towards his wife, Roma, and his brother, Butarega.

Yamoshi slowly approached his family and said, "My family... you are the one's who have kept me going all this time. It saddens me that Leatz cannot be here with us.

He took a few steps ahead of everyone and remained with his back turned to his friends.

Zuchi looked at Yamoshi and she heard what he said and she responded as he pulled her to him with a hug, "You my lord are the most noble of all Saiyans, and if the gods have seen fit to grace you with this gift then I am honored to help make it happen..." She said as he released her. She gave a warm smile then watched him as he went in line addressing everyone. Once he finished and told everyone it was time to begin she moved into position and reached her hand out to Banero.

[Banero]

Yamoshi was still trying to process what he was informed by the Grand Priest. His friends and family would die just so he could fight Cumber and save his people. Though his friends will die honorably, he couldn't bare watching them all die. He was snapped out of his thoughts when Butarega spoke to him.

He looked to Zuchi and said, "Zuchi... you are a strong and dignified saiyan woman. I appreciate all your help in making our troop proud warriors. Youve helped them see the passion of fighting and compassion of having a heart of gold." Yamoshi pulled Zuchi in and hugged her tightly. He released her and shifted his attention to Banero.

Yamoshi walked over and stood in front of Banero. He gave Banero a cocky grin and said, "Lieutenant Banero, my strong and powerful saiyan champion. You are my most powerful lieutenant in my army and one of the few I trust. I appreciate all you have done for me my friend." He leaned forward and embrace Banero in a hug. He held it for a moment and then let him go. He turned his attention towards his wife, Roma, and his brother, Butarega.

Yamoshi slowly approached his family and said, "My family... you are the one's who have kept me going all this time. It saddens me that Leatz cannot be here with us. We will see him again one day when we all make our way to the Otherworld." He looked over towards Butarega and smiled.

He pulled himself back together and released them from his hold. He raised his head and said, "We must start the ritual now, before Cumber tries to stop us." He took a few steps ahead of everyone and remained with his back turned to his friends.

Banero embraced his king shortly and when released he nodded in agreement. He could see the concern on Yamoshi's face and realized that this was there last resort. He stepped into position and reached out grabbing on to Zuchi's hand.
"Let us put an end to that damned monster then. We have fought alongside one another for many moons and I would continue to serve you for many more to come. You have my power, and my loyalty my king. To think that such a little whelp grew to be a monster like your nephew did, it's absurd but he must be put down like any other rabid beast. Let's do this!"
Banero said his face solemn and serious, he had a feeling this would be the last time he'd get to see his king and if it were so then who was he to deny that. He gripped Zuchi's hand gently and a soft smile formed on his face, by his love he was ready for anything.

[Butarega]

Butarega watched as Yamoshi rose with a sense of seriousness, even behind his smile. The Grand Priest must have said something to him that he didn't tell them. He listened as Yamoshi went to Zuchi and Banero and hugged them and spoke to them. He was confused on what was happening, but didn't dare intervene.

Once Yamoshi approached him, he was going to bow but was stopped by Roma. He looked to his sister, then back to Yamoshi as he began to speak. He heard Yamoshi's kind words as he was pulled to the side of Yamoshi's head. He heard what his brother had whispered and knew whatever the Grand Priest told him was tearing him apart.

Once Yamoshi declared they needed to do the ritual he nodded and stood behind his brother, placing one palm on his back and gripping Banero's in his other. He looked forward and said, "If it weren't for you, I'd be dead brother. You've pulled me out of so many terrible situations and all you would ever say to me was 'I dont want to lose you.' Your definitely the most selfless person i know, but its our turn to be selfless for your sake." He looked to the others and nodded his head as he waited for his sister.

[Roma]

Yamoshi was still trying to process what he was informed by the Grand Priest. His friends and family would die just so he could fight Cumber and save his people. Though his friends will die honorably, he couldn't bare watching them all die. He was snapped out of his thoughts when Butarega spoke to him.

He looked to Zuchi and said, "Zuchi... you are a strong and dignified saiyan woman. I appreciate all your help in making our troop proud warriors. Youve helped them see the passion of fighting and compassion of having a heart of gold." Yamoshi pulled Zuchi in and hugged her tightly. He released her and shifted his attention to Banero.

Yamoshi walked over and stood in front of Banero. He gave Banero a cocky grin and said, "Lieutenant Banero, my strong and powerful saiyan champion. You are my most powerful lieutenant in my army and one of the few I trust. I appreciate all you have done for me my friend." He leaned forward and embrace Banero in a hug.

Yamoshi slowly approached his family and said, "My family... you are the one's who have kept me going all this time. It saddens me that Leatz cannot be here with us. We will see him again one day when we all make our way to the Otherworld." He looked over towards Butarega and smiled. He looked to his brother and said, "Butarega... you are my closest friend and ally. You are my best friend and I appreciate everything you have done for me. You kept me in line when I lost myself in emotion."

