Niko awoke with a sneeze. It was morning, and he noticed leaves and twigs had fallen on him. He stood, scratching the side of his face, and realized he was itchy. Niko walked back into the house as quietly as he could and took a quick shower. Once he was changed and ready for the day, he walked out, hoping to see the others awake.

Chi and Gicchin were in the kitchen. There were three sandwiches laid out for them.

"Mommy says we get to train with you today!" Gicchin said as he ate.

"Oh, okay," Niko seemed slightly taken aback. "That sounds cool." He grabbed one of the sandwiches and began eating.

Once they were finished they headed out to find Mae.

"Mommy has been training all night. Maybe we can use that to our advantage," Chi tapped her chin.

"I don't think so," Gicchin shook his head.

Niko scanned the area. "No. Your mom is pretty smart," he frowned.

They found Mae in a clearing. A silver aura encompassed her, and she let her energy rise even further, turning to rose gold.

"Woah," Gicchin marveled.

Niko tried to sense Mae's energy, but couldn't. He was in awe of the form. "I guess we're going to our max today," he noted. It took him a moment to sustain enough energy for Super Saiyan Four, but he managed to secure it faster than the previous day.

Mae held the form and pushed it even higher before collapsing on the ground. She spat blood on the ground. "Well that wasn't as bad as last time," she laughed and turned to Niko. "So you ready to train?"

Niko's eyes widened. "Hey, are you okay? The blood can't be good." He remembered the form when Mae fought against Niya and its similar affect on Mae.

"It's fine. I'm still trying to get the hang of this new form," she assured, wiping her mouth. "Alright, so I want all three of you to come at me." She powered up to Super Saiyan. It was all she could manage for the moment.

"Okay," Gicchin powered up to Super Saiyan Three. Chi's energy was slightly higher, only she was enveloped in a bright red aura.

"Let's go, then!" Niko narrowed his eyes and took off towards Mae in a flash.

Mae grinned as she brought her hands up to block. Chi and Gicchin followed Niko. The two of them adjusted themselves for Niko. Mae was on the defensive as they three of them kept punching and kicking. She noticed Gicchin dropped his guard on the right, so she kicked him into Niko before punching Chi to the ground.

Niko steadied Gicchin, quickly checking if he was alright, then backed away. As he ran towards Mae once more, he made several energy orbs and slung them towards her. He tried his best to not hit the twins.

Mae smirked and knocked the orbs directly into the twins who blocked the incoming attacks. Mae went straight for Niko, going on the offensive.

Niko swore in another language under his breath, but faced Mae head on.

As Mae went in for an attack a red energy ball hit her from the side knocking her back.

"You okay, Niko?" Chi asked, sending multiple energy punches at Mae.

"I'm fine," Niko frowned. He then took off after Mae again, teleporting behind her for a knee to the back.

Mae stumbled forward, and Chi and Gicchin held their hands up. "Big Bang attack!"

"Shit," Mae swore bringing her hands over her face.

When the smoke cleared she was at Super Saiyan God. She blasted the twins back and began attacking Niko faster than before.
