Nail’s power exploded out of his body, as his pain of losing Khujar plunged him into a dangerously dark, furious rage. The Namekian warrior fixed his now psychotic gaze squarely on Yujiro, whose face now showed curiosity, and then shock. “That’s not Nail, that’s a demon!” Yujiro said in surprise, before beginning to smile. “I wonder what the demonic Nail has to offer me? He’s clearly more powerful than the ordinary Nail.” Doppo Orochi was meanwhile edging closer to Nail. He was using incredible caution in case the enraged Namekian decided to attack him too. “Nail? Can you hear me?” Doppo asked cautiously, before taking yet another step towards his friend. He noticed that Nail was visibly, and violently trembling with furious anger, and his power level was increasing at a dangerous rate. “Nail, you need to calm down, you have to stop!” Doppo pleaded. “Your power is growing too fast, you’re going to rip your own body apart!” Nail completely ignored Doppo’s pleas for him to stop, and instead fired massively powerful Eye Lasers straight at Yujiro, who didn’t even have time to react before he was hit by the attack, and slammed into a mountain with an explosion. Doppo’s mouth hung open. “You knocked Yujiro off his feet with no effort.” He said, but before he could say anything else, Yujiro, who only bore a small cut on his chest, burst out of the rubble. “Orochi you fool!” Yujiro called out as loudly as he could. “That is not Nail! That is a demon from deep within Nail’s being, and it’s clearly far more powerful than Nail is.” Yujiro then took a fighting stance. “Come at me, inhabitant of Nail’s body! I want to see what a fellow demon can do against me!” Yujiro then flew towards Nail, who reacted by shooting up into the air. From there, he cupped his hands, and began to build his power between them. Doppo flinched as he saw this. “Nail, you can’t be serious! As high as you’re revved, you’ll fatally damage the planet!” He called out as the power ball between Nail’s hands began to grow. Yujiro leered and then laughed. “He’s relying on me facing the beam with one of my own!” He laughed as his hands began to glow. Nail fired his Kamehame Ha attack straight at Yujiro, but instead of allowing the beam to fly straight, he moved it to the side, and curved it around the red warrior. Doppo watched as the Kamehame Ha looped around Yujiro several times, trapping him. “A Vortex Kamehame Ha.” Doppo mused as he backed away. “I’d never even considered that as a possibility. Nail is an incredible warrior, but what will this demon do to him?” Nail closed the vortex around Yujiro, who threw his arms around his face to try and defend himself. As the vortex exploded, Yujiro was hidden from view, however, he did not seem to be harmed in any way, as after a few seconds, he zoomed out of the resulting cloud of smoke, straight towards Nail, whose demonic aura was still burning brightly. Yujiro then vanished from sight. Even Demonic Nail couldn’t follow him, and his power level vanished. However the question was soon answered, as Yujiro reappeared behind Nail, and used a cross-chop attack to slash Nail’s back open in an X shape, while knocking the Namekian to the ground. Doppo saw an opportunity to end this war, and zoomed over to Nail’s side, “Nail, Demon, whoever you are, listen to me.” He said in a low voice so that Yujiro couldn’t hear him. “I have an idea to end Yujiro for good, and this time, he won’t survive.” Nail’s glowing red eyes fixed on Doppo’s face with an intimidating glare. He was listening. “Listen, your power is incredible, but Yujiro is simply toying with both of us.” Doppo explained. “However, if we were to combine our Kamehame Ha attacks, we could force him out into space, where the lack of atmosphere would kill him.” A low, fearsome growl was heard from Nail, as his mouth slowly formed an evil smile. “Let’s do it.” Growled Nail, as the demon possessing him lusted after the imminent slaughter. With that, Nail cupped his hands behind his back, and Doppo did the same, making sure his cupped hands were next to Nail’s. Up in the air, Yujiro called out to the warriors below. “That teleportation trick is going to be very useful. You should thank your friend Khujar for that attack; he’s the one who used it in front of me.” Nail wanted to crush Yujiro’s heart between his fingers, but remained next to Doppo, and powered up their shared attack. Yujiro however wasn’t in any mood to wait, and dive-bombed towards the two warriors on the ground. Doppo and Nail stood their ground, and continued to power up their attack, Yujiro increased his speed, and let out a cry of “You stubborn fools are both dead!” However, just as Yujiro was inches from the pair, both Doppo and Nail brought their attack forward, and the massive beam slammed into Yujiro. Yujiro was pushed back