He pulled himself back together and released them from his hold. He raised his head and said, "We must start the ritual now, before Cumber tries to stop us." He took a few steps ahead of everyone and remained with his back turned to his friends.

Roma watched with the most solemn of hearts as she watched Yamoshi speak to everyone. She knew by the tone and the words used that this was likely a farewell and as she listened to him speak she thought of what Grand Priest said to them and she understood what he meant by giving it their all. It was gonna take every ounce of energy they had and then some to pull this off. She waited patiently as he finished speaking with Budarega and when he turned to her eyes were on the verge of tears. She heard what he said to her and she said, "I was always meant to be with you and nothing could or ever will change that." She then felt him as he grabbed her and pulled both her and her brother in for a hug. When he released them she heard him speak and she said, "You do have the strength because we have the strength to stand here right now for you...and you are our only hope of stopping him before he destroys more than just our people...be strong for us and be strong for our people..." She said then said as she stepped forward and kissed him, "I love you my dear from now until the end of time I will always be here..." and she placed her hand over his heart.

Roma then took his hand and placed it on her stomach and she knew he could feel the baby move. She then said, "This is to ensure the survival of our race." She then stepped back and as he said it was time and he turned to face away from them a single tear fell down her cheek and she took her brothers hand and then both Zuchi and Banero put their hands on both Budarega's and her shoulder, and both her and Budarega looked at each other a moment then put their hands on his shoulders.

[Narrator]

As the chosen of the saiyan race; Yamoshi, Roma, Butarega, Banero, Zuchi and the unborn child within Roma would begin the ritual to help Yamoshi ascend to his rightful place as the Saiyan God. As everyone gathered behind Yamoshi, he immediately went into super saiyan as a yellow aura surrounded the group as everyone present became Super Saiyans as well. As the group looked around towards each other and saw the drastic awakening, Yamoshi closed his eyes and began to weep.

Though no one was able to see his tears or feel his trembling, Roma and Butarega gripped his shoulders tightly letting him know they are there. Everyone was in awe of their newfound transformations and looked towards Yamoshi with smiles. Suddenly the color of the aura surrounding everyone became a blue fiery aura throughout the circle, signifying the ritual is working.

Yamoshi began to ascend into the air and transform into the Super Saiyan God, as promised by Grand Priest. As the flaming blue aura wrapped around Yamoshi and was absorbed into him, a gust of wind was formed around him as a blazing red aura surrounded him. The most notable change is the slight pink skin tone and his hair was that in a shade of crimson red. His hair retains its natural style, but becomes more refined. Yamoshi's eyes became more detailed and the irises became red. His overall body structure appears to become younger and thinner in frame and build. His aura of the Super Saiyan God resembles that of a raging fire.

Yamoshi had ascended into his new form and slowly levitate back towards the ground. Once landed, he kept his back turned away from everyone. His tears still fell as he heard bodies starting to hit the floor. The first to fall was Zuchi. She could feel her life drained and her time in the universe was over. As she fell to the ground, she continued to hold onto Banero's hand. As her life faded, she looked at her friends one last time with a smile on her face. She closed her eyes and passed away peacefully.

The next to fall was Banero. He held Zuchi's hand tightly as to not lose her in his final moments. He held the love of his life's hand tightly as he landed next to her. He looked over towards her as he watched her pass on and slowly leaned in and kissed her on the cheek. As he kissed her, he felt his consciousness slip and he looked back towards everyone smiling, for he knew he did the right thing. He leaned his head back and passed away smiling.

Following behind Banero was Butarega. He held Yamoshi's armor tightly in one hand and Banero's hand in the other. Ad his body gave out, he let go of Yamoshi's armor and collapse to the floor. He looked at his sister and gave her a weak nod. He looked to his two fallen comrades and saw they had passed with smiles. He looked back to Yamoshi and and smiled once more. He knew his brother wouldn't let him down and he passed away smiling.

The final one to fall was Roma. As her body fell, Yamoshi turned around and caught her. He slowly lowered her body to the ground and held her head up to look at him. She was truly weakened and barely holding on. Yamoshi looked to his wife as the tears began to fall onto her face. This was Roma's final moment with her husband.

[Roma]

As the ritual commenced Roma gave everything she had and as she gave over all her ki and her lifeforce she kept her eyes on Yamoshi's back and watched in amazement as he transformed before her eyes and as she felt her lifeforce leave her body she watched as Yamoshi turned and caught her and the two of them collapsed to the floor as Yamoshi held her. She saw his tears and she reached up with what strength she had left and wiped the tears away and said, "I believe in you my love...save our people..." She said as she put her hand to his face and as her body gave out she mouthed the words "I love you..." and her eyes then closed and she fell limp in his arms as she took her last breath.

