~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You'd been running through a battlefield of death, the remaining resistance in tow, when you finally spotted Trunks fighting Goku Black. You were relieved the teen was still alive, but a deep snarl still left your lips. Such an idiot, you thought, the insult carelessly floating into your mind, but it was true. Majority of why Trunks was getting beat up, and why people were dying was his own fault this time.

According to Mai, the intertwined Kai's had discovered the hideout while you were out, and intended to blow the place to smithereens. Of course, Trunks being the teen he is offered to give himself up in exchange for the resistances lives. Predictably, the Kai's broke their end of the deal, and you were just in time to witness Zamasau blow up the building. You saved Mai, then begrudgingly did the same for a decent amount of people before taking off in search of Trunks. It wasn't easy because Zamasau was literally raining ki blasts onto you and the others but you didn't give up. You wanted to punch Trunks for his stupidity but he was in danger, so that would have to wait.

Slowing your pace, you hid behind some debris, accessing the situation. You were tempted to just go and confront the pair when a hand pulled you back. Growling, you turned sharply, your fiery (e/c) orbs meeting Mai's concerned inky ones. "(Y/n)...I know your mad but you just can't run out there. We need a plan" the ebony stressed, slightly squeezing your shoulder.

You wanted to brush the younger female off, but you knew she was right. Goku Black was too strong to attack head on, so you had to be smarter about this opportunity. Inhaling deeply, you stilled, contorting your face into one of feign indifference. In reality you were still angry and impatient. How you craved to confront Black, and kill him, the man who took everything from you, and retrieve one of your only friends from his corpse. Thankfully a plan replaced your musing.

"Do you have your bow and arrows on you by any chance?" you questioned. The ebony looked puzzled at your question, searching your (e/c) orbs to see what you were thinking, but it was in vain. Few people could read you at all. "Yeah, I've got it right here" Mai muttered, finally giving up on her inquires. Unlatching the bow from her back, the younger female handed it to you along with some arrows. You loaded the bow, noting how Mai was practically itching to ask you what your plan was. You almost entertained her when a scream pierced the air.

Turning back to the battlefield you and Mai witnessed Trunks getting tossed to the floor. The blue eyed teen was holding his arm in pain, so you suspected that Black broke it. Said being however was standing over him, yellow ki ready to strike him down. Mai yelled something before she started to run toward the pair, but you tuned all that out, more focused on Black.

This was the third time you'd gotten a clear look at the kai, and it still hurt. The wild black hair, the face...it was too much Son Goku. Why'd an imposter have to look like you anyway? Raising your bow, and steadying it, you locked onto your target. Gathering ki into multiple arrows, you released one, watching the silver stream shoot through the battlefield, before hitting Black.

Everything went completely silent as the doppelganger slightly stumbled but you gave nobody time to process. Anger flaring, you reloaded and kept hitting him, managing to embed at least ten arrows in his body. You were relieved that your attacks were enough to hold Black back long enough for Mai to get to Trunks, but it turned bittersweet fast.

Watching the being rip the arrows from his body, your breath hitched when he looked in your direction. You weren't really hidden anymore, but you were still a good distance away, so why did it feel like he was looking directly at you?? Not waiting to find out, you quickly pulled out a knife and charged forward, intent on ending the beings life.
