>>5657210Maple teleports right in front of you, now in her Mahou state. She touches her index fingers together, then pulls her arms back. “Fiss-!” She pokes them at you, and you’re initially bewildered by what she’s doing. That stops when you hear the second part, and you feel your body freeze up. “-ion!” You stop trying to power up and push her away, but it’s too late. “HA!”
And… you’re Peppa again, split apart from Videl, to the shock of the both of you. “Wha…?!” you exhale, patting yourself over. You… you’re fine, just. Not fused anymore.
“How did…?” Videl looks over herself as well. “So… there really is a technique that can defuse people?”
“Yep!” Maple declares proudly. “Managed to travel back to Metamor a few times, they did say such a thing existed. Just… way more complicated than it looks.” She rubs the side of her head. “The fact that you two were leaving your fused self open like that gave me the opportunity to finally test it out.”
You rub the back of your neck. “Was trying to see if we could, you know, access something beyond what either of us could individually.”
“So… is there a reason you had to go through that form to do it?” Videl inquires.
“It helps tremendously. I can better regulate my Ki and Magic in that state, and Fission can use a bit of both. It’d take much longer without Mahou, even if the two of you were willing to separate.”
You nod. “I see… something tricky to use in combat, then. Well, still, this was rather productive training! What do you think, Videl?”
“Yeah, looks like we’ll be able to make the most out of our fusion if the need ever arises.” she replies with a grin, and the two of you bump fists. “…Still might wanna learn that Fission technique though, Maple.”
“Oh absolutely.” you agree. “We were getting an idea of how to try to separate ourselves without it, but that’s definitely gonna speed it along.”
She winks. “It just might. But that’s for later. For now…”
Gohan appears near you, handing you and Videl a couple sticks of takoyaki. “Lunch time!~”