[Yamoshi]

Yamoshi's final moment with his wife had torn his heart apart. As she tried to wipe his tears and told him she believed in him, he attempted to look away. Roma, though weak and barely holding on, pulled his head back to look at her and he saw her say I love you to him one final time. He placed his hand on his wife's stomach and could not feel his unborn son any longer. As he watched his wife die, he let out a roar. Not a roar of rage, but a roar of sorrow and it echoed acrossed Planet Sadala.

Yamoshi continued to cry as he held the lifeless body of his wife in his arms. He then said in a low voice, "Please keep your promise to me Grand Priest. Please allow us to be reunited someday." He lifted his wife's body and carried her out into the garden. He placed her under her favorite tree and began to dig. Though he could do it in an instance, he took his time with digging up four graves for his family. He returned to the room and grabbed Zuchi.

He placed her in her grave and buried her with his own to hands. He then retrieved Banero's body and laid him in the grave next to Zuchi. Next was Butarega and he was placed in the third grave. Finally it was Roma's turn. He wasn't prepared to let her go, but he knew he had to. With tears streaming down his face he buried his wife after placing her hands on her stomach to help cradle his lost child. He sat by their graves for a few minutes crying.

After a few moments he began to sing a song of farewell. He looked to their graves with misty eyes and sang, "And I don't want my people to see me, because I don't think that they'd understand. When my heart has been broken,I just want them to know I'm only mortal." He stayed at the graves, tuning out everything around him until he heard the voices of his friends in unison say, "We love you Yamoshi, now please save our people." His mind finally clear, Yamoshi rose from his seat and looked to the skies.

He could still see all the saiyans that his brother had brought to try and take over his home hovering in the sky. He could also hear the screams of his people and the sounds of explosions from Cumber's attacks. He took a deep breath and launched himself into the sky. He flew higher and higher into the sky, until he saw the ruins of his home. While hovering in the air, he took in one more deep breath and yelled out, "MY FELLOW SAIYANS FROM ACROSS THE MULTIVERSE!!!"

He paused and waited until he felt the weight of a thousand eyes on his shoulders on him. He looked around and continued to yell, "I AM YAMOSHI, CHOSEN LEFT HAND OF THE OMNI-KING AND I PROMISE I WILL RESCUE YOU ALL FROM THE EVIL WITHIN YOUR HEARTS!!!" He pulled his arms to his chest and crossed them as he gathered his newfound powers. He charged his ki for a minute and then let out a massive ki explosion.

Though it seemed to be an attack, it was his final act to save his race from the evil that corrupted their hearts. As the wave a ki washed over every saiyan around Sadala, he focused on curing them of their dark affliction. No harm was done to any of the saiyans, except for Cumber. Cumber would feel his body burn all over as this divine purifying ki washed over his body. A few moments passed as the wave dissipated and Yamoshi yelled once more, "YOU ARE FREE OF THE DARKNESS AND FREE TO LIVE YOUR LIVES IN PEACE!!! NOW FLEE SO I MAY DEAL WITH THE MONSTER CUMBER MYSELF" Yamoshi turned and saw his nephew on the ground.

Yamoshi lowered himself back to the planet's surface, breathing heavily. He looked over and saw Uzaki wounded and went to his comrades side. He placed a hand on Uzaki's shoulder and healed his wounds completely. Yamoshi looked to Uzaki and said, "Get our people out of here. I can't face Cumber until they are gone." Yamoshi could feel his body burning from the inside. He wasn't sure how long he could keep his god form, but he had to hold it long enough for his people to escape.

He rose to his feet and wiped the sweat from his brow. He turned his attention to Cumber and stood as a beacon of hope. He looked to Cumber, with rage in his voice, said, "Come Cumber, let us end this nightmare with your death."

[Uzaki Chikimaru]

Uzaki felt the roar of Yamoshi come from the palace, feeling the pressure of his transformation. He could only watch prone as the Saiyan God landed not far from him and he could tell the strain Yamoshi was under even though he could not sense his ki. He felt his vision fade when Yamoshi noticed him and walked over to heal him. When he spoke Uzaki nodded in understanding.
"Kill that fuck, just make sure to throw a few for me. I will do as you wish my Lord."
Uzaki said and shot off to help vacate the planet

[Cumber]

Yamoshi's final moment with his wife had torn his heart apart. As she tried to wipe his tears and told him she believed in him, he attempted to look away. Roma, though weak and barely holding on, pulled his head back to look at her and he saw her say I love you to him one final time. He placed his hand on his wife's stomach and could not feel his unborn son any longer. As he watched his wife die, he let out a roar. Not a roar of rage, but a roar of sorrow and it echoed acrossed Planet Sadala.

