//------------------------------// // Chapter 65: Restoration // Story: Saiyan of Equestria // by Boyzilla //------------------------------// Tournament Saga Chapter 65: Restoration It was one of the few times a Z-fighter would fear, especially if he was a saiyan to boot. Against a enemy, Chris Dell would be unafraid of anything, little could scare him. But this moment, when Kira fell to the ground have such a overuse of a combination of both Super Saiyan and Kaio-Ken left the father of the twins fearful for her life. The damage on the half saiyan eight year old was very apparent; rushed to medical room, Kira was being treated by half a dozen doctors, nurses, and other types of medical experts trying to save the girl's life. The injuries were astronomical, the child's entire body seem to suffer from severe stress, blood loss, internal injury, first degree burns. In layman's terms, Kira's body was on the verge of death, nerves seem to be literally on the edge of bursting, tears in her skin from the places it did open up. The unicorns casting healing spells could only do so much, substitute zebra herbalist recipes reducing the burns as the spells were focused on internal injuries and nerve damage. Ken only watched from the distance, heart pumping madly in fear, while Chris watched closely from within. 'She'll live, dang it Kira, that was idiotic to the highest degree! How could you do such a thing! Your body can't handle that level of stress!' 'Will nee-chan be alright, dad?' Ken asked. 'No, not unless you got some miracle under your belt. She'll be crippled for a few years to come, only thanks that she's half saiyan that she'll be able to recover fully at all!' 'How did she survive doing that attack?' Ken questioned, 'It looked really dangerous.' Chris remained silent for a brief moment, before responding, 'Well, from what I theorize, Kira survived thanks to multiple factors.' He began. 'First is her hybrid potential as I call it, the uniqueness of it relieved her body of some of the stress from the overwhelming power increase. Secondly, is that she's part saiyan in the first place. My surrogate brother, Goku, managed to do a twenty Kaio-Ken when his limit was only ten against Frieza. He survived and could still fight.' 'Okay... And the third reason?' 'Her endurance levels is astounding, in the comparison between you and her, she could take ten times more damage than you ever could. While you would have a much larger Ki reserve thanks to me. The training with Raze under thirty times normal gravity helped her immensely.' Chris explained. 'And maybe it was also due to the fact she was a Super Saiyan, but that's up to debate as I've never seen Kaio-Ken used in Super Saiyan form.' Ken sighed, his back laying against the wall, "I'm just happy that Kira's alive..." 'As am I...' It was in that moment, Scorpan came down the hallway. The giant fighter's large form walking down with loud steps before stopping right outside Kira's door, and in front of Ken. He turned his head toward the direction of our young hero. "Your sister looked to be much stronger than you, she's the challenge I've been told of." Scorpan said. Ken responded with a glare, "She can't fight you now, she won't recover before the match, for years!" He exclaimed in anger at the centaur. Scorpan merely grinned, it wasn't one of malice, but on one with knowledge. "Don't worry, I'll make sure she does." The hybrid boy's eyes widened, "W-what?" He said in shock. The centaur turned and entered the room, the sounds of arguments instantly coming about as Scorpan pushed his ways through the numerous nurses and doctors who tried to stop him with words. Ken, having recovered, charged into the room only to stop abruptly once seeing what was taking place. The massive Scorpan stood next to Kira's wounded self, the hybrid girl unconscious on the bed, while the healers stood behind him. Ken prepared to fight as the centaur reached for something and pulled out a small, green item. 'What, how is that possible? How could Scorpan hold a senzu bean?!' Chris exclaimed. Scorpan forced the small bean down Kira's throat, a raspy gasp was heard as the girl's eyes shot open into consiciousness, entire body healing miraculously in seconds. The many wounds such as burns returned to normal skin, tears closed, and the stress that was previously visible calmed and relaxed. Kira sat upright, Ken could sense his sister's Ki levels shoot off the roof as her saiyan genetics increased her power dramatically, the Zenkai Boost taking effect. "What... Where am I?" Kira voiced her thoughts as she glanced around her, before looking up at Scorpan. "Now you are healed, I look forward to our fight." Scorpan said to her, before turning and leaving the room, the stunned healers and Ken standing still as he left them. Ken rushed to his sister, "Nee-chan, your going to be okay! I can't believe it! I thought Scorpan was a villain, but he healed you up in no time flat!" Kira tilted her head puzzlingly, "I don't understand... But... I guess that's good?" "How do you feel?" A nearby doctor said. Kira looked to the doctor, "I'm starving!" She replied. The entire room fell on their back right afterward, "Hold it! So you're telling me... That our supposedly arch enemy in this Tournament... Magically healed you fully with a single bean just so that he can fight you?" Copper Will said, completely and utterly confused at the prospect