“Just like my power. I don't always have to have it at one hundred percent.” you tell them both. “But having it available is always better than not having it.”
“I-I get it.” Tomi says, looking up at you with a mixed expression. “I think so. What do you say, Tatsu?”
Who is quiet for a few moments, pushing himself back up and walking over to his sister. Offering her his right hand, which she smiles and takes in her left. And as they hold hands again, both close their eyes a moment. And suddenly you feel it, both of their individual powerlevels suddenly spike up. Not by any incredible amount, but it is enough to be noticeable. He then helps pull her upright, the two turning back to face you.
“Thank you.” they both say together, before their voices fall out of sync again, Tatsu a quarter-second ahead of his sister.
“-For everything.”
“Of course, I'm always here for you.” you say, powering back down then bending over and wrapping your arms around them both, holding them to you. They're a long way from healed from what happened to them, but maybe... Maybe this is a good first step?
“If you two ever decide you want to do fusion again, I'd like to see it.” Kazuma says, completely killing the moment. “Would love to pick it up sometime, then I'd be able to teach-”
But as he's talking, suddenly you sense a powerful surge of energy. A familiar dark power radiates, you dropping the twins and instantly going back into your Berserker God form.
“Meloka!” you shout, calling to your wife as you launch yourself into the air.
“Right behind you.” she answers, also ascending into her divine Super Saiyan God form.
“Dad, what is this?!” Chilli asks, not recognizing the power. But you do.
“Darkseid.” you call down. “Everyone, protect the village. Meloka and I will deal with him.”
You then turn to your wife, who nods, you both then blasting southward towards the tremendous power signature. For the first time the Time Patrol isn't ruining the celebration, like HELL you'd let this bastard do so!