Yamoshi continued to cry as he held the lifeless body of his wife in his arms. He then said in a low voice, "Please keep your promise to me Grand Priest. Please allow us to be reunited someday."

He pulled his arms to his chest and crossed them as he gathered his newfound powers. He charged his ki for a minute and then let out a massive ki explosion.

Though it seemed to be an attack, it was his final act to save his race from the evil that corrupted their hearts. As the wave a ki washed over every saiyan around Sadala, he focused on curing them of their dark affliction. No harm was done to any of the saiyans, except for Cumber. Cumber would feel his body burn all over as this divine purifying ki washed over his body. A few moments passed as the wave dissipated and Yamoshi yelled once more, "YOU ARE FREE OF THE DARKNESS AND FREE TO LIVE YOUR LIVES IN PEACE!!! NOW FLEE SO I MAY DEAL WITH THE MONSTER CUMBER MYSELF" Yamoshi turned and saw his nephew on the ground.

Yamoshi lowered himself back to the planet's surface, breathing heavily. He looked over and saw Uzaki wounded and went to his comrades side. He placed a hand on Uzaki's shoulder and healed his wounds completely. Yamoshi looked to Uzaki and said, "Get our people out of here. I can't face Cumber until they are gone." Yamoshi could feel his body burning from the inside. He wasn't sure how long he could keep his god form, but he had to hold it long enough for his people to escape.

He rose to his feet and wiped the sweat from his brow. He turned his attention to Cumber and stood as a beacon of hope. He looked to Cumber, with rage in his voice, said, "Come Cumber, let us end this nightmare with your death."

Cumber had been causing pure chaos when he felt a change in the air. He then looked towards the palace as he heard a yell filled with sorrow. He then saw the sky darken and then he saw Yamoshi as he shot up into the sky. He noticed as he looked way different and he couldn't feel his ki. He also felt the sudden disappearance of four ki signatures right before Yamoshi showed up in his new form. This made him laugh with knowledge of what just happened.

He then heard Yamoshi's booming voice call out to the saiyans that were alive and this made him cross his arms as he hovered in the air. He was then taken off guard as Yamoshi expelled a massive amount of healing god ki across the area. He saw as this happened that several of the saiyans that were infected with evil ki including Uzaki, who was once infected but then healed but severely injured get healed. This very action infuriated him but before he could respond he felt Yamoshi's ki touched him and burned his skin as it tried to expel the evil in his heart but his evil was too great and it left his skin scalded and scarred. Though for a bare moment he felt the ki and felt a moment of realization but then his evil just retook his whole existence.

He then felt pure rage at the damage from the ki and as he looked at Yamoshi and he heard him challenge him to end his reign of terror. He then drew on his ki and went up to super saiyan and then he charged at Yamoshi and started a fight that shook the very planet. He then said as he hovered in the air, "What is this form you have here?...was this what caused the sudden disappearance of those four ki signatures I just felt?..."

[Uzaki Chikimaru]

Uzaki shot around collecting survivors of Cumber's wrath and when he got all of the survivors of Sadala he opened a portal and explained to them to enter through to reach safety, he had located a planet they could to that was safely far enough from the battle. When they had he shot towards the Saiyans above the planet and inside it's atmosphere that were restored from the dark ki by Yamoshi and stopped before them, recognizing many of them as his clan members.
"My friends, I have located a new home for you to escape to alongside the Saiyans of this planet. You must flee through the portal I shall open for you, remain strong."
Uzaki said and opened a portal for the other Saiyans watching them flee through it.

[Yamoshi]

Yamoshi was exhausted from purifying all of the saiyans afflicted by Akumo. He watched as Cumber charged up and began his assault. He was keeping up with the brute, but was exhausted. He heard Cumber's question and gritted his teeth with rage. He saw an opening and caught Cumber under the chin with a massive uppercut. He watched as Cumber slid away and he said in a guttural voice, "If you must know Cumber... this is Super Saiyan God and with the sacrifice of my family, I was able to attain this power. Now you will know the full wrath of the saiyans of Universe 7."

Yamoshi charged forwards and began to lay into Cumber, pushing him further back with every punch. Every punch he landed sent a planet shattering crack across the universe. As he gained the upper hand, Yamoshi flipped over Cumber and slammed his face into the ground with a solid kick. He stood above Cumber waiting for him to get up. As Cumber rose from the ground and his dark claws appeared, Yamoshi continued to look down on the pathetic excuse of a nephew.

Cumber then turned and tried to slash at Yamoshi with his shadow claws, but swung at nothing. Cumber looked around, but couldn't see any sign of his target, until he was struck in the chest by a ki enveloped punch from Yamoshi. Yamoshi looked up at Cumber and said, "Your too slow. Maybe you should try a little harder, otherwise I'll kill you now." Yamoshi then drove his fist deeper into Cumber's gut and had the ki around his fist explode launching Cumber into a mountain.