of the enemy healing their competition. "That seems awfully nice, convenient, and raises a load of questions." Kira waved it off, "At least the doctors let me leave, took like, mom's full powered yelling technique to convince them." She said with a wide grin. "Hehe," Ken giggled at his twin sister's description of what their mother did. "Yeah, it was awesome." He commented as his tail wiggled behind him. Copper Will blinked, "Ack- Just... Nevermind... You two are so optimistically positive about everything! Why do I know you two?" He questioned. "Cause we're your friends!" Ken answered like it was a everyday question. The minotaur sighed, "I guess so now... I guess so..." "Oh don't be such a grump!" Kira said, patting the minotaur child on the back, "You got to be more joyful that things go so well, Copper-san!" "Copper-san?" Copper Will arched a eyebrow as he responded. "Honorific suffix," Ken replied in explanation. "I don't even want to know anymore," The ten year old minotaur said, "So, are you still going to your match tomorrow?" The little girl had a confused expression, before a happy one overtook it, "Of course, I got to beat up Scorpan so I can win and stuff!" "But he's powerful, like, Colrath powerful!" He responded, "You shouldn't do that move you used against Colrath again." Kira giggled in embarrassment, "Don't worry, I won't even have to. I can fight normally!" "By the way..." Copper began, "What in Tartarus was that golden form you used?" He questioned. "My Super Saiyan form!" Kira answered. "Super Saiyan?" He questioned again. Ken commented, "A super duper Super Saiyan!" 'Hahahaha!' Chris Dell burst into laughter inside the seal. "Not helping, Ken!" Copper Will exclaimed. "Well it's true, it makes us like even stronger and stuff!" Ken said. "That is so unfair, you guys can get even stronger! Totally unfair!" Copper Will exclaimed, throwing his hands into the air as he paced around absently. Kira laughed, before pointing at the minotaur child as she said, "Says mister steel, you can get stronger too! We can all transform! We're like, transformation superheroes!" "Next you're tell me that we're forming a group of special forces or something." Copper Will said, rubbing his head to ease a incoming headache he seems to always get from these two twins. "You never know!" Ken stated, "We just need a guy that's green, someone who's bald, a three eyed person, and finally a bandit of some kind!" "Don't forget a mime!" Kira said, "And a prince of some sort! Mmh, where are we going to find a prince?" "In a alternate Equestria or something, I don't know." Ken said, scratching his cheek in thought. "Maybe we can get a dragon that's green..." "There are bandits all around the badlands," Copper Will suggested, "Wait... Why am I talking about this?" Kira looked to Copper Will, "Well, Copper Will is the bald person." "I guess- Hey! I am not bald!" Copper Will countered. "You don't have hair on the top, just fur. All the other minotaurs have some sort of hair style on top their." Kira said. "Uh... Huh... Never thought about it... Well, guess being bald's good, no one will be able to pull on my hair if I don't got any!" Copper Will said. Ken grinned, giving a thumbs up, "That's the spirit! I'm totally the leader of the group!" "What, no, I am!" Kira retorted as her face turned into an adorable pout. "Girls can't be leaders of a special forces group!" Ken exclaimed, tail wagging about. "Yes they can! Look at Twilight!" Kira argued. "They're not special forces!" Ken yelled back. "Then how about the Wonderbolts! They're like, special forces!" "No, they are show people! Completely different! Didn't you see in Canterlot how all the guards are boys?" "They don't count, they even look identical, that's all magic disguises!" "Princess Celestia and Luna are girls, they practically rule everything!" "They're rulers cause they raise the sun and moon, so of course they rule everything!" "I'm just saying, girls can be leaders for special forces too!" "No they can't!" "Um..." Copper Will interrupted, "I think your mother is calling for you." Ken and Kira stopped there brief argument and turned their attention toward Lyra Heartstrings. The mother had been calling them and finally decided to just make her way toward the two twins and the minotaur friend of them. "Kira... You feeling alright?" Lyra asked, having said the same thing when she first visited Kira after she recovered miraculously. "I'm fine, mommy!" Kira happily replied. "Okay," Lyra said. "We're going back to the hotel room, say goodbye to your friend for now." The Twins turned to Copper Will, and said in unison, "See you later, Copper!" He blinked, "Yeah, see you later too..." The minotaur trailed off. With that, the Heartstrings family left him, meeting up with Bon-Bon soon afterward in which they all together head back towards the hotel room. Where in there, they ate, relaxed, perhaps played a little, ate again, and then slept for the next day. For in the following day, the last match of the Tournament outside the battle with the previous winner would spell who wins the Four Border Tournament. The battle between two titanic forces, Kira versus Scorpan. Many questions plagued Chris's mind that night, who was Scorpan, how did he know about saiyans, where did he get the senzu bean. And above all else, what will happen during the fight, and what will occur after it ends? Tomorrow is another day.
