*cuts to after a couple days, outside of the front gate of the residence* *dragon ball super romantic evening theme plays*

Nin: *walks alongside Tori towards the gate, seeing Kobura standing with his arms crossed in front of his ship* So, you still have your craft? Didn't think any survived the attack awhile back.
Kobura: I made sure to take good care of it. *looks back at Nin* Before we go anywhere though, you have three conditions.
Nin: *sighs, lowering his head* Yeah yeah, you said them already bud… *raises a finger for each condition* No turning into Nightmare, don't show my face to the townspeople, and to tell you all everything that's happened since we saw each other in full detail. Sounds about right?
Kobura: *nods* Yes. Thank you. *grins* Freezer's gonna love to meet you, big brother. Please, don't ruin it for him.
Nin: I won't.
Tori: Although our introduction was… unexpected, I am glad to have helped you all today in any way I could. Whatever you do, be careful out there next time. Ohohohoho!~
Kobura: *bows* Yes, master… I'll make sure we are safe.
Nocha: I'm coming too. *suddenly behind Kobura and Nin, making Kobura jump from the surprise*
Kobura: AAAH—!! *growls* D-Don't sneak up on me like that! *processes what she said* Wait, what do you mean?
Nocha: I'm coming with you two. *crosses her arms* I've learned all I could here. I think it's time I explored a bit around the galaxy, looking for more ways to become stronger. Maybe then, I can find some other Saiyans out there.
Nin: . . . *turns away from them and looks at the ship, staying silent*
Kobura: *nods* That sounds for the best, if you're so sure. Be warned! *smiles, walking towards his ship* My little brother is a bit of a dumbass! Haha!
Nocha: *scoffs* Wouldn't be the first one. *looks over at Tori with a contemplative expression*
Tori: *smiles wholesomely, bowing to her* You have grown well, my student. I am proud of y—
Nocha: *quickly pulls him into a tight hug, resting her head on his shoulder while holding back tears* You can be honest with me…
Tori: *hesitates, holding back tears as well before hugging her back, a single tear streaming down his cheek* Please be safe, my strong little girl… I have always thought of you as my own…
Nocha: *let's out a shaky sigh, hugging slightly tighter* Same here, grandfather… *pulls away from the hug, grinning with a wholesome expression* I promise to be safe, and keep you updated.
Tori: I would love that. Ohohoho!~
*they both back away and bow to each other once again, before Nocha walks over to the brothers*
Nocha: Alright… I'm ready.
Kobura: Let's get a move on! *opens the door to the ship and walks in, Nocha follows suit while looking back at Tori, then Nin stops just as he's about to enter*
Nin: Hey, pops.
Tori: Hm? *raises his hand, catching the blue dragon ball* Ah. You still had it?
Nin: Didn't wanna forget. *looks back at him over his shoulder* Sorry for causing you trouble. I'll make it up to you sometime, alright?
Tori: *nods* I will remember that, Nin. Travel safe.
Nin: *walks into the ship, waving back casually and bonking his head on the top as he entered before the door closes* Ow—
*shows the ship hover into the air, pushing the leaves on the trees around from the wind it's pushing out, then suddenly flies away in the blink of an eye out into space*
Tori: *watches them leave for a moment longer before turning around, walking back to his estate* It seems after all this time, I am alone again. No… They will surely visit this old man again! Ohohoho!~ *it pans up to the sky as he still talks, showing a stream left behind from when the crew left* Budding seeds in bloom… Spring brings the heart of the youth… A new life to start.
*cuts to Freezer and Blue's house, showing Kobura's ship finally landing outside and releasing steam from the vents, then the door opens on the side* *dragon ball super like that cloud theme plays*