Yamoshi stood there panting and breathing heavily. His onslaught was taking its toll on his body and he didn't have much longer. He had to do something to stop Cumber right now.

[Uzaki Chikimaru]

Uzaki watched as Yamoshi laid into Cumber from afar as the fleeing Saiyans went through the portal, he could sense Yamoshi's life energy wavering and knew he would surely be on his last leg at this point. Uzaki thought back to when Yamoshi could have slaughtered him but instead purified Uzaki's mind and soul and welcomed him as one of his own, even when Yamoshi's friends and family didn't.
A sudden sense of helplessness washed over Uzaki, he knew that there was nothing he could do to help in any of this other than run like a coward. Akumo had shown his true honor and sacrificed his life to attempt to stop his child but it did nothing to him, what would anything he could do to Cumber do other than piss him off. That helplessness soon turned to anger and a welling power from within Uzaki emerged as his power spiked and his aura turned a bright purple. Uzaki smirked as he activated a hidden technique he had left for the Chikimaru Clan, the Arcane Wrath. He watched as Yamoshi fought to catch his breath Uzaki focused all of his energy into his hand, sending a parting gift of his energy and power then turned to depart and close the portal behind him

[Cumber]

Yamoshi was exhausted from purifying all of the saiyans afflicted by Akumo. He watched as Cumber charged up and began his assault. He was keeping up with the brute, but was exhausted. He heard Cumber's question and gritted his teeth with rage. He saw an opening and caught Cumber under the chin with a massive uppercut. He watched as Cumber slid away and he said in a guttural voice, "If you must know Cumber... this is Super Saiyan God and with the sacrifice of my family, I was able to attain this power. Now you will know the full wrath of the saiyans of Universe 7."

Yamoshi charged forwards and began to lay into Cumber, pushing him further back with every punch. Every punch he landed sent a planet shattering crack across the universe. As he gained the upper hand, Yamoshi flipped over Cumber and slammed his face into the ground with a solid kick. He stood above Cumber waiting for him to get up. As Cumber rose from the ground and his dark claws appeared, Yamoshi continued to look down on the pathetic excuse of a nephew.

Cumber then turned and tried to slash at Yamoshi with his shadow claws, but swung at nothing. Cumber looked around, but couldn't see any sign of his target, until he was struck in the chest by a ki enveloped punch from Yamoshi. Yamoshi looked up at Cumber and said, "Your too slow. Maybe you should try a little harder, otherwise I'll kill you now." Yamoshi then drove his fist deeper into Cumber's gut and had the ki around his fist explode launching Cumber into a mountain.

Yamoshi stood there panting and breathing heavily. His onslaught was taking its toll on his body and he didn't have much longer. He had to do something to stop Cumber right now.

Cumber was looking at Yamoshi when he spoke and when Yamoshi responded to his questions with a brutal attack filled with speed and a strength that infuriated him. He then got hit hard upside the chin and it rattled his jaw and drew blood. He then glared at Yamoshi and scoffed at his proclamation of the true power of universe seven. But before he had a chance to comment back he found himself under a brutal attack.

As Yamoshi dealt his attack, Cumber allowed the hits to move him but he was also working to block and counter the hits, but he was also analyzing his uncle's current state. When he was forced to the ground after having many hits dealt to him by Yamoshi he looked up at his uncle, gave a snarl and formed his shadow claws. He went to swipe at his uncle but missed.

Cumber was then taken by surprise as he got a ki encased punch to the gut that exploded and launched him into a mountain. When he emerged from the mountain side his anger was at a hole new level.

He looked at his uncle with a burning rage and as he did his aura went to a deep red with a dark and evil center core that was as black as night. He was then distracted when he saw Uzaki was still alive and he saw as he offered up energy to Yamoshi. He was not fast enough to stop the donation of ki energy and he growled at Uzaki, raised his hand and fired a ki blast at him, but he was not fast enough as Uzaki went into a portal.

Cumber then looked back at Yamoshi and saw him panting and as he saw this he gave a wicked smile then flew at him and as he did he had both of his shadow hands out and meant to catch him and slam him. When he did this you could see how tattered he was looking.

[Yamoshi]

Yamoshi was exhausted and felt his body burning all over. He watched as Cumber began to move once more. He stood strong, even though he was at his limit. Suddenly a wellspring of incredible energy welled up within him. He looked up and saw Uzaki in a newer form with his arm stretched out. A moment later, Uzaki walked into the portal and disappeared. Yamoshi smiled as one of his last comrades had made it away safely.

