Dragon Ball LoF

Pull Ourselves Together

*it shows a massive barren landscape, everything is ashes and dust, the only source of light coming from the fires scattered around what little remains are left* *shows Kobura sitting in the middle of the rubble, holding Azura's dead body* *dragon ball super to regret theme plays*

Kobura: *his body is trembling, veins prodded across his body, tears streaming down his face and on to Azura's bloodied figure* N-No... No no no nonono... Azura...
*Freezer stands across the fire, fighting a distorted nightmare version of Xeras, both of them letting out war cries in their battle*
Kobura: Why can't I move...? My legs... They won't move... M-my body... I can't... I can't...
*Freezer's roars sound like a beast, echoing in Kobura's mind as he holds Azura closer to himself*
Kobura: I want to move... I need to move... I'm... I'm a hero too, aren't I...? *he growls desperately, before seeing his body slowly get covered in stone* W-What...? What's happening...?! What's happening?!?
*from the rubble, hands suddenly clutch out towards Kobura, grabbing on to his body and squeezing at him desperately; a voice echoes in his head over and over around him*
Child's Voice: You were my hero. You were my hero. You were my hero. You were my hero. You were my hero.
*blood begins to flow out from the cracks in the ground, covering the entire floor in a scarlet sea, putting out the fires until all that's left is darkness, broken whenever Freezer and Xeras clash strikes*
Kobura: *begins to hyperventilate, his body breaking apart into pieces as he watches Freezer fight for his life, lightning flashes to show Freezer beating Xeras into nothingness* I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so-
*suddenly, lightning strikes down on Kobura at the same time he wakes up from bed, making him fall out of the bed in a cold sweat, screaming in fear*
Kobura: AAAAAAAHHH!!!! *he curls up, clutching at his chest and trying to get ahold of himself again* *as he struggles to get up, someone knocks at his door*
Blueberry: Kobura?! Kobura, are you alright?! I'm coming in! *she opens the door to see him sitting up slowly, taking deep breaths* Kobura...?
Kobura: Haah... H-aah... Haah... *closes his eyes, it pans out to show his face looks drained of all color with bags under his eyes* *JoJo's Bizarre adventure diamond is unbreakable silence theme plays*

Blueberry: Kobura... You're having nightmares too, aren't you? *she checks his forehead for his temperature, then wipes the sweat off of his face* It's been two months, and even now... Here, let's get you up.
Kobura: N-No, no need. I can stand. *he forces himself to stand up, hoisting himself up on his bed frame* I... I can stand. I can stand...
Blueberry: *looking at him with a worried pitiful stare* We need to do something. Anything. Anything to pull us out from these sleepless nights. No one can rest... All we can think about is that monster, Xeras.
Kobura: *as soon as he hears Xeras, he clenches his hand against his bed frame, shattering where he's holding and making him fall to the ground again* G-gh-!!
Blueberry: Eep-!! Right right, don't say his name... I'm sorry... *she helps him stand back up, letting out a soft sigh* Come on, let's get some breakfast.
Kobura: . . .
*it cuts to later when they're in the living room, Kobura sitting on the couch lost in thought while Blueberry is doing the finishing touches on some bacon and eggs*
Blueberry: *flips the eggs on the pan, looking back at Kobura right after* We can't stay like this forever. Day in and day out, being so seclusive... Freezer and Azura need to get to their senses again.
Kobura: *crosses his arms, looking up at the ceiling before closing his eyes* Kronus didn't take it well either, didn't he? Blaming himself over everything as well.
Blueberry: The issue we all have is that we all want to take the pain for each other. Some more than others... *she pouts, turning the stove off and grabbing plates for the food* Usually you don't take this much of a hit, but this time was different. Azura... The earthlings...
Kobura: *gets flashbacks of the hand from the rubble, making him clench his head* Agh...
Blueberry: *she walks over, placing his food on the table in front of him* If you want to talk, I'm here, Kobura. Please... I need to give us a future to look forward to. I miss the bickering you and Freezer go through, miss Azura's laugh as she defends both of you, and I miss Kronus giving us his kind words...
Kobura: I miss it too. What can we do, though? After what they went through... *he lowers his head* ...That's exactly why we need to cheer them up, right?
Blueberry: Freezer is being... overprotective. Azura has been lost in thought. It's a difficult situation.
Kobura: Hmmm... *takes a bite of the egg* It's a hard one. Maybe Kronus could actually give us wise words?
Blueberry: Let's hope so... How's the food, by the way? *cute head tilt, placing a finger on her cheek*
Kobura: *he finally grins slightly, swallowing the bite he took* It's amazing as always. Thanks Blue.
Blueberry: It's my pleasure! Now, let me take the other dishes up to Freezer and Azura. Hopefully this little bit can help them out, right...? *she gets up, holding two plates of food, and smiles meekly*
Kobura: ...Yeah. *he notices her concerned smile, making him look away* Let's hope it helps.
*cuts to Freezer, curled up in his bed underneath the covers, his room is pitch black besides the light coming from under his door*
Freezer: . . . *clutching a pillow in his hands, trying to sleep, but can't stop thinking of that day* *he hears knocks on his door, making him growl* Who is it...?
Blueberry: It's Blue! I uhhm... I made breakfast! Can I open the door?
Freezer: Can I see Azura...?
Blueberry: Ah... I'm sorry, but you know what Kronus said-
Freezer: Then no... *curls up more, closing his eyes again, before his stomach then growls really loud*
Blueberry: ...Freeeeeeezer-?
Freezer: Fine. Just... slide it on the floor. Hurry.
Blueberry: Alright, alright... *she slightly cracks the door open, prompting Freezer to suddenly jump out of bed and rush to the door* Huh?!
Freezer: Is she alright?! She's not hurt, is she?! Answer me Blue!! IS SHE ALRIGHT?! *trying to break through the crack in the door, before Blue flicks his forehead making him stumble back into his bed* Agh...
Blueberry: Yes, she's alright! I told you, no one's going to hurt her. *she places the food down, closing the door right after* We promised, and intend to keep it that way. You'll only upset her if she sees you like this... *the legend of Korra Korra confronts tarrlok theme plays*
