Leaving a trail of her azure Super Saiyan Blue aura in her wake as she flies. You then turn to Marron, flying down towards the ground. “Mind helping me out? We need to take these Time Rings, can't leave them to these guys.”
“Uhh, r-right.” Marron replies, following you to the ground where the pile of parts from that one Zamasu still exist. Where you start tossing legs, bodies and heads aside, looking for the Time Rings. Knowing that they are no doubt in here somewhere, probably at the bottom, you keep tossing bleeding body parts aside. Marron, while making a few disgusted noises does the same, being a bit more careful not to drip the gods' blood on her as she does. But then you find one, still attached to the arm. And so you pull it up, taking the ring off the finger.
“Here, this is what they look like.” you say, tossing the ring to your granddaughter underhand. She catches it, looking at the ring as she turns it over in her hands. “Should be two more.”
“Got it.” she replies, you both digging deeper into the pile. Seconds tick by agonizingly slowly, seconds turning into a minute before your granddaughter then shouting. “Got one!”
“I found the third. Only one left.” you say, throwing more and more pieces of carved godling aside. You and Marron make your way through the piles of parts, getting closer towards the 'middle'. Then as you throw a half-torso, right arm still attached aside, suddenly Marron shouts. You look up as she flies over, reaching down where that body part was, plucking a ring from the ground and holding it up proudly.
“That's four!” she says, beaming.
“Good work. Now, let's get out of here.” you tell her, your granddaughter taking to the air.
“I know the way, follow me.” she says, you nodding, lifting up into the air and following her. She leads you back to the large, dome-like building you'd seen upon arriving here, then follow Marron as she turns, dropping from the air to the ground by Mechikabura's portal. “We're here.”
“Let's go, that won't hold him long!” Meloka shouts, Chaya hot on her tail and even Krillin as well as the three all fly down to you. “Hun, you and Marron go first. I'll bring up the rear.”
“Understood.” you tell her, and without hesitation step forward into the portal. Where, once more, reality twists and distorts, the order of reality breaking down into nonsense once more. And, once more, you feel <span class="mu-i">something</span> turn its attention on you.