Yamoshi watched as his nephew growled at Uzaki and attempted to attack him, but was to slow to catch him. He was still breathing heavy, even though Uzaki offered up his energy. It seemed what was going on with him was due to his new power. He wasn't paying attention and Cumber had jumped down and attacked him. His nephew's shadow hands wrapped around him and slammed him into the ground. Yamoshi let out a gasp of pain, but he could also see Cumber was damaged.

Yamoshi spun around quickly on his hands and broke free from the grasp of Cumber's shadow claws. As he did he flipped backwards, kicking Cumber in his jaw. Once he landed he looked as Cumber was still recovering from his kick that he was able to close the distance rather quickly. As he got in front of Cumber he began another round of attacks. First he lead with a fast tapping uppercut, followed by a barrage of punches to the end of the combination. He landed multiple body blows as well as head blows, before stepping back.

He looked as Cumber was having a hard time recovering and charged more ki into his fist. As he lunged forward, he sank his fist deep into Cumber's gut once more and exploded the ki once more. This time he only was able to push Cumber back a few feet. Yamoshi staggered as he gripped his chest and was having a hard time catching his breath. He looked to his nephew as his vision blurred and his power diminished. He felt the power of the Super Saiyan God leave him causing him to revert to his base form.

[Cumber]

Yamoshi was exhausted and felt his body burning all over. He watched as Cumber began to move once more. He stood strong, even though he was at his limit. Suddenly a wellspring of incredible energy welled up within him. He looked up and saw Uzaki in a newer form with his arm stretched out. A moment later, Uzaki walked into the portal and disappeared.

He looked to his nephew as his vision blurred and his power diminished. He felt the power of the Super Saiyan God leave him causing him to revert to his base form.

As Cumber came down on Yamoshi with his shadow hands and slammed him into the ground he could hear the grunts of pain Yamoshi expelled. He was then taken off guard as Yamoshi broke free of his grip, spun around and laid into him with a powerful bought of punches and kicks and then topped it by a punch to the gut that finished with a ki explosion that sent him back and holding his stomach.

Cumber coughed as he felt the searing pain in his gut and as he looked at his hand he saw the blood. He then looked up at his uncle and as he did he saw the super saiyan God form he had vanish in a shutter. He could see the toll it took on his uncle and a wicked grin formed on his face and as he grinned he flew in and caught yamoshi by the neck with his left hand. He then said, "You are spent...i can see it in your eyes and now i will watch as you die!!...you have saved no one this day!!..." and he slammed his fist through his chest...

[Yamoshi]

Yamoshi was exhausted and his God powers were gone. His vision was starting to fade when he felt a hand wrap around his neck and tighten to a point that he couldn't breathe. His vision slowly disappeared as Cumber mocked him and then the pain came. Though he couldn't see what had happen, he felt an excruciating pain come from his chest. He blinked rapidly and his sight returned. He looked down once Cumber let go of his throat and saw what Cumber had done.

He reached down to try and remove the hand, but his body gave out. He slumped forward and leaned into his nephew. As his life began to fade a cacophony of voices came to him as a ringing began in his ears. It was difficult for him to hear what the voices were saying. He said to himself, "Shut up... just let... me die... in... peace." Suddenly, the voice became clear and he heard the voices of his family screaming at him. They all repeated the same thing over and over again. With one final scream he heard them say, "YAMOSHI!!! YOU CANT GIVE UP YET!!!! KILLHIM AND AVENGE US!!!!" Yamoshi lifted his head and stared into Cumber's eyes.

No one else, but Cumber would see what happened. Yamoshi's eyes shifted from the brilliant golden iris to rageful red. He stared at Cumber and reached forward and grabbed his face. He pulled Cumber's face to his as his chest slid further down Cumber's arms. He stared deeper into Cumber's eyes and said, "There is a stubbornness about me that never can bear to be frightened at the will of others. My courage always rises at every attempt to intimidate me. Whoever has experienced the power and the unrestrained ability to humiliate another being automatically loses his own sensations. Tyranny is a habit, it has its own organic life, it develops finally into a disease. The habit can kill and coarsen the very best man or woman to the level of a beast. Blood and power intoxicate ... the return of the human dignity, repentance and regeneration becomes almost impossible."

Yamoshi's hand began to burn as his fiery aura of his god form returned. His body was enveloped and the air around Cumber and Yamoshi began to distort. Yamoshi slammed his head into Cumber's and said, "The one thing ... that is truly ugly is the climate of hate and intimidation, created by a noisy few, which makes the decent majority reluctant to the fact that it is no more than talk from cowards. You being the leader means the punishment of your actions fall to you, and you alone Cumber. You will know my wrath and those who still follow shall know true terror Cumber. You are nothing more than a mistake given a body. You are nothing more than a failure of the saiyan race."

