Two Time Patrollers battled against a pair Time Breakers in the sky far above West City. Powerful shockwaves and explosions rang out as their fight raged on. Hercules was knocked backward,  but quickly caught himself. He breathed heavily and wiped the blood trickling from his mouth. His opponent, a masked man wearing a Time Breaker mask, floated ominously several feet in front of him. 

"Just what the hell are you?" Hercules asked, smiling nervously. "Even at Super Saiyan 2 you're giving me a hard time." He glanced over to see how his partner, Spancho, was doing, but it seemed that the Namekian wasn't fairing any better. 

Spancho charged towards Mira, his purple aura exploding with power. Mira intercepted the incoming blow, then countered with a kick, which Spancho just barely managed to block. His attacks are heavy, the stoic Namekian thought to himself as he repelled the attack. Utilizing his momentum from the counter, Mira pressed the advantage, unleashing a barrage that found Spancho back pedaling. 

Damn it! With a powerful shout, Spancho, unleashed an explosive wave of energy that knocked Mira back into a tailspin. Spancho charged once again, but his haymaker missed as Mira teleported away. 

His eyes darting to the side, Spancho locked onto Mira's new position several feet away from him. "You can't run from me!" The Time Patroller put two fingers to his head and began charging a powerful Makankosappo. Mira's eyes widened as he realized what attack Spancho was charging up. 

"Try dodging this one. Special Beam Cannon!" Spancho shot his fingers at Mira and fired the powerful blast.

Meanwhile, Hercules was locked in fierce combat with the Masked Man, electricity cracking in his golden aura as he pushed himself to his limits. Narrowly dodging one of the Masked Man's punches, Hercules connected with a solid right cross to the face. To his surprise, the man's masked began to show tiny cracks. Before Hercules could follow up, though, the Masked Man kicked him away and turned his attention towards Mira, who had just taken the Makankosappo head-on. 

The smoke cleared, revealing Mira, still floating in the air. One of his arms hung limp by his side, and he was bleeding profusely. 

"Damn it," he groaned, straining to maintain his ground. "I should be stronger than this... stronger than a mere Namekian." Mira gritted his teeth as his vision focused on Spancho. "I will not accept defeat by the likes of you."

The Masked Man moved to aid Mira, but was stopped when Hercules slammed a round-kick into the side of his face. The Masked Man flew backwards, chunks of his mask falling as he covered the exposed portion of his face. "You should keep your eyes on your opponent." Hercules dropped into a fighting stance. "You and I aren't finished yet." 

Suddenly, a time rift appeared not too far away from Mira and the Masked Man. Towa floated through, a sly grin plastered on her face. "OK boys, its time to head home now. Play time is over." 

"No! This is my fight to settle!" Mira tried to argue with his wife, but he was cut off when a overwhelming energy began to filter in through the wormhole. Hercules and Spancho both widened their eyes in shock as they felt the massive ki. 

"What the hell? This energy is absurd!" Hercules was forced to brace himself from the sheer amount of pressure. Spancho glanced towards his partner, then returned his attention back to the time rift. 

"I have a bad feeling about this."
