>>5258833She surges upright from the ground and swings at your friend, who doesn't even flinch at the incoming blow despite the power gap. Turles doesn't power up or try to dodge at all, choosing to take the hit straight to the jaw while still in his base form. But to everyone's surprise, and even his own, he isn't sent flying. His right foot slides back a bit, bracing himself as he absorbs the punch. She's shocked by this, pulling her fist off his face as she takes a step back.
“Wh-What?” she asks, shocked that her punch hadn't sent him flying, much less damage him. Curious, you turn to one of the Guard, who's activated his scouter. No doubt wondering just how strong this newest near-death experience has made him.
“T-Twen...Twenty six million?” the Royal Guards says, his face a look of pure shock as he takes a step back. Wait, Turles is that strong now?
“No way.” Komand'r says, taking another step back from Turles. “How? When did you get this strong?!”
“Did you forget? We Saiyans get stronger every single time we recover from a near-death experience.” he tells her, and clenches his fists. Then his golden aura blazes up around him, and his power surges. “And you've been beating me to the point of near-death for months now. But no more!”
Turles continues powering up, Ascending as sparks begin dancing around his body and dwarfing her strength. Komand'r takes a couple more steps back from him, her entire body language radiating fear.
“You've overplayed your hand, Ko.” he says, but then gives a small, almost-sad smile. “But you're not hurting my daughter, ever again.”
Komand'r surrenders at this point, turning to King Vegeta with none of her previous fire and agreeing to leave the planet without a fight. He nods, and his Royal Guard surround the woman as he returns to his scouter. He whispers something into it before putting it on, and your eyes widen as you remember something else. Beetz on the other end heard everything. And if she recorded it....
“You won't keep my daughter from me forever.” Komand'r says as she's led from the room. “Ticho will be mine!”
And then she's lead from the medical bay, King Vegeta turning to you. He gives a nod, you returning the gesture as he leaves as well. Leaving you, Nappa, Turles, and Dr. White in your room's medical bay. Nobody says a word for several moments, then as you sense Vegeta and Komand'r leaving the ship Nappa turns to Turles.
“You did it!” he shouts, grabbing both of you in his arms jovially. Showing no signs of being damaged from Vegeta's earlier blows. “This calls for a celebration!”