Yamoshi removed his hands from Cumber's face and ignited his right hand with crimson flaming ki. Never taking his eyes off Cumber he yells, "YOU MAY HAVE KILLED ME BOY!!! BUT YOU WILL NOT LEAVE THIS BATTLE UNSCATHED!!! I WILL MARK YOU SO YOU ARE ALWAYS REMINDED OF WHAT YOU WILL FACE IN THE FUTURE!!! I WILL RETURN AND WHEN I DO... I'LL FINISH WHAT I STARTED!!!" Yamoshi plunged his ki blade into Cumber's face, slicing down to the bone. He retracted his ki blade and let the energy disperse.

Yamoshi felt his body give out and as he fell into Cumber he said, "Forgive me Cumber... I failed to save... the last of my family..." Yamoshi's body went limp as it hung from Cumber's arm. The Super Saiyan God Yamoshi had fallen, before he could finish his task.

[Vegata]

When cumber went to go grab Roma, he just smirked at his level of craftiness. "That was easier than I thought it was. His desire to prove himself above his uncle will be his downfall, and soon both of them will kill the other, and I will rein supreme!"After waiting for those few crucial moments, he made his way back to planet sadala, making sure blend in to the background of his saiyans brothers and sisters. However, nothing was able to prepare him for the consequences his actions has brought upon his race.

A week has passed since that fateful day cumber kidnapped Roma and vegata was busy training with everyone when he saw the sky go black and countless energies were all around the planet. He was gonna fight until he saw cumber. Despite the fact he should be afraid, he was happy a bit. He prayed that Cumber would kill yamoshi and the family. However, his heart sank when he saw his warriors being corrupted by the evil ki. No, this wasn't what he wanted. Not his warriors, not his friends. Trying to help the civilians escape, he felt leatzs energy vanish. He thought he would feel euphoria of him being killed, but he didn't. He could remember watching Leatz growing up to be a fine warrior. It made him sad that he caused him to die.

He got as many of his friends and warriors to safety. He got onto a rock formation to look out in the distance. All around him, saiyans with evil ki destroying one's who weren't, Cumber killing and corrupting others, and it was all his fault. His idea, his stubbornness, his scheming ways just cost him... everything. It was all too much to bear, and he pounded the ground in frustration. Tears started coming down his face as he screams out in pain and sadness.

He could feel the royal family passing away in the distance then an absurd amount of pressure coming from the royal palace. He couldn't tell what it was, but he knew something was going on. Then he heard the kings booming voice echoing across the planet. He thought that with him alive and beating up cumber up in the process, he felt ecstatic that the crisis was over. And yet, something was off within him. He felt himself starting to feel that energy of jealousy, of hatred. Vegeta started to believe that if it wasn't for them and yamoshi, things wouldn't be as bad as there are. So there he was, watching everything go down. One side wanted this to end, while another wanted yamoshi to die.

[Cumber]

Yamoshi was exhausted and his God powers were gone. His vision was starting to fade when he felt a hand wrap around his neck and tighten to a point that he couldn't breathe. His vision slowly disappeared as Cumber mocked him and then the pain came. Though he couldn't see what had happen, he felt an excruciating pain come from his chest.

Yamoshi plunged his ki blade into Cumber's face, slicing down to the bone. He retracted his ki blade and let the energy disperse.

Yamoshi felt his body give out and as he fell into Cumber he said, "Forgive me Cumber... I failed to save... the last of my family..." Yamoshi's body went limp as it hung from Cumber's arm. The Super Saiyan God Yamoshi had fallen, before he could finish his task.

As Cumber felt for sure his victory was assured and he had his hand through Yamoshi's chest he was suddenly surprised as he found he couldn't pull away. He had rage in his eyes and as he looked at his uncle and he saw his eyes turn from brilliant gold to a wicked red that made him pause. He found himself caught in words coming from his uncle that gave him pause. He then felt the fury of his god ki return and it began to burn his arm and his face.

Cumber heard every word his uncle said and the words cut like a knife and when he saw Yamoshi pull his hand away and formed a menacing flaming red ki blade his eyes burned with rage and before he could find the strength to pull away, Yamoshi caught him by the face and spoke the harshest words he ever heard from his uncle and then cut him down to the bone leaving a wound on his face that was devastating. He roared in pain and then he felt his uncle go limp as his god ki left his body and so did his life. Cumber looked at his uncle and he had only a small moment of pause then the evil that burned inside him took over again. He felt the pain in his right hand from the burns he received and he balled his hand into a fist, drew on his evil ki and blasted his uncles now dead body away from him in disgust.

Cumber then looked around and found most of the residents either dead or gone and he roared in anger. He then reached out for as much of his evil ki he could muster and he aimed at corrupting the planet, to infect it with such a toxic levels of evil that the planet would wither and die and become unlivable in a very short time.

