Chapter 22: Crooked Cecil

[Authors Note: In terms of romantic relationships, I tend not to focus too much on them. Back then I had to plan to have Kakarot be with Eve, but I just can't do Mark like that.

Mark + Eve

Kakarot + Someone I'll introduce later

Y/N + Erm 👀...someone that isn't exactly a fan favorite [not Amber]

I'm finally back to updating this story, it really is one of my favorites. I don't know when I will finish it but I'd say 50 parts or less. Although, we will see since it's far from over.]

=========

Y/N, Raditz, and Kakarot trained intensely. Each punch, each kick, sent ripples through the air, their power resonating in the emptiness around them. The three warriors were pushing each other to their limits, honing their skills in preparation for the battles that lay ahead.

Meanwhile, on Earth, Mark and Oliver soared through the skies, racing to stop a prison break orchestrated by super villains. Oliver, still new to the superhero game, made rookie mistakes, but Mark's patience never wavered. "It's alright, Ollie," Mark reassured him, landing a comforting hand on his shoulder. "We all make mistakes. What matters is that we learn from them."

Suddenly, the news blared with an urgent report: the Mauler Twins had a new weapon and appeared to have taken out the Guardians of the Globe. Mark's heart sank as he saw the devastation on the screen. Without hesitation, he suited up as Invincible and took off, his determination unwavering. Oliver, equally resolute, followed suit.

Invincible arrived first, engaging the Mauler Twins in a fierce battle. Their frustration grew as they realized they were no match for him. In a desperate move, they launched a nuclear missile. Invincible's eyes widened in horror as he watched the missile streak towards the city. Just then, Oliver arrived, his face a mask of determination. "I'll handle the twins!" he shouted. Invincible nodded and took off after the missile.

High above the Earth, Mark intercepted the missile. With a burst of energy, he diverted it, ensuring it exploded harmlessly in space. The shockwave rocked him, but he remained unharmed. As he floated back towards the planet, he saw a different scene unfold below.

Oliver stood over the lifeless bodies of the Mauler Twins, his expression a mix of relief and horror. Cecil teleported in, placing a hand on Oliver's shoulder. "You did what you had to do," Cecil said, his voice steady. "They won't hurt anyone ever again."

Mark landed softly beside them, his brow furrowed with concern. "Ollie, why did you kill them?" he asked, his voice gentle but firm.

Oliver looked up at his brother, his eyes filled with conviction. "They can't hurt anyone anymore now that they're gone."

Mark sighed deeply, the weight of their reality pressing down on him. "Y/N said something similar," he murmured, his thoughts drifting to their recent training session.

The three of them stood there in the aftermath, the silence heavy with unspoken questions and the dawning realization of what their fight against evil truly demanded.

Y/N, Kakarot, and Raditz soared through the sky, the cool air whipping past them as they flew in formation. The intense sparring session had lasted for hours, pushing their limits and sharpening their skills. Now, as the adrenaline began to fade, they found themselves cruising leisurely above the landscape below.

A commotion below caught Y/N's eye. A man covered in stone was attempting to break into a prison. Y/N narrowed his eyes, recognizing the figure instantly. "I got this," he announced, breaking formation and diving toward the ground with incredible speed.