into the air by the force of the Kamehame Ha attack, but then he gathered his fortitude, and managed to push back slightly. On the other end of the beam, both Doppo and Nail felt this, and both gave everything they had. Doppo glanced across at Nail, and saw that the Namekian’s body was bleeding from the effort. Yujiro grunted as he slowly pushed back the beam. “You two idiots will not defeat me!” He said defiantly, as he slowly, but surely, gained ground. “We need something more Nail!” Doppo shouted out, “We’re losing ground!” Nail had nothing left to give, his skin was bleeding, his bones were beginning to crack, and his muscles were tearing themselves apart. Doppo glanced across again, and saw that even with the Demon, Nail had nothing more to give, so he made a decision. Focussing his power, Doppo shouted “Kaio Ken Times Twenty!” The combination Kamehame Ha felt the effect, and so did Yujiro. In an instant, the ground he’d managed to gain was reduced back to zero, and he was pushed back further still. Despite his best efforts, the now silent Yujiro was pushed into the void of space, where the beam carried him off, far away from the planet. Back on the ground, Doppo’s body had been completely destroyed by using the Kaio Ken technique. He had very few bones that were still in one piece, and had suffered several heart attacks at once. Doppo collapsed into a nearly dead heap on the ground. Nail’s condition wasn’t much better, his demonic aura had diffused, and his injuries were clear to see. Deep, bloody gashes ran the length of Nail’s body, and he too had many shattered bones. However, he had the ability to regenerate, so he regenerated what he could with his minimal energy, and stumbled over to Doppo. “We did it Nail.” Doppo said weakly as Nail collapsed by his side. “Doppo, don’t go. You can’t die here.” Nail said as the human master’s life slipped away. “I’m not sure I have much of a choice there Nail.” Chuckled Doppo, happy that Nail was back to his usual self. Then Nail had a brainwave. He knew from his pod that these spacecraft came with a life support system, so he hurriedly reached into Doppo’s Gi, and pulled out his spacepod capsule. Setting the capsule to open, Nail threw it only a few feet away, and the spacepod appeared in a cloud of dust. Nail struggled to his feet, and then tried to help Doppo to the spacepod, but it seemed impossible. Doppo was a dead weight, unable to help at all, and Nail was critically injured too. “Come on Doppo, I’m not giving up on you!” Nail said as he tried to drag Doppo towards his spacepod. Doppo tried to help, but his torn and broken limbs were very little more than useless. However, Nail wasn’t giving up. “We lost Khujar to beat Yujiro; I’m not losing you too!” He said as he gradually and painstakingly pulled Doppo to his ship. Nail summoned all of his strength, and after opening the door, somehow managed to place Doppo in the seat of the craft before his body could give out. Nail’s broken leg gave way as soon as Doppo was in safety, and, now flat on his back in the dirt, Nail used all of his willpower to call out: “Emergency protocol zero two seven. Life support activate. Ship return to home planet.” Nail couldn’t help but smile as Doppo’s ship hummed into life, bringing down the desperately needed life support over Doppo’s face. Doppo only had time to stammer “Thank you.” Before his ship put him in an induced coma and closed the door. The spacepod then zoomed into the murky darkness of space, heading straight for Earth. Nail, still on the surface of Arlia, had passed out from exhaustion. He was unable to move as in his dreams, he heard his heartbeat getting steadily slower. In his dreams, Nail was tormented by voices that he couldn’t see, but only two he recognised. One was Khujar’s, whom Nail could see dying, but as in reality, he was unable to help. The other was a far darker, more dangerous voice; it seemed to whisper to Nail. “This is what you have become, you and I are one being, and I warned you that you were not who you thought you were.” Nail could hear it clearly, and he knew the voice, but he couldn’t place it. “Your mind harboured me since then, and your rage has fed me. My power has grown beyond yours, and I am awake!” Nail’s eyes snapped open when the voice whispered “awake.” Initially shocked, Nail then spent the next ten or twelve seconds screaming out in agony. However, the small nap seemed to have done him some good, as he used his energy to regenerate his injuries one by one, starting with the most serious. Almost an hour later, Nail stood next to his ship, healthy, but exhausted. He turned and stared at the spot where Khujar had been when Yujiro blasted him. “Goodbye Khujar, rest easy my friend.” Nail said, and then he sat in the seat of his spacepod, and closed the door. |
