>>5959935Opening your eyes, you see that she's holding some sort of rectangular bar over your head, smiling down at you.
“Eat this. It will restore your strength.” she says, you not questioning it and biting into the bar. Surprisingly, it has no taste, no flavor whatsoever as the bar crumbles in your mouth. You barely have to chew, your saliva breaking the bar down so it barely takes any effort to eat. Which you do, consuming the entire bar. “Well done. Five minute break, then we'll be back at it again.”
Saying this Towa rises up, heading over to the door to the decompression chamber and walking out. Leaving you and Freeza alone.
“Dammit. I knew this would be diff. Icult. But I never thought. A gravity chamber. Strong enough. For my Golden. Form. Could exist.” Freeza manages to get out. You just grunt in response, trying your best to recover. When she says five minutes, you know that's all you will get, so focus instead of talking on getting ready for the next round. But as you and Freeza lay there, a familiar warmth begins spreading throughout your body. The aches in your muscles, the strain in your body begins fading away. And after four minutes you're strong enough to get back up to your feet, looking yourself over curiously. Freeza, seeing you up does the same, looking from himself to you and back with a confused look on his face. You both stand there in silence a moment, when you hear the door opening. Turning, you both see her walking back in, unsurprised that you both are on your feet. “Excuse me. What was in that you gave us? I know my body, and I should not have recovered that fast.”
“Observant. Those restoration bars are made with Senzu plant extract.” she says. “Not quite as potent as the beans themselves, but they do quite well for restoring the body. Now, let's go again!”
This process repeats over and over, four hours on, five minutes off, bar of that Senzu extract to restore your strength in between. You lose track of how many times this process repeats, not even sure if it is day or night as you press on. But eventually it stops, the process coming to an end as she deactivates the chamber.
“You both did well today. You have completed the first day.” she says, not giving either of you a bar this time as you both remain on the ground, powering back down to your previous forms. “So, either of you plan on giving up? Or will you stick through it until the end?”
You know she's more talking to Freeza than you, as she knows you don't have quit in you. But as you both look to Freeza, arms and legs trembling, he manages to push himself upright and look her in the eyes. Despite still towering over the diminutive former emperor.
