Chapter 3: Into the Dark




After the bad news that Karatin had brought from the afterlife, the Z-Fighters started training immediately, they wanted to be able to at least counter Daark. Each of them made tremendous progress, Vegeta, Trunks, Gohan and Goten overcame the limits of the double Super Saiya Jin. Piccolo meditated for 18 days without a trace of movement, you could all feel his energy steadily increasing. Meanwhile, Son-Goku tried to increase the speed of the Kame-Hame-Ha. After training for about two months without a break, Goku called the group together. "I feel four energies approaching us, two of which are very similar to Karatin's but a lot weaker. Perhaps it is other Sakur-Han who were able to escape the destruction of their world." "Now that you say it, I can feel them too" , Gohan replied to his father. "When will you be here?", Son-Goten finally asked." I estimate in about two days, "Goku replied.




As Son-Goku had suspected, four capsules entered the atmosphere two days later, landing in the same place as Karatin. The Z group was already waiting for the visitors. More precisely, all except Vegeta, who didn't want to interrupt his training. The capsules opened with a loud hiss. Two tall, gray-skinned guys emerged from the outer capsules. One wore armor that looked almost like Karatin's, the other a kind of white robe. The two looked pretty much alike and had almost the same aura. "I greet you. Welcome to earth. My name is Son-Goku and what is your name?", Son-Goku greeted the two of them. "Where's karatin?" The one on the left asked coldly. "Are you friends of Karatin?" Asked Goten curiously. "You know him? Where is he", the other asked this time. "He's dead. Shortly after his arrival, a servant from Daark came here, we tried to stop him, but he defeated us all and killed him.I'm sorry, "Son-Goku explained to the two of them." That must have been Dorlak, he is the only one of Daark's servants who could defeat Karatin, "said the one on the left in a cold voice." Yes, it was him, "said Son -Gohan back. "So Karatin is really dead? ", suddenly a sad-sounding female voice asked from one of the other two. She got up and got out of the capsule, at first you couldn't see her because the sun was right behind her, but when she took a few steps on top of it Z-Fighter had approached it got better. The group saw a young woman in front of them, she was beautiful and moved gracefully but her face seemed somehow cold. She was a little younger than Trunks and wore armor similar to Karatin, only her was white, as well as the body suit underneath. "I told you to stay in the capsules until we had explored the area," said the left of the two men. "First of all, I can take good care of myself, Nartomac.And secondly, I can't remember that you are in command here, "the woman replied to the warrior." Sincalra, you know how I meant it, besides, I'm in command as long as Karatin is not here. After all, I was the commander of the Royal Guard, as you may remember, "she snapped gruffly at Nartomac." Nartomac, Sincalra, finally put an end to this pointless argument, "suddenly came a female voice from the fourth capsule. The inmates of the others Capsules turned around and the Z-group also looked in the direction of the capsule from which a black silhouette rose. The figure came towards the group, but you could not see it because it wore a kind of robe and its face was covered by the hood was. "Tell me how did karatin die? ", she asked in a soft sounding voice." Shortly after Karatin appeared here, the sky darkened, "explained Son-Goku." Karatin thought that Daark would appear here, then this Dorklak came.He threw Karatin to the ground, we opposed him, but we couldn't do anything against him. He defeated one after the other, I can't tell you what happened next. When we came to, Dorlak was gone and Karatin was dead. "" You forgot something, Father ", Gohan suddenly intervened." Yes, the news, "Goku remembered immediately." What news ? "asked the woman in the robe with a glimmer of hope in her voice." After his death, Karatin contacted us telepathically. He brought us bad news. He told us that Daark is on the way here, "continued Son-Goku." Nothing else? ", asked the woman, startled." Let me think for a moment, "answered Goku." He also said that he did not want to be resuscitated. And then something about a legend that he wants to check, "said Son-Goten while his father was still thinking." A legend ... of course, "the veiled woman exclaimed happily."I know what he's up to. The legend he meant literally goes like this ... Infinite power for those who leave the last frontier behind. Whoever reaches the summit of earthly power, loses his life in the fight against darkness If you gain favor from the gods and return to this world, you will be able to accomplish the impossible ... Karatin tries to become a Chaos-Sakur-Han. "" Chaos-Sakur-Han? ", Asked Son-Goku, Son-Gohan and Picollo at the same time . "A living god," replied the woman in the robe proudly. "He would have infinite energy, limitless strength, not even death could harm him. He would be the perfect warrior!" "At least according to the legend," she added to her remarks. “Nobody has made it so far, we don't know if it's actually possible.” “You still haven't said your name,” Picollo stated. "Sorry, this is Nartomac, one of the strongest Nartol warriors, commander of the royal guard and former bodyguard of the king," said the veiled woman again and pointed to the slightly larger of the two warriors.The latter only nodded his head slightly, then the woman went on: "And this is his younger brother Trokanl, he too is a strong warrior." She pointed to the other. "The woman behind me is Sincalra, she is the daughter of one of our greatest generals and a great warrior herself. My name is Karanija, I am the daughter of a high priestess and the fiancée of Prince Karatin." especially pride. When she finished speaking, she threw back her hood and revealed her face. She was beautiful, had long, silky black hair, and her black eyes glittered, almost more than the two green gemstones on her forehead. "But you haven't introduced yourselves either," she finally said to the Z group, Son-Goku began again: "As I said, my name is Son-Goku, I'm a Saiya-Jin, but here I grew up on the Earth on. "




