Xenoverse Chronicles: The Stories Of Poutine, Menma, And Cargeso

Time to go Shopping! Zamubosi shows his true colors!

"Let's get you some clothes first." Auberne said, leading Zamubosi along to the shopping district. The fusion let himself be dragged along as the Saiyan teen had him try on outfit after outfit, until she found something that worked. "Simple and attractive." She said, marvelling her work. "Turn around for me?"

"O-ok...." Zamubosi said nervously. He was sporting Blue jeans, sneakers and a Legend of Zelda T-shirt he had picked out himself. As he turned, Auberne gasped, spotting his snow white, fluffy tail.

"You have a tail!"

"W-well yeah. Orobosi was in a saiyan body when he fused into me." Zamubosi said. "And he still had a tail."

"We need to get you in cat ears at some point....." She mumbled.

"Huh?"

"Nothing! Let's go get you food then! We can come back later for a full wardrobe." Auberne said smiling, her tail wagging.

They managed to grab a few fast food items, and Zamubosi chowed down, his tail wagging happily.

"Hey uh.... Thanks again. For helping me out." He said.

"No problem. Part of it was my duty..... But part of me felt you weren't like the Zamasu everyone knows, wanting to kill mortals and stuff.

"Kill mortals? Why would I want to do that?"

"I dunno. I guess you thought they were evil or something."

"They aren't." He said firmly. "After all..... You wouldn't chop down an entire orchid of apple trees because one or two apples were rotten, right?" Auburne looked at the fusion in shock, not expecting that type of reasoning. He was totally right too. As far as she knew, Zamasu observed a small handful of Mortals, and condemned them all.

"Hey.... Would you mind Explaining that to the Zamasu here someday? He needs to hear that more than I do."

"I don't see why not." He said, taking a bite if Nachos. "God damn these can't be heathy, but they're soooo good."

"Well, I figured you could stand to gain a bit of weight. You're kind of a stick right now." She said poking him.

"Yeah. Back home, there wasn't a lot to eat. Zeno burned a lot of our crops across the multiverse in the War."

"What was it like?" She asked. "Being in a war?"

"Orobosi was only a kid when it started up. He was born a Kai, actually. The whole reason why I think mortals are wotrth saving is because of the saiyan Kakarot, and what he did for Orobosi, without even thinking twice."

"What did he do?" She asked, looking at him. Zamubosi took another bite, then sighed.

"The angel Sour was on our tail. Kakarot's job originally was just getting me.... Him.... from one base to another. He had the dragon balls too, which was lucky, and he planned on giving them to Dr. Gero so he could make a wish to help speed up the production of the Android Cell. But it didn't end up happening that way. Both of us knew Sour could appear at a moment, and Kakarot wasn't sure we would make it to the base in one piece. He knew I was scared. I knew he was too. So we talked. He asked me what I liked to collect. I told him I loved collecting bugs. He did too. He said we should trade some time. He just stopped walking after a bit. He told me exactly where he kept his collection in his home on Sadala. Then he summoned Shenron, switched our bodies, and told the dragon he had no more wishes. The dragon balls flew off and we continued until Sour found us. Kakarot told me to run. And Sour erased him. He didn't realize I was his real target. So I ran to the base and gave my report."He said solomnly. He looked at the nachos and sighed, forcing himself to finish them, knowing he was still famished.

"That's...... Horrible...... I'm so sorry." Auberne said.

"It's fine. It was years ago. But I'll never forget what he did. What all of them were willing to do." They sat in silence, with Zamubosi finishing the good food. "Hey. Why don't we forget all the sad stuff. Show me around a bit. After all, this is my new home."

"Yeah. Yeah sure!" She said smiling