[Fu]

Fu had been watching the events unfold from a safe distance. His eyes were locked onto Cumber and he was absolutely fascinated by this saiyan and his strength. He wanted him and as he saw everything that climaxed and he saw the devastation he caused he knew now was the time because he could also see that the amount of ki he just expelled also left him weakened. He then appeared not far from Cumber and as he hovered he said, "Well well well...how very fascinating...I can see you have gotten yourself into a situation here Cumber and it won't be long before your actions will be acknowledged by the Omni King...so let me make you an offer...come work for me and I will will bring you somewhere the Omni King can't touch and I will make you stronger than you ever thought possible..." he said with a smile on his face as he hovered with his arms crossed.

[Cumber]

Cumber heard a voice address him by name and he turned to look and he saw a purple skinned being hovering not far off. He heard what he said but was not interested. that was until he heard him speak of the Omni King and he gave a moment of pause. He then scoffed and went to send a ki blast at him as if swatting a fly but he found the stranger fast. And suddenly he disappeared and as he looked around and turned he saw Fu face to face with him and he went to punch him but the stranger was both incredibly fast and amazingly strong and as he went to punch him Fu caught his hand and squeezed and he felt his bones in his hand pop as they broke under his grip.

Cumber was left with a shocked look on his face and he turned and looked at Fu in the eyes and he realized this guy was a demon. He then heard him said, "Let me rephrase what I said...this is not an offer but a request I will not refuse."

Cumber then looked as he saw Fu raise his hand and he did something because before he could respond he passed out and when he woke he was locked in a room with chains holding him and binding holding his hands in a restraint and he had his mouth covered. In this moment he knew he entered a hell he would never forget for this guy knew every way possible to block him from using his abilities.

[Narrator]

With the death of Yamoshi and the capture of Cumber, the events that began the saiyans down the dark path. With the new leadership of Vegata, the saiyans went and took over a docile planet known as Planet Plant. Planet Plant was later home to two races: the Tuffles and the Saiyans. The Tuffles were a diminutive race, native to Planet Plant, who lacked physical strength and toughness, but were very intelligent and skilled with technology. By contrast, the Saiyans were average-sized, but very strong and fierce. Despite their incredible powers, the Saiyans were primitive and backwards, and lived in small clans scattered across the deserts of Planet Plant.

Life was a peaceful one, until suddenly, around Age 720, the Saiyans decided to launch a full-scale war against the Tuffles. Led by King Vegeta, the Saiyans declared war on the Tuffles, starting a conflict known as the Saiyan-Tuffle war. King Vegeta started the war against the Tuffles so he could take over the planet. The Saiyans were giants compared to the Tuffles but, due to the latter's technology, they managed to keep the war at a stalemate. Then, around Age 730, something happened that gave the Saiyans the upper hand. The full moon came up, something that only happened once every eight years, and the Saiyans gained the ability to transform into Great Apes. In their new forms, they easily defeated and obliterated the Tuffles and took over the planet, renaming it "Planet Vegeta" after their king.

Soon, around Age 730, the Saiyans are discovered by the Arcosians and King Cold in Age 731. The Saiyans served under King Cold and the Planet Trade Organization until Cold retired in Age 732 and handed the reigns of power over his son Frieza. Frieza found that the Saiyans were strong and had a love of fighting, so he began to employing them to destroy entire races and take over their planets to bring about Frieza's dream of ruling the entire universe. Planet Vegeta was soon transformed into a military base, with many of Frieza's men stationed there alongside the Saiyans. Young Saiyans with low battle powers were sent off to other planets to wipe out the inhabitants, making the planet fit to sell.

The Saiyans increased their strength quickly and, around Age 735, Frieza grew concerned that they would eventually rise up and overthrow him. While Frieza had little fear of lone Saiyans, their power in numbers was evident. Too prideful to admit it, he also harbored a secret fear of the "Super Saiyan of Legend", which he believed was not merely a fable. Frieza's henchmen, Zarbon and Dodoria, suggested that that it would be wise for him to wipe out the Saiyans before their power grew out of control.

A few Saiyans, including King Vegeta, caught wind of Frieza's plan and began plotting against him. The Saiyan warrior Bardock survived an ambush from Frieza's older brother, Cooler. With the cooperation of Bardock and King Vegeta, they were able to diminish most of the Frieza Force. They then attacked Frieza, but his strength was overwhelming and he defeated them easily. To rid himself of the Saiyan menace forever, he destroyed the planet along with nearly all of the Saiyans, the only survivors being Raditz, Nappa, Prince Vegeta, Tarble, Kakarot, Broly, Paragus and five other unknown Saiyans.

Our story begins on the fated day of Destruction.