After everyone had introduced themselves, the Z group and the four newcomers flew to God's palace.They trained for almost a year and all made tremendous progress, perfecting or developing new attacks. But suddenly, exactly on the day of Karatin's death, the sky darkened, but not like the last time when Dorlak arrived, only over a small stretch of land, but over the whole world. "So the time has come," said Vegeta proudly and in anticipation of the upcoming fight. "We should leave," said Karanija. "But where to?" Trunks asked confused. "Wherever Karatin died, he will no doubt appear there," she said, as if she knew exactly. The group flew as fast as they could to the spot where Karatin had died a year ago. Dorlak and two other warriors are already waiting for the warriors there. The Z-fighters land a few meters away from them and immediately took up fighting positions. "Haven't seen Dorlak in a long time," scoffed Vegeta. "What do you want here, the last time you didn't have the slightest chance against me", Dorlak replied to the Z group."You will be surprised", Vegeta attacked him with these words, Dorlak could only fend off the blows with difficulty although Vegeta only fought as a simple Super Saiya Jin. When Dorlak had caught himself again he countered at lightning speed to Vegeta's attacks, but the latter continued his attack with full force. After a few minutes Dorlak was on the ground and before he could get up again Vegeta fired an energy beam through his chest. "The first one is done, should I take over the others too?" Vegeta asked proudly in the direction of the group. "No, one is mine," answered Goku. "And the other one for me," replied Gohan. "Please as you like, but hurry up," Vegeta said as he stepped aside to make room for them. Goku and Gohan attacked the two warriors immediately, they were apparently stronger because they had no problems fending off the blows. Gohan turned into a double Super Saiya Jin and was able to defeat his opponent with ease, Son Goku had a harder time, even as a double Super Saiya Jin.Son-Goku had to take hard blows again and again, but he still had one trump card up his sleeve. Son Goku began to focus his energy and turned into a threefold Super Saiya Jin. He fired a huge Kame-Hame Ha at his opponent and this dissolved into nothing. After the three warriors were defeated, red lightning flashed across the sky. At one point above the Z-group more and more met each other, finally a huge lightning flashed towards the earth and hit the ground only a few meters in front of the Z-fighters. When the smoke and dust settled there was a black figure from which no aura emanated. "D ... d ... that's him," Sincalra stuttered. "Daark, do you want to convince yourself that Karatin is really dead?" Karanija asked the warrior. "I know he's dead, now it's your turn," countered the figure in an ice-cold voice. He walked towards the Z group and you could see that he was wearing dark gray body armor which almost looked like it was a bone.His skin was dark blue and his eyes were glowing red. He attacked with lightning speed and knocked out Yamcha and Tenshinhan in one fell swoop. Then he fired a ball of energy at Chao-Zu. After the first three Z-fighters had lost their lives, he attacked Kuririn, who wanted to counter with a Kame-Hame Ha but couldn't fire it anymore. Next he decided to take C18, she could fire several balls of energy at him but he fought her off with ease and pierced her with an energy beam. Piccolo fires a devil's spiral at the back of Daark's head, but the attack doesn't even leave a scratch. Daark turns
