"Open, Gate of the Maiden: Virgo!"
"Yes, Princess?" Virgo asked Lucy politely.
"Can you help take care of these, things?" Lucy asked. Virgo immediately dug underground. She popped up a few seconds later.
"All done." She said as the earth fell out beneath the creature's feet. "Now, will you punish me, Princess?"
"NO!" Lucy closed Virgo's gate.
"Ice Make: Ice Cannon!" Gray blasted a dozen of the creatures away.
"We can't keep this up," Cana shouted.
"We have to, Ice-Make: Lance!" Despite his efforts to hide it, even Gray was showing signs of fatigue. Suddenly, three of the creatures jumped him from behind. Gray tried to cast, but he was out of magical energy.
"Wood Make: The Dam of Shy Love!" Laki was able to knock away the creatures just in time. "Your welcome!" She shouted as she keeps fighting.
"HEY EVERYONE, GET DOWN!" Goku shouted from above. He had a large Kamehameha charged.
"Take the man's advice, hit the dirt!" Cana yelled.
"HA!" Goku was able to destroy a good amount of the creatures. The rest retreated through the barrier.
"Get back he-" Natsu tried to run through the barrier but was shocked.
"Is everyone ok?" Goku asked, concerned.
"It appears so," Erza said, relieved.
"Over here, it's Wendy!" Elfman bellowed.
Wendy was unconscious on the ground.
"What happened?" Erza said, her tone showing signs of panic.
"Those things jumped me," Wakaba said, sitting nearby. "She was healing me when one woke back up and bit her." Erza wasted no time and inspected her wound. The creature's teeth left deep marks on her shoulder. A strange, green, liquid oozed from the wound.
"Poison! Quick, get me some bandages!" Erza shouted.
"Wait, give her this," Goku said, passing Erza a Senzu bean. Erza quickly fed Wendy the bean.
"She might be under for a while from the poison, but she'll be ok," Goku said, squeezing Erza's shoulder reassuringly. Erza stood and faced Goku.
"Goku, if you weren't here, we might have lost her." A tear formed in her left eye. She then, to everyone's surprise, gave Goku a hug. "Thank you."
"Uhm, don't mention it," Goku said, blushing.
"If you two are done," Vegeta interrupted. "We still have a 2,500-foot problem to deal with."
"Right. Elfman, take Wendy back to the guild." He nodded and gently carried Wendy away.
"I leave for one overnight job, and the whole place goes topsy-turvy. What's going on!" Gajeel yelled.
"Calm down, We'll tell you on the way back," Erza said. By the time Erza and Goku finished catching Gajeel up, they had arrived at the guild.
"Ok, so the gist is that someone's possessed, Levy," Gajeel said confused.
"More like they've swapped brains, I think," Goku said.
"Well then, let's go get her!" Gajeel said as he munched on some nails.
"We will Gajeel, but we have to think of a plan first," Erza said calmly. "Pull a table up and grab a map!" She shouted.
"Iga, take him down to the pods. That should speed up his regeneration." Shiripa said.
"Yes, mam" Iga supported Ino on his shoulder
"Treble, I'm sorry I snapped like that."
"It's ok," Treble said happily.
"Now, good work to all of you," Shiripa said to her followers as she walked back to her throne.
"With all due respect Master, why did we withdraw? We could have won!" Kohga said, frustrated.
"Yes, you might have been able to beat Titania, might. However, we were outgunned. Those Saiyans were holding back most of their power." Shiripa said firmly.
"By my estimates, about 87% of their potential," Alssa added.
"How do you know?" Bass asked. Alssa pulled out a vial of yellow powder.
"Do you know what this is?" She asked.
"Pixie dust?" Treble smacked Tunder on the back head.
"It's a special powder I developed that allows me to access one's memories once inhaled. I sprinkled a bit on all of you so your opponents inhaled it during combat."
"So how does that help," Tunder asked.
"Training starts later, and I'll tell you then. For now, there's a pile of books in the next chamber, get reading." A tremor passed through the tree. Shiripa smiled.
"About time she woke up."
"I have an idea." Lucy finally said. "Virgo could dig us a tunnel underneath the barrier."
"So that's our way in, but what about the army of wolf-things that are probably inside," Gray said.
"We can make a diversionary attack, but it would be extremely dangerous," Erza said.
"Another engagement like that and you could lose everyone," Gohan said.
"I agree with Gohan, everyone is drained. We'll take a day to revise our strategy and rest. Everyone stays here tonight." Erza announced.
"Bisca, Alzack, you're on watch. Let us know if you see anything too strange in the tree." The two nodded and scurried out the door.
"Hey Vegeta, want to go a few rounds to get some training in?" Goku asked.
"Fine," Vegeta grunted.
Peppira gorged herself on the food Kohga had gathered.
"I see not much has changed." Shiripa chuckled.
"It's been three thousand years, I'm hungry!" Peppira snapped.
"WAIT! It' been three thousand years!" Tunder cried.
"I told you that when you woke up," Alssa sighed.
"You did?"
"Yes! Now, get back to your studies." Alssa said sternly.
"I hope it's worth it," Tunder muttered under his breath.
"How long do you think until your body is restored," Peppira asked Shiripa.
"Don't know. While using this planet's magical energy instead of its life force did speed up your awakening, your bodies were still intact. Restoring mine, I don't know. Either way, it will happen in time." She said.
"I do have some news for you Peppira." Alssa said. "There are two Saiyans here." Peppira stopped mid-bite.
"Seriously?"
"Yup, what's more, they both appear to have become Super Saiyans."
"It can't be," Peppira clenched her fist.
"By digging through their memories, it appears they've also become Super Saiyan Gods." Peppira smashed the table to pieces.
"Yamoshi was bad enough, according to what my father told me, but two,"
"I would teach you how to do it, but you don't meet the standards Yamoshi set. However, I can teach you the Super Saiyan forms." Alssa said as she looked through her notes. Peppira stood up and cracked her neck.
"Well, let's get to it then."
